Patterson Footage Analysis by Dr. Montagna, 1967

Analysis on a less known analysis of the Patterson Film points out highly flawed logic and bad reasoning that played an important role in dismissing this film as fake. Let me show you why this 1960’s attitude never gave this film a chance.

Dr. Montagna’s analysis of the Patterson-Gimlin film in 1967 is a fascinating piece of history. His critique played a significant role in dismissing the footage as fake, largely due to flawed logic and reasoning. For example, he argued that the creature depicted was simply a man in a poorly made monkey suit. However, this claim has been countered by experts in costume design and primatology, who point out unique anatomical details that are difficult to replicate.

The film, shot on October 20, 1967, by Roger Patterson and Robert Gimlin, remains one of the most famous pieces of Bigfoot evidence. Despite skepticism, it has yet to be convincingly debunked after more than 50 years.
