Squaching in the backwoods... Big Foot?

Kubrick definitely had the technology to pull off a believable moon landing. There are many NASA images that seem to show evidence they were shot on a movie set.

I'll have some of what you've been smoking.

I'm sure Bristol C will chime in to give an opinion.

Yours is an 'all-original' OP and a thought-provoking one. +

Is it possible that some earlier Bigfoot sightings was based on this factor? +

Since you asked.

While I've never experienced the weirdness of a 'Bigfoot' sighting during my ventures into a number of PNW forests, one thing still perplexes me. The last recorded film of Bigfoot is a grainy reproduction from the late 1960s and to date, there haven't been any recent sightings. With nearly everyone carrying a cell/smartphone these days, shouldn't we have a more contemporary photo/record, taken either by a hiker, camper or hunter who may have accidentally wandered into Bigfoot Country? Maybe even a 'selfie'.

Whether this is just a hoax or native legend, a Rolex-sponsored expedition could set the record straight. It might even give rise to an entirely new sports/recreation model. Perhaps something along the lines of a Yeti-Master or 'Deep Forest' Explorer. Add some ceramic and you'll have a waiting list.

I would like your opinion regarding post #7 please. Do you think Apollo 11 moon landing was fact or fiction?

While I'm familiar with the 'conspiracy theory' pertaining to the Apollo 11 moon landing, I never gave it much thought. As far as it being fact or fiction, we have to consider the (1) possibility and (2) probability based on a number of factors like the available technology at the time, human risk considerations, the politically-based PR exigencies of the 'space race' between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. and Hollywood staging opportunities.

To be honest, I haven't the foggiest one way or the other. Like most of us, I watched the lunar landing on TV as a kid and accepted the accomplishment at the time. If it was staged, then the joke's on countless millions. On the other hand, it's a pretty remarkable feat given the 'analog' nature of the instrumentation and guidance systems back in the 1960s.

Going to have to toss the ball back in your court on this one. Perhaps others can chime in with the documented facts pertaining to this historical (or staged) event.

In context of the competition with the USSR, if there was the remotest possibility the landings were faked, the Soviets would have pronounced that to the world. There's no way the US could have hoodwinked all the visual and electronic sensors of all the other nations that were monitoring the event in real time.

I am not given to conspiracy theories. But can you name me one other place that the US has put up a flag but has not also put up a McDonalds? I can't.

LRO has snapped many photos of the various Apollo landing and crash sites.

I hope Bigfoot is real. I need to believe in something.
