- TriviaShot with a 16mm Cine Kodak K100 with a mobilgrip handle. 952 frames of bigfoot were shot, amounting to approximately 39.7 seconds (at 24 frames per second). It was strongly rumored that special makeup effects wizard John Chambers created a suit that was used in this film, as part of an elaborate hoax. Both the filmmakers and Chambers himself have denied this accusation.

Featured review
Genuine, one of a kind.
Genuine, not fake, film of a Sasquatch. ONE OF A KIND film that has never been repeated. An utter million-in-one-shot lucky fluke that Patterson happened on this creature while out shooting a documentary in the open in broad daylight. He did not even have a telephoto lens on the camera (unfortunately) as he was prepared for shooting scenic views. Contrary to the utter nonsense one poster left here, the film has NEVER been shown to be a fake NOR did Patterson ever confess to having faked it. There is no deathbed confession. Claim by a Hollywood effects person to having faked it has no merit. The reality is that, when the image is blown up and the central portion of the image is enlarged, a frame-by-frame viewing shows substantial muscle action in the legs of the Sasquatch. How does one fake that? Especially as it was shot in 1967 and filmed by a guy who possessed meager financial resources - and no known connection to Hollywood special effects personnel.
