Speaking on the Planet Tyrus podcast, he explained: &#8220;When she saw the thing, she didn&#8217;t know what it was, she thought it was a person &#8230; Her boyfriend sent them to us and said could this be a sasquatch &#8230; <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;Our guy in Syracuse goes out there and investigates its stature and finds out it the things stands only at around 4 foot nine &#8230; So that stature and the strange part about the face, body stature and form for something that would be that tall. <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;We thought that would be such an unusual person, someone who would stand out in the community &#8230; if we just get these photos out there &#8230; Somebody will be able to tell us that they recognise him or they know who this person is. We&#8217;ve had these photos put there, they&#8217;ve gone out to hundreds of thousands of people and nobody is stepping forward&#8230; <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;This is a very small person who looks very distinct.&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nHe went on to add the sighting may not have been a Bigfoot, explaining: &#8220;There are legends of things called little people that are supposed to live near swamp there&#8217;s more native american legends about them than there is modern legends of them &#8230; <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;These are distinctly different to Bigfoot characters &#8230; You might think it&#8217;s a human if you see it from a distant but only when you take a picture and zoom in &#8230; do you realise this doesn&#8217;t look like a normal human. It could be explainable &#8230; <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;Those stories are in Alaska, in Wyoming and commonality is these things are seen near swamps.&#8221;<BR><br \/>\nHe added: &#8220;It is strange on top of strange &#8230; &#8220;<BR><br \/>\nKelly also appeared on the podcast and admitted the strange sighting left her spooked, saying: &#8220;It really took my by surprise &#8230; as I was snapping the second picture the thing turned its head and looked right at me which really creeped me out &#8230; I got a really creeped out feeling &#8230;<BR><br \/>\n&#8220;The first thing I thought was: &#8216;What the f*** is going on. Why is there someone in this pond?&#8217; <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;When I got there i was alone there were no other cars in the parking lot &#8230; When I looked at the pictures I was twice as freaked out &#8230; <BR><br \/>\n&#8220;The only thing I noticed was the arms and the arms seemed to move more like an ape than a person &#8230; Like a really weird, awkward swinging movement. &#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2026-09-01 11:00:08 Bigfoot investigators have been left baffled by a sighting of a human-like creature wading through a pond in New York state.
