We are fascinated by Bigfoot when we read about him in books or see him on TV—but what would you do if you came face-to-face with an 800-pound creature in the wild, and discovered that the terror is so overwhelming that grown men break down sobbing and can never bring themselves to hunt in the woods again?

IN THIS EPISODE: We are fascinated by him when we read about him in books, or see him on TV or in movies. Bigfoot has become bigger than life with every paranormal and cryptozoology enthusiast gobbling up every bit of news that comes out about the furry mysterious creature. But what would you do if you came face-to-face with one, in real life, in his territory? Tonight we look at Bigfoot. Sasquatch. The Yeti. Whatever you want to call him, he has found fame worldwide in both paranormal circles and cable TV shows. We’ll ask what he is, what he is not, what evidence has been collected, the interesting take on our fuzzy friend that Russia has, and more.
