Bigfoot Hoax – Pics and video show how the Bigfoot hoax in Georgia was pulled off by a couple of rednecks trying to hype their Georgia Bigfoot Trackers business.
The Bigfoot hoax started back on July 23 when Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer tried to convince local Atlanta television and newspaper reporters that they had a dead Sasquatch, but every reporter and TV station pronounced their claims a hoax.
On their website, bigfoottracker.com, the duo claim to be waiting on the results of “DNA Analization” and then held a press conference August 15th in California where they had zero real evidence to support their claims.
Previously, Whitton and Dyer had posted videos on YouTube (since removed) that purported to show an interview with a Doctor of Pathology who verified that the Bigfoot was real.
Then it turned out that the “doctor” was really Dyer’s brother.
The two Georgia men pulled their hoax by purchasing a $499 Bigfoot costume, putting dentures in it’s mouth, scattering some pig intestines on it’s stomach, then displaying the mess in a freezer as “proof” they found Bigfoot.
An earlier version of the photo in the video clip below shows the Sasquatch creature covered with ice cubes while in the freezer…lol!
The Bigfoot Field Research Organization officially described Whitton and Dyer as “idiots” and “clowns,” and warned their claims are just a scam to hype their business.
Whitton is currently on leave from his job as a sheriff’s deputy because he shot himself in the left hand while responding to an armed robbery call in July.

Messages left for Whitton and Dyer early Friday on their Bigfoot Tipline were not returned.
They have so far offered three different tales so far about how they came to find the creature:
In one, the animal was shot by a former felon, and the men followed it into the woods. In a second version, they found a “family of Bigfoot” in North Georgia mountains. In the third, the two were hiking and stumbled upon the corpse with open wounds.
