PTC News Desk: An ordinary hiking trip in the Parallel Forest of the Wichita Mountains in Oklahoma took an unexpected turn for a man who captured what many believe to be one of the clearest sightings of Bigfoot.
The nine-second video, which has received over 1.7 million views on TikTok, shows a big, shadowy figure moving through a deep forest, according to the New York Post. Although the video is rather blurry, the hiker defined the experience as the "scariest" of his life.
In the footage, the hiker can be heard gasping as he captures what he thinks is a bipedal figure in the distance sniffing flowers and glancing his way.
"Scariest moment of my life, and I really think I caught a f-king Bigfoot on camera in the parallel forest. I was just doing some sightseeing and enjoying the day when I saw something in the distance. I'm still shaking as I type this," the hiker captioned.
Despite the excitement, others dismissed the video as another hoax or a misidentified animal. One user commented, "Brings back memories of Harry and the Hendersons," referring to the 1987 film about Bigfoot. Another person overlooked the sighting, saying, "That's a costume. There's no bones or muscle movement in those feet."
In contrast, other viewers indicated strong beliefs in Bigfoot's existence. One reader provided a detailed narrative, linking the creature to various Native American traditions: "Bigfoot honouring songs have been with the Yurok for thousands of years... We just forgot as a society."
