    No witness reports, physical evidence, trace evidence, photographic evidence is proof. Even if one was standing on my foot, I wouldn't believe it because I am just a guy who has never been in the woods and my mind is very small and closed to anything outside normal existence being real because my mind couldn't cope with that kind of reality..,

      Typical "I know everything better" asshole. Bet never left the boundaries of NYC. Wonder how would he explain Jeff Meldrum's collection of 300 footprint casts? Or ThinkerTunker's analysis of Patty's walking/biomechanics.
      Too bad he's a not a hiker. Imagine him coming face to face with a Sasquatch but no one would believe him. That would be poetic justice.

    Nothing against Todd.
    But he said don't even breath on biological evidence.
    And yet there are people convicted of a crime, just from a cigarette butt, that was on the ground.
    Or even in a garbage can.
    Come on now! Something just not right .
    As long as you have the DNA of the collector. You can determine that it's different from the specimen.
    If not there is a whole lot of people that should be released from prison. Lol.

    Great video, disappointing to hear 100’s of samples tested with zero dna of unknown origins discovered. I sure hope Doug Hijiack’s LMS2 produces a positive hit.

    I took an Anthropology class in college and Prof was a bit of a wack job - good Prof but a wack job none the less. First he tells us not to make jokes, and the next three lectures was on cosmology - like, how hard is it to define a term? About a 1/3 of the way through he is telling us about people who were born with tails; now, you have to know me, but I said, "Wow, talk about monkeying around!" The class went dead silent, and he looked at me like I had just hit him in the head with a baseball. I thought he just kidding about that humor shit. Like I said, he was good Prof, I got straight A's. However, the best I can tell is that the field is one you have to "get with the program" or go find something else to do. Personally, I think the field is a dead science - there I go with the humor again.....

    he said he has found No DNA that wasn't something explainable like coyote , bear, or human. The problem is, bigfoot is a human. So no big surprise that he found that. I guess if it is not an ape it can't exist. lol

    Did mr. Disotell ever tested samples that resulted in human-contamination? If so, he probably thrown away real evidence without even knowing it. And if he ever succeed having "real" unknown DNA, which scientifical journal would publish his results? How much his career would be affected? Sometimes brilliant man are not that smart...if you know what i mean. Anyway , love your channel & much respect to you! a fellow believer from the north of the boarder⚜. ✌

      Dear Idiot: (1) human DNA in samples: he said he did, in the video (2) contaminated DNA is worthless and is thrown away (3) if he had solid biological evidence of an unknown animal any journal would publish the paper (4) he'd be a superstar in his field if he discovered an unknown animal. Learn something real before your brain turns to jelly and you're drooling out of one side of your mouth, if that hasn't happened already.
