Bigfoot Sighting in Pennsylvania Leads 'Skeptic' to Believe in Existence of Sasquatch
57-year-old hiker John Stoneman and his girlfriend claim to have photographed bigfoot after a curious creature caught their eye as they were driving around the woods of Bradford, Pennsylvania.
"I'm a skeptic myself, I'm not a believer, but this was not a bear and you can see fur on it," Stoneman told Caters News.
The pictures were taken roughly two weeks ago in Kinzua State Park as they took the pictures from the edge of the road. He was only able to snap a few shots before he was forced to drive off.

"This was 200 yards from the road, it was too narrow for me to be able to pull over without stopping traffic but I got as many pictures as I could."
"It's wider at the shoulders and tapers down. Whereas a bear is bigger in the middle and stands differently with its paws out, this was standing like a man, like a Bigfoot," he added.
Stoneman revealed that a few days before the sighting there had been a "Bigfoot calling contest" which was part of a local festival, which has led some in the area to believe that the creature was lured from the protecting of the forest.
Some have said that the object in the picture is nothing more than a natural formation to which Stoneman disagrees as he has revisited the site since the picture was taken.
"At first some people have discredited it and said it's just a root ball at the bottom of a fallen tree, but I've been back to the exact spot and there is no root ball there. We do have black bears, but they are considerably smaller than this, it was standing about seven-foot tall," said Stoneman.
"It looks more like a Bigfoot than anything else, I've already had organizations asking me to send them copies for verification."
