Interesting article about the hoaxster who made up bigfoot on the occasion of his death. Turns out the footprints were a fake, and he may have had something to do with the films, too.

Like the crop circles, I'm fascinated by this stuff - not because I think there's anything in the slightest bit odd behind it. I think that in both cases you have a small group of dedicated pranksters setting this stuff up - almost as performance art - and then just sitting back and watching the hullabaloo. It's fascinating when one of them comes clean and you can learn some of the stuff that's been happening behind the scenese.
