He's actually pretty good, although some videos are better than others.
This is a sequel to one of his very first, years ago, with a higher definition copy to play with.
One thing he doesn't show very well in this video, is just how tall the figure is when it finally stands up at the end. It's already as tall or taller than an average guy (proportionately) when it's hunched over. His original analysis from back around Halloween 2013 can be seen here (along with his stabilization of the full source clip):

One might see more swamp apes that way, admittedly... :buck2:
Although mainly pink ones..................
Been a while since I posted a Thunker analysis.
The Mad Tosser is a favorite.
It's important to keep in mind that TT is conservatively underestimating how large the figure and the tree trunk is.
From a key comment:
QuoteThis is in no way a 12 foot tree. I run 10 foot sticks of 1/2" conduit all the time in the field as an electrician for many years. Once you are used to knowing what 10 foot looks like you can guesstimate just how long something is based on its distance. That tree is over 20 foot long easy. and way more than 5" in diameter. I would guess that tree is more likely 8 or 9" in diameter. So what is the distance and weight of it now? That has to be incredible.
QuoteAccording to woodweb a 20 foot aspen tree with an 8" small diameter and a 9" large diameter would be 306 lbs. And it was thrown at least 3 lengths which would be 60 feet. Wtf...
See what happens when you close RPFW? SEEEE!!!
??? Seems like pretty standard Enigma category stuff. O:-)
I just worry where some of us will wander off to without a padded room.
I will not argue with the enigmatic nature of the topic... :bd:
Just as Halloween approaches, Thunker returns with a new angle of analysis on the famous Patterson/Gimlin film: why can't Patterson catch up while sprinting for 45 seconds (off and on) against someone walking away at an obviously casual stroll for a minute?
Seems like that should be a no-lose contest against someone in big fake feet and a bulky costume (with artificial fat and muscle layers, and forearm extenders which somehow break the wearer's elbows to shift them down-arm) and a mask changing human face ratios, in a rugged stream-wash with lots of fallen trees.
But "Patty" walks away with the clear win. :o
