Current Big Foot Hoax Proves P. T. Barnum’s Adage ‘There’s a Sucker Born Every Minute’

Politicians Rely On Gullibility To Get Elected And There Appears To Be No Shortage Of It.

The current big foot hoax recalls one of the most famous hoaxes in American history. It was a 10-foot (3.0 m)-tall (3 m) “petrified man” uncovered on October 16, 1869 by well diggers in Cardiff, New York. It became known as the Cardiff Giant and was the creation of a New York tobacconist named George Hull. Hull, an atheist, decided to create the giant after an argument with a fundamentalist minister named Mr. Turk about a passage in Genesis that stated that there were giants who once lived on earth.

Hull had the giant carved from a block of gypsum, treated it with chemicals and acids to age it and buried is knowing it would be found by the well diggers He charge thousands of gullible people 25 cents to view it, and turned down an offer to buy it by sideshow man P. T. Barnum who then made his own copy displaying it for some years

Friday’s hoax seems to be the contrivance of the alleged Vegas con-man named Carmine Thomas Biscardi who staged a News Conference in Palo Alto, California but didn’t produce the body. Failing habeas corpus the crew displayed photographs of a Halloween gorilla costume draped with animal entrails., and some DNA results for something having nothing to do with s big footed anything.

It is not entirely clear how the Georgia men Matthew Gary Whitton and Ricky Traylor Chuck Dyer got wrapped up with Biscardi. Almost humorously Whitton and Dyer are chastised by the “legitimate” Big Foot research Organization (BFRO) as illegitimate.

In what became a letter day Orson Wells “War of the Worlds” hoax - albeit that was unintended Biscardi intentionally perpetrated a Bigfoot body hoax in 2005 on George Noory’s “Coast to Coast AM” (”C2C”) radio talk show. The show attracts 15 million late night listeners across the USA and Canada including many of the tinfoil hat wearing crowd. During this extraordinary radio hoax in the summer of 2005 Biscardi claimed to have a Bigfoot body.

He held the massive C2C radio audience in breathless suspense for a few nights, offering updates on “his team’s” progress with a bigfoot body, all while encouraging the audience to subscribe (for $14.95 per month) to his remote web cam, where they might possibly spot another bigfoot at a location in Northern California … it was a scam.

Noory smelled out the hoax, demanded proof and Biscardi confessed it was a hoax and scam.

Today’s media has so-far not even done the most perfunctory research into the background of those involved including phony claims of being an Army Ranger,prison guard of Biscardi’s history and record.
