The Patterson-Gimlin film, taken in 1967 in Bluff Creek, California, is one of the most famous pieces of evidence claiming to show a Sasquatch, or Bigfoot. It features a large, hairy figure walking through the forest, captured by filmmakers Roger Patterson and Robert Gimlin. Despite extensive debate, the film has sparked both belief in the existence of Bigfoot and skepticism regarding its authenticity.
