LOL, I never believed he existed.  There is too much hunting out here and nobody has ever shot one (intentionally or not).  So, I think its just one of those fake things

Now, the one (can't think of its name) like Bigfoot thats supposed to live in the mountains near China-there is some scientific reason to believe it may exist, at least thats what I have read.

When you have things like dolphins in rivers, it is equally possible that you have Bigfoot.
He is most likely (in my opinion) part of a family of apes (or bears) who has adapted to living in the snow for long periods of time.

Yeti actually. It's got various names too.
For example, Canadians and Americans will refer to it as the Sasquatch or Bigfoot.
Australians will refer to it as the Yowee.
And Nepalese will refer to it as the Yeti.

While I am a skeptic to the supernatural, I do beleive there is some truth to the Sasquatch.
I also find quite hilarious that it's illegal to hunt them in North America.

Although I have never heard of that law it doesn't suprise me.  But, with the kind of folks that live out here-if someone saw one, I'm sure it would be shot and
quote possibly stuffed buy the proud hunter.  But, I really don't think they are here.  I firmly believe that if they really existed there would be more than just hazy videos and footprints-there would be something more tangable (like a body).  From the so called "evidence" it appears (if it does in fact exist) to be some kind of a primate and there are no large primates in North America.  We do have a lot of bears (specifcally black bears) but again from the "evidence" a bear of some kind doesn't seem likely.

Ol' DB Cooper has certainly risen- or fallen- into the pantheon of Great Mysterious Legends, like Sasquatch and Nessie.  The way I remember hearing it: he did in fact go out the rear airstair door (I've also seen that technique used, somewhere, for recreational parachuting); he had done his homework on the 727, and told the crew to hang everything out and slow her up as much as possible before his jump (maybe I have that part wrong...?). I kinda like to think he survived- that was a very creative way to disappear after a heist, if an inconsiderate and irresponsible thing to do.
