Bigfoot Gorilla Chest Beat Comparison

Courts Griner writes “In 2014 while on expedition to Broken Bow Oklahoma, myself and fellow researcher, recorded a very loud rapid beat sound from one or two coves away on the hill side from our position. At first I mistook it from automatic gun fire though I didn’t hear echos following it. A few years later another researcher had asked if I had heard a Bigfoot beat its chest? He explained that it sounded exactly how Gorillas do. It has same sound similar to a wood pecker but as if it was from a 6 foot woodpecker based on the loudness of it. I found that intriguing cause that is what I thought when I heard it. I then listened to several recordings of Gorilla chest beats and put it with the documented footage from that day to compare sounds. I found the comparison very, very similar. We believe we may have recorded a male chest beat from across the cove 3 or 4 times that morning as we filmed.”

What do you think?

    I think they recorded a woodpecker, unfortunately.
    I have heard the ‘gorilla chest beating’ sound in the SHNF and it had more of a hollow, strange sound to it…. something you recognize as different.

    I could very well be wrong tho.

    You know looking back at it, at the time I heard it (2012) I thought the closest sound was a gorilla beating it’s chest but it could have been a tongue pop of sorts.

    They both have a similar type sound (can’t think of the correct words to describe the sound).

    I agree! Sounds like a woodpecker to me. I do admire that those guys are out there trying. I have seen sasquatch twice and never when I am sitting on the couch!

    I have heard many woodpeckers in my life, including the Pileated growing up in the Great Lakes region of Michigan. I suspect the woodpecker was much closer to these guys than they thought. Also that gorilla making same noise may have been dubbed in.

    Very cool. I love to observe nature and it is amazing a tiny bird can scare you to death with the sounds they make and how tremendously loud they can be. I have seen and heard woodpeckers often, now I will think twice…hmmm
    I had to get rid of my bird feeder because of the unwanted visitors I got, bears, ground hogs, turkeys being too close to my house so I don’t see the birds as often.

    Bigfoot May beat their chests but that was a pileated woodpecker drumming on a tree and in fact you can hear it call. Sorry, but this is a case of mistaken identity.
