Man Dressed as Bigfoot for a Hoax Is Run Over and Killed

An apparent attempt to stage a Bigfoot sighting horribly backfired when a man dressed in furry camouflage was struck and killed by two cars on a Montana highway, police say.

Randy Lee Tenley, 44, of Kalispell, Mont., was pronounced dead at the scene near Flathead Lake in northeastern Montana after the stunt late Sunday night.

“This is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. Really,” Montana Highway Patrol Lt. Col. Butch Huseby tells the Los Angeles Times.

Tenley had donned a Ghillie camouflage suit covered in thick foliage-like material that’s used by hunters and military snipers and dashed onto the two-lane road around 10:30 p.m. Two cars, both driven by teenage females, slammed into him.

A friend who was with him told police about the intended Bigfoot hoax. Authorities are investigating whether the men had been drinking.

    Got to feel really bad for those two girls, having raised three, I know they are not just freaked out, but heartbroken, whether it was his fault or not.

    I feel sorry for his family as well but this is the kinda stuff that keeps this subject from being taking seriously

    I’ve noticed that all we ever hear of are Male casualties of their own stupid human tricks, it is showing us that woman just might be the smarter sex of the human race.

    -As I am never hearing of women blowing themselves up or setting themselves ablaze or racing out into approaching cars at night and becoming ‘human footballs’ due to the ‘human Dah factor’.

    In my above statement, I didn’t mean for it to sound insensitive to Mr. Randy Lee Tenley’s tragic death and no disrespect meant towards his family and loved one’s. the Gist of what I said stand as written, ‘woman seem to be far more practical and not as recklessly risk taking’. As it seems we never hear of women being found in compromised positions, [unless it is in their decisions of adultery, which in that case men and women seem to be as equals]- oh wait there was that one news event where a pissed off wife chased down her cheating adulterous husband in her Mercedes benz and ran him over twice.] but speaking upon creating Sasquatch hoaxes and rushing out in front of oncoming cars upon a dark night in camouflage gear, that seems to be a huge stupid owned by Men.
