Yesterday Ricky Dyer posted a photo of his FJ with the wrapped trailer that will carry around a multimillion dollar body. That's if you happen to believe he actually has a real dead Bigfoot that has been taxidermied,but more on that part later.
As you can see, the vehicle and trailer are brightly decorated with Rick's logo and over-sized head. He seems to be promoting himself more than the "discovery" itself and he still uses those misleading television logos to prop himself up.
The trailer is a single axle 12 ft. model, so it doesn't leave much room for his DIY Bigfoot coffin. There won't be much room inside so how are people supposed to view the body? Do they file through in an orderly fashion and out the back door, or is Dyer going to roll out the rickety box at every sideshow along the way? What about inside lighting for the trailer/ display case?
As usual, Rick flies by the seat of his pants and never thinks ahead, nor does he think things through. There are logistical considerations for towing around the discovery of our life time. Will Rick have a business license? What about insurance for the body? What about Lily and the kids? Originally Dyer was supposed to have a big diesel pusher and travel in style and then at least, his family could go with him on the road.
In my opinion this is a poorly conceived idea and it's money well wasted. I feel sorry for whomever financed this "I Told You So!" tour. The title of the tour is laughable and childish.
At the very least, this advertising is a step up from the adverts of 2008. Here are a couple of rare photos of Rick's SUV from 2008.
Robert Lindsay recently put out a post on Bigfoot and it included tidbits about Rick.
"Rick Dyer story. Apparently Dyer is still going to reveal his Bigfoot to the world on or about December 31, 2013. He has scheduled a pay per view video on Youtube, but there is no date on it yet.""Rick Dyer’s home broken into by haters. Haters apparently broke into Dyer’s apartment and completely trashed the whole place. Apparently either these folks or other haters were also caught stalking Rick and his wife. This is why Rick moved out of the apartment very quickly afterwards. This is also the reason why Rick issued his “Quitting Bigfootery” video that everyone took to be an acknowledgement of a hoax. This incident freaked him out and made him want to step back from the scene to say the least.""Man invades Dyer’s apartment, fight ensues. A hater apparently invaded Rick’s apartment some time back. Rick was home at the time and confronted him. A fistfight then ensued. I do not have details on this incident. As you can see, Rick’s haters have been getting pretty out of control."Beyond Highbrow I highly doubt any of this took place because Dyer is prone to making up excuses for his continued delays. Rick says he has police reports. If so, where are they? Why wasn't this all over the local news? Freezer Boy is an attention whore and you can bet if this actually happened, his mug would be on camera. Once again Dyer provides no evidence or proof. Same old story.
Let's talk about the taxidermy. Rick stated in a recent radio interview that the body was mounted. If this is true, who paid for the work? Rick was questioned further but claimed ignorance on the process. You can listen to the interview
here. Jump to the 33:45 mark.
I looked up pricing to have a full body mount of a Grizzly and it doesn't come cheap. Keep in mind, the forms are mass produced.
A full mount Grizzly runs between $2,500 - $4,000. Now factor in the cost of a custom made form for a Bigfoot and the price would go up considerably.
I looked up chimera taxidermy so I could get an idea for how much a fantasy piece would cost. I'm not saying Bigfoot is fantasy by any means, I just wanted a feel for pricing on custom work.
I found one site that produces smaller works that start at around $1,500.
Here is a link to
FANTASY WORKS.
Two examples of their work:
If a person has money and an imagination, nothing is out of the realm of possibility. I'm sure there are artists out there who could make a very convincing Bigfoot taxidermy.
I would still like to know how the body was initially preserved for so long before it was mounted Rick still won't answer that question because even he knows there is no rational explanation.
Rumor has it that all of Team Tracker got to see Hank and I can only assume it was in the form of photos. I'm not aware of any members in Las Vegas. The reveal date has been postponed yet again so we'll see if Dyer pulls through for Jan. 5, 2014 or delays this farce again.
People really need to think this through. There is much more evidence of a hoax than there is of this being real and my position has never changed. After one year of blogging about this hoax and following the story from the beginning, I am still convinced this is a hoax, and it's a pathetic one.
