Goodbye, fuzzy images of Bigfoot. Hello, high definition images of Bigfoot … well, it's something, and it's purportedly on Virginia's Intracoastal Waterway.
The pictures were posted to YouTube by user "Randy O'Neal," along with an involved story of O'Neal's first interaction with one of these monsters 25 years ago.
According to the text in the video, the new picture was snapped June 28 by O'Neal's father. As of July 3, the video had been viewed more than 650,000 times in four days.
Text in the video reads, "Feel free to pause, copy, zoom, dissect or whatever you need to do to prove this fake."
Crazy? Well, this isn't the first sighting of Bigfoot in the commonwealth.
