Fifty years ago today, Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin visited northern California in the hopes of spotting Bigfoot and wound up capturing perhaps the most famous film footage in paranormal history.
Known colloquially as the 'Patterson-Gimlin film,' the roughly minute-long scene purportedly shows the legendary Bigfoot in remarkable detail as it walks directly in front of the camera.
Over the last five decades, the footage has captivated and mystified viewers and has become an iconic symbol of Bigfoot featured in countless television programs and documentaries.
In fact, there's little doubt that nearly every person reading this article has seen the footage at some point in their lives and, for many paranormal enthusiasts, on more occasions than they can probably count.
