The presumed Bigfoot didn’t stop and never looked at him as it crossed the road in front of him.TWO LADIES, A DOG, A LIGHTHOUSE AND A POSSIBLE BIGFOOT ENCOUNTER ON A BEACH IN MICHIGAN"It had coarse, matted, and greasy looking long brown hair covering every part of its body I could see," wrote the witness who went on camera with an investigator a few days after the sighting."Its legs were shorter than its torso and its arms literally hung down to right around knee height.
