(Hoax) The Leaping Yeti Video

In late 2012, a video clip began making the rounds showing a "leaping yeti" allegedly shot somewhere in the Ural Mountains of Russia shows what appears to be a large hair-covered creature bounding through the woods away from the camera bearing witnesses. Despite what many believe, this video was an outright hoax, as the supposed Bigfoot was actually a man wearing a white hat and blue shirt with gray pants. The original video is no longer available due to it's higher resolution that allowed that to be discovered.

This is a lesser quality video from 7 years ago that was reposted after the original video dropped off YouTube.

Note: For those who think that this isn't a hoax, be very aware that when Doctor Meldrum and Doctor Bindernagel went over there about 6 to 7 years ago, they were exposed to numerous hoaxes by the Russians at the Hominoid Symposium they were invited to speak at, as it was more for tourist attraction than any real research.
