DATE:

TIME:
3.00 P.M.
LOCATION:
Schouweiler, LUXEMBOURG, rue de Schouweiler
(Luxembourg is between France and Belgium)
TERRAIN:
Wooded
OBSERVED:
I decided to go out for a walk, I drove to a big forest (in Schouweiler).
There are no streets or noise near the forest. I had to walk 1km
to reach the forest. I took my cam with because I wanted to film
the nature in that great weather. I started to film, then I made
a few picshots with my cam. After some time I decided to go home
because I was really deep in that forest.
My
cam was turned off so i wasn't ready to film. First I heard the noise
of breaking branches, I looked around but i didnt see anything. Then suddenly
I saw, 'it'.
First
it was a moving shadow in the distance. It looked like another
person walking around. I approached carefully. It was about
2m big, very huge, dark haired (I think it was black or very dark brown).
It didn't make any noise and there was no particular smell.
I
only saw his back side, i couldnt see his face clearly. It was moving
away from me, not running, but still fast with great steps. I felt like
paralysed, unable to move or to think clearly. My cam was turned
off and still on picture mode, I quickly turned it on and made that snap
( look at the picture).
After
that snap i think another minute passed, 'it' was nearly disappeared in
the far forest.
I
switched my cam to film-mode and tried to film it. I started to film
3 times because i needed to stop several times to follow it.
The
whole thing is filmed with a far zoom. Because of that zoom its not
filmed very straight. I tried to walk while filming and I didnt look
through my cam because i prefered to watch that creature with my own eyes.
After the third time I filmed it, I couldnt follow anymore, too much trees.
I couldnt see it anymore. I tried to find any foodprints but the
ground was too dry.
ACTIVITIES
OF WITNESS(ES): I am the only
witness
DESCRIPTION
OF CREATURE: It was
about 2m big, very huge (not skinny), dark haired, like black fur.

I didn't see clearly his face and feets.
OTHER
NOTES: I have 3 mpegs and
2 pictures of it.

I
sent a short e-mail to Mr. Franky and this was his reply to my asking
for
more information:
hi
again
here
are some answers.
it
happened the 10th august 2001 .
for
any more details about the encounter look at your own page :P(i already
send u the whole story where and when it happened!)
No
life hasnt changed because of the video(why should it?) i only developed
interests concerning bigfoots(i had a look at many other reports on pagey
in the www)
so
my name is still franky hansen, 20 years(not married yet) and i am still
studying.
i
was a few times back to the place but i didint see sth special(i
went back to make photos of the place where it happend).
many
sites said it was a hoax, they ignored me or sent some nasty mails.(erik
berjor was really angry and sent 2 mails every day!) some other sites showed
interest in it.
there
was one main problem: my name and my email adress,
lots
of ppl said it is a joke because of my bond007@XXXXX email adress (but
i already have this email since 5 years, i am a 007 fan,)
other
problem was my name, they told me that years ago there was a man called
frank hansen who had an iceman, so they didnt believe me becasue i have
the same name, (some asked my id so i sent them a copy!!!)
ok
thats all
hope
it helps a little
bye

The G.C.B.R.O. had some outside
work done on the stills and video.
Below is the photo from the work
done. It is evident that this is a HOAX!
The supposed creature is a hiker
with a backpack on. Thanks to Patrick T. for
his enhancements on this photo
and also to Joe Heinan for continuing on with what we initially started
with and had his enhancements done, to the point that
you can clearly see the water bottle
on the side of the hiker. Those are available on Joe Heinan's Minnesota
Bigfoot site.
(Click the above link to go there)
If you watch the video closely
you can see the subject start to move when
the video first starts and you
can see the royal blue of the backpack stand out, as the sun hits it and
it reflects the color towards the cameraman.
I noted this when I first seen
it. Now I ask the viewers of this site,
to look at the photo below, then
go view the video for yourselves.
Joe's site has more in depth analysis
of it since he spent quite a bit of
time working on this, so please
visit his web site for more info and the
pictures of the water bottle enhancements
etc.
The G.C.B.R.O. does not endorse
or stand behind hoaxes or hoaxers. This field has
enough black eyes from these kinds
of people, and this is another one that is no
different. We are in search
of the truth. And THIS video/photo does not have any truth in it!
