I ventured back to the location to do some tree measurements in order to get a size estimate on the White Bigfoot. Since six years have past, I had to take my 2018 measurement and subtract the approximately growth of six years to get the 2012 width of the tree. I selected a tree that was in clear view and close to the location of the White Bigfoot.
The tree was 8 inches when measured in 2018 last weekend (03/03/2018). Looking at the US Forestry services estimates for tree growth in the Appalachian Mountains, for Maple Trees, I was able to determine that the tree grew an average of .2 inches a year. Doing the math, I was able to calculate that in 2012, at the time the video was taken, the tree was approximately 6.8 inches wide. Doing an exact scale comparison, I determined the approximately width of the White Bigfoot's head was an astounding 17.6 inches. The average human head is only 9.4 inches!
I also determined the height of the White Bigfoot's head was 21.4
inches. I could use this calculation to determine the approximate height of the White Bigfoot.
