I have studied many  sighting reports, eye witness accounts and spoken with many people who have encountered sightings and have concluded that the foot size of a Bigfoot will go into it's body 5.135 times thus allowing me to create this chart for footprint size X 5.135= Body Height.

6.04 was the original number I came up with but then I found the original interview where Roger Patterson said he thinks we has off by a foot on the original statement he made about her height, So now I had a 12 inch difference to deal with. From there I started studying sighting reports where tracks were found (this went on for over a year) and I went over 100 sightings until I finally found my break. 6.04 is the number used for a female human foot. this I discovered when I measured Honey's foot, the human male number is 7.351. Bigfoot however growing much larger then a human grows at a different rate then humans, afterall a 2 year old Bigfoot may be 4-5 feet in height, much different then a human. So I went outside and stepped in the mud 3-5 times. People dont sink like Bigfoot and our heels dont completely bury in the mud and are actually exposed, meaning if my foot was 9.750 from heel to toe only 9.250 of my foot will make an imprint, So I went back to the photos of the footprints I found in the woods that were shallow on dry dirt and found that 5.135 is a much better number to deal with as not as much of the foot leaves an imprint. If bigfoot is naturally bigger then it must have a deeper foot and the same rule must apply that not all of the heel sinks into the ground. look at a print in mud and you will see the heel area slanting backwards, it isnt straight cut. meaning that all of the heel hasnt sank into the mud. only the part they need to step on sinks. So then I compared sightings where the same creature was spotted in dry and wet conditions and found that in wet muddy conditions the prints left were almost 2 inches longer then the prints found in dry conditions. Thus I ended up with a 9 inch difference in height so that is why my chart has a 9 inch difference in sizes.  The same goes for my footprint which was 9.125 in dry dirt but 11.005 in the mud which would have made me 2 3/4 inches taller. My chart still needs tweeked a bit but it's close enough for me.
