LAWTON, OK. (THECOUNT) — In what might be the most 2024 thing to happen yet, Bigfoot has apparently decided that if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em—or at least, join TikTok. A video that could make even the most skeptical among us do a double-take has emerged from the woods near Lawton, Oklahoma, showcasing what appears to be Sasquatch casually leaning against a tree like it’s waiting for its Uber.

The clip, brief but breathtaking, offers a clearer glimpse of the mythical creature than we’ve ever seen, unless you count that time Bigfoot was selling beef jerky. This time, there’s no mistaking it; if this isn’t Bigfoot, then someone’s got a Halloween costume that’s way too good for this early in the season.

The TikToker, now possibly the most famous person in Lawton (sorry, local celebrities), described the encounter as the “scariest moment” of their life. But let’s be honest, if Bigfoot was really trying to scare anyone, it probably would’ve danced or something.

And here’s a thought: if this is Bigfoot, it might want to rethink its location. Lawton isn’t just any town; it’s right next to Fort Sill. If the military gets wind of this, Bigfoot might find itself enlisted, or worse, volunteered for some top-secret government experiments. “Operation: Hairy Recon” anyone?

Skeptics might say it’s just someone seeking their 15 minutes of fame or prepping for an early Halloween. But if it’s a hoax, it’s a hoax with Hollywood-level costume design.

So, whether you believe in Bigfoot or think it’s just a guy in a gorilla suit, this video has at least given us all a reason to look twice at the trees next time we’re out in the woods. And who knows? Maybe next time, Bigfoot will do a dance challenge. #SasquatchShuffle, anyone?
