BBC NEWS | Americas | American 'Bigfoot' is monkey suit: "The claimed recent discovery of Bigfoot in the US state of Georgia has turned out to be a hoax - it was a rubber gorilla suit in a block of ice.

Two men said last week they had found a 2.3m-tall (7ft 7in), 226kg (500lb) corpse of the legendary ape-like creature in a wood in June.

Two researchers bought the 'carcass', encased in ice, for an undisclosed sum."
