Err. You have to ask the BIGFEET believers that question. You might look up the definition of "challenge" for a start. :boggled:

Here's a posting tip: if you can't spell, use a spellchecker. Otherwise, people might get the wrong idea and think you're an imbecile.
 
Why don't you ask Randi himself? His email is prominently posted.

Or maybe even have this thread moved to the Million Dollar Challenge sub-forum so that people could *gasp* help him figure out how to apply for the challenge? No? :confused::confused::confused:

I thought I was asking him norm doesent he read his own site ? I guess it doesent matter about the last million dollor challenge he made about the paranormal then if he doesent even read peoples posts . he has no intention of paying off on that now thats a scam folks .
 
Why don't you click on the links for "$1M Challenge" where you can find both the answers to your questions and email addresses for Randi? Or are you just here to troll?

Hi Creekfreak!

Mr. Randi very rarely visits the forum, he's busy with more important stuff.

I think you should also be made aware that to prove bigfoot is real you need more than a photo of a helicopter. So -

Where's the bigfoot hair you claim to have? Got any audio of the bigfeet speaking English to you?

Oh, and if there is such a thing as bigfoot ... how is that paranormal? It would just indicate to me that bigfoot is good at the hiding part of the kids game "hide and seek".


ETA - I see people have suggested Creekfreak contacts Randi. I would pay big money to see Randi's reply :D

The claim is open to Bigfoot. If you can show that Bigfoot exists in a double-blind test, I encourage you to apply. Historian has grounds for a claim: he believes his Bigfoot calling system attracts Bigfoots. If he could prove it in a double-blind test, he'd win the million. The application form is right here:

http://www.randi.org/research/challenge.html

Please read the rules before attempting to submit a challenge application. Many applications are rejected simply because they aren't filled out properly. Naturally the applicants in these cases feel that the JREF is being unfair or trying to "keep the truth" from people when this happens, but I assure you it's applicant's failure to process the paperwork correctly. I'd hate for you to be rejected because you didn't get your paperwork notarized before you turned it in, as has happened in the past.
 
CF, Did you not claim to have photos of the Ivory billed woodpecker? Do you not claim to have a sample of bigfoot hair? Why are you not getting in touch with real scientists & researchers at the university & making your fortune & cementing your place in history? Could it be because it is really just more dramatic hand waving & exaggerations? Or maybe you were prevaricating/trying to scam people on that too...Perhaps you should look up the definition of the scientific method on google to see how real researchers work...
 
Again we go back to the misunderstanding of paranormal challenge. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the reason Randi doesn't care about how the person pulls of his/her paranormal activity is precisely because it wouldn't be a paranormal activity at all if it did have a logical explanation. That's what the challenge is about: Can you prove it to me that you can perform this current-to-date-unexplainable-by-science-task? Things such as flying, dissapearing objects, bending spoons, going through walls, walking on the surface of the water..... without cheating of course (again, it wouldn't be paranormal if you were cheating, now would it?)

Coming with evidence that there is a new creature that hasn't been catalogued by science is certainly not a paranormal activity (Unless you used telekinetical powers to find such creature, in such case THAT'S what you have to prove), although it would certainly contribute with some interesting information to science's creature-catalog book.
 
I allready did norm but I see they dont seem to care your comment was uncalled for and off subject . Snow I am just asking a question why he hasent put up a million to prove bigfoot . I have never said bigfoot is paranormal this site has classified it as such not me .

IMPORTANT: Only claims that can be verified by evidence under proper observing conditions will be accepted. Also, JREF will NOT accept claims of the existence of deities or demons/angels, the validity of exorcism, religious claims, cloudbusting, causing the Sun to rise or the stars to move, etc. JREF will also NOT test claims that are likely to cause injury of any sort, such as those involving the withholding of air, food or water, or the use of illicit materials, drugs, or dangerous devices.

I have never said these creatures are deities , angels or demons . so where is the money to prove bigfoot is real it can be verified by evidence under proper observing conditions . Put the money up and I will show you
 
Actually, I fail to see how conclusive evidence for Bigfoot (except invisible or perhaps alien Bigfeet (Bigfoots?) is in any way paranormal.

It either exists and is part of the evolutionary path that life has taken on this mudball, or it is not, and no evidence exists. How this is in any way paranormal is beyond me. New species are discovered all the time. Why would this one be any different?

Of course, finding one, would be well and truly worth Millions, but I fail to see the "paranormal" link.

The money is here, in particular, question and answer 3.1:

...The medium-length answer: The money is held in the form of immediately negotiable bonds held by Goldman Sachs, a highly respected investment firm. Anyone can verify that the money exists by requesting the information in writing from the JREF. They will in turn forward you the most recent account statement from Goldman Sachs....

Creekfreak,

Finding a creature previously unknown to science is no big deal - it happens regularly.

You failed to get anyone to buy the Photoshopped helicopter photo, sight unseen, so now you want a million bucks for ... well what exactly? Bigfoot hair, English-speaking bigfoot, or the bigfoot that goes through your trash-can?

It's all about making money to you.

The money is already there. Make a claim that we can test.

This seems a rather pointless thread; the rules for the JREF $1M Challange are on line. After reading them, if you feel you have a claim, follow the instructions and apply.

As has been suggested, you could always contact Randi himself and ask; his e-mail is address is rather easy to find on this site.

ETA: The Challenge aside, there are many Universities or other professional organizations that would work with you IF you had legitimate proof of BF. However, you would need more then your current body of evidence; it has been so poorly handled & documented, at this point it would no scientific credibility.
