I was about 9 years old or so and I saw the infamous two part episode of “The Six Million Dollar Man” called “The Secret of Bigfoot” and it blew my mind. I already had read about the episodes coming soon in TV Guide so knew that Bigfoot was to be portrayed by my favorite wrestler André the Giant. But knowing who was in that costume didn’t keep away the nightmares. That ice tunnel terrified me.
As so began a life long fascination with Bigfoot.
The photo above is of Kenneth Johnson the writer/producer of those episodes. He is holding a plaster cast of Andre the Giant’s size 24 foot.
