Cryptid Profile - De Loys' Ape

  • New video on a cryptid! This time I discuss the "mystery" of the De Loys' Ape, a Bigfoot-like primate that was photographed deep within the jungles of South America and is claimed to be an undiscovered ape man. We will tackle the question on if this really is an undiscovered species or not. Additionally, I discuss the history of European and American exploration into the "undiscovered" jungles of South America in the early to mid 20th century such as Percy Fawcett's adventures.
    Hope you enjoy!
    Edit:
    No don't worry, I wasn't dissing David Attenborough at 3:28. I was doing the opposite, I was praising him for being a person that's probably actually worth of the title of being an "Indiana Jones". I love the guy and the other scientists I listed as they actually did contribute to scientific understanding unlike some of the other people I mention in this video. It went by super quickly and my editing there was pretty bad for timing. My bad.
    Another Edit:
    I added some citations, my bad for not including them in the video originally

    • @ChadButt
      @ChadButt 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm no expert, like at all, but I think I may have some insight.
      In paleoanthropology, when differentiating very similar species like homo sapiens and homo neanderthalensis, for instance, they look for "suites" of differences.​ it helps if the species has a very unique trait, such as the occipital bun of Neanderthals. No human has been recorded to have had a real occipital bun. This feature, along with other differences, forms a "suite", or series, of traits that define one species from the other.
      That being said, paleontologist and paleoanthropologists are constantly switching things around as they evaluate and reevaluate new and old materials.
      Genetic makeup is another part of what helps us define more modern species. This can't be used for dinosaurs, obviously, though.
      At the end of the day, paleontologists really just have to be very discerning and use all given information to come to the best, most logical conclusion about species and phylogeny. @kyrab7914

      Given that a skull has a natural shape of some kind of vessel, it's not that far off.

    Good work Trey, here's some more information that truly bangs the last nail into this cryptid coffin.
    In 1999, the July-August edition of the Venezuelan scientific magazine Interciencia published a letter sent in 1962 from Doctor Enrique Tejera to the editor Guillermo José Schael of the magazine Diario El Universal:
    […] "This monkey is a myth. I will tell you his story. […]
    Mister Montandon said that the monkey had no tail. That is for sure, but he forgot to mention something, it has no tail because it was cut off. I can assure you this, gentlemen, because I saw the amputation…[].
    Who is speaking here in 1917 was working in a camp for oil exploration in the region of Perijá. The geologist was François de Loys, the engineer Dr. Martín Tovar Lange. De Loys was a prankster and often we laughed at his jokes. One day they gave him a monkey with an ill tail, so it was amputated. Since then de Loys called him “el hombre mono” (the monkey man).
    Some time later I and de Loys went in another region of Venezuela: in an area called Mene Grande. He always walked along the side of his monkey, who died some time later. De Loys decided to take a photo and I believe that Mr. Montandon will not deny it is the same photograph that he presented today. [in 1929 Montandon presented the Ameranthropoides in a public lecture].
    More recently during a visit to Paris my astonishment was great visiting the Museum of Man. On top of a monumental scale, filling the back wall, there was a huge photo with the caption: “The first anthropoid ape discovered in America.”
    It was the photograph of de Loys, beautifully modified. The plants were no longer visible in the background, and it was not possible to understand on which kind of box the monkey was sitting. The trick is done so well that within a few years the monkey will be over two meters high […].
    Finally, I must warn you: Montandon was not a good person. After the war he was executed because he betrayed France, his homeland."
    Sincerely, Your friend Enrique Tejera.
    As for de Loys, he continued his geological career and in 1926 he joined a Turkish Petroleum Company. In 1928 he became a fellow of the Geological Society of London and went off to Iraq to study the local geology and the possible oil reserves to be found in the region.
    Sowing his wild oats, he contracted syphilis, returned to the town of Lausanne in France ( edit: Switzerland) where he died young, on October 16, 1935.

    No don't worry, I wasn't dissing David Attenborough at 3:28. I was doing the opposite, I was praising him for being a person that's probably actually worth of the title of being an "Indiana Jones". I love the guy and the other scientists I listed as they actually did contribute to scientific understanding unlike some of the other people I mention in this video. It went by super quickly and my editing there was pretty bad for timing. My bad.
    Also to the people saying I'm a PC Liberal Snowflake for just merely mentioning racism and its relation to this story (yes I have gotten a bunch of comments like this):
    Are you serious? I was actually pretty confident a lot of what was said in this video was pretty well accepted by most people... but here were are. It just seems like people are looking to get offended quite frankly. The racism of George Montandon is an integral part of the story and like it or not his views are necessary to understand the cryptid. Montandon's theories were made primarily for racial reasons rather than scientific (which is probably the reason why he fabricated evidence in the first place). His theories are so intertwined in racism that its difficult to separate the two.
    I did a lot of research for this video and just wanted to talk about the full story. If you are just going to complain then please just go somewhere else as I'm not too interested. If you had a criticism with the length, I will take your criticism into consideration for next time, I understand if you felt like I dwelt on it too long. My bad if I made it sound preachy as that wasn't my intention. I guess I might have been less dramatic and done and phrased this a little differently in hindsight. I guess all of this is a learning experience and I'll definitely keep some of your criticisms into consideration in the future.
    Also for people talking about the claim that Piranhas and Electric Eels don't kill people, I guess you could find isolated and rare reports of deaths, but they are so rare and require such specific conditions I wouldn't even count them. They definitely aren't anywhere close to how Percy described them.

    - greatest hoaxers of all time. Sure why not?
    - the philadelphia experiment is time travel even real???
    - life in the Devonian seas.
    - paleprofile Sarcosuchus
    - life after the chicxulub impact. Hardly and videos on that on youtube. Most of them only about the impact.

      I mean... that map has a "broad" definition of human- like- ape- cryptid. In europe (i'll stick to europe as i am unsure about the others) we can see on the map ice giants of nordic sagas and Grendel from the tale of Beowulf. Both are content of old legends, not historical sightings like bigfoot or the florida ape man. The map might've featured cyclopes and Goliath as well, as these come from equally uncertain legends as well.

    If I recall correctly that isn't an ape at all, it was actually a small monkey of some kind (I forgot, I wanna say spider monkey) that was killed, you can actually gauge the size from the little banana tree sprouts on the ground around it, it's around 2-3 feet tall with a stick propping it's head up sitting on a small wooden box.
