Minnesota Iceman eyewitness tells his story on the BFF

A man named Verne Langdon claims to have been there at the beginning of the creation of the Minnesota Iceman. You can follow the thread here. Here's a bit of what he's had to say:

Frank Hansen read about our studios in James Warren's and Forrest J Ackerman's Famous Monsters Of Filmland Magazine, and came to see us about the possibility of creating a "concept" - he showed us a rough sketch - a prehistoric creature he planned to freeze in a block of ice, and exhibit it throughout the United States.

He also says he has no doubt that John Chambers had nothing to do with the Patterson Gimlin film. In fact he says a lot of interesting things. I suggest you go over there and have a read.
