Is researcher Yowee Down Under Trying to Hoax Us?
I have shared a link to my Facebook page of a report I have written regarding the 100% proof video from Yowee Down Under and something that I originally shared on my page in excitement. Shame on me!

Hey Slats thats very weird. I was watching hairy mans cloaking video a couple of days ago for like the 50th time. I finally saw what they were talking about and then kept thinking of the 100% proof image of YDU. I came to the same conclusion as you that they were the same image.

Hey Yowie Bait
I was unfortunately stupid enough to trust him and take him for his word. Hence the reason I did the report. I have asked him and his mate to prove me wrong..... I won't be holding my breath though.

Well i cant be totally sure but theyre very similar. Could be a different frame from the hairy man vid. Someone with the skills could tell if they could be bothered. I dont see how its 100% proof anyway but thats a common claim on youtube!

I think they are the same everything lines up. I think he took the frame from the video he shared of the original and slowed zoomed in on it. That is where I got the screen shots from very similar. I will apologise if he proves me wrong though.

It seems like the same image but slightly different position of the reeds or grass and coloured differently.

Hopefully we are mistaken...

Ron told me the same person put up a story on diagular, Ron watched it and it was all about me. Yowie down under said he took my encounter from Ayr and my YouTube stuff and did his own you tube channel on it without me knowing. After reading this I had no idea he was a hoax. I have never seen the video u guys r talking about.dee

Hey Dee
He took the video down after I asked him if he stole someone else's imagery. He replied that he took it down because of the number dislikes it recieved and everyone wanted to know the back story.
I'm still trying to get more info from him.

I think it might have been adjusted by the stacking technique "others" have used to highlight want they want us to see.

I would love to be mistaken!

No the 1 Ron saw is called yowie in Queensland the night d'augilar came alive. This was narrated, and no footage of mine was used. Was surprising though for me to watch as I had no idea. Just checked, this 1 is still on YouTube. I do have a YouTube movie called yowies in the dark. I hope this isn't the one he is using and changing.as u said he's pulled it down now anyway luckily.

Yes it is, he's done it with other stories here on the forums. The Abducted by Woodarchies video https://youtu.be/384cqRUACeA is from a WA thread here.

Isn't this blatant plagiarism and theft????

Dee, if he's using your videos on his channel without your permission, report him for theft of your content. This c**p should not stand. He is riding on the coattails of others to get views and/or credibility. This p*sses me off so much! >:(

I have no idea of the legality of it all but you shouldnt have to put your stuff on private if you dont want. You can always just ask him to take it down i guess?

If he doesn't acknowledge the original owner of the imagery or written information it can be considered plagiarism.
Dee you can ask him to take it down or report the video to YouTube for infringing your rights.

This is why people shouldn't lie the truth will always prevail!

Thanks Outback Lurker
It's sad what lengths people will go to for notoriety.
It would be good if they could answer the questions we ask and prove the work they are doing.

As I've previously stated,albeit in a recently deleted thread.........you need to be accountable for your actions,in all walks of life.
If not,well,you'll soon find out from those around you where you "fit" in the realm of things (2guns)
Keep up your good work guy's and girls (claps hands)

Thanks slat, i just got back and watched that video " The night diagular came alive. I contacted him and let him know i was the person he was talking about, i assumed he just asked me to put my link up, i didnt know he was using my video on his actual channel, and changed the name, music ect.. He did say my name at the beginning of the video. But i had no idea it was on his channel. I just wished it was exactly the same as the 1 i put up, but minor changes were made, the name of it and music etc..

Anyhow i didnt put mine up for likes and credit. I put it on so friends could see it. I would just hate if it gets completely changed and discredits me.
None of my videos had a yowie in it, so if one is shown under my videos on his channel its been changed , i have the original video here on usb i can show.

Anyhow i have now placed my videos on private so things dont get out of hand again.

Really i should have been asked in the first place if he could use my story.

On another note HOME SWEET HOME, the conference was good , met new people and got on the Bourbon too, yipeee. I saw a awesome bush cam photo from Nigel that ray showed, i was very impressed.
Ray is going to attempt to hold another one here on the northside, sunny coast, i will ask him if i can show the photo we have at that conferance that was taken from our bush cams, i would also like to show everyone other stuff we have found. I am waiting till then as i will await the forensic outcome of the hair sample i have, do some extra walks in the meantime and collect my audio and videos ready for the event. Hopefully a lot more people can attend.Dee
