i think Family Guy is responsible for bringing Rick Astley back into the pop culture mind..
Brian (the dog, for those that don't watch it) sang that song in an episode, introducing it by saying "here's a song by a gay guy" during a scene where Peter went back in time to try to win Lois's heart all over again... after Brian started singing it, some random guy was seen on a pay phone talking to his "cousin" Rick and saying "you know that bland and generic sound you've been looking for? well, listen to this"- with the implication being that his cousin "Rick" was Rick Astley, and that Brian was the motivation for him to sing that song. i think Seth and crew stole that idea straight from Back to the Future...

All right - let's analyze this a bit.
![]() Here we see an upright creature with hands extending downwards to mid-thigh. From the video on the website, the few frames are indeed brief, but clearly indicate normal upright movement, rather than the ambling walk we see in apes. But is it man, humanoid, or (gulp!) BIGFOOT??? Let's take another look at the entire frame: ![]() It's clear from the lens flare that the entire scene is backlit. Thus, the humanoid appears dark. So why isn't the grass black, too? The shady side of grass strands as illuminated by the reflected light from the sunward sides. Since the frequencies are the same, they're very well lit, and appear in normal tones. The material worn by the humanoid (fur, felt, jeans, nylon, whatever) is clearly absorbing of those frequencies, rendering it dark against the background. It's also clear from the lack of vegetation and the fact that the grass is yellowish-brown that it's not Spring or Summer. Thus, it's probably cool, if not cold. Since this is a hunting website, and hunting season is typically in the colder months, requiring jackets, hats, and often gloves, it's safe to assume the humanoid is simply a warmly-dressed man walking along a path in front of the remotely-triggered camera. Some may argue, "but he's not wearing hunters' orange!" to which I would reply, "so?" Not exactly the smartest thing to do while walking through active hunting areas during hunting season, but it's hardly uncommon. In fact, it is common, though more for mere passers-by than for hunters. In conclusion, there's absolutely no conclusive evidence here that this is anything other than a warmly-dressed, backlit person walking out of frame. |

I, for one, was never sold on the idea that it was Biggie. However, it was an interesting tidbit.

Very student film.
If it were part of a larger B movie or so, the credit would read like this. Half of Bigfoot...Samuel Jackson "Yeah I shot the last Bigfoot and I hope he burns in H377!"

The Rickroll (YouTube video)? Must be, for that is, of course, the one true subject matter of this topic.
No. It was recorded on the USA Thanksgiving holiday, Thursday, 2008, November 27. (Why do people keep putting up silent images of Rick Astley disguised as a large-footed ape, or shadowy impersonation thereof, in this topic? I don't get those. If he doesn't sing, it's not a 'Roll. Wait. Maybe it's a meta-roll! Oh! Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you.)
