32-inch footprints in snow: Yeti, myths and fact

Army has claimed large footprints it has seen are of the Yeti. The mythical creature has often been the subject of expedition reports and depicted in popular culture, but there is no scientific evidence that it exists.

Giant footprints 32 inches long and 15 inches wide — that is what an Indian Army team claims to have seen during a Himalayan expedition earlier this month. The longest known feet of a human being, according to the Guinness Book of Records, measure 15.78 inches. The normal width of human feet is not more than two to four inches. The average size of feet of apes like the gorilla is between 10 and 14 inches.
