I saw bigfoot for the first time in 1990 and haven't seen anything that exciting since. I'm in love with monster trucks and bigfoot started that for me 💪
I remember going to monster truck shows with my dad and my brother and it was awesome. My cousin had this tape when we were kids, Big Foot is the king of monster trucks.
Monster trucks have come a long way since Bob Chandler invented it. 1973 is where it began. The first monster trucks were raised pick up trucks with larger tires. Then eventually given a super charged engine, military axles, and 66” tires. However, factory built pickups being used for monster trucks were phased out due to rolling over, with glass in the driver’s eyes along with broken backs. Not just that, the trucks were actually fragile and expensive to repair. That’s why we have roll caged monster trucks with fiberglass bodies. Safety first people!
it all started with Bob Chandler not being allowed to video tape his own trucks during racing......and not all truck owners want to tear their trucks up like they do at MJ events.
It all depends on which Bigfoot you are referring to. The ORIGINAL was retired in 1987 and sits on display outside the Bigfoot 4 x 4 store in St. Louis. There have been several others since then, skipping the number 13 due to superstition. I personally haven't kept up with Monster Jam in several years, but I do remember Bigfoot being gone a year or two before I stopped watching. Definitely always my favorite truck in the sport.
This came out in 1986 a lot of the footage is from 1984/85/86 (Return of Monster Trucks) home footage in there. I still have my copy to this day. LOL Thanks for sharing this great history!
Every time I hear this song, I’m suddenly transported back to sitting on my dad’s shoulders when Bigfoot did a demonstration at the Ford Store in my hometown back in 1988. I had just turned five that year. The engine in that truck was the loudest thing I had ever heard in my young life. I think I got tinnitus that day and I still have that ringing in my ears to this day from it and I’m 40.
When my wife was pregnant with out son, we were thinking of names. Then while changing channels we saw Bob Chandler on TV with Bigfoot. So we named our son Roy.Just kidding, Chandler is his name.
If Bob Chandler never tried to create an off road truck that turned into a monster truck, the entire sport wouldn't exist. We owe him a debt of gratitude for the sport he accidentally created.
I love my '90 F-150. True, she has problems, but she's been abused by other owners and I'm left to pick up the pieces. Wouldn't trade that truck for the whole world. :)
Bigfoot is and will always be...the best monster truck in the entire world! He's a legend!!!!!!
Agreed

Dude this actually gave me flashbacks of "There goes a Monster Truck", Friggin loved it as a child.....thank you for bringing those memories back
I love that Real Wheels episode, especially the monster truck rally segment where they jumped the cars.

We love Bigfoot. We just saw him live this past weekend. Great tribute!!!!
Was there any racing or crushing? Stunts?
Jedidah Fire It was all 3 when we went to Hot Wheels Monster Truck Live. We went that one to specifically see Bigfoot for our Family Travel Vlog.
@@SantosChronicles Cool, thanks.
Jedidah Fire It was just like when I watched it on TV when I was a kid. So iconic.
@@SantosChronicles Was it actually a Real truck or a fiberglass pos?
A real bigfoot; no blurry pictures here.

Bro i swear you are like the smart kid in my school but way more cool
Bogfoot #1 is in Savoy museum right now in Cartersville Georgia. Will be their until January of 24
One guy puts tractor wheels on a truck, and it turns into a national sport. That guy is a genius.

True lmao
Yea
You mean Bob Chandler?
Tractors have skinny monster treads on their tires

OMG I have been looking for this for about 6 years now!
You should upload this whole video
HoAx000 hai
Ciao
Been watching this video since I was a kid....still have my copy too...
This model is my favorite.
The best truck design ever
my childhood... i miss it...
I love big foot trucks their my favorite monster truck
Yes I like both gravedigger and bigfoot but this is so cool how he made this truck from scratch.
I remember back when I was just 4, I saw this video and would always listen to it despite me loving MJ more XD
Omg I had this tape also but all of mine were lost or so play worn that they got tossed! I would totally kill for a copy or something somehow!
Grew up with this crazy how far it has come today
thank you so much for the upload i too had this tape when i was about 8 years old brings back good memories
OMG...I still have this entire tape.
You know what this monster truck is awesome this guy is a legend and I like the monster truck so much I subscribed this video.
I remember watching this repeatedly on vhs back in the day as a young lad haha
When my son asked me about American History I’m going to show him this video.

THATS THE ORIGNAL!! FORD BABY!! LOVE THAT TRUCK!!
Wish I could hit the like button a million times on this
Bigfoot is❤
The legend will always be renemberd
Bigfoot still the coolest monster truck 😀
What a beauty!!! Bigfoot is my hero!!
I remember watching them with my Dad. We always chose Big Foot. Good memories...
Thats how i am
That truck made me a Ford Man at the ripe old age of 5 (I’m 38 now).
сд-диск Monster Truck Madness - 1996 год :)))
nothing beats the original trucks
love the 70-80s video
reminds me of the good ole days man. the car industry has change a lot.
jajayaboy გჰგგგ
Paata Kveselava huh?
+Paata Kveselava Hey! that's messed up, WTF did you just call me!
The truck that started it all!!
The first and still the coolest !!!!!!!!!!!! Long live the foot .
An American legend 🇺🇸🗽👍😊
I rented this video so many times!
Legends don't die they get better
4x4x4 means 4 wheels, 4 wheel drive, 4 wheel steering.
Bigfoot the original MT we even have one over here in the UK. How come it's not part of the monster jam tour?
Screw Monster Jam, Bigfoot is the true king!
Yeah i agree. Grave digger and co are fucking sellouts to the devil called monterjam.
Chris G. But BigFoot will never be as good as MaxD
Chris G. Yep dat’s a fact
The PunkSurfer true
The PunkSurfer That’s because Foot doesn’t have to be, that’s not their style.
My dad and me built our own bigfoot monster truck with a 3000 hp gas engine. We have hit almost 250 mph with it. Lots of power.
80s and 90s monster truck competition were so much better
I've still got the program on VHS too
Big foot stays strong 💪
When my wife was pregnant with out son, we were thinking of names. Then while changing channels we saw Bob Chandler on TV with Bigfoot. So we named our son Roy.Just kidding, Chandler is his name.
Who does the song!? It's freaking great.
The older ones look way better than the new ones!
I like those old Ford bullnose F-series pickups. You don't see many of them on the roads anymore like you use to back in those days.
I remember seeing this when I was about 6. God damn epic. I woulda killed for a power wheels bigfoot, lucky bastards. Bigfoot rules all.
So that’s where all the classic cars went
A lot of those classic, vintage sports cars were crushed back then, unfortunately
Theres a whole lot more to do with a monster truck than run in circles, and destroying a truck like monster jam. Long live the BIGFOOT
2:52 is the most wicked thing I've ever seen!
2:52
Love that too! Squashing two other monster trucks!
I like the design of the truck am I right?
I really like Bigfoot specially the #5 with 10-foot tall Firestone Tundra 120x48x60 tires.
I love the part at 2:52, where Bigfoot 5 crushed those two other monster trucks
I used to have this video tape!
I bought a diecast Bigfoot today and was singing this song.
actually bigfoots first rival was USA-1 but when gravedigger with crazy dennis anderson came around driving crazy he took over everyone
I wish I still had my 79 F-150 and make it a Bigfoot
truely a great truck
Long live the king!! BIGFOOT!!
I had the Bigffoot Power Wheels!! GREAT memories!!
bigfoot and big pete are like the biggest monster trucks in history
Bigfoot 5 is amazing and awesome it's so cool
Same, I also like the Bigfoot 5.
1:03 which truck is that and anyone know if any other footage of that crash?
Quadzilla was the name of the truck.
It was the first rollover ever.
It’s the only footage of it. There are pictures of it but nothing else.
The bullnose Bigfoot the 1980 through 1986 Ford body style
All of the monster trucks that you see today are wannabes and they can not replace the one true king of the monster trucks and that is big foot
The tryhards are max d and grave digger
Preaching to the choir, Brother !!👍
damn i miss the eighties
Like this if you like Bigfoot 😁

good beat for the song
So awesome

Ford is awesome prior to 1990. Also some of this footage is from T.N.T Motorsports and Tuff traxs.
I love my '90 F-150. True, she has problems, but she's been abused by other owners and I'm left to pick up the pieces. Wouldn't trade that truck for the whole world. :)
+TheBandicootBrony I own a 74 Ford F 150
Outlaw Pulls Awesome! You use her for work, play, or both? :D
Mostly play.

Bigfoot will never lose a round a time of a year
Pinnacle of America right there.
Awesome bigfoot
Monitor truck 😊😊😊😊 nhạc hey

Bigfoot is to monster trucks as Hulk Hogan is to pro wrestling. A timeless and untouchable legend.
I've seen big food at spandiñg Ford dealership
Godzilla is the king of the monsters
and bigfoot is the king of the monster trucks
Look out...
It's Bigfoot!
Nuff said.
Awesome
I watched this the other day on vhs.
1:59 I got a ticket for that exact same thing once... pretty expensive one..
Erock needs to do a cover of this.
right fucking on! this bigfoot with the 85 ford body was my favorite growing up.
Seeing a monster truck drive down the rode is totally normal!
