Someone would of found one by now.

Simple explanation

"It's a known fact that human beings and Neanderthals were battling pretty heavy 35,000 years ago," he said. "I believe they split at that time and went off into the woods."

Under Brock's theory, Neanderthals developed as a species parallel to human beings. But, while humans were developing technology and cities, Neanderthals were learning to live in the forests, and in hiding from their enemies.

Like the portal theory, Brock notes his more Earthbound beliefs also answer the questions raised by skeptics. Why are they so hard to find? Tens of thousands of years of experience with camouflage, he noted.

"Like us, they became masters of their domain, but their domain was the forest. They know how to hide," he said. "They actually went beyond being masters of their domain."

But that leaves the bodies, right? Not so, Brock said, because Neanderthals were and are cannibals.

"By eating their bodies, they do two things," he said. "First, they feed themselves. Second, they dispose of the bodies."

Is bigfoot an extraterrestrial?
