This real life wild man was seen throughout the 1950's and 1960's. Many tall tales of sightings still circulate about him, however, this film is the only known footage to exist of this apparent feral man. Those who got close enough to him could see he was a human and not a marauding animal/big foot type creature as described with embellished fanciful details by the locals. He is described as a type of primitive looking man, huge in stature, he would always flee when seen. Dubbed the Wizard because he would appeared to vanish into thin air whenever pursued. He is evidently a man, according to the few brave and curious who got close enough to see him. Legend has it he was born with a rare facial deformity, called Elephant Man Disease and as a child, his own reflection would startled him to tears. Rejected by his parents and all who came into contact with him, the burden of the rejection drove him to runaway at the age of 8 or 9, taking refuge in the dense forest of the mountai! ns, only to re-emerge from the forest many years later as a real life wild man.
