Indian Army Finds 2.6-Foot-Long 'Yeti' Footprints In The Himalayas & Have Pictures To Prove It
The Indian Army on Monday claimed to have sighted the mythical beast Yeti near the Makalu Base Camp. But soon the Indian Armys Yeti discovery was the butt of all jokes. The tweet from the official handle of the Indian army boasting about sighting yeti and the reply in all seriousness by a former MP would have been extremely hilarious if not for how embarrassingly cringeworthy this is.
The ¡®Yeti,¡¯ also referred to as the Abominable Snowman, is a mythical legend ¨C an ape-like creature taller than humans, believed to live in the Himalayas, Siberia, Central and East Asia.
Most of us only one person we know to have chanced upon this creature is, Tin Tin. Not anymore.
For the first time, an #IndianArmy Moutaineering Expedition Team has sited Mysterious Footprints of mythical beast 'Yeti' measuring 32x15 inches close to Makalu Base Camp on 09 April 2019. This elusive snowman has only been sighted at Makalu-Barun National Park in the past. pic.twitter.com/AMD4MYIgV7

Congratulations, we are always proud of you. salutes to the #IndianArmy Moutaineering Expedition Team. But please, you are Indian, dont call Yeti as beast. Show respect for them. If you say he is a 'snowman'.

Sir please refer to it as snowperson. It is possible that this could be the wife of the snowman, so we should not just assume the gender.

The hunt for the mythical beast can be traced back to 1950s when a British explorer Eric Shipton when he sighted a series of abnormal footprints while he was looking for a way to climb the Everest.
The existence of a Yeti might be laughable because it's something that we believed in as kids, but if the Indian Army is to be believed, the creature is out and about in the Himalayas.
