Season 1

In this episode, we delve into the remarkable experiences of Tom Sewid, a First Nations man from Northern Vancouver Island who now lives in Forks, Washington on the Olympic Peninsula. Growing up immersed in Indigenous traditions where Sasquatch is understood as part of the land and culture, Thomas shares a lifetime of encounters that began in his youth and continued through decades spent guiding, fishing, and living deep in the bush.


From coastal shellfish beaches of Vancouver Island to remote river systems and logging country near Forks, Thomas recounts close-range sightings, thermal captures, gifting interactions, and moments that brought him face to face with these beings at startling distances. He also discusses the development of his upcoming Sasquatch museum, rare cast acquisitions, and the cultural regalia connected to his tribe’s highest-ranking crest.


Throughout the conversation, Thomas offers insight into territorial patterns, population estimates tied to salmon rivers, and the importance of respect when entering these environments. His perspective bridges lived wilderness experience with Indigenous knowledge passed down through generations.


Join us as we explore Thomas’s powerful journey across Vancouver Island and the Pacific Northwest, where Sasquatch is not a legend of the past, but an ongoing presence woven into the land itself.

1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.120
You're listening to Bigfoot Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In

2
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.879
this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring

3
00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:08.720
you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen

4
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:12.880
something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to

5
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:16.719
quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,

6
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.719
and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.

7
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.000
These are the voices of the people who've lived it.

8
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:27.440
To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that

9
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.120
just might change the way you see the woods forever.

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:33.000
So stay with us, all right, Bigfoot Society, Welcome back

11
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:36.200
to another episode. Today, we've got the privilege of talking

12
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:40.039
to mister Tom Seawood up there in the Pacific Northwest.

13
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:44.000
You may know Tom from a few different things such

14
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:48.799
as Sasquatchthelegend dot Com. If you've been to Forks, Washington,

15
00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:54.079
you may have seen the Bigfoot Store and also opening

16
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:56.359
up a Bigfoot museum, which we'll probably be talking about

17
00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:01.240
that as well. And you run a rather big Facebook

18
00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:03.119
group Sasquatch Island as well.

19
00:01:03.159 --> 00:01:08.000
Right, Tom, Yes, man, Gaelic greetings, and everyone watching, My

20
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:11.959
name's Tom Sewitt. Remember the quawkwalky Walk First Nation or

21
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:15.480
Indian tribe from northern Vancouver Island. But I do live

22
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:17.799
here in Forks, Washington, on the Olympic Peninsula.

23
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:23.439
Awesome, Awesome, Forks is such a great place. I need

24
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.319
to get back out there now that I'm into Bigfoot.

25
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:29.680
I will say, the last time I was out there

26
00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:34.719
was actually for a honeymoon and it was more into

27
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.519
the twilight side of things. This was a long time ago,

28
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:40.319
so I need to get back out there and see

29
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:44.359
all the Bigfoot stuff. Man's let's talk about I mean,

30
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.719
I'm really interested in your starting up this museum, and

31
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:52.640
you are starting to get acquisitions for this left and right.

32
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:56.599
Oh, it's as crazy all the support we're getting. And

33
00:01:56.680 --> 00:01:58.879
you know, I guess it's mainly because I have so

34
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:03.480
many in my personal collection, Like the company house I

35
00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:06.640
live in here, I do all of the West Coast

36
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:10.599
Native art for the store of Sasquatch and Wales and

37
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:14.479
other things, but mainly Sasquatch. So you know, the original

38
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:17.039
paintings I had, you know, I had them just piled

39
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:19.479
up in my closet, but now they're on the walls

40
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:21.319
of this house. But we're going to bring them to

41
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:26.960
the museum, and we just recently we acquired a private

42
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:31.520
collection of thirty eight casts, numerous foot casts, all the

43
00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:37.319
famous ones, you know, Josh Gates, Yetti, Replica, Bossburg, Cripplefoot.

44
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:41.240
But the unique thing about it was the gentleman reached

45
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:45.680
out sixteen years ago to doctor Jeff Meldrum and that's

46
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:47.639
who he bought the cast off. So they all have

47
00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:51.000
that sort of ash colored gray with them that you know,

48
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.360
was indicative of a Meldrum cast and a lot of

49
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:59.360
provedance with it. And then woman from Oregon City came

50
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:03.599
up last weekend and she donated three casts. One of

51
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:07.960
an eighteen inch foot it's massive from Mount Hood, a

52
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:11.240
big knuckle print and a big handprint the size of

53
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:14.360
a baseball glove. I talked to someone on Vancouver Island.

54
00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:18.680
I got a the famous say word Vancouver Island trackway.

55
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:21.400
I'm gonna have one of those casts as well as

56
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:26.039
my good buddy, the late doctor John Bindernagel, his famous

57
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:28.879
cast with the hiking boot imprint in the middle of it.

58
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:33.039
I'll have that museum eventually as well too, So it's

59
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.039
going to be a big museum. We're probably pushing close

60
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.439
to forty five plus cast even a butt print in

61
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:42.080
the Sasquat, so you can believe that. I don't think

62
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:44.840
that we'd get one of those, but we got one.

63
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:49.800
Oh wow, what's the history on on on the butt print?

64
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:55.560
We don't know where it's from, but apparently it's a female.

65
00:03:55.599 --> 00:04:00.360
You can actually someone said you can actually speak outline there.

66
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:02.919
So it's a pretty famous cast. And I believe Cliff

67
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:07.319
has a replica of it in his museum. But this

68
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:11.280
lady she picked up or that private collector, he picked

69
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:13.919
it up from somewhere and we got it now, so

70
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:16.959
that'll be good. And then one of the unique things

71
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:20.959
is behind me. You see tona overrom my left shoulder.

72
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:24.879
That's what we call Sasquatch and my language a quacola

73
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.399
from my tribe. It's our highest rank crest. And when

74
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.879
we go to potlatches, we'll wear the regalia of the cedar,

75
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:36.079
tona mask and the fur regalia my family. You have

76
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:40.360
a basket on your back for the baby Sasquatch, and

77
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.480
we're going to build mannequins and have them in display

78
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:46.399
cases so you can see the You know, it's pretty

79
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:48.879
famous regalia that I have because I've done so many

80
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:52.560
conferences and television shows. And then this one right here

81
00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:56.360
is actually owned by Robert Alley. I'm just doing some

82
00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:00.399
finishing work on a crack that he got in there.

83
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:03.800
He dropped it, but anyway, that's books. And those are

84
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:08.839
the little hair covered beings that are bipedal. To my tribe,

85
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:11.000
they're the keeper of the ghost world or chief of

86
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:14.519
the ghost world. But to other Indian tribes right across

87
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:17.839
North America, they're referred to as little people or stick people.

88
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:20.720
So it's going to be a pretty unique museum, a

89
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:28.199
lot of Indigenous Indian cultural components pertaining to Sasquats.

90
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:31.439
It'll be very extremely interesting.

91
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:32.120
I know that.

92
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:37.680
I know at least some of your items will be

93
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:42.240
unique to that museum and not in any other museums.

94
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:46.759
And I'm referencing probably to the Mount Hood casts, which

95
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:52.680
I know a little bit about actually, because I think

96
00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:56.879
the ones that you received. I myself am friends with

97
00:05:56.920 --> 00:06:00.839
the individual as well that was up visiting you, which

98
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:05.680
she is great and the Frank Canister. Do you know

99
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:10.439
if they were cast by her specifically, or if they

100
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:15.279
were from the individual that she used to partner with.

101
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.160
Sounds like they were together when they did it. Okay,

102
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:23.879
and of course, you know, tragically passed on an accident,

103
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:26.959
which is really bad. And when she came up you

104
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:29.360
could tell she was pretty distraught and everything. But you know,

105
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:32.040
brought me a whole bunch of free breaks and twists

106
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:36.160
as well, and weave bundles. But I swore in as

107
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:41.560
the president of Sasquatch Island, Oregon, and in order to

108
00:06:41.800 --> 00:06:45.879
break in my presidents, I got to show them a Sasquatch.

109
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:50.000
So last Friday night she got here Friday afternoon, six

110
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:52.959
hour drive, give her some dinner because I call it

111
00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:55.920
eating like a Sasquatch, and made a traditional food of

112
00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.480
food I had harvested and the thin sluff over the

113
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:01.759
last year in a bit, and then afterwards we drove

114
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:04.319
down picked up my buddy who's one of my fellow

115
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:07.800
investigators here on the peninsula, and we drove up to

116
00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:11.879
We have a contract with a family and we're calling

117
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:17.360
it Squatch Walk to Ranch and logo and T shirts coming.

118
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:19.879
It's kind of like that other one that's out there,

119
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:23.920
but we have over three hundred plus acres with five

120
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.959
houses on it and a pioneer family that are all

121
00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:30.560
seventy years old and older. And they didn't know what

122
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:34.759
was sasquatch that was banging their houses and making noise

123
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:37.399
and tree knocking and breaking. So they brought me in

124
00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:42.120
a couple of months ago. And you know it's so

125
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:44.720
popular that their property was actually on one of the

126
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:48.399
TV shows a few years ago, would go. Shane Corson

127
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:52.000
from the Olympic Project was there. Shane came up and

128
00:07:52.040 --> 00:07:55.160
investigated with my partner my friend the other couple of

129
00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:57.160
weeks ago, and I talked to him today. He's coming

130
00:07:57.199 --> 00:08:00.879
back because it is one like the Monkey Kong. We

131
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.399
go up there Friday night. I didn't want to go

132
00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:08.319
in the direct property, but we were using we got

133
00:08:08.519 --> 00:08:12.360
purchased replacement value would be over forty fifty thousand dollars

134
00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:17.360
the three Flirt night vision heat scopes we bought. They're

135
00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:20.759
not manufactured by Flur. There are other companies from a

136
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.439
few years back. But we're turning the darkness into daylight

137
00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:28.560
and seeing like two three hundred yards and we were

138
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:32.679
going down the road just outside the gate and I'm

139
00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:35.159
like stop, and this deer come across the road. At

140
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:37.759
the same time I said stop, and I looked in

141
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.639
the field because I saw bedded down elk not forty

142
00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:44.600
fifty yards from us. But then as I looked up

143
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:50.120
in the dozen douglas fur about two feet in diameter

144
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:56.000
but spread apart, here's this big sasquatch standing there looking

145
00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:58.480
at the road where we are, and all of a

146
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.600
sudden we all saw it moving about and they're, you know,

147
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:04.279
they were talking away. I'm looking with white flour and

148
00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:07.159
we're swapping the different units because you know what, everyone

149
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:11.080
seems to have a different ability to see things, and

150
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:14.159
one's heat and of course, and I even tried my

151
00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:17.679
little flur scout and I could see the heat sig

152
00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:22.399
of the sasquatch tree peakon. And she's like, am I

153
00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:25.679
really looking at the sasquatch. I'm like, yeah, she finally

154
00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:27.720
get to see a sasquatch. I said, well, I hope

155
00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:30.279
you too, know you're my number twenty three and twenty

156
00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:34.639
four that I put on a sasquatch and we watched it,

157
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:37.000
and then I hit the squat light after about eight

158
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:39.879
minutes or so to try to illuminate it, but it

159
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:41.879
was a little too far away. It was two hundred

160
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:45.759
and twenty five yards are a little more away. And

161
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.679
we measured it out a day later, and everything we'd

162
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:51.200
know that he was over eight foot tall. He was

163
00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:53.679
two hundred and twenty five to two hundred and forty

164
00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:57.720
yards away from the road, and all of a sudden

165
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:00.960
I hit the squat light. The other two their scopes on.

166
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:03.639
They're like, it just dropped. It hit the dirt, hit

167
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:06.279
the dirt, and then I grabbed another scope, shut the

168
00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:08.600
light off. Look and I could see it crawling on

169
00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:12.200
the ground away from us. And then it disappeared because

170
00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:15.720
it got into the big ferns that were three four

171
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:18.159
feet high, so I was crawling through that, and then

172
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:19.639
all of a sudden it stood up and I could

173
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:23.080
see it walking by patedly away from us into the

174
00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:25.919
log and slash, and you know that was you know,

175
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:28.919
I've seen him so many times. It's you know, it's

176
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:30.960
a big deal. Yeah, but it's not that big of

177
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:36.200
a deal to me nowadays. But to Steve and to Hooley,

178
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:39.200
you know that was bucketless. They got their check.

179
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:43.320
Yeah, no, absolutely. I actually talked to Uli earlier today

180
00:10:44.440 --> 00:10:46.919
because I was like, I gotta hear from Uli, and

181
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:51.440
she's she's still on on cloud nine. I mean I

182
00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:54.960
was constantly playing over and over in her head and

183
00:10:55.240 --> 00:10:58.440
the crazy thing is is it's like, I'm just going

184
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:01.360
to share a little bit from what she shared with me,

185
00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:06.080
just what she noticed. It's like, it's not like you

186
00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:09.279
purposely stopped in a certain point. It's like, all of

187
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:14.200
a sudden, a deer rushed out of the side of

188
00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.600
the road. It was like, really emotional. It had its

189
00:11:17.679 --> 00:11:21.639
tail tucked between its legs, and so you guys had

190
00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:23.679
to stop because the deer was there, and you look

191
00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:28.000
over the elk and there's the sasquatch. It's like crazy man.

192
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:32.240
Yeah, And being a grizzly bear hunting guide for over

193
00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:36.480
twenty years and a horseman for decades, commercial fishermen and that,

194
00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:39.039
but mainly my bush skills. You know. As soon as

195
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:42.080
we stopped, the first thing I registered on is, you know,

196
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:45.559
because I'm a smoker, is which ways to smoke going?

197
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:49.279
And it was going from the elk to the sasquatch.

198
00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:52.399
So he was in a downrin position and with the

199
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:56.240
piles of broken branches and refuse from the logging operation

200
00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:58.600
that took place there, like you know, big beaver dam,

201
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:02.159
beaver houses. That's what we thought it was hiding behind,

202
00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:04.559
but it was actually in the timber about I guess

203
00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:08.639
maybe twenty five meters further back, so he was using

204
00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:11.559
those trees. And then, you know, being a hunter, when

205
00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:15.080
I walked up there that next morning, I was like, hey,

206
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:18.759
you guys, look at this trail. There's the grass trail

207
00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:24.000
through the logging slash. Almost looks like they removed all

208
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:27.440
of the twigs and branches and things like. It was

209
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:32.559
a perfect trail of grass in between the ferns and

210
00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:37.720
the replanted trees, you know, which were only about four

211
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:40.200
feet high, because we actually found a tree break in

212
00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:44.159
that same log slash area. But it almost looks like

213
00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:47.200
there's so much elp activity there, which you know it

214
00:12:47.240 --> 00:12:51.879
is because there's three logging slashes that the Sasquatches have

215
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:55.440
set it up that they know that it's where they

216
00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:59.440
can hide on the prevailing southeast wind or the northwest wind.

217
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:01.919
They got it up like you know, hunters set up

218
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:06.039
their blinds and their trails extremely interesting.

219
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:10.240
So this is an area then that you can take

220
00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:14.240
people on your expeditions or is this a totally different area?

221
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:18.000
Oh no, I can bring them on expeditions there. You know,

222
00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:20.480
it's I have a rule here, Peggy and I my

223
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:23.519
wife came up with I've been here going on twenty

224
00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:28.600
two months now managing Sasquatch Legend dot com. And I

225
00:13:28.679 --> 00:13:33.639
lived two blocks from the store, and I just sat said, Peggy,

226
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:35.799
I know we go down to Lake Fanol, we're talking

227
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:38.559
about going to Lake Ohazette. We're talking about going here

228
00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:42.279
all over half an hour drive. All the activity we're

229
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:44.799
getting is all within a half hour radius of the

230
00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:47.720
house and store. So let's make a rule we're going

231
00:13:47.799 --> 00:13:50.720
to stay within half an hour radius. That way, we're

232
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:52.879
not wasting gas and time. And you know we've got

233
00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:55.480
over thirty trail cameras out there, and when you're changing

234
00:13:55.559 --> 00:13:58.600
batteries and data cards, you know you can't be driving

235
00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:01.559
all over the Olympic penensus place is bass so at

236
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:04.240
half hour radius and it just shows you how many

237
00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:07.399
Sasquatches are here. So one of the things I did

238
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:10.799
in Canada because all my bush knowledge and Sasquatch knowledge

239
00:14:10.840 --> 00:14:14.879
to the years, is I was approached by some native

240
00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:21.519
tribes and GIS mapping and their resource departments wanted to

241
00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:26.080
know how to guestimate a population of sasquatch. And I said, well,

242
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.039
number one, you're not going to do it in the forest.

243
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:30.960
I said, you know, chances to seeing them in the

244
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:34.679
forest is slim to none. So you can't really just

245
00:14:34.759 --> 00:14:37.279
do it at shellfish beaches because there's so many beaches,

246
00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:39.600
you're never going to get a good number. I said,

247
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:45.159
the best way is tree structures and prominent geological features

248
00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:48.559
on rivers, creeks and streams that have salmon, steelhead and

249
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.879
other fish and waterfowl and different things that they eat.

250
00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:55.600
And I said, if we look at it, where every

251
00:14:55.720 --> 00:14:59.080
in Canada were metrics, So every ten kilometers of river,

252
00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:03.960
I'm finding that within ten to fourteen kilometers you'll find

253
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:10.240
a teepee structure, a boundary marker showing different clans of sasquatch.

254
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:12.320
We're the lower part of the whole river, where the

255
00:15:12.360 --> 00:15:15.039
mid part of whole river and where the upper clan

256
00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:18.200
up there where all the salmon spawn. So in that

257
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:22.639
ten kilometer zone seven miles where you have optimum shallow

258
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:27.759
water riffles where salmon and steelhead go up at night time,

259
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:33.120
so there's no predators like birds and eagles and wolves

260
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:37.120
and raccoons and river otters. They're just like World War

261
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:39.879
One soldiers going up the ladder across the barbed wire

262
00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:43.039
into no man's land at nighttime. It's just thousands of

263
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.480
salmon steel had going up hundreds of steel head. So

264
00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:49.679
the sasquatches will stand in those riffles, ankle deep and

265
00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:52.600
just bend down and grab the fish they want to eat,

266
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:56.240
fill their belly, bring up into the forest to their family.

267
00:15:56.919 --> 00:15:59.960
So we use a factor of four sasquatches for every

268
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:04.279
every ten kilometers seven miles with optimum shallow water. So

269
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:06.679
if you look at the whole river, we can estimate

270
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:09.200
that with the length of it, there's roughly twenty to

271
00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:12.399
twenty four sasquatches just on the whole river system and

272
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:16.799
its tributaries on the Olympic Peninsula. I did the analysis

273
00:16:17.120 --> 00:16:20.039
with the amount of salmon rivers and we come up

274
00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:22.320
with one hundred and sixty eight at two hundred and

275
00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:26.840
twenty sasquatches just on the Olympic Peninsula. So if you're

276
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:31.600
looking at a high concentration of sasquatches in North America,

277
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:35.799
one other place beats this. But I know that the

278
00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:38.919
Olympic Peninsula, outside of an Indian reserve, has the highest

279
00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:42.559
concentration of sasquatches in the United States that I know

280
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:43.240
of so far.

281
00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:47.279
That is wild. What's the other area that that's right

282
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:47.960
up there with it.

283
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:50.279
Vancouver Island.

284
00:16:50.440 --> 00:16:53.000
Ah okay, okay, well there you go, right, yeah, which

285
00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:54.559
you're very familiar with as well.

286
00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:58.200
Oh yeah, I grew up there at a lifetime grisztoper hunting

287
00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:02.440
guide off vancou Island and eco tourism operations commercial fish

288
00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:06.000
the entire British Columbia coast for over forty years. You know,

289
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:08.599
I've been to places in British Columbia most humans will

290
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:11.519
never get to and drop an anchor. And nighttime it's

291
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:13.359
a low tide. Hey, let's go to the beach dig

292
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:16.880
some clams cockles. Cockles are a type of clam which

293
00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:20.599
is a favorite food of the sasquatch and the humans

294
00:17:20.599 --> 00:17:22.599
as well. But you know, we might get three hundred

295
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:25.559
clams and one cockle in a dig, so you know,

296
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:29.119
they're pretty rare. And when we go digging clams commercially

297
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:32.880
or for food, we're digging fifteen hundred, two thousand pounds

298
00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:36.799
of clams and one night, one boatload of diggers. So

299
00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:39.480
when we're out there, you know, we'd hear the whistles,

300
00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:43.119
the chirps, the tree knocks, the tree being pushed down,

301
00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:46.119
the dead tree, and what it was was back when

302
00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:51.039
I was a teenager. It was Tommy was hungry, doesn't

303
00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:55.920
like us on their beach. Grab that box full of

304
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:58.440
cockles and bring it up to the tree line, you know,

305
00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:02.519
one hundred yards away, and you're walking up. Your throat's dry,

306
00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:06.039
you're shaking, you're terrified because you get up to the

307
00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:08.200
tree line, it's just a wall of black and you're

308
00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:10.480
throwing cockles in there and you're just waiting for big

309
00:18:10.519 --> 00:18:13.279
hairy arm to come out and grab you. But once

310
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:17.160
you do that, the sasquatches will give take the gift

311
00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:19.359
you give them and leave you alone, not make any

312
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:24.279
more noise. So that's the interaction I've had with sasquatch,

313
00:18:24.400 --> 00:18:26.599
right from being a child. When I was first taught

314
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:29.279
about the bush. They brought a bunch of us young

315
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:32.680
boys out and we anchored out. We dingy the shore.

316
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:34.880
And as soon as we got there, you know, high

317
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:39.200
tide the daytime, the one of the elders, hey, you

318
00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:41.279
young punks, get up here. We went up to the

319
00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:45.119
high tide mark and he said, look, broken trolley shells,

320
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:51.480
cockle shells, unlogged, big indentations in the gravel. He goes

321
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:55.279
those broken cockle shells, that's tone off the Sasquatch telling

322
00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:58.319
us we're digging this tide at low tide. At night,

323
00:18:58.359 --> 00:19:00.960
when the big low tide is here, you humans go

324
00:19:01.119 --> 00:19:04.160
somewhere else. So we're going to go out back out

325
00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:06.319
to the boat pull anchor and go a mile. One

326
00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:09.720
of the other directions go to a different shellfish beach.

327
00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:12.720
Truth that if there's no evidence of sasquatch, we will

328
00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:16.240
dig there that night. And that's the respect my tribe

329
00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:19.799
and many other coastal tribes have a Sasquatch. We don't

330
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:22.759
just go digging on a beach. We make sure it's

331
00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:26.200
holling off with sasquatch isn't using that beach, because that's

332
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:27.359
very disrespectful.

333
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:33.200
That's extremely interesting. A question. I have a question about

334
00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:37.240
the regalia that's behind you, and people can see this

335
00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:42.400
in the YouTube version. Of course, I've always wondered when

336
00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:47.599
you see these masks, a lot of the representations of Sasquatch,

337
00:19:48.200 --> 00:19:52.319
they seem to have pursed lips. Is there a reason

338
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:57.480
why these masks are made with the pursed lips.

339
00:19:57.640 --> 00:20:03.400
Because they're always going whoop, okay, whoop, and we do

340
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:05.640
when we actually go on the potlot floor. You come

341
00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:08.400
out of the camellias the screen that enters you onto

342
00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:10.920
the floor, and the chiefs and drummers are all to

343
00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:13.079
your left. The first thing you do is you do

344
00:20:13.119 --> 00:20:17.119
an anti clockwise circle. It's our etiquette. And then you

345
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:19.519
enter the floor and the first thing you do is

346
00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:26.359
you rub your eyes, yawn, rub your eyes again, walk

347
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:31.799
a bit like a sasquatch, and you whoop, whoop, whoop whoop.

348
00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:35.200
Start your walk again, and then you reach out like

349
00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:39.559
you're grabbing misbehaving children my family, throw them in the basket.

350
00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:44.319
Because when you're when you're young, you're told Tommy, you

351
00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:48.240
behave yourself. You start up, quit acting up, was watching

352
00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:52.119
you misbehave, don't do your chores, pull a temper tantrum,

353
00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:55.200
don't eat your food. Tono's gonna come at night where

354
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:57.119
you're sleep and reach in with big hairy arm and

355
00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:00.519
grab you. Rub spruce sap from the tree, your eyes

356
00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:03.160
so you're blind and can't open them, and she's gonna

357
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:05.440
throw you in that basket on her back. She's going

358
00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:08.200
to carry you into the forest, deep up a mountain

359
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:10.640
to her invisible home. That's why we can't find to

360
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:13.400
the sasquatch. And that's Whally she's gonna boil you up

361
00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:15.720
and eat you to the bones. So he's smart enough.

362
00:21:16.519 --> 00:21:18.359
I remember that, you know, as a young kid in

363
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.279
Alert Bay. I went and my buddies and we went

364
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:24.160
down to the No Offense, but what we called the

365
00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:27.640
White End because Alert Bay is like a telephone handle

366
00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:30.839
and the old days shaped island. The north half is

367
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:33.160
the Indian Reserve where we lived, in the south half

368
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:36.799
is the municipality of Alert Bay, which has the non

369
00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:39.519
Indians living there. So we went to the White End

370
00:21:39.559 --> 00:21:42.200
to the Chinese corner store. I guess you could say.

371
00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:45.519
It was on pilings over the beach, and we're bought candy,

372
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:47.559
played on the beach and alson. I looked up and

373
00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:50.240
I noticed that the sun was going behind Vancouver Island

374
00:21:50.279 --> 00:21:52.880
to the west, and I'm like, oh no, I'm misbehaving.

375
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:55.119
I got to get home, and my little legs, I'm running.

376
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:57.960
I got to the shipyards on the beach and I

377
00:21:58.000 --> 00:22:00.960
stopped and I peered around the brown house sit the graveyard,

378
00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:04.880
and there's all the big memorial totem poles standing up,

379
00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:08.480
all the different crest figures of the chieftains that passed,

380
00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:12.319
and of course five of them with carved at the base,

381
00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:15.359
signifying the highest ranked crests of the Qualkwalk. You walk

382
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:19.079
in the chief that passed with their sleepy eyes, their

383
00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:22.319
puckered lips, their big breasts, their outstretched arms, and all

384
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:24.960
that kept thinking was, oh, no, Tuno was gonna get me.

385
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:28.720
The sun's going down. I'm misbehaving. I'm just sprinting. And

386
00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:30.920
I was in this car. Horn was honking. It was

387
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:33.640
one of my family members. Tommy, what the hell are

388
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:35.839
you crying for getting the car? I'll bring you home.

389
00:22:35.880 --> 00:22:36.720
It's getting dark.

390
00:22:38.599 --> 00:22:43.319
That's funny. Wow. One of the first interviews I did

391
00:22:43.400 --> 00:22:46.240
that was focused on Bigfoot was with an older gentleman

392
00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:51.319
from Vancouver Island. It was really interesting and it was

393
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:54.039
about a certain area. I'm just curious if you know

394
00:22:54.119 --> 00:22:56.680
anything about this area to do with Bigfoot. I think

395
00:22:56.680 --> 00:22:59.079
it was called Gold River. Have you heard anything?

396
00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:10.240
Well, yeah, the Taxana Indian Reservation is there. One of

397
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:15.279
the Machalattemucalt tribe and in the New Channel with First Nation,

398
00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:18.160
the West Coast tribes, twenty four of them out there,

399
00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:23.519
but the Machalattemuclat. I have friends in there, and Peggy

400
00:23:23.559 --> 00:23:27.319
and I went there probably twenty twelve in investigating, and

401
00:23:28.039 --> 00:23:30.720
one of the elders was telling us all about the

402
00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:34.880
high high amount of activity on the Indian reservation the river.

403
00:23:35.640 --> 00:23:39.680
Told us that they have a canyon and the young

404
00:23:39.720 --> 00:23:42.759
guys and girls will climbed down ropes to their fishing

405
00:23:42.839 --> 00:23:46.359
station to catch the sakey salmon, the reds. And I

406
00:23:46.359 --> 00:23:49.599
guess this one guy was going down there one time

407
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.000
and he was just setting up, getting his fishing gear

408
00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:57.119
ready to catch saky. All of a sudden, bay all

409
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:02.359
he saw was his big feet and hair, and all

410
00:24:02.359 --> 00:24:05.000
of a sudden, the sasquatch stood up, took its head

411
00:24:05.039 --> 00:24:08.240
what they got, and the eyeball locked each other. He's

412
00:24:08.240 --> 00:24:11.920
on the shore and sasquatches in the river looked at

413
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:18.759
each other. Sasquatches turned and went downstream. But scared of

414
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:21.880
that Indian kid, I guess, he said, I don't know

415
00:24:21.920 --> 00:24:24.599
what to do. He goes fish. You're not fishing? He said,

416
00:24:24.599 --> 00:24:26.400
heck good, and I'm not fishing right now. And he

417
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:29.200
went scampering up the rope again to get out of there.

418
00:24:29.759 --> 00:24:32.039
But the whole islands I got that's why they prefer

419
00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:37.119
to it as Ape Islands and Vancouver Island. It's well

420
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:40.480
it's the highest concentration of wood carvings of Sasquatch on Earth.

421
00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:44.359
When you get up to Camboll River, the lea our

422
00:24:44.559 --> 00:24:48.519
southern tribe members and family, and then further north you

423
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:51.759
get to Cambo River, the city, He's got the highest

424
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:55.680
concentration of wood carvings of Sasquatch on Earth, even paintings

425
00:24:55.839 --> 00:25:00.000
or have a carving competition every June and Campbell River

426
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:03.799
and there's Sasquatches all through the town. The museum, and

427
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:08.200
then the native families all have their kildness, their box

428
00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:11.519
of treasure, trunks filled with masks, and of course every

429
00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:16.200
family has one or many more tune off carvings masks

430
00:25:16.240 --> 00:25:19.799
to bring to life what an ancestor saw at potlatch.

431
00:25:20.440 --> 00:25:22.960
And then you have the native art galleries and artists

432
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:26.759
that are all carving toun off Sasquatch and bookwasch because

433
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:31.599
that's what the buyers want. Everyone, especially with me advocating

434
00:25:31.720 --> 00:25:37.119
Tona to the world, to social media websites, television shows,

435
00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:40.400
Sasquatch conferences, and of course pot and video casting and

436
00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:45.079
radio shows. People that are Sasquatch enthusiasts and have collections

437
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:48.440
all want to have a chun off Sasquatch mask. I

438
00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:51.079
got one, and you know, I got a commissioner. I've

439
00:25:51.079 --> 00:25:53.880
got one over there on the table that I've got

440
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:56.079
to start finished standing and then i got to carve it,

441
00:25:56.200 --> 00:25:58.599
paint it, put the hair on it. That's going to

442
00:25:58.680 --> 00:26:02.079
New York, Upper New York eight. You know. So Chuonoflas

443
00:26:02.119 --> 00:26:05.000
are very wanted by people. And then when you get

444
00:26:05.039 --> 00:26:10.000
to the North Island, the community of Port Hardy with

445
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:14.359
the chok East the Wallace Quadial tribe in the south

446
00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:18.519
of the city's Indian reserve and lands. They have carvings

447
00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:21.680
all over in Chuonacha. And then on the north side

448
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:25.799
of the town is Chokwadi, the Casal Nakodo tribes. They

449
00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:29.079
live there and there I just saw it tonight they're

450
00:26:29.079 --> 00:26:31.960
having a grand opening of their ceremonial big house they've

451
00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:35.799
been building for the last three years, June fourteenth and fifteenth.

452
00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:39.279
I'll be there because I want to see the Chunakra

453
00:26:39.440 --> 00:26:44.000
mask being danced on the floor and get pictures and memory.

454
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:46.319
But I also want to see because I know darn

455
00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:48.599
well they're gonna have a chuonocha carved in one of

456
00:26:48.640 --> 00:26:53.200
the vertical house posts inside, or a welcoming pole or

457
00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:55.920
a totem pole outside. So I want to go see

458
00:26:55.960 --> 00:26:58.559
that and see the newest of the carved tunachus and

459
00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:00.039
big huge law.

460
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:05.799
That is really really cool. I have gotten the privilege

461
00:27:05.880 --> 00:27:12.000
to interview different First Nations individuals over the years, and

462
00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:19.799
something that most of them have shared is that sometimes

463
00:27:19.799 --> 00:27:23.359
when there's a ceremony that's held, there will actually be

464
00:27:24.200 --> 00:27:29.960
interactions with sasquatch that'll happen in conjunction with the ceremony.

465
00:27:29.960 --> 00:27:33.359
Have you ever experienced anything like that where things will

466
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:37.319
start to happen when there's different ceremonies that are taking place.

467
00:27:39.039 --> 00:27:43.559
I belong to the Hamas society, human flesh users, cannibal society.

468
00:27:43.640 --> 00:27:46.039
We don't practice that no more. We haven't for at

469
00:27:46.119 --> 00:27:49.559
least three weeks. No, I'm just kidding. We haven't sincerely

470
00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:54.079
nineteen hundreds, late eighteen hundreds. But we were the secret servants,

471
00:27:54.160 --> 00:27:57.200
agents of the chieftains, the ultimate protector of the chiefs.

472
00:27:57.200 --> 00:27:59.640
So we were the fearst of warriors. We were, you know,

473
00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:03.920
and our society is very secretive and we have a

474
00:28:04.440 --> 00:28:07.759
border that we do not cross. So the answer to

475
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:11.920
that question pertaining to my society, I can't answer. That, sure,

476
00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:15.000
But I do know because I had commission from two

477
00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:19.720
different Indian tribes that we're having their ceremonial celebrations. And

478
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:22.200
I went to the chiefs and asked, is it our

479
00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:24.960
right if I investigate sasquatch and the bushes around your

480
00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:30.200
ceremonial gathering. Sure, go ahead, just don't get eaten by them,

481
00:28:31.640 --> 00:28:35.079
because they're drawn by the music and singing and the

482
00:28:35.240 --> 00:28:40.720
smelts barbecued salmon cooking and other seafoods and meats. And

483
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:44.079
there's a lot of reports about when we have our

484
00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:48.559
big celebrations, be a potlatch or other ceremonies, and the

485
00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:52.079
drummings taking place. And you got to remember that my tribe,

486
00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:55.079
the hawkwalk you want, you know, you'll see us with

487
00:28:55.160 --> 00:28:58.880
the deer drums, skin drums. But when you go to

488
00:28:58.920 --> 00:29:02.720
a potlatch, you'll see you row upon row maybe twenty thirty,

489
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:06.799
close to forty chieftains, and the chief holding the potlatch

490
00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:09.519
with his helicum as chief speaker and his talking stick.

491
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:12.960
And then behind the chiefs is a hollow cedar log

492
00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:17.119
about three feet in diameter, maybe thirty feet long, and

493
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:20.400
that's for the drummers with hardwood batons pound on it,

494
00:29:20.960 --> 00:29:23.519
so when they're drumming, you can put your hand on

495
00:29:23.559 --> 00:29:26.319
the wooden bench you're sitting on and feel the vibrations.

496
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:30.960
The whole kilksie big houses rumble boom, boom boom as

497
00:29:31.000 --> 00:29:35.559
the song is being sung and the drumming takes place.

498
00:29:35.599 --> 00:29:38.000
And then of course on the floor with all of

499
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:45.000
these vertical and horizontal house posts all carved, the cress figures, thunderbird, eagles, whales, griztey, bears, tonahral,

500
00:29:45.400 --> 00:29:48.519
you name it. And then around that firelight, the only

501
00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:51.160
light in the big house. It's like a spiritual realm.

502
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:54.759
And that booming drumming like thunder and you're witnessing a

503
00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:58.359
tonahra being danced and you look at it as passes

504
00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:01.839
the house pool and Cambell River in their ceremonial big house.

505
00:30:01.880 --> 00:30:04.960
And it's the largest interior wood carving of a tun

506
00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:08.000
of sasquatch. And you'll see it on my Facebook group

507
00:30:08.079 --> 00:30:11.440
and website, but it is a site to behold to

508
00:30:11.480 --> 00:30:15.839
see a tuna dancer going buy that tuna house post.

509
00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:17.680
It's just this makes your heart pound.

510
00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:22.440
Wow, that's that is extremely fascinating you. You will perform

511
00:30:22.519 --> 00:30:26.519
these dances sometimes at different Bigfoot conferences.

512
00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:30.640
Correct, Oh, absolutely, yeah, that's I just found out today

513
00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:33.519
and I got invited to two different conferences today, one

514
00:30:33.519 --> 00:30:36.440
on Vancouver Island in May and another one here in

515
00:30:36.559 --> 00:30:38.839
Washington State. By the sounds of it, at the end

516
00:30:38.880 --> 00:30:41.839
of September. They're just in the initial planning stages, but

517
00:30:42.279 --> 00:30:46.319
the Vancouver Island May third weekend of May has been set.

518
00:30:46.400 --> 00:30:49.559
Tickets are on sale. I'll be posting that on Sasquatch

519
00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:52.640
Island and other groups because it's going to be a

520
00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:54.960
good conference. You know, you're going to see Being Peggy

521
00:30:55.039 --> 00:31:00.240
perform with our regalia of Tucus, and I'm going to

522
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:03.119
talk to them about maybe getting another native tribe to

523
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:06.200
perform theirs as well, so it'll be a good conference.

524
00:31:07.079 --> 00:31:10.160
But yeah, and then people come on my expeditions. You

525
00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:12.720
know it's extra because happy Wife, Happy life. You know,

526
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:14.359
I got to get her off the couch to put

527
00:31:14.359 --> 00:31:17.559
the regalia on. But you know, she charges a few dollars,

528
00:31:17.599 --> 00:31:20.559
but she'll bring out the regalias and perform it for

529
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:23.680
you right here on the lawn outside, or we bring

530
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:27.480
it into one of the old growth grows just outside

531
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:30.480
of town with trees that are twelve foot in diameter

532
00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:36.880
and we she'll perform the regalias out there free. That's buckets.

533
00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:42.319
Working at a place like Sasquatch the legend. And I

534
00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:45.440
would assume this is only going to get wilder with

535
00:31:45.559 --> 00:31:49.240
the museum opening up. That you've got to be taking

536
00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:53.160
in some reports. You must be hearing stories from people

537
00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:54.680
that are visiting your store.

538
00:31:56.079 --> 00:31:59.160
I was talking to Shane Courson today from the Olympic Project.

539
00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:01.319
You laugh at he goes, how do you keep up

540
00:32:01.359 --> 00:32:04.480
with all these reports of like I tell you about,

541
00:32:04.599 --> 00:32:06.599
it's this constant. If it ain't coming in by the

542
00:32:06.640 --> 00:32:11.000
moccasin modern day moks and telegraph messenger and emails, it's

543
00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:13.960
someone phoning me or showing up at the store or

544
00:32:14.079 --> 00:32:16.759
calling me to their property. I got like half a

545
00:32:16.799 --> 00:32:19.160
dozen people just in and around Forks. I gotta go

546
00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:21.880
troth out their properties and track and see what's going

547
00:32:21.920 --> 00:32:25.039
on there because of all the activity. And then with

548
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:27.519
the island over on the other side of Huget Sound,

549
00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:31.559
it's a heavy populated chunk of turf island. But on

550
00:32:31.599 --> 00:32:34.599
the north side it's a big, you know, couple thousand

551
00:32:35.079 --> 00:32:38.839
acres of timberland. There's a family that's gone like Donkey

552
00:32:38.920 --> 00:32:43.559
Kong in their backyard with sasquatch activity. Our gift inside

553
00:32:43.559 --> 00:32:49.039
of the Watch your ranch. You know, we had the

554
00:32:49.079 --> 00:32:53.440
gifting station we put out the next day the garlic clove,

555
00:32:53.599 --> 00:32:56.839
three garlet cloves have been pulled from the bulb. The

556
00:32:56.920 --> 00:33:00.000
apples are gone, the potatoes have been docked on the ground.

557
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:03.839
They don't like potatoes and sweet potatoes. So a couple

558
00:33:03.839 --> 00:33:06.640
of days later, more food was put on the stump

559
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:11.960
and five apples were put in a clear plastic container. Well,

560
00:33:12.000 --> 00:33:15.200
we went there Saturday morning and the plastic containers open,

561
00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:19.200
empty line on the ground. Hooley, being an ex police officer,

562
00:33:19.279 --> 00:33:21.599
put a stick in it. She's now got it to

563
00:33:21.680 --> 00:33:24.960
dry to hopefully pull fingerprints off. So you know, it's

564
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:27.160
this lawn like Donkey Klong. And then I got people

565
00:33:27.240 --> 00:33:30.039
just walking in going, oh, yeah, you should go down

566
00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:33.000
to the clinic across from the hospital walk that trail.

567
00:33:33.039 --> 00:33:35.559
I said, yeah, I know there's a female sass squadron

568
00:33:35.559 --> 00:33:38.160
of a young one. You know about her? I said, yeah,

569
00:33:38.240 --> 00:33:40.240
I get about a report once a month, a voter,

570
00:33:40.839 --> 00:33:44.160
you get a picture. No. I was just so floored

571
00:33:44.200 --> 00:33:46.359
when I seen it that it just and besides that,

572
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:49.680
it just looked at me, jumped up, grabbed it baby,

573
00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:51.720
and just bolted in the bush. And I didn't have

574
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:56.640
enough time to pull myself. And then we got the

575
00:33:56.839 --> 00:34:00.279
couple on the east side of town. And what they're

576
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:04.799
doing is they're working the urban edge because they've learned that.

577
00:34:05.839 --> 00:34:09.480
Like what happened at the ranch when two weeks ago

578
00:34:09.559 --> 00:34:12.639
and we went there before we started gifting, one of

579
00:34:12.679 --> 00:34:17.559
the older ladies on the property said, someone on my house,

580
00:34:18.880 --> 00:34:21.079
come in. I thought it was one of my family.

581
00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:25.920
No one came in a few minutes later, got up

582
00:34:25.960 --> 00:34:28.280
and I went to the door, opened it, went outside nothing.

583
00:34:28.840 --> 00:34:30.920
I said, Oh, it's a sasquat bang in your house.

584
00:34:31.519 --> 00:34:35.880
The rivers are in blowout flood condition now and salmon

585
00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:38.639
run is tapered right off to nothing in the steelhead

586
00:34:38.679 --> 00:34:41.360
that are here in deep water and it's very deep

587
00:34:41.400 --> 00:34:46.000
and fast moving. So elk aren't here right now. And

588
00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:49.000
what they're doing is pounding on your house. Hey, we're hungry,

589
00:34:49.119 --> 00:34:51.599
feed us. I said, someone in this neighborhood, have you

590
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:55.000
got a pounding sasquatch? It means someone in your neighborhood

591
00:34:55.119 --> 00:35:02.280
or in their seasonal territorial migration, which is basically not

592
00:35:02.400 --> 00:35:05.440
likely you hear on Expedition Bigfoot. It goes from northern

593
00:35:05.440 --> 00:35:09.800
California through Oregon to Washington State and branches off to

594
00:35:09.920 --> 00:35:15.119
Olympic Peninsula and beyond Washington into Canada. Ps Sasquatches like

595
00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:18.400
any other Indian tribe, they have small territories that they've

596
00:35:18.440 --> 00:35:21.840
been in for thousands of years and that's where they stay.

597
00:35:22.280 --> 00:35:24.840
And the odd one, when they get kicked out of

598
00:35:24.880 --> 00:35:27.360
the house, they go trumpet. And that's where we see

599
00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:31.679
the Sasquatches in the alpine ice fields Squamish and another one.

600
00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:34.119
I can't remember where that one's from, but those are

601
00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:37.679
trumpers and they're trumping out of their territory, going to

602
00:35:37.719 --> 00:35:41.519
find a mate and new territory, establish their clan. Because

603
00:35:41.599 --> 00:35:44.400
when you're bumping uglies, you can't bump uglies or your family.

604
00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:47.880
You've got to spread your seed. The other blood's way

605
00:35:47.960 --> 00:35:51.320
far away. So it's nature's code that we don't interbreed.

606
00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:56.599
And unfortunately in Omaha Indian Reserve, the two Sasquatches I

607
00:35:56.639 --> 00:36:02.400
saw on my flir scout hang lips that FA asked

608
00:36:02.440 --> 00:36:07.800
you to alcohol syndrome, glazed doughnut face, that long room walk,

609
00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:11.760
and all I saw was in breeding because all of

610
00:36:11.760 --> 00:36:15.239
the forest around Omaha Indians, theer has been removed industrial

611
00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:19.360
farms for generations. And my boot's on the ground. Tribe

612
00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:24.039
member Lucas White who's investigating down there, and he's coming

613
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:27.920
back saying, yeah, they're concerned that there's an overpopulation of

614
00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:31.679
their kind. Seetonga, keep her of the medicine, the sasquatch.

615
00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:35.400
Right that man that area. I'm not too far away

616
00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:38.360
from that area. I'm about a few hours. I mean,

617
00:36:38.480 --> 00:36:43.840
the stories that come out of the Omaha tribe and Satanga,

618
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:47.079
I mean, there's very very intense stuff. There's a few

619
00:36:47.119 --> 00:36:51.280
documentaries out there people can watch as well. But you

620
00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:56.599
know something that I wanted to to ask he specifically,

621
00:36:57.519 --> 00:37:00.639
there's a gentleman I used to talk to quite a bit.

622
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:03.840
He's no longer with us, unfortunately. His name was Henry Franzoni,

623
00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:07.280
and he was down more in He did a lot

624
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:11.320
of research in Oregon and he would always tell stories

625
00:37:11.400 --> 00:37:16.760
about how he would hear from First Nations individuals that

626
00:37:18.679 --> 00:37:21.519
you could be walking along and all of a sudden

627
00:37:21.880 --> 00:37:28.639
you could actually start to you could be moving and

628
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:31.559
not be meaning to move, and they could actually have

629
00:37:31.719 --> 00:37:34.559
you walk off a cliff if they wanted to. Is

630
00:37:34.599 --> 00:37:36.800
that anything that you've ever heard of where you know

631
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:40.840
they can control movement or you know you can't move

632
00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:42.079
or anything like that.

633
00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:48.400
I got over around thirty encounters with sasquatch. Like I've

634
00:37:48.400 --> 00:37:51.119
lived in bush for months at a time. Sometimes I

635
00:37:51.199 --> 00:37:53.719
hated humans back in the nineties and early two thousands.

636
00:37:53.719 --> 00:37:56.360
I just disappear, They'll live like a sasquatch. Run out

637
00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:59.480
of cigarettes and coffee in first two weeks, and after

638
00:37:59.519 --> 00:38:01.800
that it was just go to feralism and live like

639
00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:05.199
a sasquatch. Just going for it. Took a look and

640
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:08.360
I worked out there as well. But you know, all

641
00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:10.480
the experience that I've had, I've never had what I

642
00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:15.480
termed wu never had that control of your walking to

643
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:18.599
walk you off a cliff, which would be mind speaking,

644
00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:25.079
seeing them turn to orbs, cloaking, portal jumping, UFO flying,

645
00:38:25.559 --> 00:38:27.760
I've never had that. Like, I don't even waste my

646
00:38:27.800 --> 00:38:31.559
times with excess. They're naturally. You know, if the sasquatch

647
00:38:31.599 --> 00:38:34.679
is going to go through time and effort to build something,

648
00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:38.119
it's going to be a tree bake twist, a teepee structure,

649
00:38:38.119 --> 00:38:44.639
a lean to a weaving bundle. Like Marie Dumont with

650
00:38:44.760 --> 00:38:51.039
her Mid Florida sasquatch investigations, she sent a bunch posted

651
00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:53.119
a bunch of weaving pictures. So I reached out to

652
00:38:53.159 --> 00:38:56.920
the Shamans that I interact with the knowledgeable North American

653
00:38:56.920 --> 00:38:59.639
Indians in Canada and the US, and they got back

654
00:38:59.719 --> 00:39:01.800
to me a couple of days ago, and I phoned

655
00:39:01.840 --> 00:39:04.280
Marie yesterday. I said, Marie, that weave you have of

656
00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:09.559
the head shaped with the long vines hanging out. I said,

657
00:39:09.559 --> 00:39:11.719
it's a female looking for a mate. And she's saying,

658
00:39:11.719 --> 00:39:13.599
this is how big my head is and how long

659
00:39:13.679 --> 00:39:16.119
my hair is. The length of the hair is a

660
00:39:16.159 --> 00:39:18.840
sign of beauty, the longer it is, and that's what

661
00:39:18.960 --> 00:39:24.199
she's displaying. Then, when Hooley gave me all of those

662
00:39:26.199 --> 00:39:29.079
tree breaks and twists and everything, she gave me one

663
00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:35.599
that looks like a cocoon and it's all wrapped and everything,

664
00:39:35.599 --> 00:39:38.719
and I'm like, oh, a memorial wrap. And what it

665
00:39:38.800 --> 00:39:41.480
is is when sasquatches have a death in their clan,

666
00:39:42.119 --> 00:39:46.679
sometimes they'll take a tree break twist and they'll wrap

667
00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:49.880
it like a cocoon. You know, they're white gaps, but

668
00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:54.000
it looks like a cocoon because the numerous reports I've

669
00:39:54.039 --> 00:39:58.079
gotten from elders about how their ancestor or father went

670
00:39:58.199 --> 00:40:01.119
into the cave with the sasquatch, saw the burial ground.

671
00:40:01.679 --> 00:40:05.519
The Sasquatches were all in fetal positions, wrapped in three

672
00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:12.719
strand cedar bark or whisped those flexible branches and woven

673
00:40:13.239 --> 00:40:16.599
three strand or braided or what have you. So that

674
00:40:17.400 --> 00:40:21.760
bundle cocoon was just a memorial to tell other Sasquatches

675
00:40:21.800 --> 00:40:25.280
that one of our families passed and we've cocooned them,

676
00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:27.960
bundled them up and put them to rest for eternity. Now,

677
00:40:28.719 --> 00:40:32.880
So it's Sasquatches because I've been very fortunate because I

678
00:40:32.920 --> 00:40:34.880
was born in Indian so I can talk to Indians

679
00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:37.000
and they open up, they don't hug Indian and zip

680
00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:40.519
mouth and don't talk. And then not because I have

681
00:40:40.639 --> 00:40:45.000
that Sasquatch celebrity status because of been in different movies

682
00:40:45.119 --> 00:40:48.199
and television shows, podcast video. Because he didn't name it,

683
00:40:48.599 --> 00:40:50.719
so I'm kind of like a shiny item. It's like, oh,

684
00:40:51.440 --> 00:40:54.119
it's tall sasquatch either, Can I get a picture with him?

685
00:40:54.159 --> 00:40:54.360
Share?

686
00:40:54.480 --> 00:40:57.119
Come on, let's go, you know, And it's really humbling,

687
00:40:57.159 --> 00:41:00.000
but at the same turn, it's opening doors of people

688
00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:03.039
reaching out to me or opening up to me about

689
00:41:03.159 --> 00:41:06.880
their stories of Sasquatch and the shamans. You know, I

690
00:41:06.920 --> 00:41:11.599
was taught that by three different tribes that Sasquatches live

691
00:41:12.159 --> 00:41:15.480
one hundred to one hundred and thirty years old, and

692
00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:18.400
some one hundred and fifty and older, the white ones

693
00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:21.360
and gray ones. They're really really old. And of course

694
00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:23.960
one of the shaman ladies I asked, they said, how

695
00:41:23.960 --> 00:41:29.239
do they get so old? Couch corporal punishment smacked me

696
00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:33.599
upside the head. I was like, what you listen to

697
00:41:33.599 --> 00:41:36.440
what I've been teaching you for five days? See Tonga

698
00:41:36.559 --> 00:41:38.800
keep her the medicine we call them. They've forgotten more

699
00:41:38.800 --> 00:41:42.079
about medicinal remedies and poultices and we will ever know.

700
00:41:42.679 --> 00:41:46.280
And that's why I've asked the question, is your tribe

701
00:41:46.280 --> 00:41:49.880
shaman if they don't get past the knowledge passed on

702
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:52.159
by older one because he died maybe in the old

703
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:55.760
days from disease or animal attack or warfare or drowning

704
00:41:56.360 --> 00:41:59.119
or nowadays like that one shaman who hit a telephone

705
00:41:59.119 --> 00:42:02.840
pole coming from theo and killed himself. His grandson had

706
00:42:02.880 --> 00:42:05.519
to step up and this was five years ago. Would say,

707
00:42:05.559 --> 00:42:09.039
I volunteer, and he disappeared into their bush, and three

708
00:42:09.079 --> 00:42:11.239
and a half years later he came back out. He says,

709
00:42:11.239 --> 00:42:15.000
I now have the knowledge of Peter Shaman, the medicine person,

710
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:19.159
because he had did his Diane good Old Jane Jane

711
00:42:19.199 --> 00:42:23.719
good old Diane fosse interaction with his local Sasquatches and

712
00:42:23.800 --> 00:42:28.039
communicated with them to learn the poultices and remedies and

713
00:42:28.119 --> 00:42:31.119
medicinal plants. So some of our tribes, like a lot

714
00:42:31.159 --> 00:42:33.880
of people go, oh, how do I become a good

715
00:42:34.039 --> 00:42:38.079
investigator or researcher? Bite your tongue. There's no such thing

716
00:42:38.119 --> 00:42:41.440
as a sasquatch researcher. Anyone who says they're a researchers

717
00:42:41.480 --> 00:42:46.480
the egomaniac and got fat head. Because until someone gets

718
00:42:46.519 --> 00:42:50.400
pictures chrispy and clear of a sasquatch that National Geographics

719
00:42:50.400 --> 00:42:52.559
is going to put on their magazine and put an

720
00:42:52.679 --> 00:42:56.480
editorial inside, then they become a researcher. Until then, we're

721
00:42:56.519 --> 00:42:59.559
all bumbling, stumbling investigators. So don't use the R word.

722
00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:02.800
And I said, if you want to be a good investigator,

723
00:43:02.800 --> 00:43:05.199
you got to learn the number one thing about sasquatch

724
00:43:05.760 --> 00:43:09.039
you will always as the hairless by petle, be respectful

725
00:43:09.079 --> 00:43:14.199
of them. You will never disrespect them. They stop, turn around,

726
00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:17.599
put your hands out like that. I'm going that way,

727
00:43:17.880 --> 00:43:19.400
and go one to eighty and go back where you

728
00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:21.760
came from, because they're just telling you by tree knocking,

729
00:43:22.320 --> 00:43:25.320
we don't want you here. And that's why that TV

730
00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:28.880
shown in fourteen seasons never found the Bigfoot because they're

731
00:43:28.880 --> 00:43:32.880
always knocking on trees in the Sasquatches home telling them stop,

732
00:43:32.960 --> 00:43:36.079
turn around and go back where you come from. How disrespectful.

733
00:43:36.239 --> 00:43:39.000
And that's why the Sasquatch is just walked away from them.

734
00:43:39.519 --> 00:43:44.960
So know one that Sasquatches, it's all about respect. Reach

735
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:47.880
out to where you're going to investigate the local Indian tribe.

736
00:43:48.960 --> 00:43:51.840
Maybe bring some gifts of tobacco and other things and

737
00:43:51.960 --> 00:43:55.320
ask them permission and protocol. If you can investigate Sasquatch

738
00:43:55.320 --> 00:43:58.679
in their traditional territories. They may let you, they may not.

739
00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:01.440
They may even invite wins. The engineers say, oh, we're

740
00:44:01.480 --> 00:44:04.480
overrun with Sasquatches on our ds. Come on in, bring

741
00:44:04.519 --> 00:44:07.599
your cameras, bring your trail cameras. Johnny down the street,

742
00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:10.360
my cousin, he'll help you. He's always running into him

743
00:44:10.360 --> 00:44:15.239
when he's hunting. And you've learned the first point about

744
00:44:15.280 --> 00:44:18.519
being a good investigator to be respectful. And then when

745
00:44:18.599 --> 00:44:23.079
with the Indians learn their language. Hello, I come in peace,

746
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:26.719
I mean no harm. I gift you food. Goodbye, so

747
00:44:26.840 --> 00:44:29.440
me and my territories. And I hear tree knocking or

748
00:44:29.480 --> 00:44:34.960
I see them yo jona Hello. I don't know who

749
00:44:34.960 --> 00:44:41.360
you are, Sasquatch won what are you up to? Let

750
00:44:41.440 --> 00:44:44.840
us turn and walk away? But respect and that's what

751
00:44:44.880 --> 00:44:50.199
it's all about. So no one that level of respect

752
00:44:50.239 --> 00:44:53.079
and learning that language. And as you now can tell

753
00:44:53.159 --> 00:44:56.159
by your body language and people listening, I know a

754
00:44:56.199 --> 00:44:59.480
little bit more than most people about Sasquatch. So one

755
00:44:59.519 --> 00:45:01.599
of the things that I'm working on. As I'm driving

756
00:45:01.639 --> 00:45:05.159
on the highway to Port Angele's and I see Klahouia campground,

757
00:45:06.119 --> 00:45:08.480
and I remember when I was part of the twenty

758
00:45:08.519 --> 00:45:14.880
ten Winter Olympics, when I represented the Provincial Indian Tourism Association,

759
00:45:14.960 --> 00:45:18.440
I was its chairman, and we coined the term Klahowia.

760
00:45:18.679 --> 00:45:22.639
It's from the Chinook trade dialect that all Indians knew

761
00:45:23.039 --> 00:45:26.559
across sasquaj Island, North America. So that when they came

762
00:45:26.599 --> 00:45:30.599
across each other. Even though I speak a little bit

763
00:45:30.599 --> 00:45:32.239
of Claucula, but in the old days I would have

764
00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:35.000
been fluent in Claqwala. But I meet my mother's family

765
00:45:35.039 --> 00:45:38.519
in Saskatchewan, the Central Plains who speak Cree, I don't

766
00:45:38.519 --> 00:45:41.400
know to say, don say hello, so I say Klahowia.

767
00:45:41.840 --> 00:45:44.639
It's universal hello, how are you doing? And then they'd

768
00:45:44.639 --> 00:45:48.280
answer in Schnook. So the Chinook trade dialect was known

769
00:45:48.400 --> 00:45:51.039
all through North America. Then contact comes and we get

770
00:45:51.079 --> 00:45:59.760
introduced to trappers, explorers, prospectors, land developers, and railway survey teams.

771
00:45:59.840 --> 00:46:02.920
And they don't speak the Indian dialect, but they do

772
00:46:03.079 --> 00:46:06.480
learn Chinock. But they also when the Indian's talking to

773
00:46:06.559 --> 00:46:10.800
them in Chnuck and he non Indian offers him sugar,

774
00:46:11.440 --> 00:46:16.239
the Indian goes, ooh, that's good. What is that shuqua sugar?

775
00:46:16.760 --> 00:46:19.719
The Indians couldn't say are, so we say in Chinook

776
00:46:19.880 --> 00:46:24.280
shuquah for sugar, capoo stuff for cabbage. It's Polish, but

777
00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:28.079
it's in a Chnook trade in a dialect. And skukum

778
00:46:28.159 --> 00:46:32.480
chuk big salt water. So if Sasquatches can live for

779
00:46:32.559 --> 00:46:36.480
one hundred to just below two hundred years. It means

780
00:46:36.519 --> 00:46:44.840
they're great grandfathers, grant grandmothers possibly still understand Chinook. So

781
00:46:44.960 --> 00:46:48.920
I've ordered a Chinuck dialect, but that I'm gonna learn

782
00:46:49.159 --> 00:46:51.800
Chinock so that when I'm out here like I did

783
00:46:51.840 --> 00:46:54.880
on the whole river in July last year. Steve and I.

784
00:46:54.960 --> 00:46:57.440
He's a rafting guy. That's why we do the expeditions

785
00:46:57.480 --> 00:47:00.280
on the different rivers with his raft and bring people

786
00:47:00.280 --> 00:47:04.000
on Sasquatch expositions with the rot and odds rocks. But anyway,

787
00:47:04.199 --> 00:47:05.880
we're going down the river and we get into the

788
00:47:05.920 --> 00:47:08.800
canyon and Steve's got yours. He goes tom, I go

789
00:47:08.880 --> 00:47:12.559
what he goes. It is really really quiet. Here's not

790
00:47:12.599 --> 00:47:15.639
even birds making noise of moving about. And I said, yeah,

791
00:47:16.159 --> 00:47:19.119
and there's a steep canyon, walls all covered in ferns

792
00:47:19.239 --> 00:47:22.119
and trees. So I stood on the bow. I put

793
00:47:22.159 --> 00:47:26.760
my hands out like that, and I'm like yo, throwing

794
00:47:26.840 --> 00:47:30.440
off in my language, a quackle. I'm in the Quillioo territories.

795
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:33.719
They don't speak Quackola, but I tried it. Nothing So

796
00:47:33.760 --> 00:47:40.079
then I, well, how are you scuokum? And then a

797
00:47:40.159 --> 00:47:44.480
high pitch keeps speaking at the two I said, I

798
00:47:44.480 --> 00:47:49.559
don't know anymore. Shut up. So I think I hit something.

799
00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:54.840
The Sasquatches understand Chinook dialect because there had to be

800
00:47:54.920 --> 00:47:58.960
a way of the Indians to communicate with the Sasquatches

801
00:47:59.000 --> 00:48:01.719
to learn the partitional remedies, and some tribes are still

802
00:48:01.719 --> 00:48:05.719
doing that. So Chok trade dialect, I think is the key.

803
00:48:06.119 --> 00:48:11.280
Oh Man, that is fascinating. That would be really interesting

804
00:48:11.800 --> 00:48:16.320
to do some kind of experiment, I mean across across

805
00:48:16.360 --> 00:48:20.239
the country where to see if it's if it's different,

806
00:48:20.599 --> 00:48:23.960
just different states that have that same response to the

807
00:48:24.039 --> 00:48:27.000
Chinook trade language, or if you can get the same response,

808
00:48:27.599 --> 00:48:30.320
you know, from west coast to east coast. You know,

809
00:48:30.800 --> 00:48:35.559
I don't know, but yeah, time will stell, time, time

810
00:48:35.599 --> 00:48:41.159
will tell definitely. Would you be able to share you know,

811
00:48:41.280 --> 00:48:45.440
you've you've been on so many expeditions, but you were

812
00:48:45.480 --> 00:48:50.840
mentioning earlier that that uli was just the you know number,

813
00:48:50.920 --> 00:48:53.280
what was it, twenty three or twenty four. There's been

814
00:48:53.320 --> 00:48:57.679
other there's been other sightings or encounters that have happened

815
00:48:57.719 --> 00:49:00.760
on your expeditions. Would you be able to maybe another

816
00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:02.039
story from one of.

817
00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:06.920
Those, so Adam Davies, we all know who is Yeah, great,

818
00:49:07.039 --> 00:49:11.800
it's Stephen Majors. They wanted to go out, so buddy

819
00:49:11.840 --> 00:49:14.960
who's an Indian, has a yacht and out of Cambell River,

820
00:49:15.039 --> 00:49:19.360
eastern central Vancouver Island. So we all jumped on there

821
00:49:19.400 --> 00:49:28.639
with the bosses are the captain's brother, and captain's daughter niece,

822
00:49:29.760 --> 00:49:33.960
and Peggy, my wife, and we all go on this trip.

823
00:49:34.000 --> 00:49:35.719
We all had plans to go way up in my

824
00:49:35.880 --> 00:49:39.360
territory is about six seven hours journey. But you leave

825
00:49:39.360 --> 00:49:41.400
Cap'm River at night in the wintertime on a big

826
00:49:41.440 --> 00:49:43.519
tide because they're there for clam tide, which means a

827
00:49:43.519 --> 00:49:46.960
big low and a big high tide just logs everyone

828
00:49:47.159 --> 00:49:49.119
and you hit that with your bollock and sink you.

829
00:49:49.760 --> 00:49:53.280
So we get through Seymour Narrows, which is zero tide

830
00:49:53.840 --> 00:49:56.320
or slack tide, so we don't want any tide rips

831
00:49:56.320 --> 00:49:59.880
and overfalls. We scooted through there and just around the

832
00:50:00.039 --> 00:50:02.519
corner we pull in about twenty minutes later into a

833
00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:06.280
small inlet and I'm like, a small inlet and no

834
00:50:06.480 --> 00:50:09.159
sasquatch here, but we got there. We dropped anchor and

835
00:50:09.199 --> 00:50:12.159
you know, we're eight o'clock at night, nine o'clock at

836
00:50:12.239 --> 00:50:15.280
night in February. So it was pitch dark and we're

837
00:50:15.280 --> 00:50:17.679
all up on the bridge smoking cigarettes and everything, and

838
00:50:17.760 --> 00:50:20.360
I go to Adam, at them make a sound like

839
00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:23.519
a sasquatch. You're the big explorer, been all over the road.

840
00:50:23.559 --> 00:50:26.639
He goes, we'll actually make the sound of a mountain

841
00:50:26.679 --> 00:50:30.239
gorilla on Mount kill him and jerrold a congo. But

842
00:50:30.920 --> 00:50:32.559
I'm not going to do like them because when they

843
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:36.400
finished vocalizing, they urinate all over their legs. So anyway,

844
00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:41.239
Adam does this big huff and woof and wo and

845
00:50:41.280 --> 00:50:44.960
then when he slops, we get an answer from Timber

846
00:50:45.400 --> 00:50:49.119
and we're all just like, no way. So we're flurs

847
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:52.199
out and everything, but nothing. So the next morning we

848
00:50:52.239 --> 00:50:54.920
got up, we all went ashore and I found two

849
00:50:55.000 --> 00:50:58.800
piles of broken cockle shells at high tide. There was

850
00:50:59.119 --> 00:51:01.800
rotten snow and there, but we didn't find any tracks.

851
00:51:02.320 --> 00:51:04.480
So we decided we're going to stay there for the

852
00:51:04.559 --> 00:51:08.519
low tide at six o'clock hour before dark that night

853
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:11.880
and dig some shellfish and look for tracks and so forth.

854
00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:15.760
So we're digging and everything, and just as we're leieving

855
00:51:16.039 --> 00:51:20.360
with our shellfish, about seven o'clock at night, tide starting

856
00:51:20.360 --> 00:51:23.760
to rise. Now we're s I'm spotlighting. I'm always on

857
00:51:23.840 --> 00:51:26.159
the go for sasquatch, so I put people on them.

858
00:51:26.199 --> 00:51:28.039
I don't just sit there and put my head down.

859
00:51:28.440 --> 00:51:33.159
So I'm spotlighting and i'm shine. He goes, I think

860
00:51:33.199 --> 00:51:35.880
I saw it, and so we're spotlighting away. But we

861
00:51:35.920 --> 00:51:38.880
didn't get no more reaction. We went out to the yacht.

862
00:51:39.280 --> 00:51:43.599
All start popping wine courts and beer tabs. Captain's law kicks,

863
00:51:43.639 --> 00:51:45.960
and no one's to go on the dinghies after you

864
00:51:46.039 --> 00:51:49.320
start having SIPs. So we're all sitting there. You know,

865
00:51:49.320 --> 00:51:52.119
we didn't see a sasquatch. We're eating clams and steak.

866
00:51:53.039 --> 00:51:57.559
And three hours after low tide has turned to flood,

867
00:51:58.000 --> 00:52:01.199
all the shellfish beaches are covered. Now Adams out back

868
00:52:01.280 --> 00:52:03.079
having a smoke. Tom you've been come here and take

869
00:52:03.079 --> 00:52:05.280
a look. Gives me the flur. I look, and at

870
00:52:05.280 --> 00:52:09.239
about one hundred and fifty plus yards there's a huge

871
00:52:09.320 --> 00:52:14.320
heat signature on the beach. It stands up, bipedal squats down.

872
00:52:15.079 --> 00:52:17.320
I'm like, hey, guys, get out here. And we got

873
00:52:17.320 --> 00:52:19.559
all the flurs going. But I had to wherewithal to

874
00:52:19.599 --> 00:52:22.400
grab my flur and my cell phone and put it

875
00:52:22.480 --> 00:52:26.400
on there and we got sixteen minutes forty seconds recorded

876
00:52:26.440 --> 00:52:30.239
a video of that sasquatch harvesting something on the beach

877
00:52:30.280 --> 00:52:34.360
at half tide rising so and eventually it walks into

878
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:38.280
the bushes and disappears. So right away I'm thinking, what

879
00:52:38.440 --> 00:52:40.159
the heck would it be eaten? Maybe it was rolling

880
00:52:40.239 --> 00:52:43.800
rocks over for the smoke crabs underneath and eels. And

881
00:52:43.840 --> 00:52:46.360
so the next morning we go ashore and what it

882
00:52:46.400 --> 00:52:49.880
was harvesting was what you call china hats. They're a

883
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:53.920
mollusk that sticks like an abalone to the rocks. Everyone

884
00:52:54.000 --> 00:52:56.840
in the size of a silver dollar or bigger was gone.

885
00:52:57.199 --> 00:52:59.280
All that was left on the surface were the ones

886
00:52:59.320 --> 00:53:02.599
the size of your nail. So he was smashing them

887
00:53:02.639 --> 00:53:05.360
with a rock and eating them, and that's what he

888
00:53:05.440 --> 00:53:07.880
was eating, and it just blew me away. I didn't

889
00:53:07.880 --> 00:53:11.920
suspect they'd be eating china hats. So that day we

890
00:53:12.000 --> 00:53:14.920
did a you know, droning and different things, and that

891
00:53:15.119 --> 00:53:18.480
night we're gonna put had him on the beach and

892
00:53:18.679 --> 00:53:24.079
flur them and compare his flour signature to the sasquatch. Well,

893
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:27.920
me and Peggy put had him on the dinghy. We

894
00:53:27.960 --> 00:53:30.280
bring him to shore and he gets out with my

895
00:53:30.360 --> 00:53:33.400
twelve gags no light because he doesn't want to spook

896
00:53:33.920 --> 00:53:36.639
any sasquatch around, and you could hear him and his

897
00:53:36.679 --> 00:53:41.679
British swearing away as he's slipping and falling, clagging my shotgun.

898
00:53:41.800 --> 00:53:45.400
That didn't like that sound. And anyway, all of a sudden,

899
00:53:45.760 --> 00:53:47.800
me and Peggy are offshore and shut the motor off.

900
00:53:47.960 --> 00:53:50.239
You know, I'm about three hundred yards away from him,

901
00:53:50.280 --> 00:53:51.800
letting him do his thing. I don't want to be

902
00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:55.679
in the way with the analysis of Adam's heat size

903
00:53:56.079 --> 00:53:59.239
from the boat with Stephen and other people, And all

904
00:53:59.239 --> 00:54:02.320
of a sudden the raid goes off. Handheld Tommy, come

905
00:54:02.360 --> 00:54:05.719
pick me up, picking at me, So I just start

906
00:54:05.880 --> 00:54:08.440
turn the keys, zip in. Peggy get ready to help

907
00:54:08.440 --> 00:54:10.880
at him, and she's at the bow and as I'm

908
00:54:10.920 --> 00:54:13.320
going in with the spotlight lifting my motor, I look

909
00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:18.559
up and there's a perfect cheaty. You look up, there's

910
00:54:18.599 --> 00:54:21.440
a sasquatch looking at us. And she's too busy helping

911
00:54:21.480 --> 00:54:23.559
at him and getting the twelve games getting him him.

912
00:54:23.639 --> 00:54:25.519
He just wants to get off that beach. We get

913
00:54:26.000 --> 00:54:28.280
on the boat, we're pulled away, and he's like that

914
00:54:28.320 --> 00:54:30.760
thing was growling at me. It was like eight feet

915
00:54:30.760 --> 00:54:34.960
away from me, growling at me. So something that that

916
00:54:35.000 --> 00:54:38.800
was a good one because the credibility on that one.

917
00:54:38.840 --> 00:54:41.039
I got witnesses and one of them is Adam Davies.

918
00:54:41.199 --> 00:54:43.400
Oh yeah, Adam is. Adam is a great guy. I

919
00:54:43.400 --> 00:54:46.400
needed to have a conversation with him someday. He's got

920
00:54:46.400 --> 00:54:52.360
some really cool stuff that's happened to him. Tom, Can

921
00:54:52.480 --> 00:54:56.480
you see how about this? What do you think the

922
00:54:56.559 --> 00:55:00.239
closest you've ever been to a Sasquatch is for the.

923
00:55:00.280 --> 00:55:07.239
Years into that window? Five feet? Oh wow. I was

924
00:55:07.599 --> 00:55:10.039
building cabins from my Indian tribe on a two hundred

925
00:55:10.039 --> 00:55:12.599
and fifty acre island up in the Broughton Archipelago, my

926
00:55:12.599 --> 00:55:16.840
traditional territories off northeastern Vancouver Island Mouth and Knight's Inlet.

927
00:55:16.840 --> 00:55:23.119
For anyone wants to pinpoint it, Compton Island, COMTN, Compton Island.

928
00:55:24.079 --> 00:55:27.719
And I told my crew a two native distant cousins,

929
00:55:28.440 --> 00:55:31.920
you guys go to the outhouse together. Was on the

930
00:55:31.920 --> 00:55:35.760
island right now, and when it's northwest, they're standing down

931
00:55:35.800 --> 00:55:39.199
there watching us southeast. Up on that rock bluff, I

932
00:55:39.239 --> 00:55:42.519
went and looked and seen the grass down over there

933
00:55:42.559 --> 00:55:45.440
and up there all the twigs are pulverized the pulp

934
00:55:45.920 --> 00:55:50.119
because there's so much activity up there. And looking from there,

935
00:55:50.519 --> 00:55:52.679
my cousins said, are you sure? Show me? So we

936
00:55:52.719 --> 00:55:54.840
went over. I said, grabbed that milk crate, you know,

937
00:55:55.000 --> 00:55:57.880
two foot by two foot plastic milk crate. So I

938
00:55:57.920 --> 00:56:00.519
went to where we had a tarpa with all of

939
00:56:00.559 --> 00:56:04.679
our building equipment lumber so didn't get wet. I said,

940
00:56:04.679 --> 00:56:08.159
he's been standing here behind this tree. Put that crate down,

941
00:56:08.480 --> 00:56:11.360
stand on it. You now over seven feet What do

942
00:56:11.400 --> 00:56:16.840
you see are flipping picnic table? He's watching us. Well,

943
00:56:16.840 --> 00:56:19.480
we're sitting at our picnic table between the cabins. I'm

944
00:56:19.519 --> 00:56:21.639
like here, I said, let's go to the other deck.

945
00:56:21.800 --> 00:56:27.039
What do you see our bedroom window at our picnic table.

946
00:56:27.079 --> 00:56:30.599
I'm like, yeah, there, I said, I think that's who's

947
00:56:30.599 --> 00:56:34.599
stealing my apples and my and my garlet from the

948
00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:36.559
metal lock box where our food is. We had an

949
00:56:36.599 --> 00:56:39.760
outdoor kitchen and I knew it wasn't my cousins because

950
00:56:39.760 --> 00:56:42.480
they said there are three teeth Indians. Those two I

951
00:56:42.559 --> 00:56:44.400
think they had six teeth between the two of them,

952
00:56:44.440 --> 00:56:47.199
so they ain't eating apples, and they didn't like garlic

953
00:56:47.280 --> 00:56:51.880
in their crab butter. I do so. Anyway, we put

954
00:56:51.920 --> 00:56:54.760
a glass upside down on the table where the kitchen

955
00:56:54.840 --> 00:56:58.719
is garlet cloth inside. John goes, hey, I'm going to

956
00:56:58.719 --> 00:57:01.480
get pepsi one of pepsi. I said, yeah, I grabbed

957
00:57:01.519 --> 00:57:04.880
me one from the cooler because running back the jar

958
00:57:05.000 --> 00:57:07.320
is empty. We all go running over there. It's not

959
00:57:07.440 --> 00:57:09.280
a half an hour, it's not even dark yet, and

960
00:57:09.280 --> 00:57:12.239
the garlic's gone from the jar. But I stupidly grabbed it.

961
00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:16.159
I should have done like Hula yesterday the other day

962
00:57:16.199 --> 00:57:18.639
had been careful and brought it to the police and

963
00:57:18.639 --> 00:57:22.639
Alert Bay to get fingerprinted. So we know there's a

964
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:25.320
sasquatch on the island. So I'm having a cigarette outside

965
00:57:25.320 --> 00:57:28.840
of the cabin and just put a eight inch overhang

966
00:57:28.880 --> 00:57:31.360
and it's drizzling, so I'm standing against that on what

967
00:57:31.440 --> 00:57:35.559
would be our beam for future deck on the cabin

968
00:57:36.280 --> 00:57:38.320
and I'm stating to have my smoke and it's blowing

969
00:57:38.440 --> 00:57:41.519
northwest from my right. All of a sudden, the stick

970
00:57:41.559 --> 00:57:44.239
comes out of the forest from our outhouse trail and

971
00:57:44.320 --> 00:57:46.480
lands on the beach. So I'm like, that's not right,

972
00:57:46.559 --> 00:57:49.719

01:03:09.800 --> 01:03:12.440
was about forty five, MINUTES later, I, go, darcy look

1071
01:03:13.039 --> 01:03:16.679
there's our carpenter with this big metal box full. Of

1072
01:03:16.760 --> 01:03:20.440
tools when we brought, them in Me and darcy took

1073
01:03:20.519 --> 01:03:22.760
everything we could to carry it down the dock to

1074
01:03:22.800 --> 01:03:24.880
the boat and then from the boat up. The beach

1075
01:03:25.320 --> 01:03:28.159
that thing was heavy and here he is just he

1076
01:03:28.280 --> 01:03:32.440
was scared he was getting off. That island so it's

1077
01:03:32.440 --> 01:03:34.880
probably The closest i've been to a sasquatch five.

1078
01:03:34.920 --> 01:03:40.239
Feet wow that is that, is extremely. Extremely intense that

1079
01:03:40.239 --> 01:03:47.320
that is hard. TO beat i think in a lot

1080
01:03:47.400 --> 01:03:49.519
Of people i've, talked TO or i hear it from

1081
01:03:49.559 --> 01:03:52.840
a lot, of listeners they're they're, always asking, YOU know

1082
01:03:56.760 --> 01:03:59.840
i think they're trying to figure out if sasquatch in

1083
01:03:59.880 --> 01:04:04.960
our actions are, usually peaceful or if there's ones where

1084
01:04:04.599 --> 01:04:08.199
they can be more aggressive and they, can actually, you

1085
01:04:08.199 --> 01:04:11.320
know maybe cause harm. To people but you don't really

1086
01:04:11.960 --> 01:04:14.599
hear a lot, Of those or maybe it's that you're

1087
01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:17.599
not talking to the. Right people have you heard any

1088
01:04:17.639 --> 01:04:22.599
of those where things just it gets really really off.

1089
01:04:22.599 --> 01:04:24.320
THE rails i guess you could say.

1090
01:04:24.920 --> 01:04:27.039
It's because they end up being a steam and turner

1091
01:04:27.280 --> 01:04:30.360
half a dozen in the forests. And sasquatch sasquats like,

1092
01:04:30.400 --> 01:04:33.280
eating beans some of them. Human beings that's why when

1093
01:04:33.280 --> 01:04:36.480
we interview and research the Names of sasquatch and native

1094
01:04:36.559 --> 01:04:42.559

The cannibal hence the Other. Tribe sasquatch, they're HUMANS and

01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:07.880
their skulls you know it's, not conical but it is

1118
01:06:07.920 --> 01:06:12.760

1119
01:06:12.880 --> 01:06:15.239
put some hair and darkened Skin and neanderthal and you got.

1120
01:06:15.280 --> 01:06:18.920
A sasquatch so that's where we. Come from so we

1121
01:06:19.000 --> 01:06:22.400
Know that neanderthal. Were cannibals we know that every human

1122
01:06:22.519 --> 01:06:27.480
race on all, six continents most of us. PRACTICE cannibalisms i.

1123
01:06:27.599 --> 01:06:33.679
Come from i'm not such a. Clant society even moats

1124
01:06:33.760 --> 01:06:37.199
that are dried up archaeologically Dug in Europe And eastern

1125
01:06:37.840 --> 01:06:44.840
asia produce bones that were cracked, for marrow. Burnt stewed

1126
01:06:45.480 --> 01:06:48.840
so Even the caucasian ancestors were cannibals back in. The

1127
01:06:48.960 --> 01:06:53.280
day you can imagine How many irish got eaten because

1128
01:06:53.480 --> 01:06:56.119
the potato plague back in the day when everyone. Was

1129
01:06:56.159 --> 01:07:00.559
starving any animal will do whatever they need to do

1130
01:07:00.679 --> 01:07:03.639
and eat in order to survive in times. Of starvation

1131
01:07:04.280 --> 01:07:07.159
so we've all been cannibates at one time, or another

to get on that edge of being. Going postal so

1180
01:09:47.039 --> 01:09:51.079
when a sasquatch gets toppled by, a younger more, stronger

1181
01:09:51.119 --> 01:09:54.239
male because that's ake get Me the Creator's. Code god

01:09:55.960 --> 01:10:00.680
he loses, his mate loses, his children loses, his clan loses,

1183
01:10:00.720 --> 01:10:03.640
his territory and some of them just go trumping and

1184
01:10:03.680 --> 01:10:06.319
find a. New wife the bump uglies with and have

1185
01:10:06.399 --> 01:10:10.439
more children and develop a new clan. And territory but some, of,

1186
01:10:10.479 --> 01:10:15.680
them woof they. Go rogue, something snaps they, go postal

1187
01:10:16.319 --> 01:10:20.199
and they start killing for the fact of just the enjoyment.

1188
01:10:20.279 --> 01:10:24.680
Of killing i've seen the torn, apart, turkey, carcasses coyotes

1189
01:10:24.840 --> 01:10:29.239
deer and smelling of carrying in and maggot covered because

1190
01:10:29.239 --> 01:10:31.399
he didn't. Eat him he was just, killing them and

1191
01:10:31.439 --> 01:10:33.439
we beat feet and got out. Of there i've seen

1192
01:10:33.560 --> 01:10:42.520
the Many many canadian geese killed with the who's killing stolen?

1193
01:10:42.600 --> 01:10:44.880
That round that's one of them from the killing fields

1194
01:10:45.239 --> 01:10:49.720
where that robe sashquats was killing geese and it's, killing

1195
01:10:49.800 --> 01:10:53.079
him ripping, them APART and i kind of suspect he

1196
01:10:53.159 --> 01:10:55.760
was eating the heart and the heart in, them though

1197
01:10:55.960 --> 01:11:01.720
and the liver because those. Were missing so that all of,

1198
01:11:01.760 --> 01:11:08.720
a sudden the rogue sasquatch. Comes across, berry pickers, shellfish diggers, mushroom,

1199
01:11:08.720 --> 01:11:14.399
pickers hikers and the human is, the easiest the stupidest

1200
01:11:14.399 --> 01:11:17.199
animal on. This planet they're easy to kill. IN harvest

1201
01:11:18.520 --> 01:11:20.880
i like. Eating beans this tastes. Pretty good that was an.

1202
01:11:20.880 --> 01:11:22.960
EASY hunt a lot better and going after deer and

1203
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:27.680
out no horns to poke cu. Kind do They'd get

1204
01:11:27.680 --> 01:11:29.560
bernie eyes when they hit there with. That spray, but

1205
01:11:30.119 --> 01:11:32.119
boy kind of made my meat taste a, little better.

1206
01:11:32.640 --> 01:11:36.359
You know so they go cannibal and they Learn that

1207
01:11:37.600 --> 01:11:41.760
i'm like. Hunting humans, they're easy, they're tasty and you

1208
01:11:41.840 --> 01:11:44.279
can imagine with the diverse diets that we have Here In,

1209
01:11:44.279 --> 01:11:47.640
north america how tasty. We are, YOU know i probably

1210
01:11:47.680 --> 01:11:50.760
taste like McDonald's because they eat a lot. Of McDonald's

1211
01:11:51.079 --> 01:11:53.680
but other people probably taste like tufoo because that's what.

1212
01:11:53.720 --> 01:11:56.079
They eat and other people probably eat like fish because

1213
01:11:56.119 --> 01:11:58.119
eat a lot. Of that so you See what i'm.

1214
01:11:58.119 --> 01:12:02.079
Getting at so the sasquatch is that, go rogue they're psychotic,

1215
01:12:02.239 --> 01:12:06.800
hunter killers and, for them it's a beautiful place, to

1216
01:12:06.880 --> 01:12:11.279
be even our own hairless. Bipedal population hannibal. To cannibal,

1217
01:12:11.680 --> 01:12:13.640
so yeah it, was fiction but we know of the

1218
01:12:13.680 --> 01:12:17.479
non fiction hannibal cannibals that the police have caught just

1219
01:12:17.520 --> 01:12:20.399
In The united States, and canada and the last in

1220
01:12:20.439 --> 01:12:24.039
my LIFETIME since i started watching news at. About fifteen

1221
01:12:25.239 --> 01:12:28.319
so when you're in an area of, a rogue beat

1222
01:12:28.399 --> 01:12:32.239
feet and get out, of there and they, are evil

1223
01:12:32.640 --> 01:12:36.840
they are. Hunter killers and we were three of us

1224
01:12:36.880 --> 01:12:40.600
back to back one time shooting warning shots pushing down

1225
01:12:40.640 --> 01:12:44.840
to the beach because we got close to a group

1226
01:12:44.880 --> 01:12:50.880
of sasasquatchs that went right psychotic, on us. Throwing Things

1227
01:12:50.920 --> 01:12:53.000
and i've been in that situation a couple. Of times,

1228
01:12:53.039 --> 01:12:55.279
you know a lot of people. Are listening they're like

1229
01:12:55.520 --> 01:12:57.479
this sky has a lot, of encounters had a lot

1230
01:12:57.520 --> 01:13:00.479
of encounters were you're using flush toilets and leticity and.

1231
01:13:00.560 --> 01:13:02.479
RUNNING water i was living out in, the busch sleeping

1232
01:13:02.520 --> 01:13:05.079
in the habit, IF not i was on, a boat anchored,

1233
01:13:05.079 --> 01:13:07.319
out somewhere but still going, to shore deep in bush

1234
01:13:07.479 --> 01:13:10.319
or scouting for two weeks or more on end for,

1235
01:13:10.399 --> 01:13:12.920
grizzbly bears for my two hunting seasons, every year all.

1236
01:13:12.960 --> 01:13:15.680
By myself, you know me and my cousin used to

1237
01:13:15.960 --> 01:13:19.439
get off on a boat or get. Dropped off we'd

1238
01:13:19.439 --> 01:13:22.640
go up a logging roadside, a river through, the timber through,

1239
01:13:22.640 --> 01:13:25.479
the oltpine through the, ice field come down the, next

1240
01:13:25.560 --> 01:13:30.560
alpine go through, that timber out, that drainage then do.

1241
01:13:30.600 --> 01:13:34.279
It again we were gone for months sometimes because, CURRENT

1242
01:13:34.319 --> 01:13:36.840
ada i was able to go on top, some mountains

1243
01:13:36.880 --> 01:13:39.960
put out my arms And spin WHY because, I could

1244
01:13:41.840 --> 01:13:43.399
and THAT'S how i got my encounters.

1245
01:13:43.439 --> 01:13:46.479
Or, SASQUATCH yeah i mean that's that's the number one

1246
01:13:46.600 --> 01:13:50.520
Lesson which OOLIE and i just had a conversation about,

1247
01:13:50.680 --> 01:13:52.800
this day is if you want to have, a sighting

1248
01:13:52.960 --> 01:13:55.479
you got to put the hours out in. The field

1249
01:13:55.560 --> 01:13:57.680
you got to get. Out there that's how it's going.

1250
01:13:57.760 --> 01:14:03.119
To happen so but one more thing about, you know the.

1251
01:14:03.640 --> 01:14:06.079
Rogue sasquatch So what i'm getting from, that then and

1252
01:14:06.840 --> 01:14:10.000
let me KNOW if i didn't get, it right is

1253
01:14:10.039 --> 01:14:13.760
the number one indicator that you're around a rogue sasquatch

1254
01:14:14.000 --> 01:14:19.800
is finding like animals that are just torn apart or

1255
01:14:19.920 --> 01:14:22.479
dead all over. The place where there are other indicators as.

1256
01:14:22.520 --> 01:14:27.680
Well well if you do happen to come across the,

1257
01:14:27.760 --> 01:14:31.720
killing area there's usually. The POCKETS one i noticed was

1258
01:14:31.760 --> 01:14:34.720
close to. The beach there's other killing field is up

1259
01:14:34.800 --> 01:14:38.520
river where the wolves and the other animals are harvesting

1260
01:14:38.560 --> 01:14:41.960
the salmon and. Shallow water but generally what you're gonna

1261
01:14:41.960 --> 01:14:46.119
see is you're going to see that and then all

1262
01:14:46.119 --> 01:14:48.239
of a sudden they're just gonna do like a, predatory

1263
01:14:48.279 --> 01:14:51.319
bear they're just gonna look, at you fixate, on you

1264
01:14:51.359 --> 01:14:54.640
