In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Jeremiah Byron invites Amanda to share her childhood Bigfoot encounter in Brownfield, Illinois. Amanda recounts a chilling face-to-face encounter with a Bigfoot that peered through her window when she was just 9 or 10 years old. Alongside her sighting, Amanda discusses the impact this experience had on her life. The episode also features Rodger from Lincoln City, Oregon, who talks about multiple Bigfoot sightings and unusual encounters near the Rose Lodge area. Rodger shares captivating stories, including being physically hit by a Bigfoot, and describes witnessing juvenile Sasquatches jumping from tree to tree. He also provides insights into Sasquatch behavior, such as creating wood knock sounds and experiencing mimicry of gunfire. Rodger's encounters take place in rural areas rich with dense, forested regions like the Van Duzer Corridor, which is known for Sasquatch activity.

I got connected to over on the TikTok platform and

16
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:52.320

19
00:00:58.159 --> 00:00:59.200
It's going very good.

20
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:02.280
Yeah, it's a nice one. I was starting to get

21
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:04.799
warmer and at least up here in Iowa, we're starting

22
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:06.519
to have a good time. We'll get to the fifties,

23
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:10.400
so I can't complain. But you know, Amanda, I'm going

24
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:15.200
to go ahead and let you take the mic here

25
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:20.799
and bring us back to when you experienced this sighting

26
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:21.959
during your childhood.

27
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:24.599
Okay, sounds good.

28
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:30.200
I well, I was a small kid, about nine ten

29
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:34.959
years old. I'm forty eight now, so this is a

30
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:35.640
long time ago.

31
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:38.840
I haven't really openly told my story.

32
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:41.560
You know, people think you're crazy when you talk about

33
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:44.400
things like this. But yeah, like I said, I was

34
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:48.040
about nine or ten years old, and I was staying

35
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:52.640
the night at my aunt and uncle's house in Brownfield, Illinois.

36
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:58.000
It's in Pope County, Illinois, very southern, kind of you know, cornfields,

37
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:01.359
wooded area. I lived kind of out on a farm,

38
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:04.200
so we were kind of, you know, kind of very rule.

39
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:07.920
But anyway, I don't know what time of night it was,

40
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:11.719
but it was summertime because the corn was high.

41
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:12.439
I was.

42
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:14.879
I was asleep in bed and staying there with a

43
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.159
friend and she was sleeping over there too, and I

44
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:19.960
don't know, I woke in the middle of the night

45
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:20.879
for no reason.

46
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:23.039
I like got a hot flash something.

47
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.960
Anyway, something woke me, so I crawled out of bed

48
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:32.280
and I actually got that on the floor and pulled

49
00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:36.759
the blinds up and opened the window without even you know,

50
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.680
paying any attention, and so it was just me and

51
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:43.199
the screen. And then I happened to look up and

52
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:46.080
it was actually staring back in the window at me.

53
00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:52.280
That was pretty traumatizing. I don't remember features of its face.

54
00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:56.479
It's like I really just focused on its eyes. We

55
00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:59.599
were kind of just kind of eye locked there for

56
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:03.639
a little it. I think I was so terrified no

57
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:07.840
sound could come out. It had blue eyes, it was

58
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:09.759
I don't know if it was it was like a

59
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:13.319
whitish grayish. I mean, you could tell what it was.

60
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:17.680
It was definitely like a bigfoot. And uh, I don't

61
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:19.280
know how long I was there, but it felt like

62
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:25.280
forever staring eye to eye with the bigfoot. And uh,

63
00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:27.840
finally I was able to, you know, come to my senses,

64
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.520
and I kind of just slapped the girl in the

65
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:32.639
bed with me on the leg and she woke up

66
00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:36.800
and screamed, and it kind of began to start walking

67
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.319
away from the window, and we were on one end

68
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:43.280
of the trailer. Mind you, it was very set high,

69
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:45.439
you know how trailers are, you know, one end to

70
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:47.159
be lower and one is high up on the block,

71
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:49.159
so you know, it would have to be pretty tall

72
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:50.919
to look in the window eye to eye with me.

73
00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:54.360
But we ran to the other end of the trailer

74
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.840
and my aunt and uncle both woke up, and you know,

75
00:03:57.919 --> 00:03:59.879
they saw it as well, and by that time it

76
00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:02.080
was running away, and my uncle actually shot at it

77
00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:08.919
because we were all terrified. Yeah, so, I mean that's

78
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:11.280
kind of the story. But you know, there was four

79
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:12.319
people in the home that.

80
00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:13.039
Saw it that night.

81
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:17.120
That's incredible. So let's see, I'm trying to do some quick,

82
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.759
quick math here. So this was in the eighties, Yeah.

83
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:23.720
Yeah, okay, probably about eighty five.

84
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:27.639
Yeah, all right, all right, now, I mean that is

85
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:30.360
just that's the thing that would never leave you. It's

86
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:32.439
probably affected your sleep many a night.

87
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:35.600
I'm scared to death of windows to this day.

88
00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:45.079
Yeah wow. So how close ballpark would you say you

89
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:49.680
were actually to it and you face to face, I

90
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:50.639
could hear it breathing.

91
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:54.720
I mean I was pretty close, I would say, you know,

92
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:57.720
within a foot.

93
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:02.439
What did its breathing sound like?

94
00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:06.519
I mean, it just I mean it didn't sound like

95
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:09.120
heavy breathing or I mean, it just sounded like normal breathing.

96
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:11.480
But it was loud enough I could hear it. But

97
00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:14.120
I don't know. Maybe it was just as scared as

98
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:14.519
I was.

99
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:15.199
I don't know.

100
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:23.639
You said that your uncle actually took a shot at it.

101
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.600
Do you know if he had hit it at all?

102
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:30.720
I don't think so. I think he was more just

103
00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:32.319
trying to scare it off. I don't think he like

104
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:34.160
actually aimed at it, you know what I mean, more

105
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:35.120
of a shot in the air.

106
00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:36.759
And it ran like a man.

107
00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:39.920
You could see it on it, you know, it's elbows

108
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:42.879
were bent running. I mean, it looked like a person running,

109
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:44.600
but you know, obviously it wasn't a person.

110
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:46.879
It ran straight into the cornfield because the.

111
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:48.879
Corn fields are all around their house, you know, and

112
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:51.519
the corn was really tall at that time. So it

113
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:54.279
ran into the cornfield and that was the last we saw.

114
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:56.639
So you actually saw it run.

115
00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:00.399
Away, Yes, we saw it run away all at the

116
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:01.759
door because we were terrified.

117
00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:07.959
You know, my goodness. Did you notice anything strange about

118
00:06:07.959 --> 00:06:10.480
the way it was moving when it was running away?

119
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:17.600
No, I just remember that. I was thinking, I thought,

120
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:19.920
is that a dressed up person? But you know I

121
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:22.480
knew it wasn't because I looked in its eyes. You know,

122
00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:25.439
and you could tell that was its eyes, you know,

123
00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:29.040
and they were blue. It actually had really pretty eyes,

124
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:32.279
and I felt, even though I was scared of the unknown,

125
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.319
I didn't feel threatened. Do you do you know what

126
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:40.439
I'm saying. Yeah, that is just one thing I really remember.

127
00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:43.120
But I don't know if I was so locked on

128
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:45.439
the eyes, I don't remember anything about the rest of

129
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:45.879
the face.

130
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:51.600
Were you able to get any emotion from the eyes

131
00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:53.680
when you were looking into them?

132
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:57.040
Yeah, I think that's what I mean.

133
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:01.040
I think it felt like I saw like curious and

134
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:04.800
I don't know, I just felt not threatened by its

135
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:06.199
eyes and it seemed friendly.

136
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:13.319
Absolutely. What happened the next day.

137
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:20.360
After this, I couldn't tell. You don't even remember. I

138
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:23.560
suppressed it for a long time because I don't know.

139
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:24.920
I guess I don't know.

140
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:27.879
It was very traumatic, and you know, I finally spoke

141
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:29.920
to my aunt and uncle about it, you know, many

142
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:33.399
years later, and we discussed it, and then I was like, oh,

143
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:36.399
my gosh, that was real. I guess I made myself

144
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:38.439
believe it was a dream or tried to push it

145
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:39.399
back in my mind.

146
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:47.680
Or how did that affect you when you you actually

147
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:50.839
realized that yeah, that, I mean, that was a real thing.

148
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:54.839
There's three other people that or my aunt and uncle

149
00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:58.879
also saw it. I mean, that would be very validating

150
00:07:59.079 --> 00:07:59.360
for me.

151
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:02.279
It was, it was, you know, because I mean I

152
00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:04.680
had told the story to a few people, like my

153
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:06.480
husband at the time, and they would laugh at me,

154
00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:09.839
and I was like, you know, it's not funny. I'm traumatized,

155
00:08:10.959 --> 00:08:12.759
you know, But I think it's an incredible thing that

156
00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:14.480
I that I got to see that. I don't know

157
00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:16.680
if anybody else will ever have the same experience I

158
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:17.839
did that close.

159
00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:24.160
It is a very it's a rare occurrence to be

160
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:26.519
that close. For sure, it was a very rare thing.

161
00:08:27.160 --> 00:08:29.959
Did you did you smell anything out of the ordinary

162
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:30.560
that night?

163
00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:33.399
Not that I remember.

164
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:40.879
Okay, would you ever hear anything out of the ordinary

165
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:41.919
around that trailer?

166
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:47.759
Not that I remember either.

167
00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:54.240
Gotcha? And then just another question. And I realized that

168
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:58.360
you were very young at the time, so it's totally understandable.

169
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.879
And and the other thing is you go through something

170
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:05.960
that is so traumatizing at this as this, I mean,

171
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:10.639
it's it's no wonder probably your your mind has blocked

172
00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:15.039
most of this. I'm guessing that's what my son told me.

173
00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:17.240
He was like, Mommy, need to go do the hypnotherapy

174
00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.200
and you know, bring back some of that suppressed stuff.

175
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:22.159
And I was like, no, I really don't want to.

176
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:24.159
Yeah, I was, actually I don't really want it.

177
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:25.600
I don't want the experience.

178
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.600
I was going to bring that up next, you know,

179
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:32.360
but he's you got a point too. It's like, you

180
00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:34.679
bring it back, but do you really want it back?

181
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:41.120
You know, right your your your brain blocked that for

182
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:44.480
a reason, I think, maybe to to save you from

183
00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:45.039
some stuff.

184
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:46.960
Maybe.

185
00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:50.080
The other question that I wanted to throw in there

186
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:52.679
was would you ever see anything on the property that

187
00:09:52.799 --> 00:09:59.519
was at a place, like animals that were left around

188
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:04.879
that weren't alive, also, maybe trees broken, weird things like that.

189
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:08.600
Well, I don't, you know, I didn't.

190
00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:10.919
I wasn't there all the time because it was my

191
00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:14.320
aunt and uncles, So I probably couldn't answer that question either.

192
00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:19.399
How did this affect you the rest of your life

193
00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:22.159
concerning the big Foot topic?

194
00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:27.720
Well, you know, I mean when you have an experience

195
00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:30.559
like that, it's just you don't really like to tell

196
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:34.679
many people because I mean, you know, everybody thinks you're crazy.

197
00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:39.039
So you know, I guess It's just a traumatizing experience

198
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:42.399
that I've only told to, you know, a select few

199
00:10:42.440 --> 00:10:44.840
people that I'm close with and trust, or I can

200
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:47.639
talk about with people that know they've seen it too.

201
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:49.759
There's been a lot of other people that have seen

202
00:10:49.799 --> 00:10:52.440
it in the area around the same time. I know,

203
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:55.080
I've heard a lot of stories from the same area.

204
00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:00.000
That's interesting. So were these similar to what you expect

205
00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:04.120
sperience to where they kind of different encounters.

206
00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:09.120
Somebody saw it running down the road like a man,

207
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:11.879
and another person had said that it was in their

208
00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:14.399
kitchen that was right off their garage one night.

209
00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:20.320
Oh well it actually gotten in their house.

210
00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:23.759
Yes, yes, and this was right. It was like the.

211
00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:27.120
Next house, the next farm up from where my aunt

212
00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:27.879
and uncle are.

213
00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:31.879
Oh boy, that is very concerning, I mean, because that's like,

214
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.840
that's a whole other level once once it gets to

215
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:39.639
the point when you know actually inside the residence there's

216
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:45.399
not that blocker anymore. Man, Yeah, that can really really

217
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.679
turn interesting. Was that after your encounter or before?

218
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:52.480
I'm not sure, but I remember, you know, when we

219
00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:55.080
discussed it at a later date, then you know, people

220
00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:57.639
started kind of telling their stories as well.

221
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:04.879
And yeah, from what you remember about these stories. Sometimes

222
00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:08.120
you have, you know, multiple sightings in one area and

223
00:12:08.720 --> 00:12:11.159
the big foot is described as it was white or

224
00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:15.480
was there any description about its physical appearance that would

225
00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:17.440
make you think it might have been the same one

226
00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:19.480
going around or do you think there could have been

227
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:21.519
maybe multiples.

228
00:12:21.960 --> 00:12:23.919
I think I don't, you know, it could have been either,

229
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:26.440
but I wanted to say maybe probably the same. And

230
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.600
you know, I look at it as white, and I

231
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.960
wonder myself maybe it was older or grayish, you know,

232
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:36.159
because the other people that were around the same time

233
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:38.080
it also said that it, you know, it was like

234
00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:39.120
a whitish color.

235
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:46.000
M I do want to to point out as well.

236
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:53.080
So Brownfield is inside the Shawnee National Forest. Yes, okay, gotcha?

237
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:55.320
Yes it did very rural.

238
00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:58.600
Yes, I mean I've I've never been down there. It's

239
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:00.840
on the list to check out. But just everyone I

240
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:05.120
talked to around that area, it sounds very intense, especially

241
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:08.120
the Garden of the Gods area. I don't know, have

242
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:09.399
you ever been up to that area?

243
00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:15.080
I have. Yes, it's probably about an hour away.

244
00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:18.320
From where I where I'm located because I still live

245
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:19.279
in southern Illinois.

246
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:25.559
So okay, gotcha. Wow, did you ever have anything out

247
00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:27.440
of the ordinary happen in that area.

248
00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:33.240
No, I really haven't. I mean, I hear things in

249
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:34.279
the woods all the time.

250
00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:34.559
You know.

251
00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:36.759
We have heard things behind the house we live in now,

252
00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:38.159
and it'll sound like trees breaking.

253
00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:38.360
You know.

254
00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:41.320
My kids always tease me, mom, the big foot followed you,

255
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:45.720
And I'm like, don't say that, you know so, But no,

256
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:47.879
I really haven't experienced anything where.

257
00:13:47.720 --> 00:13:48.279
I'm at now.

258
00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:53.120
Sure, and you know that is a thing sometimes people

259
00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:56.399
can make that joke, but it can potentially be a

260
00:13:56.440 --> 00:14:01.480
thing where you know, that could actually be a legitimate situation.

261
00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:06.799
But you know, if you've only heard tree branches snapping

262
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:09.879
in the woods, you know, I guess you might need

263
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:12.519
a little bit more to be to be convinced that

264
00:14:12.639 --> 00:14:13.720
something was happening there.

265
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:15.879
Yeah, most definitely.

266
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:18.480
No, I really haven't had any experiences where I'm at now,

267
00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:21.200
and I've had no experience since I was, you know,

268
00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:22.120
a small child.

269
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:34.200
So so the four people that were involved, and well,

270
00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:38.320
well I'm gonna I'm gonna try to ask this and

271
00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:42.000
we'll see if I can use it was anyone affected

272
00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:48.159
by this in a way that ended up really really

273
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:52.799
changing their life in a negative way.

274
00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:56.000
I don't think so.

275
00:14:57.879 --> 00:15:00.320
I don't speak to really talk to the other little

276
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:04.480
girl that stayed there with me anymore. I haven't since

277
00:15:04.480 --> 00:15:06.919
we were small kids, you know. But you know, I

278
00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:09.320
still see my aunt and uncle, and I mean, we'll

279
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:11.360
talk about it once in a while, but we really

280
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:16.519
just you know, it's something we just really don't discuss.

281
00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:15.080
Mmm.

282
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:21.159
Makes sense. So the different things you saw that that

283
00:15:21.279 --> 00:15:23.840
day you were able to look into its eyes big

284
00:15:23.879 --> 00:15:45.120
for the society will be right back after these messages. Yeah, Actually,

285
00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:47.879
it's a clarification I need to make about the eyes.

286
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:51.279
Were they were there any whites to the eyes or

287
00:15:51.399 --> 00:15:53.399
was it all one solid color?

288
00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:58.120
Honestly, all I remember is that they were.

289
00:15:57.960 --> 00:16:05.559
Blue, Okay, And that was the only detail you're able

290
00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:08.279
to remember about the face, correct.

291
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:09.799
Yes, okay? Yeah.

292
00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:13.440
The rest is just I have nothing. I couldn't, just

293
00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:15.799
nothing on what the actual face was. I wish I

294
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:17.720
did it. It kind of bothers me that I don't,

295
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:20.600
But for some reason, I just don't remember its face,

296
00:16:20.799 --> 00:16:21.480
just its eyes.

297
00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:26.039
When you're you're watching it, so you're watching it run

298
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:29.440
away and so you have a view of the back

299
00:16:29.559 --> 00:16:34.120
of it. Were you able at that point to see

300
00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:39.039
any hair color or hair length details.

301
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:43.639
Yeah, I do remember. It didn't have like extremely long hair,

302
00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:46.559
you know, but it was longer, you know. I remember

303
00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:50.720
seeing it flowing down from like its arms and on

304
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:55.240
the back, and it seemed like maybe like the leg

305
00:16:55.320 --> 00:16:56.679
area had longer hair.

306
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:03.519
Gotcha. Did you notice anything about the length of the

307
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:04.480
arms at all?

308
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:08.799
It seemed like it had really long arms.

309
00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:10.599
Okay.

310
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:14.000
Was there a part of it that seemed to not

311
00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:15.160
be covered by hair.

312
00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:20.720
No, the its whole backside was covered with hair.

313
00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:21.599
Okay.

314
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:26.599
Did it seem to have a visible neck at all

315
00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:28.720
or an area that would look like a neck?

316
00:17:31.599 --> 00:17:32.599
I don't recall.

317
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:36.240
And I know these are super detailed questions or something

318
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:38.599
that happened when you were so young, but I do

319
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:41.039
like to ask stuff like this just in case there's

320
00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:45.480
things that come out. Do you remember anything about the

321
00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:48.599
shape of the head at all as you saw it

322
00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:49.079
run away?

323
00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:53.160
Not as it ran away?

324
00:17:53.319 --> 00:17:56.680
I mean, I know that it was it almost kind

325
00:17:56.720 --> 00:17:59.359
of reminded you like when I was staring in the pace.

326
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:02.079
I do remember that it was wide, but I think

327
00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:06.200
it was just because of so much hair, you know,

328
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:09.319
because the hair was really there on the head and

329
00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:12.680
like above the eyes, there was a lot of hair.

330
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:14.039
I remember that on the face.

331
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:21.039
Gotcha, is this something that you would want to experience

332
00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:23.799
again or not? A chance?

333
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:27.680
You know? I probably would, you know.

334
00:18:28.039 --> 00:18:30.519
I mean, I mean being honest, now that I'm older,

335
00:18:31.319 --> 00:18:33.079
you know, I didn't even know what that was when

336
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:36.440
I was a kid. Just there was something scary looking

337
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:39.119
in the window at me. So I think I would,

338
00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:41.960
you know, I mean, I could take a picture this time.

339
00:18:43.759 --> 00:18:48.160
Okay, So that's interesting. So why would be So I'm

340
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:51.119
gonna ask what would be the main reason that you

341
00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:54.200
would want to be able to have that kind of

342
00:18:54.599 --> 00:18:55.599
encounter again.

343
00:18:57.480 --> 00:18:59.400
Proof to people that do not believe me?

344
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:04.240
That's that's definitely a common common thing you hear in

345
00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:08.480
accounts like this is trying to get proof so that

346
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:11.680
you know you've had it. Sounds like you've had multiple

347
00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:15.640
times where just people do not do not believe you.

348
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:18.599
But why would you Why would you choose to come

349
00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:21.880
on a platform like this where you know so many

350
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:24.680
people would be hearing your story.

351
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:30.279
Honestly, my kids talked me into doing it so they'd

352
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:32.279
be like, Mom, you have this really unique story.

353
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:33.119
You need to tell it.

354
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:37.000
You know, people would be very interested because you had

355
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:40.400
probably maybe one of the closest accounters ever with the Bigfoot,

356
00:19:40.519 --> 00:19:42.319
So you know, you need to tell your story. And

357
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:45.839
I was like, Okay, my daughter saw your show, made

358
00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:48.960
me come watch it your podcast, and so I watched some,

359
00:19:49.599 --> 00:19:52.759
listen to some and so I found you on TikTok

360
00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:54.559
and now here we are.

361
00:19:55.720 --> 00:19:58.160
That's great, you know, I would say it is definitely

362
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:01.440
one of the closest accounts that I've heard I've heard

363
00:20:01.440 --> 00:20:05.359
maybe I could think of one or two others that

364
00:20:05.400 --> 00:20:09.279
were that are this close. Have you ever had any

365
00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:13.160
other things happen in your life that are out of

366
00:20:13.200 --> 00:20:14.680
the normal realm of.

367
00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:18.960
Things, not that I can think of.

368
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:23.440
No, that was definitely the most abnormal thing that has

369
00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:24.200
ever happened to me.

370
00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:28.920
That is that is really interesting, you know, I would say, Oh, man,

371
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:31.359
I would say ninety ninety five percent of the time

372
00:20:31.599 --> 00:20:35.720
we talk to witnesses and there seems to be usually

373
00:20:35.839 --> 00:20:42.160
in a common thread where it's not just them experiencing

374
00:20:42.160 --> 00:20:45.960
the Bigfoot, but then they go on to experience other things,

375
00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:49.640
you know, if it's like a shadow person or a ghost,

376
00:20:49.799 --> 00:20:53.480
or you know, just other weird things around their house

377
00:20:53.640 --> 00:20:56.720
or you know. But yeah, that's that's very interesting. That

378
00:20:56.799 --> 00:21:00.599
this was the one time in your life based on

379
00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:06.640
the things that you experienced that night, would you classify

380
00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:09.680
what you saw as something that was more human like

381
00:21:10.119 --> 00:21:14.640
or ape like or maybe just something completely different.

382
00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:24.279
By the eyes, it was, I mean human like, but

383
00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:26.960
you know, I mean by looking at it, definitely ape like.

384
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:32.200
So I've definitely had more like human type qualities like

385
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:35.000
watching it run and the way it moved, and you

386
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:39.119
know what I mean, the connection of the emotional connection

387
00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:39.880
in the eyes.

388
00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:47.519
Absolutely. Have you heard of any bigfoot interactions happening in

389
00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:49.640
this area in current day at all?

390
00:21:51.319 --> 00:21:51.839
I have not.

391
00:21:54.440 --> 00:21:58.559
Interesting, Well, it's an area I don't think it has

392
00:21:58.599 --> 00:22:01.839
ever come up. So that's why I'm definitely glad that

393
00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:04.039
you were able to reach out because it's kind of

394
00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:09.200
helps us, helps us that are really into this stuff,

395
00:22:09.240 --> 00:22:11.119
you know, figure out. We know that there's been tons

396
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:14.640
of activity up in Garden of the Gods, but this

397
00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:19.240
brown field is kind of more more southern down by

398
00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:20.319
the Ohio River.

399
00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:24.720
Yeah. Yeah, it's actually in Pope County.

400
00:22:24.960 --> 00:22:27.880
Amanda. I want to say thank you for taking some

401
00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:30.920
time out of your Sunday afternoon and for sharing what

402
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:36.240
you experienced that night. If you ever you know, run

403
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:39.839
across anyone else that's had any other encounters. You know,

404
00:22:39.920 --> 00:22:42.279
I'd love to talk to them as well. And I

405
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:46.160
don't know if your aunt and uncle or ever interested,

406
00:22:46.240 --> 00:22:49.000
but you know, if they ever need any anyone to

407
00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:51.519
talk to about what the experience that night, I would

408
00:22:51.519 --> 00:22:54.160
be more than willing to talk to them as well.

409
00:22:55.680 --> 00:22:57.559
Yeah, and they may be open to it, you know.

410
00:22:57.680 --> 00:22:59.839
I mean I can reach out and talk to them.

411
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:02.519
Yeah, I mean, if you wouldn't mind doing so, that

412
00:23:02.519 --> 00:23:04.680
would be great. I would greatly appreciate that.

413
00:23:06.079 --> 00:23:07.079
Yeah, yeah, I can.

414
00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:08.960
I can reach out to them and see if they're

415
00:23:09.000 --> 00:23:11.240
interested in telling their side of the story.

416
00:23:11.359 --> 00:23:16.240
So fantastic. Well, give your daughter a thank you from

417
00:23:16.279 --> 00:23:19.799
me for convincing you to come on the show. I

418
00:23:19.839 --> 00:23:20.559
appreciate that.

419
00:23:20.720 --> 00:23:24.680
So I will definitely tell her thank you very good.

420
00:23:24.799 --> 00:23:27.279
All right, Well, Amanda, thank you for your time today.

421
00:23:27.359 --> 00:23:30.599
Appreciate it, all right, Thank you.

422
00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:33.880
Have a good day, you too, All right, big for society,

423
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:37.359
But the privilege of talking to Roger today. Roger is

424
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:43.319
out there from the Lincoln City, Oregon area, and he

425
00:23:43.559 --> 00:23:49.039
was connected to the show by a mutual friend, Susie.

426
00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:52.440
Thank you to Susie. And yeah, he's coming on the

427
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:56.200
show to share some really interesting experiences he's had over

428
00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:01.359
the years. So welcome Roger. How are you. I'm doing yeah,

429
00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:05.759
absolutely well. You know, I'd say we had a little

430
00:24:05.759 --> 00:24:08.599
bit of technical difficulties. I'm glad we're finally connected tonight.

431
00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:10.920
And you know what I'm gonna say, Let's make the

432
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:13.079
best use of our time. And I'm going to go

433
00:24:13.200 --> 00:24:16.759
ahead give things right over to you. Feel free to

434
00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:21.279
take us back to when this all started happening to Roger, all.

435
00:24:21.279 --> 00:24:27.839
Right, we started happening around twenty fifteen. Me and my

436
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:32.480
girlfriend were taking our RV over the mountain path out

437
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:35.920
to Road's Lodge area, which is about seven eight miles

438
00:24:35.920 --> 00:24:39.119
out of town. And we took the mountains that night

439
00:24:39.799 --> 00:24:42.000
and we come to a tea in the road, which

440
00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:43.880
I wasn't familiar with the tea. They were doing work

441
00:24:43.960 --> 00:24:47.720
up at that time. That made a new road, so

442
00:24:47.759 --> 00:24:50.000
we went down. We took the wrong way. We had

443
00:24:50.039 --> 00:24:52.400
to turn around and come back, and my girlfriend was

444
00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:55.279
following me, and I tried to stop at that tea

445
00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:58.240
again to wait for her, and I'm I'm sitting there

446
00:24:58.240 --> 00:25:01.920
in my van. I see it seemed to be what

447
00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:05.400
I thought was a flare kind of jig zagging back

448
00:25:05.400 --> 00:25:08.279
and forth coming down from the sky about that's kind

449
00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:11.759
of strange. And I look up on the bank side

450
00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:15.680
and I see what was the market only described as

451
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:19.240
a large male sasquatch standing there staring at me. I

452
00:25:19.319 --> 00:25:22.519
actually couldn't see that well see the windshield. So I

453
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:24.000
got out and make sure I knew what I was

454
00:25:24.039 --> 00:25:26.880
looking at and h and sure enough, there was a

455
00:25:26.880 --> 00:25:31.359
sasquatch down there snarling at me. Actually, he took one

456
00:25:31.359 --> 00:25:33.799
step off of that embankment and hit the middle of

457
00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:35.599
the road with one step, and then down on the

458
00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:38.799
other side of the road, down the embankment and moved

459
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:41.400
right up next to me. And at that time my

460
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:44.559
girlfriend was coming up behind me, so I walked back

461
00:25:44.599 --> 00:25:48.160
to the car to tell her to tell her just

462
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:50.559
not get out just a work was at and follow

463
00:25:50.640 --> 00:25:53.720
me and we get out there. But I noticed that

464
00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:56.759
the sasquatch what was down the embankment quite a ways

465
00:25:56.759 --> 00:25:59.799
and he was still probably about the level to where

466
00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:03.839
I was that as he moved simultaneously with me. Also

467
00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:07.240
noticed that he almost seemed to be floating. He didn't

468
00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:11.079
seem to be bouncing as someone would while they were walking,

469
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:16.279
especially on an embankment. So my girlfriend pulled up and

470
00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:18.599
I said, don't get out of the car, and she

471
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:21.000
asked why, and I was trying to step back, and

472
00:26:21.000 --> 00:26:23.279
I said, can you see that right behind me? She

473
00:26:23.799 --> 00:26:26.000
I said, don't freak out, and she kind of did.

474
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:31.200
And at that time, I will just follow me getting

475
00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:33.480
back in the van and follow me. Don't stop. We're

476
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:36.640
getting out here. And this thing had a snarl and

477
00:26:36.680 --> 00:26:38.279
it sa it's a mean look on his face, like

478
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:40.960
he did not want me there. I was talking to

479
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:43.519
it as I'm going back up to the door of

480
00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:46.039
my bank. I was a little scared, and I wanted

481
00:26:46.039 --> 00:26:48.519
to make sure that my little sound of my voice

482
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:52.680
was a demeanor that was friendly. And I said, you

483
00:26:53.160 --> 00:26:57.079
were awesome, because it was an awesome sight. Very tall.

484
00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:02.440
It was probably about nine all ten foot tall. And

485
00:27:02.920 --> 00:27:05.519
this thing demeanor only to look on his face got

486
00:27:06.160 --> 00:27:09.119
from an angry look to a curious look by the

487
00:27:09.160 --> 00:27:11.240
time I got to the front of my van and

488
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:14.039
I got in it and we left. That was my

489
00:27:14.119 --> 00:27:19.319
first encounter. My second encounter a few years later, me

490
00:27:19.400 --> 00:27:21.799
and a friend of mine had I used to live

491
00:27:21.839 --> 00:27:24.599
with him and his parents up on top of far

492
00:27:24.720 --> 00:27:28.200
Creek Mountain Bear Creek Road, and we went up to

493
00:27:28.279 --> 00:27:31.640
our old homestead just to check it out with our girlfriends,

494
00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:36.240
and we took right in that same area. We took

495
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:39.279
in one of the mountain roads back into town and

496
00:27:39.720 --> 00:27:42.160
we pretend. I noticed that we were having to stop

497
00:27:42.200 --> 00:27:44.359
every once in a while and pick these trees up and

498
00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:46.559
move them out of the way of the road. And

499
00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:51.400
it was happening every so often. And at some point

500
00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:54.000
we saw the pull off in little Camp area and

501
00:27:54.039 --> 00:27:57.680
we stopped there, take a break and enjoy the woods.

502
00:27:58.079 --> 00:27:59.759
My buddy says, he you look at me. He says,

503
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:04.000
grabbed your binoculars for me out of the car. I said, okay,

504
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:06.160
I grabbed my binocas out and I went to hand

505
00:28:06.200 --> 00:28:08.640
them for me. He says, no, check it out. You

506
00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:10.599
see back the way, we came to the tree tops,

507
00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:14.319
to the tree line, and I could see something moving

508
00:28:14.319 --> 00:28:18.759
around in the tree tops. I looked at my binoculars

509
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:23.000
and I could see what seemed to be two apes

510
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:26.400
jumping from tea top to tree tops. He said, are

511
00:28:26.480 --> 00:28:31.920
those juvenile saucequatches? I said, I believe you. I believe

512
00:28:31.960 --> 00:28:36.079
they are. And U don We had to move those

513
00:28:36.119 --> 00:28:38.039
trees out of the way to get back in here.

514
00:28:38.160 --> 00:28:41.640
We're like probably right in their territory, and these things

515
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:43.640
are jumping from treachop to tree chop. There's two of

516
00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:47.559
them and they're shaking the trees. They're all excited, and

517
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:50.920
John and I did, I'm just don dogging at that time.

518
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:57.920
We need to go because my boy says, almost stayed

519
00:28:57.920 --> 00:28:59.440
a little bit and check them out and we're just

520
00:28:59.440 --> 00:29:01.319
getting dark. That's how I said, well, we need to

521
00:29:01.319 --> 00:29:04.240
go now. Uh, what do you think the little ones

522
00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:08.000
are probably all excited about. Maybe mom and dad bringing

523
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:10.240
back a meat dinner is about all I could think of.

524
00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:14.480
About that time, we heard whoop whoop in between us

525
00:29:14.519 --> 00:29:20.119
and the little ones, and then immediately after heard drunching noises,

526
00:29:20.640 --> 00:29:23.920
charging noises from above us, right above us, and rock

527
00:29:24.079 --> 00:29:26.960
being thrown at us. So we got in the car

528
00:29:27.079 --> 00:29:30.039
and we got out of there. That was my second encounter,

529
00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:33.160
which I think was in the same area, could have

530
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:36.079
been the same. What I think is a plan of

531
00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:40.960
a family of Bigfoot and the exes or what keeps

532
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:44.400
it in mind because I keep seeing these xes with branches.

533
00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:49.440
So and then the third time, the last time was

534
00:29:49.599 --> 00:29:53.079
up in Rosalge area within a ten mile radius of

535
00:29:53.119 --> 00:29:57.799
the same first two sightings. And at this point my

536
00:29:57.839 --> 00:30:01.400
brother and his wife were up there and they keep

537
00:30:01.599 --> 00:30:03.640
coming to me and said, they see they keep seeing

538
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:05.559
some like some whites up in the woods up there,

539
00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:07.200
and they want me come up and check it out

540
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:10.000
with them. Uh. So we went up there that night

541
00:30:10.079 --> 00:30:15.000
and then just before dark and uh, the first thing

542
00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:16.960
I see was dopping is one spot. And then I

543
00:30:17.079 --> 00:30:19.880
see the axe again, and I also see a tree

544
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:20.920
down across the road.

545
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:24.319
Pigs a society who will be right back after these messages.

546
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:46.559
The tree appeared to be just ripped apart. They wouldn't

547
00:30:46.599 --> 00:30:48.720
cut down it and like it fell down and it

548
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:51.160
was just like the top of it just ripped off.

549
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:54.799
From about ten I thought it was very strange. And

550
00:30:54.839 --> 00:30:57.359
I looked up and looked across the road from when

551
00:30:57.400 --> 00:31:00.240
the tree was across the road, and I see the

552
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:06.119
X again. This seems to be our Bigfoot area. Frank

553
00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:10.519
it was my brother's name, And he says, what I said,

554
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:13.160
this is Bigfoot area here. This is that se the X.

555
00:31:13.240 --> 00:31:16.640
And look at this tree. That's incredible, and he says,

556
00:31:16.799 --> 00:31:20.720
what is this. So we ended up going up to

557
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:23.599
a spot just up from that that they've seen the

558
00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:27.359
lights at, and it was just baverly after dark, you

559
00:31:27.359 --> 00:31:29.920
could still see the outline of the skylight of the sky.

560
00:31:31.799 --> 00:31:35.000
So we stayed there for a few minutes, and there

561
00:31:35.079 --> 00:31:37.519
was some light moving around now and there, which I

562
00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:41.279
think I determined later was probably lights from the highway,

563
00:31:41.319 --> 00:31:43.359
which would be unusual to be able to see him

564
00:31:43.359 --> 00:31:45.839
from there. But I thought, what he must be some

565
00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:50.240
lights in the highway or something and h So we

566
00:31:50.319 --> 00:31:53.599
decided to head back down to that spot we were

567
00:31:53.599 --> 00:31:57.240
at earlier, and my brother's getting in the car, his

568
00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:59.839
wife's getting in their truck or whatever, and we're both

569
00:32:00.359 --> 00:32:03.279
He's putting his gun away and then I go to

570
00:32:03.359 --> 00:32:07.720
turn around and I hear a large snap behind me.

571
00:32:07.799 --> 00:32:11.000
I turned back around, and I see the outline against

572
00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:15.079
the skyline. I see the outline of a humongous creature.

573
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:17.319
I saw squatches what it looked like, and it looked

574
00:32:17.359 --> 00:32:20.440
like he had a tree parts in each hand. She

575
00:32:20.599 --> 00:32:23.759
just snapped a tree in half. I felt it scared

576
00:32:23.799 --> 00:32:25.480
the heck at me, and I turned to get in

577
00:32:25.519 --> 00:32:28.200
my vehicle, which is probably about seven and six seven

578
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:31.119
feet away from me. Just as I started to turn

579
00:32:33.200 --> 00:32:36.440
my vision blacked out, and all of a sudden, I

580
00:32:36.559 --> 00:32:40.920
was hit in the face and it blinded me. Right

581
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:44.319
after that, knock me clear up against my vehicle. I

582
00:32:44.440 --> 00:32:46.839
rolled into my vehicle and put my gun in between

583
00:32:46.880 --> 00:32:48.559
my seats because I couldn't see it at that point

584
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:50.839
and I didn't want to start shooting. I'm popping off

585
00:32:50.839 --> 00:32:53.839
shots at anything. And my brother says, what's going on,

586
00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:56.039
what's up? And I said, I'm hit. I'm hit. I'm hit.

587
00:32:56.640 --> 00:32:58.640
He had to pull out his gun and take a

588
00:32:58.640 --> 00:33:00.799
shot in the air to get these two things to leave.

589
00:33:01.559 --> 00:33:05.880
They take off at that time. I'm like, you're back

590
00:33:05.960 --> 00:33:08.440
your rig and let's go. I'm just now starting able

591
00:33:08.440 --> 00:33:10.880
to be able to see. We get down the road.

592
00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:13.000
We take off quickly. We get down the road and

593
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:15.559
when I stopped to pull up next to them, I

594
00:33:15.640 --> 00:33:17.640
rolled down my window and they looked at my face

595
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:21.440
and said, what happened to you? I said, I was

596
00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:25.200
hit and I could feel I could feel the fur,

597
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:27.960
I could feel the fingernail hit my nose, kind of

598
00:33:28.039 --> 00:33:31.000
give me a busted nose. But from my nose to

599
00:33:31.039 --> 00:33:32.559
the back of my ear on my right side of

600
00:33:32.599 --> 00:33:37.240
my head was completely bruised and bloody, and my brother

601
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:39.359
knew where I was standing. He said, listing around there,

602
00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:41.440
they were to hit you. I said, yeah, there is.

603
00:33:41.640 --> 00:33:43.920
There was a sasquatch standing right next to me, obviously,

604
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:47.759
and there was one against the tree line. And he said,

605
00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:51.000
are you serious? I said, yes, I'm serious, and not

606
00:33:51.079 --> 00:33:52.960
only want with them lights up there you're seeing, but

607
00:33:53.000 --> 00:33:55.960
there's a sun the family of saucequatch up there, and

608
00:33:56.039 --> 00:34:00.160
so I'll be cheerful going back up there and off

609
00:34:00.200 --> 00:34:02.839
that night, and that had shaken me up quite a bit.

610
00:34:02.880 --> 00:34:04.400
I couldn't get it out of my mind. I couldn't

611
00:34:04.440 --> 00:34:06.000
get it out of my mind. The more I thought about,

612
00:34:06.079 --> 00:34:09.719
the more I was able to remember seeing the hairs

613
00:34:10.199 --> 00:34:13.039
as my eyes I kind of blacked out from. Obviously,

614
00:34:13.079 --> 00:34:15.800
his farm in hand is kind of I think it

615
00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:20.320
had back ended me and I'm like to remember seeing that.

616
00:34:20.320 --> 00:34:23.119
I can remember feeling the arm and the upper and

617
00:34:23.280 --> 00:34:27.280
the fingernail to hit me on the nose. I thought, well,

618
00:34:27.360 --> 00:34:29.800
let's go back up there. I want to check it

619
00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:32.679
out again. I want to see what what you know?

620
00:34:32.840 --> 00:34:36.079
I want to see it because I wasn't able to

621
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:38.119
catch a full a glimpse of it at that time.

622
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:42.400
So we go back up there. Two nights later. I

623
00:34:42.400 --> 00:34:44.280
get out of the vehicle and at this time we're

624
00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:46.639
down at the lower area. We were seeing the tree

625
00:34:47.039 --> 00:34:51.000
going and the eggs, and I'm standing there. I get

626
00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:52.880
out of the truck. I got a light up a cigarette,

627
00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:59.000
and about two minutes after I've been standing there for

628
00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:03.000
my brother's truck the window open. I says, maybe we

629
00:35:03.039 --> 00:35:05.639
won't get anything going on tonight at all. I don't know.

630
00:35:06.559 --> 00:35:10.000
About that time, we here pop up pop. Sounded like

631
00:35:10.039 --> 00:35:12.199
gunfire to me, so I pulled my gun in a

632
00:35:12.239 --> 00:35:15.039
month against my doors truck, asking them is that gunfire?

633
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:18.679
Is that gunfire? He says, I don't know. Right about

634
00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:21.079
that time, we could hear the trees start to come down,

635
00:35:21.880 --> 00:35:24.679
these things, and I'm assuming that's the family of them.

636
00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:28.960
These things are snapping trees off like twigs, irritating the

637
00:35:29.000 --> 00:35:31.360
noise that we had made with a gun two nights before,

638
00:35:33.400 --> 00:35:36.920
I believe. At this point, I jumped in my brother's truck.

639
00:35:37.000 --> 00:35:40.320
Let's go, let's go, let's go, And as we grove

640
00:35:40.360 --> 00:35:42.800
out of there, I could still hear the popping noises

641
00:35:42.840 --> 00:35:46.119
and the trees coming down. These these trees are probably

642
00:35:47.440 --> 00:35:50.599
one hundred and fifty two foot trees, but they're snapping

643
00:35:50.639 --> 00:35:56.360
off like twigs. I thought, whatever they have on Bigfoot

644
00:35:56.480 --> 00:35:59.519
isn't enough as far as what the strength of these

645
00:35:59.559 --> 00:36:03.800
things are are. And then the massive birst of them,

646
00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:08.239
the one that I seen the person uh person counter

647
00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:11.639
I've seen. I've seen. I've seen the thing within twelve

648
00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:15.719
foot of me, and I could see details of the face.

649
00:36:15.800 --> 00:36:19.360
I could see no neck, I could see the broad

650
00:36:19.400 --> 00:36:22.719
shoulder muscles and the huge broad shoulders of wide nose,

651
00:36:23.239 --> 00:36:25.840
and the eyes looked like they were probably eight inches

652
00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:32.760
apart or better. I could see the teeth, uh you know.

653
00:36:33.760 --> 00:36:36.880
So it was a very very interesting Jimmy that I

654
00:36:37.039 --> 00:36:41.880
believe it was the same the same family of subsquatch,

655
00:36:42.079 --> 00:36:46.480
and they may actually have remembered me, and it may

656
00:36:46.519 --> 00:36:49.199
be that that's why they, uh you know it took

657
00:36:49.239 --> 00:36:54.400
a slapped me in the face. That was my encounters

658
00:36:54.440 --> 00:36:58.199
with with susquatch. And every time I've seen it go

659
00:36:58.280 --> 00:37:02.039
in the woods e minute or so, I get signs

660
00:37:02.159 --> 00:37:06.280
of you know, saw squats in the area or right

661
00:37:06.320 --> 00:37:10.400
there with mes. I've only seen him a couple of times.

662
00:37:10.639 --> 00:37:13.920
The little ones were really really really interesting to watch

663
00:37:13.960 --> 00:37:16.360
and see them jumping from cheep chop to tree chops.

664
00:37:17.320 --> 00:37:19.679
I think they send probably send the little ones to

665
00:37:19.800 --> 00:37:22.639
the tree chops when there's humans around, would make sense.

666
00:37:24.599 --> 00:37:26.719
And the females was the one I believe that was

667
00:37:26.760 --> 00:37:31.199
doing the whooping, making the whooping sounds, and the male

668
00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:34.800
was obviously one was making grunting noises and charging noises.

669
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:40.440
So that is basically my encounter. My brother had no

670
00:37:40.519 --> 00:37:42.679
doubt after that, and after the last time we were

671
00:37:42.760 --> 00:37:45.400
up there and heard the snapping of the trees, he

672
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:48.559
was absolutely convinced. And I told him that i'd have

673
00:37:48.880 --> 00:37:51.039
You know, I'd had encounters before, but I never really

674
00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:54.880
saw them or was resulted by them before. But you know,

675
00:37:55.039 --> 00:37:59.639
I did my perchoin encounters. I did see one big

676
00:37:59.679 --> 00:38:04.159
one second account, I seen little ones, and I told

677
00:38:04.199 --> 00:38:06.239
my brother, I think I'm running into the same family,

678
00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:10.840
and he says, well, you make a mistake. You you

679
00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:13.920
said you'd get activity if I if you came up

680
00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:17.960
there with me, and you were right. So yeah, he

681
00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:20.559
had no doubt at that point either of what we

682
00:38:20.559 --> 00:38:24.159
were dealing with, and we went up there a couple

683
00:38:24.159 --> 00:38:28.000
of times afterwards, but we didn't stop just trying to

684
00:38:28.079 --> 00:38:31.400
drove past because it was pretty intimidating when they started

685
00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:36.840
snapping trees like twigs. And we haven't been back up

686
00:38:36.880 --> 00:38:40.039
there since. I do I mean, I want to go

687
00:38:40.079 --> 00:38:42.119
back up there. I want to go back up there

688
00:38:42.119 --> 00:38:47.039
with offerings, fruits, some kind of gifting and see if

689
00:38:47.079 --> 00:38:51.079
I can get an exchange going on or something. I

690
00:38:51.119 --> 00:38:55.239
believe I know where they're actually homestead might be. Of course,

691
00:38:55.519 --> 00:38:58.119
they may not be there now. I'm not sure. I

692
00:38:58.159 --> 00:38:59.719
want to go back up there and check it out.

693
00:38:59.760 --> 00:39:04.880
Though it's a little scary. And that is basically my story.

694
00:39:05.960 --> 00:39:10.079
Roger, thank you for sharing. That is an incredible account,

695
00:39:10.280 --> 00:39:15.480
and you said that happened within the last ten years. Yes,

696
00:39:18.760 --> 00:39:21.800
I definitely have a few questions to ask you. That's

697
00:39:21.840 --> 00:39:24.920
all right about accounts here.

698
00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:26.559
Sure.

699
00:39:26.639 --> 00:39:29.320
The first thing I wanted to verify is so you're

700
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:32.719
saying that the individual that was with you did not

701
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:39.559
see anything hit you, but no, absolutely got hit by something. Yes,

702
00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:51.840
that's even scarier. Yeah, did you after that situation did

703
00:39:51.840 --> 00:39:53.960
you have to go to a doctor to be checked

704
00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:56.360
out because of the damage to your face?

705
00:39:57.920 --> 00:40:01.519
No, I didn't. I since you doctor think it wasn't

706
00:40:01.519 --> 00:40:04.239
that severe. It was just broll it bloodied and bruised.

707
00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:08.079
My whole right side of my face was from the

708
00:40:08.119 --> 00:40:09.360
back of my ear to my nose.

709
00:40:11.800 --> 00:40:13.599
How long did it take to recover from that?

710
00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:18.920
Oh, at least two weeks because of the Because of

711
00:40:18.960 --> 00:40:21.239
the nose, I think it was it was the spier

712
00:40:21.280 --> 00:40:25.480
nail that hit my nose actually and broke my nose.

713
00:40:28.400 --> 00:40:33.440
Was there an indentation or anything long lasting left by

714
00:40:33.639 --> 00:40:36.760
the fingernail or any other mark, Ye.

715
00:40:37.960 --> 00:40:42.000
Yeah, there was, although there was actually cut my nose

716
00:40:42.079 --> 00:40:44.920
and actually broke the nose. So it was a little

717
00:40:44.960 --> 00:40:50.320
swelling and obvious that something had hit me, and my

718
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:52.320
eye was black and my whole face was kind of

719
00:40:52.360 --> 00:40:54.440
bruised all the way back to the back of my ear.

720
00:40:58.480 --> 00:41:00.320
So he.

721
00:41:02.920 --> 00:41:05.519
It's even it's even wilder to think of it from

722
00:41:05.559 --> 00:41:09.199
the viewpoint of the other individuals, So because they're not

723
00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:11.760
seeing the sasquatch, but all of a sudden, they're seeing

724
00:41:11.800 --> 00:41:17.920
you fly backwards and your entire face just get extremely

725
00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:21.519
bruised and your nose get broken. Is that how they

726
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:23.239
described it or describe it.

727
00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:25.840
I don't, I don't. I don't believe he even saw me,

728
00:41:26.920 --> 00:41:29.199
but like he heard it, he was putting his gun

729
00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:32.599
away into his in his truck when it happened, and

730
00:41:33.000 --> 00:41:37.000
he heard he heard me. I said, wow, and heard

731
00:41:37.039 --> 00:41:39.519
me hit my truck, And so he bought back out

732
00:41:39.519 --> 00:41:41.519
of his truck and said, what's what's going on? Was going?

733
00:41:41.719 --> 00:41:45.000
I said, I'm here, I'm here, I'm here. And I said,

734
00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:47.119
they're right here, and he took out his gun and

735
00:41:47.400 --> 00:41:50.159
took a shot in the air from a shotgun and uh.

736
00:41:50.440 --> 00:41:52.800
And at that time I could hear both of them

737
00:41:52.840 --> 00:41:56.519
scramble and go through the woods, crackling and breaking branches

738
00:41:56.599 --> 00:42:00.480
and all the rest of it. I was surprised I

739
00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:01.840
was able to talk to me to go back up

740
00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:03.000
there with me two nights later.

741
00:42:04.719 --> 00:42:07.239
I mean, that hats off to you, Roger, because I

742
00:42:07.480 --> 00:42:09.840
don't man, if I was in your situation, I don't

743
00:42:09.880 --> 00:42:11.960
know if i'd be going back up there. I mean,

744
00:42:12.000 --> 00:42:15.239
it'd probably be a lot longer, especially since that you know,

745
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:18.679
physical or had just happened to you. But you know,

746
00:42:18.719 --> 00:42:21.440
what's the main reason that you would want to start

747
00:42:21.840 --> 00:42:23.800
a gifting scenario up there?

748
00:42:25.559 --> 00:42:28.480
Well, I'm not sure if it's a connection that I

749
00:42:28.559 --> 00:42:30.679
have with these things or not, but it seems like

750
00:42:30.719 --> 00:42:32.320
every time I go in the woods, I can get

751
00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:37.719
I can get I would knock back or actually get

752
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:40.679
them to come around. I don't see them very often anything,

753
00:42:40.760 --> 00:42:42.960
or I might catch a glimp for something tall and

754
00:42:43.400 --> 00:42:46.719
harry moving through the woods, But within twenty minutes of

755
00:42:46.480 --> 00:42:48.960
being in the woods, no matter where I'm at, it

756
00:42:49.039 --> 00:42:52.519
seems to be I get responses or I get, you know,

757
00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:57.760
an encounter. So I'm not sure that the connection or

758
00:42:57.760 --> 00:43:00.840
something with these things I have, But I don't think

759
00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:04.760
they were trying to actually court me. I almost think

760
00:43:05.000 --> 00:43:07.280
maybe this was the same family a big Foot time

761
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:10.039
keep running into, and maybe they just were saying, well,

762
00:43:10.039 --> 00:43:11.760
this guy, this is one too many times for this

763
00:43:11.800 --> 00:43:15.880
guy can't back the backhand or something. I'm not sure.

764
00:43:16.840 --> 00:43:21.679
I mean, it's very very interesting, and I don't speak

765
00:43:21.760 --> 00:43:24.320
to it too a bunch of people or anything except

766
00:43:24.360 --> 00:43:26.840
from their SUSI she had a shirt made for me,

767
00:43:26.920 --> 00:43:33.440
this is I got my big Foot. Yeah, I'm wearning

768
00:43:33.440 --> 00:43:33.679
it now.

769
00:43:36.199 --> 00:43:42.159
Is there anyone else that has reported similar things or

770
00:43:42.280 --> 00:43:43.960
sightings in the same area.

771
00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:48.440
Not that I know of. There there was for the casino,

772
00:43:48.760 --> 00:43:53.679
the expedition Bigfoot or one of those had come through,

773
00:43:53.840 --> 00:43:56.480
and I'd gotten tickets for me and my son, but

774
00:43:56.760 --> 00:43:59.559
my son had to work, so we didn't go, but

775
00:43:59.639 --> 00:44:00.960
I was I would have liked to have been there

776
00:44:01.000 --> 00:44:03.159
for their town hall meeting that they do and stuff,

777
00:44:03.199 --> 00:44:05.360
just just to find out, you know, if anybody else

778
00:44:05.400 --> 00:44:07.119
has at seeing these things around.

779
00:44:06.840 --> 00:44:14.760
The you know, having a visual and being in close proximity.

780
00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:18.960
There's a lot of different people that have different viewpoints

781
00:44:19.000 --> 00:44:23.119
of what we're what bigfoot is. You know through all this,

782
00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:27.199
do you have any thoughts about what Bigfoot might actually.

783
00:44:29.960 --> 00:44:32.440
You know, I kind of racked my brain thinking about that.

784
00:44:33.760 --> 00:44:36.559
I look online now and I watch online big putt

785
00:44:36.599 --> 00:44:40.039
encounters and stuff, and a lot of them are people

786
00:44:40.119 --> 00:44:43.559
see you know, UFOs or lights in the woods and

787
00:44:44.480 --> 00:44:47.199
things like that. And then and now I'm seeing videos

788
00:44:47.280 --> 00:44:49.559
of be saying the young ones come, you know, coming

789
00:44:49.559 --> 00:44:51.519
out of trees to their mom and stuff like that.

790
00:44:52.519 --> 00:44:56.000
So it's just it's a wonder for me, is there

791
00:44:56.079 --> 00:44:58.719
other people? Is there people out there that are experiencing

792
00:44:58.920 --> 00:45:01.079
this thing? And maybe even to the extreme that I

793
00:45:01.119 --> 00:45:03.920
am seeing the little ones up in the tree tops

794
00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:07.719
and stuff like that. Uh. That was that was probably

795
00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:10.320
the most one of the one of the most inspiring

796
00:45:10.360 --> 00:45:12.679
things I seen was a little one jumping from treetop

797
00:45:12.719 --> 00:45:17.039
to tree top, all excited and knowing that there's not

798
00:45:17.159 --> 00:45:20.280
aveny apes in the woods around here, you know that

799
00:45:20.360 --> 00:45:22.760
we know except for me the saw squatch.

800
00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:27.119
And I believe that's what you'd you had said when

801
00:45:27.119 --> 00:45:29.480
you saw them jumping from tree to tree. It actually

802
00:45:29.480 --> 00:45:33.400
looked like a type of ape up in the freeze, right.

803
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:38.679
Yeah. Absolutely. My friend was standing next to me and

804
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:40.760
he got better ice than I do, so he's like, no,

805
00:45:40.800 --> 00:45:42.519
look at the monocles he had me give him out

806
00:45:42.519 --> 00:45:43.679
of the car and should.

807
00:45:43.679 --> 00:45:46.800
Check it out big for society, who will be right

808
00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:48.159
back after these messages?

809
00:46:04.159 --> 00:46:08.039
Am I seeing like? And I said to me, like,

810
00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:11.719
a couple of apes in the tree? Jobs? Are those

811
00:46:11.800 --> 00:46:14.960
juvenile fast crushers? I said, oh my god, they are.

812
00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:16.719
And we just moved a bunch of trees out of

813
00:46:16.719 --> 00:46:19.679
the way to get into here. We should probably go

814
00:46:20.920 --> 00:46:23.400
because I had heard rumors about you know, bigfore even eat,

815
00:46:23.480 --> 00:46:27.039
you know, getting eating people or or something like that.

816
00:46:27.079 --> 00:46:30.679
At that time, I'm thinking, oh, good lord, they're probably

817
00:46:30.719 --> 00:46:32.760
excited because the moment, Dad, you're going to bring home

818
00:46:32.760 --> 00:46:37.440
to eat dinner or something. So we got out of there.

819
00:46:39.079 --> 00:46:44.880
I don't blame you, did you were you reminded of

820
00:46:44.960 --> 00:46:50.119
any particular type of ape when you look through those binoculars,

821
00:46:50.280 --> 00:46:52.360
or just ape in general.

822
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:58.840
Ape in general, I would have to say it. Well,

823
00:46:58.960 --> 00:47:01.920
the small ones, I would have to say, maybe chimpanzees.

824
00:47:02.360 --> 00:47:05.199
But that big one that I've seen the first time

825
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:07.719
I've seen. The first one I've seen was a big male,

826
00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:13.280
I believe, and he he, he looks. I guess chimpanzee

827
00:47:13.320 --> 00:47:16.920
would be about the closest thing I would I want

828
00:47:16.920 --> 00:47:20.480
to say eight. I want to say gorilla because of

829
00:47:20.519 --> 00:47:24.079
the size and the whiteness of the nose. The eyes

830
00:47:24.079 --> 00:47:27.039
were a little wide, but uh, you look on the

831
00:47:27.599 --> 00:47:31.679
actual face of it and didn't remind me of a

832
00:47:31.679 --> 00:47:34.840
gorilla too much. Nor did it remind me of a

833
00:47:35.480 --> 00:47:38.800
of a chimpanzee. Really, I guess if it doesn't have

834
00:47:38.840 --> 00:47:41.159
the roundness on around the mouth area, you know, like

835
00:47:41.199 --> 00:47:45.519
a chimpanzee has. This had you know, lips like a human,

836
00:47:46.239 --> 00:47:49.480
but a big, broad nose, very broad nose, and very

837
00:47:49.480 --> 00:47:53.880
white eyes, very hot. The head was coned, had had

838
00:47:53.920 --> 00:47:58.960
a point to it. The hair was very coarse, long

839
00:47:59.039 --> 00:48:03.360
and shaggy. The hair came down and said basically into

840
00:48:03.360 --> 00:48:08.920
his eyes and about halfway down the face and what

841
00:48:09.079 --> 00:48:13.639
else I remember about that on just the absolute size

842
00:48:13.679 --> 00:48:16.800
of it. It's just stunning. It's enough to make your

843
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:20.159
paw of, you know, stucking in your tracks and wonder

844
00:48:20.199 --> 00:48:23.360
what you're looking at, that's for sure. And my first

845
00:48:23.360 --> 00:48:26.400
feeling was to flee, get the heck out of there.

846
00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:29.719
But I just he was He looked at me, but

847
00:48:29.800 --> 00:48:33.440
just means a little demeanor on his face. As I

848
00:48:33.480 --> 00:48:37.119
went to front of the van, he paced me all

849
00:48:37.119 --> 00:48:40.599
the way, and again I noticed that he wasn't bobbing

850
00:48:40.760 --> 00:48:43.400
like a person would, especially on an embankment like he

851
00:48:43.480 --> 00:48:46.719
was on, and he just trying to smooth all the

852
00:48:46.719 --> 00:48:48.480
way with me at the front of the van. And

853
00:48:48.519 --> 00:48:51.719
I was talking to him with a very gentle demeanor

854
00:48:51.719 --> 00:48:56.920
and telling him how awesome I thought he was magnificent, magnificent,

855
00:48:57.519 --> 00:49:01.239
especial when I thought he was in the real home voice.

856
00:49:01.400 --> 00:49:03.440
And by the time he got to the van, he

857
00:49:03.639 --> 00:49:08.800
was his face had turned absolutely curious and almost suddenly.

858
00:49:10.079 --> 00:49:15.559
M M, that's that is just amazing. I think you

859
00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:19.079
had mentioned that you had also seen its teeth as well.

860
00:49:20.639 --> 00:49:23.960
Yeah, I give you that. I could see his teeth.

861
00:49:23.960 --> 00:49:26.119
I couldn't tell up there. He had like the you

862
00:49:26.159 --> 00:49:28.559
know bangs or anything like that. I couldn't tump every

863
00:49:28.599 --> 00:49:30.719
point or anything, but I could see that I could

864
00:49:30.719 --> 00:49:34.679
see the teeth. It was a nice time, and that

865
00:49:35.320 --> 00:49:37.880
whatever whatever was coming down in the sky that night

866
00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:41.440
a flare. I'm not sure what shooting star, but it was.

867
00:49:41.679 --> 00:49:43.599
It moved like a flare would back and forth, back

868
00:49:43.599 --> 00:49:46.400
and forth, and it was actually illuminating the area. So

869
00:49:46.440 --> 00:49:52.800
I could see him pretty clearly, dark skinned. H the

870
00:49:53.119 --> 00:49:55.400
girth of this thing, he had no neck, It was

871
00:49:55.440 --> 00:50:00.639
all muscle around his neck area. But just sure that

872
00:50:01.039 --> 00:50:05.239
the stature of this thing was he was from nine

873
00:50:05.280 --> 00:50:08.880
to twelve feet. He was just absolutely tall. I mean

874
00:50:08.920 --> 00:50:11.400
I was. I actually had to when you come down

875
00:50:11.400 --> 00:50:13.559
on the road, I had to look up to actually,

876
00:50:13.679 --> 00:50:17.039
and he was within probably I think I think the

877
00:50:17.039 --> 00:50:19.559
whole time he stayed probably within ten to twelve feet

878
00:50:19.559 --> 00:50:19.760
from me.

879
00:50:21.639 --> 00:50:23.360
That's extremely close to Roger.

880
00:50:23.400 --> 00:50:29.679
I mean, wow, Yeah, it gives me chills even thinking

881
00:50:29.679 --> 00:50:33.000
about it. Yeah, I get to find my chest's kind

882
00:50:33.000 --> 00:50:35.159
of going to just want the heartbeat rision and the

883
00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:39.119
gremlin bumpet whenever I think about it. That was the

884
00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:42.360
closest encounter I had up until the night I got

885
00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:46.800
smacking them in their pace absolutely, and I think I

886
00:50:47.000 --> 00:50:49.639
think maybe that those things were warned us because we

887
00:50:49.719 --> 00:50:52.840
had it we were armed or something, because they also

888
00:50:53.119 --> 00:50:56.480
two nights later they made mimicking challenges that they had guns.

889
00:50:56.880 --> 00:50:59.559
I thought it was gun virus, and then I quickly

890
00:50:59.639 --> 00:51:02.519
realized that these things are snapping trees, like, let's get

891
00:51:02.559 --> 00:51:05.760
out of here. They're they're showing, you know, they're you know,

892
00:51:06.000 --> 00:51:10.159
aggression what they're training there, and they're probablys saying, we

893
00:51:10.280 --> 00:51:12.320
got out things too. Yeah.

894
00:51:12.320 --> 00:51:14.199
And the thing is is that you don't know if

895
00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:18.159
they maybe they had a run in with other humans

896
00:51:18.239 --> 00:51:21.320
that were armed with guns and it was not a

897
00:51:21.400 --> 00:51:23.920
good experience at all. And so now when they see that,

898
00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:28.079
they're like, yeah, we gotta we gotta smack these guys

899
00:51:28.119 --> 00:51:31.159
around a little bit, you know what I mean? And right,

900
00:51:32.320 --> 00:51:37.280
you never know, that's kind of be just theorizing, but potentially,

901
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:41.280
you know that that sighting where it was extremely close

902
00:51:41.360 --> 00:51:44.840
to you and you could see its teeth. Where would

903
00:51:44.880 --> 00:51:47.280
you ever want to have a sighting that close again?

904
00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:48.920
Or is that something that you could live without?

905
00:51:51.679 --> 00:51:56.400
Well that close? Uh m, as long as I had

906
00:51:56.440 --> 00:51:58.599
the look on the face and when I got in

907
00:51:58.639 --> 00:52:03.440
the man and you know, I think the last one

908
00:52:03.480 --> 00:52:06.239
I had when I realized that there was one within

909
00:52:06.360 --> 00:52:08.880
ten feet in front of me. It was about the

910
00:52:09.039 --> 00:52:12.159
about the distance between the one that had initially snapped

911
00:52:12.159 --> 00:52:14.480
the creeto and I turned around to your first snap.

912
00:52:14.559 --> 00:52:16.679
I turned around, it was I could see the outline

913
00:52:16.679 --> 00:52:21.079
of it against the skyline. That's that right there. Scared me.

914
00:52:21.199 --> 00:52:24.760
And then when I've seen my eyesight blackened out and

915
00:52:25.119 --> 00:52:27.559
lap right in the face, you know I got when

916
00:52:27.639 --> 00:52:29.639
I hit my nose, I got the white light my eye.

917
00:52:29.760 --> 00:52:32.880
You know, maybe that hardware. There's just argue to see

918
00:52:32.920 --> 00:52:35.239
nothing but the white light at person. I rolled over

919
00:52:35.360 --> 00:52:39.039
my van, I put my gun away, and I could

920
00:52:39.159 --> 00:52:42.199
feel the thing just right behind me that I don't

921
00:52:42.239 --> 00:52:45.599
want to have another experience of that close now, maybe

922
00:52:45.679 --> 00:52:47.239
standing on the side of the road as long as

923
00:52:47.280 --> 00:52:50.719
I was, as long as I didn't, you know, get

924
00:52:50.800 --> 00:52:53.559
that feeling of that demeanor that you had at first again,

925
00:52:53.679 --> 00:52:54.519
I'd be okay with it.

926
00:52:56.760 --> 00:52:59.320
Yeah, I don't. I don't blame you not wanting to

927
00:52:59.440 --> 00:53:03.440
have any counter like that again, but I do want

928
00:53:03.559 --> 00:53:07.559
to to just check. So after you've had these experiences,

929
00:53:08.719 --> 00:53:12.199
you know, sometimes people have weird things start to happen

930
00:53:12.280 --> 00:53:15.079
at their home. Is that the case with yourself? Or

931
00:53:15.800 --> 00:53:20.320
is are things just staying in the woods, They're just.

932
00:53:20.480 --> 00:53:23.079
Basically staying in the woods. Uh, you know I live

933
00:53:23.239 --> 00:53:25.400
I live in town in Ncasini here, so I don't

934
00:53:25.440 --> 00:53:26.800
have too much going on in town.

935
00:53:28.519 --> 00:53:31.119
Gotcha that that is good to hear. Do you have

936
00:53:31.239 --> 00:53:34.440
any advice for people that might find themselves in a

937
00:53:34.760 --> 00:53:38.880
similar situation where they're very close proximity to them all

938
00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:39.360
of a sudden.

939
00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:45.920
I do. I would say be nice to it, talking

940
00:53:46.039 --> 00:53:52.800
as calm demeanor and just keep that fought in your head,

941
00:53:52.880 --> 00:53:55.960
you know, compliment them whatever you have to do until

942
00:53:56.000 --> 00:53:58.519
you're able to get out of there. If they're that close,

943
00:53:59.639 --> 00:54:04.079
you're anger. These things are even for the thought of

944
00:54:04.360 --> 00:54:08.480
a sasquatch and the size of it there, there might

945
00:54:08.559 --> 00:54:11.679
be a paranormal something or other with them, because snapping

946
00:54:11.719 --> 00:54:13.800
trees off like they do and pulling trees apart like

947
00:54:13.880 --> 00:54:18.320
they did, that is absolutely incredible, beyond what I would

948
00:54:18.400 --> 00:54:20.079
think that an animal outside could do.

949
00:54:23.159 --> 00:54:24.880
Say, that's that's good advice.

950
00:54:25.199 --> 00:54:25.320
Uh.

951
00:54:25.679 --> 00:54:29.000
Is there anything else strange that happens in the same area.

952
00:54:33.719 --> 00:54:36.480
Yeah, there's there. I have had encounters and still do

953
00:54:36.639 --> 00:54:37.760
have encounters with orbs.

954
00:54:39.559 --> 00:54:43.480
So are there sometimes when you just encounter the orbs themselves?

955
00:54:44.800 --> 00:54:48.280
Yeah, yeah, I don't. I don't really encounter the orbs

956
00:54:48.599 --> 00:54:51.000
with the sightings of the saucepotch or anything like that.

957
00:54:52.360 --> 00:54:56.719
And I see the orbs quite a bit. I go

958
00:54:56.840 --> 00:54:58.119
up to see a friend of mine up on the

959
00:54:58.440 --> 00:55:01.519
Selects Highway, a couple of miles up the highway, and

960
00:55:02.360 --> 00:55:05.800
we see the same orb we haven't seen in the

961
00:55:05.920 --> 00:55:09.239
last four or five years now go up and down

962
00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:12.440
the sledge and then it comes off of a mountain

963
00:55:12.719 --> 00:55:15.880
and then it goes right past us about I don't know,

964
00:55:15.960 --> 00:55:19.840
probably if you put up or so absolutely silent. We

965
00:55:19.960 --> 00:55:23.360
lived in an RV park up there, and just summertime.

966
00:55:23.480 --> 00:55:25.920
For time we saw it, there was summertime and there's

967
00:55:25.960 --> 00:55:27.519
all kinds of people out in the park, even the

968
00:55:27.599 --> 00:55:29.920
owners were out there, and we were pointing it out

969
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:32.599
to people. And that's when I realized that people that

970
00:55:32.960 --> 00:55:36.079
don't believe it, they won't believe it because we pointed

971
00:55:36.159 --> 00:55:38.480
out to them. They're just you see that, that's just

972
00:55:38.599 --> 00:55:41.400
right there, that's an airplane. No, look at it, there's

973
00:55:41.440 --> 00:55:44.360
no plasting life, there's an orb. It's silent and it's

974
00:55:44.559 --> 00:55:48.360
right there, and they it's an airplane. They have no

975
00:55:49.280 --> 00:55:51.599
no thought of it at all. They just glance up

976
00:55:51.639 --> 00:55:53.639
and that's it. That's a little distory among people like

977
00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:59.360
they don't they don't want to know. It's oh yeah,

978
00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:02.480
went under. My first my first account was when I

979
00:56:02.599 --> 00:56:05.199
was a boy. I was about thirteen years old. My

980
00:56:05.280 --> 00:56:08.599
dad left me alone after I gad a couple of

981
00:56:08.719 --> 00:56:13.119
nights and I actually had heard some noise outside and

982
00:56:13.199 --> 00:56:14.960
looked out the window and there was a sash spot

983
00:56:15.079 --> 00:56:18.000
standing there. I never told anybody this up until now,

984
00:56:18.119 --> 00:56:20.800
because you know, he didn't. You didn't go to your

985
00:56:20.840 --> 00:56:23.320
parents without stuff like that. Back then, I called the

986
00:56:23.400 --> 00:56:25.960
police and told him that there was a man standing

987
00:56:26.000 --> 00:56:30.079
outside my house, very tall, very big man and uh

988
00:56:30.519 --> 00:56:33.840
and I and I actually knew that I was seeing.

989
00:56:33.920 --> 00:56:36.920
So I grabbed my dad's rifle and I had it

990
00:56:37.039 --> 00:56:38.599
pointed at and while I was on the phone with

991
00:56:38.679 --> 00:56:43.119
the cops and about chat the had the cops. They

992
00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:44.960
was a state cop and he was from They were

993
00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:47.960
chasing out a Newport about thirty miles away. So by

994
00:56:47.960 --> 00:56:50.079
the time he got there, this thing was gone and everything.

995
00:56:50.119 --> 00:56:52.480
But and they took me to a shelter that night,

996
00:56:53.239 --> 00:56:56.559
But that was actually my first encounter with a sash pot.

997
00:56:59.639 --> 00:57:04.800
So you had pointed the rifle at them, but nothing

998
00:57:04.920 --> 00:57:05.519
was ever shot.

999
00:57:07.239 --> 00:57:10.519
No, no, absolutely no. He didn't come any closer to

1000
00:57:10.639 --> 00:57:12.840
the house. He was kind of poking out himself out

1001
00:57:12.840 --> 00:57:16.719
behind a tree, and at first I thought it was

1002
00:57:16.840 --> 00:57:19.480
just a large person trying to get into the house

1003
00:57:19.599 --> 00:57:22.400
or something, and that startled me quite a bit, so

1004
00:57:22.519 --> 00:57:24.079
I called the police, and it was when I was

1005
00:57:24.119 --> 00:57:26.199
on the phone with the police had actually seen it.

1006
00:57:26.280 --> 00:57:29.000
It stepped out from behind that tree and stood there

1007
00:57:29.400 --> 00:57:33.920
and didn't move for probably ten minutes. And I stayed

1008
00:57:33.920 --> 00:57:35.760
on the phone the whole time, and I was just

1009
00:57:36.559 --> 00:57:39.760
I just I found there. The didat this thing is

1010
00:57:40.039 --> 00:57:44.159
this person is absolutely humongous. I'm scared to death. Please

1011
00:57:44.159 --> 00:57:46.760
get an officer out here. I have a gun on him,

1012
00:57:47.199 --> 00:57:51.199
but he's not moving, he's not leaving. I didn't tell

1013
00:57:51.239 --> 00:57:53.840
them what it was. I just told me it was

1014
00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:58.320
a man. And I couldn't tell my father. My father

1015
00:57:58.719 --> 00:58:02.679
just he wasn't to golferen that kind of stuff. So

1016
00:58:02.960 --> 00:58:05.199
I never said anything to him except for that there

1017
00:58:05.280 --> 00:58:08.079
was a person out there that night. Because obviously the

1018
00:58:08.159 --> 00:58:09.599
cops would talk to him when he came back.

1019
00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:16.760
So is what you saw when you were age thirteen?

1020
00:58:17.000 --> 00:58:19.280
Is it similar to what you saw when you were

1021
00:58:19.360 --> 00:58:21.440
older or was it a different looked?

1022
00:58:22.679 --> 00:58:28.039
Actually it was. It was almost identical the features of it.

1023
00:58:29.159 --> 00:58:32.719
Broad shoulders, no neck except for that one seemed to

1024
00:58:32.800 --> 00:58:36.679
have a silver kind of uh silver silverness to the

1025
00:58:37.519 --> 00:58:39.840
to the fir like he was an older one or something.

1026
00:58:42.639 --> 00:58:47.519
But the heights and everything. Actually that one I was

1027
00:58:47.800 --> 00:58:50.159
I was shorter than so I'm not sure. But that

1028
00:58:50.280 --> 00:58:54.159
one actually we had a light, an outside light on

1029
00:58:54.280 --> 00:58:57.639
the outside of a tree that was just right across

1030
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:00.880
from it, and I could almost judge that we had

1031
00:59:01.119 --> 00:59:04.559
about ten feet up into the tree and it was

1032
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:07.840
it's just just about the same eyd of that. I

1033
00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:11.039
think maybe just under so night about nine to ten.

1034
00:59:11.119 --> 00:59:12.239
Put nothing that would have.

1035
00:59:12.239 --> 00:59:18.559
Been extremely interesting.

1036
00:59:22.159 --> 00:59:25.360
I would imagine, with all with the with the fourth

1037
00:59:25.480 --> 00:59:29.239
round here being a perfect habitat of these things, there's

1038
00:59:29.320 --> 00:59:38.199
got to be excitings of them here must But who's

1039
00:59:38.239 --> 00:59:39.559
a guy from Otis?

1040
00:59:41.119 --> 00:59:41.599
Jeremiah?

1041
00:59:41.719 --> 00:59:42.880
Was that your showy was on?

1042
00:59:43.800 --> 00:59:47.079
I've had people reach out to me about Otis before. Uh,

1043
00:59:47.280 --> 00:59:50.880
there it could have been. I think, I know. I've

1044
00:59:50.960 --> 00:59:53.599
heard things about Otis when it comes to Bigfoot. I

1045
00:59:53.679 --> 00:59:55.679
know there's a few people right now that are like, yeah,

1046
00:59:55.719 --> 00:59:58.800
I emailed you about it, but yeah, there's.

1047
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:04.519
A large area right outside of town here that was

1048
01:00:04.559 --> 01:00:06.199
actually I've seen something that said that was one of

1049
01:00:06.239 --> 01:00:09.760
the first fightings I recorded. Was in nest Wind Beach

1050
01:00:10.960 --> 01:00:13.239
and out in the Pacific City and Tema.

1051
01:00:14.519 --> 01:00:16.679
They're all in this area of the corridor.

1052
01:00:18.119 --> 01:00:22.199
I have seen that. I have seen the Prince in

1053
01:00:22.280 --> 01:00:27.400
the woods. I hadn't seen really during my encounters, but uh,

1054
01:00:28.000 --> 01:00:31.079
I have seen Prince in the woods and they're obviously

1055
01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:34.519
you know, they're obviously fas squad Prince are not bear Prince.

1056
01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:36.559
You know.

1057
01:00:38.000 --> 01:00:40.239
Yeah, I've seen Prince quite a bit.

1058
01:00:40.320 --> 01:00:44.079
Actually, is this uh this area is this considered the

1059
01:00:44.199 --> 01:00:45.719
Van Doser area.

1060
01:00:46.519 --> 01:00:50.039
Yeah, it's west of the Vander Corridor. Yes, just and

1061
01:00:50.280 --> 01:00:52.000
the last one where I got smacked, I was only

1062
01:00:52.039 --> 01:00:53.920
a couple of miles from the Vands.

1063
01:00:54.679 --> 01:00:57.440
Big for Society will be right back after these messages.

1064
01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:18.840
Okay makes sense now, Yeah, absolutely. I think it was

1065
01:01:19.760 --> 01:01:23.239
a researcher I know named Ben who focuses on the

1066
01:01:23.360 --> 01:01:26.639
Van Deser area that was looking at Otis.

1067
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:36.199
Down back in there. Has it been in town back there, But.

1068
01:01:36.639 --> 01:01:39.559
Yeah, I mean I've heard there's a lot of things

1069
01:01:39.639 --> 01:01:43.719
that go on in the Vanser border area that's pretty weird.

1070
01:01:45.920 --> 01:01:50.679
I feel pretty confident that the fightings I see and

1071
01:01:50.800 --> 01:01:52.840
the encounters I have, most of them are just encounters.

1072
01:01:52.880 --> 01:01:55.800
I don't I don't see them. Every time I can

1073
01:01:55.880 --> 01:01:58.079
tell they're there. I know they're there. They you know,

1074
01:01:58.159 --> 01:02:02.000
they let me know they're there. Almost to the confidence

1075
01:02:02.119 --> 01:02:05.000
of each time I go up there, I get an encounter.

1076
01:02:05.400 --> 01:02:08.239
I could take non believers up there, and you know,

1077
01:02:08.320 --> 01:02:10.679
I almost guaranteed that they've put in you know, twenty

1078
01:02:10.880 --> 01:02:13.639
or forty minutes, we would have some kind of an encounter,

1079
01:02:14.639 --> 01:02:17.440
they would come around. All have to do is really

1080
01:02:17.519 --> 01:02:19.559
is kind of think about them pretty much. Maybe a

1081
01:02:19.599 --> 01:02:22.559
couple of wood knocks and and you know, next thing,

1082
01:02:22.599 --> 01:02:26.199
and know where there's snapping trees going on, snapping branches

1083
01:02:26.239 --> 01:02:29.599
going on around me. And you know, in fact, after that,

1084
01:02:29.880 --> 01:02:32.519
my brother and his wife and we get friends, we

1085
01:02:32.679 --> 01:02:35.320
go up in that area and we would park up

1086
01:02:35.360 --> 01:02:37.000
in there and just turn out all the lights off

1087
01:02:37.039 --> 01:02:39.800
the vehicle, and these things were probably were they were,

1088
01:02:39.920 --> 01:02:41.679
they should be like popping right out of the bushes,

1089
01:02:41.760 --> 01:02:46.360
right that is, you know, almost and they I believe

1090
01:02:46.440 --> 01:02:51.159
they mimic lots of animals and woods. One especially would

1091
01:02:51.199 --> 01:02:54.039
be an owl. I believe they can mike owls.

1092
01:02:56.679 --> 01:03:00.519
Are there examples where you've heard owl mimicry yourself?

1093
01:03:02.679 --> 01:03:05.119
Yeah, I've you know, I've even got pictures on my

1094
01:03:05.159 --> 01:03:07.760
phone of owls in the area that I take pictures of.

1095
01:03:08.239 --> 01:03:10.519
I know, I'm familiar with what they sound like, but

1096
01:03:10.679 --> 01:03:17.280
you know, their behavior patterns and these things. But when

1097
01:03:17.320 --> 01:03:20.960
I hear an owl when I'm having an encounter, I

1098
01:03:21.119 --> 01:03:23.360
don't know if it's in maybe if you think I'm

1099
01:03:23.400 --> 01:03:26.320
mimicking it now, or an owl letting these things, you know,

1100
01:03:26.440 --> 01:03:28.480
or letting the rest of the forest you know there's

1101
01:03:29.000 --> 01:03:31.920
humans in the area, or something like that. There has

1102
01:03:32.000 --> 01:03:34.880
been incidence where me my brother both have heard owls

1103
01:03:35.000 --> 01:03:38.039
and we're certain that they you know, either the owl

1104
01:03:38.159 --> 01:03:40.159
was letting them, letting something know that we were in

1105
01:03:40.239 --> 01:03:43.920
the area, or or you know, or it was them

1106
01:03:44.039 --> 01:03:48.920
themselves mimicking. And now I do seem to when I

1107
01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:50.960
get encounters in the woods, I go in the woods,

1108
01:03:51.639 --> 01:03:54.000
and but in twenty three minutes I'll do some woodknocks

1109
01:03:54.079 --> 01:03:57.679
or something like that because I'm interested now, I'm I'm

1110
01:03:57.960 --> 01:04:00.199
I'm fascinated. Now. I want to know, I want to

1111
01:04:00.239 --> 01:04:01.719
know more. I want to know if the people out

1112
01:04:01.719 --> 01:04:04.480
there that seem little ones like I have or you know,

1113
01:04:05.760 --> 01:04:07.800
because it's frustrating when you don't want to talk to

1114
01:04:07.920 --> 01:04:09.800
people about it because are you're afraid of what they

1115
01:04:09.880 --> 01:04:13.400
might think of you. So so when I go up there,

1116
01:04:13.960 --> 01:04:16.199
I hear and one of the ways I know that

1117
01:04:16.480 --> 01:04:19.519
they're that they're in the area is I'll hear chatter.

1118
01:04:19.880 --> 01:04:24.079
I'll here talking what seems to be usually a male

1119
01:04:24.199 --> 01:04:29.199
and a female having a conversations. Not it's just kind

1120
01:04:29.239 --> 01:04:31.719
of like a conversation that you can't tell even what

1121
01:04:32.000 --> 01:04:35.000
language really it is, just but it sounds like people talking.

1122
01:04:35.440 --> 01:04:37.840
You just can't quite hear what they're saying or what

1123
01:04:38.079 --> 01:04:42.199
language they're speaking. And that's that's one of the promo

1124
01:04:42.280 --> 01:04:44.039
things that I get when I'm up there and I

1125
01:04:44.239 --> 01:04:46.679
realize that they're around, is I'll hear a little bit

1126
01:04:46.679 --> 01:04:48.239
of chatter going on between the two of them.

1127
01:04:50.760 --> 01:04:54.639
That's that's very very interesting. Do you have any thoughts

1128
01:04:54.719 --> 01:04:59.639
about do you feel that anyone can go to a

1129
01:04:59.719 --> 01:05:02.280
certain area and have it encounter or do you think

1130
01:05:02.360 --> 01:05:06.400
you have to be you know, maybe prepared in a way.

1131
01:05:06.519 --> 01:05:13.480
Or I'm not sure, but I think maybe that would

1132
01:05:13.519 --> 01:05:18.320
be an interesting thing to actually investigate that I can

1133
01:05:18.360 --> 01:05:20.480
tell people, you know, what I do should get my

1134
01:05:20.639 --> 01:05:23.639
encounters to come around. And that's you know, I keep

1135
01:05:23.719 --> 01:05:28.719
my thoughts, uh, very pleasant thoughts of them, and I'll

1136
01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:32.360
even speak as if they're there sometimes and I'll do

1137
01:05:32.480 --> 01:05:35.320
some wood knocks, and then you know, within twenty to

1138
01:05:35.519 --> 01:05:39.159
forty minutes, I start hearing the little chatters or wood

1139
01:05:39.199 --> 01:05:44.920
knocks or you know, uh, seeing things in these little dark, cold,

1140
01:05:44.960 --> 01:05:48.199
little dark areas of the woods. You know, you see

1141
01:05:48.239 --> 01:05:51.159
these shot you know, the shadows, pockets and stuff like that.

1142
01:05:51.400 --> 01:05:55.159
And then then you know, I've even seen a lot

1143
01:05:55.199 --> 01:05:58.760
of uh what looks to be shadows. Did you say?

1144
01:05:58.800 --> 01:06:03.320
They have dark really dark dark their hair really dark colored,

1145
01:06:03.840 --> 01:06:06.079
almost looks like it's almost looks like a dark shadow

1146
01:06:06.159 --> 01:06:08.079
or something. Sometimes, but you'll see the outline of them

1147
01:06:08.159 --> 01:06:14.280
standing or peeking around a tree, you know, And when

1148
01:06:14.280 --> 01:06:16.800
I see that, it's usually always always looks like like

1149
01:06:16.880 --> 01:06:22.199
a dark, dark shadow almost. So I'm really getting close

1150
01:06:22.239 --> 01:06:25.119
to look as I can of it, because I don't

1151
01:06:25.119 --> 01:06:27.360
want to see well, that you know there's something standing

1152
01:06:27.400 --> 01:06:29.519
right there. Can it not be something standing there, just

1153
01:06:29.639 --> 01:06:32.519
be a tree or you know. So, I'm very familiar

1154
01:06:32.559 --> 01:06:34.280
with the woods around here and what it produces. It

1155
01:06:34.360 --> 01:06:38.639
can produce some awfully intimidating looking tree stumps things like that.

1156
01:06:38.840 --> 01:06:42.800
From a distance, I'm always wondering if I'm seeing what

1157
01:06:42.880 --> 01:06:45.280
I am seeing. I take binoculars every time I go

1158
01:06:45.360 --> 01:06:45.840
into the woods.

1159
01:06:45.880 --> 01:06:50.719
Now, yeah, that's something I noticed myself when I was

1160
01:06:50.800 --> 01:06:55.639
on some forest roads in Oregon this summer. Is there's

1161
01:06:55.719 --> 01:06:57.960
a lot of stumps out there that are pretty tall,

1162
01:06:58.320 --> 01:07:01.079
and I can deftly see how I was doing some

1163
01:07:01.199 --> 01:07:05.639
double takes myself. But you mentioned that you've been talking

1164
01:07:05.679 --> 01:07:08.400
to them as well. Is that you're talking out loud

1165
01:07:08.679 --> 01:07:11.440
or in your head sometimes out loud.

1166
01:07:12.400 --> 01:07:14.199
Yes, And I'll do it in my head too. If

1167
01:07:14.199 --> 01:07:17.119
I just arrived something, realize that they're probably not within

1168
01:07:17.239 --> 01:07:19.440
your earshadow of me. So I'll do some knocks and

1169
01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:22.400
then I'll i won't think about them, and I don't

1170
01:07:22.400 --> 01:07:24.400
think about them in a very pleasant way. And I

1171
01:07:24.440 --> 01:07:26.599
don't know if that has anything to do with them

1172
01:07:26.719 --> 01:07:29.360
coming around, but that's, you know, what I try to

1173
01:07:29.920 --> 01:07:32.800
try to create under them. Is I'm there in a

1174
01:07:32.920 --> 01:07:36.800
friendly capacity, and I usually it's like, I think you're awesome.

1175
01:07:36.880 --> 01:07:42.920
I think because they are. They're awesome, awesome animals, you know,

1176
01:07:43.079 --> 01:07:45.599
So I kind of keep it that way and that

1177
01:07:45.760 --> 01:07:50.519
usually keeps them coming around, but not so close like

1178
01:07:50.679 --> 01:07:54.679
these last one. That's when I'm more comfortable.

1179
01:07:57.159 --> 01:08:01.239
Fascinating. Do you have a plan then to to start

1180
01:08:01.360 --> 01:08:04.719
going out and to h to start gifting or is

1181
01:08:04.760 --> 01:08:07.199
it just it may happen in the next months.

1182
01:08:09.159 --> 01:08:12.440
I'm yeah, I do. Actually I have a plan too minute,

1183
01:08:12.480 --> 01:08:14.280
but I kind of I want to go up there

1184
01:08:14.280 --> 01:08:19.840
with Suzie. Actually wanted to go up there from a distance,

1185
01:08:20.479 --> 01:08:24.279
but I'm not too sure if I would go back

1186
01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:26.119
up in that same area or want to have that

1187
01:08:26.199 --> 01:08:28.199
close on the counter or you know like that without

1188
01:08:28.319 --> 01:08:30.880
as I keep forgetting to bring some you know, gifting

1189
01:08:31.039 --> 01:08:33.720
items up there, root or whatever it might be. Uh

1190
01:08:34.600 --> 01:08:36.399
So that's just that's something that's been on my mind

1191
01:08:36.439 --> 01:08:37.960
for a while. I want to go back up there

1192
01:08:38.680 --> 01:08:41.840
to that very spot actually and and see if I

1193
01:08:41.880 --> 01:08:45.680
can get some gifting going on, or you know, come

1194
01:08:45.760 --> 01:08:47.960
back the next day sheep and everything through gone, or

1195
01:08:48.760 --> 01:08:53.039
or maybe even set up the trail camera. I know

1196
01:08:53.159 --> 01:08:53.399
we do.

1197
01:08:55.239 --> 01:08:58.359
Well, I would say, you know, definitely keep us in

1198
01:08:58.439 --> 01:09:00.840
the loop with if anything happened is when you go

1199
01:09:01.000 --> 01:09:04.159
up there and and maybe start gifting as well.

1200
01:09:04.479 --> 01:09:09.760
I'd be very interested now, yeah, and my incomperency like

1201
01:09:10.039 --> 01:09:11.680
my brother, if you'll go back up there with me,

1202
01:09:11.760 --> 01:09:15.159
I'm sure. And if we can get anything on recording you,

1203
01:09:15.239 --> 01:09:17.039
I'd like to take a jam to order if there

1204
01:09:17.159 --> 01:09:19.800
was this or something. She can get anything on audio video,

1205
01:09:19.920 --> 01:09:20.399
anything we.

1206
01:09:20.439 --> 01:09:27.119
Can absolutely, Roger, it has been a pleasure talking to

1207
01:09:27.159 --> 01:09:31.720
you tonight, and thank you for reaching out. Thank you

1208
01:09:31.800 --> 01:09:34.479
to Susie for setting this up as well. Did you

1209
01:09:34.600 --> 01:09:37.960
have any final thoughts that you might want to share

1210
01:09:38.239 --> 01:09:41.720
about your encounters with Bigfoot so far?

1211
01:09:44.680 --> 01:09:48.560
Yeah? Actually, uh, just a warning. I guess what I

1212
01:09:48.720 --> 01:09:53.239
would be. I'd like you can created people your firearms

1213
01:09:54.239 --> 01:09:56.840
when I when I have I have my gun out

1214
01:09:56.960 --> 01:10:00.239
and we were there two nights after I got hit

1215
01:10:00.359 --> 01:10:03.680
in the face, any things started snapping trees off. I

1216
01:10:03.880 --> 01:10:05.640
was standing with my gun in my hand and I

1217
01:10:05.720 --> 01:10:08.079
looked down at my gun and I felt like I

1218
01:10:08.439 --> 01:10:14.119
was holding you know, like a needle that's only a needle,

1219
01:10:14.239 --> 01:10:17.199
or something like I'm because that's about how I felt

1220
01:10:17.359 --> 01:10:21.199
was these aren't significant enough to and I wouldn't want

1221
01:10:21.279 --> 01:10:25.439
to have to hurt one anyways. But I don't think

1222
01:10:25.479 --> 01:10:28.479
the guns would have done us any good. These things

1223
01:10:28.520 --> 01:10:31.520
are just too massive, they're too strong, they're too fast,

1224
01:10:32.439 --> 01:10:35.960
and so since them, when I go up in the woods,

1225
01:10:35.960 --> 01:10:39.159
I don't carry my my firearm with me anymore. If

1226
01:10:39.239 --> 01:10:42.119
you can believe that, after that, I stopped taking my

1227
01:10:42.199 --> 01:10:42.800
fire arm with me.

1228
01:10:45.600 --> 01:10:52.079
It's extremely interesting, and yes, it's definitely I would say individuals,

1229
01:10:53.399 --> 01:10:58.199
that's that's something everyone definitely needs, the grips with themselves.

1230
01:10:58.520 --> 01:11:01.640
You know what will be there if they are going out.

1231
01:11:01.720 --> 01:11:05.359
Are you going out with someone else? Probably telling people

1232
01:11:05.399 --> 01:11:09.880
where you're going, some form of protection. But everybody does

1233
01:11:10.000 --> 01:11:12.039
have their own way.

1234
01:11:13.520 --> 01:11:18.960
Right right Roger, my brother's gonna want to take kiss

1235
01:11:18.960 --> 01:11:19.279
fie arm.

1236
01:11:20.119 --> 01:11:21.760
Yeah, yeah, probably.

1237
01:11:23.279 --> 01:11:23.560
About it.

1238
01:11:24.479 --> 01:11:27.880
I don't blame him, man, But both of you, thank

1239
01:11:27.920 --> 01:11:30.439
you so much for hanging out with me for some

1240

time tonight and for sharing what you've experienced. Roger, and

01:11:34.760 --> 01:11:37.479
