Georgia Bigfoot Mind Communication!

0:00 You're listening to BIGFA Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere, and each one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are the voices of the people who've lived it. To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that just might change the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us, all right, pick the Society You've got the privilege of talking to Joy today. Joy's an individual reached out to me after the episode I did on the belt Road Booger down there in Georgia, and she's got some interesting things to share from her perspective about what she's experienced down there. So welcome to the show.

0:50 Joy. How are you doing today. Hey, Jeremiah, I'm doing all right. How about you having a great day? It's actually pretty nice out here in Iowa. It's starting to go down and you know, kind of hit the sixties and the fifties, so cannot complain. I'm enjoying that. Look, you know, I want to. Make sure that you have the time to share what you experienced, and we'll probably be chatting along the way. It sounds like about this, but you know, feel free to take us back to you know, when you started having experiences with bigfoot down in this area. In actuality, I didn't really have my own personal experiences until twenty twenty two. But I grew up in South Wolton County which now city of Southfolton, but back in the eighties, and my great great grandparents we were the first ones that were on this particular road. The house they built was in nineteen oh eight, I think, and I always and I grew up hearing stories about the Crumpton Booker, or which I later found out the Comptons.

2:02 You know, the Comptons were actually the ones that had this booger that would sit in their cattlefields. But my granny would tell me that he I think she had seen it the way she talked. I was just a little kid then, but he said it was always described as a white dog that would sit in the Crumpton's cattlefield. So this Crumpton booger, my uncles and cousins and everybody in the whole area knew about it. My uncle Hubert, he would tell stories about it. I never heard his stories, just you know, the one that my granny had said about, you know, that encounter. But my dad's brother, I had heard a story about him and one of his buddies coming back from this is probably in the fifties, you know.

2:51 For the timeline and this sort of thing, I'm not exactly sure. Like I said, I was a kid, but something had tasted him and his buddy in the woods and when he got home it was reported to you know what. The story that was told to me that he was very scared and thinking up about it. Didn't know what it was, didn't see anything. And of course my uncle Harvey, he would do wood route back when my dad was a kid, and you know, he would you know, ellude to you know, sometimes there'd be something out there and I'd ask my dad about it. My dad said he had never heard anything. He actually laughed at me after I told him. Might have had my fighting where I live now, but the belt Road Booger.

3:34 I had gotten married in the late eighties early nineties. I had moved my husband then, and I had moved down to Calida County, just outside of Palmetto with its moon and addresses back toward Cochran Mill and all this sort of things. And I had never heard anything when I was looking down here about a belt road booger or anything like that. But when we were building a house in nineteen ninety and my husband then had gone down to the house to backfill or so it's like late at night after he'd gotten in from work. Again. I don't know what this was or what it was, but he came back to the house telling me that something down there screamed and scared him to death. And of course he grew up, you know, rural, you know Sulton County. You know, he had hunted, he fished and all this kind of stuff. He had been an outdoors kind of person. He said, he didn't know what that was.

4:30 He just knows that it scared him to this, and he came running home. Fully, he left out of there in a hurry from the outsewhere a building. Yeah, and let's see, I drove a truck for a couple of years, and of course I've heard all these stories about, you know, people seeing things on the road, you know, driving a truck. I don't want to say fortunately or unfortunately. I never saw anything. And we used to run EYE forty all the time, my co driver and I never saw anything. What were the what were the kind of things that you would hear from other drivers about that area. Well, I never really heard anything from other drivers. The only thing I heard is like recently, within the last five years, listening to podcasts and about different driving things, because I know I was listening to one last night and the driver was talking about Palestine, Arkansas, and you know he had said he hit him and this other driver the only two on I forty headed east and said one jumped the six foot fence, came across two lanes, jumped the four foot media and went across and then jumped the six foot fence onto the other side. You know, I never saw anything like that. And you know, and I've heard another story about around Huntsville just I think it was a magazine delivery eye or something I'm not sure about, where he had broke down and you know, she had come face to face with one he was

6:03 like had to relieve himself out the side of his van, and one sort of came up upon him and it scared him to death. And I remember the podcast, it scared him really bad, and I'm thankful I never thought anything like that. But I do remember when I was like a kid too, camping and here's weird noises, you know, camping. You know, you kind of write it office whatever, who knows what it was, you know. And then listening to all these stories now the podcast, he has to kind of look back and I just kind of wonder what they might have been, if it could. Have been a big But all the things that you said at the beginning of the interview are those from the same county as when your husband Where your husband had that he heard that screen that was?

6:45 That was in Kada County, Okay where he heard that. Yeah, just across the Fulton County line, not too far from cocker Mill Park, which I think was mentioned on the bill. Rod Booger. Yes, absolutely, the stories you heard from growing up, were those also in the same county or a different county? Yeah? All in all in Southwolson County. It wasn't Cowie County, yeah, but it was in the very near vicinity. It was near Fairburn, Georgia where all this was going on. Gotcha, And you said you had some things happen when you were a Girl Scout leader. Yeah, I was about to say I was a Girl Scout leader and we had gone camping at the Girl Scout camp in Savannah, and of course some leaders have separate tints from the girls, and all the girls were I think they were. I think we had maybe six or eight girls and we had it was platform Dent camping, and the girls started, you know, started hollering, misjoy, you know, we've got you know, something's out here. You know, hell, you know, not help, help, but you know, we're scared kind of thing. And of course i'd heard scratching around and I think it was armadillo that was under my platform tent. But I did hear something walking, of course, you know with girls, and of course there's you know, we were kind of on the far side of the camp, but you never know what other kids are doing. And I know there were lots of deer out there, and I never heard anything, but it did sound like something by peedle walking out there, and I don't know what

8:16 scared the girls. They kept telling me it wasn't a deer, because I kind of thought it might have been a deer, and I'm like, no, no, it's not a deer. I don't know what it was. It wasn't a deer, so I don't know what had scared the girls. And you know, I look back over this stuff and it's like, you know, just these minor little details that you don't know what to attribute it to, would make some great scary stories, you know, but you don't know, can't say there was so squats, you know, it's just some kind of creepy stuff, stuff that would creep the kids out. And then let's see, Okay, Southlton County got remarried. Anyway, I live in currently live in northwestern Georgia. Further, it's about an hour northwest of where I used to live, and we live in the middle of the woods. I've always lived in the middle of the woods. I mean always, And back in twenty twenty one, I had a friend who I don't know if they had just started watching Bigfoot expedition or expedition Bigfoot, whatever it is, and they had asked me, had, you know, do you believe in Bigfoot? And I, you know, I thought, oh, yeah, there's one in you know, Washington somewhere, and you know, I'm pretty sure there is one. And I grew up my mom was all into the alien, UFO, Star Trek all this kind of stuff, paranormal, you know, so I kind of grew up with some of that in the house and had unsolved mysteries and Bertha well, anyway, so

9:54 I moved out here and after that, you know, my friend had asked me about did I even I thought, wow, you know, at the time, I was working night and I was listening to podcasts. I said, oh, let me just google Sasquatch and let me see what's out there. First podcast, and I started listening to podcasts and of course I think, you know, doors among others. The what I was listening to at the time was Subsquatch chronicles and it's the intro of course, you know how this on there, and I was binging this. It's like, you know, I get up for work late, you know, late in the evenings, you know, get ready, head out the door, and I'm just listening to this stuff in the truck on the way back and forth. And that started, you know, like the end of December. I started listening and I think it was January. I want to say it was January twenty first or twenty fifth or I can't remember my first actual fighting. I had gone out and Carport got my truck backed out, started out the end of the driveway we have kind of belonged dri driveway and got to the end of it, and of course I love wildlife, Like I said, I've always lived in the woods.

11:07 I pulled out in the driveway and across the road I saw these two red eyes and I thought, huh, that's interesting. Maybe you know it's an owl or something, because into my headlights were kind of pointed over that way, but the headlights didn't penetrate the woods on that side of the road really, but you know, I just kind of wrote it off. Well, turned right, and I kind of got this feeling telling me to look to my left and Jeremiah, these two red eyes, glowing red eyes were looking at me in through my truck windows. I mean, it was, you know all that you know, the weeks of podcasts that I've been listening to. I was like, I was amazed. I mean, it was a surreal experience.

11:51 It's kind of creepy, but anyway, so this thing is staring at me, and I'm staring at it, and it looked at me, and I know people talk about mind speaks to lepathy. It asked me. He said, who were you? Almost like it was surprised that I wasn't one of them or something. And the best I could figure is they had heard these whoops pops that you know, in and out me listening to this podcast, and I just thought back to it, like, you know, to ask me who were you? And I said, look, while I was looking at it, I just thought back at it and said who are you? And I'm like, oh crap, I got to get to work. This is just crazy. So I sped up. And this thing was keeping up with my truck as I'm going along looking at it thinking about it, and I had to have been going about thirty miles an hour maybe, And these eyes were about eight inches apart and they were, I don't know, probably about the twice the size of a human. And aside from the fact that they were kind of kind of red, they had you could tell behind the redness or it's kind of a reddish you know, like if you put your finger over a flashlight or something, you could see the iris and you know, the whites of the eyes, and you can see that behind it was. I don't know, it was just real. So anyway, over the course of the next year and I don't know, a year and six months, I don't know, it was over a year.

13:20 But anyway, for the next several weeks and months, it would be like every few weeks I would see something, and then after that it was anyway. I'm sorry, I get flustered. I mean, I try not to think a whole lot about it. It's like I don't really honestly don't go outside much anymore. It's like you don't know what's in the woods. Absolutely, and you're doing great. I know that. You know a lot of times you share what you've gone through and it can put you right back in that state emotionally, and I just want to say thank you for everything that you are able to share. It can be a very tough situation. You're doing a great job.

14:01 Yeah, I'm still trying to convince myself that it's real. I mean, I mean, in the literal sense of surreal, It's exactly what it was. It's like something out of a movie, like I don't even it's like I don't want to believe it, but I know it's completely and totally real. But anyway, over the next several weeks, there was an instance where I looked over in the woods a little further up the road and the red eyed thing was in the woods and they were or about I think four or five other eyes. These were kind of the yellowish eyes that were lower down, like the thing was like the side a tree, and these other ones were around it like they were crouched down or something.

14:42 I saw that and I just like, okay, don't I just been't, like it's not there, and I just kept on going. Well, a few weeks later, I was on my way to work. Further down my path. I'm the way to work. I looked over in one of our neighbor's pastors, and there's only two trees in the past. This night there was quote unquote another tree that didn't have any limbs, and it was about seven and a half feet tall, and it was kind of grayish, and it was very still, and it was literally next to the fence that was just right up close to the road. It didn't move. It was like a statue finding there and I knew what it was. I just said, it's you just want to I just don't want to believe it.

15:30 So anyway, after that, there was another incense. I was going up the same path on one side of the road, kind of up in the woods. There was one set of the yellow glowing eyes. It was like it was crouched down looking out over the pasture, like maybe it was looking for deer, because I mean, we had so many deer and so many wild turkey out here, it's not even funny. And again I was going down the road further down the mountains. Of course it's not really a mountain. It's more like rolling hills, high high hills or whatever around here. Anyway, going down the mountain, and this is crazy. It was probably about two hundred two hundred and fifty yards away, maybe a couple of football fields or sooth, and I saw it. It's like I didn't see it come onto the road, but when I saw it, it was on the opput, you know, you know, like oncoming side of the traffic, left side of the road from me, and it was running, it was starting to run, and its knees were bent. It was kind of a I don't know if it was the greatest golden I don't know because we don't have any street lights.

16:45 But in this case, it was close to one of the telephone poles, you know, with the lights on it, like street light thing somebody had put out there, and when it started to run its feet, it's I say, it's a cartoon like because it just was going so fast that it started to blur and the hair on it was blown backwards like you'd see like in some of these model commercials where they have this, you know, big huge fan blowing on somebody in their hair wown back, and it got to going so fast that it started to look like a puff of smoke, a fog or something. And I watched it go across the road and then I don't know if it's just again my brain trying to block out whatever, but it I didn't see it because there's like vegetab, you know, vegetation shrub, you know, hall weeds whatever over there, and I don't know if it had gone over and just dropped to the ground and I couldn't see it when I got up close to where it had gone to, or if it had.

17:49 You know, people talk about portals and all this stuff. I don't really believe in that. I honestly think that these things have capabilities beyond what sciences have really been able to deal with quite yet. But I think they vibrate so fast that we can't see them, and it kind of you know, like you watch the Flash TV show or whatever, how they get to run in so fast and then you know they can run through objects, solid objects, and they become a blur. But you know, that kind of thing is kind of I think these have some sort of strained capabilities like that. And then I'm thinking there are the things that happen around here, which in and amongst all this time, my husband came up missing. I always think it's funny the jack stans.

18:36 He had four, four orange Jacks fans, and three came up missing. It's like, who's going to take three Jacks fans and not the fourth? Like I said, we live in the woods. There's I mean, we can see one neighbor when you know, in the winter time when all the leaves are off the tree that are on the next hill over. But other than that, there's really not anybody around here. Sorry, I want to clarify sod real quick. So you're saying, I just want to make sure I got what was being taken. Yeah, Jacks fans, you know, if you jack your car up to work on it or whatever. Okay, like we did it harbor freight or something, thank you, yeah, yeah. Anyway, three of those that just disappeared off the property. We don't know what happened to him. And we don't know anybody that would take three and not four. A that's one of the weird things. And on my truck during all this time, the wheel weights usually, you know, when you get your wheels balanced, you know, to put the wheel weights on the inside of your wheels. For whatever reason, the folks I take mine to put them on the outside of the wheel. Well. Anyway, one Saturday, my husband's out cutting grass and he's like, what is this that keep it? You know, running over and looks and it was wheel weight and looked on my truck, my wheelweight.

19:54 All the wheel weights on my truck were not on my truck. It's like, who's going to come and take we will wait thaws, I mean seriously. And another time shortly thereafter, there were these fingertip prints. It's like, you know, I think there was three or four. I've got a picture, it's kind of hard to tell. And the light stuff that a white truck and it was just very light, kind of a grayish black mudge, not really kind of a pottery type gray smudge or whatever. I can't remember. Three or four fingertip prints kind of on my truck and they were too wide to be my son. Like I said, I've got a picture of this. I can send you pictures and things. And I guess because I had been out of work. It's like I'd taken some time off. And I don't know if they were looking to find me in my truck or thought I was part of my truck, or you know, like a turtle thought, you know, I was like the turtle in the shell or something and they were looking for me. That's the only thing I can figure out. Because it was towards the back quarter panel on the driver's side of the truck, like it might have been trying to look through my windows, for the back windows were dark. I have an SUV and just weird stuff like that. And then you know, I would hear noises outside and a tern on the floodlight is you know Christal flood light right here at the back corner of the deck, and I couldn't see anything.

21:20 I wouldn't see anything, wouldn't see anything. Well, there was a tree that the type of it had come down and it literally came it came down right on the tree line, which I just thought that was weird that a tree would come down and it's literally on the tree line. Like I said, not saying that I believe this or can attribute anything, just like spots or whatever, but it's just kind of odd because that's where I feel like they would be, is where this tree fell, because they could look in that window and watch TV with us if they wanted to, with a tree line where the tree fell. And I've heard anecdotal stories, you know that these things will you know, put sticks or rocks or something to mark out where lights of lights come on, because I've heard that lights will you know, make these things scatter or not come around. And I found I've got a picture of it. It's kind of hard to see because I took it out the window of where exactly where our flood light of lights up right there at the corner. There's two sticks where the far side of the light would be on the ground, and my son at the time was walking up to the corner. I don't know if it might be a quarter mile or so to the bus stop to get it on the bus. And one day he said he was coming home and he tells me he saw a bear in the woods. I don't think it was a bear.

22:51 We do have bears around here, but they're you're not like small black bears. And he said, this was a brown bear. It's you know, I don't think it was a brown black bear, which I know there are brown black bears, but I don't think it was one of the bearers around here. I think it was something else. One night before I had my sightings, I don't know how soon before, my husband never really did face, but he was coming home one night and he saw something red glowing in the woods on our side of the road, on our property, and he said it got him so curious that he actually stopped this truck, got out and went and looked, showing the flashlight around in the woods.

23:32 That he didn't see anything. Who knows, you know, who knows what the heck kut was? And it kind of the back before I actually had my sighting, there's a lot there's some back dirt roads and shortcuts you can take through, you know, around here to get to the school or to get to the grocery store because we're, you know, the closest anything's like fifteen twenty minutes away. And one of the back roads I was on there was a deer carcass like somebody had just killed it and thrown it out there. The whole thing, only the gut pile was laying out next to it. And this is like two thousand and maybe don't remember exactly when, but yeah, it was laying there. The antlers were there, the head was there. I mean, if it was a poster, you think it would have cut the backscrap out or it would have taken the antlers or something. But it's like the whole deer was laying there and this gut pile laying there like they had started to get it.

24:32 I've heard stories that that's what sob squats. I don't know. It was one of these you know, dirt back rooms that I was taking. I think what else has been oh, the scariest before again before my sightings. This is probably about two thousand and seven, after my son was born. It was one of those you know, mild kind of early or actually late winter, mild mornings, and I'd had the windows open here in the kitten area and I was cleaning. My kids were still in the bed, you know, my son was, you know, an infant, and I walked toward the kitten I heard this spring, snort, huff, noise, nothing like I had ever heard before in my entire life. Scared.

25:23 I stopped dead in my tracks. It scared me. I'm like, what the heck is that? It didn't got it? I don't know. I mean, like I said, it was like a screek, a snort, and a huff, just all kind of roll one right into the other. And I talked to my aunt about it. She's like, oh, it's the deer and rut. I'm like, nah, you know, you got on the internet. I got on the internet Like, Nope, not a deer and rut, not that, not that you know, and go through the whole animal mountain. No, it was nothing I had ever heard before, nothing I could find on the internet. And then there's that I have heard. You know, when we first moved out here, I thought maybe one of the neighbors, you know, way back on the side of the wood with popping wood or something, because you know, you hear this whack whack, and you know, I would always be kind of curious because you know it would only be two whacks, and who's going to chop wood and only do two whacks? But you know, you just kind of write it off as maybe some kids in the woods or something, you know, and that would go on off and on. And I've never heard any of the you know, Ohio Howell or the Serrus.

26:27 I've never heard anything like that. But I've heard something out here that sounds crossed between a hound dog and a Cody's And there's nobody on this side. You know, clo as a hound doog have codies out here, and I don't know, it could have been a weird cody, but it was. It was. It's been frequent enough that you know, you kind of have to wonder, you know, what is it. I have to wonder if it's like I don't, like I said, I don't know if it's Cody, or maybe somebody I don't know has a houndog somewhere. But it's just it's one of these weird sounds that doesn't exactly sound right. And okay, jump back. It's trying about being scared. Also, the six hundred pound owl phone.

27:15 As I was walking out one night when I was walking out to get my track to go to work, I heard an owl right across out of the car port in the woodline. It's a big owl, I mean it was. It would have had to have been a huge owl if it were an owl. And there was another one back on the turnaround of the driveway over on that side of the wood of course, it's pit's black. All this is taken place night. I heard another one and then kind of over further down the driveway on the other side, kind of behind the house, there was another one. That's all I could do to get out the door, to make myself walk, I mean, just to walk around the back of my truck to go get in.

28:00 I mean, it just I don't know, Like I said, I saw, you know, two different times the eyes. I saw the one in the pastor I saw the one running across the road. And then my son who played the band in October twenty I think it was I had gone down to get him after a football game, and this is the one that really tore me up. As I was going down. It was it was further up from where I saw the other one running across the road. This one was on the oncoming on the left side of the road. Looking at me as I was going down the road, it looked like it looked like a gorilla with salcer size eyes. I mean, like voids like if you I don't know, if you ever watched Land as a Loss. I don't know how old, the Land of the Loss that used to come on Saturday mornings and the fleet back with the big giant eye. Yeah, that type eyes. That's black voige is what it looked like.

29:09 And it was it was the color of night. I mean it was It's like like if your headlights with the headlights, it's like it was the same color as foliage in the night and the surrounding and that it was. It had the gorilla face. It was. This one was probably maybe six foot tall. And you know, from what I've taught to different people and things and heard things, it might have been a juvenile. I don't know. And too, I've heard things again the podcast and talking to people that maybe they look more like apes when they're born and they start getting the more human type face as they get older. It's what I've heard. So I don't know.

29:55 It might have been a juvenile. Otherwise it's an escaped gorilla. I don't know that foo of any escape drillers around here, no zoos anywhere close. And I cried all the way after I saw that thing. I'm just like, like, Lord, why why are these why are you so with me? These things? It's it's scary to know all the times I've been in the woods and these things have been there, and and that brings me back. It's like another time I had walked into the woods, just you know, it's like one of those days. I just had to go and I had to walk back to the creek and I was sitting back there and I was having a good cry, and I heard something move and I thought, well, maybe it's a squirrel. I looked around and see where the squirrel might have been, and I didn't see anything.

30:41 And then all of a sudden, I heard these footsteps like it was somebody. That's my cat by the way, and I said, hello, is anybody there? And I didn't hear anything. I didn't hear anything again, and all of a sudden, the hairs in the back of my neck just kind of stood up, and I'm just like, oh gosh, this is creepy. Let me out of here. So I left and came back to the house. But I don't know. I mean, just the stuff you grew up with. And I know these you know, my granny believes they were real. My uncles believe they were real. You know, too many anecdotal evident people will find footprints, which around here there's no where to get footprints. It's like we have a gravel driveway and you know, hardwoods and times and lots of leaf litter and there's nowhere for any footprints to be So okay, the people who don't believe that there's don't believe that there's sop squatch. I feel bad for them, and I kind of feel blessed to know that they're there and kind of curse to know that they're there because I can't enjoy the outdoors like I used to, you know what I mean, No.

31:52 I definitely do. And this is so we're talking about northwest Georgia right now, correct. We're talking about north plus Georgia. Yeah, where I currently live. That's where I've had all my experiences. But yeah, I believe that was a dog man that was which I don't know if the belt rod booger back to that. I don't know if that was a dog man he was talking about or what, But I think that was a dog of the Crumpton book I was told about leave that was a man and too. And I don't know if you know the author, Anne River Siddons, deceased, but her she had if you google it Anne River Siddons Atlanta Magazine and the interviewer asked her about her favorite myth or legend and she actually mentioned the Crumpton Booger and the way she describes it very interesting. Yeah, there's all down in South Folton area. There's you know, the Crumpton Booger was saying, and not the road.

32:50 But just just a double check this this area because I've talked to a few people over the years of out northwest Georgia. There are so many different areas in northwest Georgia that have bigfoot activity. It is absolutely crazy. We're leaving it at the general area of northwest Georgia. Correct, Well, I mean I could get more specific and say we're probably about thirty forty. Minutes north of by twenty Okay, gotcha. Yeah. And there's a gentleman that actually has a podcast and he does research and I got contact with him and he's had activity on his property and he's I don't know, not far from here at all. I mean probably fifteen minutes from here, so you know, and I, you know, I kind of laughed with the kids and said, you know, that's probably the reason we have because I haven't seen or heard anything in the last couple of years out of the stuff here which work. Like I said, I haven't been outside, and I said, as much as I've been, and I haven't. I don't work nights anymore either, So yeah, it is, it is what it is.

34:11 I can definitely understand that. I mean, you go through situations like this and it really really does affect you. And I don't know if people can understand that unless they've actually gone through that situation and that that gentleman I can't even if if that gentleman's listening, I'd love to talk to you in the area that you've been having these things happen. Have you ever talked to your neighbors to see if they've been experiencing things as well? Oh? Yeah, I'm glad you add I asked my friend. I said, I said, what do you think about bigfoot? And she said, oh, yeah, she said, there's a family that lives over there on the mountain. I said, really, I said, you've never said anything. She said no, she said her mom, which her mom's probably about ten years older than I am. She said, oh, yeah, my mom grew up over in such and such an area. And she said, yes, that when they were kids, they were out, you know French of neighborhood kids, about six or eight of them were out where I think, I don't know exactly how many. We're out playing in the you know, one of the yards, and one of these things stepped out of the woods and was looking at them, and her I talked to her mom, and her mom has had bookoos of fighting noises, creepy stuff that you just wouldn't believe she's seen, orbs, the whole thing. I can off I can give you her name and number, which

35:42 she's already said that you know, sheould be happy to do an interview. Yeah, thank you, Yeah, uh huh, and yeah. So that's that's that. And then one of the neighbors was coming down the road and I sometimes I'll do, you know, if you happen to be coming out your somebody coming by the stops, you know, chipchat, and I had asked this one neighbor asked him. I said, I said, if he's been any strange things, you know, like big frits, sofquice or anything. I mean, he laughed. He said, oh yeah, he is a thing about this out here. He said, yeah, he said, back before we moved out here, he said, we owned the property and said I'd go hunting over there.

36:22 And there was one who said it was a cold and he said, after it had ice snowed a little bit, he said, I was over there hunting and I was looking and one slid down and an abaitenment and said as it slid down, it turned around and looked at me. And I'm just like, Okay. Nobody around here talks about it, but it's kind of like one of these normal things, and I'm just thinking, wow, okay. And there's there's actually a wildlife management area I guess. It's probably about forty minutes from here, I guess. And there's one of the roads over there it's known as what was a hairy Man Road or something like that. And then there's actually just west of here, off twenty seven, there's you know, Booger Hollow Road or some Booger road. I don't know, all these kind of weird, you know, references what things around here. And then I was talking to my boss at the time when I was working night, and the dad was part of the tribe or out here in Rakey tribe, and they would have their talks, you know, their little cowows or whatever they'd call them. And she said her dad would go to these things and she would be there, and she said the elder that would tell the stories tell some really scary stories about them.

37:43 So yeah, I mean, it's it's it's out here, and I think most everybody knows about it, and those who don't are, you know, blissfully ignorant. Yeah, I don't. I don't doubt that. You mentioned a scary stories from from the those individuals, and I don't doubt it. I mean, this area that we're talking about, I've talked to other individuals. It's some really really intense things that happen in this area. So I don't doubt that for a minute. Man. It's almost like you need to have a big meeting with all your neighbors and have like a cookout or something and be like, all right, let's get all the Bigfoot stories out in the open.

38:28 Guys, get a game plan here. Oh, I think that's the thing about you know, move out in the woods. It's like pretty much everybody owns a gun. Everybody leaves each other alone. If you need a neighbor, they're there to help. Kind of thing. That's just kind of the mentality out here. And so you know, if you see each other path thing, you know, it's like, hey, how you doing? But yeah, we you know, that kind of really go on out here. Yeah, it's it's kind of similar to out in the Sticks, Iowa in a way. Yeah. But if something happens, man, and those those people are there for you, no doubt. You know, they're good people. So wow, intense intense stuff. My goodness. Is this a thing where so you mentioned that it's been a while since stuff has happened.

39:14 For you, right, Yeah, it's been a while. Is it a thing where you would want stuff like this to happen again? Or you're pretty you're okay with it settling down for. A while, you know, after I kind of molded over and yeah, I kind of don't like necessarily going back, like going over exactly how I felt at the time. Sometimes it will come back. I feel like, oh, there's that just reminded me of another thing which you're talking about getting you know, incidents. Yeah, I wouldn't mind because I think actually these things kind of wanted to interact with me is one reason, because I mean there's a couple other things I just remembered. I think they did want to interact with for me and the whole gifting thing, you know, I had actually, right after I had had my first two sightings, I called the BFRO and the guy that contacted me, and he's like, well, you know this is before I actually saw one face to face or whatever. He couldn't even report it. I mean, he couldn't even put it on the BNFRO thing at the time because I just saw the eyes while I was on her eyes at you know, at the time I had contacted him.

40:25 It still happened, too, right, It doesn't take away from that being real. So yeah, exactly, really exactly. But another instance on my way home from work one morning, and of course, you know you see roadkill like a deal, like if the deer gets hit, you know, you see blood out the mouth or broken legs or squist or something. There's blood somewhere. Well on my way to work or on my way home from work on the side of an embankment. It was a bare embankment. There was like a root or a large stick or something sticking out of this and this deer on the side of the embankment. I mean it was it was kind of steep. As the deer had fallen off of it, it would fell to the bottom.

41:09 I mean, it's not this is anyway the thing. The neck was bent backwards, broke backwards. There's no blood, no nothing, And it was like leaned over this stick that was sticking out of the embankment and the whole gifting thing. And that's what I thought, maybe you know, it thought I was going out hunting at night every time I would leave the house, and you know, and maybe I was inept to killing something somebody it was gonna give me something. There was that. And two, like I said, backtracking, remembering this stuff before I had my sighting, and where I was working at the time, high security, had cameras everywhere. You know. I was like, you know, the night manager, person on call there on fight, and all of a sudden, the police just showed up out of nowhere. Of course, they can get in police in the area can get into the fa village into the you know, gated area, and I'm seeing all these police on camera. I'm like, what the heck, what's going on? All of a sudden, I get a call from nine to one one sayings, stay inside and make sure the doors are locked, of course, and they're crawling around everywhere. And then you know, my boss called and said, what's going on? And you know, and I tell her, and you know, I said, I saw nothing on camera, and I lay there, listened to podcasts and watched the camera. That's that's what I did pretty much all night. Nothing nothing there. And the we never could or I never could, my boss never could at the time, couldn't find out who reported the incident.

42:41 Somebody was trying to get over the fence, is what was reported. And no, the police chief never told my boss who reported it or what they said they saw trying to get over the fence or what they just reported. Somebody was trying to go over the fence. And I look back on that and maybe this thing, you know, I mean listening to these pot casts and you know, if it, you know, identified me with my vehicle, maybe it followed me to work because I only worked like twenty five miles from my or at the time from my house, so I don't know, and it could very easily get to my work through the woods or down the small highway that you know, my work was off of to get there. It's without being seen. So you know, there's all kinds of weird stuff that I just you kind of in retrospect, you kind of look back and you wonder, well, you know, this is really weird. This is not something that's normal. You know, is it really attributed to bigfoot? Or are you just losing your mind because you actually saw these things, and you know, it's like, what else could it be? It's like, somebody, please tell me what else it could have been.

43:44 You know, it's such an interesting thing right there, because on the one hand, you know, we don't know a lot about your job, which is fine, but logically it would either you're right, it would either be trying to get in if it was a bigfoot that was trying to like scale fence, or potentially there's something in that place where you worked, where it was trying to get those whatever this company does. And it sounds like, since you're the one that knows that, that probably is not a logical option. There. Yeah, I don't. I don't think so. I don't think. I mean, it could have been somebody, but I don't think so, because the issues that we have that go on at that place, but went on there, could potentially have been somebody trying to scale the fence, but we had since I was there for like five years, there was never anybody ever tried to scale the vent, So, I mean, it was just kind of weird because anybody that knows the place know that the police aren't far away, and the police are always on call, and you know they'll be there very shortly, and you could get your behind shot right exactly.

44:56 I don't mess around in Georgia. Now you've had the opportunity or however you want to view it, of being able to see a bigfoot a few times, based on what you've experienced and what you've seen, do you have a leaning either way towards what we're actually dealing with when we talk about bigfoot? Could it be maybe an undiscovered ape or something that's more human like anything in your mind regarding. That, I actually think it's some sort of primate. It's like I Sai was saying about the one that I the younger what I believe to be the younger when looking like an ape, I think it's like anything else because you know, you look at animals, how they look any kind of like baby, gorilla, human, whatever they have, it's a baby face, and then as they grow up, they actually get an adult face. And I think that's pretty much what the deal is in their adult face and to look more human than a you know, gorilla or a chimpanzee or something. I just I think they're just another eight and I think they're just curious about us.

46:11 And I actually, you know, just from the stories about you know, some of the Indians around the country talking about you know, trading with them and this, that and the other. I actually think they are capable of something like that because if you look at, you know, some of the gorilla things, they've done studies and sign languages and how gorillas can use their monkeys or chimpanzees or whatever, you know, can actually use tools and you know, like get a stick and dig in and get ants out or whatever. It's like these things. If they're human, I don't think they would be living in the woods because I mean, I know very few few humans who would just go off the grid. And live in the woods with no electricity and no anything. I mean, so, I actually think these are some sort of the Eight type things.

47:03 You know. Of course we're eight too, but yeah, I just think there's just some other something that nobody wants to admit it or there because it would scare the pants off of everybody that went into the woods. And yeah, it's it's definitely a thing where when disclosure happens, because it will happen one day, there's a lot of people's paradigms that will be forever changed, and it'll it'll change society across the board. Have you ever been over to the museum and l j or blu rag. Matter fact, Yeah, yes, yes, but I spoke to the young lady in there and she told me about her episode on your podcast, and I actually got your podcast.

47:51 Thanks thanks, Amanda, She's great. Wow, that's that's awesome. Have you ever spent any time in the woods out there in the Chattahoochee National Forest airy or anything? I thought, I not exactly. I mean, you know, we kind of drive through there when I was younger. We did a lot of camping like it, like up around Cherokee, North Carolina, you know, like we'd go to Smokemont Campground, we'd go to Cave's Cove a lot, you know, just that kind of area up and there. We didn't do a whole lot at North Georgia camping. Yeah, it's I never saw anything when I was up there. Like I said, I think I mentioned earlier about when we go camping, you know, you kind of hear things. Which we went to Mammoth Caves, Mammoth Caves out there, the campground out there, and I remember out there hearing something at night like something going through garbage cans. And I remember just thought that was really weird somebody out and all the garbage cans that I had heard another podcast somewhere along the line where somebody else had heard sounded like something going through the garbage cans at night. I just thought that was kind of interesting. By north North Georgia, I haven't really done any too much up that way. First camping and out outdoors.

49:11 It gets it gets pretty wild. But I'm sure you've also heard things about North Georgia as well. But you know, joy it has been. It has been really enjoyable talking to you today, and you have had some really wild and interesting accounts happen over there in Northwest Georgia. I want to make sure that you were able to share everything that you came to the show prepared to talk about today. I don't think so. I'm sure there's something else that I can't remember, but there's always something weird going. On out here in Northwest Georgia does have the weird stuff going on. Well.
