Ross is an individual who reached out to me through email with a few interesting things that have happened to him over the years.

0:49 So welcome to the show. Ross. Thank you good to be here. Jeremiah, we're talking a little bit in the pre show and there's definitely going to be some really interesting things that are shared. But is there any background about yourself that the audience would need to know before we get into what's going on today. I'm a longtime hunter. I've hunted all my life since I was twelve years old. I'm forty six, so. I know the woods, I know the animals. What's about it? Fantastic? Ross. Take us back to the first time where you had some kind of interaction with the bigfoot out in the field.

1:32 I grew up in West Virginia, Raleigh County, and my grandmother had some cows behind her house that had an electric fence around to keep them in, and ever so often the cows would get out, so they'd come down and say, hey, you got to get your cows up, for your cows are loose. So we'd go out and if the inbody's familiar with that, you got to round them up, get them back in the stall and everything. At the time, I. Didn't know that the fence had been run through, but I knew they was out, so under them up. And there was a community center upo my grandmother's house, and I walked up there just looking to see if there was any more out, and I seen something that looked as big as a Volkswagen going up to the hill. So I said, hey, cow, and it raised up on its haunches on its back legs and I didn't give it time to turn around. I ran, and looking back, I just think it could have been a big put I've never seen a bear as big as a Volkswagon.

2:26 But and plus it run it through electric fences running through there, busted the fence wide open. Now was this like a Volkswagen bug size or like a van? It was wide? Okay? Nah bug? It was wid wow. And you're saying that it was just running straight through electrical fences. Yep. I had two strands of electrical fence and four batteries on it. I guess it ran them through or it ran through the electric fence. I'm not sure which one happened, but we had to put them up, and that's what I saw. Did you go to the air are uh where it run through the fence after it ran through it? We fixed it, but I can't remember it. I was eleven years old, man. It was broke as the middle wire runs runs through the little electric fences, so it it busted through that.

3:17 And when you saw it get up off of all fours and start to run, did you have a back view of it the whole time or at any time did you see from the front or. I just saw it raised up on its back legs and it was flowing up a mountains, up a mountain behind the community center. I never saw the front of it. How long did it take to get up the mountain? Seconds? A few seconds, two to three seconds, and it was up a good little waves one hundred yards It went in two to three seconds. Oh wow? Was that the only time you heard about or you saw a big foot in that area or heard.

3:58 About that's the only time because the area was really mine, real bad, so there wasn't a lot of wild like. That man through is now. Interesting if it was passing through or what? So that sets you off into your how did that affect you after you had that sighting as a young person. I really didn't think about it until this second incident happened when I moved to South Carolina. I didn't really put two and two together because I always thought it was a bear. I thought it was a big ass bear, excuse my language. But and then I started thinking about what had happened to me in South Carolina. I'm like, that might not have been a bear. Started listening to your podcast and hearing other people's details and just think that it might be in a big foot, could have been a bear, but it's the biggest bear I've ever seen.

4:48 Take us through what happened down there in South Carolina. Okay, twenty twenty two. In July, I moved to Columbia, South Carolina, and I I hadn't been hunting for probably five years. I went through a real nasty divorce and didn't really feel like going. And then I moved down here, and I said, I noticed when we walked, we like to hike and walk, seen four or five deer on the property behind where I moved. And it's in the city. It's cities, you yet. Really, And so I applied for an urban archery permit and they granted it. So I started hunting back here on this fifteen acres and I was out there one afternoon in October of twenty twenty two, and four deer run by me. Nobody's going moving fast, like something spooking, and then three immediately run back by me. The fourth deer I never seen it. So I'm sitting there and I'm like, I wonder what spooping the deer? And I looked over and there I thought it was a hog because I've been laying out corn and fifty pounds of corn would get eight like a day. I'm like, what is eating? I was corn? I know it's not these four or five deer. It's on this fifteen acres. Anyways, I looked over there and I thought it was a and then it noticed me, and it raced to its feet and moved like twenty yards, and it looked like it floated.

6:06 I mean it didn't. You never seen no head movement or shoulder movement. It just moved twenty yards and it was coming to me. So I raised my crossbow up and I started barking like a dog at it, trying to I didn't want to spook the deer, you know, trying to holler at it or whatever like a dummy. I'm like barking at it. And it stopped moving, and I'm thinking, what is that? And it looked like when I seen it on all fours, it wasn't real to find, And when it raised to its feet, it wasn't real to find. It looked like the electric man. It was black and about seven and a half eight foot tall, and it looked like it had real sharp edges. It wasn't really fine.

6:46 We sat there for a little while and we're. Like looking at each other, saw waving and I really seen this. And then I heard a bard awl scream and it turned its head and it took off. But in the time that we sat there and was looking at each other and after it waved at me, I was thinking, what is this thing doing here? What is that? And it said I'm moving with my family. We're headed towards the coast. We're staying here on the abandoned buildings. There's two abandoned buildings on the property, and it said it was staying there. So I was like, okay, whatever. I didn't really I didn't never heard of mine speak until I started listening to your show after this happened, and then I said, maybe I should put something out for it.

7:33 So I put some coconut cookies out on the road. There's a dirt road that runs in front of this property and beside it to the houses. And it was gone in the morning. The coconut cookies was gone in the morning. I know nobody cook It was an open bag. I really don't know what I saw, but it was scary scriptity and the four deer running by me, and only three returning. I think there was two of them that was hunting. At least two of them was hunting, and God got one of them. Because you never heard anything, never seen the fourth deer. And there's nowhere to go but to the road, to the main road. The word the deer was traveling to. They was headed towards the main road, and they turned around and come immediately back.

8:18 You never found no bones or no blood or anything like that, but I can only it was either a monster, it was a bigfoot one of the two. That is really interesting. How long would you say the entire encounter took. It was minutes. It felt like it was hours because we sit there and stood at each other. It felt like an eternity. But it was a few minutes, two or three minutes. They just stood there and stared at me, and then it waved at me and was gone. Now, so you say that it waved out, you can you explain, Try to explain the type of wave that, because there's different types of waves that a person can do at you. It was like a goodbye or I'm really here waves.

9:00 Way I got it. You are seeing what you think you're singing? Is the way I got it and when it took. Off, when you heard the words in your head of what it was saying to you. Was it in a certain type of voice or was there anything. I never heard of. I never really heard a voice. I just got and thoughts, you know what I'm saying. It wasn't that audible voice. It was thoughts. And I was like, what is this thing doing here? And it said, I'm here with my family. We're headed towards the beach. We're staying in. I said, what are you doing here? He said, we're staying in the abandoned buildings. And it was all thought. It wasn't nothing audible, absolutely, but it sounded like a regular man's voice. It looked like a young one to me, you know, it acted like it was a juvenile.

9:52 So you're saying it was coming straight at you pretty much? Yeah, yeah, it was scary. Really did you get a really good look at its face at that time when it was coming at you? Then it was I couldn't see no details because it was not I don't think it was really in our one hundred percent into our reality. It was everything was glory, like the predatory and how the predator looks. Sure, that's how it looked. But you could see details. From the outside of it, but you couldn't see no details of the face or how long there was. And I think you had mentioned something before we started recording where it was almost like it was fading in and out or.

10:40 Yeah, it was just like you couldn't see no detail. It was like it wasn't in our reality. It was phasing the in and out of our reality. Was the way I've always put the way I've always thought about it. So really you're able to see almost an outline of it. Then, yeah, yeah, I can see the outline good. You can see sharp. The hair was real sharp. It looked like the electric man. Never seen the little labels on the old school electric cords had the little man on it had the sharp edges on him. Oh yeah, okay, yeah that makes sense now people, Well, it look like some listeners will probably have to google that, but that's all right. But I get what you're saying. Yeah, okay.

11:31 Did the thoughts continue after that or was that a one time deal? When it was right in front. Of you, that was a one time deal. Okay, I don't know that I wanted to happen again. Yeah, exactly. Have you ever heard of anything else like that happening in that area. No, I've never heard of it. I'm in the city, I mean the city of Columbia. It's poppy. I'm on the outskirts of town. But I actually heard a wood knock hunt in Manchester over in Wedgefield, I think it's Sumter County, and I heard a wood knock and I'm like, oh, it sounded like a big food.

12:13 But I never seen anything. And then about three weeks ago, I shot a six pointer and I watched it die. I watched it. Fall over, heard it fall over, and I went to pick it up. It was in some bamboo and when I went to pick it up, it wasn't there. And there was that you could see blood from where I shot and where it laid down, and the dragon marks. No, nothing, it was gone. That's the only thing I've. All the experiences I've. Had that is very strange. South Carolina is way. It has way more things going on than I was aware of it. Right about this time, when I'm recording it, I just made some videos on TikTok about some well there's a recent BFRO report, so I made a video on it. And people are going crazy. I've got messages where there are big foot encounters from all over that state of South Carolina. It is absolutely ridiculous. And I'm sure some people listening will be like, yeah, we told you, man, But it's just it's wild. It's more down in.

13:20 The Jackson toward the coast. This is over by Augusta, I think. County, Florida, Georgia. Yeah. Yeah, but there's a place called Crackerneck, WMA, and there's some stuff, some stuff going on over there, for sure. I thing to check that out. If you check that out, I would definitely be aware of what's going on around you for sure. Some Yeah, I looked at the BFRO website and I didn't see any really any reports from South Carolina. Was like one in Haken and Kershaw County somewhere like that in the nineties and one in two thousand and six, I think it was. And that's all that was on there.

14:02 But what I like to do as well besides the BFRO is I'll go to Bigfoot Mapping Project. I don't know if you've ever checked that out, but no, it's a really it's a great site because it takes the database of the BFROO, but he also gets a lot of stuff just sent in to him, and it puts up a heat map too. You go to bigfootmap dot com and using the different reports that are in different areas, it'll tell you the more brighton area is on the map, the greater chance or there's been more bigfoot reported in that area. And also another website you go to that's fun is the Gulfcoast Bigfoot Researcher Organization or GCBRO. It's an old one, like it's an old school one that hasn't been updated in a while, but there's some there's stuff on there you're not going to read anywhere else, So I would definitely check that out. There's probably some really good South Carolina ones on there. I would imagine.

15:09 I got the bug. Now I'm intrigued. Would you ever want to experience seeing one again? Yeah, I don't think it was just it was a shock of seeing something in Columbia. Of all places in West Virginia I've hunted, they're much rugged terrain that there is on the East coast, and I thought, surely if there was something out there, I would see it in West Virginia like that, not something going up a. Heel, but it shocked me. But yeah, I would. I think you got good ones and bad ones. I agree. I agree. Especially there's a lot of factors that play in You've got is the food supply running out? Or have they been have they been fired at by other people that might not have good intentions and then that makes them angry. There's all sorts of things that could play into it, for sure. Have you thought about what you saw that day and tried to figure out how you categorize it? Is it more a human type thing you saw or an ape or do you have any thoughts about that?

16:09 I think it's a spiritual being. I think, like I said, it was phasing in of our in and out of our reality. So everybody that says that Bufo is just a flesh and blood animal don't know what they're talking about because they've never seen what I've seen. And I can tell you that it's not just a flesh and blood animal. Oh, I agree, definitely, it's able to do weird stuff that science as we know it right now has no idea, or they're keeping all that stuff locked away from us, right. You know what I mean? Right? Yeah? Be the case. We're all spirits. We all die and our spirit goes on. Everything has a spirit. They just I think, have learned how to manipulate whatever that is, to fade into another realm or something.

17:00 It's very interesting once you look at the whole picture, and it's just interesting things that keep coming out. Sometimes it's different connections you'll see. Sometimes individuals will have Native American heritage, or there'll be a Cherokee connection, or just really interesting things. But this one, I'll be honest, I don't think I've ever gotten a report really similar to this one where it's phasing in and out and like the electric Man, this is a very unique one. Yeah, I think so too. It blew my mind. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. But it is what it is. I've seen it for a reason.

17:40 All I'll think of seeing this particular one. How has this affected you after seeing it? Actually, I had given my life to Christ in March of that year. I moved here in July, and it's just brought me closer to know that we're all God. God's got a master plan and we're all here for a purpose. I've seen it for a purpose. I don't know what that is. Maybe it was to bring me closer to him. But yeah, that's very interesting. Do you think it was you mentioned that it was definitely would you consider it? I know you mentioned as a spirit Would you consider it a spiritual being then?

18:24 Or yeah? I would? Now the question after that, then, is it a positive? Yeah, exactly right. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. I think it might be Nefhlin. That's the biggest thing that it's I've heard on different podcasts and stuff, people talking about that they've had relationships with them and they've told them, and these people have no reason to lie, just like I have no reason to lie. Who could make up a story that said that they talked to him and it said it was Elaheim or something like that, which is an if one.

19:05 Interesting. Yeah, because from what I've heard so far, you don't have a book and you don't have anything like that. That's your You're bringing out of nowhere. Sometimes that happens, but not in this case. You have nothing to earn or nothing to gain from this. Really, so, sir, just to get it off my chest, I will somebody I told my girlfriend and she believes me. She's actually a Shalman. I've never really asked her what she thought of You might be the. Only it might be interesting to ask her what she thinks. Yeah, maybe if you're wanting to, I guess that's a road you'll have to go down if you want to know that.

19:47 That information so interesting one. Also, if listeners have experienced anything and in the urban Columbia area of South Carolina, or it's seen something that fits the description more of what was shared today by Ross, it would be very interesting if you could reach out to me. The best way to do that is to send me an email, because guys, it's at the point it's wild. It's very hard to keep up with everything coming in. So email is the best way because it's more organized, more easy to organize and to keep track of. So Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com. So Ross, I'm glad that you reached out because, as I said before, this is a super unique one. It's good to get it documented for this area.
