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

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

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

4
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:12.839
something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to

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

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

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

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

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

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:32.600
So stay with us, all right, Bickfitt Society. You've got

11
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:35.479
the privilege of talking to someone I've been wanting to

12
00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:38.399
talk to for a while. This is Miguel. You may

13
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:42.359
know him best as Sasquatch Theory, one of my favorite

14
00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:45.119
channels on YouTube. Miguel, how's it going tonight?

15
00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:49.240
Man? It's going really good. Thank you so much for

16
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:50.560
asking how are you, dude?

17
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:53.719
I'm doing great. I'm up here in Iowa, so you know,

18
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.240
it's actually beautiful night out tonight, and I know you're

19
00:00:56.240 --> 00:00:58.560
down there in Missouri, so we're we're kind of the

20
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:02.039
Midwest Bigfoot guys. So that's pretty cool.

21
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:04.200
Yeah, it's a pleasure to speak with you today, and

22
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:06.040
I'm glad to be a guest on your show.

23
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:10.840
Absolutely so, Miguel. You know, I usually start out by

24
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:13.680
by asking the guests that I have on So what

25
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:17.280
was What was it that first got you into bigfoot back.

26
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:23.200
In the day. Well, well, got me into bigfoot for

27
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:28.920
my eyesight and encounters, and I've always been into the subject,

28
00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:31.959
and I listened to Sasquatch chronicles and watched like Finding

29
00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:36.040
Bigfoot on TV. But I had these strange experiences prior

30
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:38.879
to that interest, and I've always just been into the

31
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:42.239
parent normal. But the experiences that I had before my

32
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:46.040
Bigfoot encounters kind of just got me into the subject

33
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:49.359
and had me questioning what I what I had seen,

34
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:52.120
and I've just always been looking for answers.

35
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.959
Absolutely so. And the cool thing I like about your

36
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:01.200
channel is it's very unique because you're definitely focused on

37
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:04.519
the state of Missouri. And I remember thinking it was

38
00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:07.159
the coolest thing, because you know, everyone seems to be

39
00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:12.080
focused on your Pacific Northwest where you're Oklahoma or maybe Ohio,

40
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:15.639
maybe Pennsylvania, but like you're very focused in on Missouri

41
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:20.400
and these interviews that you're getting down in Missouri are fantastic.

42
00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:24.560
So I'm just curious, like, how did that process start

43
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:27.159
to come across? The people just start reaching out to

44
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:29.800
you and then you're like, hey, I maybe I come

45
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:32.360
out to your place do an in person interview and

46
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:33.759
then check things out or.

47
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:38.319
Yeah. Pretty much people heard about my channel and they'd

48
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:41.599
reach out to me by email or Facebook and we

49
00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:43.719
just get to know each other and I'd go out

50
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:46.719
there and investigate the areas that they had the activity

51
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.680
end and just try to do the best I could.

52
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:54.680
Awesome thinking over over the years, have you been privileged enough?

53
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:54.960
You know?

54
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:57.400
And this is for people that you know, there might

55
00:02:57.439 --> 00:03:00.599
be some of my listeners where they're they haven't stumbled

56
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.840
upon Scotch sasquatch theory yet, which they definitely need to.

57
00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:05.520
And I'm gonna have the link in the show notes

58
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:07.719
after this they can check it out. But you know,

59
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:10.039
has there been a time when you've been able to

60
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:12.719
have that face to face encounter what is what do

61
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:15.719
you think the closest that you've gotten to these creatures

62
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:16.360
over the year.

63
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:20.199
Has been I've gotten really close several times, and I've

64
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:24.319
had a handful of class a encounters. My first experience

65
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:27.159
started off whenever I was around ten years old, I

66
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:29.159
would say, give or take, maybe I was nine, maybe

67
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.240
I was eleven, but I'm gonna say ten. I was

68
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:35.319
sitting here in my bedroom. It was probably July, and

69
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.439
I had the window open and I was sitting there

70
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:42.479
watching TV. I remember watching Family Guy on Cartoon Network

71
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.479
and it was probably anywhere from around nine thirty pm

72
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.960
to eleven PM. I can't remember what time the show aired,

73
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:51.960
but I was just sitting there watching the show. I

74
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:55.400
had my computer on and I was just using Messenger

75
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:57.719
or I think it was like all at the time

76
00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:00.919
or MySpace. But all of a sudd sudden, I heard

77
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:04.280
this werewolf how I mean, it was deep, gutural, and

78
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:07.240
it sounded just like what you'd hear on the Hollywood movies,

79
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:10.199
and it just sounded like it was being blasted through

80
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:13.520
a PA system. It was so loud that whenever I

81
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.160
heard it, it just terrified me. The first thought that

82
00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:19.199
came across my mind was that's a monster. And then

83
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:21.680
I started thinking, maybe that's my brother out there playing

84
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:24.319
a prank on me. And I didn't know what to do.

85
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:26.079
So I went up to the window and just slammed

86
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.120
it shut, crawled up into my bed, got under the covers,

87
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.600
and I didn't come out till the next morning. It

88
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:32.879
really freaked out.

89
00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:39.439
That has got to definitely put you on a path,

90
00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:42.879
and that's something that doesn't leave your mind easy, for sure.

91
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:46.759
Yeah. The one thing I forgot to mention that, like

92
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:50.920
it did this werewolf, how it lasted like five seconds

93
00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:54.759
or so, and then after the werewolf, how something screamed

94
00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:58.560
like a woman. So later on, after I learned about

95
00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:02.360
the cryptids, bigfoot, dot man, I thought maybe like a

96
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:05.360
bigfoot challenged a dog man or they ran into each

97
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:09.560
other in the woods. But I also learned that dog

98
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.240
man can scream like a woman, and I'm not sure

99
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.439
because I've never seen one for sure, But it was

100
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:17.560
just a crazy experience.

101
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:20.639
In the years after that, and then looking back, and

102
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:24.120
you have all this knowledge now and how to research things,

103
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:26.519
did you ever look into that area where this happened

104
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:30.040
to see if there were other sightings and encounters of

105
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:31.879
dog man or bigfoot?

106
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:36.399
Yeah, I recently looked up on the I can't remember

107
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:39.839
what it's called, the dog Man Mapping Project or something,

108
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:44.279
and there weren't that many reports in Missouri There were several,

109
00:05:44.279 --> 00:05:46.800
but they were spread across the state. But the one

110
00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:50.519
that was close to where I heard this vocalization is

111
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:53.399
probably like five miles down the road. So it's the

112
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:54.560
same area.

113
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:00.600
Man, that that is wild. So after you had that

114
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.439
in you know, that auditory encounter, did that kind of

115
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.920
set you off on the trail to start looking into things?

116
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:10.680
Or did that happen a little bit later in life.

117
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:14.920
Yeah, that happened later on in life. I really didn't

118
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.040
know what that was, and I always just kind of wondered,

119
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:19.600
what the heck did I hear that day? Maybe somebody

120
00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:22.319
is playing a prank on me. And the next thing

121
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:25.079
that happened was I was in high school. Me and

122
00:06:25.120 --> 00:06:29.360
my buddy Bruce. After school in the evening, we decided

123
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:32.319
to go down to the Merrimack River and we took

124
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:35.639
old Route sixty six to get there. We got off

125
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:38.560
on a road called I think it's called Highway KK,

126
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:42.519
and we were driving down that highway. It was getting late.

127
00:06:43.319 --> 00:06:45.639
The was still out, but it was almost dark time.

128
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.959
And as we crossed the train tracks went around a

129
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:53.040
few curves, We're going down the steep hill and all

130
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.079
of a sudden, my buddy Bruce sees this possum crossing

131
00:06:56.079 --> 00:06:58.720
the road, and it's a pretty big possum, so he

132
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:01.120
decides to step on the game. And we're going, like,

133
00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:04.079
you know, seventy eighty miles an hour on the state highway,

134
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.759
and as we're getting close to the possum, you can

135
00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:11.920
see the headlights lighting up the creature, the critter, and

136
00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.639
then all of a sudden, this canine creature dives out

137
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:18.879
of the woods and then into the middle of the highway,

138
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:22.199
snatches up this possum, throws it up in the air,

139
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:25.639
and then shakes it around like a rag doll, and

140
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:28.839
then tears back off into the woods. The creature was

141
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:32.040
like a gray color, similar to a blue pit Its

142
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:34.639
head was the shape of like a giant pit bull,

143
00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:37.800
but the snout was more like a hyena or like

144
00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:41.480
a wolf, and had these pointy ears that were probably

145
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:45.920
like anywhere from three to five inches long, and the

146
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:50.160
hair on its body was really short, but the fur

147
00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:54.519
hair around its neck was really long, similar to a lion.

148
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:56.959
And this thing was built like a lion, honestly, like

149
00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:00.439
it was that big, had a huge chest and long

150
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:03.920
front arms, and the back legs were smaller than the

151
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:06.759
front legs. It was more like, I don't know, like

152
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:09.240
a chihuah or something. As far as like the back legs,

153
00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:12.480
it's really hard to describe. I never seen this creature

154
00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:15.279
get up on two legs. It was on all fours

155
00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:18.439
the whole time, but people referred to them as like

156
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:20.800
hell hounds. I don't know if it was a dog man.

157
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:23.279
Some people say dog men start off on all fours

158
00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:25.399
and later on in life they're able to stand up

159
00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:30.920
and walk. But after we passed the scene where the

160
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.840
creature came out, and my buddy slows down, hits the brakes,

161
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:36.720
and he goes, WHOA, did you see that? And I

162
00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:40.399
said yeah. We were both just kind of shocked, and

163
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:43.559
we didn't really say much after we encountered that creature,

164
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:46.480
and we just kind of kept driving in silence. And

165
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:49.840
it was years later. I asked my friend Bruce, I

166
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:51.879
I hadn't seen him in a long time. Do you

167
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:54.480
remember that canine creature that we seen on Highway KK?

168
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:59.080
And he said no, And that blew my mind, because, like,

169
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:02.279
I don't know, when you see something like that, you

170
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:04.759
should never forget it. And I don't know if he

171
00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:07.559
was just gaslighting me or if he really didn't remember,

172
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:10.879
but the incident did happen close to the Merrimack River

173
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:14.279
and Highway KK leads to a road called Riverside Road,

174
00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:19.240
and I've had sasquatch experiences in that area.

175
00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:23.200
That is that is intense, dude. I mean, so I

176
00:09:23.240 --> 00:09:25.600
don't get a lot into the dog band thing. I

177
00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:28.919
primarily stick with bigfoot, but every once in a while,

178
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:32.480
some dog band stuff does sneak through. And I believe

179
00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:35.759
I'm not super familiar with the Merrimack River area, but

180
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:39.039
that's down isn't near Mark Twain and Saint Louis down

181
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:39.919
there in that corner.

182
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:45.799
It's more of a central Missouri. I mean, it's probably

183
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.519
twenty thirty minutes away from the Mark Twain National Forest.

184
00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:52.279
But the reason I mentioned these encounters is because years

185
00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:56.399
later I have Bigfoot experiences in these exact same areas,

186
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:58.480
So I kind of feel like it's tied in together.

187
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:01.720
I'm not really sure because I've never seen them together

188
00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:03.720
at the same time, but like I said, with the

189
00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:07.039
first experience where it howled and then something screamed like

190
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.039
a woman, I had the feeling that it was bigfoot

191
00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:13.120
along with the canine creature. And then where I seen

192
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:15.639
this what people would call hellhound jump out into the

193
00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:19.639
middle of the highway. That's pretty much a mile away

194
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:22.679
or less where I have these intense experiences.

195
00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:28.039
Later on, you have this intense sighting of a hell

196
00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:31.679
hound or a dog man, whatever creature it is, does

197
00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:34.679
that set you then on this path to figuring out

198
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:37.519
what it is we have out there?

199
00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:41.720
No, not at all, because after I seen that canine creature,

200
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:44.639
I just kind of thought maybe somebody's like giant chow

201
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:49.519
mixed with like another giant dog, and then it grew

202
00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:52.480
up to be wild, you know, something like kujo. But

203
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:54.440
I don't know. I just didn't really think cryptid. I

204
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:57.320
didn't know what cryptids were at that time, and I

205
00:10:57.320 --> 00:11:01.320
didn't think that existed or was a real thing. But

206
00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:05.799
basically later on after that, I was probably about twenty

207
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:09.960
three twenty four years old, me and my girlfriend at

208
00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:12.879
the time, we went camping at the Merrimack River, and like,

209
00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:15.639
where are we seeing this hell hound? That's where this

210
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.440
area is. Like you get on Highway KK, you go

211
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:21.840
on Riverside Road takes you along the Merrimack River. That's

212
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:24.840
where I was camping. So me and my girlfriend at

213
00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:27.399
the time we go down there and camp and we're

214
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:29.480
having a good time. There's a lot of floaters going

215
00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:33.519
down the river. It's probably about June or July, and

216
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:36.399
it was a really nice day. We had been watching

217
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:38.679
the show Finding Bigfoot, and we were talking about the

218
00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:41.679
Missouri encounters, and I asked her, you know, do you

219
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:46.720
think Bigfoot really exists in Missouri? And you know, we

220
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:48.919
were just kind of just talking back and forth about

221
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:51.559
it because we had been watching the show. After we'd

222
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:55.080
get off work and I decided to go to my vehicle,

223
00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:57.600
pull up this Nike baseball bat, and I did a

224
00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:00.000
few wood knocks on the maple trees along the river,

225
00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:03.559
and there were loud knocks, like you know, it sounded solid.

226
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:07.000
And I did a few loud whoops like I heard

227
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:10.919
on the show Finding Finding Bigfoot, and even her son

228
00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:14.200
he was doing whoops. And we were just out there

229
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:17.360
kind of joking about the subject. All of a sudden,

230
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:20.600
we hear this giant tree come crashing down across the river,

231
00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:22.679
and I mean you could hear like a bunch of

232
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:26.399
limbs and lyne snapping, and whenever this giant tree hit

233
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:29.360
the ground, you could feel the boom. And everything just

234
00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:33.480
got quiet after that. So we all we looked at

235
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:35.679
each other like, what the heck did you hear that?

236
00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:38.000
And we didn't really know what it was. It was

237
00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:40.000
just kind of strange that that happened after we did

238
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:41.919
the wood knock, so we didn't really think too much

239
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:44.879
of it. And later on that evening, all the floaters

240
00:12:44.919 --> 00:12:47.840
passed by and the river got really quiet, and we

241
00:12:47.840 --> 00:12:49.799
were the only ones on the river at that point,

242
00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:52.720
and she ended up putting her son to bed early,

243
00:12:53.159 --> 00:12:56.039
and we had a campfire going on, and we were

244
00:12:56.080 --> 00:12:59.879
sitting there talking about Bigfoot once again, and how crazy

245
00:12:59.879 --> 00:13:02.159
it was that a tree came crashing down. We never

246
00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:04.720
said it was Bigfoot, We never referred to that. We

247
00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:07.840
just thought that was unusual, Okay, it's kind of weird.

248
00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:12.759
And as we're sitting there talking, it's completely dark outside,

249
00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:15.279
we got the fire going, and on our side of

250
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:19.240
the river behind us, something screams super loud. I mean,

251
00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:22.639
it sounds like a metal screamer like the vocalists from

252
00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:25.240
Azale Dying or All That Remains if you ever heard

253
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:29.240
those bands, and it sounded similar to what I heard

254
00:13:29.320 --> 00:13:32.440
whenever I heard that dog man howl. And then after

255
00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:34.919
the how how I heard that scream? That scream like

256
00:13:34.960 --> 00:13:37.159
a woman. It was very similar to that, but a

257
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:41.360
lot more powerful. It was the same velocity, like the

258
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:46.000
same level, but just a lot I wouldn't say deeper,

259
00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:48.759
but it just sounded more intense. This is the best

260
00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:51.720
way I can say it. But the vocalization lasted anywhere

261
00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:55.440
from five to eight seconds, and it was probably about

262
00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:59.399
nine feet off the ground, maybe even higher. But on

263
00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:03.159
that river bottom, it's really flat, like there's a good

264
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:06.440
distance behind us where it's completely flat, So there's a

265
00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:09.440
big bluff and it starts to gradually go up. But

266
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:12.159
the girlfriend at the time, she looks at me and

267
00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:15.320
she says, grab your gun. Grab your gun. And I

268
00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:19.559
didn't go for my pistol because I felt like, whatever

269
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:22.879
this thing was, or whatever it is, it's gonna come

270
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:25.360
and tear us apart if I grab that pistol. And

271
00:14:25.399 --> 00:14:27.240
it was just a feeling that I got. I mean,

272
00:14:27.279 --> 00:14:29.399
I don't know if that would have happened, but I

273
00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:31.600
felt like if I would have went for my glock nineteen,

274
00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:34.320
this thing would have came into camp and tore us apart.

275
00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:39.240
But she was pretty terrified. I was more dumbfounded, like

276
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:43.480
in shock. I honestly had this little smirk this crap

277
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:47.320
eating grin on my face because I couldn't believe that

278
00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:51.759
that just took place, and we ended up going inside

279
00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:54.279
the tent. We didn't really talk about it much, and

280
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:57.320
nothing else happened that night. We woke up the next morning,

281
00:14:57.440 --> 00:15:01.039
everything was all right. We were still alive, and it's

282
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:05.440
just something that we talked about ever since. And at

283
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:07.919
this point, I still don't think it's bigfoot. Like whenever

284
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:10.879
it happened, in my mind, I was like, that's bigfoot.

285
00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:13.600
But after you hear something like that without seeing that,

286
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.679
your mind shifts back to reality. Like maybe it was

287
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:18.720
a mountain lion that climbed up into the tree about

288
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:21.720
nine feet and screamed at us. You know, maybe it

289
00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:24.440
was whatever. But I don't know. I just kind of

290
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:26.679
went back and forth and just kind of shook my

291
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:29.720
head and disbelieved because I couldn't figure it out. Later on,

292
00:15:29.879 --> 00:15:33.480
after that we were back in my house. This is

293
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:36.840
probably months later, and I mean a lot of what

294
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:38.639
I'm going to tell you guys, after this, I kind

295
00:15:38.639 --> 00:15:41.480
of feel like these creatures followed me, they tagged me,

296
00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:44.679
and it's just kind of hard to believe that I've

297
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:48.480
had these this amount of encounters and experiences. But everything

298
00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:51.440
I'm telling you is the truth. So I'm back in

299
00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:54.159
my house and I was thinking about the river incident

300
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:56.879
where I did the woodknox and did the whoop and

301
00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:03.120
got reaction. And on my back deck after work one

302
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:06.639
day and it was getting late in the evening, and

303
00:16:06.720 --> 00:16:08.519
I did that same whoop that I did on the

304
00:16:08.519 --> 00:16:12.879
Merrimack River, just a loud whoop, and a few seconds

305
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:15.799
after that, you can hear something crashing through the woods.

306
00:16:16.000 --> 00:16:19.919
It sounds like somebody is driving a bulldozer through the woods,

307
00:16:20.039 --> 00:16:22.639
or like someone put an S ten pickup truck in

308
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:25.200
neutral and just let it roll down the hill and

309
00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:28.519
it's just like tearing through branches. Well, this thing's like

310
00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:32.320
zigzagging towards me from the woods. And I'm on my deck.

311
00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:36.519
There's like a backyard that's probably an acre long. And

312
00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:39.960
I go back inside and I tell my ex, like, hey,

313
00:16:40.159 --> 00:16:43.039
something's out there, like something's coming through the woods. She

314
00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:45.080
comes out, she's standing on the deck. She can hear

315
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:47.080
it too. This thing's crashing through the woods. You can

316
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:51.519
hear saplings just snapping like toothpicks, and all of a sudden,

317
00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:54.080
like it stops at the edge of the woodline. By

318
00:16:54.120 --> 00:16:57.919
this point, it's almost completely dark outside. There's still some light,

319
00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:00.200
but whatever it is, it just stops at the edge

320
00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:06.519
of the woodline and everything's silent. But I don't know

321
00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:08.519
what it was. At the time, I didn't know what

322
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:10.799
it was, but I mean, now I know it's bigfoot,

323
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:14.160
and it blew my mind, honestly. There was a few

324
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:16.440
incidents there at the house that I was living in

325
00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:19.480
where something would come up to the window and tap

326
00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:21.960
on the glass next to my computer desk, and you

327
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:24.240
just hear tap, tap, tap, and it kind of sounded

328
00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:27.119
like nails clicking on the window. That happened about two

329
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:30.119
or three times, and the last time it happened, I

330
00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:33.079
grabbed my clock and I immediately ran outside the front

331
00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:35.039
door and ran around the house and there was just

332
00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:39.599
nothing there. But there was a lot of stuff that

333
00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:43.240
happened in that house, a lot of paranormal activity. One time,

334
00:17:43.319 --> 00:17:45.160
I was standing out there and I was staring at

335
00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:47.640
the stars, and I thought I was looking at like

336
00:17:47.759 --> 00:17:50.400
Venus or Mars, because it was like this bright orange

337
00:17:50.440 --> 00:17:53.599
red color, and all of a sudden, that star just

338
00:17:53.599 --> 00:17:56.039
gets like closer and closer, and it's like the size

339
00:17:56.079 --> 00:18:00.480
of the basketball and it starts moving around the house

340
00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:04.400
and I can get my ex girlfriend again. I tell

341
00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:06.880
her to come out there. She's looking at it with me,

342
00:18:06.960 --> 00:18:09.640
and this thing starts changing colors. It kind of looks

343
00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:12.480
like an ambulance light or like a disco ball, and

344
00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:15.480
it's like radiating different colors. All of a sudden, it

345
00:18:15.559 --> 00:18:18.640
shoots off, like at a nine degree angle into space,

346
00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:22.519
and like it was so fast. I can't even tell

347
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:25.200
you like how fast it was because it looked like

348
00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:27.680
it just got sucked up by like a vacuum cleaner.

349
00:18:28.240 --> 00:18:32.920
But the strange part about it is that I was

350
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:36.799
having cryptid experiences out there, paring all the things happening

351
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:40.279
and like strange UFO stuff all at the same time.

352
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:42.960
So I can't really says if it's all related or

353
00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:46.359
if I just kind of got lucky more, you know,

354
00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:50.440
I kind of considered it a curse. But after that,

355
00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:54.680
let's see what else happened. Okay, So it was a

356
00:18:54.680 --> 00:18:58.759
few years after that, and I wasn't living at that

357
00:18:58.839 --> 00:19:02.839
place anymore. Me and that girl completely split up, and

358
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:07.039
I was working at a different job at the time.

359
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:10.559
I started working at a meat processing plant at the time,

360
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:12.880
just to make some money while I was in between jobs,

361
00:19:13.039 --> 00:19:15.880
and that day I talked to the owner of the

362
00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:17.799
business and I was asking him, Hey, you know, I'm

363
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:20.799
wanting to get into public land hunting. Do you know

364
00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:22.960
any good areas that I can go bohunt? So he

365
00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:25.680
described this area that's covered in deer. He said, if

366
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:29.119
you don't go there and see thirty deer, then you've

367
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:31.960
done something wrong. So I asked him, Okay, tell me

368
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.480
where it's at, give me some directions, and he was

369
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:37.319
kind enough to show me where this area was at,

370
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:40.240
and he wrote down on a napkin like the road

371
00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:44.000
where to go down, and just kind of gave me

372
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:46.920
the directions. So that day after work, it was a Friday.

373
00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:50.759
It was September fourteenth. I can't remember the year right now,

374
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:55.799
I think like twenty eighteen or nineteen twenty eighteen. And

375
00:19:56.000 --> 00:20:00.880
I head down there after work and I'm driving my

376
00:20:01.640 --> 00:20:05.599
Mustang whenever I get to the end of this dead

377
00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:08.839
end road on the back side of this state land,

378
00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:12.079
and it's pretty close to Merrimack Springs. So if anyone

379
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:15.200
listening is curious to where this encounter took place, it's

380
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:17.799
pretty close to that area. But anyways, I get out

381
00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:20.880
of my car, I shut the door. I go to

382
00:20:20.920 --> 00:20:23.799
the edge of the cliff. The cliff overlooks the entire

383
00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:26.799
state park and the Merrimack River is right down below.

384
00:20:27.400 --> 00:20:30.319
But whenever I turn around and walk back to my car,

385
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:36.599
I see this creature on all fours scurry behind a tree,

386
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:40.519
and it looked like a chimpanzee, honestly, like moving on

387
00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:43.720
all fours. But at the time, I thought, is that

388
00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:47.359
a group of turkeys? Maybe that's a black bear, or

389
00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:50.400
maybe it's a hog. There are hogs out here. But

390
00:20:51.319 --> 00:20:55.200
whenever I last saw the creature, it was upright and

391
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:58.480
it slowly hid behind the tree, and all I saw

392
00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:01.799
was like this jet black creature and you could see

393
00:21:01.839 --> 00:21:05.440
like this furry arm slowly hide behind the tree. Well,

394
00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:08.400
whenever it hid behind the tree, I never saw it again.

395
00:21:08.519 --> 00:21:11.160
I just kept my eyes fixed on that oak tree

396
00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:14.319
and then just nothing ever happened. So I just thought, Okay,

397
00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:18.200
that was weird. I just couldn't figure out exactly what

398
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:21.440
had happened or what it was, So that kind of

399
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:24.480
left me with a lot of questions. And I walked

400
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:26.839
out of that area thinking I saw a black bear,

401
00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:29.920
because I'd never seen a black bear before at that time,

402
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:34.400
and that's the only thing that my brain could rationalize.

403
00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:42.119
So the next set of encounters take place where I

404
00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:45.759
love at now. And like I said before, I feel

405
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:49.880
like these things have followed me around to different areas. Okay,

406
00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:56.960
So I'm going to the grocery store one day, and

407
00:21:57.039 --> 00:22:00.240
as I'm coming back home, I stopped my Mustang at

408
00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:02.799
the top of the dryway because I was like, oh,

409
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:05.319
I might check my trail camera. I don't want to

410
00:22:05.319 --> 00:22:06.960
have to walk all the way back up here. Might

411
00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:08.559
as well check it right now. So I got out

412
00:22:08.599 --> 00:22:11.400
of my car and I walked down to my trail camera,

413
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:14.519
grabbed the SD card, and walked back up to my vehicle.

414
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:18.480
As I'm just I'm standing there and just watching the

415
00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:22.200
woods and messing around on my phone, and all of

416
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:24.960
a sudden, I hear this loud, sharp whistle to my left,

417
00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:28.480
and it sounds like a like a cattle rancher, like

418
00:22:28.759 --> 00:22:31.920
calling his dogs or you know, trying to get the

419
00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:35.119
animals back in, just a loud, sharp whistle. And then

420
00:22:35.160 --> 00:22:37.599
a few seconds later, right in front of me, about

421
00:22:37.599 --> 00:22:41.000
thirty or forty yards into the woods, I hear another whistle,

422
00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:44.200
but this whistle sounds like the first one, but it's

423
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:47.200
dual tone, so like there's that high pitch sound and

424
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:51.240
like this low whistle along with it, and then a

425
00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:54.960
few seconds after that, to my right, I hear another whistle.

426
00:22:55.039 --> 00:23:00.200
So whatever, it is kind of triangulater around me. I

427
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:02.960
mean again, I can't my brain isn't going to bigfoot,

428
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:05.680
like part of me thinks, you know, what, if it's sasquatch,

429
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:08.240
I've never seen one. I don't really know if they exist.

430
00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:12.400
But I'm just trying to figure out where it is,

431
00:23:12.440 --> 00:23:15.839
and I'm thinking, maybe it's trespassers, it's poachers, there's people

432
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:18.680
watching me in the woods, and I just wanted to

433
00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:20.480
figure out who was out there, so I kind of

434
00:23:20.559 --> 00:23:22.920
kept going out into the woods ever since that incident.

435
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:26.279
It was after the whistle, I went back home and

436
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:28.519
thought about it a lot, and I just kept wondering.

437
00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:30.640
So I went back up there about an hour later,

438
00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:34.160
and it was just about dark time whenever I got

439
00:23:34.200 --> 00:23:36.680
back up on top of the driveway, and I seen

440
00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:40.759
these two orange orbs floating through the woods, and in

441
00:23:40.799 --> 00:23:44.160
my mind, I thought, maybe that's people walking with cell

442
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:46.680
phones in their hands so they can see, or maybe

443
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:49.640
they have lanterns, because that's kind of what it looked like.

444
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:52.359
It looked like two people out there with lanterns. But

445
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:54.960
I just got this, I don't know, like this dark

446
00:23:55.000 --> 00:23:57.880
feeling that told me don't go near them. And I

447
00:23:57.920 --> 00:24:00.599
didn't because whatever it was kind of freaked me out.

448
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:04.319
I didn't know what I had just witnessed. I mean, honestly,

449
00:24:04.359 --> 00:24:07.480
it was hard to say, but there, I did see

450
00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:09.440
him pretty close, and they were like a little bit

451
00:24:09.480 --> 00:24:13.240
smaller than a basketball, and they're like in orange yellow color.

452
00:24:14.759 --> 00:24:17.440
But after that, I walked back home and at this

453
00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:20.680
point it's completely dark. So I'm walking back home, it's

454
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:23.759
completely dark. I'm going down this gravel road, and when

455
00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:26.160
I get halfway down the driveway, I hear this loud

456
00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:30.839
thumb just it sounded like a big buck just jumped up,

457
00:24:31.440 --> 00:24:35.359
but I never heard it run off. So like after

458
00:24:35.400 --> 00:24:37.440
I heard that, the hairs on the back of my

459
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:40.960
neck completely stood up, like I had this electrifying feeling

460
00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:45.000
that overtook my body and it was feared. And then

461
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:49.839
all of a sudden, I hear these three loops just woo,

462
00:24:50.440 --> 00:24:52.759
and it sounds like something's coming at me, like on

463
00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:56.079
all fours, and I just kind of stand my ground

464
00:24:56.319 --> 00:24:59.599
and it stops whatever it is, and I could feel

465
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:01.680
that some something was there, it was just too dark

466
00:25:01.720 --> 00:25:05.240
to tell. So at this point I'm really like questioning things,

467
00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:07.440
like what the heck's going on. I start watching a

468
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:10.799
lot of shows and I heard that bigfoot will whistle

469
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:13.440
at you. I was listening to this lady in the

470
00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:15.799
Hemalayan Mountains. She claims that she got picked up by

471
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:18.559
a bigfoot whenever she woke up, because I guess she

472
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:21.200
passed out. She said she was looking at a bigfoot

473
00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:23.599
and whistled at her. So I was like, whoa, these

474
00:25:23.640 --> 00:25:27.440
things do whistle. So that really got me into the subject,

475
00:25:27.519 --> 00:25:29.839
and I really kept going out there after that. I

476
00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:33.640
kept exploring that forest and all around my land. Well,

477
00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:37.039
one day I went out there. It was probably June

478
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:41.640
twenty nineteen, in the middle of the summer, and I

479
00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:45.480
was looking for chantrell mushrooms at the time and just

480
00:25:45.559 --> 00:25:49.720
kind of seeking answers as to what I had experienced previously.

481
00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:54.240
So I'm picking mushrooms one day and I'm kind of

482
00:25:54.400 --> 00:25:58.359
zigzagging through the woods going to different patches, and I

483
00:25:58.440 --> 00:26:01.960
had this camouflage backpack filling them up with shantrail mushrooms.

484
00:26:02.599 --> 00:26:07.119
As I'm making my way back home, I am walking

485
00:26:07.160 --> 00:26:09.680
down that same driveway where I had the whistles, seeing

486
00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:13.640
the orbs, heard the thump, and heard the whoops. I'm

487
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:16.359
walking back. I'm almost to my driveway. I can start

488
00:26:16.359 --> 00:26:20.119
to see my Mustang and I hear this little shuffling

489
00:26:20.160 --> 00:26:22.440
noise in the leaves. So I look over to my

490
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:26.599
left and I don't see anything. There's this black shape

491
00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:28.960
and I'm like, oh, okay, that's a stump. It must

492
00:26:29.000 --> 00:26:30.799
have been like a squirrel or like a robin in

493
00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:33.200
the woods, because that's how loud it was. It wasn't

494
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:36.519
very loud, It's just something caught my attention. So I

495
00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:39.599
take another three steps and I hear that same sound again.

496
00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:42.240
So I look back over, and when I do, this

497
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:47.160
creature stands up and starts walking off in the woods.

498
00:26:47.759 --> 00:26:54.119
The creature looked similar to the Patterson Gimblin footage as

499
00:26:54.160 --> 00:26:56.599
far as how it walked and how it looked at me,

500
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:01.039
but it looked different, like it had the same facial features,

501
00:27:01.079 --> 00:27:03.720
but it was a completely different look. This creature was

502
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:06.400
probably anywhere from six and a half to eight feet tall.

503
00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:11.039
It had a round head, had these black almond shaped

504
00:27:11.079 --> 00:27:14.440
eyes that would pierce through your soul. I mean, it

505
00:27:14.920 --> 00:27:17.119
looked mean. You wouldn't want to mess with this creature.

506
00:27:17.160 --> 00:27:20.759
It had this flat nose, long thin lips, and its

507
00:27:20.799 --> 00:27:22.799
skin like I don't know how to explain it, but

508
00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:25.720
this thing looked ancient. You know if you when you

509
00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:29.720
look at like old Native American photos, how wrinkly their

510
00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:33.119
skin is and leathery like, That's what it looked like.

511
00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:38.440
And like the color of the creature was black like

512
00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:41.400
you think you've seen like a black creature as far

513
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:45.200
as like looking at someone's jet black housecat or whatever,

514
00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:49.359
like a chimpanzee. These creatures are way darker. Like when

515
00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:52.039
I say jet black, it's jet black, like ink black.

516
00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:55.640
And it was really broad at the shoulders, had like

517
00:27:55.680 --> 00:28:00.680
a big chest, and had these whitish gray stripes going

518
00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:03.519
down its back from its shoulder blade right above its butt,

519
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:05.839
and it had two of them, and it kind of

520
00:28:05.880 --> 00:28:09.240
reminded me of like a skunk or a lemur. Well,

521
00:28:09.319 --> 00:28:13.160
as I'm standing there in shock, this creature like looks

522
00:28:13.200 --> 00:28:16.119
over at me a few times and glances over its shoulder.

523
00:28:16.440 --> 00:28:18.400
I guess to see if I got a gun or

524
00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:21.799
a camera or something. I'm not sure, but it looked

525
00:28:21.839 --> 00:28:25.799
over at me about two or three times, and I

526
00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:28.480
got to see it for a good five to eight seconds,

527
00:28:28.839 --> 00:28:31.480
and then it walked off and disappeared into the cedar

528
00:28:31.519 --> 00:28:34.480
and oak trees. So at that point, I snapped back

529
00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:38.240
into reality and I take off running. I'm taking off

530
00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:41.400
running back towards my driveway. I cut through the yard

531
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:46.319
and I head towards where this creature had gone. I'm

532
00:28:46.319 --> 00:28:47.880
trying to cut it off so I can see it

533
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:51.559
again because I couldn't believe what I had just experienced.

534
00:28:51.720 --> 00:28:54.119
And I get back into the woods. I step over

535
00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:56.759
the barbed wire fence and I take a few steps

536
00:28:56.759 --> 00:28:59.920
into the woods, and all of a sudden, I hear

537
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:07.440
this huffing sound like oh, and I just get this

538
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:12.079
dark feeling that I don't know. It takes over and

539
00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:16.240
I know that what I just heard is the same

540
00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:19.119
creature that I encountered, and there was no way I

541
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:21.640
was going to take another step closer into the woods. Well,

542
00:29:21.640 --> 00:29:24.400
a lot of people who have heard me talk about

543
00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:26.799
this huffing sound say, oh, that's just a white tail deer.

544
00:29:26.839 --> 00:29:29.599
They're blowing at you. But I tell you, like I've

545
00:29:29.640 --> 00:29:32.799
grown up in Missouri since I was a little bitty kid,

546
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:36.000
and I've jumped so many white tails in my life.

547
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:38.160
I've hunted so many times. I know what they sound

548
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:40.880
like when you spook them. Like this was different. This

549
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:44.240
was like a horse, like you could tell it had

550
00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:46.519
a bigger set of lungs. And not to mention, I

551
00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:49.880
just encountered the creature. I just saw it. So that's

552
00:29:49.920 --> 00:29:52.440
what it was, because that's the exact direction it was heading.

553
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:55.240
It was going towards the creek bottom. After it stood

554
00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:57.880
up and I encountered it, and I just didn't want

555
00:29:57.880 --> 00:29:59.519
to go in the woods. I got this feeling that

556
00:29:59.559 --> 00:30:01.519
if I go in there, I'm not coming back out alive.

557
00:30:02.599 --> 00:30:05.359
So I walked back up to the house. I'm shaking

558
00:30:05.359 --> 00:30:08.960
my head. I can't believe it, Like these creatures exist,

559
00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:13.519
Like everything everyone has been saying is true. Like I

560
00:30:13.559 --> 00:30:15.599
thought all those people were crazy, all the people that

561
00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:18.839
said all bigfoots out there, you know, the people that

562
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:22.119
shared their experiences in the past. I didn't think they're

563
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:24.160
all crazy. I mean, part of me wanted to believe,

564
00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:27.440
that's why I was into it, but I'd always you know,

565
00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:30.519
snapped back to reality, like they don't exist. It's a

566
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:33.200
cool story, but they don't exist. I never ridiculed anyone,

567
00:30:33.319 --> 00:30:36.640
and I wanted to believe like they sounded sincere. When

568
00:30:36.640 --> 00:30:38.960
I'd listen to people in Sasquatch chronicles, I'm like, man,

569
00:30:39.960 --> 00:30:42.160
you know all these people telling stories, they must be

570
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:44.920
telling the truth. There's so many people out there, but

571
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:47.559
without actually seeing one, it's really hard to confirm that

572
00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:51.720
for yourself. So basically, I just kept researching the topic.

573
00:30:51.839 --> 00:30:56.319
I really was interested in the subject now, and I

574
00:30:56.400 --> 00:30:58.160
was just trying to watch all these shows to figure

575
00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:00.880
out what they did, and I wanted to get one

576
00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:02.920
on camera. So after that, I kept going out with

577
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:07.440
my my camcorder and I was determined to film one

578
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:10.279
of these things. And I did that every day for

579
00:31:10.359 --> 00:31:12.279
like a week. I mean I would be out there

580
00:31:12.319 --> 00:31:15.759
for hours and hours and just not much would happened.

581
00:31:15.799 --> 00:31:18.039
Like I didn't really hear any woodknocks. I'd go out

582
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:21.359
there and just not see anything. I'd find little things,

583
00:31:21.519 --> 00:31:24.319
you know, strange things like they'd leave feathers in the

584
00:31:24.319 --> 00:31:27.680
middle of the road, or like they'd put mushrooms like

585
00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:30.359
on my chair or on like this area where I'd

586
00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:32.240
had my phone before. I'd go and walk in the

587
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:34.599
woods because I'd wear gym shorts whenever I was out there,

588
00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:36.559
whenever I had things in my pockets, like a way

589
00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:38.960
down my short so I'd always put my stuff, like

590
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:42.240
behind this old fence post that lay on the side

591
00:31:42.279 --> 00:31:44.440
of the gravel road, and I just put it there,

592
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:46.559
like I'd come back and there'd be like a mushroom

593
00:31:46.599 --> 00:31:48.920
sitting there. I thought maybe that thing fell out of

594
00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:51.319
a tree. Like there was never a definite answer, like, oh,

595
00:31:51.400 --> 00:31:54.240
that was bigfoot for sure, that did that. Like obviously

596
00:31:54.240 --> 00:31:56.279
I didn't know because I didn't see them do that,

597
00:31:56.680 --> 00:31:58.680
but it was odd to things that I would find.

598
00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:02.079
So time passed on. It was probably about three weeks

599
00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:04.559
after that encounter with the jet black sasquatch with the

600
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:09.359
white stripes, and kind of gave up, like I kind

601
00:32:09.359 --> 00:32:11.079
of lost hope, like I'm never gonna see one of

602
00:32:11.119 --> 00:32:13.039
these things again, Like how many people go back out

603
00:32:13.079 --> 00:32:15.720
there and then see another bigfoot like McGough and that's

604
00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:20.759
not gonna happen. But I kept walking the driveway because

605
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:24.960
at that time I had skyattica in my right leg,

606
00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:27.000
and I don't know, I guess I had like a

607
00:32:27.039 --> 00:32:29.920
few herniated disk in my back and pain shot down

608
00:32:29.960 --> 00:32:33.039
to like my toes. So like, the only relief that

609
00:32:33.119 --> 00:32:38.400
I found other than like laying down, was walking, because

610
00:32:38.480 --> 00:32:41.119
like driving in a car and it just felt brutal.

611
00:32:41.160 --> 00:32:43.400
It felt like somebody was stabbing me in the back.

612
00:32:44.039 --> 00:32:46.960
And laying down would I mean, honestly be brutal as well,

613
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:49.519
because the pain that shot through my leg was so intense.

614
00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:52.359
So the only relief I found was walking around, and

615
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:54.599
that just seemed to be the only thing that wouldn't

616
00:32:54.599 --> 00:32:57.480
make me feel a little bit better. But yeah, it

617
00:32:57.519 --> 00:32:59.960
was three weeks after I encountered that jet black Sasquatch,

618
00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:02.359
which I was walking up the driveway. I left my

619
00:33:02.440 --> 00:33:05.039
phone behind my camp order and I was just in

620
00:33:05.039 --> 00:33:06.880
a bad mood that day. I was like, you know what,

621
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:10.440
screw all this, like not bringing any of the stuff

622
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:12.599
out there. I'm just gonna go for a walk and

623
00:33:12.680 --> 00:33:15.599
pull down. So I got to the top of the

624
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:18.759
driveway where I heard the whistles, seeing the orbs, and

625
00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:21.319
it's a big circle driveway. So I'm on the other

626
00:33:21.400 --> 00:33:24.799
side of the driveway, walking on the opposite side, and

627
00:33:25.079 --> 00:33:28.640
I see no, let me back up. I'm walking down

628
00:33:28.680 --> 00:33:31.759
the driveway. I'm still walking like in quiet mode, like

629
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:33.640
kind of like when you're hunting, you take like these

630
00:33:33.720 --> 00:33:36.440
quiet steps. That's what I would do after I had

631
00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:38.640
these encounters, just because I was trying to sneak up

632
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:42.759
on anything if it was out there. Well, whenever I

633
00:33:42.839 --> 00:33:47.960
was walking, my foot like hit a piece of gravel

634
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:51.039
and made this sound like. And then all of a sudden,

635
00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:53.519
I see something black moving through the woods and it's

636
00:33:53.519 --> 00:33:56.119
on all fours. It looks like a chimpanzee. Remember that

637
00:33:56.240 --> 00:33:59.480
encounter that I told you by Merrimac Springs. Whenever I

638
00:33:59.519 --> 00:34:01.559
was on that and I walked back to my car,

639
00:34:01.880 --> 00:34:04.680
the same thing happened again. I see this creature on

640
00:34:04.720 --> 00:34:07.839
all fours, Yeah, on all fours, and it's scurrying through

641
00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:09.920
the woods, and then it gets up behind an oak

642
00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:13.880
tree and hides really slow, like in slow motion. So

643
00:34:13.960 --> 00:34:16.519
at this point I just see half its body. Can't

644
00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:18.639
see the head. I just see like the shape of

645
00:34:18.679 --> 00:34:21.320
the arm and part of the body slowly hide behind

646
00:34:21.320 --> 00:34:24.760
the tree in slow motion. And I thought, man, what

647
00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:27.440
the heck was that? Was that turkey's or a hog

648
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:29.800
or a bear? The same thoughts that went through my

649
00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:33.760
mind before years prior are going through my mind again.

650
00:34:34.400 --> 00:34:36.679
And then hid behind the tree, and I thought, heang,

651
00:34:36.760 --> 00:34:39.880
whatever that is, it's gone. And it's the same thing

652
00:34:39.920 --> 00:34:41.840
that I had seen. So I was just kind of

653
00:34:41.840 --> 00:34:44.239
standing there looking at that oak tree, and then this

654
00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:47.719
time this creature pops out behind the tree and he's

655
00:34:47.719 --> 00:34:50.480
looking to its left and I'm to its right, and

656
00:34:50.639 --> 00:34:53.159
he's just sitting there, and my mind is blown, like

657
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:56.679
I cannot believe what I'm looking at. This creature is

658
00:34:56.719 --> 00:35:01.000
a juvenile sasquatch. It's jet black. It's probably about I

659
00:35:01.039 --> 00:35:03.079
don't know, I would say like four four and a

660
00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:08.079
half feet tall. And this one looks completely different than

661
00:35:08.079 --> 00:35:10.840
the one I had seen prior to This doesn't look

662
00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:14.360
anything like it. It has like these big round eyes

663
00:35:14.400 --> 00:35:17.039
about the diameter of a coke can, and you can

664
00:35:17.119 --> 00:35:19.480
see a lot of the white in the eyes, and

665
00:35:19.800 --> 00:35:22.760
had like for the pupil, it was like these black pupils,

666
00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:24.480
so there's a lot of white that you can see

667
00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:27.840
and these little bitty pupils. But anyways, the shape of

668
00:35:27.880 --> 00:35:32.159
its head was unusual, like it's hard to describe. It

669
00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:35.559
had this giant, conical shaped head and I would say

670
00:35:35.639 --> 00:35:40.320
it stuck up I don't know, like about a foot

671
00:35:40.480 --> 00:35:43.039
foot and a half above the brow ridge. It's hard

672
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:47.159
to believe, but that's the reality. This thing had a

673
00:35:47.199 --> 00:35:51.880
giant brain. And as I'm staring at this creature, it

674
00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:55.360
has no idea that I'm standing there, and I'm leaning.

675
00:35:56.000 --> 00:35:58.360
I got my right hand on my right leg and

676
00:35:58.400 --> 00:36:00.719
I'm kind of leaning to the side to try to

677
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:04.719
get a better view of this creature, and it just

678
00:36:04.760 --> 00:36:07.519
has no idea that I'm standing there. The wind kind

679
00:36:07.559 --> 00:36:09.480
of starts to pick up. It blows a little bit,

680
00:36:09.519 --> 00:36:12.119
and I could see the hair follicles blowing back and forth.

681
00:36:12.119 --> 00:36:14.480
Almost if you had like a blow dryer on low

682
00:36:15.480 --> 00:36:17.400
and it was blowing your hair around. That's what it

683
00:36:17.480 --> 00:36:20.719
was like. And I don't know how to describe it,

684
00:36:20.760 --> 00:36:25.119
but I don't know. Like the hair kind of tapered

685
00:36:25.280 --> 00:36:28.480
up on its head, but on the arms it tapered

686
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:31.039
down like a Christmas tree. That's the best way I

687
00:36:31.039 --> 00:36:35.159
can describe it. You couldn't see like the nose, and

688
00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:37.719
because like the face was covered in hair, Like the

689
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:39.360
whole thing was covered in hair. And it kind of

690
00:36:39.360 --> 00:36:42.400
reminded me of those creatures on pac Man that chase

691
00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:44.360
around pac Man. How you can see like their white

692
00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:48.119
eyes just sticking out of the fur. It had long,

693
00:36:48.199 --> 00:36:51.840
thin lips and you could see these canines sticking from

694
00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:54.760
the top down, kind of like buck teeth. I don't

695
00:36:54.760 --> 00:36:56.800
know how to explain it to you, but the teeth

696
00:36:56.880 --> 00:36:59.639
were dental white, almost like if you if you ever

697
00:36:59.679 --> 00:37:02.960
seen a German shepherd, how white their teeth are. That's

698
00:37:03.000 --> 00:37:06.639
how it was on this juvenile sasquatch. But all of

699
00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:09.800
a sudden, he starts to turn to his right and

700
00:37:09.880 --> 00:37:15.400
he slowly turns and he sees me. His eyes shoot open,

701
00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:18.119
almost like he just seen the devil or like a demon,

702
00:37:18.519 --> 00:37:21.320
and you could tell the creature was shocked. So basically

703
00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:23.880
he kind of like puffs up his chest, takes like

704
00:37:23.920 --> 00:37:27.119
this breath of air, and then shoots behind the oak tree.

705
00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:30.519
And after he shot behind the oak tree, he was gone,

706
00:37:30.920 --> 00:37:33.960
like completely gone. He never like took off running and

707
00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:35.679
kind of like if you spook white tall you hear

708
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:39.920
like there was no commotion nothing. Once he hit behind

709
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:43.119
the tree, he was gone and it was like he

710
00:37:43.199 --> 00:37:47.360
pulled this Houdini move. I don't know, like he just disappeared.

711
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:51.280
I'm not gonna say it was like anything paranormal or supernatural,

712
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:57.519
but it was unusual for sure. But after that encounter,

713
00:37:57.639 --> 00:38:00.719
I kind of looked behind me and the woods, and

714
00:38:00.719 --> 00:38:02.840
I thought, Okay, if there's a little one out here,

715
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:06.440
that means mom and Dad's around. And I didn't see anything.

716
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:09.639
I mean, I just kept thinking to myself, Man, that

717
00:38:09.840 --> 00:38:12.280
was the coolest thing I had ever seen. I kept

718
00:38:12.280 --> 00:38:15.119
saying that over man, that's so cool, and all of

719
00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:18.599
a sudden, like in my mind, I start realizing, like

720
00:38:19.039 --> 00:38:22.039
we've been lied to, Like a lot of things that

721
00:38:22.559 --> 00:38:27.119
I've learned in life see on the knees are just

722
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:30.360
complete bs. Not everything obviously, like a lot of the

723
00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:32.599
stuff is true, but a lot of the things that

724
00:38:32.639 --> 00:38:36.280
we don't know about we've been led to because what

725
00:38:36.360 --> 00:38:40.480
I had just seen contradicts everything that I've learned. But

726
00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:45.760
after that incident, it was probably okay, So I don't

727
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:47.760
I don't know if I mentioned the juvenile encounter that

728
00:38:47.760 --> 00:38:49.920
happened in July. So the jet black sass quatch with

729
00:38:49.920 --> 00:38:53.079
the white stripes was in June. Juvenile encounter was in July.

730
00:38:53.519 --> 00:38:57.760
So now we're moving into the fall season, so it's

731
00:38:57.800 --> 00:39:01.519
full time. I'm sitting in my room and I smoked

732
00:39:01.519 --> 00:39:04.239
cigarettes at the time. It was pretty cold out there,

733
00:39:04.719 --> 00:39:06.960
so I had the window open, and I had my

734
00:39:07.559 --> 00:39:09.800
hand like hanging out the window because it was really

735
00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:11.320
cold that day. I didn't want to go out there.

736
00:39:12.079 --> 00:39:15.159
And I hear this commotion going on outside. It sounds

737
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:19.079
like a chimpanzee being ripped apart, and later on I

738
00:39:19.159 --> 00:39:21.039
learned that it was like a fox and heat or

739
00:39:21.159 --> 00:39:26.320
a fox distress call. But I'm listening to this vocalization

740
00:39:26.519 --> 00:39:28.840
and it just sounds intense, like something out there is

741
00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:33.039
in pain. And all of a sudden, I grab my

742
00:39:33.039 --> 00:39:36.039
my spotlight. I'm shining out there into the dark woods,

743
00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:40.559
wondering what it is. And then this fox comes out

744
00:39:41.079 --> 00:39:43.840
from the woods into the tall grass, through the yard,

745
00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:46.199
and then back into the woods on the other side

746
00:39:46.239 --> 00:39:50.880
of the yard. And the whole time, this vocalization's going off,

747
00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:54.480
this distress call. And then I don't know, probably a

748
00:39:54.559 --> 00:39:57.880
few seconds a few minutes after that, another fox comes

749
00:39:57.880 --> 00:39:59.800
out of the woods. But this fox is like real

750
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:03.920
to the ground, like he's trying to be slick, and

751
00:40:04.199 --> 00:40:06.960
he goes through the yard into the woods. And then

752
00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:11.639
later on another fox comes out of the grass from

753
00:40:11.679 --> 00:40:14.760
the woodline, through the yard and back in the woods.

754
00:40:15.199 --> 00:40:17.199
So I thought, man, that's kind of weird. And this

755
00:40:17.320 --> 00:40:20.719
vocalization is still going off, like whatever it is is

756
00:40:20.719 --> 00:40:22.599
still out there. So all of a sudden, I hear

757
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:27.239
this commotion where like the fox headed to into the woods,

758
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:30.039
like they came out from one side and went through

759
00:40:30.079 --> 00:40:33.719
the yard on the other side. And I hear this commotion.

760
00:40:33.760 --> 00:40:35.639
It sounds like a big group of deer just ran

761
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:40.679
up to the edge of the woodline. Just so, I

762
00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:43.119
shine the spotlight across the yard into the woods and

763
00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:45.920
I see all these eyes, these glowing eyes. It's probably

764
00:40:46.079 --> 00:40:50.320
like five to seven eyes or five to seven like

765
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:54.239
different creatures. And I'm just shining into the woodline. You

766
00:40:54.280 --> 00:40:56.559
can't see like whatever it is. You can just see

767
00:40:56.559 --> 00:41:01.639
the eye shine because the spotlights only penetrated I don't know,

768
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:04.639
a few feet into the woods across the yard. And

769
00:41:05.199 --> 00:41:08.880
I'm thinking, Okay, if that was Bigfoot, the eyes would

770
00:41:08.920 --> 00:41:11.199
be way higher off the ground, because at this point

771
00:41:11.199 --> 00:41:13.119
they're only like three to four feet off the ground.

772
00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:16.480
They're kind of like swaying back and forth, all the eyes,

773
00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:20.639
and like I said, it's probably like five to seven creatures. Well,

774
00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:24.599
as soon as I think that's probably not Bigfoot because

775
00:41:24.599 --> 00:41:27.199
it's low to the ground, one of the eyes goes

776
00:41:27.280 --> 00:41:31.679
up to about no exaggeration, probably like ten to thirteen

777
00:41:31.719 --> 00:41:36.519
feet high, just like an elevator, and I'm thinking, what

778
00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:39.199
the heck, I know it's them at this point, It's

779
00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:43.280
like that's bigfoot. They're freaking they're outside right now. And

780
00:41:43.320 --> 00:41:47.079
then as I'm hitting them with the spotlight, I hear

781
00:41:47.199 --> 00:41:49.760
something coming from the direction that the fox came. I

782
00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:54.679
hear bipedal footsteps just I can hear it deep in

783
00:41:54.679 --> 00:41:57.599
the woods, and it's getting closer and closer and closer.

784
00:41:57.760 --> 00:42:04.079
Just sounds like a big lumberjack walking around outside. So

785
00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:08.360
I shine my flat my spotlight in this gap of trees,

786
00:42:08.440 --> 00:42:11.719
like between these cedars, and I'm just holding it there

787
00:42:11.800 --> 00:42:14.599
because because I know whatever's walking up is going to

788
00:42:14.679 --> 00:42:18.079
join this group of sasquatch. And I'm just holding it there,

789
00:42:18.199 --> 00:42:23.000
holding it there, and it's getting closer and closer, and

790
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:25.599
all of a sudden, this creature walks through that gap

791
00:42:25.639 --> 00:42:29.760
of trees and it's like probably about seven feet tall,

792
00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:33.920
maybe even taller, and it's a grayish white color. It

793
00:42:33.920 --> 00:42:37.719
has a round head, black almond shaped eyes, and it

794
00:42:37.880 --> 00:42:41.519
joins up with that group of sasquatch. So I shut

795
00:42:41.559 --> 00:42:44.320
the window and I'm like, oh, my gosh, they're outside

796
00:42:44.880 --> 00:42:48.440
like you would think as someone like somebody who wants

797
00:42:48.440 --> 00:42:50.800
to learn more about these creatures and who's out there

798
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:53.039
all the time trying to figure it out. There was

799
00:42:53.119 --> 00:42:54.679
no way in hell that I was going to go

800
00:42:54.719 --> 00:42:57.559
out there that night. It just terrified me. I knew

801
00:42:57.559 --> 00:43:00.360
they were out there and something about night time. I

802
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:02.719
can go out there during the day, but at nighttime

803
00:43:02.760 --> 00:43:05.639
it's a completely different story, because when you're out there

804
00:43:06.599 --> 00:43:09.960
alone with these creatures, I mean, you're just completely vulnerable

805
00:43:10.000 --> 00:43:12.960
and they can make you disappear real quick. But I

806
00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:16.119
didn't go out there that night because I had already

807
00:43:16.159 --> 00:43:18.559
seen what I wanted to see, you know, like people

808
00:43:18.599 --> 00:43:20.599
want to see a bigfoot that just happened, Like I

809
00:43:20.639 --> 00:43:22.360
don't need to go out there and shake its hand.

810
00:43:23.400 --> 00:43:29.360
So I mean, yeah, that's a majority of my encounters, Miguel.

811
00:43:29.400 --> 00:43:33.599
That's absolutely incredible. So I'm guessing at this point you

812
00:43:33.679 --> 00:43:34.800
start making the channel.

813
00:43:35.000 --> 00:43:38.559
Yeah, I start telling my encounters, and I just I

814
00:43:38.599 --> 00:43:40.920
tell myself, I'm only going to tell these encounters and

815
00:43:40.920 --> 00:43:43.480
I'm never going to speak about it again. So I

816
00:43:43.559 --> 00:43:46.840
make like three different videos on YouTube and explain everything

817
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:52.320
that I just described to you, and people start contacting me.

818
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:54.960
They're like, hey, I've had similar experiences. How do I

819
00:43:55.039 --> 00:43:57.239
contact you? And I'm like, well, you can talk to me.

820
00:43:57.280 --> 00:44:00.400
And I made some really good friends after I made

821
00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:02.920
the channel and a lot of like minded people, And

822
00:44:02.960 --> 00:44:06.239
it's just it's hard to believe how many people are

823
00:44:06.239 --> 00:44:08.639
out there with experiences and encounters. You know, they have

824
00:44:08.719 --> 00:44:10.519
to live with this and they don't have anyone to

825
00:44:10.559 --> 00:44:11.280
talk to about it.

826
00:44:11.679 --> 00:44:14.679
Oh absolutely, And I'm sure you wake up every day

827
00:44:14.760 --> 00:44:17.800
and you check your email and there's just like, like

828
00:44:17.880 --> 00:44:21.159
my email, there's tons of emails just people that are like,

829
00:44:21.920 --> 00:44:23.840
I have no one to talk to. I need someone

830
00:44:23.880 --> 00:44:28.639
to talk to that will just take this as I

831
00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:30.280
say it and not make fun of me.

832
00:44:32.519 --> 00:44:35.519
Oh yeah, absolutely all the time. And you know, it's

833
00:44:35.559 --> 00:44:38.960
a good feeling when people thank you for listening to

834
00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:42.320
their encounters and you know the fact that somebody would

835
00:44:42.360 --> 00:44:45.360
take their time out of their life to listen to it,

836
00:44:45.400 --> 00:44:47.239
you know, it really means a lot to people. And

837
00:44:47.960 --> 00:44:49.400
you know, when they have to live with this and

838
00:44:49.400 --> 00:44:51.119
they don't have anyone to talk to, you know, it

839
00:44:51.159 --> 00:44:54.920
can really become a burden on their life and it

840
00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:57.800
infests your mind, honestly, because you think about it over

841
00:44:57.880 --> 00:45:00.679
and over, and when you talk to people about it,

842
00:45:00.719 --> 00:45:03.559
they're like, oh, yeah, Bigfoot, Yeah, the tooth fairy is

843
00:45:03.599 --> 00:45:06.800
real too. How much have you been smoking lately? You know,

844
00:45:06.960 --> 00:45:08.800
it's kind of a slap in the face because it's

845
00:45:08.880 --> 00:45:11.280
kind of like being attacked by a grizzly bear and

846
00:45:11.320 --> 00:45:13.480
going back to people and them just being like, ah,

847
00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:16.000
you made that up. You know, it's something serious that

848
00:45:16.079 --> 00:45:18.599
happened that affected your life absolutely.

849
00:45:19.360 --> 00:45:22.840
After you had these encounters with the bigfoot around your

850
00:45:23.079 --> 00:45:26.079
home area, did you start talking to your neighbors to

851
00:45:26.079 --> 00:45:28.559
see if they were having issues as well.

852
00:45:31.159 --> 00:45:33.719
I spoke to a few neighbors and I asked them

853
00:45:33.719 --> 00:45:36.639
if they ever had any experiences, and you know, a

854
00:45:36.639 --> 00:45:39.000
lot of them said no, And that kind of blew

855
00:45:39.079 --> 00:45:41.119
my mind because some of them are pretty close. And

856
00:45:42.320 --> 00:45:44.199
the only thing I could think of was every time

857
00:45:44.239 --> 00:45:46.360
I was out there doing research, whenever I had the

858
00:45:46.360 --> 00:45:49.880
whistles happen in the orbs, the encounters. Every day that

859
00:45:49.960 --> 00:45:52.159
I would be out there far away in the distance,

860
00:45:52.199 --> 00:45:55.519
in the deep woods, the deep deep woods, I would

861
00:45:55.559 --> 00:45:59.480
hear logging going on. So it's my theory that the

862
00:45:59.519 --> 00:46:02.719
logging pushed them to this property. And then on the

863
00:46:02.719 --> 00:46:05.400
other side, I always hear like these roosters going off,

864
00:46:05.719 --> 00:46:08.320
you know, chickens, so I knew somebody had the chicken coop.

865
00:46:08.760 --> 00:46:11.039
And there's also that creek that I was telling you about,

866
00:46:11.199 --> 00:46:13.599
and that's the direction that all the sasquash would come

867
00:46:13.639 --> 00:46:17.599
and go from. But that creek leads to the Merrimack River,

868
00:46:17.679 --> 00:46:20.440
and there's a lot of bigfoot reports by the Merrimack River.

869
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:25.079
What did set it in stone for me was later

870
00:46:25.119 --> 00:46:28.239
on after these encounters, I got on the BFMRO website

871
00:46:28.639 --> 00:46:31.199
and I started looking up encounters in my area. And

872
00:46:31.280 --> 00:46:34.920
I looked up and there were a lot of reports.

873
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:37.639
So I read the reports, and a lot of them

874
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:40.280
were off areas that are like five minutes from my place.

875
00:46:40.880 --> 00:46:44.159
So that blew my mind. I was like, Okay, that's cool.

876
00:46:44.280 --> 00:46:47.320
There's reports like right down the road and I had

877
00:46:47.360 --> 00:46:51.559
no idea about it. But yeah, I mean that that

878
00:46:51.639 --> 00:46:52.480
helped out a lot.

879
00:46:52.599 --> 00:46:56.639
That that is wild oh man, And it's yeah, I'm guessing,

880
00:46:57.199 --> 00:46:59.880
is there stuff still progressing to this day in that

881
00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:02.480
same area You're still experiencing things?

882
00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:07.800
No, absolutely not. The more research I did, the less

883
00:47:08.360 --> 00:47:11.159
activity that I experience, you would think that Once you

884
00:47:11.280 --> 00:47:13.199
know about this and you're aware of it, you know

885
00:47:13.199 --> 00:47:15.920
what to look for, what to listen for. You build

886
00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:20.639
up this channel and buy all this equipment, recorders, night vision, thermal, parabolic,

887
00:47:22.119 --> 00:47:25.840
Like the stuff just stops happening. It's like, what the heck?

888
00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:29.079
And I'm going out there even more and I, like

889
00:47:29.119 --> 00:47:30.679
I said, I know what to look for, and it

890
00:47:30.760 --> 00:47:33.079
just doesn't happen anymore. And it kind of blows my mind.

891
00:47:33.119 --> 00:47:36.079
I don't know, Like, you know, you hear these strange

892
00:47:36.079 --> 00:47:38.800
stories where people are like, oh, they know your intentions,

893
00:47:38.840 --> 00:47:40.840
they know if you have a camera, they know what

894
00:47:40.880 --> 00:47:43.840
you're thinking. Like, I don't know, I don't know if

895
00:47:43.880 --> 00:47:46.519
that's true, but it kind of seems to be or

896
00:47:46.559 --> 00:47:48.880
it's just it was just all random in nature, and

897
00:47:50.000 --> 00:47:52.280
I don't know. I don't believe it was luck, but

898
00:47:52.360 --> 00:47:55.400
I believe that everything happens for a reason. And I

899
00:47:55.440 --> 00:47:57.840
was going through a hard time at that time in

900
00:47:57.880 --> 00:47:59.679
my life, Like I said, I had the sky attic

901
00:47:59.760 --> 00:48:03.239
in my back, I lost my job and all my

902
00:48:03.320 --> 00:48:05.559
friends moved away. I was going through a really hard time.

903
00:48:05.719 --> 00:48:08.400
So I feel like these creatures tuned in on that,

904
00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:12.320
and I don't know, kind of like how when wolves hunt,

905
00:48:12.599 --> 00:48:15.559
like they go after the week prey, they go after

906
00:48:15.599 --> 00:48:17.880
the sick ones, and I feel like they could pick

907
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:18.719
up on that energy.

908
00:48:19.000 --> 00:48:23.199
Oh wow, that's that is extremely interesting. Do you ever

909
00:48:23.280 --> 00:48:28.599
go out with a very small amount of electronic devices on.

910
00:48:28.519 --> 00:48:33.280
You, just like my phone and stuff? Okay, I mean

911
00:48:33.320 --> 00:48:35.440
I always have my phone just because I got I

912
00:48:35.480 --> 00:48:38.119
mean even still this day, Like I know they exist,

913
00:48:38.159 --> 00:48:40.960
but I get burnt out. I'm bringing my camera. Like

914
00:48:40.960 --> 00:48:43.679
you can't have your camera in your hand twenty four

915
00:48:43.679 --> 00:48:45.760
hours a day. It gets old, you know, carrying that

916
00:48:45.840 --> 00:48:48.400
around every time you go out there. So yeah, I

917
00:48:48.400 --> 00:48:50.519
mean I've tried to go out there with no electronics

918
00:48:50.559 --> 00:48:54.519
and just nothing happens. That incident that I told you

919
00:48:54.559 --> 00:48:57.119
with the spotlight, whenever I heard the fox and distress

920
00:48:57.159 --> 00:48:59.239
out there and all the eye shining and I saw

921
00:48:59.280 --> 00:49:01.760
the big gray one. I had my camp order in

922
00:49:01.760 --> 00:49:04.360
my hand. I was trying to record it, but it

923
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:06.920
was just pitch black. I didn't know how to use

924
00:49:06.960 --> 00:49:10.639
the camera. I think I had it on on auto

925
00:49:10.840 --> 00:49:13.920
rather than manual, and I don't know, I just didn't

926
00:49:13.960 --> 00:49:15.320
know how to use I didn't know how to set

927
00:49:15.320 --> 00:49:19.480
the ISO and you know the shutter speed and all that.

928
00:49:19.599 --> 00:49:21.800
So it's just the only thing you could hear is

929
00:49:21.840 --> 00:49:25.840
that that vocalization. I think later on I learned that

930
00:49:25.840 --> 00:49:28.280
that was a fox in distress. So, but did sound

931
00:49:28.360 --> 00:49:30.920
like a chimpanzee being or part Yeah.

932
00:49:30.920 --> 00:49:35.800
Those foxes sound really weird when they are. Yeah, foxes

933
00:49:35.840 --> 00:49:37.679
can freak you out and freak you out. I know

934
00:49:37.760 --> 00:49:39.840
that from living up in New England for a while.

935
00:49:39.880 --> 00:49:42.599
But so the thing I like about having a channel

936
00:49:42.639 --> 00:49:48.920
myself is sometimes when you talk to someone, there's the

937
00:49:48.960 --> 00:49:52.159
accounts that they give, it's almost a life breeds into

938
00:49:52.199 --> 00:49:54.639
them and it just it starts this whole story and

939
00:49:54.679 --> 00:49:57.719
you start investigating this one area and then it just

940
00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:01.519
gets bigger and bigger. Can you think of any things

941
00:50:01.599 --> 00:50:04.280
in the history of sasquatch theory where it's like I

942
00:50:04.320 --> 00:50:06.800
talked to this one guy and then this one area

943
00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:12.360
just became this massive, like huge storyline in the channel.

944
00:50:16.159 --> 00:50:19.159
As far as like people who told their encounters and

945
00:50:19.199 --> 00:50:22.719
it became like a mainstream thing in the bigfil community.

946
00:50:23.159 --> 00:50:26.119
Well, you know, like let's say, like for example, like

947
00:50:26.199 --> 00:50:28.559
when I I think of my channel, I think of

948
00:50:28.639 --> 00:50:31.079
like there's a lot of stuff that always comes out

949
00:50:31.079 --> 00:50:33.679
of oakrage Ore again, and it's like you keep looking

950
00:50:33.719 --> 00:50:36.320
into it and more and more, and like sometimes it

951
00:50:36.360 --> 00:50:38.519
feels like you keep looking into this one area and

952
00:50:38.639 --> 00:50:41.920
just get more and more reports and kind of gets

953
00:50:41.920 --> 00:50:44.280
a life of his zone of its own. Has that

954
00:50:44.400 --> 00:50:46.800
ever happened to you on sasquatch theory?

955
00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:53.320
Oh? Yeah, absolutely. There's several areas just to Missouri that

956
00:50:53.639 --> 00:50:57.880
I keep getting reports from. There's an area east like

957
00:50:58.000 --> 00:51:02.119
southeast of solid in Missouri. I mean there's just a

958
00:51:02.119 --> 00:51:05.039
lot of reports there. Like I'm always getting reports and

959
00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:08.719
I say always. It's not like every day, but every

960
00:51:08.760 --> 00:51:10.320
now and then I'll get reports from there, and they

961
00:51:10.400 --> 00:51:14.119
kind of build up over time. I've noticed that South

962
00:51:14.159 --> 00:51:17.519
Missouri is a hot area. Southeast Missouri is pretty hot.

963
00:51:17.800 --> 00:51:22.000
I was out there investigating an area in the Mark

964
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:25.039
twenty National Forest in southeast Missouri, and I went out

965
00:51:25.079 --> 00:51:27.119
there and made a film and the property owner told

966
00:51:27.199 --> 00:51:29.400
me that he went out one morning about three am

967
00:51:29.920 --> 00:51:32.599
with this flashlight and there's a sasquatch lane at the

968
00:51:32.679 --> 00:51:35.119
edge of the yard into the woodline, and it just

969
00:51:35.159 --> 00:51:37.599
stood up and like walked off and kind of looked

970
00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:40.559
back at him. And he had a lot of experiences

971
00:51:40.599 --> 00:51:45.920
after that. I went out there and filmed that. We

972
00:51:46.000 --> 00:51:49.679
went around walking down by the creek bottom, and we

973
00:51:49.719 --> 00:51:53.800
didn't really find too much. We found some questionable tracks,

974
00:51:53.880 --> 00:51:56.159
and just not a whole lot happened. So we were

975
00:51:56.199 --> 00:51:59.639
in the yard by the campfire, and I was thinking,

976
00:51:59.639 --> 00:52:02.760
in my mind, Okay, nothing happened today, there's no reason

977
00:52:02.800 --> 00:52:06.280
to really stay the night. I'm probably gonna go home.

978
00:52:06.320 --> 00:52:08.960
Everyone's talking back and forth, and I'm waiting for them

979
00:52:09.079 --> 00:52:11.519
to stop talking so I can be like, well, I

980
00:52:11.559 --> 00:52:14.679
think I'm gonna head out, And right before I can

981
00:52:14.719 --> 00:52:18.199
even say that, this loud wood knock happens, like it

982
00:52:18.239 --> 00:52:22.280
sounds like someone hit two wooden baseball bats together, and

983
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:24.840
we all look at each other, white eyed, like did

984
00:52:24.960 --> 00:52:28.199
you just hear that? And then another wood knock, boom,

985
00:52:28.960 --> 00:52:32.800
and then another one boom, and they're coming like it's

986
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:35.920
all happening around the yard, like it's not just one sasquatch,

987
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:39.679
like there's several of them down in there, and it

988
00:52:39.800 --> 00:52:42.360
just keeps happening, like the wood knocks, and it sounds

989
00:52:42.360 --> 00:52:44.559
like they're just walking around the woods at the edge

990
00:52:44.559 --> 00:52:48.079
of the woodline, like dragging like limbs and snapping twigs.

991
00:52:49.119 --> 00:52:51.599
So we sat there and listened to them vocalized. It

992
00:52:51.639 --> 00:52:54.840
was the coolest thing ever. I mean, it was magical, honestly.

993
00:52:54.920 --> 00:52:57.480
So I walked up to where this thing was wood

994
00:52:57.519 --> 00:52:59.760
knock and it was right there in the woods, and

995
00:53:00.880 --> 00:53:03.440
I grabbed my audio recorder and set it like right

996
00:53:03.440 --> 00:53:04.960
there in front of him in the yard. There was

997
00:53:04.960 --> 00:53:06.880
like this pile of logs, so I just set it

998
00:53:06.920 --> 00:53:10.159
on the logs and I got some really good audio.

999
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:12.199
But none of the other guys wanted to go close

1000
00:53:12.239 --> 00:53:14.880
to him, like they were terrified. I would ask it

1001
00:53:14.960 --> 00:53:16.880
to wood knock, it would would knock. I asked it

1002
00:53:16.920 --> 00:53:18.880
to push it over a tree, and then it pushed

1003
00:53:18.920 --> 00:53:21.360
over a tree. It didn't happen as soon as I asked,

1004
00:53:21.360 --> 00:53:23.639
like it would happen like thirty seconds after i'd ask.

1005
00:53:23.719 --> 00:53:26.440
I don't know if it could understand me, but it

1006
00:53:26.519 --> 00:53:28.679
did all those things, and I asked it to do that,

1007
00:53:28.760 --> 00:53:31.679
because obviously I know Bigfoot does all that. But I

1008
00:53:31.719 --> 00:53:35.920
went out there and things kept happening throughout the months,

1009
00:53:35.920 --> 00:53:38.760
throughout the weeks, and we just hear them vocalize, and

1010
00:53:40.079 --> 00:53:43.679
it was it was awesome. But later on another guy

1011
00:53:43.800 --> 00:53:46.880
contacts me. His name's Adam. He's got that channel called

1012
00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:48.639
the half inch French crew. I'm not sure if you

1013
00:53:48.679 --> 00:53:53.920
ever watched it, but I saw that. Yeah. Yeah, he

1014
00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:56.280
thinks that I'm like from a different state. He has

1015
00:53:56.280 --> 00:53:59.960
no idea that excuse me that I'm from Missouri, but yeah,

1016
00:54:00.199 --> 00:54:02.000
me where I live. And I'm like, I'm from Missouri.

1017
00:54:02.039 --> 00:54:05.639
He's like, oh, I'm from Missouri too, And then he

1018
00:54:05.800 --> 00:54:08.239
told me the town that he's from. And I'm like, dude,

1019
00:54:08.239 --> 00:54:10.480
do you know that Bill's cabin is right up the

1020
00:54:10.559 --> 00:54:12.800
road from you. He's like, no, huh, He's like, you're

1021
00:54:12.800 --> 00:54:14.760
from Missouri, you're from this area. I was like yeah.

1022
00:54:14.840 --> 00:54:17.719
I was like, I've been researching right up the road

1023
00:54:17.719 --> 00:54:20.000
from where you've been having experiences. And that kind of

1024
00:54:20.000 --> 00:54:23.159
blew his mind. He couldn't believe that. And I mean

1025
00:54:23.440 --> 00:54:25.679
when he said the name of the town, I knew

1026
00:54:25.719 --> 00:54:28.800
he was telling the truth because I've been going down

1027
00:54:28.840 --> 00:54:31.400
there doing research. And he showed me the photos that

1028
00:54:31.400 --> 00:54:34.760
he that he'd captured as far as like tracks his

1029
00:54:34.760 --> 00:54:37.800
neighbor has like greenhouses, and the sasquatch would get in

1030
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:40.039
there and like press up the grants up against like

1031
00:54:40.079 --> 00:54:43.480
the greenhouse. So it was really cool. And yeah, there's

1032
00:54:43.519 --> 00:54:46.880
reports are coming out of there frequently.

1033
00:54:48.199 --> 00:54:51.920
That is is fascinating. Missouri is such an interesting state

1034
00:54:51.960 --> 00:54:54.159
when it comes to Bigfoot. There are so many things

1035
00:54:54.199 --> 00:54:59.159
going on. There's one that I always want. I always

1036
00:54:59.360 --> 00:55:02.119
like to bring out whenever I'm talking to someone from Missouri,

1037
00:55:02.280 --> 00:55:04.199
just to see if there's anything there that you know

1038
00:55:04.280 --> 00:55:06.239
anything about it? But have you ever heard of the

1039
00:55:06.280 --> 00:55:09.639
spot Monkey Mountain? I think it's north of Kansas City.

1040
00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:15.199
Yeah, I get people that talk about Monkey Mountain and

1041
00:55:15.440 --> 00:55:17.400
I've never been there, but I hear about it. It's

1042
00:55:17.400 --> 00:55:20.360
pretty close to like an air Force base, like east

1043
00:55:20.400 --> 00:55:23.719
of Kansas City. I'm pretty close to IY seventy, I

1044
00:55:23.760 --> 00:55:24.280
think it is.

1045
00:55:24.760 --> 00:55:29.480
Have you heard of actual class as happening there or.

1046
00:55:29.599 --> 00:55:32.920
Yeah, I've heard. I've heard of a few, and I

1047
00:55:32.960 --> 00:55:36.639
took a few reports from that area. I can't remember

1048
00:55:36.679 --> 00:55:39.440
the towns that are around it, but I want to say,

1049
00:55:39.480 --> 00:55:43.599
like the town's called like Spring Spring something, and it's

1050
00:55:43.880 --> 00:55:47.440
pretty close to Monkey Mountain. But yeah, there's also another

1051
00:55:47.480 --> 00:55:50.599
guy I interviewed after the killing Fields, a guy that

1052
00:55:50.719 --> 00:55:54.559
owned like a little gift shop in Salem, Missouri. He

1053
00:55:54.639 --> 00:55:57.639
talked about experiences there and yeah, it seems to be

1054
00:55:57.639 --> 00:55:59.679
a hot area. I'm not really sure what's going on there,

1055
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:01.880
because a lot of people say the activities like in

1056
00:56:01.960 --> 00:56:04.039
the Ozarks in the Mark Twain. But I tell them

1057
00:56:04.039 --> 00:56:06.960
this stuff can happen anywhere. If you got woods, you

1058
00:56:07.000 --> 00:56:09.840
have trees, they can be in there. Oh yeah.

1059
00:56:09.840 --> 00:56:12.599
And especially if your property is like next to a

1060
00:56:12.760 --> 00:56:15.719
river and there seems to be like a bend in

1061
00:56:15.719 --> 00:56:18.440
that river. I mean, I usually find that that's a

1062
00:56:18.480 --> 00:56:22.159
pretty good indicator. But you know, you focus. It seems

1063
00:56:22.199 --> 00:56:24.880
a lot of your time in Missouri. Have you ever,

1064
00:56:25.519 --> 00:56:28.679
you know, went out to other states or is there

1065
00:56:28.679 --> 00:56:31.480
a plan maybe to check out other spots in the

1066
00:56:31.519 --> 00:56:34.000
future or just kind of stick in Missouri.

1067
00:56:35.800 --> 00:56:40.199
Yeah. I've been to South Carolina and the girlfriend lives there,

1068
00:56:40.320 --> 00:56:43.599
and we went exploring a few areas where she's had

1069
00:56:43.679 --> 00:56:47.079
things happen, some paranormal stuff. And as soon as we

1070
00:56:47.119 --> 00:56:51.119
get to that area, we hear something by people walking

1071
00:56:51.159 --> 00:56:55.000
down the hill and the Appalachian Mountains, and I'm thinking,

1072
00:56:55.039 --> 00:56:56.719
since we just got out of the car in the

1073
00:56:56.719 --> 00:57:00.039
parking lot, those are people coming down the hillside. I

1074
00:57:00.039 --> 00:57:01.639
didn't record it. I didn't want to be staying there

1075
00:57:01.679 --> 00:57:04.400
with my camera. As these people walked down, I'm filming

1076
00:57:04.440 --> 00:57:06.760
them like they're animals. But whatever it was, it just

1077
00:57:06.800 --> 00:57:10.880
stopped at the like before it could present itself, and

1078
00:57:10.920 --> 00:57:13.599
it just stopped. Everything got silent. So later on I thought, man,

1079
00:57:13.679 --> 00:57:16.559
that must have been bigfoot, but I don't know. But

1080
00:57:17.519 --> 00:57:21.000
we went down about five miles from that area. We

1081
00:57:21.000 --> 00:57:25.000
were checking out a new spot, and from the parking

1082
00:57:25.039 --> 00:57:27.840
lot when we're parked there, there's this big pine thicket

1083
00:57:27.960 --> 00:57:29.760
and I start to see like a bunch of breaks

1084
00:57:29.800 --> 00:57:31.639
and I don't know if it's like wind damage, but

1085
00:57:31.679 --> 00:57:34.239
I go in there, I start exploring it and I

1086
00:57:34.360 --> 00:57:37.840
find a ton of structures. I mean, these are awesome structures.

1087
00:57:38.159 --> 00:57:40.440
A lot of people don't believe the structures are created

1088
00:57:40.440 --> 00:57:43.320
by Bigfoot. They think it's just wind damage snowload, which

1089
00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:45.920
some of it could be. But I mean, this is

1090
00:57:46.039 --> 00:57:49.199
like perfect symmetrical exes. And there's a bunch of xes

1091
00:57:49.199 --> 00:57:51.679
in there, a bunch of arches, a bunch of trees

1092
00:57:51.800 --> 00:57:55.079
weaved in to each other. It was pretty cool. Recently

1093
00:57:55.119 --> 00:57:59.360
I went to Alaska and we did an expedition up

1094
00:57:59.360 --> 00:58:01.880
there for seven days and we found a bunch of

1095
00:58:01.880 --> 00:58:05.159
tree breaks in this area that was infested with grizzly

1096
00:58:05.199 --> 00:58:10.280
bears and as me and the other researcher were walking

1097
00:58:10.280 --> 00:58:12.320
through the area. I look to my right and I

1098
00:58:12.400 --> 00:58:15.199
see like this black head and it kind of shoots

1099
00:58:15.239 --> 00:58:17.119
off to the right. He's walking in front of me

1100
00:58:17.159 --> 00:58:19.199
and I start walking backwards. Well, as soon as I

1101
00:58:19.199 --> 00:58:22.519
start walking backwards, he is too, and I asked him,

1102
00:58:22.639 --> 00:58:25.000
did you see something? He's like, oh yeah. I was like,

1103
00:58:25.039 --> 00:58:26.880
what did you see? I was like, was it a

1104
00:58:26.920 --> 00:58:30.920
black head? He's like, yeah, a black head. But we

1105
00:58:31.000 --> 00:58:33.960
don't know if that was bigfoot, But I mean, whatever

1106
00:58:34.000 --> 00:58:38.280
it was capture our attention and it was pretty cool.

1107
00:58:38.440 --> 00:58:40.559
I mean, walking around at two in the morning and

1108
00:58:40.719 --> 00:58:46.079
Alaska in the middle of like the Kenan Peninsula is freaky.

1109
00:58:46.480 --> 00:58:49.079
Oh yeah, I mean we ran into grizzly bears and

1110
00:58:49.679 --> 00:58:50.320
it was freaky.

1111
00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:53.239
Oh, Miguel, that's intense. You don't get too many too

1112
00:58:53.239 --> 00:58:55.719
many tries up there. From what I hear, you got

1113
00:58:55.760 --> 00:58:57.599
to be really on your toes. So I'm glad that

1114
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:00.679
you were well aware of what's going on for sure.

1115
00:59:02.320 --> 00:59:05.880
Mm hmmm, oh yeah. We were all alarms, so I

1116
00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:08.719
felt pretty confident. He had a German shepherd, and I

1117
00:59:08.719 --> 00:59:12.079
felt like that was our little alarm system. But it's

1118
00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:16.639
it's different up there in Alaska because the time zones

1119
00:59:17.400 --> 00:59:20.599
like three hours off and it doesn't get dark like

1120
00:59:20.679 --> 00:59:23.320
it's daylight even at like two in the morning all

1121
00:59:23.360 --> 00:59:25.599
the way till morning time, like it just gets like

1122
00:59:25.639 --> 00:59:28.599
it's almost like it's getting dusk, but it's still daylight,

1123
00:59:28.719 --> 00:59:31.480
and then it just gets bright again. Kind of weird.

1124
00:59:31.800 --> 00:59:34.360
It's got to mess with you for sure, then, Miguel,

1125
00:59:34.400 --> 00:59:37.840
I really appreciate you chatting tonight. There's the last question

1126
00:59:37.920 --> 00:59:40.159
I have for you is you know, and you may

1127
00:59:40.199 --> 00:59:42.519
have even gotten this one before from listeners, but I'm

1128
00:59:42.559 --> 00:59:44.760
sure you have a lot of people watching your channel

1129
00:59:44.880 --> 00:59:47.320
and they're like, man, I want to go out there,

1130
00:59:47.360 --> 00:59:52.039
I want to check out Sasquatch areas myself. Do you

1131
00:59:52.119 --> 00:59:55.400
have any advice for people that you know want to

1132
00:59:55.440 --> 01:00:00.440
start going out and looking for bigfoot themselves.

1133
01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:07.000
The best thing I can say is go out there

1134
01:00:07.000 --> 01:00:09.440
and hunt. Spend a lot of time in an area

1135
01:00:09.960 --> 01:00:13.000
and maybe they'll approach you. Go and camp in a

1136
01:00:13.000 --> 01:00:17.679
remote area off the river and do some whoops and

1137
01:00:17.719 --> 01:00:22.079
wood knocks. Maybe you'll get a reaction. But it's hard

1138
01:00:22.159 --> 01:00:26.000
to point people in that direction because you can look

1139
01:00:26.079 --> 01:00:30.159
up like these class A encounter sighting areas and see

1140
01:00:30.159 --> 01:00:32.760
this cluster of bigfoot encounters and go out there and

1141
01:00:32.800 --> 01:00:34.679
spend a lot of time in those areas and never

1142
01:00:34.719 --> 01:00:38.800
hear or see anything. It's all random by nature, and

1143
01:00:38.880 --> 01:00:41.400
these things are pretty rare, and they can be many

1144
01:00:41.440 --> 01:00:45.199
miles in between. And I mean, we hear all these

1145
01:00:45.239 --> 01:00:50.519
stories and encounters from the internet, but in reality is

1146
01:00:50.559 --> 01:00:52.199
like a lot of them took place like in the

1147
01:00:52.239 --> 01:00:55.320
seventies or you know, a long time ago when someone

1148
01:00:55.480 --> 01:00:59.840
was just a kid. And when we hear these new reports,

1149
01:01:00.840 --> 01:01:04.280
there's not there's not that many people in a state

1150
01:01:04.320 --> 01:01:06.280
that are have encounters. We just hear a lot of

1151
01:01:06.280 --> 01:01:08.639
them because of the Internet. We're like, oh Man, Tennessee

1152
01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:11.079
has a lot of encounters. But in reality, if you

1153
01:01:11.199 --> 01:01:14.320
lived in Tennessee, if you lived in those areas that

1154
01:01:14.360 --> 01:01:16.599
are hotspot areas, you can ask hunters that have been

1155
01:01:16.679 --> 01:01:18.960
hunting there for forty years and they'll tell you I've

1156
01:01:19.000 --> 01:01:21.559
never seen or heard anything, and I've been out here

1157
01:01:21.559 --> 01:01:24.320
in my whole life. So it's it's really hard to say,

1158
01:01:24.360 --> 01:01:26.360
but yeah, the best advice I can get people is

1159
01:01:26.440 --> 01:01:30.280
all of the food, all the waterways, and maybe you'll

1160
01:01:30.280 --> 01:01:32.920
hear something that's great advice.

1161
01:01:32.960 --> 01:01:36.559
Do you mind. So, I feel it's it's really important

1162
01:01:36.559 --> 01:01:38.960
if you enjoy a channel to be able to support

1163
01:01:39.039 --> 01:01:41.800
the channel. Can you share, just for a few minutes

1164
01:01:41.840 --> 01:01:44.559
about how people can you know, keep up to date

1165
01:01:44.559 --> 01:01:48.039
with sasquatch theory and maybe different ways they can help you,

1166
01:01:48.039 --> 01:01:50.840
you know, keep to make videos for the future.

1167
01:01:53.639 --> 01:01:57.880
Yeah, I mainly post to YouTube. I'm on Facebook and

1168
01:01:57.920 --> 01:02:01.440
Instagram and those seem to be the ones that work

1169
01:02:01.519 --> 01:02:03.679
for me, so yeah, I mean, if you want to

1170
01:02:03.719 --> 01:02:06.679
see photos and short videos, you can go to Facebook

1171
01:02:06.719 --> 01:02:09.440
and Instagram, and as far as the YouTube, that seems

1172
01:02:09.480 --> 01:02:16.079
to be the main focus for me. But yeah, if

1173
01:02:16.079 --> 01:02:19.400
people want to support the channel, they can purchase some merchandise.

1174
01:02:19.559 --> 01:02:21.599
I mean, I think the last time I sold something

1175
01:02:21.719 --> 01:02:24.719
was a few months ago. But I mean, the best

1176
01:02:24.719 --> 01:02:26.800
thing they can do is just watch the videos and

1177
01:02:26.880 --> 01:02:28.840
if you have an encounter you would like to share,

1178
01:02:28.920 --> 01:02:32.039
contact Jeremiah or myself and we'd both like to hear

1179
01:02:32.079 --> 01:02:34.480
your encounters. Absolutely.

1180
01:02:34.519 --> 01:02:37.639
Well, thanks again for hanging out for a bit, Miguel,

1181
01:02:37.800 --> 01:02:39.519
and it's a pleasure to be able to chat with

1182
01:02:39.559 --> 01:02:40.039
you tonight.

1183
01:02:41.639 --> 01:02:44.960
Yeah. Absolutely, and thank you for giving me the opportunity

1184
01:02:45.079 --> 01:02:47.199
to be on the Bigfoot society.

1185
01:02:47.960 --> 01:02:50.280
Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something

1186
01:02:50.320 --> 01:02:53.519
directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're

1187
01:02:53.559 --> 01:02:57.320
in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've

1188
01:02:57.320 --> 01:03:00.239
seen something that no one can explain, or if you're

1189
01:03:00.239 --> 01:03:03.480
a National park ranger or forestry worker who's been told

1190
01:03:03.480 --> 01:03:06.480
to stay quiet, or if you're a pilot who's seen

1191
01:03:06.559 --> 01:03:09.800
something strange down on the ground, or if you're with

1192
01:03:09.840 --> 01:03:13.519
the FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence and you've

1193
01:03:13.519 --> 01:03:16.639
stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about. And

1194
01:03:16.719 --> 01:03:20.079
if you're a firefighter, paramedic, or search and rescue responder

1195
01:03:20.159 --> 01:03:23.400
who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense.

1196
01:03:23.920 --> 01:03:27.760
If you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field,

1197
01:03:27.920 --> 01:03:30.960
or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something

1198
01:03:31.039 --> 01:03:34.440
happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're

1199
01:03:34.440 --> 01:03:38.320
a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under

1200
01:03:38.360 --> 01:03:41.719
contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report.

1201
01:03:42.280 --> 01:03:44.719
If you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a

1202
01:03:44.760 --> 01:03:48.239
spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your faith,

1203
01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:52.039
or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA, or

1204
01:03:52.079 --> 01:03:55.760
anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't,

1205
01:03:56.800 --> 01:04:00.159
then I want to talk to you, even if it's anonymous. Yes,

1206
01:04:02.039 --> 01:04:05.639
you can reach me at Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com.

1207
01:04:06.000 --> 01:04:08.440
The world needs to hear what you've been forced to

1208
01:04:08.480 --> 01:04:14.320
carry alone, and you're not alone. You've got the story,

1209
01:04:14.800 --> 01:04:18.639
We've got the mic. See you in the woods. Thank

Every encounter we share reminds us that the world is

1212
01:04:24.079 --> 01:04:27.199
bigger and stranger than we think, and that the truth

1213
01:04:27.239 --> 01:04:30.079
is often hiding just beyond the tree line. If you
