Mother Sees a 7-Foot Figure Step Onto a Trail Near St. Louis

A mother hiking with her two children near St. Louis spots a face watching them from the brush. Then the figure stands up.


On this episode of Bigfoot Society, Lori recounts an encounter on Missouri’s Howell Island that left her focused on one thing: getting her children back to the truck. What she noticed about the figure’s face makes her account especially unsettling.


More witnesses share unexplained experiences across the country: an Oregon firefighter-paramedic hears screams during a nighttime emergency call, a Georgia fisherman watches a massive figure cross the Chattahoochee River in roughly three steps, and two trail cameras disappear from a baited site while the remaining camera is found turned around. In Texas, hunters following a blood trail discover a strange footprint and hear a nearby farmer’s story about the field he stopped entering.


Listen to Bigfoot Society Episode 1218 for firsthand accounts, unusual details, and the questions witnesses still carry.

00:00:00.210 --> 00:00:03.129
You're listening to Bigfoot Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In

2
00:00:03.149 --> 00:00:05.809
this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring

3
00:00:05.849 --> 00:00:09.880
you firsthand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible.

4
00:00:10.140 --> 00:00:13.720
From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms

5
00:00:13.839 --> 00:00:17.140
and crowded highways, the stories come from everywhere, and each

6
00:00:17.260 --> 00:00:21.100
one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are

7
00:00:21.140 --> 00:00:24.579
the voices of the people who've lived it. So settle

8
00:00:24.660 --> 00:00:27.960
in because today you'll hear another account that just might

9
00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:30.839
change the way you see the woods forever. So stay

10
00:00:30.859 --> 00:00:33.479
with us. Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers as he

11
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:37.789
continues his fight against cancer. For more updates about his

12
00:00:37.869 --> 00:00:41.689
medical journey, please go to the CaringBridge link in the

14
00:00:43.689 --> 00:00:44.909
Hey, Marcus, how's it going?

15
00:00:46.659 --> 00:00:47.299
What's up, brother?

16
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:50.759
Hey, so you've had a Bigfoot sighting, you said?

17
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:52.259
Yes, sir.

18
00:00:52.340 --> 00:00:55.899
Feel free to share what you've experienced down in North Georgia.

19
00:00:57.740 --> 00:01:02.840
Man, my family, they've been going up there for years

20
00:01:02.909 --> 00:01:07.370
doing trout fishing extravaganzas and such. And we were up

21
00:01:07.409 --> 00:01:12.370
there fishing on the Chattahoochee River. You know, in trout fishing,

22
00:01:12.409 --> 00:01:12.989
you sort of.

23
00:01:14.989 --> 00:01:15.150
Just.

24
00:01:16.049 --> 00:01:18.750
You all stay together, but you sort of stay apart

25
00:01:18.989 --> 00:01:21.870
so you don't, you know, overcrowd a fishing hole or whatnot, yada, yada.

26
00:01:21.890 --> 00:01:24.269
But anyway, we were up there fishing, though, and we

27
00:01:24.290 --> 00:01:29.890
were like, I don't know, five to ten miles from,

28
00:01:30.450 --> 00:01:32.709
you know, civilization. It was up in the mountains. Anyway,

29
00:01:32.750 --> 00:01:37.150
I was walking and come around a bend in the river,

30
00:01:38.010 --> 00:01:43.370
and I seen something I thought was a bear. It

31
00:01:43.409 --> 00:01:47.329
was probably, I don't know, 50 yards maybe up the

32
00:01:47.390 --> 00:01:49.609
river or down. I was walking down the river, so

33
00:01:49.629 --> 00:01:52.159
it was down the river from me. So I stopped

34
00:01:52.379 --> 00:01:56.060
in fear of, you know, disturbing a bear, a black bear,

35
00:01:56.079 --> 00:02:00.019
because there's black bear everywhere up there. And so I

36
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:05.769
just stopped. And, of course, when I trout fish, I

37
00:02:05.829 --> 00:02:07.890
camo out from head to toe because trout can see

38
00:02:07.930 --> 00:02:12.680
you real easy. So in order to eliminate that, you

39
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:14.979
camo out. That way you can creep up to hole

40
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:17.550
and fish or whatnot. But anyway, I was camo to

41
00:02:17.590 --> 00:02:20.409
the gill. So I just squatted down and watched it

42
00:02:21.129 --> 00:02:23.870
to see because I'm serious. It looked just like a

43
00:02:23.909 --> 00:02:28.509
bear standing there playing in the river. And it seemed

44
00:02:28.550 --> 00:02:31.349
like it lasted two hours, but it was only, I mean,

45
00:02:31.349 --> 00:02:34.490
15 seconds at the most. But then it stood up

46
00:02:35.150 --> 00:02:37.530
and it crossed the river and went up the mountain

47
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:40.259
on the other side of the river. And I'm like,

48
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:43.780
you know, and I've always been a believer to a

49
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:49.599
certain extent. I've heard and seen videos and yada yada.

50
00:02:50.590 --> 00:02:55.659
But I had never really seen one, you know, personally

51
00:02:55.699 --> 00:02:59.300
until this day now this was uh let's say 24

52
00:02:59.300 --> 00:03:10.530
this was probably in 2006 i think it was then

53
00:03:11.169 --> 00:03:13.849
a couple years later i don't know if you're familiar

54
00:03:13.870 --> 00:03:17.349
with uh brfo them guys old bubba.

55
00:03:16.969 --> 00:03:21.000
Or Yeah, the FRO and finding Bigfoot guys.

56
00:03:21.219 --> 00:03:22.120
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

57
00:03:22.659 --> 00:03:22.860
Right.

58
00:03:22.900 --> 00:03:29.009
Well, I was watching those guys, you know, on TV.

59
00:03:29.789 --> 00:03:35.830
And one of the programs come up with– it was

60
00:03:36.370 --> 00:03:40.719
there in Helen, Georgia, where I had my experience. And

61
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:43.060
I was like, whoa, dude. So I started watching it.

62
00:03:43.060 --> 00:03:46.340
And so, of course, they go up the same– same

63
00:03:46.379 --> 00:03:50.460
place we go to go trout fishing and camp. And

64
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:53.539
the guy took them down the same river that I

65
00:03:53.580 --> 00:03:56.439
was on, the same, because when they're walking down through there,

66
00:03:56.490 --> 00:03:58.889
you know, I've been there a million times. I've been

67
00:03:58.930 --> 00:04:02.229
fishing this river since I was, you know, six years

68
00:04:02.349 --> 00:04:06.930
old with my brother. And everything looked so familiar where

69
00:04:06.949 --> 00:04:10.710
they were going. And they were, when he stopped and

70
00:04:10.729 --> 00:04:14.039
he said, I was right here. And you have to imagine,

71
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:16.500
this was, you know, back a long time ago, they made,

72
00:04:17.019 --> 00:04:19.889
when they logged that, years and years ago, they made

73
00:04:21.529 --> 00:04:24.389
what we call old logging roads along the side of

74
00:04:24.430 --> 00:04:27.149
the mountain right there at the river. So it was

75
00:04:27.209 --> 00:04:29.069
on an old logging road. Of course, they're all growed

76
00:04:29.149 --> 00:04:32.959
up and everything. But he stopped, and you could look

77
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.139
to the right, and, I mean, if I put down

78
00:04:36.180 --> 00:04:38.519
a little embankment, and there's the Chattahoochee River, and he

79
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.000
said it was right here, and it was on the

80
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:44.670
side of that mountain, old logging road he was on

81
00:04:44.689 --> 00:04:46.709
the river fishing and he said he heard something and

82
00:04:46.769 --> 00:04:48.509
he turned and looked and it was standing on that

83
00:04:48.550 --> 00:04:50.670
low logging road and he said it was about he

84
00:04:50.709 --> 00:04:54.129
figured eight foot tall uh big old thing and it

85
00:04:54.170 --> 00:04:56.189
picked up a big log and throwed it sort of

86
00:04:56.230 --> 00:04:58.250
towards his way and he turned and hung it up

87
00:04:58.269 --> 00:05:00.790
and and run back up to the camp now mind

88
00:05:00.810 --> 00:05:04.230
you now up here where we go west i'm serious

89
00:05:04.389 --> 00:05:07.639
you're like 10 miles from helen And you're out in,

90
00:05:07.819 --> 00:05:10.079
I mean, you're in the boondocks. I mean, you're up

91
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:14.160
there in the mountains. Hardly anyone goes up as far

92
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:18.490
as we do because we like going to remote places

93
00:05:18.550 --> 00:05:21.389
that a whole lot of people don't go. So you

94
00:05:21.430 --> 00:05:24.810
catch more and bigger trout. So it was way up

95
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:30.399
there on the Chattahoochee River, on the upper Chattahoochee. But then,

96
00:05:30.420 --> 00:05:33.839
like I said, that was a few years after my

97
00:05:33.899 --> 00:05:37.240
experience when I seen that on there. But now this

98
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:41.899
was the recent one about two, three years ago. We

99
00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:42.860
got a place up there.

100
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:45.899
Oh, sorry. I hate to interrupt.

101
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:48.350
Can I ask you a question about your first encounter

102
00:05:48.430 --> 00:05:50.129
before we.

103
00:05:50.089 --> 00:05:52.629
Get past that? I apologize for jumping in.

104
00:05:52.649 --> 00:05:52.850
Absolutely.

105
00:05:53.899 --> 00:05:57.160
Are you able to describe– did you see anything about

106
00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:00.699
the face of what you saw in the upper Chattahoochee

107
00:06:00.740 --> 00:06:01.930
River that day?

108
00:06:02.740 --> 00:06:07.889
To me, it looked just like a silverback gorilla, but

109
00:06:07.930 --> 00:06:12.110
his hair was longer. And, I mean, from my guesstimation,

110
00:06:12.149 --> 00:06:15.790
when he stood up, he was at least seven foot tall.

111
00:06:15.949 --> 00:06:20.600
I mean, I'm 6'4. I'm a big dude. And it just,

112
00:06:21.220 --> 00:06:23.459
I mean, it would have towered over me. I mean,

113
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:25.860
he had to have been at least seven, eight foot

114
00:06:25.899 --> 00:06:28.579
tall and huge. I mean, his shoulders looked like they

115
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:31.779
were wide as a football field. And he never looked

116
00:06:31.819 --> 00:06:34.000
toward me. He just stood up and just took, like,

117
00:06:34.050 --> 00:06:36.089
three steps, and he was on the other side of

118
00:06:36.129 --> 00:06:39.589
the Chattahoochee River. And the Chattahoochee River there is probably

119
00:06:39.730 --> 00:06:45.110
about 30 to 40 foot wide, and it didn't take

120
00:06:45.149 --> 00:06:48.910
him across the river going up the mountain. I mean,

121
00:06:48.990 --> 00:06:51.230
all this took– it seemed like I said it took–

122
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.600
it seemed like it was two hours, but it was

123
00:06:54.019 --> 00:06:56.319
a matter of, you know, 15 or 20 seconds.

124
00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:57.040
Sure.

125
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:03.490
But, like I said, he had– His arms, when he

126
00:07:03.509 --> 00:07:05.990
started crossing the river, you know, they got that swagger.

127
00:07:07.029 --> 00:07:11.459
And I know for a fact his hands were, it

128
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:16.819
appeared to be two, maybe three foot lower than his waistline.

129
00:07:16.860 --> 00:07:20.439
And you could make him out. I mean, other than

130
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:23.759
the long, black, shaggy-looking hair, looked like it was matted

131
00:07:23.980 --> 00:07:27.360
in spots like an old shaggy, raggy dog that hadn't

132
00:07:27.379 --> 00:07:29.600
been combed or bathed in years.

133
00:07:29.620 --> 00:07:31.160
Right.

134
00:07:31.259 --> 00:07:34.160
I didn't smell him because I was upwind. I guess

135
00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:37.259
that's why he didn't notice me because I was upwind

136
00:07:37.370 --> 00:07:40.290
of him. The wind sort of travels with the river

137
00:07:40.430 --> 00:07:45.449
as it goes down. The wind goes that way. But

138
00:07:45.490 --> 00:07:49.689
he crossed the river. and went up the bank on

139
00:07:49.709 --> 00:07:54.019
the other side. Well, I turned and went back, back

140
00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:56.680
up the river and caught up with my nephews and

141
00:07:56.699 --> 00:07:59.660
my cousins. And of course they all think I'm crazy.

142
00:08:00.420 --> 00:08:00.620
Right.

143
00:08:00.939 --> 00:08:04.310
At this point. And I've told my nephew and in

144
00:08:04.350 --> 00:08:06.569
the past, now listen to this, we were about 18.

145
00:08:06.569 --> 00:08:10.250
Me and my nephew went up there. We were in

146
00:08:10.290 --> 00:08:13.430
the same general area, but we were like, you know,

147
00:08:13.470 --> 00:08:15.550
as a crow flies probably a half a mile from

148
00:08:15.589 --> 00:08:18.470
this spot. And he and I went up there one

149
00:08:18.509 --> 00:08:21.089
weekend and gone to what we call a roughing camping.

150
00:08:21.790 --> 00:08:23.970
So we go up there, just take a little tent,

151
00:08:24.029 --> 00:08:27.730
two-man tent, and we go to hike down through the

152
00:08:27.790 --> 00:08:30.209
woods with nothing but flashlights and go down there and

153
00:08:30.230 --> 00:08:33.740
set up a tent by the river and get up

154
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:36.179
the next morning and we fish. We catch our limit

155
00:08:36.200 --> 00:08:42.139
and we come home. But, well, that night, something was– now,

156
00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:44.000
mind you, this was when I was– I'm 57 now,

157
00:08:44.059 --> 00:08:51.509
and I was– probably 18 in my, you know, right

158
00:08:51.529 --> 00:08:56.840
around in there. Something kept surrounding our campsite, breaking limbs,

159
00:08:56.899 --> 00:08:58.820
and my nephew, you know, he had his. 357, but

160
00:08:58.860 --> 00:09:01.490
he said, oh, it's just probably a bear or something

161
00:09:01.509 --> 00:09:04.590
like that. And I'm like, no, dude. I mean, you

162
00:09:04.610 --> 00:09:07.169
can tell. And at this time, I had no idea

163
00:09:07.230 --> 00:09:10.549
what big putt was. I had no idea. I hadn't

164
00:09:10.610 --> 00:09:13.230
even been introduced to anything like that. But I knew

165
00:09:13.389 --> 00:09:16.720
something was up because I'm an avid hunter. I'm in

166
00:09:16.750 --> 00:09:20.700
the woods all the time doing something. And I knew

167
00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:25.220
it was more than one of them. And you could hear.

168
00:09:26.909 --> 00:09:30.129
Stuff hitting the river and limbs breaking. But like I said,

169
00:09:30.220 --> 00:09:32.799
it was pitch black. I mean, with no lights on

170
00:09:33.179 --> 00:09:35.240
and not the fire, you could not see your hand

171
00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:38.220
a centimeter away from your nose. This is how pitch

172
00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:40.940
black it was. So you didn't really have no light.

173
00:09:42.019 --> 00:09:45.009
And we passed it off as, you know, a bear

174
00:09:45.070 --> 00:09:47.789
or cougar or whatever. Okay, now getting back to what

175
00:09:47.809 --> 00:09:49.730
I was going to tell you just now, about two

176
00:09:49.789 --> 00:09:53.019
years ago, I had a camper and I'd go up

177
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:55.840
to our place up there in Helen and camp. And

178
00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:57.460
I'd stay up there two weeks at a time with

179
00:09:57.480 --> 00:10:00.960
my little dogs. One night, it was about two in

180
00:10:00.980 --> 00:10:03.419
the morning, my little dog had to potty, so I

181
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:05.120
took him out of the camper and was standing on

182
00:10:05.139 --> 00:10:09.750
the deck, and he was standing there pottying, and I mean,

183
00:10:10.149 --> 00:10:14.350
this thing was probably... 100 yards from me. It sounded

184
00:10:14.370 --> 00:10:17.169
like he was right there beside me. But it started

185
00:10:17.649 --> 00:10:22.070
howling and growling sort of at the same time, and

186
00:10:22.169 --> 00:10:27.389
it lasted for over a minute. I mean, it scared

187
00:10:27.429 --> 00:10:30.429
me so bad, I felt my soul leave my body.

188
00:10:30.450 --> 00:10:32.970
I mean, that's how terrified I was. And I've been

189
00:10:33.009 --> 00:10:34.870
in the woods, like I said, all my life. I've

190
00:10:34.909 --> 00:10:39.899
heard bobcats, cougars, bear, you name it. I've never, ever

191
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.059
heard anything like this. Well, it scared my dog, and

192
00:10:43.100 --> 00:10:45.940
he'd run into the camper and wouldn't come back out.

193
00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:51.830
But it lasted for over a minute, just, I mean,

194
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:55.590
just crazy. And I told my nephew about it because

195
00:10:55.610 --> 00:11:03.809
he and I are the same age. And we were like, dude, no,

196
00:11:03.889 --> 00:11:06.330
it wasn't. I've heard that. I've been in a deer stand,

197
00:11:07.470 --> 00:11:09.549
and I've seen two bobcats tie up for a battle,

198
00:11:10.509 --> 00:11:14.190
and this was nowhere near what this was. And I've

199
00:11:14.210 --> 00:11:17.110
heard bears, and I've heard this and that and the other,

200
00:11:17.149 --> 00:11:20.769
and that's not what it was. But I went up

201
00:11:20.809 --> 00:11:24.389
to– Last year, I went to our place up there

202
00:11:24.429 --> 00:11:26.169
and I was determined. I told them, I said, all right,

203
00:11:26.190 --> 00:11:28.929
I'm going to get you proof. So I had three

204
00:11:28.970 --> 00:11:31.850
trail cameras. I got my trail cameras and I went

205
00:11:31.889 --> 00:11:34.690
to our place up there and I went fishing. And

206
00:11:34.769 --> 00:11:37.269
I got, I caught a bunch of brim out of

207
00:11:37.330 --> 00:11:40.169
the lake there. And I went on the other side

208
00:11:40.220 --> 00:11:44.500
of the pond where it's WMA land. Nobody goes. And

209
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:47.500
so I went up through there and I strategically put

210
00:11:47.580 --> 00:11:51.370
my trail cameras around this one area. And I put

211
00:11:51.389 --> 00:11:54.190
them up as high as I could reach to where,

212
00:11:54.529 --> 00:11:56.799
you know, you couldn't be real visible from walking on

213
00:11:56.820 --> 00:12:00.620
the ground. And I took all those fish and there

214
00:12:00.659 --> 00:12:02.919
was a dead tree laying there and had broke limbs everywhere.

215
00:12:02.940 --> 00:12:06.429
And so I just took a brim and I stuck it,

216
00:12:06.500 --> 00:12:10.549
just siskabobbed it on to this tree all over it

217
00:12:10.590 --> 00:12:13.649
like Christmas ornaments. And I had all those cameras pointing

218
00:12:13.669 --> 00:12:17.379
to that area. Hell, I stayed there for two weeks.

219
00:12:17.840 --> 00:12:19.720
I said, I'm not gonna bother it, I'm not gonna

220
00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:21.620
check it until I get ready to leave and then

221
00:12:21.639 --> 00:12:24.279
I'm gonna come over and get my cameras and stuff. Well,

222
00:12:24.330 --> 00:12:27.639
two weeks later, before I was gonna leave to come home,

223
00:12:28.730 --> 00:12:30.370
I got in my little boat and I went across

224
00:12:30.389 --> 00:12:32.350
the lake way over there and I got out, walked

225
00:12:32.409 --> 00:12:34.929
up there and I walked up and I looked and

226
00:12:34.990 --> 00:12:38.309
two of my cameras were gone and one of them

227
00:12:38.549 --> 00:12:41.850
was turned around backwards facing the other way away from

228
00:12:41.950 --> 00:12:46.039
the fish. And it had a few pictures of deer,

229
00:12:47.840 --> 00:12:51.570
a couple of pictures of bobcats and raccoons and stuff

230
00:12:51.610 --> 00:12:56.110
like that. But the camera was actually turned around facing

231
00:12:56.710 --> 00:12:59.789
on the other side of the tree. And I'm yet

232
00:12:59.809 --> 00:13:01.889
to find my other two trail cameras. I have no

233
00:13:01.950 --> 00:13:05.590
idea where they went. But I put them up. Like

234
00:13:05.610 --> 00:13:09.009
I said, I'm 6'4. And I reached as high as

235
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:11.639
I could and put them on the tree. Made sure

236
00:13:11.659 --> 00:13:14.710
all of them was on, pointing to this one area. Because,

237
00:13:14.750 --> 00:13:17.149
you know, I've heard that they can see the ultraviolet

238
00:13:17.549 --> 00:13:21.429
ray when the camera takes a picture. You know, even

239
00:13:21.470 --> 00:13:24.830
deer can see it. I've got pictures of deer looking

240
00:13:24.870 --> 00:13:26.730
right at my camera right after a picture. So I

241
00:13:26.769 --> 00:13:33.029
know they can see that light when it flashes. And

242
00:13:33.070 --> 00:13:36.889
I'm planning on another excursion. I got in touch with

243
00:13:36.929 --> 00:13:40.429
my nephew. And, of course, you know, he thinks I'm loco.

244
00:13:41.460 --> 00:13:42.679
But I told him, I said, man, we need to

245
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:46.240
go do another roughhead camping and go up there on

246
00:13:46.340 --> 00:13:51.659
the Chattahoochee and go trout fishing. But we're yet to

247
00:13:51.700 --> 00:13:54.500
set another date. Well, brother, I'm telling you, I know

248
00:13:54.539 --> 00:13:55.220
what I saw.

249
00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:56.720
Yes, sir.

250
00:13:56.919 --> 00:14:02.460
People say I'm crazy. You know, I was, I'd heard

251
00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:06.659
a lot of stuff about Bigfoot, this, that, and the other. And,

252
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:12.120
I mean, honestly, dude, you got to be skeptical. Until

253
00:14:12.940 --> 00:14:18.480
you see it with your own eyes, you're skeptical. Oh, man,

254
00:14:18.500 --> 00:14:21.259
you crazy. You're on dope. You're this, they're that, the other.

255
00:14:21.750 --> 00:14:25.110
But I'm telling you that that day I seen what

256
00:14:25.190 --> 00:14:31.389
I saw changed my life forever. And I haven't found tracks.

257
00:14:31.730 --> 00:14:36.090
I haven't seen any evidence other than that brief moment.

258
00:14:36.250 --> 00:14:39.220
I seen one up there way up on the upper epitome.

259
00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:44.360
upper end of the Chattahoochee River in North Georgia. I

260
00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:47.539
know what I saw. At that time, I didn't have

261
00:14:47.580 --> 00:14:51.350
my phone. I didn't have access to taking a picture

262
00:14:51.389 --> 00:14:54.610
or anything like that. It's just I know what I saw.

263
00:14:54.730 --> 00:14:57.909
And then a couple of years later, like I said,

264
00:14:57.990 --> 00:15:05.909
I seen that episode of BRFO on TV. And they

265
00:15:05.929 --> 00:15:08.169
were up there in the– well, they were close to

266
00:15:08.210 --> 00:15:13.809
where I was at. But in the same general area. Now,

267
00:15:13.850 --> 00:15:18.809
my place that we have in North Georgia there is

268
00:15:19.049 --> 00:15:22.570
approximately seven miles from the Chattahoochee River.

269
00:15:22.590 --> 00:15:23.629
Okay.

270
00:15:29.549 --> 00:15:30.870
We go up there a lot. We've been going up

271
00:15:30.889 --> 00:15:33.450
there for– we've had it for 25 years, been going

272
00:15:33.490 --> 00:15:33.750
up there.

273
00:15:33.769 --> 00:15:34.710
Oh, wow.

274
00:15:34.730 --> 00:15:37.899
Now, I've heard old people talking up there about, you know,

275
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:42.000
hearing things that, you know, it's a resort. And there's

276
00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:46.350
people that live in this resort.

277
00:15:46.379 --> 00:15:48.129
Old people.

278
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:52.779
People that's retired. You know, I mean, you know, I've

279
00:15:52.820 --> 00:15:54.940
gotten to know a lot of people that live up there.

280
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:58.059
I've actually got friends that live up there. And, you know,

281
00:15:58.100 --> 00:16:00.860
talking to them, talking to the older folks, you hear

282
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:02.879
a lot of stuff. And they talk about it. And

283
00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:07.970
a lot of them know that they're there, but they

284
00:16:07.990 --> 00:16:12.289
don't want to talk about it for fear of, you know,

285
00:16:12.330 --> 00:16:14.669
people talking about them thinking they're crazy or you need

286
00:16:14.690 --> 00:16:17.570
to get back on your meds, yada, yada. But if

287
00:16:17.610 --> 00:16:20.309
you really sit down with certain people, they'll open up

288
00:16:20.370 --> 00:16:25.500
to you and tell you their stories and stuff. But, yeah,

289
00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:30.279
we're planning on another trip here soon, I hope. As

290
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.139
soon as the weather cools off a little bit. It's

291
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:36.100
really too hot right now. Marcus, if you— But we're

292
00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:37.090
going to go up there, man.

293
00:16:37.809 --> 00:16:40.730
If you run into anything else, you can always reach

294
00:16:40.830 --> 00:16:46.259
out to me. Mybigfootsocietyatgmail.com email address is right there on screen.

295
00:16:46.379 --> 00:16:47.639
So if you want to make a note of that,

296
00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:48.899
you can always reach out, man.

297
00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:52.169
Okay, brother. I appreciate it.

298
00:16:52.740 --> 00:16:53.039
Yes, sir.

299
00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:58.139
Thank you for sharing what you've experienced. Absolutely, man. Good hunting.

300
00:16:58.440 --> 00:16:58.700
All right.

301
00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:03.879
Great first call from Marcus talking about the upper Chattahoochee

302
00:17:03.950 --> 00:17:07.250
River of North Georgia and his sighting he had there.

303
00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:11.220
Thank you so much, Marcus, for coming on. Let's reach

304
00:17:11.289 --> 00:17:17.869
out to Cliff. Cliff, are you saying that you've had

305
00:17:18.069 --> 00:17:19.490
an encounter in Tennessee?

306
00:17:20.029 --> 00:17:20.750
Oh, here we go.

307
00:17:20.769 --> 00:17:28.880
Let's see if it connects.

308
00:17:32.180 --> 00:17:32.359
Hello?

309
00:17:32.380 --> 00:17:33.240
Let's see if it connects.

310
00:17:33.259 --> 00:17:34.039
Hey, Cliff.

311
00:17:35.039 --> 00:17:37.599
Are you saying that you've had a Bigfoot encounter in Tennessee?

312
00:17:39.240 --> 00:17:43.410
Yeah, I've been getting wrapping on trees here. This started

313
00:17:43.490 --> 00:17:46.890
about three or four weeks ago. The first time I

314
00:17:46.930 --> 00:17:50.170
heard it, it was wrapping on the trees. Now, I

315
00:17:50.210 --> 00:17:53.779
have a friend that's up in Vermont that is familiar

316
00:17:53.819 --> 00:17:56.180
with the Bigfoot. As a matter of fact, she knows one.

317
00:17:56.799 --> 00:17:59.920
She calls him Pumpkin because he likes pumpkin cream cheese.

318
00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:03.849
And he actually comes up to, you know, he eats

319
00:18:03.869 --> 00:18:06.029
a lot of stuff that she leaves out for him.

320
00:18:07.289 --> 00:18:09.210
And I asked her about this, and she said, well,

321
00:18:09.289 --> 00:18:12.549
normally they would wrap on a tree to kind of

322
00:18:12.569 --> 00:18:17.109
scare you off. But she said that they might be

323
00:18:17.150 --> 00:18:21.200
trying to make contact. The first time I heard it,

324
00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:24.680
I went outside with the flashlight, and I shined it

325
00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:27.880
across the street where I heard this coming from.

326
00:18:27.900 --> 00:18:29.279
And I.

327
00:18:30.619 --> 00:18:36.130
Seen a reflection with the flashlight of red glowing eyes.

328
00:18:37.289 --> 00:18:40.490
out in the street. And on the side of the

329
00:18:40.529 --> 00:18:43.390
property where my friend's house is here, it goes up

330
00:18:43.470 --> 00:18:45.730
on a hill. He has cattle over there, and it's

331
00:18:45.769 --> 00:18:48.069
a big, steep hill. And it went in there, and

332
00:18:48.109 --> 00:18:52.869
it just passed a big pine tree, turned around and

333
00:18:52.890 --> 00:18:54.950
looked back at me again for a few seconds. And

334
00:18:55.009 --> 00:18:57.430
there again, I seen the red glowing eyes. That's why

335
00:18:57.450 --> 00:19:01.559
I Googled this. And it said, pounding on a tree,

336
00:19:02.619 --> 00:19:06.480
and Bigfoot eyes glow red when you shine a light

337
00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:10.960
in it. So that's the first, that's when I've seen it.

338
00:19:11.609 --> 00:19:15.410
But now for the last, oh, probably two or three weeks,

339
00:19:16.450 --> 00:19:20.190
I've been getting, pounding on the tree sometimes around 2.40

340
00:19:20.190 --> 00:19:23.099
in the morning or 5 o'clock in the morning. But

341
00:19:23.130 --> 00:19:27.240
it's every time I go out, it stops. It's enough

342
00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:30.500
to wake me up almost every night. And I don't

343
00:19:30.539 --> 00:19:31.420
know why they're doing it.

344
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:34.839
Cliff, can you share.

345
00:19:35.380 --> 00:19:37.559
What general area of Tennessee this is in?

346
00:19:38.140 --> 00:19:38.920
Yeah, Sneedville.

347
00:19:40.099 --> 00:19:42.180
You said Needville?

348
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:45.349
No, Sneedville. Sneedville. Yeah, Sneedville.

349
00:19:45.369 --> 00:19:46.990
Let me look it up.

350
00:19:47.410 --> 00:19:49.690
I'm right across the street from the clubhouse.

351
00:19:50.299 --> 00:19:50.670
Mountains.

352
00:19:57.779 --> 00:19:58.559
Let's see.

353
00:19:58.759 --> 00:19:58.900
Gotcha.

354
00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:03.519
The night that I actually seen the glowing eyes, you know,

355
00:20:04.140 --> 00:20:08.710
with the flashlight, I... I stayed outside for a while

356
00:20:08.750 --> 00:20:10.849
because I kept trying to see if it would come

357
00:20:10.910 --> 00:20:13.069
up to me because it rapped on the tree probably

358
00:20:13.630 --> 00:20:18.349
eight or ten times, pretty loud. And so I stayed

359
00:20:18.410 --> 00:20:22.400
out there even after it disappeared, and it was going

360
00:20:22.619 --> 00:20:27.880
west from where I am. And up the road, some

361
00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:31.059
people have horses, and I heard the horses like they

362
00:20:31.079 --> 00:20:33.920
were scared. You know, it had a horse's sound when

363
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:36.450
they get startled by something. I heard the horses up

364
00:20:36.490 --> 00:20:39.670
the street, so it must have went by them and

365
00:20:39.730 --> 00:20:42.029
scared them because I heard them all the way over here.

366
00:20:42.049 --> 00:20:51.680
That is extremely, extremely interesting. Have other people in the

367
00:20:51.700 --> 00:20:54.299
same area been having issues like that as well?

368
00:20:54.339 --> 00:20:56.740
Have you talked to anybody?

369
00:20:56.880 --> 00:20:59.880
The one night when– the second, I think it was

370
00:20:59.920 --> 00:21:05.170
the second or third night that this was happening– I

371
00:21:05.210 --> 00:21:07.529
went outside and I was looking around and I noticed

372
00:21:07.589 --> 00:21:10.589
my neighbor came out. This was like a three in

373
00:21:10.609 --> 00:21:12.470
the morning, three between three and four.

374
00:21:12.289 --> 00:21:12.789
In the morning.

375
00:21:13.670 --> 00:21:16.559
And I seen them turn their porch lights on. So

376
00:21:16.579 --> 00:21:19.140
the next morning when they, when I seen them down, uh,

377
00:21:20.660 --> 00:21:22.460
close to the property here, I asked him, I said,

378
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:26.259
did you guys hear anything last night? And they said, yeah,

379
00:21:26.299 --> 00:21:28.140
they heard like a banging, but they thought it was

380
00:21:28.180 --> 00:21:32.980
somebody banging on their fence posts or something. And she said,

381
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:35.859
but yeah, they heard it also. And that's my neighbors

382
00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:36.380
next door.

383
00:21:40.660 --> 00:21:41.410
Interesting.

384
00:21:41.529 --> 00:21:47.250
Have you ever had any visuals of anything yet?

385
00:21:47.990 --> 00:21:48.230
No.

386
00:21:48.650 --> 00:21:50.710
The only thing I got to see so far was

387
00:21:51.990 --> 00:21:59.019
the glowing eyes in the reflection from the flashlight. Every

388
00:21:59.059 --> 00:22:03.000
time I go out my door, the wrapping stops. I'm

389
00:22:03.019 --> 00:22:04.940
just going to go over here and shut my scanner down.

390
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:05.680
Yeah, you're good.

391
00:22:07.420 --> 00:22:09.910
Every time I go out my door, I live in

392
00:22:09.950 --> 00:22:14.009
a 12 by 32 shed, so I have a door

393
00:22:14.029 --> 00:22:17.329
at each end. And I've tried going out both doors,

394
00:22:17.369 --> 00:22:18.910
and no matter which end I go out, as soon

395
00:22:18.950 --> 00:22:23.329
as I step outside, it stops. So they're close enough

396
00:22:23.369 --> 00:22:25.549
to where they can see me. I don't know where

397
00:22:25.569 --> 00:22:28.259
they're at, though. I haven't been able to locate them again.

398
00:22:29.849 --> 00:22:32.309
The last time it happened, it was 2.20 in the morning.

399
00:22:33.450 --> 00:22:37.210
And that was about three days ago. And my friend,

400
00:22:37.650 --> 00:22:40.180
the friend's property who I'm on, he's got a big

401
00:22:40.220 --> 00:22:44.579
dog like a sheep dog. And when this rapping started,

402
00:22:44.660 --> 00:22:47.880
she started barking too. So the dog is hearing it

403
00:22:47.960 --> 00:22:48.279
as well.

404
00:22:52.380 --> 00:22:53.000
Very, very.

405
00:22:53.059 --> 00:22:56.400
Yeah, there's definitely something going on for sure. Are you

406
00:22:56.440 --> 00:23:00.220
hearing any sounds that are out of the ordinary or

407
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:02.200
feel like they don't belong in your area?

408
00:23:03.109 --> 00:23:06.130
Just the wrapping on the trees. I told my friend

409
00:23:06.170 --> 00:23:08.750
about it and he said, maybe it's a bear because

410
00:23:08.789 --> 00:23:11.369
we do have bear here. But I said, bears don't

411
00:23:11.490 --> 00:23:14.470
wrap on trees. He's got apple trees and pear trees.

412
00:23:15.089 --> 00:23:17.369
And when they came around, when I first got here,

413
00:23:17.490 --> 00:23:19.339
they would just come down. They would eat the apples

414
00:23:19.380 --> 00:23:22.460
down on the ground. They never made no noise. If

415
00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:24.119
they do anything, they go up in the tree and

416
00:23:24.140 --> 00:23:26.519
they'll shake it and try to get the fruit out.

417
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:28.099
But I said, they ain't going to pound on it.

418
00:23:28.519 --> 00:23:29.240
This was loud.

419
00:23:29.319 --> 00:23:31.259
The first time I heard it, it sounded like someone

420
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:34.250
was beating on a tree with a sledgehammer. It was loud.

421
00:23:35.309 --> 00:23:36.069
It was real loud.

422
00:23:37.410 --> 00:23:37.690
Wow.

423
00:23:38.710 --> 00:23:40.349
It sounds like you definitely have.

424
00:23:40.430 --> 00:23:40.990
I mean, it woke me up.

425
00:23:41.029 --> 00:23:42.119
It was enough to wake me up.

426
00:23:42.829 --> 00:23:43.369
Absolutely.

427
00:23:43.410 --> 00:23:48.569
You definitely have a situation where it could continue to get...

428
00:23:49.220 --> 00:23:53.950
more intense. And I would be careful about leaving things outside,

429
00:23:53.990 --> 00:23:56.509
like leaving food outside, if you know what I mean.

430
00:23:56.529 --> 00:23:57.390
Yeah.

431
00:23:58.190 --> 00:23:58.410
Yeah.

432
00:24:00.289 --> 00:24:03.089
Man, Cliff, thank you. Thank you for sharing that. Please

433
00:24:03.130 --> 00:24:06.130
keep me in mind. My email is right there on screen.

434
00:24:06.170 --> 00:24:09.740
You can probably see it. And also feel free to

435
00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:14.220
pass on my info, my email to your friend in

436
00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:19.190
Vermont who has the interaction with the Bigfoot called pumpkin

437
00:24:19.250 --> 00:24:22.589
that I would, I would love to maybe chat with

438
00:24:22.609 --> 00:24:27.589
her for a few minutes too, but, um, email is bigfootsociety.com.

439
00:24:29.849 --> 00:24:33.509
I don't know if you're, you're familiar, but, um, she's,

440
00:24:33.789 --> 00:24:37.119
she is what they call a star seed. She's been

441
00:24:37.150 --> 00:24:39.599
up on board the ships almost 70 times in the

442
00:24:39.660 --> 00:24:40.119
last year.

443
00:24:41.019 --> 00:24:41.359
Okay.

444
00:24:41.400 --> 00:24:42.220
Well, absolutely.

445
00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:46.460
The Bigfoot, um, originally came here from off planet and,

446
00:24:47.039 --> 00:24:50.720
The reptilians and stuff was using them as slaves to

447
00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:58.059
build the pyramids. And when the other good, higher vibe

448
00:24:59.059 --> 00:25:02.440
space people came here and freed them, they gave them

449
00:25:02.460 --> 00:25:04.509
a choice to either go home or stay here. And

450
00:25:04.529 --> 00:25:05.549
they liked our planet.

451
00:25:06.069 --> 00:25:07.750
But what people don't.

452
00:25:07.630 --> 00:25:14.289
Know is these creatures are very intelligent. They can speak.

453
00:25:14.329 --> 00:25:19.109
They know several languages. And they can also, because she lives,

454
00:25:19.269 --> 00:25:23.019
she's in Vermont. She's almost into the Canadian border. She's

455
00:25:23.079 --> 00:25:25.420
way up in the mountains. Okay, gotcha.

456
00:25:25.460 --> 00:25:26.019
Yep, yep.

457
00:25:27.740 --> 00:25:31.279
Okay, she's way up there. She's like 20 miles from

458
00:25:31.319 --> 00:25:40.390
the Canadian border. And she said, because Pumpkin has his

459
00:25:40.730 --> 00:25:43.769
clan or whatever you want to call it. And she's

460
00:25:44.349 --> 00:25:48.099
pretty much known to them. And she said she's actually

461
00:25:48.160 --> 00:25:50.660
had five others. She said, I was up in the

462
00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:53.240
old woods one day walking and I heard something. I

463
00:25:53.279 --> 00:25:56.500
heard something, you know, snapping in the branches. And she

464
00:25:56.539 --> 00:26:01.180
said one big one stepped out. And then another one,

465
00:26:01.400 --> 00:26:03.500
she said there was five of them total.

466
00:26:04.019 --> 00:26:04.319
Wow.

467
00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:07.640
That stepped out and just stood there and kind of

468
00:26:07.700 --> 00:26:13.630
nodded their head. And she said, you know, what do you,

469
00:26:13.740 --> 00:26:17.750
she said, you know, can I help you? And they

470
00:26:17.950 --> 00:26:23.599
approached her and they said, we heard about you, that

471
00:26:23.640 --> 00:26:27.319
you're friends with some here, and we wanted to come

472
00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:29.180
and check you out. She said they came from all

473
00:26:29.220 --> 00:26:32.619
different parts of Vermont, but they actually talked with her.

474
00:26:34.109 --> 00:26:34.750
Was that.

475
00:26:36.410 --> 00:26:39.069
Through telepathy or verbally?

476
00:26:40.049 --> 00:26:40.470
Verbally.

477
00:26:41.150 --> 00:26:41.490
Really?

478
00:26:41.990 --> 00:26:42.410
In English?

479
00:26:42.430 --> 00:26:43.730
Yeah. Yeah.

480
00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:49.579
She said they know several languages.

481
00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:51.420
That's true.

482
00:26:52.059 --> 00:26:54.819
She said they act like they don't know nothing because

483
00:26:54.839 --> 00:26:58.349
the government is trying to capture them and weaponize them.

484
00:26:59.269 --> 00:27:01.309
So they act like they don't know nothing.

485
00:27:01.329 --> 00:27:05.690
That's incredible. Yeah, I would love to talk to her.

486
00:27:06.990 --> 00:27:11.430
Yeah, feel free to pass on my info. Cliff, it's

487
00:27:11.470 --> 00:27:13.960
been a pleasure chatting with you. Chatting with you tonight.

488
00:27:13.980 --> 00:27:17.240
Thank you for sharing what you're experiencing down there. I

489
00:27:17.619 --> 00:27:18.619
appreciate you coming up, man.

490
00:27:19.759 --> 00:27:20.220
Okay.

491
00:27:20.400 --> 00:27:24.220
If you wanted to start watching this lady, she is

492
00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:26.549
on TikTok.

493
00:27:26.970 --> 00:27:27.250
Okay.

494
00:27:27.890 --> 00:27:39.960
And there's no spaces in this. It's friendswithfairies1111. Friendswithfairies1111. Her

495
00:27:40.099 --> 00:27:44.980
real name is April. And she does broadcast sometimes at night.

496
00:27:45.819 --> 00:27:46.059
Okay.

497
00:27:46.099 --> 00:27:46.799
Friends with fairies.

498
00:27:46.940 --> 00:27:47.720
One, one, one, one.

499
00:27:48.180 --> 00:27:49.089
Yeah. All right.

500
00:27:49.109 --> 00:27:49.609
I'll check it out.

501
00:27:49.690 --> 00:27:51.269
Thanks, man. All right. You're welcome.

502
00:27:51.670 --> 00:27:52.009
Perfect.

503
00:27:52.150 --> 00:27:52.549
Have a good night.

504
00:27:53.089 --> 00:27:53.349
All right.

505
00:27:53.369 --> 00:27:57.490
All right.

506
00:27:57.589 --> 00:28:00.039
Cliff had some great things to share.

507
00:28:00.059 --> 00:28:02.259
Hey, ultra scoot. This is Jeremiah.

508
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:04.599
Feel free to share what you've been experiencing out there

509
00:28:04.619 --> 00:28:05.140
in Oregon, man.

510
00:28:05.740 --> 00:28:08.819
Oh, yeah. So it's pretty much the same area. It's

511
00:28:09.220 --> 00:28:13.319
Arch Cave, lower Nahalem River, and then the Highway 47

512
00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:14.119
Vernonia area.

513
00:28:15.420 --> 00:28:17.019
Sorry, was that Arch Cave?

514
00:28:18.299 --> 00:28:18.740
Arch Cave.

515
00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:20.859
Oh, Arch Cave.

516
00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:25.589
So if anybody knows anything about Seaside, Oregon, you just

517
00:28:25.609 --> 00:28:29.950
go south past Canaan Beach. It's a little area over there.

518
00:28:31.809 --> 00:28:35.019
I'm a firefighter paramedic, and so... I'm always, you know,

519
00:28:35.200 --> 00:28:37.579
up late at night running calls and happen to run

520
00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:41.119
a call out there in Arch Cape. And walking up

521
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:43.359
to this person's house, I'm probably about 20 feet away

522
00:28:43.460 --> 00:28:46.000
from the back of the fire engine. And me and

523
00:28:46.019 --> 00:28:48.109
another firefighter, we're talking about the call and trying to

524
00:28:48.140 --> 00:28:51.960
figure out, you know, what's going on with the patient. And, like,

525
00:28:52.220 --> 00:28:55.210
out of the woods, like, I think the east side,

526
00:28:55.230 --> 00:28:58.750
the east side, like, towards Tillamook Forest, something, it just

527
00:28:58.769 --> 00:29:03.130
starts screaming towards us. It doesn't sound like a person.

528
00:29:03.150 --> 00:29:05.140
It sounds a lot louder. It doesn't sound like an owl.

529
00:29:05.759 --> 00:29:08.500
I look at my firefighter. I was like, you hear that?

530
00:29:08.700 --> 00:29:09.980
And he's like, yeah. I was like, all right, well,

531
00:29:10.019 --> 00:29:14.700
let's go inside before whatever that is comes out and starts. And,

532
00:29:14.759 --> 00:29:16.269
you know, we get to see what it actually is.

533
00:29:16.309 --> 00:29:18.509
So went into the call. It didn't have any other

534
00:29:18.549 --> 00:29:22.710
instances after that. That was the most recent one. I

535
00:29:22.750 --> 00:29:25.329
think that was about three and a half, four weeks

536
00:29:25.390 --> 00:29:27.890
ago at this point. I think it was about one

537
00:29:27.910 --> 00:29:29.170
or two in the morning in Arch Cape.

538
00:29:32.289 --> 00:29:35.420
Oh, my goodness. That's very recent, my dude.

539
00:29:35.660 --> 00:29:35.799
Wow.

540
00:29:36.859 --> 00:29:39.990
And then I'll send you– I'll send your email because

541
00:29:40.009 --> 00:29:42.410
I have some audio recordings of the same exact screams

542
00:29:42.430 --> 00:29:49.140
that I heard. September 2023, it was September 30th. It

543
00:29:49.180 --> 00:29:54.259
was actually probably 10 or 11 miles up from Seaside

544
00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:58.049
and Arch Cape area. It's off of Highway 26. Uh, off, uh,

545
00:29:58.190 --> 00:30:02.380
it's the Henry Ryerson campground number five. Uh, it was in,

546
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:05.660
it was in that campground. It was September 30th, about 1am.

547
00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:08.039
I went out there with my dog cause we were gonna,

548
00:30:08.380 --> 00:30:10.079
we were gonna go scout a couple of trails, uh,

549
00:30:10.099 --> 00:30:12.730
get ready for elk hunting that was starting, you know, the,

550
00:30:12.750 --> 00:30:16.529
the following month and everything. Um, I get out there

551
00:30:16.549 --> 00:30:19.309
about nine o'clock. I met another, another group of hunters

552
00:30:19.349 --> 00:30:20.910
that were over there. They were basically doing the same

553
00:30:20.930 --> 00:30:24.650
thing I was. Um, we chit chatted until about 10 30,

554
00:30:24.650 --> 00:30:26.880
nine o'clock or 10 30, 11 o'clock. And then we

555
00:30:26.940 --> 00:30:30.519
decided to go to bed, um, right around 1am. Um,

556
00:30:30.599 --> 00:30:33.019
I have a rooftop tent on the top of my vehicle. Um,

557
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:34.759
so me and my, me and my dog Toby are

558
00:30:34.799 --> 00:30:37.690
up there. We're sleeping. And right around 1am Toby wakes

559
00:30:37.710 --> 00:30:40.130
me up. Toby's, uh, he's a pit bull, not really

560
00:30:40.150 --> 00:30:44.289
afraid of anything. He, he goes hunting in the woods. Um, very,

561
00:30:44.529 --> 00:30:48.730
very nice, very smart dog. Um, he wakes up and

562
00:30:48.769 --> 00:30:50.390
I'm like, okay, it's a little, it's a little chilly out.

563
00:30:50.430 --> 00:30:52.329
Maybe he's just cold. Cause I mean, pit bulls are

564
00:30:52.450 --> 00:30:54.549
short hair. So I open up my sleeping bag and

565
00:30:54.670 --> 00:30:56.849
he just gets, goes towards my feet and sit there

566
00:30:56.869 --> 00:30:59.390
and just start shivering. I was like, my guy, I

567
00:30:59.390 --> 00:31:01.440
was like, buddy, it's not, it's not cold. What are you,

568
00:31:01.470 --> 00:31:03.779
what are you doing? And I was like, okay. So

569
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:06.460
I checked my phone. There's no signal out in Henry Ryerson.

570
00:31:06.500 --> 00:31:09.579
So not really, can't really do anything on my phone

571
00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:12.279
to kind of like lull myself back to sleep. Um,

572
00:31:12.839 --> 00:31:15.380
So I'm just sitting there laying down, hands crossed, trying

573
00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:17.619
to go back to bed. And all of a sudden, again,

574
00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:21.420
the same exact, like, yell or scream. I have a

575
00:31:21.420 --> 00:31:24.579
recording of this. I'll send it to you after all this.

576
00:31:25.880 --> 00:31:29.359
Happens for about four to five minutes. It was on

577
00:31:29.380 --> 00:31:31.480
the east side of my camp. And then across the

578
00:31:31.519 --> 00:31:36.089
Nehalem River, there was another one. Same exact scream, yell,

579
00:31:36.109 --> 00:31:39.390
same intensity, yelling back towards the east side of my camp.

580
00:31:40.849 --> 00:31:44.630
So I'm just like, oh, that's... That's weird. And, you know,

581
00:31:45.210 --> 00:31:48.269
I was a little startled. But it's one in the morning.

582
00:31:48.289 --> 00:31:50.819
It's just me and my dog. I was like, oh,

583
00:31:50.839 --> 00:31:52.319
I'm not going to shut up my I'm not going

584
00:31:52.339 --> 00:31:53.960
to shut up my camp. I'm just not going to

585
00:31:54.400 --> 00:31:55.920
I'm just not going to do anything in the morning.

586
00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:58.099
So as soon as soon as time comes up and

587
00:31:58.119 --> 00:31:59.819
I make sure that I can get out of there,

588
00:31:59.839 --> 00:32:02.819
I did. But nothing nothing else really happened that night

589
00:32:04.799 --> 00:32:08.509
in this same area known as like Henry Ryerson campground

590
00:32:08.529 --> 00:32:11.849
number five or the lower Nehalem River campground. I've had

591
00:32:11.930 --> 00:32:16.880
rocks thrown at me. I've had things walk up to

592
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:19.180
the back of my tent and slap the back of

593
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:20.440
my tent while I'm sleeping.

594
00:32:20.460 --> 00:32:21.700
No way.

595
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:24.980
Yeah, there's just a whole nest of activity.

596
00:32:25.000 --> 00:32:30.789
So I'm looking on a map right now. Yeah, definitely....

597
00:32:33.609 --> 00:32:36.450
I think I've talked to a few people like down

598
00:32:36.650 --> 00:32:40.390
South of that in Tillamook state forest, but like way South,

599
00:32:40.410 --> 00:32:44.250
but that's really interesting. So Henry Ryerson definitely keep that

600
00:32:44.269 --> 00:32:44.809
in mind, man.

601
00:32:44.829 --> 00:32:48.029
So if you, so if you follow lower to Halem river,

602
00:32:48.109 --> 00:32:51.710
which is where Henry Ryerson is, that road lower to

603
00:32:51.750 --> 00:32:55.230
Halem river follows, goes straight to the heart of the

604
00:32:55.250 --> 00:32:57.930
Tillamook forest. And there are tons of logging roads off

605
00:32:58.009 --> 00:33:01.880
left and right. Um, like if you, if you go

606
00:33:01.900 --> 00:33:03.339
and talk to any of the people out there, they

607
00:33:03.380 --> 00:33:06.640
say saddle mountain, which is very near that area, just

608
00:33:06.680 --> 00:33:08.829
on the other side of the road. Uh, there's a

609
00:33:08.869 --> 00:33:10.809
bunch of weird stuff that happens out there. Cause I'm,

610
00:33:11.690 --> 00:33:13.549
you know, I, like I said, I'm a fire fighter paramedic.

611
00:33:13.589 --> 00:33:16.190
And so whenever I transport patients out there, that's usually

612
00:33:16.670 --> 00:33:18.130
all the people that live out there. I'm saying, Hey,

613
00:33:18.549 --> 00:33:21.049
you see anything weird in the woods? And a lot

614
00:33:21.069 --> 00:33:23.470
of them are like, yeah, we don't mess with it.

615
00:33:23.509 --> 00:33:24.289
It doesn't mess with us.

616
00:33:24.349 --> 00:33:28.759
So, so you are very rare breed, my friend, because

617
00:33:28.859 --> 00:33:33.190
you are, uh, It sounds like you're definitely also into

618
00:33:33.210 --> 00:33:36.930
Bigfoot as well, but you got that connection where you're

619
00:33:36.950 --> 00:33:38.930
a firefighter, paramedic.

620
00:33:38.990 --> 00:33:40.190
That's really, really cool.

621
00:33:40.210 --> 00:33:42.670
Oh, appreciate that. Wow.

622
00:33:42.769 --> 00:33:46.230
Yeah, if you can send me that stuff through the

623
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:48.390
email I have on screen here, it would be great

624
00:33:48.410 --> 00:33:50.430
to have your contact.

625
00:33:50.990 --> 00:33:55.440
Yeah. So the audio is going to be from Henry Ryerson.

626
00:33:57.160 --> 00:33:58.819
You'll have to put on your headphones if you're listening

627
00:33:58.859 --> 00:33:59.140
to it.

628
00:33:59.140 --> 00:33:59.220
Okay.

629
00:34:00.500 --> 00:34:02.319
Uh, cause it's me moving around in my sleeping bag

630
00:34:02.339 --> 00:34:04.480
and then you'll hear the yelling, uh, back and forth.

631
00:34:04.539 --> 00:34:06.440
And then I'll send you like a little, a little

632
00:34:06.640 --> 00:34:09.960
footprint from like a class a sighting. I had like

633
00:34:10.019 --> 00:34:13.840
three or four years prior around, uh, around the Vernonia

634
00:34:13.880 --> 00:34:19.320
stub Stewart area. And, uh, I was leaving stub Stewart after, um, using,

635
00:34:19.340 --> 00:34:22.699
cause I was working out there and I went into the, um,

636
00:34:22.909 --> 00:34:25.670
sub Stewart state parks. I know they have bathrooms open

637
00:34:25.670 --> 00:34:27.449
24 seven stop, went to the bathroom. And as I'm

638
00:34:27.489 --> 00:34:31.679
heading back towards Portland where I live, um, I see, like,

639
00:34:31.820 --> 00:34:35.320
eyeshine probably about, like, eight feet up. And I was like, oh,

640
00:34:35.900 --> 00:34:38.900
that's kind of tall to be a raccoon. That's an

641
00:34:38.920 --> 00:34:43.670
awfully big raccoon. And then I see, like, two eyes.

642
00:34:43.690 --> 00:34:46.010
And then I see, like, whatever it is turn its head.

643
00:34:46.730 --> 00:34:48.110
And this time I only see one eye. And then

644
00:34:48.150 --> 00:34:50.610
I see two eyes again. And there's, like, two sets

645
00:34:50.650 --> 00:34:53.199
of eyes. So there was two of whatever I saw.

646
00:34:53.739 --> 00:34:57.340
They were looking back past, like, back away from Stewart

647
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.340
State Park. Like kind of saying, like, hey, there's something

648
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:02.639
here and kind of like telling whatever was coming to

649
00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:06.179
wait before we passed. My girlfriend at the time saw

650
00:35:06.199 --> 00:35:09.460
it and she freaked out. And then so I went back.

651
00:35:09.800 --> 00:35:12.469
I went back the next day. And whereabouts I saw

652
00:35:12.909 --> 00:35:15.269
the head of these or the eye shine, which was

653
00:35:15.849 --> 00:35:17.530
which was like your last guy was saying it was

654
00:35:17.570 --> 00:35:20.269
like it wasn't red. It was like an orange, just

655
00:35:20.429 --> 00:35:25.639
amberish yellow more than anything. Right. And yeah, I saw

656
00:35:25.679 --> 00:35:27.079
it when I saw it. I was like, oh, hey, look,

657
00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:31.300
there is the like the five toes and like the

658
00:35:31.619 --> 00:35:33.980
whatever the whatever the little front pad of the foot

659
00:35:34.019 --> 00:35:36.619
is called. I wasn't able to cast it because it

660
00:35:36.639 --> 00:35:38.820
was in like some really soft mud. But I was like, oh,

661
00:35:38.860 --> 00:35:42.139
that's that's cool. So I took a photo and then

662
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:43.539
just been sitting on all this evidence.

663
00:35:43.659 --> 00:35:47.539
And oh, my goodness. Have you ever gotten up to Rainier,

664
00:35:47.619 --> 00:35:48.699
Oregon area?

665
00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:49.280
Yeah.

666
00:35:49.599 --> 00:35:53.280
Have you gone and looked out, looked, looked around in

667
00:35:53.300 --> 00:35:54.179
the woods out there at all?

668
00:35:54.820 --> 00:35:57.800
Uh, yeah, nothing. I mean, I haven't had anything experience

669
00:35:57.840 --> 00:36:01.429
over there. Um, I, so like I said, I work

670
00:36:01.610 --> 00:36:06.210
in like the Clatsop, Clatsop County, which encompasses Clatsop Forest, uh,

671
00:36:06.550 --> 00:36:11.880
off of like 202 Highway 26. Um, and then parts

672
00:36:11.940 --> 00:36:15.239
of like Highway 4 up in like Pacific County and Washington. Um,

673
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:18.619
bunch of, bunch of sightings and a bunch of like

674
00:36:18.719 --> 00:36:21.880
just personal reports from people, um, um, that I've talked

675
00:36:21.900 --> 00:36:23.559
to out there. Cause again, like all, a lot of

676
00:36:23.579 --> 00:36:25.860
these people are just older and they're loggers or they've

677
00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:28.590
been hunting out in the same area for, you know, 30,

678
00:36:28.570 --> 00:36:32.949
40 years. Um, there was a patient I had out

679
00:36:32.969 --> 00:36:38.030
in Vernonia actually. She, um, she had, she was actually

680
00:36:38.050 --> 00:36:40.269
super fun. We'd, uh, we'd have to go to her

681
00:36:40.309 --> 00:36:42.360
a few, you know, a few times a month, but

682
00:36:42.389 --> 00:36:45.340
she was a very level headed down to earth. Um,

683
00:36:46.139 --> 00:36:47.460
you know, I asked her the same question. I was like,

684
00:36:47.480 --> 00:36:49.219
have you ever seen Bigfoot out here? Cause it's an

685
00:36:49.260 --> 00:36:52.889
hour and a half transport to the hospital. And she goes, oh, yeah.

686
00:36:53.550 --> 00:36:55.760
Like my barn is 100 yards away from my front

687
00:36:55.780 --> 00:36:58.820
door and it's screaming all the time out there. And

688
00:36:58.840 --> 00:37:00.400
I was like, oh, do you go and look at it?

689
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:04.519
She goes, no, I'm not dumb. And I was like,

690
00:37:04.980 --> 00:37:07.039
all right, fair question. That makes sense.

691
00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:08.760
Holy mackerel.

692
00:37:09.769 --> 00:37:11.389
If you ever come back here, I'll put my contact

693
00:37:11.429 --> 00:37:13.210
info in there. So if you ever go back there,

694
00:37:13.250 --> 00:37:14.929
I can show you, if you ever come back to

695
00:37:14.969 --> 00:37:18.469
this area, um, I can meet you. Uh, and I can,

696
00:37:18.610 --> 00:37:20.380
I can show you all the areas that I'm telling

697
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:21.500
you about or that I'm talking about.

698
00:37:21.539 --> 00:37:25.599
Wow. I, um, so last year or actually this, this

699
00:37:25.659 --> 00:37:28.789
last August, July, I was in, uh, the Willamette national

700
00:37:28.829 --> 00:37:32.860
forest down in Oak Ridge for like a week. And, uh,

701
00:37:34.340 --> 00:37:36.440
I was like, maybe I'll get to travel other places.

702
00:37:36.539 --> 00:37:39.159
It's like, nah, dude, like I was stuck in that

703
00:37:39.219 --> 00:37:41.159
town because there was so much going on in.

704
00:37:41.500 --> 00:37:43.340
That small town.

705
00:37:43.880 --> 00:37:44.539
It was wild.

706
00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:47.489
I mean, OK, I sound kind of like a movie villain,

707
00:37:47.829 --> 00:37:53.269
but a bunch of my shift mates, because we do 4896s,

708
00:37:53.750 --> 00:37:55.869
and so a bunch of us are really into outdoors

709
00:37:56.090 --> 00:37:59.019
and we like to go hiking and camping and stuff

710
00:37:59.039 --> 00:38:03.349
like that. And so... The last, uh, this, this year

711
00:38:03.489 --> 00:38:05.650
I'm choosing where we get to go and I'm choosing

712
00:38:05.710 --> 00:38:06.449
Oak Ridge, Oregon.

713
00:38:07.630 --> 00:38:07.969
Yes.

714
00:38:08.610 --> 00:38:08.929
Yeah.

715
00:38:09.449 --> 00:38:13.900
I'm not telling them why I'm choosing it, but so

716
00:38:14.360 --> 00:38:17.719
I bought a nice, like Sony, uh, like a Sony

717
00:38:18.059 --> 00:38:21.719
4k camera, uh, cost me like 3,500 bucks. It's supposed

718
00:38:21.780 --> 00:38:23.480
to be like one of the best ones for like low, uh,

719
00:38:24.340 --> 00:38:27.420
for like video stabilization and like low light, uh, recording.

720
00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:32.840
So who knows? We'll be out there for about five days.

721
00:38:33.780 --> 00:38:37.869
Please keep my– well, you'll have my email because you're

722
00:38:37.889 --> 00:38:40.650
going to send the stuff. But I really want to

723
00:38:40.929 --> 00:38:46.929
hear if anything happens because, yeah, there was stuff that

724
00:38:46.969 --> 00:38:50.190
happened big time out there. There were sightings. There was

725
00:38:50.269 --> 00:38:51.150
audio captured.

726
00:38:51.449 --> 00:38:52.690
It was nuts.

727
00:38:52.710 --> 00:38:54.590
I'll also send you– so I also have a couple

728
00:38:54.630 --> 00:38:58.429
audio recorders and I'm kind of– I have a 3D printer,

729
00:38:58.469 --> 00:39:00.719
so I'm kind of fabbing up. If I pick up

730
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:04.289
something to where I can stick my audio recorder onto

731
00:39:04.329 --> 00:39:08.130
a 60,000 milliamp battery, which means I can record up

732
00:39:08.230 --> 00:39:11.389
to 100 days like continuously for 24 hours, I'd have

733
00:39:11.409 --> 00:39:11.889
to go up.

734
00:39:12.130 --> 00:39:12.530
Oh, wow.

735
00:39:12.789 --> 00:39:14.730
I'd have to go up once a week to replace

736
00:39:14.769 --> 00:39:17.909
the SD card because that's the only limit to my–

737
00:39:18.309 --> 00:39:20.289
that's the only limit to these recording devices right now.

738
00:39:20.989 --> 00:39:24.409
So anything I find, I'll send you over the audio

739
00:39:24.409 --> 00:39:27.179
files and I'll send you any any evidence that i

740
00:39:27.219 --> 00:39:29.519
have if if you or after all this.

741
00:39:30.519 --> 00:39:32.679
And do you use onyx i would imagine.

742
00:39:32.400 --> 00:39:35.780
Oh yeah uh okay so you like mark yeah yeah

745
00:39:42.250 --> 00:39:43.329

live in the Portland area. So if you need any

750

All right, dude. Yeah, definitely reach out. Thank you so much, man.

00:39:59.000 --> 00:39:59.960
All right.

Have a good day, bud.

Bye. Later.

755
00:40:05.139 --> 00:40:05.969
That was amazing.

756
00:40:06.170 --> 00:40:10.130
What a great short interview. Let's see if– thank you

757
00:40:10.150 --> 00:40:11.349
for coming up, UltraScoot.

758
00:40:11.369 --> 00:40:12.329
Hey, Lori, how's it going?

759
00:40:12.369 --> 00:40:12.489
Hi.

760
00:40:12.530 --> 00:40:12.610
Hi.

761
00:40:12.989 --> 00:40:13.210
Hi.

762
00:40:14.090 --> 00:40:14.300
Good.

763
00:40:14.389 --> 00:40:17.289
It sounds like you've had an interesting thing happen in

764
00:40:17.329 --> 00:40:19.389
the Howell Island area of Missouri.

765
00:40:19.409 --> 00:40:19.949
Is that correct?

766
00:40:20.409 --> 00:40:24.909
Right. That's in Chesterfield, Missouri. It's West St. Louis County.

767
00:40:25.949 --> 00:40:27.449
It's on the Missouri River.

768
00:40:29.909 --> 00:40:30.530
Yeah.

769
00:40:30.809 --> 00:40:32.969
I would love to hear about that if you wouldn't

770
00:40:33.010 --> 00:40:33.610
mind sharing.

771
00:40:34.199 --> 00:40:34.489
Sure.

772
00:40:34.940 --> 00:40:39.679
I took them into the park. It's a park. It's

773
00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:42.280
an island that's in the Missouri River. and it's been

774
00:40:42.320 --> 00:40:47.179
turned over to the state for a state park. Years ago,

775
00:40:47.219 --> 00:40:49.739
it was owned by an old man, and my husband

776
00:40:49.780 --> 00:40:52.590
as a boy used to go there and hunt. It's

777
00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:56.949
full of wildlife, boar, a lot of wild boars.

778
00:40:56.690 --> 00:40:57.610
On there, deer.

779
00:40:58.469 --> 00:41:04.650
So it's a perfect place for Bigfoot. So we drove in, parked,

780
00:41:04.710 --> 00:41:07.409
and you go across the causeway, and then you walk

781
00:41:07.469 --> 00:41:12.179
a trail. And we were walking the trail, And we

782
00:41:12.219 --> 00:41:15.159
were probably between a half and three quarters of a

783
00:41:15.199 --> 00:41:19.710
mile from the parking area. And we were walking on

784
00:41:19.730 --> 00:41:22.530
this trail. And, you know, I stopped suddenly because I

785
00:41:22.650 --> 00:41:26.639
knew without a doubt that we were being looked at.

786
00:41:26.659 --> 00:41:30.400
And I just had the sense that my, you know,

787
00:41:30.420 --> 00:41:33.579
my hair on my arm was standing on end. And

788
00:41:33.599 --> 00:41:38.610
I thought. A conservation agent was spying on us, so

789
00:41:38.630 --> 00:41:41.070
I'm kind of looking around to see if I can

790
00:41:41.110 --> 00:41:47.239
see this conservation agent. And up ahead of us, maybe

791
00:41:47.239 --> 00:41:52.619
20 yards ahead, the path forked. And in between the

792
00:41:52.679 --> 00:41:56.539
two forks there was this weed grown. It's an herb,

793
00:41:56.579 --> 00:42:00.360
and it kind of looks like bamboo. And it was

794
00:42:00.400 --> 00:42:02.880
growing there, and I looked, and down low to the

795
00:42:02.920 --> 00:42:06.559
ground was this face in the bamboo looking right at us.

796
00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:10.920
And the eyes and my eyes made contact, and I

797
00:42:11.039 --> 00:42:14.269
looked at it, and it looked at me. And at

798
00:42:14.329 --> 00:42:17.030
first I thought it was a human being because it

799
00:42:17.070 --> 00:42:20.429
was so human looking in the face. But then I

800
00:42:20.510 --> 00:42:25.230
noticed the skin was a really, really strange color, and

801
00:42:25.369 --> 00:42:28.579
it was a very large face. And then I noticed

802
00:42:28.639 --> 00:42:32.050
that it had a really long nose. I think the

803
00:42:32.110 --> 00:42:36.949
word is Aquilian or kind of like a Roman nose,

804
00:42:37.010 --> 00:42:40.449
a real long nose. And it had a gash going

805
00:42:40.489 --> 00:42:44.309
across the top of the nose, a terrible gash. And

806
00:42:44.329 --> 00:42:48.550
the nose was pushed over to the... facing me. It

807
00:42:48.610 --> 00:42:52.070
was pushed over to the right side. So it would

808
00:42:52.090 --> 00:42:54.469
have been like on the left side of it, I guess.

809
00:42:54.840 --> 00:42:56.780
It looked like it had run into the side of

810
00:42:56.840 --> 00:43:00.539
a truck or something. It was smashed over. And I

811
00:43:00.579 --> 00:43:04.699
could tell that it had two black eyes. And I thought,

812
00:43:05.139 --> 00:43:08.820
you know, that's got to hurt. And then all of

813
00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:10.380
a sudden it just hit me. This is not a

814
00:43:10.420 --> 00:43:15.500
human being I'm looking at. And I got really scared.

815
00:43:15.519 --> 00:43:18.469
Because I'm like I said, at least a half a

816
00:43:18.489 --> 00:43:21.369
mile from my truck. I'm with two really small kids.

817
00:43:22.070 --> 00:43:24.590
My son was about four and my daughter was six.

818
00:43:25.409 --> 00:43:29.699
And I thought, I'm out here. I'm not armed. My

819
00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:31.699
kids are small. What am I going to do? So

820
00:43:32.820 --> 00:43:33.940
I said, turn around.

821
00:43:33.960 --> 00:43:35.280
We're going back to the truck now.

822
00:43:35.300 --> 00:43:38.460
And they're like, what? I said, turn around and start marching.

823
00:43:38.500 --> 00:43:44.840
We're going back to the truck. And it got up

824
00:43:44.920 --> 00:43:49.199
and stood up and walked out into the path. And

825
00:43:49.260 --> 00:43:52.730
I'm looking at this thing and I'm thinking, and it

826
00:43:52.769 --> 00:43:55.929
just sounds crazy now, but I'm thinking, okay, I'm sizing

827
00:43:55.969 --> 00:43:58.659
this thing up because I figure, okay, I'm going to

828
00:43:58.699 --> 00:44:00.960
have to take this thing on. I've got my two

829
00:44:01.000 --> 00:44:04.909
small kids here. I'm going to have to take on

830
00:44:04.929 --> 00:44:07.289
this thing and I'm measuring it up. And I figured

831
00:44:07.329 --> 00:44:09.610
if I went up, ran up to it and threw

832
00:44:09.650 --> 00:44:12.010
my arms around it, I would come to it. The

833
00:44:12.050 --> 00:44:14.840
top of my head would come to its solar plexus

834
00:44:15.380 --> 00:44:18.860
and I'm five, nine. So this thing was probably seven

835
00:44:18.900 --> 00:44:22.400
feet tall is what I'm thinking. And it stood there

836
00:44:22.420 --> 00:44:24.719
and its arms were out of its side. And it

837
00:44:24.760 --> 00:44:28.300
was kind of doing that flex thing. I think you

838
00:44:28.320 --> 00:44:30.079
call it, you know, kind of taking its arms and

839
00:44:30.099 --> 00:44:33.889
going like this, you know, in and out. And I go,

840
00:44:33.949 --> 00:44:35.269
turn around and march. Come on, let's go, let's go,

841
00:44:35.289 --> 00:44:38.349
let's go. Move, move. And they're really confused. You know,

842
00:44:38.369 --> 00:44:40.329
they might have been a little older. He was maybe

843
00:44:40.829 --> 00:44:44.039
five or six, and so she would have been about eight.

844
00:44:44.059 --> 00:44:47.860
Because we turn around, we start heading back, and my

845
00:44:47.900 --> 00:44:49.360
daughter goes, Mama, look.

846
00:44:49.980 --> 00:44:50.760
Mama, look.

847
00:44:51.300 --> 00:44:52.550
And I said, I don't want to look.

848
00:44:52.590 --> 00:44:53.110
Let's go.

849
00:44:53.150 --> 00:44:55.150
She goes, but look, look, Mama, look. I said, yeah,

850
00:44:55.230 --> 00:44:58.250
I see it. I see it. It didn't seem to

851
00:44:58.289 --> 00:45:00.900
want anything to do with us. Now, I saw it,

852
00:45:00.969 --> 00:45:03.409
but I didn't see any boobs. I didn't see anything.

853
00:45:03.429 --> 00:45:05.530
I could not tell if it was a male or female.

854
00:45:06.570 --> 00:45:08.550
But looking back on it, I kind of got the

855
00:45:08.610 --> 00:45:12.840
impression that it was a female. And I can't really

856
00:45:12.880 --> 00:45:15.260
tell you why, but the way it was looking at

857
00:45:15.300 --> 00:45:18.139
my kids, it seemed to be interested in my kids,

858
00:45:18.420 --> 00:45:22.989
which really scared me. So that was it. It went

859
00:45:23.250 --> 00:45:26.269
and continued across the path and down into the woods,

860
00:45:26.349 --> 00:45:29.300
which was really swampy because it's right in the middle

861
00:45:29.320 --> 00:45:33.400
of the Missouri River. And, excuse me, it disappeared into

862
00:45:33.900 --> 00:45:38.079
the brush. And we went home. We were all excited.

863
00:45:38.219 --> 00:45:41.500
And their father was there. And we went in and said.

864
00:45:42.090 --> 00:45:43.989
We saw a Bigfoot.

865
00:45:44.010 --> 00:45:46.829
We saw a Bigfoot. He's like, I've hunted that island

866
00:45:46.889 --> 00:45:50.090
as a kid. There's no Bigfoot there. No, you didn't

867
00:45:50.130 --> 00:45:52.710
see a Bigfoot. You saw something. Maybe a bear. Bears

868
00:45:52.769 --> 00:45:56.530
are moving back in. No, no, this was a Bigfoot. No, no,

869
00:45:56.650 --> 00:46:00.570
you didn't. So two or three nights later, 6 o'clock

870
00:46:00.639 --> 00:46:04.559
news comes on, and he's sitting there. And the news reporter, St.

871
00:46:04.599 --> 00:46:09.000
Louis News Report, Channel 2, said, Reportings of Bigfoot being

872
00:46:09.079 --> 00:46:13.349
sighted on Howell Island in Chesterfield County. Boy, his mouth

873
00:46:13.389 --> 00:46:16.289
dropped open. He said, well, I'll be damned. Yep.

874
00:46:17.050 --> 00:46:18.010
What year is this again?

875
00:46:22.610 --> 00:46:24.440
And the reason I was there was because I was

876
00:46:24.519 --> 00:46:27.780
having heart surgery the next day. And it was going

877
00:46:27.820 --> 00:46:32.360
to be really... What? We hadn't married in.

878
00:46:32.480 --> 00:46:32.699
No.

879
00:46:33.260 --> 00:46:43.260
It was... Jake was 99. So this was 2000 and... eight,

880
00:46:43.360 --> 00:46:47.219
maybe 2006, 2008, somewhere back in there.

881
00:46:47.929 --> 00:46:48.199
Okay.

882
00:46:49.670 --> 00:46:54.110
And, um, I've been a little earlier. I can't remember

883
00:46:54.150 --> 00:46:57.909
right now. Um, yeah. So I wanted to have a

884
00:46:57.949 --> 00:47:01.110
really good memory with my kids because of, you know,

885
00:47:01.409 --> 00:47:03.489
I didn't know what the next day was going to bring.

886
00:47:04.010 --> 00:47:04.429
I got it.

887
00:47:04.650 --> 00:47:04.949
Wow.

888
00:47:06.250 --> 00:47:10.849
We went back, um, And I wanted to show my

889
00:47:10.889 --> 00:47:14.949
husband where this thing was and where that fork is.

890
00:47:14.969 --> 00:47:20.119
And those bamboo type rushes were laying there. They were

891
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:24.280
all smashed down. And I said, that's where it was.

892
00:47:24.300 --> 00:47:25.920
It was close to the ground. I said, I think

893
00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:30.300
it was laying in those weeds. And we disturbed it

894
00:47:30.320 --> 00:47:32.530
because it was so close to the ground when we

895
00:47:32.619 --> 00:47:35.860
saw it. And he's like, well, deer do that. Deer

896
00:47:35.900 --> 00:47:38.380
lay down. And I said, yeah, but we didn't see

897
00:47:38.480 --> 00:47:40.389
a deer. We saw this. And this is where it is.

898
00:47:40.679 --> 00:47:43.730
And this is all smashed down. So then my son

899
00:47:43.769 --> 00:47:46.230
starts waving his hand, look at this, look at this.

900
00:47:46.690 --> 00:47:50.969
And there were footprints. And they were huge. And they

901
00:47:51.030 --> 00:47:57.659
were really huge. And I remember that it was like

902
00:47:57.739 --> 00:48:00.699
in late February because we were having really nice weather

903
00:48:00.739 --> 00:48:03.380
for the time of the year. But, you know, when

904
00:48:03.420 --> 00:48:05.500
you step on the ground, it was still cold enough.

905
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:08.360
You did not leave any kind of track. None of

906
00:48:08.420 --> 00:48:11.039
us did. But my husband with his boots on, me

907
00:48:11.059 --> 00:48:13.639
with my boots on, no tracks. But these things were

908
00:48:13.800 --> 00:48:17.809
smashed down into the dirt. It was heavy enough that

909
00:48:17.829 --> 00:48:21.269
it was leaving these tracks. And we figured they were

910
00:48:21.409 --> 00:48:25.050
probably 14 inches long. We were looking at them. And

911
00:48:25.090 --> 00:48:26.760
I thought, okay, we've got to come back here with

912
00:48:26.880 --> 00:48:30.619
some plaster and and make a cast of these because

913
00:48:30.639 --> 00:48:33.159
nobody's going to believe the size of these prints. So

914
00:48:33.179 --> 00:48:36.530
we went home after that. And that night it rained

915
00:48:36.630 --> 00:48:39.250
so heavy. And I thought those, those are, and then

916
00:48:39.289 --> 00:48:42.409
the causeway to the, uh, Island, you know, went over.

917
00:48:42.429 --> 00:48:45.250
And so we weren't able to go back for, you know,

918
00:48:45.570 --> 00:48:47.989
probably a month or so. And I haven't been back

919
00:48:48.710 --> 00:48:49.969
once or twice since then.

920
00:48:53.869 --> 00:48:56.230
How much of, how much of it would you say

921
00:48:56.269 --> 00:48:57.190
was covered with hair?

922
00:48:58.409 --> 00:49:02.010
All of it. except for its face okay it's its

923
00:49:02.110 --> 00:49:06.989
face and um it was a different the skin was

924
00:49:07.150 --> 00:49:10.090
a kind of a i say it's like army khaki

925
00:49:10.150 --> 00:49:15.349
color skin kind of a greenish gray skin and it

926
00:49:15.389 --> 00:49:17.829
had a long it didn't have a monkey nose or

927
00:49:17.929 --> 00:49:19.929
white dust it didn't have that at all had a

928
00:49:20.019 --> 00:49:23.960
long thin nose coming down its face didn't have a

929
00:49:24.019 --> 00:49:27.980
mustache didn't have a a beard didn't not that i

930
00:49:28.019 --> 00:49:30.440
could see it had it was the face was bare

931
00:49:30.480 --> 00:49:32.630
but that's the only bare part i saw on.

932
00:49:32.590 --> 00:49:36.050
It that is so unique um do you remember any

933
00:49:36.070 --> 00:49:38.210
details about the mouth at all or did you see

934
00:49:38.230 --> 00:49:38.869
any teeth.

935
00:49:39.610 --> 00:49:44.010
It had a wide mouth, but the lips were thin.

936
00:49:44.030 --> 00:49:50.179
A long, wide, thin mouth. Very human looking. Didn't see

937
00:49:50.199 --> 00:49:50.780
any teeth.

938
00:49:54.639 --> 00:49:59.920
Any emotions like aggressive or like teeth being bared or

939
00:50:00.360 --> 00:50:01.090
anything like that?

940
00:50:01.590 --> 00:50:03.730
No, no teeth being bared. But when it stood up

941
00:50:04.309 --> 00:50:07.269
from its down low position, it was only a couple

942
00:50:07.329 --> 00:50:10.949
inches off the ground. And I had turned around with

943
00:50:10.989 --> 00:50:13.130
the kids because I thought, well, they haven't seen the

944
00:50:13.170 --> 00:50:16.449
face yet. I don't want them to see this. And

945
00:50:16.489 --> 00:50:18.980
we started walking back and my daughter turned around and

946
00:50:19.019 --> 00:50:22.019
it was in the middle of the path looking at us,

947
00:50:22.300 --> 00:50:25.480
its arms down, but kind of flexing its arms. I mean,

948
00:50:25.500 --> 00:50:28.780
it was just standing there clear as a bell. And

949
00:50:29.800 --> 00:50:33.039
besides for its arms moving, it was just not moving

950
00:50:33.079 --> 00:50:37.780
at all. No aggression on its face. No, no mouthing anything. No.

951
00:50:42.030 --> 00:50:43.389
What kind of head shape did it have?

952
00:50:45.690 --> 00:50:57.780
I'm trying to remember. It didn't have– I've seen pictures

953
00:50:58.079 --> 00:51:03.119
of Bigfoot that have those misshapen heads with a knot

954
00:51:03.179 --> 00:51:06.880
in the back. This did not have that. This was

955
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:08.460
so very human-looking.

956
00:51:08.480 --> 00:51:08.699
Interesting.

957
00:51:09.300 --> 00:51:12.440
Besides for the hair covering it, and being extremely large.

958
00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:15.179
I mean, the arms were as big as my thighs.

959
00:51:16.360 --> 00:51:17.179
You know, it was huge.

960
00:51:17.239 --> 00:51:21.400
The legs were like tree trunks. It was really massive.

961
00:51:21.760 --> 00:51:26.460
Its chest and, you know, its torso was like a barrel,

962
00:51:28.159 --> 00:51:32.300
like a huge barrel with these tree trunks coming out

963
00:51:32.340 --> 00:51:36.079
of it and just a normal, it had hair on

964
00:51:36.139 --> 00:51:39.159
it so I couldn't see the neck. And, you know,

965
00:51:39.280 --> 00:51:41.239
if it had ears, I couldn't see those. I don't

966
00:51:41.260 --> 00:51:42.239
remember any ears.

967
00:51:44.760 --> 00:51:46.780
Did you get a good look at the eyes at all?

968
00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:52.530
I saw the eyes when I first made contact and

969
00:51:52.550 --> 00:51:55.570
it was on the ground. And that's what made me

970
00:51:55.630 --> 00:51:58.469
think it was a human being at first is the

971
00:51:58.710 --> 00:52:01.690
eyes looking right into my eyes. I mean, we were

972
00:52:01.750 --> 00:52:05.719
looking right at each other and they were big, but

973
00:52:05.760 --> 00:52:07.079
they were human looking eyes.

974
00:52:08.780 --> 00:52:10.820
Were there any whites to the eyes at all, or

975
00:52:10.860 --> 00:52:11.980
was it all just one color?

976
00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:16.119
No, I believe there was whites. I thought it was

977
00:52:16.139 --> 00:52:19.559
a person at first.

978
00:52:21.139 --> 00:52:24.280
Roger's got a good question. Were the hands similar to ours,

979
00:52:24.360 --> 00:52:26.320
or did you notice any differences?

980
00:52:27.579 --> 00:52:30.159
When I'm thinking back, it was standing there. That's the

981
00:52:30.199 --> 00:52:36.329
only time I saw its hands and its feet. They looked...

982
00:52:37.059 --> 00:52:42.230
I mean, I would say he had five digits. And

983
00:52:42.269 --> 00:52:47.530
everything was extremely large compared to our skinny little fingers.

984
00:52:51.170 --> 00:52:52.550
Hair on the back of the hands.

985
00:52:53.489 --> 00:52:58.369
Yep. Yeah. When I think back on it, my main

986
00:52:58.489 --> 00:53:02.929
thought back then in confronting this thing was, You know,

987
00:53:02.949 --> 00:53:04.610
my God, I'm going to have to fight this thing.

988
00:53:04.750 --> 00:53:06.690
I'm going to have to protect my kids. I don't

989
00:53:06.730 --> 00:53:10.760
have a chance against this thing. I can maybe fight

990
00:53:10.800 --> 00:53:14.219
it off for a couple seconds while my kids run.

991
00:53:14.559 --> 00:53:16.639
But will they run? No, my kids aren't going to run.

992
00:53:16.699 --> 00:53:17.599
They're not going to leave me.

993
00:53:18.369 --> 00:53:20.530
I mean, if I could hand my daughter my car keys,

994
00:53:20.880 --> 00:53:22.619
have her run back to the truck, what good is

995
00:53:22.659 --> 00:53:24.139
that going to do? She's not going to be able

996
00:53:24.179 --> 00:53:28.000
to do anything. All this stuff in nanoseconds is rushing

997
00:53:28.039 --> 00:53:31.340
through my mind, thinking, how am I going to keep

998
00:53:31.400 --> 00:53:33.760
this thing away from my children? Right.

999
00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:34.949
Wow.

1000
00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:35.739
Oh, man.

1001
00:53:36.329 --> 00:53:39.949
That is just all that I was thinking about is,

1002
00:53:40.469 --> 00:53:43.360
how am I going to take this thing on? And

1003
00:53:43.400 --> 00:53:45.460
I don't know if it knew what I was thinking,

1004
00:53:45.500 --> 00:53:47.260
but it didn't show any aggression.

1005
00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:47.800
It didn't.

1006
00:53:48.300 --> 00:53:49.159
It just walked off.

1007
00:53:50.340 --> 00:53:53.159
It probably knew you were one that it was not

1008
00:53:53.199 --> 00:53:56.780
going to mess with. Another question about the hands from

1009
00:53:56.800 --> 00:54:00.679
the comments. The palm of the hand, was it a

1010
00:54:00.760 --> 00:54:04.219
longer palm or kind of the same way our hands

1011
00:54:04.260 --> 00:54:04.800
were set up?

1012
00:54:05.260 --> 00:54:08.800
The arms were long. I noticed that the arms were

1013
00:54:09.050 --> 00:54:14.690
longer than like ours were. are. I, I remember that,

1014
00:54:15.030 --> 00:54:18.090
but I, I, I was so scared and so worried

1015
00:54:18.110 --> 00:54:20.630
about my kids that I wasn't constant. I just wanted

1016
00:54:20.670 --> 00:54:22.230
to get away. That's all I wanted.

1017
00:54:22.250 --> 00:54:24.900
Oh, I, I totally, I totally get it.

1018
00:54:24.929 --> 00:54:26.409
That's really, man.

1019
00:54:26.449 --> 00:54:29.530
That's a, that's interesting. Have you ever reached out to

1020
00:54:29.550 --> 00:54:34.190
Miguel from Sasquatch theory? No, he is a gentleman who

1021
00:54:34.570 --> 00:54:39.110
he focuses primarily on encounters from Missouri. He's a, he's

1022
00:54:39.130 --> 00:54:42.030
a guy down there, but check out his YouTube channel.

1023
00:54:42.949 --> 00:54:48.210
and I believe his contact is on there, but, um, uh, he, yeah,

1024
00:54:48.269 --> 00:54:50.730
he's the, he's pretty much the Missouri guy, but, uh,

1025
00:54:51.409 --> 00:54:53.150
thank you so much for hopping on.

1026
00:54:53.869 --> 00:54:54.710
He's a younger guy.

1027
00:54:54.730 --> 00:54:57.349
Yep. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. I think I did talk to him.

1028
00:54:57.769 --> 00:54:59.869
He was asking me about it and I told him,

1029
00:55:00.650 --> 00:55:02.710
but we never really went anywhere with it.

1030
00:55:03.210 --> 00:55:04.670
I never got back to him.

1031
00:55:04.880 --> 00:55:08.000
I've had several heart surgeries and I, I just haven't

1032
00:55:08.059 --> 00:55:09.099
followed through with.

1033
00:55:10.960 --> 00:55:11.880
You know, understand.

1034
00:55:11.900 --> 00:55:12.480
Yeah.

1035
00:55:13.179 --> 00:55:16.010
Well, Lori, thank you so much for hopping on and

1036
00:55:16.050 --> 00:55:19.269
for sharing about that area. It's definitely one I'll be

1037
00:55:19.349 --> 00:55:22.019
remembering from here on out. So I appreciate it.

1038
00:55:22.369 --> 00:55:22.610
Good.

1039
00:55:22.690 --> 00:55:23.070
Thank you.

1040
00:55:23.090 --> 00:55:23.690
Good night now.

1041
00:55:24.789 --> 00:55:25.110
You too.

1042
00:55:25.210 --> 00:55:26.219
Wow.

1043
00:55:26.840 --> 00:55:30.039
That was such an interesting story from an area that

1044
00:55:30.260 --> 00:55:33.300
I have not really heard of just outside of St.

1045
00:55:33.340 --> 00:55:33.619
Louis.

1046
00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:35.800
Hey, this is Jeremiah.

1047
00:55:35.860 --> 00:55:38.360
Have you had a Bigfoot encounter you'd like to share?

1048
00:55:38.900 --> 00:55:39.460
Sure. All right.

1049
00:55:39.480 --> 00:55:39.980
Go right ahead.

1050
00:55:40.489 --> 00:55:40.760
Okay.

1051
00:55:41.619 --> 00:55:44.030
So let me just turn on my camera real quick.

1052
00:55:45.110 --> 00:55:47.670
You can see I'm like a real person, not a troll.

1053
00:55:48.190 --> 00:55:48.869
Hello, everyone.

1054
00:55:48.909 --> 00:55:49.190
Hello.

1055
00:55:50.409 --> 00:55:57.789
So the one Bigfoot encounter that I've actually had, it

1056
00:55:57.829 --> 00:56:00.980
came out of Decatur, Texas. I don't know if you're

1057
00:56:01.019 --> 00:56:05.159
familiar with that area. There is a huge section of

1058
00:56:06.880 --> 00:56:13.119
public property. It's called the LBJ National Grasslands. And on

1059
00:56:13.139 --> 00:56:17.739
this property, there's homes on the properties throughout, just the

1060
00:56:17.760 --> 00:56:20.809
farmers that take care of and manage the land around it. Well,

1061
00:56:21.289 --> 00:56:23.869
we were driving through and we were doing some scouting

1062
00:56:23.889 --> 00:56:26.929
for deer and we're hunting and we came across blood.

1063
00:56:27.699 --> 00:56:29.800
And as we were trailing this blood, we didn't know

1064
00:56:29.820 --> 00:56:31.679
what it belonged to. We were just like, hey, there's

1065
00:56:31.719 --> 00:56:33.260
blood on the ground. You know, it's obviously, it's a

1066
00:56:33.280 --> 00:56:35.539
tracker's instinct to, you know, just see what happened. Well,

1067
00:56:36.480 --> 00:56:39.159
we come down this trail and into this clearing, and

1068
00:56:39.199 --> 00:56:42.639
there was like calf prints, like a small cow, calf.

1069
00:56:43.050 --> 00:56:44.869
And you could see where, there was only like that big,

1070
00:56:44.889 --> 00:56:47.150
it wasn't a full-grown calf. And growing up in the

1071
00:56:47.170 --> 00:56:49.050
deer woods, growing up in the country, I know what

1072
00:56:49.070 --> 00:56:50.510
I'm looking at when I see fur.

1073
00:56:50.530 --> 00:56:52.150
I know what kind of fur belongs to what kind

1074
00:56:52.170 --> 00:56:54.469
of animal. One second.

1075
00:56:54.489 --> 00:56:55.030
Yes? Yes?

1076
00:56:57.269 --> 00:57:00.429
I'm on live, yes? It's okay.

1077
00:57:00.610 --> 00:57:02.690
So I seen the fur on the ground, and I

1078
00:57:02.730 --> 00:57:04.429
could tell that something had gotten a hold of this

1079
00:57:04.449 --> 00:57:05.010
baby calf.

1080
00:57:05.369 --> 00:57:05.849
I could tell.

1081
00:57:05.969 --> 00:57:09.099
I figured coyote, bobcat, the typical stuff, right? And it's

1082
00:57:09.139 --> 00:57:12.699
just calf got separated from his mom. Well, I'm walking

1083
00:57:12.739 --> 00:57:16.980
down the trail, and I stop. And I'm looking around

1084
00:57:17.019 --> 00:57:19.099
at this stuff, and my buddy, Patrick, that was with me,

1085
00:57:19.139 --> 00:57:20.050
he said, don't move.

1086
00:57:20.639 --> 00:57:21.489
Don't move and don't move.

1087
00:57:21.590 --> 00:57:24.130
I thought he meant snake, right? And he said, look

1088
00:57:24.190 --> 00:57:26.449
right down at your feet. And I looked down, and

1089
00:57:26.489 --> 00:57:29.570
that track right there was right under my feet. And

1090
00:57:29.590 --> 00:57:31.070
I looked down, and I just kind of froze for

1091
00:57:31.090 --> 00:57:31.469
a second.

1092
00:57:31.489 --> 00:57:32.750
I looked at it, and I'm like, what was that?

1093
00:57:33.250 --> 00:57:35.769
And then I looked up, and above me, higher than

1094
00:57:35.809 --> 00:57:37.929
I could reach, I'm six foot tall, and higher than

1095
00:57:37.969 --> 00:57:40.710
I could reach, the branches kind of went together like

1096
00:57:40.750 --> 00:57:44.409
that over these bushes, and they were dangling like this.

1097
00:57:44.750 --> 00:57:46.710
Like something had walked through it. You know, like at

1098
00:57:46.750 --> 00:57:49.449
waist high, it's a human or deer, something like that.

1099
00:57:49.530 --> 00:57:51.510
But up here, there's no reason for the tips of

1100
00:57:51.550 --> 00:57:54.940
these branches to be all dangling like that. And I

1101
00:57:55.019 --> 00:57:57.639
looked at that, and I looked down at that track there,

1102
00:57:58.340 --> 00:57:59.980
and my buddy Patrick was with me, and I just

1103
00:58:00.039 --> 00:58:03.840
started shaking my head. I was like, don't play with me, dude.

1104
00:58:04.139 --> 00:58:05.639
I don't even want to talk about that. I don't

1105
00:58:05.679 --> 00:58:10.659
believe in that, you know, whatever. Well, we left that area,

1106
00:58:10.679 --> 00:58:13.099
and we went right up the hill to this farmer's house,

1107
00:58:13.400 --> 00:58:14.400
and we were going to ask him about it.

1108
00:58:14.400 --> 00:58:15.000
I took the picture.

1109
00:58:15.019 --> 00:58:17.340
I wanted to ask him about it. And he was

1110
00:58:17.360 --> 00:58:19.159
out there chopping wood, old guy, probably in his 80s,

1111
00:58:19.179 --> 00:58:23.039
late 70s, early 80s. And I asked him, You know, hey,

1112
00:58:23.079 --> 00:58:23.599
how you doing?

1113
00:58:23.619 --> 00:58:24.719
How much did you get for a quarter of wood?

1114
00:58:24.780 --> 00:58:25.460
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

1115
00:58:26.360 --> 00:58:29.539
So I asked him, I said, hey, have you ever

1116
00:58:29.780 --> 00:58:32.519
seen anything out here? You know, you're missing a calf.

1117
00:58:33.199 --> 00:58:35.900
You know, you notice anything kind of strange going on?

1118
00:58:35.920 --> 00:58:37.119
He just kind of looked at me. He's like, what

1119
00:58:37.219 --> 00:58:39.550
are you getting at? Tell me. I showed him the picture,

1120
00:58:39.570 --> 00:58:40.829
and he kind of looked at it, and he looked

1121
00:58:40.869 --> 00:58:42.110
up at me, and he just kind of started shaking

1122
00:58:42.130 --> 00:58:44.150
his head, and he said, yeah. He said, they're here.

1123
00:58:44.190 --> 00:58:46.150
He said, well, you've got squatches here. And I said,

1124
00:58:46.170 --> 00:58:49.670
you've got squatches here. You've seen Sasquatch. And he said,

1125
00:58:49.730 --> 00:58:50.150
I've seen Sasquatch.

1126
00:58:50.550 --> 00:58:52.429
Five or six seven i don't know if they're all

1127
00:58:52.489 --> 00:58:55.420
different he told me he said when i now he

1128
00:58:55.440 --> 00:58:57.179
had lived there his whole life right he said um

1129
00:58:58.159 --> 00:59:00.360
when he was in his 50s he said it was

1130
00:59:00.380 --> 00:59:02.619
the last he has three fields in the very furthest

1131
00:59:02.659 --> 00:59:04.289
back field he said he was out plowing it one

1132
00:59:04.309 --> 00:59:06.610
day and he said he seen something stand up on

1133
00:59:06.630 --> 00:59:08.550
the tree line and when he stood up he looked

1134
00:59:08.570 --> 00:59:10.739
at it through binoculars and he said it looked like

1135
00:59:12.039 --> 00:59:14.920
someone was carrying a backpack, like a big, and then

1136
00:59:14.940 --> 00:59:18.329
all of a sudden, he seen the backpack drop off

1137
00:59:18.349 --> 00:59:20.269
of the, I guess it was like a mama carrying

1138
00:59:20.289 --> 00:59:22.150
her young one on her back or something, and it

1139
00:59:22.170 --> 00:59:25.050
looked like a little one was being let down. and

1140
00:59:25.070 --> 00:59:27.010
he kind of stopped, and it startled him. He said

1141
00:59:27.030 --> 00:59:28.610
it startled him, but then he looked right up into

1142
00:59:28.630 --> 00:59:32.039
the trees, and he said the biggest creature he'd ever seen,

1143
00:59:32.059 --> 00:59:34.380
and he said it had bright yellow eyes.

1144
00:59:34.440 --> 00:59:36.340
He said it was like it was peering into his soul.

1145
00:59:37.199 --> 00:59:39.159
He's telling me this, and I'm telling Patrick, I'm like,

1146
00:59:39.179 --> 00:59:42.059
he's embellishing this, right? He's just like, He's winding us

1147
00:59:42.099 --> 00:59:43.519
up basically. But this man is 80 years old. He's

1148
00:59:43.539 --> 00:59:46.179
got no reason to lie to me over something like that.

1149
00:59:46.260 --> 00:59:48.679
And he said since that time, and this was 20,

1150
00:59:48.679 --> 00:59:50.980
30 years, he said he's never plowed that field again.

1151
00:59:51.019 --> 00:59:51.760
He stays away from it.

1152
00:59:52.099 --> 00:59:53.860
He doesn't go back there. He didn't go past the

1153
00:59:53.900 --> 00:59:56.579
second field. I'm thinking this is this man's land. This

1154
00:59:56.619 --> 01:00:00.510
is kind of crazy. Well, having a firsthand experience with

1155
01:00:00.550 --> 01:00:02.889
this footprint and the tree limbs and putting two and

1156
01:00:02.909 --> 01:00:08.750
two together, he told me something that was really kind

1157
01:00:08.809 --> 01:00:12.400
of– Strange and why he thought this I don't know

1158
01:00:12.820 --> 01:00:17.429
but he felt he felt like I to some degree,

1159
01:00:17.849 --> 01:00:20.489
these squatches, he kept calling them squatches, but he said

1160
01:00:20.590 --> 01:00:23.619
to some degree, he believes that these squatches were using

1161
01:00:23.699 --> 01:00:26.820
like coyotes or the mountain lions or the cougars or

1162
01:00:26.880 --> 01:00:29.860
whatever as like, kind of like how we use hunting dogs, right?

1163
01:00:29.880 --> 01:00:31.139
They would let them go in and make the killing.

1164
01:00:31.159 --> 01:00:33.280
They would go in and scoop it up, like cohabitation

1165
01:00:33.300 --> 01:00:35.539
or whatever. And he said he only believes this because

1166
01:00:35.570 --> 01:00:39.010
they found a, I guess the TPWD, the Texas Park

1167
01:00:39.389 --> 01:00:42.010
Wildlife Development or whatever, came out onto his land and

1168
01:00:42.030 --> 01:00:44.369
did a survey and they found this kind of what

1169
01:00:44.409 --> 01:00:45.730
we would call a cave, I guess, but it was

1170
01:00:45.750 --> 01:00:47.409
more just like a hollowed out area of, you know,

1171
01:00:47.429 --> 01:00:49.489
the backside of this creek. And they walked in there

1172
01:00:49.510 --> 01:00:52.489
and there was bones from cows and dogs and all.

1173
01:00:52.340 --> 01:00:54.659
Kinds of crazy shit. Like where something had been taken

1174
01:00:55.159 --> 01:00:57.920
to a specific spot to eat. Coyotes don't do that.

1175
01:00:58.500 --> 01:00:59.500
Mountain lions do not do that.

1176
01:00:59.860 --> 01:01:01.679
They do not take all of their prey to a

1177
01:01:01.699 --> 01:01:04.309
specific spot. They leave it where they're eating it.

1178
01:01:04.480 --> 01:01:06.639
All of them do. They don't all go back to

1179
01:01:06.659 --> 01:01:07.750
their den with it. They don't do that.

1180
01:01:09.489 --> 01:01:11.730
And, you know, hearing that from this man and seeing

1181
01:01:11.750 --> 01:01:14.469
this footprint, right, and seeing the trees and all that, uh,

1182
01:01:14.670 --> 01:01:17.469
and knowing that this calf had met an end, like.

1183
01:01:17.349 --> 01:01:19.130
You could see, like there was definitely a tussle with

1184
01:01:19.170 --> 01:01:20.429
this thing. You know what I mean?

1185
01:01:20.489 --> 01:01:24.670
And I guess after that time, I kind of had

1186
01:01:24.710 --> 01:01:28.639
to go based on evidence that I hadn't seen a squash.

1187
01:01:28.719 --> 01:01:31.159
I've spent a lot of time in the woods since

1188
01:01:31.179 --> 01:01:33.800
I was a young kid hunting and blinds.

1189
01:01:33.940 --> 01:01:35.539
I've, you think you see.

1190
01:01:35.420 --> 01:01:37.199
Things all the time when you're out there hunting. I've

1191
01:01:37.239 --> 01:01:40.280
never directly seen a Sasquatch, but I've seen this that

1192
01:01:40.320 --> 01:01:44.090
I know was legit. And, blood, it looked like a massacre, right?

1193
01:01:44.110 --> 01:01:49.349
There's blood everywhere, and sign, and a first-hand witness that

1194
01:01:49.630 --> 01:01:52.289
lived literally, I could hit his house with a rock,

1195
01:01:52.780 --> 01:01:54.159
you know what I mean? He lived right up the

1196
01:01:54.489 --> 01:01:57.079
way from there. So, and I gotta take the word

1197
01:01:57.119 --> 01:01:58.679
of somebody who's there all the time, you know what

1198
01:01:58.760 --> 01:01:59.559
I mean?

1199
01:01:59.639 --> 01:02:00.360
Oh, absolutely.

1200
01:02:00.920 --> 01:02:05.039
There was a really good question from Squatch and Howard.

1201
01:02:05.820 --> 01:02:08.679
Was it dripped blood or something being dragged?

1202
01:02:09.360 --> 01:02:13.110
It looked like something had, I don't know, It wasn't

1203
01:02:13.250 --> 01:02:15.969
like your typical where, like, if a mountain lion grabs

1204
01:02:15.989 --> 01:02:19.010
it by the neck or if a coyote, like, pulls

1205
01:02:19.070 --> 01:02:21.380
it and they start ripping it apart from different directions.

1206
01:02:21.429 --> 01:02:24.460
It wasn't like that. The calf, you could see where

1207
01:02:24.480 --> 01:02:26.300
its hooves had, like, slid in the mud as if

1208
01:02:26.320 --> 01:02:28.719
it was trying to make sharp turns. And the hair,

1209
01:02:28.739 --> 01:02:30.820
that's what was so weird about it because cows don't

1210
01:02:30.860 --> 01:02:32.559
have long hair. But the hair, it looked like the

1211
01:02:32.659 --> 01:02:35.360
hide had been ripped from it because there was just

1212
01:02:35.420 --> 01:02:39.480
hair everywhere. And coyotes don't do that. Bobcats don't do that.

1213
01:02:39.920 --> 01:02:42.860
Mountain lions don't do that. And that's another– the blood

1214
01:02:42.900 --> 01:02:46.099
was so in piles. It was like big pools as

1215
01:02:46.159 --> 01:02:48.739
if it was laid there and like maybe pressed or

1216
01:02:49.320 --> 01:02:51.860
grabbed or something was squeezing it out of it. It

1217
01:02:51.880 --> 01:02:54.059
wasn't like it was like– if you've ever seen blood

1218
01:02:54.079 --> 01:02:57.409
splatter from like a crime scene, it kind of looks

1219
01:02:57.429 --> 01:02:58.650
that way when coyotes get a hold of it.

1220
01:02:58.650 --> 01:02:59.769
It's just everywhere.

1221
01:02:59.809 --> 01:03:02.190
In the trees, it's all over the rocks, everywhere. And

1222
01:03:02.230 --> 01:03:05.369
it's all spread out. This was big piles of blood. And,

1223
01:03:06.590 --> 01:03:10.969
you know– The one thing that this old man told

1224
01:03:11.030 --> 01:03:13.429
me about the yellow eyes, when he said it, there

1225
01:03:13.449 --> 01:03:16.289
was such a profoundness in his voice. Like, you could

1226
01:03:16.329 --> 01:03:18.429
tell he shook him up. Like, even 30 years later,

1227
01:03:18.489 --> 01:03:22.329
he still remembers it. Like, if it was, like, so

1228
01:03:22.670 --> 01:03:25.289
burned into his memory. And he said that thing was

1229
01:03:25.309 --> 01:03:27.619
looking right at me. He said it's like he can.

1230
01:03:27.480 --> 01:03:30.199
See into my tractor. He said I was 100 yards away.

1231
01:03:30.940 --> 01:03:33.079
He said, but, you know, when I seen whatever that

1232
01:03:33.139 --> 01:03:35.000
was stand up, he.

1233
01:03:34.940 --> 01:03:37.059
Said it looked like a human. It looked like a

1234
01:03:37.219 --> 01:03:37.800
big human.

1235
01:03:38.510 --> 01:03:39.820
And was carrying a backpack, and then all of a

1236
01:03:39.820 --> 01:03:41.860
sudden the backpack dropped, and you could tell that the

1237
01:03:41.900 --> 01:03:42.679
backpack started moving.

1238
01:03:42.699 --> 01:03:44.440
There's a little one on his mama's back.

1239
01:03:45.239 --> 01:03:45.900
Which makes sense.

1240
01:03:45.960 --> 01:03:49.440
I mean, little details like that, people that, in my estimation,

1241
01:03:49.500 --> 01:03:53.059
people that see something like that can't make up those

1242
01:03:53.099 --> 01:03:54.000
fine details like that.

1243
01:03:54.340 --> 01:03:56.960
You know what I mean? They're not quick enough to think, oh,

1244
01:03:57.079 --> 01:03:58.369
I can just throw that in there. No, they're not.

1245
01:03:58.400 --> 01:03:59.280
It's just something that's just.

1246
01:03:59.420 --> 01:04:00.039
Truth has a benefit.

1247
01:04:00.079 --> 01:04:00.280
Exactly.

1248
01:04:00.300 --> 01:04:02.000
You know what I mean?

1249
01:04:02.679 --> 01:04:07.780
But the yellow eyes, I don't know. myth or folklore.

1250
01:04:07.800 --> 01:04:09.380
The only thing I've ever heard about like yellow eyes,

1251
01:04:09.420 --> 01:04:10.340
like werewolf, right?

1252
01:04:10.360 --> 01:04:13.380
I've heard yellow eyes for werewolves or whatever, but Bigfoot,

1253
01:04:13.880 --> 01:04:17.239
they're pretty common here in Texas. Like the thought of them, right?

1254
01:04:17.260 --> 01:04:19.780
People talk about it. It's not like, you know, it's,

1255
01:04:20.139 --> 01:04:21.969
it's not like taboo to talk about. You hear about

1256
01:04:21.989 --> 01:04:25.469
it all the time. But for me personally, 37 years old,

1257
01:04:25.630 --> 01:04:26.949
I've hunted every year of my life.

1258
01:04:27.030 --> 01:04:29.429
I've never seen it. I've never seen a Bigfoot, but this,

1259
01:04:30.030 --> 01:04:32.449
this was on the trail.

1260
01:04:32.809 --> 01:04:35.800
This footprint was on the trail where that calf had

1261
01:04:35.820 --> 01:04:36.300
been slaughtered.

1262
01:04:36.630 --> 01:04:39.230
It was on the trail. Where the trail goes, it

1263
01:04:39.349 --> 01:04:40.239
opens up into a meadow.

1264
01:04:40.340 --> 01:04:43.980
This was less than 10 yards from where that first

1265
01:04:44.000 --> 01:04:44.699
pool of blood was.

1266
01:04:44.719 --> 01:04:49.860
Is this area by a big river?

1267
01:04:51.400 --> 01:04:54.789
His property, the guys that's right up the hill from there,

1268
01:04:54.809 --> 01:04:56.929
literally hit it with a rock, you can see it

1269
01:04:56.949 --> 01:04:58.940
from there, has a big creek that runs through it,

1270
01:04:58.949 --> 01:05:00.590
and there's ponds all over the property.

1271
01:05:00.610 --> 01:05:03.949
There's six or eight different big bodies of water, lots

1272
01:05:03.989 --> 01:05:07.050
of oil rigs out there and stuff, and stuff like that.

1273
01:05:07.809 --> 01:05:09.050
Thanks for coming out, dude.

1274
01:05:10.550 --> 01:05:13.840
Bye-bye.

1275
01:05:14.199 --> 01:05:16.420
