Forward slash the Bigfoot Society and now let's get on with the show, all right. Big for Society got the privilege of talking to Neil today. Neil's from Bigfoot Talk dot com and he's an individual that I reached out to after checking out his website. He's got a lot of really cool stuff on there regarding Bigfoot and sounds like he's got just an incredible story that I've invited him onto the show tonight to and Neil, how are you doing today, sir?

1:03 I'm doing good? How you doing doing great? And this is this is one of the ones that I have really been looking forward to. I mean, just I've seen the stuff you share and the stuff you have on this site, and it just I think people are especially going to learn a ton from this show tonight. So you know, Neil, let's make the best use of our time. And I'm gonna let you go ahead and take us back as far back as we need to go to when you started experiencing all this, and feel free to go right ahead, sir. Okay, sounds good. Let me start a little background on myself. When I grew up, I lived in the country. We didn't have any really neighbors to play with and stuff like that, but I used to love the outdoors. My dad would take me hunting. He learned me medi valuable lessons.

1:54 One of the ones he always taught me is don't shoot and kill anything you're planning on eating it. So that's one thing that was drilled into me. Don't you're taking a light. Don't take a life unless you're gonna use it for food. But I was always in the woods. My mom got so bad at me that she put a bail out in front of the house because we had like seventy seven acres right there at the house. So I was always out in the woods. And when she could call as much as she wanted, but I could never hear. So she could a bail out in front so she can call me to let me know come out of the woods, it's time to come in and eat or go somewhere. But I used to love to be in the woods. I would sit up on the hillsides looking over a big bottom. I would just close my eyes and listen to all the animals, the sounds they make. And what's amazing is after a short period of time, I learned that animals talk to each other.

2:58 They made certain sounds, and if you learn them, you can actually tell that that sound means that this animal's around, especially in the squirrels. The squirrels have to sound for everything. If it's a holk or an Now they'll get one louch. Well, all the squirrels will freeze, won't say a word, and then when they passed by, then the one that did the original scream will start up again, and then all the others will start moving and talking. But they had a different sound for dogs, cats, people, deer. Oh, they hated deer because deer would eat their acorns, and they would just start yelling and screaming that then like there's something they could do that there Just look up at them like you're crazy, you know, these are my acorns, soue, you know. But it was so funny because I started realizing that they if I can learn this stuff in a short period of time, how much do these animals know that are there all the time. My biggest nemesis was the crow. The crows could see in color, and they have binocular vision, and they will surround the area and they will give you away because they can see that orange on you that my dad always made me wear orange. They can see that orange for me miles away.

4:17 They would let the whole woods know, and you might as well pack it up. Then if you've seen a dough or a little one, that'll be all you see because the crows already gave you away. The big bugs stuff like that, you're not gonna see them. But I learned how to track animals. I learned what normal was normal to the woods. I learned about scrapes, normal tree braids. Poor They knows coming through what it looks like floods, what it looks like all kinds of different things I learned. In fact, they got to the point that if somebody shot a deer and didn't kill it it was injured, they would let it call me to help hunt it down or to track it so that they can put it out of its misery as quick as possible, because that's not what hunters do. Hunters that are gonna eat it want to put them ei their misery as quick as possible. Don't want the pain and suffering. But so I learned a lot of valuable lessons as a kid.

5:17 Now I'll come back into current situation. About ten years ago, my wife found this property in North Georgia that was beautiful. The property was beautiful, but it'd been abandoned for eight to ten years, so it was overgrown. So as soon as you drive into it, you see brush and scrubs and everything ain't a ten foot tall, and I'm like, uh, I don't know about this. But then when you get up there and see the house, how pretty the house is, and you realize it's got two streams on it, it had an old pond on it, there's some structures on it and stuff and everything that I saw, and I love deer deer are my favorite animals of all of them.

6:04 I love to watch them grow their antlers each year. And this should have been a deer haven. There was everything scuckling, buyes, grape, said plants, some grapes. They had grapes. There was honeysuckle. Oh my goodness, it was stuff all over the place, brow brows and the deer kadie. So I just knew there had to be a bunch of deer here. So after we saw it, we ended up buying the property. And after we was going to give some work because we had to make a pad for all the kids to park on the front had to be cleaned up in bush howks, so that you actually had grass and stuff out there again, and back behind the house it was the same way. It had to be cleared up, so it took some time. I always wanted to help free trees when I retired. This was was gonna be our retirement pulp. So I planted apple trees and two types red delicious and yellow delicious peach trees, two or three two types of peaches, three types of pears.

7:11 It already had some fig trees on it. It already had some pecan trees on it it already had well. I planted some blueberry bushes and also planted some percimone. Now, of course the deer when they come around, they'd love to get on the apple and peach trees. The little browse off of it. So all the stuff I planted, I had to put nedding around about six foot tall, put tea posts in the ground, dedding around it, and then on the ground I would put the fabric so that the grass would compete with the young trees and they could grow better. Not only that, but if free falls off of it, it's not gonna get dirty and messed up because it's gonna be on the fabric. So there's a lot of things that we did to try to make it back into shape the way we wanted to be. The funny thing about it was they're just wasn't that many deer tracks. I couldn't understand that this place was perfect for deer. It had the two creeks, they were the banks were cut ten to twelve foot deep, it had nice clean water, all the stuff to eat, but they just woren't that many here. So with me, loving nature like I did, I went started flatten clover out in the front field in winter peas during the winter.

8:29 I would put extra food out there for them, up other supplemental feeding out there for him, and it was called stump feeders, and I would put little shoots on the bottom so that the whatever was in it wouldn't get on the ground and get all nurky and messy. I put mineral blocks out there. I would put in the back. I had a bunch of eight to ten bird feeders, and I had one four or five of the stump feeders that I was putting supplemental feeding in. And so the deer started to come and I was happy about it, but still something on the property. I saw things that made no sentence to me. I saw things that is not normal to what I used to see.

9:23 And all the animals where I grew up are the same as the animals are here. There's no bear here at this location. They have bear around other locations, but there's none here. But I saw things like I saw this one trail after we cut the bush hogged it in the back. This trail was I'm six ' four and really wide because I played football, and probably probably a foot from me shoulder that trees and all were that far away from the trail, and I'm like, wow, that's not normal. And you can look anywhere and you barely can get through it. Here's this trail that's like this.

10:06 I go look at the trail. I can't figure out what's making this trail. This trail, whatever's been using it, has everything crushed. All the leaves are smashed flat on the ground. All the limbs and branches that are falling are smashed and crushed. Now, deer, would they step on a little twig or stick, It'll break it, but it's not going to smush it. This stuff had been smushed, And I started trying to think. The only animal that I knew that could do stuff like that would be an elephant. I mean, it looked like a bunch of elephants would walk in a row and just crush everything as that step on it. But as far as I knew, in Georgia, they don't have me escaped elephants, so it's not that. But I couldn't figure out what was making trail.

11:01 Then on the other side of the creek near the house, I had to go over there on that side, and I actually had to cut a bunch of trees down to get to the old pond. But on the other side it was weird because remember I said there's ten to twelve foot banks, but they used bullboats or to make a trail to ride over there. So the banks are about ten foot tall on each side, but in the trail itself on the other side, there's three logs and each log is as big around as my waist. But they hadn't been cut. They looked like they had just been snouted, and they were put flat on the ground. They weren't coming from the banks. They weren't. They were all the way across, but they weren't coming from the banks.

11:46 There was no root hole. I'm like, this is weird. Why would anybody want to block off this trail when there's nothing over here? And then why would they use a chainsaw or something? These had just been snaued album in a row that I had to move out away, and then took that effort to get them moved out away because they were super heavy. But it made no sense to me. I mean, I kept going, why would a person do this? Why would somebody do this? It made no sense. And when I finally got betrayal made to the pond, the streams were blocked up. So what I decided to do was I decided to take water out of want of streams, pump it over into the pond, and restock it to put it. And that's a process.

12:36 You take meadows in, then you take the brim dead, then you take the baths end. And so I started stocking it with minnows. Now, for those that don't know, minnows lay their eggs on the bottom of woods, or these minnows dead, they would leave their eggs on the bottom of tree lins and stuff like that. And what happened was after we got it over there, there's an old open sided barn over there next to that fund, and they used to make furniture. There was saldust on the floor and it had caught fire. So one day when I was driving up, I saw all the smoke from over there, and I took two of the kids over there with me and saw what was going on, and I was trying to fight it. It was a big table that they would put lumber and stuff on and cut it, and I was using a rate and I was raking it back under that table, and I had to run back to the house and get two buckets.

13:36 I had to put one in the creek to get the water and another one up top to bring it from him to me throw it on it and keep pushing it, and it was getting out of control, so I ended up having called the fire department to help. Now by the time they got there, I already had it under control, but at the time I called him, I didn't think it was going to happen that way, and it was getting It was going to get close to the roof. So when the fireman got there, they took those and I couldn't figure out why the fire wasn't going through that tangle. It should have burnt right through it all the way to the root, but it never did. Well. As we started breaking that apart, we realized that was an old tiny pool table that had slated.

14:21 The slate was stopping it from burning through, but there were burning embers on the legs and sideboard and everything like that. So the firemen took all the sideboards and the legs and they were heavy, some were like twenty to thirty pounds, threw them into the pund and one side would be burned, the other side wouldn't be burned, and so they were floating into pund. You know, no big deal. But then after a while when the meadows were getting bigger, I was like, you know, I need to get those out of there. They were spread out. They were within three foot of the bank, and there's really no the way we have the water going in it, there's really no stream, there's no flow in it. So where they are it didn't wash that way, it was put that way. But within they were spread out in all the corners on the side, within three foot of the bank, and the bird side was down on all of them, which was strange.

15:19 Big for society will be right back after these messages. But anyway, I want to get them out because I didn't want the duppies the minnows to try to lay the eggs on the bottom of them and it kill them, do something to them. So we had took all those heavy things and the first one, when I rolled it over, it had leeches all over it, big leeches. I would have to clean them off, hoot them in the boat, hopefully the leeches wouldn't get on me and stick to me.

16:07 Then go and throw them up against the bank. They had when they had made that with a bulldozer there's a trail around them for a side of side or fourth with her to go on, and I was throwing it on the hill behind it. Take them all out and throw it there. The next weekend, well we would go to throw some food out for the minnows. They were back in the water. I'm like, what's doing this? Why is this stuff back in the water. And they were in the all four corners and one on each side, and the bird side was down. Now I don't know if you know about wood or not, but the bird side is the lighter side. The side of this up bert it is going to be the heavier side. So I didn't know why the bird side was always down.

16:59 At the very word, you should have fifty to fifty burned side up, the other side down. But all the time they were down, I would go back out there. I would take and pick them up, you hut all the leeches off of it, throw them back up on the bank. The next weekend I'd go there, back in the water again. Now some of these think they're twenty to thirty pounds. Some of them were four to five foot long. Because it was on a pool table on the side. So when I went back that time, I said, Okay, I'm gonna take these out one more time because this makes no sense to me. You've got to have it hands to be putting this in there. Get there to pick it up and put it back in there. Beaver aren't going to touch anything burn, They're going to touch fresh and growth of little trees. Raccoons aren't going to have anything to do with it. Nothing that I knew of would do it throw it back there, and whatever he's doing, it had to have hand put him in their third time. I mean he took him out a third time, and finally after the third time, I said, bomp it. I'm I'm tired of fighting this. They can just stay in there. So I never at that time knew what was doing it. Then in December of twenty nineteen, my kids got me a cutout of a big foot

18:30 that was painted black. And I was always the cripted lover. I always wanted to watch the shows. They intrigued me, and honestly, I thought that there was a fifty to fifty chance because of all the sightings and witness encounters, and the Indians all had cave drawings along with the other animals that were real. So why would they put Bigfoot with the other animals unless they were real. But I thought they were on the West coast or up in Canada or Alaska. I never ever thought that it possible that they could be here. So anyway, that gives you an idea of where my head was at the time.

19:12 I was nowhere around thinking that Bigfoot could be here, that I'd seen all that stuff that made no sense. Two weeks later, in January of twenty twe my wife was watching a movie. Now, this was a scary movie. It was late at night. I don't like to watch scary movies. She loves to watch scary movies. They may be angry and maybe want to hit the TV to kill whatever's trying to hurt people. I don't know why. That's just the way I'm wired. So I went to bed about one am. She walks out on the backboard. It's nice and cool out there, so you've got two hot you'd had the fireplace on, and so she willed out there to go out there to'd be cool. She gets out there and after just a minute or so, to the right of her, there is a super loud whistle.

20:05 Now this whistle searsed from people in high school. There were a lot of people that can whistle real loud, but she had never heard anything whistle this loud. And it was just out from where the light would reach, so you couldn't see it. It was probably thirty to forty yards out. Then she didn't know what was going on. Now, we had dogs on the outside and they were going crazy. We have them a nice big shed with a little heater and air condition in their couch, a little back deck on it with fenced in. They were jumping up and down on the fence, barking like crazy. And the only animal I'd ever heard whistle was a deer. But a deer wouldn't go that direction, because the next time it whistled, it had moved about thirty yards more in front of her, in between the bird feeder and the bigfoot cut out, and he whistled again. Now this time she thought it was one of the kids trying to play a prank on her, trying to scare her. So she said, you're not gonna scare me. Come back inside.

21:15 The dogs are still barking, going crazy. Then he goes within five yards of the dog pin where the dogs are jumping up and down, going crazy. No deer in rut or anything else would ever get within five yards off a fence. And they's got dogs jumping up and down on it. As soon as they would hear them start barking, they're going to take off the other direction. They want nothing to do with dogs. Then he went on down to the creek in the woods and gave one last long whistle down there, so then she knew of what the kids. First off, they want a flashlight.

21:55 They would have had a flashlight. They would never go in the woods after dark because they didn't grow up like I did, and you know, familiar with the outdoor. So he ran in the house. She checked to see if all the kids were there, and sure enough, they were all asleep, every one of them. So she runs in there, wakes me up, and she says, come here, come here, there's something out here. There's something out here. So I drove my shoes on. I can go out there on the back porch. I'll listen. I'll listen. I don't hear anything. There's nothing there. But I know my wife doesn't lie to me, and she was in a panic. I don't think she was scared. It was more of confusion because She had no idea what it wast Honestly I didn't either, but I wasn't gonna It didn't freak me out because I've been around wildlife long enough to know there's nothing really I can't handle in the outdoors.

22:49 So but I kept that in my mind along with all the other stuff that I'd seen, and I kept processing in my mind. Is your mind is like a computer. He keeps processing things that wants to figure out what it is. Two weeks later after that, at four forty seven in the morning, something hit the brick wall, our house's brick Something hit the brick wall. We have a window on each side of the bed, and it hits in between those and in between us in the bed, and it hit so hard the whole house show. There was a picture on the wall that's about twenty pounds and quacked to wake up. She never hardly wakes up.

23:37 I opened my eyes. I see the top of the picture going back, which means he went out first, then the bottom comes out and goes back. Then it turned sideways. It almost knocked it off the wall. I'm like, holy cow, what the world did that? And by that time my wife woke up. She goes, what was that? I said, I have no idea what that was. So I sat up on the side of the bed and I'm going, okay, let me figure this out. What could do something like that? Well, sometimes if a jet does a sonic boom near your house and that's close enough and low enough, it could make the whole house shape. But this wasn't a sonic boom because you here the after effect of the jet wash.

24:21 Didn't hear that. This was just a hit on the thing. I didn't hear the boom from it or anything like that, so I knew what that. Then I thought, well, what about an earthquake? And I said, no, I've been through an earthquake. That's like a wave in the ocean going under your house. And whatever this was hit high up on the wall. And then I started thinking, well, the only other thing is a tree falling on your house. But the trees are too far away from the house right here to hit the house. And there's no storm outside, there's no lightning, there's no wind. I don't know what. Yeah, I don't know what did it. But I got up, crown my epad, I go into the bathroom because my wife she's going back to sleep, and I don't want to disturb her by looking through stuff. So I looked through to see if anybody else reported anything weird that happened. Nothing.

25:19 There was nothing reported anywhere else, so it wasn't like you was a big explosion somewhere that shook everybody's house, or they would have put it in there. So I said, well, I'm going to go back to sleep. I'm find out what it is the next morning. The next morning, I go outside and all the grass on that side is padded down flat on the side of the brick wall, there is something. You had hid it and made a big circle, and all the dust and all the dirt was off of it in that section, and I'm like, what in the world. I'm six four, and whatever did that is nine to ten foot tall, not nine to ten foot tall, but he hit nine to ten foot up on the wall. So I'm like, this doesn't make any sense. Something the hit stood here, hit the house.

26:21 I'm six four with long arms, and I'm I can't come close to touching where it had to hit. So I go back inside and I think either right before it went out there, I pulled my iPad out just kind of wondering, I said, let me put him bigfoot in the town closest to us. And then something popped up of the story came across that did not show the location, but the story was talking about a where a person saw a bigfoot, and I could tell by what they were describing the roads and the stuff around it that had to be close to us. It had to be really close to us. So I'm sitting there, going, there must be the possibility there's a big foot in this area, So let me call this bigfoot expert that I know that's in North Georgia. Now, honestly, I don't believe anybody is an expert, true expert, because nobody really knows exactly what they are. But if there is one, he would be the closest to it. Then I called him because I wanted to find out the person that wrote that report, because it was a bfr BF or own report. I wanted to talk to them and see

27:52 if I could find the location. That was my goal of calling him. Well, when I get him on the phone, then I realized he was in the BFRO And when I tell him the person's name and said, no, we don't know where that person is and so you really, you know, that really wouldn't help. But can I ask you some questions? I said yes, sure, he said, okay, tell me a little bit. So I was telling him about some of the things I'd seen and that made no sense, and then he said okay. He said, do you have a lot of animals on the property. And then that's when I started telling them about the deer.

28:32 Shouldn't be a deer haven. There wasn't that many deer, so I had to start putting food out for them, and deer, you know, feeders was supplemental food and all kinds of fed the birds and everything else. He goes, oh, the case, you put food out for the animal. Yes, I put food out for the animal. He goes, what do you hunt? I said, no, I don't hunt. I used to hunt as a kid, but I don't hunt anymore because my dad always said, if you're gonna shoot something, you better do it to get something to eat. And my wife would never eat a deer or another animal like that much. Let's cook it. So I'm not going to just go and shoot something to kill it. I'm just not going to do it. And I love to watch the deer, another animal so no, we don't hunt.

29:20 And then he said, well, do you have any fruit trees? I said, yeah, I planted a bunch of fruit trees and I told them about all the ones I planted and stuff, and he goes, well, do you ever have any of your fruit missing? And I said, well, when I planted on they were just real young. The only one that's made something is the peaches. But it's really weird because I have dating around it and on the ground and fabric on the ground. Big for Society will be right back after these messages.

30:03 And every time for two years we've had some peaches on it. And during the week when they're getting right, I'll tell the family, Hey, the peaches are getting ripe. So this weekend we're going to go pick some and make the peach cobbler come Saturday. Every peach is gold, no seeds, none on the ground. And some of these were eight to ten foot tull. And plus we have an inning around which was away from it cried away since six foot high, and nobody where the house is. You can't see us from the road. We said, way back in the wood. So he said okay, he said, you have any other fruit, go miss and I said, yeah, are figs. I like to make fig preserves. I said, there'll be a bunch of figs getting ripe, and I'll go out there and they'll all be gone except for one or two. That's half right, I said. Our p semon trees would make per simmons right off. So they must have the way they did the plants, I said, And they they go missing and the deer aren't again the because the deer can't get to them because of the deer nating around it. He said, okay, he said, so you feed the animals. You've had this stuff happened, You've got fruit going missing, You've got fruit teas. You're feeding animals, you're not doing them. He said, I got a good idea of what's going on. I said, okay, what's going on? He said, you know what's going on.

31:33 That's why you called me. You have a big foot. I said, I've got a big food and he said, yeah, you have a big food. I said, well, well, what are they trying to say? What are they trying to do? He said, they're letting you know there there and want to cohabitate and live with you, coesists with you there where you're at now. That blew my mind. I'm like, you know, I'd liked to watch the stuff that. I really didn't know anything about Piglet at the time, and I was like, really, I said, how do you know that?

32:15 He said, okay, Well, let me ask you some more questions. I said, okay. He said, on your road, do you find trees pushed down across it a lot? I said, We've never had a tree pushed down across the road. I said, okay. He said, have you ever had anything run by your house in the middle of the night hit it two or three times? No, we've never had that happen. Have you ever heard growls from the woods around your house when you're outside at night. No, we've never heard growls outside. Have you ever heard rocks or sticks or something being thrown on your roof at your house or on the barn nearby? No, never heard it.

32:59 He said that if they didn't want you there, that's what they would be doing. He said, they're just letting you know that they're there. They evidently have been watching you and see that you're friendly to the animals, you're nice people because of all the stuff that you're doing, and so they want to coexist with you. Well, that kind of blew my mind, unlike okay, And then we kind of ended the conversation, and I'm like, all right, So I'm tired for a person that goes by the motto trust but verify. I trusted what he said, but I wanted to verify what he said. So after a little bit of thinking, I was like this. After a while, after a few weeks, I was like, what can I do to try to find out they're really here? So what I decided to do is I one betrayal that they had walked on and smust everything down. I was going to go put two headless nails in a tree and stick red apples on it. I'll just stick them up as high as I could and find a tree that really didn't have any limbs on it for other things to get to it. So what agaend is I stuck a red delicious apple on each one of adails.

34:23 Then I raked off underneath it. Now the leaves and all were so thick that it didn't get to the dirk, but it got to the soft leave, soft wet leaves underneath it, which can press easy. So I go down there. The next time I go down there, and I believe it was the next day, but it could have been two days later. The apples are gone. That's good. I looked in there. It was in that in the in the leaves there was an impression of one that of a human like foot sixteen to sixteen and a half inches long. And I have my answer. So we do how Bigfoot? Bigfoot is here? So at the time, I thought of the Bigfoot like most people think, Bigfoot's just a normal, everyday animal. So I decided, okay, well, I'm going to try to this is this is unique. I'm going to try to find out how we can communicate and learn about them, because nobody really does. And if I can earn their trust and let them know that I'm willing, maybe I can learn more about them and everything to find out, you know, all about them, find out as much as I can. So I kept putting

35:54 apples out there, and they kept disappearing, and so I was trying to think I needed act with me. So down there, near where I was putting the apples out, I had a stump feeder. Now the stumb feeder was level and on the top it had the rings. And I said, I'm going to give them some blue marbles. I saw the show one time where they were talking about them liking blue marbles. So I'm going to put some blue marbles up there to kill them as a gill. And it's with the end, probably fifteen twenty yards off where I'm putting the apples. So I put the blue marbles up there. That was on a Sunday, and I think the next Saturday when I went down there, the marbles were gone. I'm like, this is great. They're not on the ground, They're all gone. So I went and told my wife. She wanted to see it. So we drive down there. Sure enough, they're gone. Now to go down there, it makes a big u by this kind of the way that the streams and everything. My wife does all the mowing. Thank goodness, I got her a real nice zero turn so she could do the mowing.

37:10 It relaxes her. She loves to mow. So we're going around that you and when we get to start going up on the northernmost side, there is a huge river rock on the left hand side of the trail. This scene's got away one hundred pills, and there's another one that weighs about sixty Davy pills on the right side of the trail, right next to it. My wife stops and looks at them, and she goes, where did these come from? I said, I have no idea where those came from. You know, they're huge. She goes, they weren't there when I was mowing. And if you can imagine, you know, they're not just gonna jump out of a stream.

37:54 What it's got ten to twelve foot banks, but here they are. At the time, not thinking that these could be a guilt back to us for the blue marbles, because everything I've seen is like they weave twigs together. It's a feather, it's flowers, you know, it's something like that. Nobody ever said that we're gonna leave your boulder as a gift. So we go to my mom's house stay there. On the way back, my wife's asleep, and my little brain's just going crazy. I said, wait a second, that might be a gift because the marbles are hard like a rock, they're just pretty colored, and so they may have given us those rocks as a gift back. So we get home late Sunday night. I go to work Monday morning. But this is eating an I'm gonna find out, I'm gonna go look at them again and find out.

38:53 So instead of go with the yueu, I cut right through the metal so I could get there quickly because I was already gonna be laid to work. And as I drive around where they were their gold, those big river rocks were gold, they weren't there. I'm like, what the heck is going on? So I go up the trail, on up up the trail and by the peace tree that they like the most, where she had recently mowed and was leveled there. The big one was sitting right there by that peace tree. I said, that's crazy. That thing is moved fifty yards fifty to sixty yards up up the trail, right by that peace tree where she just mowed, And I was like, I wonder where the other one is. So went all the way around you and we had made a parking area for the kids.

39:48 Had to bring in a ton of dirt to make it because it was really steep going down to the creek. It was several hundred loads of dirt. We had to do it to make a path that they could part. So it was eight foot from the top of the pad to where the trail was beside it, so there was like an eight foot drop, and there was the other one, the other rock beside the trail over there, and another rock just like it on the other side of the trail. I'm like coly cow. They moved these to make sure that we saw them and knew it was a gift, because they wanted to make sure we accept their gift back. So we did. We took the gifts.

40:32 We put them by the steps on our porch so that they knew that we had accepted their gifts. And I think that was a big thing that happened to lead into everything else. But another thing that they did at that time is when I was putting apples on the tree, I started thinking, you know something's got sixteen inch foot that it's wider than hours. I've got a huge foot. Mine's thirteen and a half foot long five and a half inches wide, and this one makes my look like a baby print. Because a little will thought it, I said, they probably want more apples, And I'm thinking to myself, I was looking around, where can I put some more? I could not find anywhere to put some more.

41:20 So when I go back the next time, I look in on the other side of a fence. That's right there. There is a vine that goes up vertically, then he goes horizontal for about a foot, then it goes up vertically into a tree, whereas whereas horizontal. There are four sticks hoked in the ground from different angles and look like a tepee. And the way the tepee makes a cup on pop off it, so I said, And what was weird is that they all were of the same height. They were broken off the same height, not pointy, just snapped off even. And I'm like, I could put one here.

42:06 And when I put an apple in it, it hit it like three corners of the way. And I said, oh that's good. I'm gonna see how smart they are because they're gonna have a hard time finding this one. So I go back the next day the apple's golf. I was impressed. I'm like, man, they're smarter than I thought they were. They found the two, and they found this one also, And then I looked around into the left right next to the bench, there is another one just like it, and I said, well, wait a second, I know that one wasn't there. So I started looking at it and I realized it had been made when I pulled it out of the ground. The sticks were three to four inches deep and they were sharp into the ground.

42:51 But they who were broke offee even on top, and they would snapped all even that wasn't pointed on all of them. Each one had four sticks, but they were angled onto something that would hold it up to make a cup on top to put an apple. I was amazed, I'm honest with you, though at first I was a little insulted because here I am trying to test if they can find this apple. They not only find it, but they're the ones that made the holder. I put it right where they wanted me to, so I felt like I lost that match. There's some part of the meal that time, because I did exactly what they wanted me to do. But it was amazing that they made that.

43:38 So then I decided to take it a step further. Let's see if we can start interacting incommunicating with them. You know, we gifted on the blue marbles, but we didn't really interact with them. They just took them and did with them whatever they wanted to do, probably little ones playing games with it like our little kids would do. So I took a clear pipelight put some extremely white aquarium sand in it, and then took eight blue marbles and made a smiley face and put it on that stump theater that again it level, and I said, let's see if we can somehow start using figures to communicate. You.

44:27 Go down there the next time. All the marbins are pulled to the bottom of the plate. Now it hadn't rained a little like I saw a fingertil print on one, but you're not sure the others couldn't sing fingertil prints. We made a smiley face again. Go back the next time. They're at the bottom of the plate. Again big for society, who will be right back after these messages.

45:09 They all were there, but they were just pulled to the ball of the plate. So we then we've made another smiley face. Go back the next time they're at the bottom of the plate. I think we did it four times. We made a smiley face and pulled it to the ball to play, and I'm like, you know, this isn't getting anywhere. I don't know what's doing this. I don't know what's happening, but I'm done playing this game. But we left it down there. We go back down probably two weeks later, or maybe not that much, maybe that one week. Guess what, we had left them at the bottom of the plate, and now there was a smiley face. They were playing a game with me and pulling them to the bottom of the plate and we were doing it back. And then when we quit, they made a smiley face because now they want to start interacting with us. They don't they want to play and interact with us. I thought that was really deep. So what we did was I decided we would start doing something different. We made different shades and see what they would do with it. And one of the ones that really amazed me because I took a square. I had three blue marbles on top. There were two dark blue

46:39 ones on the top left and top right, the one in the middle was a lighter blue, three down on the bottom row, and then in the middle in between the rows on each side one so there were six marbles. I went down there the next time. They had made that square into a smiley face. But you know, they don't think the way we do. They didn't do it how we would do it most people, including myself, you're going to take them, pick them up and make a smiley face. They took the one in the middle top it was a light of blue, slid it down to making nose. They took the two on east side and slid them house. They took the middle one in the bottom and slid it down a little bit in four moves.

47:30 They took a square and made it a smiley face. How crazy is that? And I will tell you a story also about something that happened a little later on, because it also had to do with the pipeplay. So one night I was going to the bathroom, and the bathroom is right next to the porch, and if I hear the dogs barking, I will open the door to see if I can hear howls or tree nogs or what's going on. You know, sometimes you're gonna hear Kyle's owls, different things. And the dogs started barking at the edge of the woods and they were following it, and I could tell they were following it, and it was coming right towards to the right of the back porch is a stump feeder up in the corner, and deer were up there a lot. So I in my mind, I'm thinking that there's something going down that road, and they're following it up that road, because they would sound the same as if it was coming to the deck. All of a sudden, the doors open on the back deck.

48:41 Something goes wow. I was like, what in the world. It was like, that's a rock that hit the back porch, but it's that's closed the door. That's too closed. I don't know. I knew what did it. Honestly, I knew what did it, But that's just too close, because that whole bathroom shook and the back hoard shook. Then the next day I called somebody in North Georgia that also knows a lot about Bigfoot. Told them what happened. I said, if it doesn't make sense, something hid the back porch.

49:21 I know by the sound it was a rock, I said, But it wasn't thrown. I know Bigfoot throws them, but this did not have a skip or a bounce on the back porch. This was a rock slamming it. And when I went out looked the next morning, you could see where the rock slammed it in some of the sand that came off the rock where it hid, but there was no rock there. So I explained to him what happened, and he goes he goes, yeah, he goes. Probably what happened was there was one going hunting so low and he has a throwing rock. Usually when they go out to hunt, by themselve, I'll take a throwing rock so they can hit a raccoon in a tree, or they can hit something on the ground that's quicker than them to stun it and go grab it. So it probably hit it with a throwing rock and took it with them. I said, oh, okay, well that makes sense.

50:17 So I'm just thinking about why would they do that. Why would they hit the back porch line to get my attention? In my mind, I was thinking that it was an adult. I was thinking that this is an adult. They hit it. The next time we go down to the marble plate. You wouldn't believe it. They made a picture of the house. I went back to where they stood to hit it, and it looks exactly the same as a picture they made with the blue marbles to let me know that they hit the house. And then nearby, probably four or five foot from it, they left the throwing rock, which was really need then itself, because it actually looks like you can see their fingerprints in this rock, which was crazy. But they left that as a guilt.

51:17 But so the only thing I could think of is I had the door open, they saw the light, could smell me in there, and they knew my smell because I'd go and handle all the apples and stuff, and they wanted to come say hi to men. You know, it's a weird way to do it, but maybe that was just the way they wanted to do it. But then they go and they make a picture to let me know was them, and then leave me a gift with the throwing rock. I thought that was really crazy. So they did use that to interact with us and to communicate with us in ways. Now at this time, again, I'm still thinking, this is just a normal forest animal.

52:00 So I decided that I would go ahead and make a speeding station for them. I would make I put four by fours in the ground, put a brief on it, put a deck on it, and I put stuff out for them to eat, because I will. At the time, I was like, let me see how they eat things, how they do things. I was my whole premise of doing this was to learn about them, you know, and knowing what I know now, I would never have done that now we've not had anything negative happened from from you know, putting food out for them, but some people how Now we don't put it out all the time, but they do let us know whenever it's out. They don't hit the house, they don't yell or screen, they don't do anything crazy. But we've got like a trippod deer feeder that's black, and then we don't put things in anymore because they kept getting stopped up real easy.

53:04 But when it was out, they would tip it over and it would be right by our driveway. So they were letting me know that there's no food down there. And that's the way they would let me know. Or a few times they would take the bird feeders. I made the bird feeders with metal pipes with blocks on the bottom of it, and they would push the bird feeder over and a couple of times a couple of bird feeders dou ro. But that's no big deal. I just standed back up. But I got a message. I knew what they were saying, that you know, hey, there's no food down here, can you give us some more food? But and that was pretty need. But what I started, I started learning all kinds of things from them. Number one, I would put a whole box of peanut butter crackers out.

53:55 They would take the peanut butter crackers. Now, these were the Lance peanut butter butter crackers, and in the top it's got like a little holes that you can see them down in there. Now, the way people eat them is we open up the ends off them and pull it out the end. They don't do it that way. They stick their hand in that little hole and rip it to the side and pull it out in the side. Not only that, but their hands and fingers are so strong they pull it from the middle sides and it just splits open. Where we would take it from the ends and tear it, they would just pull it from the sides and it rip open. I said, that's crazy.

54:36 Then on jars of peanut butter, they would take jars of peanut butter, take the lid off, throw it down. They would take the label hall because the labels got bright fillers on it, and then they would take the jar and all and the jar would go just disappear, no idea where it's going. Now. In the beginning I saw that this. Some raccoons were getting up there, and you know, raccoons are real ambidextros with their fingers, with their politation and use the black hands, and I didn't want to misidentify anything. So I put feel around the legs and then the top on it that they can't climb over, just to eliminate the raccoon. The white eat trees far enough away that could jump on top of it.

55:22 So I just try to eliminate the possibilities. That's just the kind of things that I do because I want to know what's doing it. But it was the peanut butter being the color it is, they can carry it into the woods and it's the color that cause a problem. But if somebody sees the bright labels on it, or the blue top or the red top, and it draws attention. So they were taking it all. But one of the other things I feild was I put out a bunch of peanut butter jars, and the jars would always go missing. At the beginning, the only place I found in the woods, and I don't go in every area. There's some areas where I know that they stay. I leave it to them.

56:09 That's part of that truck building the trust with them. I want them to trust me. And you know they want to trust. We want to trust each other, so that's part of the building the trust. And I have found a couple of them in the woods where a trail would go down to the stream, but they were on top of the bank, which was a to twelve foot tall. So they're using them as drinking cups, I believe, because the only ones I failed have been on the trails going down to the creek. How smarts that they're not only eating all the peanut butter, but then after they eat it, they're dipping it in the creek and drinking out of them like we would a cup. But one time there was a little one that evidently didn't know how to eat the peanut butter out. Now, the dick was four foot off the ground, so you had to be a small one to be able to sit underneath it. I found a peanut butter jar underneath it where one was sitting, was ripped down like a banana.

57:21 There's no teeth marks on it, there's no plaw marks on it. It has not been done with cisers, it has not been done with flyers. But it was ripped down like crazy so they could get the peanut butter out of the bottom of it. So evidently they hadn't called that one how to eat the peanut butter. All the way out, I'll find out that the bit was older. Ones like the peanut butter the most because of the high protein in it. But when any time I going to expedition or go with other people, I take an empty peanut butter jar, no one yet has it been able to rip it down, even on watch, And this thing is just ripped down like crazy. So also I put in big cubs like you put wrapping paper in the big blown clear tubs. It's got a little cruise around the bottom. And I would put dog food in it.

58:18 And I learned earlier they liked dog food. And I'll tell you that story right now. They had a thirty five pound bag of dog food on the back porch. And the dogs don't eat that much dry food because they're spoiled. They get to a lot of pupperonis and all the good stuff, and they quit eating all the dry food, so it takes them a while to get to it. So it was on the back porch. We had cameras on security cameras on our back fORCH in our driveway and all of a sudden, it had been out there a couple of weeks. All of a sudden, I go out there on a Sunday and the bag is gone, a thirty five pounds bag of dog food gone.

59:03 I'm like, what the heck? So I'd go to look at the cameras. The cameras went dead Friday night. The batteries went dead on it. Now within forty eight hours, probably twenty four, to be honest with you, but within forty eight hours of those cameras going dead, they went and took that dog food and it was chicken flavored dogphood off the back porch. Died it. You know what their guilt back in return for was going into the trail where I'd put apples and over by the plump and on our trail they left some monster poops. They would lead me some real life fertilizer to replace the dog food. I thought that was crazy. And no, I did not get them for DNA. No I did not touch it. I did not accept that guilt. I was like, nah, no, I'm going to do it. But I can tell you that the first one I saw was about a foot longer, a little longer, and if you take a Pringle's can in about three quarters of the dimension. That's how big around it was. Your toilet would be stopped up for two or three days with that, I mean it was huge.

1:00:21 Big for society would be right back after these messages. I had a guy that would help at the pund because the pump would get stopped up sometimes from the creek when a lot of rain came through. And he called me one day and he goes, hey, you got any like real big dogs out here on the property or something over here by the pump, there's some two or three huge poops, biggest I've ever seen in my life. Said, no, we don't have any dogs out there. He said, well, on the way back there was one left in the middle of the trail that was still steaming. Just shook my head and said, no, I think I know was doing it, But at that time he didn't know about them.

1:01:21 He does now because he's seen enough. But they were leaving us poop for dog food. But anyway, so I learned they like dog food. I also, so anyway, I would put the dog food in this huge plastic container that you put Christmas wrapping paper in. I put a what is it? I think fourteen pound bag of dog food did it. And what I found was the little crumbs in the bottom edges. They leave their fingers and eat it like we would potato chips, you know how potato chips, those last little crumbs through the saltiest investatione that their fingers and pick them up and eat the well, they eat the crumbs out of it that way. Also, because I kept finding a little finger trill pill little finger tilt prints around the edges when it was almost gold.

1:02:15 I even found one time now at the end this the base of its and the level because the guy that does the plump made it, and he's a perfectionist. He make sure everything is exactly level. That had been tills. So all the crumbs went into one corner, and evidently it had leaked to all four fingers and gold in the corner because you could see in the corner where there were four fingers in the corner in the crumbs where they were licking it off of it. And I thought that was pretty neat because they're doing something like we would do. But anything that was in a wrapper, they would always pull it from the side and rip it open. They would never do it from the ends. There was a lot of things they would do different. Oh, apples lost apple sauce. They would take apple sauce, stick a hole in it, and I don't know if they would lick it out or take their finger and leave their finger and get it out. But they loved the apple sauce.

1:03:13 But I don't know how it was cleaned out every time, as if you had not only ate it all, but washed it out clean. That's how clean it was. So they would do that too, And I can tell you also they let us know on certain occasions what flavor they like, so one Christmas they had changed it. Let me go back just a little bit. When we first got there, there were four of them. There was an adult male, adult female, a juvenile, and a young one. Now, the reason I know that is they got but when we built the trust with them, they quit hiding their footprints.

1:04:01 So I can tell you the dimensions off their footprints. The juvenile was weird because the juvenile only had four tones, but it was real narrow. It was like nine and a half inches. The adult male was nineteen and a half inches and ten and a half inches wide. The adult female at the time was like thirteen and a half inches eight inches wide. Now it's fourteen and a half eight and a half inches wide. And the little one was about six and a half inches long in about three inches wide three to four inches wide, so there were four. All of a sudden, they started marking their trails again. They liked to mark their trails with things that are white colored because they can see them better at night. And it made no sense to me, why are they marking their trails. They found some white PBC pipe from somewhere and they were ten foot long.

1:04:57 They put them on the ground. One was point out at the gift, the gifting station where we put the food, and another one's pointing at the big trail where you go where I put the apples at. Then on other trails, I saw where they had the big PVC pipe. Then I saw one that was actually leaning up in a bush. Now this was about four foot long, but it was pointing up in there. So went and I looked, and they were marking danger. There was a horning's nest just inside the woods in a tree that it was pointing out. So not only were they marking trails, but they were marking danger. Noway, I forgot to say it, but we had had a couple of people come there. They actually found out that when they hit our house that they actually broke the brigs from the top of my wife's window all the way to the reef, just broken all the cracked all the way up the hiss. The hit was so hard. They found footprints, tree break sheep, things tied together, trees tied together, all kinds of stuff. So they have found a lot of stuff like that. But anyway, they were marketed. All of a sudden, I started seeing the male by the way comes and goes. He's not here all the time. The male will be here two to three weeks when the adult female has a baby, to take care of, getting food and protect them all

1:06:28 while she's taking care of the baby for two to three weeks. The mature females here all the time, and then the young ones were there all the time. But I started seeing the mature female, and I started seeing two to three juveniles and two babies in a young one or so, and I'm like, wait a second, well, what's going on here? Then I told my buddy that I talked to a lot all the time, and he said, yeah, you now have a nursery, And I said, what he said, they have made your place a nursery. It's a safe soul for them. There's plenty of food. They trust you, they respect you. So they have made your location a nursery where the big the mom ma sure mom takes care of them and has the juveniles as helpers to take care of the babies. I said, that's crazy. All of a sudden, I started hearing blue jays on the property like crazy. Now, the blue jays. I grew up.

1:07:40 Where I grew up, there were blue jays, but we had never have blue jays here. We'd have bluebird but not blue jays. I'm hearing blue jays everywhere, and I want to let you know that every time I walk out of the house, I've got blue jays sounded off. That when I've got windows open on the inside, you can't hear any blue jays until I walk out, or I got crows sounding off when I walk out. Now, the crows don't fly off like they normally would when they're scared. It's like they're watching me. They're like their lookouts, and they let them all know when I come out of the house, which is really kind of need too. They have their own lookout system. But when they made the nursery going into the winter, I wanted to put some extra protein out there because I realized that they're eating habits chained to more protein heavy stuff than sweet stuff.

1:08:32 Because I would put honey, ground crackers out, I would put noted butters out, you know, all kinds of different stuff. And oh, one one container was always had two or three types of different cereal in it, So adding another plastic bend and I put doghood in it. And I had tried salmon, because they really love thish. They go in and out of the plant all the time, and so I'm like, I tried salmon one time, and they really like the salm. So I started putting salmon flavored dog food in the first two bens, and then the cereal and the other one, then the other stuff. And again we didn't do that all the time. They didn't have food down there all the time. So just to let you know, I couldn't afford that even if I wanted to.

1:09:22 I can barely afford doing what we were doing to learn from them. But anyway, so I was putting two bags of salmon. Well, I'd go to Walmart one day, and Walmart's got one bag of chicken in one bag of salad, so they don't have two bags of salmon. So I do pick a salmon, then a chicken, put them in the first two containers, and then put this stuff in out the next morning. Now, when I would go put stuff out for them, I would drive the side beside into the barn, and there's a trash can outside of it. I would put all the trash in, all the trash in it. The trash can was empty when I put it in. That it's one of those huge trash hands you put by the road. I'm as tall and long as that warm as I am. I can't reach to the bottom of it. And the bags that I put in there were in the bottom. I go out to my car, I start to get in my car, and right where I still to get into my care is the salmon flavor doll food bag. Yeah, that's right, It's right where I steal. So I said, wait a second, they're sending me a message. They want salmon.

1:10:39 They don't want chicken, they want salmon. But I had to verify that. So I go get the cybe beside and run down there. And sure enough, the salmon was eight almost down to the bottom, and they hadn't hardly touched the chicken. They were letting me know that they wanted salmon flavored doll food and not chicken. They found ways to let me know what they want in that neat. I mean, isn't that crazy how they find ways to let you know stuff like that. So we've had so many interactions with them, and there were learning curves that had to go on both sides. One of the learning curves was we had to find out what they didn't want us to do. We had to let them know what we didn't want them to do, which was basically looking at our windows, hitting our house, killing our dogs, are being bad to our dog. We actually one night we heard coming home real late at night from work, we heard a dog sounded like he was attacking something on the other side of the creek, and then it got grabbed. We always have our windows open when we drive onto the property so we can see deer just got water in the middle of the field, and we could hear all the frogs and stuff, so we like hearing it. We get down there and something has this dog and it is the most horrifying thing I've ever heard.

1:12:15 It was being ripped apart and made an example out of and my wife drove off the driveway. The horn yelled out the window. Stop that. Immediately the sound stopped there. It was not another single sound, and evidently when she said that broke its neck. But it was literally ripping that doll apart. So what happened was we think that the dog, it was a wild dog, was attacking one of the young ones or one of the babies, and one of the adults or juveniles grabbed the dog and it was making an example out of it. But we went and checked on our dogs because heared us to death.

1:13:00 We're like, oh my gosh, you know, we don't want to do this with our dog. So I went down there, and I had learned that if I say stuff out loud, and sometimes even in my head say understood what was, I will say it. And I think that's why they made the place to put an apple, because in my head I was saying, and I always I had another place to put an apple. I'm sure they did too, so they made the apple holders. But then again I tell people, I said, you know, they could have been just seeing me. Look around and figured that out. But there's so many other things that have happened that I know they can understand what we're saying, and they understand what I'm thinking. They understand my fault. And I could go over example example out of that because I actually did test on it, and nine out of nine I would ask them to do something if they got the message, and they would do it. This in my mind, this is just in my thoughts. I would say something like, hey, I want to know if you can read my thoughts, I'm putting this branch over here on this. If you can read my thoughts, take the branch and put it on the ground. Well, they do things in their own way.

1:14:17 And the thing I told them to put it on, I actually had made it in the beginning to get fingerprints, so they said I did one time I was doing the fingerprints and they understood what I was doing. They never went in it again. I had to lid if don't put food in it so I can get fingerprints off the top. I had part of European all over it. But to make a long story short, they picked the stick up and put a feather underneath it instead of taking it and putting it on the ground to let me know they got the message. Or I would say something like I give them a message and say, hey, I'm down here and i'm about reading. Leave if you can understand what I'm thinking, give me a treeknck. All of a sudden there'll be a tree knock, or there would be a I would say, give me a sign, give me some kind of vocalization that do a yahoo or a woop or something. So it was nine out of nine on it, so I knew they could. And one thing that was really neat one time is my wife and I weren't out at the pun, and the dull female loved to go into the pun.

1:15:24 Big for society will be right back after these messages. Here this print is where she had stepped out of the pun and her wet feet had picked up all the leaves. But yeah, the ground is so hard that it did not leave an impression. And when you take a picture with the camera flat, it's not three D. I can see and know it's a big foot. Pri you take a picture with a camera and people say you're a fake, you're a forgery because this is nothing but bare dirt. Well, they can't the camera doesn't take it in three D. They not looking at what I was looking at. Not only that, but I'd seen another prince leading to it, So that's one of the things.

1:16:26 But all of a sudden, behind one of the hills where the pulledover pushed up some dirt. On that occasion, I heard a tree branch snap. And this was a big tree on branch. This was about half as big around as a big person's wrist would be. And I will let you know by me being in the woods so much as a kid, I can tell you what is a natural tree break and what's not. And I'll kind of let you know how. Number One, if a branch breaks in a tree, you'll hear it falling through the limbs and then hitting the ground. When they break it, they hold on to it, or once in a while they'll throw it near you if they're trying to get you to leave or something. Now, they're deadly accurate with a rock or a branch. If they wanted to hit you, they could, but it never hits the ground when they break it. It never hits the ground. Not only that, but they don't take dead limbs and break them. They break live limbs. Are ones that have just come off to make a sharp Chris snap, So you can tell if a beekfoot is doing a branch break compared to something natural. And people that say that you can't their wrong.

1:17:49 You can. It's totally different. Anyway, the tree brand snails, so I just don't tell. My wife always say would give us some better prints so we could take better pictures. All of a sudden, after the tree brdge broke, I said, well, I guess they got the message. And we just kind of laughed. Now this thing was only twenty five to thirty yards away from us, but we're not in fear of them. We trust them. They actually will have helped us in certain situations pretended us, and so we're not afraid of them at all. But I said, I guess it got the message. Now, in the middle of the week one day, when I take the trash cans out, I went down to the gifting station and they're on the ground in this horrid sword packed clay is her print pressed down really hard to wear it and did it into the crowd. And she took a blue marble that was under the gifting station. And that's a whole nother story. In itself where one of the things I asked them to do. They got the messages to do something with the marble plate and at the gifting station it's got a little slit in between it into the plate and that, and just dropped it down in that little slit in the woods, as if you were putting a coin in a slot machine, and all the blue marbles had sand all over it. Underneath it. She had

1:19:22 taken a blue marble down, I mean, off the ground, wiped it off and put it in the middle of her footprint, as if to say, here's your print. So that's the kind of stuff that really was crazy. One time, the pun has water pumping out of it after the string out of the stream into the pund. The electric box for it is in the open sided bar, so one time he had to go work on it, and he wanted to turn the power off. But he called me and said, hey, there's thousands of bees. There's thousands of bees and stuff lying around in here. I can't get to the power to shut it off. And if I can't shut it off, then I can't do anything.

1:20:11 So I started describing what was going on. He said, under the sawdust there ever the deal. He was a torque. It's been pulled back and there's a bowling battle sized home under there, and they're coming out a graham and he described them to me, and in my head, the only thing I could think of was yellow jacket. That's the only thing I could think of. He got into a yellow jacket hole, so I said, go get some stuff and just sprail and kill them. So he went and got several chans and killed them on the side of the pond. Two days later, when we went back down there, there were two forty foot trees pushed into the pond, and I knew that they had done it.

1:20:56 There's nothing else to do that. We had tried to pull the trees with the four wheeler and couldn't get it to do anything to them. And here they are both pushed into the pod, and one didn't hit the other one. They were pushed in separately or at the same time with really long arms. So cools like this doesn't make any sense. We had to do something wrong to upset them. What happened? So I go look. I remember inside the bar, So I go look in the bar and in that bowling ball sized hole, and there's another one back behind it, and the one back behind it had a part of a honeycomb, and I said, there it is. I said, they knew that this these honey bees had honey down here. They knew this tark was here. They pulled this tart back, and when I went back and a looked at the picture, you can actually see the fingers where it stressed the tark where they pulled it up. They reached and grabbed the honey comb and went to take it off to eat it.

1:22:04 But we had killed their honey production. So they were upset at us because they would let it and go somewhere else and make honey, probably out of like onally a stump or a tree hole or something like that. But they were mad aus because we killed their honey production. And you know, some good honey sometimes really tastes good, and so I'm sure it would upset somebody. I had to take the side beside full power and the four wheel of full power for us just to drag those trees out of the punt. I mean they were huge, like I said, they were forty foot tall. So they were letting me know things not to do, and I would let them know things not to do. Just to let y'all know, I've seen four, and I have a real high standard of seeing things. In other words, whenever I'm for me to call it a siding, I've got to see a face. I've got to see hair or at the very metal, god know what, one hundred percent it's not any other animal. And if it doesn't mean that criteria, I don't call it a siding. I've got some that I have pictures of in trees looking at me, or in the woods looking at me where I zoomed in on it and I can see a face peering at me and stuff like that, I don't call that a siding. But I've had four of that I'm one

1:23:36 hundred percent old that they is society. And then I've got three that were babies, or I think there are babies that I'm ninety percent old. I've got to be above ninety five percent to know or one hundred percent to know that came anything else. And the babies move like a chimpanzee, So I don't call that a sighting. Even they had been playing with our dogs, and I've got to finish that story because I started and never finished it. But it was playing with a couple of our dogs where our dog would chase it, and then it would chase our dogs. And I saw it running around in the backyard right at dust. But I could figure out, I said, coin of animals injured to where it makes it run like that. And then on the second time I saw it, I realized that's not an animal.

1:24:28 That's whatever that is is moving like a chimpanzee. So it was a baby chasing the dog and stuff like that. But I've seen two chasing the dogs, and I'd seen one sliding down off of the gifting station. It would get up on the platform and it slid down like a little kid would off of the platform, on to the ground, go on all fours and go around it back on a trail where there's a huge vine that goes up into a really treated they would go up into for safety. But let me get back to the dog story. So the bigfoot killed this dog. We went down after that and told them that if they killed our dogs or hurt our dogs, that is a trust breaker for us. They're part of our family and we want you to never hurt them or anything. You know, never hurt them. All of a sudden, we had two dogs that were on the inside. They started every morning and every night going to the gifted station. One of them was a pit bull, which we ended up having to put him outside because when he started wanting to eat the furniture, that guy will be a little too expensive to keep him in the house. So he ended up having going to pen outside. Now we just have the little Yorky. What a pair. They were a white bulldog, a little bit Yorkie and the Yorky thought he was a boss. But the white pit bull will come back

1:25:59 and how pit marks on it, dirty fingerprints on it. Then I would start finding peanut butter rappers. I'd see it, biflip flop print going up to the fence, empty peanut butter rappers. And then I'd see crumbs on the other sides where they were feeding the dogs peanut butter crackers. I'm like, how crazy is that? Then I started seeing the little one, the little Yorky playing with the little babies, the babies, and I said that that's really neat because they have made a concerted effort to befriend the dogs so that they could meet what we wanted them to do.

1:26:43 There was one time that I had a I took my mom to the dark during the middle of the day, and they watch you all the time. They pattern you. They're great, it pattern you, but they're watching you all the time. And this was on the two o'clock in the afternoon. We were coming back from the doctor and as I'm going by the field, I saw something in the woods that I think the windows were so rolled down, but I saw something in the woods. Guma camera turned it old camera because there in the woods on the other side, about sixty five yards away is a face. It's shiny, like as if somebody had armor all of their dashboard. Now it's a light hand and the hair around it's dark black. So it stood out like crazy, and I took a picture of it. Again, I did not call it out of sighting. I could zoom it in and see it, but I did not call out of sighting because I wann't close enough to meet my criteria.

1:27:45 But then a few months later, maybe two to three months later, I'm sitting in the living room and I started seeing little prints come into our window. We had a bay window. They would look in the windows, started watching TV, and so I was sitting on the couch, had fallen asleep. It was about two in the morning. All of a sudden, I wake up. I look over there at the little Yorky and he's standing up on the art staring at the window. Not barking, not raising cane, nothing, just staring at the window. And I'm like, what are you staring at? I looked over there in the window, and in the front window that I can see, which is only about seven yards from me, is the face of the one that I saw in the woods looking in the window. Now, we had relatives come into the house in a few weeks, and some of all we're going to have to sleep in that room. I didn't want to freak them out, so I went outside and they had scrambled. They're super quick, and then they can move.

1:28:56 I told them, I said, I don't go in your bedroom and look in I do only expect you to look in our windows. And then the next day I saw why that one was in the front window, because there was another one in the back window that had fresh prints going there, and that one was in the front window. But believe it or not, they never come looked in the window again, never saw any more prints. So I would set the parameters on it the things that bothered us. They would set parameters on things with us that we wouldn't do. I can tell you they do not want us to take casting the prints. They do not want us to take pictures off them. What else? Oh, I can hear them sometimes coming down trees, are coming towards the gifting station when I'm putting stuff out, because they really like certain things. Everybody's got their own little things that they like a lot. And sometimes they would start coming before i'd even leave, because they wanted to get some of the all these sweet Granodle bars or honey Graham crackers or something that they really liked, and they wanted to get their first to get it, get their fair share. They don't want me running in the woods to get a look at them, so I don't.

1:30:14 I don't hear them coming down that are coming across, coming through the woods, coming across the creek. They would stop just far enough away that I couldn't see them. I get done, I'd get into cybe beside and say, okay, I'm done. Big for society will be right back after these messages. You can go ahead and come on, and I would go in the house. You know, knowing that they were going to come, but I never would make a move at them. And one of the reasons why is I heard we have a mama with twins one time and her priend was like seventeen inches long. She was dropping them off, and the twins were both like five inches long.

1:31:10 They were twins, so they were the same, and I saw the twins prints everywhere. One day, I heard the twins coming up down the fence, coming over to it, but they were talking to each other. So I had snuck in the woods and tried to turn my phone on a video so I could record them talking to each other. As they got about twenty yards away, one behind me, snout did a tree knock so loud that it actually blocked the slid from doing the sound on the phone because it was so loud. They were letting me know, no, you know, don't try to see that.

1:31:53 The little ones and stuff like that don't do it. So that's how I learned that they don't walk. Had to happen. But the only reason I was doing at that time is because I never really heard them communicating back and forth, and I was really interested in how they were communicating and stuff back and forth. They probably were talking about what they were going to take first and stuff like that and making deals with something. I don't know, but they were gathering away. And that's not the first time we heard it. We did hear some adults in their one time that we're talking back and forth in the woods, and it was very similar to the Sierra sounds. It really sounded like people, but you know it wasn't people because you couldn't understand it. And one was a deeper voice and one was a you could tell it was a higher toned voice, probably juvenile female, I would guess. So we would say parameters and the perimeters that we've said have really worked out great for us.

1:32:59 They when I do something wrong, don't think you're too old to be put in time out, because when I do something wrong, they start hiding their footprints again for one to two weeks. I have to apologize and tell them I won't do it again. And then after a week to two weeks they'll start leaving their footprints again. And they know I love footprints, and they leave all kinds of gifts. When they were looking in the window at the TV, we had a arrowhead collection next to the TV. They left us a gift of a rock.

1:33:40 It was a quartz rock, but it had an inclusion in the middle that was kind of oranges in color. It's really predd almost reminded me of et how it's heart glow, because it just was beautiful in the middle of it, but it wasn't I used to find them and study how they made them. It didn't look like it was made by an Indian as an erawhead because the weight wasn't even on each side and you see any chips on the edge, but it was shaped like an airhead. But they left that beautiful rock on the banister right next to where they stood so we would get it as a gift. I've seened it up and it's absolutely beautiful. Not only that, but they know I like footprints, so they have taken rocks made a base on the bottom of it by rubbing it down. I guess with their finger. I really don't know how they do it, to be honest with you. They got to be super strong in how mighty rough fingers to rub it down, But it looks like that's how they made it.

1:34:42 And on the top side of it they rubbed it, but they made the outline of a footprint on the top, and when they made the base, they made it angle so that you can put it on your desk like it's sort of like a picture, but not up that high, and it leaning up so you can see it better. I thought that was need. They've left rocks with lines in it where they gave us different lines and shapes in it. They've done all kind of given us all kinds of gifts. One time I asked them to give us a gift because it's been a while. I said, why don't y'all leave us a gift. We're out there at the burn pit burn can burning some trash. About a month later, we're bothing the burn cans to empty it because it was full, and right beside it, in between the breeks that we had and the burn can was a huge boulder that had never been there before.

1:35:43 So they must have left it there for us, knowing that we go there a lot, but we didn't see it right away. Took a lot to see it. But then he left another wear maroc for us. So there's just so many things, so many interactions we've had with them that is crazy much and how smart they really are and don't let people tell you that they're just an animal. I've learned that they are much more, much closer to humans than animals. Now, do they have to kill animals to eat for food, Yes, they have to survive. Do they eat raw fish, Yes, they have to. That's how they eat. Now. They eat meat and they eat green stuff. They eat both. They it sort of like a person. A person could eat meat and green stuff.

1:36:34 They do the same thing. But so a lot of people think that makes them an animal. Well he does, but realistically we eat meat, so somebody's killing it and we're eating it. So does that make us any better than them? No? I mean not really, it's just different. But they are very similar to people. They have they family, they will protect. There's almost always more than one nearby. I always say, I feed you the person trying to go kill one. It is bad, especially if there's a mail around. You can forget it if there's a male around, because they're built to protect the family. They just are.

1:37:22 I can tell you some stories with the Big One where it was like Jurassic Park moments where the ground was shaking and they were seventy yards away pushing trees that were forty to fifty foot tall because they wanted me to leave, and then I will go ahead and leave. Two weeks later, I find a baby print, and that's how I learned. The babies here are born in May to the first week of the last week of May to the first week in July. For the most part. Out of the ten babies that we've seen over that period of time, eight of the ten have been born between the last week of May and the first week of July. We had one that showed up in the winter, the first week of winter. Now, the baby Prince, the smallest one I've ever seen, four inches. Well, I call a baby. If something from four inches to six and a half inches, I call it a young one four and a half to six and a half, and I call a juvenile six and a half to twelve, and then anything over that I called an adult. Now that's just my standard how I think of it. There may be people smarter than me that have their old standard.

1:38:43 But I get to see so many prints. I had to make some kind of parameters for me to judge, Okay, what is this? But I usually can take a real good I get a real good feeling of what's here because they don't hide their prints, so it's I can tell you. One time i'm driving, my wife and I are driving down by the peach tree, and for some reason, a peach tree that they like the most, they left some peach pits on the fabric on the bottom. Before that, they had always taken the peaches pitting off. Now imagine the bid ones jaws are so strong they can just crunch up the peach pit and everything. I don't know about the young ones, but these peach pits are down there, and so I told my wife, I said, look, there's like eight or ten peach pits down there. I think they wanted us to plant some more of this type peaches for them, because this is the one they like.

1:39:44 I said, I need to look at the well, the little the kind of it is a little tag on it to see what kind it is, so I know what kind I need to get. But I didn't stop and take it off. Next time, I'm going up the road now as we're facing it, the peach trees on the right, the real on the left. The wind blows from left to right. That tag when we went the next time, was in the middle of the road, sitting on a tuff of grass so we could see it and have been ripped off. Now I'm like, wait a second, we were just talking about it and we didn't get it.

1:40:29 Now here it is ripped off and put on this little high piece of grass right in the middle of where we're dripping, so we can see it. I went to all the other trees and the tag are still all and if the wind was blowing it, the wind would have blown in the other direction. I'm like, you're that crazy. They were letting us know that they want some more of these peach trees, so they ripped the tag off and put it in the trail for us so we would remember to get it next time. It's crazy, Neil. It's it's absolutely wild this place you have. And I totally get why you're just saying it's in northern Georgia, because you really have. I mean, you have a nursery going on. That's a very special thing, for sure. Have you ever tried to capture any any audio on your property or does that also fall under how you're not really able to take video and other things like that.

1:41:31 Audio is okay as long as it's far enough away from them. Now I got in trouble one time because the boxes that I told you I put stuff in one time, I wanted to get try to hear them talking. So what I did was I took all of those boxes, put a recorder in it, and took the little black microphone. The end of it overlapped the end of the box, and I put the little microphone underneath it where you couldn't see it. The next thing I do do is I hear one walking out of the woods. I hear the microphone being pulled, and it was set on the marble plate on the white sand, as if to say, you're busted. We don't want you to do this now.

1:42:20 Because there's even more of that story that's kind of humorous. They wouldn't eat any food there for two weeks, but when I went back there a couple of days, oh and all night I could hear footsteps of the edge of the woods because they wanted to go get something to eat. And I think one of the adults said, they're playing games, don't go eat the food. But at the time I was only using two of the plastic buckets, and one all was on the ground. I didn't pick it up because I was walking underneath it, And so when I went back one time, all the foods were still there except the dog food was gone. The whole dog food bowl was empty. So I'm driving around it and the empty one on the ground it's gone. So I look at the empty one on the ground and I'm looking around for it, and they're in the woods behind some vines. Is the one that had the dog food with about an inch left in it. A juvenile probably was being a little smart but said, I'm hungry.

1:43:23 I'm going to stick this empty one up there, and I'm going to take this in there and eat it because we're not eating it that the thing where they're playing games at. They actually took it in the woods, but they I had to apologize and told them I wouldn't do that anymore for them to start leaving their prints and eating the stuff again. So they were serious about it. But when I have been away from them, I can hear them now. My biggest problem is I'm just like a regular person. I have a job I have to go to to earn a living, long hours, and I'm not good at taking the little disk that how twenty four to forty eight hours worth the recordings on it now I've heard though, how I've heard tree knocks like crazy. Of course I hear tree knocks like crazy, well, not like crazy. I hear tree knocks all the time of lots anyway, especially if the lights go off. If the lights go off of the house, I don't have four or five tree knocks going off around the woods as if they're saying, hey, you need us, is there anything we can do to help you? Know? Because it's different?

1:44:29 Is that the patterness there's always lights on. Our kids always leave lights on, so they used to do a bunch of tree knocks, but they don't mind it if it's far enough away. But youthfully, when they start sounding off, our dogs start going off, and it picks that up so much. I wish I had some maide with the little brown thing on it so I could just aim at at certain spots so it reduces that. But I've not been able to either find or do it so far. Then trying to get to the listen to the whole thing, I have to try to listen to the whole thing. Some people say you can go in audible and go through and find the little peaks and stuff. I've not learned how to do that. I've tried to put some disc in there due one time, and I was totally unsuccessful at it. But they don't mind me putting her coorders down there. I've heard the whoops, I've heard them talking.

1:45:24 I've heard the tree knocks. I've heard some amazing things they've done. Some kind of ceremony was doing on one time. It was crazy. But no, they will allow me to do it. I just can't do it right next to where they are. I have to do it, you know, fifty sixty yards away and do it and you can still hear them in the woods. Big for society, who will be right back after these messages?

1:46:08 I got another question for you. I do I do want to say thank you for spending your time so far as we As we talked about in the in the pre interview, this is a conversation that will probably take It's going to be a long conversation spread out among probably more than one episode for sure. But have you ever heard any singing on your property? I have never heard singing on the property. But I can tell you they love music. They absolutely love music.

1:46:49 I would put a speaker on the backboard sometime and play it and they like. There's this group called hold Pree, which is an acapella group. I love the sound of them. They'll come up at the edge of the woods and listen to that. And one time late at night, we were we don't care if they tapple on the door to let us know that they're the young one's like to do that sometimes. But my wife and I were in there, we were listening to We were just being in a silly mood. We were slaying in the kids. You know, we're gonna have something the next day with kids and relatives. So we were singing up put all the music real loud, and I was playing it from the TV I think probably on YouTube. And every time the music the soul would stop outside from the front on the front porch, one would tap at the door like teptoo touches. This happened like play another one, play another one, then another one would come home. Well when the polities would go tap tap, top top tap, because they would sneak up to the house and here wanting to hear the music as good as they can. I actually have one one time that during the middle of the night, I forgot I'd let the speaker on out there.

1:48:00 I pad into the bathroom. It was still on music, and it started playing it on the back force through the through the speaker. So I was like, okay, well I like that song. I want to listen to it. I listened to a couple of songs, and then I turned it over to a podcast about football out there right beside my car. Right in front of my car, I lose big huge trash head. One went waym and slapped the top of the trash head. I learned real quick. They didn't either don't like the football team that I like, or they liked wanted more music. So I puted on more music to let them listen to it until either the battery went dead or my pad you know, went quiet.

1:48:49 So but I can tell you they love music. They will He'll draw them in, especially if it's the type that they like. It's extremely interesting. There's a song I've heard that is very effective. I think it's called Ballero. It would be interesting if if you'd be able to track that down, maybe give that a try. It'd be totally different than what they were used to, but it has quite interesting drum beat to it that has been pretty effective over on the West Coast from what I hear. I've got something I want to do. Because the house is two story and there's a window up above it. I was thinking about playing music in the bag, putting some cut all logs out there for seats and the edge of trees, and getting up there with the thermal binocular.

1:49:40 I don't think that they can say that to get pictures of them coming up and sitting down listen to their music. The only problem, how is I know they can read my faults. Now I don't know if they can read everybody, so some people say it's some freaquent city or what not. I'm nothing special, but I know they can read my fault. So the only reason why I don't do it is for the simple fact that not that I think that they will see the thermal monocular, but the fact that I think they'll read in my mind what I'm doing, because they can read their consciousness and their subconsciousness. I've work. So that's the only reason why I don't do it. Because I would love to get a juvenile in a baby one on all fours quarter pit and then the juveniles walking up with it and sitting on the log listening to the muss, listening sitting on the stop listening to But it took so long to build up the trust in the respect. I'm just I'm afraid I will lose some of that, you know.

1:50:48 It's just it's not it's not a quick process. It's not you get both sides have to work at it for it to work the way it has. So that's that's one thing that the only reason I hadn't done that yet because I would love to get a good thermal picture off them walking up and moving and sitting like that. Man Neil, what a massive amount of things that have happened, and it feels like there's way more that you could share as well. I mean, I'd love it if you'd, you know, be able to if you'd be up for coming and back on the show sometime in the future, maybe we can set something up.

1:51:34 I don't have any problem that I've got probably over thirty hours worth of interactions like I've spatten off, one after another after another after another, because it happens all the time. There's something that happened this week would freak people out how it happened. But you know, there's things that they have special abilities that we can't really understand. But they have to prove to me at least nine times that they can do it before I will say yes, they can do it. Like yes, they can read my mind. I know for a fact they can put thoughts in my mind. There's a lot of things that they can do between. I can feel when I'm down there. I can feel things how do I put this? And then I sound weird. I can feel how they're feeling, like in other words. One day I was down there and I put out some stuff at the gifting station, and in the woods something groud at me twice. Well I knew what it was, and there is one of them, but I got the feeling was I was taken too long because I was taking pictures of prints and measuring them, and it was hungry and wanted me to leave so easy to get to the food. And I had to just kind to set it straight and say, look, this is a deal. Y'all leave me prints so I can

1:53:06 see them and keep up with all of y'all with stuff that's going on, and I leave you stuff to eat. It didn't make any more sounds. And then I let it know when I was leaving. But it was not a thing where I was scared at all because I could feel why they did it. And I know that sounds weird, but I've trusted our feelings and my wife and I and say should go sometimes, Well what are you feeling? I said, no, they they're just letting us know that they're there right now. You know, there's there's been some things where things have happened between her and a little baby, and so anyway, it's just weird. I can get feelings like that. But it's not only here.

1:53:52 It's at other places. And I go other places, they let me know they're there. Tree, not a whoop, crazy stuf. This pinion me, which is a weird thing by itself. So it's it's just really weird, but it's amazing at the same time, and I'm learning from it. And just imagine if they're in the woods. People always talk about how you can't How is it that something ten foots holl and weighs over a thousand pells can't be seen in the woods. Well, from what I've learned in a short period of time about wildlife and how they communicate, crows, how they give things away, the squirrels, all the animals, and people think they're quite going through the woods, people are allowed. I mean, they make a lot of noise going in the woods, so if they can tell what's going all around them. Some people say that they can tell, hear or feel the frequency of electronics. Some people say they can turn translucent or totally a visible I know that they can read my faults. If they can do one of those things and know what's going on around it, you hain't got a chance to see it unless it's just purely by accident or they want you to because they can slip around you. They can go up in a tree if they can turn translucent, and you can go right underneath them, look up in the tree and

1:55:23 you never see them. It blend in with the leaves. So it's amazing the ability of their house. Really, it really is. M Neil. I know we've talked about the Bigfoot talk dot com website, but what can people expect to find if they check that out, or is there also a way they can reach out to you as well. We have a website that's got a lot of information about the foot in it, the patterns that you can see in the woods, because the things they do are different than normal forest animals. What you can need to do if you think you've got some around your house and you don't want them there, what you can do to try to keep them away from your house, or things you can do if you want to try to befriend them, and you're not going to befriend every group.

1:56:20 You have to have they have to have the right mentality. And I've learned that the male is the one that says the rules. Now, the females have a lot of pull in it, but the males set the rules. And if the male has had a bad experience with humans, chances are you're never never going to really build a relationship or cohabitate with them anywhere like that we have here with this group. The female here really likes to be around us, and she's been able to influence the male that he tolerates it. But whenever he's here and there's a baby board, he doesn't warn us around. He wants to make sure everything is safe and make it go as smooth and easy as possible. But we have the website that's got that on it, and we have a Facebook page. It's also bigfoot talk dot com and it's got a lot of stories that we talk. We're talking about like this with pictures like the dog food bag that's right by my car where they will light the salmon type. I've got a picture of my car where it's city and everything like that. And oh, I did go back to the trash can and try to see if I could get the other one touched and get the other one and floor it out. Now I couldn't even touch the other bag because it was so far down there, and I've got long arms, but their arms are extremely long. But we have the Facebook page that people can see the stories out now. Also if

1:57:52 you're in the Atlanta area Alta, Georgia area, we are going to be putting on a conference it's called in count Owner's Conference twenty twenty five, twenty twenty five, where we are going to have a great group of people that are from a variety, but it's going to be concentrated on people that have seen them or done movies about them and researched them, and myself with you know, the cohabitation site, and we're going to try to do as much talking to people so we can share what we've seen with people. That's the whole idea for this conference, because when I go to conferences sometimes I get upset.

1:58:36 I've got three or four questions I want to ask, and I never get a chance to ask them, so I feel like, you know, I didn't learn all that I wanted to learn. Well, this one is going to be done in such a way that we are sharing it and let you ask questions so that we can help you answer the questions that you want to know. So be in all our website, I mean on the Facebook page is also a flyer for it, and maybe we can put one all this episode or something so people can see it. But that's going to be a really good thing because it's going to be totally different than the others thing the most most of the people go to, Oh yeah, absolutely.

1:59:21 I mean I've actually been looking into this one myself, and you've got some really it's not the normal people that you would see. What they're good people like. For example, you know a good friend of mine, Amanda, the Bigfoot lady from the Expedition Bigfoot Museum, is going to be one of the speakers. She's great. I mean, that's a great speaker to have for this first year of the conference. And I'd say definitely people check it out. We'll have links in the show notes, so people can all check that out. But Neil, it has been just such a fascinating listen to you. I've learned a lot through this one. And yeah, we will definitely be setting something up for you to come back on a later time to continue your accounts of what you've been experienced seeing down there in North Georgia. But thank you for coming on the show, Neil, and.

2:00:15 You're welcome, And I will answer anything because I'm not shy to answer anything, because that's why we're doing this. We're doing this to help tell people what we're seeing. You know, when people say, well you need to do this, you need to do that to give us proof. I'm a knowware of their existence. I'm not trying to prove to people they exist. I'm trying to share what we've learned about them because we have a unique situation to where we can see stuff that in a period of a month that some people for twenty years may not see. So we're trying to share that with the people that want to learn about them.

2:01:00 That's great, that's a great way to put it. Well, yeah, definitely listeners check out this upcoming conference and Neil Pleasure to talk to you on the show today and we'll definitely be in touch.
