Swampdogg & the Sasquatch

WEBVTT

1
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:15.599
We kind of spoiled our tires that
we always got stuck in there, and

2
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:19.760
we're panicking and I'm going out the
window through my friend. He was parked

3
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:22.320
in front of me. I mean
even going out the trail, like in

4
00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:24.320
front of me. I said,
yo, keet out of the way.

5
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:28.839
So I backed up and I went
on the grass. I went around him,

6
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:36.960
and as soon as I did that, he started moving and we just

7
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:42.280
got out of there, and honestly, we never went back there again.

8
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:00.000
Hight there. You're listening to the
Big Fast Society podcast. I'm Jeremiah Iron.

13
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:22.159
Great news. I did get back
from my Bigfoot expedition with Tate Horonymous

14
00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:26.560
and friends without an issue. You'll
hear more about that much later, but

15
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:30.519
I want to do a special thank
you to some more people that helped support

16
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.480
that expedition. Special thank you to
Scott Dee for buying two coffees. He

17
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:38.959
says, have fun going squatching.
Appreciate that, buddy, and also a

18
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.560
special thank you to someone for buying
five coffees. Good luck, and I

19
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:47.760
hope you come back with some great
stories. I will, I mean I

20
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:52.040
did. You're just not going to
hear him yet because my buddy Tate is

21
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:55.239

27
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:17.879
all right, big Forciety, We've
got the privilege of talking to a gentleman

28
00:02:17.919 --> 00:02:23.520
tonight. His name is swamp Dog, and he approached me letting me know

29
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:30.120
that he's got some really interesting things
to share that have happened over the years,

30
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.520
and so I'm just gonna say,
how's it going, swamp Dog?

31
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.039
Everything's going okay. Sorry, how
you doing. I'm doing good, having

32
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:43.520
a great labor day weekend and just
kind of starting to relax. But I

33
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:46.560
am excited to finally talk to you. I know, we've been going back

34
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:52.000
and forth for a few days,
and it's exciting to get this to work

35
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:55.120
out finally. So where are things? How are things going where you're at

36
00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.919
swamp Dog? The weather's nice?
You mean how Bilod, New Jersey.

37
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:06.240
I live in south southern New Jersey
area. I'm about an out and a

38
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.800
half hour, forty minutes away from
the Delaware Memorial Bridge and a half hour

39
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:15.520
away from the Philadelphia Bridge, I
mean the walt woman. So I'm I'm

40
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:24.960
out. I'm outside of un do
mean outside of the center city. My

41
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:35.520
area is more of of like farmland
and we have woods. I'm only I'm

42
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:39.840
only I say, about twenty minutes
away from Wharton State Bars out there by

43
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:44.960
Hammonton Township and all that. And
yeah, I mean I got forests and

44
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:49.960
farmland all the way around me.
So but uh, it's nice, hire,

45
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:54.240
I mean, you know, but
I am moving to eastern Tennessee in

46
00:03:54.280 --> 00:04:00.560
a couple of months, so I've
believe in here city and so that's just

47
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:06.639
that's the deal of this area here. And I'm just curious real quick how

48
00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:14.000
close are you to the Pine barrens? Uh? Wharton State Forest is the

49
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:18.560
Pine Bearns? Matter of fact?
I uh, do you mean? I'm

50
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:23.839
in the jeeps and I'm in the
four by fouring and that's where we go.

51
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:29.000
There's a lot of trails out there
that we go. We do a

52
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:33.079
lot of overland camping. I bow
hunt out there. Uh do you mean?

53
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:38.360
Do you mean I fish out there? It's a there's a lot of

54
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:40.959
a lot of a lot of acres, a lot of acres. I forget

55
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.600
how much it is, but it's
over a thousand acres out there. I

56
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:46.480
think it's like I don't know,
eight thousand acres that were saying, I

57
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:49.720
believe I don't know something like that. But there's other woods too, you

58
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:55.800
know. I mean there's a place
called U that's a winslow New Jersey.

59
00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:01.759
It's called Winslowe State Hours. If
you if you google, you'll see it.

60
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:04.959
You mean, that's a big place
out there too. You know,

61
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:10.959
we hang out in the woods out
there too, so but yeah, but

62
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:14.000
we have woods all all there around
me, you know what I mean?

63
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:18.000
For the pine barons, I know
that real good. Oh, I'm extremely

64
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:23.959
interested to hear what you have to
share. I know a little bit about

65
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:27.000
the Pine Barrens. I read some
books about it growing up, and there's

66
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:30.959
some weird stuff that happens in us. Yere's a lot of weird stuff going

67
00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:34.920
on in Pine Barons. I mean, it's like I said, I've been

68
00:05:34.920 --> 00:05:40.800
going through there. I'm fifty two, and I've been going through there since

69
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:45.639
I was like I'm seventeen, eighteen
years old. So you know, I'll

70
00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:50.680
tell you so because a lot of
weird stub goes on in there. It's

71
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:55.920
a real nice place, you know
during the day, but when the sun

72
00:05:55.959 --> 00:06:00.839
goes down, it's a real spooky
area. And it doesn't matter where you

73
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:02.839
go, it is spooky. I
mean, you know, I mean,

74
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:05.120
I'm not thought they wanted to says
it. I mean a lot of my

75
00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:09.879
friends say it to you know.
So when we build a campfire, you

76
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:12.800
know, we kind of build a
big one, you know what I mean.

77
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:18.120
Yeah, yeah, But there's a
lot of stories coming out there,

78
00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:23.079
you know what I mean. I
mean, Jimmy, they say, like

79
00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:28.279
me, they got a dream,
the people have seen the sasquatch out there,

80
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:33.920
and gar me, they talk about
the Jersey Devil. But I really,

81
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.879
I really don't believe in the Jersey
Devil. But you mean, I

82
00:06:36.920 --> 00:06:42.560
heard a lot of stories and I
heard a lot of people talking about that,

83
00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:45.560
you mean, their encounters with that. But I think I don't know

84
00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:53.560
as far as doing me big book
goes. I can see it in that

85
00:06:53.720 --> 00:07:00.279
area because if I wanted to,
and let's say I wanted to get away

86
00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:04.560
from everybody and hide, I'd be
one place I can hide and nobody will

87
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:08.839
ever find me. So I mean, that's how I think it is out

88
00:07:08.879 --> 00:07:14.639
there. So you know, and
then in Jersey, you know what I

89
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:17.519
mean, a lot of people say, oh, there's no rattlesnakes in Jersey.

90
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:23.079
There's rattlesnakes, and there's plenty of
them out there, because like I

91
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:27.959
said, you know what I mean, I walk through there. I do

92
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:31.519
my full by fouring out there,
you know, I mean, I look

93
00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:35.560
for doing different places to hunt,
me for the fall hunting and all that.

94
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:39.839
And you can get as back there, you know what I mean.

95
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:45.480
I can see how you probably got
the name swamp dog. Yes, I

96
00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:49.079
was always in the swamp. I
was always in the swamp with my four

97
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:54.000
by four is you know what I
mean, And everybody just called me swamp

98
00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:58.839
dog. So yeah, that's how
I got that. I'm loving it.

99
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:03.600
Well, let's what kind of things
have you run into? Because I'm guessing

100
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:05.920
if you're going out there, swamp
dog, you're running into some stuff.

101
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:18.680
Yeah, out there, I never
had a I've never seen anything, but

102
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:31.079
I heard things like as far as
do I mean, I mean, like

103
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:39.120
France snapping or some weird noises like
howls and stuff. I did hear that

104
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:41.240
out there. But do you mean
I've never seen nothing out there, but

105
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:46.000
you mean I did hear stuff like
that. And you know, I've never

106
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:52.200
heard nothing like wood knock or nothing
like that, just like howls and but

107
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.840
do mean they got coyotees out there
and stuff. But it wasn't no coyote,

108
00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:03.279
you know what I mean. It
was a look like the sounds that

109
00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:07.919
I used to hear out there.
You had to have some real big lungs,

110
00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:11.279
you know what I mean. And
it wasn't oko. So you know,

111
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:16.559
that kind of raised the hair on
my neck and my arms a little

112
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:20.440
bit. But you're only here for
a few minutes, or you might hear

113
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:26.159
for ten minutes and then you don't
hear nothing no more. But I always

114
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:30.919
stay close to the truck, do
you know what I mean? And I

115
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.879
always make sure the keys were indignition
because I didn't want to if I ever

116
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.399
counted something out that a way,
I didn't want to be looking for my

117
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:45.679
keys. I always had the keys
indignition. So but yeah, but yeah,

118
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:48.879
that area out there, it's do
you mean there's a lot of a

119
00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:58.320
lot of people talking. I remember
I always started bow hunting. U let

120
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:00.480
me see how long ago was.
I don't know, maybe like it's ten,

121
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.360
I don't know about ten fifteen years
ago. And I never hunted when

122
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:09.879
I was a kid or nothing.
I got into it because when I married

123
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:15.480
my wife, her family they all
bow hunted, and you mean they all

124
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:20.919
they all used doing shotguns for hunting
and all that stuff, and I always

125
00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:22.919
wanted to do it, but I
never did. But then when I married

126
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:28.000
my wife, I got into it
because my brother in law and my father

127
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:33.200
in law and everybody. And then
I got into about fifteen years ago,

128
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:39.039
you know what I mean. So, so I used to hunt out there.

129
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:43.600
And I have a friend of mine. I don't want to mention his

130
00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:48.440
store because he don't even know that
that I'm talking to you right now,

131
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:56.200
but anyway, he owns a gun
shop. And it's a gun shop slash

132
00:10:56.399 --> 00:10:58.159
hunting shop, you know what I
mean, Like you mean they do they

133
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:03.360
do work on gun They sell guns
and bows and everything and all kind of

134
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:07.759
hunting equipment and that mean it's a
really nice little place. But but when

135
00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:16.559
I first got into hunting and I
got my first bow, do mean the

136
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:22.279
old timers that you mean used to
sit out our phone of the story,

137
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.360
like on the ports and tell stories
and stuff. I used to say that,

138
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:30.279
you know, I want to I
want to stalk a deer. You

139
00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:31.759
mean, I want to be up
in a tree stand or I don't want

140
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:37.159
to be like give me behind a
blind. I want to actually hike and

141
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:39.480
I want to be able to stalk
a deer and all that stuff. And

142
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:43.480
I said, and then camp out
there, you know, I mean like

143
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:46.399
maybe a couple of days or a
week, you know what I mean,

144
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.320
just bowl hunt, you know what
I mean. And they used to tell

145
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:56.360
me, like like these guys were
like in the seventies and eighties, and

146
00:11:56.080 --> 00:12:01.000
they used to tell me when I
go out there, you know what I

147
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:05.679
mean, to be careful because there's
things out there. And I'm like,

148
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:07.799
oh, you're talking about like the
Jersey Devil. He said, no,

149
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:13.360
there's there's just things out there and
you have to be careful and you got

150
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:16.919
to know your surroundings, you know
what I mean. They were trying to

151
00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:24.960
get me, like one of them
talks like you know and all that stuff.

152
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:28.399
I'm like, okay, so you
know, and I didn't when they

153
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:30.679
were talking about like I said,
because you mean, I've been going in

154
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:35.440
there since I was eighteen years old, you know what I mean? And

155
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:39.399
uh, I kind of knew what
they were saying, but I never but

156
00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:45.039
you really got into it, you
know, with them, because at that

157
00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:48.480
time, I really didn't want to
talk about what I hear things or you

158
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:52.080
don't know whatever, you know what
I'm trying to say. I wasn't you

159
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.559
know. I didn't want people to
think I was crazy, you know.

160
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:58.600
But they were trying to tell me
too. But I guess they felt the

161
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:01.279
same way. They didn't want to
get into it or just say I was

162
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:05.799
just be careful out there because there's
things out there, you know. Sure,

163
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:09.240
sure, but you didn't press the
issue to find out exactly what they

164
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:13.960
were saying. You want to be
cool, you know, yeah, right

165
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.320
right? You know, And I
mean I didn't want you know, at

166
00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:18.919
the time, I was like,
you know, I didn't want people to

167
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:24.519
think I was crazy or not or
have I mentioned it I've seen stuff,

168
00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:28.240
or have I her stuff. I
don't want to think I was crazy,

169
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:31.120
you know, because around here and
you know what, I noticed that too.

170
00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:35.399
It don't matter where you go,
like in this country, if you

171
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:41.360
try to bring something up to a
hunter, they will always deny it and

172
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:46.600
they will always call you crazy a
lot of times, you know what I

173
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:52.320
mean, Like you know, it
seems like they don't want to hear about

174
00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:56.120
it or or give mean, they
don't want to talk about it, you

175
00:13:56.120 --> 00:14:01.799
know what I'm saying. Like you
know, I used to get that a

176
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:05.200
lot, you know what I'm saying, like you know, or or we're

177
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:09.279
talking around the campfire, you know
what I mean. And let's say somebody

178
00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:13.600
had mentioned something big foot. Nobody
wants to talk about it. That's a

179
00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:16.679
myth, uh, you know,
and then you will change the subject.

180
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:22.039
So I mean, I noticed that
with hunters, so you know, absolutely

181
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:26.840
it's it's hard to get hunters to
talk. And usually they are not with

182
00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:31.480
their buddies when they finally talk,
because you know, they want to keep

183
00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:37.519
up that appearance and not be looked
at as crazy or something. But yeah,

184
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:39.279
yeah, well you mean I'm the
same way. I mean as I

185
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:41.879
got told you. You know,
I don't want to talk about it or

186
00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:43.960
say anything about it, you know
what I mean, because I don't want

187
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:48.480
people to think I was crazy,
you know what I mean? So but

188
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:50.720
yeah, do you mean I can
understand it, you know what I mean?

189
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:56.879
But yeah, they're mean Jersey is
a small state. As you were

190
00:14:56.919 --> 00:15:01.559
connected to Pennsylvania, New York,
upstate New York. Uh, we're connected

191
00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:09.320
to Delaware. You know it's I
got Delaware, I got the different Pennsylvania,

192
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:13.399
and then you know I got like
New York. So so we're connected

193
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:18.240
going to those three states, you
know what I'm saying. And you know

194
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:24.840
it's it's like, you know,
we had signs, I mean about like

195
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:31.679
twenty years ago. I mean they
had signs. Different people have seen the

196
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:39.320
you know, cougars out of here. We'll be back with more bigfoot society

197
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:46.559
after these words from our sponsors.
And it's kind of weird because you know,

198
00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:50.679
I've never seen one, but I
mean I heard people talk about it.

199
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:52.559
They'll be like a new deer stand
and like you know, fifty yards

200
00:15:52.559 --> 00:16:00.279
away. I mean they'll see they'll
see like a cat well back well by,

201
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.159
you know what I mean. And
you know I have never seen one,

202
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:06.480
but I mean I heard people talk
about it, you know. So

203
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:08.440
you know, it's so assuming.
It's a lot here in Jersey that people

204
00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:12.080
will say, oh, that's New
Jersey. Everybody thinks it's like New York

205
00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:15.480
City, but it's not because I
don't hear where I live. It's like

206
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.200
I say, it's all woods and
farms, you know what I mean,

207
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:22.200
And it's you. I mean this
A lot goes on down here, you

208
00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:30.519
know that. You know, people
doesn't know about you know, so sounds

209
00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:36.759
like a lot of hidden stuff.
Has there ever been a time when you

210
00:16:36.840 --> 00:16:41.639
were out in the woods and you
know, stuff started happening. You're like,

211
00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:44.279
I don't know if I really want
to be around here right now.

212
00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:57.639
There have been times where I'll be
I'll be walking through a trail or I'll

213
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:06.559
be walking through a game trail and
my wife is with me, and you

214
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:10.119
know, I mean we're just going
for like a nature walk, you know,

215
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:18.680
and I'll have a bad bad do
me, like, give me like

216
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:23.799
a feeling, give me bad feelings, and it's just I know there's something

217
00:17:23.920 --> 00:17:30.839
there. I look around, I
don't see nothing, I don't hear nothing.

218
00:17:30.559 --> 00:17:36.000
But did you mean I feel something? You know what I mean?

219
00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:38.160
And I just like, let's just
go back to the truck, you know.

220
00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:42.480
And and yes, she'd be like, wow, what happens. I'll

221
00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:45.599
just go back to the truck.
And I don't feel right, you know.

222
00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:51.720
So but you know that happens sometimes
to me, you know. So,

223
00:17:53.839 --> 00:18:00.119
yeah, I mean, and the
reason why I feel that sometimes and

224
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:06.880
you know, I don't know it's
good my sightings and I know they're here,

225
00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:18.599
but I don't know if and I
get like spooked because my because my

226
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:22.319
fightings in the past, So you
know what I mean. So you know

227
00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:25.000
it's kind of weird, you know. I mean, I mean, you

228
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:26.000
know, it's just I mean,
I just feel things, you know what

229
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:30.720
I mean. I just feel it, and it feels like somebody's watching you,

230
00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:36.400
or it seems like somebody's watching every
move you make, and it's like,

231
00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:38.279
you know, I just like,
let's go back to the truck.

232
00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:45.079
Oh, I get it. It's
like you're you're opened up to realizing what's

233
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:49.640
really going on around you. It
sounds like you've had a few sightings in

234
00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:55.519
the past, and and those must
have affected you in some way. I'm

235
00:18:55.519 --> 00:19:03.839
curious what kind of things did you
experience. Okay, back in nineteen eighty

236
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:11.680
nine, I was a senior in
high school. It was it was in

237
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:21.359
October, and I had a girlfriend, and I was with my friend of

238
00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:25.519
mine, my best friend at the
time, and he was with his girlfriend.

239
00:19:25.640 --> 00:19:34.319
So at the time, I had
a Poniac what was that, the

240
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:41.640
Fierro. You remember the Poniac Fierros, Those little cars kind of looked like

241
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:47.759
Corvette's two theaters. Oh yeah,
okay, I had one of them,

242
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:56.799
and he had a Camaro. So
up the road from me. Amount of

243
00:19:56.839 --> 00:20:00.720
fact, it's about a mile as
about a mile away from where I'm not

244
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:11.599
right now talking to you. It
was it was an old abandoned airport that

245
00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:14.440
you mean they used to have the
crop planes, you know, I mean

246
00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:18.640
those those little planes that's fraid the
farms and stuff, you mean, the

247
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:25.000
fields, And they had a garage
over there where they used to work on

248
00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:26.880
these crop planes. And I mean
they used to have like, I don't

249
00:20:27.119 --> 00:20:32.039
like three or four of them over
there park. But they had a little

250
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:45.240
dirt trail on the other side of
the airport, and this was almost around

251
00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:48.279
a corner from the industrial park.
But I mean they had a couple of

252
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:55.759
warehouses back there. And I don't
know whether you know how the the ground

253
00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:59.559
is over here, but when you
go out in the woods, it's like

254
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:08.839
a they call it. They call
it sugar sand. And we should have

255
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:12.240
known better, because you know,
we don't. At the time. We

256
00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:15.839
didn't have no four by four's,
no trucks or nothing. And if you

257
00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:21.440
remember the Faeriro, it was only
maybe two or three inches off the ground,

258
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:22.759
you know what I mean. This
as a set, you know,

259
00:21:23.480 --> 00:21:27.559
And I guess the Camaro was the
same way. But we were dumb,

260
00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:33.359
and we took the girls out there
to the airport, you know what I

261
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.720
mean, and we're doing what teenagers
do, you know, listening to music,

262
00:21:38.160 --> 00:21:42.119
but then you mean making out stuff
and all that stuff, you know,

263
00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:48.839
And so we went down this trail, almost got stuck going in,

264
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:53.200
but we made it to the grass
spot and we were all right. So

265
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:59.440
we parked and we were hanging out
and all that stuff and talking and all

266
00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:08.920
that stuff, and we were there, i'll say about twenty minutes and no

267
00:22:10.039 --> 00:22:18.680
more than a half hour, and
we were hanging outside the cars. My

268
00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:29.200
girlfriend at the time, she was
leaning on my door and we were like,

269
00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:33.720
how getting kissing all that stuff.
And my friend of mine who was

270
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:37.480
parked like catty corner and he was
doing the same thing. And I think

271
00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:40.839
we were listening to Moli Crew or
something, you know, back in the

272
00:22:40.920 --> 00:22:47.039
day, back in the day.
But anyway, it was a full moon

273
00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:53.599
that day, and I remember this
like it was like yesterday. Something caught

274
00:22:53.640 --> 00:23:06.200
my eye and I looked up and
at the airport, they had like a

275
00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:11.599
little hill that went up I'm making
like six feet high, you know what

276
00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:18.200
I'm saying, Like you mean,
And I looked and I see something moving

277
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:26.759
and I'm like, oh, well, what I'm saying to myself, what

278
00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:33.279
is that? You know what I
mean? Because and you mean, I

279
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:34.759
would say that just like dumb thought. Again, you mean, at first

280
00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:45.400
I thought it was a person and
it was standing there and I could see

281
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:52.000
it because of the move was bright. It was about I don't know,

282
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:56.559
maybe fifty to eighty yards away from
me, you know what I'm trying to

283
00:23:56.599 --> 00:24:03.160
say. And I'm looking at it, and then I started walking towards the

284
00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:10.720
left and then was walking towards the
right. Like going back and forth,

285
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:14.319
back and forth, and I'm thinking
myself, what this guy doing? This

286
00:24:14.400 --> 00:24:18.000
guy, this guy on drugs or
you know what I mean, as you

287
00:24:18.079 --> 00:24:19.839
are a drunk, or what is
he? I mean, you know,

288
00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:25.359
because it was like a game warden
or something, I'm pretty sure they would

289
00:24:25.400 --> 00:24:30.440
be coming straight to us, you
know. But this thing was walking right

290
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:33.799
to the left, right to the
left. And I did it like four

291
00:24:33.880 --> 00:24:38.839
or five times, and then I
said, my friend, I said,

292
00:24:38.920 --> 00:24:45.279
yo, I said, what is
that. That's a guy over there walking

293
00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:51.720
back and forth. Then and he
comes walking towards me, and he said,

294
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:57.119
I don't know what he said.
Whatever it is this it looks like

295
00:24:57.160 --> 00:24:59.920
a big dude, you know,
I mean, this is how he used

296
00:24:59.920 --> 00:25:03.039
to talking. And I said,
yeah, he's big because I'm six two

297
00:25:04.519 --> 00:25:11.000
and I think i'm big. When
I saw that thing, I said,

298
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:14.920
that's big. You know what I'm
saying. I mean, you know,

299
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:25.440
And we kept looking at it,
and I says, yo, I don't

300
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:30.720
feel right. Let's get out of
here. So when we were getting ready

301
00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:37.519
to open the doors to get in
the vehicles to all right about forty yards

302
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:45.440
away to all right now, I'm
looking straight at this thing and towards my

303
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:51.359
right. I heard a tree branch
break, and when we heard that,

304
00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:59.519
everybody jumped on the cars and I
jumped in the cars and we just started

305
00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:04.160
the cars up and we took all
and we have remember the circus saying that,

306
00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:10.240
Like I mean I was telling you
about. Yeah, well we kind

307
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:14.440
of spot our tires that we always
got stuck in there, and we're panicking,

308
00:26:15.079 --> 00:26:17.839
and I'm going out the window to
my friend. He was parked in

309
00:26:17.839 --> 00:26:19.240
front of me, I mean,
even going out the trail, like in

310
00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:22.279
front of me. I said,
yo, keet out of the way.

311
00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:26.799
So I backed up and I went
on the grass. I went around him,

312
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:33.920
and as soon as I did that, he started moving and we just

313
00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:40.240
got out of there, and honestly, we never went back there again.

314
00:26:40.720 --> 00:26:45.640
So, like I was telling you, one time, I was talking to

315
00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:53.200
carry Arnold and he was telling me, well, that sounded like that guy

316
00:26:53.319 --> 00:26:57.519
was trying to get her attention.
So there was one on the right about

317
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:04.200
forty yards away that was coming towards
us, and I don't know whether they

318
00:27:04.200 --> 00:27:07.599
wanted to jump us or what,
you know what I mean, but this

319
00:27:07.599 --> 00:27:15.759
guy wanted our attention. So so
you know, Carrie was telling me that

320
00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:23.960
most likely it was trying to get
our attention, knowing that they had another

321
00:27:23.960 --> 00:27:30.119
one of these creatures on the right
of us that was coming towards us,

322
00:27:30.160 --> 00:27:32.960
you know what I'm saying. But
then when we heard the tree branch,

323
00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:38.759
let you break, and it snapped, like it wasn't a little give me

324
00:27:38.799 --> 00:27:48.200
a twig or something, it was
a big you mean, like I don't

325
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:49.599
know, it sounded like a shotgun. That's how a lot of was.

326
00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:52.720
Yeah, I mean, I mean
this thing went cratch, I mean boom,

327
00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:56.400
And I'm like, that's when we
jumped in a car that we took

328
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:03.119
off, you know, and we
never back there again, and you know,

329
00:28:03.480 --> 00:28:08.920
we like you actually, you know, we just so then what happened

330
00:28:10.079 --> 00:28:14.440
was we dropped the girls off at
the house and we met up at a

331
00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:18.240
diner and and I was like,
yo, dude, what was that?

332
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:22.920
And he said, I don't know, but he said, whatever that thing

333
00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:26.160
was, that thing was big.
Because I'm six two, like I said,

334
00:28:26.920 --> 00:28:30.880
and my friend he's about six one. I don't know, maybe you're

335
00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:37.599
six two two, But he says
that thing was big. And I said,

336
00:28:37.640 --> 00:28:42.279
yeah, that thing was huge.
But the trees, the branch that

337
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:48.039
snapped, that sounded like a gunshot. I mean, let me just have

338
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:49.519
a tongue. It's not like a
rifle or something. You know. I

339
00:28:49.599 --> 00:28:52.640
just went boom, like you know, I'm like, what the heck?

340
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:56.759
And we, like I said,
we jumped in our cars and we took

341
00:28:56.839 --> 00:29:03.000
off like we looked at wild rabbits
learning around. That's you know what I'm

342
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:07.240
saying. It sounds funny now to
me, but you mean, like at

343
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:10.200
the time, it wasn't funny because, like I mean, we're trying to

344
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:11.119
get in their cars fast, you
know what I mean. It's like,

345
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:17.000
you know, but that was my
first encounter, and I had never said

346
00:29:17.079 --> 00:29:22.480
nothing to nobody. My friend of
mine, me and him, we never

347
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:29.119
talked about it ever again, and
we just never went back there, you

348
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:33.480
know what I'm saying. But the
funny part is about this area here where

349
00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:40.599
I got my first sighting. When
I met my wife that I'm married to

350
00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:45.880
now, her father used to live
in Violin, and he moved the Gloucester

351
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:52.000
City, New Jersey, but when
he was a kid, he was a

352
00:29:52.079 --> 00:30:03.200
teenager, he lives in Violin.
So I I never told my wife's the

353
00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:11.920
story until after my fallow told me
his story and We're sitting arm around the

354
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:18.839
table having coffee in bagels, and
my wife told my follow out, well,

355
00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:21.920
you know, we were a boyfriend
and girlfriend at the time, but

356
00:30:22.039 --> 00:30:23.240
you know what I mean. But
you mean I went over to meet the

357
00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:30.599
parents, you know. So he's
like, well, She's like, dad,

358
00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:37.319
I'll tell you about the thing you
saw when you were a teenager out

359
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:45.559
there. We'll be back with more
big Foot society after these words from our

360
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:52.640
sponsors. And like, I'm like, what do you talk to me?

361
00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:59.559
I forgot all about my first encounter. So he was saying, yeah,

362
00:30:59.559 --> 00:31:03.799
I don't want to talk about it. And and so my wife was like,

363
00:31:03.880 --> 00:31:07.799
ahead, I tell him, tell
him what the story. So he

364
00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:12.319
said, when he was fourteen years
old. Now he was sixty seven at

365
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:18.079
the time, I believe when he
was telling me that this is the story.

366
00:31:18.759 --> 00:31:22.400
But he said, when he was
fourteen years old, him and his

367
00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:32.200
friends used to camp at that airport
where I'm telling you about. But like

368
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:33.599
at that time, when he was
a kid, it wasn't an airport,

369
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:40.000
you It was just all fifty olds
and goes all the way around. So

370
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:45.279
he was telling me that the Jimmy
they were pitching their tent and it's like

371
00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:49.480
eight nine o'clock at night. They
made a little camp fire because they were

372
00:31:49.480 --> 00:31:57.240
gonna do you mean that they were
cooking hamburgers or something or or hot dogs.

373
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:08.160
And my father in law at the
time, he looked up on the

374
00:32:08.359 --> 00:32:13.440
same exact hill that I was telling
you about where I got my first encounter,

375
00:32:14.200 --> 00:32:22.480
and he saw this thing walking and
watching them, walking and watching them.

376
00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:27.759
And when he was telling me this
story, every hair on my body

377
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:36.799
just went up, and I was
like, I don't know that, Like,

378
00:32:36.920 --> 00:32:39.960
it's scared the hell out of me, because I knew what he was

379
00:32:40.079 --> 00:32:45.920
talking about, because they saw what
I saw. But he was fourteen years

380
00:32:45.960 --> 00:32:49.519
old at the time, and he
said and when he was telling me that,

381
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:55.920
he was sixty seven, so you
know. So then I told him,

382
00:32:57.000 --> 00:33:01.559
but I what had happened to me
and what I've seen and what my

383
00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:07.079
friends seen, and he was like, yeah, there's stuff out there,

384
00:33:07.279 --> 00:33:10.960
and you know, and uh,
but he said, it walked away from

385
00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:16.799
them, But but I hung around
for about three or four minutes, he

386
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:23.079
said, and I walked away.
But he said it was walking along this

387
00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:29.279
hill, like on top of the
hill, and and it was watching them,

388
00:33:30.240 --> 00:33:34.920
and then it walked away. And
he said he never saw it again

389
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:39.319
ever. And then after that,
a couple of weeks later, I guess

390
00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:44.480
they had moved to Gloucester City,
him and his mom and dad or whoever.

391
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:47.839
So, but yeah, that's so, I see that's two encounters in

392
00:33:47.920 --> 00:33:54.920
the same same exact area. That's
that's incredible. So he has a part.

393
00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:59.640
He has his encounter in the late
thirties. You have yours in the

394
00:33:59.720 --> 00:34:05.440
late eighties. Yep. I'm guessing
if if my math is correct, he

395
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:08.239
would have his would have been in
the late thirties, I think, because

396
00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:15.039
you said there was about fifty years
all that's wild and so I brew in

397
00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:19.840
my mind, I was shocked.
I never I went to meet them,

398
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:22.800
and I never thought that I would
ever hear the story and at all.

399
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:28.079
Booke, it all came back to
me, so you know what I mean.

400
00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:30.280
I was like, yeah, boom, I said, oh man,

401
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:37.440
So you know so that's when like
after I told him my encounter, and

402
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:40.119
he just looked at me and he's
like, yeah, there's things out there.

403
00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:43.920
Yeah. I was like, yeah, I said, I guess.

404
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:45.719
So you know that we didn't talk
about it no more. We talk about

405
00:34:45.719 --> 00:34:51.559
all the things. I totally get
it, so a few, a few

406
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:54.159
questions for you about that, because
that was just a fascinating story. You

407
00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:59.119
know, the mental picture of like
you guys hanging out in the late eighties

408
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:02.280
at this aband An airport, listening
to the Motley Crew. There's probably like

409
00:35:02.440 --> 00:35:06.880
kickstart in my heart or something,
and then all of a sudden, you're

410
00:35:06.920 --> 00:35:10.079
just burning rubber or whatever, trying
to get away from these big fat which

411
00:35:10.280 --> 00:35:14.760
they were trying to sneak up on
you, I'm pretty sure on the one

412
00:35:14.840 --> 00:35:16.639
side of the car. And it
was almost real bad for you guys.

413
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:22.360
Yeah, if we would have stayed
there, it would have been real bad.

414
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:27.559
I believe that because I'm gonna tell
you about this thing that was on

415
00:35:27.679 --> 00:35:30.360
the hill. It was all going
right to the left, right to the

416
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:35.719
left, and he wanted us to
keep our eye on him. And I'm

417
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:43.639
telling you about forty yards away to
all right, I heard that brand snap

418
00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:45.960
and it wasn't like a big snap, you know what I mean. So

419
00:35:46.239 --> 00:35:51.960
I know, with a big branch. And when that happened, we hauled

420
00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:55.119
as we hit, you know what
I mean. It's like we were trying

421
00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:58.159
to get out of there, you
know what I'm saying. I mean you

422
00:35:58.239 --> 00:36:00.280
know, oh yeah, it's like
there's something on the hill. And there

423
00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:05.039
was definitely something on the hill.
Did you get a good luck at the

424
00:36:05.119 --> 00:36:08.280
creature? Do you remember any details
or was it it kind of too far

425
00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:14.360
away to see the details. The
one on the right that was forty yards

426
00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:17.000
away me about forty yards away,
well, we never seen that. All

427
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:21.360
we did was hear that one,
the one on the hill. That thing

428
00:36:21.480 --> 00:36:23.719
was big. It's like I'm telling
you, I'm six two. He was

429
00:36:23.800 --> 00:36:32.360
about six one six two and up
on the hill he was tall. I'm

430
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:38.199
guessing he was between seven I had
to eight be tall. That's why I'm

431
00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:44.159
guessing, gotcha. He was like
fifty to eighty yards away, and he

432
00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:50.159
was big and he was wide because
when we were first looking at him,

433
00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:58.079
we were thinking, like, this
guy was wide, not just tall,

434
00:36:58.639 --> 00:37:04.440
but his shoulders, like we could
see the silhouette, you know what I'm

435
00:37:04.440 --> 00:37:09.920
saying. But he was wide at
the top, and we know he was

436
00:37:10.039 --> 00:37:14.599
tall. I was, I'm guessing
because to me, I'm always trying to

437
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:17.480
picture that in my mind. And
I know he was about seven a half

438
00:37:17.599 --> 00:37:27.760
eight p tall, that's I know. And he was big, and he's

439
00:37:27.800 --> 00:37:32.159
like, you know, I keep
thinking about it and back in the past,

440
00:37:34.199 --> 00:37:40.079
and like even up to a year
after that happened, I was always

441
00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:45.679
thinking about it. And I'm saying
I'm myself that thing was big. That

442
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:50.840
thing was huge. If me and
my friend, if we had to defend

443
00:37:50.920 --> 00:37:54.639
ourself against this one big thing,
it will never happen. It would have

444
00:37:54.679 --> 00:38:00.199
never happened. We would have been
toasted. I know that for effect to

445
00:38:00.320 --> 00:38:06.559
send with a powdering to us,
we will probably have a better chance fighting

446
00:38:06.639 --> 00:38:10.960
a bull than fighting this thing.
That's how big this thing was. And

447
00:38:12.159 --> 00:38:16.000
this is in South Jersey. This
is not Washington State. This is not

448
00:38:16.119 --> 00:38:22.239
in northern California or Texas. This
is in New Jersey, South Jersey area,

449
00:38:23.320 --> 00:38:29.920
and you know, and so you
know, it's it's it amazes me

450
00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:32.239
because you know, I listened to
a lot of podcasts, you mean,

451
00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:37.800
like I told you earlier, and
everybody's always talking about Florida, Texas,

452
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:43.519
North Carolina, South Carolina, California, Washington, but nobody ever said another

453
00:38:43.519 --> 00:38:46.599
about Jersey, you know what I
mean. I hear in New England,

454
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:53.280
I hear Rhode Island, I hear
a story about Connecticut, but nobody haven't

455
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:58.639
said another about New Jersey, and
it's like, I don't know if I've

456
00:38:58.679 --> 00:39:01.440
seen it. I know a whole
lot of other people had to seen it,

457
00:39:01.599 --> 00:39:07.840
you know what I'm saying. So
then I started, but Jimmy googling

458
00:39:07.639 --> 00:39:15.599
my area big fool sightings and filing
New Jersey and or in South Jersey,

459
00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:22.039
and you mean they had been you
mean, but they mean like encounters in

460
00:39:22.159 --> 00:39:25.679
this area back in the sixties and
the fifties. You know what I mean.

461
00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:32.159
Google, You'll see it, you
know what I mean, Like all

462
00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:37.159
I do with jim Google bigfool sightings
in Billing in New Jersey, or during

463
00:39:37.159 --> 00:39:40.039
bigfool sightings in South Jersey. Then
you mean they had a few sightings,

464
00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:44.760
you know what I mean. There's
a farmer down here that has seen it.

465
00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:47.480
One day, I think I was
some time in the sixties. And

466
00:39:49.639 --> 00:39:55.480
at the same day it was a
teenager guying girl. They seen it down

467
00:39:55.599 --> 00:40:00.360
at the sand Wash. So you
know there they're here. You know what

468
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:07.000
I'm saying. It's just you know, and it's gonna get more crazy when

469
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:15.119
I tell you now. I graduated
in nineteen ninety and I started driving a

470
00:40:15.159 --> 00:40:20.519
truck. My father was a truck
driver. He passed away a year ago

471
00:40:21.559 --> 00:40:25.599
and he was a truck driver,
and I became a truck driver right out

472
00:40:25.639 --> 00:40:30.920
of high school and I started driving
a truck and all that stuff. So

473
00:40:31.920 --> 00:40:40.440
two years after my first siding,
I was driving for my father and I

474
00:40:40.599 --> 00:40:46.239
used to go to the same place, like down the street, maybe I'm

475
00:40:46.280 --> 00:40:52.159
a half a mile away from our
first sighting. There was a warehouse that

476
00:40:54.360 --> 00:41:02.239
they used to ship like aluminum products
like aluminum foil or ran a luminum box

477
00:41:02.360 --> 00:41:07.360
to make stuff out of aluminum,
you know. And I used to go

478
00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:13.639
to Charlotte, North Carolina at least
him three times a week. So one

479
00:41:13.719 --> 00:41:17.039
day and now Stralote got jumped in
the truck. It's eight o'clock at night

480
00:41:17.679 --> 00:41:22.239
out of be in Charlotte for six
in the morning. So I get to

481
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:25.800
the Whitehouse and it's like I'm saying, it's about a half a mile away

482
00:41:25.880 --> 00:41:30.800
from my first sighting. I get
to the Whitehouse and nobody's there. It's

483
00:41:30.800 --> 00:41:36.079
all dark. It's only one light
post. It's kind of back in the

484
00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:38.760
woods, Like I said, this
is all woods back here. And I

485
00:41:38.920 --> 00:41:44.079
found my trailer that I had to
hook up too. Hooked up to the

486
00:41:44.159 --> 00:41:50.000
trailer, I jumped out the cab. I was going to. I hooked

487
00:41:50.079 --> 00:41:57.119
up my airlines and I wanted to
go crank the landing gear up. As

488
00:41:57.159 --> 00:42:06.199
soon as I touched the landing gear, I heard these screams and howling and

489
00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:15.320
screams and screams, and I froze, and I I just felt I couldn't

490
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:21.440
move. I could not move them. And these screams was so loud.

491
00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:30.360
They just went right through you.
And I couldn't move, and I don't

492
00:42:30.400 --> 00:42:32.960
want to turn my head to the
right, and I didn't want to turn

493
00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:37.199
my head to the left. I
just kept straight, looking right to the

494
00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:38.679
trailer. You know. I read
the wall right there at the trailer walls,

495
00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:40.960
you know what I mean. I
was just looking at the trailer walls.

496
00:42:40.960 --> 00:42:47.920
I couldn't move, so following I
was getting louder and louder and louder.

497
00:42:49.639 --> 00:42:54.199
And what I did was I left
the landing gear there. I pulled

498
00:42:54.239 --> 00:43:00.360
a pin on the tractor on hook
the lines didn't even bother the hooking up

499
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:02.960
to the cab, you know,
like we had hooks where like you know,

500
00:43:04.000 --> 00:43:07.800
we used to hook up the airlines
and electrical court. I jumped in

501
00:43:07.920 --> 00:43:12.679
the truck and I took off and
I didn't go back. I parked the

502
00:43:12.760 --> 00:43:16.840
truck in front of the house and
I told my father, I'm not going

503
00:43:16.920 --> 00:43:20.719
back there. He said, why
why happened? I said, I'm not

504
00:43:20.840 --> 00:43:23.480
going back there. I don't want
to talk about it. I'll pick it

505
00:43:23.559 --> 00:43:29.599
the load up in the morning when
the sun's up. And that's what I

506
00:43:29.719 --> 00:43:37.679
did. So I went back like
eight o'clock in the morning, and you

507
00:43:37.760 --> 00:43:43.320
know, they had a rescheduled appointment. And I hooked up to the load

508
00:43:43.440 --> 00:43:46.760
and I went to Charlotte, North
Carolina. I didn't talk to nobody for

509
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:53.400
two or three days. So and
uh, I didn't. I didn't want

510
00:43:53.400 --> 00:43:57.760
to be bothered by anybody. I
just wanted to deliver this load. And

511
00:43:57.840 --> 00:44:00.119
I wanted to sit in Charlotte,
North Carolina. And I didn't want to

512
00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:02.079
move you, I mean, because
it's scared the hell out of me.

513
00:44:02.280 --> 00:44:07.960
That scared me. That scared me
ten times more than that first encounter.

514
00:44:08.679 --> 00:44:15.920
And and then I told the broker, I said, listen, I'm not

515
00:44:16.039 --> 00:44:20.719
going back in there at night no
more. If you guys can't have the

516
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:23.760
load ready about five pm, I'm
not picking it up. I'll pick it

517
00:44:23.880 --> 00:44:29.280
up the next day. So they
had made arrangements because I was the only

518
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:35.519
one corner struggle in North Carolina because
nobody wanted to go there. So because

519
00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:38.360
nobody wanted to go there, they
had to make sure that load was was

520
00:44:38.519 --> 00:44:44.719
loaded by five pm because I wasn't
going in there at night anymore. And

521
00:44:45.199 --> 00:44:50.960
I did that for about a year, and so that was about a half

522
00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:58.719
half a mile away from our first
sighting. We'll be back with more Bigfoot

523
00:44:58.800 --> 00:45:07.239
Society after these were it's from our
sponsors. I was just about that.

524
00:45:07.679 --> 00:45:12.599
I was just about to ask that
man, Yeah, that's scared of hell

525
00:45:12.639 --> 00:45:15.480
out of me. That's scared of
hell out of me. A matter of

526
00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:21.519
fact, I'm by now telling you
this. I'm getting my hairs on,

527
00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:25.480
my arms are standing up. Stop
bothering the hell out of me. And

528
00:45:25.639 --> 00:45:30.760
you know what it's was like And
it kind of sounded like the Ohio sound,

529
00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:40.039
but ten times louder or its or
like ten times I don't know how

530
00:45:40.079 --> 00:45:43.760
to explain it, but like,
you know, louder, like you know

531
00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:47.480
what I mean. When this thing
screamed, it was like this thing had

532
00:45:47.519 --> 00:45:52.400
a paralongs on it, I mean, you know, and it went right

533
00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:57.079
through I didn't know where it was. I heard it. It was loud.

534
00:45:57.639 --> 00:46:02.239
It was getting louder and louder.
I mean, that was coming and

535
00:46:04.320 --> 00:46:07.599
as like I said, I froze. I couldn't move. I actually could

536
00:46:07.719 --> 00:46:12.360
not move my body. It was
like something like I felt like something was

537
00:46:12.480 --> 00:46:15.320
holding me there and then like I
snapped out of it. In all that

538
00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:22.119
ass you know what I mean.
And like I said, I made arrangements.

539
00:46:22.199 --> 00:46:27.480
I never went back there at nighttime. The trailer wasn't loaded about five

540
00:46:27.519 --> 00:46:31.440
o'clock that love was sleeping the next
morning. I wasn't going to go back

541
00:46:31.519 --> 00:46:38.599
there at nighttime. And everybody always
kept on asking me why why and what

542
00:46:38.760 --> 00:46:43.840
did my mother tel that I heard
this scream and it's scared the hell out

543
00:46:43.880 --> 00:46:45.800
of me. And I'm like going
back in there at night. You know

544
00:46:45.800 --> 00:46:49.000
what I'm trying to say. I
mean, you know, I was a

545
00:46:49.039 --> 00:46:51.480
young guy. I mean, what
was the first thing they're gonna say,

546
00:46:51.480 --> 00:46:52.760
Oh, this guy was looking due, you know what I mean? You

547
00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:57.440
know what I'm trying to say.
I mean, you know, and I

548
00:46:57.679 --> 00:47:01.280
just, uh, I went back
to night. I didn't care, you

549
00:47:01.360 --> 00:47:05.280
know what I mean. I was
at the point where my dad wanted to

550
00:47:05.320 --> 00:47:07.599
fire me and hired somebody has to
drive the truck that was fired with me,

551
00:47:07.880 --> 00:47:13.320
how about it? Yeah, I
mean that's how I felt. I

552
00:47:13.440 --> 00:47:17.440
didn't care. I wasn't going back
during night. So and you mean,

553
00:47:19.000 --> 00:47:24.199
it's just like I mean, the
only one that I told about that story

554
00:47:24.440 --> 00:47:31.039
was was goose to my wife,
you know what I mean, So you

555
00:47:31.079 --> 00:47:36.960
know she was only all I knew
about that. Yeah, but but see

556
00:47:37.000 --> 00:47:39.719
I have met my wife, I
don't know, like like eight nine years

557
00:47:39.880 --> 00:47:43.119
later after that, you know what
I'm saying, Like, you know,

558
00:47:45.480 --> 00:47:46.679
but that's what I mean. When
I was telling you about my father on

559
00:47:46.800 --> 00:47:52.320
law, when he was telling me
about his encounter, and you mean,

560
00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:53.519
I was just so like, you
mean, that just came right back at

561
00:47:53.599 --> 00:47:55.000
me, you know what I mean. I was like, man, it's

562
00:47:55.519 --> 00:48:00.800
the same place, the same spot, the same hill saying everything. And

563
00:48:01.079 --> 00:48:07.320
you know, I don't know whether
it was the same creature. I don't

564
00:48:07.360 --> 00:48:10.519
know how long they live, you
know what I mean. I don't know

565
00:48:10.599 --> 00:48:14.679
how don they hang out in the
same area. I don't know, you

566
00:48:14.800 --> 00:48:21.199
know, but you know, basically, the same thing happened to me happened

567
00:48:21.239 --> 00:48:24.800
to him. And then like two
years later after my first account of this

568
00:48:24.960 --> 00:48:29.920
thing happened with the screaming and the
howling. And I want to tell you

569
00:48:30.039 --> 00:48:34.719
something. It sounded like a dynasaur
was coming. It was it like a

570
00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:39.039
coode or anything like that. It
sounded like a dynasaur coming. That's scared

571
00:48:39.119 --> 00:48:43.559
the hell out of me. That's
scared as I don't tell you right now

572
00:48:43.599 --> 00:48:45.079
what I'm telling you it is.
All my hairs are standing up on my

573
00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:53.880
arms. So you know, that
was no joke that there. I was

574
00:48:53.960 --> 00:48:59.440
there by myself and the only thing
I had in my pocket was a little

575
00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:02.119
going A little buck lives here.
I mean, you know what I mean,

576
00:49:02.199 --> 00:49:07.360
That's all I had, you know, And this thing sounded like a

577
00:49:07.400 --> 00:49:12.159
dinosaur comings, and it was coming, and I knew it was coming,

578
00:49:14.159 --> 00:49:23.199
you know, but I never you
know, and then uh, you know,

579
00:49:23.480 --> 00:49:28.440
just you know this area here,
and then like if you say something,

580
00:49:29.599 --> 00:49:32.360
you know, it's like people look
at you like you're crazy. That's

581
00:49:32.360 --> 00:49:37.280
why I really never said anything to
anybody. All my friends at the hunt

582
00:49:37.320 --> 00:49:40.639
shop, I never saidden, you
know. I mean, like you know,

583
00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:45.960
I was, I'll start something little
and then you mean I just let

584
00:49:45.039 --> 00:49:49.239
it go, you know what I
mean. But uh, you know,

585
00:49:51.719 --> 00:49:53.719
it's not just in I just want
to say you. I mean, it's

586
00:49:54.039 --> 00:49:59.639
it's not just in the Pacific north
West, it's here in Jersey too,

587
00:50:00.079 --> 00:50:01.960
you know. Oh absolutely, swamp
talk, can you can you repeat the

588
00:50:02.119 --> 00:50:07.519
name of the town that both of
these things happened in? All right out

589
00:50:07.920 --> 00:50:15.320
violent v I N E L A
N B New Jersey, Okay, Vineland,

590
00:50:15.360 --> 00:50:20.360
New Jersey. I feel like,
yeah, I feel like there's a

591
00:50:20.440 --> 00:50:23.559
listener out there who's listening to this
and it's like that sounds like Vineland,

592
00:50:24.280 --> 00:50:27.800
and then they're gonna be like,
oh, it is Vineland, and then

593
00:50:27.840 --> 00:50:31.800
they're gonna say, like, I've
had a similar situation happened in that area.

594
00:50:31.960 --> 00:50:35.719
I just I have a feeling that

595
00:50:35.840 --> 00:50:38.960
one. It just feels like it. So let me know. Email is

598
00:50:46.880 --> 00:50:52.400
swamp talk, these are these are
nuts. Man. Yeah, well it

599
00:50:52.559 --> 00:51:06.360
just gets better. Uh uh About
seven years ago, I don't know,

600
00:51:06.440 --> 00:51:13.719
maybe eight years ago, I was
running back and forth like the Boston,

601
00:51:13.800 --> 00:51:19.480
Massachusetts and then when I used to
get unloaded in Boston, Massachusetts, I

602
00:51:19.599 --> 00:51:22.480
used to go up in the state
of Maine, and I used to pick

603
00:51:22.599 --> 00:51:29.599
up water at the Poland Spring,
but in a warehouse. I mean,

604
00:51:30.400 --> 00:51:31.400
I don't know, you guys got
to in Owa, but I mean we

605
00:51:31.440 --> 00:51:37.239
have Poland spring water. It's like
bottled water. I mean, so anyway,

606
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:42.119
I mean I used to I used
to be my back hall. And

607
00:51:42.599 --> 00:51:49.519
it was kind of funny because like
me and my wife. My wife used

608
00:51:49.559 --> 00:51:53.760
to ride in the truck with me
ever since we met and we've been together

609
00:51:53.920 --> 00:52:00.719
like like twenty three twenty four years, and then she always rode in the

610
00:52:00.719 --> 00:52:04.760
truck with me, and you know, we used well out forty eight states.

611
00:52:04.800 --> 00:52:06.960
But like at that time, I
always going to run in Jersey to

612
00:52:07.039 --> 00:52:15.320
Boston, Boston to Maine and then
Maine back to Jersey. And once in

613
00:52:15.320 --> 00:52:17.320
a while we used to talk about
you know what I mean, the self

614
00:52:17.360 --> 00:52:22.119
a big foot and all this stuff. And I used to listen to your

615
00:52:22.199 --> 00:52:29.719
shows and stuff as I'm going up
the road, and then shows like we've

616
00:52:29.760 --> 00:52:34.840
always been going through the woods.
You go to Maine, we go Massachusetts,

617
00:52:35.039 --> 00:52:38.199
New Hampster, and we never seen
nothing. And I used to tell

618
00:52:38.360 --> 00:52:40.920
my love, I says, how
many times do you go to Maine.

619
00:52:42.440 --> 00:52:45.159
She goes, uh, we go
to Maine. I mean like two or

620
00:52:45.159 --> 00:52:49.199
three times a week. I says, have you ever seen a moose?

621
00:52:50.320 --> 00:52:54.760
No? So there was your sign
if you never seen a moose? How

622
00:52:54.840 --> 00:53:00.239
you and you know this moose in
Maine, and you know there moves in

623
00:53:00.320 --> 00:53:04.119
New Hampshire, but you've never seen
it. It's the same thing with bigfoot.

624
00:53:06.639 --> 00:53:07.880
You may know they're there, but
you may never see it. You

625
00:53:07.920 --> 00:53:12.920
know what I'm trying to say.
I mean, you know makes sense?

626
00:53:13.280 --> 00:53:20.440
Like yeah, I mean and all
the years I drove a truck in the

627
00:53:20.519 --> 00:53:24.920
state of Maine, I never seen
a moose never. I've seen white tail

628
00:53:25.000 --> 00:53:30.280
deer, I seen black bear.
I never seen a moose never. And

629
00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:34.639
we used to go all the way
up to the Potatoes part of Maine,

630
00:53:35.039 --> 00:53:39.320
I stop in northern Maine by the
Canada line, and never seen a moose

631
00:53:40.199 --> 00:53:45.079
never. And till to today,
I haven't seen a moose in person.

632
00:53:45.440 --> 00:53:46.800
You know what I mean? I
mean, you know, so how you

633
00:53:46.960 --> 00:53:54.039
know there's no big foots there?
You've never seen it. But it's like,

634
00:53:54.119 --> 00:53:55.639
how do you know? I mean, you know what I'm saying,

635
00:53:55.760 --> 00:54:00.239
because just because you don't see it
and don't there there. It's like moose,

636
00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:04.199
you know what I mean, you
know that there, but you don't

637
00:54:04.239 --> 00:54:06.119
see it, you know. So
yeah, that's why I mean, I

638
00:54:06.199 --> 00:54:13.559
try to explain to my wife,
you know. But so so what happened

639
00:54:13.679 --> 00:54:20.679
was I went up to Maine and
I picked up a lot of water dot

640
00:54:20.719 --> 00:54:27.760
of poland Maine and uh, I'm
we're headed back to Jersey. And I

641
00:54:27.920 --> 00:54:34.239
got lucky that day because I had
to deliver and violent New Jersey to to

642
00:54:34.559 --> 00:54:49.679
a grocery historical shop, right and
it's a big uh out of grocery stores,

643
00:54:49.760 --> 00:54:53.519
you know what I mean. And
so I had a six am appointment.

644
00:54:54.559 --> 00:54:59.480
Well, I'm coming down to Jersey
Turnpike. I get off ex to

645
00:54:59.559 --> 00:55:06.360
seven Boordingtown and uh I used to
get off extra seven. I go to

646
00:55:06.440 --> 00:55:08.719
wawall get my coffee, my hooghie
or you know. I mean like a

647
00:55:08.800 --> 00:55:15.119
store called wah Wah has a real
popular store around my area. And uh,

648
00:55:17.599 --> 00:55:22.719
I'm going down the road after we
eighty drinker coffee and I'll be tired,

649
00:55:22.920 --> 00:55:25.440
you know. I mean, this
is like my third round. And

650
00:55:25.880 --> 00:55:31.519
uh, I mean back in the
days moving there have electronic law books.

651
00:55:31.559 --> 00:55:35.559
So I'm running the row with three
law books, because you know what I

652
00:55:35.599 --> 00:55:38.519
mean, I'll go back and forth, back and forth, and uh,

653
00:55:38.639 --> 00:55:45.480
well, anyway, I jumped off
two ninety five in Bordingtown. It's uh

654
00:55:45.599 --> 00:55:52.400
the mean, howich ninety five about
a mile away from the truck stop and

655
00:55:52.440 --> 00:55:55.719
wadwa and all that it used to
be arrested area. That's on the right

656
00:55:55.760 --> 00:56:02.519
hand side, on the south wound
side. So I pulled in there and

657
00:56:02.639 --> 00:56:08.159
I took out of me like an
hour nap because I had time. I

658
00:56:08.239 --> 00:56:13.079
was only sixty miles away from my
hometown. So what you mean about an

659
00:56:13.119 --> 00:56:21.159
hour ride? I was there,
So I wake up an hour in an

660
00:56:21.199 --> 00:56:24.119
hour, I waked my wife up. I said, come on, we

661
00:56:24.239 --> 00:56:29.400
gotta go. I jumped in the
driver's seat. I turned my lights on,

662
00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:32.960
I turned my material lights on,
and I'm doing my law book real

663
00:56:34.039 --> 00:56:40.880
quick. And my wife was still
in the bunk and she's putting her shoes

664
00:56:40.960 --> 00:56:49.480
on. And I just happened to
look up and on the right side of

665
00:56:49.559 --> 00:56:58.239
the rest area, I saw something
running very very very very very fast.

666
00:57:00.000 --> 00:57:04.880
It was on my right, it
was very sores my left, and I

667
00:57:05.039 --> 00:57:12.840
thought it was gonna go across the
highway. And what I saw was about

668
00:57:12.880 --> 00:57:19.639
eight to nine feet tall. It
was only thirty yards away from the front

669
00:57:19.679 --> 00:57:22.519
of my truck. Well, I
popped my head out because I was doing

670
00:57:22.559 --> 00:57:28.639
my law book. I had my
book on my life on my lap.

671
00:57:29.599 --> 00:57:31.440
I'm drawing the lines on the law
book and doing my numbers and all that.

672
00:57:31.679 --> 00:57:37.000
And I looked up and I've seen
this thing running. And then,

673
00:57:37.079 --> 00:57:39.400
like I said, it was it
was very very tall, eight nine ft

674
00:57:39.400 --> 00:57:45.559
tall. But the way it was
running, it was so fast. But

675
00:57:45.840 --> 00:57:51.559
you know when you dog or you're
running that your head bops up and down.

676
00:57:53.000 --> 00:57:55.440
You know what I mean, when
you run. If you see somebody

677
00:57:55.519 --> 00:57:58.480
running, the head goes up and
down, you know what I mean,

678
00:57:58.719 --> 00:58:05.159
as they're running. This thing wasn't
doing that. This thing looked like it

679
00:58:05.320 --> 00:58:12.480
was on a skateboard going across the
parking lot doing like sixty mile an hour

680
00:58:13.480 --> 00:58:17.880
because it was smooth. He was
like it was on the ice skates,

681
00:58:19.719 --> 00:58:25.639
smooth going across the parking lot.
My headlights hit it, and like I

682
00:58:25.719 --> 00:58:30.039
said, it was like thirty I
said, about thirty thirty five yards away

683
00:58:30.119 --> 00:58:34.360
from my truck. And you mean
I was driving a Peter boat at the

684
00:58:34.400 --> 00:58:38.280
time. I was at three seventy
nine and I was kind of, you

685
00:58:38.360 --> 00:58:43.199
know, right there, and I've
seen this thing and I said it.

686
00:58:43.320 --> 00:58:46.039
My wife's, yo, you see
this. I told you they're here.

687
00:58:46.599 --> 00:58:50.599
And she's like, what are you
talking about. I said, pig foot

688
00:58:50.880 --> 00:58:53.199
just right across the truck. She
said, you're crazy, and she said

689
00:58:53.199 --> 00:58:55.719
you're tired. I said, no, I asked, you said? And

690
00:58:55.880 --> 00:59:00.400
then when it ran across the parking
lot and it that's my truck, like

691
00:59:00.599 --> 00:59:06.639
towards it, like it was going
towards the highway. It kind of jumped,

692
00:59:07.199 --> 00:59:12.880
but it turned towards me in the
air and it landed in the ditch.

693
00:59:15.639 --> 00:59:19.840
And I just stood there, and
I'm arguing with my wife. I

694
00:59:19.920 --> 00:59:22.800
said, you had to see that, and you mean and you mean I'm

695
00:59:22.920 --> 00:59:27.360
arguing whether. I said, if
you wasn't so damn slow put your shoes

696
00:59:27.400 --> 00:59:30.119
off, you would have been in
the front seat and you would have seen

697
00:59:30.199 --> 00:59:32.800
it. And she said, I
didn't see nothing. I said, well,

698
00:59:32.880 --> 00:59:40.280
guess what. I've seen it again
and so on. But do you

699
00:59:40.360 --> 00:59:46.159
know the spotlights of the police cars
have Okay, I had one on my

700
00:59:46.280 --> 00:59:52.119
truck, so I turned it on. I turned it towards the highway,

701
00:59:52.920 --> 00:59:57.239
like down to this ditch. I
put the truck at first gear and I

702
00:59:57.400 --> 01:00:01.639
let it roll real slow. Ever
seen nothing. So I don't know whether

703
01:00:02.320 --> 01:00:08.639
right across the highway on the northbound
side, or it was behind trees and

704
01:00:08.639 --> 01:00:14.079
I couldn't see it, but I
showed my spotlight and never see nothing.

705
01:00:14.559 --> 01:00:17.719
But I did see it running across
the parking lot, and I'm telling you,

706
01:00:19.159 --> 01:00:24.199
it was like it was on the
ice skates. The head was above

707
01:00:24.320 --> 01:00:30.679
in it was so like smooth.
It was like, I can't explain it,

708
01:00:30.800 --> 01:00:34.239
but it was like it was like
on a skateboard going across. It

709
01:00:34.440 --> 01:00:37.000
wasn't going up and down, you
know what I mean. Like when people

710
01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:39.880
run, the head goes up and
down and you see the shoulders going up

711
01:00:39.920 --> 01:00:45.119
and down. This thing wasn't doing. This thing was smooth. It was

712
01:00:45.239 --> 01:00:49.599
like it was like it was like
on a skateboard, or it looked like

713
01:00:49.679 --> 01:00:52.960
it was on the ice skates.
But it was coming across the parking lot

714
01:00:52.519 --> 01:00:59.000
quick and it was running fast,
and I never see nobody ever run that

715
01:00:59.119 --> 01:01:04.440
damn fast, you know what I
mean. And but the way when it

716
01:01:04.559 --> 01:01:09.760
jumped into the ditch, it kind
of turned towards me and it landed and

717
01:01:10.000 --> 01:01:14.519
kept going, and that's when you
know. I mean, I freaked out.

718
01:01:15.159 --> 01:01:17.039
I was like, like, you
know, holy ess. I was

719
01:01:17.239 --> 01:01:21.159
like, you know, I'm telling
about why did you see that? Did

720
01:01:21.239 --> 01:01:23.440
you see that? She said no, I didn't see nothing, and she's

721
01:01:23.559 --> 01:01:27.840
like, it probably was a bear. I said, there's no way in

722
01:01:28.000 --> 01:01:34.559
hell this thing was a bear.
I know what a bear. A bear

723
01:01:34.719 --> 01:01:37.400
do not move like that. I
don't care if a million people tell me

724
01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:40.760
that was a bear. I will
deny it. That was not a bear.

725
01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:46.960
We'll be back with more Bigfoot Society
after these words from our sponsors.

726
01:01:51.519 --> 01:01:54.920
I know that wor fact it wasn't
a bear. I know that, I

727
01:01:55.039 --> 01:01:59.079
know what bears look like. I'm
not stupid, you know what I mean.

728
01:01:59.639 --> 01:02:02.960
So when I left, I was
I was, I was like up,

729
01:02:04.679 --> 01:02:08.719
you know what I mean, Like, I couldn't sleep. When I

730
01:02:08.880 --> 01:02:13.320
got to Violin, unloaded my trailer, I went back to the yard,

731
01:02:13.639 --> 01:02:19.320
I parked the truck and trailer and
I went home. I usually crash,

732
01:02:19.719 --> 01:02:21.239
you know, I mean, because
I'm tired, you know what I mean,

733
01:02:21.599 --> 01:02:24.880
Because I only I just drove six
tehund miles in like twenty four hour

734
01:02:25.000 --> 01:02:30.760
period, and I mean I was
tired and I couldn't sleep. I couldn't

735
01:02:30.760 --> 01:02:34.679
eat. All I did was smoke
circles and drink coffee. I was thinking

736
01:02:34.679 --> 01:02:37.199
about this is it going through my
mind over and over and over and over,

737
01:02:38.000 --> 01:02:40.119
and I'm telling, oh, I
just saying it was a bear.

738
01:02:40.280 --> 01:02:44.000
Now it wasn't a bear. A
bear, don't run like that, you

739
01:02:44.079 --> 01:02:49.760
know what I mean? You know, but that was that was account and

740
01:02:50.440 --> 01:02:54.880
that was at that time. That
was the third encounter. That was the

741
01:02:54.960 --> 01:03:00.239
closest one that I had eyesight,
you know what I'm saying, Like know

742
01:03:00.239 --> 01:03:05.639
what I mean that that I saw
with my eyes and you know, and

743
01:03:05.920 --> 01:03:09.000
since I was like said, thirty
thirty five yards, so you know,

744
01:03:09.679 --> 01:03:20.679
that was sixty miles away from my
hometown, violent north of me. And

745
01:03:21.199 --> 01:03:24.280
if you and if you talk about
Warring State farest let mean the pine barrens.

746
01:03:25.239 --> 01:03:31.800
It's only from where I go to
Warren State Forest and there's probably violent

747
01:03:31.880 --> 01:03:38.559
though, uh you know, thirty
miles away, you know what I mean,

748
01:03:38.599 --> 01:03:40.800
if you went up to H six, it would be like thirty miles

749
01:03:40.840 --> 01:03:45.039
away to Bordentown. Let me let
me tell, let me to that rest

750
01:03:45.119 --> 01:03:51.480
area. So you know, about
twenty five thirty miles away. So now

751
01:03:51.639 --> 01:03:57.000
I'm thinking, Okay, Violin to
Barrenttown and then all the stories I heard

752
01:03:57.039 --> 01:04:00.920
of Warren State Forest. That's like
a little triangle, like a sixty mile

753
01:04:00.599 --> 01:04:04.360
triangle. Like you know, I'm
trying to say, you know what I

754
01:04:04.400 --> 01:04:08.639
mean, Yeah, yeah, I
got you. Yeah, so you know

755
01:04:09.400 --> 01:04:13.719
I'm thinking this area here, and
I mean, and it's not like you

756
01:04:13.800 --> 01:04:16.639
know, I was tired, Yes, I was tired. I admit I

757
01:04:16.719 --> 01:04:18.719
was tired. Like I said,
I mean, I used to go hard

758
01:04:18.760 --> 01:04:21.199
as a truck driver, you know
what I mean. I was the guy

759
01:04:21.280 --> 01:04:26.280
who overnight at Florida or you know
what I mean. You know, but

760
01:04:29.199 --> 01:04:31.320
when I took an hour and nap, I was good. I was good

761
01:04:31.360 --> 01:04:34.400
to get home, you know.
But I saw this they running across.

762
01:04:35.480 --> 01:04:41.639
It just happened. I just lifted
up my head and looked, and my

763
01:04:41.760 --> 01:04:45.159
headlights and all my market lights were
all on the truck, and I saw

764
01:04:45.239 --> 01:04:54.320
this thing running across and I just
blew my mind. And then on my

765
01:04:54.440 --> 01:04:58.199
way home, like like I said, I'm about sixty miles away from my

766
01:04:58.320 --> 01:05:01.559
hometown, I'm margin with my my
wife. I was like, you gotta

767
01:05:02.199 --> 01:05:04.480
let me be a little quicker,
you know what I mean. And you

768
01:05:04.559 --> 01:05:09.400
know what I mean, I'm telling
her what I've seen, and she's saying,

769
01:05:09.599 --> 01:05:12.440
it's a bear. Not to see
there a bear? You know,

770
01:05:12.519 --> 01:05:15.599
I know what a bear looks like, you know, so you know it's

771
01:05:15.639 --> 01:05:19.039
just like everything's always a bear,
and this is worth the bed, you

772
01:05:19.119 --> 01:05:23.400
know what I mean. And I'm
saying to myself, I give me,

773
01:05:23.920 --> 01:05:27.639
and give me. I'm arguing with
my wife and you know. So that's

774
01:05:27.679 --> 01:05:31.239
how that went. Stag When you
when you had a visual, did you

775
01:05:31.400 --> 01:05:38.000
notice anything weird about the eyes at
all, anything that stood out? That's

776
01:05:38.039 --> 01:05:41.800
the one thing. I don't see. No eye. Okay, I saw

777
01:05:41.920 --> 01:05:50.039
the thing. I saw the body, and the eyes were black because when

778
01:05:50.159 --> 01:05:57.119
my headlights hit it when it jumped
into the ditch, it turned towards me

779
01:05:58.000 --> 01:06:03.559
as I was jumping into the ditch, so his right leg would have landed

780
01:06:03.760 --> 01:06:13.519
first into the ditch when my head
lights hid it and he turned or I

781
01:06:13.599 --> 01:06:16.360
saw the black eyes. I didn't
see yellow. I didn't see green,

782
01:06:16.559 --> 01:06:21.559
I didn't see red. It was
just black eyes. This thing was tall,

783
01:06:23.760 --> 01:06:29.760
so I know it wasn't some idiot
in a monkey suit, because I

784
01:06:29.960 --> 01:06:32.840
never seen somebody eight nine feet tall. You know what I'm trying to say.

785
01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:38.239
I mean, this thing was tall, and it wasn't like a bodybuilder.

786
01:06:38.320 --> 01:06:43.679
That's another thing too. It was
like it was like real skinny.

787
01:06:45.519 --> 01:06:48.280
Everybody always talked about the real skinny
ones that kind of look like a basketball

788
01:06:48.320 --> 01:06:55.639
player. But this was more skinnier
than a basketball player. But it was

789
01:06:55.760 --> 01:07:02.480
tall, so you know. But
I mean, I didn't see no eyeshinker

790
01:07:02.599 --> 01:07:05.960
when my head lights hit it.
I just see no eyeshiner or nothing.

791
01:07:06.679 --> 01:07:13.199
All I saw was brought through the
black eyes. The face was covered in

792
01:07:13.360 --> 01:07:18.519
hair, black from head to toe. This thing was covered in hair,

793
01:07:19.360 --> 01:07:23.599
and it was tall, and it
was lanky. That's the word I want

794
01:07:23.599 --> 01:07:26.920
to use, lanky, you know. I mean, it wasn't as big

795
01:07:26.960 --> 01:07:31.800
as a basketball player, but it
was tall as a basketball player, gotcha.

796
01:07:32.159 --> 01:07:38.039
You know what I was thinking of
myself? Man, this thing must

797
01:07:38.079 --> 01:07:41.599
have missed a couple of meals,
because this thing wasn't like you know,

798
01:07:42.039 --> 01:07:47.480
everybody talks about the three four football
with shoulders and you know what I mean,

799
01:07:48.480 --> 01:07:53.960
big barrel chests and all that sudden. This wasn't like that. Like,

800
01:07:54.079 --> 01:07:57.679
give me, this wasn't like that. This one I seen was tall

801
01:07:58.320 --> 01:08:02.840
and lanky, but he was fast. This thing was fast if he was

802
01:08:02.960 --> 01:08:13.079
chasing you, you wouldn't have a
chance. I'm thinking if the way this

803
01:08:13.280 --> 01:08:18.279
thing moved, he was so fast
that if you were out in the middle

804
01:08:18.319 --> 01:08:23.479
of the woods and you had your
rifle in your hand, I think he

805
01:08:23.520 --> 01:08:27.479
would have got to you before you
even raised your rifle. That's how fast

806
01:08:27.560 --> 01:08:31.199
this thing was. I just blew
my mind. I'd never seen nothing that

807
01:08:31.359 --> 01:08:36.039
fast. I think, like cheetahs
and tigers and stuff on TV. This

808
01:08:36.319 --> 01:08:41.600
thing was moving fast, you know, And give me that just brew my

809
01:08:41.720 --> 01:08:45.640
mind, you know, I mean
I was, I wasn't scared. I

810
01:08:45.840 --> 01:08:51.119
was more excited than scared of what
I saw. Absolutely, but I couldn't

811
01:08:51.119 --> 01:08:58.319
believe because I couldn't believe how fast
this thing was moving, you know what

812
01:08:58.319 --> 01:09:00.640
I mean. It's just you know, I just you know, I mean,

813
01:09:00.159 --> 01:09:03.039
it just blew my mind. It
just blew my mind. What kind

814
01:09:03.079 --> 01:09:06.960
of have you ever thought to yourself? You know, what kind of creature

815
01:09:08.760 --> 01:09:13.079
are are we dealing with? Here? Like? How is it you explained

816
01:09:13.119 --> 01:09:16.159
it? Do you explain it more
as like a big ape or maybe a

817
01:09:17.479 --> 01:09:30.600
forgotten relative or I hear a lot
people say ape. I hear a lot

818
01:09:30.640 --> 01:09:36.479
of people say human. I hear
a lot of people say these things come

819
01:09:36.560 --> 01:09:45.279
from space, and I don't believe
that one bit. While I've seen that

820
01:09:45.560 --> 01:09:51.920
day at thirty five yards from my
truck with my lights hitting it, this

821
01:09:53.159 --> 01:10:00.239
thing was human, more human.
I'll put it to you this way.

822
01:10:02.119 --> 01:10:09.199
If they ever get one of these
things and put it on a slab,

823
01:10:10.840 --> 01:10:16.159
they're going to come up with this
is the third type of tribe in America.

824
01:10:18.199 --> 01:10:21.960
This thing was human. The face
when this thing turned at me,

825
01:10:23.960 --> 01:10:28.680
and I saw the face because I'm
telling you my on my head lights that's

826
01:10:28.760 --> 01:10:34.720
hitting this thing, this is human
with hair all over it. I believe

827
01:10:34.840 --> 01:10:41.439
this is that these creatures are human. I know people always say ape or

828
01:10:41.840 --> 01:10:46.640
half ape, half human these things. In my eyes my opinion what I

829
01:10:46.880 --> 01:10:54.319
see this thing's human or more human
with something else. I don't know,

830
01:10:55.119 --> 01:11:00.479
but I'll put it to you this
way. And I see one and I'm

831
01:11:00.520 --> 01:11:05.079
in my tree stand, I couldn't
shoot it. There's no way possible I

832
01:11:05.199 --> 01:11:11.079
could shoot it. The only way
that I would shoot something like this is

833
01:11:11.159 --> 01:11:15.399
if it was attacking me, my
pets, or my wife and then he's

834
01:11:15.439 --> 01:11:19.880
going to meet Jesus. But if
I'm in a tree stand and it's walking

835
01:11:19.960 --> 01:11:26.119
by, I can't shoot it because
in my mind, that's a human,

836
01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:34.520
some kind of human, and I've
seen it up close and personal in my

837
01:11:34.680 --> 01:11:40.439
truck. Now, the last encounter
that I'm gonna tell you, I was

838
01:11:40.520 --> 01:11:45.239
on my motorcycle and this is two
years ago. I had a big Yamaha,

839
01:11:45.479 --> 01:11:50.720
but a big bikes for the pharynx, and I'd like to write at

840
01:11:50.840 --> 01:11:58.520
nighttime. This is about one o'clock
in the morning. They have built a

841
01:11:58.600 --> 01:12:02.720
brand new truck stuff. And this
is on Garden Road. If you look

842
01:12:02.760 --> 01:12:09.119
it up on Google, you'll see
Garden Road and across this route fifty five.

843
01:12:09.840 --> 01:12:16.359
If you if you're looking on Google, you'll see that old abandoned airport

844
01:12:16.880 --> 01:12:23.000
and all the warehouses back in the
industrial park. And you'll see the warehouse

845
01:12:23.039 --> 01:12:27.479
where like I had the howling screen
that was coming at me. That's all

846
01:12:27.640 --> 01:12:31.439
in the same area, just maybe
half a mile maybe three quarters of a

847
01:12:31.520 --> 01:12:35.199
mile away from each other. Well, I was on my bike and I

848
01:12:35.319 --> 01:12:39.720
like going through the woods were not
the wood but you know, I was

849
01:12:39.800 --> 01:12:45.800
on blacktop and I'm riding. I'm
passing the trucks up on my right handside.

850
01:12:45.880 --> 01:12:50.760
As like I said, there's trucks
are not even rolled and I'm on

851
01:12:50.880 --> 01:13:00.600
my bike and there was still building
most of the parking lot, because half

852
01:13:00.640 --> 01:13:04.800
of the parking lot was done like
for truck parking, and they were working

853
01:13:04.880 --> 01:13:12.399
on the other side. So I'm
riding and I never told this one to

854
01:13:12.520 --> 01:13:20.279
my wife, but I'm riding my
bike and I'm doing about thirty five forty

855
01:13:20.319 --> 01:13:25.239
mile an hour. Because it's doctor
Rose, I'm looking for deer jumping out

856
01:13:25.239 --> 01:13:28.520
in front of me. So I
mean, I wasn't going too fast.

857
01:13:29.640 --> 01:13:35.359
I'm riding. I got the high
beams on my bike, and what I

858
01:13:35.600 --> 01:13:44.840
seen, what I thought it was. I thought that when they were clearing

859
01:13:44.960 --> 01:13:51.640
the land, they got these they
got these tree trunks. And what I

860
01:13:51.800 --> 01:13:58.279
was thinking, I must have fell
off of a dump truck and landed on

861
01:13:58.399 --> 01:14:02.359
the side of the road. Half
of it was on the road and half

862
01:14:02.399 --> 01:14:09.199
of it was on the shoulder.
So I slowed down. I get about

863
01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:16.800
twenty yards from this thing and it
wasn't a tree truck. I stopped.

864
01:14:17.159 --> 01:14:23.600
I stopped the bike and like,
what the helth is this? Right?

865
01:14:24.239 --> 01:14:31.159
This thing stood up, had a
deer under his arms. It kind of

866
01:14:31.520 --> 01:14:41.880
turned I'm thinking, like from the
waist up it kind of turned at me.

867
01:14:42.960 --> 01:14:48.880
Looked at me and ran across the
street into the woods. But when

868
01:14:48.960 --> 01:14:56.439
this thing stood up, my legs
turned the jello. And I'm riding a

869
01:14:56.520 --> 01:15:03.479
motorcycles like nine hundred pounds, and
I'm thinking to myself, what the f

870
01:15:06.560 --> 01:15:12.039
and I froze. My legs were
jello. My arms felt like jello,

871
01:15:12.600 --> 01:15:17.960
and I swore I was going to
drop my bike right there. But this

872
01:15:18.159 --> 01:15:25.840
thing, as like I said,
had turned, looked at me, had

873
01:15:25.920 --> 01:15:33.479
a doll under its right arm,
looked at me. He did a little

874
01:15:33.560 --> 01:15:40.000
growl, and he ran into the
woods. And I didn't see it no

875
01:15:40.119 --> 01:15:44.680
more. And I stood there.
I couldn't turn. I was so scared.

876
01:15:45.800 --> 01:15:49.319
I couldn't turn my bike around to
making you turn. I couldn't go

877
01:15:49.560 --> 01:15:53.640
forward because I didn't know it was
there. You know what I'm trying to

878
01:15:53.680 --> 01:15:58.159
say. I just stood there for
about ten minutes, and I didn't know

879
01:15:58.239 --> 01:16:00.720
what to do. And I said
it myself. I'm here, I'm not

880
01:16:00.960 --> 01:16:05.960
moving, my biker's running, my
lefs are on, and this thing comes

881
01:16:06.000 --> 01:16:10.520
out of the woods. I'm not
gonna be able to control my bike.

882
01:16:11.119 --> 01:16:15.479
I'm gonna die right here. This
is it, This is done. I

883
01:16:15.680 --> 01:16:18.640
was twenty yards away for this thing
when I came to a complete stop,

884
01:16:19.600 --> 01:16:24.520
and when it turned, I didn't
see no monkey face. I hadn't seen

885
01:16:24.560 --> 01:16:30.479
a gorilla face. I saw a
human face, kind of like an Indian

886
01:16:30.560 --> 01:16:33.039
face. That's what I see.
And I see these twenty yards away.

887
01:16:33.720 --> 01:16:38.640
We'll be back with more big Foot
society after these words from our sponsors.

888
01:16:43.800 --> 01:16:48.520
And I wear glasses when I ride
my motorcycle. And I got these these

889
01:16:48.680 --> 01:16:57.680
type of glasses. They're like goggles, but they have do mean my my

890
01:16:57.840 --> 01:17:04.720
prescription from my eyesight on these goggles. And I saw this thing up and

891
01:17:04.880 --> 01:17:11.760
personal. That was the closest encounter
and my last encounter. That was my

892
01:17:11.880 --> 01:17:15.680
last encounter. That's why I say
these things are human. But when this

893
01:17:15.840 --> 01:17:20.119
thing turned around, it showed teeth. I didn't see no fangs. I

894
01:17:20.199 --> 01:17:25.319
didn't see no monkey face. I
didn't see no gorilla face. I saw

895
01:17:25.960 --> 01:17:30.840
eyes, nose in the mouth like
a human being. But much much,

896
01:17:30.760 --> 01:17:38.800
but dream bigger. And I came
back at home. Well, no,

897
01:17:40.439 --> 01:17:45.800
after I got myself together, I
kind of walked my bike into a U

898
01:17:45.960 --> 01:17:51.239
turn because I'm telling my legs are
still jello. And I went to that

899
01:17:51.319 --> 01:17:56.640
convenience story Walwatan when I was telling
you earlier. I got a coffee.

900
01:17:57.319 --> 01:18:05.279
I sat on the on the GI
me like to GI mean, I got

901
01:18:05.319 --> 01:18:10.159
to parking lot, you know what
I mean. And I'm drinking my coffee.

902
01:18:11.079 --> 01:18:15.119
I was shaking that my cup was
shaking and I had to hold my

903
01:18:15.239 --> 01:18:19.720
coffee with two hands in order for
me to drink it. My cigarette,

904
01:18:20.319 --> 01:18:25.199
I lit up a cigarette and I
could hardly light my cigarette up. I

905
01:18:25.439 --> 01:18:30.920
was had to do that with two
hands too. So and I mean,

906
01:18:31.119 --> 01:18:35.039
I'm sitting there, I'm sitting up
by my bike, and I'm talking to

907
01:18:35.119 --> 01:18:39.800
God. Why are you doing this
to me? Why are you doing this

908
01:18:39.920 --> 01:18:45.479
to This happens since I was a
teenager until now. Why are you doing

909
01:18:45.520 --> 01:18:49.319
this to me? And give me? That's why I kept telling myself.

910
01:18:49.720 --> 01:18:55.119
I'm I'm actually talking to God.
Why are you doing this to me?

911
01:18:56.239 --> 01:18:59.880
This is your fault. Why are
you doing this? Why are you tormenting

912
01:18:59.880 --> 01:19:02.479
me? You know what I mean? Yeah, you know, because you're

913
01:19:02.520 --> 01:19:05.680
going through it. A billion things
are going through your mind. You go

914
01:19:05.840 --> 01:19:10.760
twenty yards away from one of these
things, it's going to change your life.

915
01:19:12.800 --> 01:19:15.600
If you don't believe in Jesus,
You're gonna believe in Jesus, that

916
01:19:15.720 --> 01:19:18.199
day. You know what I'm saying. I mean, you know, it's

917
01:19:18.239 --> 01:19:24.000
just that was my last encounter.
And it's like, you mean, two

918
01:19:24.079 --> 01:19:27.199
years later, when I came home, it was a couple of hours later,

919
01:19:27.279 --> 01:19:29.560
my wife's like, where you been? I said, I want to

920
01:19:29.560 --> 01:19:31.560
talk about it, And you mean, I've never told my wife I parked

921
01:19:31.600 --> 01:19:38.760
my bike in the driveway. The
next morning, I told my wife put

922
01:19:38.840 --> 01:19:42.479
it up in the internet. I
might run on my back anymore. I

923
01:19:42.600 --> 01:19:46.920
sold my motorcycle and I was two
years ago. I sold my motorcycle.

924
01:19:47.680 --> 01:19:53.039
I sold it and I've never been
on a motorcycle ever again. Because when

925
01:19:53.039 --> 01:19:57.439
I was away from this thing at
twenty yards, I had no protection.

926
01:19:58.520 --> 01:20:00.520
Nothing can protect. I have no
roof, I didn't have no door,

927
01:20:00.920 --> 01:20:04.159
I didn't have anything, just me
and the bike. That scared the hell

928
01:20:04.199 --> 01:20:08.520
out of me. It just scared
me so bad that I sold my bike.

929
01:20:08.840 --> 01:20:12.079
A week later. My bike was
gone, and I never rode a

930
01:20:12.159 --> 01:20:19.079
motorcycle ever again. Never that just
that messed me up. I was riding

931
01:20:19.079 --> 01:20:23.880
a motorcycle and I love riding a
motorcycle. You know what I mean,

932
01:20:24.039 --> 01:20:28.039
It's just I couldn't do it no
more. That just I mean that's you

933
01:20:28.159 --> 01:20:30.079
know how everybody says, oh,
you shouldn't ride a motorcycle because you get

934
01:20:30.119 --> 01:20:34.039
in the car accident, you got
nothing to protect you. Well, I

935
01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:38.840
never thought about that, But when
I saw this thing, I'm saying to

936
01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:42.640
myself, this thing could have snagged
me off this bike, and I had

937
01:20:42.720 --> 01:20:48.279
nothing nothing to protect me nothing,
no doors, no roof, no windshield,

938
01:20:48.520 --> 01:20:54.000
no nothing. I sold my bike
and I never rode a bike ever

939
01:20:54.079 --> 01:21:00.239
again. And it's been two years
since I wrote a motorcycle. I's how

940
01:21:00.359 --> 01:21:08.119
bad this thing messed me up.
So that is wild that you actually sold

941
01:21:08.159 --> 01:21:13.520
your motorcycle. It affected you so
much, motorcycle. I sold my motorcycle,

942
01:21:14.000 --> 01:21:16.239
and I don't want a motorcycle over
again. I don't want to ride

943
01:21:16.239 --> 01:21:21.119
a motorcycle. I don't. This
thing just messed me up. It's like

944
01:21:21.199 --> 01:21:25.079
I was telling you. Everybody always
talking about, oh, you shouldn't ride

945
01:21:25.079 --> 01:21:28.359
a motorcycle because the car accident,
you got no protection, you fall,

946
01:21:28.479 --> 01:21:32.319
you're d I wasn't even think about
that anymore. I'm thinking about So I

947
01:21:32.319 --> 01:21:38.119
don't want to ride a motorcycle over
again because I got no protection off of

948
01:21:38.159 --> 01:21:44.399
these things. This think you're ride
up against you and you're going into back

949
01:21:44.479 --> 01:21:47.800
country roads. This thing will snag
you off. This is what I This

950
01:21:47.920 --> 01:21:51.119
is what I had in my mind. This thing has snagged you off your

951
01:21:51.199 --> 01:22:00.920
bike and you're done because there's no
protection. This is how my my mentality

952
01:22:01.239 --> 01:22:08.840
was at that time. So I
wrote a motorcycle. Where Ever, again,

953
01:22:09.479 --> 01:22:12.039
never, my wife always asked me, when we want a good bike.

954
01:22:12.199 --> 01:22:15.239
Never, I don't want nothing to
do with motorcycles. I want nothing

955
01:22:15.239 --> 01:22:19.239
to do with anything like me.
Get me as far as a motorcycle,

956
01:22:19.319 --> 01:22:24.399
because I said, there's no protection
for these things. You stop about a

957
01:22:24.439 --> 01:22:26.520
stop sign and you're in the middle
of the road. You know what I

958
01:22:26.560 --> 01:22:30.880
mean. This is what where my
mentality was. You know what I mean?

959
01:22:30.159 --> 01:22:33.760
You know how you know how sometimes
you hear hunter goes. I don't

960
01:22:33.840 --> 01:22:38.279
hunt no more. I sold my
guns. Well, this is how it

961
01:22:38.479 --> 01:22:43.239
was from me with a motorcycle.
I sold my bike. I sold everything

962
01:22:43.640 --> 01:22:46.239
and I want no parts of it. And I don't know why, because

963
01:22:46.279 --> 01:22:48.920
you mean I was on blacktop.
I wasn't you know what I mean,

964
01:22:49.199 --> 01:22:53.359
I was on both sides of me. But you mean I was on black

965
01:22:53.399 --> 01:22:57.960
top doing give me back roads,
you know what I mean? So,

966
01:22:58.920 --> 01:23:00.079
but I mean this, that's me
up, you know what I mean.

967
01:23:00.199 --> 01:23:04.680
I just I didn't want no parts
of it. I throw my bike and

968
01:23:04.760 --> 01:23:11.079
I never wanted to buy another one
ever. Yet, you know, I

969
01:23:11.159 --> 01:23:15.439
feel like there's got to be some
big foot researchers that check out Vineland,

970
01:23:15.520 --> 01:23:18.159
New Jersey. I mean, you
got I want to play stuff. Man,

971
01:23:19.159 --> 01:23:26.399
I'm gonna tell you, like I
tried calling it like years ago.

972
01:23:27.359 --> 01:23:32.760
I tried calling it beat RFL in
New Jersey, sure, and there was

973
01:23:32.840 --> 01:23:36.159
like nobody on the other line.
I mean, I don't even know if

974
01:23:36.199 --> 01:23:43.720
they exist, you know what I
mean. But I know, and I

975
01:23:43.880 --> 01:23:50.640
know the other people, old timers, old farmers, hunters. I know

976
01:23:50.920 --> 01:23:58.239
that they know that they're there because
I'm telling you, I know that I'm

977
01:23:58.279 --> 01:24:03.560
not the only one that ever seen
these things. And you mean, these

978
01:24:03.600 --> 01:24:05.800
guys telling me, oh, I'll
be careful when you go out in the

979
01:24:05.840 --> 01:24:10.399
woods and you go camping this,
you know, blah blah blah. You

980
01:24:10.479 --> 01:24:13.720
know what I mean, make sure
you got protection and you know, just

981
01:24:13.880 --> 01:24:16.479
keep an eye or just your surroundings
and stuff like that. You know,

982
01:24:19.840 --> 01:24:23.439
they have to know something they just
ain't telling you, you know what I

983
01:24:23.560 --> 01:24:27.279
mean. And sometimes that kind of
aggravates me, because if you know there's

984
01:24:27.319 --> 01:24:30.439
something out there, you should tell
somebody. That's you know what I mean.

985
01:24:30.560 --> 01:24:36.039
So that way, like like they're
prepared and they won't get hurt or

986
01:24:36.079 --> 01:24:39.840
give mean they're go missing, you
know what I mean. I mean,

987
01:24:39.960 --> 01:24:45.399
you know, it's just I don't
know. Knowledge is everything, yea,

988
01:24:45.800 --> 01:24:51.359
And every night it's I was telling
you, I listened to your your podcast.

989
01:24:51.640 --> 01:25:00.600
I listen to sess watch chronicles,
I listen to but give me,

990
01:25:00.720 --> 01:25:05.159
doctor Meldroom. I listened to give
me a whole lot of people. And

991
01:25:06.520 --> 01:25:11.680
I mean, you know, and
you mean I'm learning. And when I

992
01:25:11.800 --> 01:25:15.800
hear stories, I stop and think
about it, and I think about my

993
01:25:15.000 --> 01:25:20.439
encounters, and then I think about
their encounters. And I'm always thinking,

994
01:25:20.479 --> 01:25:25.119
always thinking, always thinking. These
things are all over, you know what

995
01:25:25.159 --> 01:25:29.039
I mean, They even say they're
they're down South America. You know absolutely

996
01:25:29.520 --> 01:25:38.720
absolutely what you know? And then
I think about all the stories I hear

997
01:25:38.720 --> 01:25:44.640
about the government. Now, well, I wasn't finished with the last encounter

998
01:25:45.880 --> 01:25:48.880
the lady. And you mean,
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna mention the

999
01:25:48.920 --> 01:25:56.520
company. But I known her for
many, many years, many years,

1000
01:25:56.880 --> 01:26:08.560
and I felt comfortable talking to her. And a couple of days after this

1001
01:26:08.840 --> 01:26:15.399
thing was with the motorcycle of me
and her whilst hot smoking, and I

1002
01:26:15.479 --> 01:26:19.399
said, Bob, I gotta talk
to you anyway, I gotta talk to

1003
01:26:19.520 --> 01:26:24.960
you, and then she said,
yeah, go ahead. So I told

1004
01:26:25.000 --> 01:26:29.119
her what had happened to me.
And the reason why I told her was

1005
01:26:30.760 --> 01:26:36.439
was because her son's a game warden
in New Jersey in our area down here,

1006
01:26:38.640 --> 01:26:45.399
and I said, you know,
can you just this is what happened

1007
01:26:45.439 --> 01:26:49.600
to me. I wasn't drinking,
I don't do drugs, but this is

1008
01:26:49.680 --> 01:26:57.800
what happened to me. Can you
relay this story to your son since he

1009
01:26:57.960 --> 01:27:09.359
was a game warden or or is
the gate warden? And asked him if

1010
01:27:09.439 --> 01:27:12.880
he wants to look into it,
or if he wants to call me and

1011
01:27:13.000 --> 01:27:21.479
talk to me. And a couple
of states went by and I had asked

1012
01:27:21.520 --> 01:27:25.039
her again. I says, you
know, did you talk to your son?

1013
01:27:25.840 --> 01:27:30.920
And he said yeah, he says
you're crazy, you were seeing things.

1014
01:27:30.800 --> 01:27:34.720
He said he never seen nothing like
that, blah blah blah. And

1015
01:27:34.800 --> 01:27:40.640
I left to the alone. I
never said nothing no more. I left

1016
01:27:40.680 --> 01:27:46.000
to the leone and that's when I
I stopped talking about it. I was

1017
01:27:46.079 --> 01:27:49.359
gonna tell my wife about it,
but I didn't want to after that,

1018
01:27:50.159 --> 01:27:54.279
after what she told me, while
her son said, you know, I

1019
01:27:54.319 --> 01:27:58.960
don't want to talk about it,
you know. And well, that was

1020
01:27:59.199 --> 01:28:01.680
up and close. It's about twenty
yards away, and I'm thinking, this

1021
01:28:01.840 --> 01:28:04.079
is a tree truck, you know, you know how when they dig it

1022
01:28:04.159 --> 01:28:08.119
out of the ground and and then
you need to put it on the back

1023
01:28:08.159 --> 01:28:12.079
of a a dump truck or something. I'm thinking, like, this thing

1024
01:28:12.199 --> 01:28:15.680
fell up a truck and the land
on the road. So you mean I

1025
01:28:15.840 --> 01:28:19.960
stopped. I was gonna go around
it. But before I was gonna go

1026
01:28:20.079 --> 01:28:25.039
around it, the things stood up. And this was a big boy.

1027
01:28:26.039 --> 01:28:30.920
This was a big boy. And
I just don't you know what I mean.

1028
01:28:30.399 --> 01:28:38.319
And I'm sitting in my truck right
now. I'm about ten minutes away

1029
01:28:38.520 --> 01:28:44.399
from all this that I'm telling you, you know what I mean, except

1030
01:28:44.560 --> 01:28:47.399
the one on two ninety five or
sixty miles away, but everything else that

1031
01:28:47.479 --> 01:28:51.159
I'm telling you, I'm only ten
minutes away from it. If I jump

1032
01:28:51.880 --> 01:28:56.439
and I start my truck up right
now, I could be in those areas

1033
01:28:56.479 --> 01:29:04.520
in ten minutes. So you know, I don't know that I've seen it.

1034
01:29:05.800 --> 01:29:10.039
If I've seen it, I'm pretty
sure everybody else seen it. I

1035
01:29:10.079 --> 01:29:12.680
mean, my follow up told me
he's seen it, you know what I

1036
01:29:12.760 --> 01:29:16.600
mean, when when he was fourteen
years old. So yeah, I mean,

1037
01:29:17.159 --> 01:29:21.319
like you said, that was like
the thirties, thirty five, nineteen

1038
01:29:21.399 --> 01:29:26.720
thirty five, nineteen thirty somewhere around
there, because he was like sixty seven

1039
01:29:26.760 --> 01:29:35.680
when he was telling me. So, I don't know, I just and

1040
01:29:35.920 --> 01:29:38.880
I mean, you used to upset
me too, I give me. I

1041
01:29:38.880 --> 01:29:42.840
don't know why it did, but
but it used to, you know what

1042
01:29:42.840 --> 01:29:45.439
I mean, because every time I
hear I hear like a podcast, and

1043
01:29:45.479 --> 01:29:49.279
I always talk about other states.
Nobody ever talked about Jersey. And I'm

1044
01:29:49.279 --> 01:29:53.920
saying to myself, isn't there anybody
in New Jersey? I ever seen one

1045
01:29:53.960 --> 01:29:56.840
of these things? And it used
to piss me off, you know what

1046
01:29:56.840 --> 01:29:59.880
I mean, because I know what
I see. I know what I'm going

1047
01:30:00.119 --> 01:30:03.840
through. You know, I think
I smoke more cigarettes now but I did

1048
01:30:03.920 --> 01:30:06.840
before because of this ship that happened, you know what I mean. It's

1049
01:30:06.880 --> 01:30:14.319
like, you know, you know
me, and and I think I think

1050
01:30:14.319 --> 01:30:16.279
about it too much because I dream
about it sometimes. I get these dreams

1051
01:30:16.920 --> 01:30:23.760
I wake up three o'clock in the
morning. Yeah, and I'm sweat And

1052
01:30:23.840 --> 01:30:29.960
if my wife's to tell you,
my pillows would be silking wet. And

1053
01:30:30.239 --> 01:30:32.199
you know, she used to have
to change the best cheese and the pillows

1054
01:30:32.319 --> 01:30:35.840
and all that stuff because my side
of the bet would be silking wet,

1055
01:30:38.159 --> 01:30:43.399
especially when I have these dreams,
I mean of these things. So I

1056
01:30:43.479 --> 01:30:48.600
don't know if I have ps what
they call it, PSTD or or whatever

1057
01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:51.600
you mean, I don't know.
I don't know, like if I had

1058
01:30:51.720 --> 01:30:56.560
that, because I never talked to
anybody about it, not even a strict

1059
01:30:56.680 --> 01:31:00.760
or my doctor. But you know, I don't know. I get these

1060
01:31:00.800 --> 01:31:04.199
bad dreams about stuff like that.
You know a lot of people do get

1061
01:31:04.600 --> 01:31:11.239
PTSD from encounters that that is definitely
a real thing. Swamp dog for sure.

1062
01:31:12.039 --> 01:31:15.119
Yeah. So you know, well, you mean I still go into

1063
01:31:15.159 --> 01:31:18.800
woods, I still bowl hunt,
and you know what, this is another

1064
01:31:18.840 --> 01:31:24.640
thing too. You know, I'm
I'm not the guy that goes through a

1065
01:31:25.159 --> 01:31:29.600
bud A dealership and you have to
buy a new geeb or you know,

1066
01:31:29.680 --> 01:31:32.600
buy a new truck. I'm the
guy that buys the twenty three year old

1067
01:31:32.680 --> 01:31:38.239
truck and I like to build my
truck, and I like to build it

1068
01:31:39.399 --> 01:31:42.279
so it would last in the middle
of the woods and all that stuff.

1069
01:31:43.920 --> 01:31:46.680
I make my own bumpers. I
don't order bumpers. The only thing I

1070
01:31:47.000 --> 01:31:51.279
order on my truck is my suspension
with for tires and wheels. When I

1071
01:31:51.520 --> 01:31:59.800
make a bumper, and when I
build a bumper, I build this bumper.

1072
01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:02.600
And when I'm thinking when I'm building
this bumper, I want to build

1073
01:32:02.640 --> 01:32:09.439
this bumper that's strong enough that if
I remember going through a trail and I

1074
01:32:09.720 --> 01:32:13.920
run into one of these things,
I want that bumper and my friend into

1075
01:32:13.960 --> 01:32:18.600
my truck to last. I want
no damage. Is so like a lot

1076
01:32:18.640 --> 01:32:21.119
of times my friends be like,
yo, man, you building a bumper.

1077
01:32:21.239 --> 01:32:24.039
Kind of over killed, don't you
think? I said, well,

1078
01:32:24.439 --> 01:32:27.159
there's reasons to see you know what
I mean? And you know I mean,

1079
01:32:27.600 --> 01:32:30.800
but like, but everything I do, when it's building the bumper,

1080
01:32:31.720 --> 01:32:39.600
frug her back, it's for this
creature. It's weird. If I'm building

1081
01:32:39.720 --> 01:32:43.760
something on my truck, I'm building
it. I tried to do it like

1082
01:32:43.800 --> 01:32:46.880
a big foot proof, you know
what I mean. It makes sense,

1083
01:32:48.119 --> 01:32:51.920
and it's crazy that I shouldn't be
thinking like this, but I do think

1084
01:32:53.000 --> 01:32:56.600
like this is how I think,
Like you know, I mean, like

1085
01:32:57.600 --> 01:33:00.800
you know, and it's it's weird. But this is how I think.

1086
01:33:01.720 --> 01:33:05.399
I brought my truck for bigfoot proof. You know what I mean. If

1087
01:33:05.399 --> 01:33:11.119
I'm gonna build the rocaides, you
know what I mean, I built for

1088
01:33:11.279 --> 01:33:14.439
bigfoot proof. You know what I
mean. And it's it's weird, and

1089
01:33:14.840 --> 01:33:16.000
you know what I mean, it's
kind of messed up. I think you

1090
01:33:16.039 --> 01:33:18.479
know what I mean. I mean, you know, because I do everything

1091
01:33:18.560 --> 01:33:23.720
overkill, like my front bumper,
my back bumper, my rock slidders on

1092
01:33:23.760 --> 01:33:28.399
the side of my truck at the
bottom. Everything is bigfoot proof. And

1093
01:33:28.720 --> 01:33:33.079
I go overkill on steel pipe,
whatever, my well dings, my wells,

1094
01:33:33.199 --> 01:33:42.479
everything. And you know, now
I moved into Tennessee, Eastern Tennessee.

1095
01:33:43.079 --> 01:33:47.119
I have bought property out there.
I don't want to mention where where

1096
01:33:47.319 --> 01:33:51.560
you mean I bought property, but
it's up in the mountains eastern Tennessee.

1097
01:33:53.680 --> 01:33:57.520
And like I told my wife the
other day, I'm gonna be honest with

1098
01:33:57.600 --> 01:34:00.359
it. This is what I told
her. Fifty percent of the reason why

1099
01:34:00.479 --> 01:34:04.319
I bought this property up in the
mountains, it's because of big Foot,

1100
01:34:04.880 --> 01:34:10.920
and the other fifty percent why I
bought this that piece of property on the

1101
01:34:10.960 --> 01:34:15.439
side of the mountain is for us. And she looked at me. She

1102
01:34:15.479 --> 01:34:18.640
because you're serious. I say,
yes, I'm serious, you know what

1103
01:34:18.680 --> 01:34:24.640
I mean? And then you know, she's starting to come around and she

1104
01:34:24.760 --> 01:34:27.520
started to think, you know what
this guy's telling her the truth? You

1105
01:34:27.600 --> 01:34:30.239
know what I mean. I mean, I never told her why I sold

1106
01:34:30.279 --> 01:34:35.680
my bike because I was I was
kind of afraid to tell her why.

1107
01:34:36.439 --> 01:34:40.760
But you mean, I never told
her, which I know she's gonna know

1108
01:34:40.960 --> 01:34:44.159
now if you put this on your
podcast, you know what I mean.

1109
01:34:44.720 --> 01:34:48.399
But but then she's gonna know why. You know what I mean. But

1110
01:34:48.479 --> 01:34:51.119
I mean, I never told her. I never told her anybody. You're

1111
01:34:51.199 --> 01:34:56.199
the first one and only one that
I told why I sold my bike.

1112
01:34:59.279 --> 01:35:03.119
That was too years ago. The
Eastern Tennessee property. Have you done research

1113
01:35:03.239 --> 01:35:08.600
tend to see if they're reportings on
that property or you just had a good

1114
01:35:08.640 --> 01:35:14.479
idea that you were in the right
area. Well, listening to other encounters

1115
01:35:15.520 --> 01:35:21.479
Eastern Tennessee, around the Kentucky area
and all that, I kind of got

1116
01:35:21.520 --> 01:35:29.199
an idea. And then I started
looking into it, and they had where

1117
01:35:29.359 --> 01:35:39.439
I bought my property. They had
four encounters in that town. I'm not

1118
01:35:39.560 --> 01:35:44.159
saying all my property, but like
I mean, in that town, they

1119
01:35:44.239 --> 01:35:47.239
have four encounters because I googled it. I don't want to say the name

1120
01:35:47.279 --> 01:35:54.000
of the town, you know what
I mean. And but but that what

1121
01:35:54.199 --> 01:36:00.079
I bought property in Tennessee. Fifty
percent of that reason why I bought that

1122
01:36:00.239 --> 01:36:06.880
property was because Bigfoot. Now I
want to get down and dirty, you

1123
01:36:06.920 --> 01:36:10.800
know what I'm trying to say.
I don't want to say that I want

1124
01:36:10.840 --> 01:36:15.159
to be a researcher or anything like
that, but I don't know. Just

1125
01:36:15.960 --> 01:36:19.800
I want to get down and dirty
with this creature. I'm gonna say killing

1126
01:36:19.840 --> 01:36:25.600
it or anything, you know,
But I'm just saying I want to.

1127
01:36:27.720 --> 01:36:31.640
I want to. I cannot put
it. I want to be like you,

1128
01:36:31.760 --> 01:36:42.800
a close or I want to be
around of all this feels like you

1129
01:36:42.880 --> 01:36:45.680
want the truth. You're trying to
figure out the truth. Well, I

1130
01:36:45.800 --> 01:36:53.439
know the truth. I've seen the
truth, sure, But I just I

1131
01:36:53.479 --> 01:36:55.520
don't know. I just can't explain
it. You know what I mean,

1132
01:36:56.840 --> 01:37:00.760
the reason why? But I mean
I both this probably like I said,

1133
01:37:00.840 --> 01:37:05.800
you know what I mean, how
the reasoning is because of this creature.

1134
01:37:06.199 --> 01:37:11.359
I want to know more about this
creature. I want to know everything about

1135
01:37:11.359 --> 01:37:15.359
this creature. I want to know
everything. When I was on my back

1136
01:37:15.399 --> 01:37:20.920
and this thing turned around and looked
at me, that thing looked human.

1137
01:37:24.800 --> 01:37:28.800
I don't care what anybody in this
country says, Oh they looked like gorillas,

1138
01:37:28.840 --> 01:37:31.359
they look like apes, they look
does this? That thing looked human.

1139
01:37:34.720 --> 01:37:39.680
And I know it's part human or
I don't know, three quarters human

1140
01:37:40.720 --> 01:37:45.039
and a quart of something else.
But this thing was human. This thing

1141
01:37:45.319 --> 01:37:55.880
looked at me. It kind of
at growled. The way he opened his

1142
01:37:56.039 --> 01:38:00.880
mouth and he looked at me.
It's like, what the app are you

1143
01:38:00.960 --> 01:38:05.640
looking at? That's what his eyes
was telling me, What the app are

1144
01:38:05.680 --> 01:38:11.720
you looking at? And he took
off with the deer under his arm,

1145
01:38:14.239 --> 01:38:19.359
and that right there, you know, And I got told you. I

1146
01:38:19.479 --> 01:38:26.439
went back to I went, I
went to that convenience store. I got

1147
01:38:26.520 --> 01:38:30.479
my coffee, lit up a cigarette. I'm talking to God, Why are

1148
01:38:30.479 --> 01:38:32.479
you doing this to me? Why
are you doing this to me? Why

1149
01:38:32.479 --> 01:38:36.880
are you tormenting me? You know
what I'm saying, Like, you know,

1150
01:38:38.279 --> 01:38:41.439
that's some moments where you talk to
God. That was one of my

1151
01:38:41.600 --> 01:38:45.600
moments, you know, asking him
why he's doing this to me. You

1152
01:38:45.680 --> 01:38:50.439
know, that's I thought it was. You know, I get to swat

1153
01:38:50.520 --> 01:38:55.720
diet. It feels like your story
is just beginning. Really once you moved

1154
01:38:55.800 --> 01:38:59.800
on to Tennessee. I think I
think things are gonna get pretty wild for

1155
01:38:59.880 --> 01:39:04.760
you. Yeah. You know the
really thord that I talked to do you

1156
01:39:04.840 --> 01:39:09.800
mean I dealt with when I bought
my property. You know, her husband

1157
01:39:09.920 --> 01:39:14.760
hunts a lot and stuff, and
and you mean, I was asking her

1158
01:39:14.800 --> 01:39:19.359
what kind of wild animals we have
out there and you know, and all

1159
01:39:19.399 --> 01:39:24.600
that stuff. And she was telling
me, and you know, and I'm

1160
01:39:24.640 --> 01:39:26.880
like, oh, that's good,
that's what I like to hunt this and

1161
01:39:27.000 --> 01:39:30.720
that, blah blah blah. And
I kind of made a joke with her.

1162
01:39:30.880 --> 01:39:33.119
I said, I hope there ain't
no big foot on the property.

1163
01:39:33.199 --> 01:39:38.319
Let me just joking around with her. And she's like never No. I

1164
01:39:38.479 --> 01:39:44.239
was like, okay, you never
know that, You'll never know She said

1165
01:39:45.640 --> 01:39:48.920
something. Yeah, she knows something, yep, yep. So you know

1166
01:39:49.119 --> 01:39:55.600
that's just it's like, I don't
know, that's the way. Yeah,

1167
01:39:55.800 --> 01:39:59.680
that last time there was a guy
we talking to God moment, I was

1168
01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:03.159
him why and you know what I
mean, And it's like I don't know,

1169
01:40:05.079 --> 01:40:14.520
but from what I've seen, how
how these things act, what I've

1170
01:40:14.560 --> 01:40:21.520
seen, I believe these things are
more human than anything else. Now,

1171
01:40:21.640 --> 01:40:26.520
you mean I hear they. I
hear these guys talk about they that they

1172
01:40:26.680 --> 01:40:30.199
came out of a spaceship. And
I don't believe that this is a flesh

1173
01:40:30.279 --> 01:40:38.359
and blood I say person, because
that's what I seen, just hair all

1174
01:40:38.439 --> 01:40:42.760
over it, you know what I
mean. That's that's what I've seen.

1175
01:40:43.560 --> 01:40:47.520
And I mean that's I will stick
with that. I'll tell I see someone.

1176
01:40:48.079 --> 01:40:54.439
It was like a monkey or a
Nate, the single human. And

1177
01:40:54.560 --> 01:40:58.560
you mean I was talking about why
I said these things are human. I

1178
01:40:58.680 --> 01:41:01.920
can't shoot one if I'm open to
tree stand or if I'm on the groundbline,

1179
01:41:02.119 --> 01:41:06.079
I couldn't shoot one. The only
way that I would shoot one it

1180
01:41:06.239 --> 01:41:11.279
was harming my family or my animals. And like I said, don't meet

1181
01:41:11.359 --> 01:41:18.720
Jesus, that's guaranteed. But I
couldn't shoot one just to shoot one,

1182
01:41:18.920 --> 01:41:20.840
you know what I mean. I
just couldn't do it. There's no way.

1183
01:41:23.239 --> 01:41:27.439
I hear you, I hear you, Swant Doug Man. It has

1184
01:41:27.520 --> 01:41:31.680
been an incredible conversation with you.
I'm so glad that you you contacted me

1185
01:41:31.800 --> 01:41:36.800
because this has been incredible. Thank
you. Yeah. I just I mean,

1186
01:41:36.960 --> 01:41:39.920
it's like I was telling you earlier, you know. I mean I

1187
01:41:39.960 --> 01:41:43.880
I listened to your shows all the
time, every night, every night,

1188
01:41:44.000 --> 01:41:45.479
every night, you know. I
mean, like, you know, two

1189
01:41:45.560 --> 01:41:49.960
or three shows at night I listened
to. And it's like I was telling

1190
01:41:50.000 --> 01:41:55.720
you, a lot of these guys
that have these podcast shows, it's like

1191
01:41:58.319 --> 01:42:05.960
like they know everything and like,
I don't know, it's just I'm not

1192
01:42:06.039 --> 01:42:11.199
gonna try to say they're cocky or
something or but they act like they know

1193
01:42:11.319 --> 01:42:14.680
it all and they know everything.
And you know, I mean, all

1194
01:42:14.720 --> 01:42:18.159
these guys are doing wood knocks and
all this other stuff. That stuff don't

1195
01:42:18.199 --> 01:42:23.680
work. If you're going out there
looking for one, you'll never find one.

1196
01:42:24.960 --> 01:42:30.039
Every encounter that I had, every
time I heard one, I never

1197
01:42:30.319 --> 01:42:35.520
was looking for one. And all
these guys going in the woods, they're

1198
01:42:35.600 --> 01:42:41.560
howling and whooping and doing three knocks, They're never going to find one.

1199
01:42:42.319 --> 01:42:47.840
These things are intelligent. For this
thing to stand up with a deer under

1200
01:42:47.920 --> 01:42:53.760
his arm, turn around at me
and he was looking like, what the

1201
01:42:53.840 --> 01:42:59.119
app are you looking at? And
he ran. This thing's smart, like

1202
01:42:59.319 --> 01:43:02.079
you know what I mean, They're
not like a bear, you know,

1203
01:43:02.119 --> 01:43:05.039
I mean, because the bear would
have just stayed there, or you mean,

1204
01:43:05.119 --> 01:43:10.720
Kyle would have just stayed there.
You know what I mean. This

1205
01:43:10.960 --> 01:43:16.199
thing took off and it knew I
was scared. I had a feeling that

1206
01:43:16.359 --> 01:43:25.840
this this last time. It knew
that I was scared, and he knew

1207
01:43:26.399 --> 01:43:33.600
I wasn't gonna do nothing. It
was like it was like he was head

1208
01:43:33.680 --> 01:43:38.720
hacho and he and he knew he
was the ship. You know what I'm

1209
01:43:38.720 --> 01:43:45.039
trying to say, Like you know
about yeah, and you know it just

1210
01:43:45.399 --> 01:43:47.920
it's just accuracy with people say like
oh, like God give me. Like

1211
01:43:47.960 --> 01:43:54.920
the other day I heard I heard
somebody saying that they saw these orbs going

1212
01:43:55.039 --> 01:43:59.640
through the woods and inside the orb
they saw it book book face. You

1213
01:43:59.680 --> 01:44:03.800
can't me, I don't think so
you know, that's kind of stuff that

1214
01:44:04.399 --> 01:44:06.720
that kind of upsets me, you
know what I mean, because I don't

1215
01:44:06.720 --> 01:44:11.520
know what they're joking about this this
issue or what. I don't know.

1216
01:44:12.279 --> 01:44:16.439
But you know, I mean when
I can't say that didn't happen because I

1217
01:44:16.600 --> 01:44:21.880
wasn't there, but I saw these
things up and close. Like I said,

1218
01:44:21.920 --> 01:44:25.720
the last two times, I've seen
it up and close. This is

1219
01:44:25.840 --> 01:44:30.479
not no spaceship. I don't care
what anybody says. This is more human

1220
01:44:32.760 --> 01:44:40.079
than anything. And the eyes,
it's like I said, I've never seen

1221
01:44:40.119 --> 01:44:45.720
no eyeshine. When I was on
my bike, I didn't see no eyeshine.

1222
01:44:45.840 --> 01:44:49.199
I saw black eyes. And when
I was in my truck and I

1223
01:44:49.359 --> 01:44:54.399
looked up and I've seen this one
running across the parking lot, I didn't

1224
01:44:54.399 --> 01:45:00.680
see no eyeshine. It had black
eyes. The hands, the hands were

1225
01:45:00.800 --> 01:45:09.000
like my hands, but three or
four times bigger than my hands. Everybody's

1226
01:45:09.000 --> 01:45:12.399
talking about like a catcher's net.
I think it was bigger than a catcher's

1227
01:45:12.439 --> 01:45:18.239
met. This thing was huge.
And I was saying myself, this thing

1228
01:45:18.279 --> 01:45:23.720
I ever grassed somebody. That's it. They're done, you know what I

1229
01:45:23.800 --> 01:45:30.920
mean? You know, but I
don't know. I just that's I don't

1230
01:45:30.960 --> 01:45:32.199
know what I was cursed with this, you know. I mean, I

1231
01:45:32.239 --> 01:45:40.399
don't know. But eighty nine was
the first year I see one. As

1232
01:45:40.800 --> 01:45:44.279
the last time I've seen it was
like two years ago. I don't think

1233
01:45:44.319 --> 01:45:46.840
it's the last time either. If
you're headed to East Tennessee, man,

1234
01:45:47.239 --> 01:45:51.920
yeah, yeah, I know that's
what you think you know what I mean.

1235
01:45:53.000 --> 01:45:58.920
Yeah, I mean, you know
and like you know right now right

1236
01:45:58.960 --> 01:46:04.920
because it's kind of funny because I'm
mostly but I'm mostly both hunt. But

1237
01:46:05.119 --> 01:46:16.199
then now i'm looking at since i'm
moving to that area I'm looking at I'm

1238
01:46:16.239 --> 01:46:19.479
looking at big guns, you know
what I mean, fifty caliber, you

1239
01:46:19.560 --> 01:46:27.760
know what I'm saying. I'm thinking, this is what I need. If

1240
01:46:27.800 --> 01:46:32.199
I'm on my property and I come
across one of these things and it's you're

1241
01:46:32.239 --> 01:46:38.359
men trying to harm us, I
need a fifty caliber. I don't know.

1242
01:46:39.319 --> 01:46:42.239
I don't know. I'm a forty
seven is going to do it.

1243
01:46:42.359 --> 01:46:46.359
I don't know. You know what
I mean. I've seen him like like

1244
01:46:46.479 --> 01:46:50.199
on videos. I've seen him knocked
down brown bears and grizzly bears, you

1245
01:46:50.279 --> 01:46:57.359
know what I mean. But I
gotta get me a fifty caliber. I

1246
01:46:57.479 --> 01:47:00.800
even looked up how much the box
of pullets for. That's something her ninety

1247
01:47:00.840 --> 01:47:04.600
five dollars for a box of bullets
for a fifty caliber, you know what

1248
01:47:04.640 --> 01:47:12.159
I mean. It sounds investment for
sure, But yeah, yeah, this

1249
01:47:12.359 --> 01:47:15.239
is how I'm thinking. This is
how I'm telling you. I'm thinking this

1250
01:47:15.399 --> 01:47:19.319
way. Everything I do, I
think about this creature, like from my

1251
01:47:19.439 --> 01:47:24.119
truck all to my property. What
kind of handguns do I need? What

1252
01:47:24.279 --> 01:47:28.439
kind of rifle will put this thing
down if it comes at me? If

1253
01:47:28.479 --> 01:47:31.760
I'm on my property and I'm in
a tree stand and this thing's coming at

1254
01:47:31.840 --> 01:47:36.880
me, What do I need to
put this thing down before it, like

1255
01:47:36.960 --> 01:47:42.239
it gets to me? You know
what I mean? These are the things

1256
01:47:42.319 --> 01:47:44.399
that go through my head. You
know what I mean, Like you know

1257
01:47:44.399 --> 01:47:46.880
what I'm saying, Like you mean, I'm just I'm trying to prepare myself,

1258
01:47:47.000 --> 01:47:51.399
you know. And you my wife, you know, she's she started,

1259
01:47:51.560 --> 01:47:56.840
uh like I mean, she knows
this is no joke, you know

1260
01:47:56.880 --> 01:48:00.479
what I mean. And it's just
it's like, I don't know, this

1261
01:48:00.680 --> 01:48:03.920
is a part of my lot.
I guess her eyes are starting to get

1262
01:48:04.000 --> 01:48:11.199
