Terrifying Bigfoot Encounters Shock Witnesses Across North America

This episode brings together an incredible collection of firsthand Bigfoot encounters from across North America. You'll hear reports from the Jemez Mountains of New Mexico, the Navajo Reservation, the forests of Alabama, the mountains of Western North Carolina, the hills of Ohio, and the Pacific Northwest near Monroe, Washington.


Witnesses describe terrifying screams in the woods, massive footprints, mysterious tree knocks, rocks and pine cones thrown from unseen sources, overwhelming odors, nighttime campsite disturbances, and close visual encounters with towering hairy figures. One guest shares a childhood experience that stayed with them for decades. Another recounts a frightening encounter that sent an entire group running for safety. Others describe years of unexplained activity around remote homes deep in the mountains.


Every story is told directly by the people who experienced it. If you've ever wondered how widespread Bigfoot encounters really are, this episode offers a fascinating look at reports from some of the most active regions in North America.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:33.200
So stay with us. Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers

11
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:37.320
as he continues his fight against cancer. For more updates

14
00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:49.399
Thank you, Hey, yeah great. Feel free to share what

15
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:50.000
you would like to.

16
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:53.479
Okay, well, I've never seen one, but I've had some

17
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:59.399
weird experiences, and those I've had weird.

18
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:00.679
I've been all over.

19
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:04.840
United States and Canada and whatever, but I've always spent

20
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:08.719
time in the woods, either sports or you know, just hiking.

21
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:12.719
So I'll tell you about what I didn't know was

22
00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:16.480
like Bigfoot, and that would be like acorns being thrown

23
00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:19.840
at me, small stones or big rocks thrown in front

24
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:23.239
of me, you know, over my head from behind into

25
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:27.079
a creek in front of me, and I didn't know

26
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:28.040
what it was, you.

27
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:29.439
Know, I just that was weird.

28
00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:31.400
Maybe it bounced off one of the hills, because a

29
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:33.519
lot of times I'm either in mountains or in hills.

30
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:36.840
So I didn't think nothing of it. And then also

31
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:41.760
until later, I found out that no, squirrels can't throw things,

32
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:48.200
raccoons can't really throw things, and maybe birds could drop things.

33
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:49.439
But I've always looked up.

34
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:52.040
When I you know, when that happened, I never saw anything.

35
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:57.959
So that's that was my first. I had that all

36
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:02.079
through you know, youth and whatnot, and never really thought

37
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:05.560
too much about it. One time I was hiking through

38
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:07.640
the woods and I saw this great, big, huge den

39
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:12.400
in a kind of a swampy area, and it was

40
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:17.439
probably about fifteen foot tall from the ground up, and

41
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:20.439
it had what looked like a doorway to it, and

42
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:22.080
I thought, you know, kids had.

43
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:23.400
Built it as a fort.

44
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:26.479
But so I went to approach it to go explore it,

45
00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:31.039
and it stunk like the hair, you know, my arms

46
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:34.759
and everything just stood straight up. Feared like I've never

47
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:39.120
had before. And by that time I was probably oh thirteen,

48
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:42.240
fourteen fifteen someplace around there. And I've been in the

49
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.800
woods all my life, so Nothing's ever scared me like

50
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:49.240
that night, even bear sightings or moose sightings or anything

51
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:52.039
like that. So that was a weird one. I didn't

52
00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:55.120
know about the stink at that time either, or the nests,

53
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:57.840
so I looked up every kind of animal I could

54
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:01.000
find that would make you know, bears in your bear duns,

55
00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:04.080
they don't stink like that, not until you have to

56
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:07.919
get maybe in the spring, you know. But they don't

57
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:09.960
smell like I know what skunks smell like. I know,

58
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:14.560
wet dogs smell like. I never smelled this before. Okay,

59
00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:20.479
And then I had another stink that included military. I mean,

60
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.319
you know, these things just sort of happen all the time.

61
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:31.240
And so this one was in West Virginia. Let me

62
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:34.960
see about the stinks. The other the other stink was

63
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:41.759
in Ohio. But a military plane had been like doing

64
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:45.240
practices or searching for something, and it almost looked like

65
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:49.280
a cargo plane with equipment on it. And it had

66
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:53.120
been doing it for a couple of weeks through throughout

67
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:55.240
the mountains. You could see it going up and down

68
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:59.319
throughout the Appalachian Mountains. This is in it's one's West Virginia,

69
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:03.919
and I was hiking and you couldn't hear the plane.

70
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:06.639
All of a sudden it came from above. It was

71
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:09.520
tree line. It came from behind me, and I didn't

72
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:11.719
hear it until it was right over top of me.

73
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:17.240
And when I looked up at it, it was at treeline.

74
00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:19.959
This great, big, huge plane.

75
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.160
And I don't know military planes, you know, I know

76
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:26.319
it's a military plane, that's about it, but huge, and

77
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:32.759
it was like clouded, shrouded with white, a white mist,

78
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.279
and it kept going and next thing I know, it

79
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:39.079
hit me the stink to a place where I've gone

80
00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:42.839
like hundreds of times, and the fear that went over

81
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:45.639
me was so huge I had to get out of there.

82
00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:48.399
I could not take another step further. And you know,

83
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:57.240
at the coyotes out west, wolves, grizzlies up in Canada, moose, whatever,

84
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:01.399
never scared me as bad as this wildcat, never scared

85
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:03.120
me as bad as that, And that was weird. I

86
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:04.920
wouldn't go back in the woods for I don't know

87
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:09.959
how long. So that was another one. And then one

88
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:12.879
in Ohio. We're in the middle of the night. It

89
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.720
sounded like something totally trashed or campsite. We had a shelter,

90
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.439
they were on the roof. Sounded like everything was being

91
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:22.120
thrown down on the ground. Everything was being ripped apart.

92
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:25.600
Found the next I thought, well, one of the guys

93
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:27.759
probably got drunk and we'll just have to clean it up.

94
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:31.519
It's not my business, it's his life, you know. And

95
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.720
we cleaned it up in the morning. Well the next morning, nothing,

96
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:38.040
nothing had been moved. The guy he said, no, I

97
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:39.839
didn't drink. I just went to bed, and I'm like,

98
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:42.639
oh crap, you know, but I looked around.

99
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.319
We looked around and found this great.

100
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:51.399
Big, huge footprint on this plastic turp that it was

101
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:56.519
a dog print, and it was okay, I have a

102
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:01.439
eighty pound German shepherd print. You could have stuck at

103
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.360
least three, maybe four of her prints into that one.

104
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:06.439
And that's all we found.

105
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:12.759
And let me see, is there anything else that one was?

106
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:14.839
Did I tell you it was in Ohio?

107
00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:15.600
Yeah?

108
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:19.319
So those are just weird things that have happened. I've

109
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:20.519
never seen anything.

110
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:26.279
Can you share what area of Ohio?

111
00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:31.240
Or like, yeah, well that that weird one where the

112
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:33.240
shelter got attacked in the middle of the night. I

113
00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:35.399
even had a recording of it, but freaked me out

114
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.920
so bad I threw my phone because I replayed it

115
00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:41.519
because I couldn't believe what I was hearing, because I

116
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:44.000
wanted to you know, yeah, when.

117
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:44.759
Everybody woke up.

118
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:46.360
I didn't want to wake everybody up, but you know,

119
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:49.920
I wanted them to hear what was going on. It

120
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.199
deleted itself. I never found that recording again. But that

121
00:06:54.399 --> 00:07:01.399
was that for oh in Ohio, Okay, Virginia be south

122
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:12.399
south west, west Virginia, North Carolina. Was that North Carolina

123
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:17.240
or was it West Virginia, northwest Virginia I'm trying to

124
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:19.720
think of. North Carolina. Was where I had things thrown

125
00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:23.199
as well? Ohio, I had things thrown. I've had things

126
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:25.399
thrown like all my life because I used to like

127
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:28.120
to look into the water since I was like three

128
00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:31.120
feet tall, you know, look at the stones and the.

129
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:32.040
Creeks and stuff.

130
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:35.680
So the things being thrown has happened to me all

131
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:38.120
my life. So that could be any state in the

132
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:39.040
United States.

133
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.600
Have you ever been in a group where someone has

134
00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:43.639
had a sighting before?

135
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:49.600
No, but I've seen kids freak out and people freak out,

136
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:52.680
but I never saw anything, and I didn't. I just

137
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:55.279
thought they were just being woosa's.

138
00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:59.040
To be honest, not to be mean.

139
00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:00.560
But you know, I didn't even here.

140
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:01.040
A big foot.

141
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:04.759
No, I get it until you know, yeah, I.

142
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:07.360
Know, I know when I hear like a you know,

143
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:11.240
snort and buck and a bear coming through, or even

144
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:14.160
a fight and cat fights, cat scream and you know,

145
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:15.560
I've I've heard it all.

146
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:19.480
So anything that didn't I.

147
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:22.600
Couldn't put an animal to are the things I just

148
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:25.600
told you about absolutely really weird.

156
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:50.639
Well. I live in New Mexico now, but I am

157
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:55.279
from Kentucky, uh and I've done a lot of investigation

158
00:08:55.440 --> 00:09:01.000
in Kentucky and Ohio and Indiana. I belonged to a

159
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:05.840
group at that time was the Ohio UFO Investigators League,

160
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:11.320
but before that, in nineteen seventy three. I was a

161
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:15.360
runaway and I was in the mountains of New Mexico

162
00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:21.000
called the Hamus Mountains, and I was walking down the trail.

163
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:24.840
This is nineteen seventy three. So I was walking down

164
00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:30.240
the trail and I heard something crash behind me. It

165
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:34.799
was several feet behind me, and it was well, I

166
00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:37.200
guess it was around about four thirty in the afternoon,

167
00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:43.600
and I was walking down this trail to the stream.

168
00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:47.279
And when I heard the crash, I turned around and

169
00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:55.799
I seen this bipedal creature. I'm not going to say

170
00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:57.639
it was a bear because it wasn't a bear because

171
00:09:57.639 --> 00:10:01.080
it was standing up on two feet and uh, it

172
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:05.639
looked right at me, and h the first thing, I thought,

173
00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:08.039
it's going to kill me, because you know, I was young,

174
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:12.799
Italy and uh. And I started started to run and

175
00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:17.200
I heard footsteps behind me, and then all of a sudden,

176
00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:20.919
they stopped and I turned around to look, and uh,

177
00:10:21.679 --> 00:10:25.159
it was gone. So apparently he went back into the woods.

178
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:30.879
So but uh, so I started walking back towards the

179
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:34.799
direction where it was and I could smell the stench. Uh,

180
00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:38.080
it smelled like rotten meat. Uh.

181
00:10:38.639 --> 00:10:39.080
And uh.

182
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.679
I went back to the to the area where I

183
00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:44.879
was staying at and there was a there was a

184
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:48.360
couple there that they were black boots, and they told me, oh, yeah,

185
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:51.960
then he's he's been around for a while. So if

186
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:55.600
you see him again, just yell and we'll come running.

187
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:00.000
So but that was that was my experience at seeing

188
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:00.879
in a big foot.

189
00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:04.559
But I had sorry, real quick, did you did it

190
00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:07.840
have any emotion to its face at all?

191
00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:11.279
Actually, the only thing I could see was its eyes.

192
00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:16.519
I couldn't really couldn't really see the facial features because

193
00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:20.080
I was I wasn't really that close. I was close,

194
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:24.919
but I wasn't that close. But I could tell he

195
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:29.279
was very hairy, and he stood about seven seven and

196
00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:36.320
a half maybe eight foot tall. And like I said,

197
00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:39.799
it just and every time I heard the footsteps behind me,

198
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:43.399
you could hear a thumb thumb, tumb thumb, you know.

199
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:46.240
So you know, I mean, he was just he was.

200
00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:50.159
He could have caught me anytime. But when I didn't

201
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:53.279
hear the steps anymore, I turned around and that's when

202
00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:58.159
I noticed he was gone. But I have many stories

203
00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:03.200
people have told me over the years from Kentucky in

204
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:09.919
Trigg County, Kentucky and hazard. One of them the guy

205
00:12:10.360 --> 00:12:14.919
named the Bigfoot Brownie because he was a brown fur

206
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:22.919
and he would leave him gifts all the time, and

207
00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:26.799
this guy would turn around and leave him gifts. So

208
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:32.159
it was just amazing to hear some of these stories.

209
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:37.639
One story from a friend of mine who was a splunker,

210
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:43.960
said that he found a footprint that was at least

211
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:51.960
fifteen to sixteen inches long in flowstone in a cave

212
00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:58.080
while he was exploring a cave, and he said nobody

213
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.360
had been there before, because that's what he used to do,

214
00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:06.399
used to go in and map caves. So uh, but

215
00:13:06.519 --> 00:13:10.679
I used to I belonged to I belonged, I should

216
00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:13.840
say belong past tense. I belonged to a group called

217
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:15.799
Western Bigfoot Society.

218
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:22.519
With Ray Crow. Yes, yeah, way back in the day, right.

219
00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:24.799
Way back in the day. And I wrote, I wrote

220
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:29.080
a couple of news uh articles uh in his uh

221
00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:32.480
in his uh the track.

222
00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:34.600
Track record, yeah, track.

223
00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:39.720
Record, and uh. But I also had a little booklet

224
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:47.080
of my own called Focusing on Subsquatch, and I told

225
00:13:47.120 --> 00:13:50.399
these stories in that in that and I I guess

226
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:52.679
I had it for about a year. I only put

227
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:56.519
him out once every three months. So but it was

228
00:13:57.000 --> 00:13:59.039
like I said go ahead.

229
00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:02.440
Was that a collection of encounters or what was that about?

230
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:08.159
What the Oh? Yes, it was a collection of what

231
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:12.759
I was told? And that was that was the The

232
00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:17.840
article in the in the newsletter was called I was

233
00:14:17.960 --> 00:14:22.799
Told And I would tell these stories as I was,

234
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:26.799
and I you know, and I would write down everything.

235
00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:30.799
I put them on the recorder and stuff like that.

236
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:31.200
You know.

237
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:35.799
So, I mean, I believe in Bigfoot. I'm too old

238
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:41.360
to go squatching now. I'm sixty seven years old and

239
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:45.960
I'm disabled, so I can't really do it anymore. But

240
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.639
the subject always has a place in my heart.

241
00:14:49.320 --> 00:14:50.000
Oh, I hear you.

242
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:53.000

up and chatting. Thank you so much.

260
00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:49.120
That was really nice. Hey, Bill, you thanks for coming up.

261
00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:53.200
So you had an interesting sighting. It sounds like with

262
00:15:53.320 --> 00:15:54.279
some of your relatives.

263
00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:58.440
Yes, when I was a kid, I'm I'm Native American.

264
00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.320
So growing up in reservation, we didn't have TV, electricity

265
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:08.039
or running water or anything. And my father always liked

266
00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:11.320
to take us camping and stuff with our rest of

267
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:16.440
our other family members. And I remember one time there

268
00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:18.919
was like a big revival that was happening, and my

269
00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:21.559
father is not a Christian guy. He believed Native American

270
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:25.200
traditional teachings and stuff, but he always liked to go

271
00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:28.480
camping whenever his family did. And his mother was more

272
00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:33.080
of the Christian woman, and so she invited all her

273
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:35.279
children and she had, like I think my dad had

274
00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:38.600
like eight siblings and him, so it was like nine children.

275
00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:42.399
And so everybody went camping at this big revival and

276
00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:45.080
my father was like, if you don't want to go

277
00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:48.440
to the children's church thing, you guys can go play

278
00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:51.799
with your siblings or your siblings and your cousins and

279
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:54.879
you know, go go play, but don't like mess up

280
00:16:54.960 --> 00:16:59.639
the service that's happening. And so that's what we did.

281
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.759
My cousins and my brother, we all decided to go

282
00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:06.759
into the woods and go play. And there was one

283
00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:08.680
game that they liked to play. It was they called

284
00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:11.880
it war, but really was like a pine cone fight.

285
00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:16.119
And so we were tossing around pine cones, like the

286
00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:19.759
dried brown ones that are like light and airy and

287
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:21.440
it doesn't hurt when it hits you.

288
00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:25.680
But this one thing that.

289
00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:28.680
Was crazy was when we were kind of far from

290
00:17:28.720 --> 00:17:33.880
the camp when we were laughing and throwing around pine cones. Well,

291
00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:37.119
one of my little one of my little cousins, he

292
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:39.799
got hit with a fresh pine cone, the green hard

293
00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:42.759
ones that still have spikes on them, that hurt really bad.

294
00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:46.599
And we're like, hey, guys, just just throw the brown

295
00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.119
pine cones. Don't throw the green fresh pine cones. Those

296
00:17:49.160 --> 00:17:51.359
hurt too much. And we're like, okay. We had an

297
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:55.799
understanding and we started playing again. Well, another kid, one

298
00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:58.559
of my other cousins, he got hit with a fresh one,

299
00:17:58.599 --> 00:18:05.240
and we're like guys seriously throwing those hurt and once

300
00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:07.000
we were talking to each other, we were all like

301
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:11.359
huddled up. One of the green pine cones comes flying,

302
00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:14.400
but we all saw it, but it came flying from

303
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:17.400
the top of the trees and it was any of us,

304
00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:19.839
and so we thought, like, you know, another family from

305
00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:22.799
the revival followed us, or one of the kids from

306
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:25.119
the revival followed us, and you know, they're playing a

307
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:28.000
trick on us. So we all looked up into the trees.

308
00:18:27.799 --> 00:18:30.680
And we're like, hey, who's up there. You can't be

309
00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:32.400
throwing pine cones from up there.

310
00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:36.039
It hurts, and so all of us we decided to

311
00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:38.359
go walking around the trees to look up. And these

312
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:43.039
trees are pretty like grothy, like thick trees. So we're

313
00:18:43.079 --> 00:18:46.160
like our eyes are looking up into the tree line

314
00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:50.279
and we're walking around this big old trunk and that's

315
00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:52.920
when we see the thing. And we all thought it

316
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:56.119
was a monkey, because you know, we said, we didn't

317
00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:59.759
have like TV or anything like that. All we knew

318
00:18:59.839 --> 00:19:03.920
was like national geographic magazines, and all we saw was

319
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:08.960
you know, monkeys or like big cats like cheetahs and

320
00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:10.119
lions and stuff like that.

321
00:19:10.240 --> 00:19:12.599
So what we saw was.

322
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:16.400
It looked like in a ring ating like the same

323
00:19:16.480 --> 00:19:19.559
reddish brown color, and it looked like a monkey, and

324
00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:23.000
it wasn't really big. It's probably the size of my

325
00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:28.480
oldest cousin, who was like seventeen. And we freaked out

326
00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:31.359
because I know, I've never seen something like that before.

327
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:33.119
And in.

328
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:38.160
When my grandparents and my elders used to talk in

329
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:41.640
Navajo and tell us like stories, they mentioned, you know

330
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:46.559
this tall, hairy being that takes children or you know,

331
00:19:46.680 --> 00:19:48.240
takes livestock and stuff.

332
00:19:49.400 --> 00:19:51.400
So we're like, oh, we started.

333
00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:53.799
Running and we're hauling, you know, we're hauling it down

334
00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:57.599
the road back towards the dirt road that we came on.

335
00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:01.359
We started running back towards the revol and I remember

336
00:20:01.440 --> 00:20:05.839
running straight into the revival tent and like yelling for

337
00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:08.400
my dad, and my dad grabbed me and picked me

338
00:20:08.480 --> 00:20:10.599
up and walked me out of the tent, and I

339
00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:13.640
told him what happened in what we saw, and my

340
00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:16.559
dad like he never told me I was lying. He

341
00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:19.759
never like tried to like tell me that, you know,

342
00:20:19.960 --> 00:20:21.079
that's not true or whatever.

343
00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:21.880
He was kind of.

344
00:20:21.839 --> 00:20:25.720
Concerned, and then he just told me, like, don't go

345
00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:31.160
too far next time. But there's always been stories about

346
00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:36.480
beings like Bigfoot, and I thought I was the only

347
00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:40.880
one who remembered that until you know, one time we

348
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:46.519
moved off the reservation and we had like TV and

349
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:48.759
cable and all that stuff, and I remember seeing this

350
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:53.119
like Bigfoot documentary and I was like, oh, crap, that's

351
00:20:53.119 --> 00:20:55.640
what I saw. And I looked at my brother and

352
00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:58.440
he looked at me. And then we haven't spoken about this,

353
00:20:58.519 --> 00:21:02.000
and we're like in our twenties, and I looked at

354
00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:06.240
him and I was like, hey, you remember when we

355
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:08.839
were really young and what we saw in the mountains

356
00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:10.640
of that one time there was a revival and he's

357
00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:13.279
like yeah, He's like, I thought you forgot about that.

358
00:21:13.319 --> 00:21:16.319
I was like, I'm never forgotten about what we saw,

359
00:21:16.720 --> 00:21:20.960
and so I was like, that's what we saw, right,

360
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:24.480
He's like yeah. Because and then people were like, oh, no,

361
00:21:24.559 --> 00:21:27.200
like I told non natives the story before and they're like, no,

362
00:21:27.400 --> 00:21:31.039
it's probably like you know, some animals escape from the zoo,

363
00:21:31.079 --> 00:21:33.519
and I'm like, if you've ever been to the reservation,

364
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.799
you know, hundreds of miles away from us, our zoos,

365
00:21:38.279 --> 00:21:41.559
they're nowhere near us, and we live in a desert

366
00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:46.160
and this happened on like a mountain though surrounded by desert.

367
00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:51.920
But yeah, that's my I guess my bigfoot.

368
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:56.200
Did I hear you say this is this is on

369
00:21:56.440 --> 00:21:57.759
the Navajo Restoration.

370
00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:03.000
Yeah, it's on the Navaja. Oh yeah, I'm not the

371
00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:05.680
only person who've seen like stuff like that.

372
00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:10.400
Yeah, oh absolutely. I just interviewed a gentleman from the

373
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:13.799
Navajo Reservation a few weeks ago. His name is Donovan,

374
00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:20.200
and the stories he was sharing are absolutely incredible. He's

375
00:22:20.200 --> 00:22:25.079
on TikTok as well, but I mean he was. I

376
00:22:25.079 --> 00:22:28.039
think he was referring to it as looking orangutan as

377
00:22:28.079 --> 00:22:31.039
well for a few of his accounts, So that's very interesting.

378
00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:34.680
But yeah, the Navajo Reservation, you guys have some wild,

379
00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:38.079
wild stuff going on all the time.

380
00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:41.799
Yeah, definitely, most definitely we have stories about you know,

381
00:22:42.359 --> 00:22:45.640
Navjo witches, like skin walkers and stuff, and they're not

382
00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:49.160
like what non natives say on TikTok. They're not like everything.

383
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:55.079
Everything can't be a skinwalker. But there's definitely stories like that.

384
00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:57.759
Things different, weird things.

385
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:00.720
But that's a whole.

386
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:02.599
Thing I can tell you about. But yeah, I just

387
00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:05.680
wanted to tell you my bigfoot story. But yeah, have

388
00:23:05.839 --> 00:23:11.519
a reservation is pretty scary, and and then people are like, no,

389
00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:14.279
they're mits, and I was like, okay, if you believe

390
00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:15.880
that they're mits, Okay, it.

391
00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:19.880
Doesn't sound like I've.

392
00:23:19.720 --> 00:23:22.079
Been a reservation and go camp out there.

393
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:27.799
Oh man, yeah you'll find out. Okay. Yeah, absolutely. Well,

394
00:23:28.279 --> 00:23:31.400
thank you for coming up and for sharing your experience.

395
00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:32.319
I appreciate that.

396
00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:35.920
Yeah, no problem, thank you.

397
00:23:36.880 --> 00:23:37.279
Hi.

398
00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:38.240
How are you doing.

399
00:23:38.960 --> 00:23:44.240
I'm doing good. So what do you got going on today?

400
00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:47.000
Well, I had to work today, but I'm at home now,

401
00:23:47.160 --> 00:23:48.200
so that's a good thing.

402
00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:49.799
Yeah.

403
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:51.960
Yeah.

404
00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:55.799
I have quite a few interesting stories. They did not

405
00:23:56.079 --> 00:24:00.920
happen at my home, but they happened at my sister's home.

406
00:24:01.599 --> 00:24:07.440
And we lived near the mountains in North Carolina, and

407
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:13.599
her and her husband shared oh my gosh, well over

408
00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:18.960
fifty acres of land back in the woods. Their driveway

409
00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:24.599
was two miles to get to their house, a gravel driveway,

410
00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:29.880
and you could see the mountains behind their house. And

411
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:33.079
I was witnessed to quite a few things that happened

412
00:24:33.279 --> 00:24:39.400
at her home. For instance, one night I spent the

413
00:24:39.519 --> 00:24:46.039
night with them, and I kept hearing loud banging on

414
00:24:46.200 --> 00:24:51.200
the side of their house. I mean, very very loud banging,

415
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:55.119
and I sat up and I'm like, what is that?

416
00:24:55.559 --> 00:24:59.519
And my son was there also, but he was a

417
00:24:59.599 --> 00:25:04.440
teena and I'm like, okay, why is my son beating

418
00:25:04.680 --> 00:25:11.519
on my sister's house. Well, I finally went to sleep.

419
00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:15.000
In the next morning, I woke up and I asked

420
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:17.920
my son. I said, Hunter, why were you beating on

421
00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:21.440
Missy my sister's name MISSI. I said, why were you

422
00:25:21.480 --> 00:25:24.200
beating on her house? He said, did you hear that?

423
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:29.599
I said yeah? He said, Mom, why would I be

424
00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:32.880
outside in the middle of the night beating on the house?

425
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:38.079
Come on? And I'm like, okay, it wasn't you? All right?

426
00:25:39.319 --> 00:25:50.319
Oh gosh, there's so many instances. We actually found a huge, huge,

427
00:25:51.319 --> 00:25:55.440
enormous pile of feces at the edge of the woods.

428
00:25:57.480 --> 00:26:01.279
I'm talking about a mound. I've never seen anything like

429
00:26:01.359 --> 00:26:05.240
this in my life. And this may sound crazy, but

430
00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:09.799
me and my sister googled every kind of pieces you

431
00:26:09.839 --> 00:26:14.480
can think of. No, we never found anything that looked

432
00:26:14.480 --> 00:26:18.440
like that. It was not bear, it was not dog.

433
00:26:20.440 --> 00:26:22.839
The list goes on and on. It was not it

434
00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:27.319
was not it was not well.

435
00:26:27.960 --> 00:26:32.119
She also took pictures of.

436
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:38.319
The huge footprints outside in her backyard in the mud,

437
00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:41.920
and they were.

438
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:47.039
Extremely extremely big and.

439
00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:54.319
Very deep, deep, deep deep in the mud, much much

440
00:26:54.359 --> 00:26:58.599
bigger than oh gosh, a man with his size twelve shoe,

441
00:26:58.839 --> 00:27:03.000
much much bigger than at and she and I and

442
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:09.279
also I heard this when I would visit them. Tree

443
00:27:09.359 --> 00:27:15.519
knocks many, many, tree knocks many, And they had no neighbors,

444
00:27:15.920 --> 00:27:18.759
no neighbors at all. And like I said, they were

445
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:25.720
two miles back in the woods. We heard tree knocks,

446
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:35.519
we heard I don't want to say growl. I can't

447
00:27:35.559 --> 00:27:41.240
even describe the howling, growling whatever.

448
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:46.720
I can't describe that. And oh gosh, there's so many stories.

449
00:27:47.680 --> 00:27:51.559
My sister and I were standing in the driveway and

450
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:57.240
from the woods we were having not big rocks, but

451
00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:03.160
stones being thrown at us from the woods and they

452
00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:04.559
were actually hitting us.

453
00:28:06.440 --> 00:28:06.759
Wow.

454
00:28:08.920 --> 00:28:09.759
Just oh.

455
00:28:09.839 --> 00:28:13.599
And also my aunt, my aunt Katie, stayed with my

456
00:28:13.759 --> 00:28:19.680
sister and she heard scratching outside of her window and

457
00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:22.799
she's like, what is that which she didn't look.

458
00:28:23.640 --> 00:28:24.799
And the next morning and.

459
00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:27.799
She said, she asked my sister. She said, y'all need

460
00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:30.519
to cut that tree in front of the window. And

461
00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:33.880
my sister's like, there is no tree in front of

462
00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:39.839
that window, and the window, oh my gosh, was seven

463
00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:44.359
eight foot off the ground. And my sister says, Katie,

464
00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:47.079
there is no tree outside that window.

465
00:28:47.279 --> 00:28:50.000
So there was scratching tapping on the window.

466
00:28:52.440 --> 00:28:54.680
And like I said, there's so so many stories, but

467
00:28:54.839 --> 00:28:59.160
the biggest story of all which other people will not believe.

468
00:28:59.319 --> 00:29:02.759
But my sister, sure, I can tell you one hundred percent,

469
00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:07.160
does not lie. She is a smoker. So she went

470
00:29:07.200 --> 00:29:10.279
out on her front porch and this happened.

471
00:29:10.000 --> 00:29:11.559
A year ago.

472
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:15.279
And I always wanted to see something. I always wanted

473
00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:17.960
to be there and see something, and I was not there.

474
00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:25.359
She went outside to smoke a cigarette, and a big

475
00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:29.279
foot at in the daytime, it was almost dark but

476
00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:35.839
not quite still daylight walked across her driveway into the woods,

477
00:29:36.039 --> 00:29:40.720
and she witnessed it. She threw her cigarette down, ran inside,

478
00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:44.400
screaming to her husband, and by the time they got out,

479
00:29:44.519 --> 00:29:49.000
all they could hear was the footsteps, heavy footsteps going

480
00:29:49.039 --> 00:29:49.680
in the woods.

481
00:29:49.799 --> 00:29:52.000
He didn't see it, but my sister did.

482
00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:58.200
And a couple of weeks later, a neighbor that lived

483
00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:00.480
down the road from them, and I'm talking a couple

484
00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:03.680
of miles down the road from them, was riding her

485
00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:09.119
bike on the paved road and said that one crossed

486
00:30:09.559 --> 00:30:12.359
right in front of her while she was riding her bicycle.

487
00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:17.119
So goodness, why is this western North Carolina?

488
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:27.319
We live very close to Virginia, So okay, wow, yeah, yeah,

489
00:30:27.839 --> 00:30:30.119
many many, just so many stories.

490
00:30:30.119 --> 00:30:30.559
But yeah.

491
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:34.079
She actually she did not take a picture because she

492
00:30:34.160 --> 00:30:36.759
did not have her phone. She just went outside on

493
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:42.839
the porch to smoke a cigarette, and she watched it

494
00:30:43.119 --> 00:30:46.440
very briefly, she, you know, because it did start it

495
00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:50.200
startled her. But she and I both are big foot

496
00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:54.960
enthusias enthusiast, you know, we're enthusiasts. We love boot you know.

497
00:30:55.880 --> 00:31:02.680
And the noises that that made, you can't even describe.

498
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:07.400
I mean, it was so loud and oh my gosh,

499
00:31:08.079 --> 00:31:10.759
I can't. I can't even describe what it sounds like.

500
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:14.480
I can't because it's nothing.

501
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:15.640
I've ever heard before.

502
00:31:16.599 --> 00:31:16.799
Now.

503
00:31:16.839 --> 00:31:19.759
The tree knocks, oh wow, heard a lot of those.

504
00:31:19.799 --> 00:31:25.119
And like I said, that feces was oh my gosh,

505
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:30.720
that mound was just enormous and that footprint was enormous.

506
00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:33.519
She's still got that picture. I've got the picture.

507
00:31:34.720 --> 00:31:37.880
I think I have it on my phone somewhere, But

508
00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:40.920
she's got it. She's got the footprints on her phone

509
00:31:41.160 --> 00:31:45.359
and she actually did finally get to see it. They

510
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:50.839
don't live there anymore, but the people that moved there

511
00:31:51.039 --> 00:31:55.000
said that they definitely needed needed to discuss this with

512
00:31:55.160 --> 00:32:00.839
her because there's been some things going on with them. Also, Oh,

513
00:32:00.880 --> 00:32:05.599
I did leave out one thing. This is pretty interesting too.

514
00:32:05.880 --> 00:32:10.000
Their front door. One day she went out and when

515
00:32:10.039 --> 00:32:13.680
she came back in the front door, the doorknob was

516
00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:17.960
completely ripped off the door and was in the middle

517
00:32:18.160 --> 00:32:23.839
of their yard the doorknobs. So but like I said,

518
00:32:23.880 --> 00:32:28.200
she finally did end up seeing it. Now I cannot

519
00:32:28.279 --> 00:32:31.079
pronounce it's gigana.

520
00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:32.920
What can do? You know what it is?

521
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:42.359
Yes, Okay, people should realize they're not extinct. That is

522
00:32:42.400 --> 00:32:47.680
what a bigfoot is. They are not extinct. That I mean,

523
00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:50.240
that's my theory. That's what I think that that's what

524
00:32:50.279 --> 00:32:53.799
it is. And they where people think they're they're that

525
00:32:53.880 --> 00:32:55.440
they're extinct, they're not.

526
00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:00.759
They're real. They are real. Yeah, you're not.

527
00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:03.440
The only one to have that. That theory. It's a

528
00:33:03.480 --> 00:33:08.839
really interesting one, especially since there are other prehistoric type

529
00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:12.960
animals that have been seen around the US at certain times. Right,

530
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:15.640
it's it's very weird if you start to look into it.

531
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:21.000
But if you're if she ever needs to talk to

532
00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:25.400
someone about what she's experiencing kind of you know, work

533
00:33:25.519 --> 00:33:31.240
through it. You can pass on my emails Bigfoot Society

534
00:33:31.240 --> 00:33:34.759
at gmail dot com. I can talk. I'd love to

535
00:33:34.759 --> 00:33:37.599
talk to her, but it's up to her. You know,

536
00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:40.000
sometimes you're in the middle of something like that and

537
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:41.480
you don't know how to handle it and you just

538
00:33:41.519 --> 00:33:43.240
need someone to talk to. It's not going to make

539
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:44.000
fun of you, you know.

540
00:33:44.759 --> 00:33:49.039
Right right, some people believe her, and then others don't.

541
00:33:49.160 --> 00:33:51.960
Now the lady to live down the road, and I'm

542
00:33:52.039 --> 00:33:53.880
talking about a couple of miles down the road that

543
00:33:53.960 --> 00:33:56.000
saw one walk in front of her while she was

544
00:33:56.079 --> 00:34:00.559
riding her bike on the the It was a road,

545
00:34:01.119 --> 00:34:07.559
you know, a road that cars travel on. Of course

546
00:34:07.599 --> 00:34:10.880
there are woods on both sides. She witnessed the same

547
00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:13.199
thing and she told my sister, she said, I saw

548
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:20.440
it too. So now my sister and I both we, oh, gosh,

549
00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:21.559
we love Bigfoot.

550
00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:24.000
I mean we always have.

551
00:34:24.280 --> 00:34:26.920
And she also has a story when she was little

552
00:34:27.440 --> 00:34:31.079
seeing well, she was probably about ten eleven or twelve,

553
00:34:31.760 --> 00:34:35.719
and her and her friend saw one years and years

554
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:40.039
and years ago. I always said I wanted to see one,

555
00:34:40.119 --> 00:34:45.119
but from a distance, from a distance, yeah, yeah, But

556
00:34:45.519 --> 00:34:46.480
what she scared?

557
00:34:47.039 --> 00:34:47.960
It startled.

558
00:34:48.159 --> 00:34:52.119
It startled her at the time. But she was never

559
00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:54.519
scared being there.

560
00:34:54.800 --> 00:34:57.800
She wasn't. She was never afraid.

561
00:34:58.320 --> 00:35:04.599
No, Now, the beating on the house, I'm not sure.

562
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:10.400
This is when they first moved in so like, and nobody.

563
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:11.079
Had ever lived back there.

564
00:35:11.159 --> 00:35:15.239
They had to clear the timber, clear the woods to

565
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:16.679
make a site for their home.

566
00:35:17.199 --> 00:35:18.000
You could see the.

567
00:35:17.920 --> 00:35:24.719
Mountains mountains behind them, and that was their territory. And

568
00:35:24.800 --> 00:35:27.000
they were I think they were checking the house out.

569
00:35:27.039 --> 00:35:30.159
They're like, hey, what is this? You know they were,

570
00:35:30.320 --> 00:35:32.000
I think they were checking the house out.

571
00:35:32.000 --> 00:35:35.599
They're like, hey, what is this? You know, who is this?

572
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:36.360
What is this?

573
00:35:36.800 --> 00:35:39.360
Yeah? Why are you here?

574
00:35:39.519 --> 00:35:41.000
Why are you in my territory?

575
00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:46.559
Because there was nobody living back there where they lived

576
00:35:46.719 --> 00:35:52.599
down there gravel driveway, which was horrible, horrible to get

577
00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:57.159
back there. It was horrible. Now their house was gorgeous

578
00:35:57.239 --> 00:36:00.719
back there, but the driving back there was, my gosh,

579
00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:03.159
it was horrendous to get back there.

580
00:36:04.960 --> 00:36:10.079
In the winter time, no way you could come. Yeah,

581
00:36:10.199 --> 00:36:13.440
even though my brother in law tried to gravel the road.

582
00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:15.000
It was rough.

583
00:36:15.079 --> 00:36:17.840
It was still rough getting back there. You needed a

584
00:36:17.880 --> 00:36:23.440
four wheel drive. So but that's that's my story.

585
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:27.519
But yeah, man, Crystal, that's that's some wild stuff. Thank

586
00:36:27.559 --> 00:36:30.400
you for sharing what you guys have got going on

587
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:31.079
over there.

588
00:36:31.679 --> 00:36:35.000
You are so welcome. I I one hundred percent believe

589
00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:35.559
I really do.

590
00:36:35.760 --> 00:36:40.280
Like I said, I cannot pronounce the giganta pithecus.

591
00:36:40.360 --> 00:36:40.880
Is that right?

592
00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:44.280
You got it? You got it close enough, close enough.

593
00:36:44.760 --> 00:36:48.079
That's really they're just not extinct.

594
00:36:48.559 --> 00:36:48.880
They're not.

595
00:36:49.760 --> 00:36:54.639
And you know people that winness things like the lockness

596
00:36:54.760 --> 00:37:00.719
or whatever I think those are. They're not extinct where

597
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:02.679
people thought they were, they're not.

598
00:37:03.159 --> 00:37:06.400
They're still around. Yeah, it's a.

599
00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:09.239
It's an interesting theory for sure, but you know, yeah,

600
00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:12.800
keep us in the loop in the future. And thank

601
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:13.960
you for coming up, Crystal.

602
00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:15.679
Oh, thank you so much.

603
00:37:16.280 --> 00:37:22.159
Yes, ma'am, Hey Dove, this is Jeremiah. Thanks for coming up.

604
00:37:23.400 --> 00:37:24.440
Hey, buddy, how you doing to not?

605
00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:27.679
Hey doing good sir? Feel free to share what you've

606
00:37:28.360 --> 00:37:29.239
experienced there.

607
00:37:30.320 --> 00:37:33.159
I've actually been wanting to do this one for a while.

608
00:37:33.360 --> 00:37:36.280
Everyone I tell or talk to they always tell me

609
00:37:36.280 --> 00:37:38.960
the same thing, and you should really like write about it.

610
00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:44.000
I was with a group of friends and we went

611
00:37:44.079 --> 00:37:48.920
up to Combing, Alabama or pretty much to like visit

612
00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:54.840
some of their family. And we got up there, Yes,

613
00:37:54.920 --> 00:37:57.519
it was like an evening time. Everybody was pretty much

614
00:37:57.960 --> 00:38:03.199
wanting to go out in h like do things or whatever.

615
00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:05.079
And I kind of mentioned the question of like what

616
00:38:05.079 --> 00:38:06.920
do y'all do like far as like going out in

617
00:38:06.920 --> 00:38:08.360
the woods and stuff. They were like, Oh, we do

618
00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:11.880
bigfoot adventures up or like sightings and stuff like that

619
00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:13.480
up here, and I was like, well, that's pretty cool.

620
00:38:13.519 --> 00:38:16.679
So we end up going down for about an hour

621
00:38:16.800 --> 00:38:20.280
half hour and a half drive into like this like

622
00:38:20.440 --> 00:38:28.320
really forestry area up there, and about twenty minutes of

623
00:38:28.639 --> 00:38:31.119
when we first got there to like the location you

624
00:38:31.159 --> 00:38:33.840
had to walk down into like it's like I guess

625
00:38:33.920 --> 00:38:36.519
what people call like a holler. And when I got

626
00:38:36.519 --> 00:38:40.519
into the and there was like an open field, and

627
00:38:40.639 --> 00:38:43.159
me being me, I kind of venture away from everybody.

628
00:38:43.719 --> 00:38:45.920
There's about four of us and my nine year old

629
00:38:45.960 --> 00:38:49.719
son at the time too, so I'm about fifty yards

630
00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:53.440
away from everybody. And one of the girls who got

631
00:38:53.519 --> 00:38:56.239
us all to go do this bigfoot thing with her

632
00:38:57.320 --> 00:39:00.639
dude sholl out this like ridiculous scream. I even kind

633
00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:02.800
of like turned around and kind of like chuckled back,

634
00:39:02.920 --> 00:39:06.519
like why would you scream like that? And it was

635
00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:11.159
no longer like twenty seconds later, from about two hundred

636
00:39:11.199 --> 00:39:13.800
yards to my left, you can hear something screaming back

637
00:39:13.840 --> 00:39:17.400
at me into the woods. Now I'm from Florida. Usually

638
00:39:17.400 --> 00:39:20.599
we're just used to like you know, panthers or alligators

639
00:39:20.639 --> 00:39:23.119
or whatever. We're not used to like what I just

640
00:39:23.199 --> 00:39:29.039
heard project right back at me. So at this point

641
00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:31.239
it got my attention. So I started making my way

642
00:39:31.280 --> 00:39:33.599
back towards them, not really in a hurry, but just

643
00:39:33.639 --> 00:39:36.880
kind of like walking across the field, you know, just

644
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:39.760
trying to get back to them, and I'm kind of

645
00:39:39.840 --> 00:39:42.039
yelling back at her, like what are you doing? And

646
00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:44.840
about this time I hear it like coming off in

647
00:39:44.880 --> 00:39:47.960
a distance from a second It was more like two

648
00:39:48.039 --> 00:39:51.199
of them mountain the woods with us. And when I

649
00:39:51.239 --> 00:39:53.800
heard the second one, I went from like just a

650
00:39:53.880 --> 00:39:56.480
normal walk to like a quicker jog, like okay, because

651
00:39:56.480 --> 00:40:00.480
it sounded like it was getting closer to us. When

652
00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:05.360
I get back to the group, I was you know,

653
00:40:05.480 --> 00:40:07.400
She's like, did you hear it? Did you hear it?

654
00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:09.400
I was like absolutely, what do you like, What is

655
00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:11.400
that like? It sounds like a scream. She goes, yeah,

656
00:40:11.400 --> 00:40:15.320
they're calling back. So my son, he starts getting more

657
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:17.480
freaked out about this because, like I said, we're not

658
00:40:17.639 --> 00:40:22.400
used to this kind of activity. So as we're getting

659
00:40:22.440 --> 00:40:25.960
back together, everybody's back in a circle with us, and

660
00:40:26.239 --> 00:40:28.719
we're going to work or or make our way back

661
00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:30.880
up to the top of the hill to where my

662
00:40:30.920 --> 00:40:34.239
truck's at. Well, as we're making this walk back towards

663
00:40:34.239 --> 00:40:37.840
the truck, it literally sounds like it's it's also getting

664
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:43.519
close towards dark. It's not really bright out just anymore.

665
00:40:43.559 --> 00:40:47.199
It's more like dim getting dark. So as we're getting

666
00:40:47.239 --> 00:40:49.599
back onto this trail, going back up the hill towards

667
00:40:49.599 --> 00:40:51.920
the truck, you can hear it just coming up behind

668
00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:54.199
you in the woods, screaming. Dude, it sounds like this,

669
00:40:55.239 --> 00:40:58.760
not like a not like a a panther, not like

670
00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:03.800
a bobcat. It's it's more of like this heroine scream man,

671
00:41:05.199 --> 00:41:09.199
very deep, very loud. And my son he turns around,

672
00:41:09.199 --> 00:41:11.639
he's like, Dad, it's standing right there. And dude, it

673
00:41:11.719 --> 00:41:14.639
was probably within fifty yards from us, standing in the

674
00:41:14.639 --> 00:41:18.400
middle of the trail, screaming at us. Alabama's an open

675
00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:21.320
carry state, so it was very glad to hear that

676
00:41:21.400 --> 00:41:25.199
because it made me pull from my hip and put

677
00:41:25.199 --> 00:41:27.400
my son up on my shoulder and carry him the

678
00:41:27.440 --> 00:41:30.679
rest away with my pistol drawn the whole way, screaming

679
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:32.280
at these people, like we got to get back to

680
00:41:32.320 --> 00:41:34.000
the truck, man. These things were like coming out of

681
00:41:34.000 --> 00:41:34.559
the woods on.

682
00:41:34.519 --> 00:41:35.079
Top of us.

683
00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:39.800
And as we got back to our truck, I put

684
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:41.920
my son back in the seat, slamming the door, jumping

685
00:41:41.960 --> 00:41:44.639
my seat. As I'm backing up. You can just hear

686
00:41:44.679 --> 00:41:47.280
it screaming in the woods again behind us as we're

687
00:41:47.360 --> 00:41:51.159
leaving out. And ever since that moment, dude, I am

688
00:41:51.199 --> 00:41:55.760
one and ten percent a firm believer in Bigfoot.

689
00:41:56.119 --> 00:41:59.159
Oh my goodness, that is absolutely wild.

690
00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:00.239
Uh.

691
00:42:00.280 --> 00:42:03.079
I mean, this is me telling the story just like

692
00:42:03.920 --> 00:42:07.000
as I clearly remember it, brother, and it's it's the

693
00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:10.880
most intense moment of my life as a thirty year

694
00:42:10.920 --> 00:42:13.840
old man, a thirty eight year old man to be

695
00:42:13.920 --> 00:42:15.880
able to I mean, the only thing I can think

696
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:17.519
it was just to grab my son up, put him

697
00:42:17.599 --> 00:42:19.840
up on my shoulder and like hurry up this freaking

698
00:42:19.880 --> 00:42:23.440
heel to my truck with everybody. I'm hoping everybody's catching

699
00:42:23.519 --> 00:42:25.559
up with me because I'm in a hurry to get

700
00:42:25.559 --> 00:42:28.719
off this get off this freaking mountain. And that happened

701
00:42:28.760 --> 00:42:33.679
in Coleman, Alabama. Dude, that it blew my mind.

702
00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:38.440
I definitely have a few questions for you. There's a

703
00:42:38.519 --> 00:42:43.320
good one from the chat. When you were hearing that screaming,

704
00:42:44.079 --> 00:42:46.960
Did it expect you in any way, like did it

705
00:42:48.119 --> 00:42:52.039
like shake your ribs or your chest or anything.

706
00:42:53.159 --> 00:42:55.800
No, definitely not that it.

707
00:42:57.199 --> 00:42:57.400
Man.

708
00:42:57.679 --> 00:43:01.000
I'm telling I've never heard that type scream before. And

709
00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:04.599
I've heard, you know, you know, Bobcats scream. I've heard

710
00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:08.119
other pats or whatever. Its just something else other, but

711
00:43:08.239 --> 00:43:14.360
nothing that deep, that girthy like scream. I've went on

712
00:43:14.480 --> 00:43:18.239
even with my fiance, I even went on line trying

713
00:43:18.280 --> 00:43:21.039
to find videos and I've actually came across some before

714
00:43:21.440 --> 00:43:24.800
that sounded just like it. And I'm let's look at

715
00:43:24.800 --> 00:43:26.639
her and like the hair would raise up, and I'm like, baby,

716
00:43:26.719 --> 00:43:31.519
that's it. That's that's exactly what I've heard, and it's

717
00:43:31.599 --> 00:43:33.880
it's it's as a real moment, it's really real.

718
00:43:35.320 --> 00:43:39.000
Did you show you you definitely heard it? Did you

719
00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:42.039
did you actually see it? Though as well.

720
00:43:43.400 --> 00:43:45.679
Yes, when I turned around, it was about fifty yards

721
00:43:45.679 --> 00:43:47.920
from us. You can see it standing in the center

722
00:43:47.960 --> 00:43:53.079
of the trail. It's definitely ever I would say, around

723
00:43:53.119 --> 00:44:00.920
seven foot tall, absolutely one ercent.

724
00:44:00.679 --> 00:44:02.719
In the middle of the trail. Do you remember any

725
00:44:02.760 --> 00:44:04.840
details about what you saw.

726
00:44:08.280 --> 00:44:10.599
From standing from my I mean I had the most

727
00:44:10.679 --> 00:44:13.840
clearest vision because I was kind of like, I don't

728
00:44:13.840 --> 00:44:16.559
know necessarily can say if I was in front of everybody,

729
00:44:16.599 --> 00:44:19.239
but when I look back, I didn't see nobody else standing,

730
00:44:19.280 --> 00:44:21.960
So I had the perfect eye vision of this, of

731
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:25.760
this bigfoot man. And I would say he was more

732
00:44:26.559 --> 00:44:31.079
darkish figured, probably about seven foot tall and looked to

733
00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:34.199
him somewhere around five hundred pounds, like a like a

734
00:44:34.920 --> 00:44:41.840
just a really big tall person, hands down man. Not

735
00:44:41.960 --> 00:44:46.440
necessarily like covered in fur like everybody, it would say,

736
00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:50.760
but more like like a coat in a sense, like

737
00:44:51.400 --> 00:44:54.400
it looked natural, you know, like he was it was

738
00:44:54.440 --> 00:44:58.880
meant for him to have that style, you know what

739
00:44:58.920 --> 00:44:59.239
I mean?

740
00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:00.280
Yeah?

741
00:45:00.280 --> 00:45:04.920
No, absolutely, Uh at that distance, were you able to

742
00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:08.920
notice any features of the face or was it too

743
00:45:08.960 --> 00:45:09.960
far away to see those?

744
00:45:10.880 --> 00:45:13.480
Definitely not features of the face, because like by that time,

745
00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:17.119
like I said, it was getting closer to the evening time.

746
00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:21.280
So standing from that distance, I couldn't make out if

747
00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:23.920
you know, like color of eye or anything like that,

748
00:45:24.039 --> 00:45:26.880
but definitely can say highth weight.

749
00:45:29.559 --> 00:45:30.159
Wow.

750
00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:31.719
I mean I swear to.

751
00:45:33.320 --> 00:45:35.440
Absolutely our little boy was.

752
00:45:35.440 --> 00:45:35.920
Here right now.

753
00:45:36.000 --> 00:45:37.800
He would tell everybody. I would just put the phone

754
00:45:37.800 --> 00:45:39.320
down and be like, Chase tell him. I won't even

755
00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:44.280
say right right, oh yeah?

756
00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:48.960
Could you see uh, anything to do with its arms

757
00:45:49.000 --> 00:45:50.760
at all? Like how long they were.

758
00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:56.760
When he when he yelled at us, it was like

759
00:45:56.760 --> 00:45:58.960
like as like if you were getting ready to curl,

760
00:45:59.199 --> 00:46:01.960
you kind of put your arms up midways to like lift.

761
00:46:02.480 --> 00:46:05.320
So when he belted, it was he like belted his

762
00:46:05.360 --> 00:46:10.079
screen like that, and it was it literally and I

763
00:46:10.119 --> 00:46:11.719
don't want to say stuff like that online, but it

764
00:46:11.800 --> 00:46:15.519
literally made me unholster myself. And I knew that at

765
00:46:15.519 --> 00:46:18.079
that point, like everybody around me is going to get

766
00:46:18.079 --> 00:46:22.800
out of here safe, man, Like that's the rule of

767
00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:23.239
a moment.

768
00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:25.800
Uh?

769
00:46:25.880 --> 00:46:26.280
Was this?

770
00:46:28.760 --> 00:46:32.800
I want to get so you it was like a

771
00:46:32.840 --> 00:46:34.920
wildlife management area? Do you think this was?

772
00:46:35.079 --> 00:46:35.199
Uh?

773
00:46:35.559 --> 00:46:38.800
I mean Bankhead National Forest is really active and that's

774
00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:42.960
kind of in the same area you were.

775
00:46:43.360 --> 00:46:48.199
It was a national forest up there. Yeah, yeah, listen,

776
00:46:48.280 --> 00:46:52.679
I know you had to cross an old wooden style bridge.

777
00:46:53.159 --> 00:46:55.039
It was like I wouldn't want to take my truck

778
00:46:55.079 --> 00:46:58.320
acrossed it, but it was made like it was like

779
00:46:58.480 --> 00:47:00.559
I wouldn't want to take my truck across, but it

780
00:47:00.599 --> 00:47:03.800
was made like those old wooden style bridges were one

781
00:47:03.840 --> 00:47:08.119
car passes. And I remember crossing through that bridge going

782
00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:10.400
to the other side, and that's where it led us

783
00:47:10.400 --> 00:47:14.679
down into this trail, into this valley. And we were

784
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:17.960
down there for at least twenty minutes before the first

785
00:47:18.000 --> 00:47:23.039
screen came out. And man, it put the hair right

786
00:47:23.079 --> 00:47:25.079
on the back of my neck like out of a movie.

787
00:47:27.880 --> 00:47:29.440
I mean, the more I sit here and talk to

788
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:31.639
you about it, man, it's just like I can see

789
00:47:31.679 --> 00:47:36.639
her and relive it, and absolutely it's almost like a

790
00:47:36.679 --> 00:47:39.559
PTSD event, you know, you just go back to because

791
00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:41.559
when you camp out in the woods, you're always listening

792
00:47:41.639 --> 00:47:44.400
for everything around you. Bears, I mean down here in Florida,

793
00:47:44.480 --> 00:47:48.320
we got black Bear, we got Florida panther gat everything,

794
00:47:48.480 --> 00:47:53.280
so you're pretty much used to certain things, but that

795
00:47:55.239 --> 00:47:57.559
never not one time. I've always heard about the skunk

796
00:47:57.599 --> 00:48:01.000
ape down here, and I always been with everything else

797
00:48:01.079 --> 00:48:03.519
you know, even with UFOs, we just you know, we

798
00:48:03.559 --> 00:48:06.280
don't know until we see it ourselves. Well, I've always

799
00:48:06.280 --> 00:48:08.440
been that guy. I don't know until I see it.

800
00:48:10.000 --> 00:48:16.280
I seem absolutely who well, Dove, thank you for coming

801
00:48:16.360 --> 00:48:19.639
up and for sharing what you experienced in Alabama that night.

802
00:48:19.679 --> 00:48:20.639
I appreciate it.

803
00:48:21.039 --> 00:48:23.360
Absolutely and I'll follow you, man. I really appreciate this.

804
00:48:23.519 --> 00:48:24.320
Thank you.

805
00:48:24.320 --> 00:48:27.079
You got it. Have a great night there too, Thank you.

806
00:48:28.679 --> 00:48:31.960
Hee we got is it? Shara?

807
00:48:33.000 --> 00:48:33.320
Shira?

808
00:48:34.280 --> 00:48:37.039
Shira? All right, thanks for coming up, Shira. What's going on?

809
00:48:37.639 --> 00:48:41.360
Okay? So I was I'm in the Appalachian mountains.

810
00:48:41.639 --> 00:48:43.920
All right, hey you're there.

811
00:48:43.920 --> 00:48:51.320
I'm crazy, No, no, ma'am. So out here we heard

812
00:48:51.440 --> 00:48:54.159
something next to my house, like out in the woods,

813
00:48:55.039 --> 00:48:58.559
and it was running too fast to be a bear,

814
00:48:59.400 --> 00:49:02.239
meaning like it was like you could hear it high up,

815
00:49:02.800 --> 00:49:08.679
like it was hitting the branches and you can hear

816
00:49:08.719 --> 00:49:12.679
it like the yelps or something like you could hear

817
00:49:13.039 --> 00:49:14.159
it was not a bear.

818
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:15.159
It was not a bear.

819
00:49:15.719 --> 00:49:19.800
It wasn't a cat, mean then like mountain cat, any

820
00:49:19.920 --> 00:49:26.239
kind of panther. It was crazy. Like I woke up

821
00:49:26.320 --> 00:49:29.400
my parents like, hey, come listening to this. Mom came

822
00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:32.159
out and she was like, I've never heard this before either.

823
00:49:33.159 --> 00:49:38.679
It was not man made for sure. You could hear

824
00:49:38.719 --> 00:49:42.239
it just running through the woods, and it was hitting branches,

825
00:49:43.000 --> 00:49:50.639
so nothing that high up besides a bigfoot could hit branches, right.

826
00:49:51.400 --> 00:49:54.840
I know'ally logically that makes sense. Are there a lot

827
00:49:54.880 --> 00:49:56.480
of reports in that area?

828
00:49:58.280 --> 00:49:58.800
Yeah?

829
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:03.119
I have la well right, I mean, but Appalachia is

830
00:50:03.559 --> 00:50:08.719
a pretty big region. Are you able to share any

831
00:50:08.760 --> 00:50:12.880
more specifics about the area or just if you need

832
00:50:12.920 --> 00:50:16.639
to leave it vague, that's no problem.

833
00:50:17.199 --> 00:50:20.920
About forty minutes west of Ashville.

834
00:50:21.760 --> 00:50:27.119
Oh yeah, yeah, okay, that's that's the area.

835
00:50:27.239 --> 00:50:30.880
Yeah, yeah, it was big.

836
00:50:31.000 --> 00:50:34.840
There's nothing that you could hear the branches as it

837
00:50:34.880 --> 00:50:38.880
was running, and you could hear the It was not

838
00:50:39.000 --> 00:50:44.960
a bear. We know bears, obviously, we know bears, and

839
00:50:45.039 --> 00:50:48.960
I've seen mountain lions and I've seen like, there's nothing

840
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:50.800
that that.

841
00:50:50.880 --> 00:50:52.320
Was totally.

842
00:50:54.000 --> 00:50:57.480
And people think I'm crazy it was a big foot.

843
00:50:58.559 --> 00:51:01.440
Did you go out and see if there are any tracks?

844
00:51:01.480 --> 00:51:04.239
The next day, I did go out.

845
00:51:04.320 --> 00:51:08.920
I did go out. That's I couldn't tail because it's

846
00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:14.599
like a mudpit over there, but I tried. I wanted

847
00:51:14.639 --> 00:51:20.079
to see because I do believe in Bigfoot. But I

848
00:51:20.239 --> 00:51:24.880
just don't understand what we heard that night. It was crazy.

849
00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:26.719
I've never heard that before.

850
00:51:29.840 --> 00:51:32.360
Is that the only weird thing that's happened around your house?

851
00:51:35.400 --> 00:51:35.760
Yeah?

852
00:51:36.079 --> 00:51:37.079
Actually yeah?

853
00:51:38.360 --> 00:51:38.679
Cool?

854
00:51:40.719 --> 00:51:44.400
I know, don't really help your study, No.

855
00:51:44.239 --> 00:51:50.000
I mean it, if anything, it adds to the list that. Yeah,

856
00:51:50.800 --> 00:51:54.559
west of Asheville, there's weird stuff that happens, so it

857
00:51:54.679 --> 00:51:57.119
definitely does help. Yeah, thank you for sharing that.

858
00:51:57.840 --> 00:52:00.599
Yeah, no problem, it was I wish she was here

859
00:52:00.679 --> 00:52:04.119
because it was amazing and scary all the same.

860
00:52:04.199 --> 00:52:04.360
Guy.

861
00:52:05.800 --> 00:52:08.639
Absolutely, we'll keep us in mind if anything else happens

862
00:52:08.679 --> 00:52:12.880
out in your area. Yeah, totally all right, thank you

863
00:52:12.920 --> 00:52:13.519
for coming up.

864
00:52:14.280 --> 00:52:15.360
Yeah, no problem.

865
00:52:21.719 --> 00:52:23.480
All right, we got a few more people wanting to

866
00:52:23.480 --> 00:52:25.039
come up here. Hey, what's up, bro?

867
00:52:25.079 --> 00:52:25.599
How you doing?

868
00:52:26.119 --> 00:52:28.679
Hey, hey, thanks for coming up. Yeah I saw that

869
00:52:28.760 --> 00:52:31.599
you are. Was it from Monroe, Washington?

870
00:52:32.079 --> 00:52:32.320
Yeah?

871
00:52:32.320 --> 00:52:35.000
Where it happened. That was in Monroe, Washington. It's like

872
00:52:35.119 --> 00:52:37.920
near a like what do you call it? Like dirt

873
00:52:37.920 --> 00:52:41.400
bike trail and everything like that. All right, anyways, this

874
00:52:41.480 --> 00:52:43.239
was in like twenty ten, right. You know, I'm with

875
00:52:43.280 --> 00:52:47.280
my buddies, completely sober, right, I'm sitting by a bonfire,

876
00:52:47.400 --> 00:52:49.719
you know, just just chilling. We're waiting waiting for some

877
00:52:49.880 --> 00:52:54.719
UFC fight to start, and I man, it was bone chilling.

878
00:52:54.760 --> 00:52:54.920
Man.

879
00:52:55.000 --> 00:52:55.920
I hear this like.

880
00:52:57.519 --> 00:53:00.360
Kind of like like an owl, but on steroids, right,

881
00:53:02.119 --> 00:53:04.679
and it hooed back at me. At least it was

882
00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:06.880
like a howl. It did it back at least three times.

883
00:53:06.920 --> 00:53:12.280
I started mimicting, mimicating it back. Right then after we started,

884
00:53:12.320 --> 00:53:15.639
you know, hooing at each other, I guess I start hearing.

885
00:53:15.400 --> 00:53:17.559
This bang bang bang bang.

886
00:53:18.679 --> 00:53:22.880
And from what I understand is, you know sasquatches bigfoots,

887
00:53:22.880 --> 00:53:25.679
when they feel threatened or there's someone's in their territory,

888
00:53:26.480 --> 00:53:29.119
they'll rip limbs off of trees and they'll bang on

889
00:53:29.159 --> 00:53:31.039
other trees as a way to mark their territory.

890
00:53:31.519 --> 00:53:33.440
And I think that's exactly what was happening.

891
00:53:36.119 --> 00:53:36.719
That's wild.

892
00:53:36.840 --> 00:53:41.039
And is this area known for sasquatch activity.

893
00:53:41.679 --> 00:53:44.519
I mean, I mean it's the Pacific Northwest, you know,

894
00:53:44.519 --> 00:53:46.760
it's washing sure, sure, yeah.

895
00:53:47.159 --> 00:53:47.559
Yeah.

896
00:53:48.559 --> 00:53:50.519
And then the natives, you know, they believe, you know,

897
00:53:50.599 --> 00:53:53.480
it's like a spiritual thing and like it's a spiritual being.

898
00:53:53.639 --> 00:53:55.920
So you never know, but you know, I believe in

899
00:53:55.960 --> 00:53:58.079
you know, skun gapes and stuff like that, you know,

900
00:53:58.239 --> 00:53:59.159
you never know what's out there.

901
00:53:59.199 --> 00:53:59.960
I mean, Florida's there.

902
00:54:00.159 --> 00:54:01.320
There's a lot of sightings.

903
00:54:03.000 --> 00:54:04.840
I mean, where are you guys located at before I

904
00:54:05.199 --> 00:54:07.000
you know, let you go and you can let someone

905
00:54:07.000 --> 00:54:07.400
else up.

906
00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:07.840
Where you guys.

907
00:54:09.119 --> 00:54:12.719
So I'm out of central Iowa, but I do like this.

908
00:54:12.719 --> 00:54:15.480
This last summer I did make it out to a

909
00:54:15.800 --> 00:54:19.760
central Oregon and hopefully I hope to make it up

910
00:54:19.760 --> 00:54:21.199
to Washington eventually.

911
00:54:21.920 --> 00:54:22.119
Yeah.

912
00:54:22.159 --> 00:54:24.559
Good time they put Capital of the World. Man, You'll

913
00:54:24.599 --> 00:54:25.079
you'll love it.

914
00:54:26.159 --> 00:54:26.679
You'll love it.

915
00:54:26.719 --> 00:54:28.519
And then you know, if you like you know, if.

916
00:54:28.360 --> 00:54:30.280
You like fish, and you can fish or salmon out

917
00:54:30.280 --> 00:54:31.559
there too, which is pretty nice.

918
00:54:31.960 --> 00:54:34.159
Hey, there you go. Good stuff, good stuff. Well, thank

919
00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:36.519
you for coming up, man, for sharing what happened out

920
00:54:36.519 --> 00:54:41.519
there in Monroe. Yeah, anytime you guys have a good one, Yes, sir, yep. Bye.

921
00:54:42.639 --> 00:54:44.960
Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something

922
00:54:45.000 --> 00:54:48.199
directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're

923
00:54:48.239 --> 00:54:52.000
in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've

924
00:54:52.000 --> 00:54:54.880
seen something that no one can explain, or if you're

925
00:54:54.880 --> 00:54:58.159
a National park ranger of forestry worker who's been told

926
00:54:58.199 --> 00:55:02.840
to stay quiet, a pilot who's seen something strange down

927
00:55:02.880 --> 00:55:05.440
on the ground, or if you're with the FBI a

928
00:55:05.480 --> 00:55:09.400
federal agency, or working intelligence and you stumbled upon something

929
00:55:09.440 --> 00:55:13.079
you're not allowed to talk about. And if you're a firefighter, paramedic,

930
00:55:13.239 --> 00:55:16.519
or search and rescue responder who's heard screams or found

931
00:55:16.559 --> 00:55:19.519
tracks that didn't make sense. If you're in the logging

932
00:55:19.559 --> 00:55:23.400
industry on a remote oil field or a trucker with

933
00:55:23.519 --> 00:55:27.360
government contracts and you've had something happen that you've never

934
00:55:27.400 --> 00:55:31.320
told a soul. And if you're a biologist, a wildlife specialist,

935
00:55:31.480 --> 00:55:34.880
or a field researcher under contract who has found evidence

936
00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:38.639
you're not allowed to report. If you're a pastor, a missionary,

937
00:55:38.760 --> 00:55:41.920
or someone on a spiritual retreat and you saw something

938
00:55:41.960 --> 00:55:44.400
that shook your faith, or if you work in the

939
00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:48.960
shadows CIA, NSA or anything with clearance and you've seen

940
00:55:49.119 --> 00:55:52.760
what the public hasn't, then I want to talk to you,

941
00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:58.639
even if it's anonymous. You can reach me at Bigfoot

942
