00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.839
You're listening to Big for Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron.

2
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:05.639
In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to

3
00:00:05.679 --> 00:00:08.400
bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've

4
00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:12.759
seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers

5
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:16.719
to 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 --> 00:00:23.960
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 --> 00:00:32.520
So stay with us, all right, Big for Society. You've

11
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:35.240
got the privilege of talking to Greg from the Cryptozoology

12
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:38.039
YouTube channel today and that's with a k at the beginning.

13
00:00:38.280 --> 00:00:40.119
We'll have that linked in the show notes for sure.

14
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:44.119
Greg is a documentary filmmaker from Pennsylvania. He's got a

15
00:00:44.159 --> 00:00:48.399
degree in Electronic media and film and he's also a

16
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:51.000
member of the Screen Actors Guild, which is pretty cool,

17
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:56.399
and he's been documenting his Bigfoot related experiences all around

18
00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:58.880
the mid Atlantic region. I've been wanting to have Greg

19
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:01.200
on the show for a while. We're finally able to

20
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:02.000
get him on the show.

21
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:02.320
Today.

22
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:03.600
So how are you doing today, Greg?

23
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:06.400
Oh great, Jeremy, I thank you so much for having

24
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:11.840
me on. Absolutely, yeah, I guess I guess I'll just

25
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:14.439
start in a West Virginia. That's kind of where actually

26
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:17.920
I had my first experience, uh a number of years ago.

27
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:21.120
And this is actually before I was really even into

28
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:24.959
cryptozoology or anything of the like. And I was actually

29
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.319
I was visiting a friend out in like I said,

30
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:31.599
like the eastern panhandle of West Virginia, and so I

31
00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:35.480
was coming back and this deer cut cut in front

32
00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:38.319
of me, and it was really bizarre just because like

33
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:40.760
I've driven you know, you know, thousands of miles of

34
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:43.400
back roads and never never really had too many you

35
00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:46.560
know deer, you know, wild turkey kind of cut out

36
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:50.040
in front of me, and you know the so the

37
00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:54.840
deer crosses the road and then uh, there's there's a

38
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:58.640
predator following it and it had it looked like it

39
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:03.239
was like a dog like like just like almost looked

40
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:06.280
like a wild dog. And so I really kind of

41
00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:10.840
you know, looked into this subject and it's I know,

42
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:14.919
it's kind of crazy, but there's actually been hyena sightings

43
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:20.000
like in North America, and I I kind of I

44
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:24.159
looked into this and there's there's actually like Hyaena sightings

45
00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:27.800
in like West Virginia a lot, and it because it

46
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:30.599
didn't really fit into that category of being a dog

47
00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:34.199
or like a coyote or a wolf, and it just

48
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:38.159
had these like large, like large haunches and it looked

49
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:42.120
at me and then just continued to pursue the deer.

50
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.240
And I had always had, like, you know, some interest

51
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:49.759
in you know the macabre, you know, with like Arthur C.

52
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:52.319
Clark's and a serious world and so on, you know,

53
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:54.319
watching that back in the nineties when I was a kid,

54
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:57.919
and to really to have something like so weird like

55
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:00.639
dash out in front of me, it really kind of

56
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:04.400
changed my whole like paradigm for you know, what what's

57
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:07.759
possible and what can exist. And so I did like

58
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:09.759
a little bit of research. And I'm not sure if

59
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:13.919
you're familiar with it. It's called the shunka wall rackn Yes,

60
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:18.759
in yes, yeah, yeah, that's in like I believe Montana,

61
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:21.639
like out towards you know, more like the Pacific Northwest,

62
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:24.360
and you know, it was it was known as like

63
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:28.159
a predator that carried carried off dogs like that was

64
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:32.560
kind of the nickname for it, and having having seen

65
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:36.039
this thing really kind of you know, blew my mind

66
00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:39.039
like that, like what, you know, what is what is

67
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:42.000
happening out here? This This was like maybe like two

68
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:45.680
thousand and eight, and so I really didn't have like

69
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:49.840
that developed of an interest in cryptozoology. And it wasn't

70
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:52.360
really untill like almost like the twenty tens with like

71
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:56.039
you know, finding Bigfoot and like things like that and

72
00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:59.360
kind of Sasquatch you know, chronicles like you know, kind

73
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:01.400
of blowing up. I was like, oh, okay, this is

74
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:05.639
subject is like kind of kind of interesting. And so

75
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.080
I had my I actually had some experiences in Maryland.

76
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:12.840
I actually I used to live in Maryland for moving

77
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:17.720
back to PA. And so there's the in Maryland, there's

78
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:20.759
the goat Man. That's the that's kind of like you know,

79
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:23.680
I lived like near like you know, kind of southern

80
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:27.680
near Napolis, Maryland, and that's like a really really famous

81
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:32.839
you know area for you know, sightings of the goat man.

82
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:35.920
And you know, really I looked into the whole area

83
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:39.000
and actually the whole that Governor's Bridge Road right now

84
00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:42.439
is actually shut down and it's been like repeatedly shut

85
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:46.040
down and you know, first time, I believe it was

86
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:49.160
like the bridge actually just got washed out. But the

87
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.560
second time, like a like a tractor trailer like was

88
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:54.920
trying to get through there, like they rebuilt the bridge

89
00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:57.720
and everything and so and it's still been shut down

90
00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:00.319
so like all along there for like the past ten

91
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:03.519
or fifteen years, you know, where where Goatman is like

92
00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:06.920
reportedly like the sightings, it's all been shut down for

93
00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:11.839
like almost like two decades, which is like super crazy.

94
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:15.560
And so I I have a friend and so she

95
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:18.800
actually kind of like lives over in that area, and

96
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:22.920
she so we were like camp kind of camping outside

97
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:27.040
that type of thing, and like it was it just

98
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:29.879
it's it started to rain right like it So it

99
00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:34.759
was like a normal, normal night and then like out

100
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:40.279
of nowhere, this like large like sigh like came came

101
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:43.360
from the woods. Like you know, it just it was

102
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:45.600
like someone like a like a giant like almost like

103
00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:48.319
a like a like a bear or something. But there's

104
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:52.600
absolutely there's no bears that are in like in this

105
00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:56.439
area in like southern Maryland, like they've been like extirpated

106
00:05:56.519 --> 00:06:00.759
for like decades, and and so so like you know,

107
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:04.680
I talked around to her neighbors, and yeah, the neighbors

108
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:08.279
said that you know, they uh they saw like red

109
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:12.240
eyes at eight eight feet in the in the area,

110
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:17.439
and like also that a neighbor said that, you know,

111
00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:20.800
they there was a goose that actually got caught in

112
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:25.240
her fence and she heard these like large footsteps like

113
00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:30.600
like bound across the area and and it grabbed that

114
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:34.000
that goose that was like stuck in the fence. And

115
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:37.120
another another person she reported that there was you know,

116
00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:39.680
she felt like she was being like there's there's like

117
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:43.120
fishing spots down there, and and she felt like there

118
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:46.279
was she was being followed, and she had this really

119
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.879
creepy feeling like it was a real, real, real bizarre

120
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:53.879
experience for her. And so that in terms of that area,

121
00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:56.959
you know, I feel like a lot of people are

122
00:06:57.040 --> 00:07:00.240
kind of like mislabeling you know, goat man and and

123
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:02.800
I feel like, you know, like that's that's like a

124
00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:05.360
common occurrence, you know, in terms of like the same

125
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:08.959
you know, the Jersey Devil and things like that, like

126
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:14.079
people just put like a different name like a local

127
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:18.600
colloquialism for uh, you know, for Bigfoot. And I think

128
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:21.480
in Maryland, like you know, Bigfoot can really just be

129
00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:26.680
called like goat man. So I guess to keep keep

130
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:30.040
on moving on, you know, with with my experiences in Maryland.

131
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:34.759
There's there's a really amazing park it's called Calvert Cliffs

132
00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:40.079
and that's that's that. That's more. That's more in southern

133
00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:43.399
Maryland also, and my daughter and I were actually we

134
00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:46.120
would visit there. This you know, this this is still

135
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:49.079
kind of like before you know, I was really doing

136
00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:52.079
anything with like you know, cryptozoology or anything of the like.

137
00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:56.639
And you know, we were walking like through the park

138
00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:58.639
and it was it was like a weird time because

139
00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:01.360
like most people already gone back to school, so it

140
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:04.800
was like it was like early like late fall and

141
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:08.920
I'm sorry early fall like late summer. And there was

142
00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:12.839
like a porter potty there and I it was it's

143
00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:15.519
a long walk. Like Calvert Cliffs is known for its

144
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.920
like shark teeth, its fossils, so it's like a real

145
00:08:19.279 --> 00:08:24.680
like really unique area. And so we're walking back and uh,

146
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:27.160
you know, I had to stop and use there's like

147
00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:30.360
a porter potty there, and you know that you know,

148
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:32.600
they had that usually like porter potties have those like

149
00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:37.799
spring loaded like doors, and it as soon as like

150
00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:42.000
that happened. We had a response like across this bog

151
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:45.600
of like two knocks, like two wood knocks, and it

152
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:48.080
was like this it was just like the strangest, strangest

153
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:50.639
thing that's like ever happened to us. And like even

154
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:52.440
even my daughter like looked at me and was like,

155
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:55.039
you know, what is that? Right? It was just like really,

156
00:08:55.600 --> 00:09:00.399
you know, kind of like bizarre, bizarre experience. And I

157
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:04.440
guess also with Maryland also, like there's also I guess

158
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:08.720
in terms of cryptozoology in general, there's plenty of Chessea

159
00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:12.159
sightings like in the area, So Chessa is basically kind

160
00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:14.840
of like you know, the Locke Monster of the Chesapeake

161
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:19.720
Bay and what I've what I've discovered, Like you know,

162
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:24.039
there's there's been local sightings like Tapsco I'm sorry, Fort

163
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.279
Smallwood State Park and that's on the Potapsco that's on

164
00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:33.519
the Potapsco River. And then also uh near like more

165
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.240
near the Magothee River, which is like kind of more

166
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.080
southernly Maryland, and you know there's there's been report like

167
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:44.799
report sightings, not necessarily like on the eastern or I'm sorry,

168
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:48.600
the western shore of Maryland, but like further south, like

169
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.639
more towards like the Potomac and of like baby like

170
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.840
kind of like estuary baby chessea sightings, which is really

171
00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:59.639
like really wild, just thinking that like, you know, these

172
00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:03.679
things are you developing like in you know, like a

173
00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:08.440
estuary somewhere of you know, of you know, the United States.

174
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:13.240
So that's that's just basically my time in Maryland when

175
00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:17.039
I saw and there's also been report sightings like near Antietam,

176
00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:19.679
and I've been thinking about going out out there just

177
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:23.120
to kind of explore, you know, what's what's kind of

178
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:27.720
the situation out there. I guess moving moving on the

179
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:31.480
like Pennsylvania, I mean I feel like p A. P

180
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:35.240
A is just this large, you know, crazy tract of

181
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:39.519
land with uh basically has like four four million acres

182
00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:44.000
of like public land that are really you know that

183
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:47.480
gets really wild out there. And it's it's sometimes when

184
00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:51.600
you're in like you know, Sproul State Forests and Susquehanna

185
00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:54.320
State Forest, like you're it's not like you're standing on

186
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:57.000
a mountain by yourself. You're standing basically like on a

187
00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:04.080
on like a mountain ridge by yourself. And so so basically,

188
00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:07.480
you know, having originally been from Pa growing up here,

189
00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:12.039
that area kind of like north of like State College,

190
00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:14.440
PA was always just kind of like a mystery to me.

191
00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:18.399
And in addition to you know, basically there's two point

192
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:23.840
two million acres of state forests in PA. There's about

193
00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:27.440
one and a half million acres of game lands, and

194
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:31.639
there's three hundred thousand acres of state parks, and then

195
00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:35.120
you know, half a million acres for the Allegay National Forest.

196
00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:38.639
So you're talking about almost like four million, four million

197
00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:42.759
acres that you know, people can really get lost in.

198
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:46.360
And it's it's almost basically, you know, my research area

199
00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:49.720
is almost basically the size of Connecticut with the population

200
00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:54.240
of like you know, maybe fifth you know, fifty thousand

201
00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:57.679
people or something. I mean, really nobody lives like in

202
00:11:57.720 --> 00:12:01.080
these areas. It's probably even less than that. And so

203
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.799
basically with the state game lands in Pennsylvania, i mean,

204
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:08.440
the hunting seasons like so small that so for three

205
00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:12.440
cores three cours of the year, you know, basically these

206
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:16.440
like state game lands are just completely like unoccupied. And

207
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:21.600
I've learned that like a lot of I mean even

208
00:12:21.639 --> 00:12:24.799
more recently there's been sightings out of the area near

209
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:27.960
near State College that believe it's the state game lands

210
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:32.200
like three p thirty three and they you know, there's

211
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:38.519
been reword settings of a big foot near a fish estuary.

212
00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:43.399
So basically, I guess the past maybe two years or so.

213
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:46.200
Really since twenty twenty three, that's when you know, I

214
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:49.360
really kind of got my got my channel together because

215
00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:51.799
I was kind of getting h I was getting headaches

216
00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:54.720
from watching people you know, on YouTube use their use

217
00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:58.159
their camera phone to uh to make you know, like

218
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:02.039
crypto Crypto's woldy videos. And I thought I could kind

219
00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:03.720
of just give it a little bit more of a

220
00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:08.639
kind of finished product. So I guess really where I

221
00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:11.960
started was in this little town called cross Forks, PA.

222
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:17.200
So cross Forks, PA, that's that's near the Hammersley Wild Area,

223
00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:21.559
which is like basically the largest area in PA that

224
00:13:21.559 --> 00:13:25.159
that has no roads. So it's about like fifty fifty

225
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:28.639
square miles of no roads that you can you know,

226
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:31.639
just really enjoy yourself and kind of you know, these

227
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:37.000
real backcountry trails that you know, you're not really interrupted

228
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:41.960
in and you know there's there's timber, rattlesnakes, and also

229
00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:44.279
in this area. Back in the I think it was

230
00:13:44.279 --> 00:13:50.919
the nineteen twenties, after the last Woodland elk was actually

231
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:56.200
shot in PA. They were imported from Colorado. So there's

232
00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:58.759
actually a heard of like fourteen hundred elk in north

233
00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:01.879
central PA. And you know, so a lot of them

234
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:04.399
go to like these different wild areas that you know,

235
00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:10.879
are not particularly populated or don't don't have many visitors too.

236
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:14.720
And so because I went to the Hamardsley Wild Area,

237
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:17.279
it was it was just a good experience and kind

238
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.759
of like you know, learning how to make like a

239
00:14:19.799 --> 00:14:22.440
proper narrative, like you know, I mean the first couple

240
00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:24.480
of videos I made, I like I literally got like

241
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:27.120
lost in the woods and like I was still trying

242
00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:29.399
to get my bearings. And I feel like now I

243
00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:32.480
have a little bit more of a better better understanding of,

244
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.879
you know, how how to you know, kind of shoot

245
00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:42.440
a video but not not get lost. So so since

246
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:44.960
so since I was in Sporal and State Farest there's

247
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:49.600
you know, these areas they're like I said, they're really

248
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:53.759
you know, super rural. You know, Pas the only state.

249
00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:57.919
You know, PA's number three in terms of public land size,

250
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:03.480
so only behind like Alaska and California. So you know,

251
00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:05.919
really when you go out to these areas, it's not

252
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.000
even necessarily that you're just kind of worrying about like

253
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:12.519
being within you know, the public state game lands or

254
00:15:12.519 --> 00:15:15.559
things like that, because there's a lot of private clubs

255
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:20.279
up there too, which account for like large large swaths

256
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:25.200
of area. And really, I guess, you know, my my

257
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:29.039
most it's called a Ricketts Glen. That's that's that's one

258
00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:31.960
of my most famous videos, and it's where I kind

259
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:36.000
of started, uh you know, with my channel. And basically

260
00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:38.080
I went to the I went to like the visitor

261
00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:39.879
center because I was actually I was going to camp

262
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:42.120
in the park that night. And you know, I see

263
00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:45.840
this like you know, magnet hanging up that says, you

264
00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:50.679
know that uh there's gonna there's you know, Bigfoot might

265
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:55.039
actually find you or something at uh at Ricketts Glen

266
00:15:55.080 --> 00:15:57.600
State State Park. You know. So it's like there's like

267
00:15:57.639 --> 00:16:01.519
a PA state government, you know, just uh you know

268
00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:06.320
magnet that that that approves that, like, you know, Bigfoot exists,

269
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:10.039
you know. So I asked, I asked the visitor center,

270
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:14.120
you know, lady there, and she said that like, yeah,

271
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:19.120
there had been a reported Sasquatch nest in Rickets Glen,

272
00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:21.799
and you know, I basically it was like almost like

273
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:24.679
a four mile trek through there, and I mean I

274
00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:28.039
saw like kind of like a low, low lying like

275
00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:31.519
tree that had like kind of like a i don't know,

276
00:16:31.840 --> 00:16:36.639
like a reinforced like lower limb, but nothing I saw that,

277
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.960
you know, kind of really said that there was like

278
00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:42.080
a nest in the area. But it just really I

279
00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:44.519
just found it really curious that like, yeah, there's like

280
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:48.279
a state sponsored like a magnet that said, you know,

281
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:51.919
you might you might view you know, looking for Bigfoot

282
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:54.759
at rickets Gun State Park. And that just really blew

283
00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:59.600
my mind. And so I've also been to there's uh

284
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:05.039
like World's World's End State Park, which is uh that's

285
00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:10.359
that's also a North Central PA and there were there

286
00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:13.160
there have been sightings in the area. But I think

287
00:17:13.240 --> 00:17:16.039
the crazy part about that area is that there's like

288
00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:19.400
a it's almost like a plateau to it. And unfortunately,

289
00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:21.680
like I haven't gotten a drone yet, which I which

290
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:24.119
I need to do, and I wish, I wish at

291
00:17:24.119 --> 00:17:26.240
the time I had a drone because like this plateau

292
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:29.759
that's like above you know, where you know, most most

293
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:34.640
of the people are that really like anything could be

294
00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:36.559
hiding up there, and it kind of has almost like

295
00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:40.319
these like cliff edge edges to it. It's it's basically

296
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:42.920
where like kind of the Susquehanna River you know, kind

297
00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:48.839
of bled in through the Allegheny Plateau and yes, which

298
00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:51.720
is yeah, so it's really difficult to climb up these cliffs.

299
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:55.000
I'm definitely next time to go there, I'm gonna definitely

300
00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:57.839
have a drone to like try and get up into

301
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:04.079
these areas. And I guess my other video that I

302
00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:06.799
thought kind of peaued you know, the public's interest was

303
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:11.119
I came across these like ice footprints at the like

304
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:16.319
the PA the Pa Grand area area, and it was

305
00:18:17.359 --> 00:18:19.000
it was just so so odd because it was like

306
00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:21.440
late it was like late December, and you know, I

307
00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:24.680
don't know if a bear would still be like, you know,

308
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:29.440
even up because like these these prints just like you

309
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:33.440
could see the toes and like it just even if

310
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:35.880
it was like a black bear double step, like, I

311
00:18:36.119 --> 00:18:39.720
don't know if it if it could be possible for

312
00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:43.359
it to be like as big as it was. So

313
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:46.240
it's you know, like I said, it's in my catalog.

314
00:18:46.279 --> 00:18:48.680
It's a catalog of video. If people want to check.

315
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:52.079
It out, can I can I ask for clarification for

316
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:53.000
something for a minute.

317
00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:58.640
That happened in right, yeah, exactly. It it's called the

318
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:02.480
Barber Barber Rock Trail. So it's on the north like

319
00:19:02.519 --> 00:19:09.279
the north end of the park there, and so I

320
00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:11.519
I shot up the video there, but I also shot

321
00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:16.599
U there's there's another there's another park on the on

322
00:19:16.680 --> 00:19:20.359
the where of the south end, and that was I

323
00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:23.039
had a little bit of like a smell in that area.

324
00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:24.880
And this is like I said, this is this was

325
00:19:24.920 --> 00:19:28.200
like twenty twenty three, you know, around Christmas time. There's

326
00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:32.720
there's absolutely nobody like nobody in the park. There's called

327
00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:35.160
Colton Point State Park. That's the that's that's the more

328
00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:40.039
southerly state park in in in in the Pine Creek

329
00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:44.599
in the Pie Grand Canyon area. And but but the

330
00:19:44.640 --> 00:19:47.880
footprint was was really of course I had just gotten

331
00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:51.160
a new a new camera and it has like a

332
00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:55.440
building gimbal with it and to like kind of stabilize

333
00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:57.920
the image, and so I was still like learning how

334
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:01.920
to like properly like you know, filmed downwards with it,

335
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:05.119
because it tries to like stay to like the horizon

336
00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:08.599
with with with gimbals just to try and like level

337
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:11.359
out the But I got most I got most of

338
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:16.160
the you know, of the image of the footprint, and

339
00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:18.319
and there was about like a four it was almost

340
00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:23.200
like a four foot span between you know, the footprints,

341
00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:27.559
and they were sixteen inches long and then about like

342
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:30.680
I think it was about like five or six inches wide.

343
00:20:32.240 --> 00:20:35.839
So and I know like black bears in North central

344
00:20:35.839 --> 00:20:38.960
PA have actually they've actually shot black bears that are

345
00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:43.000
eight hundred pounds, so like you have to which are

346
00:20:43.240 --> 00:20:45.680
basically the size of grizzly bears, right, So you have

347
00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:49.279
to be you have to be real careful with like understanding,

348
00:20:49.880 --> 00:20:52.839
you know, kind of what you're what you're seeing. And

349
00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:56.519
I was actually I was blessed enough to actually communicate

350
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:01.119
with doctor Jeff Malderum before he passed about about the

351
00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:05.359
ice ice footprint, and you know, I send them the

352
00:21:05.400 --> 00:21:09.039
images and uh, you know, he always told me to cash,

353
00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:13.519
you know, err on the side of caution. And unfortunately,

354
00:21:13.559 --> 00:21:15.839
like I didn't really have a I didn't make a

355
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:18.240
cast of it, Like I didn't have any like uh,

356
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:21.000
I didn't have any you know, flaster of Paris or

357
00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:23.759
I was actually trying to get into like possibly having

358
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:26.599
like like a three D like image scanner for things.

359
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:29.799
But I'm still I'm still working on that right now,

360
00:21:30.440 --> 00:21:32.640
but at least at least I had my my tape

361
00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:36.759
measure with me to like kind of properly, like you know,

362
00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:40.000
properly you measure things out just because you know, like

363
00:21:40.559 --> 00:21:43.359
on camera, like you have to, like you have to

364
00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:46.240
present some type of like standard, you know, with like

365
00:21:46.279 --> 00:21:50.519
a tape measure too, you know, to really like you know,

366
00:21:50.599 --> 00:21:52.680
kind of be like a litmus test for like what

367
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:54.799
what the size of something is? You know, you can't

368
00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:57.720
because the human eye is like so so good at

369
00:21:57.759 --> 00:22:01.720
like you know, auto auto apturing things that like, you know,

370
00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:04.599
people one thing people don't realize with film is that

371
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:07.759
you know, and that's why I shoot most of my

372
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:11.160
stuff during the daytime, just because I mean if you

373
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:13.640
look at like the Paul Freeman you'll get the Pat

374
00:22:13.640 --> 00:22:17.160
Patterson Gimlin films, Like they were all both during the daytime.

375
00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:19.519
So it's like I feel like, if there's ever going

376
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:23.000
to be like another like any footage of this thing,

377
00:22:23.200 --> 00:22:26.400
it's going to be during the daytime because like I know,

378
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:29.599
there's thermals out there, but like I feel like having

379
00:22:29.640 --> 00:22:33.640
a daytime slighting with with that you know, proper resolution

380
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.680
to actually like see the creature. I think that'll hopefully

381
00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:40.680
lend more credence to like, you know, to it being

382
00:22:40.799 --> 00:22:45.480
like a like a real, real you know animal that

383
00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:51.920
that hopefully gets recognized. So I think having gone from

384
00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.759
like Ricketts Glenn Uh, I'm sorry, the pi a Grand Canyon,

385
00:22:57.240 --> 00:22:59.960
I you know, I've also been to, like I said,

386
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:05.359
north Central PA, which has the Susquehannack Uh State Forests

387
00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:07.400
and the Sprawl State Forest, which kind of like merge

388
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:12.880
into like their own like national for stuff there. And

389
00:23:13.000 --> 00:23:15.240
so basically I would I would go to like old

390
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:19.319
like hunting lodges just to like speak to, you know,

391
00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:22.079
like the locals, just see if like if there's any

392
00:23:22.200 --> 00:23:25.359
like just just anything, you know, and just be like, oh,

393
00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:27.759
you know, like because you know I was, I would

394
00:23:27.799 --> 00:23:29.519
kind of stick out like a sore thumb, you know,

395
00:23:29.720 --> 00:23:32.359
not really like a like a big kind of hunting guy,

396
00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:35.680
you know, and like you know, I'm not really wearing

397
00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:39.160
camo or anything. And you know, and I respect hunters.

398
00:23:39.400 --> 00:23:41.920
I love hunters. They're they're wonderful. They're the only people

399
00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:45.480
I see when I'm when I'm looking for bigfoot, and uh,

400
00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:47.799
and so you know, I just kind of like, you know, shoot,

401
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:50.960
to shoot with them, and they would always tell me,

402
00:23:51.160 --> 00:23:53.799
you know, I had a I had a bartender who

403
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:57.640
was telling me this these experiences her husband was having.

404
00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:01.759
And it's down near like snow. So we're approaching like

405
00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:05.960
these areas that you know, the BFR has been listing.

406
00:24:06.359 --> 00:24:10.279
There was the uh you know recently there's the uh

407
00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:14.240
you know Sasquatch that crossed Route eighty there, I think

408
00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:18.079
it was mark mile mark around like once and I

409
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:22.839
actually I shot a video there at it's called the

410
00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:27.680
Baldi Baldeagle State Park. And that area, like it is

411
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:32.079
like super rural, like there's there's actually in town near there.

412
00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:37.079
There's there's a local barbecue place that's called like a

413
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:40.720
big Foot Blazing Barbecue. So like the whole like the

414
00:24:40.759 --> 00:24:43.960
whole area has like this like local local culture of

415
00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:47.279
like something kind of being in the area. And you know,

416
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:49.799
so her husband was just telling you about how, you know,

417
00:24:49.880 --> 00:24:54.519
he had seen something while he was hunting, got freaked

418
00:24:54.559 --> 00:24:58.200
out and left and this, and then another time like

419
00:24:58.240 --> 00:25:00.920
it was it was like later at night, and because

420
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:04.160
there's there's so many like thunderbird sightings like in this

421
00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:09.839
north central part of PA that they had also come

422
00:25:09.880 --> 00:25:13.279
across you know, like a large it was a large

423
00:25:13.319 --> 00:25:18.319
bird and it was at dusk and like it completely

424
00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:21.400
freaked this hunter out. So I really I've also I've

425
00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:24.240
also read like plenty of books there's it's called like

426
00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:27.759
the Pennsylvania Stories and more Pennsylvania Stories. But I believe

427
00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:29.960
his name is Henry Shoemaker. I mean this was written

428
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:33.160
in like the nineteen twenties or so, but it has

429
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:37.119
a lot of like listed events with you know, different

430
00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:40.640
events happening you know in in like the Sprowl State

431
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:44.000
Forest and this and the Susquehanna State Forest in terms

432
00:25:44.039 --> 00:25:46.920
of thunderbirds. So I mean there's just like I said,

433
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:50.480
it's it's such like a like a wild and untamed

434
00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:53.160
area that like, uh yeah, you could you could hide

435
00:25:53.160 --> 00:25:56.759
a dinosaur up there and nobody would know. And so

436
00:25:57.000 --> 00:26:00.839
basically when I was shooting my video for for Bigfoot

437
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:04.880
near near Snowshoe, I came across like a there was

438
00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:08.359
like a this old like abandoned like it was like

439
00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:13.680
a railway trail and like this like are like four

440
00:26:13.799 --> 00:26:16.519
x four quad club had like kind of commandeered it

441
00:26:16.559 --> 00:26:19.519
but not fully, and like the bridge was out like

442
00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:21.480
the bridge like you know, if you go to Google Maps,

443
00:26:21.559 --> 00:26:24.279
like Google Maps that says like like it's okay, and

444
00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:27.559
it's it's not okay. Like the bridge is completely like

445
00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:32.839
like half demolished. And so I'm I'm traveling down you know,

446
00:26:32.880 --> 00:26:36.960
the path on this old abandoned like quad club trail,

447
00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:42.000
and you know, I see these like large like footprints.

448
00:26:41.519 --> 00:26:45.759
It's under my video called Sasquatch Colt, and I basically

449
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:49.279
I came across these like weird like runic like somebody

450
00:26:49.440 --> 00:26:52.599
create these like weird runic tablet things on the side

451
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:55.240
of the road. I was really like, I thank god

452
00:26:55.240 --> 00:26:57.519
I had like bear sprang when I grew out, because

453
00:26:57.559 --> 00:26:59.200
like it's you know, I was in this like it

454
00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:01.880
was almost like a like a valley, like a little

455
00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:03.920
like valley. So if like anybody was going to like

456
00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:06.119
ambush me, like this was like the place to do it.

457
00:27:06.839 --> 00:27:08.480
And so I'm like, you know, kind of like walking

458
00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:11.240
down this like trail like all by myself, and I

459
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:14.359
come across these like weird you know, like runic symbol

460
00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:18.559
things I saw that just kept on going, but like

461
00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:21.559
like across the trail, you know, because it had like

462
00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:25.759
lightly snowed where these like you know like six like

463
00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:30.400
sixteen inch like footprints dashing across the trail so like

464
00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:32.440
and and like I said, it was like I think

465
00:27:32.480 --> 00:27:35.759
it was early January. So with it with it being

466
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:40.039
like a bear, I don't know, like I don't know

467
00:27:40.039 --> 00:27:43.319
if a bear is going to be out in early January.

468
00:27:43.880 --> 00:27:46.559
And and there were deer. There were deer in the area,

469
00:27:47.279 --> 00:27:50.960
so it was, uh, you know, it was very like

470
00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:54.720
you know, humbling experience, just because I guess I was

471
00:27:54.759 --> 00:27:57.279
in an area that I was actually using snow shoes

472
00:27:57.319 --> 00:28:00.799
because like the area like had gotten so kind of rough,

473
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:02.880
and it was like the only way that I could

474
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:06.599
really hopefully get back to uh like you get back

475
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:09.519
back to my car, you know, from from where this

476
00:28:09.599 --> 00:28:13.640
area was. Yeah, And like I said, the area is

477
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:17.200
called like Renault Renovo, Pa, which is it's it's in

478
00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:19.759
the dead middle of like nowhere. And if you go

479
00:28:19.799 --> 00:28:21.640
to like it's called like lock if you go from

480
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:25.000
like lock Haven to like Emporium off like I believe

481
00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:28.000
it's one twenty there, like Renovo's like in the center

482
00:28:28.039 --> 00:28:32.039
of it, and it you know, like like when you

483
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:34.160
go this town, it's it's just like it's it's like

484
00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:36.519
a it's almost like a like a ghost town. It's

485
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:41.839
it's like really abandoned over the years. And so in

486
00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:44.880
addition to like you know the big foot sightings and

487
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:48.839
like thumbered thunderbird sightings, I also wanted to like I

488
00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:52.759
also trying to do like classical like extinct species and

489
00:28:54.039 --> 00:28:56.279
so there I'm not sure if you're familiar with like

490
00:28:56.359 --> 00:28:59.559
you know the Kinna State like football team, the Knittney

491
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:03.359
Lyon Absolutely well they yeah, they So they actually get

492
00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:07.640
their name from you know these like you know theoretical

493
00:29:07.920 --> 00:29:13.440
like mountain lions that existed in that area of PA.

494
00:29:13.720 --> 00:29:19.079
That potentially because all these species were all like extirpated,

495
00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:23.440
you know, the like I said, the woodland elk, the

496
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:26.240
the bison. There was woodland bison. There were past there

497
00:29:26.519 --> 00:29:32.640
passenger pigeon flocks of like three billion, three or four

498
00:29:32.720 --> 00:29:36.880
billion that used to blot out the sun like during

499
00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:40.680
the daytime, and we actually we hunted them all to extinction.

500
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.160
And because you know, people found the meat, like the

501
00:29:45.200 --> 00:29:48.440
of the passenger pigeon there to be you know, tasty.

502
00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:51.039
So that's that's one of the reasons that that was

503
00:29:51.480 --> 00:29:57.160
basically killed to extinction. And so because you know, the

504
00:29:57.240 --> 00:30:00.119
nitty lions kind of are in that area in like

505
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:05.160
Sprouse State Forest. I followed this like old it was

506
00:30:05.200 --> 00:30:07.839
called like the Panther Tower, the Panther Trail through there,

507
00:30:08.599 --> 00:30:10.680
and basically there used to there used to be like

508
00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:13.039
a lot of fire towers and PA and a lot

509
00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:16.599
of them have been actually just like taken down. And

510
00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:20.400
you know, they had these names from like you know,

511
00:30:20.759 --> 00:30:25.880
maybe you know fifty sixty, seventy years ago, because potentially,

512
00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:28.400
like you know, even a hundred years ago, there was

513
00:30:28.440 --> 00:30:33.599
still mountain lions in PA. And I mean even up

514
00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:37.559
until recently, there was the mountain lion that move went

515
00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:41.599
from like I think it was like North Dakota to Connecticut.

516
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:45.559
So my theory was, like, you know, did this did

517
00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:48.319
this mountain lion even did it kind of come through

518
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:53.160
north central PA to get to Connecticut? And I didn't.

519
00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:56.799
I didn't see any signs of mountain lions. But I

520
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:00.759
swear whenever I'm looking for like thunderbirds or mount lines, like,

521
00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:06.319
I always come across like weird, weird like big foot stuff.

522
00:31:06.400 --> 00:31:09.039
Like the trail that I had to kind of go through,

523
00:31:10.039 --> 00:31:13.640
it was it was like all like all crashed in

524
00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:16.839
like there looked like something had you know, thrown down

525
00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:20.440
like and put x's on the trail, so I didn't

526
00:31:20.559 --> 00:31:22.799
like that was more like kind of the western part

527
00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:26.119
of this this trail, and I just headed east because

528
00:31:26.119 --> 00:31:27.720
that's kind of I was. I was looking for the

529
00:31:28.440 --> 00:31:33.359
panther tower in this and so you know, continually, even

530
00:31:33.480 --> 00:31:38.119
even while I'm like still looking for you know, other species,

531
00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:41.519
like like Bigfoot still kind of like kind of sticks

532
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:44.359
his foot in there, and like, you know, still there's

533
00:31:44.400 --> 00:31:47.240
still weird signs that kind of you can kind of

534
00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:51.960
exist here and there I've also been to so there

535
00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:53.119
used to be like it I believe it was like

536
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:57.039
an old like nuclear or missile testing range in north

537
00:31:57.039 --> 00:31:59.160
central PA. And it was called it's called the Khana

538
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:01.880
Wild Area. And so if if you look at a

539
00:32:01.880 --> 00:32:04.440
map of Pa, you can even see it on Google Maps.

540
00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:08.640
It's it's a there's a perfect circle like in in

541
00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:12.200
central Pa of like I guess the state brought back

542
00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:17.440
the land like from this like nuclear facility. And it's

543
00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:19.680
just so bizarre. And so so there was like in

544
00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:22.519
nineteen eighty five there was like a terrible tornado that

545
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:26.200
actually like blew through this area, and it's just it's

546
00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:28.279
just so bizarre, Like just looking on a map and

547
00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:31.119
just seeing like a like you know, maps are usually

548
00:32:31.119 --> 00:32:33.920
just more natural, but but seeing like an actual like

549
00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:37.759
circle like on you know, in the in the PA

550
00:32:38.039 --> 00:32:40.759
like you know, fares system, You're like, you're just like,

551
00:32:40.799 --> 00:32:45.480
what what is going on? And so so that that

552
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:48.000
area that can can have a lot area. I've been

553
00:32:48.039 --> 00:32:50.400
through there and you know, there's there's some some trails

554
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:53.039
that are pretty pretty cool in terms of you know,

555
00:32:53.079 --> 00:32:57.079
being wild, and a lot a lot in that area.

556
00:32:57.119 --> 00:32:59.960
That's where there's a lot like elk like elk viewing area.

557
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:04.160
And so while I was shooting one of my videos,

558
00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:08.160
you know, I it was like a terrible windy day,

559
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:10.240
it was snowy out, Like I was the only person

560
00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:15.400
like at at these like elk viewing areas. And they're

561
00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:18.920
basically like reclaim reclaim land the state bought just because

562
00:33:18.920 --> 00:33:21.599
they were like they were strip mined, and so they

563
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:25.640
reclaimed the land and now elk are able to like

564
00:33:26.119 --> 00:33:28.759
actually like live, you know, and kind of thrive on this.

565
00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:31.720
But during the wintertime, of course, you know, most animals

566
00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:34.160
kind of go into the trees and start to start

567
00:33:34.200 --> 00:33:37.079
even eating like you know, some type of sticks and

568
00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:40.799
brushes and that type of thing. But when I was there.

569
00:33:41.119 --> 00:33:44.920
There was like like so I shut my door, and

570
00:33:44.960 --> 00:33:48.000
then like a couple of seconds later, I heard like

571
00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:50.880
a wood knock in the valley in the distance. It

572
00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:52.960
was just like it just blew my mind like that,

573
00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:56.200
like you know, like I don't even think. I don't

574
00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:57.960
think I had the camera running at that time, and

575
00:33:58.599 --> 00:34:00.720
I think I feel like I've had other experiences like

576
00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:03.640
that where like like and I'm conscious of it now,

577
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:05.960
but like when I first go to the area, like

578
00:34:06.039 --> 00:34:09.199
I'm always like I always turned my camera on before,

579
00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:14.039
like I shut my door, because I've I've definitely had

580
00:34:14.280 --> 00:34:18.239
like some some responses like when whenever I close my door,

581
00:34:18.280 --> 00:34:20.960
I guess I slammed my door kind of hard, and

582
00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:26.639
they I've heard woodknocks definitely in the distance, I guess.

583
00:34:26.679 --> 00:34:30.000
Another another example is that it was so also in

584
00:34:30.039 --> 00:34:32.440
north central PA. It's called the Kettle Creek State Park,

585
00:34:33.280 --> 00:34:36.440
and that is like, you know, it's it's a phenomenal.

586
00:34:36.599 --> 00:34:39.000
It's it's one of the tributaries to the Susquehanna River.

587
00:34:39.519 --> 00:34:44.079
And you know, in addition to like the the elk,

588
00:34:44.360 --> 00:34:49.639
the buffalo, and the passenger pigeons before the dams were

589
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:54.440
erected throughout you know throughout the state, harbor seals actually

590
00:34:54.519 --> 00:34:57.480
used to like to swim like all the way really

591
00:34:57.519 --> 00:35:01.039
into like deep north central PA. And so they were

592
00:35:01.119 --> 00:35:04.639
they were given the nickname the Kettle Creek Monster. So

593
00:35:05.119 --> 00:35:06.920
I was just I was just kind of filming that video,

594
00:35:07.199 --> 00:35:08.800
and I just I was going to get some b

595
00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:11.239
roll because I had, like a I have like another

596
00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:13.360
camera too, it's more of like a long distance camera,

597
00:35:14.480 --> 00:35:17.400
and like you know, once again, I just like I

598
00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:19.880
shut my door. I think I was like filming. I

599
00:35:19.880 --> 00:35:22.000
was just filming birds. There are some you know, really

600
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:24.480
beautiful ducks that were on the creek there, and like

601
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:26.760
I shut my door, and then off in the distance,

602
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:29.079
I heard like a I heard like a wood knock,

603
00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:31.840
and like for me, the question is like if it's

604
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:35.519
a hunter, Like it's not an echo because it's just

605
00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:38.559
it's it happens usually too too long afterwards, and like,

606
00:35:39.159 --> 00:35:41.639
you know, why would like a why would a hunter

607
00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:44.639
be like firing off a gun like in response to

608
00:35:44.679 --> 00:35:49.360
my like door, you know, slamming. So like that's that's

609
00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:52.119
kind of my my only explanation for in that area.

610
00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:58.039
So I guess moving on to even more places, there's

611
00:35:58.079 --> 00:36:02.920
also the like Cinema Honing like State Park. I know,

612
00:36:03.039 --> 00:36:06.079
like you know a lot of like those the Bigfoot

613
00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:08.760
Society guys, like they kind of go up into that area.

614
00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:11.679
And I've been in that area too, like actually actually

615
00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:14.559
shot a video that was actually on top of the dam,

616
00:36:14.960 --> 00:36:16.440
you know, and and a lot of these like parks,

617
00:36:16.440 --> 00:36:19.800
it's like they're really like you know, like they're really forgotten.

618
00:36:19.960 --> 00:36:23.880
Near like Boston, PA. There's like an old dam that

619
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:26.239
like blew out, so it looks like, you know, you

620
00:36:26.320 --> 00:36:28.199
go there, it's almost looks like it's like Lord of

621
00:36:28.199 --> 00:36:31.400
the Rings and you're like, you know, like there's nobody

622
00:36:31.440 --> 00:36:35.559
else around. You're you have these like giant like earthworks projects,

623
00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:37.679
and you're just kind of like, you know, you can

624
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:41.760
literally walk on this dam and just you know, just

625
00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:46.119
really beautiful you know, clear water and you know, no

626
00:36:46.199 --> 00:36:53.719
pollution in this area. But I guess also so I

627
00:36:53.719 --> 00:36:55.719
guess going back to like the State Game Lands, like

628
00:36:56.000 --> 00:36:59.119
so State there's that sighting at that fish Estuary, which

629
00:36:59.119 --> 00:37:01.440
I believe it was like State Inlands like three thirty three,

630
00:37:02.360 --> 00:37:04.320
and that that was like in March of like this

631
00:37:04.360 --> 00:37:09.599
past year. And you know, I had actually shot like

632
00:37:09.639 --> 00:37:12.559
a like a video like earlier. You know, THEO was

633
00:37:12.599 --> 00:37:16.400
two years ago where there had been you know, like

634
00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:21.400
previous also other bigfoot crossings off the I eighty cardor so.

635
00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:24.920
So basically I feel like like north of like in PA,

636
00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:27.800
like north of like the I eighty corridor, like it's

637
00:37:27.840 --> 00:37:31.840
it can really get like like it's really wild right

638
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:37.000
and like and super like super unpopulated. And and for me,

639
00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:40.199
it's like my question is are these creatures are they

640
00:37:40.639 --> 00:37:43.119
do they want like do they want the attention? Do

641
00:37:43.199 --> 00:37:46.559
they want you know, do they want like do they

642
00:37:46.559 --> 00:37:49.480
want to be near us? So I still haven't really

643
00:37:49.480 --> 00:37:53.039
figured that out. And you know in this area, like

644
00:37:53.079 --> 00:37:55.440
if you you know, near the Bald Eagle like State

645
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:58.199
Park and State Game Lands three thirty three, you know,

646
00:37:58.599 --> 00:38:02.159
you kind of go between like you know, like mountains

647
00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:05.440
that are that are forested and then and then like

648
00:38:05.639 --> 00:38:08.400
farms in the valleys and then mountains in the forest

649
00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:11.199
and then you know, like farms in the valleys. And

650
00:38:11.280 --> 00:38:13.800
so it's like it would be like perfect terrain for

651
00:38:13.880 --> 00:38:16.280
an animal to like you know, kind of hide at

652
00:38:16.360 --> 00:38:18.159
night in the woods or hide during the day during

653
00:38:18.159 --> 00:38:20.480
the woods and then come down at night to like

654
00:38:20.760 --> 00:38:24.320
to steal food, you know, from like a local you know, farmer,

655
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:28.079
and so there's there's definitely like this like it's definitely

656
00:38:28.159 --> 00:38:31.079
this like Goldilock Zone of like hey, there's like potentially

657
00:38:31.119 --> 00:38:34.760
like a food source for these creatures and you know

658
00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:38.519
they have like a they have like a place to hide.

659
00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:41.880
I guess. Going further south, like I've also been to

660
00:38:41.960 --> 00:38:45.760
like it's called Mecho State Park and like that's that's

661
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:48.440
weird because I think it's actually like the northern Termus

662
00:38:48.440 --> 00:38:52.480
of like almost the Blue Ridge Mountains. So and like

663
00:38:52.719 --> 00:38:55.559
it's weird because like outside of it, like it's not

664
00:38:55.719 --> 00:38:59.880
there's really no like there's no mountains, so it's it's

665
00:39:00.119 --> 00:39:02.960
this little island in the sky and there's been like

666
00:39:03.039 --> 00:39:05.480
lots of uh more. I shot one of my first

667
00:39:05.559 --> 00:39:08.880
videos there and that was like one of you know,

668
00:39:09.920 --> 00:39:13.039
uh you know like a really really special special spot.

669
00:39:13.159 --> 00:39:16.840
You know. I guess in terms of like you know,

670
00:39:16.920 --> 00:39:19.119
more more areas and pa I've also been into like

671
00:39:19.159 --> 00:39:23.360
the Delaware Delaware State Forest and uh that's kind of

672
00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:26.000
where like there's Promised Land State Park out there. There's

673
00:39:26.039 --> 00:39:30.559
also it's called like Egypt Meadows, and like Egypt Meadows

674
00:39:30.599 --> 00:39:34.239
is like kind of crazy because it's like you really

675
00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:38.199
like I have a garment. I have like like GPS

676
00:39:38.239 --> 00:39:41.480
like search and Rescue insurance just because like when you

677
00:39:41.519 --> 00:39:43.440
when you go down on these trails like by yourself,

678
00:39:44.760 --> 00:39:46.639
like you have to just kind of be prepared for

679
00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:50.920
the worst. And it's not like a like a more

680
00:39:51.119 --> 00:39:53.559
like you know, kind of urban park where there's there's

681
00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:56.320
gonna be more people, you know, some of these some

682
00:39:56.400 --> 00:39:59.280
of these like you know, really kind of out there,

683
00:39:59.480 --> 00:40:03.360
like uh, you know, state parks like they yeah, they

684
00:40:03.480 --> 00:40:06.960
they're they're really like in the middle of like almost nowhere, right,

685
00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:10.960
and like they like they're they're very scarcely populated with

686
00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:16.079
other hikers and actually, like I actually like it's one

687
00:40:16.079 --> 00:40:17.639
of the few times I've I've gotten lost on a

688
00:40:17.679 --> 00:40:20.079
trail and actually turned back because it was like it

689
00:40:20.119 --> 00:40:23.599
was getting your dusk and like I was just like

690
00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:26.440
like there's there's no point in like like getting lost

691
00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:28.760
in the woods at nighttime and you know, something like

692
00:40:28.840 --> 00:40:33.519
something happening to you. So I think that's that's like

693
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:36.159
a pretty good you know kind of examination of like

694
00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:41.679
you know, where where I've been in PA and I

695
00:40:41.679 --> 00:40:45.079
guess moving on to uh like so I've been to

696
00:40:45.320 --> 00:40:48.840
a lot of spots in New Jersey as well. Uh

697
00:40:49.119 --> 00:40:51.440
So basically, you know, one of the first videos I

698
00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:55.239
ever shot was the it's like the the the Jersey

699
00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:59.719
Devil of course, right, and so like Ocean Spray, that's

700
00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:02.400
like the Cranberry Company, they have like a lot of

701
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:07.199
abandoned like cranberry bogs that are that are in in

702
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:12.239
these areas. And so I was, you know, shooting my

703
00:41:12.320 --> 00:41:15.360
video and and I saw this like, you know, large

704
00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:18.599
extremely large bird like kind of fleeing in the distance.

705
00:41:18.639 --> 00:41:20.599
It was like a it's definitely like a crane. It

706
00:41:20.639 --> 00:41:22.840
wasn't it was even it was even like bigger than

707
00:41:22.880 --> 00:41:25.559
like a heron. And so I did it like a

708
00:41:25.599 --> 00:41:28.920
little bit of research deep dive into the area. And

709
00:41:29.000 --> 00:41:33.239
so like South Jersey, like the pine bearns they have,

710
00:41:34.039 --> 00:41:37.079
uh they have the sand hill crane, which actually migrates

711
00:41:37.119 --> 00:41:41.440
through there. But even like weirder and like like more

712
00:41:41.440 --> 00:41:44.039
more recent times, like in the nineties, there was a

713
00:41:44.079 --> 00:41:47.159
farmer like in upstate New York who actually imported these

714
00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:51.679
they're called Eurasian gray cranes, and they actually they got

715
00:41:51.719 --> 00:41:54.920
loose and they somehow, like I guess, found the sandhill

716
00:41:54.960 --> 00:41:59.400
crane population and started like in intermingling with them. So

717
00:41:59.440 --> 00:42:03.480
I actually like it's extremely I mean with my mind's eye,

718
00:42:03.519 --> 00:42:05.960
like I saw quite well, but you know with the

719
00:42:05.960 --> 00:42:08.039
camera I was using it at the time, it didn't

720
00:42:08.079 --> 00:42:11.199
like you can kind of see it, but it's like extremely,

721
00:42:11.280 --> 00:42:14.119
extremely in the distance. So you know, my my theory

722
00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:18.639
on the Jersey Devil is that you know, basically back

723
00:42:18.679 --> 00:42:21.559
in colonial times when you know, people were first coming

724
00:42:21.599 --> 00:42:24.199
to this country, you know, they were coming across like

725
00:42:24.280 --> 00:42:27.679
sand hill cranes, and they mistook it for the Jersey Devil.

726
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:31.960
And it's kind of controversial and people will like you

727
00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:35.000
know kind of you know, really really put the paranormal

728
00:42:35.079 --> 00:42:39.599
side to things. But like I mean, the sandal cranes

729
00:42:39.679 --> 00:42:43.920
like they they avoid like they avoid humanity, like the plague.

730
00:42:44.280 --> 00:42:46.920
And like I was like, I mean I was maybe

731
00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:49.800
a quarter mile away from this thing and it took

732
00:42:49.840 --> 00:42:53.280
off and with these drained bogs, it's like you go

733
00:42:53.360 --> 00:42:57.280
in there. And I also shot another so I shot

734
00:42:57.519 --> 00:43:01.199
there was in the same kind of areas, Like there's

735
00:43:01.199 --> 00:43:03.920
like Brendan t Burn State Farce, which is part of

736
00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:09.079
the Pine Barrens. There was a report setting of you

737
00:43:09.119 --> 00:43:11.360
know Bigfoot, you know, by the side of the road.

738
00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:14.800
You know, there's some just like some person saw like

739
00:43:14.800 --> 00:43:19.239
like a juvenile bigfoot, and so I it was, you know,

740
00:43:19.239 --> 00:43:22.880
one of my early videos, and you know, I definitely

741
00:43:22.920 --> 00:43:26.920
like I captured some type of footprint and it looked

742
00:43:26.920 --> 00:43:31.400
like it treaded into the the like the bogs like

743
00:43:31.440 --> 00:43:35.199
in the swamps there. So like you know, because I

744
00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:38.400
really I feel like if these things are just you know,

745
00:43:39.039 --> 00:43:41.079
Bigfoot's like avoiding us, They're they're going to go to

746
00:43:41.199 --> 00:43:45.079
like you know, the most nasty places they can to

747
00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:48.280
avoid us. And and funny enough, like I was looking

748
00:43:48.320 --> 00:43:51.079
at the Google comments for like this this area where

749
00:43:51.519 --> 00:43:54.239
where I saw these like footprints and like just some

750
00:43:54.360 --> 00:43:56.960
like local Yokul was like he was like, oh this

751
00:43:57.039 --> 00:43:58.559
is oh, this is where you know, this is where

752
00:43:58.599 --> 00:44:02.079
Bigfoot hangs out. So my mom was like completely blown

753
00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:06.320
and and that's not my so basically moving more like

754
00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:09.599
towards the coast, you know there there have actually been

755
00:44:09.719 --> 00:44:12.960
like big foot settings like at the Jersey Shore, and

756
00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:16.800
I really I feel like this potentially maybe could be

757
00:44:16.880 --> 00:44:20.480
real because during like the wintertime, like there's nobody in

758
00:44:20.519 --> 00:44:23.280
some of these towns, like everybody kind of moves back

759
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:26.159
to like you know, Philly or New York for the

760
00:44:26.239 --> 00:44:29.000
for the for the winter, and so like you know,

761
00:44:29.400 --> 00:44:31.320
I just had this like funny thought of like a

762
00:44:31.400 --> 00:44:33.920
of a big foot like treading through some like Jersey

763
00:44:33.960 --> 00:44:38.480
Beach town, you know, like with like nobody around. And

764
00:44:38.559 --> 00:44:41.840
so I went to it's called Double Trouble State Park.

765
00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:48.519
And so this basically like underneath the underneath the New

766
00:44:48.599 --> 00:44:51.320
Jersey Pine Barrens is like one of the largest like

767
00:44:51.440 --> 00:44:55.719
reservoirs in the world for like water. So it's even

768
00:44:55.880 --> 00:44:59.639
like so it's basically like these aquifers that are underground

769
00:44:59.679 --> 00:45:02.360
that are beating these like you know rivers through these

770
00:45:02.440 --> 00:45:06.199
like state parks like in in in the Pine Burns,

771
00:45:06.840 --> 00:45:09.199
and you know, it's like this really weird looking like

772
00:45:09.360 --> 00:45:13.360
tea colored uh tea colored like you know, kind of

773
00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:15.800
water to it. And I think that's actually like where

774
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:19.760
I I think years prior, like I I think I

775
00:45:19.800 --> 00:45:24.000
wrote into you about a swamp dog in South Jersey

776
00:45:24.159 --> 00:45:26.239
and like the here, yeah, in the area that he

777
00:45:26.360 --> 00:45:28.679
was at, and so I kind of like I invested this,

778
00:45:29.199 --> 00:45:32.760
you know, this area just to kind of you know,

779
00:45:33.239 --> 00:45:35.840
see if there's any like you know, validity to it.

780
00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:38.119
And like you go back like in some of these

781
00:45:38.199 --> 00:45:41.679
like you know, like river areas, and it's it's really

782
00:45:41.960 --> 00:45:44.920
really like really Jurassic back there. You know, there's like

783
00:45:45.320 --> 00:45:47.880
sometimes there's like Spanish moss like hanging on the trees

784
00:45:47.880 --> 00:45:51.239
and things like that. Like it's real, like like real

785
00:45:51.440 --> 00:45:55.920
like real, real super wild area. And so I definitely,

786
00:45:56.880 --> 00:46:00.360
I definitely you could see how like they're in, especially

787
00:46:00.360 --> 00:46:02.559
in Sauce, Jersey, there could be you know, some type

788
00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:06.280
of like anything. But I guess starting to go a

789
00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:10.159
little bit further north, like through that it's called the

790
00:46:10.199 --> 00:46:15.480
Gateway National Recreation Area at Sandy Hook, and like what

791
00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:18.800
people just don't realize like even you know, like harbor

792
00:46:18.840 --> 00:46:23.079
seals like really they they winter like in like at

793
00:46:23.079 --> 00:46:24.519
the Jersey Shore. And I just thought it was like

794
00:46:24.559 --> 00:46:26.840
a funny idea of like you know, I know, it's

795
00:46:26.840 --> 00:46:29.079
not like it's not particularly encrypted, but like you know,

796
00:46:29.239 --> 00:46:31.960
just I feel like it kind of it could kind

797
00:46:31.960 --> 00:46:34.360
of blow people's minds just to like, you know, because

798
00:46:34.519 --> 00:46:36.400
I guess we have this like idea of like seals

799
00:46:36.400 --> 00:46:38.760
at least on the East coast being like you know,

800
00:46:38.840 --> 00:46:43.000
and you're like you know Nova Scotia or or you

801
00:46:43.000 --> 00:46:45.679
know Greenland or something. You know, so It's just like

802
00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:48.559
fun knowing that like, you know, these these kind of

803
00:46:48.599 --> 00:46:50.320
hit down here in the mid Atlantic, we can like

804
00:46:50.440 --> 00:46:52.760
we can go see seals. It's like the dead of

805
00:46:52.840 --> 00:46:57.199
winner too. It's usually like January or February. And but

806
00:46:57.679 --> 00:46:59.519
so I was going to like you know, kind of

807
00:47:00.039 --> 00:47:01.960
best seeing the area a little bit more. And there's

808
00:47:01.960 --> 00:47:04.639
definitely been a lot of like you know, sea creatures

809
00:47:05.480 --> 00:47:09.440
explained sea creatures in that Sandy Hook Bay area. And

810
00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:14.400
so there's a situation where there was these fishers, not

811
00:47:14.639 --> 00:47:18.280
a fishermen, but even just locals who they keep on

812
00:47:18.400 --> 00:47:22.039
reporting seeing a like a sea monster with it has

813
00:47:22.079 --> 00:47:24.920
like a bulldog face to it. And so it's like

814
00:47:25.000 --> 00:47:28.119
really weird that like specifically you people just keep on

815
00:47:28.199 --> 00:47:30.320
bringing up this like you know, kind of the sea

816
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:34.440
sea creature that has this like same face every single time.

817
00:47:35.079 --> 00:47:36.960
I just I just found that interesting, you know, just

818
00:47:37.079 --> 00:47:39.639
with with having like the harbor seals in that area.

819
00:47:40.960 --> 00:47:43.920
But if you're further north, like in New Jersey, like

820
00:47:44.199 --> 00:47:47.159
you know, and getting towards almost the New York line.

821
00:47:47.679 --> 00:47:52.199
Basically the during the ice ages, the ice sheets, basically

822
00:47:52.599 --> 00:47:55.880
the southern terminus was like near like you know, North

823
00:47:55.960 --> 00:47:59.800
Jersey and southern southern New York. So what happened was

824
00:47:59.840 --> 00:48:03.840
like all that like earth and rocks and soils that

825
00:48:04.360 --> 00:48:07.119
were you know, when they were ground and push they

826
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:09.960
most of them are actually pushed to like this area.

827
00:48:10.039 --> 00:48:12.000
So you have like a lot of areas with all

828
00:48:12.039 --> 00:48:14.960
these like I think they're called like radical boulders. Yeah,

829
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:17.840
that are just kind of deposited because it was where

830
00:48:18.079 --> 00:48:20.760
like you know, like I said, the ice sheets had stopped.

831
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:24.280
So yeah, I know David Plaiti's as the you know

832
00:48:24.320 --> 00:48:26.000
a lot of a lot of times when he has

833
00:48:26.079 --> 00:48:29.320
occurrences of people like missing, it's around like boulders, like

834
00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:33.000
like granite boulders and things like that. And it's just

835
00:48:33.000 --> 00:48:35.280
just funny that this, you know that these areas and

836
00:48:35.360 --> 00:48:38.280
like north North Jersey and like you know, southern New

837
00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:42.039
York have all these like you know, free radical boulders

838
00:48:42.039 --> 00:48:45.880
that you know, people potentially you know, or boulder fields

839
00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:52.400
that people potentially like have bigfoot bigfoot sightings. And yeah,

840
00:48:52.400 --> 00:48:54.400
I mean if you go to North Jersey, like you

841
00:48:54.440 --> 00:48:56.679
can actually just look it up on Google. It's called

842
00:48:57.000 --> 00:49:01.400
just taking a big Foot sculpture. And so I I

843
00:49:02.719 --> 00:49:04.920
don't even I think I just came across it randomly.

844
00:49:04.960 --> 00:49:07.599
So there's in near like I think it's called the

845
00:49:07.639 --> 00:49:11.079
wanna Que Reservoir. There's a trail out there, it's called

846
00:49:11.119 --> 00:49:15.000
the Sculpture Trail. And so you know, I'm walking around

847
00:49:15.079 --> 00:49:16.559
and you know this it's where I shot one of

848
00:49:16.559 --> 00:49:20.159
my videos and basically like this big Foot sculpture is

849
00:49:20.199 --> 00:49:23.800
atop this cave. And so there was another situation where

850
00:49:23.840 --> 00:49:26.599
like I definitely have to get a jerome because you know,

851
00:49:26.639 --> 00:49:28.719
when I was walking like near this cave, like I

852
00:49:28.760 --> 00:49:32.679
definitely like I was like above the cave like where

853
00:49:32.679 --> 00:49:37.119
the Bigfoot sculpture was, and this terrible smell was like

854
00:49:37.119 --> 00:49:40.360
emanating from it and like something was in there, and

855
00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:42.559
like I just did not want to like you know,

856
00:49:42.760 --> 00:49:45.000
just check it out and like see see what was

857
00:49:45.039 --> 00:49:49.519
going on. I guess with you know, with North Jersey,

858
00:49:49.880 --> 00:49:54.239
like the if you're I feel like if you're really

859
00:49:54.280 --> 00:49:56.760
if you're really serious about like trying to find like

860
00:49:56.800 --> 00:49:59.920
big Foot in the area, you know, the basically from

861
00:49:59.920 --> 00:50:04.400
like like the delwork App National Recreation as far as

862
00:50:04.480 --> 00:50:07.440
to like high Point State Park that's it's all part

863
00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:09.679
of like that it's called the kidd Tinny like mountain

864
00:50:09.760 --> 00:50:13.239
Range and like I feel like in terms of like

865
00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:16.840
you know, potentially where these creatures have been pushed to

866
00:50:16.920 --> 00:50:19.920
in New Jersey because there I shot a video. It

867
00:50:20.039 --> 00:50:25.119
was like where these diners were at this like restaurant

868
00:50:25.199 --> 00:50:28.559
that was like really like rural kind of like mountain

869
00:50:28.760 --> 00:50:31.199
kind of restaurant thing, and they're sitting there and they

870
00:50:31.239 --> 00:50:34.400
see these like too bigfoot like you know, kind of

871
00:50:34.440 --> 00:50:37.079
like a cross the field and like and and these

872
00:50:37.079 --> 00:50:39.800
couples are just sitting there and they're like looking at

873
00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:42.199
each other like are you seeing that? Like these you know,

874
00:50:42.239 --> 00:50:44.519
they're strangers, They're like are are you seeing that? And

875
00:50:44.519 --> 00:50:47.000
then like they're both looking at each other like oh

876
00:50:47.000 --> 00:50:49.360
my god, like what is this? Right? So I actually

877
00:50:49.360 --> 00:50:52.800
I shot a video at that way, and it's time

878
00:50:52.800 --> 00:50:56.360
I ever filled. I feel the film the like Little

879
00:50:56.360 --> 00:50:59.480
Baby Bear Cubs, which was like you know, you know,

880
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:02.880
just fund finally finally see finally see a bear in

881
00:51:02.920 --> 00:51:07.840
the wild. And yeah, So that that area through uh

882
00:51:08.000 --> 00:51:11.760
you know, the bell Or Gap National Recreation Area to

883
00:51:11.760 --> 00:51:14.280
to high Point State Park. That's kind of like where

884
00:51:14.320 --> 00:51:17.639
like the Big Red Eyes known and that's that's like

885
00:51:17.880 --> 00:51:22.320
really famous for sightings. Uh. I tried to like mimic

886
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:24.039
there was a sighting there where I believe it is

887
00:51:24.079 --> 00:51:26.119
it so so I guess like in PA and New Jersey,

888
00:51:26.159 --> 00:51:29.960
there's there's natural gas lines that run like from fracking

889
00:51:30.639 --> 00:51:33.719
and like so they almost they almost serve as like

890
00:51:33.800 --> 00:51:37.760
power lines. And there's been like a lot of like

891
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:42.400
the poored sightings you know, near near gas lines, gas

892
00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:45.679
line clearings, and so there was a gentleman who was

893
00:51:45.679 --> 00:51:49.360
like riding a bicycle and I just wanted to mimic that,

894
00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:52.199
so I I just like strapped a camera like onto

895
00:51:52.280 --> 00:51:54.800
my bike, and you know, I was riding along and

896
00:51:55.599 --> 00:51:58.360
I didn't have I didn't I didn't have any experiences there,

897
00:51:58.400 --> 00:52:01.239
but I did have. So I was in it's called

898
00:52:01.280 --> 00:52:03.960
Stokes State Forest, which is just south of high Point

899
00:52:04.000 --> 00:52:07.679
State Park. And you know, more recently, I find I

900
00:52:07.719 --> 00:52:10.920
finally I finally started wood doing wood knocks, but because

901
00:52:11.480 --> 00:52:13.559
it like saves me a lot of walking, saves me

902
00:52:13.599 --> 00:52:16.239
a lot of like I feel like if there's any

903
00:52:16.239 --> 00:52:19.400
way of like maybe tricking the species into responding, Like

904
00:52:19.440 --> 00:52:22.480
I feel like, you know, like a wood knock is

905
00:52:22.800 --> 00:52:25.800
kind of anomenous, anonymous, whereas like if you're doing like

906
00:52:25.840 --> 00:52:29.079
a big foot, how it like, yeah, they can like

907
00:52:29.199 --> 00:52:31.840
they can. I feel like they can like understand the

908
00:52:31.880 --> 00:52:36.199
different difference in your vocal cords. And so I so

909
00:52:36.280 --> 00:52:38.199
I did like a I did like a just like

910
00:52:38.199 --> 00:52:41.519
a like just one or two knocks, and I just

911
00:52:41.639 --> 00:52:44.679
I had this like it was there's nobody, there's no

912
00:52:44.679 --> 00:52:46.360
one else in as far ast like I try and

913
00:52:46.440 --> 00:52:48.960
I always try and go to like State Parks on

914
00:52:49.039 --> 00:52:51.480
like a Tuesday or like a Wednesday, when there's like

915
00:52:51.800 --> 00:52:54.480
nobody there. I think I saw like one, one or

916
00:52:54.480 --> 00:53:00.079
two cars further down, which you know, these fishermen, and

917
00:53:01.320 --> 00:53:03.800
I had just this like I don't know how to

918
00:53:03.800 --> 00:53:05.440
describe it, but it was like a it was like

919
00:53:05.480 --> 00:53:08.559
a hellish like a hellish scream that like that came

920
00:53:09.559 --> 00:53:12.159
that came through like the forest, and it just it

921
00:53:12.239 --> 00:53:15.559
just sounded so like just so unnatural, you know, and

922
00:53:15.639 --> 00:53:19.119
like like just no, just it just didn't seem like

923
00:53:19.119 --> 00:53:23.519
something like a human, like a human could produce. And

924
00:53:23.559 --> 00:53:25.960
then also when I was in del work at National

925
00:53:26.000 --> 00:53:29.920
Recreation Area a little bit further south, that's when I've

926
00:53:29.960 --> 00:53:32.639
come with like I went there it was like God,

927
00:53:32.679 --> 00:53:35.119
it was like maybe a March or April, and it

928
00:53:35.239 --> 00:53:37.159
just snowed and so not to many people were there,

929
00:53:37.199 --> 00:53:39.079
and I think I had like I had my I've

930
00:53:39.760 --> 00:53:42.760
like kind of like snowshoes just to you kind of

931
00:53:42.960 --> 00:53:46.239
hike through kind of snowy areas. And I came across

932
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:49.480
like there was someone had discarded their pants there, like

933
00:53:49.639 --> 00:53:52.280
you know, at like fifteen hundred feet, Like it was

934
00:53:52.400 --> 00:53:56.599
just real, like real, real scary stuff come across somewhere.

935
00:53:56.920 --> 00:53:58.639
I was done when I saw that. I just I

936
00:53:58.719 --> 00:54:01.679
just came back down because you know, especially like during

937
00:54:01.920 --> 00:54:04.800
you know, more like winter months when there's nobody out there.

938
00:54:05.280 --> 00:54:09.800
I mean, you know, it can it's it's one of

939
00:54:09.800 --> 00:54:11.679
the things where you know, when you go in the woods,

940
00:54:11.719 --> 00:54:15.440
like you have to you just have to be have

941
00:54:15.559 --> 00:54:18.559
your wits about you, and you know, it was it

942
00:54:18.599 --> 00:54:23.320
was really disturbing to find to find that I found

943
00:54:24.119 --> 00:54:28.000
even also a National Gap Recreation Area. There's actually like

944
00:54:28.039 --> 00:54:32.480
on the PA side, so it's the doll Or Gat

945
00:54:32.559 --> 00:54:35.239
National Recreation Area. It's on it's in PA and New

946
00:54:35.320 --> 00:54:38.679
Jersey and it kind of straddles the northern northern part

947
00:54:38.719 --> 00:54:41.639
of the Delaware River there, and like I came across

948
00:54:41.719 --> 00:54:43.920
like it was like you know, it was like April

949
00:54:44.039 --> 00:54:47.480
or something, and like something had killed and gutted a

950
00:54:47.519 --> 00:54:50.679
deer like off the trail. I mean, there's was there

951
00:54:50.760 --> 00:54:55.320
was a report setting like along that area like years ago,

952
00:54:55.559 --> 00:54:59.920
like truckers like used to like see you know they

953
00:55:00.079 --> 00:55:02.079
foot like you know by the side of the road

954
00:55:02.079 --> 00:55:04.840
at night time, like a family of bigfoot. So I

955
00:55:04.880 --> 00:55:06.519
definitely I definitely had to go to that area and

956
00:55:06.559 --> 00:55:10.920
try and check that out. You know, New Jersey's weird

957
00:55:10.960 --> 00:55:13.119
because it has like a lob of these like county

958
00:55:13.639 --> 00:55:17.159
and the state parks that are they're really like ginormous.

959
00:55:17.239 --> 00:55:20.519
Like there's the the Mainland Dickerson Park and I had

960
00:55:20.519 --> 00:55:23.880
a response back to a wood knock there, and you

961
00:55:23.880 --> 00:55:25.400
know it's it's not even like a state park, but

962
00:55:25.559 --> 00:55:27.880
I believe it's actually a county park, and so it's

963
00:55:27.960 --> 00:55:33.000
like really it's really like unvisited and it's near the

964
00:55:33.280 --> 00:55:37.199
Picotine Arsenal where all the beave it's all like the

965
00:55:37.280 --> 00:55:41.320
drone sightings were like you know, like last year, and

966
00:55:41.559 --> 00:55:43.800
like so it's it's like a real, like really really

967
00:55:43.800 --> 00:55:48.079
weird area. And so I actually had like a I

968
00:55:48.119 --> 00:55:50.280
had a response like to to a wood knock in

969
00:55:50.320 --> 00:55:53.440
the area, and I remember like there was there's definitely

970
00:55:53.480 --> 00:55:55.880
like an area that was like it's more like a

971
00:55:55.880 --> 00:55:59.400
brush kind of area that's like further further out, and

972
00:55:59.519 --> 00:56:02.480
like you know, I always trying to like be apprehensive

973
00:56:02.480 --> 00:56:05.039
in those areas because you know, if there's a bear,

974
00:56:05.119 --> 00:56:08.039
if it's like April or whatever, late March. I think

975
00:56:08.119 --> 00:56:13.960
the bears I saw like at you know, near near

976
00:56:14.079 --> 00:56:15.920
you know where that saying was at that restaurant that

977
00:56:16.079 --> 00:56:18.880
was I saw there was actually it was like a

978
00:56:18.920 --> 00:56:20.760
mama bear with like two cubs. And this was like

979
00:56:20.920 --> 00:56:24.239
early March, so bears, bears were even getting out like

980
00:56:24.280 --> 00:56:26.480
in early March like in this area. I guess it

981
00:56:26.599 --> 00:56:29.119
just has to do with a lot of like the

982
00:56:29.119 --> 00:56:31.960
temperature and if it's you know, kind of like safe

983
00:56:31.960 --> 00:56:36.320
to get out. And I guess another you know, real

984
00:56:36.760 --> 00:56:39.159
at least in New Jersey, another area that's gotten like

985
00:56:39.280 --> 00:56:43.079
really like crazy in terms of uh, you know, wildness areas.

986
00:56:43.079 --> 00:56:46.920
It's called like the Ramapo Ramapo Valley and it's like

987
00:56:46.960 --> 00:56:50.440
a large once again, it's like basically two large county

988
00:56:50.480 --> 00:56:53.039
parks that combined to like almost like five or ten

989
00:56:53.079 --> 00:56:57.440
thousand acres, and there's been sightings up that way you

990
00:56:57.440 --> 00:57:01.039
know where you know, you know, someone's driving in a

991
00:57:01.079 --> 00:57:04.119
car and Yeah, they've they've had you know, sightings in

992
00:57:04.159 --> 00:57:08.440
that area'thing wrong with the Skyline drive, but yeah, even

993
00:57:08.480 --> 00:57:11.639
even going out there, it's like you're you realize, you're like, oh, man,

994
00:57:11.679 --> 00:57:15.800
like I'm in these areas and like you know, you

995
00:57:15.800 --> 00:57:17.920
you can you know see like the New York Skyline

996
00:57:17.960 --> 00:57:21.280
sometimes you know, from some of these mountains, and it

997
00:57:21.519 --> 00:57:24.079
just makes you realize, like how how quickly things get

998
00:57:24.159 --> 00:57:30.480
rural like in some of these areas And I guess

999
00:57:30.519 --> 00:57:34.119
just I'm just trying to get to New York, So

1000
00:57:34.519 --> 00:57:39.519
New York basically God, it's called so basically just across

1001
00:57:39.519 --> 00:57:43.079
the line, it's called Harriman State Park. And there's there's

1002
00:57:43.119 --> 00:57:45.960
been like it's called like it's like Seven Lakes Drive,

1003
00:57:46.559 --> 00:57:49.760
like it's like Tobago Lake, all those types of areas

1004
00:57:50.039 --> 00:57:54.280
through there, and there's been like multiple, multiple like sightings

1005
00:57:54.280 --> 00:57:58.480
through that area. And there's there's so many boulder fields

1006
00:57:58.519 --> 00:58:01.320
and like I totally I'm stood how like you know,

1007
00:58:01.360 --> 00:58:04.519
somebody could somebody could come across, you know, some type

1008
00:58:04.559 --> 00:58:07.000
of some type of creature in this area just because

1009
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:10.440
it gets like so wild and really, like I said,

1010
00:58:10.440 --> 00:58:13.559
no nobody is out in these areas. Go a little

1011
00:58:13.559 --> 00:58:16.599
bit further north, So I went to it's called Lake

1012
00:58:17.079 --> 00:58:20.880
Lake Minnewaska State Park, and so basically it's it's not

1013
00:58:20.920 --> 00:58:22.440
really a part of the Cat Skills. It's kind of

1014
00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:26.039
its own thing. And there's these ice caverns there and

1015
00:58:26.480 --> 00:58:30.039
like like it's there was a sighting like at these

1016
00:58:30.039 --> 00:58:32.079
ice caverns like during I feel like a lot of

1017
00:58:32.079 --> 00:58:34.840
this stuff is just like happening during like the middle

1018
00:58:35.039 --> 00:58:37.840
like the middle of like winter in these areas. So

1019
00:58:37.880 --> 00:58:41.719
it's like, you know, like you know, are My theory

1020
00:58:41.800 --> 00:58:44.519
is like are they like are Bigfoot like migrating from

1021
00:58:44.559 --> 00:58:47.519
like the Adirondacks down to the cat Skills like during

1022
00:58:47.519 --> 00:58:50.039
the winter just to like avoid like the extreme like

1023
00:58:50.079 --> 00:58:52.840
cold temperatures like that. That's kind of my theory for

1024
00:58:52.920 --> 00:58:56.079
New York. But yeah, I mean, like even just like

1025
00:58:56.119 --> 00:58:59.360
when you look at into these valleys, it's just it's

1026
00:58:59.400 --> 00:59:02.199
just like it's it's like Pa, it's like endless. The

1027
00:59:02.239 --> 00:59:05.639
cat Skills and Adironics have that same feeling of like

1028
00:59:05.679 --> 00:59:09.920
North central Pa, where you know, there's this level of wildness.

1029
00:59:10.880 --> 00:59:13.360
I guess, you know, just a quick note about like

1030
00:59:13.559 --> 00:59:15.960
you know Pa, North Central Pa. Like a lot of

1031
00:59:15.960 --> 00:59:20.480
these like state forests that became you know, that became

1032
00:59:20.519 --> 00:59:24.320
state farest was basically because all the railroad industry they

1033
00:59:25.480 --> 00:59:27.199
destroyed like a lot of these forests back in the

1034
00:59:27.199 --> 00:59:29.559
early part of the twentieth century, and so the state

1035
00:59:29.760 --> 00:59:32.639
brought back these lands at Penning on a dollar. And now,

1036
00:59:32.760 --> 00:59:35.119
you know, one hundred and twenty five years later, you know,

1037
00:59:35.159 --> 00:59:39.239
a lot of these forests have grown back. And yeah,

1038
00:59:39.800 --> 00:59:41.760
I think it's it's kind of the same situation up

1039
00:59:41.880 --> 00:59:46.280
up there near the Cat Skills, and so yeah, I

1040
00:59:46.280 --> 00:59:48.760
started I started to shooting some videos like near the

1041
00:59:48.800 --> 00:59:52.960
Cat Skills, and you know, basically like the Cat Skills

1042
00:59:53.000 --> 00:59:55.400
is really the watershed for New York City. So you

1043
00:59:55.559 --> 00:59:58.079
go to you know these like different reservoirs up there,

1044
00:59:58.559 --> 01:00:02.320
and you'll see like New York City Police officers like

1045
01:00:02.519 --> 01:00:05.639
guarding you know, guarding these like reservoirs, and you're like

1046
01:00:05.639 --> 01:00:08.760
two hundred miles away from New York And so I

1047
01:00:08.800 --> 01:00:12.239
went to the Pacting Reservoir. There's like a it's called

1048
01:00:12.280 --> 01:00:16.559
like the Shaver Shaver Town Grill Trail, and like a

1049
01:00:16.559 --> 01:00:20.360
lot of like the the Catskills are known for like

1050
01:00:20.519 --> 01:00:25.679
canning products because like tanning leather products, because the hemlock

1051
01:00:25.719 --> 01:00:28.440
treats produced the Tanning So there's a lot there's like

1052
01:00:28.480 --> 01:00:30.360
a lot of abandoned towns that like used to be

1053
01:00:30.559 --> 01:00:34.239
just like tanneries. And so when I was going off

1054
01:00:34.239 --> 01:00:37.719
this trail, like you know, like once again, I'm I'm

1055
01:00:37.760 --> 01:00:40.880
I'm along on a trail by myself, and like this

1056
01:00:41.320 --> 01:00:45.639
like stick just comes like flying flying through the forest.

1057
01:00:45.679 --> 01:00:47.280
Not a rock. It was it was like a branch,

1058
01:00:47.800 --> 01:00:51.440
like something through a branch, and I just I just

1059
01:00:51.639 --> 01:00:54.280
I just headed out because it was like it was crazy.

1060
01:00:56.039 --> 01:00:58.119
I guess going a little bit like going a little

1061
01:00:58.119 --> 01:01:01.880
bit further north. There's actually a legend in the cat

1062
01:01:01.920 --> 01:01:06.119
Skills of the Grahamsville gorilla, and that was like basically

1063
01:01:06.159 --> 01:01:09.800
just known as like an escape primate. They think, yeah,

1064
01:01:09.960 --> 01:01:11.639
they think, like I said, they think it's more of

1065
01:01:11.719 --> 01:01:14.119
it was more of like a you know of like

1066
01:01:14.159 --> 01:01:17.360
a of a mountain gorilla but from like a zoo

1067
01:01:17.679 --> 01:01:22.559
or from as a circus train. But basically with like

1068
01:01:22.599 --> 01:01:25.360
the Slide Slide Mountain wilderness up there, like you could

1069
01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:28.320
really like it's it's I think the cat Skills are

1070
01:01:28.360 --> 01:01:31.880
also they're also like half a million acres you know,

1071
01:01:31.960 --> 01:01:35.320
just kind of like an Allegheny National forest, and it's

1072
01:01:35.360 --> 01:01:38.519
it's real like my kind of my my target area

1073
01:01:38.599 --> 01:01:40.440
for the area is actually like New York. It's called

1074
01:01:40.639 --> 01:01:44.920
Gilboa and there's a little park there called mine Kill

1075
01:01:45.000 --> 01:01:48.599
State Park. And one thing I've I've been discovering is that,

1076
01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:50.360
like you know, I've been watching a lot of times

1077
01:01:50.400 --> 01:01:52.719
I'll just like I watch like a YouTube video it's

1078
01:01:52.760 --> 01:01:54.559
more of just like a hiking video just to like

1079
01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:58.719
you know kind of like just like get get like

1080
01:01:58.760 --> 01:02:01.800
an as semblance of the train kind of. And like

1081
01:02:02.039 --> 01:02:04.320
so there was this one gentleman who was hiking and

1082
01:02:04.360 --> 01:02:06.239
he was like he was like, oh my god, Like

1083
01:02:06.440 --> 01:02:10.679
you know, like I've seen like hiking videos that showed

1084
01:02:10.719 --> 01:02:13.519
like all the signs of like a classic like Bigfoot

1085
01:02:13.719 --> 01:02:17.480
like encounter, like if it's stalking people and they have

1086
01:02:17.679 --> 01:02:19.840
these people have nothing to do with like Bigfoot. They're

1087
01:02:19.880 --> 01:02:23.840
just like these like just these hiking like hiking trail videos,

1088
01:02:24.280 --> 01:02:29.079
and it really always blows my mind. And so I went.

1089
01:02:29.159 --> 01:02:32.480
I went to it's called Minekill State Park, and there's

1090
01:02:32.519 --> 01:02:35.760
plenty of like plenty of trails, plenty of you know,

1091
01:02:35.840 --> 01:02:41.199
things on that level for you know, really really getting lost.

1092
01:02:41.199 --> 01:02:43.599
And like I said, also with the Slide Mountain Wilderness.

1093
01:02:43.639 --> 01:02:46.880
It's it's it's like, you know, the Catskills actually get

1094
01:02:46.960 --> 01:02:51.000
up to like four forty four thousand feet, so you know,

1095
01:02:51.039 --> 01:02:54.000
it's a really rugged like in wild area for for

1096
01:02:54.159 --> 01:02:58.440
being on the East Coast. And I actually went to

1097
01:02:58.880 --> 01:03:01.920
I also went to the New York big Foot Conference,

1098
01:03:01.920 --> 01:03:05.960
which was in October, and you know, when I was

1099
01:03:06.039 --> 01:03:08.559
up there, like I shot up I shot a video

1100
01:03:09.239 --> 01:03:13.599
for just you know, like the southern southern terminus of

1101
01:03:13.639 --> 01:03:16.559
the Adirondacks. And I feel like, you know, there's other

1102
01:03:16.559 --> 01:03:19.079
people that kind of cover the Adirondacks because like they're

1103
01:03:19.880 --> 01:03:21.880
I think you can get you can fit the Grand Canyon,

1104
01:03:22.440 --> 01:03:29.559
Yellowstone like Glacier and like Glacier and like uh Yosemite

1105
01:03:29.679 --> 01:03:32.599
all in it. It's it's it's just such a vast area,

1106
01:03:32.800 --> 01:03:34.679
you know. So it's like I feel like I'm okay

1107
01:03:34.719 --> 01:03:37.320
with like where I'm where I'm at like more like

1108
01:03:37.400 --> 01:03:40.679
southernly in the mid Atlantic, and you know, and at

1109
01:03:40.679 --> 01:03:42.840
the big Foot conference, I saw, you know, like it

1110
01:03:42.920 --> 01:03:46.079
was it was incredible, like just you know, meeting like

1111
01:03:46.320 --> 01:03:49.000
you know, usually there's like I know, like the Ohio

1112
01:03:49.039 --> 01:03:52.000
big Foot conferences, like thirty thousand people or something. But

1113
01:03:52.199 --> 01:03:54.239
this one, there was only like a hundred people there,

1114
01:03:54.800 --> 01:03:58.039
and like, you know, I met like Ken Gerhart, you know,

1115
01:03:58.440 --> 01:04:04.559
Cliff Barrickman, Renee Hall holland you know doctor Sarmiento, Adam

1116
01:04:04.639 --> 01:04:08.519
Davies like and guys from like Squatches Housetts. So it's

1117
01:04:08.559 --> 01:04:11.079
just it was like a real surreal experience like at

1118
01:04:11.119 --> 01:04:14.719
this conference where there's only like one hundred people, and

1119
01:04:14.760 --> 01:04:17.280
you know, I had I had to pinch myself, you know,

1120
01:04:17.519 --> 01:04:21.679
just just kind of being in that crowd. And you know,

1121
01:04:21.760 --> 01:04:24.519
but I think I realized from that experience maybe the

1122
01:04:24.559 --> 01:04:27.960
Adirondacks are they're they're kind of like the Southern Auronics.

1123
01:04:27.960 --> 01:04:30.599
It's like my, you know, like Saratoga Springs, that's like my,

1124
01:04:31.679 --> 01:04:34.920
that's like my northern northern terminus for where you know,

1125
01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:39.079
I kind of do you know, sasquatch hunting. And I

1126
01:04:39.079 --> 01:04:41.519
also did a I also did a video in Long

1127
01:04:41.559 --> 01:04:45.800
Island too, because they've been uh like sightings of a

1128
01:04:45.840 --> 01:04:48.280
bigfoot in like you know, I think it's like a

1129
01:04:48.320 --> 01:04:50.800
what Whitman State Park, But I was a little bit

1130
01:04:50.840 --> 01:04:54.159
further north near like it's called Sagamore Hill, which is

1131
01:04:54.199 --> 01:04:58.400
like I think it was like Teddy Roosevelt's like summer home, correct,

1132
01:04:58.480 --> 01:05:01.440
and just just yeah, just just being in that area,

1133
01:05:02.239 --> 01:05:05.920
like you know, you like you see like either the

1134
01:05:06.000 --> 01:05:09.079
natural resources that are there, like the abundance of food,

1135
01:05:09.760 --> 01:05:14.039
and you know, it's really really mind blowing. And yeah,

1136
01:05:14.079 --> 01:05:17.360
so that's that's kind of that's that's been my experiences.

1137
01:05:17.400 --> 01:05:19.920
And I believe I'm gonna be heading to uh. I

1138
01:05:20.000 --> 01:05:24.719
finally got to shoot a video Allegheny National Forest soon enough,

1139
01:05:24.760 --> 01:05:28.559
because it's actually legal to it's legal to film in

1140
01:05:28.679 --> 01:05:31.719
national parks now, so yeah, you don't need like a

1141
01:05:31.920 --> 01:05:35.280
you don't need like a film film permit anymore. And

1142
01:05:35.360 --> 01:05:38.119
I'm actually looking to go to so near Alleghany. It's

1143
01:05:38.119 --> 01:05:43.159
called Cook's Farest and that's that's northwest PA. It's near

1144
01:05:43.239 --> 01:05:47.199
like the Forest County Bigfoot Festival and Cooks Fit County

1145
01:05:47.239 --> 01:05:50.960
Cook's Forrest as uh like it actually was an area

1146
01:05:51.000 --> 01:05:54.679
where two railroad companies couldn't decide like who owned the area.

1147
01:05:55.119 --> 01:05:58.760
So it's it's like what the original growth forests like

1148
01:05:58.880 --> 01:06:03.679
still left in PA. So that's that's been my that's

1149
01:06:03.719 --> 01:06:05.880
been my past couple of years, and it's been been

1150
01:06:05.960 --> 01:06:09.119
quite a quite a journey to just really you know,

1151
01:06:09.599 --> 01:06:13.480
come close to something that potentially, like though would people

1152
01:06:13.719 --> 01:06:18.320
you know may not have any like evidence or belief

1153
01:06:18.360 --> 01:06:20.920
in And I just I just like the idea of like,

1154
01:06:21.639 --> 01:06:25.360
you know, potentially finding some type of evidence for you know,

1155
01:06:25.480 --> 01:06:27.760
not only just like Bigfoot, but like any type of

1156
01:06:28.199 --> 01:06:32.079
you know, cryptozoological zoological species that like might you know,

1157
01:06:32.159 --> 01:06:33.159
still still exist.

1158
01:06:35.159 --> 01:06:38.679
It really is a fascinating channel in the fact that

1159
01:06:38.760 --> 01:06:42.400
the reason I I love it is that you do

1160
01:06:42.599 --> 01:06:45.599
hit a lot of the places you go to. I've

1161
01:06:45.639 --> 01:06:51.320
actually had interviews in those areas, so you know, we

1162
01:06:51.400 --> 01:06:53.639
talked about you know, you went and checked out swamp

1163
01:06:53.639 --> 01:06:56.480
Dogs area. Listeners that have been around for a while

1164
01:06:56.519 --> 01:06:59.599
will remember swamp Dog from New Jersey. But also I've

1165
01:06:59.639 --> 01:07:03.559
had plenty of interviews that have you know, talked about

1166
01:07:03.599 --> 01:07:08.760
Misha State Forest, Gilboa a few times, so that area

1167
01:07:09.239 --> 01:07:09.599
has a.

1168
01:07:09.559 --> 01:07:11.519
Lot of really crazy up there.

1169
01:07:11.679 --> 01:07:14.960
Yeah, So in the last few minutes we have I

1170
01:07:15.000 --> 01:07:18.000
actually wanted to talk to you so when you went

1171
01:07:18.119 --> 01:07:24.599
up to Gilboa from your perspective, you know, I'm sure

1172
01:07:24.639 --> 01:07:27.159
you've heard a few of the encounters and sightings in

1173
01:07:27.199 --> 01:07:30.519
that area. Is is that a pretty squatchy area up

1174
01:07:30.559 --> 01:07:31.320
there in Gilboa?

1175
01:07:32.599 --> 01:07:36.199
Yeah. And I say that because literally when I was

1176
01:07:36.239 --> 01:07:39.000
at the Minekill State Park, which is you know writ

1177
01:07:39.119 --> 01:07:42.800
and Gilboa there, there there was no one in the park.

1178
01:07:42.840 --> 01:07:46.159
There wasn't even the park ranger wasn't even in the park,

1179
01:07:46.800 --> 01:07:50.079
and like I was literally the only person there, and

1180
01:07:50.199 --> 01:07:54.079
a like a flock or whatever it is, a gaggle

1181
01:07:54.119 --> 01:07:57.760
of turkeys cut me off in the parking lot, which

1182
01:07:57.880 --> 01:08:01.039
just showed you, like how like crazy and rural, Like

1183
01:08:01.239 --> 01:08:04.079
I mean, you know, turkeys are like like I one

1184
01:08:04.119 --> 01:08:06.440
time I was going back from like I think it

1185
01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:10.360
was the Pipocting Reservoir and I took you know, another

1186
01:08:10.400 --> 01:08:12.440
experience is just like taking a lot of these old

1187
01:08:12.519 --> 01:08:15.599
logging roads and just like waiting just to go over

1188
01:08:15.639 --> 01:08:19.560
a cliff, you know, because they're just so like, you know, rickety,

1189
01:08:20.119 --> 01:08:23.840
and like you know, just just seeing like having a

1190
01:08:23.920 --> 01:08:26.039
you know, like a you know, a little flock of

1191
01:08:26.239 --> 01:08:28.800
you know, turkeys cutting me off in the state park.

1192
01:08:28.960 --> 01:08:31.319
And you know, when I was there, I also saw

1193
01:08:31.359 --> 01:08:33.399
a bobcat by the side of the road. So it

1194
01:08:33.479 --> 01:08:35.920
just shows you like, I mean, these are species that

1195
01:08:36.000 --> 01:08:40.079
like avoid like people at all costs. So you're, you know,

1196
01:08:40.119 --> 01:08:42.880
it's you're you're really like you're really out in the

1197
01:08:42.920 --> 01:08:45.399
middle of nowhere, you know, and there's just like there's

1198
01:08:45.439 --> 01:08:49.039
there's no there's just not even like even outside of

1199
01:08:49.119 --> 01:08:51.560
just like the state parks. Like if you're just like

1200
01:08:51.680 --> 01:08:55.800
in the area just as like a you know, like

1201
01:08:55.960 --> 01:08:59.640
living in there, Like it's all wooded, it's all thick woods.

1202
01:08:59.439 --> 01:09:02.359
It's it's it's like a jungle like when you when

1203
01:09:02.359 --> 01:09:13.600
you go to these areas.

1204
01:09:08.319 --> 01:09:11.199
Some wild stuff. Do you have any ideas for places

1205
01:09:11.600 --> 01:09:13.800
you want to hit in the future.

1206
01:09:14.800 --> 01:09:17.359
Yeah, so I I you know, like like I said,

1207
01:09:17.359 --> 01:09:19.439
I'm going to I'm definitely going to go to the

1208
01:09:20.159 --> 01:09:22.680
uh like Alleyan National, I'm going to go to the

1209
01:09:23.479 --> 01:09:26.479
it's called like the Cook Forest. Uh, you know, a

1210
01:09:26.479 --> 01:09:31.000
bigfoot festival and Marion Marionville, PA. And uh, I'm sorry,

1211
01:09:31.000 --> 01:09:33.600
I don't know. It's a just Forest County big Foot festival.

1212
01:09:33.880 --> 01:09:35.760
It's been it's been there a couple of years. And

1213
01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:38.960
you know now that like you you're able to I'm

1214
01:09:39.000 --> 01:09:43.079
able to film like an Alleghany Reservoir. I'm going to

1215
01:09:43.119 --> 01:09:46.039
go to that area and there's there's a lot of

1216
01:09:46.239 --> 01:09:49.239
a lot of settings around like the reservoir there. So

1217
01:09:49.319 --> 01:09:51.159
that's kind of like you know, I always try and

1218
01:09:51.359 --> 01:09:53.359
I always try and go near like bodies of water

1219
01:09:54.319 --> 01:09:55.960
just because I mean I feel like that's like the

1220
01:09:56.399 --> 01:09:59.439
most you know, kind of prominent area where these creatures

1221
01:09:59.520 --> 01:10:02.359
might be. And then you know, while I'm there mostly

1222
01:10:02.359 --> 01:10:05.159
going to go to the old Grouth Farce that's there.

1223
01:10:06.439 --> 01:10:10.319
I have another places. There's a basically like where I

1224
01:10:10.880 --> 01:10:13.439
you know, I shot my like my thunderbird and like

1225
01:10:13.960 --> 01:10:19.239
there was like the snow Snowshoe videos. It's like a

1226
01:10:19.239 --> 01:10:22.199
little park called Black Black Motion Anon State Park. So

1227
01:10:22.199 --> 01:10:24.199
I'm gonna be I'm gonna be filming a video there

1228
01:10:24.239 --> 01:10:29.000
pretty soon. And uh it's you know, it's these areas

1229
01:10:29.000 --> 01:10:32.000
are just wild. There's there's nobody out there, and especially

1230
01:10:32.000 --> 01:10:35.279
with the state game lands, like it gets really gets

1231
01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:38.159
really hairy, just because you know, three quarters of the year,

1232
01:10:38.720 --> 01:10:40.720
like there's you know and p A p A has

1233
01:10:40.760 --> 01:10:42.760
like you know, the one and a half million you

1234
01:10:42.800 --> 01:10:47.560
know acres of state game land and like basically for

1235
01:10:47.600 --> 01:10:51.119
three cores of the year, really nobody nobody cares, you know,

1236
01:10:51.399 --> 01:10:54.199
or they're just they're primarily for recreation use. They're not

1237
01:10:54.239 --> 01:10:57.920
for hunting use. So it's it's not like they're just

1238
01:10:58.000 --> 01:11:01.439
strictly for you know, hunt it's it can also be

1239
01:11:01.600 --> 01:11:03.880
for you know, playing with trails, like you know, one

1240
01:11:03.880 --> 01:11:06.600
of the one of the state game lands has you know,

1241
01:11:06.600 --> 01:11:09.600
it's like has like tens of thousands of acres, you know,

1242
01:11:10.159 --> 01:11:14.279
So it's it's real like if like you could hide

1243
01:11:14.279 --> 01:11:17.199
a dinosaur like in these areas and like nobody like

1244
01:11:17.279 --> 01:11:22.199
nobody would ever know. Yeah, absolutely, and uh yeah, so

1245
01:11:22.199 --> 01:11:24.840
that's just that's that's been my experience in the past

1246
01:11:24.880 --> 01:11:27.520
couple of years. And you know, I'm, like I said,

1247
01:11:27.560 --> 01:11:29.680
with like the film background, I'm really I'm really doing

1248
01:11:29.680 --> 01:11:33.039
my best to just properly hopefully just get some type

1249
01:11:33.039 --> 01:11:36.520
of some type of footage or something, just because like

1250
01:11:36.760 --> 01:11:42.319
it's you know it, I feel like there's been such

1251
01:11:42.399 --> 01:11:46.680
like momentum for something that happened that like it's it's

1252
01:11:46.720 --> 01:11:51.279
like it needs to like be solidified, to like really cemented,

1253
01:11:51.319 --> 01:11:55.800
to hopefully try and you know kind of uh possibly

1254
01:11:56.479 --> 01:11:59.840
you know, have this have this species you know recognized,

1255
01:12:00.159 --> 01:12:02.720
even you know, if if I get like a like

1256
01:12:02.760 --> 01:12:06.159
some footage or something, you know, then getting having like

1257
01:12:06.199 --> 01:12:09.239
a proper like a proper scientist like come out to

1258
01:12:09.239 --> 01:12:12.439
the field and you know examine these areas you know,

1259
01:12:12.479 --> 01:12:16.359
hopefully you know, being able to like just just get

1260
01:12:16.399 --> 01:12:19.800
some type of like real like proper scientific, you know,

1261
01:12:19.960 --> 01:12:23.560
recognition of of what's going on, because like because because

1262
01:12:23.560 --> 01:12:27.920
something's going on, you know, and I think I think

1263
01:12:27.920 --> 01:12:31.439
it'll it'll really just give give credence to like all

1264
01:12:31.479 --> 01:12:34.840
the people, you know, Like I mean, I guess, you know, well,

1265
01:12:34.880 --> 01:12:38.319
my my strategies for really you know kind of you know,

1266
01:12:38.359 --> 01:12:40.760
searching for these creatures comes from like John Green, where

1267
01:12:40.800 --> 01:12:42.840
he was like he was like, you know, just kind

1268
01:12:42.840 --> 01:12:45.920
of like stick to like a certain area, right, like

1269
01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:49.199
don't like don't go all. I feel like if I

1270
01:12:49.239 --> 01:12:52.319
were to go to Alaska or something, I feel like

1271
01:12:52.359 --> 01:12:54.439
I would have I would land into like an alien

1272
01:12:54.479 --> 01:12:57.079
world of like trying to understand like I don't know

1273
01:12:57.119 --> 01:12:59.399
the terrain, you know. But I feel like when I

1274
01:12:59.439 --> 01:13:01.640
go out to into like the mid Atlantic region, like

1275
01:13:01.680 --> 01:13:04.720
a PA in New York, like I know, like I

1276
01:13:04.840 --> 01:13:08.000
know the forest, and I know I know what's supposed

1277
01:13:08.000 --> 01:13:10.479
to be there and what's not. You know, So just

1278
01:13:10.520 --> 01:13:13.399
by in terms of like you know, process of elimination,

1279
01:13:13.640 --> 01:13:17.640
I can really potentially you kind of kind of discover,

1280
01:13:17.840 --> 01:13:19.319
you know, what may or may not be there.

1281
01:13:20.159 --> 01:13:23.359
Yeah, absolutely, I mean that reminds me of Lyle Blackburn

1282
01:13:23.439 --> 01:13:28.920
told me once become the person who's the expert for

1283
01:13:29.000 --> 01:13:31.119
the weird stuff in your area because no one else

1284
01:13:31.199 --> 01:13:33.439
is going to do it. Greg, thank you so much

1290
01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:53.479
can see for yourself through the video what the area

1291
01:13:53.720 --> 01:13:56.640
was like where you've heard the encounters on this show,

1292
01:13:56.720 --> 01:13:59.520
which is pretty cool. And we'll definitely have to keep

1293
01:13:59.560 --> 01:14:01.640

1294
01:14:01.640 --> 01:14:03.800
the future. Thanks for coming on it.

1295
01:14:04.199 --> 01:14:06.960
Yeah, thank you, Jeremiah, like for having me so much. Yeah,

1296
01:14:07.119 --> 01:14:09.439
with my channel, I just try and I try and

1297
01:14:09.479 --> 01:14:12.000
have like a first person experience of things, and like

1298
01:14:12.039 --> 01:14:13.840
if I see Bigfoot for the first time, like I

1299
01:14:13.880 --> 01:14:17.399
want my audience to see Bigfoot. So that's that's my aspiration.

1300
01:14:17.560 --> 01:14:20.680
Hopefully one day, you know, when when I catch the

1301
01:14:20.720 --> 01:14:23.600
image of it, like everyone will all see it at

1302
01:14:23.600 --> 01:14:25.960
the same time, you know, and that's the I feel

1303
01:14:25.960 --> 01:14:28.920
like that's like the joy of like the filmmaking. You know,

1304
01:14:29.720 --> 01:14:30.279
I love that.

1305
01:14:30.439 --> 01:14:32.199
I love that good stuff. Man, Thank you?

1306
01:14:33.319 --> 01:14:34.920
All right, sir, all right, you have a good day.

1307
01:14:35.359 --> 01:14:38.359
Have you ever heard all the accounts of bigfoot activity

1308
01:14:38.439 --> 01:14:41.640
around Oakridge, Oregon? And you think to yourself, Man, I

1309
01:14:41.680 --> 01:14:44.520
would love to get out in those woods and experience

1310
01:14:44.560 --> 01:14:49.119
it for myself. Well, guess what this year you can

1311
01:14:49.760 --> 01:14:52.720
If this is interesting to you, stay tuned because it's

1312
01:14:52.760 --> 01:14:57.680
pretty cool. Sasquatch Summer Fest is coming up July tenth

1313
01:14:57.760 --> 01:15:01.720
through the eleventh, twenty twenty six. It's gonna be even

1314
01:15:01.800 --> 01:15:05.640
better than the previous year's reason number one, I'll be

1315
01:15:05.680 --> 01:15:08.760
one of the speakers. It's gonna be wild. I'll probably

1316
01:15:09.960 --> 01:15:14.079
I'll say this. There may be stuff you haven't heard

1317
01:15:14.199 --> 01:15:20.239
anywhere else, because let's just say sometimes it's well, you

1318
01:15:20.399 --> 01:15:22.479
just got to be there. We'll leave it that more

1319
01:15:22.520 --> 01:15:25.239
about looking for Bigfoot in the Oakridge Woods. Now check

1320
01:15:25.239 --> 01:15:30.840
this out. You may know Jason Kenzie from his documentary

1321
01:15:30.880 --> 01:15:35.199
series Searching for Sasquatch. Well, this year you can not

1322
01:15:35.399 --> 01:15:39.479
only go to the festival, but you can also sign

1323
01:15:39.560 --> 01:15:46.399
up for a track Deep in the Wild Forest outside

1324
01:15:46.439 --> 01:15:51.119
of Oakridge with Jason Kenzie to the Bigfoot spots to

1325
01:15:51.239 --> 01:15:54.800
look for Bigfoot. There's only eight spots to sign up

1326
01:15:54.840 --> 01:15:58.920
for this, and yes, this will also be filmed for

1327
01:15:59.079 --> 01:16:02.119
the next chapter in his documentary series, which is Searching

1328
01:16:02.119 --> 01:16:04.680
for Sasquatch. This is a once in a lifetime deal.

1329
01:16:04.880 --> 01:16:07.920
It's just trust it's going to be a wild, wild experience.

1330
01:16:09.560 --> 01:16:13.000

1336

help with the costs there. Appreciate that, Priscilla. I hope

1337
01:16:40.039 --> 01:16:43.319
to see you at the booth in Oakridge this year.

1338
01:16:44.399 --> 01:16:46.680
We can talk about your encounter. Was able to talk

1339
01:16:46.720 --> 01:16:49.399
to so many people last year and the year before.

1340
01:16:50.239 --> 01:16:53.159
It is an incredible time. You're not going to want

1341
01:16:53.199 --> 01:16:57.479
to miss it, and I'll see you there. Before we

1342
01:16:57.520 --> 01:16:59.840
wrap this episode, I want to say something directly to

1343
01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:03.399
a very specific group of listeners. If you're in the military,

1344
01:17:03.840 --> 01:17:07.159
any branch or forces, and if you've seen something that

1345
01:17:07.239 --> 01:17:10.079
no one can explain. Or if you're a National park

1346
01:17:10.159 --> 01:17:13.359
ranger or forestry worker who's been told to stay quiet,

1347
01:17:14.079 --> 01:17:17.239
or if you're a pilot who's seen something strange down

1348
01:17:17.279 --> 01:17:19.840
on the ground, or if you're with the FBI a

1349
01:17:19.880 --> 01:17:23.800
federal agency, or working intelligence and you stumbled upon something

1350
01:17:23.840 --> 01:17:26.800
you're not allowed to talk about. And if you're a firefighter,

1351
01:17:26.920 --> 01:17:30.560
paramedic or search and rescue responder who's heard screams or

1352
01:17:30.600 --> 01:17:33.520
found tracks that didn't make sense. If you're in the

1353
01:17:33.560 --> 01:17:37.600
logging industry on a remote oil field, or a trucker

1354
01:17:37.720 --> 01:17:41.520
with government contracts and you've had something happen that you've

1355
01:17:41.560 --> 01:17:44.520
never told a soul. And if you're a biologist, a

1356
01:17:44.520 --> 01:17:48.439
wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under contract who has

1357
01:17:48.479 --> 01:17:52.279
found evidence you're not allowed to report. If you're a pastor,

1358
01:17:52.319 --> 01:17:55.600
a missionary, or someone on a spiritual retreat and you

1359
01:17:55.680 --> 01:17:58.560
saw something that shook your faith, or if you work

1360
01:17:58.600 --> 01:18:02.800
in the shadows, CIA, NSA, or anything with clearance and

1361
01:18:02.840 --> 01:18:06.640
you've seen what the public hasn't, then I want to

1362
01:18:06.680 --> 01:18:11.680
talk to you, even if it's anonymous. You can reach

1363
01:18:11.760 --> 01:18:15.560
me at Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com. The world

1364
01:18:15.600 --> 01:18:18.239
needs to hear what you've been forced to carry alone,

1365
01:18:19.600 --> 01:18:24.279
and you're not alone. You've got the story, We've got

1366
01:18:24.279 --> 01:18:27.960

encounter we share reminds us that the world is bigger

1369
01:18:33.560 --> 01:18:36.399
and stranger than we think, and that the truth is

1370
01:18:36.439 --> 01:18:39.560
often hiding just beyond the tree line. If you enjoyed
