In this episode, we explore a series of firsthand encounters shared live by witnesses from across the country, each rooted deeply in place and personal experience. From a late-night ride on a rail-to-trail outside Charlotte, to firewood camps near Shiprock and the Four Corners region, the stories unfold with precise locations and unforgettable detail. Listeners are taken into dense Indiana forest at Yellowwood State Park, along remote hunting land in southwestern Louisiana, and into river corridors of South Carolina where nighttime activity escalated quickly. Field research and long-term exploration in the San Bernardino Mountains add another layer, shaped by years of tracks, photographs, and time spent on the land. 🗣️ Share Your Story Had a Bigfoot encounter or strange experience?

## Transcript

[0:00] Speaker 1: You're listening to Bigflat Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In
[0:03] Speaker 1: this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring
[0:05] Speaker 1: you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen
[0:08] Speaker 1: something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to
[0:12] Speaker 1: quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,
[0:16] Speaker 1: and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.
[0:20] Speaker 1: These are the voices of the people who've lived it.
[0:24] Speaker 1: To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that
[0:27] Speaker 1: just might change the way you see the woods forever.
[0:30] Speaker 1: So stay with us. Hey, Rob, how are you?
[0:32] Speaker 2: I'm good? How you doing?
[0:34] Speaker 1: Heye doing good? Go right ahead? All right? Okay.
[0:37] Speaker 2: So I live in Charlotte, North Carolina, and I was
[0:42] Speaker 2: on a rail to trail. This was probably five years
[0:48] Speaker 2: ago now, and I was a general manager for a
[0:53] Speaker 2: famous chicken company. And I closed the restaurant at about
[0:59] Speaker 2: one o'clock in the morning, and I was on the
[1:00] Speaker 2: rail to trail on my bicycle coming back home. The
[1:06] Speaker 2: trail was behind my house and I have a big
[1:09] Speaker 2: headlight on my bicycle. This was in the early spring,
[1:14] Speaker 2: and I had to stop because there were so many
[1:15] Speaker 2: little animals coming across the rail to trail, so I
[1:20] Speaker 2: waited and I waited, and the animals got bigger and bigger.
[1:23] Speaker 2: It's kind of funny because I'm thinking two by two
[1:28] Speaker 2: maybe maybe Noah's ark was out there somewhere, but that's
[1:32] Speaker 2: not what happened. Two deer came across the trail, and
[1:37] Speaker 2: then something else stepped out in front of me, probably
[1:41] Speaker 2: fifteen feet away, and it turned towards me. The only
[1:47] Speaker 2: thing it did was go who I froze. I was
[1:52] Speaker 2: white knuckling my handlebars on my bicycle and I didn't move.
[2:00] Speaker 2: And it stood there for about eight minutes, I think,
[2:04] Speaker 2: and then it just turned away from me and walked
[2:08] Speaker 2: into the woods nonchalantly like I didn't even exist. It
[2:12] Speaker 2: was about eight feet tall. I would say it's shoulders
[2:16] Speaker 2: were about three times the size of me, completely covered
[2:21] Speaker 2: in hair, smelled really bad, and it was definitely not
[2:25] Speaker 2: a bear. I've hiked probably five thousand miles in the
[2:29] Speaker 2: woods around my house and the Appalachian Trail, and I've
[2:33] Speaker 2: never seen anything close to what this was. And that's
[2:42] Speaker 2: my story.
[2:44] Speaker 1: That is intense. My friend, what year did you say
[2:51] Speaker 1: that was? Again?
[2:52] Speaker 2: It was about five years ago.
[2:53] Speaker 1: Now five years ago. Okay, so you you were biking
[3:04] Speaker 1: your fifteen feet away from it. Yep, so you're getting
[3:07] Speaker 1: closer to it as it comes out. Or did you stopped?
[3:10] Speaker 2: I stopped because of all the animals that were crossing
[3:14] Speaker 2: in front of the trail in front of me. That
[3:15] Speaker 2: made me stop. And then it just stepped out onto
[3:21] Speaker 2: the trail. It's one of those that they they take
[3:26] Speaker 2: the rails out from an old railroad and they pave
[3:29] Speaker 2: it for people to bicycle and walk.
[3:36] Speaker 1: Gotcha.
[3:37] Speaker 2: And it was the scariest experience I've ever had in
[3:40] Speaker 2: my life.
[3:44] Speaker 1: Were you able to see its face at all?
[3:46] Speaker 2: Or oh yeah, yeah. It looked very similar to the
[3:49] Speaker 2: picture behind you, but not quite as Stark figured. They
[3:55] Speaker 2: were more soft featured. But it was definitely a man
[3:59] Speaker 2: or a male. Let me say that.
[4:05] Speaker 1: And your saying that just by other features you can
[4:07] Speaker 1: see on the figure.
[4:10] Speaker 2: Well, it didn't have like any breasts, let me say that.
[4:14] Speaker 1: Okay, gotcha? Okay, got it?
[4:16] Speaker 2: So I'm assuming it was a male. But it smelled
[4:18] Speaker 2: really bad, and it was really big, and it only
[4:22] Speaker 2: did the one huff but wasn't aggressive, And I figured
[4:28] Speaker 2: that was like, don't approach me, kind of thing and
[4:33] Speaker 2: then it just turned away and nonchalantly walked into the woods.
[4:35] Speaker 2: I never saw anything like it again, and I traveled
[4:40] Speaker 2: through there quite a bit. I went into the woods
[4:44] Speaker 2: to see if there were any footprints or anything at all,
[4:46] Speaker 2: and I couldn't find any evidence at all.
[4:49] Speaker 3: So wow.
[4:51] Speaker 2: And I know I was extremely sober, I wasn't drunk,
[4:56] Speaker 2: I wasn't smoking anything crazy. I was a general manager
[4:59] Speaker 2: for the this company, and I closed the restaurant that
[5:03] Speaker 2: night and then came home after that.
[5:12] Speaker 1: So wow. Is this a story that you've shared after
[5:15] Speaker 1: that or how did things go after this encounter for you?
[5:19] Speaker 2: Well, my daughter and I went out there and we
[5:21] Speaker 2: I shined animals out in the woods, but never saw
[5:26] Speaker 2: anything that big again. Nothing was ever that tall.
[5:31] Speaker 1: Okay, have you heard of any other sightings or encounters
[5:36] Speaker 1: in that same area?
[5:37] Speaker 2: Nothing at all. And I've talked to a lot of
[5:39] Speaker 2: people who go out there on the trail, a lot
[5:42] Speaker 2: of hikers that kind of thing. Interesting enough. Though. I
[5:49] Speaker 2: own a gourmet coffee trailer and I share the story
[5:52] Speaker 2: frequently with people, and they will give me encounters that
[5:56] Speaker 2: they've had that they can't figure out either that they
[5:58] Speaker 2: just have no idea. What it was saw it walking
[6:02] Speaker 2: on two legs, never saw it go down on all fours.
[6:07] Speaker 2: And I'm thinking other people have had sightings out there too.
[6:13] Speaker 1: Okay, so these are people from your area in Charlotte. Yes, oh, man,
[6:19] Speaker 1: that's awesome. You should start keeping a map or something
[6:22] Speaker 1: like that, marking it all down. That would be really interesting.
[6:25] Speaker 1: That's what I do. Yeah, yeah, that's cool man. Yeah,
[6:30] Speaker 1: I keep doing that. Then eventually you'll you're just become
[6:34] Speaker 1: known as the guy in the area that people need
[6:37] Speaker 1: to go to. And that's that's really really cool. Thank
[6:41] Speaker 1: you so much, Rob for coming up and for sharing
[6:44] Speaker 1: what you experienced around Charlotte.
[6:47] Speaker 2: It was amazing. I appreciate your time. Thanks.
[6:50] Speaker 1: That's awesome. You have a great nicer. Hey, Alroy, how's
[6:54] Speaker 1: it going. Okay, how are you awesome? Hey, thanks for
[6:58] Speaker 1: coming up. Thanks for coming up. Feel free to share
[7:01] Speaker 1: what happened to you.
[7:03] Speaker 4: Okay, it's just this happened probably like in two thousand
[7:08] Speaker 4: and ten or eleven. It's the same area where I
[7:12] Speaker 4: told you at the first one and ship brought New Mexico.
[7:17] Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that's right, Yes, thank you.
[7:20] Speaker 4: One is going towards Cortez Colorado, but there's a Mesa
[7:27] Speaker 4: Mesa farm road. But anyways, it's on the north side
[7:34] Speaker 4: and we're getting some woods. One time, those four of
[7:37] Speaker 4: us and we went out there at the Salwan River getting.
[7:43] Speaker 1: Some woods and.
[7:46] Speaker 4: One of my friends they hurt, they hurt some and
[7:49] Speaker 4: they they there's a big boulder. Somebody threw a big
[7:54] Speaker 4: boulder and the human being can't pick up that big boulder,
[7:57] Speaker 4: the one we saw, and we were like, what is that?
[8:02] Speaker 4: So my friend went over there to go walk a
[8:05] Speaker 4: little ways in the tree line area and we smelled
[8:11] Speaker 4: something real bad order and he told us to come over.
[8:15] Speaker 4: So we went over there and there was two bigfoots
[8:19] Speaker 4: and we froze and solid and we got scared, and
[8:23] Speaker 4: we left our chainsaws there. And it was towards the
[8:26] Speaker 4: evening time, probably like six seven o'clock in the evening time.
[8:30] Speaker 1: So we were.
[8:31] Speaker 4: Leaving, and when we were leaving, we stopped, like, oh,
[8:37] Speaker 4: our chainsaw because our chainsaw was very expensive. So we
[8:41] Speaker 4: turned around to go get our chainsaw and our acts,
[8:45] Speaker 4: you know, the chainsawn acts were missing, and those bigfoot
[8:49] Speaker 4: they're smart, they know how to use the axe. And
[8:55] Speaker 4: when we went back over there, the axe was missing,
[8:58] Speaker 4: but the chainsaw was there, so we got our chainsaw,
[9:04] Speaker 4: and then we started like we're on the main road
[9:08] Speaker 4: and like maybe we can cook something. So we're just
[9:11] Speaker 4: looking around make sure everybody's okay, and we started cooking,
[9:16] Speaker 4: and all of a sudden again it threw a big
[9:19] Speaker 4: tree stump and we some kind of growl and we
[9:24] Speaker 4: got scared and we left. The next day, we went
[9:30] Speaker 4: to that my friend's grandma and we told her, and
[9:34] Speaker 4: she's Navajo and she's traditional. She's so you guys better
[9:37] Speaker 4: not go over there. You know, then I throw witch
[9:40] Speaker 4: craft art do something to you and they're like okay.
[9:45] Speaker 4: So but we went back over there and we saw
[9:48] Speaker 4: some footprints footprint by like maybe thirteen to fourteen inches
[9:55] Speaker 4: long and probably like four inch wide, and we're like
[10:00] Speaker 4: what but we never found our axes, and then we're
[10:06] Speaker 4: like what shall we do? But we told the fishing
[10:08] Speaker 4: game warden, and the fishing game warden took a long time,
[10:13] Speaker 4: so we started like started investigating ourselfs and we went
[10:18] Speaker 4: to the woods and there was like a shade house
[10:22] Speaker 4: where Bigfoot put some branches and some leaves around it
[10:27] Speaker 4: for like a betting where he was laying down so
[10:34] Speaker 4: that was my experience, my second time I seen bigfoot.
[10:39] Speaker 4: So after that, I was back over there. But the
[10:43] Speaker 4: first one I told you about really scared me because
[10:46] Speaker 4: I've seen it about maybe fifty yards and I was
[10:49] Speaker 4: scared and terrified.
[10:52] Speaker 1: Absolutely. How close was the second experience.
[10:55] Speaker 4: Though, probably like a hundred uh.
[11:02] Speaker 1: Okay, one hundred meters.
[11:05] Speaker 5: Wow.
[11:07] Speaker 1: So yeah, that is very interesting.
[11:10] Speaker 4: And like they say, around ship Rock over in New Mexico,
[11:14] Speaker 4: there's a lot of bigfoot fightings.
[11:17] Speaker 1: There was a ton there's been a ton of people
[11:19] Speaker 1: that have come up the last week just about this
[11:22] Speaker 1: area ship Rock and and let's see what else four
[11:27] Speaker 1: corners of course, and have that whole whole area. There
[11:32] Speaker 1: was a lake, what was the lake Morgan Lakes. A
[11:36] Speaker 1: guy was up here a few nights ago talking about
[11:39] Speaker 1: that area. Yeah, yeah, he saw the Ozark howel Burn,
[11:43] Speaker 1: the Navajo howler over there. That was a wild, wild story.
[11:47] Speaker 4: Yeah, no doubt something that night. You know, we don't
[11:50] Speaker 4: know what it is. It sounds like a lady's screen.
[11:56] Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. Well, I I appreciate you coming up
[12:01] Speaker 1: and sharing your second encounter with us. Thank you so much, sir,
[12:07] Speaker 1: y Yeah, thank you.
[12:07] Speaker 4: Bye.
[12:12] Speaker 1: Hi Harry, Yes, how are you doing.
[12:14] Speaker 6: I'm good, thank you. So this passed OCCASSR. I went
[12:18] Speaker 6: camping with my daughter and we were in Yellowood State
[12:21] Speaker 6: Park and I think it's in Nashville, Indiana, and you know,
[12:26] Speaker 6: it's it's very thick woods there, and we set up
[12:30] Speaker 6: our tents and we went to bed, and in the
[12:32] Speaker 6: middle of the night, I think it was around two
[12:34] Speaker 6: in the morning, I woke up and I heard some
[12:36] Speaker 6: slamming on wood. It sounded like something was hitting trees,
[12:40] Speaker 6: and of course it scared us half to death. But
[12:43] Speaker 6: then the next part is what scared me the most.
[12:46] Speaker 6: Something sounded like it was sighing, like it was losing patience,
[12:50] Speaker 6: like when someone goes hum. And my daughter's like, Mom,
[12:55] Speaker 6: what is that. I'm like, you know, I don't know im.
[12:58] Speaker 6: You know, we live here in Indiana. I never hed
[13:00] Speaker 6: an animal do that in the woods. I don't think
[13:02] Speaker 6: coyotes do that. I've never heard of raccoon do that.
[13:06] Speaker 6: You know, we didn't know what it was and it
[13:08] Speaker 6: went on. But the strange thing about it is when
[13:10] Speaker 6: I heard that sound, we didn't hear any other sounds,
[13:14] Speaker 6: like kind of the crickets kind of shut up everything
[13:18] Speaker 6: else around us quieted out. The minute it hit dawned,
[13:22] Speaker 6: we started packing up. We were going to stay the
[13:24] Speaker 6: three nights. We made it that one night and we
[13:26] Speaker 6: left the next day. I told her, I can't handle this.
[13:31] Speaker 6: And the funny thing is that we went out there
[13:33] Speaker 6: and we talked about Bigfoot the whole time, like, oh,
[13:35] Speaker 6: what if we see Bigfoot? Because we watch all the
[13:37] Speaker 6: documentaries and you know, we get all excited about it.
[13:41] Speaker 6: But the minute it got dark, man, my feelings just
[13:44] Speaker 6: changed and I was like, it's dark to leave, so
[13:48] Speaker 6: we'll just make it through the night. And we did.
[13:50] Speaker 6: But you know, and we're not the type of people
[13:53] Speaker 6: that look for Boogeyman behind every branch or all this stuff.
[13:56] Speaker 6: But I'll never forget that. And that was just this
[14:00] Speaker 6: past October. So I don't I don't know. I mean, okay,
[14:04] Speaker 6: it could have been, but who knows. You know.
[14:08] Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. So if you if you go,
[14:11] Speaker 1: my website's big for Society podcast dot com, and there's
[14:14] Speaker 1: a sighting map there. And I have reports in Brown
[14:19] Speaker 1: County State Park. Yeah, story Indiana, like all around that
[14:25] Speaker 1: yellow Wood area. Yeah, I've talked to people there.
[14:29] Speaker 6: Yes, I've heard about them. Row Lake area. So I
[14:32] Speaker 6: want to go back, but she moved to another country.
[14:35] Speaker 6: You know, she's an adult. But I think I'm going
[14:38] Speaker 6: to ask my husband to come with me, or I'm
[14:40] Speaker 6: going to try to get some other ladies or something
[14:42] Speaker 6: to go with me. I'm definitely not going back by myself.
[14:46] Speaker 6: But yeah, it's it's exciting to know, but you know,
[14:50] Speaker 6: it also scared us half.
[14:51] Speaker 1: That's awesome. That's that's a really great story. Thank you
[14:57] Speaker 1: for sharing.
[14:58] Speaker 6: I just found on the FYP just looking for bigfoot
[15:00] Speaker 6: stuff and you just have to appear. So I've followed
[15:03] Speaker 6: your page, so thank you.
[15:05] Speaker 1: Oh, thank you so much. That's a great that's a
[15:07] Speaker 1: great thing. It's on the FYP. So yeah, well, good stuff.
[15:10] Speaker 1: Thank you for coming up in chatting.
[15:12] Speaker 6: Well, thank you. I'll keep listening.
[15:14] Speaker 1: Bye, all right, thank you. Hey Jay, how's it going, sir?
[15:20] Speaker 1: I don't hope.
[15:22] Speaker 7: Oh, thank you.
[15:23] Speaker 2: What I have to say?
[15:24] Speaker 4: I hope.
[15:24] Speaker 7: I don't put people to sleep, I do. I don't
[15:29] Speaker 7: know where are you broadcasting from.
[15:33] Speaker 1: I am out of Central Iowa.
[15:34] Speaker 7: Oh okay, yeah, you're like three hour two hours that's
[15:37] Speaker 7: Central time. Yeah, yeah, okay, Well I'm from Chicago originally,
[15:42] Speaker 7: but I live in Sokel Now. I live near the
[15:45] Speaker 7: Sam Dan Bernardino Mountains. I could see him from my
[15:48] Speaker 7: front you know, yard the mountains, and I go in
[15:51] Speaker 7: there all the time. It's like eight miles. I get
[15:54] Speaker 7: to the Deep Creek trailhead and I've just been just exploring.
[15:58] Speaker 7: I did see a dog man when I was to Hatchepee.
[16:01] Speaker 7: I was on the fifty eight heading east.
[16:04] Speaker 5: I was right near the.
[16:07] Speaker 7: Crest of the mountains and I looked down and I
[16:09] Speaker 7: saw this thing look drinking on all fours out of
[16:13] Speaker 7: a creek. I was in a rental truck driving my
[16:16] Speaker 7: daughter back from San Francisco, and I only saw it
[16:20] Speaker 7: for like five six seven seconds, because I mean, I
[16:23] Speaker 7: didn't want to crash. If I were to do it over,
[16:26] Speaker 7: I would have pulled over and taken pictures. But you know,
[16:28] Speaker 7: you don't think of that. I'm shocked. I'm like, oh
[16:30] Speaker 7: my god, I can't believe I'm seeing this, because I
[16:33] Speaker 7: do write books about these things, and I was. I'm
[16:36] Speaker 7: blessed to say I could see it from a safe distance,
[16:38] Speaker 7: because these things are not necessarily something you want to get.
[16:42] Speaker 5: Too close to.
[16:44] Speaker 7: But anyways, where I live, I go down and I
[16:46] Speaker 7: explore the Pacific Crest Trail, which runs from South America
[16:50] Speaker 7: all the way up to Canada.
[16:52] Speaker 5: And I just walked not too far.
[16:54] Speaker 7: I walk around and I found during the fires, the
[16:57] Speaker 7: Line fire, which was September October twenty four, I think
[17:03] Speaker 7: I saw so many weird tracks I cannot tell you.
[17:06] Speaker 7: I've I wrote a book. I'm not trying to push
[17:09] Speaker 7: my book, by the way, but I took.
[17:12] Speaker 1: Pictures and I have to go up.
[17:13] Speaker 5: Well, it's just it's I just published.
[17:15] Speaker 7: It's called Images of Cryptids in their Tracks in the
[17:19] Speaker 7: San Bernardino Mountains, the Booker Chronicles, Volume three. I met
[17:22] Speaker 7: a guy out of Ohio, mister Black. He died a
[17:26] Speaker 7: couple years ago. But anyways, I found the weirdest prints.
[17:30] Speaker 7: And I found a huge big footprint leading up to
[17:36] Speaker 7: what I call the rock Bridge. I have a TikTok
[17:38] Speaker 7: channel and I show all this stuff on there. I
[17:41] Speaker 7: found a think of it like a bird foot or
[17:45] Speaker 7: whatever you call it. You know, three like thin I
[17:49] Speaker 7: don't even know what they're called, appendages, and a little
[17:52] Speaker 7: palm or something. I found one like that that was
[17:56] Speaker 7: like the size of like a size ten shoe. I
[17:59] Speaker 7: couldn't believe it. And it's in the book. I don't
[18:02] Speaker 7: even know what it is. I also found I little
[18:07] Speaker 7: doubt it's a couple dog man prints, and I went
[18:12] Speaker 7: just literally, okay, it was about we had a bunch
[18:16] Speaker 7: of rain about a month ago, and I went because,
[18:18] Speaker 7: you know, I figured I could walk around and you're
[18:20] Speaker 7: going to see Prince with all that rain. Because it
[18:23] Speaker 7: is a high desert and so it's the ground is
[18:26] Speaker 7: normally very hard. But I found a really deep I
[18:30] Speaker 7: mean like two to three inches recessed in the ground
[18:33] Speaker 7: print that was probably I think it was about sixteen
[18:36] Speaker 7: inches long seven inches wide. And I kind of freaked
[18:41] Speaker 7: me out because I tend to walk. I walk by myself.
[18:43] Speaker 7: I don't have anybody with me, and so when you're
[18:46] Speaker 7: out there, you know, you start, you know it is
[18:48] Speaker 7: you start, you start having those feelings. All of a sudden,
[18:51] Speaker 7: you realize it's quiet. But when I saw that print,
[18:54] Speaker 7: I said, this has got to be a big footprint.
[18:56] Speaker 7: There's no way unless there's some big man walking around barefoot.
[19:00] Speaker 7: It wasn't a foot, it wasn't a shoeprint. But it's
[19:05] Speaker 7: amazing what's out there. I have taken some images people
[19:10] Speaker 7: could question an image is subjective, but I have taken pictures.
[19:14] Speaker 7: I went with a friend of mine up to Cactus Flats,
[19:18] Speaker 7: which is just north of Big Bear along Highway eighteen
[19:22] Speaker 7: six thousand feet, and we found some tracks there and
[19:26] Speaker 7: he took a picture and I think it's a dog
[19:28] Speaker 7: man pump in the tree and it's in the book.
[19:31] Speaker 7: I blew it up, and I mean, it looks to
[19:33] Speaker 7: me like a pupp It's probably about, I don't know,
[19:35] Speaker 7: fifteen feet off the ground in this tree. And so
[19:39] Speaker 7: where I live there's dog man bigfoot. They're all over
[19:43] Speaker 7: the place. And I've interviewed people who've actually seen these things.
[19:47] Speaker 1: So and like I said, I saw a dog.
[19:49] Speaker 7: Man creature in April twenty twenty two that was into Hatchbe.
[19:53] Speaker 1: Have you talked to anyone over by Cresline or Lake Arrowhead?
[19:58] Speaker 7: No, you mean in terms of witnesses or yeah, yeah,
[20:03] Speaker 7: yeah no. But I know Crestline that famous that woman
[20:07] Speaker 7: that passed away took footage of that big foot up
[20:10] Speaker 7: in the tree. That Crestline is literally thirty minutes away
[20:14] Speaker 7: from me up the mountain. I have interview people. There's
[20:19] Speaker 7: a spot called dead Man's Point. It's where Highway eighteen
[20:23] Speaker 7: and Big Bear I'm sorry. Highway eighteen and Bear Valley
[20:26] Speaker 7: Road meet they intersect and there I've interviewed two people
[20:31] Speaker 7: that have seen dog man crossing this this this intersection.
[20:34] Speaker 7: I don't know why, and they're pretty credible witnesses. And
[20:38] Speaker 7: there's also been people have seen Bigfoot, you know, all
[20:43] Speaker 7: around the San Bernardino San Bernardino Mountains, which would be
[20:47] Speaker 7: between Lucerne Valley which is to the north and Big
[20:51] Speaker 7: Big Bear Lake which is to the south, but of
[20:53] Speaker 7: course up in the mountain. So it's it's pretty interesting.
[20:57] Speaker 7: I literally live, like you know, in an area where
[21:01] Speaker 7: they're they're they're here, so I find that interesting. Unfortunately,
[21:06] Speaker 7: I'm by myself. I haven't quite had I don't got
[21:10] Speaker 7: or have anybody that wants to go with me yet,
[21:13] Speaker 7: and so it is a little dicey. I'm a little
[21:15] Speaker 7: bit I'm a little bit nervous sometimes, but you know,
[21:18] Speaker 7: when I had when the antent is go up, I
[21:20] Speaker 7: get nervous, I leave, you know, I try to tap
[21:24] Speaker 7: into my instincts. In fact, on Monday, a couple of
[21:28] Speaker 7: days ago, I was out and I had this sudden
[21:32] Speaker 7: I know it sounds crazy, but I had this sud
[21:34] Speaker 7: I was walking through these two bushes and I had
[21:37] Speaker 7: this sudden feeling like stop, don't go any further, and
[21:41] Speaker 7: I'm looking around.
[21:42] Speaker 1: I don't see anything.
[21:43] Speaker 7: And mister Black taught me, you know, don't run back
[21:46] Speaker 7: out slowly, and that's what I did. And I got
[21:50] Speaker 7: back up on the trail because I was off the
[21:51] Speaker 7: Pacific Crest Trails just kind of walking around, and I
[21:55] Speaker 7: just I got out of there. So I try to
[21:58] Speaker 7: tap into my instincts, to be honest with you, when
[22:00] Speaker 7: I walked through the Pacific Crest Trail, my biggest fear
[22:03] Speaker 7: is really a rattlesnake. I don't want to get bit
[22:05] Speaker 7: by a rattlesnake, especially if I'm alone, and Mahabi Green,
[22:09] Speaker 7: you'll be dead in an hour, you know. And then
[22:11] Speaker 7: the other thing is I don't want to find a
[22:13] Speaker 7: dead body. And I have a couple of times experienced
[22:17] Speaker 7: the smell of death. It was they were dead animals,
[22:20] Speaker 7: but it's it's a very creepy feeling.
[22:23] Speaker 1: So oh boy, oh my goodness. Jim, your books, do
[22:28] Speaker 1: you have your the witnesses you've talked to, do you
[22:32] Speaker 1: have those in those books?
[22:34] Speaker 3: Well?
[22:36] Speaker 7: Yeah, the the the one called My Search for dog
[22:40] Speaker 7: Man I wrote that like five years ago. Yes, their
[22:44] Speaker 7: witnesses are in there. Uh, there's images. Mister Black who
[22:49] Speaker 7: passed away. He's from southwest Ohio and he lived on
[22:54] Speaker 7: a on a in an area right by Cincinnati where
[22:58] Speaker 7: it was just teeming with these things.
[23:00] Speaker 5: And he would send me.
[23:01] Speaker 7: He sent me all kinds of pictures and that would
[23:03] Speaker 7: be the Bigger Chronicles.
[23:05] Speaker 1: Volume two, Volume one was.
[23:07] Speaker 7: His diary that he sent to me. I still have it,
[23:11] Speaker 7: Volume two or these images and I and he talks
[23:14] Speaker 7: about how to deal with these creatures, you know, how
[23:17] Speaker 7: how the bigfoot in the dog man interact? How you know,
[23:21] Speaker 7: what do you do if you see a dog man?
[23:23] Speaker 7: When you do if you see a big foot, like
[23:24] Speaker 7: for example, you don't dare shoot at a big foot?
[23:27] Speaker 7: You got a war, he said, a dog man, you
[23:30] Speaker 7: shoot at it, it'll you know, eventually, you know, it'll
[23:33] Speaker 7: forget about it. But he said, unless you have to,
[23:36] Speaker 7: don't shoot at a big foot because they are they're
[23:38] Speaker 7: going to get revenge. They're not going to let you
[23:41] Speaker 7: get away with it.
[23:42] Speaker 5: That's what he That's what he taught.
[23:44] Speaker 7: Yes, that's what he talking is And he said they
[23:46] Speaker 7: they they a lot of times they are together. They
[23:49] Speaker 7: hunt together, you know, the dog man in the big footment.
[23:52] Speaker 3: Anyways, I go on and.
[23:54] Speaker 1: Is this this? This is the same guy that he
[23:57] Speaker 1: was on Sasquatch Chronicles a bit right.
[23:59] Speaker 5: He might have been.
[24:00] Speaker 7: I don't know. He was on Vic Kundiff's dog Man
[24:04] Speaker 7: Encounters radio.
[24:05] Speaker 1: A couple times. Okay, I think think he used the
[24:08] Speaker 1: name John.
[24:09] Speaker 7: But he was a great man. He's a Christian man
[24:12] Speaker 7: who was my friend. I mean, I was so sad.
[24:14] Speaker 7: I just talked to his widow about a month ago
[24:17] Speaker 7: and he passed away. He just just shocked me. But
[24:21] Speaker 7: he shared all this information with me, and I told
[24:24] Speaker 7: him we got to get this out there because he
[24:26] Speaker 7: lived with these creatures.
[24:27] Speaker 1: And so the Booger.
[24:29] Speaker 7: Chronicles, Volume one is just his diary of daily encounters,
[24:32] Speaker 7: and in volume two is him explaining how do you
[24:35] Speaker 7: live with these things? And he basically said, you know,
[24:37] Speaker 7: they're God's creatures. They're here, they're here to stay. You
[24:40] Speaker 7: got to learn to live with them, you know.
[24:42] Speaker 1: So wow, that's that's fascinating stuff.
[24:46] Speaker 8: Man.
[24:47] Speaker 1: I'll have to check out your books for sure. Jim,
[24:49] Speaker 1: thank you for coming up. Oh you're welcome.
[24:51] Speaker 7: Thanks for everything you do. It really helps you know,
[24:54] Speaker 7: it's all about research and getting the word out there
[24:57] Speaker 7: that this stuff is real.
[25:00] Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely. Man. Well you have a great rest, thank you.
[25:04] Speaker 1: You can hang out for a bit, thank you. How
[25:10] Speaker 1: are you doing, sir, Hey pretty good? Not too bad.
[25:13] Speaker 1: How are you doing?
[25:15] Speaker 9: Hey?
[25:15] Speaker 1: Doing great.
[25:16] Speaker 9: So let me tell you my story. It just happened recently.
[25:21] Speaker 9: It was actually in Louisiana. I don't know if And
[25:27] Speaker 9: it's kind of weird.
[25:30] Speaker 3: To be honest with you. I never really been much
[25:35] Speaker 3: a believed much of a of a believer, you know.
[25:37] Speaker 9: It's just kind of like been on in the back
[25:39] Speaker 9: of my mind kind of okay, yeah, big foot kind
[25:41] Speaker 9: of thing. You know, some people have seen him some
[25:44] Speaker 9: but uh, anyhow, I think I I went on a
[25:48] Speaker 9: hunting trip a few weeks ago and I was out
[25:53] Speaker 9: there in the tree stand by myself.
[25:56] Speaker 3: And the first day, man.
[25:58] Speaker 9: It was like I could hear these big tree branches
[26:03] Speaker 9: snapping right and I couldn't.
[26:05] Speaker 3: I could have sworn it was a deer.
[26:06] Speaker 9: So I was getting ready with my you know, with
[26:08] Speaker 9: my rifle, was getting ready to shoot, and then it
[26:10] Speaker 9: was just like it was eerie because like right after,
[26:14] Speaker 9: you know, I thought it was coming out of the woods.
[26:16] Speaker 9: It was like eerie silence, you know, and then after
[26:20] Speaker 9: that the bird started chirping, and I was like kind
[26:22] Speaker 9: of odd, you know, but I didn't think.
[26:24] Speaker 3: Much of it whatever, you know.
[26:28] Speaker 9: I went back back to camp the next day because
[26:33] Speaker 9: it was a two day trip. The next day, in
[26:34] Speaker 9: the evening, I went back out to the deer standing.
[26:37] Speaker 9: It was like, you know, our last, our last chance
[26:39] Speaker 9: to hunt. And I was out there and it was
[26:44] Speaker 9: the evening time, and again, you know, I started hearing
[26:48] Speaker 9: these tree branch like it sounded like some big sticks breaking,
[26:53] Speaker 9: and all of a sudden, it was kind of like
[26:56] Speaker 9: huge rocks hitting trees and they're like kind of reverber
[27:00] Speaker 9: it through the forest and I could almost feel it
[27:02] Speaker 9: in my body, you know, and I was like, what
[27:05] Speaker 9: is that, you know, So I you know, it was
[27:08] Speaker 9: it was getting dark already, and I'm you know, looking around,
[27:12] Speaker 9: and then all of a sudden, I saw something by
[27:14] Speaker 9: my deer feeder where the deer feeder was, and it
[27:19] Speaker 9: was like this it was probably I don't know, I
[27:22] Speaker 9: would say, maybe ten twelve feet tall, and but I
[27:28] Speaker 9: couldn't really make it out. So I put, you know,
[27:31] Speaker 9: I got the binoculars out and I looked at the
[27:33] Speaker 9: binoculars and I saw him.
[27:37] Speaker 3: He had like an eighth face, and I was like,
[27:39] Speaker 3: wait a minute, you.
[27:40] Speaker 9: Know, and then like I put the binoculars down and
[27:43] Speaker 9: then I put him back up and I could see him.
[27:46] Speaker 9: And at that moment, whenever I saw him, I was like,
[27:49] Speaker 9: this can't be.
[27:50] Speaker 3: I thought. I was like I was tripping, and I
[27:53] Speaker 3: was like, no way.
[27:54] Speaker 9: So then like I put the binoculars down and I
[27:56] Speaker 9: put the rifle up and I put the scope on them,
[27:59] Speaker 9: and I can see him clear as day. And I
[28:01] Speaker 9: was like but as soon as I put the scope
[28:03] Speaker 9: on him with my gun, it was like telepathically he
[28:08] Speaker 9: told me that he was like the guardian of that
[28:14] Speaker 9: section of the forest and then they were tired of
[28:16] Speaker 9: us killing the deer, and it was just telepathically I knew,
[28:21] Speaker 9: and like it was like telepathically I knew, and it
[28:24] Speaker 9: was like a younger version of Bigfoot, you know. I
[28:28] Speaker 9: would say, maybe I don't know what we would consider
[28:31] Speaker 9: maybe twenty years old, nineteen years old or something like that.
[28:35] Speaker 9: Telepathically I knew all these things. And I was at
[28:38] Speaker 9: that point I was just I kind of froze, you know,
[28:41] Speaker 9: I froze and I was just like, nobody's gonna believe me,
[28:45] Speaker 9: you know, and I was like no, and then I
[28:46] Speaker 9: was I still was like doubting myself.
[28:49] Speaker 3: I was like, no, this is not happening, Like this
[28:51] Speaker 3: is not.
[28:53] Speaker 9: So I took my phone out and I started like
[28:55] Speaker 9: trying to take a picture of it, and I captured
[28:58] Speaker 9: a picture, but you can just see like a you know,
[29:00] Speaker 9: like a black silhouette and it's just but at that
[29:05] Speaker 9: point it started getting like dark. So I put my right,
[29:08] Speaker 9: you know, I put my I was scared, you know,
[29:10] Speaker 9: I had like that chills going down my spine. And
[29:14] Speaker 9: he was just kind of like like telling me like
[29:18] Speaker 9: don't do it, you know, like just get out of
[29:20] Speaker 9: here kind of thing, you know, And it was it
[29:21] Speaker 9: was telepathically.
[29:22] Speaker 3: But I really don't know much about it.
[29:24] Speaker 9: You know, I don't know if I saw him or not,
[29:26] Speaker 9: to be honest, but I mean, to what, in my opinion,
[29:30] Speaker 9: it was.
[29:31] Speaker 1: Big for it. You know, dude, that is some that's
[29:38] Speaker 1: that's incredible. That just happened a few weeks ago. You said, yeah,
[29:40] Speaker 1: a few yeah, it was a Louisiana. You don't have
[29:48] Speaker 1: to answer if you don't want to. Was this around
[29:49] Speaker 1: Kasachi Kasachi. I don't even know where that's had to
[29:52] Speaker 1: be honest, it's uh, it's a it's a national forest.
[29:56] Speaker 9: Oh. I don't know if it was closer there, I
[29:59] Speaker 9: know it was. We're closer to Lake Charles. We were
[30:02] Speaker 9: maybe like.
[30:02] Speaker 3: An hour away from Lake Charles. It's a very remote
[30:05] Speaker 3: location out there.
[30:09] Speaker 9: It was out there and that that area, and yeah, man,
[30:14] Speaker 9: it was just it was just crazy. You know, I've
[30:18] Speaker 9: never witnessed anything like that, you know, It's just and
[30:22] Speaker 9: it was crazy because like the day before, I saw
[30:25] Speaker 9: what looked like kind of like a like a silhouette
[30:29] Speaker 9: going back and forth, like he was pacing, you know,
[30:32] Speaker 9: but I couldn't put two and two together.
[30:34] Speaker 3: And I was I was still like, nah, I'm tripping,
[30:36] Speaker 3: you know.
[30:36] Speaker 9: Maybe it's just some shadows from some birds, you know whatever.
[30:40] Speaker 3: And uh, I don't know.
[30:42] Speaker 9: After after I saw him and everything, it all came together.
[30:45] Speaker 9: It was like, oh, he was just pacing back and forth,
[30:47] Speaker 9: like I don't know, he didn't want me to kill any.
[30:50] Speaker 3: Deer or something.
[30:51] Speaker 1: I don't know how long How long in total would
[30:57] Speaker 1: you say you were able to look at look at
[30:59] Speaker 1: it his face through the scope.
[31:02] Speaker 3: Good, I would say two minutes maybe like he was
[31:09] Speaker 3: visible like two minutes.
[31:10] Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a long time, man. A lot of people
[31:16] Speaker 1: only get a few seconds. So do you remember any
[31:20] Speaker 1: specific details about what the face looked like. I mean,
[31:24] Speaker 1: if you're able to see it for like two minutes,
[31:27] Speaker 1: you know.
[31:28] Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was kind of like a It
[31:31] Speaker 9: reminded me more like of a like almost a rank atingish,
[31:37] Speaker 9: Like in my mind, it was like a rank atingish
[31:38] Speaker 9: but like ape looking, ape looking, but like the very
[31:43] Speaker 9: face was clear, no hair, but he had hair around that,
[31:47] Speaker 9: you know. But again he was like adult, like an adult,
[31:52] Speaker 9: you know, like a younger age. I would say, you know,
[31:55] Speaker 9: I don't know if that even makes sense, but it wasn't.
[31:58] Speaker 9: I knew it wasn't like an older Bigfoot. It was
[32:01] Speaker 9: kind of like a younger you know, would look like younger,
[32:06] Speaker 9: like a younger bro.
[32:09] Speaker 1: Well that's cool, man. I usually hear the Orangontan thing
[32:13] Speaker 1: from southeast Alaska, so that's kind of a new thing
[32:15] Speaker 1: to hear it from down where you're at. Did you
[32:20] Speaker 1: have any emotion?
[32:22] Speaker 9: Uh, emotion, I would say, to be honest, I didn't feel.
[32:26] Speaker 3: Threatened, Like I didn't feel threatened.
[32:28] Speaker 9: It was more just like like just don't like he
[32:35] Speaker 9: was more like, like I said, like more of a
[32:38] Speaker 9: guardian type.
[32:39] Speaker 3: You know. It was like just get out of here
[32:41] Speaker 3: kind of thing, you know.
[32:43] Speaker 1: Gotcha? Gotcha? Did you notice anything about the eyes of
[32:47] Speaker 1: color or what they looked like anything like that?
[32:50] Speaker 2: Oh?
[32:50] Speaker 9: Man, I I would say, I don't know, it's just
[32:56] Speaker 9: looking like dark brownish maybe, you know, just darker.
[33:00] Speaker 3: I know, it was darker like I said it was.
[33:01] Speaker 3: It was.
[33:04] Speaker 9: It was already dark. So it was in the evening.
[33:06] Speaker 9: It was an evening hunt, so it was already you know.
[33:09] Speaker 1: I gotcha. Yeah, Yeah, I got you. Gotcha. Well, man,
[33:12] Speaker 1: that is that is wild. Have you been back to
[33:14] Speaker 1: the area since then?
[33:16] Speaker 3: No? No, no, that that was the last time.
[33:18] Speaker 9: I mean, I caught a picture and then I showed
[33:19] Speaker 9: it because I was like, man, nobody's gonna believe me
[33:21] Speaker 9: about this, you know. And I was like, because like
[33:24] Speaker 9: other paranormal stuff has happened, you know, but like not
[33:28] Speaker 9: nothing with Bigfoot, you know, like spirit like spiritual stuff
[33:31] Speaker 9: has happened, but not this ever.
[33:33] Speaker 3: You know, it wasn't really much on my radar, to
[33:36] Speaker 3: be honest.
[33:37] Speaker 9: But the rocks whenever I heard the rocks pounding, the
[33:40] Speaker 9: like the trees were reverberated. That was like a very
[33:45] Speaker 9: distinct thing. I don't even know if that's a thing.
[33:48] Speaker 9: But and then there's the huge street branch is breaking.
[33:55] Speaker 9: So you got a picture of this thing, Uh, yeah,
[33:58] Speaker 9: I do. It's just blurry. It was like, man, it
[34:01] Speaker 9: was the craziest thing because like I.
[34:02] Speaker 3: Put my phone out.
[34:04] Speaker 9: I pulled my phone out and it was like, you know,
[34:06] Speaker 9: I was messing with the focus and everything, and then
[34:08] Speaker 9: like I got it to where it because on one
[34:10] Speaker 9: side I had two deer feeders out. The one on
[34:12] Speaker 9: the right side was there was still like a little
[34:15] Speaker 9: bit of daylight there you could still see like a
[34:17] Speaker 9: small bit, but the other one where he was at,
[34:20] Speaker 9: was darker.
[34:21] Speaker 3: So I pulled on.
[34:22] Speaker 9: My phone and like I've tried to focus to where
[34:24] Speaker 9: the clearer one was at, and I put it on him.
[34:27] Speaker 9: As soon as I put it on him, like my
[34:31] Speaker 9: phone setting has changed, and it was just blurry.
[34:33] Speaker 3: It was the craziest thing. I don't know.
[34:36] Speaker 1: Yep, No, I've heard that happening with happened with video cameras. Actually,
[34:43] Speaker 1: is that something where you would feel comfortable sending it
[34:47] Speaker 1: to my email to share it? I would love to
[34:49] Speaker 1: take a look at it. It was blurry. Yeah, absolutely, okay, cool,
[34:53] Speaker 1: awesome it is. Uh, it's big for society at gmail
[34:55] Speaker 1: dot com. And yeah, I love I'd love to see

[35:26] Speaker 1: You'd led that's extremely extremely interesting. Yeah, Irish, how are you?
[35:35] Speaker 10: Hell?
[35:38] Speaker 1: Hey, thanks for coming up to feel free to share
[35:41] Speaker 1: what you had to happen.
[35:43] Speaker 10: Yeah. I had an experience back in the late nineties.
[35:50] Speaker 8: Okay, well, when I was going to high school and
[35:54] Speaker 8: everything I was during or Graceman to sophomore year. I
[36:02] Speaker 8: was friends with someone and we always share fishing stories.
[36:07] Speaker 8: So we get to talking about fishing stories, and so
[36:14] Speaker 8: I decided to say, Hey, you're going fishing this weekend.
[36:18] Speaker 10: You want to come stay the weekend with me? Or
[36:25] Speaker 10: go stay.
[36:25] Speaker 8: The weekend with you, and yeah, sure, and he has
[36:29] Speaker 8: fishing spots down the road from his house, and I
[36:32] Speaker 8: have fishing spots down the road.
[36:34] Speaker 10: From my house.
[36:36] Speaker 8: And this here is in South Carolina, and so we
[36:45] Speaker 8: get to talking and everything, and we said, yeah, so
[36:49] Speaker 8: excited to go spend the weekend with him. And then
[36:54] Speaker 8: father said he's got some good camping spots that we
[36:59] Speaker 8: can go and go fishing at.
[37:02] Speaker 10: But it's like we went.
[37:04] Speaker 8: Everywhere we went to go camping, it was loaded with
[37:10] Speaker 8: people and loaded with people that's really rowdy and everything.
[37:17] Speaker 8: And you could tell when we pulled up how rowdy
[37:20] Speaker 8: everybody was with drinking and so many bombfires all the
[37:24] Speaker 8: way down. You could see like twenty thirty bombfires along
[37:29] Speaker 8: side one of the rivers. So we decided to go
[37:34] Speaker 8: somewhere else, and it got dark on us. So my
[37:39] Speaker 8: friend's father said, let's pull over, and we went down
[37:45] Speaker 8: this dirt road alongside this other river that I knew
[37:48] Speaker 8: that I camped down there before. I never had the experience,
[37:54] Speaker 8: like not even five miles from the location. And we
[37:58] Speaker 8: was like three footballs away from alongside this river that's
[38:04] Speaker 8: in Gallus Fury, South Carolina, and it's a dirt road
[38:08] Speaker 8: that takes you the back way to Sandy Bluff and
[38:13] Speaker 8: it comes out next to another major highway. I think
[38:17] Speaker 8: it's nine seventeen between ninety seventeen and five out one
[38:23] Speaker 8: highway and it both takes you to Myrtle Beach or
[38:26] Speaker 8: North Myrtle Beach. So we decided it's already nine o'clock
[38:32] Speaker 8: and it's dark, and he said he don't want to
[38:34] Speaker 8: get down there and it be packed two so let's
[38:39] Speaker 8: just pull off here. Camping is camping, you know. And
[38:43] Speaker 8: we get up in the morning and we'll walk to
[38:45] Speaker 8: the river and we'll fish the river from where we're at,
[38:49] Speaker 8: and we're like three football fields away from it. So
[38:54] Speaker 8: we decided to set up tent. And while we're sat
[38:57] Speaker 8: in up tents, we kept hearing like tree knocks, and
[39:02] Speaker 8: it's already dark, and we got our landerings lit up
[39:06] Speaker 8: and everything. We built a fire and we heard a
[39:11] Speaker 8: tree knock some more and I was like, what is
[39:15] Speaker 8: the tree knocks? I knew I have heard this before
[39:20] Speaker 8: on TV. And I was like fifteen sixteen years old
[39:24] Speaker 8: at the time, seventeen maybe, and my friend's father theres ah,
[39:37] Speaker 8: it's just a noise in the woods. The trees rubby
[39:41] Speaker 8: gets each other sometimes and yeah, I understand, I heard
[39:45] Speaker 8: it squeak and crack and whatnot, but this is something else.
[39:51] Speaker 8: So he just said nothing, don't worry about it. So
[39:55] Speaker 8: all of a sudden, after we lay down in everything
[39:59] Speaker 8: and getting cuddled in for tonight, we hear tree knocks again,
[40:09] Speaker 8: but further away in the opposite direction, and I hear
[40:19] Speaker 8: my friend's father get and unziped because we had a
[40:25] Speaker 8: tent in him and his well, his father and mother
[40:29] Speaker 8: had a tent, and then we shared a tent with
[40:34] Speaker 8: my friend and his younger brother, so we're just all
[40:39] Speaker 8: all So there's five of us all together, and I
[40:44] Speaker 8: was like, what's going on? And my friend says, I
[40:48] Speaker 8: don't know, just stay here. So I I just stayed
[40:53] Speaker 8: put for a little bit, and I hear the tree
[40:55] Speaker 8: knocks again, and all of a sudden, I hear like
[41:00] Speaker 8: big branches snapping, and they're getting closer and closer, like
[41:05] Speaker 8: something was running through the woods. And I get up
[41:12] Speaker 8: and I unzip and get out of the tent and
[41:16] Speaker 8: I just stood there and it is pitch black in
[41:20] Speaker 8: the shadows. Only thing I could see is from the moonlight,
[41:26] Speaker 8: and the ground is all white like snow, because that
[41:30] Speaker 8: area next to the river is all sandy like the beach,
[41:36] Speaker 8: and that's all I can see. And then all of
[41:39] Speaker 8: a sudden, I see a shadow moving in between the
[41:42] Speaker 8: shadows and the moonlight coming closer and closer, and it
[41:47] Speaker 8: was my friend running back, says, get everything, get back
[41:51] Speaker 8: in the car. We got to get out of here,
[41:55] Speaker 8: and his father was already out there. And all of
[41:57] Speaker 8: a sudden, I hear something else coming through the woods
[42:01] Speaker 8: from the opposite direction, coming towards us, and it was
[42:06] Speaker 8: doing the same thing, and next or snapping breaking limbs,
[42:11] Speaker 8: and I hear twigs breaking, sticks break, And when I
[42:17] Speaker 8: say limbs break, I mean some desk like six inches
[42:22] Speaker 8: in diamer and bigger. And I because my friend's father
[42:32] Speaker 8: had a three fifty seven that went out into the
[42:37] Speaker 8: woods ahead of everybody else, we heard one gunshot, and
[42:47] Speaker 8: by a mile a mile and a half away, we
[42:53] Speaker 8: heard a wool, and the one to the left of us,
[43:01] Speaker 8: not the one to the right, because we heard the
[43:04] Speaker 8: whook to the right of us in the distance. And
[43:07] Speaker 8: the first ones that we heard coming through the woods
[43:11] Speaker 8: with the tree knocks and the breaking of the limbs,
[43:15] Speaker 8: let out a roar, and when he let out this roar,
[43:22] Speaker 8: it's like every tingle in your body just like shivered
[43:28] Speaker 8: up your spine, and that.
[43:31] Speaker 10: Every little gurgle of the roar like it was so beasty.
[43:36] Speaker 10: I had that.
[43:38] Speaker 8: I don't know how to explain it, but it was
[43:42] Speaker 8: more like a or or I can't pronounce it, but
[43:47] Speaker 8: it's in the middle of a roar, like her gurgling
[43:51] Speaker 8: in the middle of it. And every time it gurgled,
[43:55] Speaker 8: it's like the tingling sensation and that's going up your
[44:01] Speaker 8: shivering up your spine. Team like echoes with it. And
[44:09] Speaker 8: my friend looked at me while we was grabbing our
[44:14] Speaker 8: book bags and stuff and her fishing poles. After we
[44:20] Speaker 8: heard the gunshots, we come back through and looked down
[44:28] Speaker 8: the way that his father went. We went ahead to
[44:33] Speaker 8: the car and loaded up the car. Next thing I know,
[44:36] Speaker 8: here comes his father with his shirt torn all up
[44:41] Speaker 8: the pieces and he had a red mark across his
[44:46] Speaker 8: forearm where he said that when he was exact time
[44:53] Speaker 8: he pulled the trigger. Something from behind the like do evergreen,
[45:01] Speaker 8: it looks like a Christmas tree, tight bush that or tree,
[45:07] Speaker 8: something reached out and grabbed him and knocked his hand
[45:11] Speaker 8: down at the same time he pulled the trigger, and
[45:16] Speaker 8: when he turned and went to run away, he tripped,
[45:20] Speaker 8: and he said that whatever had grabbed his hand went
[45:25] Speaker 8: to grab him and pulled him up by the struff
[45:31] Speaker 8: and let out another roar, and he fell out, ripped
[45:39] Speaker 8: out of his shirt because of the weight and how
[45:43] Speaker 8: strong he had pulled him up. He fell to the ground.
[45:48] Speaker 8: And when he was coming back to the car, he
[45:50] Speaker 8: was holding his.
[45:51] Speaker 1: Arm like it was bruke, Oh my goodness.
[45:56] Speaker 8: And the next thing I know, we just got He
[46:00] Speaker 8: got in the car, cranked it up, and we just
[46:02] Speaker 8: took off down the road.
[46:05] Speaker 10: And I haven't been back to that place since then.
[46:09] Speaker 8: And I never heard this before because we literally camp
[46:14] Speaker 8: had a camp site with a camper right there at
[46:19] Speaker 8: the edge of the river, and we never heard any
[46:23] Speaker 8: tree knocks or anything. So I guess there's only certain
[46:29] Speaker 8: territories that we be in, in the certain territories they have,
[46:37] Speaker 8: But I.
[46:37] Speaker 1: Never gee, I don't know if i'd go back to
[46:40] Speaker 1: be honest.
[46:41] Speaker 10: Yeah, I never seen nothing. I've heard things tree knocks
[46:46] Speaker 10: and like funny whistles or funny like whoops.
[46:53] Speaker 8: Growing up playing around in the edge of the rivers
[46:56] Speaker 8: and everything but I ever had that type of experience
[47:02] Speaker 8: where something just roar or ground and you could just
[47:08] Speaker 8: feel the t the tingling sensation, and it echo and
[47:12] Speaker 8: it vibrates. The tingliness just vibrates through your spine and
[47:20] Speaker 8: it makes your heart. It makes your heart just feel
[47:24] Speaker 8: like it just fall out from the father. Again, when
[47:29] Speaker 8: his father had his arm banished up and and he
[47:35] Speaker 8: had h and like two or three days after that,
[47:40] Speaker 8: I would come by his house to check him out,
[47:44] Speaker 8: and he had a big bruise on his hand.
[47:50] Speaker 1: Man. Really, wow, well that's wild. That's wild.
[47:56] Speaker 8: He looked at me and he said, I knew I
[47:59] Speaker 8: shunning have stopped there, but I thought it would be
[48:05] Speaker 8: okay because he grew up camping right down the dirt
[48:12] Speaker 8: road from where we camped at alongside the river. And
[48:17] Speaker 8: he said he never had the experience, but he told
[48:21] Speaker 8: he did say that he was told to not camp
[48:27] Speaker 8: outside of the area.
[48:32] Speaker 1: Okay. Wow, oh man, that is that is some crazy stuff.
[48:38] Speaker 1: People need to be aware of that area for sure. Man.
[48:42] Speaker 1: Thank you for coming up and sharing what you guys
[48:45] Speaker 1: experienced there.
[48:47] Speaker 10: Yeah, I really appreciate you having me up. I never

[48:57] Speaker 8: want to hear things that they have not never actually
[49:02] Speaker 8: experienced their self. So I just kept it to myself
[49:07] Speaker 8: because there's been a lot of times I've seen something

[50:03] Speaker 11: I'm on the Tiyuana Valley region and he has a big,
[50:08] Speaker 11: large farm homestead and I actually shared a few stories
[50:11] Speaker 11: with you previously under her name Steve Miller, and this
[50:14] Speaker 11: is like the exact same occurrence that was happening to
[50:17] Speaker 11: my buddies in Rome, New York.
[50:20] Speaker 1: Okay, sorry, real quick, do you have something turned on
[50:24] Speaker 1: in the background. It's like repeating, oh a lot. I
[50:27] Speaker 1: don't know if it's okay. I think we're good now, okay, okay,
[50:33] Speaker 1: go ahead about that.
[50:34] Speaker 11: So my buddy the other right, he called me panicking
[50:37] Speaker 11: from soul cal I'm gonna have to go out there,
[50:40] Speaker 11: and it's not letting me display all the photo evidence
[50:43] Speaker 11: of what we have. But just two nights ago, my
[50:48] Speaker 11: buddy woke up to one of his animals got ripped
[50:51] Speaker 11: out of the cages again.
[50:53] Speaker 5: But it's like completely.
[50:54] Speaker 11: Barricaded and there they left everything behind. There's the k
[50:59] Speaker 11: I L s ite, the site of everything. I have
[51:04] Speaker 11: all the photo evidence. So get this right, yeah, I
[51:07] Speaker 11: roam New York. Get this man. My buddy woke up
[51:10] Speaker 11: the other night to he heard the whoop and then
[51:15] Speaker 11: he looks in the window and he said that it was.
[51:17] Speaker 5: So big that there was a whole black mass. It
[51:20] Speaker 5: took up the whole window.
[51:22] Speaker 11: So he wanted to look and before he could even
[51:24] Speaker 11: make a move or anything, he said, within a millisecond,
[51:27] Speaker 11: it was gone. So within a few seconds past he
[51:32] Speaker 11: you know, kind of tries to go back to sleep,
[51:34] Speaker 11: and then he wakes up to his lamb making crazy
[51:37] Speaker 11: noises and something snatched off his lamb. I have all
[51:41] Speaker 11: the photo evidence of sun destroyed the site, like ripped it.
[51:46] Speaker 5: All up, and I have the video. It won't let
[51:49] Speaker 5: me show the video. I have the scat of it.
[51:51] Speaker 11: He had investigators pull up to investigate some popular man
[51:56] Speaker 11: named Chris, and he was completely stunned.
[51:59] Speaker 5: He's said that he doesn't know what this poop could be.
[52:02] Speaker 11: He says, he doesn't know what it all is, and
[52:04] Speaker 11: I have it's not letting me show all this.
[52:06] Speaker 5: I'm gonna try and show you this.
[52:08] Speaker 11: This poop, it's next to his foot that's the size twelve.
[52:12] Speaker 5: And this poop has to be.
[52:13] Speaker 11: Man, it's like a three foot poop, okay, and not
[52:18] Speaker 11: just that.
[52:18] Speaker 5: I have the footprints.
[52:22] Speaker 11: With you can see the toe indentation and everything, and
[52:24] Speaker 11: you could see like the complete K I L L
[52:28] Speaker 11: S I T of the lamb. It left the intestines,
[52:32] Speaker 11: it didn't eat it, and there's not any blood left
[52:34] Speaker 11: on the absolute scene. So that he locked into it
[52:38] Speaker 11: and he said that supposedly it sucks to be l
[52:41] Speaker 11: O O D out, completely out of the animals. So
[52:44] Speaker 11: it's the whole site that I have with just the
[52:47] Speaker 11: intense the testing out, the poop that it left and
[52:51] Speaker 11: giant footprints with the animal completely missing with no blood and.
[52:59] Speaker 1: This what you said on the Mexico border.
[53:01] Speaker 11: Yeah, and the investigator is completely stunned. He said, like
[53:04] Speaker 11: he's never seen poop like this. It's I don't know
[53:06] Speaker 11: why it's not letting me show you this. Let me
[53:09] Speaker 11: try to get in this. It's not letting me show
[53:13] Speaker 11: my my phone. I have all the screenshots of it,
[53:15] Speaker 11: and it's insane.
[53:16] Speaker 7: Man.
[53:17] Speaker 11: Once the investigator came and seen this, he said, straight up,
[53:20] Speaker 11: there's some weird stuff going on.
[53:22] Speaker 5: And it also left the stack of rocks.
[53:26] Speaker 11: There's a pile of rocks right next to the Ki
[53:29] Speaker 11: Si teve where they believe it took the lamb, and
[53:31] Speaker 11: there's like seven stones that are perfectly placed up. I'm
[53:35] Speaker 11: the Bigfoot investigator. His name is Chris from SoCal.
[53:41] Speaker 1: Was he from the BFO? Where is he from?
[53:43] Speaker 11: I'm not too positive on that, But I don't know
[53:47] Speaker 11: why it's not letting me pull this up right now.
[53:49] Speaker 2: Man.
[53:49] Speaker 11: I'm kind of upset because I have all this photo
[53:52] Speaker 11: evidence to show you right now.
[53:54] Speaker 1: Man, this is you can always email it to me
[53:57] Speaker 1: if you want, he send me email at bigfoot dot com.
[54:01] Speaker 1: I can take a look at it that way.
[54:03] Speaker 11: Definitely, this says live access is needed to go. You
[54:08] Speaker 11: can go live on audio.
[54:09] Speaker 5: I don't know what I have to do to show
[54:11] Speaker 5: you this. I don't know how it's not letting me
[54:13] Speaker 5: pull this out.
[54:14] Speaker 3: I don't know.
[54:14] Speaker 1: That's weird. That's weird.
[54:17] Speaker 5: This is unfortunate because these are some significant I have
[54:23] Speaker 5: the screenshot.
[54:24] Speaker 11: I have two military helicopters that came to investigate after
[54:28] Speaker 11: the scene as well, and they were circling them all day.
[54:31] Speaker 11: So I used the transponder to to figure out what
[54:34] Speaker 11: it was. And then I had my buddy figure out
[54:36] Speaker 11: what it was, and he told me that they were
[54:38] Speaker 11: using the heat signatures to track them because he's the military,
[54:42] Speaker 11: so he used it in colde Wards and he told.
[54:44] Speaker 5: Me that the military that was in his exact area.
[54:47] Speaker 11: I told him the transponders and he looked into it
[54:49] Speaker 11: and he said that they were using the heat signatures
[54:51] Speaker 11: to trace them.
[54:55] Speaker 1: Hmm. That's really interesting. Yeah, I hope you can send
[54:59] Speaker 1: me an email. That's extremely interesting to look at.
[55:03] Speaker 5: Thank you, man, it's some real stuff.
[55:05] Speaker 11: I'm just really disappointed in TikTok.
[55:07] Speaker 5: I won't let me pull this up.
[55:11] Speaker 11: I might have to switch in with a different account
[55:13] Speaker 11: and then pop right back in. If that's okay to
[55:15] Speaker 11: show you.
[55:17] Speaker 5: Maybe that would be it.
[55:18] Speaker 1: Yeah, we we will. We'll see if that works out.
[55:22] Speaker 1: And I'm going to be on here for a few more.
[55:24] Speaker 1: But send me an email though, I think that would
[55:26] Speaker 1: be better in this case. All right, if you don't mind,

[57:37] Speaker 1: can get a little a little help with the costs there.
[57:40] Speaker 1: Appreciate that, Priscilla. I hope to see you at the
[57:44] Speaker 1: booth in Oakridge. This year we can talk about your encounter.
[57:48] Speaker 1: Was able to talk to so many people last year
[57:51] Speaker 1: and the year before. It is an incredible time. You're
[57:55] Speaker 1: not going to want to miss it, and I'll see
[57:57] Speaker 1: you there Before we wrap this episode, I want to
[58:01] Speaker 1: say something directly to a very specific group of listeners.
[58:05] Speaker 1: If you're in the military, any branch or forces, and
[58:08] Speaker 1: if you've seen something that no one can explain, or
[58:11] Speaker 1: if you're a National park ranger or forestry worker who's
[58:15] Speaker 1: been told to stay quiet, or if you're a pilot
[58:17] Speaker 1: who's seen something strange down on the ground, or if
[58:21] Speaker 1: you're with the FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence
[58:25] Speaker 1: and you stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about.
[58:28] Speaker 1: And if you're a firefighter, paramedic, or search and rescue
[58:31] Speaker 1: responder who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense.
[58:35] Speaker 1: If you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field,
[58:39] Speaker 1: or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something
[58:42] Speaker 1: happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're
[58:46] Speaker 1: a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under
[58:50] Speaker 1: contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report.
[58:54] Speaker 1: If you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a
[58:56] Speaker 1: spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your face,
[59:00] Speaker 1: or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA or
[59:04] Speaker 1: anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't,
[59:08] Speaker 1: then I want to talk to you, even if it's anonymous.
[59:13] Speaker 1: You can reach me at Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com.
[59:17] Speaker 1: The world needs to hear what you've been forced to
[59:20] Speaker 1: carry alone, and you're not alone. You've got the story,
[59:26] Speaker 1: We've got the mic. See you in the woods. Thank
[59:30] Speaker 1: you for listening to this episode of the Bigfoot Society podcast.
[59:33] Speaker 1: Every encounter we share reminds us that the world is
[59:36] Speaker 1: bigger and stranger than we think, and that the truth
[59:39] Speaker 1: is often hiding just beyond the tree line. If you
