1
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:02,330
hello it's the weekend of Saturday July

2
00:00:08,270 --> 00:00:06,210
15th and Sunday July 16th 2017 you are

3
00:00:10,759 --> 00:00:08,280
listening to inception Radio Network

4
00:00:13,009 --> 00:00:10,769
voice of the fringe majority this is

5
00:00:15,919 --> 00:00:13,019
Carole Karl with off the beaten path for

6
00:00:18,769 --> 00:00:15,929
the UFO heavenly news it's a weekend

7
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:18,779
with skies to watch and so here's what

8
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:21,510
earth sky dot-org promises tonight and

9
00:00:26,509 --> 00:00:24,090
probably tomorrow night too but just a

10
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:26,519
slightly different version we get to

11
00:00:32,450 --> 00:00:29,250
talk about o fiocchis the 13th

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:32,460
constellation of the zodiac tonight look

13
00:00:37,610 --> 00:00:34,130
for the faint constellation Ophiuchus

14
00:00:40,220 --> 00:00:37,620
the serpent bearer from the northern

15
00:00:42,860 --> 00:00:40,230
hemisphere looks southward at mid to

16
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:42,870
late evening all the month of July from

17
00:00:47,119 --> 00:00:44,730
the southern hemisphere look about that

18
00:00:49,790 --> 00:00:47,129
same time but look directly over your

19
00:00:50,540 --> 00:00:49,800
heads from all parts of Earth in the

20
00:00:54,350 --> 00:00:50,550
month of July

21
00:00:58,010 --> 00:00:54,360
Ophiuchus oh let's spell that it's OPH I

22
00:01:00,860 --> 00:00:58,020
you see H us it's sometimes called the

23
00:01:03,500 --> 00:01:00,870
13th or the Forgotten constellation of

24
00:01:05,960 --> 00:01:03,510
the zodiac the Sun passes in front of

25
00:01:09,109 --> 00:01:05,970
Ophiuchus from about November 29th to

26
00:01:11,230 --> 00:01:09,119
December 17th and yet no one ever says

27
00:01:14,090 --> 00:01:11,240
they're born when the Sun is in

28
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:14,100
Ophiuchus astrologically speaking and

29
00:01:18,950 --> 00:01:15,890
that's because Ophiuchus is a

30
00:01:22,190 --> 00:01:18,960
constellation but not a sign of the

31
00:01:24,289 --> 00:01:22,200
zodiac so what's the difference well

32
00:01:27,950 --> 00:01:24,299
according to this article from earth sky

33
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:27,960
org put together by Bruce McClure the 12

34
00:01:33,649 --> 00:01:30,210
signs of the tropical zodiac represent

35
00:01:36,260 --> 00:01:33,659
equal 30-degree divisions of sky while

36
00:01:39,170 --> 00:01:36,270
the 13 constellations of the zodiac are

37
00:01:41,749 --> 00:01:39,180
of various sizes that's why for example

38
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:41,759
the Sun resides in front of each zodiac

39
00:01:47,270 --> 00:01:44,850
assign for a precise interval of about a

40
00:01:49,340 --> 00:01:47,280
month meanwhile the Sun is in front of

41
00:01:51,770 --> 00:01:49,350
the constellations for varying amounts

42
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:51,780
of time for example in front of the

43
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:54,090
constellation Virgo it's there for about

44
00:01:58,969 --> 00:01:56,490
1 and 1/2 months and in front of

45
00:02:01,639 --> 00:01:58,979
Scorpius that constellation for about a

46
00:02:04,190 --> 00:02:01,649
week the planet Saturn and the bright

47
00:02:06,830 --> 00:02:04,200
red star Antares in the constellation

48
00:02:09,109 --> 00:02:06,840
Scorpius the scorpion can help you find

49
00:02:11,740 --> 00:02:09,119
Ophiuchus in your night sky

50
00:02:13,490 --> 00:02:11,750
Saturn actually shines in front of

51
00:02:16,340 --> 00:02:13,500
Ophiuchus this year

52
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:16,350
meanwhile Ophiuchus is to the north of

53
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:20,010
that star antares Ophiuchus the serpent

54
00:02:25,370 --> 00:02:22,770
bearer on sky maps it's depicted as

55
00:02:27,170 --> 00:02:25,380
holding serpens the serpent which is

56
00:02:29,810 --> 00:02:27,180
considered a separate constellation

57
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:29,820
altogether according to ancient Greek

58
00:02:38,060 --> 00:02:33,450
star lore Ophiuchus is Asclepius and

59
00:02:40,340 --> 00:02:38,070
that's both ASC le p I us the physician

60
00:02:42,530 --> 00:02:40,350
who concocted a healing potion from the

61
00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:42,540
Serpent's venom mixing it with the

62
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:45,930
Gorgons blood and some unknown herb this

63
00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:48,810
potion gave humans access to immortality

64
00:02:53,810 --> 00:02:50,910
until the god of the underworld appealed

65
00:02:56,630 --> 00:02:53,820
to Zeus to reconsider the ramifications

66
00:02:59,630 --> 00:02:56,640
of the death of death and here's an

67
00:03:02,180 --> 00:02:59,640
interesting fact even today that staff

68
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:02,190
of Asclepius the symbol of the world

69
00:03:07,250 --> 00:03:05,010
health organization pays tribute to the

70
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:07,260
constellation Ophiuchus the serpent

71
00:03:12,290 --> 00:03:10,170
bearer so here's that old bottom line in

72
00:03:15,170 --> 00:03:12,300
the form of a question will you see

73
00:03:17,900 --> 00:03:15,180
faint Ophiuchus that overlooked zodiacal

74
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:17,910
constellation tonight well go out there

75
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:19,290
and give it a try

76
00:03:24,650 --> 00:03:21,930
and of course later here at UFO headline

77
00:03:26,870 --> 00:03:24,660
news calm you can head on over and check

78
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:26,880
out the wonderful charts and graphs that

79
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:29,010
always accompany the earth sky dot org

80
00:03:34,850 --> 00:03:32,850
articles they are glorious trying to

81
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:34,860
find some glory in this but we can only

82
00:03:41,150 --> 00:03:38,010
find the drama and some suspense here's

83
00:03:44,509 --> 00:03:41,160
the headline massive iceberg breaks off

84
00:03:47,150 --> 00:03:44,519
Antarctica well we can't say we didn't

85
00:03:49,370 --> 00:03:47,160
see this coming in fact I guess NASA saw

86
00:03:51,710 --> 00:03:49,380
it initially and here's this article

87
00:03:55,250 --> 00:03:51,720
from earth sky org with a byline for

88
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:55,260
Deborah bird an iceberg about the size

89
00:04:01,160 --> 00:03:57,810
of the United States state of Delaware

90
00:04:03,830 --> 00:04:01,170
split off from Antarctica's Larsen sea

91
00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:03,840
ice shelf sometime between July 10th and

92
00:04:08,750 --> 00:04:06,510
July 12th in recent days several

93
00:04:11,390 --> 00:04:08,760
satellites in Earth orbit and a British

94
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:11,400
Antarctic Research project all have

95
00:04:16,789 --> 00:04:14,250
witnessed the birth of a huge iceberg

96
00:04:19,039 --> 00:04:16,799
again about the size of the state of

98
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:21,209
that's an Antarctic research project

99
00:04:26,270 --> 00:04:23,490
based out of the United Kingdom was the

100
00:04:27,350 --> 00:04:26,280
first to report the breakage NASA's Aqua

101
00:04:29,510 --> 00:04:27,360
satellite

102
00:04:32,149 --> 00:04:29,520
captured the images and there are plenty

103
00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:32,159
of images for you to peruse later gentle

104
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:34,889
listeners at UFO headline news dot-com

105
00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:37,370
the new iceberg is no surprise

106
00:04:42,350 --> 00:04:39,360
scientists had been aware of and

107
00:04:45,529 --> 00:04:42,360
monitoring a growing crack in the Larsen

108
00:04:48,350 --> 00:04:45,539
Sea ice sheet for many years Larsen C is

109
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:48,360
a floating platform of glacial ice on

110
00:04:52,850 --> 00:04:50,090
the east side of the Antarctic Peninsula

111
00:04:54,770 --> 00:04:52,860
it's the fourth largest ice shelf

112
00:04:58,969 --> 00:04:54,780
ringing Earth's southernmost continent

113
00:05:01,490 --> 00:04:58,979
for decades until 2014 a crack had been

114
00:05:04,159 --> 00:05:01,500
slowly growing into the ice shelf and

115
00:05:07,159 --> 00:05:04,169
then suddenly it started to spread more

116
00:05:10,129 --> 00:05:07,169
rapidly northwards and the result is

117
00:05:12,230 --> 00:05:10,139
that new iceberg and here's the size of

118
00:05:15,559 --> 00:05:12,240
that new iceberg it's twenty two hundred

119
00:05:18,050 --> 00:05:15,569
and forty square miles 5,800 square

120
00:05:21,439 --> 00:05:18,060
kilometers it's a chunk of ice that

121
00:05:23,450 --> 00:05:21,449
simply broken away and so the Larsen sea

122
00:05:26,629 --> 00:05:23,460
shelf area has shrunk by approximately

123
00:05:29,029 --> 00:05:26,639
10 percent Kelley brunt a glaciologist

125
00:05:33,980 --> 00:05:31,229
in Greenbelt Maryland said in a

126
00:05:36,649 --> 00:05:33,990
statement from NASA quote the

127
00:05:39,230 --> 00:05:36,659
interesting thing is what happens next

128
00:05:42,019 --> 00:05:39,240
how will the remaining ice shelf respond

129
00:05:45,019 --> 00:05:42,029
will the ice shelf weaken or possibly

130
00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:45,029
collapse like its neighbors Larsen a and

131
00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:48,000
Larsen B will the glaciers behind the

132
00:05:53,180 --> 00:05:49,759
ice shelf accelerate and have a direct

133
00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:53,190
contribution to sea-level rise or is

134
00:05:59,540 --> 00:05:56,310
this just a normal calving event and

135
00:06:02,899 --> 00:05:59,550
quotes the calving as in a cow giving

136
00:06:05,659 --> 00:06:02,909
birth spelled C alv ing it's that

137
00:06:08,689 --> 00:06:05,669
geological term when breakage like this

138
00:06:11,649 --> 00:06:08,699
happens so we'll just have to wait and

139
00:06:14,779 --> 00:06:11,659
see maybe have your boots at the ready

140
00:06:18,469 --> 00:06:14,789
here's something we can really dig into

story from the BBC dot-com curiously we

144
00:06:31,249 --> 00:06:28,379
didn't find a byline here but here's the

to excavate this site it's the first

156
00:07:02,530 --> 00:06:59,850
time such an archaeological site in the

157
00:07:04,970 --> 00:07:02,540
county has been excavated for 50 years

158
00:07:07,580 --> 00:07:04,980
the site itself is made up of two

159
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:07,590
ditches and an apparent central building

160
00:07:12,590 --> 00:07:09,690
which may have been covered by a mound

161
00:07:15,290 --> 00:07:12,600
that mound now flattened due to

162
00:07:16,790 --> 00:07:15,300
centuries of plowing the site is in the

00:07:21,890 --> 00:07:19,560
it was assessed via geophysical survey

165
00:07:24,410 --> 00:07:21,900
it is believed that this site could

166
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:24,420
contain human remains buried there about

unknown in recent times and this

172
00:07:43,730 --> 00:07:41,400
represents a fantastic chance to

00:08:18,110 --> 00:08:15,810
lain forgotten and hidden for thousands

187
00:08:19,820 --> 00:08:18,120
of years and quotes members of the

188
00:08:22,460 --> 00:08:19,830

10 feet long reminiscent of that

211
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:18,399
mythical Loch Ness monster it was

212
00:09:21,900 --> 00:09:19,930
visible for about a minute before

213
00:09:25,470 --> 00:09:21,910
dropping below the surface he told that

July 10th article it identified the

216
00:09:32,819 --> 00:09:30,209
source only as a local salesman

217
00:09:35,250 --> 00:09:32,829

Krypton's fabled animals and strange

219
00:09:40,530 --> 00:09:38,199
occurrences that's what they do it's

220
00:09:43,199 --> 00:09:40,540
just the latest in an ongoing series of

221
00:09:45,870 --> 00:09:43,209
monster sightings on this man-made lake

222
00:09:48,449 --> 00:09:45,880
Lake Norman in fact there's even a web

223
00:09:50,310 --> 00:09:48,459
site called Lake Norman monster calm

224
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:50,320
that allows people to post their

225
00:09:55,889 --> 00:09:52,690
sightings most describe the creature

226
00:09:58,110 --> 00:09:55,899
who's called Normie as looking like the

227
00:10:00,000 --> 00:09:58,120
famed Loch Ness monster that allegedly

228
00:10:02,220 --> 00:10:00,010
inhabits Loch Ness in the Scottish

229
00:10:05,610 --> 00:10:02,230
Highlands and it looks here as though

230
00:10:08,129 --> 00:10:05,620
Normie is getting lots of PR there's a

231
00:10:11,100 --> 00:10:08,139
page devoted to Normie on the website

232
00:10:13,319 --> 00:10:11,110
unknown explorers calm it notes there's

233
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:13,329
no physical evidence to support the

234
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:15,850
existence of a monster living in Lake

235
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:18,850
Norman that site unknown explorers calm

236
00:10:23,759 --> 00:10:21,130
speculates the sightings could involve a

237
00:10:27,389 --> 00:10:23,769
giant catfish or something called an

238
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:27,399
alligator gar fish quote descriptions of

239
00:10:31,889 --> 00:10:29,410
Normie vary from sighting deciding and

240
00:10:34,410 --> 00:10:31,899
range from a crocodilian light creature

241
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:34,420
to the more classic three humped serpent

242
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:36,250
that's what they say it unknown

243
00:10:41,430 --> 00:10:39,490
explorers calm they continue most that

244
00:10:42,930 --> 00:10:41,440
have seen the Lake Norman monster seemed

245
00:10:45,780 --> 00:10:42,940
to agree that the Beast is more

246
00:10:49,230 --> 00:10:45,790
fish-like with a slender body think

247
00:10:51,750 --> 00:10:49,240
whisker like appendages flippers and a

248
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:51,760
raggedy looking dorsal fin and quotes

249
00:10:56,519 --> 00:10:54,010
the Charlotte Observer has covered these

250
00:10:58,079 --> 00:10:56,529
ongoing Lake Norman sightings which date

251
00:11:00,480 --> 00:10:58,089
back nearly 50 years

252
00:11:02,579 --> 00:11:00,490
a few dozen witnesses of posted

253
00:11:04,579 --> 00:11:02,589
sightings on Lake Norman monster comm

254
00:11:07,259 --> 00:11:04,589
including some from last year

255
00:11:07,830 --> 00:11:07,269
descriptions range from a dinosaur like

256
00:11:11,130 --> 00:11:07,840
monster

257
00:11:13,980 --> 00:11:11,140
to a giant snake with fins and thick

258
00:11:16,380 --> 00:11:13,990
whiskers here's a quote from John Ed's

259
00:11:19,170 --> 00:11:16,390
of Huntersville quote I was on a boat

260
00:11:21,870 --> 00:11:19,180
when a huge force from below knocked me

261
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:21,880
overboard I got back onto my boat and

262
00:11:27,330 --> 00:11:24,730
then I saw a Nessie like sea monster

263
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:27,340
swimming away from me this thing looked

264
00:11:32,910 --> 00:11:31,210
to be 15 feet long and quotes oh that

265
00:11:35,610 --> 00:11:32,920
would be exciting the key phrase here

266
00:11:37,170 --> 00:11:35,620
the monster was swimming away from me

267
00:11:39,870 --> 00:11:37,180
that's a good thing

268
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:39,880
eyewitness identified as Nate from

269
00:11:43,980 --> 00:11:42,250
Denver North Carolina posted that he and

270
00:11:47,820 --> 00:11:43,990
his girlfriend saw the creature while

271
00:11:50,820 --> 00:11:47,830
they were on a jet ski in 2014 he says

272
00:11:52,860 --> 00:11:50,830
quote we both saw a large body come to

273
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:52,870
the surface this thing was dark and

274
00:11:58,050 --> 00:11:55,810
shiny in some spots but it was at least

275
00:11:58,440 --> 00:11:58,060
14 feet long we were both scared to

276
00:12:01,260 --> 00:11:58,450
death

277
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:01,270
she's now scared to swim there but I'm

278
00:12:07,860 --> 00:12:05,050
really curious and quotes oh we're all

279
00:12:10,380 --> 00:12:07,870
curious we'll keep checking the area of

280
00:12:12,690 --> 00:12:10,390
Lake Norman Mecklenburg County North

281
00:12:14,820 --> 00:12:12,700
Carolina see what else comes to the

282
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:14,830
surface since we're talking about

283
00:12:20,940 --> 00:12:17,890
critters of unknown origin this fits in

284
00:12:26,130 --> 00:12:20,950
right about here the oldest account of

285
00:12:29,250 --> 00:12:26,140
Bigfoot was recorded in 986 AD this is

286
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:29,260
from the Sasquatch Chronicles and here's

287
00:12:34,820 --> 00:12:31,930
what it says the oldest account was

288
00:12:38,820 --> 00:12:34,830
recorded by Leif Ericson and his man in

289
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:38,830
986 ad during their first landing in the

290
00:12:43,860 --> 00:12:41,290
new world the Norseman wrote about

291
00:12:47,370 --> 00:12:43,870
man-like beasts that were quote horribly

292
00:12:51,090 --> 00:12:47,380
ugly hairy swarthy and with great black

293
00:12:53,610 --> 00:12:51,100
eyes and quotes among his accounts Leif

294
00:12:56,580 --> 00:12:53,620
Ericson told of seeing huge hairy men

295
00:12:58,920 --> 00:12:56,590
who towered over him and his men the

296
00:13:01,830 --> 00:12:58,930
quote huge hairy men and quotes

297
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:01,840
according to Leif lived in the woods had

298
00:13:07,290 --> 00:13:04,650
a rank odor and a deafening shriek

299
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:07,300
according to this article from Sasquatch

300
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:10,210
chronicles which is uncredited it should

301
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:12,250
be noticed that Leif Ericson and his men

302
00:13:18,270 --> 00:13:15,010
described these man-like beasts loud

303
00:13:21,390 --> 00:13:18,280
foul-smelling as clearly distinct from

304
00:13:21,700 --> 00:13:21,400
native peoples apparently Leif Ericson

305
00:13:24,190 --> 00:13:21,710
had

306
00:13:26,110 --> 00:13:24,200
sightings of these huge hairy men before

307
00:13:26,590 --> 00:13:26,120
departing the island they called this

308
00:13:31,950 --> 00:13:26,600
creature

309
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:31,960
skell ring that spelled s ke ll r ing

310
00:13:37,630 --> 00:13:34,490
people believe that the creature scale

311
00:13:40,150 --> 00:13:37,640
ring is what we know today as Bigfoot

312
00:13:43,270 --> 00:13:40,160
this is the earliest recorded encounter

313
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:43,280
with Bigfoot or Sasquatch that Norse

314
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:45,890
word scale ring it's a term of contempt

315
00:13:51,340 --> 00:13:49,610
it means roughly a barbarian what is

316
00:13:53,530 --> 00:13:51,350
interesting is the word hairy

317
00:13:56,680 --> 00:13:53,540
the Norse were a hairy people themselves

318
00:13:58,630 --> 00:13:56,690
big men with matted hair and beards why

319
00:14:01,270 --> 00:13:58,640
did they remark on the scale ring being

320
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:01,280
hairy or was it because they were that

321
00:14:06,190 --> 00:14:04,370
much hairier than the Norseman well we

322
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:06,200
have to leave that part because we're

323
00:14:09,970 --> 00:14:08,090
going to track down now the first

324
00:14:12,250 --> 00:14:09,980
recorded sighting of Bigfoot in the

325
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:12,260
United States it's nearly as difficult

326
00:14:17,100 --> 00:14:14,210
according to this article as tracking

327
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:17,110
down that mythical hairy creature itself

328
00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:19,490
while most sources seem to agree that

329
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:21,710
the first credible evidence of Bigfoot

330
00:14:26,500 --> 00:14:24,170
in North America was discovered in 1811

331
00:14:29,770 --> 00:14:26,510
it happened near the town of Jasper

332
00:14:31,810 --> 00:14:29,780
Alberta Canada but nearly every serious

333
00:14:34,350 --> 00:14:31,820
Bigfoot researcher has his own or her

334
00:14:36,490 --> 00:14:34,360
own opinion as to when and where

335
00:14:39,130 --> 00:14:36,500
America's first documented Bigfoot

336
00:14:42,010 --> 00:14:39,140
sighting ever took place and even good

337
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:42,020
old Wikipedia isn't 100% clear on this

338
00:14:47,590 --> 00:14:45,050
matter according to wiki Bigfoot stories

339
00:14:50,350 --> 00:14:47,600
in America date back to 1840 when a

340
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:50,360
missionary named Elkanah Walker recorded

341
00:14:55,110 --> 00:14:52,490
stories of giants among the Native

342
00:14:58,810 --> 00:14:55,120
Americans living in Washington State in

343
00:15:02,260 --> 00:14:58,820
1847 Paul Kane recorded similar stories

344
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:02,270
about Skookum supernatural cannibalistic

345
00:15:08,230 --> 00:15:05,210
wild men living on Mount st. Helens

346
00:15:10,420 --> 00:15:08,240
of course since Walker and Kane only

347
00:15:13,030 --> 00:15:10,430
recorded oral legends these cannot be

348
00:15:15,970 --> 00:15:13,040
cited as actual Bigfoot sightings in

349
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:15,980
fact even that well-known sighting in

350
00:15:21,700 --> 00:15:19,490
1811 in Jasper Alberta cannot truly be

351
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:21,710
called a legitimate Bigfoot sighting a

352
00:15:27,220 --> 00:15:24,170
traitor named David Thompson merely

353
00:15:29,890 --> 00:15:27,230
found some strange 4-toed footprints in

354
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:29,900
the snow these prints measured 14 inches

355
00:15:34,930 --> 00:15:31,930
in length and eight inches in width

356
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:34,940
however David Thompson did not actually

357
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:37,370
see the creature which left those prints

358
00:15:43,150 --> 00:15:40,130
other early well publicized Bigfoot

359
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:43,160
sightings such as the 1884 capture of

360
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:46,130
Sasquatch in British Columbia later

361
00:15:50,380 --> 00:15:48,770
turned out to be hoaxes according to

362
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:50,390
some researchers the first documented

363
00:15:56,260 --> 00:15:52,370
incredible Bigfoot sighting in North

364
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:56,270
America didn't occur until 1924 when a

365
00:16:00,730 --> 00:15:58,130
Canadian lumberjack Albert Ostman

366
00:16:03,460 --> 00:16:00,740
claimed to have been captured and held

367
00:16:06,580 --> 00:16:03,470
captive by a family of Bigfoots near

368
00:16:08,260 --> 00:16:06,590
British Columbia's Toba Inlet although

369
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:08,270
hundreds of Bigfoot sightings took place

370
00:16:12,820 --> 00:16:11,330
before 1924 Albert Ostman had the

371
00:16:14,830 --> 00:16:12,830
foresight to sign an official

372
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:14,840
declaration indicating that his story

373
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:17,570
was true under oath and by virtue of the

374
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:20,930
Canadian Evidence Act thereby cementing

375
00:16:27,340 --> 00:16:24,530
his legacy as one might imagine today's

376
00:16:29,770 --> 00:16:27,350
Internet has changed things up just a

377
00:16:32,590 --> 00:16:29,780
tad many sightings many accounts

378
00:16:35,170 --> 00:16:32,600
sometimes footage how to vet that how to

379
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:35,180
discern the real from the hoax that's

380
00:16:38,980 --> 00:16:37,250
hard but you don't have to worry about

381
00:16:42,430 --> 00:16:38,990
that too much there's an organization

382
00:16:46,210 --> 00:16:42,440
that sort of does that for you it's the

383
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:46,220
BFRO the Bigfoot research organization

384
00:16:50,710 --> 00:16:48,050
they've got history they have a

385
00:16:53,020 --> 00:16:50,720
geographical database of sightings and

386
00:16:55,210 --> 00:16:53,030
reports in fact here's what they say

387
00:16:57,550 --> 00:16:55,220
about themselves this comprehensive

388
00:17:00,160 --> 00:16:57,560
database of credible sightings and

389
00:17:02,230 --> 00:17:00,170
related reports is maintained by an

390
00:17:05,069 --> 00:17:02,240
all-volunteer network of Bigfoot

391
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:05,079
Sasquatch researchers archivists and

392
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:07,490
investigators in the United States and

393
00:17:11,949 --> 00:17:10,010
Canada if you have had a sighting in the

394
00:17:13,990 --> 00:17:11,959
United States Canada or any other

395
00:17:16,090 --> 00:17:14,000
country they ask you to please take a

396
00:17:19,300 --> 00:17:16,100
moment report it to their team of

397
00:17:20,590 --> 00:17:19,310
scientists so while we're here gentle

398
00:17:24,429 --> 00:17:20,600
listeners why don't we pick up a

399
00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:24,439
sighting reported to the F ro the year

400
00:17:34,450 --> 00:17:29,510
2017 season summer month June date 25

401
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:34,460
state Ohio the County Hocking County the

402
00:17:39,010 --> 00:17:36,650
location details this was in the

403
00:17:41,290 --> 00:17:39,020
vicinity of Rock Bridge State Nature

404
00:17:43,510 --> 00:17:41,300
Preserve the nearest town was Rock

405
00:17:48,270 --> 00:17:43,520
Bridge and the nearest road was number

406
00:17:50,790 --> 00:17:48,280
33 observed I stopped at an

407
00:17:53,190 --> 00:17:50,800
nature preserve to hike on my way and I

408
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:53,200
had passed at least 14 people in various

409
00:17:58,740 --> 00:17:56,050
ways on their way out I'd walk down

410
00:18:01,920 --> 00:17:58,750
across the bridge and I was looping back

411
00:18:05,460 --> 00:18:01,930
it was about 4:00 p.m. as I was rounding

412
00:18:08,190 --> 00:18:05,470
a bend I heard something big run away in

413
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:08,200
the woods I thought I'd scared a deer so

414
00:18:14,190 --> 00:18:11,290
I continued on this is when I rounded

415
00:18:16,500 --> 00:18:14,200
the bend and saw a print on the trail

416
00:18:19,500 --> 00:18:16,510
going in the opposite direction of what

417
00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:19,510
ever I heard scamper away the ground was

418
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:21,310
hard the print was only about a

419
00:18:26,220 --> 00:18:24,010
quarter-inch into the dirt there were no

420
00:18:29,310 --> 00:18:26,230
other people prints there was nothing on

421
00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:29,320
that trail so as I'm taking pictures

422
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:31,720
something crashes in the trees above me

423
00:18:36,210 --> 00:18:33,850
I covered my head waiting for a big

424
00:18:37,890 --> 00:18:36,220
branch to fall on me after that I

425
00:18:40,110 --> 00:18:37,900
hightailed it out of there

426
00:18:42,570 --> 00:18:40,120
I left passing another half a dozen

427
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:42,580
people on their way in as I made my way

428
00:18:49,020 --> 00:18:46,210
out I never expected nor was I looking

429
00:18:51,030 --> 00:18:49,030
for anything on such a populated path if

430
00:18:53,700 --> 00:18:51,040
it wasn't for the fact that I had heard

431
00:18:56,550 --> 00:18:53,710
something right before and right after I

432
00:18:59,880 --> 00:18:56,560
found that print I would have seriously

433
00:19:02,730 --> 00:18:59,890
leaned toward fake the time and

434
00:19:05,370 --> 00:19:02,740
conditions it was sunny cooler 4 p.m.

435
00:19:07,950 --> 00:19:05,380
the park is situated along the Hocking

436
00:19:11,310 --> 00:19:07,960
River which is notable for its natural

437
00:19:15,530 --> 00:19:11,320
rock bridge oh what a perfect setting

438
00:19:19,410 --> 00:19:15,540
for a sighting and an update on July 1st

439
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:19,420
investigator for BFRO mark D worth and

440
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:21,850
the writer of this who is uncredited

441
00:19:27,090 --> 00:19:24,450
went into the location for an on-site

442
00:19:29,310 --> 00:19:27,100
investigation that track was still

443
00:19:32,460 --> 00:19:29,320
visible and congruent with the witnesses

444
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:32,470
recount and submitted photos photos were

445
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:34,450
taken for documentation purposes and

446
00:19:40,290 --> 00:19:37,450
then there's a chart of the measurements

447
00:19:45,630 --> 00:19:40,300
oh the length eighteen point five inches

448
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:45,640
the toe width was - 7.75 inches the heel

449
00:19:53,700 --> 00:19:50,170
width was - 6.5 inches the track was not

450
00:19:56,210 --> 00:19:53,710
cast due to normal erosion time elapsed

451
00:19:58,620 --> 00:19:56,220
and recently there had been heavy rains

452
00:20:00,710 --> 00:19:58,630
the witness felt like there were two

453
00:20:03,020 --> 00:20:00,720
separate individuals around him

454
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:03,030
as he could hear heavy movement on both

455
00:20:07,130 --> 00:20:05,610
sides of him he was truly terrified

456
00:20:10,610 --> 00:20:07,140
during this event which caused him to

457
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:10,620
panic and flee the area having vast

458
00:20:14,750 --> 00:20:12,450
experience in this part of Fairfield

459
00:20:17,390 --> 00:20:14,760
County and a vast knowledge of all close

460
00:20:20,539 --> 00:20:17,400
by nature preserves the person who

461
00:20:22,789 --> 00:20:20,549
writes this for BFRO said that he wasn't

462
00:20:25,070 --> 00:20:22,799
surprised about that possibility

463
00:20:28,250 --> 00:20:25,080
there's a nice convergence of creeks

464
00:20:30,860 --> 00:20:28,260
buck run a few miles down to this area

465
00:20:34,399 --> 00:20:30,870
leading eventually to the Hocking river

466
00:20:38,029 --> 00:20:34,409
and down into Wayne National Forest oh

467
00:20:41,180 --> 00:20:38,039
by the way we were so wrong yikes the

468
00:20:43,580 --> 00:20:41,190
investigator here not a guy a gal a gal

469
00:20:46,580 --> 00:20:43,590
by the name of B Mills she's a native

470
00:20:50,919 --> 00:20:46,590
Ohio employed as a registered nurse in

471
00:20:53,890 --> 00:20:50,929
Columbus Ohio all right cue the skulls

472
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:53,900
grisly music but exciting

473
00:20:59,500 --> 00:20:56,610
archaeologically grizzly from the

474
00:21:02,570 --> 00:20:59,510
Atlantic calm here's a headline

475
00:21:05,930 --> 00:21:02,580
archeologists in Mexico find an Aztec

476
00:21:08,029 --> 00:21:05,940
tower of skulls sub-headline

477
00:21:10,310 --> 00:21:08,039
existence of the edifice has been

478
00:21:13,250 --> 00:21:10,320
rumored since the conquest of headin on

479
00:21:15,770 --> 00:21:13,260
Cortes this story isn't brand new

480
00:21:17,230 --> 00:21:15,780
breaking news it's about a week old but

481
00:21:19,850 --> 00:21:17,240
here we go

482
00:21:22,299 --> 00:21:19,860
archeologists in Mexico City say they've

483
00:21:26,539 --> 00:21:22,309
discovered part of the long rumored ua

484
00:21:32,930 --> 00:21:26,549
tzompantli let's spell that h u ey

485
00:21:35,120 --> 00:21:32,940
second word t z om PA and tli a rack of

486
00:21:39,590 --> 00:21:35,130
human skulls believed to measure some

487
00:21:42,470 --> 00:21:39,600
200 feet in diameter the tower sat on

488
00:21:45,260 --> 00:21:42,480
the edge of the templo mayor a temple

489
00:21:48,919 --> 00:21:45,270
devoted to the Aztec god of son war and

490
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:48,929
human sacrifice while its existence has

491
00:21:52,940 --> 00:21:50,610
been talked about since the conquest of

492
00:21:55,100 --> 00:21:52,950
had a man Cortez now that researchers

493
00:21:57,770 --> 00:21:55,110
have uncovered these skulls they've

494
00:22:00,980 --> 00:21:57,780
raised more questions about Aztec

495
00:22:02,930 --> 00:22:00,990
practices quote something is happening

496
00:22:05,299 --> 00:22:02,940
that we have no record of and this is

497
00:22:08,029 --> 00:22:05,309
really new the first in weights and

498
00:22:09,620 --> 00:22:08,039
partly end quotes that's from Rodrigo

499
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:09,630
bull honest he's a biological

500
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:12,570
anthropologist working on that dig two

501
00:22:16,460 --> 00:22:14,490
years ago researchers from the

502
00:22:19,190 --> 00:22:16,470
Institute of anthropology and history

503
00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:19,200
started their dig at the edge of Mexico

504
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:22,110
City's Metropolitan Cathedral which now

505
00:22:26,630 --> 00:22:24,410
covers that ancient site of templo mayor

506
00:22:29,150 --> 00:22:26,640
the discovery is one of the most

507
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:29,160
important related to Aztec ceremonial

508
00:22:35,300 --> 00:22:32,850
practice these racks of skulls as well

509
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:35,310
as acts of human sacrifice were common

510
00:22:39,860 --> 00:22:38,010
among Mesoamerican cultures it's

511
00:22:41,990 --> 00:22:39,870
believed to be one of the largest such

512
00:22:44,750 --> 00:22:42,000
towers and it was written about by

513
00:22:46,430 --> 00:22:44,760
hombres de Tapia a Spanish soldier who

514
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:46,440
followed caught a case on his conquest

515
00:22:53,300 --> 00:22:50,490
of Mexico in 1521 in his account de

516
00:22:56,180 --> 00:22:53,310
Tapia said the rack included tens of

517
00:22:58,970 --> 00:22:56,190
thousands of skulls quote placed on a

518
00:23:01,790 --> 00:22:58,980
very large theater made of lime and

519
00:23:04,730 --> 00:23:01,800
stone and on the steps of it were many

520
00:23:08,140 --> 00:23:04,740
heads of the dead stuck in the lime with

521
00:23:11,780 --> 00:23:08,150
their teeth facing upward end quotes

522
00:23:13,970 --> 00:23:11,790
mmm the you eat some partly a display of

523
00:23:16,820 --> 00:23:13,980
heads of those sacrificed was meant to

524
00:23:18,890 --> 00:23:16,830
showcase Aztec power other cultures like

525
00:23:21,110 --> 00:23:18,900
the Maya and the Toltec he had similar

526
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:21,120
customs and oftentimes they were built

527
00:23:26,210 --> 00:23:24,050
from the heads of captured enemies

528
00:23:28,430 --> 00:23:26,220
researchers didn't expect to find so

529
00:23:30,230 --> 00:23:28,440
many skulls from women and children

530
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:30,240
because it was believed that mainly

531
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:32,850
young men fought and were sacrificed for

532
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:35,490
these ceremonies here's a Rodrigo bottle

533
00:23:39,890 --> 00:23:37,170
honest again he says quote we were

534
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:39,900
expecting just men the thing about the

535
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:41,850
women and children is that you'd think

536
00:23:47,540 --> 00:23:45,530
they wouldn't be going to war and quotes

537
00:23:51,410 --> 00:23:47,550
archeologists on the site have uncovered

538
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:51,420
more than 650 skulls so far many covered

539
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:54,090
with lime to bond them together the

540
00:23:59,210 --> 00:23:56,250
edifice forms a large inner circle that

541
00:24:01,640 --> 00:23:59,220
raises and widens in a succession of

542
00:24:03,260 --> 00:24:01,650
rings these skulls in the weights on

543
00:24:05,270 --> 00:24:03,270
palm play would have been set after

544
00:24:08,510 --> 00:24:05,280
they'd been displayed publicly in other

545
00:24:11,420 --> 00:24:08,520
smaller racks around the ancient city of

546
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:11,430
Tenochtitlan which served as the Aztec

547
00:24:17,120 --> 00:24:14,970
capital and later became Mexico City the

548
00:24:19,130 --> 00:24:17,130
base of the weights on Pont Lee has yet

549
00:24:21,890 --> 00:24:19,140
to be uncovered and archaeologists

550
00:24:24,620 --> 00:24:21,900
expect to find many more skulls the

551
00:24:26,390 --> 00:24:24,630
publication el economies third reported

552
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:26,400
