70
00:02:24,869 --> 00:02:22,319
verified the previous sighting a week

71
00:02:26,309 --> 00:02:24,879

83
00:02:53,110 --> 00:02:51,760

very interesting a very interesting

87
00:03:07,190 --> 00:03:05,599
report because he was outside he would

88
00:03:08,229 --> 00:03:07,200
say he was leaning up against the walls

89
00:03:11,750 --> 00:03:08,239
about

90
00:03:14,869 --> 00:03:11,760
this is the 30th

91
00:03:16,949 --> 00:03:14,879
of june this was in the logan square

92
00:03:20,470 --> 00:03:16,959
area 2500 block of north

93
00:03:21,270 --> 00:03:20,480
milwaukee avenue and he said along the

94
00:03:22,630 --> 00:03:21,280
time he said

95
00:03:24,949 --> 00:03:22,640
it's a few people walking up and down

96
00:03:26,949 --> 00:03:24,959
the street say he noticed

97
00:03:28,470 --> 00:03:26,959
a large bat like creature flying above

98
00:03:32,070 --> 00:03:28,480
the street lights

99
00:03:33,509 --> 00:03:32,080
says about 60 to 70 foot away and it was

100
00:03:35,350 --> 00:03:33,519
across the street there used to be a

101
00:03:36,789 --> 00:03:35,360
building there but it was had just been

102
00:03:38,390 --> 00:03:36,799
leveled

103
00:03:40,070 --> 00:03:38,400
and it's a lot and he said this thing

104
00:03:44,630 --> 00:03:40,080
was flying over the

105
00:03:49,670 --> 00:03:47,830
he said when he looked at it the thing

106
00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:49,680
wasn't looking at him but it was kind of

107
00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:51,760
had his hand turned toward the other way

108
00:03:55,589 --> 00:03:53,519
and he knows something that we haven't

109
00:03:59,190 --> 00:03:55,599
gotten before

110
00:04:01,110 --> 00:03:59,200
uh a pointed crest

111
00:04:02,789 --> 00:04:01,120
coming out from extending from the back

112
00:04:05,110 --> 00:04:02,799
of the head and he said

113
00:04:07,750 --> 00:04:05,120
it was similar to a pterosaur you know

114
00:04:11,670 --> 00:04:07,760
like you see like a pterodactyl

115
00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:11,680
and uh he didn't see eyes or anything

116
00:04:16,069 --> 00:04:13,680
but the description of the body was it

117
00:04:19,110 --> 00:04:16,079
was about five five and a half foot

118
00:04:20,069 --> 00:04:19,120
in length the body and it was grayish in

119
00:04:21,670 --> 00:04:20,079
color

120
00:04:23,350 --> 00:04:21,680
because it was well illuminated because

121
00:04:25,749 --> 00:04:23,360
the street lights

122
00:04:27,350 --> 00:04:25,759
i said the head was human-like but much

123
00:04:29,110 --> 00:04:27,360
thinner just like the one we got in

124
00:04:31,909 --> 00:04:29,120
lincoln park

125
00:04:33,189 --> 00:04:31,919
and had that pointed crest and he said

126
00:04:35,749 --> 00:04:33,199
that um

127
00:04:37,189 --> 00:04:35,759
the body tapered to the back and it

128
00:04:40,550 --> 00:04:37,199
looked like there were short legs or

129
00:04:42,790 --> 00:04:40,560
appendages tucked up underneath it

130
00:04:44,150 --> 00:04:42,800
and the wing spans about eight to ten

131
00:04:47,189 --> 00:04:44,160
foot

132
00:04:49,909 --> 00:04:47,199
the wings were bat like membrane

133
00:04:51,030 --> 00:04:49,919
but heavy like that of a pterosaur so

134
00:04:53,670 --> 00:04:51,040
the witness

135
00:04:55,749 --> 00:04:53,680
noticed that it the being flapped its

136
00:04:57,909 --> 00:04:55,759
wings to gain speed and height

137
00:04:59,189 --> 00:04:57,919
and then it would glide so there was no

138
00:05:03,110 --> 00:04:59,199
sound

139
00:05:06,230 --> 00:05:03,120
uh you said as as it went by him

140
00:05:10,230 --> 00:05:06,240
it flapped got a burst of speed and went

141
00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:10,240
up in the clouds

142
00:05:19,670 --> 00:05:18,310
you know unfortunately he said his his

143
00:05:21,670 --> 00:05:19,680
phone was inside the bar

144
00:05:23,350 --> 00:05:21,680
charging at the time because he said he

145
00:05:24,629 --> 00:05:23,360
grabbed for his phone he realized didn't

146
00:05:28,790 --> 00:05:24,639
have it

147
00:05:30,790 --> 00:05:28,800
and uh but

148
00:05:32,950 --> 00:05:30,800
you know he was pretty convincing and he

149
00:05:35,830 --> 00:05:32,960
wouldn't embellish on her or anything so

150
00:05:37,110 --> 00:05:35,840
you know this is um this was a good

151
00:05:38,150 --> 00:05:37,120
sighting and it had a little bit of

152
00:05:41,590 --> 00:05:38,160
different

153
00:05:44,870 --> 00:05:41,600
flavor to it but it was um

154
00:05:47,110 --> 00:05:44,880
it was a good sighting very strange

155
00:05:48,390 --> 00:05:47,120
uh i just put in the chat tara people

156
00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:48,400
like

157
00:05:53,189 --> 00:05:50,560
are we are we seeing something

158
00:05:56,469 --> 00:05:55,110
that's the first time i got that thing

159
00:05:57,270 --> 00:05:56,479
the description that are coming off

160
00:05:59,110 --> 00:05:57,280
backwards head

161
00:06:00,309 --> 00:05:59,120
now of course you know i i personally

162
00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:00,319
believe

163
00:06:03,590 --> 00:06:02,080
that we're dealing with with more than

164
00:06:06,950 --> 00:06:03,600
one i think

165
00:06:09,029 --> 00:06:06,960
minimum two maybe three um

166
00:06:11,029 --> 00:06:09,039
where they're coming from i don't know i

167
00:06:12,469 --> 00:06:11,039
was reading some interesting things last

168
00:06:17,110 --> 00:06:12,479
night

169
00:06:23,270 --> 00:06:20,230
and possible portals in lake michigan

170
00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:23,280
under water portals that open up

171
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:26,479
and a few other oddball things

172
00:06:31,189 --> 00:06:29,440
i don't know if that's the case i have i

173
00:06:33,189 --> 00:06:31,199
did mention once before that one of the

174
00:06:36,870 --> 00:06:33,199
sightings had a green

175
00:06:38,230 --> 00:06:36,880
ufo uh associated with that others had

176
00:06:41,510 --> 00:06:38,240
flashing

177
00:06:44,550 --> 00:06:41,520
that came south uh

178
00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:44,560
these portals have been known to open in

179
00:06:48,390 --> 00:06:46,080
lake michigan

180
00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:48,400
in the area the the michigan triangle if

181
00:06:52,710 --> 00:06:50,319
you're familiar with that

182
00:06:54,230 --> 00:06:52,720
and when these portals open up and

183
00:06:57,510 --> 00:06:54,240
people see craft coming

184
00:06:59,990 --> 00:06:57,520
out of the water it's the so

185
00:07:02,469 --> 00:07:00,000
there are a lot of green flashes and

186
00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:02,479
green orbs associated with it

187
00:07:05,909 --> 00:07:04,560
so i don't know if that has any kind of

188
00:07:06,950 --> 00:07:05,919
connection or not

189
00:07:09,909 --> 00:07:06,960
or it's something i'm going to be

190
00:07:14,950 --> 00:07:12,870
well i it gets more and more interesting

191
00:07:16,550 --> 00:07:14,960
every time we get a report

192
00:07:18,390 --> 00:07:16,560
you know we've had a lot of people

193
00:07:20,309 --> 00:07:18,400
comment to us over the weeks

194
00:07:22,469 --> 00:07:20,319
about what's going on there some people

195
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:22,479
frustrated that we're not

196
00:07:25,670 --> 00:07:25,280
being hard enough on witnesses some

197
00:07:27,029 --> 00:07:25,680
people

198
00:07:28,870 --> 00:07:27,039
frustrated that we're not getting more

199
00:07:30,469 --> 00:07:28,880
reports and i think we've been getting

200
00:07:31,270 --> 00:07:30,479
quite a few reports to be honest with

201
00:07:34,710 --> 00:07:31,280
you

202
00:07:35,110 --> 00:07:34,720
and i and butch is that we just don't

203
00:07:38,550 --> 00:07:35,120
have an

204
00:07:40,870 --> 00:07:38,560
answer to what it is because

205
00:07:42,230 --> 00:07:40,880
this is a different again yet another

206
00:07:44,390 --> 00:07:42,240
different sighting

207
00:07:46,790 --> 00:07:44,400
a different type of sighting that we've

208
00:07:51,029 --> 00:07:46,800
experienced and we've received

209
00:07:52,629 --> 00:07:51,039
yeah yeah i mean it's um

210
00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:52,639
it was interesting you know we had that

211
00:07:55,670 --> 00:07:54,160
layoff of about 10 days

212
00:07:57,430 --> 00:07:55,680
nobody had any report that doesn't mean

213
00:08:00,790 --> 00:07:57,440
it wasn't out there

214
00:08:03,350 --> 00:08:00,800
but uh now we have gotten to report the

215
00:08:05,430 --> 00:08:03,360
last two reports for people that have um

216
00:08:07,110 --> 00:08:05,440
that waited a couple days before they

217
00:08:09,430 --> 00:08:07,120
reported it

218
00:08:11,670 --> 00:08:09,440
uh in fact the one before that was a

219
00:08:14,550 --> 00:08:11,680
couple who had waited a month

220
00:08:16,950 --> 00:08:14,560
so people are kind of hesitant of course

221
00:08:19,350 --> 00:08:16,960
to report it

222
00:08:20,390 --> 00:08:19,360
i i guess if somebody got a photo or

223
00:08:23,110 --> 00:08:20,400
something of it

224
00:08:24,469 --> 00:08:23,120
they'd report it quicker but then again

225
00:08:26,230 --> 00:08:24,479
that may be a

226
00:08:27,670 --> 00:08:26,240
situation where somebody won't report it

227
00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:27,680
at all figuring they're gonna

228
00:08:35,110 --> 00:08:31,120
monetize off of it somehow

229
00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:39,509
the media and the city itself

230
00:08:46,150 --> 00:08:43,440
they've been pretty quiet and uh

231
00:08:48,470 --> 00:08:46,160
that's something else i'm looking into i

232
00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:48,480
i'm just a little surprised

233
00:08:53,190 --> 00:08:51,120
that people are um associated with the

234
00:08:56,230 --> 00:08:53,200
city and the media are just

235
00:08:59,670 --> 00:08:56,240
not wanting to say anything

236
00:09:01,990 --> 00:08:59,680
so um you know i guess it all goes into

237
00:09:03,190 --> 00:09:02,000
this you know but uh

238
00:09:05,030 --> 00:09:03,200
you know it's one of these things where

239
00:09:07,590 --> 00:09:05,040
we just gotta wait and see you know

240
00:09:09,590 --> 00:09:07,600
if something falls in our lap that kind

241
00:09:11,030 --> 00:09:09,600
of gives us an idea of what the hell is

242
00:09:14,470 --> 00:09:11,040
going on then

243
00:09:15,829 --> 00:09:14,480
we'll follow up on it i mean but so far

244
00:09:17,910 --> 00:09:15,839
you know we haven't really gotten a

245
00:09:20,829 --> 00:09:17,920
smoking gun yet but

246
00:09:22,070 --> 00:09:20,839
we've gotten excellent descriptions and

247
00:09:24,389 --> 00:09:22,080
uh

248
00:09:26,150 --> 00:09:24,399
and very good witnesses and to be honest

249
00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:26,160
with you it's too far for me to just get

250
00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:27,839
in my car and go and investigate

251
00:09:32,150 --> 00:09:30,000
you know like it's well it's same here

252
00:09:33,910 --> 00:09:32,160
it's a different

253
00:09:36,870 --> 00:09:33,920
different type of investigation we have

254
00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:36,880
to rely on investigators in that area

255
00:09:40,710 --> 00:09:39,200
to get us and we've got some good ones

256
00:09:41,829 --> 00:09:40,720
out there yeah i mean i've got people

257
00:09:44,310 --> 00:09:41,839
out there that are

258
00:09:45,430 --> 00:09:44,320
helping it tremendously i mean and uh

259
00:09:47,910 --> 00:09:45,440
you know of course

260
00:09:49,110 --> 00:09:47,920
manuel's been getting reports as well so

261
00:09:51,910 --> 00:09:49,120
um

262
00:09:53,430 --> 00:09:51,920
yeah i mean you know we're getting to

263
00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:53,440
talk to people we're getting people to

264
00:09:58,470 --> 00:09:55,440
look into areas

265
00:09:59,829 --> 00:09:58,480
uh i think right now there are three of

266
00:10:02,710 --> 00:09:59,839
us

267
00:10:04,389 --> 00:10:02,720
uh that are looking at things and maybe

268
00:10:05,750 --> 00:10:04,399
some other groups but they're not really

269
00:10:08,630 --> 00:10:05,760
saying much

270
00:10:10,550 --> 00:10:08,640
uh you know i guess when they get some

271
00:10:12,150 --> 00:10:10,560
info they'll let me know about her

272
00:10:14,230 --> 00:10:12,160
won't let me know but either one i don't

273
00:10:17,350 --> 00:10:14,240
know so we'll see

274
00:10:19,590 --> 00:10:17,360
um it doesn't seem anybody else is

275
00:10:22,949 --> 00:10:19,600
reporting anything

276
00:10:25,910 --> 00:10:24,310
i don't know we'll just have to wait and

277
00:10:28,310 --> 00:10:25,920
see what happens well that's all we can

278
00:10:31,190 --> 00:10:28,320
do like report on what we get

279
00:10:31,990 --> 00:10:31,200
disseminate what we get and then we'll

280
00:10:34,790 --> 00:10:32,000
go from there

281
00:10:35,350 --> 00:10:34,800
and who knows where this is gonna lead

282
00:10:37,269 --> 00:10:35,360
us

283
00:10:39,110 --> 00:10:37,279
what kind of uh path this is gonna lead

284
00:10:40,710 --> 00:10:39,120
us down like we've already come up with

285
00:10:44,150 --> 00:10:40,720
some pretty interesting

286
00:10:44,550 --> 00:10:44,160
theories now we just gotta wait and see

287
00:10:53,590 --> 00:10:44,560
what

288
00:10:55,590 --> 00:10:53,600
talk about before we jump into

289
00:10:57,110 --> 00:10:55,600
to the well butch butch got a report

290
00:11:01,190 --> 00:10:57,120
today you want to talk about that but

291
00:11:02,730 --> 00:11:01,200
yeah butch bipedal buddy has made

292
00:11:05,210 --> 00:11:02,740
another sighting

293
00:11:09,269 --> 00:11:05,220
[Music]

294
00:11:12,150 --> 00:11:09,279
[Laughter]

295
00:11:12,790 --> 00:11:12,160
poor james anyway up in mifflin county

296
00:11:14,790 --> 00:11:12,800
uh

297
00:11:16,230 --> 00:11:14,800
the sighting date was the fourth of july

298
00:11:18,710 --> 00:11:16,240
this year

299
00:11:20,550 --> 00:11:18,720
approximately 11 10 a.m number of

300
00:11:23,509 --> 00:11:20,560
witnesses too

301
00:11:24,630 --> 00:11:23,519
a resident and a friend of his who live

302
00:11:27,430 --> 00:11:24,640
in the weikert pa

303
00:11:29,269 --> 00:11:27,440
area were on a designated hiking trail

304
00:11:30,710 --> 00:11:29,279
in the bald eagle state park

305
00:11:32,310 --> 00:11:30,720
when they heard something walking to

306
00:11:34,949 --> 00:11:32,320
their right in the woods

307
00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:34,959
as if it was following them they looked

308
00:11:38,470 --> 00:11:36,560
on several occasions in that direction

309
00:11:39,110 --> 00:11:38,480
but saw nothing and continue to hear the

310
00:11:40,949 --> 00:11:39,120
noise

311
00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:40,959
as if something was walking parallel to

312
00:11:43,670 --> 00:11:42,800
them their first thought it might have

313
00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:43,680
been a deer

314
00:11:46,710 --> 00:11:45,360
but then the substantial noise that was

315
00:11:48,150 --> 00:11:46,720
coming

316
00:11:50,069 --> 00:11:48,160
the second guess was it could have been

317
00:11:51,990 --> 00:11:50,079
a bear now the one gentleman was armed

318
00:11:55,190 --> 00:11:52,000
with a 40 caliber clock pistol so

319
00:11:56,550 --> 00:11:55,200
they continued and heard a sudden

320
00:11:58,949 --> 00:11:56,560
stopping noise

321
00:12:00,710 --> 00:11:58,959
and the noise just ceased they stopped

322
00:12:02,470 --> 00:12:00,720
to look around there was nothing visible

323
00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:02,480
to the right or left

324
00:12:05,910 --> 00:12:04,000
then they turned around to look behind

325
00:12:08,069 --> 00:12:05,920
them and approximately 50 yards

326
00:12:09,590 --> 00:12:08,079
behind them stood a large animal they

327
00:12:11,590 --> 00:12:09,600
first thought was a bear standing on his

328
00:12:13,350 --> 00:12:11,600
hind legs but quickly quickly realized

329
00:12:15,030 --> 00:12:13,360
it was not a bear

330
00:12:16,550 --> 00:12:15,040
witness description was a large

331
00:12:18,629 --> 00:12:16,560
wolf-like head with

332
00:12:20,629 --> 00:12:18,639
short pointed ears eight to ten foot

333
00:12:23,509 --> 00:12:20,639
tall long muscular human-like

334
00:12:25,750 --> 00:12:23,519
arms and hands massive chest very thin

335
00:12:29,190 --> 00:12:25,760
around the waist area muscular legs

336
00:12:32,629 --> 00:12:29,200
and the knees down what looked like

337
00:12:34,150 --> 00:12:32,639
the dog's hind legs hocked its coat was

338
00:12:35,590 --> 00:12:34,160
very short and dark brown

339
00:12:38,790 --> 00:12:35,600
could have been black but it looked

340
00:12:40,310 --> 00:12:38,800
brown it made no movement toward them

341
00:12:42,310 --> 00:12:40,320
but just kept staring at them

342
00:12:44,710 --> 00:12:42,320
what with what is described by the

343
00:12:46,470 --> 00:12:44,720
witnesses bright yellowish eyes

344
00:12:48,310 --> 00:12:46,480
they started back to the area where they

345
00:12:50,069 --> 00:12:48,320
had left their vehicle

346
00:12:52,310 --> 00:12:50,079
and looking back constantly but it was

347
00:12:54,310 --> 00:12:52,320
not there

348
00:12:55,910 --> 00:12:54,320
but again they heard the following to

349
00:12:58,069 --> 00:12:55,920
the right

350
00:12:59,829 --> 00:12:58,079
parallel to where they were walking and

351
00:13:01,190 --> 00:12:59,839
there was noise as before emitting from

352
00:13:03,030 --> 00:13:01,200
the woods

353
00:13:04,550 --> 00:13:03,040
upon arriving from their vehicle to

354
00:13:06,470 --> 00:13:04,560
their vehicle there

355
00:13:07,590 --> 00:13:06,480
stood in the tree line watching them as

356
00:13:10,710 --> 00:13:07,600
they stayed

357
00:13:13,750 --> 00:13:10,720
and was still and just stayed there

358
00:13:17,190 --> 00:13:13,760
until they left the area

359
00:13:18,829 --> 00:13:17,200
um the gentleman is one gentleman

360
00:13:20,550 --> 00:13:18,839
is familiar with the woods he works with

361
00:13:23,750 --> 00:13:20,560
dcnr

362
00:13:26,550 --> 00:13:23,760
and he would also like to remain

363
00:13:28,790 --> 00:13:26,560
anonymous of course because of his job

364
00:13:30,150 --> 00:13:28,800
but he did leave us contact information

365
00:13:32,790 --> 00:13:30,160
if we needed more information

366
00:13:34,150 --> 00:13:32,800
his companion on the other hand is

367
00:13:35,990 --> 00:13:34,160
shaken up to the point where i think

368
00:13:36,870 --> 00:13:36,000
he's just about ready to sell his hiking

369
00:13:39,910 --> 00:13:36,880
boots

370
00:13:42,629 --> 00:13:39,920
oh wow um

371
00:13:44,470 --> 00:13:42,639
the description is as all that we've

372
00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:44,480
gotten

373
00:13:49,750 --> 00:13:48,240
no different this the terrain up there

374
00:13:52,230 --> 00:13:49,760
is very heavily wooded and heavy

375
00:13:54,870 --> 00:13:52,240
undergrowth

376
00:13:56,550 --> 00:13:54,880
and bald state a bald eagle state park

377
00:13:59,350 --> 00:13:56,560
it just connects to so many

378
00:14:00,629 --> 00:13:59,360
different state parks and forests and

379
00:14:03,590 --> 00:14:00,639
directly west of

380
00:14:05,189 --> 00:14:03,600
of that siding area is where we had the

381
00:14:07,269 --> 00:14:05,199
one siding where the

382
00:14:10,790 --> 00:14:07,279
young lady watched it at her standing at

383
00:14:15,829 --> 00:14:10,800
her pond for about 10 or 15 minutes

384
00:14:17,189 --> 00:14:15,839
so this is just about when they started

385
00:14:18,949 --> 00:14:17,199
in previous reports

386
00:14:20,389 --> 00:14:18,959
they seem to start toward the middle or

387
00:14:23,509 --> 00:14:20,399
the end of the summer

388
00:14:25,030 --> 00:14:23,519
and go into uh the fall

389
00:14:28,829 --> 00:14:25,040
and then they're kind of silent during

390
00:14:35,110 --> 00:14:32,230
so there we go it's on the list

391
00:14:37,430 --> 00:14:35,120
you know what i find interesting guys is

392
00:14:40,629 --> 00:14:37,440
the last couple years the amount

393
00:14:42,829 --> 00:14:40,639
of people that have worked with the dcnr

394
00:14:44,230 --> 00:14:42,839
that are coming forward to report

395
00:14:45,990 --> 00:14:44,240
strange

396
00:14:48,470 --> 00:14:46,000
creature sightings in the woods of

397
00:14:49,990 --> 00:14:48,480
pennsylvania

398
00:14:51,750 --> 00:14:50,000
i mean there's been this third one

399
00:14:54,629 --> 00:14:51,760
pennsylvania uh

400
00:14:55,829 --> 00:14:54,639
and you know i had a gentleman make

401
00:14:59,110 --> 00:14:55,839
contact with us

402
00:15:00,949 --> 00:14:59,120
a couple years back uh about a bigfoot

403
00:15:03,189 --> 00:15:00,959
sighting that they had and and

404
00:15:05,189 --> 00:15:03,199
you know again these guys work for the

405
00:15:08,550 --> 00:15:05,199
fish and game the dc and r

406
00:15:09,590 --> 00:15:08,560
like these are the kind of reports that

407
00:15:13,350 --> 00:15:09,600
are telling to me

408
00:15:15,350 --> 00:15:13,360
because their gentlemen or women that

409
00:15:16,790 --> 00:15:15,360
are used to working in a professional

410
00:15:18,629 --> 00:15:16,800
outdoor setting

411
00:15:20,310 --> 00:15:18,639
very familiar with the creatures that

412
00:15:22,470 --> 00:15:20,320
inhabit the woods of pennsylvania the

413
00:15:23,990 --> 00:15:22,480
wildlife of pennsylvania

414
00:15:26,230 --> 00:15:24,000
and they see something that they can't

415
00:15:26,870 --> 00:15:26,240
explain why do people have a hard time

416
00:15:30,150 --> 00:15:26,880
with that

417
00:15:33,189 --> 00:15:30,160
like that there would never

418
00:15:34,069 --> 00:15:33,199
be a a better example of an expert

419
00:15:36,629 --> 00:15:34,079
witness

420
00:15:38,150 --> 00:15:36,639
you know what i'm saying like it's just

421
00:15:39,350 --> 00:15:38,160
so telling i don't understand why people

422
00:15:40,710 --> 00:15:39,360
have a hard time with those sighting

423
00:15:42,470 --> 00:15:40,720
reports

424
00:15:44,870 --> 00:15:42,480
and it's kind of funny because in the

425
00:15:47,509 --> 00:15:44,880
last i think on what three months we've

426
00:15:50,790 --> 00:15:47,519
gotten two contacts

427
00:15:52,790 --> 00:15:50,800
from uh the dcnr and both individuals

428
00:15:54,470 --> 00:15:52,800
are willing to help

429
00:15:55,990 --> 00:15:54,480
well butch another thing that's funny

430
00:15:56,949 --> 00:15:56,000
about that and you and i have just

431
00:15:59,189 --> 00:15:56,959
talked about this

432
00:16:00,949 --> 00:15:59,199
you know a couple of months ago is the

433
00:16:02,389 --> 00:16:00,959
amount of people that have retired from

434
00:16:05,030 --> 00:16:02,399
law enforcement that want to be a part

435
00:16:07,749 --> 00:16:05,040
of what we're doing

436
00:16:09,509 --> 00:16:07,759
it's amazing that these guys want to put

437
00:16:11,430 --> 00:16:09,519
their skills to use

438
00:16:14,389 --> 00:16:11,440
in a field where we desperately need

439
00:16:18,069 --> 00:16:14,399
this type of investigation

440
00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:18,079
and uh it's incredible so this is

441
00:16:21,590 --> 00:16:20,240
an expert report in my mind of what

442
00:16:22,949 --> 00:16:21,600
we're talking about here i'm familiar

443
00:16:24,310 --> 00:16:22,959
with the area

444
00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:24,320
that you guys are talking about my

445
00:16:31,910 --> 00:16:28,160
wife's family had a cabin out that way

446
00:16:34,389 --> 00:16:31,920
and it's it's

447
00:16:35,749 --> 00:16:34,399
pretty it can be pretty pretty wild out

448
00:16:37,350 --> 00:16:35,759
there

449
00:16:39,269 --> 00:16:37,360
yeah well i was looking at i was doing

450
00:16:42,550 --> 00:16:39,279
some searches today in the areas

451
00:16:42,870 --> 00:16:42,560
and um it's it's as heavily wooded if

452
00:16:44,470 --> 00:16:42,880
not

453
00:16:47,910 --> 00:16:44,480
more because there's a lot of heavy

454
00:16:51,269 --> 00:16:47,920
undergrowth there than clearfield county

455
00:16:53,910 --> 00:16:51,279
and it seems like uh

456
00:16:55,509 --> 00:16:53,920
there are very few walking trails or

457
00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:55,519
fishing streams there

458
00:16:59,110 --> 00:16:57,360
unlike clearfield county and other

459
00:17:02,629 --> 00:16:59,120
clinton county and other counties

460
00:17:04,710 --> 00:17:02,639
but um you know it's the distance

461
00:17:05,750 --> 00:17:04,720
i mean from if if we just think about

462
00:17:07,829 --> 00:17:05,760
just for a second

463
00:17:10,069 --> 00:17:07,839
you know we got the strange screams

464
00:17:11,829 --> 00:17:10,079
happening up in your area

465
00:17:13,590 --> 00:17:11,839
and you draw a line down to that area

466
00:17:15,590 --> 00:17:13,600
it's not very far

467
00:17:16,710 --> 00:17:15,600
and you draw a line over to port matilda

468
00:17:19,270 --> 00:17:16,720
where we had the

469
00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:19,280
sighting of the creature by the pond and

470
00:17:21,750 --> 00:17:20,640
take that point and take it up to

471
00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:21,760
clearfield

472
00:17:26,309 --> 00:17:24,880
it's not a very very big area at all

473
00:17:29,029 --> 00:17:26,319
and all these state parks and state

474
00:17:30,830 --> 00:17:29,039
forests they all connect each other

475
00:17:33,029 --> 00:17:30,840
i mean they're all connected one way or

476
00:17:35,190 --> 00:17:33,039
another

477
00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:35,200
to make that trip you're talking you're

478
00:17:39,029 --> 00:17:36,799
talking about an eight or nine hour trip

479
00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:39,039
to make a complete circle

480
00:17:42,310 --> 00:17:40,320
yeah through there don't you think i

481
00:17:44,150 --> 00:17:42,320
mean so it's not i mean it's

482
00:17:46,630 --> 00:17:44,160
it's not a large area but it's a it's a

483
00:17:48,710 --> 00:17:46,640
large area i mean oh yeah if you

484
00:17:50,070 --> 00:17:48,720
if you did a circle if you if you you

485
00:17:51,590 --> 00:17:50,080
know made a circle came back to where

486
00:17:53,590 --> 00:17:51,600
you started absolutely eight or nine

487
00:17:58,789 --> 00:17:53,600
hours

488
00:18:02,150 --> 00:17:59,909
i think that's what people take for

489
00:18:04,710 --> 00:18:02,160
granted i think this particular setting

490
00:18:06,310 --> 00:18:04,720
um and that's why i was talking to butch

491
00:18:09,110 --> 00:18:06,320
about it last night i i

492
00:18:11,430 --> 00:18:09,120
it sounds to me like this thing had um

493
00:18:14,630 --> 00:18:11,440
was protecting something uh you know

494
00:18:19,029 --> 00:18:14,640
maybe a young juvenile or whatever

495
00:18:21,750 --> 00:18:19,039
uh but you know the fact that it circled

496
00:18:22,630 --> 00:18:21,760
past them and got to the location where

497
00:18:24,870 --> 00:18:22,640
they

498
00:18:26,070 --> 00:18:24,880
ended up at this thing was keeping an

499
00:18:28,870 --> 00:18:26,080
eye on them

500
00:18:30,549 --> 00:18:28,880
oh yeah so yeah this thing was you know

501
00:18:33,830 --> 00:18:30,559
i i really i really believe

502
00:18:34,870 --> 00:18:33,840
it was watching something well and i had

503
00:18:36,870 --> 00:18:34,880
i had asked the witness

504
00:18:38,390 --> 00:18:36,880
if you know if he heard any noise in the

505
00:18:38,950 --> 00:18:38,400
woods while they were walking down

506
00:18:40,390 --> 00:18:38,960
through

507
00:18:42,390 --> 00:18:40,400
or when they made their turn around to

508
00:18:44,230 --> 00:18:42,400
come back he said no he said

509
00:18:45,510 --> 00:18:44,240
pretty much we were you know we went all

510
00:18:45,830 --> 00:18:45,520
the way down we didn't hear anything at

511
00:18:48,630 --> 00:18:45,840
all

512
00:18:49,510 --> 00:18:48,640
and then um when they made their turn

513
00:18:51,590 --> 00:18:49,520
around to

514
00:18:52,950 --> 00:18:51,600
go back toward the vehicle that's what

515
00:18:54,390 --> 00:18:52,960
the minute they turned around and

516
00:18:56,470 --> 00:18:54,400
started going back

517
00:18:57,750 --> 00:18:56,480
is when the noise of something walking

518
00:18:59,350 --> 00:18:57,760
and like the guy said he said my first

519
00:19:01,190 --> 00:18:59,360
thought was a deer

520
00:19:03,270 --> 00:19:01,200
but he said then it was just too heavy

521
00:19:04,549 --> 00:19:03,280
too much noise for a deer

522
00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:04,559
and then that's when he figured it might

523
00:19:07,830 --> 00:19:06,320
have been a bear and even when they

524
00:19:09,430 --> 00:19:07,840
didn't see it behind him

525
00:19:11,350 --> 00:19:09,440
fred's first thought was it was a bear

526
00:19:17,029 --> 00:19:11,360
standing up but

527
00:19:21,110 --> 00:19:19,190
yeah it's incredible well that's a good

528
00:19:22,789 --> 00:19:21,120
story and again these are the things i

529
00:19:24,230 --> 00:19:22,799
talk about

530
00:19:26,230 --> 00:19:24,240
when you know i sound like a broken

531
00:19:30,470 --> 00:19:26,240
record here expert witness

532
00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:30,480
testimony from experienced field people

533
00:19:33,190 --> 00:19:31,440
and

534
00:19:34,950 --> 00:19:33,200
they don't get much better than that it

535
00:19:36,390 --> 00:19:34,960
goes right into that and fits right in

536
00:19:41,909 --> 00:19:36,400
that area but

537
00:19:45,430 --> 00:19:44,549
more to come on this one folks but guys

538
00:19:47,990 --> 00:19:45,440
we haven't

539
00:19:51,029 --> 00:19:48,000
go ahead butcher until until this day we

540
00:19:53,590 --> 00:19:51,039
have nothing outside that loop

541
00:19:55,430 --> 00:19:53,600
historical report but i mean as far as

542
00:19:57,750 --> 00:19:55,440
recent reports outside that loop we have

543
00:20:01,830 --> 00:20:00,310
yeah within the last two years they're

544
00:20:06,070 --> 00:20:01,840
all within there i mean it's

545
00:20:07,990 --> 00:20:06,080

546
00:20:09,430 --> 00:20:08,000
however it's getting there or what it's

547

i mean it's a big area but still i mean

549
00:20:19,750 --> 00:20:17,039
they're staying within that area itself

550
00:20:21,190 --> 00:20:19,760
but you know if you look at if you look

551
00:20:23,110 --> 00:20:21,200

00:22:29,909 --> 00:22:27,840
right off the bfrl website so you guys

611
00:22:31,830 --> 00:22:29,919

612
00:22:34,710 --> 00:22:31,840
this

613
00:22:36,950 --> 00:22:34,720
and it's in the the saban river bottoms

614
00:22:38,470 --> 00:22:36,960
i was hog hunting from a tree stand next

615
00:22:40,789 --> 00:22:38,480
to the sabin river

616
00:22:43,029 --> 00:22:40,799
i had gone to my stand at around 5 30

617
00:22:44,710 --> 00:22:43,039
a.m put out apple slices and table

618
00:22:46,390 --> 00:22:44,720
scrubs to hold the hogs for a few

619
00:22:48,230 --> 00:22:46,400
minutes for a shot

620
00:22:49,990 --> 00:22:48,240
i got in my tree stand and waited for

621
00:22:50,870 --> 00:22:50,000
the woods to settle down and the sun to

622
00:22:53,590 --> 00:22:50,880
rise

623
00:22:55,990 --> 00:22:53,600
at sunup i heard hogs rooting around

624
00:22:57,669 --> 00:22:56,000
working the river's edge towards me

625
00:23:00,789 --> 00:22:57,679
i could first see them to my left at

626
00:23:02,789 --> 00:23:00,799
about 45 degrees about 50 yards out

627
00:23:04,870 --> 00:23:02,799
no clear shot waiting for them to get to

628
00:23:08,470 --> 00:23:04,880
my bait area i noticed movement to my

629
00:23:10,789 --> 00:23:08,480
right about 80 yards out putting my

630
00:23:12,470 --> 00:23:10,799
rifle scope on it i could see only the

631
00:23:14,710 --> 00:23:12,480
side of something's face

632
00:23:16,230 --> 00:23:14,720
it was dark hair covered and slowly

633
00:23:18,310 --> 00:23:16,240
moving its head around looking in the

634
00:23:20,230 --> 00:23:18,320
direction of the hogs

635
00:23:23,110 --> 00:23:20,240
at this time it quickly moved to another

636
00:23:23,669 --> 00:23:23,120
tree i could see most of its body it was

637
00:23:25,830 --> 00:23:23,679
huge

638
00:23:28,950 --> 00:23:25,840
standing on two legs slowly looking

639
00:23:30,789 --> 00:23:28,960
around the tree at the hogs

640
00:23:32,549 --> 00:23:30,799
at this time i was quite afraid but

641
00:23:33,590 --> 00:23:32,559
tried to keep my scope on it to study

642
00:23:35,350 --> 00:23:33,600
its features

643
00:23:36,950 --> 00:23:35,360
the hogs were still feeding towards my

644
00:23:38,149 --> 00:23:36,960
bait area and the animal was working

645
00:23:40,470 --> 00:23:38,159
towards the hogs

646
00:23:42,230 --> 00:23:40,480
and moved quickly and it disappeared it

647
00:23:44,149 --> 00:23:42,240
quickly reappeared moving to another

648
00:23:46,789 --> 00:23:44,159
tree still looking at the hogs

649
00:23:48,549 --> 00:23:46,799
i could again study its features at this

650
00:23:51,430 --> 00:23:48,559
time i was quite afraid to keep

651
00:23:53,350 --> 00:23:51,440
my uh tried afraid but i kept trying to

652
00:23:55,110 --> 00:23:53,360
keep my scope on

653
00:23:57,029 --> 00:23:55,120
its movement from tree to tree was it

654
00:23:59,830 --> 00:23:57,039
quickly planting at the base of

655
00:24:01,430 --> 00:23:59,840
of the next tree on two feet standing

656
00:24:02,710 --> 00:24:01,440
behind the tree and slowly looking

657
00:24:04,390 --> 00:24:02,720
around at the hogs

658
00:24:06,470 --> 00:24:04,400
this continued for several minutes until

659
00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:06,480
they were about 30 yards apart and

660
00:24:09,510 --> 00:24:08,080
almost directly in front of me at about

661
00:24:11,669 --> 00:24:09,520
40 yards

662
00:24:13,510 --> 00:24:11,679
the animal dropped to all fours bunched

663
00:24:15,830 --> 00:24:13,520
up its rear legs and leaped

664
00:24:17,510 --> 00:24:15,840
it took two leaps to reach the hogs and

665
00:24:19,510 --> 00:24:17,520
it screamed during the second leap

666
00:24:21,590 --> 00:24:19,520
causing the hogs to panic for a split

667
00:24:25,190 --> 00:24:21,600
second

668
00:24:26,549 --> 00:24:25,200
one hog on its side

669
00:24:29,190 --> 00:24:26,559
knocking it through the air into the

670
00:24:31,110 --> 00:24:29,200
side of a tree as the squealing hog

671
00:24:33,190 --> 00:24:31,120
bounced off the tree it pounced on it

672
00:24:34,870 --> 00:24:33,200
beating it with its fists like a person

673
00:24:36,630 --> 00:24:34,880
pounding on a desk

674
00:24:39,750 --> 00:24:36,640
i could hear bones crunching with each

675
00:24:41,750 --> 00:24:39,760
hip as this happened very fast

676
00:24:44,310 --> 00:24:41,760
all this happened very fast about four

677
00:24:46,310 --> 00:24:44,320
seconds from first leap to the dead hog

678
00:24:47,430 --> 00:24:46,320
the quickness of the attack was very

679
00:24:49,830 --> 00:24:47,440
unnerving

680
00:24:51,750 --> 00:24:49,840
the three live hogs were in full flight

681
00:24:53,269 --> 00:24:51,760
the animal picked up the dead hog

682
00:24:56,310 --> 00:24:53,279
tucked it under its arm and started

683
00:24:58,630 --> 00:24:56,320
walking off and let out a noise like

684
00:25:00,470 --> 00:24:58,640
[Music]

685
00:25:02,950 --> 00:25:00,480
it was immediately answered from about

686
00:25:06,230 --> 00:25:02,960
200 to 300 yards out by a shorter

687
00:25:08,070 --> 00:25:06,240
whoop whoop after a couple more steps in

688
00:25:09,750 --> 00:25:08,080
the direction of the answer it stopped

689
00:25:12,710 --> 00:25:09,760
dropped the hog and turned to look

690
00:25:14,630 --> 00:25:12,720
past me it turned back to my tree and it

691
00:25:17,110 --> 00:25:14,640
raised its head to look at me

692
00:25:18,870 --> 00:25:17,120
i have never been more afraid of my life

693
00:25:20,149 --> 00:25:18,880
i tried to keep the scope on its head in

694
00:25:22,230 --> 00:25:20,159
case it came after me

695
00:25:24,789 --> 00:25:22,240
it looked at me cocked its head to one

696
00:25:26,230 --> 00:25:24,799
side its face had a curious expression

697
00:25:28,789 --> 00:25:26,240
as if studying me

698
00:25:31,110 --> 00:25:28,799
it opened its mouth showing its teeth

699
00:25:33,110 --> 00:25:31,120
letting out a soft mer sound

700
00:25:34,789 --> 00:25:33,120
and then turned back to pick up the hog

701
00:25:37,669 --> 00:25:34,799
and walked off in no hurry as if i

702
00:25:42,070 --> 00:25:39,590
i was looking through it at a three by

703
00:25:43,669 --> 00:25:42,080
nine scope originally set on three power

704
00:25:45,269 --> 00:25:43,679
for the hunt but it turned up to nine

705
00:25:47,350 --> 00:25:45,279
power after first trying to see the

706
00:25:49,029 --> 00:25:47,360
object approaching from my right

707
00:25:51,190 --> 00:25:49,039
after that time i was afraid to make the

708
00:25:51,990 --> 00:25:51,200
movement necessary to take scope off 9

709
00:25:53,830 --> 00:25:52,000
power

710
00:25:56,470 --> 00:25:53,840
i sat in my tree stand for another 30

711
00:25:58,710 --> 00:25:56,480
minutes or so trying to calm myself

712
00:26:00,149 --> 00:25:58,720
after concluding that that if it wanted

713
00:26:01,269 --> 00:26:00,159
me it would have already slapped me out

714
00:26:02,950 --> 00:26:01,279
of my tree stand

715
00:26:04,390 --> 00:26:02,960
i got down and went to find my hunting

716
00:26:05,590 --> 00:26:04,400
partner who was about a quarter to a

717
00:26:07,510 --> 00:26:05,600
half mile away

718
00:26:09,190 --> 00:26:07,520
he heard the attack scream in both

719
00:26:12,630 --> 00:26:09,200
whooping calls

720
00:26:17,029 --> 00:26:15,669
yeah man

721
00:26:18,950 --> 00:26:17,039
i would have had a heart attack in my

722
00:26:20,470 --> 00:26:18,960
tree stand

723
00:26:24,310 --> 00:26:20,480
now i wonder how many people would have

724
00:26:25,590 --> 00:26:24,320
took a shot and then again you know

725
00:26:27,590 --> 00:26:25,600
every time i hear something like that

726
00:26:29,190 --> 00:26:27,600
nobody wants to take a shot at it no but

727
00:26:32,149 --> 00:26:29,200
it's the same thing with a camera right

728
00:26:33,110 --> 00:26:32,159
they see this and it's almost like uh

729
00:26:35,190 --> 00:26:33,120
you're just so

730
00:26:36,870 --> 00:26:35,200
caught up in the moment either through

731
00:26:38,630 --> 00:26:36,880
adrenaline or fear

732
00:26:40,789 --> 00:26:38,640
that you're just afraid to move i don't

733
00:26:42,070 --> 00:26:40,799
know if it even if you're even thinking

734
00:26:44,870 --> 00:26:42,080
about it in that moment

735
00:26:45,830 --> 00:26:44,880
like yeah yeah i think you're right i

736
00:26:48,070 --> 00:26:45,840
mean you know

737
00:26:49,750 --> 00:26:48,080
it seems like that to me and when people

738
00:26:52,630 --> 00:26:49,760
see these things

739
00:26:54,149 --> 00:26:52,640
uh you know because you know nowadays of

740
00:26:56,070 --> 00:26:54,159
course there's the means to take over

741
00:26:57,590 --> 00:26:56,080
shot with it but people just don't

742
00:26:59,190 --> 00:26:57,600
like you say they don't even think about

743
00:27:01,190 --> 00:26:59,200
it doesn't even dawn on them

744
00:27:03,029 --> 00:27:01,200
but you're seeing something that doesn't

745
00:27:05,190 --> 00:27:03,039
exist for the first time

746
00:27:07,110 --> 00:27:05,200
right and you just witnessed it kill a

747
00:27:08,870 --> 00:27:07,120
freaking hog

748
00:27:10,149 --> 00:27:08,880
like the first thing i'm not going to

749
00:27:11,269 --> 00:27:10,159
think about is pulling the trigger to

750
00:27:13,190 --> 00:27:11,279
put one down i mean

751
00:27:15,190 --> 00:27:13,200
i'm not a hunter but i wouldn't think

752
00:27:17,269 --> 00:27:15,200
that go ahead butch

753
00:27:18,789 --> 00:27:17,279
well what i was going to say is you know

754
00:27:20,310 --> 00:27:18,799
i had that problem when i first started

755
00:27:21,430 --> 00:27:20,320
with these bipedals you know how would i

756
00:27:23,029 --> 00:27:21,440
get a picture

757
00:27:24,549 --> 00:27:23,039
because like you said you're going to

758
00:27:26,470 --> 00:27:24,559
possibly see something you've never seen

759
00:27:27,750 --> 00:27:26,480
before or thought existed

760
00:27:30,230 --> 00:27:27,760
and you're not going to worry about the

761
00:27:31,430 --> 00:27:30,240
camera that's going to be the last thing

762
00:27:34,149 --> 00:27:31,440
on your mind

763
00:27:35,669 --> 00:27:34,159
so i guess that's why we went with

764
00:27:38,149 --> 00:27:35,679
everything automatic that the cameras

765
00:27:40,310 --> 00:27:38,159
will keep rolling no matter what happens

766
00:27:41,830 --> 00:27:40,320
uh plus the body cams that we're wearing

767
00:27:42,950 --> 00:27:41,840
you know everything's gonna be recorded

768
00:27:44,950 --> 00:27:42,960
so

769
00:27:46,149 --> 00:27:44,960
even if we do come face to face or do

770
00:27:48,230 --> 00:27:46,159
spot one

771
00:27:49,350 --> 00:27:48,240
uh we don't have to worry about you know

772
00:27:51,269 --> 00:27:49,360
somebody grabbing a

773
00:27:52,710 --> 00:27:51,279
camera and taking a shot the

774
00:27:54,149 --> 00:27:52,720
surveillance cameras and

775
00:27:56,070 --> 00:27:54,159
the digital and the floor cameras will

776
00:27:58,789 --> 00:27:56,080
be doing the work for us

777
00:28:00,070 --> 00:27:58,799
and but that i find you know almost even

778
00:28:02,230 --> 00:28:00,080
with ufo sightings

779
00:28:04,310 --> 00:28:02,240
you know great sightings and great

780
00:28:06,549 --> 00:28:04,320
descriptions and

781
00:28:07,750 --> 00:28:06,559
did you get a picture uh no i forgot all

782
00:28:09,669 --> 00:28:07,760
about my camera

783
00:28:11,190 --> 00:28:09,679
or uh you know some of the bigfoot

784
00:28:13,750 --> 00:28:11,200
sightings where

785
00:28:15,350 --> 00:28:13,760
you know they just don't get a picture

786
00:28:15,990 --> 00:28:15,360
they give you a description everything

787
00:28:17,350 --> 00:28:16,000
what happened

788
00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:17,360
how it happened how big it what it

789
00:28:20,870 --> 00:28:19,360
looked like blah blah blah but they

790
00:28:22,710 --> 00:28:20,880
never get to that point where

791
00:28:24,950 --> 00:28:22,720
they actually had the camera in their

792
00:28:26,549 --> 00:28:24,960
hands and picked it up and used it

793
00:28:29,590 --> 00:28:26,559
and if they did they were shaking so bad

794
00:28:33,590 --> 00:28:29,600
all you gots one big blurry green

795
00:28:36,870 --> 00:28:33,600

well get out there and take one it

802
00:29:00,870 --> 00:28:58,630
it just doesn't work that way i wish it

803
00:29:03,430 --> 00:29:00,880
did yeah anyway

804
00:29:05,590 --> 00:29:03,440
but it just doesn't work that way and

805
00:29:07,269 --> 00:29:05,600
i'm not saying that for a lazy excuse of

806
00:29:10,830 --> 00:29:07,279
not having any evidence

807
00:29:13,029 --> 00:29:10,840
i'm just saying put yourself in that

808
00:29:14,710 --> 00:29:13,039
position

809
00:29:16,549 --> 00:29:14,720
and just think about it seriously not

810
00:29:18,389 --> 00:29:16,559
even be you know trying to be super [\h__\h]

811
00:29:19,990 --> 00:29:18,399
out there just think about it you know

812
00:29:22,070 --> 00:29:20,000
put yourself in that position in the

813
00:29:24,389 --> 00:29:22,080
minute in the moment

814
00:29:26,549 --> 00:29:24,399
and think about your ability to be able

815
00:29:27,990 --> 00:29:26,559
to do what you're asking somebody to do

816
00:29:29,190 --> 00:29:28,000
i just don't know if it's possible

817
00:29:31,110 --> 00:29:29,200
because i don't think our brains are

818
00:29:34,549 --> 00:29:31,120
wired that way

819
00:29:39,029 --> 00:29:36,789
well well i got here's one of my

820
00:29:40,789 --> 00:29:39,039
favorites so that was a ruby creek

821
00:29:43,190 --> 00:29:40,799
oh ruby creek go ahead story time with

822
00:29:48,630 --> 00:29:46,389
uh jeannie chapman was startled one

823
00:29:50,630 --> 00:29:48,640
afternoon in september of 1941

824
00:29:52,070 --> 00:29:50,640
when her young son came home terrified

825
00:29:53,430 --> 00:29:52,080
claiming to have seen a cow

826
00:29:56,630 --> 00:29:53,440
coming out of the woods next to the

827
00:29:58,470 --> 00:29:56,640
house perplexed as to why a cow

828
00:30:00,149 --> 00:29:58,480
would have her child so scared jeannie

829
00:30:02,870 --> 00:30:00,159
walked out onto the porch

830
00:30:03,750 --> 00:30:02,880
where she saw a very large dark shaped

831
00:30:05,909 --> 00:30:03,760
figure moving

832
00:30:07,190 --> 00:30:05,919
through the woods and the underbrush

833
00:30:09,669 --> 00:30:07,200
thinking it was a bear

834
00:30:11,269 --> 00:30:09,679
she called the other two children inside

835
00:30:13,190 --> 00:30:11,279
but after realizing

836
00:30:15,029 --> 00:30:13,200
it had been spotted the creature raised

837
00:30:16,870 --> 00:30:15,039
up on its full height

838
00:30:18,230 --> 00:30:16,880
on two legs and stared straight ahead at

839
00:30:20,230 --> 00:30:18,240
the shock family

840
00:30:22,149 --> 00:30:20,240
jeannie realized that this was no bear

841
00:30:23,830 --> 00:30:22,159
instead she described it as a giant man

842
00:30:26,950 --> 00:30:23,840
covered in dark brown hair

843
00:30:27,830 --> 00:30:26,960
the yuji beast became began to head

844
00:30:30,710 --> 00:30:27,840
toward

845
00:30:31,909 --> 00:30:30,720
the home and jeannie grabbed the kids

846
00:30:33,669 --> 00:30:31,919
and they took off

847
00:30:36,149 --> 00:30:33,679
down the road to the nearby town where

848
00:30:37,590 --> 00:30:36,159
she took some refuge with friends

849
00:30:39,830 --> 00:30:37,600
there she exclaimed that her husband

850
00:30:41,669 --> 00:30:39,840
george would soon arrive home from work

851
00:30:44,149 --> 00:30:41,679
and the creature may be waiting for him

852
00:30:47,510 --> 00:30:44,159
luckily by the time george did get home

853
00:30:47,909 --> 00:30:47,520
the bigfoot was gone but his home had

854
00:30:50,870 --> 00:30:47,919
been

855
00:30:53,110 --> 00:30:50,880
destroyed the front door was smashed in

856
00:30:54,710 --> 00:30:53,120
a 55-gallon drum of dried fish had been

857
00:30:55,990 --> 00:30:54,720
smashed open and most of its contents

858
00:30:57,830 --> 00:30:56,000
were eaten

859
00:30:59,430 --> 00:30:57,840
after reuniting with his family george

860
00:31:00,070 --> 00:30:59,440
gathered a group of men with guns and

861
00:31:02,549 --> 00:31:00,080
dogs

862
00:31:04,230 --> 00:31:02,559
to wait in his house the next night to

863
00:31:05,990 --> 00:31:04,240
see if the creature would return

864
00:31:07,990 --> 00:31:06,000
and while at one point in the night the

865
00:31:09,190 --> 00:31:08,000
dogs went berserk nobody ever spotted

866
00:31:11,029 --> 00:31:09,200
the creature

867
00:31:13,190 --> 00:31:11,039
only its huge footprints in the dirt the

868
00:31:14,549 --> 00:31:13,200
next morning the chapman's no longer

869
00:31:15,990 --> 00:31:14,559
feeling safe in their own home moved

870
00:31:17,029 --> 00:31:16,000
away from ruby creek the following

871
00:31:19,590 --> 00:31:17,039
summer

872
00:31:21,269 --> 00:31:19,600
but this is not where the story ends

873
00:31:21,750 --> 00:31:21,279
some native american traditions state

874
00:31:24,710 --> 00:31:21,760
that

875
00:31:26,870 --> 00:31:24,720
to see a bigfoot is a bad omen and those

876
00:31:28,630 --> 00:31:26,880
who encounter one will die soon

877
00:31:30,549 --> 00:31:28,640
the chapman's youngest daughter died of

878
00:31:32,950 --> 00:31:30,559
an illness just the following year

879
00:31:35,110 --> 00:31:32,960
and their two sons as well as genie and

880
00:31:36,230 --> 00:31:35,120
george were all drowned when their canoe

881
00:31:38,549 --> 00:31:36,240
capsized

882
00:31:40,549 --> 00:31:38,559
in the river every member of the chapman

883
00:31:44,950 --> 00:31:40,559
family was dead just three years after

884
00:31:49,750 --> 00:31:46,870
[\h__\h] i saw a bigfoot i hope to god

885
00:31:55,350 --> 00:31:51,830
that's been 30 years ago though so i

886
00:31:59,430 --> 00:31:58,950
you're up lon well you know i'm gonna

887
00:32:03,029 --> 00:31:59,440
read

888
00:32:06,389 --> 00:32:03,039
by some of the uh

889
00:32:09,870 --> 00:32:06,399
the listeners uh here's an account

890
00:32:13,029 --> 00:32:09,880
by gentleman named blaine he said in may

891
00:32:15,430 --> 00:32:13,039
2016 i hiked the seldom used park trail

892
00:32:18,389 --> 00:32:15,440
in ottawa valley region

893
00:32:18,789 --> 00:32:18,399
around 9 00 a.m about midway i came

894
00:32:21,909 --> 00:32:18,799
across

895
00:32:23,669 --> 00:32:21,919
a small five foot arch of a young tree

896
00:32:26,230 --> 00:32:23,679
that bent over the trail

897
00:32:27,830 --> 00:32:26,240
the tree was only an inch or so thick

898
00:32:29,830 --> 00:32:27,840
and could have been naturally occurring

899
00:32:31,509 --> 00:32:29,840
i took a couple picks walked on the arch

900
00:32:35,990 --> 00:32:31,519
without disturbing it

901
00:32:38,789 --> 00:32:36,000
and continued on the height continued on

902
00:32:41,269 --> 00:32:38,799
to its end point a small resting spot

903
00:32:43,830 --> 00:32:41,279
with a picnic table and fire pit

904
00:32:45,909 --> 00:32:43,840
at that point i rested a bit took off my

905
00:32:47,110 --> 00:32:45,919
gopro because of the killer headache i

906
00:32:52,230 --> 00:32:47,120
had

907
00:32:55,269 --> 00:32:52,240
and uh i said it was an uneventful hike

908
00:32:56,710 --> 00:32:55,279
or a nice spring day which was reward

909
00:32:59,830 --> 00:32:56,720
enough so on the way

910
00:33:01,909 --> 00:32:59,840
back i had to pass the arch again

911
00:33:04,710 --> 00:33:01,919
however this time i decided to move a

912
00:33:07,029 --> 00:33:04,720
small branch instead of ducking under it

913
00:33:09,430 --> 00:33:07,039
within five steps from the arch out of

914
00:33:13,590 --> 00:33:09,440
nowhere extremely loud and very

915
00:33:14,789 --> 00:33:13,600
close a tree bash occurred right behind

916
00:33:17,990 --> 00:33:14,799
my head

917
00:33:19,830 --> 00:33:18,000
at the tree on my right only four foot

918
00:33:21,830 --> 00:33:19,840
away

919
00:33:22,870 --> 00:33:21,840
it was so close that i felt parts of the

920
00:33:26,230 --> 00:33:22,880
tree or

921
00:33:28,549 --> 00:33:26,240
branch are kidding me

922
00:33:29,269 --> 00:33:28,559
anyways i froze waiting and thinking of

923
00:33:32,470 --> 00:33:29,279
what to do

924
00:33:33,669 --> 00:33:32,480
since i had no weapon uh not even bear

925
00:33:36,389 --> 00:33:33,679
spray because

926
00:33:39,190 --> 00:33:36,399
because i was in a park i never had a

927
00:33:41,669 --> 00:33:39,200
sasquatch do this to me before

928
00:33:43,909 --> 00:33:41,679
seconds pass which seemed like hours

929
00:33:47,110 --> 00:33:43,919
until i finally walked ahead

930
00:33:48,950 --> 00:33:47,120
15 foot into a clearing on the trail the

931
00:33:52,789 --> 00:33:48,960
bigfoot was right on my

932
00:33:53,269 --> 00:33:52,799
uh right on me so i broke a tiny branch

933
00:33:56,070 --> 00:33:53,279
off

934
00:33:57,110 --> 00:33:56,080
a nearby tree and did a very soft wood

935
00:33:59,750 --> 00:33:57,120
knock

936
00:34:02,789 --> 00:33:59,760
hoping it would realize i was not there

937
00:34:05,190 --> 00:34:02,799
to harm them or compete for territory

938
00:34:05,990 --> 00:34:05,200
at this point i did try to get some

939
00:34:08,869 --> 00:34:06,000
footage with my

940
00:34:09,750 --> 00:34:08,879
cam but just turning it on around in my

941
00:34:12,950 --> 00:34:09,760
hand

942
00:34:15,190 --> 00:34:12,960
however my safety was the key concern so

943
00:34:18,550 --> 00:34:15,200
i had to settle with whatever i got

944
00:34:19,430 --> 00:34:18,560
during those few shots anyways a soft

945
00:34:21,510 --> 00:34:19,440
wood tap

946
00:34:22,629 --> 00:34:21,520
seemed to work so i continued on heading

947
00:34:24,629 --> 00:34:22,639
out of the park

948
00:34:26,069 --> 00:34:24,639
after 10 minutes of hiking i came to an

949
00:34:28,550 --> 00:34:26,079
s turn in the trail

950
00:34:30,550 --> 00:34:28,560
that was close to the parking lot after

951
00:34:33,829 --> 00:34:30,560
the s turn the trail opened up while

952
00:34:36,149 --> 00:34:33,839
passing the lake during the last 100

953
00:34:38,470 --> 00:34:36,159
meters of the hike however the s turn

954
00:34:39,990 --> 00:34:38,480
was a choke point and sure enough my

955
00:34:42,629 --> 00:34:40,000
luck ran out

956
00:34:43,589 --> 00:34:42,639
i could hear them i could hear then

957
00:34:45,669 --> 00:34:43,599
smell

958
00:34:47,669 --> 00:34:45,679
the bigfoot come up to my right and was

959
00:34:50,950 --> 00:34:47,679
within 10 foot of me

960
00:34:51,349 --> 00:34:50,960
as part of 10 feet at the first part of

961
00:34:54,310 --> 00:34:51,359
the s

962
00:34:55,909 --> 00:34:54,320
turn at this point i could think of

963
00:34:58,069 --> 00:34:55,919
nothing else i could do

964
00:35:00,150 --> 00:34:58,079
since it was not satisfied with

965
00:35:02,790 --> 00:35:00,160
escorting me out and leaving

966
00:35:05,430 --> 00:35:02,800
so when i when it got too close at the

967
00:35:08,069 --> 00:35:05,440
final turn i just reached my snapping

968
00:35:09,990 --> 00:35:08,079
by snapping my head right and snarling

969
00:35:12,230 --> 00:35:10,000
back over my shoulder at it

970
00:35:13,910 --> 00:35:12,240
either that worked or got scared off by

971
00:35:16,950 --> 00:35:13,920
the clearing ahead

972
00:35:18,069 --> 00:35:16,960
but i made it back to the parking lot so

973
00:35:20,710 --> 00:35:18,079
i've experienced

974
00:35:22,710 --> 00:35:20,720
uh rocks throwing vocalization stumps

975
00:35:25,510 --> 00:35:22,720
and super loud wood knocks

976
00:35:26,310 --> 00:35:25,520
and being softly bumped into it must

977
00:35:28,390 --> 00:35:26,320
have known

978
00:35:29,910 --> 00:35:28,400
smashing the branch that hard and so

979
00:35:30,710 --> 00:35:29,920
close to my head that branch would

980
00:35:33,750 --> 00:35:30,720
shatter

981
00:35:35,829 --> 00:35:33,760
and parts of it would hit me uh anyways

982
00:35:39,030 --> 00:35:35,839
all i could see on the footage

983
00:35:42,710 --> 00:35:39,040
is a stationary gray-haired six foot

984
00:35:44,870 --> 00:35:42,720
bent over pipette figure uh hiding

985
00:35:46,950 --> 00:35:44,880
behind a tree

986
00:35:48,230 --> 00:35:46,960
but you can make out the arm because of

987
00:35:51,030 --> 00:35:48,240
the bend at the elbow

988
00:35:52,710 --> 00:35:51,040
and part of the lower leg i still put

989
00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:52,720
together a video on the

990
00:36:00,550 --> 00:35:56,160
on this but in this case narration

991
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:06,390
so that's it that's pretty damn close

992
00:36:11,510 --> 00:36:09,589
that's it that's enough yeah that was

993
00:36:11,990 --> 00:36:11,520
pretty close and i was up in ontario

994
00:36:18,710 --> 00:36:12,000
that's

995
00:36:20,930 --> 00:36:18,720
uh we got another here from tom

996
00:36:25,030 --> 00:36:20,940
here in pa

997
00:36:29,589 --> 00:36:27,589
15 years ago while spring turkey hunting

998
00:36:31,109 --> 00:36:29,599
in southwest pennsylvania

999
00:36:32,710 --> 00:36:31,119
i went into the woods around three

1000
00:36:34,230 --> 00:36:32,720
o'clock 3 30

1001
00:36:36,150 --> 00:36:34,240
in the morning so that i could be

1002
00:36:38,150 --> 00:36:36,160
situated by 4 a.m

1003
00:36:40,470 --> 00:36:38,160
without the use of a flashlight i slowly

1004
00:36:41,430 --> 00:36:40,480
climbed the long hill when i reached the

1005
00:36:44,150 --> 00:36:41,440
top

1006
00:36:44,470 --> 00:36:44,160
i continued on for 25 yards and turned

1007
00:36:47,910 --> 00:36:44,480
around

1008
00:36:49,829 --> 00:36:47,920
facing direction which i had came i sat

1009
00:36:51,750 --> 00:36:49,839
down at the base of large stream within

1010
00:36:53,270 --> 00:36:51,760
five seconds something let out a huge

1011
00:36:56,230 --> 00:36:53,280
scream

1012
00:36:56,790 --> 00:36:56,240
it was only in it was only about 80 to

1013
00:36:59,430 --> 00:36:56,800
100

1014
00:37:00,150 --> 00:36:59,440
foot away and coming directly from where

1015
00:37:03,670 --> 00:37:00,160
i had just

1016
00:37:05,670 --> 00:37:03,680
walked through 30 seconds ago

1017
00:37:07,270 --> 00:37:05,680
apparently i had walked right past it

1018
00:37:09,589 --> 00:37:07,280
and it had followed me

1019
00:37:11,510 --> 00:37:09,599
it had been following me this first

1020
00:37:12,069 --> 00:37:11,520
scream sounded somewhat like a mountain

1021
00:37:14,710 --> 00:37:12,079
lion or

1022
00:37:15,990 --> 00:37:14,720
leopard war and my first thought was

1023
00:37:18,230 --> 00:37:16,000
mountain lion

1024
00:37:19,589 --> 00:37:18,240
it let out another scream that sounded

1025
00:37:22,630 --> 00:37:19,599
less cat-like

1026
00:37:24,710 --> 00:37:22,640
but still had a little of that tone

1027
00:37:25,670 --> 00:37:24,720
after that scream it began to let out on

1028
00:37:28,790 --> 00:37:25,680
her

1029
00:37:30,630 --> 00:37:28,800
let out horrific screams uh but a

1030
00:37:34,310 --> 00:37:30,640
totally new very mad

1031
00:37:36,150 --> 00:37:34,320
mean sound and this was continuously for

1032
00:37:38,550 --> 00:37:36,160
about 10 minutes

1033
00:37:39,829 --> 00:37:38,560
uh these roars were earth shattering and

1034
00:37:43,190 --> 00:37:39,839
it was apparent

1035
00:37:46,230 --> 00:37:43,200
it was getting very angry very agitated

1036
00:37:47,990 --> 00:37:46,240
uh because i wasn't running off

1037
00:37:50,630 --> 00:37:48,000
it was also very very apparent that the

1038
00:37:53,510 --> 00:37:50,640
screams were being directed at me

1039
00:37:57,109 --> 00:37:53,520
my car was straight back beyond it so i

1040
00:37:59,829 --> 00:37:57,119
sure wasn't headed in that direction

1041
00:38:01,589 --> 00:37:59,839
i could hear walking around while it was

1042
00:38:03,430 --> 00:38:01,599
doing the screaming and it was also

1043
00:38:04,790 --> 00:38:03,440
either picking up large limbs and

1044
00:38:07,750 --> 00:38:04,800
breaking them or

1045
00:38:10,310 --> 00:38:07,760
breaking large live tree limbs the

1046
00:38:10,870 --> 00:38:10,320
screams and roars were loud enough that

1047
00:38:29,510 --> 00:38:10,880
i

1048
00:38:32,230 --> 00:38:29,520
see the end of the barrel and my fear

1049
00:38:33,990 --> 00:38:32,240
was if this thing attacked the only i

1050
00:38:35,670 --> 00:38:34,000
was only going to be able to fire at

1051
00:38:37,750 --> 00:38:35,680
point-blank range

1052
00:38:39,990 --> 00:38:37,760
the safety was all my fingers on the

1053
00:38:43,109 --> 00:38:40,000
trigger the encounter continued

1054
00:38:46,069 --> 00:38:43,119
without interruption for over 10 minutes

1055
00:38:48,150 --> 00:38:46,079
and then everything went silent at that

1056
00:38:50,550 --> 00:38:48,160
point i thought it might be sneaking in

1057
00:38:53,510 --> 00:38:50,560
behind me as i heard a twig snap

1058
00:38:55,670 --> 00:38:53,520
about 50 foot behind me after that i

1059
00:38:57,589 --> 00:38:55,680
heard not a sound

1060
00:39:00,630 --> 00:38:57,599
all animals and forests were totally

1061
00:39:03,589 --> 00:39:00,640
quiet not even a bird chirp

1062
00:39:05,990 --> 00:39:03,599
even after it got daylight after got

1063
00:39:09,190 --> 00:39:06,000
daylight i started back for my car

1064
00:39:11,109 --> 00:39:09,200
with a gun at the ready but saw nothing

1065
00:39:13,750 --> 00:39:11,119
it was a couple of years before i went

1066
00:39:16,630 --> 00:39:13,760
back to that location to look around

1067
00:39:18,470 --> 00:39:16,640
at that spot it took place i found

1068
00:39:20,230 --> 00:39:18,480
several young saplings

1069
00:39:22,390 --> 00:39:20,240
that were snapped off about shoulder

1070
00:39:24,950 --> 00:39:22,400
high they were about the size of my

1071
00:39:26,950 --> 00:39:24,960
wrist and upper forearm

1072
00:39:28,950 --> 00:39:26,960
it was not much it was not much

1073
00:39:29,589 --> 00:39:28,960
interested with any bigfoot stuff back

1074
00:39:31,589 --> 00:39:29,599
then

1075
00:39:34,310 --> 00:39:31,599
and really had no idea what i was up

1076
00:39:35,750 --> 00:39:34,320
against i've hunted for over 45 years

1077
00:39:37,910 --> 00:39:35,760
and have traveled to nine countries

1078
00:39:41,030 --> 00:39:37,920
pursuing my lovely outdoors

1079
00:39:43,990 --> 00:39:41,040
hunting fishing hiking etc i've been

1080
00:39:44,310 --> 00:39:44,000
bluff charged by bears in alaska and i

1081
00:39:46,950 --> 00:39:44,320
have

1082
00:39:48,470 --> 00:39:46,960
other scary events but this by far was

1083
00:39:50,069 --> 00:39:48,480
the most intense

1084
00:39:52,069 --> 00:39:50,079
it was after i ruled out everything

1085
00:39:53,190 --> 00:39:52,079
natural normal in pennsylvania that

1086
00:39:56,710 --> 00:39:53,200
things start

1087
00:39:58,230 --> 00:39:56,720
to make sense sort of uh

1088
00:40:00,630 --> 00:39:58,240
butch and i heard this story before

1089
00:40:08,829 --> 00:40:00,640
because we know the guy it happened to

1090
00:40:14,710 --> 00:40:11,190
yes

1091
00:40:17,750 --> 00:40:17,030
yeah i mean he's very knowledgeable very

1092
00:40:19,829 --> 00:40:17,760
forthright

1093
00:40:23,190 --> 00:40:19,839
knows the outdoors i mean he's he's a

1094
00:40:29,670 --> 00:40:26,390
so um anybody got anything else

1095
00:40:33,430 --> 00:40:29,680
oh yeah hey butch

1096
00:40:37,270 --> 00:40:33,440
love it hello the floor county massacre

1097
00:40:39,750 --> 00:40:37,280
oh my god hunabi oklahoma

1098
00:40:41,910 --> 00:40:39,760
yep oklahoma seems to be a hotbed of

1099
00:40:44,950 --> 00:40:41,920
violent human bigfoot encounters as can

1100
00:40:47,109 --> 00:40:44,960
be seen with this historical account

1101
00:40:49,030 --> 00:40:47,119
the choctaw native american tribe had

1102
00:40:50,870 --> 00:40:49,040
long known a bigfoot

1103
00:40:52,550 --> 00:40:50,880
they worshipped them in their legends

1104
00:40:53,589 --> 00:40:52,560
and had lived alongside of them for many

1105
00:40:55,109 --> 00:40:53,599
years

1106
00:40:56,630 --> 00:40:55,119
so they were not concerned when they

1107
00:40:57,829 --> 00:40:56,640
would occasionally steal supplies from

1108
00:41:00,550 --> 00:40:57,839
their camps

1109
00:41:03,030 --> 00:41:00,560
however when a child went missing in the

1110
00:41:05,430 --> 00:41:03,040
dead of the night in 1855

1111
00:41:07,109 --> 00:41:05,440
followed by another then more the

1112
00:41:09,829 --> 00:41:07,119
choctaw knew

1113
00:41:11,430 --> 00:41:09,839
that action needed to be taken their

1114
00:41:12,950 --> 00:41:11,440
weapons were not powerful enough to

1115
00:41:14,309 --> 00:41:12,960
handle the creatures

1116
00:41:16,630 --> 00:41:14,319
so they sought out help from other

1117
00:41:18,790 --> 00:41:16,640
settlers in the area this was a time

1118
00:41:20,230 --> 00:41:18,800
when relations between the settlers

1119
00:41:22,870 --> 00:41:20,240
and the natives was anything but

1120
00:41:25,190 --> 00:41:22,880
amicable and they were laughed off by

1121
00:41:28,470 --> 00:41:25,200
many for their silly superstitions

1122
00:41:31,030 --> 00:41:28,480
but there was one man who listened

1123
00:41:32,309 --> 00:41:31,040
army cavalry captain joshua lafleur who

1124
00:41:34,230 --> 00:41:32,319
was part cherokee

1125
00:41:35,349 --> 00:41:34,240
and was respectful of the native beliefs

1126
00:41:37,510 --> 00:41:35,359
besides

1127
00:41:40,309 --> 00:41:37,520
if they were willing to ask for help

1128
00:41:44,470 --> 00:41:40,319
then he knew there must be a good reason

1129
00:41:46,710 --> 00:41:44,480
lefour organized a party of natives

1130
00:41:47,670 --> 00:41:46,720
and settlers all armed with rifles

1131
00:41:50,390 --> 00:41:47,680
designed to bring

1132
00:41:51,990 --> 00:41:50,400
down buffalo and they headed out to find

1133
00:41:53,430 --> 00:41:52,000
the child steelers

1134
00:41:55,270 --> 00:41:53,440
the group hacked their way through the

1135
00:41:57,190 --> 00:41:55,280
unforgivable oklahoma wilderness for

1136
00:41:59,190 --> 00:41:57,200
days until they eventually came across a

1137
00:42:02,069 --> 00:41:59,200
gigantic round of dirt

1138
00:42:04,230 --> 00:42:02,079
littered with what were the gnawed bones

1139
00:42:06,150 --> 00:42:04,240
of children inside

1140
00:42:07,910 --> 00:42:06,160
as the men tried to process the horrific

1141
00:42:09,750 --> 00:42:07,920
scene

1142
00:42:12,950 --> 00:42:09,760
four of the creatures charged from the

1143
00:42:15,430 --> 00:42:12,960
forest area into the ambush

1144
00:42:17,030 --> 00:42:15,440
carnage ensued with the result being

1145
00:42:17,829 --> 00:42:17,040
many of the men including the floor

1146
00:42:20,870 --> 00:42:17,839
lying dead

1147
00:42:23,990 --> 00:42:20,880
as well as for sasquatch

1148
00:42:26,150 --> 00:42:24,000
the remaining indian native warriors

1149
00:42:27,990 --> 00:42:26,160
gave all the dead a warriors burial and

1150
00:42:28,870 --> 00:42:28,000
burned the bodies of the dead bigfoot to

1151
00:42:31,990 --> 00:42:28,880
ash

1152
00:42:33,349 --> 00:42:32,000
as a show of vengeance the story may

1153
00:42:35,750 --> 00:42:33,359
seem fanciful

1154
00:42:38,470 --> 00:42:35,760
but military records do show a captain

1155
00:42:41,190 --> 00:42:38,480
joshua lafleur of choctaw heritage

1156
00:42:43,990 --> 00:42:41,200
was in service in that area from 1830

1157
00:42:46,550 --> 00:42:44,000
until his death in 1855

1158
00:42:47,589 --> 00:42:46,560
his death is listed as happening in 1805

1159
00:42:50,390 --> 00:42:47,599
in military records

1160
00:42:52,390 --> 00:42:50,400
in oklahoma indian territory and native

1161
00:42:57,270 --> 00:42:52,400
americans have long held and told

1162
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:02,069

1166
00:43:14,950 --> 00:43:11,680
in oklahoma

1167
00:43:18,390 --> 00:43:14,960
or the folks that experience

1168

bigfoot bigfoots uh

1172
00:43:34,230 --> 00:43:32,800
over an extended period of time trying

uh give you the goosebumps and

1225
00:45:39,589 --> 00:45:38,240
you know we tell you these stories

1226
00:45:41,109 --> 00:45:39,599
because they're well they're just great

bedtime stories and we wanted to show

1228
00:45:44,230 --> 00:45:42,800
those a little bit more fun than usual

1229
00:45:48,069 --> 00:45:44,240
but

1230
00:45:49,670 --> 00:45:48,079
you know these sightings happen and

1231
00:45:51,829 --> 00:45:49,680
to the folks that experience them

1232
00:45:53,349 --> 00:45:51,839
they're life-changing events

1233
00:45:55,030 --> 00:45:53,359
that's why you know we kind of provide

1234
00:45:56,470 --> 00:45:55,040
an outlet for folks that do experience

1235
00:45:57,910 --> 00:45:56,480
these things to come to us and tell us

1236
00:45:59,270 --> 00:45:57,920
so we can investigate give them a little

1237
00:46:01,670 --> 00:45:59,280
help little solos and what they seem

1238
00:46:04,309 --> 00:46:01,680
they're not crazy

1239
00:46:09,750 --> 00:46:04,319
but damn sometimes they're just

1240
00:46:13,510 --> 00:46:11,430
i've gotten a lot of them in the past i

1241
00:46:15,109 --> 00:46:13,520
mean you know some of you

1242
00:46:17,109 --> 00:46:15,119
i don't know i can't believe that maybe

1243
00:46:19,349 --> 00:46:17,119
did you know a lot of historical

1244
00:46:22,950 --> 00:46:19,359
accounts of uh

1245
00:46:26,710 --> 00:46:22,960
of these texts by um

1246
00:46:29,750 --> 00:46:26,720
uh by groups of bigfoot in fact

1247
00:46:32,470 --> 00:46:29,760
uh you know we were talking you know

1248
00:46:35,030 --> 00:46:32,480
there was a big thing about that uh

1249
00:46:37,750 --> 00:46:35,040
about the seal team i went in

1250
00:46:39,589 --> 00:46:37,760
down in uh down into the mountains of

1251
00:46:41,670 --> 00:46:39,599
north carolina

1252
00:46:44,230 --> 00:46:41,680
and killed off a whole big group of

1253
00:46:47,270 --> 00:46:44,240
these marauding bigfoot

1254
00:46:49,910 --> 00:46:47,280
but there have been other uh there have

1255
00:46:51,990 --> 00:46:49,920
been other instances as well i mean

1256
00:46:53,349 --> 00:46:52,000
there was that valley up in the yukon

1257
00:46:56,710 --> 00:46:53,359
territory

1258
00:46:58,150 --> 00:46:56,720
where all these miners were losing their

1259
00:47:00,069 --> 00:46:58,160
heads because these bigfoot

1260
00:47:01,829 --> 00:47:00,079
apparently bigfoot were attacking them

1261
00:47:06,150 --> 00:47:01,839
and ripping their heads off

1262
00:47:08,390 --> 00:47:06,160
uh they called it the headless valley um

1263
00:47:10,150 --> 00:47:08,400
you know how much of that was conjecture

1264
00:47:11,190 --> 00:47:10,160
but there were some people that it that

1265
00:47:13,349 --> 00:47:11,200
were

1266
00:47:15,349 --> 00:47:13,359
decapitated and killed so i don't know

1267
00:47:18,069 --> 00:47:15,359
how many of them were there

1268
00:47:19,670 --> 00:47:18,079
uh and you've heard there's been other

1269
00:47:22,230 --> 00:47:19,680
stories as well

1270
00:47:23,670 --> 00:47:22,240
so you know uh it's it's not something

1271
00:47:26,790 --> 00:47:23,680
that

1272
00:47:29,349 --> 00:47:26,800
you know not all of them are made up

1273
00:47:31,589 --> 00:47:29,359
you know most legends or something are

1274
00:47:34,950 --> 00:47:31,599
based on some type of truth

1275
00:47:35,510 --> 00:47:34,960
but uh you know i don't put it past it

1276
00:47:38,230 --> 00:47:35,520
you know i

1277
00:47:38,710 --> 00:47:38,240
i you know every you know you read these

1278
00:47:42,069 --> 00:47:38,720
uh

1279
00:47:44,710 --> 00:47:42,079
stories that that david pilates has been

1280
00:47:46,950 --> 00:47:44,720
putting out a story but reports

1281
00:47:49,349 --> 00:47:46,960
uh people going missing in these state

1282
00:47:53,190 --> 00:47:49,359
forests the state parks and

1283
00:47:56,309 --> 00:47:53,200
federal land and such and uh

1284
00:47:59,829 --> 00:47:56,319
you know i i know he does

1285
00:48:02,230 --> 00:47:59,839
say this off hand i mean that being

1286
00:48:04,150 --> 00:48:02,240
bigfoot but you know i i really do

1287
00:48:07,750 --> 00:48:04,160
believe that

1288
00:48:09,670 --> 00:48:07,760
a bigfoot mayor may easily have been

1289
00:48:11,349 --> 00:48:09,680
responsible for some of those

1290
00:48:13,750 --> 00:48:11,359
disappearances

1291
00:48:15,430 --> 00:48:13,760
so um you know i'm just going to put it

1292
00:48:17,270 --> 00:48:15,440
out there well without saying more than

1293
00:48:18,829 --> 00:48:17,280
what we should say about it you and i

1294
00:48:21,670 --> 00:48:18,839
have had a conversation

1295
00:48:24,870 --> 00:48:21,680
offline with uh

1296
00:48:27,670 --> 00:48:24,880
the author about his thoughts on that

1297
00:48:29,750 --> 00:48:27,680
and though he won't publicly say yay i

1298
00:48:32,710 --> 00:48:29,760
think we're along the same lines of what

1299
00:48:33,190 --> 00:48:32,720
he feels and that itself is telling him

1300
00:48:34,630 --> 00:48:33,200
look i

1301
00:48:35,990 --> 00:48:34,640
i i feel that way you know that's a

1302
00:48:37,910 --> 00:48:36,000
question i get whenever i'm doing a

1303
00:48:38,549 --> 00:48:37,920
presentation or i'm talking to somebody

1304
00:48:41,190 --> 00:48:38,559
is

1305
00:48:42,150 --> 00:48:41,200
has bigfoot ever hurt somebody well hell

1306
00:48:44,150 --> 00:48:42,160
we don't know

1307
00:48:45,270 --> 00:48:44,160
you know what i mean like if they're

1308
00:48:48,630 --> 00:48:45,280
killing them they're not sure

1309
00:48:53,030 --> 00:48:48,640
coming back to tell us about it

1310
00:48:56,630 --> 00:48:55,270
i mean we have heard stories of these

1311
00:48:59,430 --> 00:48:56,640
things actually

1312
00:49:02,870 --> 00:48:59,440
helping people too so definitely i guess

1313
00:49:05,430 --> 00:49:02,880
it works both ways i mean you know tom

1314
00:49:08,390 --> 00:49:05,440
locals is full of it he's got a great

1315
00:49:10,950 --> 00:49:08,400
story about rocky how the guy was uh

1316
00:49:12,710 --> 00:49:10,960
carried back to the foot of the trail

1317
00:49:14,390 --> 00:49:12,720
that he hurt himself and

1318
00:49:16,150 --> 00:49:14,400
he was placed there so somebody would

1319
00:49:19,270 --> 00:49:16,160
see him and

1320
00:49:21,349 --> 00:49:19,280
i'm not saying every encounter is uh

1321
00:49:23,109 --> 00:49:21,359
a bad encounter but folks let's be clear

1322
00:49:25,190 --> 00:49:23,119
not every encounter is harry and the

1323
00:49:28,710 --> 00:49:25,200

00:50:07,030 --> 00:50:04,720
traveled a bit

1338
00:50:08,230 --> 00:50:07,040
they always felt like that was home you

1339
00:50:09,910 --> 00:50:08,240
know yeah

1340
00:50:12,150 --> 00:50:09,920
they're originally from new york city

1341
00:50:15,030 --> 00:50:12,160
but uh they lived

1342
00:50:16,390 --> 00:50:15,040
down there in florida for quite a while

1343
00:50:18,150 --> 00:50:16,400
in fact

1344
00:50:19,589 --> 00:50:18,160
in the summer they used to go down a lot

1345
00:50:21,510 --> 00:50:19,599
then they eventually lived down there

1346
00:50:24,950 --> 00:50:21,520
and they had a trailer

1347
00:50:27,750 --> 00:50:24,960
and they also had horse pasture and such

1348
00:50:30,069 --> 00:50:27,760
uh there was a campground and now this

1349
00:50:31,190 --> 00:50:30,079
is mayaka so this is down in sarasota

1350
00:50:35,829 --> 00:50:31,200
county this is a

1351
00:50:39,750 --> 00:50:35,839
this is an area very well known for

1352
00:50:42,069 --> 00:50:39,760
for skunky babes um i said

1353
00:50:44,150 --> 00:50:42,079
uh my aca was just across the side of

1354
00:50:45,910 --> 00:50:44,160
the side of the pasture

1355
00:50:47,349 --> 00:50:45,920
and they had made friends with people

1356
00:50:49,190 --> 00:50:47,359
who ran it so it was

1357
00:50:51,270 --> 00:50:49,200
late summer and a bunch of the campers

1358
00:50:53,109 --> 00:50:51,280
had got together

1359
00:50:55,750 --> 00:50:53,119
because they'd be leaving soon going

1360
00:50:56,790 --> 00:50:55,760
back home so a bonfire was being held

1361
00:50:58,390 --> 00:50:56,800
that evening

1362
00:51:01,190 --> 00:50:58,400
so there was a trail that led into the

1363
00:51:02,950 --> 00:51:01,200
campground from where the trailer was

1364
00:51:05,270 --> 00:51:02,960
and everybody had gathered at our

1365
00:51:08,150 --> 00:51:05,280
trailer for a farewell barbecue

1366
00:51:08,870 --> 00:51:08,160
then moving down to the campground and

1367
00:51:12,950 --> 00:51:08,880
after

1368
00:51:15,349 --> 00:51:12,960
cleaned up the barbecue mess it was

1369
00:51:17,589 --> 00:51:15,359
getting dark so i was pretty much

1370
00:51:18,710 --> 00:51:17,599
the last one to arrive the fire was

1371
00:51:20,870 --> 00:51:18,720
started

1372
00:51:23,270 --> 00:51:20,880
and we all stood around talking it was

1373
00:51:25,270 --> 00:51:23,280
about 9 30 p.m

1374
00:51:27,349 --> 00:51:25,280
i was standing beside my friend on the

1375
00:51:29,670 --> 00:51:27,359
outside edge of the fire when i had to

1376
00:51:31,910 --> 00:51:29,680
look across at the tree line

1377
00:51:33,430 --> 00:51:31,920
there's a fence there with a low-lying

1378
00:51:35,990 --> 00:51:33,440
palm shrub

1379
00:51:37,430 --> 00:51:36,000
scrub excuse me it's divided into the

1380
00:51:39,430 --> 00:51:37,440
other half of the pasture from the

1381
00:51:41,829 --> 00:51:39,440
campground and back trails

1382
00:51:44,950 --> 00:51:41,839
as i looked in that direction i saw two

1383
00:51:47,030 --> 00:51:44,960
big red eyes staring back at me

1384
00:51:48,549 --> 00:51:47,040
the outline of this thing was pretty big

1385
00:51:49,910 --> 00:51:48,559
but the glow of the fire

1386
00:51:52,470 --> 00:51:49,920
excuse me the outline of the thing was

1387
00:51:54,630 --> 00:51:52,480
pretty big by the glow the fire light

1388
00:51:56,069 --> 00:51:54,640
the pulse scrub palm scrub was about

1389
00:51:58,549 --> 00:51:56,079
four foot high

1390
00:52:00,870 --> 00:51:58,559
higher in some spots not taking my eyes

1391
00:52:02,710 --> 00:52:00,880
off this thing i quietly whispered

1392
00:52:04,230 --> 00:52:02,720
to my friend to look in that direction

1393
00:52:07,190 --> 00:52:04,240
and don't scream

1394
00:52:09,349 --> 00:52:07,200
she did and she whispered to her husband

1395
00:52:11,030 --> 00:52:09,359
she said softly to the group not to make

1396
00:52:13,270 --> 00:52:11,040
any sudden moves we were

1397
00:52:14,950 --> 00:52:13,280
taking we were talking softly and

1398
00:52:16,309 --> 00:52:14,960
alerting everyone in the group about the

1399
00:52:18,390 --> 00:52:16,319
red eyes

1400
00:52:20,230 --> 00:52:18,400
and everybody looked and saw what we

1401
00:52:22,630 --> 00:52:20,240
were seeing

1402
00:52:24,470 --> 00:52:22,640
so there were eight of us all totaled uh

1403
00:52:27,510 --> 00:52:24,480
my girlfriend's husband returned with a

1404
00:52:29,829 --> 00:52:27,520
flashlight and a rifle and ham

1405
00:52:32,950 --> 00:52:29,839
we handed a flashlight to my friend and

1406
00:52:34,549 --> 00:52:32,960
i told her to shine it in at whatever it

1407
00:52:37,109 --> 00:52:34,559
was in the scrub

1408
00:52:38,630 --> 00:52:37,119
when she did this thing stood up and it

1409
00:52:41,750 --> 00:52:38,640
made a growling sound

1410
00:52:43,349 --> 00:52:41,760
my friend's husband then shot at it

1411
00:52:46,069 --> 00:52:43,359
and it screamed like nothing i'd ever

1412
00:52:48,710 --> 00:52:46,079
heard before it took off into the brush

1413
00:52:49,990 --> 00:52:48,720
everybody except me and a group ran to

1414
00:52:52,950 --> 00:52:50,000
get flashlights

1415
00:52:53,670 --> 00:52:52,960
and whatever to arm ourselves with my

1416
00:52:55,910 --> 00:52:53,680
friend and i

1417
00:52:57,430 --> 00:52:55,920
were told to stay by the fire about that

1418
00:52:59,990 --> 00:52:57,440
time we heard the horses

1419
00:53:01,750 --> 00:53:00,000
screaming in the pasture and they

1420
00:53:04,069 --> 00:53:01,760
hurried to the field

1421
00:53:05,829 --> 00:53:04,079
after a while they all returned they

1422
00:53:08,630 --> 00:53:05,839
could not find anything and

1423
00:53:09,349 --> 00:53:08,640
would resume the search at daylight the

1424
00:53:11,990 --> 00:53:09,359
next day

1425
00:53:13,430 --> 00:53:12,000
blood was found at the fence area and a

1426
00:53:16,230 --> 00:53:13,440
horse was dead

1427
00:53:17,750 --> 00:53:16,240
its next its neck was broken body badly

1428
00:53:20,309 --> 00:53:17,760
ripped apart

1429
00:53:21,190 --> 00:53:20,319
searches were continued for a couple

1430
00:53:23,750 --> 00:53:21,200
days

1431
00:53:25,750 --> 00:53:23,760
and no one spoke about it what happened

1432
00:53:28,470 --> 00:53:25,760
after having several things happen

1433
00:53:30,390 --> 00:53:28,480
where i was staying we left this was not

1434
00:53:32,069 --> 00:53:30,400
the only time i have encountered a large

1435
00:53:34,630 --> 00:53:32,079
red-eyed being

1436
00:53:35,750 --> 00:53:34,640
i believe this was a fact a skunky

1437
00:53:38,870 --> 00:53:35,760
bigfoot

1438
00:53:40,549 --> 00:53:38,880
uh that after being shot at at purposely

1439
00:53:42,470 --> 00:53:40,559
it killed the horse

1440
00:53:44,069 --> 00:53:42,480
i had one another occasion encountered

1441
00:53:46,150 --> 00:53:44,079
one again at night which

1442
00:53:48,150 --> 00:53:46,160
chased me through the woods while

1443
00:53:50,790 --> 00:53:48,160
walking home from my friend's house

1444
00:53:53,030 --> 00:53:50,800
i had not known at the time that a body

1445
00:53:55,030 --> 00:53:53,040
was found mutilated in that area

1446
00:53:56,470 --> 00:53:55,040
and that the arms of that poor soil were

1447
00:54:00,069 --> 00:53:56,480
torn from its body

1448
00:54:04,470 --> 00:54:00,079
i was lucky and

1449
00:54:09,829 --> 00:54:04,480
i i have heard a few other

1450
00:54:13,190 --> 00:54:09,839
instances where human bodies

1451
00:54:14,390 --> 00:54:13,200
tore up in that area i mean now

1452
00:54:16,710 --> 00:54:14,400
you know they're not gonna come right

1453
00:54:17,910 --> 00:54:16,720
out and say it was a skunk ape that did

1454
00:54:19,910 --> 00:54:17,920
it

1455
00:54:21,109 --> 00:54:19,920
but you know we've all seen the footage

1456
00:54:23,589 --> 00:54:21,119
over there mayaka

1457
00:54:25,829 --> 00:54:23,599
people we're driving down the road and

1458
00:54:28,390 --> 00:54:25,839
they see these things in the field

1459
00:54:31,109 --> 00:54:28,400
and uh uh you know there's something out

1460
00:54:33,430 --> 00:54:31,119
there there's no doubt about that

1461
00:54:35,190 --> 00:54:33,440
so this was uh and in fact this this

1462
00:54:37,589 --> 00:54:35,200
story

1463
00:54:39,109 --> 00:54:37,599
about a year or so later this woman's

1464
00:54:41,750 --> 00:54:39,119
sister

1465
00:54:43,829 --> 00:54:41,760
contacted me and told me and she

1466
00:54:46,789 --> 00:54:43,839
verified the whole thing

1467
00:54:51,190 --> 00:54:46,799
uh so something something did happen

1468
00:54:55,829 --> 00:54:53,670
mayaka area is a pretty strange place

1469
00:54:58,950 --> 00:54:55,839
those palmetto leaves themselves are

1470
00:55:02,870 --> 00:55:00,950
well you know it's it's an area that's

1471
00:55:03,510 --> 00:55:02,880
it's been active people known about it

1472
00:55:05,750 --> 00:55:03,520
for years

1473
00:55:07,270 --> 00:55:05,760
the photos that were sent to lauren

1474
00:55:09,910 --> 00:55:07,280
coleman right

1475
00:55:11,270 --> 00:55:09,920
yeah well i mean there have been some

1476
00:55:13,589 --> 00:55:11,280
videos that people

1477
00:55:15,670 --> 00:55:13,599
have it was you know i remember four or

1478
00:55:19,349 --> 00:55:15,680
five years ago

1479
00:55:21,430 --> 00:55:19,359
uh people that were going down the road

1480
00:55:22,950 --> 00:55:21,440
all stopped at this right there on the

1481
00:55:24,150 --> 00:55:22,960
side of road and we're actually taking

1482
00:55:26,470 --> 00:55:24,160
video

1483
00:55:28,870 --> 00:55:26,480
of these skunk apes running in through

1484
00:55:30,390 --> 00:55:28,880
the the uh the pasture

1485
00:55:32,829 --> 00:55:30,400
i think i remember this now that you're

1486
00:55:33,990 --> 00:55:32,839
bringing this to you're bringing this up

1487
00:55:36,549 --> 00:55:34,000
yeah

1488
00:55:37,910 --> 00:55:36,559
so uh you know there's been a lot

1489
00:55:38,870 --> 00:55:37,920
there's been a lot of people that have

1490
00:55:42,230 --> 00:55:38,880
reported on

1491
00:55:43,910 --> 00:55:42,240
having um encounters with these skunk

1492
00:55:45,910 --> 00:55:43,920
apes i mean that

1493
00:55:47,270 --> 00:55:45,920
they seem to be a little bit more

1494
00:55:50,789 --> 00:55:47,280
aggressive

1495
00:55:52,630 --> 00:55:50,799
than regular bigfoot in other locations

1496
00:55:54,309 --> 00:55:52,640
uh i think for the most part they're a

1497
00:55:56,309 --> 00:55:54,319
little bit smaller but i think they're a

1498
00:55:59,109 --> 00:55:56,319
little bit more aggressive

1499
00:56:00,630 --> 00:55:59,119
yeah definitely that's that i i mean

1500
00:56:04,549 --> 00:56:00,640
that trend appears

1501
00:56:08,710 --> 00:56:07,349
