cave or something and uh 426 00:16:16,470 --> 00:16:14,160 we went back there we we found no 427 00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:16,480 opening and so it was a mystery 428 00:16:20,150 --> 00:16:17,920 we couldn't figure out this was broad 429 00:16:23,350 --> 00:16:20,160 daylight that this happened 430 00:16:26,470 --> 00:16:23,360 and um so 431 00:16:28,230 --> 00:16:26,480 we just you know when i i have a habit 432 00:16:30,550 --> 00:16:28,240 of whenever i make a report 433 00:16:32,710 --> 00:16:30,560 that i i just tell it the way they say 434 00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:32,720 it whatever it is that they say they see 435 00:16:35,269 --> 00:16:34,320 it's really important to tell all those 436 00:16:39,030 --> 00:16:35,279 details 437 00:16:40,310 --> 00:16:39,040 because um you know going a big foot 438 00:16:42,550 --> 00:16:40,320 going into the hole in the 439 00:16:44,230 --> 00:16:42,560 ground in the ground that doesn't exist 440 00:16:47,829 --> 00:16:44,240 that you can find 441 00:16:50,550 --> 00:16:47,839 anyway um could be important and it did 442 00:16:53,749 --> 00:16:50,560 it came back up later with the um 443 00:16:56,550 --> 00:16:53,759 another sighting that you know about and 444 00:16:57,189 --> 00:16:56,560 i'm sure you're going to ask me about 445 00:17:03,670 --> 00:16:57,199 yeah 446 00:17:07,189 --> 00:17:03,680 phone call from 447 00:17:09,189 --> 00:17:07,199 the witness and uh she claimed that she 448 00:17:12,710 --> 00:17:09,199 had a physical contact 449 00:17:16,870 --> 00:17:12,720 or physical attack by what a deserty 450 00:17:18,069 --> 00:17:16,880 and uh it's good that i was looking for 451 00:17:20,230 --> 00:17:18,079 somebody to 452 00:17:21,590 --> 00:17:20,240 but i think what i had done was post it 453 00:17:23,669 --> 00:17:21,600 on facebook 454 00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:23,679 and bruce got a hold of me or you got a 455 00:17:27,990 --> 00:17:24,720 hold of me i 456 00:17:30,310 --> 00:17:28,000 i did yeah yeah yep 457 00:17:33,510 --> 00:17:30,320 so uh why don't you tell us about that i 458 00:17:36,950 --> 00:17:33,520 mean it fits right in with what you 459 00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:36,960 had been investigating for years yeah 460 00:17:41,909 --> 00:17:40,320 and the the bigfoot in the 461 00:17:43,909 --> 00:17:41,919 in the desert area they'll have very 462 00:17:46,789 --> 00:17:43,919 similar features and when when you 463 00:17:48,870 --> 00:17:46,799 put me on this one it was actually i had 464 00:17:51,990 --> 00:17:48,880 all this research behind me 465 00:17:55,190 --> 00:17:52,000 so i kind of knew what to to ask her and 466 00:18:01,830 --> 00:17:57,669 she said this is juliana perez is her 467 00:18:04,470 --> 00:18:01,840 name and uh she was out 468 00:18:06,789 --> 00:18:04,480 uh well let me back up you you you 469 00:18:09,110 --> 00:18:06,799 posted it and i said ah i'm on it 470 00:18:10,070 --> 00:18:09,120 i'm on that's my research area i i can 471 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:10,080 totally handle this 472 00:18:14,390 --> 00:18:12,640 and and i called bruce dr bruce cornett 473 00:18:16,470 --> 00:18:14,400 right away because he's still in el paso 474 00:18:19,190 --> 00:18:16,480 and i am now in nova scotia 475 00:18:20,710 --> 00:18:19,200 so i was a little far removed but um we 476 00:18:24,470 --> 00:18:20,720 stayed on top of it 477 00:18:26,630 --> 00:18:24,480 and uh him to call her and talk to her 478 00:18:28,950 --> 00:18:26,640 and then also go out to the site where 479 00:18:31,990 --> 00:18:28,960 she had this bigfoot attack 480 00:18:33,669 --> 00:18:32,000 and um and you don't hear about bigfoot 481 00:18:36,310 --> 00:18:33,679 attacks too often 482 00:18:37,270 --> 00:18:36,320 and when you do it's it's disconcerting 483 00:18:40,630 --> 00:18:37,280 because a lot of them 484 00:18:43,750 --> 00:18:40,640 are you know so benign 485 00:18:46,870 --> 00:18:43,760 uh but 486 00:18:48,150 --> 00:18:46,880 this time it wasn't and uh she had 487 00:18:50,789 --> 00:18:48,160 pictures 488 00:18:52,230 --> 00:18:50,799 and of her legs where she had scrambled 489 00:18:54,950 --> 00:18:52,240 through the brush 490 00:18:56,310 --> 00:18:54,960 and trying to get away from this thing 491 00:18:58,789 --> 00:18:56,320 but what happened 492 00:18:59,750 --> 00:18:58,799 is uh that we found out and i didn't get 493 00:19:03,110 --> 00:18:59,760 to go until 494 00:19:05,750 --> 00:19:03,120 um gosh just over a year ago um 495 00:19:06,870 --> 00:19:05,760 so this was summer of 2019 when bruce 496 00:19:09,990 --> 00:19:06,880 went out with her 497 00:19:13,190 --> 00:19:10,000 and got to see the site and um 498 00:19:17,110 --> 00:19:13,200 i went out in 499 00:19:17,590 --> 00:19:17,120 in early 2020 so about six months later 500 00:19:21,830 --> 00:19:17,600 or so 501 00:19:24,150 --> 00:19:21,840 seven months and um she showed me 502 00:19:26,310 --> 00:19:24,160 how she and her husband and their 503 00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:26,320 six-year-old little boy 504 00:19:32,870 --> 00:19:29,679 had been east of horizon 505 00:19:34,070 --> 00:19:32,880 city out in kind of out in the out near 506 00:19:36,150 --> 00:19:34,080 the mountain 507 00:19:37,350 --> 00:19:36,160 and there's this place where there's a 508 00:19:40,630 --> 00:19:37,360 big tree and 509 00:19:42,150 --> 00:19:40,640 some runoff by the road where water 510 00:19:44,870 --> 00:19:42,160 collects and runs off and 511 00:19:46,470 --> 00:19:44,880 and so you can you can see in some of 512 00:19:49,590 --> 00:19:46,480 the pictures there's a lot of 513 00:19:51,590 --> 00:19:49,600 tall mesquite bushes and some trees here 514 00:19:55,029 --> 00:19:51,600 and there 515 00:19:58,150 --> 00:19:55,039 and uh basically 516 00:20:00,470 --> 00:19:58,160 she went out they went out to stargaze 517 00:20:01,510 --> 00:20:00,480 and all three of them she and her 518 00:20:03,590 --> 00:20:01,520 husband and her son 519 00:20:05,190 --> 00:20:03,600 and they were they parked the car by on 520 00:20:07,350 --> 00:20:05,200 the road right next to 521 00:20:08,630 --> 00:20:07,360 um kind of where the tree was the 522 00:20:11,430 --> 00:20:08,640 largest tree 523 00:20:12,870 --> 00:20:11,440 and she says i got to go to the bathroom 524 00:20:14,950 --> 00:20:12,880 so she went out 525 00:20:16,310 --> 00:20:14,960 around the tree by herself except she 526 00:20:20,070 --> 00:20:16,320 had the dog with her 527 00:20:22,310 --> 00:20:20,080 and she did what she needed to do and 528 00:20:24,470 --> 00:20:22,320 when she was done the dog started 529 00:20:26,230 --> 00:20:24,480 taking off down to the south along 530 00:20:28,310 --> 00:20:26,240 parallel to the road but on the other 531 00:20:30,549 --> 00:20:28,320 side of the brush 532 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:30,559 so there was a lot of brush between the 533 00:20:34,549 --> 00:20:32,880 road and where she was 534 00:20:37,430 --> 00:20:34,559 um so you kind of had to walk around it 535 00:20:40,390 --> 00:20:37,440 to get through but 536 00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:40,400 uh she she was going after the dog she 537 00:20:45,750 --> 00:20:41,440 was calling him and 538 00:20:49,110 --> 00:20:45,760 and she caught up with him and she's 539 00:20:50,549 --> 00:20:49,120 she said that she was 540 00:20:52,470 --> 00:20:50,559 she finally caught up with the dog but 541 00:20:55,909 --> 00:20:52,480 it was like looking down 542 00:20:58,470 --> 00:20:55,919 towards the ground and 543 00:20:59,669 --> 00:20:58,480 she she heard it whimper like the dog 544 00:21:04,630 --> 00:20:59,679 was 545 00:21:06,789 --> 00:21:04,640 and it started to take off 546 00:21:09,350 --> 00:21:06,799 and she looked and she saw a hole in the 547 00:21:12,149 --> 00:21:09,360 ground several feet wide 548 00:21:13,190 --> 00:21:12,159 and coming up out of it she just saw 549 00:21:16,390 --> 00:21:13,200 like 550 00:21:19,110 --> 00:21:16,400 the head of the 551 00:21:19,990 --> 00:21:19,120 of this creature with all hair and its 552 00:21:23,029 --> 00:21:20,000 hands 553 00:21:23,669 --> 00:21:23,039 kind of beside its ears but palms facing 554 00:21:28,470 --> 00:21:23,679 up 555 00:21:28,950 --> 00:21:28,480 dirt but she didn't see any dirt in its 556 00:21:32,470 --> 00:21:28,960 hands 557 00:21:33,430 --> 00:21:32,480 just just this position and it started 558 00:21:36,630 --> 00:21:33,440 rising up 559 00:21:37,830 --> 00:21:36,640 and um i guess i guess 560 00:21:40,310 --> 00:21:37,840 somewhere in there she also heard 561 00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:40,320 breathing and 562 00:21:43,510 --> 00:21:41,760 she said that she didn't want to wait it 563 00:21:46,149 --> 00:21:43,520 was a very long slow 564 00:21:47,909 --> 00:21:46,159 breathing noise and she didn't want to 565 00:21:49,190 --> 00:21:47,919 wait for like a third breath she knew 566 00:21:51,669 --> 00:21:49,200 she'd be dead 567 00:21:52,789 --> 00:21:51,679 so she was she started getting oh man i 568 00:21:54,950 --> 00:21:52,799 got to get out of here 569 00:21:55,830 --> 00:21:54,960 she saw that and heard that and it 570 00:21:58,230 --> 00:21:55,840 started coming 571 00:22:00,070 --> 00:21:58,240 up out of the hole towards her and she 572 00:22:01,830 --> 00:22:00,080 says ah that's it i got to get out of 573 00:22:03,029 --> 00:22:01,840 here she turned around to run and it 574 00:22:05,669 --> 00:22:03,039 come up behind her 575 00:22:06,870 --> 00:22:05,679 and as she run it it reached out to 576 00:22:09,590 --> 00:22:06,880 touch her 577 00:22:10,549 --> 00:22:09,600 um and it just barely touched her lower 578 00:22:14,230 --> 00:22:10,559 back 579 00:22:17,510 --> 00:22:14,240 little bit 580 00:22:21,430 --> 00:22:17,520 and um or forward i should say 581 00:22:22,710 --> 00:22:21,440 and uh she was taken off running as this 582 00:22:25,110 --> 00:22:22,720 was happening 583 00:22:26,470 --> 00:22:25,120 and it left marks on her and she didn't 584 00:22:28,549 --> 00:22:26,480 know that right away 585 00:22:30,710 --> 00:22:28,559 she didn't even feel it except the light 586 00:22:31,909 --> 00:22:30,720 touch but what happened later was 587 00:22:34,310 --> 00:22:31,919 important and i'll tell you that in a 588 00:22:36,310 --> 00:22:34,320 minute but she took off running 589 00:22:37,750 --> 00:22:36,320 to the north to go back towards the tree 590 00:22:41,029 --> 00:22:37,760 where she came from 591 00:22:42,070 --> 00:22:41,039 and uh it was behind her and she wasn't 592 00:22:44,149 --> 00:22:42,080 sure where to go 593 00:22:46,549 --> 00:22:44,159 and the next thing she knew it was it 594 00:22:48,310 --> 00:22:46,559 she thinks it ran around her 595 00:22:50,149 --> 00:22:48,320 uh because then it was standing in front 596 00:22:53,190 --> 00:22:50,159 of her in the only 597 00:22:56,789 --> 00:22:53,200 opening between two trees and uh 598 00:22:57,830 --> 00:22:56,799 or mesquite and um she wasn't sure how 599 00:23:00,870 --> 00:22:57,840 she was gonna get past 600 00:23:01,830 --> 00:23:00,880 it so she turned back again and we we 601 00:23:03,990 --> 00:23:01,840 theorized later 602 00:23:05,350 --> 00:23:04,000 maybe there was a second one because it 603 00:23:07,909 --> 00:23:05,360 was suddenly in front of her 604 00:23:08,630 --> 00:23:07,919 and it had to move like lightning to get 605 00:23:10,390 --> 00:23:08,640 past her 606 00:23:12,789 --> 00:23:10,400 and get around her so we weren't sure if 607 00:23:15,270 --> 00:23:12,799 it was the same one or a different one 608 00:23:16,789 --> 00:23:15,280 but so you know you leave all 609 00:23:19,909 --> 00:23:16,799 possibilities open 610 00:23:20,310 --> 00:23:19,919 but um and there's other hypotheses 611 00:23:21,830 --> 00:23:20,320 about 612 00:23:23,350 --> 00:23:21,840 you know how it could get from one place 613 00:23:26,630 --> 00:23:23,360 the other faster than her 614 00:23:28,230 --> 00:23:26,640 running or not um but it gets into the 615 00:23:29,110 --> 00:23:28,240 paranormal and right now we just wanted 616 00:23:32,149 --> 00:23:29,120 to treat it as 617 00:23:35,590 --> 00:23:32,159 you know your standard flesh and blood 618 00:23:37,510 --> 00:23:35,600 creature and um 619 00:23:38,789 --> 00:23:37,520 it was so in front of her she turned 620 00:23:40,310 --> 00:23:38,799 around and started going back 621 00:23:42,310 --> 00:23:40,320 again towards the hole where she had 622 00:23:44,149 --> 00:23:42,320 come from and uh 623 00:23:45,909 --> 00:23:44,159 she didn't know where to go she was 624 00:23:46,950 --> 00:23:45,919 trying to find an escape she went around 625 00:23:48,630 --> 00:23:46,960 some brush and 626 00:23:51,269 --> 00:23:48,640 under a mesquite tree and she was 627 00:23:54,390 --> 00:23:51,279 crawling at this point it was behind her 628 00:23:56,149 --> 00:23:54,400 and chasing her and uh it was 629 00:23:58,070 --> 00:23:56,159 she said it was reaching out and trying 630 00:23:59,830 --> 00:23:58,080 to grab at her legs 631 00:24:01,510 --> 00:23:59,840 and she's pretty sure that it it 632 00:24:04,070 --> 00:24:01,520 scratched her legs 633 00:24:04,789 --> 00:24:04,080 um but there were also scratches from 634 00:24:07,909 --> 00:24:04,799 the mesquite 635 00:24:09,990 --> 00:24:07,919 so um she she kind of showed me in my 636 00:24:12,710 --> 00:24:10,000 next book i'll have pictures showing 637 00:24:13,029 --> 00:24:12,720 exactly which mark she was sure that was 638 00:24:16,230 --> 00:24:13,039 it 639 00:24:16,789 --> 00:24:16,240 versus the brush um right here in this 640 00:24:18,710

lot of the the sideways kind of 644 00:24:29,029 --> 00:24:27,360 scratches probably come from mesquite um 645 00:24:31,029 --> 00:24:29,039 something trying to grab her from behind 646 00:24:32,789 --> 00:24:31,039 might might make that 647 00:24:34,630 --> 00:24:32,799 too but you're just not we're just not 648 00:24:37,909 --> 00:24:34,640 sure so 649 00:24:39,590 --> 00:24:37,919 anyway

00:24:56,950 --> 00:24:56,000 he's reaching through the brush from the 660 00:24:59,110 --> 00:24:56,960 road 661 00:25:00,789 --> 00:24:59,120 and trying to to reach out to her but 662 00:25:02,390 --> 00:25:00,799 and she's trying to reach out to him but 663 00:25:03,110 --> 00:25:02,400 they're like still two or three feet 664 00:25:05,110 --> 00:25:03,120 apart 665 00:25:06,149 --> 00:25:05,120 and they can't quite touch each other so 666 00:25:07,990 --> 00:25:06,159 she decides to go 667 00:25:09,590 --> 00:25:08,000 down through the other way and she heads 668 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:09,600 south again and then they finally find 669 00:25:11,830 --> 00:25:11,200 an opening and he meets her at the 670 00:25:14,950 --> 00:25:11,840 opening 671 00:25:17,909 --> 00:25:14,960 following her screams and she's able to 672 00:25:18,710 --> 00:25:17,919 escape out this little opening back to 673 00:25:21,269 --> 00:25:18,720 the road 674 00:25:22,070 --> 00:25:21,279 and they jump in the car and you know 675 00:25:24,630 --> 00:25:22,080 the dog 676 00:25:26,470 --> 00:25:24,640 by this time had gone way down the road 677 00:25:27,190 --> 00:25:26,480 it took off when it when it whimpered 678 00:25:29,669 --> 00:25:27,200 and first 679 00:25:30,390 --> 00:25:29,679 left the dog went down the road it was 680 00:25:33,029 --> 00:25:30,400 going home 681 00:25:33,830 --> 00:25:33,039 it wasn't even it wasn't even going to 682 00:25:35,990 --> 00:25:33,840 wait 683 00:25:37,750 --> 00:25:36,000 or go to the car or anything it just 684 00:25:38,630 --> 00:25:37,760 started taking off towards home miles 685 00:25:41,750 --> 00:25:38,640 away 686 00:25:41,990 --> 00:25:41,760 and they they got the dog and and the 687 00:25:44,390 --> 00:25:42,000 little 688 00:25:45,590 --> 00:25:44,400 boy was really scared because his mother 689 00:25:47,590 --> 00:25:45,600 was screaming 690 00:25:49,510 --> 00:25:47,600 and they got in the car and they took 691 00:25:51,510 --> 00:25:49,520 off and and it was later 692 00:25:52,789 --> 00:25:51,520 when she got home that she realized that 693 00:25:56,230 --> 00:25:52,799 her back 694 00:25:57,830 --> 00:25:56,240 was burning where it touched and they 695 00:25:59,990 --> 00:25:57,840 took those pictures and you could see it 696 00:26:03,110 --> 00:26:00,000 looks different than a bruise it's 697 00:26:04,950 --> 00:26:03,120 it's reddish and she says it burned it 698 00:26:06,789 --> 00:26:04,960 it burned so bad that it felt like it 699 00:26:09,669 --> 00:26:06,799 went through to the bone 700 00:26:10,870 --> 00:26:09,679 just deep deep and it burned for three 701 00:26:13,350 --> 00:26:10,880 days 702 00:26:13,990 --> 00:26:13,360 and until it faded you know the the 703 00:26:17,190 --> 00:26:14,000 aching 704 00:26:19,909 --> 00:26:17,200 from it took three days to fade and 705 00:26:21,669 --> 00:26:19,919 uh and go away and she said it she stunk 706 00:26:25,190 --> 00:26:21,679 she smelled like sulfur 707 00:26:27,830 --> 00:26:25,200 even her hair smelled like sulfur 708 00:26:30,390 --> 00:26:27,840 and uh she didn't know yeah and she had 709 00:26:32,070 --> 00:26:30,400 ptsd like she was afraid to go outside 710 00:26:32,950 --> 00:26:32,080 she didn't ever want to go stargazing 711 00:26:35,510 --> 00:26:32,960 again 712 00:26:36,630 --> 00:26:35,520 she was afraid that of that monsters 713 00:26:38,549 --> 00:26:36,640 were out there and 714 00:26:40,950 --> 00:26:38,559 and she did she felt it was really 715 00:26:41,669 --> 00:26:40,960 important to tell her story that's why 716 00:26:43,750 --> 00:26:41,679 she came 717 00:26:45,830 --> 00:26:43,760 and started calling people she wanted 718 00:26:47,350 --> 00:26:45,840 her story to be known because there's 719 00:26:48,630 --> 00:26:47,360 things out there that could get people 720 00:26:50,549 --> 00:26:48,640 you know get you 721 00:26:52,870 --> 00:26:50,559 and she was really in fear for her life 722 00:26:53,830 --> 00:26:52,880 it really did affect her in a negative 723 00:26:55,909 --> 00:26:53,840 way 724 00:26:57,430 --> 00:26:55,919 and uh i talked to her about that for a 725 00:26:59,669 --> 00:26:57,440 while and um 726 00:27:00,870 --> 00:26:59,679 and uh when i when i met with her and 727 00:27:03,430 --> 00:27:00,880 her and her 728 00:27:05,990 --> 00:27:03,440 husband and her son and we went out in 729 00:27:07,750 --> 00:27:06,000 daylight and it was you know 730 00:27:09,269 --> 00:27:07,760 quite a while later and she was with us 731 00:27:10,390 --> 00:27:09,279 so she was able to go out there in the 732 00:27:13,909 --> 00:27:10,400 daytime 733 00:27:15,430 --> 00:27:13,919 um but and we looked and we never found 734 00:27:15,909 --> 00:27:15,440 a hole in the ground and here we are 735 00:27:18,950 --> 00:27:15,919 again 736 00:27:20,549 --> 00:27:18,960 out near horizon city in a location just 737 00:27:22,549 --> 00:27:20,559 miles up the road 738 00:27:24,789 --> 00:27:22,559 um outside of horizon city that the 739 00:27:26,950 --> 00:27:24,799 first sighting that i investigated was 740 00:27:28,549 --> 00:27:26,960 very close to horizon city it was just 741 00:27:30,310 --> 00:27:28,559 outside the city limits 742 00:27:32,310 --> 00:27:30,320 and then uh this one was a little 743 00:27:35,269 --> 00:27:32,320 further out towards the mountain 744 00:27:37,430 --> 00:27:35,279 but on the same almost on the same road 745 00:27:40,870 --> 00:27:37,440 just just off that same road 746 00:27:42,549 --> 00:27:40,880 and um one 747 00:27:43,909 --> 00:27:42,559 bigfoot was going down into a hole in 748 00:27:45,350 --> 00:27:43,919 the ground that didn't exist and the 749 00:27:46,710 --> 00:27:45,360 other one was coming out of a hole in 750 00:27:47,990 --> 00:27:46,720 the ground that didn't exist we could 751 00:27:50,149 --> 00:27:48,000 not find the hole 752 00:27:51,990 --> 00:27:50,159 now it's possible that in six months or 753 00:27:54,389 --> 00:27:52,000 seven months or whatever it was 754 00:27:56,789 --> 00:27:54,399 that that it could have washed you know 755 00:27:59,590 --> 00:27:56,799 there you could see clear 756 00:28:00,950 --> 00:27:59,600 where uh clearly where the water had run 757 00:28:05,669 --> 00:28:00,960 off the road 758 00:28:08,470 --> 00:28:05,679 and and um it fills that whole area 759 00:28:10,630 --> 00:28:08,480 and the grass is all pushed over all in 760 00:28:13,590 --> 00:28:10,640 the same direction from the water 761 00:28:15,430 --> 00:28:13,600 so it it floods through there and then 762 00:28:16,230 --> 00:28:15,440 it runs off down into an arroyo further 763 00:28:19,669 --> 00:28:16,240 down 764 00:28:21,430 --> 00:28:19,679 and uh it uh it it's just 765 00:28:23,350 --> 00:28:21,440 you know it's possible that if there was 766 00:28:26,230 --> 00:28:23,360 a hole that it was 767 00:28:27,909 --> 00:28:26,240 filled in we couldn't find really a 768 00:28:30,950 --> 00:28:27,919 strong depression though 769 00:28:33,990 --> 00:28:30,960 uh it's possible that it was re-buried 770 00:28:35,350 --> 00:28:34,000 if there was a hole um and it's possible 771 00:28:37,350 --> 00:28:35,360 that it was not a very 772 00:28:39,110 --> 00:28:37,360 deep hole and it was laying flat rather 773 00:28:40,070 --> 00:28:39,120 than coming up out in a standing 774 00:28:42,389 --> 00:28:40,080 position 775 00:28:43,350 --> 00:28:42,399 so that's a possibility too so we looked 776 00:28:47,029 --> 00:28:43,360 at all those 777 00:28:49,110 --> 00:28:47,039 things but um it was just 778 00:28:50,310 --> 00:28:49,120 fascinating that she had physical 779 00:28:53,590 --> 00:28:50,320 evidence a 780 00:28:54,630 --> 00:28:53,600 picture of injuries and then i spoke 781 00:28:56,630 --> 00:28:54,640 with her husband 782 00:28:58,389 --> 00:28:56,640 and he verified the whole story he said 783 00:29:00,310 --> 00:28:58,399 yeah i was i was trying to get to her i 784 00:29:02,470 --> 00:29:00,320 was really scared i didn't understand 785 00:29:03,350 --> 00:29:02,480 what was and then he said at one point 786 00:29:06,149 --> 00:29:03,360 when he looked over 787 00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:06,159 about the time when she was was was 788 00:29:08,950 --> 00:29:06,640 running 789 00:29:09,750 --> 00:29:08,960 up to to escape to the north towards the 790 00:29:11,750 --> 00:29:09,760 big tree 791 00:29:13,269 --> 00:29:11,760 she said that that he said that tall one 792 00:29:17,190 --> 00:29:13,279 that was blocking 793 00:29:18,310 --> 00:29:17,200 the her way that he saw that a black 794 00:29:21,430 --> 00:29:18,320 shadow 795 00:29:21,750 --> 00:29:21,440 a tall figure um and

around by that time 800 00:29:32,549 --> 00:29:31,039 and uh so he saw that just barely but he 801 00:29:36,230 --> 00:29:32,559 saw it in the moonlight 802 00:29:38,549 --> 00:29:36,240 and um and

but boy i was lucky to get a hold of you 862 00:31:43,110 --> 00:31:40,240 and folks it's in the book 863 00:31:45,269 --> 00:31:43,120 the book is fantastic it's it's a huge 864 00:31:47,269 --> 00:31:45,279 book it's got everything in there 865 00:31:49,750 --> 00:31:47,279 uh you know i don't think i've ever had 866 00:31:52,710 --> 00:31:49,760 a more comprehensive big book book 867 00:31:55,029 --> 00:31:52,720 it's over 500 pages it's a lot in there 868 00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:55,039 but anyway 869 00:31:58,870 --> 00:31:56,960 this uh you said took four years to 870 00:32:02,230 --> 00:31:58,880 write this book 871 00:32:04,549 --> 00:32:02,240 mm-hmm yeah that's a lot of work 872 00:32:05,990 --> 00:32:04,559 but yeah and it's on my research before 873 00:32:08,789 --> 00:32:06,000 that as well as 874 00:32:10,389 --> 00:32:08,799 a lot of newer stuff though well that's 875 00:32:11,669 --> 00:32:10,399 a lot of good stuff in there i mean it 876 00:32:16,149 --> 00:32:11,679 really is 877 00:32:19,029 --> 00:32:16,159 um is this the most aggressive 878 00:32:21,830 --> 00:32:19,039 bigfoot encounter that you have heard of 879 00:32:25,909 --> 00:32:24,789 probably not that i've heard of um but 880 00:32:31,909 --> 00:32:25,919 investigated 881 00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:31,919 um and to have physical evidence like 882 00:32:37,190 --> 00:32:32,960 that 883 00:32:41,269 --> 00:32:37,200 was intriguing compelling 884 00:32:43,110 --> 00:32:41,279 yeah for sure and um 885 00:32:45,350 --> 00:32:43,120 i i like i said we don't have any 886 00:32:49,190 --> 00:32:45,360 answers we just have you know 887 00:32:55,830 --> 00:32:52,549 you know jc johnson uh 888 00:32:56,630 --> 00:32:55,840 used to tell me how aggressive these 889 00:33:00,710 --> 00:32:56,640 bigfoot 890 00:33:03,990 --> 00:33:00,720 in the in the desert are um you know 891 00:33:06,789 --> 00:33:04,000 i i took a lot of that just you know 892 00:33:08,710 --> 00:33:06,799 by his experiences i've talked to others 893 00:33:11,029 --> 00:33:08,720 as well you know david weatherly used to 894 00:33:12,710 --> 00:33:11,039 go out with him a few other researchers 895 00:33:14,630 --> 00:33:12,720 but they said the same thing they seem 896 00:33:16,549 --> 00:33:14,640 to be much more aggressive 897 00:33:18,070 --> 00:33:16,559 than those beings that you encounter in 898 00:33:20,310 --> 00:33:18,080 the woods and such 899 00:33:21,430 --> 00:33:20,320 i don't know it's just because the rough 900 00:33:23,750 --> 00:33:21,440 terrain and 901 00:33:25,509 --> 00:33:23,760 you know it's uh it's a harder living 902 00:33:27,909 --> 00:33:25,519 for them i don't know 903 00:33:30,310 --> 00:33:27,919 but they he did tell me that he felt 904 00:33:33,509 --> 00:33:30,320 they were much more aggressive 905 00:33:36,230 --> 00:33:33,519 uh it's funny you had mentioned dr dr 906 00:33:37,669 --> 00:33:36,240 chris dyer in there as well 907 00:33:39,669 --> 00:33:37,679 he was involved with a lot of the 908 00:33:41,990 --> 00:33:39,679 investigations with jc 909 00:33:44,230 --> 00:33:42,000 especially the last couple years in and 910 00:33:47,190 --> 00:33:44,240 around the uh the novelhood reservation 911 00:33:47,909 --> 00:33:47,200 so you know i i will tell folks i mean 912 00:33:50,149 --> 00:33:47,919 you you 913 00:33:52,149 --> 00:33:50,159 described him in there as a good guy and 914 00:33:54,549 --> 00:33:52,159 he is really he's a good investigator 915 00:33:55,350 --> 00:33:54,559 and he's very he's also a professor at 916 00:34:00,070 --> 00:33:55,360 uh 917 00:34:03,269 --> 00:34:02,630 yeah is it was it yeah he's in gallup 918 00:34:10,629 --> 00:34:03,279 yeah 919 00:34:13,030 --> 00:34:10,639 so uh and you know he's uh he's another 920 00:34:16,389 --> 00:34:13,040 one of these few scientists that 921 00:34:25,829 --> 00:34:16,399 believe the phenomena and uh you know 922 00:34:32,470 --> 00:34:29,349 it's interesting that you had 923 00:34:33,109 --> 00:34:32,480 been involved with these this area and 924 00:34:36,389 --> 00:34:33,119 then 925 00:34:38,149 --> 00:34:36,399 something like this came up but uh it 926 00:34:39,349 --> 00:34:38,159 kind of reinforces what you had 927 00:34:42,389 --> 00:34:39,359 been writing about from the very 928 00:34:49,909 --> 00:34:46,829 yeah it's um it's interesting 929 00:34:51,750 --> 00:34:49,919 because i i have noticed a pattern 930 00:34:53,270 --> 00:34:51,760 in in how they move through the desert 931 00:34:55,270 --> 00:34:53,280 you said you know it's because of the 932 00:34:56,470 --> 00:34:55,280 harsh environment um i had come to the 933 00:34:59,030 --> 00:34:56,480 same conclusion 934 00:34:59,910 --> 00:34:59,040 quite a while back um they tend to 935 00:35:03,349 --> 00:34:59,920 follow 936 00:35:06,630 --> 00:35:03,359 mountain ranges and ways 937 00:35:09,030 --> 00:35:06,640 you know and water water's kind of 938 00:35:12,790 --> 00:35:09,040 scarce in the desert you know you can 939 00:35:18,310 --> 00:35:16,870 you know open up a open up a cactus or 940 00:35:19,510 --> 00:35:18,320 something but otherwise there's not a 941 00:35:21,670 --> 00:35:19,520 lot of water out there 942 00:35:24,630 --> 00:35:21,680 and you know you can dig in the right 943 00:35:26,630 --> 00:35:24,640 places in the origins and 944 00:35:28,390 --> 00:35:26,640 you can you can find wacos in the 945 00:35:31,349 --> 00:35:28,400 mountains and 946 00:35:32,470 --> 00:35:31,359 different different things but it's um 947 00:35:34,870 --> 00:35:32,480 it's difficult 948 00:35:35,670 --> 00:35:34,880 so it's there's with scarce water 949 00:35:37,750 --> 00:35:35,680 resources 950 00:35:39,910 --> 00:35:37,760 and a large body that would probably 951 00:35:42,950 --> 00:35:39,920 require a lot more water 952 00:35:44,069 --> 00:35:42,960 um they there was a in horizon city uh 953 00:35:46,870 --> 00:35:44,079 there's a small lake 954 00:35:47,990 --> 00:35:46,880 out there that was man-made and there is 955 00:35:49,750 --> 00:35:48,000 a story you know 956 00:35:51,349 --> 00:35:49,760 everybody out there says hey have you 957 00:35:53,190 --> 00:35:51,359 heard about the bigfoot that they saw 958 00:35:54,790 --> 00:35:53,200 drinking out of the lake it kneeled down 959 00:35:56,710 --> 00:35:54,800 and was scooping water 960 00:35:57,990 --> 00:35:56,720 and i'm like yeah i've heard that one 961 00:36:00,710 --> 00:35:58,000 lots of times 962 00:36:01,589 --> 00:36:00,720 and uh you know it's everybody knows 963 00:36:04,390 --> 00:36:01,599 that story 964 00:36:05,190 --> 00:36:04,400 and it's it's not surprising to me at 965 00:36:07,109 --> 00:36:05,200 all because 966 00:36:10,710 --> 00:36:07,119 they're they got a drink too i suppose 967 00:36:13,829 --> 00:36:10,720 if they're if they're flesh and blood 968 00:36:15,589 --> 00:36:13,839 and that's another big question there 969 00:36:16,230 --> 00:36:15,599 there's another report i sent you back 970 00:36:19,990 --> 00:36:16,240 into 971 00:36:22,870 --> 00:36:20,000 back in july of 2020 972 00:36:23,910 --> 00:36:22,880 of uh and this is kind of a strange 973 00:36:26,870 --> 00:36:23,920 story 974 00:36:28,710 --> 00:36:26,880 but this uh these small hairy hominids 975 00:36:30,790 --> 00:36:28,720 that were observed 976 00:36:32,390 --> 00:36:30,800 by these fossil hunters out in west 977 00:36:33,750 --> 00:36:32,400 texas can you tell us a little bit about 978 00:36:36,630 --> 00:36:33,760 that 979 00:36:37,430

00:36:40,960 his daughter went out 983 00:36:46,710 --> 00:36:44,800 um it was in west texas and uh 984 00:36:49,109 --> 00:36:46,720 uh if i remember right i'm trying to 985 00:36:51,030 --> 00:36:49,119 remember the exact spot though 986 00:36:52,790 --> 00:36:51,040 it was uh near fort stockton in the 987 00:36:54,950 --> 00:36:52,800 davis mountains yes that's right and 988 00:36:57,109 --> 00:36:54,960 they were hiking out by the mountains 989 00:36:58,310 --> 00:36:57,119 and he showed me aerial photographs of 990 00:37:01,430 --> 00:36:58,320 where they were 991 00:37:02,390 --> 00:37:01,440 and um gosh i should pull that up 992 00:37:03,910 --> 00:37:02,400 sometime and 993 00:37:05,670 --> 00:37:03,920 look at it again because it's amazing 994 00:37:05,990

00:37:45,440 funny because when i talked to them they 1010 00:37:48,790 --> 00:37:47,359 told me the um 1011 00:37:50,390 --> 00:37:48,800 they you know they're out there fossil 1012 00:37:51,829 --> 00:37:50,400 hunting and apparently they've gone out 1013 00:37:54,069 --> 00:37:51,839 there alive 1014 00:37:55,910 --> 00:37:54,079 but as they were you know they were 1015 00:37:59,589 --> 00:37:55,920 looking and digging 1016 00:38:01,589 --> 00:37:59,599 his the daughter i i believe saw this 1017 00:38:03,190 --> 00:38:01,599 looked behind her and saw these things 1018 00:38:05,589 --> 00:38:03,200 in a group 1019 00:38:06,470 --> 00:38:05,599 and it must been a fairly decent 1020 00:38:08,390 --> 00:38:06,480 distance 1021 00:38:10,630 --> 00:38:08,400 but as soon as she looked at them they 1022 00:38:14,390 --> 00:38:10,640 started dispersing they ran off 1023 00:38:16,950 --> 00:38:14,400 right they did congregated again 1024 00:38:18,150 --> 00:38:16,960 they turned around and then when they 1025 00:38:19,829 --> 00:38:18,160 looked back in then they 1026 00:38:21,430 --> 00:38:19,839 started scattering again it's the 1027 00:38:24,069 --> 00:38:21,440 damnedest

thought 1031 00:38:31,190 --> 00:38:29,760 they were a little bigfoot or you know 1032 00:38:32,069 --> 00:38:31,200 littlefoot or what do you want to call 1033 00:38:34,950 --> 00:38:32,079 them sometimes 1034 00:38:35,510 --> 00:38:34,960 hairy hominin but i had no idea what 1035 00:38:37,589 --> 00:38:35,520 that was 1036 00:38:39,190 --> 00:38:37,599 that's the first time i heard that i 1037 00:38:41,349 --> 00:38:39,200 i've heard of them before but 1038 00:38:42,710 --> 00:38:41,359 i'd never have you when before that had 1039 00:38:44,950 --> 00:38:42,720 actually seen them 1040 00:38:46,150 --> 00:38:44,960 yeah i've heard stories of them but uh 1041 00:38:48,470 --> 00:38:46,160 never out there 1042 00:38:49,589 --> 00:38:48,480 and never personally you know spoken 1043 00:38:52,630 --> 00:38:49,599 with someone until that 1044 00:38:53,990 --> 00:38:52,640 until that case but um that was 1045 00:38:56,069 --> 00:38:54,000 fascinating they did they 1046 00:38:58,630 --> 00:38:56,079 they would make little noises and i if i 1047 00:39:00,069 --> 00:38:58,640 remember right and they kind of like 1048 00:39:01,670 --> 00:39:00,079 i don't know if they were laughing or 1049 00:39:03,750 --> 00:39:01,680 snickering or what they were doing or 1050 00:39:05,430 --> 00:39:03,760 joking maybe they were juveniles i'm not 1051 00:39:07,270 --> 00:39:05,440 sure what they were but they were acting 1052 00:39:09,910 --> 00:39:07,280 very juvenile-like 1053 00:39:11,670 --> 00:39:09,920 um dispersing and trying to hide and 1054 00:39:12,950 --> 00:39:11,680 then coming back together and following 1055 00:39:15,990 --> 00:39:12,960 them they followed them 1056 00:39:17,670 --> 00:39:16,000 quite a ways back on the trail 1057 00:39:19,030 --> 00:39:17,680 so they saw them when they were almost 1058 00:39:21,589 --> 00:39:19,040 out towards the end 1059 00:39:23,190 --> 00:39:21,599 and then they kept going and then they 1060 00:39:24,790 --> 00:39:23,200 turned around and started heading back 1061 00:39:27,430 --> 00:39:24,800 and they followed them three quarters of 1062 00:39:31,829 --> 00:39:29,589 hiding and dispersing and coming back 1063 00:39:33,990 --> 00:39:31,839 and yeah 1064 00:39:35,910 --> 00:39:34,000 that sounds like something when you talk 1065 00:39:36,470 --> 00:39:35,920 about faye or gnomes or something like 1066 00:39:38,550 --> 00:39:36,480 that 1067 00:39:43,510 --> 00:39:38,560 where they they noticed you were looking 1068 00:39:48,790 --> 00:39:46,790 yeah that's that's weird anyway you know 1069 00:39:51,910 --> 00:39:48,800 let me ask you this 1070 00:39:56,470 --> 00:39:51,920 now you since you got involved with the 1071 00:39:59,670 --> 00:39:56,480 investigating bigfoot and harry hominids 1072 00:40:01,589 --> 00:39:59,680 uh how's it affected you has it changed 1073 00:40:04,309 --> 00:40:01,599 your life uh 1074 00:40:06,190 --> 00:40:04,319 i you know it's it's funny and and i can 1075 00:40:08,870 --> 00:40:06,200 talk about liminality now 1076 00:40:10,630 --> 00:40:08,880 liminalization is is when someone has a 1077 00:40:13,910 --> 00:40:10,640 liminal experience 1078 00:40:17,030 --> 00:40:13,920 they're usually in between 1079 00:40:19,430 --> 00:40:17,040 two two statuses like let's say from 1080 00:40:20,390 --> 00:40:19,440 unbeliever to believer that's just one 1081 00:40:23,990 --> 00:40:20,400 example 1082 00:40:25,430 --> 00:40:24,000 of many um but you could go from 1083 00:40:27,589 --> 00:40:25,440 someone who doesn't believe in bigfoot 1084 00:40:30,790 --> 00:40:27,599 at all and then 1085 00:40:33,510 --> 00:40:30,800 you have this experience let's say and 1086 00:40:35,270 --> 00:40:33,520 it changes you like it affects you and 1087 00:40:36,710 --> 00:40:35,280 you start researching it and you talk to 1088 00:40:37,990 --> 00:40:36,720 other people who have had similar 1089 00:40:40,230 --> 00:40:38,000 experiences and 1090 00:40:42,390 --> 00:40:40,240 get some things verified and confirmed 1091 00:40:45,030 --> 00:40:42,400 and at least in your mind right 1092 00:40:46,069 --> 00:40:45,040 and you go through this process of like 1093 00:40:49,270 --> 00:40:46,079 well i don't believe 1094 00:40:50,150 --> 00:40:49,280 to oh my god what just happened and what 1095 00:40:52,150 --> 00:40:50,160 was that 1096 00:40:54,470 --> 00:40:52,160 and you start researching and finding 1097 00:40:56,950 --> 00:40:54,480 out more as much as you can 1098 00:40:57,589 --> 00:40:56,960 and you you then you become you know you 1099 00:41:00,550 --> 00:40:57,599 kind of join 1100 00:41:01,510 --> 00:41:00,560 groups of people and you you have shared 1101 00:41:04,069 --> 00:41:01,520 information 1102 00:41:04,870 --> 00:41:04,079 so lots of cultural sharing going on and 1103 00:41:06,950 --> 00:41:04,880 then 1104 00:41:08,069 --> 00:41:06,960 at in the end there's this point where 1105 00:41:11,270 --> 00:41:08,079 you turn and you 1106 00:41:13,829 --> 00:41:11,280 and you become a believer let's say and 1107 00:41:15,750 --> 00:41:13,839 at that point your liminal experience is 1108 00:41:17,510 --> 00:41:15,760 over because you've you've switched 1109 00:41:19,030 --> 00:41:17,520 it's called trans tribalism you switch 1110 00:41:20,550 --> 00:41:19,040 from one tribe to the other you've gone 1111 00:41:23,109 --> 00:41:20,560 from unbeliever to believer 1112 00:41:24,150 --> 00:41:23,119 and this liminal state is that middle 1113 00:41:26,309 --> 00:41:24,160 state where 1114 00:41:27,829 --> 00:41:26,319 you're it's everything's changing and 1115 00:41:29,510 --> 00:41:27,839 you're growing and you're learning 1116 00:41:30,870 --> 00:41:29,520 things and you don't quite know where 1117 00:41:33,030 --> 00:41:30,880 you belong 1118 00:41:34,870 --> 00:41:33,040 um and you don't belong to either group 1119 00:41:38,790 --> 00:41:34,880 anymore you know like 1120 00:41:41,829 --> 00:41:38,800 in this stuck in and me i'm stuck there 1121 00:41:43,430 --> 00:41:41,839 i ride the fence i am neither a believer 1122 00:41:46,630 --> 00:41:43,440 nor an unbeliever i take 1123 00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:46,640 i'm very open-minded and but i think 1124 00:41:51,589 --> 00:41:48,000 hard about things and 1125 00:41:53,430 --> 00:41:51,599 um i think critically and and i i 1126 00:41:55,670 --> 00:41:53,440 observe and i pay attention and when i 1127 00:41:58,309 --> 00:41:55,680 even when i investigate something 1128 00:41:59,829 --> 00:41:58,319 i try to consider everything from flesh 1129 00:42:02,950 --> 00:41:59,839 and blood to paranormal to 1130 00:42:05,349 --> 00:42:02,960 to whatever um 1131 00:42:06,390 --> 00:42:05,359 alien off-world interdimensional all of 1132 00:42:08,309 --> 00:42:06,400 it you just have to 1133 00:42:09,589 --> 00:42:08,319 you have to keep an open mind because as 1134 00:42:12,790 --> 00:42:09,599 soon as you say 1135 00:42:13,430 --> 00:42:12,800 it's one thing or another you've boxed 1136 00:42:15,109 --> 00:42:13,440 it 1137 00:42:18,870 --> 00:42:15,119 and then you're not open to anything 1138 00:42:21,750 --> 00:42:18,880 else except that interpretation 1139 00:42:22,069 --> 00:42:21,760 yeah and so i i don't want to be there i 1140 00:42:29,990 --> 00:42:22,079 i 1141 00:42:32,390 --> 00:42:30,000 and not 1142 00:42:34,069 --> 00:42:32,400 maybe i'm afraid i'll miss something if 1143 00:42:35,349 --> 00:42:34,079 i try to box it and say oh yeah it's 1144 00:42:37,190 --> 00:42:35,359 this or that 1145 00:42:38,630 --> 00:42:37,200 and i and i think as an investigator 1146 00:42:40,630 --> 00:42:38,640 it's very important that i 1147 00:42:42,390 --> 00:42:40,640 don't do that i don't want to just say 1148 00:42:45,190 --> 00:42:42,400 oh yeah you're right or oh yeah you're 1149 00:42:46,309 --> 00:42:45,200 or you're wrong when you know it may not 1150 00:42:49,030 --> 00:42:46,319 be the case 1151 00:42:49,510 --> 00:42:49,040 so i i listen and i pay attention but i 1152 00:42:53,030 --> 00:42:49,520 do 1153 00:42:53,349 --> 00:42:53,040 uh analyze a lot and um especially when 1154 00:42:55,349 --> 00:42:53,359 i'm 1155 00:42:56,550 --> 00:42:55,359 interviewing people i even use nlp 1156 00:42:58,870 --> 00:42:56,560 techniques 1157 00:43:00,230 --> 00:42:58,880 um neuro linguistic programming so i 1158 00:43:01,990 --> 00:43:00,240 watch where they're pulling in from 1159 00:43:03,430 --> 00:43:02,000 information from their brain i see how 1160 00:43:05,430 --> 00:43:03,440 they're wired i 1161 00:43:07,270 --> 00:43:05,440 see if they're pulling from feeling if 1162 00:43:08,950 --> 00:43:07,280 they have feelings about something or if 1163 00:43:09,910 --> 00:43:08,960 they're pulling from auditory memory or 1164 00:43:16,230 --> 00:43:09,920 construct 1165 00:43:19,030 --> 00:43:16,240 you can kind of you can you can tell if 1166 00:43:20,630 --> 00:43:19,040 someone's had a real experience 1167 00:43:23,030 --> 00:43:20,640 based on if they're pulling from their 1168 00:43:26,150 --> 00:43:23,040 memory um or not 1169 00:43:26,710 --> 00:43:26,160 now if someone tells a story and it's 1170 00:43:28,950 --> 00:43:26,720 false 1171 00:43:30,710 --> 00:43:28,960 and if they're hoaxing and they tell it 1172 00:43:31,589 --> 00:43:30,720 long enough that they actually begin to 1173 00:43:33,910 --> 00:43:31,599 believe it 1174 00:43:35,750 --> 00:43:33,920 then you can't tell the difference um 1175 00:43:36,710 --> 00:43:35,760 but generally if someone just came up 1176 00:43:38,550 --> 00:43:36,720 with something they're 1177 00:43:41,109 --> 00:43:38,560 they're gonna tell on themselves if 1178 00:43:42,390 --> 00:43:41,119 they're if they're lying it's gonna show 1179 00:43:44,150 --> 00:43:42,400 it's gonna show in a handwriting 1180 00:43:47,270 --> 00:43:44,160 analysis it's gonna show in their 1181 00:43:48,630 --> 00:43:47,280 in their speech and uh and the things 1182 00:43:50,150 --> 00:43:48,640 they say and where they're pulling 1183 00:43:51,589 --> 00:43:50,160 information from in their head 1184 00:43:54,790 --> 00:43:51,599 and so i look at all of that when i 1185 00:43:57,030 --> 00:43:54,800 interview people um so 1186 00:43:58,150 --> 00:43:57,040 you know most people that talk to me 1187 00:44:00,870 --> 00:43:58,160 don't realize that 1188 00:44:01,430 --> 00:44:00,880 i just use these techniques quietly and 1189 00:44:03,109 --> 00:44:01,440 um 1190 00:44:04,550 --> 00:44:03,119 just because i have experience with them 1191 00:44:08,309 --> 00:44:04,560 and some training 1192 00:44:09,589 --> 00:44:08,319 so it's it's probably good to have that 1193 00:44:12,950 --> 00:44:09,599 when you're in the field and 1194 00:44:14,950 --> 00:44:12,960 and doing uh uh investigations i'd say 1195 00:44:16,710 --> 00:44:14,960 and talking with you know people 1196 00:44:19,589 --> 00:44:16,720 interviewing them but uh 1197 00:44:19,910 --> 00:44:19,599 um otherwise in the end you know it only 1198 00:44:21,510 --> 00:44:19,920 get 1199 00:44:23,270 --> 00:44:21,520 there it's kind of like anecdotal 1200 00:44:24,790 --> 00:44:23,280 evidence you have stories 1201 00:44:26,470 --> 00:44:24,800 you have people that tell stories and 1202 00:44:28,550 --> 00:44:26,480 this is what happened to them 1203 00:44:30,790 --> 00:44:28,560 and that's their interpretation of it 1204 00:44:33,109 --> 00:44:30,800 you know the lady the first lady 1205 00:44:34,829 --> 00:44:33,119 cecilia mangenies and that is a pen name 1206 00:44:37,270 --> 00:44:34,839 she never wanted me to give out her real 1207 00:44:38,950 --> 00:44:37,280 name cecilia montagne is the one that 1208 00:44:40,870 --> 00:44:38,960 saw the bigfoot walk 1209 00:44:42,550 --> 00:44:40,880 over the mound and down and down and 1210 00:44:44,470 --> 00:44:42,560 down into the ground 1211 00:44:46,710 --> 00:44:44,480 that was her interpretation of what she 1212 00:44:47,750 --> 00:44:46,720 saw we don't know if it walked into the 1213 00:44:49,910 --> 00:44:47,760 ground 1214 00:44:51,910 --> 00:44:49,920 she just saw the head get lower and 1215 00:44:52,230 --> 00:44:51,920 lower and lower behind the mound until 1216 00:44:54,630 --> 00:44:52,240 it 1217 00:44:56,309 --> 00:44:54,640 just got like you know three or four 1218 00:44:58,150 --> 00:44:56,319 feet tops 1219 00:44:59,829 --> 00:44:58,160 and maybe a little lower than that um 1220 00:45:01,510 --> 00:44:59,839 and then just was gone 1221 00:45:03,349 --> 00:45:01,520 you know was it trying to get on its 1222 00:45:05,510 --> 00:45:03,359 knees and laying down and pretending 1223 00:45:07,670 --> 00:45:05,520 it was going into the ground or did it 1224 00:45:09,829 --> 00:45:07,680 actually go in the ground we don't know 1225 00:45:11,349 --> 00:45:09,839 so we have to you have to kind of look 1226 00:45:12,790 --> 00:45:11,359 at everything but 1227 00:45:14,790 --> 00:45:12,800 you know that that's if you're trying to 1228 00:45:16,790 --> 00:45:14,800 decipher what really happened 1229 00:45:18,870 --> 00:45:16,800 and uh i just think it's really 1230 00:45:20,069 --> 00:45:18,880 important to to write everything down 1231 00:45:21,430 --> 00:45:20,079 when you make a report 1232 00:45:23,270 --> 00:45:21,440 because you don't know what might be 1233 00:45:25,030 --> 00:45:23,280 important later 1234 00:45:27,829 --> 00:45:25,040 you know we'll start getting all these 1235 00:45:30,230 --> 00:45:27,839 other um 1236 00:45:31,430 --> 00:45:30,240 things that start showing patterns uh 1237 00:45:34,309 --> 00:45:31,440 one of the patterns that i 1238 00:45:34,790 --> 00:45:34,319 discovered when i was doing my research 1239 00:45:37,430 --> 00:45:34,800 between 1240 00:45:39,270 --> 00:45:37,440 uh west texas and southern new mexico i 1241 00:45:42,230 --> 00:45:39,280 was in the sacramento mountains a lot 1242 00:45:44,230 --> 00:45:42,240 um up near mescalero uh apache indian 1243 00:45:46,870 --> 00:45:44,240 reservation i have

had had a bigfoot portal 1253 00:46:10,470 --> 00:46:05,760 experience and his 1254 00:46:12,710 --> 00:46:10,480 his uh stories in my book too but um 1255 00:46:14,790 --> 00:46:12,720 one of the features that was really 1256 00:46:16,870 --> 00:46:14,800 common in the southwest 1257 00:46:18,550 --> 00:46:16,880 bigfoot the desert apes is what i call 1258 00:46:19,750 --> 00:46:18,560 them and my next book will be named that 1259 00:46:24,870 --> 00:46:19,760 desert apes 1260 00:46:28,309 --> 00:46:27,349 that their hair was a certain color and 1261 00:46:31,030 --> 00:46:28,319 then there were 1262 00:46:32,069 --> 00:46:31,040 two additional colors mixed in and it 1263 00:46:34,790 --> 00:46:32,079 was the same 1264 00:46:35,990 --> 00:46:34,800 every time it was usual anytime someone 1265 00:46:38,390 --> 00:46:36,000 saw it in the day 1266 00:46:40,150 --> 00:46:38,400 the hair was almost black but not quite 1267 00:46:42,630 --> 00:46:40,160 it was a very dark brown 1268 00:46:44,309 --> 00:46:42,640 and then on top of that there was a 1269 00:46:47,030 --> 00:46:44,319 reddish hue 1270 00:46:47,510 --> 00:46:47,040 and then at the very ends of the hairs 1271 00:46:51,030 --> 00:46:47,520 they 1272 00:46:53,910 --> 00:46:51,040 white but 1273 00:46:54,950 --> 00:46:53,920 faded like they like sun bleached kind 1274 00:46:58,150 --> 00:46:54,960 of faded 1275 00:46:59,589 --> 00:46:58,160 and that was a common feature from the 1276 00:47:01,589 --> 00:46:59,599 witnesses 1277 00:47:02,790 --> 00:47:01,599 throughout the southwest area where i 1278 00:47:04,550 --> 00:47:02,800 investigated 1279 00:47:06,150 --> 00:47:04,560 and these people did not know each other 1280 00:47:08,950 --> 00:47:06,160 and i and i didn't 1281 00:47:11,030 --> 00:47:08,960 always tell that information but there 1282 00:47:14,710 --> 00:47:11,040 was one piece of information that i kept 1283 00:47:15,910 --> 00:47:14,720 off the internet um and that was that 1284 00:47:18,470 --> 00:47:15,920 they all said 1285 00:47:20,309 --> 00:47:18,480 unanimously that there was this really 1286 00:47:22,870 --> 00:47:20,319 long hair under the forearm 1287 00:47:24,710 --> 00:47:22,880 i mean the same broad shoulders the same 1288 00:47:27,030 --> 00:47:24,720 you know short neck the same hairy 1289 00:47:30,309 --> 00:47:27,040 everywhere the three colors in the hair 1290 00:47:32,470 --> 00:47:30,319 um but 1291 00:47:34,710 --> 00:47:32,480 this long hair in the forearm was 1292 00:47:38,470 --> 00:47:34,720 something that i did not publicize 1293 00:47:40,230 --> 00:47:38,480 and it was in all of them too so 1294 00:47:41,910 --> 00:47:40,240 and i couldn't find the information when 1295 00:47:43,670 --> 00:47:41,920 i looked online 1296 00:47:45,670 --> 00:47:43,680 trying to find other sightings that were 1297 00:47:48,230 --> 00:47:45,680 similar and i couldn't find too much out 1298 00:47:50,870 --> 00:47:48,240 there like that at all 1299 00:47:51,990 --> 00:47:50,880 so i thought that was really interesting 1300 00:47:54,309 --> 00:47:52,000 but that kept showing 1301 00:47:55,589 --> 00:47:54,319 up so to me these this is you know 1302 00:47:58,630 --> 00:47:55,599 anecdotal evidence 1303 00:48:01,190 --> 00:47:58,640 is people stories and that's not always 1304 00:48:02,950 --> 00:48:01,200 necessarily the truth but it if you get 1305 00:48:03,589 --> 00:48:02,960 enough of it it starts pointing to the 1306 00:48:06,549 --> 00:48:03,599 truth 1307 00:48:07,030 --> 00:48:06,559 and so i i feel that there's some weight 1308 00:48:09,030 --> 00:48:07,040 there 1309 00:48:11,190 --> 00:48:09,040 with anecdotal evidence when when you 1310 00:48:13,990 --> 00:48:11,200 start finding patterns 1311 00:48:14,710 --> 00:48:14,000 so yeah you know i'm kind of in the same 1312 00:48:18,309 --> 00:48:14,720 boat i 1313 00:48:20,309 --> 00:48:18,319 you know when i had my sighting in 81 1314 00:48:21,589 --> 00:48:20,319 i i you know i had heard of bigfoot of 1315 00:48:23,910 --> 00:48:21,599 course you heard a bigfoot that was 1316 00:48:29,270 --> 00:48:23,920 about the time when the uh 1317 00:48:32,390 --> 00:48:31,190 down in arkansas you know the fountain 1318 00:48:35,430 --> 00:48:32,400 monster 1319 00:48:37,349 --> 00:48:35,440 and um 1320 00:48:38,710 --> 00:48:37,359 you know i saw this thing it thing was 1321 00:48:40,790 --> 00:48:38,720 closed to me 1322 00:48:42,069 --> 00:48:40,800 um thank god it didn't scream at me my 1323 00:48:44,870 --> 00:48:42,079 lord i i you know 1324 00:48:47,349 --> 00:48:44,880 but it was bad enough but i i'm looking 1325 00:48:49,990 --> 00:48:47,359 at this thing not knowing what it was 1326 00:48:51,190 --> 00:48:50,000 looked more human than it did ape but 1327 00:48:54,309 --> 00:48:51,200 anyway 1328 00:48:56,069 --> 00:48:54,319 i um i really didn't know what i was 1329 00:48:58,630 --> 00:48:56,079 looking at 1330 00:48:59,990 --> 00:48:58,640 you know and as years went by and i 1331 00:49:01,510 --> 00:49:00,000 started getting more and more involved 1332 00:49:02,790 --> 00:49:01,520 because look that's what put me over the 1333 00:49:04,710 --> 00:49:02,800 edge as far as 1334 00:49:06,390 --> 00:49:04,720 starting to get encrypted because you 1335 00:49:08,069 --> 00:49:06,400 know i was just i was actually a 1336 00:49:10,069 --> 00:49:08,079 paranormal investigator just doing 1337 00:49:12,790 --> 00:49:10,079 hauntings and such before that 1338 00:49:13,190 --> 00:49:12,800 but since i had that experience i wanted 1339 00:49:16,710 --> 00:49:13,200 to 1340 00:49:19,750 --> 00:49:16,720 roy went head 1341 00:49:20,390 --> 00:49:19,760 first into it but then this thing came 1342 00:49:22,470 --> 00:49:20,400 up about 1343 00:49:23,589 --> 00:49:22,480 is this are these things real is this an 1344 00:49:26,710 --> 00:49:23,599 actual being 1345 00:49:28,710 --> 00:49:26,720 was this something that i just 1346 00:49:31,430 --> 00:49:28,720 thought formed something and maybe i 1347 00:49:33,670 --> 00:49:31,440 manufactured my mind or such 1348 00:49:36,230 --> 00:49:33,680 but you know with all the the stuff that 1349 00:49:38,390 --> 00:49:36,240 subsequently happened with my sighting 1350 00:49:40,230 --> 00:49:38,400 i was pretty convinced that i did 1351 00:49:42,630 --> 00:49:40,240 definitely see something 1352 00:49:44,150 --> 00:49:42,640 but you know as years gone by and i've 1353 00:49:47,270 --> 00:49:44,160 talked to people 1354 00:49:49,430 --> 00:49:47,280 you know it it it's it's pretty clear 1355 00:49:52,309 --> 00:49:49,440 that 1356 00:49:54,309 --> 00:49:52,319 bigfoot in general does fall into two 1357 00:49:56,309 --> 00:49:54,319 categories i believe i believe there is 1358 00:49:59,430 --> 00:49:56,319 a flesh and blood 1359 00:50:02,470 --> 00:49:59,440 that is indigenous to degree and then 1360 00:50:04,630 --> 00:50:02,480 there's a flesh and blood that somehow 1361 00:50:07,670 --> 00:50:04,640 is able to possibly move between 1362 00:50:10,950 --> 00:50:07,680 realities or just 1363 00:50:13,109 --> 00:50:10,960 somehow is supernatural you know 1364 00:50:14,390 --> 00:50:13,119 because the evidence is there from what 1365 00:50:15,990 --> 00:50:14,400 you know and like you said 1366 00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:16,000 it's anecdotal most of it there's 1367 00:50:20,950 --> 00:50:17,760 nothing really 1368 00:50:23,510 --> 00:50:20,960 to prove that correct but 1369 00:50:24,150 --> 00:50:23,520 after all the hundreds and thousands of 1370 00:50:27,910 --> 00:50:24,160 tales 1371 00:50:29,910 --> 00:50:27,920 and stories and such it's pretty 1372 00:50:30,309 --> 00:50:29,920 conclusive that there's something out 1373 00:50:33,910 --> 00:50:30,319 there 1374 00:50:38,230 --> 00:50:33,920 that we really don't understand 1375 00:50:38,240 --> 00:50:42,230 you just don't know if if it's 1376 00:50:45,910 --> 00:50:44,470 some people say mass delusions or 1377 00:50:48,230 --> 00:50:45,920 hallucinations even 1378 00:50:50,150 --> 00:50:48,240 and but there's more to it than that 1379 00:50:52,870 --> 00:50:50,160 because there's individuals that have 1380 00:50:53,990 --> 00:50:52,880 completely unique experiences but 1381 00:50:56,069 --> 00:50:54,000 there's these features these 1382 00:50:58,069 --> 00:50:56,079 core features that are common and you 1383 00:50:59,750 --> 00:50:58,079 know you start getting into archetypes 1384 00:51:01,829 --> 00:50:59,760 and you're wondering you know how much 1385 00:51:03,910 --> 00:51:01,839 is locked up in our dna and maybe we're 1386 00:51:05,910 --> 00:51:03,920 seeing something from the past or 1387 00:51:07,270 --> 00:51:05,920 that's you know whatever i mean there's 1388 00:51:09,349 --> 00:51:07,280 just so many 1389 00:51:11,510 --> 00:51:09,359 hypotheses out there about what this 1390 00:51:12,230 --> 00:51:11,520 could be especially when you start going 1391 00:51:15,349 --> 00:51:12,240 into 1392 00:51:18,549 --> 00:51:15,359 flesh and blood versus paranormal 1393 00:51:21,589 --> 00:51:18,559 or you know is it alien or 1394 00:51:23,190 --> 00:51:21,599 or is it a pet of the aliens or is it an 1395 00:51:26,230 --> 00:51:23,200 interdimensional being 1396 00:51:26,950 --> 00:51:26,240 or you know are they creating portals do 1397 00:51:29,589 --> 00:51:26,960 they have 1398 00:51:30,870 --> 00:51:29,599 science and scientific you know 1399 00:51:33,750 --> 00:51:30,880 technology 1400 00:51:34,390 --> 00:51:33,760 beyond ours we just don't know it seems 1401 00:51:37,589 --> 00:51:34,400 odd 1402 00:51:37,910 --> 00:51:37,599 that you know it's it's not like they 1403 00:51:44,069 --> 00:51:37,920 look 1404 00:51:45,589 --> 00:51:44,079 a hominid you know or an ape-like with a 1405 00:51:47,670 --> 00:51:45,599 lot of ape-like features 1406 00:51:50,150 --> 00:51:47,680 and you know there's some hominids or 1407 00:51:53,109 --> 00:51:50,160 hominins even that have um 1408 00:51:56,069 --> 00:51:53,119 ape-like features the um the the the 1409 00:51:58,549 --> 00:51:56,079

homo sapiens you know 1419 00:52:21,750 --> 00:52:20,559 um up until about 24 to 28 000 years ago 1420 00:52:24,950 --> 00:52:21,760 when they died off 1421 00:52:27,910 --> 00:52:24,960 they have

1442 00:53:08,470 --> 00:53:06,480 you look at the evidence 1443 00:53:10,069 --> 00:53:08,480 um yeah these things that people are 1444 00:53:12,390 --> 00:53:10,079 saying are not neanderthals they may 1445 00:53:15,109 --> 00:53:12,400 look like and they're thought like 1446 00:53:16,790 --> 00:53:15,119 uh you know are somewhat human but they 1447 00:53:19,190 --> 00:53:16,800 are not human and they are not 1448 00:53:20,150 --> 00:53:19,200 neanderthal they're something completely 1449 00:53:21,829 --> 00:53:20,160 different 1450 00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:21,839 yeah they are you know they have a lot 1451 00:53:26,390 --> 00:53:23,680 more ape-like features too 1452 00:53:28,309 --> 00:53:26,400 yeah you know i i the one thing i really 1453 00:53:31,349 --> 00:53:28,319 found fascinating about your book was 1454 00:53:33,270 --> 00:53:31,359 your belief studies um 1455 00:53:35,270 --> 00:53:33,280 you know the demographics you used and 1456 00:53:39,589 --> 00:53:35,280 it's intense i mean it's 1457 00:53:41,910 --> 00:53:39,599 it's extensive as well i mean it's uh 1458 00:53:44,150 --> 00:53:41,920 it's something you don't see too often 1459 00:53:47,030 --> 00:53:44,160 in a book about bigfoot 1460 00:53:49,109 --> 00:53:47,040 yeah and my my goal was to study the 1461 00:53:49,910 --> 00:53:49,119 believers in bigfoot rather than bigfoot 1462 00:53:53,030 --> 00:53:49,920 itself 1463 00:53:53,430 --> 00:53:53,040 yeah yeah yeah and that that's unusual 1464 00:53:56,950 --> 00:53:53,440 but 1465 00:54:00,390 --> 00:53:56,960 it it's it's profound i mean 1466 00:54:02,230 --> 00:54:00,400 i mean the the range of uh answers that 1467 00:54:04,069 --> 00:54:02,240 you received 1468 00:54:07,190 --> 00:54:04,079 i mean what did you get out of it what 1469 00:54:10,230 --> 00:54:07,200 did you discover by doing that 1470 00:54:13,829 --> 00:54:10,240 wow you know that there is a whole gamut 1471 00:54:16,870 --> 00:54:13,839 of information that people believe 1472 00:54:19,349 --> 00:54:16,880 things that just don't mesh together 1473 00:54:21,430 --> 00:54:19,359 some are absolute believers in you know 1474 00:54:23,829 --> 00:54:21,440 you got the disbelieving skeptics 1475 00:54:25,589 --> 00:54:23,839 and say you know they they call 1476 00:54:27,670 --> 00:54:25,599 themselves bigfoot researchers 1477 00:54:29,109 --> 00:54:27,680 um but they don't believe in bigfoot at 1478 00:54:31,750 --> 00:54:29,119 all and i i 1479 00:54:32,390 --> 00:54:31,760 that it's perplexing to me but why they 1480 00:54:34,790 --> 00:54:32,400 keep going 1481 00:54:36,150 --> 00:54:34,800 except maybe to try to disprove it and 1482 00:54:37,190 --> 00:54:36,160 you know there's a certain 1483 00:54:39,109 --> 00:54:37,200 to a certain degree when you're 1484 00:54:40,789 --> 00:54:39,119 skeptical you're supposed to falsify 1485 00:54:41,910 --> 00:54:40,799 information but not to the point where 1486 00:54:43,670 --> 00:54:41,920 your belief 1487 00:54:45,829 --> 00:54:43,680 uh or disbelief which is a form of 1488 00:54:48,870 --> 00:54:45,839 belief um overrides 1489 00:54:51,430 --> 00:54:48,880 uh logic or evidence and um 1490 00:54:53,910 --> 00:54:51,440 anyway the the there's you know there 1491 00:54:55,990 --> 00:54:53,920 was 23 bigfoot researchers that i did a 1492 00:54:59,510 --> 00:54:56,000 semi-structured survey with 1493 00:55:01,990 --> 00:54:59,520 um you know and and they i asked them 1494 00:55:02,549 --> 00:55:02,000 seven questions you know all the same 1495 00:55:05,990 --> 00:55:02,559 questions 1496 00:55:08,309 --> 00:55:06,000 open-ended for the most part and uh 1497 00:55:10,230 --> 00:55:08,319 it was their answers were fascinating 1498 00:55:11,349 --> 00:55:10,240 and then i analyzed their cosmologies 1499 00:55:13,750 --> 00:55:11,359 the things that they 1500 00:55:15,109 --> 00:55:13,760 probably believe when it comes to the 1501 00:55:17,430 --> 00:55:15,119 world the universe 1502 00:55:19,190 --> 00:55:17,440 you know and what it what is the world 1503 00:55:20,710 --> 00:55:19,200 how was it made how did we get here and 1504 00:55:22,630 --> 00:55:20,720 what is our place in it 1505 00:55:24,390 --> 00:55:22,640 you know that's our cosmology we all 1506 00:55:27,589 --> 00:55:24,400 have a cosmology whether it's 1507 00:55:29,670 --> 00:55:27,599 science or religion or whatever 1508 00:55:31,270 --> 00:55:29,680 of how everything was made but i go into 1509 00:55:33,030 --> 00:55:31,280 those and i go to the native and 1510 00:55:36,549 --> 00:55:33,040 historical accounts 1511 00:55:40,309 --> 00:55:36,559 and lots of surveys on facebook 1512 00:55:42,069 --> 00:55:40,319 and a 300 person bigfoot believers in 1513 00:55:43,670 --> 00:55:42,079 particular survey 1514 00:55:46,150 --> 00:55:43,680 um you know asking people their 1515 00:55:48,150 --> 00:55:46,160 political backgrounds and their religion 1516 00:55:50,069 --> 00:55:48,160 and i just there were patterns that i 1517 00:55:52,150 --> 00:55:50,079 had seen in the field 1518 00:55:53,589 --> 00:55:52,160 and talking to people and i just wanted 1519 00:55:55,670 --> 00:55:53,599 to see if that showed up 1520 00:55:57,829 --> 00:55:55,680 again in an official survey of just 1521 00:56:00,150 --> 00:55:57,839 bigfoot believers and sure enough 1522 00:56:01,030 --> 00:56:00,160 i found that pattern and i talked about 1523 00:56:04,710 --> 00:56:01,040 that in the book 1524 00:56:08,230 --> 00:56:04,720 yeah yeah it's an interesting study 1525 00:56:11,190 --> 00:56:08,240 i mean it's it's it's really detailed 1526 00:56:12,870 --> 00:56:11,200 and uh i i just i just found it 1527 00:56:17,750 --> 00:56:12,880
