Starting point is 00:00:00 I tell myself, it's not about comparing. But then I start wondering, what can they lift? Are they adding more weight to their barbell than I am? And suddenly, I'm not training. Then I realize my journey is not theirs. I've earned every step. So I smile. My smile is the shape resilience takes to keep me moving.

In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring you first-hand encounters from people who say they've seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to quiet farms and crowded highways, the stories come from everywhere. and each one leaves us with more questions than answers. These are the voices of the people who've lived it. So settle in because today you'll hear another account
Starting point is 00:01:42 that just might change the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us. Hey, how's it going? Good, how are you? Good, good. I saw you wanting to come up. What brings you up today? Okay, well, I guess I'll...
Starting point is 00:01:56 Ready to tell my little bit of a story. That's all right. Okay. Yeah, sure. All right, so it happened in upstate New York and the Catskills in May of 2007. I'm on the fire department, and we'd gotten a call late at night for a MVA involving a pedestrian. And the location of the accident was kind of suspicious because it's out in the middle of nowhere, so it was kind of odd that somebody had been struck by a vehicle.
Starting point is 00:02:27 So me and four other guys on the engine go up to the scene and we get there and there's two state troopers and our chief. And as we roll by the car, we can see that there's quite a bit of image to it, but we don't see anybody lying next to the car. So we get out and we go up and we're tending to the car, making sure nothing's on fire and everything's okay with the car and the patient. and I can hear it was a woman was telling the state trooper that she hit a man and what she thought was like a gilly suit. And I guess the troopers weren't taking her too seriously.
Starting point is 00:03:07 They were trying to convince her that she hit a bear and she was quite adamant that she had hit a person. So just to make sure they wanted to send a few of us out into the woods to kind of go look and see if we could find anything, well as we were getting together they ended up bringing in some search dogs from a couple counties over and when you go out and do a search and rescue they like to get all the searchers together and the dogs will actually come around and sniff you and they'll pick up your scent so when you're out in the woods together they won't pick you up and start you know come look for you
Starting point is 00:03:48 So we were all standing there getting sniffed by these dogs And they started to take the dogs up to the car to get the son off the car And they got 30 feet from that car And their hair started to stand up They start their tails tucked And they started to pull back towards the trucks To get back in their crates They just would not get by whatever
Starting point is 00:04:11 The smell was on this car Well the state troopers wanted to call it a night but my chief, you know, because this woman was so adamant that it was a person, still wanted to send some guys out. And one of the guys on the crew with me, he refused to go out. So there was three of us that actually went out. It's a small town. There's not very many of us. So we go out into the woods and it was real thick.
Starting point is 00:04:39 This area is real thick woods and just briar patch everywhere and it's real tough to get through. we get about an hour out into the woods. And all of a sudden we see this thing and it looks like it's leaning on a tree, like with its arm up and its head resting on its arm leaning on a tree. And I shout to it. I say, you know, we're here to help you. I say, you know, where we're from and we take another towards it. And as I'm looking at it, I'm about 5'7.
Starting point is 00:05:13 I'm pretty short. And it looked about my height. as we took another step towards it and had our flashlights on it, the frigging thing stood up. And it was over, it was over seven feet tall. It wasn't enormous, enormous, but it was, it was big. We all just kind of froze and we got our flashlights on it and it kind of turned and looked at us. And you could see just the, it wasn't like a scary. It wasn't a scary thing.
Starting point is 00:05:45 But you could see the pain in its eyes and it had brown eyes. It didn't have yellow or red glowing eyes. It had brown eyes just like, just like I do. We just kind of frozen were sitting there looking at it. And I noticed that its right leg looked wet. It was all, you know, it's all covered in hair and like madded down. So I'm thinking it must have been when it got hit, it was bleeding. But we never picked up a blood trail.
Starting point is 00:06:08 So I don't know if the hair was soaking up the blood or what. But it just kind of, whatever this thing was, it just kind of looked. scared and confused. So we're just sitting there staring at it, and it seems like an eternity, but it was probably seconds. To the left of us, we hear this whooping sound. And then right after, there was three whoops, and after the first one, it sounded like something banging up against the tree to our right.
Starting point is 00:06:37 So as the other two guys were with me, they, they moved their flashlights into the direction of where that bangin's coming from. And this thing that's in front of us starts to walk, kind of limp away to the left. And it just disappeared within feet. It was gone. We didn't chase after it or nothing like that. We just kind of radioed back to our chief that we couldn't find anything. They called off the search, and we came out, and that was that.
Starting point is 00:07:06 And we just sort of went about our life after that. But that's what happened to us. Holy mackerel okay so you never you never told you chief or anyone else about what you saw we didn't tell that man this had this was back in 2006 or 2007 we never told us a soul about it we just went about life like nothing ever happened wow is this one of the first times you've ever shared what you saw that day um i told my girlfriend a while back about it but other than that you know i've never never told family members. I've never told anybody else at the firehouse. We just, we all, you know, we were young and we've all grown up. So we just never really ever talked about it
Starting point is 00:07:55 again. Just kind of put it away and moved on. But yeah, I can, I can assure you anybody that doesn't believe I can assure you they're out there. And I don't think there's anything to be scared of. You know, I don't think it's anything to be scared of. I'm sure there's, you know, just like people, there's a few of them that are a-holes or whatever, but for the most part, I think they're just trying to exist. When you say it disappeared, does that mean that it actually disappeared
Starting point is 00:08:24 or just after it walked a bit, you didn't see it anymore? No, no, it's so, it was so thin there, you know, it just kind of. Okay, yep, yep, yeah, yeah. Not, no, none of that, none of that alternate universe kind of crap. No, this is a real thing that just lives them,
Starting point is 00:08:42 In my opinion. Have you seen anything else that looks like what you saw that day? No, I've never seen anything like that before in my life. Well, yeah, that film there from where is it out in California there? From like, what was it, the 50s or 60s? Yep, the Patterson Gimeland film. The what? That Anderson Gimlin film from the late 60s.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Yeah, we're just walking on the creek bed there. Yep. It was like the face, the features of it with that little like a, the, the cone to it. If that were, if that thing was to be an adult, I would say this thing was like maybe like a teenager. Do you know what I'm trying to say? It was more like lean, kind of, I would say it was probably a male. It looked more, more lean, like not bubbly, I guess, and curved like what you see on the phone. but the face features and like the head and how the shoulders like sit up were like when it turned
Starting point is 00:09:45 it didn't turn its neck it turned its body kind of like at the hip to look at us if that makes any sense whatsoever to nobody no it absolutely makes sense to me yeah this is a this is an intense one man wow thank you for sharing this is this one where Yeah, I do have a Bigfoot podcast. Is it okay to use the audio from this on the podcast, or would you rather not have that? Yeah, that's fine. I don't think I've given, like I said, I know it sounds weird, but I don't think I've said anything that anybody could really, other than upstate New York and the Catskills. Okay, so you are saying that I can use the audio then?
Starting point is 00:10:34 Yeah, yeah, that's fine. Okay. Perfect. Well, I appreciate you coming up. If you ever run into anything else, you're welcome to reach out. My email is Bigfoot Society, gmail.com, but I appreciate you sharing what you saw that day. Hey, thank you. That was absolutely intense. That's why I do these lives, because you get accounts like that for some reason on this platform.
Starting point is 00:11:05 It's absolutely intense. Hey, Martina. How are you? Hi. I'm doing it. Great. Awesome. Are you coming up to share a Bigfoot experience you had?
Starting point is 00:11:15 I am. I had a Bigfoot experience in, let's see, we're in August, in June of this year. And I had never had a Bigfoot experience. I am Native American. So I believe in Bigfoot. I've never had an encounter, but I've always. heard stories. I was in northern Idaho at the time. I'm currently in Washington State, and it's very dense forest where I was. The apartment that I was, they wouldn't allow smoking,
Starting point is 00:11:58 so I had to walk a little bit off of the property into the woods to have a cigarette. I had stayed up late that night, probably midnight, and I got into, a slight argument with my partner at the time, so I needed a cigarette. I start walking out into the woods and I hear this sound. And it wasn't a scream. It wasn't a yell. It was almost like a bellowing. But it rocked me to my core. I have never. heard a sound like that. I immediately, somewhere in my brain, I knew who and what it was.
Starting point is 00:12:55 And because of the way I was raised, I have a lot of respect for, and I don't even care to call him Bigfoot. But I immediately, turned around and I felt like he could be near me in an instant, even though his voice was slightly distant. I felt as if he could, he sensed my presence. I just was, I still think about it. I mean, that's how intense it was. I walked very very much. I walked very. very fast back to the apartment and I asked my boyfriend at the time,
Starting point is 00:13:48 are you going to come and have a cigarette with me? And he thought that I was upset about our disagreement that we had. And I didn't tell him what I had heard. And he's like, yes, I'll come with you. So he gets up and puts on his shoes and we walk out together and he hears it. he says to me, stop, do you hear this? And I said, yes. I said, that's why I came back to get you.
Starting point is 00:14:18 And he said, I thought you were upset. He said, because when you walked in the door, he said, you were as white as your coat. I was wearing a white coat because it was chilly. We were in the mountains. But I feel forever changed because of that experience. We stood out there. I smoked my cigarette. and he must have yelled, I don't know how many minutes.
Starting point is 00:14:45 And it was just, even talking about it now, I still get chills. And that's just something that I wanted to share. I felt very humbled by the experience, very grateful, and very small. And it's just my story that I wanted to share. that I wanted to share. Thank you for sharing that. Is it similar to things that you'll hear in like TV shows about Bigfoot? Or was this completely different?
Starting point is 00:15:16 Well, after my boyfriend at the time, my ex, he heard it and we immediately went to YouTube. And he was like, does it sound like this? And they were the sightings of Bigfoot. And it was pretty much the exact same as reputable. bigfoot sightings. And I don't know much about, you know, the people that have studied Bigfoot, but since this encounter,
Starting point is 00:15:45 I know of one guy. I think he was out of California or Nevada somewhere down south. It was one of his recordings, and it was exactly on. What a cool thing to experience, especially, I mean, Northern Idaho is such a active area. And just thank you for,
Starting point is 00:16:08 for coming up. I do have a Bigfoot podcast. Would it be okay if I use this audio for that podcast? Absolutely. Okay. Okay. Thank you so much for coming up, Martina. Not a problem. Have a great day. You too. Hey, Green, how are you?
Starting point is 00:16:24 Hi, how are you? Doing great. Are you coming up to share a Bigfoot experience you had? Yes, I am. My family thinks I'm crazy. But they think my dad was crazy too. My dad grew up on a farm in Mommy, Ohio, long, long time ago.
Starting point is 00:16:44 He's passed away 20 years now. But he told me when he was a kid around 10 and 11 years old, there was 13 kids in his family, 13 siblings. And he said that he had an encounter with a thing he backed in and called it Bigfoot, you know, later on in life. because he didn't know what it was. But he used to bring, it wasn't aggressive towards him. He had seen it up close and it would interact with him, you know. So he would bring fruit and leave it. And it was a thing.
Starting point is 00:17:26 So he would go on the weekends and he would walk out to the pastor. This is Matt Rogers from Los Culture Reistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen-Yang.

Starting point is 00:20:20 And he said over the years, he's probably had 10 encounters with Bigfoot. And he told me this. And I'm like, so Bigfoot isn't aggressive. of, he didn't hurt you, didn't try. He's like, no, he sat there. He was just jibber-jabbering. He couldn't understand him. He said, but it was like they were having a conversation,
Starting point is 00:20:43 and he said, I could understand him even though I couldn't understand him. It's like he had, you know, formed a friendship with Bigfoot, you know. So that was pretty cool, and my dad had told me that story, because I was always interested in Bigfoot. Even as a child, I was like, oh, my God, I want to see Bigfoot. I want to, you know, I want to meet Bigfoot. People called me crazy. There's no Bigfoot, whatever.
Starting point is 00:21:12 I go in Louisiana. And in Louisiana, they have different names for it, the Rougaroo, you know, different names for Bigfoot there. And I had an experience with some friends late at night. we would go out on our four-wheelers or three-wheelers back then and into the woods and we would hear these noises in these knocks and I said oh that's bigfoot that's big foot and there's about six of us and we all heard it and they're like oh there's no big foot there's no big foot and sure enough we were shining our flashlights and we seen them all of us And I was just amazed.
Starting point is 00:21:58 I wasn't scared. I was just sitting, you know, sitting there on the bike. And I'm thinking, oh, God, this big foot, they all took off and left me. And I'm just sitting there. And I'm not scared. Right. And it wasn't aggressive, didn't try to approach me or anything. Finally, I laughed.
Starting point is 00:22:15 But yeah, that was my bigfoot story and my dad's as well. So I just, you know, I'm not afraid. and I hope to see them again someday. I don't live in the country anymore, but I live more like in the city. Sure, sure. Well, thank you for sharing that. The place in Louisiana,
Starting point is 00:22:39 are you able to share the general area that happened? Yeah, it happened in Sorrento. And Sorrento, kind of like, like, Secession Parish in the woods. Serento back then was not. not as grown and populated like it is now. There's a lot of farmland and a lot of wilderness. So, yeah, so it was in Sorrento.
Starting point is 00:23:09 What year was that, what would you say? That would have been in the early, it would have been about 85 that it happened. Sure. Okay. Okay. Gotcha. Is your father still with us? No, my father passed away 20 years ago. Gotcha. Yeah. And he told these stories to my kids, you know.
Starting point is 00:23:38 My three younger kids, they were kids then, and he would sit and tell him stories about Bigfoot and the stories about the war because my dad was in the war. He was in the Navy and the Army. And, you know, it was just one of those things that he connected with my kids with. So my kids, they, they believed in grandpa. They believed my dad. My dad wasn't one to tell stories. It was not one to make up stuff. He was not that.
Starting point is 00:24:10 He was a street shooter. He told it like it is. And that's that. He never would have fabricated stories. I believed them growing up. And, you know, that's. that he never would have fabricated his stories. I believed them growing up and, you know, yeah, my kids believed them and they were so curious they wanted him to take him out
Starting point is 00:24:36 and, you know, the women. And they were so curious. They wanted him to take them out into, you know, the woods to see if they could experience it. And I wouldn't let my kids go. you know, I wouldn't. They were young. They were, you know, 10. You know, they weren't eight and seven. So I didn't really want them out in the woods with their grandpa at that time. Yeah, no, I totally understand that.
Starting point is 00:25:10 The area that your father was having things happen in Ohio, did you say it was Montville? No, Mommy, Ohio. How do you spell that? mom me. I just, I don't even know. And they, oh, I figured it out. Okay, I got it.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Yeah. Oh, okay, so the Northwest Corner, yeah? Yeah, and it, back then, when he was growing up, it was all, because they were farmers. You know, they had land and they farmed. And they had lots of land out there. So, you know, he said, like his siblings may have experienced it, too, but he was one of one of the kids that just had no fear, he would go out and he wasn't, he wasn't afraid of being in the woods. He was comfortable there. That was his, his, you know, place where he found just serenity.
Starting point is 00:26:07 He just felt so at home. And I thought it was just really cool that my dad would, you know, told me that. And now he would gift them. He would feed the big foot that would talk to him or, or, they would communicate. And it was weird because my dad said it was like he didn't understand him, but he did. It was like a mental thing. It was like almost like a telepathy. Like he could understand him even though he couldn't. It was just gibberish that Bigwood was.
Starting point is 00:26:38 And they were sitting on the ground like across from each other. Like it was so cool that my dad had that experience, you know. So how far back, what years would he be experienced that in the mommy area, do you think? Well, that one have been, okay, so my dad, he died at 67 years old, 20 years ago. So I don't really remember. I don't know the year to the math. He would have been about 10 or 11, 12 years old, somewhere around there. He was preteen when he had that happened.
Starting point is 00:27:21 and, you know, he's seen them, like, quite a few times, he said. He would go out. Yeah. Like 50s, 60s, maybe, you know. Yeah, okay. Did he ever write any, his, did he keep a journal of what he experienced? No, no. When he passed away, we went through all his things,
Starting point is 00:27:42 and we never found a journal for anything. Yeah. That would have been told as he did, you know, because I would have had, would have had that to have his memory. And he was just, but my dad, he was, he was one of the best guys. You would have known, like, everybody loved him, you know. He was very highly respected. And he was, it's just a really good guy.
Starting point is 00:28:12 You know, a really good guy. And I miss him. It is really cool that you're able to, you know, honor his memory by sharing. some of his stories and I appreciate you coming up and sharing that and then sharing what you experienced down Louisiana yourself. Is this a conversation that is off record or would I be able to use the audio from it for my Bigfoot podcast I have? You can use it. Absolutely. Yeah. He's missed and he really is. You know, and yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, yeah, you can, absolutely use it.
Starting point is 00:28:53 There's people in my family, they know, they think I'm crazy. You know, my older siblings, they heard the same stories, obviously, but I don't know. They just kind of like, oh, yeah, yeah, whatever. I guess until you have your own experience, you're not really going to believe it. Or there are some people out there just want to stick their head in the sand and not believe it. because, but I look at it just why, you know, why, why couldn't it be true? I tell them, you know, you think that we're only the only species here on Earth that has, maybe has not been discovered yet.
Starting point is 00:29:36 Right, exactly. He's not there and he's not real. And I do believe that we can, it's a spiritual thing. I believe that they're interdimensional. beings. That's just my thoughts. You know, that's why some people say they've never experienced it, and some people say they have, you know? Absolutely. And I really believe that, I mean, if you have an encounter with Bigfoot, it was meant for you to have that encounter. Right. I don't know the senses, you know, that you believe or feel. I just,
Starting point is 00:30:16 believe that if you have an encounter it was meant to. I don't believe that it's an aggressive, you know, species. I believe that it can be if it's threatened, just like you. If someone, you know, comes in your home, like their home is the wilderness with a gun or whatever. Sorry if I'm not supposed to say that. But if you feel threatened, how are you going to act? You're going to defend yourself. Well, that's what I said. Yeah, exactly. Your intention has a ton to do with it. But yeah, I appreciate you coming up. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:30:53 I do have a few other individuals to check in with, but I appreciate you chatting today. No problem. Have a good day. You too. Good, good stuff. Hey, Marcus, how are you? Hey, I'm doing good.
Starting point is 00:31:07 How are you? Doing great. Are you coming up to share a Bigfoot experience you had? Oh, yeah. It's one that shook my world up probably over 20 years ago, and I haven't been back to the same spot since. So I live in the Appalachian Mountains. I live in a small town, and me and a buddy of mine, we always look for different places to fish that people didn't normally want to put in the effort to get there to fish. and we had this creek that flows through our town,
Starting point is 00:31:44 and if you follow it all the way through, it ends up into a huge lake here where I live. And he's like, well, let's walk the creek and, you know, see if we catch any trout or whatever, and it ends up over there, and we'll just fish over there in that cove. There's a big cove over there, but there's, I call them real, real steep hill.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Some of them you can't even climb there straight up. But so we walked. It takes about three or four hours to get there, just cutting through fields and working our way through brush and stuff. And then wading across the water to get to the other side. And we got to where we wanted to be and didn't see no boats, nothing. The NECD sign where people went back there. The grass was still standing up.
Starting point is 00:32:37 You know, everything was good. So we're like, hey, this, just it's a good place to catfish. You know, we're going to definitely, you know, stay here. So we built the fire. We started fishing. And it was it was the time of day to where you can still see color, but you could definitely still see bigger.
Starting point is 00:33:00 But long distance, you know, it was more of a duller color, if you will. So I put my fishing pole out and I put it in the whole, holder and he was to my right, the fire was in between us, a little bit behind of us. And I looked and down the way probably about, if I had to guess, because I'm a hunter, and I would say probably around 40 yards, give or take. And I seen this big thing that it was knelt down like it was squatted and it had its hands in the water. There was a little inlet there, and it was out on that inlet, and it was, it was messing in the water. You could see it moving its hands, and you can see the water, you know,
Starting point is 00:33:50 moving where it was moving his hands back and forth in the water. And I stood there a minute, you know, just trying to make sense because it was really hot that day. It was really hot. I think it was in July, to be honest with you, or August, but it was miserably hot. And I looked, and finally I said, I said, hey, man. And he said, yeah, I said, what is that up there? And he looked at me and I pointed up that way. And he looked and he stood there. We both stood there for a while and just looked at it because we couldn't, you know,
Starting point is 00:34:23 we knew what we were looking at, but we just, we just dumb found it with it, I suppose. And its body looked like, like the fur on its body look like a, almost like a long, shaggy. dog that had knots and and it was real long it was almost like the body had dreads but not dreads it just real mangy looking
Starting point is 00:34:52 unkept and it's chest plate and dreads and just real mangy looking unkept and it's chest plate and it was it was like a brownish color like a dark
Starting point is 00:35:08 dark brown not quite chocolate, but like a, it was just like a brownish color. Its chest plate was, I would say, a little bit lighter, but not as dark, but they were hard to see the difference, and it had a little hair on that. But its head, I'm trying to think what I could compare to top of its head to the bottom of its chin, because that's how far away. And me and my buddy, we've known each other for probably 30 years, and we would fish,
Starting point is 00:35:39 sometimes and side by side and not talk for like 30 minutes or more just because we're doing our thing. And I'm trying to find something that I can compare it with. So off the top of my head, I don't have a comparison. The only way I could compare it is from the top of the head to the bottom of the chin looked almost as big as that old movie back in the day called Harry. into Henderson's. Okay, yeah. Its head was that long and that big. It was huge, the head was.
Starting point is 00:36:17 And it started getting dark. And apparently we were in its face or it felt threatened or just didn't want us there. But so it got dark and we got nervous. And he's like, do you have your pu-poo? And I'm like, yeah, I always carry it when we come to the woods. This is Matt Rogers from Los Culture Reistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen-Yang.

Starting point is 00:39:34 I was too. and he's like let's let's build this fire up bigger you know and I'm like yeah I'm down for that and so we're standing there fishing and you would hear like a like knocking on a tree like somebody took a rock and smacked it up against a tree and then you would literally it sounded like trees being pushed over it just crashing uh twigs you to hear the and this is from one side of where the creek ran into the lake from one side it was a cove so from one side to the other was probably about 30 yards and when we first seen it it was to my right way on the other end about 40 45 yards 50 yards maybe and it sounded like like freaking trees being pushed over large branches were being snapped and then huge rocks started hitting the water and we knew there were one of them
Starting point is 00:40:38 sounded like a freaking Volkswagen. I'm not kidding. But you could hear them coming through the air and they would hit the water. And when they would hit the water, it would go boosh. And you could, you know it was heavy because you could hear the water
Starting point is 00:40:54 come back down on top of the water. You understand what I'm saying? Oh yeah. So the water would go up in the air with the splash and then come back down. and then ripples would go by because we had a small lantern and ripples would go by
Starting point is 00:41:09 and it would make the ends of our poles jump because we kept our fishing lines tight or any kind of bite but the ripples were so much from what was being thrown in the water it was making our fishing poles bounce as the ripples were going by and then that went on
Starting point is 00:41:27 for I would say a good 30 minutes we were actually contemplating like just leaving, but we had only walked in that way. We'd never walked out. We wasn't real sure where to go. So then the whole holler, that's what we call it out here in Virginia, the whole holler, the whole cold.
Starting point is 00:41:50 It smelled like the mustiest, raunchiest wet dog animal smell you can smell. And it just came all the way up through. there and you could smell it. And after a while, the smell went away, the sound stopped, nothing else was being thrown in water, but we stayed up online and the first
Starting point is 00:42:15 we decided, you know, hey, look, when he gets daylight, we're going to walk down there across from where that thing was at, because like I said, there was a little inland there. And so when it got daylight, we were thinking, well, you know, maybe it was just a stump
Starting point is 00:42:31 or a tree or something, or big rock or whatever. And so when we, when it got daylight enough to see, we walked all the way down or across from where it was. And there wasn't, there wasn't no rock, no tree, no stump or anything down there up close or from a distance standing in their own, in the same spots were that resembled that at all. So we packed up our stuff and we, we hiked out of there.
Starting point is 00:42:59 And I personally, I have not been back. That's incredible. So the amount of distance, you said, it's pretty much half a football field, I believe, is what we're looking at. Yeah, close to it. It couldn't have been over 50 yards. It was big enough we could see how big it was.
Starting point is 00:43:24 If I had to guess, a bit stood up, and as wide as its shoulders were, maybe seven, eight feet, and its shoulders were, heck they were just big it was just big that's all I can say it was it was big it stunk
Starting point is 00:43:43 it didn't like us being there it did everything it could during a night to drive us away and make us leave or whatever we stayed and I guess you know it just left us alone but it was quite the experience
Starting point is 00:43:58 you mentioned the length was similar to Harry and the hennersons but Yes. Did it look like that or did the face look like something? The face looked different. It didn't have like, to me, the Harry and the Henderson movies, he looked like almost like a monkey or like an eight. Facial features were hard to detail because it was starting to get dark, but it didn't have the same facial features. It had the hair on its head the same way it did on its body. its face looked kind of darkish.
Starting point is 00:44:34 So, you know, as far as like facial details, I couldn't tell you. It just, you know, I've seen a lot of things in my life living in the Appalachian Mountains that I can't explain. And when you go around and you tell certain people about it, like, man, let me tell you this story. They kind of look at you like, yeah, okay. But I actually did a podcast. Do you remember the show that come on? I think it was Discovery. They would go out and look for Bigfoot.
Starting point is 00:45:04 It was a big call. By finding Bigfoot? Yes. Yeah, Cliff and Bobo and those guys? Yeah, I did a podcast with Bobo and told my story. Okay, cool. Was it the Bigfoot and Beyond? It was, I know it was the dude with the long hair that always wears a hat.
Starting point is 00:45:25 It just like the hippie. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. So it was him. But I mean, I've seen a lot of things here in the mountains because I used to be a huge hunter. So I would like to get in the woods, you know, two or three hours before daylight. And I would come out of the woods like an hour or two after daylight because I was so far back in the woods. But this experience here has stuck with me my entire life, you know, over the last 20-some years. that I can still remember every single detail of it.
Starting point is 00:46:03 Absolutely. Can remind me of the year, approximately year for this again? See, I'm 47 in November, so I would say I was probably late, late 20s, maybe early, like 31 or so. I was late 20s or early 30s. So maybe like, we could say like 20 years ago or something like that. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So you are saying the Appalachian Mountains, not to push at all, but are you able to share at least the state this happened in?
Starting point is 00:46:45 It's in Virginia. Virginia, okay, cool. I live in the middle of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Okay. Yeah, perfect area. Absolutely. but also would I be able to use the audio for this or from this for my Bigfoot podcast I have? Yeah man sure.
Starting point is 00:47:04 I mean, I know I'm not the only one out there that's ever witnessed something like that. Oh, absolutely. The more people talk about it, you know, eventually someday somebody that's going to actually get footage of it. It may not be in our lifetime, but someone will actually get true footage of it at one point in time. It has to happen. I agree. I agree. I know they're stealthy, and I know they're good at hiding and stuff like that. But, I mean, everything slips up from time to time. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:47:36 Oh, that's true. That is true. Well, it is a pleasure chatting with you today. I appreciate you coming up and sharing what you saw down there in Virginia. I'm going to check in with a few other people, but thank you for coming up. Yeah, man. Thank you for having me. Hi there. Thanks for coming up. Did you have a big folk experience you wanted to share? Yeah. So I live in Jefferson. I've got a big old piece of property here. Texas? I'm sorry. You hear me? Yes. Did you say Jefferson, Texas? I'm sorry about that. Yeah, so I live in Jefferson, Texas, and I've seen a number of, you know, counters in my day.
Starting point is 00:48:17 And I want a big old piece of land out here. And, you know, I just think it's quite interesting, all the things I've seen here. And I've had some very close. encounters that I've submitted myself. And it's just very unusual that these people don't want to further investigate these type of sightings. Oh, absolutely. I mean, that area is very, very active. Who have you submitted your accounts to? So I've submitted, actually, a couple two out of this. So one in particular actually was the University of Texas.
Starting point is 00:48:48 It was a scholarly article that I submitted. And it was about the findings of the Bigfoot and actually. extraterrestrial animals. I know that sounds a little weird, but there was a big study done about the university. And I'd gone out there and I actually invited some of these individuals to come out to my land. I went about, you know, well, at one point it was 40. It's about almost 80 acres now out there in Jefferson. But it was, there was some initial response to the, you know, to the invite, if you will.
Starting point is 00:49:19 And some to come out. And from there, it was almost like the, you know, the interest had just died down. And once I'd showed them some interesting factual evidence, it just kind of went away. Any insight on that there? I mean, it may have been that, well, I guess the first question was, what kind of evidence did you show them?
Starting point is 00:49:47 Well, I showed them a number of things there. Sir, I'd show them some footprints. Not only had I photographed them, I'd taken that. a couple of these college students out, and I showed them some tracks that I believe to be, you know, of one of them. Moreover, there were some dead animals on my property with some unusual, very unusual, you know, marks on them, some deer in particular. There was a small animal, I believe, this is a few years back.
Starting point is 00:50:13 It was a skimmy as a rabbit. If I'm not mistaken, it was a rabbit or a fox. There were a couple of animals out there, but I, no, I brought them close to them. They'd looked at them initially, like I said, it. And from there, I tried to follow up and it kind of just, it just went away. That's too bad. It sounded like they had a really good chance to get involved with something. But would you be able to share maybe some of the experiences that you've had on your property, being them?
Starting point is 00:50:47 Yeah, absolutely. I mean, is there anything, I mean, to be honest, I don't want to take too much your time. but I mean, what encounters in particular? I mean, so it sounds like you've got a lot going on. Have you had actual visual sightings or up close things happen? Oh, absolutely. So like I said, I had about 40 acres, and it's expanded a bit, but I've been out there a couple times, and I remember one night in particular.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Me and my woman, my wife, are out there, and we'd seen this large, I don't want to say, a creature, but, you know, something coming at us and it almost looked like, you know, a moose or something, very large in size, but it was standing up. I went to check it out because my wife was very scared. And when I approached it, it felt like it came towards me for a minute. And then it kind of just backed off and vanished. And we further looked into it, you know, a couple hours later.
Starting point is 00:51:45 And we seen some tracks out there in the woods. Another time when my father was over, we'd been cooking. and we'd seen something again in the woods that came on to the open field on the property. And like I said, I invited them, you know, individuals from the University of Texas down there. They were actually doing some sort of a scarly investigation and nothing to just come of it.
Starting point is 00:52:11 I showed them some footprints, some of the animals in particular. I've been out there hunting and I'd seen some animals that had passed away and it wasn't a normal animal bot, you know what I'm saying? No, absolutely. Has it ever gotten to the point where you have felt and you felt threatened in any way, or has it been a peaceful back and forth? I mean, trust me, my wife's felt scared a number of times, you know, but I've always wanted to go investigate, you know. I don't think it would hurt me. I mean, then again, and I always been armed. But at the same time, unfortunately, I never got too close. You know, I mean, I think one time Batikar, I got about maybe 20, 30 feet from the, from the, from the. thing and, you know, I felt like we looked at each other and that was about it.
Starting point is 00:52:56 But, you know, never felt like a direct threat like they were going to come do something bad to us. Yeah, absolutely. So based on what you've seen on your property, how would you, how would you explain what you saw or what is, is Bigfoot more of maybe something that's ape like or human-like? I mean, man. It's supernatural, man. It's all I can say.
Starting point is 00:53:26 It's almost like ghosts in the woods. You know, it ain't no ghost, but it's just like a supernatural thing.

Starting point is 00:59:03 You too, sir. Thank you. Hey, Boston. How are you? Hey. Hey, are you coming up to share a Bigfoot experience you've had? Oh my gosh, yes. Okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Some people think I'm crazy. I'm a hairdresser. I've told the story so many times. Nice. But I was 21 and I'm now 47. So where does that take us to the year 2000? Yeah, 1999. I was living in Washington State.
Starting point is 00:59:32 Nice. It was a Wednesday night, early Thursday morning right before Thanksgiving, you know, when everybody goes out on a Wednesday night. Yep. And my girlfriend and I were talking about she's Native American and her, she had a baby born that died. And she's like, you know what, I really want to go see the grave. And we're at this diner.
Starting point is 00:59:57 We've been drinking all night. And I know this sounds so terrible, right? Like, anyway, we sober up. We eat breakfast really early in the morning and we're driving. But we didn't ask her tribe for permission to be on tribal land, nor did we ask to go to the graveyard or anything like that. But we're talking about how clear it was at night and how clear like you could see every detail in the trees, everything.
Starting point is 01:00:26 And we're wide awake at this point, and we decide that we're not going to go to the graveyard. We're going to take the first morning ferry back to, like, a hotel, and then go to the graveyard in the morning when there's light out, and we'll, you know, go from there. So right as the water met the land, she's driving a truck and I'm in the passenger seat and I'm looking out her window and I go, Crystal, drive. And I put my hand on her knee and I pushed.
Starting point is 01:01:00 So she'd hit the gas because standing on the side of the road, I kid you not, had to have been Bigfoot. It just had to have been at least nine feet tall, hairy. We didn't hear a sound. But you could see. You could see the details in his fur. you could see his eyes. You could see everything. And that's before Google. That's before, you know, you could just pull up pictures on the internet of what people see. And she's like, was that Bigfoot? I said, I didn't want to say that because I don't want you to think I'm crazy. And she goes,
Starting point is 01:01:37 we can't tell anyone we were here in my tribe. If you see Bigfoot, we've got to do this, this, this, and this. And, you know, I'm not supposed to be here. We just got to go home. So anyway, I have looked at pictures of bears standing up. I have looked at pictures of cougars standing on their hind legs. I have looked at pictures of every wild animal I can think of that would live in the forests of Washington State. And nothing looks like what we saw. And the weird thing is, is the next day on that same ferry road
Starting point is 01:02:15 waiting for the first morning ferry, which is what we were trying to catch. Her uncle had a massive heart attack with unexplained prince on his window. Whoa. We never told her tribe, so she never told. Oh, man. Isn't that crazy? That's really, really intense.
Starting point is 01:02:39 When I went home for my 20th year reunion, I ran into her. And I'm like, did you ever tell anybody? She goes, hell, no, I never told any. buddy. She's like, sherry, my tribe takes that very seriously. And I'm like, oh my goodness. That's really, really intense. I know you're just saying Washington. I almost want to guess where it is. But I understand if we want to keep it at Washington, that's cool too. Well, so we are from Spokane. Okay. And my, I just remember it being the Keller Ferry Road. I don't remember what tribal land that was on. Oh, so it was over by Spokane,
Starting point is 01:03:24 you're saying? Yes. Oh, wow. I was way off. I was guessing Lummi Reservation. Well, that's cool. Nice. Yeah, and I, I'm a pretty normal, sane person. I feel like I could pass a lie detector test. Like, I know what I saw was not anything that is quote unquote normal. I know what I saw was very unique. It still makes my heartbeat really fast when I talk about it. Like, yeah, he could have jumped in the back of our truck. Yeah, you could have done, I mean, way worse than that. Absolutely. Right. Do you remember any details about what you saw? Specifically, were you able to look at the face, see anything there? So I would say
Starting point is 01:04:13 I'm not an artist, right? But like, I would say his dimensions were similar to like, you know, when you see pictures of humans that are giants, so proportionate. Like, his head wasn't too big for his body,
Starting point is 01:04:29 but he had to have been at least nine feet tall. At least. Gotcha. A fur, dark fur. dark fur, not light. There was no light patches of fur anywhere. His eyes were spaced like what you see, pictures of Bigfoot.
Starting point is 01:04:54 Almost, almost like human spacing, but he was just bigger. He was just bigger. And she and I talked about it. I was like, you know, is it possible that someone in tribal land is like dressing up to scare people off? Is it possible, you know? and she goes, Sherry, that was not a person. That was not a person. That was not a person.
Starting point is 01:05:16 And I knew it, you know, but you don't like to believe that you're seeing something that most people don't see. You know, people look at you like you're crazy. Oh, absolutely. Yeah. I'm going to guess that was probably, I wonder if that's a Spokane reservation. I think that's the closest. Probably. Probably.
Starting point is 01:05:33 How, do you remember how long the fur or the hair was? So I'm a hairdresser. I would say the hair was probably three to four inches long. Okay. Because in the night, like, we could see details in the branches. If I was an artist, I could draw it, but I'm not an artist. Half of his fur looked wet like he'd been in the water, you know, from about his upper thighs down. Okay.
Starting point is 01:06:06 It was kind of dripping with water. I mean, it was seriously right where the water met the land is right where he was standing. I didn't see his feet because we were in a truck. But like, no hunchback or anything like that, broad shoulders, long arms, proportionate hands, he looked like he had five fingers. Like I didn't see him wave or anything. I just, all I saw him do is turn his head. head as we drove by. He was just standing there and turned his head as we drove by.
Starting point is 01:06:45 When he did that, did he have to turn the upper part of his body or just his head? Just his head. That's very interesting. Okay. Just his head. No other part of his body moved. Just his head. Unlike the picture, the picture you have up right now, he has. He has. had more of a neck than the picture that you have up. He had more of a neck. Like, I don't really see that guy's neck in your picture that you have up. Did you see the nose at all? I saw the nose.
Starting point is 01:07:27 Let me think about the detail. His nose, it almost looks shiny, but I don't know if it's because it was wet or if it was hairless. I'm not sure. like if he'd been eating something. Does that make sense? Yeah. Definitely. But like his eyes were bright.
Starting point is 01:07:55 What color were there? I didn't really see a color because again, it was, it was dark, but you could see detail. You know how you can see like a cat's eye at night? Right. And it's reflective. They were big enough that you could see. you know that glow so I imagine he has pupils like we do I imagine back and forth some people say that some people don't it's really interesting did you notice any ears
Starting point is 01:08:28 a glow okay sorry sorry did you see any ears at all absolutely he was he was he was he was almost human like that's the thing but he was so big there's no way it could have been a human. He was like a big, hairy, naked, giant, but human-like. It's such an interesting. Yeah, I would say, I would say, I would say that we definitely saw ears. Okay. Like, they weren't covered in woolly hair or anything like that. Because he had, he had a prominent neck. I watched it turn when he looked at us in the truck. How about this? How long down its side did its arm and go?
Starting point is 01:09:16 Uh-huh. His fingertips look like they went past his mid-thigh. Okay. This is really interesting. Because in some ways, it matches up, but in some ways it's very unique. You know what I mean? Well, it was a very unique experience.
Starting point is 01:09:39 Yeah. Absolutely. I'm just thinking out loud because I've talked to hundreds and hundreds of people over the last few years. But yeah, this is super unique. Thank you so much for sharing it. I really appreciate you coming up and sharing it. Yeah. So like I've talked to some people and they think that Bigfoot could be like a time traveler.

Starting point is 01:14:12 That's the point in 1980. Okay. I was 12 years old, okay? Okay. I was, one day I was shooting body rockets, you know, good old-fashioned bottle rockets. Yep. In the backyard,
Starting point is 01:14:27 shooting them out there. All of a sudden, I shooting them out. All of a sudden, my mom came out of the back, out of the porch, 21, 121, a chest of Ohio. And she told me, she's screaming, get me back in the house now.
Starting point is 01:14:45 She's seen this figure in the background swinging back and forth, back and forth, all right? This huge creature she went back and forth. So I ran back in the house like she told me to. She used a bunch,
Starting point is 01:14:59 she used the F word to get me back in the house. So I got back in the house. The house, when I got back in the house, the house smelled like, I don't know what a smell like a rotten dog, rotten flesh, even our dogs cowered in the corner. She looked into the outside. She did this huge creature was black, seven foot, eight feet tall, muscular. This is that, Chesaful, Ohio, 121. then let's skip a couple days later me and my cousins were outside in our backyard playing right in the same place
Starting point is 01:15:41 playing high-go seat at night okay well being a short fat kid and being slow got tired of being picked being in all the time okay so the rule was we're not allowed to go in the cornfield So me and my little cousin, well, we thought we'd go ahead and cheat
Starting point is 01:16:05 Who got tired of being it all the time So we ran in the cornfield To hide Get tired of being it all the time So we ran in the cornfield To hide Get tired of being it all the time When we came around this corner
Starting point is 01:16:24 We've seen this huge thing with long hair Watching other kids it seemed like it moved his head and had to move his shoulder down. So when I touched it, I thought it was my cousin Tim because he had long hair too. So I touched it. And it turned around with glowing red eyes and growling. And it stood straight up. And my head looked up and I asked him, you're going to kill me now, aren't you?
Starting point is 01:16:53 And the creature looked side to side and walked away. and then my sister and her cousin heard these heavy foot stamps running away. This is 121 State Ohio. This creature
Starting point is 01:17:12 I don't care if people said this Bigfoot creatures are vicious or nothing. The Bigfoot creature is not vicious. I don't think he is. Brett, then I'm going to hurt you. And it's pretty awesome I've been
Starting point is 01:17:29 looking for him more than since I go camping in the woods looking for them once in a while I can find footprints of them and sometimes you want to go through the woods when you get a strong feeling something's watching you
Starting point is 01:17:44 and this to me it was awesome because I like to how this creature is he doesn't how people movies make this creature
Starting point is 01:17:57 the vicious animal or the human flesh they don't if you're living B they'll leave you B that that and the glowing red eyes
Starting point is 01:18:14 is when they're upset because he when you touch something like you're being surprised right when I come behind you and touch you on the shoulders and scare you When you'd be upset to you a little bit, he turned around on me.
Starting point is 01:18:29 It was a growl and red eyes. When you'd be upset to you a little bit, he turned around on me, it was a growl, red eyes. And he stood like 7 feet, 8 feet tall. His eyes changed a little bit. And you can see the moonlight. He was looking both ways. I was talking to him.
Starting point is 01:18:52 You're going to kill me now? when I was a 12 year old boy actually I wasn't scared wasn't scared at all he just walked away from me thank you thank you for sharing those accounts Wayne
Starting point is 01:19:11 I know you've said the place where it was a few times but can you say the area that happened again in Ohio 121 out of side chest of Ohio yeah I'm having issues hearing the actual town name. I apologize.

Yes, sir. All right.
Starting point is 01:20:15 Well, thank you. I appreciate you coming up, Wayne. Thank you. Hey, how's it going? Hi, good. How are you? Good, good. So you have some weird stuff that's been going on in the woods to share.
Starting point is 01:20:31 Yeah, so I just noticed that like you didn't have anybody else with any Bigfoot stories, but I do have like, I think it was like 23. I went to go to stay in a yoga school for a month up in western Massachusetts, like out in the middle of the woods. Oh, wow. I've periodically like throughout my life just go to stay at like these places out in the middle of nowhere. like that kind of all over the United States. Just like get away like retreats. And so this this particular one was like a yoga teacher training. And so I was out there and it was the building itself was, I think it was at one person,
Starting point is 01:21:18 a person in this building like their summer house there. Then they died. They left it to the church. The church turned it into a monastery. And then the monastery. It got sold to be the yoga school. So it got converted a third time. And I'm sure originally it was probably Native American land, of course, way before all of that.

Mabelene, New York. So the land that it was on and the school itself was up on high up on a mountain or hill or whatever.
Starting point is 01:24:35 And it overlooked the forest and it overlooked a lake. And it was just really beautiful, really majestic school I stayed at. I didn't even know what it was going to look like when I got there. I was just like my mind was like blown, you know, when I arrived. So on the seventh day I was there, I went hiking because we had like, like one day off from our training. So I said, okay, I'm going to go hiking. And so I just went by myself, but everybody was like, oh, we'll just be careful for the bears and this and that because we were really deep.
Starting point is 01:25:10 We were really deep out in the forest. And I was like, yeah, yeah, whatever. So I went hiking down the hill and I was, I went through a little trail through the woods and it's like going towards the lake. and I just started to kind of go into a like almost a, I felt like a trance like state. And I was just by myself and it just felt as though something was trying to communicate to me, whether it's ancestors, Native Americans, Bigfoot.
Starting point is 01:25:48 Basically, I was already in a susceptible state because I was meditating for like a week straight. So I was in a, I guess, an altered state. And so I'm out in the woods by myself in an altered state through meditation, not through any type of drugs, you know. Right. And I felt as though I became sort of a transmedium, you know, in the woods. And I received like, I felt as though I was telepathically communicating to some beings.
Starting point is 01:26:24 I don't know, aliens, ancestors, whatever, you know. And they were saying basically like, this is fake, like the building, everything is fake, like your identity, everything, you know, it's just the only thing that's real is nature and the earth and like protecting the earth is like what I felt I received that information. you know, while I was in the, you know, so it was just, it was very weird. I went into this trance. I did like these weird movements that I never did before, almost like a dance. And I don't know.
Starting point is 01:27:05 It was just a really interesting experience. It was very, it was very profound. It was a very, like, profound experience that I had. And, you know, I don't, I can't really explain it. But I felt like there was. beings there with me, but I didn't like, I couldn't see them, but I felt as though I was communicating to something. I have a good idea of the area that you're talking about.
Starting point is 01:27:35 And if I'm right, that area or region is super, super active. Yes. It was like Lenox, Massachusetts. Yeah. I was thinking like Stockbridge, Great Barrington area. Yeah, it was like by, it's not far. from Stockbridge. I was like, play about a mile from Stockbridge,
Starting point is 01:27:55 you know. Yeah, pretty much all over that area, October Mountain. Oh, yeah. I've stayed in October Mountain. I have a friend that has a house there. So, yeah, I've stayed. Yeah, they've seen people that just ghosts, just walking
Starting point is 01:28:11 through the woods there. Absolutely. Yeah. There's a ton of Bigfoot activity on October Mountain. And also, if you go further south to Mount Washington, there's a lot, Taringham, Great Barrington, all that whole corner of the state is wild for Bigfoot stuff. I didn't know it was so wild. I just went there thinking I was just going there for a yoga thing.
Starting point is 01:28:33 And like I thought Massachusetts was like more like Boston, like was more built up. So I actually didn't even know that when I went there. And then I just kind of had this whole experience. I was like, whoa, this place is like intense, you know. So. Yeah, you just kind of fell into it. Yeah, the whole Berkshire area is wild. Well, I appreciate you coming up and for chatting a little bit.
