Starting point is 00:01:45 In Bigfoot Society, I've taken far too much of your time so far, so let's get on with the show. All right, Bigfoot Society, we've got the privilege of talking to old friend Swamp Dog from South Jersey again and we're going to see what's been going on over there. So how are we doing today, Swamp Dog? We're doing good. I'm just sitting here. Actually, I'm sitting here in my truck having a cup of coffee, but yeah, we're doing real good. There you go.
Starting point is 00:02:20 So last time we had talked, you had an interesting thing happen where you had some things thrown at your truck and you were experiencing some really wild stuff out there. But that's been a while back. After that big stick, I was throwing my truck, and I had called you up, and we talked about it. I went back. It was a couple of days later, I went back. Because I read some comments. People have said, how did I know that the stick didn't fall up of a tree or whatever?
Starting point is 00:02:55 And I went back there, and I parked the truck exactly where it happened. and I was with the other Bigfoot researcher, and we were checking it out. And the trees that was near my truck, there were pine trees. And the stick that was thrown in my truck was nothing like the trees that was near my truck. There were different type of branches. We looked around and stuff, and we hiked around that area looking for tracks and stuff. And that area is funny because they got things.
Starting point is 00:03:37 I call them ground blinds. They're like thick structures, but they're like blinds. You know what I'm trying to say? Nothing with a roof or nothing. It's more like a blind, like a hunting blind. And we were thinking and we were looking and we were trying to figure things out. And it probably was about 20 yards away from me. that happened and we never seen it because of these type of blinds.
Starting point is 00:04:08 And I keep looking at them blinds. I go back there all the time and you can hide back there. And me and the other researcher, we went back there and we got behind these structures and stuff and we can see where something or somebody can hide back there. and do what they want because it's like a hunting a blind kind of deal, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:04:37 Now, me being a deer hunter because I had a bo hunt, I think these things were like excellent built, you know what I'm saying? I couldn't do no better. Oh, absolutely. And this is in the same area where you had the issue
Starting point is 00:04:50 with the sticks thrown at your truck, correct? Yes, yep. That's what we was because we went back there and we wanted to check it out. But yeah, that's what there was nothing that fell up of a tree and, you know, I had heard other comments and stuff. But, yeah, it's just something happened. Now, a couple of days later, what I did was I went back to that same spot in Westside Park.
Starting point is 00:05:17 And I got there 11 o'clock at night. And I put back into that parking spot, I'm by myself. I shut the truck off. And I said, you know what? I'm going to camp out here. tonight. And I had shut the truck off and I let the windows open about an inch on each side. I do mean the passenger door and the driver door. The truck was completely off. My truck has like a mile 10th to it. So it's hard to see inside like at nighttime. If I have all the lights off
Starting point is 00:05:53 inside, I went to sleep. I stood the seat all the way back. I folded back. I got comfortable. and I just, I took a nap. Although that I wanted to be there all night, it didn't happen, but what happened was I finally went to sleep around 11, 11.30 at night. Everything was off. Nobody was in the park. I'm looking around and make sure there's nobody around and all that stuff. About 2 o'clock in the morning, I felt the back of my truck shake.
Starting point is 00:06:26 And it worked me up, but I didn't move. And then my truck said like another shake. But I can feel it that it was on the back of my truck. So I didn't move or nothing. And I heard like a grunt and sound. And then I didn't hear no more. I didn't feel my truck shake anymore. So I'm just sitting in my seat and I'm saying to myself,
Starting point is 00:06:57 if things get weird, I'm going to hit the panic button on my keychain for the alarm on my truck. That was my plans. And I wanted to see what would happen if I did that. I waited another five, ten minutes after I felt the truck shake last and shook again, but this time was more aggressive. I didn't start the truck up. I hit the panic button, and my headlights and my back in my tail lights, they were flashing,
Starting point is 00:07:35 and then the hall was blowing. We hit the panic button, and when that happened, I actually heard something run away from the back of my truck, back into the woods, and actually heard whatever was going through the woods, it was crashing through the woods and all that stuff, and I said, I'm out. I started the truck up. I turned my off-road lights on, and I left, and I went back home. I told Tammy what happened, and she didn't want me to do stuff like that anymore. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Wow. Yeah. And as I'm coming out the woods, and it's not like a long trail, it's like a trail, and it comes out to the parking lot for Westside Park. And when you come out the parking lot, that's when you hit, you mean, Almond Road. and I made my left and went on down back to the house. But, yeah, that's what happened that night. Now, the next morning, I went back to my truck, and I had to take my wife to Walmart.
Starting point is 00:08:38 She had to buy dog food and stuff like that. So when she came out of Walmart, she had the bag of dog food and then water and stuff, and I was going to put it back in the truck. And she said, what's all this stuff? It was like on the passenger side on the rear by my taillight, it was like, I don't know, I don't want to call it like slime, but maybe it was like oilish. You mean like the oily? And I was like, what the hell is that?
Starting point is 00:09:13 I'm thinking maybe that's where they were shaking back on my truck from the corner back there. because it was like an oily residue. But this had a smell to it. You took your index finger and you wiped it on, like you rubbed on it and you smell it. It had a smell to it. Wow. And like it was oily.
Starting point is 00:09:37 After we got home and we put the stuff away, like in the house and all that stuff, we went to the car wash and I wanted to watch that stuff off And that stuff really didn't come off my truck. Yes. So what I ended up... So what I end up had it doing was I got some fine sandpaper
Starting point is 00:09:56 and I sanded that area down. And I don't know, but my truck is Camus. And I could re-painted that area with my camel spray paint from Westolium. But that was an oily residue and it had a smell to it. I can't explain the smell, but my wife, we even used the brush at the car wash to try to brush it, wash it off with the brush, and it wouldn't come off. That's why it said, I end up, I wet sanded it, and then I repainted it, you know what I mean? But I don't know, I don't know what that was. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:10:39 You know what I'm trying to say, I don't know what that was. Any, like, fingerprints? Yeah, that's the thing. out there had it was like a handprint on the damn yeah a handprint but not you can see you could you could you couldn't see like a full handprint but you mean it wasn't a full one yeah well maybe was like maybe it was a palm you know what I don't know but that stuff you mean I couldn't watch it all and like I said it did have a smell to it but like it was oily like if you had I tell you what If you put like me WD 40, you know how oily WD40 is?
Starting point is 00:11:17 Sure. You mean like you said, that's how it was. So that was like from two o'clock in the morning and we got at a Walmart, what, like 10 o'clock in the morning? So that came home around 2 o'clock and then we got up and went to Walmart and we got home at 11 and we went to the call watch. It was about 12 o'clock. Let's say from 2 o'clock in the morning all the way to noon time, that stuff was. on my truck. It did dry up or nothing. You know what I'm trying to say? Is there a color to it? I don't remember it was. It was like oily. It was like a brownish.
Starting point is 00:11:52 I can see it because like I said, my truck is given camoed. I got the green, the brown, the black. I got the darker green. I got tan, six different colors on my truck that's cammered. And it was, I'm like a brownish color, right? On the color, because it was on the light colors in the dark. Yeah, because it was on the tan, the black, and the green. It was hard to see. But on the tanish part, it was like a brownish color. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:12:24 You mean a little light brownish color? Or just not like turpid. I don't know. Like, you mean, a brownish color. So, you mean, I don't know. You know what I don't know. Yeah, gotcha. That's crazy Swamp Dog.
Starting point is 00:12:36 If you want to look more into that kind of stuff, you can search for people. are calling it Albavernex. It's like the oily, it's the sebum, that oily substance that people are finding. And the term that's being thrown around for is Alba Vernix.
Starting point is 00:12:55 But was Jacob able to get a look at it? No, at that point, yeah. No, Jacob, I try to texting Jacob, but sometimes his phone has problems. I don't know. Yeah, so I never got a chance to tell him about that.
Starting point is 00:13:09 But I've been doing things on my own over here because he lives way about an hour from me. Okay. And sometimes it's hard for him to get down here. Or actually sometimes it's hard to get a hold of him. I've been laying low down here because I've been doing my thing down here. But when I hit the panic button that night, whatever it was, it scared it. And it went crashing through the woods.
Starting point is 00:13:34 It was like a bulldozer going through the woods. I knew what it was. But I said, it's time for me to go. I'm out. and out the woods I went. That's wild. So when you and Jacob, you guys were able to meet up,
Starting point is 00:13:48 what was that like? You guys were able to, I'm sure, swap stories. Yeah, the first time he came down here, we hit every spot that I had my encounters. Wow. For my first encounter at the airport. I don't know if I did or if he was going to send it to you because he says he's going to send it to you.
Starting point is 00:14:08 But we videoed. take woodnought at the airport. Really? Yeah. And what happened was that was my first to stop. And it was weird because we parked our trucks at the entrance of this place. And we wasn't too short. We was going to walk out in the middle of field and like you all that because I was going to
Starting point is 00:14:35 show them where we were parked at that night back in 1989. But what happened was into the field, all of a sudden, we heard all these. First of all, we heard the two wood knocks. One was on the right, and the other one was toward the left, and there were about 20, 30 yards apart from each other. And we heard the wood knocks. After we heard the wood knocks, then we heard all these coyotes. there must have been
Starting point is 00:15:09 I don't know I'm taking a guess maybe 10 coyotes maybe 15 but they were all howl and yipping and yiping and they were running away from the woodnocks and I looked at him
Starting point is 00:15:21 and he looked at me and my wife was like what was that and yeah he ran back to his car to get his phone and he recorded like the end
Starting point is 00:15:33 of that type of encounter we heard the wood knocks back during that airport. Now, that night, I went back. I went back by myself. My wife was home. Jacob already left.
Starting point is 00:15:48 I drove in the middle of that field, and that I stopped, I shut the truck down. I didn't hear nothing. And then I drove farther up where I saw this thing standing. You remember when I said it was going right to left?
Starting point is 00:16:04 I drove up to that. section there. And when I did, I shut the truck off, and I re-heard the same wood knocks again. But they were from two different directions. Was there a pattern to the knocks? A knock was one knock on the right. If you're facing the wood knock sounds,
Starting point is 00:16:27 the one on the right-hand side only did one knock. And then the one on the left-hand side only did one knock. Wellness, longevity, health as a lifestyle.

Starting point is 00:18:47 and they were each doing one knock each you know what I'm saying they were
Starting point is 00:18:53 taking turns doing the wood knocks and then I just started the truck back up
Starting point is 00:18:57 I turned on all my wrote lights on and I backed out of there. I made a Ui and I drove real slow right out of the field and I never went back. You know, he was the last time. But yeah, so, yeah, that's what happened. And he was, I don't know what he still had to have that recording because he was, he was, I don't
Starting point is 00:19:21 know what he was scared. My wife said he was scared, but I was just shocked. You know what I mean? I was like amazed. I made excited and not scared but shocked and amazing excited
Starting point is 00:19:33 how yeah different people react different ways and that there's no problem yeah yeah I told them
Starting point is 00:19:37 I looked at them and I said I told you because I was excited I told you I said they're here you know what I mean
Starting point is 00:19:45 and he's like these he says but when he was there and we heard the woodnacks all these coyotes ran away
Starting point is 00:19:52 and as they're running they were yipping and yiping and do a coyote sound or whatever they do. They were yipping and yiping. And they were moving too. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:20:01 They were moving. By the time we stopped hearing them, they were probably at 100 yards away from the woodbox. That's what's going on down here. It would be interesting to be able to look up that area and figure out who owns it and then ask those owners if they've ever experienced anything. I got lucky because I saw about a couple weeks ago. me and my wife we went into the Wawa one of the girls that we know in there we found out that
Starting point is 00:20:36 she her backyard butts up against the airport from Garden Roadside so I never mentioned anything about Bigfoot or anything like that she was telling me oh you hunt I said yeah she goes yeah we have a guy that he used to hunt our property and he used to hunt turkeys but But we let him do it only if he killed the coyotes in the area because I guess they had a lot of coyotes. And he went back there during turkey hunting. I think he did twice and he never went back. Why? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:21:15 I can't say why. You know what I'm saying? Wow. But hunters in turkey hunting, that's popular. I would never walk away from a turkey hunt. You know what I'm saying? but the guy only turkey hunted twice and he never came back. Is that by a lake?
Starting point is 00:21:35 Nah, it's by the river, the Morris River there, like you want to talk about. That river that goes through Westside Park. Yeah. That goes all the way through that area, maybe about a half a mile away. You know what I mean from that waterway. And it goes all the way through that lake up in Malaga, where Jacob was talking about the people were, they never took me over there.
Starting point is 00:22:01 I was going to ask you about that. So you never were able to go over there? No. No, we tried to ask them about it, and he never went. Not that I know, but he told me he never went over there. And I wanted to go because I wanted to see what that was going on over there. And I wanted to know why they were feeding these things. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:22:24 You know what I'm saying? Yeah. But, and that, that waterway goes all the way up to Mollica Hill. Yeah, that's, I don't know what, about 20 miles away. Yeah. The waterways and all that stuff. Well, see, it all gives me fingers out, you know what I'm saying? It goes from lake to stream, the lake to stream.
Starting point is 00:22:48 Sure. But, yeah. And then, I mean, after the airport, after we calm down, and then I, I should, you know, showed him the spot where I had that encounter when I was hooking up to that trailer, when I was a truck driver, and it was howling and coming down at me and all that. And then I took them to the spot where I seen it on my motorcycle. And, you mean, but the encounter of the $2.95 with the rest of the area, we didn't go there because that's like an hour away.
Starting point is 00:23:19 Sure. And then after that, we went on ways, and he called me up. I don't know. I'm thinking maybe two weeks later, him and his wife came down to Violin, and we went in the West Side Park. And we saw eyes shine and all that stuff. We sat at a truck. Jacob was in the back seat, and his wife was sitting up front with May. and we shut the truck down
Starting point is 00:23:49 and all I had was my flashlight and we had nothing on anything but we actually did see eyes shine and we got out of there because I shine one eye shine I remember was about seven feet tall and the other one was about eight and when I seen the eight
Starting point is 00:24:09 I started the truck up I said we're out and I went out because it was like 10 yards away or less from my truck. And we had the windows down. And I looked back to Jacob, I said, Jacob, you think this is a good idea? Because we can't, like, you can't see your hands in front of your face. That's how darker was back in there. And he said, yeah, we'll be all right.
Starting point is 00:24:33 I said, okay. So we're hearing noises. And I said, you know what? I grabbed my flashlight out of the side of my door. And I signed it. And that's when we've seen the eye shine. and I started the truck up and we left and there was red eyeshine
Starting point is 00:24:50 the eyeshines was red like you remember I told you before every time I've seen these things I'd ever seen no eyeshine that night we saw red eyeshine and you know that's when we left and she got
Starting point is 00:25:05 I don't know she got nervous or whatever but they jumped in their cars and they took off and actually I was the last I seen Jacob so I talked to a guy from Norris North Jersey a little bit ago named Mike Familat. It would be really interesting if you were able to talk to him someday.
Starting point is 00:25:25 I think that would be pretty cool. Yeah, I mess with him. Okay. I mess with him because he did a video on his channel, and he was saying something about he was out in North Jersey some words, doing some research. And I mean, I text him on the video. And I told him, I don't know if you see anything in North Jersey, but if you want to see something, come to South Jersey. But I never heard nothing more, you know what I mean? So.
Starting point is 00:25:54 All right. That was the guy that he said he has a vehicle that I guess his truck is a big foot truck or something. I don't know. Yeah, he's a cool guy. He goes all over the U.S. doing different spots and making videos for YouTube and stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I heard the podcast. I heard that.
Starting point is 00:26:13 Oh, yeah. Oh, that. Yeah. But I don't know. It's just, I don't think, it's weird because, give me, like, all fall, because I do a bow hunting all fall. Okay. And right now, I'm the winter boat season here in Jersey.
Starting point is 00:26:29 It's from January 1st to January 31st. But when I was going into the woods, let's say, like in September, and I'm looking for a place to hang my blind or, you know what I mean, or a place to do you make the deer and stuff because in Jersey you're a lot of baked deer. And every once in a while, you get to know the hunters that go in and out of there. Right. And I met up with six, seven, eight, but nine or ten hunters I talked to every week at the beginning. and now I'm the only one
Starting point is 00:27:11 the hunts in this area but anyway like in September and October they see my truck and there's some guys that I never talk to just wave high but if I'm like walking down the trail or something
Starting point is 00:27:27 and they're walking the opposite direction and say hey you're the big foot researcher I'm going to know I'm not a big foot researcher I said I'm just hunting they said why you're a swamped though, right? I said, yeah. He said, you were on a big foot show. I said, yeah, but I'm not a researcher. Now, you're a pulling. So, okay, here's the thing, Swamp Dog. I still don't believe that people
Starting point is 00:27:50 listen to this. So are you for serious? That's so funny, dude. Yeah, people walk up to me and say, no, you're the bigfoot researcher. And it's not just in my hunt spot where I go hunting on that type of park, that area. I go to another area that's the power lines. And, and, you know, and, you're a bigfoot researcher. And, And I met up with a guy that he lives, I don't know, maybe a quarter of a mile away from the power lines. And he has game trail cameras everywhere. He's got allowed 10 or 15 game care. He's seen my truck on his game trail camera.
Starting point is 00:28:27 And the one that he has is when it goes off, and automatically goes through his cell phone, and he sees what goes, and he sees what went to buy his game truck. camera and then he saw my truck and he saw a swamp dog he come out on an e-bike you know me those bikes that that are motorized by battery and he says are you the swamp dog from the podcast from big sports society i said yeah he said you're the big foot researcher i said no i'm not a big foot researcher. I was just on the show
Starting point is 00:29:02 a few times and talk about but I'm not a recent. Everybody thinks I'm a researcher. Oh and it was in the car. Remember what he swamped all? Oh yeah yeah. Oh my God. Here I am. I'm out of red light.
Starting point is 00:29:19 I'm not a red light. I'm just sitting there out of red light. Now I should have smoking a cigarette, wait for the light to turn green. This kid rides a lumpse on my truck. He's in his car and he's blowing his horn. I don't know, what the hell is this one? He says, Swap Dog.
Starting point is 00:29:38 He says, he says, talking about Bigfoot. What do you say? He said, you were on, someone big for him. Yeah, and then he told him, I don't know whether his wife or his girlfriend, he's going to, that's the Bigfoot researcher right there. I'm like, no, I'm not a Bigfoot researcher. I said, you're crazy. I says, yeah, but, yeah, but he was a young kid, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:29:59 I don't know. Swatog, you're in it now. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Everybody's, oh, that's a Bigfoot researcher. I'm like, no, I'm not a bigfoot researcher. Here's a question for you. So you have been poking around Vineland in areas. Have you heard of any other sightings or any historical things?
Starting point is 00:30:18 I know you had mentioned a while back that there was the older couple that you would talk to the time. Yeah. I also, I made a video on my YouTube channel. You know what I mean? Yeah, yep. I got a little beauty YouTube channel. It's really not about Bigfoot. It's about overland camping
Starting point is 00:30:34 and trucks and stuff like that. But I put the thing on there. I can't, in name, he was a bow hunter. He don't bow hunt no more. He told me that he went a bow hunting, and it was in the beginning.
Starting point is 00:30:52 I think it was October. I forget what day it was. But anyway, I think it was the first week of October. He went to a bow hunt and he had one in Millville, New Jersey, at a place called Manatego Ponds. And he had one that terrorized them. And he didn't get out of the stand to noontime.
Starting point is 00:31:18 And he never went back boath hunting ever again. And I asked him to take me to where it was and he wouldn't even go back in there. He told me as he was walking through his. stand it was like four o'clock in the morning and he heard something I guess was like pacing him and he had maybe about a mile walk where he parked his truck to his stand and when he got to his stand he was already like his head was on a swivel but he didn't want to turn his flashlight on because he didn't want whatever it was he He didn't know where it was a hobo or it was a person or, you know what?
Starting point is 00:32:04 He never even thought about Bigfoot or anything like that. He actually thought that it was a person trying to cause trouble. So he didn't want to shine the flashlight and give whatever it was an idea where he was at because of the light on the flashlight. It's just 4 o'clock in the morning. Anyway, he said by 6 o'clock in the morning, he saw what it was. and he said it was about six and a half feet tall and it harassed him so bad
Starting point is 00:32:33 that he didn't get down from the stand until about noontime and when he got down from his stand he actually, I guess he grabbed his bow and he ran to his truck and he never went back in the woods ever again and he said he bought a thousand dollar dough that season and he never used it.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Oh wow. So I. I asked him he went to go get his stand. He said he never went back to go get his stand or anything. And he drew me a map where he was. And I went there and the stand was still there. Really? Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:33:11 It's that kind of stuff when you see that stuff and you're like, oh boy. Me and my wife, we actually knocked the stand down. We took it apart. It was like a 15 foot high stand. We took it apart, we dragged it to my truck, and I dropped it off at his house. Good for you. Yeah. Wow.
Starting point is 00:33:32 But I went back there. Actually, we went back there. Yesterday we went back there, didn't we? Wellness, longevity, health as a lifestyle.

Starting point is 00:35:33 all the people in risk, it's really the eruption dolorousa with ampollos during the things are
Starting point is 00:35:41 even the things are all a lot of the way difficult. Talked on your doctor or pharmaceutical,
Starting point is 00:35:48 patrocineated for G. Yesterday we went back there. And I mean, I wasn't a hunter or nothing. Me and my wife, we just took a little hike through there. And we went to a secret when we took the stand down, I marked that tree. And I can remember which tree it was. And actually, we had lunch there and everything.
Starting point is 00:36:16 And me and my wife, because we went to the Wildwell, got some hoagies and sodas. And we went there. And we sat there and we had our lunch. We were there for that good two hours. Like we didn't hear or see anything. And we were looking for tracks and stuff and we didn't see nothing. But, yes, that kid never went bo-hunting ever again. Yeah, and I see that.
Starting point is 00:36:41 You have a video about it on your channel. I'll definitely have that link in the show notes. Yeah. It comes out for sure. People can check that out. Yeah, you can go on my show. channel. It's called Swamp Dog Overland Adventure and it's one of them by doing me videos, not shorts, but the videos, but you can hear about it. But that kid, I feel bad for him.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Have you ever thought of, let's say you're out in the woods, bow hunting? And what if you actually do come across one of these creatures again face to face? It happened. It happened two three weeks ago. Bring us through it. Okay. I wasn't, first of all, I don't want to say
Starting point is 00:37:23 where it was, but the only thing that I can say is it's not too far away from Westside Park. Okay. Okay, but I don't want to say
Starting point is 00:37:33 where it was. And a lot of crazy stuff happened there in the past two or three weeks. The past two or three weeks, a lot of crazy stuff had happened.
Starting point is 00:37:46 I didn't want, I have put a brand new blind up where I hunt. And usually when you put a new blind up, I like to leave it alone for a week or two. I don't want to be around that blind. I put my corn out. I put some apples my wife got at the store. And you kind of baited, you know what I'm going to be about 20 yards away from my blind.
Starting point is 00:38:09 And we walked away from it. Because, I mean, a lot of times when you put something like that on the ground, And when a deer walks in, they look at it and say, wait a minute, that wasn't there yesterday. You know what I mean? That's if you walk in your living room and somebody moved your chair, that chair was moved. You know what I'm trying to say? That's how we think that deer do. So when we put the blind up, we baited and everything, we walked away from it.
Starting point is 00:38:38 And I said to my wife, I said, I'm going to hunt the power lines. So I let that area alone. It was raining that day, raining off and on, and the deer really wasn't moving. And I had walked, I'll say about a mile and a quarter, and there's a spot on the left side of the power line as you're walking up to it, where I like to sit on my little hunt stool, because I got trees, I got pine trees, I got bush, I'm covered up pretty good. I could tuck myself in that real good. I'm texting my wife, and I'm telling her where exactly I am in case something happens,
Starting point is 00:39:22 and I wish she knows where I'm at. I was there around three, four hours, and I haven't seen no deer, I haven't seen no movement. I haven't even heard a coyote, nothing, not even a squirrel. I haven't even heard any birds, and I'm thinking maybe because,
Starting point is 00:39:44 it's raining off and on, maybe everything's just laying down. But every once in a while, on the other side of the power lines, and it's about, I don't know, I'm guessing 50 yards on the other side, like the power lines. I keep hearing, like, little sticks are snapping. Like somebody's walking, and they're walking on sticks, and the sticks are snapping. I'm saying myself
Starting point is 00:40:16 That's not a deer That's not a coyote It could be a bear Because we do have bears here In South Jersey Up and down to pine barons There are bears down here You know what I mean
Starting point is 00:40:29 And I'm thinking Maybe that's a bear Because that's heavy enough To walk through the woods It's not sticks You know what I mean Your deer really ain't gonna do that The squirrels ain't gonna do that
Starting point is 00:40:41 even if it was like a 50 or 60-pound coyote, because we got that big down here. They're not going to do that. I keep hearing sticks snapping. And, you mean, I'm texting my wife, I says, I think there's a bear near me because I keep hearing the stick snapping. And so she just said, keep a lookout, all that stuff,
Starting point is 00:41:01 and I'm looking. I got my bra. I got my binoculars, and I'm glassing, you know what I mean, all over the place, and I'm glassing behind me. I cross the power lines. I'm blasting down the power lines and all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:41:16 And I don't see nothing. No sign of life anywhere. Not even another hunter. I'm sitting there. I eat my lunch. I had a... What are you called? A little sausages?
Starting point is 00:41:26 Oh, yeah. I had a couple cans of Vienna sausages. And I'm munching on there with crackers and I'm having my coffee because Tammy made me like a thermos of coffee. And every once in a while, I hear me little stick snapping. And that was bugging me because you usually don't hear that sometimes in the woods.
Starting point is 00:41:47 I don't know. I don't know about other states and they got bigger animals. But here in South Jersey, the only thing that will do that is a black bear or another human. And a hunter is not going to do that because they're trying to be, trying to be as quiet as possible. because they don't want to alert no deer that they're in the area, you know what I'm saying? I'm under a tree. I'm getting wet, but not to that bad.
Starting point is 00:42:15 About, there was like about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I said, you know what, I had enough. That's nothing out here. I don't see nothing. I don't hear nothing, except for these sticks napping. I packed up. I threw my hunting bag on the back of my shoulder. I grabbed my bow, and I started walking down the power lines,
Starting point is 00:42:34 and I was right smack in the middle of the power lines. just in case, I don't know, you know what I'm saying? Something come out the woods and charge me. I don't know. It could be a bear. Whatever. I don't know. Because I don't see nothing.
Starting point is 00:42:47 I'm in the middle of the power lines and I got my head on a swivel. I get halfway down the power lines. I can see my truck. My truck's about halfway down the power lines from me. And I called something on my right side. And I looked and I looked and I saw. saw something dark. But whatever, it was a tree
Starting point is 00:43:11 that was knocked down. And you can tell the tree's been like that for a couple of years, because the tree looked like it's rotted. You know what I mean? And so when I'm looking and looking, I'm, what the heck is that? So at first I'm thinking I was right.
Starting point is 00:43:30 That's a bear. So I knocked an arrow just in case. when I knocked the arrow, I completely turned towards this dark object. It was squatting
Starting point is 00:43:45 behind this tree that has fallen. And when I turned, it was about 75 yards away from me. And when I turned, it stood up. And then I knew what it was. But the funny part is
Starting point is 00:44:03 I didn't have an inch of fear in me. I wasn't scared. I wasn't startled. I just looked at it like the hell already again, like it's happening all over again. And I stood there and my arrow was notched on my bow and I shoot with a release.
Starting point is 00:44:25 You know what I mean? And I was ready to shoot something if I had to. But I can't explain it. Jeremiah, I wasn't afraid. I wasn't scared. I wasn't startled. I was just like, really? And when it stood up, I called, I named him the eight footer because that's what he was.
Starting point is 00:44:49 He was eight foot. And I could re-measured it about three days later. Me and my wife, we went back to the spot and she stood up there.

Starting point is 00:47:13 tree that fell and we measured and it was around eight foot I call it the eight
Starting point is 00:47:19 footer but what happened was that day it was by 75 yards away and when I turned completely towards it
Starting point is 00:47:27 it came down towards me and at 50 yards away from me I started walking towards it and when I started walking towards it it stopped and when it stopped I stopped and it looked at me and you know how when a dog's head left to right that's what it did
Starting point is 00:47:50 and then I said this is where it would be Because I said to it, I said, I'm just hunting just like what you're doing. I want to eat, just like what you want to eat. And as I'm talking to it, and I'm saying this, it was tilted its head, okay? And all of a sudden, I got emotional, and I started having tears coming down my eyes. and as I started getting tears coming down my eyes, it turned around and walked away.
Starting point is 00:48:27 And I stood there for about, I don't know, I made two, three minutes. I started walking towards my truck. And I'm sweating. And it wasn't wet because it was raining. I was wet like on my head because I was sweating. And you mean, and then what happened was, I got to my truck. I put my bow and my backpack.
Starting point is 00:48:54 I threw everything on the hood of my truck. Open the door, and I lit up a cigarette. And I sat on my truck, and the door was open. As I'm smoking a cigarette, this other guy comes here, and he was going to do some muzzle-loading hunting. And he parked next to me, and he asked me, have I seen anything? And I said, I haven't seen anything all morning.
Starting point is 00:49:20 I've been here all morning. And I haven't even seen a squirrel. He said, yeah, I'm only able to hump maybe two times a month. And I took a half a day off of work. And I'm hunting today. I don't care. My phone's off. So he took his moza loader out of the sock.
Starting point is 00:49:40 I call it a sock. It looks like a long sock that you put the mozumader in. and he got a he has a climber stand he got a backpack he says how's a good one and i didn't say nothing he he walked up the power line 60 70 yards up the power line he stopped now mind you this guy was gunhoe about hunting he said he's only able to hump maybe twice a month because of his job and this and that. He walked 60, 70 yards. I'm watching him.
Starting point is 00:50:18 I have my eyes on him all the way up. He walked 60, 70 yards. He stopped. He looked towards the left. He stood there, maybe two or three minutes, turned around and walked back to his truck, threw everything in the back of his truck. He put his muzzleloader back in his sock,
Starting point is 00:50:38 and he left. Never said a word to me. Really? Yeah, he seen what I seen, and he went home. Before he started walking up to Paralyze, he was all gone home. He wanted to go above the whole loading. He didn't care. He took a half a day work off, this and that.
Starting point is 00:50:58 He only walked 60, 70 yards up to power line stop. He stood there for about two, three minutes, turned around, walked back through his truck, and he left. Never said a word to me. And I never seen that truck. over again. Well, it might be a fun thing for you to try is have you tried contacting local law enforcement and like the fish and wildlife? I would be in charge of that area or? I became, I don't want to say very good friends, but I became friendly with a
Starting point is 00:51:37 conservation officer. I call it gay what I don't think he likes it, but I call him a gay one. I don't think he likes it when I call him the Gay Warning, but he's a conservation officer. Okay. I got friendly with him. Matter of fact, I got friendly with him enough that I got his cell number, and he has mine. But I never mentioned to him. I really don't want to mention it to him. I was going to beat him on the bush.
Starting point is 00:52:00 Uh-huh. You know what I mean? Pick out his brain to see what he had to say, but I never did. And I haven't seen him. I text him Happy New Year. And he texts me back, hey, happy New Year's swamp. That was great. So if he's here, does he knows who I am and all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:52:22 But now, where I have my blind, I have, I don't say that my friends, but I know them because I see them all the time. And I don't know if I'm saying this right, but it was six Mexican-Americans or American-Mexicans. I don't know. Sure. But they, they bow hunt, and they also use a muzzleloader. And I've been seeing them and talking to them, and I've been giving them information,

Starting point is 00:55:01 during that even the tasks more simple are all a retort. No, not learn about the Culebrilla to the way
Starting point is 00:55:08 about a doctor or pharmaceutical, patrocino for GSK So after I had
Starting point is 00:55:15 that encounter I never said nothing of it I came home and told Tanya what happened
Starting point is 00:55:19 and she said what are you do you're going to do? You're going to keep bow hunting?
Starting point is 00:55:26 Because this thing didn't bother me and for some reason I wasn't afraid and when I
Starting point is 00:55:30 tell you this thing was eight-footer he was an eight-footer wide and he He was thick.
Starting point is 00:55:37 When he turned around, he was, I'm thinking of myself, this thing's three feet thick. Wow. If I shot him with my arrow, right? My arrow is 30 inches. And my arrow, if I ever shot something like that in the chest, my arrow will never go through. And my arrows are 30 inches, exactly. Like, it won't go out the back. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:56:02 If I shot it, if it got stuck, and it will never win. through. This thing was like me. That's like the width and the thickness of this thing. It was like mind-boggler. Like this thing will pick you up and rip you limb by limb and there's nothing you can do about it. Sure. Did you get a good look at the face of the creature? The face? That's another thing too. My wife asked me about the face. And I told her it was the same type of thing. face that when I was on my motorcycle encounter, it was like Andre the giant type of look face, but more like an Indian. That's why what I hear people say, oh, this, no.
Starting point is 00:56:54 When I seen this thing up close, I don't know what made me do this because it was 75 yards away and it was walking towards me. For what reason, I don't know. But for some reason, in God's creation or whatever, I walked towards it and it was walking towards me. And when it seemed to me walking towards it, it stopped. And that's when I said to it, look, I'm hunting just like you, honey. I got to eat just like you got to eat. As I'm talking to it, it was toad in its head.
Starting point is 00:57:28 It would give me like a dog does. And I said, is that okay? And it did one tilt to the right, looked at me, and turned around, walked away. And then that's when I walked towards the truck. But this thing had like a person's face. I can say that it kind of looks like Andre the Giants, my face, but more Indian. So I don't know. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:57:57 Very interesting. Have you heard any wood knocks or any like vocalizations in that same area? See, that's the thing. Okay. When I hunt, all this, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, half two, two and a half weeks span. Okay, now, one Saturday morning, I couldn't go to my blind early
Starting point is 00:58:19 because I had something to do. That Saturday, it was a week after that encounter. So, like, that Saturday afternoon, me and my wife, who went to my dear blind, just to make sure everything was still up. Everything's good. About Jim and Tammy, she put corn out and stuff like that because she likes to help me bait and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:58:45 When we pulled in to my spot, when me and Tammy pulled up the six guys that I've been talking to, you know, sharing information with me about deer hunting, they were all there, and they were all knocking the stands down, and they wasn't putting nothing neatly in the back of their truck they were actually throwing stuff in the back of the truck
Starting point is 00:59:10 their stands, their spikes they use you know, they hang the box, they was just throwing everything and they were like scared, they were like really worried and I'm like, yo, what's going on? You know what I mean? And then they're like, oh, like you mean, they were telling me like in Spanish, oh, that the devil's walking through here.
Starting point is 00:59:33 There's something evil going through here. It's the devil. And they were saying that the whole woods exploded, that the devil was in there, making all kinds of noises, about breaking tree branches, yelling, screaming, and they all came down the stand,
Starting point is 00:59:53 and they ran to the truck, and they took off. And then that afternoon, they came back with all their guns. They didn't have the bows. They had all their guns, and they were knocking stands down one by one. As to one of two guys were knocking one stand down, they had maybe three or four around the tree watching.
Starting point is 01:00:19 And I'm thinking, what the heck's going on? Oh, yeah. But they were telling me that the devil was running through there. the one kid told me it was like the woods exploded and all they heard was screams like evil screams and yelling and it sounded like women was being ripped apart and these guys were scared they were really scared and then my wife looked at me i looked at my wife we knew what it was we didn't say nothing they just threw their stands and back of their trucks and they took off and they told me if I knew any better, like me, they said it in Spanish that if I knew what was good for me, I will pack my stuff up and go home somewhere else. And I didn't say enough and I just give me that thing go and all that stuff. And I haven't seen not one of them guys in that area.
Starting point is 01:01:19 And I've been at the power lines and I haven't seen them over there either, which is a power line. and where I hunt is basically the same area. So, you mean, I can actually walk from my blind. I have to walk through some thick woods, but, you mean, I could get to the power lines because I already done it. And I haven't seen the guys no more, but they were, they guys were scared.
Starting point is 01:01:46 These six guys, they came there with guns just to knock your stands down. And, you mean, I haven't seen them no more. That's wild. All this is happening in just the last few weeks. Yep. Yep. And I'm the only one in that area that is hunting.
Starting point is 01:02:08 I'm the only one in that area that's hunting. If you walk through the woods, you don't see a deer stand. There's one blind at the entrance, but I haven't seen that guy hunt there. I don't know. I'm the only one that goes in there and hunts. And I go in there three, four o'clock in the morning, and I don't use a flashlight. I get out of my truck. I get my bow.
Starting point is 01:02:42 I get all my hunting gear. And I walk to my blind at three or four o'clock in the morning. And I'm in a complete darkness. And I don't hear, see anything. thing, I go right to my blind, I don't zip it, I get in, I zip it, and I don't open up my windows until maybe at half hour before like sunset. So now, whatever this thing is, knows that I'm in there. And this is how I'm going to tell you, because I don't know if he knows my truck, I don't know if he knows me, but it was a few times that,
Starting point is 01:03:25 I hunt it all day and all afternoon, and I'm in my blind. About 4.30, the sun goes down. I get out of my blind about 5 o'clock, and it's dark. When I get to my truck, I find maybe rocks on my hood, or I find maybe sticks on my hood. Something's telling me that they know that I'm there. or they're gifted me. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:03:57 But every time I come to my truck, I find something on my hood. Not all the time. Once in a while, I'll find something on my hood. And they leave me alone. If it's the creature that's leaving stuff on my hood, they know where my blind is,
Starting point is 01:04:15 and they're leaving me alone. They don't bother me or nothing. Now, I do hear wood knocks. and I hear a couple wood knocks from different areas. Like when I hear the first wood knock, then a few minutes later, I hear another wood knock at another area, but not too far, and it's not too far, and it's not too far from my hunt blind. I know they know that I'm there, and they know that I know that they're there,
Starting point is 01:04:45 but they haven't bothered me. As I can tell you, they haven't bothered me. and actually when I get out of my truck 4, 5 o'clock in the morning, I have a GPS on my phone. And my wife can see when I'm walking through the woods, that little blue dot, it blinks, blinks, blinks, blinks, as I'm walking. When I get in my blind, I unfold my hunt chair, and I sit there.
Starting point is 01:05:13 I text Tammy. I'm in my blind. I'm okay. So that she goes back to sleep. but they haven't bothered me. Now, me and my wife go back there all the time. They haven't bothered us. One time, it was, actually, it was the other day
Starting point is 01:05:30 when we last dated my blind. There was rocks on my hood when we came back. Now, mind you, my truck's about, I'm about, what, 60, 70 yards away from my blind where I parked my truck, and then I walked down to my blind. I'm about 60, 70 yards away. away from my blind where I parked my truck out here or see anything and we're and when we came back
Starting point is 01:05:57 to the truck after we got dumped to baiting with corn and stuff like that there was rocks on my hood that people must say that oh he's bullshit or he's crazy this is what's happening and I'm the only one hunting in that area and you're keeping this area under wraps right Yeah. Yeah. I don't want to mess in this area because I don't want, I don't want 100 people going through there. You know what I mean? Because, one, I've been working this area hard because, you know what I mean? I don't know. I don't know. It's hard to say, but like when I seen it at 75 yards and that day happened, I got very emotional. And a lot of things was going through my head, like my dad dying. and all kinds of weird stuff going through my head and I got very emotional and when that encounter's ended
Starting point is 01:06:57 I walked back to my truck I just had to sit down but then when this guy came up in his truck the one that was muzzle loading and he was talking to me for a while and I was like maybe five minutes he was talking to me he started walking up and then he came back
Starting point is 01:07:13 and never said a word to me that's weird because you're having a conversation with a guy you walk halfway up to the power line then you turn around walk back and you don't say nothing to the guy you were just having a conversation with you throw everything in your truck and you take off
Starting point is 01:07:31 yeah it's very suspect yeah and he was gonged a hole boc mozo loading you know what I mean and I just I grabbed my bow I ground my bag I threw the back of the truck in my back seat
Starting point is 01:07:45 I took off and I was very emotional that day. I mean, after I got home, I was really emotional because I was thinking about it. And then all this stuff was going through my head with, like when my dad passed away, and, you mean, all the bad things that happened to me in life in the past. All this stuff was going through my head. Yeah. But, yeah, so, you mean, this is what's been going on with me. Swampiaw, it's absolutely wild.
Starting point is 01:08:15 That's a wild update. I would hope that someone listening to this, maybe they've experienced something similar in the same area. And like, I just have a feeling someone's going to put something in the comments, dude. Or even, like, they'll check out your channel and you'll get a comment, like, I have the same thing. Yeah, I only got a 61 subscriber because, you know, I haven't really got into my YouTube channel that hard because I don't know which direction I want to go with this. Yeah, I just go with it. Just make it Swamp Dog.
Starting point is 01:08:45 You know what I'm saying? Yeah, but this stuff's been happening to me. And all honestly, I know they're there. I've been knowing since 89, but I have a person cat.

Starting point is 01:10:57 with ampolls during that even the things are all the whole a problem you don't know
Starting point is 01:11:03 about the Culebrilla to the doctor or pharmaceutical Patrocinoed for GSC But now I'm going in these woods, like I said, 3, 4 o'clock in the morning. Sometimes I go in there five, and you mean I just want to go in there before the deer wakes up and you mean they get out of the bedding area.
Starting point is 01:11:23 But I'm telling you, I walk through there like I'm in peace. I feel safe and I don't have my flashlight on or nothing. I know exactly where my ground blind is. I get in and I'm quiet. I got my phone on mute. And all I do is text my wife back and forth, you know what I mean? But they, I think they're leaving me alone. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:11:51 I don't know if they know my truck, if they know me, or they're saying this guy's okay. I don't know. Because I'm going to tell you something, these six guys, they're good guys, but they like to tear up the property, the woods area. Sure. They're always throwing trash on the ground. They're cutting this.
Starting point is 01:12:11 They're cutting that. You know what I mean? It's just they don't treat the public land like it's supposed to be treated. You know what I'm saying? I pick up after myself. So, I don't know if that's it. I don't know. But they, whatever happened to these guys,
Starting point is 01:12:28 they got the hell out of there and they never came back. Oh, absolutely. So, yeah. So that's what's going on there. I don't know. You got to keep your head on swivel out there, Swamp Dog, for sure. Yeah, but you know what, though? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:12:46 It's hard to explain, but like I'm telling you, like that day, when I saw it and it stood up, and I was like, I'm looking at his eyes and he's looking at my eyes for some reason. I can't explain why I had no fear. and when it was walking towards me and like I said I walked right towards it and when I did that
Starting point is 01:13:11 it was like what the hell you know what I mean this guy's not running away or you know what I'm trying to say this is what I'm thinking you know what I mean and then I got frustrated and I said look I'm here you know what I mean I have to eat just like you so you mean I'm hunting
Starting point is 01:13:25 I'm not doing nothing wrong I'm not breaking nothing I'm not disturbing nothing I'm not destroying anything this is what I'm saying is And this thing was turned in his head, but this is what's going on. And it just turned around and walked away. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:41 It's wild. It's wild. Yeah. I'm, you know, I mean, I wanted to mention something to the conservation officer and see what he had to say. I was going to make, maybe make a joke about Bigfoot
Starting point is 01:13:55 and see what he had to say. You know what I mean? Try to try to bait him and see what he had to say. Oh, you should do it next time. If you ever get in contact, you should. No, yeah, because I see him at least once a week, you know what I mean? Because he goes to other places, too. That's not just this area, but it's, I want to ask him to see what he has to say.
Starting point is 01:14:16 For sure. But these six guys, I haven't seen them no more. And then, like I'm saying, the other two guys that I was talking to, I haven't seen them either. I'm the only one that goes there, and I'm the only one hunting that area. So I don't know what happened Those two guys, I don't know But these guys, they're spending a lot of money On corn, apples,
Starting point is 01:14:39 all this stuff, and all of a sudden They disappear. I don't make no sense. Oh, yeah. I'm not going to buy a hundred dollars worth of stuff To bake these deer And not come back. Yeah, I'm not going to do it.
Starting point is 01:14:53 Yeah, I don't make no sense. You know what I mean? But like I said, I haven't seen anybody in their hunting. And like I said, that the can't during the conservation officer i see him once a week and he's in there maybe about an hour and he's gone yep i don't know but yeah that's what's going on i just it's weird because i watch other shows on youtube and i'm not gonna i'm not gonna mention no names or nothing like that and i don't want to upset anybody i don't care okay i don't want to upset anybody that's out there
Starting point is 01:15:26 But I just can't understand. I'm in southern New Jersey. Yeah. You know what I mean? I'm in a small state, small area where I'm at. And I'm seeing these things. There's people traveling all over the country, and they never see nothing. I don't know how that can be.
Starting point is 01:15:45 And these guys are going into Alaska. They're going all over Canada, Montana, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, and they're never seen anything. And here I am. I'm just buying my own business, doing what Swamp Dog does, and I'm having these encounters. And I don't know if they're gifting me by leaving stuff on my hood, like I said, rock, sticks, or whatever. But I don't know. I don't know if, I don't know. I'm thankful that you're able to keep updating me with what's going on, but I always appreciate talking to you guys.
Starting point is 01:16:22 Yeah, I just, I don't know what it is, Jeremiah. But it's like I said, I know they're there. They know I'm there. They haven't bothered me, really that. That's the God's honest truth. They haven't bothered me. There you go. I do hear one knocks.
Starting point is 01:16:38 I do hear sometimes I hear like a howl or a scream, but not often. Same place. Same place. But I'm just sitting there. You know what I'm saying? And I'm hoping they're not coming through here. And you're trying to run down my blind. while I'm in it, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:16:56 But they haven't bothered me. They haven't bothered me. But I haven't seen no deer either. I haven't seen no coyotes. I see a couple squirrels, couple birds. I haven't seen anything. The only time we've seen one doe was like 8 o'clock at night. And that's because I was driving through there
Starting point is 01:17:17 to make sure my blind was all right because it was a windy night the day before. and we went in there about 8 o'clock at night and I've seen one dough so I don't know you know what I mean I don't know if that's nothing
Starting point is 01:17:30 with my hunting because they're in there I don't know you mean I can't say but I haven't seen anything it's definitely it's a developing story for sure and definitely
Starting point is 01:17:42 keep us in the know and the thing is we're moving to Tennessee pretty soon I know I remember you telling me that New Jersey. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:17:52 So, you know, I don't care what happens to New Jersey because I really don't like the state. I like the people. I just don't like the state and I like the government in New Jersey. But I'm not trying to make New Jersey famous because I'm leaving New Jersey. I'm going to eastern Tennessee and that's where I'm going to spend the rest of my life. God willing. I'm not trying to make New Jersey famous, but you know what I'm saying this is what's going on. It's Bigfoot Central down there for sure.
