1 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,439 All right, this is a uh, this is an email I got, 2 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:19,039 and I think this person is confirming a previous story I did. It's a 3 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:24,160 UFO story that I did in uh. It happened in Oklahoma. I don't 4 00:00:24,199 --> 00:00:28,280 remember the story and I don't remember what video it was, but I'm going 5 00:00:28,359 --> 00:00:32,359 to read this account. It's a woman. She doesn't want me to use 6 00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:35,719 your name. But let's find out what she says. Because I haven't read 7 00:00:35,759 --> 00:00:39,520 this, I'm reading it cold. She says, the account you read of 8 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:45,079 the UFO account in Oklahoma from Rusty is one hundred percent true. Now, 9 00:00:45,079 --> 00:00:48,880 if you guys remember what video that was, maybe you can drop a link 10 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,880 in the comments. If you drop, if you put any kind of link 11 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,240 in a comment, it gets kicked oat, kicked over for me to review. 12 00:00:57,799 --> 00:01:00,840 But I look at those all the time, and I delete the ones 13 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,400 that are terrible, you know, the ones that are in review, and 14 00:01:03,439 --> 00:01:07,319 I approve the ones that just kind of get kicked over there by accident. 15 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:14,159 But if this is a link to that video, I'll I'll approve it and 16 00:01:14,239 --> 00:01:17,879 let it go in the comment section. So let's go on with her story. 17 00:01:18,519 --> 00:01:21,719 I was a police officer at the time. I'd rather not say what 18 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,319 department. That night I was on duty, but I was planning on using 19 00:01:26,439 --> 00:01:30,840 a few hours of comp time. As I was headed in, a traffic 20 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,920 officer called the police department advising that it appeared that a jet was in trouble 21 00:01:36,359 --> 00:01:41,920 and to please contact the base. We had previously served as support after one 22 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,280 of the training jets had crashed, so this was not an unusual request. 23 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,879 Everyone was immediately on full alert waiting for confirmation, and a few minutes passed 24 00:01:52,879 --> 00:01:57,719 and I headed toward another area for better observation, and meanwhile, the public 25 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,599 had lit up the phone lines to report them that they were seeing. We 26 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:07,959 watched this ball of light as it descended diagonally toward our city, and suddenly 27 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:14,159 it appeared to stop in midfall, and Dispatch advised east side officers to go 28 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:20,240 to a different radio channel for further instructions. After switching to a different channel, 29 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,280 we were advised to stand by and we watched the light stop and remain 30 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:30,280 stationary before dispatch ordered me to the station to help with the phone traffic. 31 00:02:30,199 --> 00:02:34,759 A few minutes later, when I arrived at the police station, I was 32 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,280 informed by my sergeant that we were on a full alert from the base, 33 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:44,719 and a minute later, the infamous red telephone rang. Now this phone had 34 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,800 never rung before. Everyone always said that it was a hotline to Washington, 35 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,840 d C. And that night we found out that that was true. My 36 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,240 sergeant had a deer in the headlights look on his face as he stared at 37 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:04,520 that phone. The other sergeant answered it and immediately jumped out of his chair 38 00:03:04,599 --> 00:03:08,680 instead of attention. I know that's weird and it's almost comical. But after 39 00:03:08,759 --> 00:03:13,039 several yes, sirs, he hung up and looked at us and he said 40 00:03:13,439 --> 00:03:19,599 it's him. He said that until we know the situation, the base is 41 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,719 in charge. He also said that we were not to speak about this incident. 42 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,000 It was then that the base contacted the police station, advising us that 43 00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:32,560 they had fully armed jets in the air and we were advised that they were 44 00:03:32,599 --> 00:03:38,719 in pursuit of this object. And for the next hour, that craft was 45 00:03:38,759 --> 00:03:45,280 between Kansas City and Houston Airspace and it was going back and forth. No 46 00:03:45,439 --> 00:03:50,639 aircraft on Earth could have covered the distance between Kansas City and Houston in six 47 00:03:50,759 --> 00:03:54,719 minutes flat. It was like a game or something. It would stop until 48 00:03:54,719 --> 00:04:00,840 the jets got closed, and then it would take off again. Radar documented 49 00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:04,840 every bit of this. The lights of the jets looked like ping pong balls 50 00:04:04,919 --> 00:04:11,360 compared to the beach ball sized light of this object. After the incident was 51 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,840 called, everyone was told to stand down. The military in some odd ball 52 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,279 suits showed up for deep briefing. Well, I played it off as if 53 00:04:19,319 --> 00:04:24,680 I didn't see anything. Being a female back then was reason enough for the 54 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:30,480 suits to ignore me. I was told later that the military instructions were don't 55 00:04:30,519 --> 00:04:34,399 acknowledge anything and keep it out of the press. From what I saw, 56 00:04:34,519 --> 00:04:40,519 it appeared that over half of that craft was in shadow. I honestly couldn't 57 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,639 begin to estimate the size. The last time I saw it, it went 58 00:04:44,759 --> 00:04:48,040 straight up and it disappeared in the blink of an eye. Whatever it was, 59 00:04:48,399 --> 00:04:54,639 it wasn't from our world. Okay, okay, this is I love 60 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:59,160 these stories, and I wish I had noticed this email. I bet she 61 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,399 sent it pretty quick after I did the video. But I'm telling you, 62 00:05:02,879 --> 00:05:08,279 and I want to share the video with you, But I do so many 63 00:05:08,319 --> 00:05:12,800 of these that I just can't remember, and it would take hours to find 64 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:17,720 it because it could be it could be in a video where you know Bigfoot 65 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,480 is the main topic of the video, and I dropped this US folk story 66 00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:26,879 in in the middle of it. It would just take forever. But this 67 00:05:27,079 --> 00:05:33,040 is confirmation on citing another writer saw this person was in law enforcement. She 68 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:40,560 was there to witness all the communication between the army base apparently Washington, d 69 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,759 C. When her sergeant said it's him, Who does that mean? Was 70 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,759 that the President? I don't know. I don't know who it's him means, 71 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,759 but they were given strict orders to not talk about it, and I 72 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,399 don't know. Maybe I hope her writing this email to me doesn't get her 73 00:05:57,439 --> 00:06:00,000 in trouble, but she sent it, so I'm gonna share it with you 74 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,600 anyway. I love these flying objects, this UFO stuff. It is so 75 00:06:03,879 --> 00:06:09,319 interesting to me. Honestly, it's a lot more interesting to me than the 76 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:15,720 bigfoot stuff because it's just it's spectacular. Plus there are so many more authentic 77 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:24,240 videos and film and testimonies about these flying objects, and it's and it's becoming 78 00:06:24,399 --> 00:06:30,160 more and more and more common, and more government agencies who probably at one 79 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:35,160 time would keep this stuff quashed or whistle blowers are coming out, Pilots are 80 00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:40,720 coming out saying we don't know what this stuff is it's real interesting stuff and 81 00:06:40,759 --> 00:06:44,839 it I always say I'm gonna dig deeper, and I never do. I 82 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,399 I'm just every time I read one of these stories, I'm thinking, man, 83 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,959 I want to know more about this, so maybe I'll find time to 84 00:06:50,959 --> 00:06:55,079 do that. But this was a wonderful story. And thank you to the 85 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,360 writer for sending it. I'm sorry I didn't get it up almost immediately after 86 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,079 the other video, because I'm sure that's when this came in. Okay, 87 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:10,879 thank you. I hope you guys enjoyed that. Let's go to another one. 88 00:07:11,079 --> 00:07:15,959 This writer doesn't give his name, but he writes a really good story 89 00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:20,240 and he claims this is true. My grandfather had a hunting camp in Texas 90 00:07:20,279 --> 00:07:25,079 that he sometimes took me and my cousin too. I don't want to say 91 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,319 the exact location, but it's near a particular ranch that was famous for being 92 00:07:29,439 --> 00:07:33,959 one in a game of poker. Our property was positioned so we could turn 93 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,439 off the main road and go straight through the gate at the front, and 94 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,720 then down a dirt road to the camp. It was nothing more than a 95 00:07:42,759 --> 00:07:49,120 portable trailer that slept five people comfortably and another trailer that was used for storage. 96 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:54,959 The whole place was surrounded by barb wire. I wasn't too familiar with 97 00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:00,480 the layout of the property, but I could follow the fence lines more of 98 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,360 the last day we planned to hunt. At five am, we were leaving 99 00:08:03,399 --> 00:08:07,319 to go to our deer stands. It was cold and dark, and my 100 00:08:07,399 --> 00:08:13,079 grandfather and my cousin had already left. My four wheel there was so cold 101 00:08:13,079 --> 00:08:16,120 that it wouldn't start no matter how many times I tried, and after five 102 00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:22,079 minutes, I decided it was best to start walking. This was a situation 103 00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:26,120 I was afraid of out here. There was no telling what kind of animals 104 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:31,160 were around. Across the road was a canyon famous for mountain lion sightings. 105 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,399 But I didn't have any choice. It was walk or missed the last day 106 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,799 of deer hunting. So I grabbed my backpack, my three eight my thermos 107 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,320 of coffee, and I headed off to find the fence line. I had 108 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,960 a headlamp that I was using to light my path as I followed the barb 109 00:08:48,039 --> 00:08:52,440 wire fence, and on the right over I had heard my grandfather talking to 110 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,399 his neighbor on the phone about a cow that had disappeared from the herd a 111 00:08:56,399 --> 00:09:00,080 couple of days before. But he said it couldn't have wandered off, but 112 00:09:00,159 --> 00:09:03,919 there was no trace of it anywhere. I was walking down the fence line 113 00:09:03,919 --> 00:09:07,840 when I saw something that made me stop and take a harder look. Fifty 114 00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:11,480 feet on the other side of the fence were the remains of a fully grown 115 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:16,240 cow. It looked like something had been eating on it for a while. 116 00:09:16,279 --> 00:09:20,080 There was a little meat on the ribcage that looked like a pack of coaties 117 00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:24,879 had come up and fed on. But that wasn't what got my attention. 118 00:09:24,759 --> 00:09:28,840 The cow's head was separated from its body. It was lying five or six 119 00:09:28,879 --> 00:09:33,159 feet from the cow, as if something had ripped it off. I stood 120 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,600 there and looked at it for no more than fifteen seconds when something else off 121 00:09:37,639 --> 00:09:41,559 in the distance caught my eye. All the way down the fence line, 122 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,440 it comes to a corner, and at that point there are two red lights 123 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,679 flickering on and off. I thought it may have been some kind of machinery 124 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,919 at first, but the longer I looked at it, the more I began 125 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,639 to realize that it was a pair of red eyes. Nothing I know of 126 00:09:56,759 --> 00:10:01,720 has red eyes like that out here. I chambered a bullet in my rifle 127 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,919 had the stock resting on my shoulder just in case. Those eyes were blinking 128 00:10:07,159 --> 00:10:11,200 and they were looking right at me. I stood there looking back at it 129 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:16,559 until they went out like a candle. I hesitated to approach the spot, 130 00:10:16,639 --> 00:10:18,679 but I had no choice if I wanted to get to my deer stand. 131 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,519 And when I got there, I realized how tall that thing must have been. 132 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,360 I had seen the glint of the barbed wire from where I was standing, 133 00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:31,440 and now that I was close up, I could see that the fence 134 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,759 was four feet tall. The eyes had been two or three feet above that, 135 00:10:35,039 --> 00:10:39,240 So whatever those eyes belonged to had to be between six and seven feet 136 00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:45,039 tall. I was never one to believe in bigfoot, but those measurements had 137 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,080 me questioning my belief. I had to tell my grandfather about the cow, 138 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,159 but I didn't mention the eyes to him. Later that day, we went 139 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,559 over to investigate the cow, and to our surprise, it was gone. 140 00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:01,200 The head was gone, the ribs were on the legs and everything. It 141 00:11:01,279 --> 00:11:05,679 was as if something had picked it up and hauled it off. And for 142 00:11:05,759 --> 00:11:09,759 a minute they thought I might have been telling tales or had a location wrong. 143 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,919 But could a cow that weighed over five hundred pounds have just disappeared. 144 00:11:15,399 --> 00:11:18,759 That night was quiet. It was unusually quiet, and I couldn't stop thinking 145 00:11:18,799 --> 00:11:22,879 about those red eyes. So I laid there and I watched the clock. 146 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,440 At one point thirty, I was still awake. Every time I closed my 147 00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:31,919 eyes, all I saw were those red eyes. And then I heard something 148 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,279 outside the trailer. The trailer had a porch on it, so I could 149 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:41,279 hear footsteps coming up the stairs, and the wood creaked loudly with every step 150 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:45,399 as it made its way to the porch and approached the door. Now my 151 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,519 bed was a rollout couch positioned right in front of that door, and the 152 00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:52,039 green light of the alarm clock lit up the room well enough that I could 153 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,559 see the door. Lying on my back, I watched it in terror as 154 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:03,039 the door handle jostled back and forth just a little. My grandfather and my 155 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,600 cousin were sleeping next to me in the bunk beds, but I was wide 156 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,360 awake, and the handle went from side to side as I watched it, 157 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:16,240 barely able to breathe. At any moment, I expected the door to open 158 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,679 and I would be face to face with a monster that was five feet away 159 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,840 from me. I was already sitting up to grab my rifle that was beside 160 00:12:22,879 --> 00:12:28,000 my bed when the thing outside walked back down the steps and off the porch. 161 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,720 I got up and went over to make sure the door was really locked, 162 00:12:33,039 --> 00:12:39,440 and to my horror, it wasn't. I quickly and quietly locked it, 163 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,960 and I went back to my bed, and I had barely had time 164 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,720 to lie down when I heard the thing come back up the stairs and cross 165 00:12:46,759 --> 00:12:50,720 the porch again. This time it jiggled the door a little more forcefully. 166 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,080 I figured it must have heard me lock it, and that's why it came 167 00:12:54,159 --> 00:13:00,559 back. And then I heard whatever this was walk toward the window near the 168 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:05,200 clock. That was the most terrifying moment of all. I saw a dark 169 00:13:05,279 --> 00:13:09,200 shadow peering in the window, and in the upper part of the window I 170 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:13,720 saw those same two red eyes that I had seen by the fence earlier. 171 00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:18,519 This thing had tracked me all the way back to camp, and it was 172 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,399 looking at me through the window. What's more, this thing really was massive. 173 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,480 I pulled the blanket up until I was under my eyes and I watched 174 00:13:28,519 --> 00:13:33,240 in horrified disbelief. I was actually afraid to move. I was afraid to 175 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,200 wake up my grandfather. I was afraid not to. All I could do 176 00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:41,840 was stare back at the red eyes that were staring at me. After a 177 00:13:41,879 --> 00:13:45,559 few minutes, just like they had done on the fence line, the eyes 178 00:13:45,639 --> 00:13:50,720 went out like a candle, and I never saw them again. Five minutes 179 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,639 of pure terror later, I heard a loud vocalization a half a mile off 180 00:13:54,639 --> 00:13:58,639 in the distance. It was like a loud whistle or a siren, but 181 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:03,159 it was coming from the direction of the woods where the dead cow had been. 182 00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:07,240 The next day, we packed up and left. That had always been 183 00:14:07,279 --> 00:14:11,279 our plan, and I never told my grandfather or my cousin about what happened 184 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:16,480 that night. I didn't want them to think that I was crazy. But 185 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,840 one question has bothered me more than anything. What would it have done to 186 00:14:20,919 --> 00:14:26,159 me if it had gotten in? That's exactly the question I'd be asking, 187 00:14:26,759 --> 00:14:31,320 What if that? What if that thing didn't you said it was? The 188 00:14:31,399 --> 00:14:35,120 door was unlocked when it was jiggling it before. Maybe it didn't quite know 189 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,440 how to turn the doorknob to open a door. I don't know how would 190 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,320 it even know to reach for a door handle. These stories just generate so 191 00:14:43,399 --> 00:14:48,639 many questions in my head. That's right. I would think if it had 192 00:14:48,679 --> 00:14:52,240 gotten in, what would I have been dealing with? Then? Man, 193 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,639 you're I don't I don't even know what to say about this story. There's 194 00:14:56,679 --> 00:15:01,159 just so many things running through my mind that I can't I want to have 195 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,720 to think about this, and by the time I get it sorted out in 196 00:15:03,759 --> 00:15:07,240 my head, I'll already have this podcast up. But anyway, this was 197 00:15:07,279 --> 00:15:11,759 a great story. I loved it. The man claims it's true the red 198 00:15:11,799 --> 00:15:16,159 eyed monster that stalked him from a col carcass all the way back to his 199 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:22,159 cabin and tried to get in the cabin. That's crazy. That's just crazy 200 00:15:22,279 --> 00:15:24,240 scary. But thank you to the writer for sending it. It was a 201 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:35,879 great story. Appreciate you all right. This writer has a YouTube channel called 202 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:41,879 Trailhead Adventures, and they related this story on their channel, just in their 203 00:15:41,919 --> 00:15:45,440 own words. But she's written me the story to share on my channel. 204 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:52,039 I'll put the link for Trailhead Adventures in the description. She says, I'm 205 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:56,200 not sure if this is a Bigfoot experience, but something was happening. I 206 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,720 have a YouTube channel that this experience is on, but my channel is all 207 00:15:58,759 --> 00:16:04,600 about camping and hiking with my family. It's good wholesome activities for the family, 208 00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:10,200 and I hope you guys would enjoy it with your kids. Anyway, 209 00:16:10,279 --> 00:16:14,320 she says, here's what happened to us. My dad and I enjoy hiking 210 00:16:14,399 --> 00:16:18,960 anywhere there is or isn't a trail, so we decided to let Nana watch 211 00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:22,879 my boys, and him and I go up to the mountain. I had 212 00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:26,879 scouted this trail beforehand, so we knew the trail and how far it took 213 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:32,039 to the peak. On this particular day, it started like any other, 214 00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:36,240 warm and the sun beaming on our heads, and there was a general breeze 215 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,240 smacking our back and dry dirt under our boots, and we were ready for 216 00:16:40,279 --> 00:16:44,679 the trail. As always, we always said a prayer before heading out, 217 00:16:44,919 --> 00:16:48,480 making sure all was well, and we had plenty of snacks and a flashlight 218 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:53,080 and a rope and my dad's he's an over preparer sometimes, and we had 219 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:59,559 plenty of liquids. We started the trail excited to escape the many pressures of 220 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,679 life and chores, and we had a wonderful couple of miles, and as 221 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,119 we reached halfway, the clouds were coming in heavy and it looked like it 222 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:12,440 might rain, and rain it did. In fact, it poured. Not 223 00:17:12,519 --> 00:17:17,720 only that, since we were halfway to the top, the clouds just opened 224 00:17:17,759 --> 00:17:22,119 and then it really poured. It was like standing under a waterfall with lightning 225 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:26,160 and thunder all around. We were in a bad spot. There was no 226 00:17:26,279 --> 00:17:30,279 shelter or trees or anything to hide under, so we did the best we 227 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:36,480 could. There were plenty of shrubs that we had to lay low and shelter 228 00:17:36,599 --> 00:17:40,839 in place by, and we put our coats over the tops of our heads. 229 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,720 And this downpour lasted fifteen or twenty minutes. We just had to sit 230 00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:49,839 there and wait. When it was finally done, we stood up because the 231 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:55,119 wind was still pretty strong, pushing us here and there. The clouds still 232 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,640 hung around, but the rain had moved on over the canyons and into the 233 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:03,400 town below. We were finally able to reach the peak, which really wasn't 234 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,000 that large, just a cute little hilltop with nothing on it. So we 235 00:18:07,079 --> 00:18:11,039 climbed around taking the videos and pictures. For whatever reason, and we got 236 00:18:11,079 --> 00:18:17,519 turned around. That has never happened to us before. We were at the 237 00:18:17,559 --> 00:18:21,880 peak walking back down the trail and had a blank moment and my dad looked 238 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,240 at me, and I looked at him, and we were both at a 239 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:29,079 loss for words. He then proceeded to walk back to the peak and make 240 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,079 a slight right turn, saying that we missed the trail on the opposite side. 241 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:37,480 The trail was supposed to make a loop around the peak and then back 242 00:18:37,519 --> 00:18:41,400 down the opposite side. When we made that slight right turn, the path 243 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:47,240 ahead turned into a small thicket on both sides. The thicket was dark and 244 00:18:47,319 --> 00:18:51,799 dreadful looking. Maybe the rains and dark clouds gave it that creepy look, 245 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,880 but I took one look into that place and my happy feeling was gone, 246 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,519 and all the Spidey senses were on high alert to note we're not going in 247 00:19:00,559 --> 00:19:07,319 there. For whatever reason, it was not happening. We then collected our 248 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,680 thoughts and made a left turn off the nose of the hill, and we 249 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:15,240 walked downward, crunching our kneecaps as we went. After twenty minutes, we 250 00:19:15,279 --> 00:19:18,400 finally made it back to the trail where we had to honker down from the 251 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,599 storm, and somehow we had turned around from the loop and made it back 252 00:19:22,599 --> 00:19:26,920 to the front of the peak, not to the back. We both looked 253 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:32,599 at each other. Again confused as to what had just happened. My dad 254 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,680 told me to look down at my feet, and there in the mud was 255 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,039 a five dollar bill, and in the bush next to me was a red 256 00:19:38,079 --> 00:19:41,880 bandana. We were the only ones on that trail that we knew of. 257 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,359 I don't know what the deal was, but I was done. We didn't 258 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,519 pick up the five dollars or even touch the bandana. We just continued on 259 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,000 the trail and headed back towards the car. I would have picked up the 260 00:19:55,039 --> 00:19:59,519 five dollar bill. I'm just kidding. I don't know why that popped out 261 00:19:59,559 --> 00:20:00,880 of my mouth, but I would have picked up that five dollar bill. 262 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,319 I would have left the bandana, But I'm not walking by a five dollar 263 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,240 bill. Now. You can offer it to some you can give it to 264 00:20:08,279 --> 00:20:12,440 somebody on down the trail, but pick that money up anyway. The wind 265 00:20:12,519 --> 00:20:17,359 was still strong, as if pushing us further and further away from the peak, 266 00:20:17,759 --> 00:20:19,960 and after about an hour we had finally made it back to the car. 267 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,119 And it was a good thing too, because the rain was starting to 268 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,880 kick up again. To this day, we have no clue how we had 269 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:33,720 lost the trail and why that creepy feeling set over us. But I'm grateful 270 00:20:33,759 --> 00:20:37,519 to listen to my feelings and I had my dad there with me. I 271 00:20:37,519 --> 00:20:41,079 don't think I want to find out what could have happened if we had chosen 272 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,680 the wrong path. And then she writes, I'm sorry, this is not 273 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,559 what you expected, but it wasn't for me either. I think she's saying 274 00:20:48,599 --> 00:20:52,839 this wasn't like a really crazy Bigfoot story, but there, you know, 275 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,799 there a lot of people have experiences they claim with Bigfoot. Well, they 276 00:20:56,799 --> 00:21:02,799 get confused, they have time loss, all kinds of things happen because they 277 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,680 claim these creatures are around. I don't know how that happens. I don't 278 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,279 have any idea. I've never had any kind of experience like that, so 279 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:15,160 it's hard to relate. But I can relate to the fact that people do 280 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,599 get turned around. And people, you know, they'll even walk up a 281 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,000 mountain and they think they're walking down, but they think they're walking up. 282 00:21:22,039 --> 00:21:23,960 I don't know the four to one one is that right? Is that what 283 00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:30,759 it is? The four eleven one one four for David Pilate's whatever those stories 284 00:21:30,799 --> 00:21:33,519 are called. I think that happens to people with those stories. They get 285 00:21:33,559 --> 00:21:37,359 turned around. And they just start walking, and I don't know, they 286 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,519 wind up on a highway somewhere, you know, in another state. Weird 287 00:21:41,559 --> 00:21:45,720 things happen out in the woods. Who can explain it? This was very 288 00:21:45,759 --> 00:21:49,359 interesting. Go check out her channel, Trailhead Adventures. It is in the 289 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,000 is in the there's a link in the description. Now, my last video, 290 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,359 there were some girls here in Mississippi where I live, who have a 291 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,880 channel. I did a little fifteen second blurb of them then, and I 292 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,400 said I would put their link in the description, but I couldn't find their 293 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:12,039 channel anywhere. Thankfully, about four hours into the video, I was watching 294 00:22:12,079 --> 00:22:17,400 the comments and someone had found it and put the link in the comments. 295 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:22,079 So I grabbed that link added to the description. It was there. I 296 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:26,079 don't think I'm going to have any trouble with Trailhead Adventures, but I'm gonna 297 00:22:26,079 --> 00:22:29,839 look so anyway. If it's not there, it's just because I couldn't find 298 00:22:29,839 --> 00:22:33,200 it. Maybe someone else can find it and let me know what it is. 299 00:22:33,759 --> 00:22:36,480 But take a look at the description and go over there and say hi 300 00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:40,359 to Trailhead Adventures. Okay, right, man, I can ramble on. 301 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:48,000 Let's go to something else. This is a story that's a little bit different. 302 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:53,000 It's not like a person is describing their encounter. But just listen to 303 00:22:53,079 --> 00:23:00,200 the story and tell me if you don't think this is very intriguing. Writer 304 00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:03,119 says Hi Cameron. I have debated relating this to you and just decided that 305 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:07,759 I should just go ahead and share it. I swear it's the truth, 306 00:23:07,799 --> 00:23:11,880 and frankly, I'm surprised at the results. For over thirty years I taught 307 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:18,920 adult education classes to corporations who needed employees to learn software programming, etc. 308 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:26,519 Each seminart would last for a day or two usually and consisted of maybe twelve 309 00:23:26,559 --> 00:23:30,599 students per class, so you got to know the students very well. We 310 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:36,200 would do two breaks and a lunch daily, but sometimes people were tired and 311 00:23:36,319 --> 00:23:41,920 just needed a mental break as they were becoming overwhelmed with the information. I 312 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,400 would call these mental breaks. I would ask crazy questions just to see what 313 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:51,839 people would say. Who has met someone famous? Who is vacationed in Europe? 314 00:23:52,319 --> 00:23:56,359 Who's been hit from behind in a car, who's gone to a Rolling 315 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,759 Stones concert? So one day I just threw this one out, who has 316 00:24:00,839 --> 00:24:04,559 seen a ghost? Well? I expected no one to fess up to that, 317 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:10,720 as coworkers might think that they were crazy or something. Instead, about 318 00:24:10,759 --> 00:24:15,480 one half of this particular class told their ghost stories, and I was shocked. 319 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,160 The ones who had not seen ghosts knew people who claimed to have seen 320 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:23,960 one or more. Anyway, I became curious, and I started asking the 321 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:29,519 ghost questions in about every classroom. I would warn them that I had some 322 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,839 fun questions during the day, and a few weird questions as well. They 323 00:24:33,839 --> 00:24:37,759 were more than willing to share their experiences, and I would guess that all 324 00:24:37,799 --> 00:24:44,279 of my students, and we were talking thousands of students, about one third 325 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:49,160 had had experiences with ghosts. Later, I started throwing in who has seen 326 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:53,880 a bigfoot? And at that question I would get laughs. But I did 327 00:24:55,079 --> 00:24:59,319 end up with four students who swore they had crossed paths with a bigfoot. 328 00:25:00,039 --> 00:25:03,759 And then I found out that our office manager had come face to face with 329 00:25:03,839 --> 00:25:07,400 one. And Idaho when she was twelve years old. She was out at 330 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:12,279 night running around the weekend getaway cabin with her siblings and they came face to 331 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:18,480 face. She said that this thing smelled awful, it was a reddish brown 332 00:25:18,559 --> 00:25:22,759 color, and was a he, and that he was just as shocked to 333 00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:26,200 see them as they were to see him. They ran, and the creature 334 00:25:26,319 --> 00:25:30,519 ran beside them, with trees and limbs as a divider between them. And 335 00:25:30,599 --> 00:25:36,000 the next day they went back with their parents and found thick branches broken on 336 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:41,400 the side the bigfoot was running on. For my students, the bigfoot sightings 337 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,960 were always in the woods, and even though these people said they were scared 338 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,400 to death, no harm came to any of them. The creatures would just 339 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,319 walk away and disappear. And then he goes on to write, yes, 340 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,960 you can use this story if you wish on your podcast. Personally, I 341 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,920 have not seen a bigfoot, and I may have seen at once, but 342 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,119 it was a quick flash in the corner of my eye. Again, all 343 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:08,079 of the above is the absolute truth, and if you have any questions, 344 00:26:08,279 --> 00:26:12,559 please feel free to reach out. I love your podcast and never thought I 345 00:26:12,599 --> 00:26:15,599 would relate any of this, but now I feel like it's the right thing 346 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:22,200 to do. Best regards, and he signs the email. That's interesting, 347 00:26:22,319 --> 00:26:26,680 people, That's why I do this channel. I mean, it wasn't the 348 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,359 plan to begin with. I just wanted to do something on YouTube, and 349 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,519 you know, I wasn't good. I'm never good at putting the camera on 350 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:40,720 myself. I thought I loved these stories. My grandkids love these stories, 351 00:26:40,799 --> 00:26:44,880 and so I just thought I'd give it a whirl and come to find out, 352 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,519 people all over the world have I mean just regular people, regular people, 353 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:55,400 you know, just average people like me. They just have strange experiences 354 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,079 and they have really no one to tell them to. I mean, they 355 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,599 can tell them to their friends, they can tell them to their brothers and 356 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:07,920 family members, whatever, and they usually get laughed at. But it really 357 00:27:07,039 --> 00:27:12,720 is amazing how many people have these weird stories, and this is just a 358 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:17,799 good place to share them with You's we just stay in our lane. We 359 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:22,200 just tell weird stories. And these are real, actual stories that people send 360 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:26,039 to me. And we do edit a few just to make them more legible 361 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:32,000 because some people aren't great writers. And that's fine. Didn't I read this 362 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:37,119 word for word. It needed no editing. This man can obviously put sentences 363 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:45,119 together and thoughts onto papers, so it made perfect sense. Anyway. I 364 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,799 thought this was intriguing because it kind of clicks with my channel because I'm looking 365 00:27:49,839 --> 00:27:56,000 in my inbox and I've got over eighteen hundred emails in my inbox that I 366 00:27:56,079 --> 00:27:59,920 haven't even opened yet. And I get to two or three, maybe four 367 00:28:00,079 --> 00:28:03,720 in every podcast, and I'm gonna do my best to get to every single 368 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:08,839 email. If you've sent a story and I just can't make heads or tails 369 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,880 of it, sometimes I delete those. Believe me, some of them are 370 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:18,680 really they're just they're just illegible. I can't understand what's going on at all. 371 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,680 And some of them, if they're not that bad, I edit them. 372 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,759 Neoma edit some. Trust me. If I read them just like people 373 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:33,440 send them, very about twenty percent of them, you would have no clue 374 00:28:33,559 --> 00:28:38,039 what's going on in these stories. So I try to make them enjoyable and 375 00:28:38,079 --> 00:28:41,559 readable. I don't know, I guess I'm saying this for the newer people. 376 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,000 That's what this channel's all about. We just are over here in our 377 00:28:45,039 --> 00:28:51,640 little corner having fun, telling these cool stories for your entertainment. We're not 378 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:56,279 here to help people. We're not here to get people therapy. You've if 379 00:28:56,319 --> 00:29:03,279 you've had trauma with some kind of weird experiences, experience with a bigfoot or 380 00:29:03,319 --> 00:29:08,319 a ghost or a UFO, you don't need to rely on a YouTube creator 381 00:29:08,799 --> 00:29:12,440 for your therapy. You need to go see a therapist. That is not 382 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:18,640 what we do. We just share these stories for your entertainment. If it 383 00:29:18,759 --> 00:29:22,400 helps the person get it off their chest, that's a that is a great 384 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,599 little bit of icing on the cake. But I've never claimed to do that. 385 00:29:26,799 --> 00:29:30,160 I don't want to do that. I don't want to give anybody any 386 00:29:30,319 --> 00:29:37,720 kind of false hope that I can help them in any way emotionally or mentally 387 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,680 with some bad experiences you've had. If you don't want to send your story 388 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,880 because of what I just said, don't do that. Just don't send it. 389 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,720 It's for me. This is all fun for some people who send these 390 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:56,319 in. Send these stories in. I know it's it's quite for some people. 391 00:29:56,359 --> 00:30:00,440 It's therapeutic. For most people, it's a lot of fun to rewrite 392 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,759 these and send them in and listen to them read back, knowing that you 393 00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:08,920 know, maybe ten or fifteen thousand people heard their story. You can write 394 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:14,839 in anonymously. Nobody has to know your name or where you're from or anything 395 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,759 like that. Haven't talked about this in a while. This letter, kind 396 00:30:18,759 --> 00:30:22,559 of, I don't know, got me thinking a little bit about exactly why 397 00:30:22,599 --> 00:30:29,559 I do this and what I do here. So that there's just a ton 398 00:30:29,599 --> 00:30:33,119 of new people following along and I just thought i'd let you know this channel's 399 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:38,160 just for fun. It's for entertainment, so enjoy it. And I guess 400 00:30:38,319 --> 00:30:42,400 that's all I wanted to say, just rambling on as usual. All Right, 401 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:47,480 that's going to be the last story in this podcast. I really appreciate 402 00:30:47,519 --> 00:30:53,079 you guys clicking on this video or clicking on the podcast in whatever podcast app 403 00:30:53,079 --> 00:30:57,559 you're using, because I'm so thankful for the people who listen and enjoy this, 404 00:30:59,039 --> 00:31:03,920 especially the people who leave great comments. And even you know, there's 405 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:10,480 only about ten percent of people, probably less, who actually make comments in 406 00:31:10,519 --> 00:31:15,559 the comment section, so thanks to all the people who never comment. You're 407 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,799 so appreciated. If there was a way that I could make you feel that, 408 00:31:19,079 --> 00:31:22,480 I would, but you're just going to have to listen to my voice 409 00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:27,519 and know that I'm truly, truly thankful for the people who listen and keep 410 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:34,640 this storytelling experience in the spirit that it is intended, and that is for 411 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:40,880 fun. It's just for fun. So thanks again. I hope to see 412 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,200 you guys on the next podcast. They'll be one up pretty soon. I 413 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,160 appreciate you and we'll see on the next one. Thanks
