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
