1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,080 So this was in Colorado. I was like, Oh, the Great Dunes 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:06,519 are here, so I'm gonna I'm gonna head down there at night. Everything 3 00:00:06,599 --> 00:00:09,960 kind of happened when I when I write, it was pretty late, but 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,560 the Welcoming Center was empty and nobody was there. It was just vacant. 5 00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:21,399 It's just me right behind my ear, like squeaking almost and also like shuffling. 6 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:27,519 I turned around and it's just this figure and it's like slowly moving towards 7 00:00:27,559 --> 00:00:30,519 me, and I can still hear the shuffling and like the squeaking. What 8 00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:36,119 frightened me was that, you know, human instinct is interesting where you can 9 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:40,359 just kind of instantly know what something is. This was where I couldn't. 10 00:00:41,119 --> 00:01:18,719 I couldn't figure out what I was looking at. Aiden. Thanks for joining 11 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,040 me on Bigfoot Crossroads. Man. How are you? I'm good, I'm 12 00:01:22,079 --> 00:01:26,079 good. How are you doing? Pretty good? Man? So you're from 13 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:32,159 Georgia now, but you're originally from California. Yeah. So I moved like 14 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:38,319 three years ago, almost four at this point, to follow my job in 15 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,560 the film industry and doing more creative stuff like photography and all that fun stuff, 16 00:01:42,599 --> 00:01:47,120 and Georgia was the place to do it. Pretty much. And my 17 00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:52,200 family had moved a year prior and so I ended up following them. And 18 00:01:52,239 --> 00:01:57,560 photography is pretty much what led you to your experiences that you contacted me about. 19 00:01:57,439 --> 00:02:02,760 Yeah, it did. It was wild because the whole trip so basically 20 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:08,599 what I was moving from from California to Georgia. I decided that I was 21 00:02:08,719 --> 00:02:13,159 going to drive the whole way because I didn't really want to pay for shipping 22 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,520 or do anything like that. With all my stuff. I didn't have like 23 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,599 too much, and I had a truck at the time, and I just 24 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,400 packed everything in and I was like, you know what, I'm going to 25 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,520 drive the whole way, going to stop us some interesting location. That didn't 26 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,719 get to all of them. I got to some and you know, take 27 00:02:30,759 --> 00:02:38,680 photos and see what I could pretty much capture. And that's on one of 28 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:44,800 the ventures. That's what led me to an interesting encounter. I guess you 29 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,639 could say, was I honestly like to this day, even though I sent 30 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,919 you like the email and you read it, I have no idea what it 31 00:02:52,319 --> 00:02:58,240 is. So where were you exactly when this happened. So this was in 32 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,159 Colorado, I believe in the Great Dunes, like right beneath it like the 33 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:07,599 edge part of Colorado, believe that's where it is. And the night before 34 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:17,280 I was like, I hadn't been sleeping in general, but then I had 35 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:23,439 stopped that day in Colorado one of my friends and slept at his place for 36 00:03:23,479 --> 00:03:28,120 a bit and then decided to continue my journey to Georgia. But I was 37 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,919 like, oh, the Great Dunes are here, so I'm gonna I'm gonna 38 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,439 head down there at night, and since it'll be clear, I'm going to 39 00:03:34,479 --> 00:03:37,360 take a picture of like the sand dunes and the stars. And I'm like, 40 00:03:37,439 --> 00:03:39,680 really really beautiful and I could be a great shot. And I still 41 00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:46,199 got the photo. But everything kind of happened when I when I arrived at 42 00:03:46,199 --> 00:03:52,000 the Welcoming Center outside the Great Dunes, That's that's where everything happened. What 43 00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:55,120 time of night was it whenever you got there, I believe it was two 44 00:03:55,159 --> 00:04:00,800 am, so it was it was pretty late. And at this point most 45 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:05,080 of the people who were camping in the place like would have already been asleep, 46 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:10,759 right. There were some people like later on that I found, but 47 00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:15,680 the Welcoming Center was empty and nobody was there. It was just vacant, 48 00:04:15,959 --> 00:04:20,639 and there's like some street lights whatever lamps are up at the welcoming parking lot 49 00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:26,680 is where I was, and that's there's like a very you know, that 50 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:31,800 orange what's it called that type of light, But that's that's what time it 51 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,560 happened at, Like around two am is what I'm guessing, because I remember 52 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:41,040 I drove the rest of the night into the morning to get to Oklahoma after 53 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,519 the encounter, so it was like two am. The parking lot's completely empty 54 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:53,040 other than you correct, Yeah, it's just me, and it was. 55 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,680 It was weird because pulling up, I didn't expect anything, and I also 56 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,040 had never been there before, so in my mind I was like, oh, 57 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,279 the welcoming centers here. I'm guessing the Great Dunes are right behind it, 58 00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:10,600 right. They're not, I found out later. But I drive up 59 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,160 and I stirtle the parking lot and I'm like, oh, maybe there's a 60 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,800 ranger I could talk to, you know, some human, and there wasn't. 61 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,759 And I was like, all right, I was gonna park here, 62 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:24,519 I'm gonna get my camera out. And because of where I'm at, those 63 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,759 are the only the lights are up and the stars are out, but it's 64 00:05:29,399 --> 00:05:33,040 sand and that doesn't really reflect starlight too much. Because there's no moon this 65 00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:41,399 night, and it's pitch black. Right behind the Welcoming Center. There's like 66 00:05:41,639 --> 00:05:44,920 you can't see anything at all. And I'm like, all right, well, 67 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,519 maybe I can set my shutter speed, lead the you know, lead 68 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,759 the shutter open for a few seconds, like thirty seconds, ten seconds, 69 00:05:51,759 --> 00:05:58,519 and see what I can get. And so I park on the front left 70 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,399 side of the welcoming Center, you know, for this part where there's like 71 00:06:01,439 --> 00:06:06,800 this brown like this wooden log fence and then you can hop over the fence 72 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,800 and there's bushes and stuff. So I parked on the on the far left 73 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,000 side, and I leave the car. I turned the car off, I 74 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,120 leave the lights on, and I opened the open my door. I get 75 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,439 out to the left hand and side, and I have my tripod and my 76 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:25,600 camera with me if anybody's curious, I have the Sony A seven three at 77 00:06:25,639 --> 00:06:29,920 the time. And I get out and I'm like, all right, we're 78 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,680 gonna take a picture. This would be fun. And I sat up, 79 00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:35,839 I set my tray pot up, I get everything situated. I set my 80 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,399 shutter of speed. I'm like, all right, cool, let's take the 81 00:06:39,439 --> 00:06:45,240 picture. See what I can find. And then all of a sudden right 82 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:50,959 behind my hear like squeaking almost and also like shuffling of shoes. It could 83 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:56,759 have been on gravel, and I wasn't scared yet or anything. I was 84 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,720 like, Oh, the rangers here, cool, because of course it's it's 85 00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:03,439 a national park, and I expect her to be like a ranger or somebody 86 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,399 just like, right, you're at the welcoming center. Yeah, like you 87 00:07:08,439 --> 00:07:12,319 know someone should be here, and uh, all right cool. When he 88 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:18,720 say hid this guy? I turn around and I'd say around like fifty feet 89 00:07:19,079 --> 00:07:23,839 past my truck. And it's an F one fifty, so you know, 90 00:07:23,879 --> 00:07:27,000 it's tall, it's not lifted or anything, it's less like normal stock. 91 00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:33,839 It's right behind my my truck on the opposite side. So since I'm parked 92 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:39,639 parallel in the parking lot, it's on the passenger side. Lie right past 93 00:07:39,639 --> 00:07:45,000 the passenger side, uh, back part of it, and it's just this 94 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,920 figure and it's like slowly moving towards me, and I can still hear the 95 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:54,879 shuffling and like this squeaking. But what frightened me the like what frightened me 96 00:07:55,279 --> 00:08:00,720 was that, you you know, human instinct is interesting where you can just 97 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:07,079 kind of instantly know what something is right? This was where I couldn't, 98 00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:11,600 you know, I couldn't figure out what I was looking at. And it 99 00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:18,759 looks it looked to me as if a gray dark like very dark gray tracksuit, 100 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:24,279 like some of them were running, almost like the Adidas the ones where 101 00:08:24,319 --> 00:08:28,639 add like those stripes on it, except it was only one stripe and the 102 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:35,960 stripe was a silver like a silver lining almost around the body. And I 103 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,720 couldn't see the legs. It was like right past the truck, so I 104 00:08:37,799 --> 00:08:43,519 didn't really see if it had feet or whatever it was, but the silver 105 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,919 lining kind of just showed like the outline of the body, and it was 106 00:08:46,919 --> 00:08:52,399 wearing a hood. It was like just a silver hood and no base. 107 00:08:54,320 --> 00:09:00,320 And I was like, what am I what is I Like? I was 108 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,279 just I was, and it was in shock pretty much because I don't I 109 00:09:03,279 --> 00:09:07,360 don't know that is it doesn't look like anything familiar, And in the back 110 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,080 of my mind, I was like, maybe it's a person. But then 111 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,519 it kept moving towards me, and it was really tall. It was taller 112 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:18,320 than like the top of my truck, and so I don't know what to 113 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,679 do, and I'm just like also just panicking and like this feeling inside me 114 00:09:22,879 --> 00:09:26,600 was like I have to I'm gonna throw up. I feel sick. I 115 00:09:26,639 --> 00:09:31,080 don't know what this is, and I'm like scared, and I've never felt 116 00:09:31,159 --> 00:09:35,320 that way before, but this was new, and I was like, I 117 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:41,240 don't like this. I don't like this at all. And so what I 118 00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:46,919 ended up doing was I grabbed my camera in my trypod and I just I 119 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:52,399 just moved normal speed. I in my mind, I was acting as if 120 00:09:52,519 --> 00:09:56,399 I didn't see this person or whatever this thing was. I was just gonna 121 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,320 like, I'm sitting, you know, I'm getting to my truck. If 122 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,799 it is a ranger, I hope, I really hope it is. I 123 00:10:01,799 --> 00:10:07,200 hope it's something that I know it'll come up to the side of my truck 124 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,440 window and maybe talk to me or something. But I can see what it 125 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,120 is first, you know, before it gets to that point. And so 126 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:18,159 I grab my truck out of my camera and I walked to the left side 127 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,320 so that as I moved towards my truck, I just don't see it anymore 128 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,159 because I don't really want to look at it because my eyes were just more 129 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,279 glued than I couldn't really move from looking at it unless my body was moving 130 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,919 because I was like, I need to know where it is. I need 131 00:10:31,919 --> 00:10:37,360 to know what's going on here. I was like, yo, I don't 132 00:10:37,399 --> 00:10:41,840 know, and so I grab myself and I just get in my truck. 133 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,919 And the keys are in the cognition right because I left it on. I 134 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,279 left the lights on, so I just left the key and you know, 135 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,759 no one's there and the door has already opened, so I just get in. 136 00:10:50,879 --> 00:10:54,679 I just slammed the door and I turned the truck on immediately, like, 137 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,559 I throw my camera in the passenger's side seat, and I don't even 138 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,679 look out that side because I'm like, I don't want it. I don't 139 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:05,200 want to look at the pastor's side if it's just staring at me. And 140 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,039 so I turned the truck on. And in my mind, at this point, 141 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,559 it should have been right behind the truck, so if I looked in 142 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,639 the rear view mirror, it should be there, and so I didn't. 143 00:11:18,639 --> 00:11:20,960 I was like, I'm just not gonna I'm just gonna look at my steering 144 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,559 wheel and maybe if it's a person, it'll come next to the window and 145 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,200 it'll knock on it first before I have to, you know, it'll give 146 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,600 me like Okay, now it's now I know what it is, right, 147 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,200 And so I don't look and I wait. I honestly don't know how long 148 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,919 I waited. It was probably only a few seconds. It felt like a 149 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:43,279 longer. But when you're in situations that you know your adrenaline going you, 150 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:48,480 you don't really you kind of lose track of time. Right. So I'm 151 00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:50,000 sitting there and I'm like, I'm trying to just erect my brain. I'm 152 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,919 like, what am I supposed to do here? Because I don't know what 153 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,759 it is? And I don't really want to find out what it is if 154 00:11:54,799 --> 00:12:00,639 I don't know what it is. And I eventually I'm just like, all 155 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,399 right, I'm gonna I'm gonna look at the rear room mirror. If it's 156 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,679 there, then I can see it. And if it's not, I'm gonna 157 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:11,679 look outside my my window on my left hand side, striver's side or end 158 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:16,240 the mirror first and then look see if it's there. And I look at 159 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,480 the rear room mirror and I'm nothing there, all right, And then I'm 160 00:12:18,519 --> 00:12:22,679 like half expecting it to like jump scare me and just like push, you 161 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,000 know, go like slam its space against the window. I'm like, it's 162 00:12:26,039 --> 00:12:28,759 gonna jump. It's like something's gonna happen here. And I was like with 163 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,399 my heart and I could like hear it, and like like everything inside me 164 00:12:33,519 --> 00:12:37,759 was just like screaming, except I'm you know, I'm not saying anything, 165 00:12:37,799 --> 00:12:41,200 and I'm just like silent. I'm like, what am I doing? So 166 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:46,679 I'm expecting that to happen. I look over and nothing's there. Yeah, 167 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:52,559 I look outside the window. After I looked outside the side mirror and nothing's 168 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,960 there. And I'm like, yeah, alright, where could this thing be. 169 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,000 So I'm like outside the passer sign, nothing there either. And I 170 00:13:01,039 --> 00:13:03,039 was like, well, if it's behind me, I'm just going to hit 171 00:13:03,039 --> 00:13:07,320 it too bad. And so I just put the truck in reverse and I 172 00:13:07,399 --> 00:13:11,720 just like hit the gas and reverse and turn. I turned the wheel to 173 00:13:11,799 --> 00:13:18,320 the right side, so I turned my back comes out right and I don't 174 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,440 hit anything. I'm like, all right, I don't know what that is. 175 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,840 Then, and I put the car and drive and I turned my high 176 00:13:22,879 --> 00:13:30,679 beams on and I just like do a circle around the parking lot and no 177 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:37,440 one's there and nothing was ever was ever there as far as I know, 178 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,879 But that's where it ends, I make a circle. I don't I see 179 00:13:41,919 --> 00:13:45,559 nothing like there was There was no car, there was no lights on inside 180 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,279 the building. There was no like, I don't know, golf cart, 181 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,240 I guess, or like a ranger car. There's there's nothing. It was 182 00:13:50,279 --> 00:13:54,440 literally just the same as I had arrived, except for that whatever that thing 183 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,879 was and me. It was just me, and so I do the circle 184 00:13:58,919 --> 00:14:03,320 around the parking lot and then ended up. I didn't I didn't want to 185 00:14:03,399 --> 00:14:07,240 drive back the way I came yet through the entrance because the entrance is kind 186 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:13,039 of along. It's a long dark road of just desert and trees and bushes. 187 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:18,399 So just I was like, I'm going to go further into the park 188 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,759 instead and go to where it says campsite and hopefully I can find like some 189 00:14:22,799 --> 00:14:26,600 people, because I kind of need people at this moment. I don't care 190 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,080 context, yeah, because I'm like, I don't I don't know, I 191 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,639 don't know what's going on, and I didn't know what to even think about 192 00:14:35,679 --> 00:14:39,000 it, and so I'm like, I need something that I know is real, 193 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,879 so I know I'm not tripping out. And so I turned left instead 194 00:14:43,879 --> 00:14:46,360 of going right, and I go further into the park, and that's when 195 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:54,879 the whole situation ends. But thinking back and uh, you know, reviewing 196 00:14:54,879 --> 00:14:58,120 it, in my mind, it's just the same thing over and over. 197 00:14:58,679 --> 00:15:05,600 It's the way I felt. It's seeing nothing inside the face area and seeing 198 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:11,080 this silver jumpsuit looking thing right behind my trug. And I'm not want like 199 00:15:11,159 --> 00:15:16,399 I'm personally, I don't always believe in the paranormal. I know it's there. 200 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,000 I know it's just if it does, right, But I'm not like 201 00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:26,000 looking for an excuse to have a story about something right right. Never, 202 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,279 Yeah, I never, I can never have that. I'm like, if 203 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,799 it happens, great, cool, if something, if you know, if 204 00:15:31,799 --> 00:15:35,360 I see bigfoot in the horse, if I see something, if whatever happens, 205 00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:41,080 I'm like open, but I'm not looking. And that's what like frightened 206 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:46,000 me. I think mostly was that I wasn't like ready for this situation to 207 00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:48,320 happen. It wasn't like prepared. I wasn't thinking about it. It was 208 00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:52,639 just it just happened. You weren't looking, but it found you. Yeah, 209 00:15:52,799 --> 00:15:58,480 exactly. Yeah, And I have no explanation still to like what I 210 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:03,000 could have been seeing or saw or and conored I can go further into the 211 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,120 night of like what happened, but I mean, nothing else happened. I 212 00:16:07,159 --> 00:16:10,559 found the Great Dunes, took the picture. There were some people around camping. 213 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,480 My eye kept running, you know, swerving back to the welcoming Center 214 00:16:14,519 --> 00:16:19,720 where I had just been like some some ways away across the dunes, you 215 00:16:19,759 --> 00:16:23,720 know, because the lights are on. I like the lamps, and you 216 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,360 know, I was always occasionally look back and see if anybody was there. 217 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,440 Nobody was over there, but took the picture, stayed there for like an 218 00:16:30,519 --> 00:16:37,159 hour, and ended up driving through the night to Oklahoma because I was like, 219 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:44,240 I'm not stopping when it's dark, thank you, I'm not doing that. 220 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:49,559 So okay, question time, You're parked in this parking lot area at 221 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:55,480 the welcome center. Yep. How large of a parking lot is it? 222 00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:59,440 Is it? Is it a big parking lot or small? I'd say it 223 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:04,720 has like one to three four lanes with a center median. So you got 224 00:17:04,759 --> 00:17:08,119 the front one, the front lane of cars, Like maybe it can fit 225 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:14,319 like fifteen cars. I'd say, I'm sure that people could like find pictures 226 00:17:14,319 --> 00:17:17,279 of it on Google if they wanted to see it. Oh yeah, I 227 00:17:17,319 --> 00:17:18,680 mean I could pull it up right now and tell you exactly how my there 228 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,480 are, but I'm off the top of my head. The front, you 229 00:17:22,519 --> 00:17:26,880 know, fifteen fifteen fifteen, maybe like ten at the at the back is 230 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:32,039 it kind of it's almost like an oval looking shape. It's not. It's 231 00:17:32,079 --> 00:17:33,880 like a fairly it's like as big as it's a little bit bigger than like 232 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,640 the Welcoming Center. The Welcoming Center isn't that big. It's like it's one 233 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:44,400 story and it's like maybe five rooms across, I'd say, so it's like 234 00:17:44,519 --> 00:17:47,920 not that big. And then like the parking lot kind of wraps like in 235 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,880 an oval in front of it, and then has the entrance to go out 236 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,160 to the exit and then into the park pretty much. And then are there 237 00:17:55,200 --> 00:18:00,440 like trees and stuff lining the outside of the parking lot or what so the 238 00:18:00,519 --> 00:18:07,279 outside on the right side, I believe there's like some giant bushes. It's 239 00:18:07,319 --> 00:18:10,799 the deserts. There's not like too many trees. I know. The middle 240 00:18:11,519 --> 00:18:15,279 median has like some small bushes, like little brush and like grass looking things. 241 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:21,319 And then where I was there was grass, like the brown grass kind 242 00:18:21,319 --> 00:18:29,079 of like the tall on the tall graph. And then the log fence that's 243 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,000 like two logs high. I'd say, you know, it's not that big. 244 00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:34,960 It's kind of like it's like the fence for aesthetic, but it doesn't 245 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,279 actually act as a fence, right, Yeah, And whenever you first saw 246 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,400 this thing, how far away from your truck would you guess it was from 247 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:51,039 my truck? I thought it was around fifty feet. I'm guessing it was 248 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:55,720 just past my truck, like maybe three car lengths. And how far were 249 00:18:55,839 --> 00:18:59,559 you on the opposite side of the truck. I was like probably one car 250 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,480 lengthy, one to two crawlings the way, pretty close, pretty close to 251 00:19:03,519 --> 00:19:06,519 the point where I was like, I knew I was going to be it 252 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:11,559 to my truck if I just started moving right away. That's what I did. 253 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,880 So I wasn't. I wasn't fun. So the lights are on and 254 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,000 everything, so I know, you say it didn't have a face, but 255 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,839 like you got a pretty good look at this thing and the lights, I 256 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:29,160 assume, yeah, kind of right, so it didn't. It looked like 257 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:34,400 it was hitting a light, you know how like biker vests have a reflective 258 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,680 river on them. Yeah, and when it's not being reflected, it kind 259 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:44,839 of looked gray but kind of sparkly. Yeah, that's what those lighting looks 260 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,119 like. It wasn't glowing, but it looked reflective, so the lights weren't 261 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:55,119 even like there, I'm guessing like there was no light hitting it, although 262 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,480 on the right side of it, if you know, I could see it 263 00:19:56,559 --> 00:20:04,359 obviously, so I'm assuming there was some light from the lamps out there. 264 00:20:04,599 --> 00:20:10,160 But it was like it wasn't like it wasn't illuminated because it's still dark. 265 00:20:10,279 --> 00:20:14,160 You look around and everything's pitch black, and it's like not that much brighter 266 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,880 in the parking lot because there's like two lamps up right. So it was 267 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,440 like that where it was like, oh, here it is, but you 268 00:20:22,559 --> 00:20:27,799 can't really you can't really see it too much. It just looked like a 269 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:33,160 figure human. It looks humanoid ish, right because it has like arms and 270 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,079 a body and a hood, but then no faith in the middle of it. 271 00:20:37,799 --> 00:20:41,200 And that's it was like, you just it looks like a void, 272 00:20:41,759 --> 00:20:48,640 but it looks like the surrounding area. It just looks pitch black. What 273 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,440 did the suit look like? I mean, I know, you dark in 274 00:20:52,519 --> 00:20:56,440 color, like a track suit, but typically I mean clothes have like zippers 275 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:02,640 and labels and things like that. Did you notice anything, No, labels, 276 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:07,759 no zippers. It just looked it looked maybe it could have had like 277 00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:15,400 a zip up hoodie is what it may have looked like, judging by how 278 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:21,079 like the whole body frame of it was. But I didn't see arms swinging, 279 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,359 so I didn't see hands. I just saw the figure moving towards me, 280 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,200 like almost as if it was like not floating, but like I could 281 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:33,480 see it was moving, and it was just it was just gray. I 282 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,240 could see like the where it's arms were next to it. You could see 283 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,519 it like it had arms. It looks like it was wearing like almost like 284 00:21:40,559 --> 00:21:45,119 a hoodie. There's no face inside. It was just just pitch black, 285 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,799 and it was tall, and it was tall, and so it was like 286 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,319 just moving towards me. And you know, however long I looked at it, 287 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,200 I then made a decision to just move because I was like, I 288 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,440 don't know what I'm looking at, and I'm not just gonna stand here and 289 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,119 wait for it to catch up to me, because it was moving towards me. 290 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,200 I mean, you mentioned, you know earlier, about how the human 291 00:22:07,279 --> 00:22:14,920 mind recognizes things just instantly whenever we see them, and how one of the 292 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,920 most frightening aspects was your mind not being able to understand, like what am 293 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:25,319 I looking at? I would think that, let's just say, it's a 294 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,440 tall guy in a tracksuit and his face is kind of shadowed because he's got 295 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,839 his hood up. Yeah, I would assume that your brain would register that 296 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,319 as being exactly that. Yeah. I would have been like, oh, 297 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,799 it's a human walking to Yeah, it's a tall guy in the tracksuit. 298 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,440 Yeah, because I mean that's where my brain immediately went to describe it, 299 00:22:44,559 --> 00:22:51,200 right, And that's how I've described it till what was it Like last year 300 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:52,880 over the summer, I went camping and they're like, you have any stories, 301 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,720 and I was like, well, I have one there, you know, 302 00:22:56,799 --> 00:23:00,720 that's my story. To describe it, I need to tracks you because 303 00:23:00,759 --> 00:23:06,160 it was great with a silver you know, slightly left silver outline of it. 304 00:23:06,519 --> 00:23:10,200 But it was just tall and moving towards me. And it wasn't acting 305 00:23:11,839 --> 00:23:14,839 like a human would have acted, you know, because if I'm in that 306 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,480 situation and I'm the person, I'm like, hey, yea, yeah, 307 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,720 I would have said something and not just disappeared at two am, especially at 308 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:29,680 you know two am isolated parking lot, Yeah, where no one's at some 309 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,400 guy pulls up in a truck and gets out with the camera and stuff. 310 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,519 I mean, yeah, I mean that's what you know. My first instinct 311 00:23:34,559 --> 00:23:38,119 would have been, if it's a person, they're probably interested in what I'm 312 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:42,880 doing, yeah, taking a picture. But it didn't do anything. It 313 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:48,799 just kept walking or moving towards the truck, towards me, as if it's 314 00:23:48,839 --> 00:23:52,160 going to like come around the truck and then come towards me. But I 315 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,920 was like, I'm not gonna sit around for that to happen because I don't 316 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,519 know what I'm even looking at. So I know you have no way of 317 00:23:57,559 --> 00:24:03,200 knowing this, but in your estimation, you get in your truck, you're 318 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:08,640 looking around kind of wanting to see it, but not wanting to see it. 319 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,920 Yeah, I mean, did it have time to get out of there 320 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,759 and go hide somewhere or get out of you from you could? Is that 321 00:24:15,799 --> 00:24:22,359 a possibility? So the bushes and trees are really small. It's like there's 322 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,720 like a one giant bush, but it's like branches. It's like those branch 323 00:24:26,759 --> 00:24:29,880 bushes. So I would have seen it and I would have heard it too, 324 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,359 like shuffle a a if it was a person and you can't escape headlights. 325 00:24:34,519 --> 00:24:38,000 I would assume, Yeah, I can't escape headlights and the lights are 326 00:24:38,079 --> 00:24:42,680 on in the truck. It's not like I didn't have It wasn't like pitch 327 00:24:42,759 --> 00:24:47,079 black everywhere. It was just these two lights in the parking lot and then 328 00:24:47,319 --> 00:24:52,640 my truck lights. And around where I am because I'm on the far left 329 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,559 side, there's just bushes, and then the front of the building which kind 330 00:24:56,599 --> 00:25:02,880 of wraps around like wraps around the part of the front part of the parking 331 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,240 lot, and then behind like you know, a way past the building are 332 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,119 like just like some trees and bushes and just like pitch blackness into like the 333 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,079 night. But it wouldn't have to go past you to get to that, 334 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,400 like into the headlights or whatever. Yeah, it would have to it would 335 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,440 either have to run past me or it would have had to just run straight 336 00:25:25,519 --> 00:25:29,079 back where it came from on the right side of the truck. And you 337 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,039 know, but like across the whole parking lot to hide behind a bush that 338 00:25:33,079 --> 00:25:38,359 it couldn't hide behind that you really couldn't hide behind with that tall And yeah, 339 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:45,400 so I mean I don't personally, I just don't see that being a 340 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,039 liable option, only because like there wasn't much around. It's kind of like 341 00:25:49,079 --> 00:25:56,720 it's flatsh with like a couple of trees around the area. But it's not 342 00:25:56,799 --> 00:26:00,400 like a dense force like out here in Georgia, where like to seconds, 343 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,039 I'm i to go missing, right, It's it's almost like a plane almost 344 00:26:04,599 --> 00:26:11,839 whenever you first got out of the vehicle, any impending doom fillings or anything 345 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,799 like that before you saw it. No, No, not really, no, 346 00:26:15,839 --> 00:26:18,039 not at all. Actually I had no I was like, I'm gonna 347 00:26:18,039 --> 00:26:22,880 go take a picture, and that was really the only thing in my mind, 348 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,680 you know. I mean, it's dark and you can't see anything, 349 00:26:26,759 --> 00:26:30,880 so you're always like hopefully nothing shows up, like like an animal or like 350 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,480 an air or like a mountain lion or something. I don't know what's out 351 00:26:33,519 --> 00:26:37,039 there. I don't know any animals in Colorado. I know it's Colorado. 352 00:26:37,039 --> 00:26:41,079 It's wild. So there was no feeling though. The only the only time 353 00:26:41,079 --> 00:26:45,000 I actually had that feeling was the I think the previous night I was in 354 00:26:45,039 --> 00:26:51,200 the arches. I think that was after No, I think it was before 355 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,279 I went to the arches and try to get a picture. No, it 356 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:56,200 was before, yeah, because I tried to get a picture, and it 357 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:02,000 was foggy, but though you know, nothing happened there. I did the 358 00:27:02,039 --> 00:27:03,200 same thing, got out of the car, try to take a picture, 359 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:07,640 foggy, I can't, got back in and left. The only thing I 360 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,160 had there was kind of like, ooh, this is kind of creepy because 361 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:14,759 the arches are giant rocks, so you have the night darkness and then you 362 00:27:14,799 --> 00:27:18,160 have the rock darkness, which is like a contrast. It's way darker than 363 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,000 it is like the night sky, And so that was like, oh, 364 00:27:22,039 --> 00:27:26,519 that's kind of creepy because you can just see these giant looming almost like massive 365 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,000 structures, but they're just giant rocks. So that's kind of creepy, you 366 00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:34,720 know, looking into like more darkness apart from the darkness you're already looking at. 367 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:37,559 But that's it, you know. But when I got to the Great 368 00:27:37,599 --> 00:27:41,240 Dunes, I had in mind already. I was like, I'm gonna go 369 00:27:41,279 --> 00:27:44,000 take a picture of the stars and the sand. Dudes. I didn't have 370 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,279 any like inclination of like a like an impending doom feeling or or anything like 371 00:27:49,319 --> 00:27:52,920 that. On the way up, you know, there's like little posters they 372 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,960 glow up. It's like a light bulb almost like crystas lights put us in 373 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:03,759 the same in the shape of a flying saucer. Okay, there is that, 374 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:08,000 Yeah, there's that. On the way up at someone's property iseline. 375 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,720 So it was like, look an alien. But it was like, on 376 00:28:12,759 --> 00:28:15,599 my buying around, I'm gonna like, I'm gonna go find an alien tonight. 377 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,039 I didn't mind. I was like, I'm gonna take a picture of 378 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:25,200 stars. You know, I didn't have any any idea that I would have 379 00:28:25,279 --> 00:28:30,839 run into something. So let me tell you a story. It's about two 380 00:28:30,839 --> 00:28:34,559 o'clock in the morning. Like I'm not I'm not even I'm not even joking 381 00:28:34,839 --> 00:28:38,799 for real. Same time. Yeah, a friend of mine had come over 382 00:28:38,799 --> 00:28:44,880 to my house at this point in time in my life. My room was 383 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,319 at the back of the house. The backyards right outside the room. The 384 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:55,240 room has like three double windows on the back wall that faced the backyard, 385 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:00,000 and there's a chain link fence with a very old, squeaky gait right there 386 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:07,119 by the house. So oftentimes my friends would just come to the back and 387 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,759 come in through the gate and knock on my window and you can hear the 388 00:29:10,839 --> 00:29:12,799 gate like as soon as they hit the handle on the gate. You can 389 00:29:12,839 --> 00:29:17,240 hear it. This friend of mine had come over. We're sitting in that 390 00:29:17,319 --> 00:29:22,039 back room. It's getting kind of late, about two o'clock. All I 391 00:29:22,079 --> 00:29:23,839 remember for certain. It was after one point thirty. I know that, 392 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:30,000 so I'm guessing that it was around two eight. We go out of my 393 00:29:30,079 --> 00:29:37,079 house through the front door. His car is parked right there in the driveway, 394 00:29:37,119 --> 00:29:45,480 and at my house, my driveway and the neighbor's driveway are side by 395 00:29:45,559 --> 00:29:48,160 side to the point where it just forms like a double wide driveway going from 396 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,039 the street all the way to the back of the house. His car is 397 00:29:52,079 --> 00:29:56,240 in my driveway, but there's like an empty driveway next to it. And 398 00:29:56,319 --> 00:30:02,759 then my vehicle was parked in front of his, and I was driving a 399 00:30:02,799 --> 00:30:11,319 Ford Explorer at the time. So we're standing behind his vehicle in the driveway 400 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:18,200 just talking before he leaves, and we hear the gate at the back of 401 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:22,839 the house. Well, I'm thinking it must be one of my friends coming 402 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:27,680 over and they went around back and we just missed one another. So I 403 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:32,000 start looking around. I don't see any cars, you know, none of 404 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,519 my friends vehicles are out there. Yeah, And so we're kind of like 405 00:30:36,359 --> 00:30:41,839 looking at one another and looking down the driveway, and the driveway kind of 406 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,680 widens behind the house a little bit, so you can't see the gate from 407 00:30:45,759 --> 00:30:49,039 the driveway at the front of the house. So we're waiting for whoever it 408 00:30:49,119 --> 00:30:52,480 is to come walking out from around the corner at the back of the house. 409 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,079 At the end of the driveway on the neighbors side, on the front 410 00:30:57,079 --> 00:31:03,160 of their garage is one of those orange outdoor lights like you were talking about, 411 00:31:03,119 --> 00:31:08,079 So there is that light. A few seconds go by, here comes 412 00:31:08,119 --> 00:31:17,279 somebody walking out from behind the house, just like we expected. My driveway 413 00:31:17,559 --> 00:31:25,880 is maybe fifty feet long, sixty feet long from where we are, so 414 00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:30,519 not real far, but it's not real close. And I don't recognize the 415 00:31:30,559 --> 00:31:37,079 person. I can't just instantly recognize them. And they walk to a position 416 00:31:37,119 --> 00:31:44,279 where they're now my vehicle and his vehicle are now blocking the view of them. 417 00:31:44,319 --> 00:31:48,279 We can't see them anymore. That's interesting. Yeah, So we start 418 00:31:48,319 --> 00:31:52,400 walking back over into my front yard to change the angle where we could see 419 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:59,039 them. Yeah, and we don't see them. They're not there, and 420 00:31:59,079 --> 00:32:02,359 I'm just like, what's going on. I'm pretty much in the middle of 421 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:07,559 my front yard at this point, and for some reason, I don't know 422 00:32:07,599 --> 00:32:10,880 why didn't think to like yell out or anything. Maybe it's because it was 423 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:15,559 so late. You know, we work our way back over towards the driveway. 424 00:32:15,599 --> 00:32:19,720 Now we're going to change our angle on the other side, you know, 425 00:32:19,799 --> 00:32:24,039 to see who this is. As soon as we walk over back basically 426 00:32:24,039 --> 00:32:30,119 to where we had been, you can see them, but they're standing in 427 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:37,079 the shadow next to my neighbor's house, almost like they're hiding. Yeah, 428 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:45,119 we kind of like step out into the neighbor's driveway, still at the back 429 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,240 of his vehicle, but even with it, and now we're in the other 430 00:32:47,319 --> 00:32:53,920 driveway and they start walking down the driveway towards us, directly towards us. 431 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:59,720 Here's something else to say, just for a side note, he and I 432 00:32:59,759 --> 00:33:05,480 are both really big dudes, not small at all. Intimidating for sure. 433 00:33:06,759 --> 00:33:09,920 I do not recognize this person at all. What I can tell you from 434 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:15,759 what I can see because they're backlit by this light at my neighbor's house at 435 00:33:15,759 --> 00:33:22,160 this point. So the silhouette, Yeah, the silhouette is like a person 436 00:33:22,279 --> 00:33:30,599 much smaller than me, but looks like an adult male long hair. I 437 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:36,200 can tell that they have long hair. It looks like some sort of jacket 438 00:33:37,359 --> 00:33:44,160 and pants, pretty uniform. I was thinking, maybe it's a jean jacket 439 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:49,920 and jeans or something. And they're just like walking right towards us, and 440 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:55,440 he and I are standing there, and this is the weird part. Neither 441 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,400 one of us could move. Neither one of us could talk, We couldn't 442 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:04,680 move, we couldn't do anything. We were just standing there frozen. And 443 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:10,360 this person made their way straight to us. And right before they got to 444 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:15,960 us, they turned to their left, which was our right, and changed 445 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:21,599 their angle where they walked between us and the corner of my neighbor's house and 446 00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:28,519 just cut straight across my neighbor's front yard. They walked through the yard to 447 00:34:28,559 --> 00:34:32,679 the sidewalk and then walked down the sidewalk. We're watching them this whole time. 448 00:34:34,679 --> 00:34:38,079 They're just casually strolling. They never say anything, they never stop. 449 00:34:39,079 --> 00:34:43,800 They go all the way to the end of the street. They turn left. 450 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:50,440 We can still see them walking. As soon as we lost view of 451 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,800 them as they like went behind the house at the end of the street, 452 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:59,960 we snap out of it and we're both just like, what the hell. 453 00:35:00,079 --> 00:35:06,320 Hell, here's the thing. I will swear on anything. It did not 454 00:35:06,559 --> 00:35:14,679 have a face. It was just empty blackness. At its closest point, 455 00:35:15,119 --> 00:35:22,440 it was I'm getting goosebumps right now, man, I used to go out 456 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:27,119 and look for Bigfoot. Yeah, this is the scariest thing that's ever happened 457 00:35:27,159 --> 00:35:29,920 to me in my life. This thing did not have a face. It 458 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:34,079 was just empty darkness. It was like there was a silhouette. It was 459 00:35:34,159 --> 00:35:37,719 three dimensional. I could tell it had long hair, I could tell it 460 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:42,639 had clothing on, but it was all just black. There was nothing there. 461 00:35:43,079 --> 00:35:45,400 Yeah, my friend saw the exact same thing. He still won't talk 462 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,440 about it really, Like he doesn't like to talk about it. I mean, 463 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,719 like I could. I haven't talked to this guy in probably five years. 464 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:58,079 I could call him up and be like, hey, man, you 465 00:35:58,079 --> 00:36:00,840 remember that thing in the driveway, and he'd be like, you know, 466 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:02,960 shut the f up, man, don't talk about it. Yeah. Whenever 467 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,440 we snapped out of it, you know, I'm like, what the hell 468 00:36:07,519 --> 00:36:08,599 was that? And he's like, it didn't have a face, Like that 469 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:14,840 was the first thing he said. Oh yeah, I immediately go inside the 470 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:19,519 house, call nine to one one and I called the cops. Man, 471 00:36:19,559 --> 00:36:22,679 I didn't know I was shook. I was absolutely shook. I said, 472 00:36:24,119 --> 00:36:30,000 there was a guy in my backyard. Yeah, they send the cops. 473 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,719 I tell them, you know, we tell them the story. We don't 474 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,599 tell them that it didn't have a face or anything. We just say this 475 00:36:37,639 --> 00:36:42,159 person. We didn't We couldn't really make any details out. They walked down 476 00:36:42,199 --> 00:36:45,840 to the industry. They turned left, the cops went drove around. He 477 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:51,559 and I got in his vehicle, drove around, never saw anybody, couldn't 478 00:36:51,559 --> 00:36:55,079 find anybody. I have no idea what it was, but I will swear 479 00:36:55,480 --> 00:37:00,360 until I die it did not have a face. It was just darkness, 480 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:06,599 just a black void where its face should have been. It's interesting that you 481 00:37:06,639 --> 00:37:12,960 say you couldn't move and that, because that's how I felt like the moment. 482 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,679 I thought. I don't know if it was the same for you, 483 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,679 if it like took you a little longer, But it was like I instantly 484 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:23,840 looked registered it wasn't a person, and then it couldn't move. Yeah, 485 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:28,519 And it felt like I was forcing you know how you get like sleep paralysis. 486 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,639 Yeah, yeah, that's what it felt like. And I had to 487 00:37:30,639 --> 00:37:36,199 force myself out of it to move towards my truck. But for you, 488 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,639 like what was that feeling of like you couldn't move and did you get sick? 489 00:37:39,679 --> 00:37:45,199 Almost, So, whenever I first saw it step out from behind my 490 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:50,760 house and you know, kind of walk to where it was hidden from view, 491 00:37:52,639 --> 00:37:57,199 at that point, it was like just kind of that ice cold vein 492 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,039 feeling. And then I was like, who is that? You know, 493 00:38:00,159 --> 00:38:05,880 my mind is trying to process again what I'm seeing, and like, who 494 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:07,719 is this? Who is at my house? Because like I heard the gate. 495 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,960 I know we both heard the gate, so yeah, so it's like 496 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:17,239 physical right, And then whenever we saw it again and it's like leaned over 497 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:23,719 against the house as soon as it stepped out of the shadow and started walking 498 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:28,119 towards us, is when we both just froze, just could not move. 499 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:36,119 Because in any normal situation, he and I, especially him, would have 500 00:38:36,159 --> 00:38:39,480 been like, hey, who are you you know? Yeah, I mean, 501 00:38:39,559 --> 00:38:44,199 especially if you're that build. Yeah yeah, yeah, for sure. 502 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:50,679 I have no explanation for our behavior, for its behavior, what it looked 503 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:54,760 like, anything. And here's the other weird thing about it. Like I 504 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,679 said, we heard the gate, we heard it come out of the backyard, 505 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:00,519 but we had been in my room the entire time, and we never 506 00:39:00,639 --> 00:39:06,719 heard the gate where it went into the backyard. Oh so it disappeared or 507 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:15,199 I have no idea. I have no clue. It's funny that you even 508 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,039 say it had like a jean jacket on, because it's great. Still. 509 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:22,800 Yeah, yeah, I couldn't make out like any colors or anything. Did 510 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:27,559 I have like a silver lining around it? Uh? Not that I remember. 511 00:39:28,199 --> 00:39:31,840 Okay, it was kind of like, I mean, there was just 512 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:36,480 like the outline of it because of the light that was behind it at the 513 00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:43,960 end of the driveway. Yeah, but still at that I mean, anybody 514 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:47,880 else walking down my driveway, I would like it wasn't that dark. But 515 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,400 this thing was dark, like a shadow like darker than its surroundings. It 516 00:39:52,519 --> 00:39:58,360 did, Yeah, because that's what the like to me. I could tell 517 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:02,800 that the suit it was wearing, it was obviously not pitch black. It 518 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:07,840 was just like there was no there were I didn't see hands, didn't see 519 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:09,840 feet, and there was no face. You know. I looked it was 520 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,239 looking straight at me, and that's the thing. I was looking straight at 521 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:17,400 me. So if there was texture, you know, as someone was wearing 522 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:22,920 a mask, I could have seen that. Because it's twenty twenty one, 523 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,679 I believe at this point, and some people are still wearing masks at the 524 00:40:24,679 --> 00:40:30,760 time. No mask, no full face thing. It was just nothing, 525 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:36,360 almost as if you're looking into the darkness that I heard that's around me. 526 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:42,480 Anyway, when you mentioned where you moved the angle right of the truck or 527 00:40:42,559 --> 00:40:45,079 the car, I did the same thing because that's where. That's why I 528 00:40:45,119 --> 00:40:50,559 moved left to like change the angle, and that's when it wasn't there anymore. 529 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,960 Yeah, I mean, I've tried to figure this one out for years, 530 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:04,920 and the reason being is obviously I know there's going to be people listening 531 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,239 to this episode and I get it. Oh, so it was just like 532 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:13,880 some guy in your backyard, you know it was dark out or something. 533 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,599 No, if that were it, I wouldn't be telling you about it right 534 00:41:16,639 --> 00:41:21,320 now. Well, you also have like a feeling, and that's you know, 535 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,559 people during the camping trip ask me the same thing, like, it's 536 00:41:23,599 --> 00:41:27,360 sure wasn't just a guy. I was like, I don't think I would 537 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,159 be reacting the same way if it was a guy, right, And I 538 00:41:30,159 --> 00:41:34,440 probably would have said something. On a personable person, I don't say nothing, 539 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:39,119 and I don't get scared off of seeing somebody well me And then another 540 00:41:39,199 --> 00:41:45,239 guy who, yeah, you're with somebody too. I mean, my friend 541 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:51,639 is very confrontational. He likes to get into fights. And you know, 542 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:57,679 in a normal scenario, this is somebody that doesn't belong on my property, 543 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,960 that's all my property, and has just gotten busted. You know, like 544 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:04,840 we're gonna beat the crap out of this guy. You know, like, 545 00:42:05,039 --> 00:42:07,599 who are you? Why are you in my backyard? Man? What are 546 00:42:07,639 --> 00:42:12,119 you doing here? Yeah? Honestly, and we were both just like frozen, 547 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,119 couldn't move, could not move. It wasn't even a choice. And 548 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:23,480 it wasn't like frozen with fear as much as it was just almost just like 549 00:42:23,559 --> 00:42:29,000 in a zombie state, just like watching it, nothing even registering, just 550 00:42:29,119 --> 00:42:32,679 watching it walk by, just standing there and watching this thing walk by. 551 00:42:35,119 --> 00:42:37,880 And then after it got out of sight where we couldn't see it anymore. 552 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:44,960 And keep in mind, it's walked it's at least six houses to the end 553 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:50,239 of the block. It's walked right by us within five feet. It's walked 554 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,960 through this front yard, it's walked down the sidewalk, it's turned left, 555 00:42:53,039 --> 00:42:59,079 it's walked past that house. After it goes out of you, we instantly 556 00:42:59,119 --> 00:43:01,800 snap out of it. And start freaking out. Not while it's walking away, 557 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:07,119 not whenever it's five houses away. Well, also is it right next 558 00:43:07,119 --> 00:43:10,559 to you too? Yeah, And the entire time, even with it walking 559 00:43:10,639 --> 00:43:15,880 down the sidewalk and all of that, still can't see anything, can't make 560 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:21,679 out a face, nothing. Granted it's back was turned to us and everything, 561 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,599 but even as it's walking down the side, you know, at the 562 00:43:23,679 --> 00:43:29,760 end of the street, there's no like profile to it or anything. Yeah, 563 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,440 that's wild. Yeah, Like even I don't even know to think about 564 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,119 that one, I mean yours. I would like to say, you saw 565 00:43:37,119 --> 00:43:44,000 an alien, you know, wearing a space suit at the dunes in Colorado? 566 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,800 Mine shadow, man, I don't know. Are they the same thing? 567 00:43:49,079 --> 00:43:51,800 I don't know. Do they come from the same place, No clue. 568 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,400 All I know is you saw something without a face and I saw something 569 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:59,280 without a face. Yeah, I mean it could have been lead the same 570 00:44:00,119 --> 00:44:07,000 hype of something and very similar reactions in both cases, I would say, 571 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,199 Yeah, very similar, I'd say. And that's the thing is, like 572 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:13,920 I was kind of hoping you have like some kind of exclamation, but well, 573 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,239 because I was, like, I've been looking for one for so long 574 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:23,480 and I still just even just thinking about it. Whenever I'm out alone by 575 00:44:23,519 --> 00:44:28,480 myself at night, it's just like, oh, maybe i'll see it again. 576 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,519 I don't know. I'm hoping. I don't obviously, but it's just 577 00:44:31,559 --> 00:44:37,440 like always there. So the only thing that comes to mind. And it's 578 00:44:37,519 --> 00:44:44,599 not the same place exactly, I don't know exactly where it is. So 579 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:52,039 I'm from Oklahoma and out towards the Panhandle, which is the general area you 580 00:44:52,079 --> 00:44:58,760 were at. There's a place here in Oklahoma where all kinds of like crazy 581 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:04,960 weird stuff happens, the Shamans Triangle or something weird like that. It's got 582 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,199 some crazy name, and it's just like it's just like a weird place where 583 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:17,360 people see UFOs and weird things and weird stuff happens all the time. So 584 00:45:17,599 --> 00:45:24,199 I'm wondering if maybe something connected to just that geographic region of the United States 585 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:29,039 or something. I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I 586 00:45:29,079 --> 00:45:34,440 haven't looked into anything regarding the Great Dudes. I did very briefly before I 587 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,800 emailed you. I was like, maybe this is like a normal thing. 588 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:42,519 I didn't find too much. The only thing I did find was like aliens. 589 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:46,960 But it's like I haven't seen anything. I don't know, and I 590 00:45:47,119 --> 00:45:52,639 part of me wants to go back and like figure out what it is or 591 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:57,519 maybe encounter it again. I appreciate you coming on here and sharing it. 592 00:45:57,559 --> 00:46:01,840 Man, I wish I had some aner is for you. It's okay, 593 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:07,239 I'll keep looking. Yeah. Do you got a place for people to check 594 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:12,280 out your photographs or anything? Yeah? I just have an Instagram.
