They're any other experiences that you've 23 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,039 had that you didn't share an episode four forty one that you wouldn't mind sharing 24 00:03:09,039 --> 00:03:15,719 with us tonight. Yeah, I believe I didn't go into much detail about 25 00:03:15,719 --> 00:03:22,400 Gloucestershire. There's a district bad glasshouse, it's face included, heavily wooded. 26 00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:29,039 It's a beautiful rural site, some nice small villages. You drive off the 27 00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:32,360 main road about two miles down a single country lane and you're you're just like 28 00:03:32,439 --> 00:03:38,360 in a different part of the world. But the place it's just silence, 29 00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:40,840 you know, except the biggle. I'm sort of going about the daily business. 30 00:03:40,919 --> 00:03:46,280 But you know, hardly the birds ever seeing. I say, I 31 00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:50,479 mean, I think I said before, like the squirrels kind of tipto woods. 32 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,639 But yeah, it's in the Forest of Dean on the right side of 33 00:03:54,680 --> 00:04:01,960 the River seven and then on the obviously side Wales, and I'm not sure 34 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:08,080 if it's the same pack or two different packs, but on the English side 35 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:15,000 around glass House Forests Dean is about ten miles southwest, which is near the 36 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,279 forested Dean. But glass House is a wonderful rural areas but it's beautiful, 37 00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:26,680 some really nice villages. Anyway, how I came to find glass House, 38 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:33,800 I was just looking at Google Maps one day on a phone and I just 39 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,480 sort of got a feeling that, you know, there might be something there. 40 00:04:36,519 --> 00:04:42,959 So I drove up there one day looking around. I mean actually at 41 00:04:42,959 --> 00:04:47,240 the time, this is with me, and there was a beautiful rural pub 42 00:04:47,399 --> 00:04:54,240 that I seemed to open like four days a week. And then we started 43 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,600 walking around some of the planes and we kind of noticed that there was no 44 00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:01,480 bird thing. You could see the bird, but there was just an all 45 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,279 the birds were singing were sort of deer, and we didn't stay too long. 46 00:05:06,319 --> 00:05:10,439 I just wanted to see what lay the land was like. And then 47 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,959 a couple of weeks later went back, and this time we went for a 48 00:05:14,959 --> 00:05:20,800 walk around the woods and it was sort of like a community living in yets 49 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:26,279 or tent, you know, the Mongol yets. I wouldn't describe it as 50 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,000 a hash round, but yeah, the huge generator going. And as we 51 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,079 were walking around the single track plane in the middle of the wood, I 52 00:05:34,199 --> 00:05:41,800 noticed over to my left there was one sat there on all fours and I 53 00:05:41,879 --> 00:05:45,360 sort of looked at it, and it quickly moved from left or right right 54 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,399 behind it and it got in behind my missus, and you know, I 55 00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:49,600 said to her, so turning the spade, look at me, and I 56 00:05:49,639 --> 00:05:54,040 took a picture rather and the thing was right behind her, and I would 57 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:58,839 say it was stood about sort of head height shoulder level on all fours behind 58 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,920 her, and it was sort of chucked in between some bushes and a fence 59 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,519 line. Anyway, she turned around, she never saw it, and we 60 00:06:03,639 --> 00:06:08,959 just carried on walking. I've been back there a couple of times myself individually. 61 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,360 But you really on one side of the woods, you really have to 62 00:06:12,399 --> 00:06:16,959 go up maybe about half an hour mile of the country lane, and then 63 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,639 it kind of splits into two left and right. Now. I sort of 64 00:06:19,639 --> 00:06:26,240 got the left side and you get some sort of bogging marshy land, which 65 00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:31,240 is pretty hard to get around, but this sort of crosses smoking terrain and 66 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:35,639 then the tree line starts again up the top of the ridge and you can 67 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:41,000 sort of sometimes took her head up and just d the peak. But there 68 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,879 was another time when we went back the message, and this time we plucked 69 00:06:45,879 --> 00:06:53,600 on the reverse side of the woodlands round glasshouse and there was a missing person 70 00:06:54,319 --> 00:07:00,439 poster for a builder. But you know, I didn't do any follow adn't 71 00:07:00,439 --> 00:07:08,360 s see he'd ever been found. But it's a beautiful spot. There's cannot 72 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,560 chase. Been up there with a couple of meetings back in the day. 73 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,360 I've been up there by myself a couple of times. I mean this was 74 00:07:15,399 --> 00:07:20,959 going back when I first started out. There's a location up there called the 75 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:27,279 German Cemetery and it has a German military buried in there from the First War 76 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:32,680 and the Second World War, and there's a world documentary account I think one 77 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:38,399 of the grounds and come in early one morning and seeing a large black eye. 78 00:07:38,399 --> 00:07:42,759 People came in walking around the cemetery. And the first time I went 79 00:07:42,839 --> 00:07:46,040 up there, there was actually a structure felt actually on the side of the 80 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,000 road, just like in plain site wasn't hidden and he certainly didn't look human. 81 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,079 You know, it was made by him in hands. There's a lot, 82 00:07:55,079 --> 00:07:57,560 an awful lot of interesting stuff. But as I got back in the 83 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,920 car to have my lunch, I just noticed so so left this like this 84 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,240 little warf like head just pop up. So I actually got out to see 85 00:08:05,399 --> 00:08:11,439 and get close the fingered right away. And another time I was up there, 86 00:08:13,279 --> 00:08:15,879 I went to another part of the wood where there's a quarry. I 87 00:08:15,879 --> 00:08:18,959 think it's still being worked, but I don't know if it's the same in 88 00:08:18,959 --> 00:08:22,759 America, but I seem to have a bit of a fascination with quarries used 89 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,560 and unused, and walking down the road, down the step track in the 90 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,480 middle of the wood that led to the coin. As I started going Maruna 91 00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:35,559 to the rights, feeling, I'm just like, now go away, now 92 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,759 turn around and walk away, which I did, but I got because I'm 93 00:08:39,759 --> 00:08:43,000 going up to the main road. I stopped pathway and I turned around. 94 00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:46,000 I took the picture and there was one just hiding in between some trees, 95 00:08:46,639 --> 00:08:50,559 and I just carried on my way back. They've been up to kind of 96 00:08:50,639 --> 00:08:58,159 Chase twice individually and twice for group meetings with an organization. But we had 97 00:08:58,159 --> 00:09:01,679 a couple of meetings there and didn't see anything, but we just thought, 98 00:09:01,879 --> 00:09:05,679 you know, just always had this feeling of being watched. And after one 99 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:11,440 meeting, a couple of the guys stayed behind to camp and something was growling 100 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,960 at the guys under the canopy, and they thought it was a couple of 101 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,080 members that had stayed behind to play pranks on them. But you know, 102 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,279 these guys were told, well, no, no one stayed behind, no 103 00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:26,360 one played any pranks. So I think they probably had a genuine both circling 104 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:31,600 and then sort of growling up and then just didn't want them there. So 105 00:09:31,399 --> 00:09:37,440 canic chases spot. There's all kinds of weird and wonderful stuff that goes up 106 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:43,279 there. I had a one in another one in Cheshire about a year ago 107 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,200 when I was no. Two years ago, when I was visiting home. 108 00:09:46,759 --> 00:09:50,600 The back window of where my folks there, that it crosses an open field 109 00:09:50,639 --> 00:09:56,919 right undt the moors and there's an old sort of boy Scout camp and there's 110 00:09:56,919 --> 00:10:01,159 some trees there now, but back in the date used to along to the 111 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,840 sort of Girl Guide Boy Scouts Association, and there's trees in there now and 112 00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:09,200 I've got a couple of pictures from where they're just sort of stinging to head 113 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:15,639 out of the tree line above the stung war looking directly into the house from 114 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,720 the back. From where I live here, it crosses arms to the moors 115 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:24,039 Sterndale or more, and that goes into Derbyshire and there's a place called le 116 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:30,919 Dale whaley Bridge, and they've been reported around there, and there's one walking 117 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,120 across the tops behind Whaley Bridge a broad daylight, not a care in the 118 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:41,200 world. And this is what really fascinates you know here Sometimes you get people 119 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,440 saying, oh, it was really aggressive, or it was just growing, 120 00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:48,320 it was showing all his teeth. Couldn't care less if they've seen in broad 121 00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:54,279 daylight. It's almost like a nonchalance or a certain arrogance. It's like nothing 122 00:10:54,279 --> 00:10:56,759 can be done to them. And if you could do something, what you're 123 00:10:56,759 --> 00:11:01,679 going to do because they say they can get away quite easily. But they 124 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,519 seemed to have a rather lars a fair about, you know, being seen 125 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,039 or getting close to somebody. I mean one of the first ones I ever 126 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:13,039 had, I would say it was parked up going down the pathway in the 127 00:11:13,039 --> 00:11:16,960 woods at Noony and there was one just sat there and again well, it 128 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:24,120 back to me. I was no closer, probably about three five feet he 129 00:11:24,279 --> 00:11:28,600 sang its launches. It's four foot and the cup was immaculate, and it 130 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,679 didn't even turn around to look at me, but you know I was looking 131 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,600 at I was. I was really transfixed looking at the at its back and 132 00:11:35,639 --> 00:11:39,519 the hair or the fur, the coat. It was just immaculate. But 133 00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:45,879 December twenty eighteen in Noony Woods, it was a mesty day. It was 134 00:11:45,879 --> 00:11:50,840 one to my front, and I mean it was making no bones about hiding, 135 00:11:50,519 --> 00:11:54,559 and it was definitely sort of like you can see me and I can 136 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,159 see you. And then I just started getting a feeling that was one on 137 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,399 my left and there was on my right, and you know, I was 138 00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:05,519 surrounded, and being an ex soldier, you can either take that as a 139 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:11,759 defensive stance that can be easily turned into an offensive situation, but it's it's 140 00:12:11,799 --> 00:12:13,879 the guy at the front that's kind of got your attention, and it's either 141 00:12:13,919 --> 00:12:16,759 going to be one from the left of the right. It's going to bite 142 00:12:16,879 --> 00:12:20,799 on the back of the neck, breaking your neck because you know the other 143 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,759 two were concealed. But it's just you suddenly realize that something's not right. 144 00:12:24,759 --> 00:12:26,639 Here, and then you started getting a feeling. There was one on my 145 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,399 left, and then there was one on my right. But I think that 146 00:12:30,519 --> 00:12:35,000 was more for their I suppose it would be strange to say for their own 147 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,919 safety. They were sort of trying to get a size because they always seem 148 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,799 to know if you're looking for them. And I say, but there was 149 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,759 one that was just clearly sort of like I'm over here, and obviously it 150 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,320 got my attention. Obviously, you know, this is the second year I 151 00:12:50,399 --> 00:12:54,919 was into the subject, and obviously you know it's quite exciting. And then 152 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,399 you suddenly realize, you know, a certain point, you get it's creeping 153 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,799 feeling. You know, there's one to my left, there's one to my 154 00:13:01,879 --> 00:13:05,519 right. So you know, I just kind of stopped. After a couple 155 00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:09,480 of minutes, this thing disappeared, and you know, I kind of eased 156 00:13:09,519 --> 00:13:13,159 back a bit because that sort of feeling on my left and right had gone. 157 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,559 But I would say, I mean, even when I walked in on 158 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,840 them hunting, they just carry on. But the first time I actually walked 159 00:13:20,879 --> 00:13:24,320 in on them again there was three of them, I just froze and I 160 00:13:24,399 --> 00:13:28,960 was just absolutely petrified because this thing just came out of the undergrowth from nowhere. 161 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,080 I didn't even see it, and it just it was low to the 162 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,039 ground. It just seems like it was gliding, but it was moving. 163 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,000 And then it turned left into the tree line and then came back around on 164 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,480 the right another time. I think I said in the first interview with Vic, 165 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:46,200 I was finding some tracks and I suddenly just got I was really petrified. 166 00:13:46,279 --> 00:13:48,639 It's got this real sensation that whatever it was like two hundred meters in 167 00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:52,360 front of me, and it was like whatever it was, it was really 168 00:13:52,399 --> 00:13:54,759 really hungry, and he just didn't care what he was going to eat. 169 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,120 I just got out of there. And that's even on my own patch, 170 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,919 and I've only had twice that that's a fear, you know, I mean, 171 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:07,679 being really petrified, absolutely scared witless. But normally I just walk around 172 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,120 there. I mean, I mean earlier this year, it was just the 173 00:14:11,159 --> 00:14:15,840 weather was just absolutely horrible and I was up in the woods and there it 174 00:14:15,879 --> 00:14:20,799 was just absolutely chucking it down with rain. I'm just stood under a tree 175 00:14:22,799 --> 00:14:26,600 trying to do my best, and no more than maybe about ten meters there's 176 00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:31,200 one next to a tree there trying to do the same thing. Get out 177 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,200 of the rain, But yeah, that one into Sumber twenty eighteen, there 178 00:14:35,279 --> 00:14:41,159 was you know, it was just like boulders Brass. So I think maybe 179 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:48,759 that was an exercising sort of way up me or just maybe sizing me up. 180 00:14:48,039 --> 00:14:52,480 Really, yeah, it sounds like that just might be what was going 181 00:14:52,559 --> 00:14:56,879 on, Mike. I've collected several questions from people who listened to episode four 182 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,480 forty one you've agreed the answering to night Chill. The first one's from Monroe 183 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:07,879 Divine. She actually sent in quite a few questions. Her first question reads, 184 00:15:07,519 --> 00:15:13,600 do you think they can talk or communicate? Yeah, I'm certainly belong 185 00:15:13,639 --> 00:15:20,120 in that category that they can communicate using mind speak or certainly some sort of 186 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,039 visual connection. I mean for me, it's it's definitely like with dreams. 187 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,960 I mean they're in my dreams. I mean a couple of them have been 188 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,159 absolutely vivid, like it was a real time event. But yeah, certainly 189 00:15:31,159 --> 00:15:35,720 they can communicate. I think some more people more developing themselves and certainly get 190 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,720 the mind speak. You know, there is that sort of level of communication 191 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,960 which I think is the same with Sasquatch or save people. But yeah, 192 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:48,559 sure, yeah, absolutely. She's got several other questions that she's sent in 193 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,600 as well. The next one reads, was there one in your house? 194 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,320 Or when it was in your house, you didn't see the dog man. 195 00:15:56,679 --> 00:16:02,039 Why do you think that was? Because they have a cloaking mechanism that they 196 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,480 can sort of like one minute you see them, one minute the next. 197 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,519 I mean, certainly, you know that time when I was in bed and 198 00:16:08,559 --> 00:16:11,840 it was tapping me on the shoulder, I heard it moved down to the 199 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,080 end of the bed, but when I worked up there was nothing there. 200 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,440 And certainly, I mean, I've had a situation moment missus. You know, 201 00:16:18,639 --> 00:16:21,919 she rang out, I'm out there. Just smell that smaller dog again 202 00:16:21,919 --> 00:16:25,000 in the house. I'll repeat, we do not have a dog. We 203 00:16:25,039 --> 00:16:29,600 don't own patch, we don't even know the own a goldfish. But she 204 00:16:29,679 --> 00:16:32,799 said there was a heavy, smaller dog in the house and she was out. 205 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:37,240 She went for a couple of hours. Personally, I think they have 206 00:16:37,679 --> 00:16:42,000 the same ability like sasquatch or the subway people, that they can somehow manifest 207 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,320 like a portal or a device where they can sort of move in and out 208 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,759 different areas. But certainly, that time when it was at the house tapping 209 00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:55,559 on my shoulder, it's just when it was breathingt on me. You just 210 00:16:55,559 --> 00:16:59,279 don't forget stuff like that. And then when it was tapping me on my 211 00:16:59,279 --> 00:17:02,039 shoulder and you know, it moves to the end of the bed, I 212 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,279 thought, right, I'm going to count tend that I want to scream like 213 00:17:04,319 --> 00:17:11,759 a big girl because I was expecting something there and it wasn't. So that 214 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:17,240 kind of sort of deflected the balloon of excitement. But yeah, I think 215 00:17:17,279 --> 00:17:21,880 they have the ability to cloak. You know, certainly in the natural woodland, 216 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,480 they cloak a lot, or I used to call it ghosting. It 217 00:17:26,559 --> 00:17:32,359 kind of seemed like that because I got pictures where they're half invisible and half 218 00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:36,880 physically seen. But I think they have a natural mechanism on how they can 219 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:41,079 do that. I don't there's anything magical in that aspect. I think they 220 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:47,839 have a natural biological function that can make them sort of do or what it 221 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,680 may appear to be like magic, is to sort of like momentut you see 222 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,759 them, momentute you don't, because it's the same like with sasquatch. You 223 00:17:53,799 --> 00:17:57,119 know, there's lots of accounts where suddenly you see them the w minute they're 224 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,440 just you know, they're gone, like they're just appeared, but they're still 225 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:07,240 physically there. But I believe they have a natural biological mechanism that can actually 226 00:18:07,319 --> 00:18:11,480 make them sort of be there one minute and gone the next. If that's 227 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,920 the keys, just imagine how many times people walk right past the dog. 228 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,039 Mean, that's cloakeding. They don't even know it. Oh, I mean 229 00:18:18,079 --> 00:18:22,960 there's I mean, I think there is a video on YouTube like twenty Strange 230 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:29,200 Things Caught on video, and there's like a barber shop in Brazil and it's 231 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,839 an internal close circuit television camera overlooking the street and it's at nighttime. You 232 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:38,279 see this natural dog walking down the street, and then right behind it, 233 00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:42,079 you can you can make the outline of what you would call a classic dog 234 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:48,039 man just tick tone behind it. But the guys in the barbershop don't see 235 00:18:48,039 --> 00:18:51,920 it, but you can see the outline on camera, almost like it's a 236 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:56,039 ghost. So I mean they come into town. I mean, and this 237 00:18:56,039 --> 00:19:00,839 this image is actually caught inside it harbor shop. I don't know what town 238 00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:03,000 in Brazil it was, but he said, you know it was. It 239 00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:10,680 was caught on a CCTV in Brazil. So yeah, they certainly have this 240 00:19:10,799 --> 00:19:17,960 ability. Sure, Yeah, that's a pretty unnerving thought. Her next question 241 00:19:18,079 --> 00:19:21,559 reads, what do you think the reason is for the clothing and other items 242 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,759 you found in the woods? Are they some kind of trophy or do you 243 00:19:23,799 --> 00:19:29,359 think these beings can cheap shift? And are they predominantly items from children or 244 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:34,920 adults too? Both? But the items are predominantly both children adults. But 245 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:40,839 it's just stuff that you find for children that you know, just really kind 246 00:19:40,839 --> 00:19:41,759 of throws you because you think, well, you know, what kind of 247 00:19:41,839 --> 00:19:48,519 negligent parent would leave a Charles Wellington's in the middle of puppy. You know, 248 00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:49,960 you're thinking, well, they make the child walk all the way back 249 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,039 to the car and cold wet mud, or Jackie's just hung up. Sometimes, 250 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:00,640 you know, I kind of think maybe they steal stuff from clothing lines 251 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:11,039 or washing that's to shape shifters. This way, I don't discount that there 252 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,640 might be something or you know, that something like that might exist. You 253 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:21,119 know, a person that may come across as normal as an ability to maybe 254 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:26,200 do something extraordinary. I mean it was at the Navajo culing skin walkers, 255 00:20:26,839 --> 00:20:30,400 where they actually wear the skin of an animal and then become the animal or 256 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:37,559 somehow shift into that animal. I certainly believe that maybe something like that might 257 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,319 exist. I've never experienced it. I've never seen it. I've heard one 258 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,160 or two accounts from people who said they saw something, But you know, 259 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,519 it's like, I don't discount it. I'm sort of like, if I 260 00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:52,160 see it, then I believe it. But when you hear this from people 261 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,799 and you can tell him the voice, you know they're quite shaken. It's 262 00:20:56,839 --> 00:21:00,440 not like where you're down at the bar and you're telling at all tale from 263 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,039 when like you were twenty years old or something like that. But you know 264 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:07,720 you can tell that in the voice that they're not pulling your leg. But 265 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:11,480 as for clothing in the wood and all that hates odd, I can only 266 00:21:11,519 --> 00:21:15,680 assume that they do it for kicks or they just got this fascination we're taking 267 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,680 clothing. I can't give a definitive answer on that, to be honest, 268 00:21:19,519 --> 00:21:22,720 I can just give you know, what I think might be happening, or 269 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,000 just a working theory, you know, until I come across something else that 270 00:21:27,279 --> 00:21:32,640 where I can go that's why they do what they do. But to be 271 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:37,559 honest, really it's just a couple of ideas. Really. Her next question 272 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,799 reads, do you believe dogment are responsible for slaughtered animals in the area. 273 00:21:44,039 --> 00:21:49,480 Yes, yeah, I mean maybe some of the survey people or sasquatch they 274 00:21:49,599 --> 00:21:55,240 take sheep, but certainly where sheep are concerned. I mean, I mean 275 00:21:55,279 --> 00:21:59,640 there are dog attacks, you know, domestic canines and their owners, you 276 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,079 know, them in the fields and you know the dog just bolts and goes 277 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,839 for the sheet. But certainly at night where we've had multiple sheep kills, 278 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,960 you know, especially well, I mean I think twenty fifteen, twenty fourteen 279 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,599 a farm to start suddenly Henley on Thames, one hundred and twenty sheet killed 280 00:22:15,599 --> 00:22:19,000 in one night twenty eight one hundred were literally run to the point where they 281 00:22:19,039 --> 00:22:22,440 all died from heart attack, which to be fair, is quite common. 282 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:29,119 I mean, we have over thirty four million sheep in this country and I 283 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:36,039 think that the last reported total for sheep deaths I think was maybe five years 284 00:22:36,039 --> 00:22:41,000 ago. Well we had fifteen thousand, just over fifteen thousand reported due to 285 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:47,000 K nine attacks, that was the term reference. But ever since then they 286 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:52,200 stopped reporting them. I don't know why. Let's say we've got big cats 287 00:22:52,279 --> 00:22:55,960 here. They take the sheep, they go for the deer, and so 288 00:22:56,079 --> 00:22:59,960 we got a lot of rabbits and what have you, but certainly in particular 289 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,720 for sheep because basically the insurance claims on the livestock, you know, because 290 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:08,480 the costs are going up. And twenty seventeen or twenty eighteen, I think 291 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:15,759 they stopped reporting sheet deaths for whatever reason. But certainly, like I said, 292 00:23:15,799 --> 00:23:21,119 I had a relative contact me about an incident outside michaels Field, which 293 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:25,319 is a town in the northwest of this country, near a place called Sutton 294 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:30,839 Forest, where there was ten sheep killed and three were physically ripped apart, 295 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,200 and you said the bike marks on the rump of one. It was jews 296 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:38,920 from a single creature. It wasn't like multiple canines biting. This was a 297 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,480 full grown sheet and the jews were big enough for the rump of the sheet 298 00:23:42,519 --> 00:23:47,119 to fit in the mouth. And then this thing proceeded to rip the legs 299 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:52,079 out physically while this thing was still alive. So that wasn't fired out the 300 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:57,759 Labrador that they did that, that's for sure. But yeah, I mean 301 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:03,200 it's certainly twenty twenty eighteen. I think that was the last set of official 302 00:24:03,319 --> 00:24:08,039 figures and then for some reason they stopped reporting them. I mean, I'll 303 00:24:08,039 --> 00:24:12,799 be honest, I've not checked lately, but it was certainly, and the 304 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:18,519 execuse was because the insurance costs kept going up. They just didn't want people 305 00:24:18,559 --> 00:24:22,160 finding out the figures for whatever reason. Yeah, that's a lot of sheep. 306 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,200 Her next one reads, do you think or believe that the government there 307 00:24:26,319 --> 00:24:30,480 is actively trying to scare you away from the dog man? Or do you 308 00:24:30,519 --> 00:24:36,359 think that locals are and they're doing it for other reasons? But the locals, 309 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,400 it's just quite you know, simply, I've never seen anything, never 310 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,319 heard anything, and if I did, you know, I wouldn't tell you. 311 00:24:41,519 --> 00:24:45,960 Or you know, you're being silly, go away sort of thing. 312 00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:49,440 I certainly think. I mean, the first time I started getting the run 313 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:56,400 around from what I believe to be an authority, it was awkward. So 314 00:24:56,559 --> 00:24:59,920 I got the feeling that, you know, it's awkward. But the same 315 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,279 time around, it was just like, oh, you've got to take care 316 00:25:03,279 --> 00:25:06,839 of this guy for the next two weeks before we move on to the next 317 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,079 guy. It didn't seem as many singers the first time around. I'm pretty 318 00:25:11,079 --> 00:25:15,119 sure they'd do it too. A lot of people. I certainly know, 319 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,119 some of the people I run with. This hap to about two others three 320 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:27,440 others for sure, but you know, nothing ever drastic. I know, 321 00:25:27,519 --> 00:25:30,160 the first time around, I was saying my father was getting a phone call 322 00:25:30,279 --> 00:25:36,359 saying I was in hospital when it wasn't a female relative, sort of saying 323 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,920 that you know, you're better tell him to stop or something will happen to 324 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:45,559 him, and all this sort of malarkey. But the second time around, 325 00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:51,319 nothing as sinister as that. And I mean the one time when they were 326 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:55,000 actually I was funning up my carrecter gauge and there was the four court. 327 00:25:55,039 --> 00:25:57,240 There's two guys in a sort of a BMW. As soon as I walked 328 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,480 out after painting, Yeah, I looked at these guys. I was like, 329 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,960 come on, you know, you're so obvious, and they kind of 330 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:08,799 looked at each other and they just drove off. But yeah, I've been 331 00:26:08,839 --> 00:26:15,000 followed a few times, not so much this year because it kind of sort 332 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,599 of starts in February and you know, about two three weeks and then it 333 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,480 just kind of stops. Actually this year they were quite lazy about the whole 334 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:27,359 thing. But when he first started out, yeah, it was it was 335 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:32,240 certainly more visible, for sure, But this year around, it was just 336 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:38,519 like to put the house to get the pig. You know, well, 337 00:26:38,559 --> 00:26:44,920 I'm sure you've definitely got their attention. Her last question reads, do you 338 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,119 think the clothing you found is being taken by a small dog men like a 339 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,920 normal dog would take and play with the shoe? Yeah, it could well 340 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:56,039 be, yeah, absolutely, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's entirely possible. 341 00:26:56,839 --> 00:27:00,000 Yeah. Yeah, I would not just count that at all. I 342 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,839 mean, I mean, actually the younger ones. I say, I mean 343 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:04,839 a couple of times when I've been sat, you know, the young ones, 344 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,960 A couple of young ones are just running right up to me and then 345 00:27:07,039 --> 00:27:11,640 run off, Whereas the adults, you know, they kind of stay or 346 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,240 a certain keyboard distance. By the young ones just showed no fear at all. 347 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,440 So I wouldn't surprise me if the young ones would get into someone's backyard 348 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,279 and just run off with something to play with. The Yeah, entirely possible. 349 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,799 Yeah. I can only imagine how intense it must be to see a 350 00:27:26,839 --> 00:27:30,480 baby dog and coming at you, Mike. It doesn't get much more intense 351 00:27:30,519 --> 00:27:34,359 than that. Well, I mean that time I fed one smoky bacon when 352 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,839 it was in the den. You know, there was one right behind me, 353 00:27:37,279 --> 00:27:40,119 and you know, it was kind of a bit of annoyed that I 354 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,759 was feeding it. Yeah, I didn't do anything. I mean there was 355 00:27:42,799 --> 00:27:45,400 one in front of me, there was one behind me, but I was 356 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,880 just totally annoy of finding actually a cup in their den. You know, 357 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,240 I felt it bacon. And then I came back the next day and I 358 00:27:52,279 --> 00:27:56,480 gave it dog food. And again when I tried to take a picture, 359 00:27:56,559 --> 00:27:59,880 like I say, it's sort of got its left armor and just like dipped 360 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:03,079 it his head and pretending like it was hiding, I was just like, 361 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,160 oh my god, it was that the cutes together. I just can't you 362 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:11,160 know, I just forgot to take any more pictures or make a video. 363 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:15,200 So I was just so lost him this simple little action that he did. 364 00:28:15,039 --> 00:28:19,119 But certainly when I was the thing that the day before, it was about 365 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,799 twelve or the eleventh of October twenty eighteen, you know, I was feeling 366 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,319 bacon. I kind of got I got the feeling that the mother was behind 367 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,960 me, and you know when I started throwing it bacon, you know, 368 00:28:30,039 --> 00:28:37,000 I got like this snort of disgust, this nasal snort disgust. So the 369 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,640 feeling I got was like, that's my job, not yours. But you 370 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:45,119 know they did They didn't do anything, but certainly you know it was it 371 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:49,519 was I know she was right behind me because it was loud enough. I 372 00:28:49,559 --> 00:28:52,839 didn't turn around, by the way, I just I just kept looking at 373 00:28:52,839 --> 00:28:56,799 the couple. I can only imagine how tense I must have been. Yeah, 374 00:28:56,799 --> 00:29:00,519 it was all been. It was. Yeah, I don't doubt that. 375 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:07,160 The next question is from Bishop Martin, and his question reads, do 376 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,279 you think there's any way to deter them from coming around our homes? I 377 00:29:11,359 --> 00:29:17,799 have no idea. I really don't. I would have a clue. I 378 00:29:17,839 --> 00:29:22,319 mean, I know some people are a bit apprehensive about having them come around 379 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,640 me. I don't care, you know, I mean, I go to 380 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,240 that home, so why can't they come to mind. You can say like 381 00:29:29,319 --> 00:29:30,960 this, I don't mind what you do to me in the woods, but 382 00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:34,880 please don't come around to my home and sgather Jesus out of me, and 383 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,839 that kind of seems to work. But I think if you were to sort 384 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:45,920 of communicate something like that to the woods, you know, make sure that's 385 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,960 like you're talking to the trees or that they I said, if you communicate 386 00:29:48,039 --> 00:29:52,759 something like that, they seem to pick up on it. But for me, 387 00:29:52,839 --> 00:29:56,759 I have no problems coming around to the house inside or out or you 388 00:29:56,759 --> 00:30:00,440 know, by garden. I mean the message just she doesn't like it, 389 00:30:00,759 --> 00:30:04,920 but for me, I think it's awesome. But yeah, I think that 390 00:30:06,039 --> 00:30:10,240 might be the only way if you wished to deter. I would certainly not 391 00:30:10,839 --> 00:30:17,200 advise unarmed response, especially when there's been no confrontation, there's been no sort 392 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:22,839 of aggressive interaction. But you know, if there's just been like a like 393 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:27,640 a Mexican standoff type situation and he doesn't go any further, you know, 394 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:32,039 then you know, I would just sort of sort of say, well, 395 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,640 you know, don't come round in mine. I won't come round to yours. 396 00:30:34,759 --> 00:30:40,400 And I would suspect that they would just leave you alone. Well, 397 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:41,799 like you said, if you go into their home, it's only fear if 398 00:30:41,799 --> 00:30:48,119 they return the favors. So how could you blame him? Absolutely? Next 399 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,759 questions from win Crush. Actually she has three questions, no, four questions, 400 00:30:52,839 --> 00:31:00,480 I stand corrected. The first one is why are they here? Oh, 401 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,680 that is a good question. I mean that's it's like saying, why 402 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:11,240 are we here? Yeah, I really don't know. I can't answer that 403 00:31:11,279 --> 00:31:14,240 one. I'm a friend, Yeah, I don't see how you could answer 404 00:31:14,319 --> 00:31:18,200 that one. That's a tough one. Her next question is how long have 405 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,680 they been here? Ah, now, that one, I'm pretty sure you 406 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:27,279 are aware. There are some samples of DNA out there that are on record 407 00:31:29,319 --> 00:31:33,240 or have been examined, and it's the same like with the big Foot samples. 408 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:38,440 They kind of go back twenty thirty thousand years, thirty thousand years the 409 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:44,079 oldest, So I think they've been around. I'm going to go for twenty 410 00:31:44,079 --> 00:31:48,880 five to thirty thousand years. That's a long time. Her next question reads, 411 00:31:49,440 --> 00:32:00,240 how did they get here? Oh? This is um, this is 412 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,480 like the first question. It is. I don't see how you can answer 413 00:32:04,559 --> 00:32:17,519 that. I would say, whether you believe in some form of divine intervention 414 00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:27,920 or some sort of you go along with the sort of evolutionary process, I 415 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:32,440 really couldn't tell you, but I believe there is a DNA study being done 416 00:32:32,519 --> 00:32:38,079 right now and some samples of dogman well wolf, So I think once they're 417 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:45,519 done, I think maybe that would give some very definitive answers. But if 418 00:32:45,559 --> 00:32:51,559 I was to say personally, I would say probably the same result as the 419 00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:59,079 way as the big Foot stay people. Somehow they there's been a genetic mixed 420 00:32:59,079 --> 00:33:04,519 match. A specie is buying outside third party. That's what I believe personally. 421 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,880 I'm not saying that's the definitive answer. I'm not saying that at all. 422 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:13,680 That is what I personally believe. The next question is from Sherry clean 423 00:33:14,079 --> 00:33:16,680 In it reads, do you think dogmen wear clothes? I know it may 424 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:25,480 sound crazy, but is it a possibility? Actually we have we have a 425 00:33:25,559 --> 00:33:30,920 very famous well, certainly in a cryptic circles here in this country. She 426 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,440 was a teenage girl at the time it happened, but she had a seven 427 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,720 foot whirl Wolf confront he who was like wearing a ripped shirt. It probably 428 00:33:37,759 --> 00:33:45,519 stolen from a clothesline. And the strangest one I've heard was from a place 429 00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:51,720 called a whirl which is on the River Mersey Estuary, so it's a part 430 00:33:51,759 --> 00:33:54,640 of the greater part of Liverpool. And account of one wearing a wig, 431 00:33:55,319 --> 00:34:00,119 believe it or not, so, yeah, yeah, I think they do. 432 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:05,519 Wearing must like some form of trophy. Imagine what that must be like 433 00:34:05,599 --> 00:34:08,360 to see a dog man wearing a wig? I know, yeah, yeah, 434 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:13,559 yeah. And the guy actually when it was this account relates to me. 435 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,760 They said the guy stabbed it with a hand fork in the forearm, 436 00:34:20,119 --> 00:34:22,719 kind of run off. We said, it was wearing a blonde wig. 437 00:34:23,599 --> 00:34:27,800 You don't think that's a site you could ever get used to seeing. No, 438 00:34:28,079 --> 00:34:32,199 no, no, that Yeah, that would kind of stay with you 439 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:37,519 for a long time. Yeah. The teenage girl when it happened to her, 440 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,480 I mean, she's a grown woman now with kids. But certainly it 441 00:34:40,599 --> 00:34:45,599 was growing like a ship. But I mean because the thing I tried to 442 00:34:45,639 --> 00:34:50,599 put it on, it ripped it, but it was still wearing a shirt, 443 00:34:50,639 --> 00:34:52,760 you know, when it confronted her and then run off. Yeah, 444 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,840 I don't think that's a site you would ever get used to do. And 445 00:34:54,880 --> 00:35:00,119 that's for sure. The next two questions came in from Evie Swamp. Her 446 00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:05,480 first question reads, in recent years, I feel that the forests have become 447 00:35:05,559 --> 00:35:08,360 silent, regardless of the season, time or day, and even the night. 448 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:13,360 I mean, I don't hear the birds anymore except in May and early 449 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,199 June outside of dating as Mike noticed that, or does he notice sudden changes 450 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:23,360 in the environment before he encounters Yeah, yeah, I mean sometimes I mean 451 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,519 like you can be in the woods and one side of the pathway the birds 452 00:35:27,559 --> 00:35:30,639 are singing, and then on the left side they'll be like nada, it's 453 00:35:30,679 --> 00:35:37,000 just still still as a graveyard. And then you know, the birds on 454 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,760 the other side will stop, and then the birds on the left will stop 455 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:43,119 kicking up. I mean, actually, I mean the strange thing is seen. 456 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,119 Sometimes. I've even encounters when the birds are still singing, you know, 457 00:35:45,559 --> 00:35:49,440 because normally, you know, you have a lot of accounts whether they 458 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,840 just say suddenly everything just stopped, you know, it's just like total silence 459 00:35:54,559 --> 00:36:00,639 and then it appeared. But I mean, you can get places where the 460 00:36:00,679 --> 00:36:02,840 birds are still seen and you know, you can still have something happened. 461 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,119 So I kind of get the feeling that maybe, you know, the birds 462 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,360 think, well, it's not hungry, it's not going to hurt us, 463 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:13,440 so we'll just carry on. But yeah, absolutely, yeah. So actually, 464 00:36:13,599 --> 00:36:16,119 May, as I said before, that's when the first brood of young 465 00:36:16,119 --> 00:36:23,199 ones start running around like spring lambs. So yeah, there's certainly a change 466 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:28,719 in the atmosphere in the woods and the second batch of young ones start sort 467 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:34,039 of October time. But yeah, yeah, definitely a change in the woodlands. 468 00:36:34,079 --> 00:36:37,920 Yeah, May Jing. This next question is kind of related to that 469 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:42,719 from ev. This one reads do meetings take place at specific times more than 470 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:52,400 others. Well for me, I mean I got a routine and they're used 471 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:58,239 to that. So that certainly where I go to most of my meetups afternoon, 472 00:36:59,039 --> 00:37:02,000 so you know, I have a routine early hours Thursday morning, Sunday 473 00:37:02,039 --> 00:37:08,039 afternoon, and maybe mid Saturday afternoon at another location. Because for me, 474 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:12,079 I think repetition is key. The more you go, the more they're used 475 00:37:12,119 --> 00:37:15,480 to you, and the more easy things are. You know, if one 476 00:37:15,559 --> 00:37:20,239 just just like to sort of like literally come up to you, shake your 477 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,480 hand or give you a hug or something like that. But yeah, definitely, 478 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:29,119 once they get to know and spell and see what you're about and what 479 00:37:29,199 --> 00:37:31,960 you are, yeah, you know that they'll be there before. Like I 480 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,760 say, I mean once time they were there before I even turned up, 481 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,519 which kind of really shook me. But yeah, give you five ten minutes 482 00:37:39,519 --> 00:37:45,119 and they're there, and yeah, just just walk around and they'll make a 483 00:37:45,119 --> 00:37:49,760 fuss, they'll make a noise, or they'll just go on the marry away 484 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,239 leave you alone. I mean, sometimes they don't turn up at all, 485 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:58,519 but more often than not it's the younger ones. But yeah, yeah, 486 00:37:58,599 --> 00:38:01,239 yeah, definitely, I think the more you put into a routine, and 487 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,880 the more they get used to, you know, a lot more things happen. 488 00:38:05,559 --> 00:38:07,360 I mean, you know, even to the point where actually, you 489 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:12,880 know, sometimes it's like, is this someone else I can go because now 490 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,039 and again it's just it does become too repetition. It becomes a little boring. 491 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:22,880 But you know, it's it's that next trip where something happens that suddenly 492 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:27,679 you're like, oh, that was great. Here's a really interesting question for 493 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,360 you. He was submitted by Scott Matthews and reads due to go in public 494 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:36,639 with details of regular encounters that you've had locally. Do you have any concerns 495 00:38:36,639 --> 00:38:40,599 about the government or local authorities locating and capturing any of the dogman you visit? 496 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:50,559 No, not really. The only time that I've known when I was 497 00:38:50,599 --> 00:38:54,599 told about this of guys from the Department of Agriculture going into or woodland to 498 00:38:54,880 --> 00:39:01,280 conduct a hunt actually came back out and pastic buckets and they were found by 499 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:09,199 the authorities, by the police. So I've got no put it this way, 500 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:14,159 I think there's only one side that's going to win. If somebody was 501 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:20,119 certainly here, I don't know about the state or level of equipment or activities 502 00:39:20,159 --> 00:39:22,960 in the States. But certainly, yeah, I know of the one occasion 503 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:28,920 where somebody or two guys went in to do something that they came out in 504 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:35,480 small chunks. And also in seven years that I've been doing this, on 505 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:39,440 two occasions, I have seen guys who I know aren't your average ramblers, 506 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:45,320 aren't your average walkers. The way they carried themselves there were definitely something to 507 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:51,320 do with some official body. And the first guy I ever saw, I 508 00:39:51,639 --> 00:39:53,840 just knew the guy was ex military. He was definitely in a pay grade 509 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:59,239 above me when I was in the army. So it's just it's just the 510 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:00,679 way the guy carried himself, and you just know, right, just give 511 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:05,280 this guy a lot of breathing space. I'll just pretend to be a dumb 512 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,519 ediot. But yeah, on two occasions, I've seen guys two separate individuals, 513 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,719 sort of the way they'll walking, the way they're looking at the ground, 514 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,320 the way they're looking at the trees, the foliage. You know they're 515 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:20,400 looking for him. But in that situation, there's only going to be one 516 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,559 winner. If you want to go about it in the conventional way. It 517 00:40:23,679 --> 00:40:29,559 were the rifle and good old tracking and hunting skills. But if you go 518 00:40:29,639 --> 00:40:34,880 up some specialized equipment, maybe, but I've never seen that, but it 519 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,599 would certainly seem if you want to do it the old fashioned way, you're 520 00:40:37,639 --> 00:40:42,519 a dead man. I mean, I was listening to that guy you did 521 00:40:42,559 --> 00:40:46,679 two episodes, but he went to was it Oklahoma or Ohio? To kill 522 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:52,679 one with a group of friends Oklahoma? That was Brad. Yeah. I 523 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,559 was like, what on earth was that man thinking. I mean, if 524 00:40:55,840 --> 00:41:02,239 he'd gone with high rose motion camera and was thinking about taking pictures of him 525 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:06,360 half a mile away, I'd give that guy the Congressional Medal of Valor, 526 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,840 you know, but to actually physically go in there and so, yeah, 527 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:15,760 well this is what we're going to do. I say, dude, you 528 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:21,840 need to see a white coat doctor right away, because I don't care how 529 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,639 or what service you've done for your country or whether you're a black belt in 530 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,760 karate or whatever. I mean, it's just like, no, I just 531 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:35,159 thought what that guy thinking. I mean, if if he got some real 532 00:41:35,559 --> 00:41:37,320 fantastic photographs, you say, right, we'll stick it. We'll go for 533 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:43,760 a weekend and we'll stay in a hide and you know, we'll observe from 534 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,239 X amount of hundreds of meters away. We'll try and record footage or a 535 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:51,480 video or take pictures. I mean that alone, you know, I would 536 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:55,039 say that was very brave of you. But to actually go out physically hump 537 00:41:55,079 --> 00:42:00,400 on, It's just you would have to plan it down to the last detO, 538 00:42:00,639 --> 00:42:05,480 really would. I know one of your early episodes there was a guy 539 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,400 from Louisiana had three uncles that used to do it for the farmers full time, 540 00:42:09,199 --> 00:42:14,199 you know, years ago. But just to do it on the whim 541 00:42:14,199 --> 00:42:17,159 on a weekend. No, no, no, no, no no no, 542 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:23,000 I agree, Yeah, there's no future in that. Scott had another 543 00:42:23,119 --> 00:42:28,559 question, and this one reads, how about you're becoming a possible target for 544 00:42:28,639 --> 00:42:34,320 trophy hunters wanting to prove their existence with the dogny and carcass. No, 545 00:42:35,119 --> 00:42:40,599 certainly not around here. No, I mean certainly maybe stateside or Canada, 546 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:46,119 Mexico. Yeah, I mean, like let's say the guy in Oklahoma. 547 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:52,000 But here, No, it's just you say, we've got very strict firearm 548 00:42:52,079 --> 00:42:59,480 laws here, and I mean even guys going out we call it poaching. 549 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:01,360 You know, even going out with a like a two two or an air 550 00:43:01,519 --> 00:43:07,519 rifle. You know, there's very strict laws. I mean not unless you're 551 00:43:07,519 --> 00:43:14,480 actually a game warden on a private state. I know in Scotland they carry 552 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:19,880 out limited culls on deer hoods. But even then, I'm not sure about 553 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:23,679 the standard caliber of round. I think, certainly untill about twenty twenty, 554 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:28,280 a lot of game wardens are allowed to carry. I think you call it 555 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,239 at three oh six. We would call it at seven six two three three 556 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:36,760 eight. Yeah, so that's about seven I think seven six two or seven 557 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:42,400 nine two caliber. But I'm not sure on the grain. Yeah, certainly 558 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,880 the weight of patder and the bullet you're allowed to carry here, because I 559 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:50,639 know you guys stay side. You know you can have multiple sort of packages 560 00:43:50,679 --> 00:43:53,840 and you know in terms of weight and sides of the round, But here 561 00:43:54,400 --> 00:44:00,920 I wouldn't know what sort of grain you're allowed to carry. But certainly to 562 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:07,239 kill a full size buck, yeah, idea somethingthing you need above one fifty 563 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:13,000 grain for sem six two or maybe three or eight. But yeah, we've 564 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:19,280 got very strict laws here, so I really can't sort of say, um, 565 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:29,679 guys running around English squidloads with elephant guns or the Dietro cartridge trying to 566 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:34,360 kill one of these things. Yeah, that is a tall order. This 567 00:44:34,559 --> 00:44:39,039 next question came in from Chris Atkinson, and his question reads, you mentioned 568 00:44:39,119 --> 00:44:45,159 Barrassa Common Woods in Surrey. My wife walks the dog there every morning, 569 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:50,239 so I'd love to hear more on what you've experienced there. Yeah. Actually 570 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,880 it's this is favorite spots to walk. But we've had, like I said, 571 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:57,480 one Sunday, we had three howls. And this is during the height 572 00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:02,320 of the Chinese Luke, and you know, there was a certain amount of 573 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:09,039 interaction allowed in public parks and there was three hours and you know, missus 574 00:45:09,039 --> 00:45:13,280 and I are looking at each other and everyone's just carrying on like like there's 575 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:17,400 nothing doing. I just thought this is weird. I mean, most has 576 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:22,199 had the cold snorts, you know, the names all snorts in her ear, 577 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,159 let's get Jesus out of her and that that kind of put her off 578 00:45:25,159 --> 00:45:30,039 a bit. But yeah, they're around there. I mean one of the 579 00:45:30,079 --> 00:45:32,960 girls I used to work with, because I think it's long More Common, 580 00:45:34,159 --> 00:45:37,119 which is adjacent to Barossa Common, she saw one there in twenty ten. 581 00:45:38,039 --> 00:45:43,760 She's from South Africa and you know, you know, she knows her wildlife, 582 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:46,960 and she said she'd never seen anything like it before. But she said 583 00:45:47,039 --> 00:45:50,440 she knew it was canine from the shape, but it was like a cane 584 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:54,159 nine she had never seen before. So one hundred percent they're around there. 585 00:45:55,039 --> 00:46:00,199 I mean there's I mean, like I said one of the army wives on 586 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,679 a Facebook page, you know, she said, sometimes you can heal them 587 00:46:01,679 --> 00:46:07,880 at how there at night going at it. So yeah, they're definitely that 588 00:46:09,079 --> 00:46:13,840 Yea. Sounds like it must be a hotspot for him.

Well, that's it for 592 00:46:27,599 --> 00:46:30,000 all the questions, Mike, though, I guess we can get ready to 593 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,480 get out of here, but before we do, do you have any closing 594 00:46:32,519 --> 00:46:38,199 comments you'd like to share? All I would say is if anyone over there 595 00:46:38,199 --> 00:46:44,639 in the UK is thinking about it, and these things don't and I can't 596 00:46:44,639 --> 00:46:49,719 really give any advice to anyone thinking the same state side, all I can 597 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,480 say is wushally the best of luck. But I wouldn't do it because they 598 00:46:52,519 --> 00:46:59,519 seem certainly to understand if your intentions are good or bad. And let's say 599 00:46:59,519 --> 00:47:04,639 if you go good intentions, your warcime. So yeah, that's about it. 600 00:47:04,679 --> 00:47:08,519 Really, that's really good advice because there's no future in trying to hunt 601 00:47:08,599 --> 00:47:15,480 these things at all. But having said that, I want to thank you 602 00:47:15,559 --> 00:47:20,960 so much for coming back on and telling us more experiences and answering those questions. 603 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,800 I really appreciate it. Mike another problem, thanks very much, having 604 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:29,519 mane. Oh you know you're welcome. Thanks again so much, Have a 605 00:47:29,559 --> 00:47:30,079 great night.
