He's 25 00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:32.239 an individual that had left some comments on the Big 26 00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:35.599 for Society YouTube channel, and I always try to reach 27 00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:40.079 out to those comments that look very interesting, and thankfully 28 00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:45.439 Jason was able to reach back out, and so we've 29 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:47.680 set up a time for him to come on the show. 30 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.879 And Jason, it's great to finally have you on here, 31 00:01:50.959 --> 00:01:53.519 and you're going to share a few things that you've 32 00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.480 experienced over the years, but I'll let you go right 33 00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:57.120 into it. Man. 34 00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:02.040 Awesome. Yeah, I appreciate the opportunity. Hi. 35 00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:04.799 Everyone, I just want to stay out front and sharing 36 00:02:04.879 --> 00:02:08.000 all of these because they're very strange and I feel 37 00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:11.560 like I can't be the only one, and I feel 38 00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:14.080 like everyone needs to kind of share their stories and 39 00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:15.759 it's something that a lot of people back in the 40 00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:19.000 day didn't do. So I'm going to start ten years 41 00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:21.520 ago in Louisiana, I. 42 00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:23.800 Had a boot camp. I'm a Navy veteran. 43 00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.120 I had a boot camp buddy of mine out there 44 00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:31.759 just outside of Lafayette in area called Abbeyville. And I 45 00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:35.080 was actually quite a way, quite a few miles away 46 00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:38.400 from Abbeyville. There's a state park out there called Palmeadow 47 00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:41.680 State Park, and I was on the other side of 48 00:02:41.719 --> 00:02:46.439 the road, probably one to two miles down, very underdeveloped area. 49 00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:51.240 The floodplain or whatever got up to or the surge or. 50 00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.719 Whatever they call it, got up to ten feet out there. 51 00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:56.759 If you did build out there, your house had to 52 00:02:56.759 --> 00:02:59.960 be on stilts, and I think the minimum was ten feet. 53 00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:03.800 So anyways, my front mind, any buddy was like, Hey, 54 00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:04.960 come down here, work in. 55 00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:08.199 The oil fields. If you need to. I got ten acres. 56 00:03:08.280 --> 00:03:09.960 You can go out there and kind of do your 57 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.120 own thing and get your feet set. So I lived 58 00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:17.560 in those kind of woody swampy area for about two 59 00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:18.560 and a half months. 60 00:03:18.680 --> 00:03:20.599 I did a bushcraft. 61 00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.800 Thing and chopped down trees and pair of cord and 62 00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:25.280 kind of built this little. 63 00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:27.680 Cabin out there. And I had a dog. He was 64 00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:30.599 a mutt, but he looked like a Belgium. 65 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:33.800 Mountain wall with a beegle face, and he was about 66 00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:34.719 thirty five pounds. 67 00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:36.520 He was kind of like a military dog. 68 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:40.039 Mentioning him because He's kind of the heart of this story. 69 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:41.719 He was always on lookout. 70 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:45.879 I traveled a lot, so he just had military kind 71 00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:49.960 of characteristics. And my little hut that I built, he 72 00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.599 would sit in the doorway and just look out all 73 00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.240 night long, and I had a little fire on the inside. 74 00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:59.439 I'd be sitting to the right of him, in front 75 00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.599 of my fire and my door and dog to. 76 00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:05.080 My left, And two nights in a row he acted 77 00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:09.400 like a dog I've never seen act in this way. 78 00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.680 And he would snap his head back and forth. He 79 00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:15.960 was looking at something outside and would snap back at me, 80 00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:20.000 and I mean it was like so fast of him 81 00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:22.959 looking out back at me, out back of me, out back. 82 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:25.839 At me, and he was he would start to shake. 83 00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:30.759 He would even give me slight, very very quiet wines. 84 00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:37.639 Usually he was very aggressive, barking, going out, chasing things, growling. 85 00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:40.480 There are a lot of animals out there. I mean 86 00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:49.920 there were porcupine, not porcupine's, armadillos, raccoons, rabbits, bobcats, bears, hogs. 87 00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:53.759 So to see this reaction out of this dog, which 88 00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:55.519 I've never seen before, it kind of triggered me. 89 00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:57.319 But I didn't hear anything out there. 90 00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:59.480 A lot of times I would go out and try 91 00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:03.279 to scare thing away with him, but that night stood out. 92 00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:07.959 So the very next night it happened again, and this 93 00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:11.560 time I thought something was up. Before the night before, 94 00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:13.600 I kind of just let it go. 95 00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:15.560 I told him to calm down. 96 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:17.920 I didn't hear any noise near me, so I didn't 97 00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:21.800 feel like there was a threat this night. Now I'm 98 00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:24.480 a little bit more kind of in tune with it 99 00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:28.720 because this is so strange. And then I start hearing 100 00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:32.360 something by a peedle walk and it sounds heavy. Now, 101 00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:35.319 to let you know, my buddy's property had ten acres. 102 00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:37.199 I was kind of set up on the edge of 103 00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:41.959 a clearing, and this clearing he brought in dirt and clay. 104 00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:48.680 Maybe it was sixty yards long by sixty seventy yards 105 00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.319 long by maybe forty yards wide. 106 00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:53.560 It's not a big clearing. He wanted to put a 107 00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:56.000 little house there. He had a little tiny kind of pond, 108 00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:59.399 there was a canal. I decided to walk out when 109 00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:02.399 I heard the bpedal walking and it sounded heavy. It 110 00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:07.079 sounded loud, and when I came out, I only had 111 00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:09.639 a headlamp, and when I turned I'm looking at a 112 00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:14.639 set of eyes that were yellowish green. The eyes were 113 00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:19.079 very far apart. I'll never forget just kind of the 114 00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:22.199 mental image of what would look like with these eyes 115 00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:25.120 so far apart, and at thirty forty yards. 116 00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:26.959 I was still looking up at. 117 00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.319 It, like I had this feeling of I'm still looking 118 00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:32.759 up at it. 119 00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:35.040 I'll never forget it. I'll never forget it. 120 00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:37.399 The next day, I went and bought a huge flashlight 121 00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:40.879 because it was just so different. I mean, your whole life, 122 00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:43.360 You're used to human beings a certain size and the 123 00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:46.399 eye distance away, and it just. 124 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:50.040 It stood out. And I'm sitting there staring at these eyes. 125 00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:52.240 My dog came out with me. He's right on my 126 00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:55.360 right side. We don't have a gun or anything. I 127 00:06:55.399 --> 00:06:57.600 actually made a spear with a big. 128 00:06:57.480 --> 00:06:59.439 Knife I had. That's all I had. 129 00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:03.120 And I'm staring at it's staring at me, and I 130 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:06.120 just kind of got a weird feeling and was like, Okay, 131 00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.560 we're gonna I looked at my dog and I said, 132 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:09.800 we're gonna sit this one out. 133 00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.160 And I went right back inside. Never heard it walk away. 134 00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:17.199 The next day, I went out and tried to find tracks, 135 00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:19.639 but like I said, he brought in dirt and clay. 136 00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:20.959 It was really weird. 137 00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:24.600 If it rained, it'd be super muddy tracks, of course, 138 00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:28.959 but when it dried, it was actually like tabletop hard, 139 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.839 which would explain maybe why I heard it and explain 140 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:36.279 why there were no tracks. I originally thought it was 141 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:38.720 a bear, but bears down there pretty small, even if 142 00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:42.519 they stand up, they're six foot I'm six foot two, 143 00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:46.560 six foot three, and I'd assume I would see claws 144 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:49.439 if a bear stood up. At some point, clause would 145 00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:54.000 have dug in. And I never found any tracks. So 146 00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:57.639 that's my first story. I don't know what it was. 147 00:07:57.759 --> 00:08:01.199 Maybe it was bigfoot, maybe it was something else, but 148 00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:06.519 it was big. It had eyes far apart and on 149 00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:10.040 like an intelligence level. If it was there for two nights. 150 00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:12.040 The first night, it was just kind of watching me. 151 00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:15.120 The second night, it wanted me to know it was there. 152 00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:18.800 Like I said, I never heard it walk away, so 153 00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:23.360 it definitely stood out as something strange. So that's kind 154 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:26.120 of my first experience that opened me up. I already 155 00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:29.600 was into kind of the bigfoot possibility, and they're being 156 00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:33.080 things out there that are intelligent and stealthy, but that 157 00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:38.840 kind of opened up Pandora's box. Now currently I am 158 00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:42.080 living in a truck and truck camper. I'm raising a 159 00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:46.000 Belgium Moulinoa and I've been living in the National Forest 160 00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:47.519 for the past year and a half. 161 00:08:47.960 --> 00:08:50.279 I'm preparing this dog for Alaska. 162 00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:53.080 I'm moving to Alaska to buy property way out in 163 00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:56.279 the bush. I do plan on getting him a big brother, 164 00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:00.600 but he's going to be my right hand there. So 165 00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:05.320 my journey started in northern Idaho. This is what sparked 166 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.240 all of this in the comments, because I saw Northern 167 00:09:08.279 --> 00:09:10.000 Idaho Bigfoot story and. 168 00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:13.480 I have my own. I was in Sandpoint, Idaho. 169 00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:17.159 If you leave Sandpoint and you head towards Bonner's Ferry, 170 00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:20.480 there's a gas station on your left, maybe three to 171 00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:23.840 four miles down right there at the gas station, if you. 172 00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:26.440 Pick a left, that'll take you till you hit a 173 00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:27.120 dirt road. 174 00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:30.480 Then a big kind of open area for the snowmobiles 175 00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:34.000 and four wheelers to park their trails trailers, excuse me, 176 00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:37.840 and then you can just ride for miles. I mean 177 00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:41.360 you can take this route all the way to Court Lane. 178 00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:41.960 You can. 179 00:09:42.120 --> 00:09:44.960 I mean it takes you to other cities. It's a 180 00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:47.480 dirt road you can go far back on. Now for 181 00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:51.759 the first I don't know. Ten miles or so, you're 182 00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:57.320 you're along a river, not far down the path. I 183 00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:00.759 would stay all the time. There's trying to think of 184 00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.639 how to best describe it. But within two to three 185 00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:08.600 miles down on your right hand side, there's gonna be 186 00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:11.399 accesses to this river and you'll get to one to 187 00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:15.200 where there's a big You're gonna have this dirt road, rocky, 188 00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.039 bumpy getting down and you'll get down to the river. 189 00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:21.639 There'll be a campsite. You'll take it right more rocky 190 00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:27.360 going downhill. There'll be probably five campsites or so lined 191 00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:29.759 up down this river. 192 00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:33.679 With spacing with trees. I mean, it's a nice area. 193 00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:38.519 You'll know this part of the river if you explore 194 00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:41.440 that area, because this is probably the only place that's 195 00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:44.000 got really kind of a long stretch. 196 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:47.480 Of sites people can camp on. Anyways, I'm out there, 197 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:50.639 it's the end of the summer. Everyone's back to school, 198 00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:52.000 there are no campers. 199 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:55.080 I'm by myself and I'm out there with my dog, 200 00:10:55.879 --> 00:11:00.159 and it's dusk and I start hearing a LIFEbeat. And 201 00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:02.279 now I was in the Navy and part of my 202 00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:05.679 job was doing life booy watch. We would be on 203 00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:08.600 the back of the ship, and we're the last line 204 00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:12.000 in case you fall off, we're the last person has 205 00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:14.559 a chance of seeing you. And we also called in 206 00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:18.559 like surface to airships. But whatever the point is, as 207 00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:21.360 I had this booy that I'd throw off and it 208 00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:24.559 would start to beep, and that's what it reminded me of. 209 00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:28.000 So in my mind, I'm thinking someone's out there and 210 00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:32.600 needs help, And which is strange because the main road 211 00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:35.360 to the National Forest isn't that far. I mean it 212 00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:39.320 might be fifty yards from the river, and the section 213 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.840 I'm n's pretty low. So when you get close to 214 00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:44.840 that main road, it's kind of a vertical maybe twenty 215 00:11:44.840 --> 00:11:49.279 foot vertical up to the main road, and the noise 216 00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:52.600 the life beacon is coming right next what's coming from 217 00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:55.519 right next to the road, And as I try to 218 00:11:55.559 --> 00:11:59.919 find this beacon, it's a very dense kind of all 219 00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:03.159 off the beaten path as far as the campsites go, 220 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:05.759 but right next to the main road, and I'm getting 221 00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:09.159 closer to it. My dog at the time, he was 222 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:13.039 probably a ten month old Belgium mount While he picked 223 00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:14.799 up on nothing, he's having a good time. 224 00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:17.720 He's out there sniffing around. But when I get really. 225 00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:21.799 Close, I decide to get high ground in backtrack a 226 00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:25.240 little bit, get on the main road and look down 227 00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:26.399 at whatever this is. 228 00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:30.279 And as I get up there, it's. 229 00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:34.360 So dense that I can't see and it's getting darker. 230 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.639 So I decide, I just get the feeling that I 231 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:38.799 need to go down my truck. 232 00:12:38.919 --> 00:12:41.559 I have a high powered flashlight and I want to 233 00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:42.960 get my handgun. 234 00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:47.200 So it's probably a five ten minute walk to get. 235 00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:48.960 Down and back up, and I get back to the 236 00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:51.200 exact same spot, and I mean, I swear as soon 237 00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:54.039 as I let my foot down and I'm right there 238 00:12:55.399 --> 00:12:58.440 the life beacon and I didn't hear it where I'm 239 00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:00.720 looking where it was a life beat and is now 240 00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:10.440 behind me, across the road and possibly fifty fifty yards away. 241 00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:14.960 Now this gets a little weird because there's a campsite 242 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:18.080 over there that was overgrown. I mean, no one had 243 00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:20.519 gone through there. There was a massive like bitch I 244 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:23.080 had to go through to camp over there. And the 245 00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:25.720 only reason why I camped over there is because during 246 00:13:25.720 --> 00:13:26.720 the summer the. 247 00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:30.759 River spots were full, so I'd go camp over there. 248 00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:33.720 And honestly, I got there and I got weird vibes. 249 00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:40.320 There were probably six to eight trees bent over the trail. 250 00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:46.159 One was snapped at about twelve foot, And it's just 251 00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:49.399 strange because you would have to like tie these trees 252 00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:52.720 off in some type of way, and this trail was 253 00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:53.720 just kind of covered. 254 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:55.320 When I camped. 255 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:58.759 There, my dog would bring me antlers and like femur bones, like. 256 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:00.600 He would keep bringing me bound as he would go 257 00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:03.840 off into the wilderness and find stuff. I heard a 258 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:08.360 wood knock out there at night, my dog would. 259 00:14:08.039 --> 00:14:11.759 Lose his mind. Something would be outside of our camper. 260 00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:14.200 Big for Society would be right back. 261 00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:36.200 After these messages, I tried to hike past the bent 262 00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:40.320 trees and I just got really bad vibes and I 263 00:14:40.360 --> 00:14:42.759 was like, no, I'm not going up this way. 264 00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:44.240 I'm not doing it. 265 00:14:44.639 --> 00:14:48.080 So I already had this weird history of this campsite, 266 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.759 and now the beeping or the life beacon is coming 267 00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:55.480 from over there. And I do want to say that 268 00:14:55.600 --> 00:14:59.679 when I first heard this life beacon, I was recognizing 269 00:14:59.720 --> 00:15:05.279 the shifting. It sounded so mechanical and real. But once 270 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:08.639 in a blue moon it sound like a bird. Once 271 00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:11.279 in a blue moon, it would like beat for twenty 272 00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:15.639 seconds off for twenty seconds, beat for twenty seconds, off 273 00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:19.159 for twenty seconds. But I was just recognizing slight changes 274 00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:21.840 in the patterns. So at this point, now that I'm 275 00:15:21.879 --> 00:15:24.759 hearing this beat over here in this area that already 276 00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:29.000 got weird vibes and wood knocks, And I even saw 277 00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:30.879 something one morning when I pulled out of there. 278 00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:32.960 I assumed it was the butt of a moose. 279 00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:37.279 If not, it was the shoulder of something big and 280 00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:39.200 it just stepped out of the way. 281 00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:39.360 Yeah. 282 00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:43.320 Anyways, that area, I just had all these weird, weird 283 00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:46.679 things happen, and then, like I said, those, I was 284 00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:50.519 recognizing patterns being off. So I'm getting over to this 285 00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:54.879 campsite right where the trees are bent over and the 286 00:15:55.600 --> 00:15:59.440 life beacon is right on the other side, and I 287 00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:02.799 decided this isn't worth it anymore. 288 00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:05.679 I'm like, this is too weird. 289 00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:09.399 I think I'm cool with my adventures and trying to 290 00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:14.279 save somebody. This no longer seems like someone's in need 291 00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:17.600 of help. It's getting too weird, and I decide to 292 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:19.879 walk back. So now I come down this little trail 293 00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:23.159 in this campsite, I get back on the main road, 294 00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:27.200 walk down twenty yards not far, and then boom a 295 00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:30.159 bank or right, and then I go down this path 296 00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:32.960 and I get down to that campsite, and then you 297 00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:37.840 take it right to access the other campsites. As soon 298 00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:40.279 as I take that right, I swear to you. To 299 00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:44.759 my left across the campsite that I'm turning away from 300 00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:45.440 in those. 301 00:16:45.240 --> 00:16:47.120 Woods, I'm hearing the life beacon. 302 00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:53.279 So I in my mind, I went from tracking something's 303 00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:56.879 now something's tracking me, and it's letting me know that's 304 00:16:56.960 --> 00:16:58.440 tracking me, and. 305 00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:02.480 Good little ways for my camper. I keep walking. 306 00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:05.720 My gun's on my hip, and my dog this whole 307 00:17:05.759 --> 00:17:07.200 time hasn't. 308 00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:08.920 Picked up on anything. 309 00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:11.759 I'm blown away at this point because how is he 310 00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:15.119 not picking up on this? He is young, but he 311 00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:19.759 actually saved us from a mountain lion that was stalking us, so. 312 00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:22.279 I have faith in him. It's kind of crazy he 313 00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:23.440 never picked up on anything. 314 00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:26.920 But anyways, I get down to my my truck camper 315 00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:28.799 and I'm in my mind, I'm like, no. 316 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:29.519 It might just. 317 00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:35.880 You just relax, watch a movie and we'll go to bend. 318 00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:39.960 And I laid down. Within five minutes I heard a 319 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:41.720 scream holler. 320 00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:43.400 I mean it was like a hoo. 321 00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:46.920 My first my first thought was an owl, but it 322 00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:49.960 was like a hoot holler. 323 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:51.799 Screams. 324 00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:55.359 I don't I don't even know, and it trickled down 325 00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:59.000 as it got really loud, and then it trickled down 326 00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:03.559 to a row. I've been near alligators, like at that 327 00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:09.319 Palmetto State Park in Louisiana. I went into primitive camping. 328 00:18:09.440 --> 00:18:12.880 I heard alligators and they sound like lions. I mean 329 00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:16.519 they the My dog was shaken during that too, I 330 00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:19.160 mean they they have a depth. 331 00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:23.599 That just you can feel it. And it was the 332 00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:24.599 same thing. 333 00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:29.400 With this this, this, this holler, this hoot. Whatever created 334 00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:34.559 this noise was massive, absolutely massive. 335 00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:35.880 And I and it and it happened twice. 336 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:39.119 I don't know if it was two separate ones, because 337 00:18:39.119 --> 00:18:42.160 the second one wasn't as loud, but. 338 00:18:42.160 --> 00:18:45.480 It was close and it was exact same. 339 00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:49.839 It was a hoop, it was a holler, and it 340 00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:53.160 just slowly worked its way down to this this growl, 341 00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:57.200 and I can't imagine it was more than forty yards away. 342 00:18:57.960 --> 00:19:00.000 I'm not gonna lie I want to meet big Foot, 343 00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:02.640 but I really think it'd be cool. At the same time, 344 00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:05.039 if I do that, I want to be fully prepared 345 00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:09.680 because I assume there's good ones and bad ones, and 346 00:19:10.599 --> 00:19:12.960 it's not worth dying over, but I think it'd be 347 00:19:13.039 --> 00:19:13.839 it'd be really cool. 348 00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:16.079 I would like to meet him. But that night, I'll 349 00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:19.720 tell you what. I didn't have my night vision, and 350 00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:22.839 I didn't have anything that was large as far as 351 00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:23.559 weapons go. 352 00:19:24.279 --> 00:19:29.119 I had got a three fifty seven magnum revolver and 353 00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:33.240 a lover action, and I just I don't know if 354 00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:35.319 I can't see you, and I don't, I don't feel 355 00:19:35.359 --> 00:19:36.519 like I can defend myself. 356 00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:37.680 I didn't want to go out there. 357 00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:41.759 I actually decided to leave, and I had to go 358 00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:44.319 through the woods and find my adult's toys. 359 00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:45.200 He left everywhere. 360 00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:48.119 That wasn't comfortable, but I got everything. I got out 361 00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:50.759 of there and I went to Walmart. To be honest 362 00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:51.920 with you, I didn't want to. 363 00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:54.200 I didn't feel like they were out to get me. 364 00:19:54.279 --> 00:19:57.440 I mean, obviously they could have if they are intelligent 365 00:19:57.480 --> 00:19:59.640 and they wanted me to leave, that was probably the 366 00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:04.480 best to do it. And I will say one last 367 00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:06.640 thing that I'm going to end that story. That was 368 00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:10.880 northern Idaho, but I will say about ten miles from there, 369 00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:13.920 I did a work to live on a guy's property 370 00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:16.519 for forty years and I don't know if this has 371 00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:18.799 anything to do a bigfoot, but I just want to 372 00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:23.480 share it because if anyone else has experienced this, it's 373 00:20:23.599 --> 00:20:25.880 very strange. But he had a really cool piece of 374 00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:28.640 property forty acre. It was probably five acres down at 375 00:20:28.640 --> 00:20:30.759 the bottom that were flat, and it was all kind 376 00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:34.279 of mountainee. There was a little pond up top, and 377 00:20:34.519 --> 00:20:36.920 he had little campsites all over the place. 378 00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:39.119 And I'm in this place. 379 00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:42.640 And I'm building a fire and I heard something run 380 00:20:42.720 --> 00:20:48.960 behind me. It was right behind me, and I turned 381 00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:52.759 and nothing was there. It's probably one of the only 382 00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:56.839 times in my life I questioned like my sanity because 383 00:20:56.880 --> 00:20:59.359 it seemed so real. And I looked at my dog 384 00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:03.400 and he didn't pick up on it. But Belgium's are crazy. 385 00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:06.079 He wants to choose sticks that are on fire. He 386 00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:09.799 was so into the fire. I wasn't too surprised. But 387 00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:13.920 then I heard a growl. I heard something growl at me. 388 00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:17.319 And the funny thing is me and my dog both 389 00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:20.319 looked into the direction of the growl. We both looked 390 00:21:20.359 --> 00:21:23.279 at each other, and then we both looked in the direction. 391 00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:27.359 So I realized that I wasn't crazy. 392 00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:31.599 And this area of his property hit thinned out, so 393 00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:33.319 there was really no place to hide. 394 00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:37.839 I mean, it wasn't thick like national forests. So I'm 395 00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:39.480 just throwing that out there. I don't know if anyone 396 00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:42.039 else has experienced anything like that, but. 397 00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:46.920 Something ran behind me, man, and then not far in 398 00:21:46.960 --> 00:21:48.920 front of us. I mean, if I had to guess 399 00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:52.440 it was, it was close twenty thirty yards and heard 400 00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:53.240 it growl. 401 00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:55.839
