Jerry and 37 00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:10.759 the crew from Sasquatch Recon are back, and this time around, 38 00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:14.240 Jerry's diving deeper into his experiences in and around the 39 00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:17.520 South Mountains area here in North Carolina. And I got 40 00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:19.960 to tell you, I've been looking forward to sharing this 41 00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:22.680 one with y'all. I actually got to spend some time 42 00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:24.759 out in the woods with these guys toward the end 43 00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:28.879 of last year, got to see Jerry's property firsthand, walked 44 00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:30.560 through a lot of the areas he's going to be 45 00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:33.960 talking about tonight, and I'll just say this, when you're 46 00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.960 standing out there in those woods hearing somebody describe what 47 00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:40.560 they've witnessed in the very spot you're standing, it hits different. 48 00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:43.000 It really does. Now. 49 00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:46.560 Beyond the encounters and the location stuff, the guys also 50 00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:50.000 get into a really interesting discussion about dog Man and 51 00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:54.120 whether or not sasquatch migrate. And look, it's clearly all speculation. 52 00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:58.680 Nobody's got the definitive answer on that. But honestly, that's 53 00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:01.719 one of the many reasons this subject fascinates me so much. 54 00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:05.599 We're still piecing it together, we're still asking the questions, 55 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:07.639 and I think that's what keeps a lot of us 56 00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.319 coming back to this. But here's the thing that really 57 00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:13.759 caught my attention. Toward the end of their discussion, they 58 00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:17.039 talk about something that I have personally experienced and it 59 00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:20.199 might point to at least some type of migration or 60 00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:24.080 seasonal movement at the very least, and that's the vocalizations 61 00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:27.680 and activity spiking in the winter months. Almost all of 62 00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:30.840 the vocalizations and footprint evidence that we've experienced on our 63 00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:35.159 property has been late October through February. That's the window. 64 00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:38.080 And when Jerry and the guy started talking about that 65 00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:42.360 same kind of pattern. I'm sitting there nodding my head, going, yeah, 66 00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:45.000 we see the exact same thing. So I'd love to 67 00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:47.280 hear your thoughts on that, or really on any of 68 00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:49.199 the other things the guys are kicking around as they 69 00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:51.800 talk about it. Do you see the same thing in 70 00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:54.960 your research area, Do you have a theory on migration, 71 00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:57.759 or maybe you've just had an experience and you want 72 00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:00.120 to share it on the show. Shoot me in an 73 00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:06.080 email brianat Paranormalworldproductions dot com. I read every single one 74 00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:09.000 of them, and I love hearing from you guys. If 75 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:10.840 you want to hear more from Jerry and the guys 76 00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:13.759 over at Sasquatch Recon click the link right here in 77 00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:16.319 the show notes and head over to their YouTube channel. 78 00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.759 And one last thing before we get into the episode. 79 00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:23.279 This audio was recorded in a public place, not my studio, 80 00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:26.600 so there is some background noise here and there. I've 81 00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:29.560 cleaned it up as best I could, and honestly, I 82 00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:33.120 think you'll hardly notice it. All Right, that's enough out 83 00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:35.800 of me. I need to go take a nap. Let's 84 00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:36.399 get into it. 85 00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:40.040 I guess I'll start with the progression of how I've 86 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:43.399 got from where I was to where I'm at now. 87 00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:47.319 When I was seven, give or take, my granddaddy took 88 00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:51.439 me to see Legend and Boggie Creek nineteen seventies, and 89 00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.519 then when I was ten, nineteen seventy seven, at the 90 00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:58.879 Scholastic book fair at Mestner City Central Elementary School, I 91 00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:02.600 bought a Bigfoot, thee Bigfoot by b and Slaton Alanberry 92 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:07.120 Thus was born a lifelong interest, but at the time, 93 00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:11.240 up until ten years ago or so, it was purely 94 00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:14.600 for entertainment. And we moved to the South Mountains area. 95 00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:18.439 Being a person that likes the woods, I immediately started 96 00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:22.160 taking advantage of my new surroundings, spending days and days 97 00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:26.360 in woods. Began to notice tree breaks. I knew enough 98 00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:30.079 about it to know what I was seeing. You know, 99 00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:33.399 you find one or two, that's one thing. But you know, 100 00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:36.120 by the time I hit a dozen in many different 101 00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:39.720 places there, I reached out the loud Blackburn on email, 102 00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:42.399 said tell me about this. He said, yeah, you're seeing 103 00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:44.759 tree breaks and most of them probably point toward water. 104 00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:48.680 And he was right. So the next thing that was 105 00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:52.399 the progression a big step was I heard my first 106 00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:55.240 wood knock. That was in summer twenty fifteen. I was 107 00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:56.839 still working then, so I had to get up early 108 00:05:56.839 --> 00:05:58.439 in the morning. At five thirty am. I had the 109 00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:02.519 windows and I would knock from one of the nearby 110 00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:05.839 hollers rang out. I wasn't sure what I was hearing, 111 00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.319 but I knew it was something hitting a tree, and 112 00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:12.720 it started to gain momentum. After that, we started hearing vocalizations, 113 00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:18.680 the whoops, these weird growls. We would hear these howls 114 00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:22.120 that started off real low and very creepy. So my 115 00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:25.079 interest was peaking. I said, there's something going on around 116 00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:29.399 the South Mountains. August to twenty seventeen, my wife and 117 00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:32.680 I was driving and we turned right onto a dead 118 00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:35.600 end road. There was cornfield on the left, and of 119 00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:38.120 course it was August, so the corn was up all 120 00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:42.040 the way and there standing beside the road, five feet 121 00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:46.600 outside the corn was a booger. And what struck me 122 00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:51.120 the most was how broad shouldered that thing was and 123 00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:54.680 just how big and bulky it was, standing of course 124 00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:56.759 taller than the corn. And it took me a minute 125 00:06:56.800 --> 00:06:59.279 to process it, and I got the car stopped. In 126 00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:01.839 my mind, I'm going to back the car up and 127 00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:06.319 then point the headlights and Nancy said, hurry, it's moving. 128 00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:09.040 She said, it's going into the corn. And I got 129 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:12.560 the car backed up, got the headlights on it. But 130 00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:14.800 he had just went into the corn. But you could 131 00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:18.560 see it above the corn moving and you can see 132 00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:22.079 the corn moving along with it. Now, I didn't go 133 00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:25.439 through that corn like a bear wood, you know, like 134 00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:27.800 a bull in the china shop and just mow over 135 00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:31.560 the corn and leave a swath. It was moving between 136 00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:35.000 the stalks, and I would have to say fast but gracefully. 137 00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:38.680 The bug bit me right then, and I had to 138 00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:40.519 know things. 139 00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:42.439 Gets in your skin. Gotta know more. 140 00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:45.319 It's one thing to read about it. It's one thing 141 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:49.319 to hear. The wooden arts vocalizations are find the evidence. 142 00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:51.439 And I hadn't found a footprint up at that point, 143 00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:54.879 but to see one and it was twenty feet from us, 144 00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:59.000 I was hooked. It still entertains me to do this, 145 00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:02.040 to read and still how far from your house back 146 00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:05.199 a couple of miles, not even two miles. So we're 147 00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:08.040 there in the middle, we're there in a squatchy place. 148 00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:11.079 And then December of twenty nineteen, it was one of 149 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:13.600 my family members and he still has a career. So 150 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:17.000 I won't identify specifically which family member, but he and 151 00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:21.160 my daughter come to stay some days during Christmas vacation, 152 00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:25.040 and we've seen one down the woods next to my 153 00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:29.639 pasture bleeding more. That one wasn't fascinating as the first one, 154 00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:34.000 but it was being that close, even closer than my house. 155 00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:37.200 I want, what are they doing? What are they? All 156 00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:40.399 these questions, you know, all the questions you have. And 157 00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:43.240 when I started spending more time in the woods, started 158 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.159 spending a lot more time at night outside, go out, 159 00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:48.840 check on my pasture, animals, maybe get a chair to 160 00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.360 just sit and listen, take my dogs walking around. And 161 00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:55.679 over the years I've gotten to hear a lot of things. 162 00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:59.080 Our feed barrels being broke into. They have the locking 163 00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:03.279 bands on something with intelligence and a thumb has to 164 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:07.000 open doors. It's like pranks that's been played on us 165 00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:09.840 by the boggers. Take stuff out of the barn, just 166 00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:12.240 put it out in the pasture. Drag our water barrels 167 00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:16.440 halfway down the hill. We had our stuff in our backyard. 168 00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:19.879 We had a picnic table and some other things. One 169 00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:21.600 morning on went down there and it was strolling all 170 00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:24.320 over the backyard and I was told, and I believe this. 171 00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:28.919 It was a juvenile or two entertaining themselves, just like 172 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:32.200 a human teenager dude beating on our house. I took 173 00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:35.120 a trip out west. Second night I was back home. 174 00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:38.960 I guess one of them wanted to meeting. He's still there. 175 00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.639 It beat on the front of the house about twelve 176 00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:44.559 o'clock that Now, it's been a common thing with the 177 00:09:44.559 --> 00:09:47.799 beating on the house at odd hours. That's happened a lot. 178 00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:50.720 It's happened a whole lot. Y'all live in a place 179 00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:53.919 where people generally don't like men out at night anyway, 180 00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:57.480 But you don't go creeping around somebody's house, because if 181 00:09:57.480 --> 00:09:59.440 you're found doing that at night, you'll be found laying 182 00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:01.919 there the next I've not got a lot of people 183 00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:05.399 to open up to me that's in my inner circle 184 00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:07.519 as far as where I live, except for one couple. 185 00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:12.279 When I started talking to other folks concerted efforts to 186 00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:14.720 try to get information, especially from these old times, I 187 00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:16.960 had a few open up, and I made it known 188 00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:21.320 that just a small number of people I was interested 189 00:10:21.320 --> 00:10:24.639 in it. Went to work at the store in case 190 00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:28.120 that mental store, Mountain New Grocery, and I hadn't only 191 00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:30.600 been hired a couple of weeks and the owner called me. 192 00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:34.519 She said, Fox is coming to do a documentary. I 193 00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:37.559 told them about you. You'd be willing an interview. I said, yeah, 194 00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:41.080 let me think about it. Called the dude I guess 195 00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:42.840 he was in LA. Said yah, I'll do it, and 196 00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:45.840 she silhouetted me, and this guy's my voice. He said, 197 00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:49.840 no problem, So they came. They did it. It aired 198 00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:53.399 in January twenty one, if I remember not. They silhouetted me, 199 00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:57.960 but they did not disguise my voice. So I thought, 200 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.840 I'm in for it. Ridiculed and that's why most people 201 00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:05.200 stay quiet about it. But really I had nobody that 202 00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:07.440 was ugly about it. One guy kind of gave me 203 00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:08.600 a hard time, but he gave me a hard time 204 00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:10.440 about everything. He was just that kind of dude. But 205 00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:13.879 all of a sudden, people started coming to tell me 206 00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:17.440 their stories. After a couple of years, you know, interview 207 00:11:17.759 --> 00:11:20.799 thirty people, which is my favorite thing. That's the thing 208 00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:24.519 I'm in love with hearing people's encounters. That's how I 209 00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:28.600 got into doing my little show. And the more story 210 00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.279 that we hear from other people that we feel like 211 00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:34.799 are credible, the more. It validates. I don't need anybody's approval, 212 00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:39.960 but I like hearing these stories because you know there's 213 00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:43.519 other people out there that originally felt the same way 214 00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:45.559 as I did. And you didn't want to tell nobody 215 00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:47.799 about it too for from people, But when you get 216 00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:51.320 to start talking about it, it does something for you, 217 00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:55.960 you know. Oh yeah, twenty nineteen. You and I had 218 00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:59.080 met in twenty twenty, so it would have been after 219 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:01.559 that that men and Dwight hooked up for the first time. 220 00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:04.080 I don't remember exactly when, but you and I became 221 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:07.799 friends on Facebook, and then I guess me and Dwight 222 00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:11.879 became friends by proxy because I wound up. I don't 223 00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:14.519 know why. I just picked the phone up one night 224 00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:16.720 and I sent the light a message said, man, we've 225 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:18.840 got some really weird stuff goes on that and I 226 00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:21.279 won't talk to something about it, and y'all I would 227 00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:24.960 trust y'all, And and Dwight called me. We talked about 228 00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:27.200 an hour or so on the phone, and then he 229 00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:30.360 came up, spent some time one night, and then next 230 00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:33.159 time you came and meeting you guys. Getting in Dirty 231 00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:36.519 South Squatching now sasquat free com was the best thing 232 00:12:36.559 --> 00:12:38.960 that could have happened to you in this, you know, 233 00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:42.159 because I needed somebody teach me stuff. 234 00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:45.559 Oh, you're in a great spy you know what I mean. 235 00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:47.360 I mean you lived there. 236 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:50.679 When we do stuff we have to travel hour to 237 00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:53.360 have right there and then love it. 238 00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:54.720 That's incredible. 239 00:12:55.399 --> 00:12:57.559 And you know there's been people, even people that's close 240 00:12:57.600 --> 00:12:59.720 to me then said why do you get to have 241 00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:03.039 all his experiences?

I've got animals to check on 244 00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:11.600 before it every night of the year unless I'm on 245 00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:13.879 you know, a rare occasion of me being gone on 246 00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:16.320 the trip. I've had a couple of close people. I 247 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:20.679 mean I'll basically cut ties with them because they said 248 00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:22.919 they didn't believe me. Let me energect this right. 249 00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:26.080 I would tell people that as I got into this 250 00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:29.480 step son, I would tell. 251 00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:31.639 Him about stopping showing a picture. 252 00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:34.320 One day, I said, hey, we've got some new stuff, 253 00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:37.159 and he had this really weird we'll come today and 254 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:41.000 I said, I said, do you think I'm pull up 255 00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:45.080 it or you don't believe me? No, he said, I 256 00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:48.799 do believe and it scares the crap out of it. 257 00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:52.200 So if you don't mind, don't shove me that. 258 00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:54.759 Oh wow. So I think some of those. 259 00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:59.360 People that are uku and whatever I think deep down inside, 260 00:13:59.879 --> 00:14:02.039 they don't want to think that these things ra actually 261 00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:04.399 out there, and they are out there. 262 00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:07.240 No doubt. I'm not a believer. I'm a knower. You know. 263 00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:11.120 One guy in particular watches all the televised beat Foot 264 00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:14.399 shows and eats it up and asks for seconds, not 265 00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:17.080 casting dispersions on any one show, but you know, there's 266 00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:19.639 some stuff out there that descripted both. 267 00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:19.840 You know. 268 00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:21.600 I've reached out to him and I said, I know 269 00:14:21.639 --> 00:14:25.360 you're interested in this, and he said he didn't believe me, really, 270 00:14:25.559 --> 00:14:28.279 and he sets on the safety of his couch, watched 271 00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:30.919 this stuff on this TV and invited him to come, 272 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:34.120 so we get down the creek. Bimal camp never took 273 00:14:34.159 --> 00:14:37.559 me up. So over time, I've given up some of 274 00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:40.200 those hard feelings I had, And what you just said 275 00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:41.799 makes a lot of sense, and I could very well 276 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:42.399 be the case. 277 00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:45.320 They don't want to admit it. He admitted that, but 278 00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:48.879 you know, I never even thought of it. Not everybody, 279 00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.399 but I think a lot that's scarcely crownphat it that 280 00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:54.399 these things ragually out there. 281 00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:56.720 They have scared me on more than one a cape. 282 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:02.360 Stay tuned for more sasquatch see right back after these messages. 283 00:15:06.039 --> 00:15:09.720 Absolutely encounters, you know, way down near the creek bottom 284 00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:12.240 checking old animals, or I had an animal missing. This 285 00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:14.559 has happened several times and I have to go looking 286 00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:19.720 for One night I was spotlighting looking for it was 287 00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:22.240 a blomber that had been sick, and they'll go off 288 00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:25.279 by themselves here. And I had a pair of red 289 00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:29.159 eyes in the woods. And then one night I was 290 00:15:29.200 --> 00:15:31.159 looking for one of my animals. I was way down there, 291 00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:32.600 all the way next to the fence, and I heard 292 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:36.720 whistle that scared me. And twice I've been hollered at 293 00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:39.720 at a cat that I thought was my cat. One 294 00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:43.600 night was going downhill, so no, no, you can't go down. 295 00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:46.039 I was going after everything in these woods will eat you. 296 00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:49.039 I got all the way to the bottom and I 297 00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:51.240 got close enough I figured out the cat was mone 298 00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:56.559 I looked down and my cats had followed me. Oh man, man, 299 00:15:56.639 --> 00:15:59.480 it was about to laugh about me. And suddenly, maybe 300 00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:03.279 third yards probably a little less inside the woodline, I 301 00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:06.360 picked two of the cats up because I could only 302 00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:08.879 carry two and I had my spotlight. Dang, and I 303 00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:10.960 went back up that hill like I was twenty years 304 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:14.399 older here and then is this speak that scared me? 305 00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:17.559 And then I wasn't even that far down. On the 306 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:20.000 second time, I got yelled at over to on the 307 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:23.240 eastern side from it had to be. It wasn't in 308 00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:25.879 the woods, it was out in this field that's next 309 00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:28.720 to me. Couldn't pinpoint where, but I got yelled. It 310 00:16:28.759 --> 00:16:31.840 was close enough that I felt it for that base 311 00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:34.639 sea vibrate. Its almost like you're standing next to a 312 00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:38.639 base speaker. And here's what I was told that they 313 00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:42.759 were probably at that late hour down there hunting deer. 314 00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:45.840 They didn't want her down there. I can buy that. 315 00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:50.279 I believe that I can absolutely. The closest I've ever 316 00:16:50.320 --> 00:16:53.600 came to getting hurt is the rock growing incidence. And 317 00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:58.039 my wife back in first week into August twenty twenty four, 318 00:16:58.200 --> 00:17:01.960 little creek, walking way downward creek, middle of nowhere, after 319 00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:05.799 we had heard two wooden knocks broad daylight, a rock 320 00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:08.200 come in from our left, which would have been the west, 321 00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:10.559 and missed her head by no more than six inches, 322 00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:14.119 sail right overhead landed in the creek. The old piece 323 00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:17.400 of courts about that big There's been four rock throwing 324 00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:20.440 incidents right there in our general area. The first one 325 00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:23.640 two hunters, father and son team. They was in separate 326 00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:26.519 tree stems, and the sun heard what he described to 327 00:17:26.559 --> 00:17:32.400 be eight like noise. He heard walking. This was zero 328 00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:35.799 dark hunter like five o'clock in the morning. It's still dark. 329 00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:39.160 Then he hears walking in the leaf lit there and 330 00:17:39.279 --> 00:17:41.400 it went silent, and he heard, and he said he 331 00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:44.400 just instinctively knew it was the sound of something that 332 00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:47.359 had been thrown coming through the trees and a rock 333 00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:49.799 that was a little smaller in the volleyball, cause it 334 00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:51.640 was still there. When I went to the investmentry that 335 00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:53.559 had hit that big sweet gum, he was in it 336 00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:56.000 and knocked the mark of the sweet gam This was 337 00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:58.680 in twenty eighteen. He said, the only thing I could 338 00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:01.920 do was stay in that tree. After that, he curped, 339 00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:04.359 held his hunting and say that I blame the second 340 00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:07.960 rock thrown incident, my cousin and some of my family 341 00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:10.119 came up and camped out there a night hike. As 342 00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:13.519 we finished the night hike was heading down the western 343 00:18:13.640 --> 00:18:16.279 end of that ridge. That's on the property and a 344 00:18:16.359 --> 00:18:18.400 rock came in from my right, which would have been 345 00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.400 from the north. I was in the very back of 346 00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:24.319 the line. French child was in front of him and 347 00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:27.119 it barely missed his head. There was a rock thrown 348 00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:30.440 instant where my friend's ran new jeep broad Daylight down 349 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:33.519 near the Broad River. Bam rock hit the top of 350 00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:37.599 it with sufficient force the scar of the roof. Then 351 00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:40.559 there was the rock thrown incident in the line. But 352 00:18:40.599 --> 00:18:44.640 out of everybody I've talked to that area, I have 353 00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:49.920 no stories where a person was hurt. None dogs. We 354 00:18:50.039 --> 00:18:52.400 have a lot of dogs that are missing. A dog 355 00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:56.519 that hung around our place was attacked by something and 356 00:18:56.559 --> 00:18:58.680 he wound up dying of internal injuries, but he had 357 00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:02.000 been slammed against a tree. Another dog, the big old dog, 358 00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:04.960 about one hundred pounds, dog, was found. He went missing. 359 00:19:05.359 --> 00:19:07.880 Neighbor wasn't looking found him in the creek bottom alive 360 00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:11.920 in the creek with his back brook. Prior to us 361 00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:14.440 living in the area, there had been an incident where 362 00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:18.920 somebody's dog then just absolutely beat the death. Many other 363 00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:23.119 stories in and around cases of dogs being killed, cats, goats, 364 00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:27.160 and pigs. That seems to be the list either they 365 00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:31.000 go just missing pig disappears out of a peak, never 366 00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:34.240 find it. The pig didn't dig out, something lifted it 367 00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:35.839 out of there. What can lift the pig? 368 00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:39.880 And if there was some other natural predator there wouldn't 369 00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:41.319 have been in a hack right there. 370 00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:44.480 Right on the spot. You know, there was the famous 371 00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:47.480 time period in that area from seventy eight and seventy 372 00:19:47.559 --> 00:19:52.400 nine where it was a frenzy of sightings and one 373 00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:55.079 of the things was mister Forrest Price found one of 374 00:19:55.119 --> 00:19:57.640 his goats with its neck bird. That makes sense to 375 00:19:57.680 --> 00:20:01.599 me because of the deer kills that we found relatively 376 00:20:01.799 --> 00:20:04.519 small area. You know, you find over a period of 377 00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:08.559 a year, you find a dozen twelve thirteen fourteen deer kills, 378 00:20:08.799 --> 00:20:11.440 various stages of decay, from bleached bones all the way 379 00:20:11.559 --> 00:20:17.079 afresh ribs, broken legs, broken legs yanked off. There was 380 00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:20.039 the one where the deer's front legs were yanked off 381 00:20:20.079 --> 00:20:22.559 together and we're still attacked laying there on the ground, 382 00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:26.799 but several had their necks broken. If that makes sense. 383 00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:30.799 I think they use certain areas. You've got the watchers 384 00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:35.640 and the chasers. Watchers will hide in all holler. The 385 00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:38.799 chasers will funnel them. They don't have weapons, so they 386 00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:42.039 just have to grab them, attack them, man handle them. 387 00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:44.400 In the quickest way in state them is break a leg, 388 00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:49.640 break the neck, and more than ample evidence of that happened. 389 00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:52.400 Nothing else in those woods can grab a deer and 390 00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:55.759 crush its ribs and break its leg or break its neck. 391 00:20:55.880 --> 00:20:58.359 You find one deer with a broken neck, there might 392 00:20:58.400 --> 00:21:02.759 be an explanation, but multiple that is even further convinced me. 393 00:21:02.960 --> 00:21:04.960 And I don't think they're at least in our area 394 00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:06.839 in the South Mountains, I don't think they're dangerous to 395 00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:10.039 first couple of years in that area, I would pack 396 00:21:10.119 --> 00:21:13.039 my bag, put a hammock in my back, might go 397 00:21:13.079 --> 00:21:16.000 on a seven eight hour hike, stop somewhere, string them up, 398 00:21:16.000 --> 00:21:19.000 taken out. I would camp out by myself. If they 399 00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:21.960 wanted to hurt me, they had plenty of chances. But 400 00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:25.599 I got spoofed. Back about twenty eighteen, I hit a 401 00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:28.640
