I'm really confused. All I saw was 23 00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:21.000 my dog coming over the fence and they was dead. 24 00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:23.159 And once he hit the grill, I didn't see any cars. 25 00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:25.120 All I saw was my dog coming over the fence. 26 00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:42.000 One. 27 00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:42.719 What are you reporting? 28 00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:47.159 We got some wond or something crawling. 29 00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:47.560 Around out here? 30 00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:55.719 Did you see what it was? 31 00:01:55.719 --> 00:01:56.079 Was?

I'm out here looking through the window now 33 00:01:58.519 --> 00:01:59.480 and I don't see anything. 34 00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:00.560 I don't want to go outside. 35 00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:08.960 Point sure up?

I don't know. 38 00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:13.960 Easy am out there? 39 00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:18.240 Oh? The greeting sanks for joining me. Is friend Alaska. 40 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:20.919 What I wanted to share with you today comes from 41 00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:25.439 We'll call him Vincent. He is a doctor in Anchorage. 42 00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:29.919 It was really difficult for him to come forward and 43 00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:34.080 share because he was astonished and taken aback by the 44 00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.000 reality of some of the things that happened in remote 45 00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:41.599 Alaska many years ago. A very good doctor friend of his. 46 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:44.719 He would fly with his buddy to get over his 47 00:02:44.759 --> 00:02:47.879 fear of heights. His doctor friend who had the plane. 48 00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:51.159 Over the course of a few years kept talking about 49 00:02:51.199 --> 00:02:54.159 this little cabin that he was envisioning building at this 50 00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:57.319 place called Moose Lake. There's several Moose Lakes, probably a 51 00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:00.639 thousand depending on who you ask. For privacy reasons, we'll 52 00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:04.479 leave that aspect out of it now. Over the course 53 00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:10.039 of time, over the years, his doctor friend started saying, Ah, 54 00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:12.080 I'm just not going to have time. I'm getting ready 55 00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:14.439 to be moving out of state in a few years, 56 00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:16.439 and I would just hate to invest all this time 57 00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:20.439 and energy. Vincent, would you be interested in this property. 58 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:23.240 I could take you there and there's already a platform. 59 00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:26.360 You just have to finish the bill basically, and Vincent's like, 60 00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:29.680 let's check it out. So a few years back, his 61 00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:33.479 buddy takes him out there and immediately Vincent's sold. What 62 00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:36.319 he want is sold. It was a little four acre plot. 63 00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:40.439 He makes the arrangements over the course of about three years. 64 00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:45.319 He would spend one week every month of the summer, 65 00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:48.680 so he would put in three weeks of work every season, 66 00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:53.280 basically June, July and August. Three years goes by. Now. 67 00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:57.319 One of the things Vincent noticed is how quiet it 68 00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:02.039 would get in the evening after midday, throughout the even 69 00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:05.639 dead quiet, no songbirds. He noticed that immediately, but he 70 00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:08.639 wasn't a well versed hunter. He always went well armed, 71 00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.879 of course, because his doctor buddy told him, Hey, I've 72 00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:14.879 seen bears in the area. Be aware. There's large moose 73 00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:17.720 around there as well. Be aware. So he was given 74 00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:19.720 the lay of the land. They'd fly around and stuff, 75 00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:21.800 so he knew the layout of the land. Over the 76 00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:25.199 course of building this place, there would be strange things 77 00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:30.720 that would happen. He would hear weird, mournful, sorrowful moaning. 78 00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.040 But the moaning was so long and so drawn out 79 00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:37.800 and loud, he couldn't find it. He actually went searching 80 00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:40.759 at one point for where this sound was coming from. 81 00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:43.720 Where this particular lake laid was at the base of 82 00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:47.399 some smaller mountains ish compared to other places, it would 83 00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:50.560 be huge, but it is Alaska. He went looking at 84 00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:54.199 one point and didn't find anything. He's walking along with 85 00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:57.560 the three hundred wind mag looking around. He had a 86 00:04:57.560 --> 00:04:59.480 pistol on his hip, he had a forty four. He 87 00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:03.759 was looking help this mournful, sorrowful person. Maybe they were lost, 88 00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.240 maybe they were hurt. Being a doctor, he wanted to 89 00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:10.199 go and check it out. Couldn't find nothing. Now on 90 00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:12.360 this particular trip where he went out looking for this 91 00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:16.160 sound to help the person. When he got back to 92 00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:19.720 where he was building the cabin, he noticed things had 93 00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:24.000 been moved around a little bit, his cooler that had 94 00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:27.879 been strung up. Basically, his doctor friend had made this 95 00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:31.920 huge tripod out of pine trees that he had flown 96 00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:36.920 in and made a tripod to raise your food up on, 97 00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:39.040 get it up off the ground and away from the 98 00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:42.000 critters as best as possible, because there was no real 99 00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:45.199 big trees to do it at. Right when he got there, 100 00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:48.639 he noticed that the cooler was on the ground, had 101 00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:52.720 been untied, not cut, not chewed, not ripped, untied from 102 00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:55.480 where it had been tied off at the base, lowered 103 00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:58.000 to the ground. The lid was open, and all of 104 00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:01.079 his meats that he had in there were on. He said. 105 00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.639 The package of hot dogs was left, which I guess, 106 00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:06.079 so you can always account for taste. So as he's 107 00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:09.199 assessing who nell's here, he's looking around, and of course 108 00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:12.399 here in Alaska we got this spongy stuff, so it's 109 00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:16.839 hard to make out imprints. But he was noticing big 110 00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:20.279 block like footprints, and he's like, gosh, it must be 111 00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:22.759 a really big bear, So he got really concerned and 112 00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:25.279 then he started assessing because he's a doctor. As he 113 00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:27.560 was telling me, he got real quiet and I was like, 114 00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:30.839 you're right, and he goes no. He would have these 115 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:34.759 flashbacks of how did this happen? How did a bear 116 00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:37.199 do this? So as he was doing the assessment in 117 00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:40.720 real time, at the point when this happened, he got 118 00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:44.600 this overwhelming sense of being watched. And at this point 119 00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:47.639 he was putting the roof up on the cabin. At 120 00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:50.360 the end of the day, nothing else happened, no more 121 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.040 mournful sounds or none of that stuff. So he continues 122 00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:55.199 with his bill, just chalked it up till something happened 123 00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:58.360 and whatever gets out of there. Just strange stuff like that. 124 00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:02.920 So that brings us up to last season. Now it 125 00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.399 was the very last trip of the season, so it 126 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:08.959 was last August. As soon as he landed and the 127 00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:11.439 plane took off, he was going to be there for 128 00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:14.680 the week. He had all his provisions, his cabins complete. 129 00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:17.279 He's got a couple of windows in nice little pot 130 00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:21.240 belly stove, just perfect for what he wanted, just to retreat, 131 00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:23.639 a place to go moose hunt, maybe find a caribou, 132 00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:27.000 if the woodland caribou were around or whatever. So he 133 00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:30.839 was basically at peace for the first couple of nights. 134 00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:33.759 He said it was quiet as hell, but it was 135 00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:36.199 the most peaceful he had felt in a long time. 136 00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:37.920 He had a lot of pressure at work and stuff, 137 00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:40.439 so being a doctor, I could only imagine people dying 138 00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:42.839 on you, and just I could just imagine. So as 139 00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:46.079 he was decompressing these two days, he really felt invigorated. 140 00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:48.560 So on the third morning, he got up and he figured, 141 00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:51.519 this lake is a bit cold, but I'm going to 142 00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:53.519 try to take a swim real quick, maybe do a 143 00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:57.319 cold water challenge or whatever. He just dives in, immediately 144 00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:59.519 regrets it, gets right the hell back out. So he 145 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:02.319 goes in and he's shivering. He starts up the fire 146 00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:04.439 while the fire is starting to warm up. When he 147 00:08:04.600 --> 00:08:06.879 got the chills and stopped shaking from the heat of 148 00:08:06.920 --> 00:08:10.480 the fire, he goes outside and decides he's going to 149 00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:12.720 fire up the generator and just watch movies the rest 150 00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:14.720 of the day and just rewarm up. He didn't want 151 00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:18.240 to get hypothermic, and being a doctor, he's very cautious 152 00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:20.240 about things like that because he knows he's still got 153 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:23.079 days there bad things could happen if he did. So 154 00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:25.800 he goes out, fires up this little generator, little Honda 155 00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:28.319 little twenty two hundred, which I think this is about 156 00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:30.720 the fourth to fifth time someone has shared that Honda 157 00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:32.919 must be making a mint off these little bastards. I 158 00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.399 might have to check one of them out. He goes out, 159 00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:38.039 fires it up. He's got it on a little platform 160 00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:40.879 out back away from the house enough to where the 161 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:43.759 sound doesn't interfere with the little TV and DVD player 162 00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:47.200 he has where he watches his favorite movies and seasons 163 00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:50.480 of shows or whatever. So since he was going to 164 00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:52.799 be inside all day doing that, he fired it up 165 00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:57.200 and he's got it going now. As the day progress, 166 00:08:57.240 --> 00:08:59.440 he got warmer. Of course, he was changed out and everything. 167 00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:02.279 So he goes outside for a little while and it's 168 00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.360 getting on into dusk, and he kept getting the creepy 169 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:08.679 feeling like he was being watched. He had heard some 170 00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:11.960 weird noises, but again he wasn't a woodsman, so he 171 00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:15.480 couldn't pinpoint what he was hearing, so he just chalked 172 00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:18.320 it up to a moose maybe or whatever. As he 173 00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:21.440 was going inside, it was dark enough off in the 174 00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:25.519 distance to where he could notice that there was something 175 00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:28.879 dark over not quite across the lake, but about a 176 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.320 quarter away around, because it was a pretty round lake. 177 00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:34.039 About a quarter of the way around across from him, 178 00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:36.559 there was this dark object. So he goes inside and 179 00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:39.320 gets his flashlight and he beams across there and he sees, 180 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:41.559 I shine, Oh, that must be a moose because it 181 00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:44.320 seemed pretty low to the ground. So he just okay, 182 00:09:44.559 --> 00:09:46.480 that's it was just a moose, no big deal, because 183 00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:48.559 he had seen moose in the area before, so it 184 00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:52.879 was like, eh, he just chalked it up right, goes inside. 185 00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:56.000 He watches movies for a little while. It's getting on 186 00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:58.679 into pretty dark, and he knows that there's only so 187 00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:01.080 much fuel left in the gym narrator, so he wants 188 00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:02.919 to go top it off so he could fall asleep 189 00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:05.840 watching his movies. So he goes out, He tops it off, 190 00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:09.480 fires it back up. Everything's fine, He's got his flashlight, 191 00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:11.440 he's got plenty of slack in his cable and all 192 00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:15.240 that goes back inside, and no sooner than he settles down, 193 00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:17.480 gets his gear off from being outside, his boots and 194 00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:21.080 his coat and stuff, all of a sudden, power goes 195 00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:24.440 out and He's like, what the hell you know that 196 00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:27.120 is weird? And he goes, I just topped it off. 197 00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:29.240 I wonder if it had a little pocketed air in 198 00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:31.120 the line. So I'm going to go out bleed the 199 00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:34.039 system real quick, no harm, no foul, fire it back up. 200 00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:36.879 So he goes out, and the first thing he knows 201 00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:38.919 is when he comes around the back corner of his cabin. 202 00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:41.679 Because this is only a ten x twelve little cabin. 203 00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:45.559 It was two by six construction, plywood sided, insulated, but 204 00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:47.879 he didn't have any dry wall. It was just vapor 205 00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:51.039 barrier on the inside. At this point, now, when he 206 00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:54.360 goes out, goes around the corner, he just looking at 207 00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:56.120 the trail. First thing you want to do is check 208 00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:57.960 to make sure the plug didn't fall out. But he 209 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.120 noticed the line was taunt was slacked just a little 210 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.799 bit ago. So what he does is, I was weird. 211 00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:06.840 Maybe my platform vibrated. Because this is what's going on 212 00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:10.039 in his head at the time. Vincent was very methodical 213 00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:12.919 when he was sharing this stuff. He just figured the 214 00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:15.720 little platform he built for the thing, he just used 215 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:18.440 old dunnage underneath, and he figured it vibrated. The little 216 00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:22.360 generator vibrated and little thing collaps pulled away, right, makes sense, 217 00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:26.679 So he goes back over there and he notices there's 218 00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:32.080 no generator none. So he's what the immediately, hair stands 219 00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:34.360 up on the back of his neck. He's feeling watched. 220 00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:38.399 He's looking around. He's doing this kind of one eighty 221 00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:40.960 just going around, looking around the immediate area. He doesn't 222 00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:45.720 notice anything. And then he moves his flashlight up. Now 223 00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:49.759 where his little generator set was just a little bit 224 00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:53.360 around the corner of this little I call him islands 225 00:11:53.360 --> 00:11:55.879 of black spruce. There was about five or six black 226 00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:58.600 spruce all in a little group, and he had the 227 00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:01.639 platform just around to where it pushes the sound out 228 00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:04.279 away from the cabin. So he looks up. Now this 229 00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:08.279 is fifteen feet away. He looks up and beams into 230 00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:11.360 that little cluster of trees. Now from where he was 231 00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:14.600 just around a little corner, he's almost facing back towards 232 00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:18.960 his cabin. Okay, And when he beams and looks, there's 233 00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:21.919 eye shine. He said, the eye shine was roughly about 234 00:12:21.960 --> 00:12:25.240 a foot apart. This thing was towering almost to the 235 00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:27.639 tops of these trees. And he estimated those trees to 236 00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:30.480 be at least twelve foot tall. And this eye shine 237 00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:33.840 was right there, and this thing gruffed, ooh, let out 238 00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:37.360 this low, bellowing growl. He said he felt it in 239 00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:40.159 the ground and in his chest. He was out there 240 00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:42.279 without his gun. He was just out there to fix 241 00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:47.080 the generator. So immediately he hunkers down and is trying 242 00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:49.120 to figure out what the hell is going on here, 243 00:12:49.159 --> 00:12:51.799 because he said he was in shock instantly. He just 244 00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:54.840 couldn't accept what was going on. It wasn't making sense 245 00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:57.200 in his mind. So he said, as he was sitting there, 246 00:12:57.240 --> 00:13:03.159 just stuck and flabbergasted, he found himself whirling around, and 247 00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:06.399 he said he didn't even realize he was running until 248 00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:10.360 he was inside the cabin. So his fight or flight 249 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:13.200 kicked in, and while he's trying to assess what's going on, 250 00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:15.279 his body says, screw you, we're out of here, right, 251 00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:19.279 Because he was gone, He doesn't remember going from staring 252 00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:21.720 at this thing to being inside. From that point to 253 00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:24.759 inside was all a blur. He still doesn't know. He 254 00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:27.799 remembers a weird noise. He chalked it up to maybe 255 00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:31.360 a scream, but he was so panic stricken it was 256 00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:33.840 all a blur, right, So he gets inside, he slams 257 00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:37.559 the door. He's doing everything he can. It's dark inside right. 258 00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:39.720 All he has is this flashlight. So once he's got 259 00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.320 the door shut, he had already built a little gun racked, 260 00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.200 so he puts that up there is basically his locking 261 00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:48.120 system in case of bear was trying to enter at 262 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:51.320 some point, but he said he was on the floor shaking, 263 00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:54.080 like what the hell, What the hell? He said, he 264 00:13:54.240 --> 00:13:57.480 gathered up his guns. The generator was gone, so he 265 00:13:57.519 --> 00:14:00.159 doesn't know what the hell to do. He's sitting there, 266 00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:02.559 squirming around on the floor a little ways, he said, 267 00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:05.879 He's not sure how much time had passed, but just 268 00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:08.159 as he was pulling himself together, all of a sudden wham, 269 00:14:08.399 --> 00:14:11.080 the whole place just shakes and it was a whoa. 270 00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:16.600 The backside of the wall where whatever hit. He turned 271 00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:20.000 and pointed, and the wall was pushed in a little bit, 272 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.840 had a weird shape to it in the corner of 273 00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:23.879 a box, kind of looked to it because it was 274 00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:26.440 pushed in really good. He was like, what the hell. 275 00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:29.399 He ended up staying up all night, not being able 276 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:31.720 to sleep because of what's going on. Wee hours of 277 00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:34.279 the morning when this light out, it's quiet, He's looking 278 00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:36.399 out the windows. He doesn't see anything. He's got his gun, 279 00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:38.960 so he's going to go and inspect. His curiosity is 280 00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:41.480 getting him. He's freaked out. He doesn't know what this 281 00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:44.679 freaking huge thing was behind the tree. He goes out 282 00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:51.000 behind the cabin there and there's the little Honda generator smashed. 283 00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:54.960 This thing had thrown the generator into the back wall 284 00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:58.639 of the cabin so hard, basically left a huge impression 285 00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:02.799 of the generator in the back wall. It didn't compromise 286 00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:05.960 the building, but it cracks some of the studs. I 287 00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.320 build homes, Trust me, there's certain forces involved for them 288 00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:11.879 to get their rating and whatnot. And for that impact 289 00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:15.440 you're talking about a lot of force. Well over three 290 00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:18.879 thousand foot pounds are better, especially with it being skinned. 291 00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:23.200 That's an impact. And stay tuned for more sasquatch you 292 00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:29.960 o't to see. We'll be right back after these messages. Today, 293 00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:31.440 I want to tell you about a journey that I've 294 00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:33.679 been on for most of my life. Ever since I 295 00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:35.840 was a kid, I've heard tales of bigfoot and wild 296 00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:38.879 men while spending time with my friends and family. As 297 00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:41.399 I grew older and read more about the paranormal, my 298 00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:45.080 interest in encryptids and other things strange only deepened. That's 299 00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:47.080 why I'm so excited to share with you what I've 300 00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:51.759 personally become involved with The Untold Radio Network.

Visit www dot untoldradionetwork 314 00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:36.320 dot com today. 315 00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:39.480 And the generator, of course is cooked. It is cooked. 316 00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:43.200 So once he sees that he's crap, I got three 317 00:16:43.240 --> 00:16:46.399 more whole days. Hopefully the weather's good and the plane 318 00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:49.480 makes and back to give me so he's assessing. He 319 00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:54.440 goes back inside and he is literally petrified to go outside. 320 00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:57.480 The sing growled at him through the generator at his cabin. 321 00:16:57.919 --> 00:17:01.320 He's inside, He's trying to lie everything out, he said. 322 00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:04.240 He sat there and argued with himself. We had a 323 00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:07.079 little chuckle about it because I understand that self argument. 324 00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:09.759 So as he was going through trying to like, what 325 00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:13.400 the hell is this shit. As he's doing that, one 326 00:17:13.400 --> 00:17:16.680 of the windows drapes was open behind him, and so 327 00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:18.720 he was facing a small table and he was looking 328 00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:21.200 at a map. For whatever reason. He was trying to 329 00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:23.480 figure out if I have to leave on foot sooner, 330 00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:26.960 is there a route? Basically said, he was going over 331 00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:29.960 so many different scenarios. He was just panic, he said. 332 00:17:29.960 --> 00:17:31.759 As he was looking at this map, he's using the 333 00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:34.720 natural daylight of the open window behind him, and all 334 00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:36.880 of a sudden, it gets dark. So he was like, 335 00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:40.279 what the hell. He turns around and this thing is 336 00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:44.160 leaning down looking in the window at him. Freaked him 337 00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:48.000 the hell out. Man. He immediately grabbed the pistol off 338 00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:50.759 the table, turned around and started firing through his own window. 339 00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:54.559 This thing was gone. He fired through the window as 340 00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:56.559 it was moving out of the way of the window. 341 00:17:57.440 --> 00:18:00.160 He's freaking out. He doesn't know what to do, which 342 00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:03.880 I totally understand, totally understand. So what he ends up 343 00:18:03.880 --> 00:18:07.720 doing is backing up into the farthest corner, sat there, 344 00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:11.000 got a hold of the rifle, lit the stove, wanted 345 00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:13.480 to keep the stove going. He thought maybe the smoke 346 00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:16.559 coming out of the chimney would drive it away. He 347 00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:20.240 was spitballing. He didn't really have any idea whether it 348 00:18:20.400 --> 00:18:22.799 work or not. It's just smoke coming out of a stack. 349 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:24.759 But in that moment, he was so freaked out he 350 00:18:24.880 --> 00:18:28.599 was reaching for anything. He had gotten his bare spray out. 351 00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:32.160 He said. He was basically set back into the corner, 352 00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:36.119 rifle across his lap pistol. On top of that, He 353 00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:40.680 said he sat there and was petrified for at least 354 00:18:40.720 --> 00:18:42.680 a day and a half. He said it was about 355 00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:46.039 midday when he came out of his panic fright, his fog, 356 00:18:46.559 --> 00:18:48.319 as he called it. He said it was a severe 357 00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:51.799 brain fog. He comes out of it and decides, you 358 00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:54.000 know what, I gotta make sure I'm okay. I'm going 359 00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:55.640 to make a stand. I got a rifle, I got 360 00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:59.079 a pistol. I gotta make sure I stand my ground 361 00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.640 with whatever this is. Otherwise I'm done. So as he 362 00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:04.680 goes out the door, he said he would take a 363 00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:07.000 step and then half step back, a step and a 364 00:19:07.039 --> 00:19:09.720 half step back because he's panic stricken. He said he 365 00:19:09.759 --> 00:19:13.200 wasn't right. He shouldn't have been carrying guns at that point, 366 00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:16.160 but he had to defend himself. He was assessing himself, 367 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:19.119 as you're in a panic state, you're probably a liability 368 00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:21.720 to yourself. He goes around that little trail he had 369 00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:24.960 packed down over the last few years to where the 370 00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:27.839 generator stuff is, because that's basically where it opens up, 371 00:19:27.880 --> 00:19:31.000 and he can see a little further. He gets around 372 00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:33.960 back there and he's peaking around the corner, peeking around 373 00:19:33.960 --> 00:19:37.440 the corner and across the lake in this lake is 374 00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:41.880 probably he guessed Tomate's about half mile long. It's almost 375 00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:44.480 a big circle. He said. It had also been referred 376 00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:47.000 to as like a frying pan lake, and moose Lake 377 00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:49.279 and whatever lake. People have their own names for these 378 00:19:49.359 --> 00:19:52.880 lakes up here. As he's looking around, the screen comes 379 00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:55.480 from way across the lake. He said, he damn near 380 00:19:55.559 --> 00:19:59.759 went fetal position because he was hyperventilating. He was not 381 00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:04.440 doing good, so he pulls himself together and realize, I 382 00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:07.079 need to get back inside. This thing is still mad 383 00:20:07.160 --> 00:20:09.799 about whatever. I need to get back inside before it 384 00:20:09.839 --> 00:20:13.319 gets over here. So he goes back inside. Now remember 385 00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:17.640 this is midday. So he gets inside and he's got 386 00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:21.160 both drapes open on the head opposing windows, one on 387 00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:23.599 one side, one on the other. One was larger and 388 00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:26.440 the one he shot through was a little smaller. So 389 00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:30.119 as he was sitting there, he realized that window's compromised. 390 00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:32.480 I need to do something about that window. And he 391 00:20:32.559 --> 00:20:35.319 knew just outside the door he had some plywood and 392 00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:39.079 stuff that he would put onto the outside, and so 393 00:20:39.119 --> 00:20:41.640 he figures, Okay, you know what I'll do. I'm gonna 394 00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:44.359 grab the board that belongs on the outside to keep 395 00:20:44.400 --> 00:20:47.319 bears out. I'm going to go and attach it while 396 00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:49.880 I still can, while it's daylight, it's open view, and 397 00:20:49.960 --> 00:20:53.000 I know it's way over there. So he just grabs 398 00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:55.039 his pistol, puts it in the holster, and goes out 399 00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:57.640 the door and gets his board, goes around and as 400 00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:00.799 he's attaching it. He just gets done attaching it, and 401 00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:03.680
