1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Now one of your putty. I got a string going

2
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>on here something just because my dog. Something killed your dog.

3
00:00:06.919 --> 00:00:07.320
<v Speaker 2>My dog.

4
00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:09.320
<v Speaker 1>We're flying through the or over the tree. I don't

5
00:00:09.359 --> 00:00:14.400
<v Speaker 1>know how it did it, Okay, Damn, I'm really confused.

6
00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:16.480
<v Speaker 1>All I saw was my dog coming over the fence

7
00:00:16.519 --> 00:00:18.239
<v Speaker 1>and he was dead. And once you hit the ground, like,

8
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:20.160
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see any cars. All I saw was my

9
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:38.960
<v Speaker 1>dog coming over the fence. Set what are you putting?

10
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:43.759
<v Speaker 1>We got some wonder or something crawling around out here?

11
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Did you see what it was? Was? It was standing enough.

12
00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:54.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm out here looking through the window now and I

13
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:59.000
<v Speaker 1>don't see anything. I don't want to go outside. Jesus Chraice,

15
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I thought of a bit about sixty nine.

<v Speaker 2>I don't know easy him out there, yeah right, oh hey,

<v Speaker 2>greetings Fred and Alaska.

18
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:14.280
<v Speaker 3>Thanks for joining me.

19
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:16.480
<v Speaker 2>What I wanted to share with you today comes from

20
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:20.799
<v Speaker 2>Nathaniel and Teresa. Nate and Teresa, they're in their seventies. Okay,

21
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:24.239
<v Speaker 2>they've been married really long time, like over forty years

22
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 2>something right around in there. They used to homestead and

23
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:32.519
<v Speaker 2>remote Alaska down towards Copper River, Valley. Now it wasn't

24
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:35.239
<v Speaker 2>in Copper River Valley proper, but it was in that direction.

25
00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.040
<v Speaker 2>They had sold out to some family members and they

26
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:41.239
<v Speaker 2>didn't want the place put on blast. I respect it now,

27
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:43.840
<v Speaker 2>going back in time, when they first started a homestead

28
00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:46.239
<v Speaker 2>in this place, it took them a number of years

29
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:50.599
<v Speaker 2>to get things logistically laid out. They had to get

30
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:53.439
<v Speaker 2>the road in access road, they had to clear in

31
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:55.760
<v Speaker 2>some of the lot so they could build, and it

32
00:01:55.799 --> 00:01:58.599
<v Speaker 2>was a process. But over the course of those initial

33
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:01.120
<v Speaker 2>years there was a lot of strange things that they

34
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:03.280
<v Speaker 2>didn't know what the hell was causing it, with stuff

35
00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:06.959
<v Speaker 2>coming up missing, different things just showing up being random places.

36
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:10.159
<v Speaker 2>A couple of the tree stumps were ripped out of

37
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:13.000
<v Speaker 2>the ground, and Nate specified that the ones that were

38
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:15.400
<v Speaker 2>ripped out of the ground were the ones that were

39
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:17.599
<v Speaker 2>cut off higher because at one point he was going

40
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:19.639
<v Speaker 2>through with the cat and some of the trees he

41
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:22.560
<v Speaker 2>was just cutting off his eight foot He had intended

42
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>on using those stumps as beginnings of a lean two

43
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:28.560
<v Speaker 2>shed for firewood and stuff like that.

44
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:30.960
<v Speaker 3>He was just pre planning and doing his thing.

45
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:32.919
<v Speaker 2>He said, there was a couple of those over the

46
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:35.080
<v Speaker 2>first few years that ended up getting ripped out of

47
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.719
<v Speaker 2>the ground and turned upside down with the roots exposed.

48
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:40.840
<v Speaker 2>He was like, who in the hell's doing this? How

49
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:43.400
<v Speaker 2>the hell did they rip it out with ball and

50
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:45.439
<v Speaker 2>all yeah and turn it upside down? It was like

51
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:48.039
<v Speaker 2>and there was no mechanical marks. There was you know,

52
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:49.599
<v Speaker 2>other heavy equipment signed in the area.

53
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:52.120
<v Speaker 3>So he was just it was like, what the hell?

54
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:54.280
<v Speaker 2>But things like that were happening and he had no

55
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:55.840
<v Speaker 2>answer for you, and what do you do with that shit?

56
00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:58.919
<v Speaker 3>And from what he was saying, there was a multitude

57
00:02:58.919 --> 00:02:59.159
<v Speaker 3>of things.

58
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:01.319
<v Speaker 2>Screams in the mo He said those were the most

59
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 2>jarring because it reverberated through the whole place, made it real,

60
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:06.400
<v Speaker 2>like what the hell's going on?

61
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:07.680
<v Speaker 3>Which I could totally understand.

62
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.599
<v Speaker 2>That's some jarring to the system, especially when there's not

63
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:14.000
<v Speaker 2>any wheelhouse about the Harryman. Okay, they're not alasking natives,

64
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.639
<v Speaker 2>but they're alasking. So when things end up coming to

65
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:20.719
<v Speaker 2>a head, all right, they're about seven years in and

66
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.919
<v Speaker 2>there's things happening here and there. It's nothing constant, continuous,

67
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:27.280
<v Speaker 2>but enough happens often enough to where it's like, what

68
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:29.439
<v Speaker 2>the hell's going on? And so they started asking some

69
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:32.039
<v Speaker 2>of the people they were meeting that live nearby near

70
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:34.439
<v Speaker 2>glenn Allen and some other places, Lake Louise and what

71
00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.000
<v Speaker 2>have you. Has anyone else's experienced this? Do you know

72
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 2>of anyone doing any hyjinks out here or whatever? And

73
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:42.960
<v Speaker 2>one Native man pulled them aside at one point they

74
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:44.800
<v Speaker 2>were coming out of the lodge there eating at Lake

75
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:48.479
<v Speaker 2>Lucille and told them, hey, you got to be very careful.

76
00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:52.439
<v Speaker 2>The Harryman will cause problems, are vindictive. You got to

77
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 2>be careful. And Harry, what is this? It wasn't in

78
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:57.919
<v Speaker 2>their wheelhouse, So he broke it down for him and said, hey,

79
00:03:58.159 --> 00:03:58.680
<v Speaker 2>is what it is.

80
00:03:58.680 --> 00:03:59.520
<v Speaker 3>You'd believe me or not.

81
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Obviously you're dealing with it, so you look at your

82
00:04:01.960 --> 00:04:05.759
<v Speaker 2>evidence and get real. And so after explaining it to

83
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 2>him and everything, they were like, wow, that's crazy. At

84
00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 2>the same time, they had stuff happening at their place

85
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:15.280
<v Speaker 2>and they could not account for it whatsoever. So they

86
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:17.839
<v Speaker 2>were leaning more towards it being in reality because at

87
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:20.439
<v Speaker 2>the time they hadn't seen anything, no visuals, no, not

88
00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:24.040
<v Speaker 2>in just strange activity. Within a month of having this conversation,

89
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:27.560
<v Speaker 2>Teresa went out in the morning. They had started their

90
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:29.439
<v Speaker 2>chickens and all that right when she went out to

91
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:33.800
<v Speaker 2>the coop. This was early spring, it was plenty of daylight.

92
00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:36.160
<v Speaker 2>She always carried a shotgun because there was some bear

93
00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:39.399
<v Speaker 2>activity and stuff. They weren't horribly far from the Copper River,

94
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:40.920
<v Speaker 2>salmon NERVs.

95
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:41.439
<v Speaker 3>There's bears.

96
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:45.160
<v Speaker 2>It was Alaska, over forty thousand plus brown bears everywhere.

97
00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:48.920
<v Speaker 2>So she goes out carrying a gun was religious because

98
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:52.279
<v Speaker 2>of these natural predators and whatever have you.

99
00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:54.240
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't for the Harryman per se.

100
00:04:55.079 --> 00:04:57.240
<v Speaker 2>But as she goes out, the chicken coop's about sixty

101
00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:59.800
<v Speaker 2>feet off the front steps of this little house that

102
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.360
<v Speaker 2>they built, and as she's walking towards.

103
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:03.680
<v Speaker 3>It, she looks up.

104
00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:08.319
<v Speaker 2>As she's looking, she notices something behind it that shouldn't

105
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:10.199
<v Speaker 2>be there. Okay, because when you're going out, you know

106
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:12.399
<v Speaker 2>your property. You know when there's something out of place,

107
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.279
<v Speaker 2>something extra. There's some extra, and it was a lot extra.

108
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:19.160
<v Speaker 2>What ended up happening is as she's looking at it,

109
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:24.040
<v Speaker 2>she stops and just without even thinking, it was like autopilot.

110
00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:27.279
<v Speaker 2>She unslings the shotgun, is holding it. It clicked the

111
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:29.800
<v Speaker 2>safety off. From when she clicked the safety, it came

112
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:32.000
<v Speaker 2>out from behind the coop right and Now, the roof

113
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:32.680
<v Speaker 2>of this coop is.

114
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:36.040
<v Speaker 3>One sided roof. It was at least ten foot.

115
00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Now this thing was roughly, from her guestimation, a couple

116
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:44.199
<v Speaker 2>of feet taller. So in essence, she saw a rounded

117
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.720
<v Speaker 2>off head and shoulders right, no neck, it appeared, but

118
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.319
<v Speaker 2>it was silhouette because of how the light was coming

119
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:52.199
<v Speaker 2>up and the sun was coming up and everything, and

120
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 2>so it came out and when it came out from

121
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.879
<v Speaker 2>behind there, it was looking right at her, and that's

122
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:00.839
<v Speaker 2>when she swung the shotgun up and it took off.

123
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.199
<v Speaker 2>It ran to her left, and she's following with the shotgun,

124
00:06:04.279 --> 00:06:05.879
<v Speaker 2>and she didn't know what the hell. She was scared,

125
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:08.360
<v Speaker 2>and she popped a shot off in the air like

126
00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:11.040
<v Speaker 2>in that direction, but not trying to hit it. No,

127
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:14.199
<v Speaker 2>sooner she takes that shot. Nate already coming out of

128
00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:16.639
<v Speaker 2>the house right he comes out. He's in his boxers,

129
00:06:16.959 --> 00:06:19.680
<v Speaker 2>he's cussing and fussing, and he's got another rifle seven

130
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:22.480
<v Speaker 2>million meter mag and he comes out, is what the hell,

131
00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:24.680
<v Speaker 2>where's it at? Where's that he's sinking bear? And of

132
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:26.279
<v Speaker 2>course he wants to protect his wife. He's not going

133
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:29.639
<v Speaker 2>to play that shit. Well, Nate said, when he came

134
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:33.839
<v Speaker 2>out and saw her standing facing the coop, about half

135
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:35.759
<v Speaker 2>the distance between the house and the chicken coop, about

136
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.399
<v Speaker 2>twenty five thirty feet away. She was looking off to

137
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:40.000
<v Speaker 2>the right, so he turned and looked at the right,

138
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:43.600
<v Speaker 2>and he saw it hit the trees, come circle back

139
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:44.639
<v Speaker 2>around and stop.

140
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:47.279
<v Speaker 3>It made noise going in, he said. But when he was.

141
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:49.439
<v Speaker 2>From his perspective up on that porch, when he was

142
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:51.639
<v Speaker 2>looking at the top of the stairs, he saw it

143
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:52.319
<v Speaker 2>loop back.

144
00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:53.800
<v Speaker 3>Around, made noise going in.

145
00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:56.000
<v Speaker 2>Then it went dead quiet, and he watched it come

146
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:59.360
<v Speaker 2>and get low to the ground in the brush where

147
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:02.120
<v Speaker 2>she couldn't because from her perspective is all brush and

148
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.480
<v Speaker 2>trees over there. From his perspective, he saw because being

149
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:08.639
<v Speaker 2>earlier in the year, it hadn't all that undergrowth, hasn't bloomed.

150
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:11.439
<v Speaker 3>And taken over. The undergrowth hadn't just walked all the view.

151
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:14.399
<v Speaker 2>And so as this is going on, he's watching, and

152
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:16.519
<v Speaker 2>he starts yelling at Teresa, get in the house and

153
00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:19.000
<v Speaker 2>get in the house, and he's aiming the rifle over

154
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:20.680
<v Speaker 2>that way, and he says, I see you, I see you.

155
00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:23.759
<v Speaker 2>This thing realizes it's being spoken to and then looks

156
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:26.639
<v Speaker 2>over it and it stands up right, because he watched

157
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:28.720
<v Speaker 2>it crawl behind the brush and then saw it coming

158
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:30.839
<v Speaker 2>through the brush towards the front edge of it, and

159
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:34.439
<v Speaker 2>was watching Teresa like in an ambush position to see

160
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:37.720
<v Speaker 2>what she was gonna do. Ran in noise, dead quiet,

161
00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:39.879
<v Speaker 2>even crawling up. He said, he didn't hear a thing.

162
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:42.639
<v Speaker 2>He yelled at it, and when it looked back up

163
00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:45.120
<v Speaker 2>at him from the brush, he said, immediately he recognized, oh,

164
00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:48.160
<v Speaker 2>he's holding the gun at me. Jumped up right. And

165
00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:49.800
<v Speaker 2>when this thing, he said, when this thing jumped up,

166
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:52.560
<v Speaker 2>it blew the bushes apart and took off into the trees.

167
00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:56.160
<v Speaker 2>Now as that's happening, Teresa's already on her way back.

168
00:07:56.199 --> 00:08:00.480
<v Speaker 2>She heard this grumble growl bushes when she immediately turned

169
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:03.120
<v Speaker 2>swing to the shotgun that way and start pumping and

170
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>dumping boom boo, and Nate's yelling at her, stop shooting, and.

171
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:09.560
<v Speaker 3>So she stopped. She's what does that? Comes running up,

172
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:11.279
<v Speaker 3>passes him, gets in the house.

173
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:13.839
<v Speaker 2>Slam the door before Nate can get back inside, right

174
00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:16.000
<v Speaker 2>behind her, and he's pounding let me and let me

175
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.439
<v Speaker 2>indemn it. And so she came back unlocked the door

176
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:21.000
<v Speaker 2>because in her panic she shut and locked the door,

177
00:08:21.079 --> 00:08:23.959
<v Speaker 2>and poor Nate would standing out there. But anyway, nothing

178
00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:26.959
<v Speaker 2>funny about it. But I'm just envisioning marry couple and

179
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:29.279
<v Speaker 2>getting the door slammed the face and locked out, especially

180
00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:31.879
<v Speaker 2>with what was happening. But anyway, so they get into

181
00:08:31.879 --> 00:08:34.279
<v Speaker 2>the house, they retreat in there, they lock everything up.

182
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:37.559
<v Speaker 2>They screwed this dresser up in front of the door

183
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:39.240
<v Speaker 2>because they didn't know what this thing was going to do.

184
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:41.480
<v Speaker 2>And it just so happened that on that side of

185
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:44.320
<v Speaker 2>the cabin that was where the biggest windows were, it

186
00:08:44.399 --> 00:08:46.279
<v Speaker 2>was oriented in such way that they could see that

187
00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:50.120
<v Speaker 2>tree line easily from any of the windows on that side.

188
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:53.080
<v Speaker 2>So Nate took up position, had the window open, had

189
00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:55.399
<v Speaker 2>the rifle ready, and was scanning the area.

190
00:08:55.879 --> 00:08:56.840
<v Speaker 3>They were hyped up.

191
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:59.240
<v Speaker 2>They started remembering what that old native guy was telling

192
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>them about the harry Man and how they can be

193
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:03.879
<v Speaker 2>vindictive all this other stuff and watch out for their

194
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:06.279
<v Speaker 2>small animals and dogs and things of this nature. So

195
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:10.720
<v Speaker 2>after that calms down, some time passes a few months

196
00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:13.039
<v Speaker 2>and they're into the throes of summertime and the front

197
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:15.399
<v Speaker 2>of theirs has a fish wheel, so they're processing fish.

198
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 2>They're doing the homesteading thing, right, they're jarring up preserves

199
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:19.919
<v Speaker 2>and getting the garden going, and it.

200
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.480
<v Speaker 3>Just homestead life, just day to day life.

201
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Trust me, they hadn't forgotten shit about what had happened

202
00:09:25.240 --> 00:09:27.279
<v Speaker 2>with the chicken coop and everything, because they'd end up.

203
00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:29.600
<v Speaker 2>What had happened was is they lost about half their

204
00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:32.840
<v Speaker 2>chickens during that episode. The aftermath when she finally went

205
00:09:32.879 --> 00:09:35.360
<v Speaker 2>back on checked half the chickens were gone. There's a

206
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.000
<v Speaker 2>bunch of feathers and blood back behind the coop because

207
00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:40.120
<v Speaker 2>on the back side is where they would breach in

208
00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:41.879
<v Speaker 2>and grab the eggs listening and just went through just

209
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:43.879
<v Speaker 2>snatching the mouth and tear them up.

210
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:45.600
<v Speaker 3>Theyan forgot that.

211
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.279
<v Speaker 2>So what they did after that and over the course

212
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:50.720
<v Speaker 2>of the summer and doing their garden and building stuff,

213
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:52.879
<v Speaker 2>is they put up a nice big fence around that

214
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:55.639
<v Speaker 2>coop and they went and got a mass stiff dog.

215
00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:58.000
<v Speaker 2>So the dog was only kept in there when they

216
00:09:58.039 --> 00:09:59.639
<v Speaker 2>would be brought out and put on a chain every

217
00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:01.840
<v Speaker 2>once and whatnot, but it wasn't allowed to run off.

218
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:06.240
<v Speaker 2>The dog Over time got used to being in that area. Now,

219
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.120
<v Speaker 2>not a whole lot of time has transpired, okay, because

220
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:12.279
<v Speaker 2>we're going into the fall after that initial spring when

221
00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:13.919
<v Speaker 2>shit hit the fan and they had the visual and

222
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:17.840
<v Speaker 2>the chickens died. So coming into that fall they had

223
00:10:17.840 --> 00:10:19.679
<v Speaker 2>this dog now and everything right, and the fence is

224
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:20.360
<v Speaker 2>built and all that.

225
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:23.159
<v Speaker 3>Even though the dog's a puppy, it's pretty large.

226
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:26.279
<v Speaker 2>It's massive and they get big quick, being an adolescent

227
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:27.879
<v Speaker 2>pupp basically, it was still.

228
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:29.320
<v Speaker 3>Learning and it happened to be on the chain.

229
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:32.000
<v Speaker 2>This one morning, it was getting to the end of September,

230
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Nate went out was like, all right, we're going to

231
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:36.440
<v Speaker 2>put you in the fence because he was just having

232
00:10:36.480 --> 00:10:39.039
<v Speaker 2>a weird feeling all morning. He said the energy was off.

233
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:41.360
<v Speaker 2>There was something in the air. He just couldn't quite

234
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:42.919
<v Speaker 2>place it. But he was like, I'm going to get

235
00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:46.159
<v Speaker 2>you put back behind that fence. So he gets a

236
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:49.039
<v Speaker 2>dog put away. They don't go anywhere without someone being

237
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:51.919
<v Speaker 2>armed or gunn very nearby. Over this time as well,

238
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:53.840
<v Speaker 2>they also cleared out a bunch of the brush and

239
00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:56.879
<v Speaker 2>the underbrush and limb the trees up to six foot

240
00:10:56.919 --> 00:11:00.720
<v Speaker 2>some foot high so they have further view into the trees, right,

241
00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:03.639
<v Speaker 2>which smart thing to do anyway, And that morning gets

242
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:06.559
<v Speaker 2>the dog put away and it's coming back into the house,

243
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:09.720
<v Speaker 2>and he's looking towards his house and off to the

244
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:11.799
<v Speaker 2>right hand side of it, back to the back end

245
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:13.320
<v Speaker 2>of the clearing that had a big old burn pit

246
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:15.759
<v Speaker 2>back there, and there was still some smoldering going on

247
00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:17.600
<v Speaker 2>because there were burning stumps and stuff like that. And

248
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:21.080
<v Speaker 2>he noticed something big back by that burn pit, and

249
00:11:21.120 --> 00:11:22.919
<v Speaker 2>it was like, what the hell is that amount of dirt?

250
00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Because the coloration of brown, he thought it was a

251
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:27.120
<v Speaker 2>mound of dirt, and he was like, did we move

252
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:30.159
<v Speaker 2>fresh dirt over there? He was trying to like, why

253
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.399
<v Speaker 2>is there brown dirt? So he takes a seven millimeter

254
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:36.360
<v Speaker 2>mag off his shoulder and clicks his safety off because

255
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:37.759
<v Speaker 2>again the energy was off.

256
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:38.639
<v Speaker 3>He couldn't understand.

257
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:42.279
<v Speaker 2>And another thing he remembered in hindsight was the way

258
00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:44.559
<v Speaker 2>the dog was acting when he unchanged. The dog was

259
00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:47.000
<v Speaker 2>happy to see him as usual, but it was a

260
00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:49.919
<v Speaker 2>little extra anxious. So when he unleashed it and brought

261
00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:51.679
<v Speaker 2>it and put it in the fence, it couldn't scurry

262
00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:55.320
<v Speaker 2>in fast enough. And typically the dog wanted to play,

263
00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:58.080
<v Speaker 2>wanted to bounce around and get attention, did and it

264
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:01.279
<v Speaker 2>went in there quick, and so it was that was

265
00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:03.840
<v Speaker 2>playing in his mind the odd feeling, and so he

266
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:06.759
<v Speaker 2>starts walking back there, and as he's walking past the house,

267
00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.159
<v Speaker 2>the windows were open, and he yells up at Teresa, hey,

268
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:12.519
<v Speaker 2>you grab your gun and come here. And so in

269
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.679
<v Speaker 2>the meantime, the shotgun was still there, but he got

270
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:18.840
<v Speaker 2>Teresa thirty out six right, and so she comes out

271
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:19.759
<v Speaker 2>with a rifle and.

272
00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:20.480
<v Speaker 3>Is following him.

273
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:22.879
<v Speaker 2>She's about twenty feet behind him as he's walking towards

274
00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:24.879
<v Speaker 2>the burn pile. The burn pile's a good seventy feet

275
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:27.799
<v Speaker 2>back past their house, and as he's walking towards it,

276
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:29.759
<v Speaker 2>you got to understand there's smoldering and stuff going on,

277
00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:32.519
<v Speaker 2>so it's obscurre in his view. But as he's getting closer,

278
00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:35.480
<v Speaker 2>he notices this brown what he thought was a mount

279
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.039
<v Speaker 2>of dirt, fresh dirt because of the coloration, started moving

280
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:42.559
<v Speaker 2>real slow and then dropped lower and then started moving fast.

281
00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:44.000
<v Speaker 3>So immediately gun up.

282
00:12:44.039 --> 00:12:46.240
<v Speaker 2>He's looked the hell and they watch it, and it's

283
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:49.039
<v Speaker 2>like doing that spider cral thing. Now, from where that

284
00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:51.399
<v Speaker 2>burn pit was approximately about one hundred and twenty feet

285
00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:54.279
<v Speaker 2>to where it's opened, they cleared a whole bunch of

286
00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:57.279
<v Speaker 2>stuff back and that was back towards where their gardens.

287
00:12:57.320 --> 00:13:00.000
<v Speaker 2>They're building a larger garden and a greenhouse in the feet.

288
00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:03.279
<v Speaker 2>But this scene cleared that one hundred and twenty his

289
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:06.679
<v Speaker 2>feet in no time. And they just they watched it happen.

290
00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:09.039
<v Speaker 2>They're like, what the hell that was? Like it freaked

291
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:12.279
<v Speaker 2>him out. So they retreat back in the house. Teresa

292
00:13:12.399 --> 00:13:14.720
<v Speaker 2>grabbed the dog first, brought the dog with into the house.

293
00:13:14.799 --> 00:13:16.879
<v Speaker 2>Right they could lose chicken, and she didn't want to

294
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:19.000
<v Speaker 2>lose the dog. So as they're in the house and

295
00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:21.399
<v Speaker 2>they're talking to each other, about twenty five minutes had passed,

296
00:13:21.399 --> 00:13:24.080
<v Speaker 2>and it reached out to the local neighbors that they've

297
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.879
<v Speaker 2>become really close with and stuff, explain what had happened.

298
00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:29.240
<v Speaker 2>The guy, the neighbor guy was going to be on

299
00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:31.519
<v Speaker 2>his way shortly, had just gotten moving and what have you.

300
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:35.759
<v Speaker 2>So they got back up coming and other potential witnesses

301
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:38.200
<v Speaker 2>to see what's happened to try to help them.

302
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:40.320
<v Speaker 3>As they're sitting there and he just.

303
00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:43.080
<v Speaker 2>Got off the phone, Teresa brought over some more coffee,

304
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:46.039
<v Speaker 2>and so he was just pouring his coffee and right

305
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:49.159
<v Speaker 2>beside him where his kitchen the table was. So if

306
00:13:49.159 --> 00:13:51.320
<v Speaker 2>you go the doors in the middle of the house.

307
00:13:51.720 --> 00:13:53.799
<v Speaker 2>There's a window off to the side when you step in.

308
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:56.679
<v Speaker 2>From what he was saying, it's thirty five feet going back.

309
00:13:57.159 --> 00:13:59.799
<v Speaker 2>There's one room that was built into the back left

310
00:13:59.799 --> 00:14:02.840
<v Speaker 2>side as you're standing facing in, there's three windows that

311
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:05.759
<v Speaker 2>run along that side, and between the first window and

312
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:08.240
<v Speaker 2>the second window is a kitchen table because right inside

313
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:10.720
<v Speaker 2>the doorway, right off to the left is the kitchen

314
00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:11.440
<v Speaker 2>counter area.

315
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:13.159
<v Speaker 3>And then immediately off to the.

316
00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:17.039
<v Speaker 2>Right, because he was twenty feet wide, was refrigerator, stove

317
00:14:17.080 --> 00:14:20.120
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that. So they maximizing space and storage

318
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:23.519
<v Speaker 2>and whatnot. And again, rustic build. It wasn't the Todd mall.

319
00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:26.120
<v Speaker 2>That's not how it goes down. So where he was

320
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.919
<v Speaker 2>sitting at the table between the two windows, dam something

321
00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:32.080
<v Speaker 2>smacked the outside of the wall really hard, so hard

322
00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:34.440
<v Speaker 2>as he was porn of coffee, he dropped both broke

323
00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:37.360
<v Speaker 2>the coffee pot, spilled coffee all over himself. But he

324
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.799
<v Speaker 2>was in such like shock of what was going on

325
00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:43.840
<v Speaker 2>that didn't face him at first at first. And so

326
00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:47.240
<v Speaker 2>immediately Teresa's looking out the window because she was closest

327
00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:48.960
<v Speaker 2>to that first window as you come in the door,

328
00:14:49.919 --> 00:14:52.159
<v Speaker 2>and she's like, it's out there, it's out there, and

329
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:54.399
<v Speaker 2>so he jumps up and runs over the second window,

330
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:57.039
<v Speaker 2>meanwhile grabbing his rifle that was leaning against that wall

331
00:14:57.320 --> 00:14:59.159
<v Speaker 2>right behind him. Slid over and fell, but he picked

332
00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:01.600
<v Speaker 2>it up, ran the other one, slit it open. And

333
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:05.799
<v Speaker 2>this thing was about fifteen feet away, walking away, and

334
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:08.159
<v Speaker 2>stay tuned for more sasquatch out to see, will be

335
00:15:08.279 --> 00:15:14.399
<v Speaker 2>right back after the east messages. And he said the

336
00:15:14.399 --> 00:15:16.840
<v Speaker 2>way it was walking was with such confidence and was

337
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:20.279
<v Speaker 2>so wide and so thick. He said, it was real muscular.

338
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:23.480
<v Speaker 2>The hair was it was even, but it wasn't like

339
00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:25.559
<v Speaker 2>real thick. He could see to the skin and it

340
00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:28.279
<v Speaker 2>was like a not all the way black, but that

341
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:30.240
<v Speaker 2>ashen gray. And I asked him if it was like

342
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:32.519
<v Speaker 2>a couple of shades darker than wet cement, and he

343
00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:35.080
<v Speaker 2>said not quite. So it was about the color of

344
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:38.679
<v Speaker 2>wet seamen in like an off gray. And as he's

345
00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:41.759
<v Speaker 2>watching it, he could see and it's that dirt brown hair,

346
00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:45.679
<v Speaker 2>like the reddish brown, and it's walking away with such confidence,

347
00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:49.000
<v Speaker 2>and so as he's aiming the rifle, he's like stuck

348
00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:50.320
<v Speaker 2>because he's seeing.

349
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:53.120
<v Speaker 3>It full getting a really good look at it.

350
00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:56.039
<v Speaker 2>He said, as it was walking, it stopped and turned

351
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:57.519
<v Speaker 2>all the way around and faced him when I got

352
00:15:57.519 --> 00:16:01.639
<v Speaker 2>about twenty five three feet away. As he's looking, Teresa's

353
00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:04.360
<v Speaker 2>not immediately on his mid because she's obviously inside in

354
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:07.080
<v Speaker 2>a safe place, but she had opened the other window

355
00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:10.000
<v Speaker 2>and she has a thirty odd six. He's not even

356
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:13.039
<v Speaker 2>thinking about that because he's trying to figure out he's

357
00:16:13.080 --> 00:16:13.759
<v Speaker 2>looking at this thing.

358
00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:16.399
<v Speaker 3>And he said it looked at him and just gave

359
00:16:16.519 --> 00:16:19.440
<v Speaker 3>him this glare. How dare you like? He was the

360
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:20.759
<v Speaker 3>most disgusting thing in the world.

361
00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:23.879
<v Speaker 2>And Nate was like, what the hell because it was

362
00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:25.679
<v Speaker 2>all happening so fast, and all of a sudden, damn,

363
00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:29.360
<v Speaker 2>Teresa's shoots this thing right and she shot it in

364
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:33.320
<v Speaker 2>the gut. Immediately it tumbled down, jumped up, took off

365
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:37.000
<v Speaker 2>poem and the gun shot startled Nate and he had

366
00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:38.639
<v Speaker 2>a negligent discharge boom.

367
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:39.320
<v Speaker 3>He just squeezed.

368
00:16:39.360 --> 00:16:40.759
<v Speaker 2>He wasn't even aiming at it, he just had the

369
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:43.600
<v Speaker 2>gun up out the window, but it ended up popping

370
00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:46.039
<v Speaker 2>a shot too, didn't hit nowhere closer to the creature,

371
00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:48.799
<v Speaker 2>but it takes off right after it took.

372
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:51.960
<v Speaker 3>The gun shot, and just file for the next five nights.

373
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:55.240
<v Speaker 2>The neighbor shows up a little while later, but within

374
00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:58.639
<v Speaker 2>a couple hours, they hear this howling, this howling way

375
00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:01.559
<v Speaker 2>off in the distance. He guesstimates some mile ish away,

376
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:03.919
<v Speaker 2>a mile and a half because his sound moves weird

377
00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:06.240
<v Speaker 2>in the wilderness. But the neighbor's hearing it too, and

378
00:17:06.279 --> 00:17:08.559
<v Speaker 2>they're explaining everything that happened to the neighbor, and neighbors

379
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:10.279
<v Speaker 2>a holy shit, we've seen a couple of them, but

380
00:17:10.599 --> 00:17:13.000
<v Speaker 2>they never did anything like what's happening with you, guys.

381
00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:15.319
<v Speaker 2>And so they talked for a while. But five days,

382
00:17:16.039 --> 00:17:19.039
<v Speaker 2>every so often this scream and hollering would be going

383
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:22.000
<v Speaker 2>off off in the distance. And after the second third

384
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:25.400
<v Speaker 2>day of this five day period, they started getting calls

385
00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:28.480
<v Speaker 2>backers right, there's started being more and more sounds around.

386
00:17:29.160 --> 00:17:31.839
<v Speaker 2>After that five day period of that craziness going on,

387
00:17:31.920 --> 00:17:35.519
<v Speaker 2>and more and more answered calls back and forth, this

388
00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:39.160
<v Speaker 2>thing reappeared and they knew it was the same one

389
00:17:39.200 --> 00:17:42.759
<v Speaker 2>because it's gut you could see the dried blood. Its

390
00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:45.559
<v Speaker 2>attitude was real bad, which I mean they shot him,

391
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh of course, yeah, it's gonna have a shitty attitude

392
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:50.559
<v Speaker 2>about that. But what they did was is they went

393
00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:53.559
<v Speaker 2>out there and they both pointing guns at it. They

394
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:56.559
<v Speaker 2>were yelling their dog, the puppy because they came out,

395
00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:00.039
<v Speaker 2>Teresa didn't fully shut the door all the way and

396
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:01.960
<v Speaker 2>the dog is after so much going on, the dog

397
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:06.359
<v Speaker 2>got desensitized and whatnot and got very protective of Teresa.

398
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:10.200
<v Speaker 2>So dog comes flying out behind them, starts barking. Teresa

399
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:12.799
<v Speaker 2>immediately holds her gun up and just calling the dog back.

400
00:18:12.839 --> 00:18:14.640
<v Speaker 2>The dog comes back to her because she had been

401
00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:17.160
<v Speaker 2>training it. Dog comes back to her. But it's just

402
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:20.279
<v Speaker 2>it's once after this thing, and may's let's get back

403
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:22.599
<v Speaker 2>in the house because they're going to both go out

404
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:24.039
<v Speaker 2>and just open fire on this thing. We're not going

405
00:18:24.119 --> 00:18:26.079
<v Speaker 2>to live in terror and be trapping her own house.

406
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:28.880
<v Speaker 2>We're going to just drop it. But they didn't because

407
00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:31.920
<v Speaker 2>of the dog coming out interrupting things. They retreat back

408
00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:34.440
<v Speaker 2>into the house. That's when the thing stood there for

409
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:37.680
<v Speaker 2>about roughly a half an hour. Meanwhile, when they're inside,

410
00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Nate's on the phone with the neighbor again, and his

411
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:42.440
<v Speaker 2>neighbor was up and dressed and happened to have his

412
00:18:42.519 --> 00:18:43.440
<v Speaker 2>truck already running.

413
00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:45.200
<v Speaker 3>For whatever reason, he says, I'm on my way.

414
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:49.119
<v Speaker 2>So during the course of everything, just as a neighbor

415
00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:50.960
<v Speaker 2>They can hear him coming down the access road that

416
00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:53.559
<v Speaker 2>they cut in, which is a cat cut road and gravel.

417
00:18:53.599 --> 00:18:55.920
<v Speaker 2>They could hear the neighbor of falling ass. Well, this

418
00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:58.599
<v Speaker 2>thing just turns and walks off into the trees. The

419
00:18:58.640 --> 00:19:01.599
<v Speaker 2>neighbor comes pulling up next to the house, talking from

420
00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:03.839
<v Speaker 2>his truck window to their window, and he was like,

421
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:04.799
<v Speaker 2>is walked over that way?

422
00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:05.720
<v Speaker 3>He walked over that way.

423
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:11.480
<v Speaker 2>The neighbor had an fal right pulls up over where

424
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:14.039
<v Speaker 2>the flower beds and stuff were for the garden. A

425
00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:16.640
<v Speaker 2>little raised beds pulled up beside there and had his

426
00:19:16.680 --> 00:19:19.000
<v Speaker 2>window down just open.

427
00:19:19.039 --> 00:19:21.799
<v Speaker 3>Fire. Boom boom dumped his twenty round box mag in

428
00:19:21.839 --> 00:19:22.200
<v Speaker 3>that thing.

429
00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:24.880
<v Speaker 2>All they heard was screaming and hollering, just thrashing the

430
00:19:24.920 --> 00:19:26.400
<v Speaker 2>movement going away.

431
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:28.279
<v Speaker 3>He didn't shoot at it.

432
00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:31.319
<v Speaker 2>He shot a tree off near where this thing was,

433
00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:33.920
<v Speaker 2>just nonchalantly walking like it on the place. So a

434
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:36.920
<v Speaker 2>neighbor backs up, pulls back up to the house, runs inside,

435
00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:39.839
<v Speaker 2>rings his gun and extra ammal with them. They discuss

436
00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:42.000
<v Speaker 2>everything that happened. They were like, did you shoot it?

437
00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:43.119
<v Speaker 2>Do we need to go and put it out of

438
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:44.680
<v Speaker 2>his misery? And he was like, no, I shot the

439
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:47.480
<v Speaker 2>tree that was near it just to get it moving,

440
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:50.359
<v Speaker 2>and they're like, we went out just a little bit

441
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:51.319
<v Speaker 2>ago to kill this thing.

442
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:53.680
<v Speaker 3>But anyway, so they just let it go.

443
00:19:54.359 --> 00:19:56.559
<v Speaker 2>After that, the neighbors stuck around for most of the day,

444
00:19:56.640 --> 00:19:58.920
<v Speaker 2>hanging out, just gonna be there for him. They're gonna

445
00:19:58.920 --> 00:20:01.559
<v Speaker 2>handle business, and it comes back. Nothing ever happened after that.

446
00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:05.000
<v Speaker 2>It went quiet, nothing was disturbed, nothing got funky, that

447
00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:08.000
<v Speaker 2>the energy wasn't off. And for a number of years

448
00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:13.039
<v Speaker 2>after that, nothing not a peep, until shortly before they

449
00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:15.720
<v Speaker 2>sold the property to some family members who were well

450
00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:19.480
<v Speaker 2>aware of everything, the history of everything. Only the last

451
00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:22.000
<v Speaker 2>couple of years that they lived there that in the

452
00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:24.359
<v Speaker 2>spring in the fall they would hear Howl's way off

453
00:20:24.400 --> 00:20:27.839
<v Speaker 2>in the distance and they recognized that tone as that creature.

454
00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:29.279
<v Speaker 1>Man.

455
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:31.960
<v Speaker 2>I came out and to sitting there drinking coffee. I'm

456
00:20:31.960 --> 00:20:33.759
<v Speaker 2>not trying to laugh, Nate, I'm not trying to make fine.

457
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:38.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm just envisioning poorn coffee and then bam and spilling

458
00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:40.680
<v Speaker 2>all that hot coffee on yourself. He ended up with

459
00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:43.920
<v Speaker 2>like second degree burns on his thighs. That's not funny.

460
00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:46.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm just the whole vision of that, in my mind

461
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:49.160
<v Speaker 2>is like I had to chuckle because Nate chuckled when

462
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:50.559
<v Speaker 2>he was telling me when he was looking out the

463
00:20:50.559 --> 00:20:52.200
<v Speaker 2>window at this thing, and all of a sudden, Teresa

464
00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:53.880
<v Speaker 2>cracks a shot with a thirty odd to six.

465
00:20:54.839 --> 00:20:56.359
<v Speaker 3>He says, scared the shit out of him, which I

466
00:20:56.359 --> 00:20:57.359
<v Speaker 3>could rully understand.

467
00:20:57.440 --> 00:21:01.519
<v Speaker 2>He's lost in a trance and then bam, I could imagine.

468
00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:04.440
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, I'm going to thank Nate and Teresa for sharing that.

469
00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:08.000
<v Speaker 2>God bless them for stepping forward, especially being of that

470
00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:10.240
<v Speaker 2>age where back in the time where they weren't so

471
00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:13.559
<v Speaker 2>keen on sharing. But I appreciate them sharing that. What

472
00:21:13.640 --> 00:21:16.519
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to share with you today comes from Jacob.

473
00:21:17.119 --> 00:21:21.480
<v Speaker 2>Jacob is from a small village on the coast of Alaska.

474
00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:24.920
<v Speaker 2>He's still there and there's still some ongoing things, and

475
00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:28.559
<v Speaker 2>he didn't want specifics on his exact location, which is irrelevant.

476
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:29.400
<v Speaker 3>That's final me.

477
00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:32.640
<v Speaker 2>It's all about the behaviors prior to something going crazy.

478
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Jacob has rad dogs most of his life, grew up

479
00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:37.720
<v Speaker 2>around him and everything like that, and over the years

480
00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:40.240
<v Speaker 2>it's dwindled down to where they're not so prevalent. He

481
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:43.079
<v Speaker 2>only has a couple dogs around the house and they've

482
00:21:43.119 --> 00:21:45.319
<v Speaker 2>transferred over to mainly using snow machines to do the

483
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:48.319
<v Speaker 2>running around. Where they have to go to get firewood

484
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.160
<v Speaker 2>is thirty five forty miles at minimum to go and

485
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:55.000
<v Speaker 2>collect firewood, and a lot of times they'll all pitch

486
00:21:55.039 --> 00:21:56.640
<v Speaker 2>in and get a barge a little wood.

487
00:21:56.400 --> 00:21:57.759
<v Speaker 3>Brought in and use it like that.

488
00:21:57.880 --> 00:22:01.279
<v Speaker 2>But anyway, so Jacob and his cousin right up their

489
00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:05.119
<v Speaker 2>snow machines because it was approximately three years ago, and

490
00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:09.200
<v Speaker 2>they headed out to just get firewood, pretty basic stuff.

491
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:11.200
<v Speaker 3>And as they get out to the area.

492
00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:13.200
<v Speaker 2>Where they're going to be clicking this firewood, they're looking

493
00:22:13.240 --> 00:22:16.119
<v Speaker 2>around for beetlekill and some sap trees.

494
00:22:16.160 --> 00:22:17.240
<v Speaker 3>Comes to that nature.

495
00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:19.480
<v Speaker 2>As soon as they get into the area, they start

496
00:22:19.559 --> 00:22:23.160
<v Speaker 2>snow machining around, making tracks, packing the trail down because

497
00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:25.680
<v Speaker 2>they've come across a little group of trees that they figure, okay,

498
00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:28.920
<v Speaker 2>we'll whack and stack these ones and be on our way.

499
00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:31.359
<v Speaker 2>So him and his cousin are doing this, going around

500
00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:34.039
<v Speaker 2>in a circle. As they're doing so, all of a sudden,

501
00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:36.680
<v Speaker 2>he's paying attention to what he's doing. He's steering the

502
00:22:36.680 --> 00:22:39.000
<v Speaker 2>snow machine and trying to stay on trail and pack

503
00:22:39.079 --> 00:22:41.880
<v Speaker 2>it down and As he's coming around, he almost hits

504
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:43.920
<v Speaker 2>the back end of his cousin sled because his cousin

505
00:22:43.960 --> 00:22:46.960
<v Speaker 2>had stopped. He looks up and he's yelling to get

506
00:22:46.960 --> 00:22:49.480
<v Speaker 2>his cousin's attention, but his cousin had already pulled his

507
00:22:49.559 --> 00:22:53.039
<v Speaker 2>rifle out of his scabbard and it's aiming it off

508
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:55.000
<v Speaker 2>in the distance. He can't see what his cousin is

509
00:22:55.000 --> 00:22:57.279
<v Speaker 2>seeing the way the trees and everything were set up,

510
00:22:57.319 --> 00:22:59.960
<v Speaker 2>so he kills a snow machine. He grabs his rifle

511
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:02.359
<v Speaker 2>out of the scabbard and comes and joins his cousin,

512
00:23:02.400 --> 00:23:05.160
<v Speaker 2>and his cousin's telling them, hey, over there, it's right

513
00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:07.680
<v Speaker 2>over there. And Jacob was like, what's right over there?

514
00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:10.599
<v Speaker 2>Are you thinking of wolves? Maybe something like that. He

515
00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:13.640
<v Speaker 2>steps up onto the sideboard on the snow machine, and

516
00:23:13.680 --> 00:23:16.680
<v Speaker 2>his cousin's pointing his rifle in the direction. That's when

517
00:23:16.759 --> 00:23:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Jacob sees it in between these two trees, the big, dark,

518
00:23:20.079 --> 00:23:23.000
<v Speaker 2>hulking figure. He gets me it's about ten foot tall,

519
00:23:23.039 --> 00:23:25.119
<v Speaker 2>because the spruce trees that they were dealing with were

520
00:23:25.200 --> 00:23:28.759
<v Speaker 2>about twenty five is feet tall, and so knowing that,

521
00:23:28.839 --> 00:23:29.880
<v Speaker 2>he was like, what the hell is that?

522
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:32.759
<v Speaker 3>And his cousin said harry Man.

523
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:34.720
<v Speaker 2>He wasn't arguing at that point because obviously it was

524
00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:38.279
<v Speaker 2>a harry Man, and so as the Havid in this

525
00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:41.319
<v Speaker 2>little standoff. Jacob said that all of a sudden they

526
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:44.759
<v Speaker 2>heard a very sharp, crisp, loud whoop from behind them,

527
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:45.440
<v Speaker 2>and he.

528
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:48.759
<v Speaker 3>Said it was so powerful it startled him.

529
00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:52.880
<v Speaker 2>They both whipped around and there was nothing there, and

530
00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:55.480
<v Speaker 2>then they turned back around and the other one was gone.

531
00:23:55.839 --> 00:23:58.079
<v Speaker 2>So they're sitting there. His cousin's snow machine is still

532
00:23:58.119 --> 00:24:00.759
<v Speaker 2>running and stuff. His cousin's yelling, let's get out of here,

533
00:24:01.000 --> 00:24:04.039
<v Speaker 2>let's go. Jacob wasn't disagreeing at all, so he goes

534
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:07.640
<v Speaker 2>back over to this machine, fires it up. His cousin's

535
00:24:07.720 --> 00:24:09.599
<v Speaker 2>leading the way back out the way they came, he said.

536
00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Once they cleared the tree line, his cousins circled around

537
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:14.559
<v Speaker 2>big and came back and was facing back towards the trees,

538
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:18.319
<v Speaker 2>and so he followed too, pulled up beside him, and

539
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:22.440
<v Speaker 2>they're both looking now. They were riding with their rifles

540
00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:25.160
<v Speaker 2>across their laps. So his cousins standing up with his

541
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:28.319
<v Speaker 2>rifle and he's aiming through the scope, looking through trying

542
00:24:28.359 --> 00:24:30.720
<v Speaker 2>to spot what they were just looking at a minute ago.

543
00:24:31.400 --> 00:24:33.400
<v Speaker 2>Think of it as that they were looking in the

544
00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:35.920
<v Speaker 2>wrong area. Initially, they were looking at their tracks as

545
00:24:35.920 --> 00:24:38.759
<v Speaker 2>they came out. Now, when they went into the woods,

546
00:24:38.920 --> 00:24:41.279
<v Speaker 2>they went in a little ways and then they hooked

547
00:24:41.319 --> 00:24:45.200
<v Speaker 2>hard off to the right, and everything happened further off

548
00:24:45.200 --> 00:24:48.039
<v Speaker 2>to the right. But they're looking back, just straight ahead

549
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:49.480
<v Speaker 2>on the tracks they came out and went in and

550
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:53.240
<v Speaker 2>came out on. Jacob said that when he started scanning

551
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:56.000
<v Speaker 2>over to the right, that's when he saw one of them.

552
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:56.559
<v Speaker 3>He said.

553
00:24:56.559 --> 00:24:58.920
<v Speaker 2>The one he saw was shaking a tree, and that's

554
00:24:58.920 --> 00:25:00.640
<v Speaker 2>one of the things that caught his t He said.

555
00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:02.960
<v Speaker 2>The tree was just like going back and forth, and

556
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:05.079
<v Speaker 2>it started cracking. The more and more of the harder

557
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:07.720
<v Speaker 2>swing it went, the louder it was cracking. That caught

558
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:10.400
<v Speaker 2>his cousin's attention, and he moves his cope over that direction.

559
00:25:10.440 --> 00:25:13.319
<v Speaker 2>All of a sudden, it stops right Because Jacob wasn't

560
00:25:13.319 --> 00:25:14.839
<v Speaker 2>looking at it through his rifle or anything.

561
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:15.559
<v Speaker 3>He was just.

562
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:18.079
<v Speaker 2>Looking with his naked eyes. He wasn't holding his rifle

563
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:19.839
<v Speaker 2>up like his cousin was. But when his cousin swung

564
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:23.960
<v Speaker 2>his rifle direction, it stopped, and this thing moved in

565
00:25:24.000 --> 00:25:26.759
<v Speaker 2>between the trees, moving back and forth. His cousin was like,

566
00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:28.799
<v Speaker 2>I've seen it. I've seen it. It looks like a man.

567
00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:32.160
<v Speaker 2>And Jacob was like, wholla, we should just get out

568
00:25:32.160 --> 00:25:35.440
<v Speaker 2>of here because the last thing we need is to

569
00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:37.599
<v Speaker 2>be dealing with a harry man. And he's in shock

570
00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:41.559
<v Speaker 2>because he's heard stories and had relatives share certain encounters

571
00:25:41.559 --> 00:25:44.319
<v Speaker 2>and stuff over the years, but he didn't dismiss it

572
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:47.519
<v Speaker 2>or discounted or not believe him. It was one of

573
00:25:47.559 --> 00:25:49.880
<v Speaker 2>those when I see it with my own eyes, not

574
00:25:49.960 --> 00:25:51.599
<v Speaker 2>that I don't believe you, but when I see it

575
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:53.440
<v Speaker 2>with my own eyes. So now he's in shock over

576
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:54.039
<v Speaker 2>what the hell.

577
00:25:54.599 --> 00:25:57.160
<v Speaker 3>His cousin was like, we gotta go, we gotta get

578
00:25:57.200 --> 00:25:57.640
<v Speaker 3>out of here.

579
00:25:58.079 --> 00:26:00.680
<v Speaker 2>They need firewood, right, So it was I know, let's

580
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:04.480
<v Speaker 2>just go around this and go further about another five

581
00:26:04.599 --> 00:26:07.519
<v Speaker 2>ten miles. There's another spot. We can click wood, avoid

582
00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:11.240
<v Speaker 2>these things over here and still accomplish a mission. And

583
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:14.319
<v Speaker 2>his cousin was like, hell no. But Jacob of course

584
00:26:14.319 --> 00:26:15.680
<v Speaker 2>to him to say, come on, we got we need

585
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:18.559
<v Speaker 2>the firewood. We got to keep our families warm, and

586
00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:21.640
<v Speaker 2>his cousin couldn't really argue there, so out of necessity

587
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:25.680
<v Speaker 2>only and not out of necessarily desire. So they take

588
00:26:25.720 --> 00:26:29.440
<v Speaker 2>off heading to this other area. Now, from what Jacob said,

589
00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:32.240
<v Speaker 2>the whole time they were on their way to this

590
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:34.279
<v Speaker 2>next area where they were going to be colleckeding the

591
00:26:34.279 --> 00:26:38.160
<v Speaker 2>firewood and stuff, there was weird noises and snow machines

592
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:39.400
<v Speaker 2>are loud. I don't know if you guys have ever

593
00:26:39.440 --> 00:26:41.640
<v Speaker 2>been on two stroke snumb machines, and even four strokes,

594
00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:45.240
<v Speaker 2>they're loud, they're moving, they're engines. So as his cruising along,

595
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:47.720
<v Speaker 2>he would hear noises every once in a while. But

596
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:51.200
<v Speaker 2>at this point they're in wide open tundra, snow just everywhere,

597
00:26:51.240 --> 00:26:53.960
<v Speaker 2>snow the trees that they were dealing with before or

598
00:26:53.960 --> 00:26:57.000
<v Speaker 2>far behind them. But he kept hearing these noises and

599
00:26:57.039 --> 00:26:58.680
<v Speaker 2>he couldn't make it out as he was driving along

600
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:01.519
<v Speaker 2>at helmet on and everything. When they get up to

601
00:27:01.559 --> 00:27:04.160
<v Speaker 2>this other area, his cousin stops shy up going into

602
00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:07.480
<v Speaker 2>the trees for obvious reasons. He didn't want any kind

603
00:27:07.519 --> 00:27:11.119
<v Speaker 2>of accidentally run into one of these things or.

604
00:27:10.440 --> 00:27:11.240
<v Speaker 3>Anything like that.

605
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:14.640
<v Speaker 2>Right as they get up to this tree line, his

606
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:17.440
<v Speaker 2>cousin stops and he pulls out his rifle, and he's

607
00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:18.960
<v Speaker 2>standing there and he goes, I don't know, maybe I

608
00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:21.759
<v Speaker 2>should just stand watch when you cut the trees, load up,

609
00:27:22.279 --> 00:27:24.319
<v Speaker 2>and then we'll switch and we'll do it like that.

610
00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:26.400
<v Speaker 3>And so he agreed made sense.

611
00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:29.839
<v Speaker 2>Jaco's like, yeah, let's do it like that, and so

612
00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:34.480
<v Speaker 2>they decide that's the best course of action. So when

613
00:27:34.559 --> 00:27:37.279
<v Speaker 2>Jacob pulls up, he doesn't go far into the trees

614
00:27:37.279 --> 00:27:39.599
<v Speaker 2>at all. He just pulled around right there along the

615
00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:42.119
<v Speaker 2>front edge, and they dropped a couple that were beetle

616
00:27:42.200 --> 00:27:44.519
<v Speaker 2>killed right there at the edge, and then there was

617
00:27:44.599 --> 00:27:47.039
<v Speaker 2>a few others spotted and darted back in between there.

618
00:27:47.400 --> 00:27:49.359
<v Speaker 2>And so he went through and his cousin was right

619
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:52.440
<v Speaker 2>there behind him, constantly looking as he's dropping these trees.

620
00:27:52.880 --> 00:27:55.279
<v Speaker 2>He goes through and he limbs them and he starts

621
00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:58.319
<v Speaker 2>bucking them up into about six foot sections. Now he

622
00:27:58.400 --> 00:28:00.480
<v Speaker 2>goes through and he bucks them all up for because

623
00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:02.440
<v Speaker 2>he's not going to just continue running the saw back

624
00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:04.480
<v Speaker 2>and forth, turn on off and on all that. So

625
00:28:04.519 --> 00:28:07.599
<v Speaker 2>he just runs through, bucks it all up, and all

626
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:10.200
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden, he's getting the first load. He's got

627
00:28:10.240 --> 00:28:12.440
<v Speaker 2>one six foot log on his shoulder. He's just packing

628
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:14.839
<v Speaker 2>it back out, putting it on the sled, moving the

629
00:28:14.839 --> 00:28:16.759
<v Speaker 2>straps out of the way and stuff like that. His

630
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:19.559
<v Speaker 2>focus was getting the woods so they can get out

631
00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:22.000
<v Speaker 2>of there. All of a sudden, he hears his cousin's

632
00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:22.759
<v Speaker 2>rifle go off.

633
00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:23.400
<v Speaker 3>Boom.

634
00:28:23.640 --> 00:28:26.119
<v Speaker 2>Just startled the shit out of him. He said he'd

635
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:29.000
<v Speaker 2>never been startled like that in his life. He wasn't

636
00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:31.319
<v Speaker 2>expecting it. There was no warning, no nothing, just bam.

637
00:28:31.720 --> 00:28:32.240
<v Speaker 3>Gunshot.

638
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Two whips around, and his cousins had worked the action

639
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:38.680
<v Speaker 2>on the rifle, on the bolt action, and is like

640
00:28:38.799 --> 00:28:40.960
<v Speaker 2>panning to his right, shoots again.

641
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:44.200
<v Speaker 3>Damn. And he starts screaming, hey, well, what's going on?

642
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:46.640
<v Speaker 3>What are you doing? And his cousins like it was

643
00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:48.880
<v Speaker 3>over there, It was over there, It was looking up.

644
00:28:48.839 --> 00:28:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Something like he was gonna throw it at me, and

645
00:28:50.279 --> 00:28:52.880
<v Speaker 2>that's when I shot. So Jacob had nothing to say

646
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:53.200
<v Speaker 2>on that.

647
00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:55.799
<v Speaker 3>What do you do? You know, we're going to defend yourself.

648
00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:58.119
<v Speaker 2>After a second shot and they have that little discussion,

649
00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:00.720
<v Speaker 2>they hear thrashing and crashing, and he said, did you

650
00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:01.039
<v Speaker 2>hit it?

651
00:29:01.119 --> 00:29:02.799
<v Speaker 3>And he goes, my first shot, I think I hit

652
00:29:02.839 --> 00:29:03.440
<v Speaker 3>it real good.

653
00:29:04.200 --> 00:29:07.799
<v Speaker 2>All of a sudden, way off in the distance, because

654
00:29:08.160 --> 00:29:10.279
<v Speaker 2>these noises that were being made as this thing took

655
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:12.559
<v Speaker 2>off to the trees after the second shot and everything

656
00:29:13.000 --> 00:29:16.119
<v Speaker 2>he said. It was demonic sounding, it was loud, it

657
00:29:16.200 --> 00:29:19.680
<v Speaker 2>was powerful, and it was just on this weird kind

658
00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:21.599
<v Speaker 2>of level where they felt it through their whole body.

659
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:24.920
<v Speaker 2>Even though it didn't seem like overly loud like a scream,

660
00:29:25.039 --> 00:29:28.160
<v Speaker 2>it was very powerful and way off in the distance

661
00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:31.960
<v Speaker 2>they heard a scream, like a real loud like air

662
00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:35.400
<v Speaker 2>raid siren type scream, and boom. They're like, lisz, get

663
00:29:35.440 --> 00:29:37.960
<v Speaker 2>the hell out of here. So with just the two

664
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:40.079
<v Speaker 2>logs that he had loaded up, he's trying to strap

665
00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:42.559
<v Speaker 2>them down so they don't fall out, and he's getting

666
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:44.240
<v Speaker 2>a saw loaded up and everything like that, and his

667
00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:47.759
<v Speaker 2>cousin's fired up his snowb machine. Jacob jumps into his

668
00:29:47.880 --> 00:29:51.039
<v Speaker 2>and fires it up. Now they've been running for a while.

669
00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:55.279
<v Speaker 2>One of the issues was his cousin's snow machine typically

670
00:29:55.920 --> 00:29:58.680
<v Speaker 2>would overheat, and there was an older Skindy we call

671
00:29:58.759 --> 00:30:02.759
<v Speaker 2>him Skid. Don'ts stay tuned for more sasquatch out to

672
00:30:02.759 --> 00:30:09.279
<v Speaker 2>see we'll be right back after the east messages, so

673
00:30:09.640 --> 00:30:12.279
<v Speaker 2>he had to stop as soon as they were turned around.

674
00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:15.359
<v Speaker 2>They hadn't gone anywhere yet really, so as soon as

675
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:17.440
<v Speaker 2>he's turned around. All of a sudden, his cousin, snumb

676
00:30:17.440 --> 00:30:21.160
<v Speaker 2>Mashine is overheating, so he's killed it, popped the calling

677
00:30:21.200 --> 00:30:23.680
<v Speaker 2>he stone snow upon it, and Jacob was like, don't

678
00:30:23.680 --> 00:30:25.519
<v Speaker 2>cool it down too quick, you'll crack the block. They're

679
00:30:25.519 --> 00:30:28.759
<v Speaker 2>having this discussion, but in the background, in the trees,

680
00:30:29.279 --> 00:30:30.960
<v Speaker 2>there's this wicked noise.

681
00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:32.680
<v Speaker 3>Going on, and Jacob said it.

682
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:35.880
<v Speaker 2>I almost sounded like death rows, but he wasn't sure

683
00:30:35.960 --> 00:30:38.640
<v Speaker 2>because he didn't see his cousin shoot it. He didn't

684
00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:41.799
<v Speaker 2>see where it was hit or anything of that nature.

685
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:44.079
<v Speaker 2>According to what his cousin was telling him when he

686
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:46.839
<v Speaker 2>was trying to cool off the snum machine. Because Jacob

687
00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:48.759
<v Speaker 2>started questioning m like, hey, what the hell was it doing?

688
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:51.240
<v Speaker 2>He said it lifted up a log and was acting

689
00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:53.279
<v Speaker 2>like he was going to throw it at me. And

690
00:30:53.319 --> 00:30:54.599
<v Speaker 2>he goes, what kind of log? And he goes a

691
00:30:54.599 --> 00:30:58.119
<v Speaker 2>look like aspen or something in the birch. Random questions.

692
00:30:58.160 --> 00:31:00.000
<v Speaker 2>He wasn't like interrogating him. He was just trying to

693
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:02.599
<v Speaker 2>get information As they're having that discussion.

694
00:31:02.839 --> 00:31:04.319
<v Speaker 3>He asked him, are you sure you got a good

695
00:31:04.359 --> 00:31:05.960
<v Speaker 3>hit on it? He goes, yeah, I shot it good

696
00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:06.920
<v Speaker 3>in the chest.

697
00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:09.839
<v Speaker 2>He said that when the bullet hit because he when

698
00:31:09.839 --> 00:31:12.279
<v Speaker 2>he fired through the scope, he was only he only

699
00:31:12.319 --> 00:31:13.119
<v Speaker 2>had a two seventy.

700
00:31:13.880 --> 00:31:15.400
<v Speaker 3>But he said when he put.

701
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:18.240
<v Speaker 2>The scope back because of recoil, as soon as he

702
00:31:19.319 --> 00:31:22.160
<v Speaker 2>got it back in position, he saw it leaning forward

703
00:31:22.200 --> 00:31:23.839
<v Speaker 2>a little bit and he could see a patch of

704
00:31:23.960 --> 00:31:27.160
<v Speaker 2>the hair missing from where it hit upper chest. And

705
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:28.960
<v Speaker 2>he said that's when it turned and and that's when

706
00:31:29.160 --> 00:31:32.000
<v Speaker 2>he's seen it holding that log again and it took

707
00:31:32.039 --> 00:31:33.200
<v Speaker 2>off running, and that's when.

708
00:31:33.519 --> 00:31:34.839
<v Speaker 3>He took that follow up shot.

709
00:31:35.400 --> 00:31:38.079
<v Speaker 2>So with that information, he saying there wondering, man, I

710
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:40.160
<v Speaker 2>wonder if this thing's over here dying. We're heard the

711
00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:42.680
<v Speaker 2>screen from back wherever. We got to get a call

712
00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:45.119
<v Speaker 2>for help. We can't just be sitting here. We gotta

713
00:31:45.160 --> 00:31:48.720
<v Speaker 2>get going now. Understand, in the wintertime in Alaska, he

714
00:31:48.839 --> 00:31:51.559
<v Speaker 2>only have sat amount of hours where there's daylight, and

715
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:55.000
<v Speaker 2>then you're traveling in the dark. We will get real sketchy,

716
00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:58.400
<v Speaker 2>real fast. Like I say, it gets real fast right now.

717
00:31:58.599 --> 00:32:01.759
<v Speaker 2>And so they finally close off his machine. They're going

718
00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:03.880
<v Speaker 2>back and forth about he's going to follow his cousin

719
00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:06.359
<v Speaker 2>so his cousin's machine doesn't overheat on him, and he

720
00:32:06.359 --> 00:32:08.920
<v Speaker 2>doesn't know it because he's hauling ass. He said, he's

721
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:11.240
<v Speaker 2>going to follow his cousin and they're just gonna go.

722
00:32:11.400 --> 00:32:14.279
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna go back to the village. So they get

723
00:32:14.319 --> 00:32:17.319
<v Speaker 2>on their way. Now, on their way back, they have

724
00:32:17.400 --> 00:32:21.160
<v Speaker 2>to go right back past where they initially had the

725
00:32:21.160 --> 00:32:24.119
<v Speaker 2>first encounter and decided to go elsewhere. As they were

726
00:32:24.160 --> 00:32:28.400
<v Speaker 2>going getting close to that area, his cousin's snow machine overheated.

727
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:31.759
<v Speaker 2>At this point, Jacob said his cousin needed to jump on,

728
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:35.039
<v Speaker 2>get in the sled or jump on the back of this.

729
00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:38.680
<v Speaker 2>We're not staying. We'll come back for that. We'll come

730
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:41.599
<v Speaker 2>back for the machine. His cousin agreed. It's getting dark,

731
00:32:42.200 --> 00:32:44.400
<v Speaker 2>the sun is set and it's getting the dusk, and.

732
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:45.759
<v Speaker 3>They're in a very bad area.

733
00:32:46.440 --> 00:32:49.200
<v Speaker 2>So his cousin jumps on with him, has his rifle

734
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:52.759
<v Speaker 2>across his lap, and they take off right left a

735
00:32:52.799 --> 00:32:55.240
<v Speaker 2>snow machine there. Took the perdinance stuff, saw and all

736
00:32:55.279 --> 00:32:56.920
<v Speaker 2>that kind of stuff with him through it in the sled.

737
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.000
<v Speaker 2>But they take off. They get back to the village.

738
00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:03.000
<v Speaker 2>There's no problem, nothing else happen. They just haul an ass.

739
00:33:03.000 --> 00:33:05.839
<v Speaker 2>They got there the following morning. His cousin was going

740
00:33:05.839 --> 00:33:07.880
<v Speaker 2>holl he wants this snow machine. Doesn't want to leave

741
00:33:07.880 --> 00:33:09.319
<v Speaker 2>it out there in the village. You don't leave your

742
00:33:09.319 --> 00:33:11.640
<v Speaker 2>assets just everywhere. You got to go right back and

743
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:13.920
<v Speaker 2>get it. And so Jacob was like, hell, yeah, the

744
00:33:14.039 --> 00:33:16.319
<v Speaker 2>clear out the sligh this, grab everything and we'll bring

745
00:33:16.359 --> 00:33:18.759
<v Speaker 2>tools and make sure you got what you need. So

746
00:33:18.799 --> 00:33:21.240
<v Speaker 2>they take off out of there. It's just as it

747
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:25.079
<v Speaker 2>got light enough outside right now. They shake off. They

748
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:28.440
<v Speaker 2>got traveling to do. So once you get back towards

749
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:31.000
<v Speaker 2>the area, they're not seeing a snow machine where it

750
00:33:31.000 --> 00:33:33.720
<v Speaker 2>should be standing out by itself, just a little ways

751
00:33:33.759 --> 00:33:36.799
<v Speaker 2>off this tree line. It should be standing out in

752
00:33:36.839 --> 00:33:40.480
<v Speaker 2>the snow. They're not seeing it, and they're seeing bits

753
00:33:40.519 --> 00:33:44.039
<v Speaker 2>of something. So as they get closer, it's just getting

754
00:33:44.119 --> 00:33:47.480
<v Speaker 2>light enough outside where they can easily see. When they

755
00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:51.279
<v Speaker 2>get closer, the snow machine isn't there. There's bits and

756
00:33:51.319 --> 00:33:54.400
<v Speaker 2>pieces of it and it's been drug over into the trees.

757
00:33:55.400 --> 00:33:59.160
<v Speaker 2>He said, is twisted up beat the shit. It was

758
00:33:59.240 --> 00:34:03.039
<v Speaker 2>upside down and there wasn't much salvaging on it. Everything

759
00:34:03.119 --> 00:34:05.519
<v Speaker 2>was the tunnel of the track. Everything was just torn apart,

760
00:34:05.680 --> 00:34:08.719
<v Speaker 2>torn apart. They never found the sid that was attached

761
00:34:08.760 --> 00:34:11.440
<v Speaker 2>to it. They found a couple of little binding pieces

762
00:34:11.440 --> 00:34:13.480
<v Speaker 2>for it on the way over to the tree line.

763
00:34:13.599 --> 00:34:16.440
<v Speaker 2>So his cousin lost his snow machine. It was cooked,

764
00:34:16.920 --> 00:34:18.760
<v Speaker 2>no and they could do. What they did attempt to

765
00:34:18.800 --> 00:34:21.800
<v Speaker 2>do is savage it, get it out of there. They

766
00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:24.519
<v Speaker 2>didn't want to contaminating the woods or whatever. But as

767
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:27.599
<v Speaker 2>they were then they're trying to wrestle this destroyed snow

768
00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:30.400
<v Speaker 2>machine in pieces and put it on the sled and

769
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:32.840
<v Speaker 2>try to strap it down and try to drag it back.

770
00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:37.199
<v Speaker 2>They heard this tremendous growl, and he said, this growl

771
00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:39.760
<v Speaker 2>was so powerful that it almost made him lose control

772
00:34:39.800 --> 00:34:42.199
<v Speaker 2>of his bladder. He almost wet himself because it was

773
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:44.920
<v Speaker 2>so powerful and just immediately hit him in his spirit,

774
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:48.679
<v Speaker 2>he said, and it freaked him out. His cousin was

775
00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:52.280
<v Speaker 2>already armed, so they stopped wrestling the snow machine and

776
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:55.119
<v Speaker 2>they just left it. They decided they would tend to

777
00:34:55.119 --> 00:34:58.000
<v Speaker 2>it another time with more people, so they got the

778
00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:00.679
<v Speaker 2>hell out of Dodge. Eventually went back. It was a

779
00:35:00.719 --> 00:35:03.760
<v Speaker 2>couple of weeks later with three or four other the villagers.

780
00:35:03.840 --> 00:35:05.880
<v Speaker 2>Everything was fine. They got all the junk out of there.

781
00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:08.760
<v Speaker 2>I want to thank Jacob for reaching out sharing that

782
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:11.719
<v Speaker 2>I know it's been hit and miss, but I appreciate you,

783
00:35:11.800 --> 00:35:14.559
<v Speaker 2>Jacob getting over this viral pneumonia bullshit.

784
00:35:14.599 --> 00:35:17.599
<v Speaker 3>And it was miserable, but it'll be all right. Keep

785
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:18.440
<v Speaker 3>your eyes and ears out.

786
00:35:18.559 --> 00:37:20.000
<v Speaker 2>We'll cut you guys on the next one.
