WEBVTT 1 00:00:05.960 --> 00:00:08.679 When I started aching and laid down, and that's when 2 00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:11.720 he said, hey, are those those like monkey sounds? When 3 00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:15.160 they they came up from right down over that steep bank, 4 00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:19.679 straight up through here, straight through these trees all the 5 00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:24.160 way around, or a tent all the way around back 6 00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:28.960 to here, and that's when they proceeded to screams for 7 00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:34.759 hour and a half, two hours, for an intense moment 8 00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:38.000 in my life. It was right here is where it 9 00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:41.520 happened at and they were right inside these trees all 10 00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:42.560 the way around us. 11 00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.359 I mean, you can you can see how close the 12 00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:49.679 tree line is, so they were right inside the tree line. 13 00:00:49.679 --> 00:00:52.159 You're saying, right inside, and except for the big one. 14 00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:55.039 He would he'd be by that tree and walk up 15 00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:57.240 to the back of the tent and then I'd talk 16 00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:00.000 louder and he'd back back up and you could feel 17 00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:04.760 the ground, you could feel the voices going through your body. 18 00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:06.799 It was so. 19 00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:13.439 Intense that it was unexplainable. I'm dumbfounded, and we get 20 00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:18.760 action all the time. I'm grateful that he got to 21 00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:21.439 see him.

Enjoy. We'll first start by talking to Chad 39 00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:41.560 about the events that happened on Tuesday, July sixteenth and 40 00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:46.159 that led into Wednesday, July seventeenth. All right, Chad, do 41 00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:50.240 you mind first stating your full name and why you 42 00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:54.280 were present for the events of what happened in Oakridge. 43 00:02:56.439 --> 00:03:00.879 My full name is Chad Edward Data MOP was present 44 00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:06.719 at these events because I'm a bigfoot researcher and was 45 00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.680 invited as a speaker at a conference in Oregon, and 46 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:13.080 then I was taken out into some areas on the 47 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:17.360 first night that I was there by people that have 48 00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:22.199 had multiple experiences. 49 00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:25.280 Perfect And the first night you were there was that Tuesday, 50 00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:28.400 July sixteenth. 51 00:03:28.479 --> 00:03:35.360 Yes, actually it was a seventeenth. It was a seventeenth. 52 00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:38.800 Perfect And why don't you go ahead and share? What 53 00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:44.520 were some things you first experienced on Wednesday the seventeenth 54 00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:46.560 From your perspective. 55 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:54.000 Well, we are Rove and Priscilla, the host of Sasquatch Summerfest, 56 00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:58.000 had picked us up, and I had got to meet 57 00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:02.120 your father, Ronald Rossman, Greg Guy and talked to Dwayne, 58 00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:09.919 his friend, both experiencers. Well, that night, Priscilla had to 59 00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:13.360 go get some moss and nobody was willing to go, 60 00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:14.960 and I said, what the heck, I'll go with you, 61 00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:19.199 and we go out way back into this area where 62 00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:26.079 there's ben encounters by multiple witnesses and we're just picking 63 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:31.639 moss out of these trees and you know, we weren't 64 00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:35.279 there for bigfoot, but I'm always paying attention, and I 65 00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:38.600 just like felt something. I started explaining to Priscilla, your 66 00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:42.199 best form of defense, actually at night, i'm lethal for 67 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:46.920 these creatures is a super bright flashlight. So I showed 68 00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:49.800 her I had my one flashlight on my side that 69 00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:52.040 I wasn't using to pick the moss because it's so bright. 70 00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:54.279 I pulled it out and I focused on being like 71 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.839 I focus in, and I started shining in the woods, 72 00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:04.800 and I saw this yellow reflecting eye, and I said, Priscilla, 73 00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:07.000 there's something reflecting there. Then all of a sudden, it 74 00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:09.600 was two eyes, like it was behind a tree. I 75 00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:11.959 could kind of see the tree a little bit. It 76 00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:15.480 was one hundred feet away and it was black out there. 77 00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:19.480 And then she's looking at it and she's like, yeah, 78 00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:21.600 I see it. Then all of a sudden, two more 79 00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:26.199 yellow gold eyes appeared a little bit lower than the 80 00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.120 one we were looking at. So now we're looking at 81 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:32.120 two sets of eyes, and I'm like, we have Priscilla's 82 00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:35.240 seven year old granddaughter with us. She's in the car. 83 00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:40.519 I'm like, Priscilla, you want to walk towards this, which 84 00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:42.879 if I was like with somebody else I would have 85 00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:46.920 actually approached it, but Priscilla seemed a little nervous, and 86 00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:50.560 we did have the granddaughter, and so I agreed with 87 00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:54.319 her and we left, and as we're leaving, I said, 88 00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.360 drive slow, I want to shine. I still want to 89 00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:01.800 shine in there. And there was actually another set of 90 00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:04.040 eyes as we leave, and well, in fact, there was 91 00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.720 a total of three. So we had saw the two. 92 00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:11.560 And when I sent Priscilla to the car, and she 93 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:14.879 goes to the car first because we're close to these things, 94 00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:18.040 well we within one hundred feet and we're one hundred 95 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:20.079 yards from the car, so I told her to go. 96 00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:22.199 I stayed there with the lights on them. Then I 97 00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:24.720 walked about halfway and when I turned around, there was 98 00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:28.720 a third set of eyes. And we get in the 99 00:06:28.759 --> 00:06:30.560 car and we leave, and I want to shine. So 100 00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:35.079 we saw probably one of them again, unless there was 101 00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:37.720 a fourth that we hadn't happened to see when we 102 00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:38.800 were out picking the moss. 103 00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:43.480 I remember you talking about that sighting multiple times when 104 00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:48.199 we were having conversations during that week, and you usually 105 00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:51.399 would say, you know, Jeremiah, I know what I saw. 106 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:55.759 I'm not crazy. I mean, it really affected you. Intensely. 107 00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:02.000 I know what I saw, Jeremiah, I know what I 108 00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:03.399 saw absolutely. 109 00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:09.839 This is the same day, So I just I want 110 00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.240 to clarify dates because it has been a little bit 111 00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.959 of time. So this happened on the same day. I 112 00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:20.199 believe that I flew in on the Wednesday, because later 113 00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:23.839 on we went back out that same day and stayed 114 00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:25.879 out pretty late, me, you and Sherry. 115 00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:29.800 Right, yeah, you came out. You flew in that day, 116 00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:35.040 and we went out that night after all this had 117 00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:35.800 already happened. 118 00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:41.079 So I just missed probably some of the most craziest 119 00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:45.279 stuff that happened in the week. Just missed it. But 120 00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.720 I want to throw in something. I was trying to 121 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:52.639 think of what happened that night, Wednesday night, And the 122 00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:57.759 weirdest thing was I remember you shining your flashlight on 123 00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:00.839 the edge of the meadow, and it was a pretty 124 00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:05.439 blight bright flashlight. You've shown it into the tree line, 125 00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:08.519 and a half second later there was a huge stick 126 00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:13.480 break not too far away where from where you shined 127 00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:17.199 your flashlight. And that was probably the first weird thing 128 00:08:17.279 --> 00:08:18.639 I experienced in that area. 129 00:08:20.120 --> 00:08:23.959 Yep, yep, I do remember the stick break. We could 130 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.079 attribute it attribute it to anything, but because of what 131 00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:31.839 happened right in that spot, I mean, we're going to 132 00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:34.519 we're going to think bigfoot. But the thing is, we 133 00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:37.440 only heard one break. It's not like an animal went 134 00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:41.919 crash into the woods. We just heard one crack out 135 00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:44.720 of nowhere and it was calm mm hmm. 136 00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:49.759 Absolutely. Now, there had been a sighting on the edge 137 00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:53.360 of the meadow of one jumping down from a tree, right. 138 00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:00.399 I don't know if I heard that one. I didn't 139 00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.039 hear about one jump from a tree, but I heard 140 00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:06.159 There's been a lot of sightings up there, so you 141 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:08.960 might have got that inclusive, you know, at the conference, 142 00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:11.320 because you talked to a lot of people from the area. 143 00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:16.279 This is exactly why I'm spending I should have done 144 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:19.799 all these interviews at the week that I was there, 145 00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:23.039 but my legs started having a bacterial infection and I 146 00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:28.279 was kind of not really with it. But I believe 147 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.639 I'll get that sighting from one of the other parties 148 00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:34.440 that was involved. And there's so many people that were 149 00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:38.440 involved with being up in the area of the meadows. 150 00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:43.960 Were there any other things that happened out of the 151 00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:46.279 ordinary or anything you noticed? I know, you put some 152 00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:48.600 fruit up in that area as well. 153 00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:56.000 Yeah, well, I don't really know what to say about 154 00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:58.519 the fruit. The apples and oranges were on the ground. 155 00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:02.279 The banana was peeled and just a peel left there. 156 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.960 I don't know what to think about that. We left 157 00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:10.000 apples in another place and they disappeared. We left three 158 00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:17.919 where Priscilla and I had our night sighting, So that 159 00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:20.480 was the only fruit that we left out there. But 160 00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:22.919 I h there was a night we were out there 161 00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:25.000 where we hiked up the mountain. You didn't want to 162 00:10:25.039 --> 00:10:26.480 go with us, don't you remember that night? 163 00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:27.759 Absolutely? 164 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:29.480 Yeah? 165 00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:34.879 Yeah, me Jason and Gwendolyn and we did. And on 166 00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:38.759 our way down we found this weirdest thing like root 167 00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:42.120 like not pulled out of a tree and they were 168 00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:48.120 like place on a log right there for us to see, 169 00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.320 and you know, it was just weird just to find that. 170 00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:55.600 And these things were like long daggers, like twelve fourteen 171 00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:58.559 inch not pulled out a tree with points in them. 172 00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:02.000 They were beautiful if that. Gwendolyn saved one. I left 173 00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:06.000 one for Priscilla. I think Sherry left or I think 174 00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:09.120 Jason took his. So I left mine because I couldn't 175 00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:11.080 take it on the plane. I didn't want to smuggle 176 00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:15.919 it on the plane, but I do believe Gwendolyn smuggled her. 177 00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:19.919 And they were laid so symmetrically next to each other. 178 00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:22.799 It was it was weird. Did they put do it? 179 00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:26.200 I don't know, but I don't think a person did 180 00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:26.639 it either. 181 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.559 It doesn't make sense because it sounds like where you 182 00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:35.799 walked up to that area, this isn't by a trail, right, 183 00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:37.559 this is just in the middle of the woods. 184 00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:42.639 There's a trail, but it's not a heavily. 185 00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:45.000 Utilized gotcha, gotcha? 186 00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:48.639 How is it? I'm just trying to figure out how 187 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:53.279 a human could get the the knot the not where 188 00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:56.120 a branch, so where a branch comes out of a tree, 189 00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:58.759 they got the hole knot where it lives in the 190 00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:02.080 tree and feeds off of the and there were like 191 00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:03.879 they were like sharp daggers. 192 00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:05.519 I've never seen anything like it. 193 00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.759 And it logically we took the photo before we touched them. 194 00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:12.519 That's right, yep, it's It's one of the weirdest things 195 00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.559 I've ever seen. And I mean, uh, it's par for 196 00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:19.039 the course for that area because there have been other 197 00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:21.799 people that I mean Sherry alone has had her name 198 00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:25.480 called from that area. I believe that was on Sunday night. 199 00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:29.279 It was the same night that we're talking about. It's 200 00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:32.000 just some weird, weird stuff in that area. 201 00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:38.639 Branches break from started over and then we listen and 202 00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:42.759 it just stopped moving and we start talking, and then 203 00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:47.519 there's a snap over here, and we'd listen and it 204 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:52.399 kept doing that, and it got us, you know, another snap, 205 00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.480 and my daughter got up to look with me. I 206 00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:00.600 was looking already, and she got up and turn this 207 00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:04.240 direction and we didn't see nothing then, but then all 208 00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:07.720 of a sudden, crash crash, crash, crash, crash, and I 209 00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:11.799 see this black shape leap out of this stuff and 210 00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:15.639 go that way. Well, I was thinking, is that a 211 00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:19.919 bear because it looks small, right, but being right here 212 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.039 next to it, yeah, I'm. 213 00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:26.080 Telling you what happened last night. They weren't aggressive at all. 214 00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:27.960 I was a nervous. 215 00:13:29.159 --> 00:13:29.360 You know. 216 00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:33.000 We had to little girl with us and Priscilla, and 217 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:35.960 I'm like Priscilla, I wanted to go toward him because 218 00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:38.679 I didn't couldn't hardly believe what I was seeing, and 219 00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:41.200 I wanted to verify. I know what it was. I know, 220 00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:46.080 I know exactly what it was, and then she didn't 221 00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:48.679 want to go towards it all with me, and I'm 222 00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:51.000 glad we didn't go towards him because that way we 223 00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:54.000 weren't threatening. I hagg the light on him. I said, 224 00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:56.840 do you go to the car? And I held the 225 00:13:56.960 --> 00:13:59.159 light on him and I washed him. She walked the car. 226 00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:03.120 She walked like three hundred feet, like almost a football field, 227 00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:06.120 to the car. And when she got up there, then 228 00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:09.240 I turned the flashlight so I could see because she 229 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:12.960 had a flashlight. And I started walking and I got 230 00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:15.840 about one hundred and fifty and I turned and shined 231 00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:19.960 the light. They were all in the same place, but 232 00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:24.519 now there was three instead of two. When I turned 233 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:28.159 and I'm like, okay, they had pursued towards I'm halfway there. 234 00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:32.480 Then I turned, I walked, We got in the car. Eve, 235 00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:36.720 It's like, let's go. Let's go, like me and Prisuona, Dude, 236 00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:41.039 that's real. I know what I saw and Eve it's like, oh, 237 00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:43.200 we gotta go, we gotta go, so we're going. 238 00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:47.200 Our interviews continue with July eighteenth, which was a Wednesday, 239 00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:51.919 talking more to Chad about how he went up to 240 00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:55.879 the area again with Ronnie and Dwayne, and then that 241 00:14:56.000 --> 00:15:01.399 day concludes with audio from my self and Dwayne up 242 00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:06.480 in the Oak Hole Research area. Also president is Denise 243 00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:11.440 Sherry and Chad. 244 00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:18.720 But we went back the next day. I took Ron 245 00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:23.080 back and we went with Dwayne and we went to 246 00:15:23.159 --> 00:15:26.480 look and we located the spot for footprints and there 247 00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:31.000 were footprints all over like depressions, and there was one 248 00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:35.799 that was measured at they said like twenty inches. That 249 00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:40.000 was like easy, eighteen inches, and they were like but 250 00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:43.200 they weren't defined. They were just like the shape of 251 00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:44.320 a foot depression. 252 00:15:44.960 --> 00:15:47.799 Big for society. Who will be right back after these messages. 253 00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:09.240 You didn't see toes because of the ground surface a substrate, 254 00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:12.679 it wasn't feasible for a good track in that area. 255 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:15.440 But you could see definitely where something heavy had stood 256 00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:18.960 all over behind these trees where Priscilla and I saw this. 257 00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:23.720 And this was on the day that you went back. 258 00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:29.399 It would have been around eight thirty okay in the morning, gotcha. 259 00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:37.879 And after we observed all of that, then Ron and 260 00:16:38.000 --> 00:16:41.159 Duyne wanted me to take to want to take me 261 00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:43.879 just which is right close by within a mile or 262 00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:45.799 so mile and a half at the month by the 263 00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:50.039 drive straight line, probably three quarters of a mile. They 264 00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:52.720 wanted to take me to where they had their their 265 00:16:52.840 --> 00:17:00.679 terrifying experience one night, and so we go up there 266 00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:04.039 and we put out lawn chairs right on the road, 267 00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:07.079 right by the meadow where they had all this. We 268 00:17:07.119 --> 00:17:09.480 sat there. We sat there for hour and a half 269 00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:14.119 and then Ron needed to run into town, wanted to 270 00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:18.599 get lunch and some things to drink. And Sherry slept 271 00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:22.400 in because of the flight from the night before. She 272 00:17:22.559 --> 00:17:25.720 was exhausted, had way less sleep than me, and so 273 00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:28.680 he was to pick her up. But during the time 274 00:17:28.759 --> 00:17:32.400 he was gone, he left, and within between thirty and 275 00:17:32.440 --> 00:17:38.480 forty five minutes, we started hearing like cracking, like footsteps. 276 00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:42.920 My back was to it. Dwayne was facing torchs that 277 00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:46.240 we're in camping chairs on the side of this like 278 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:50.119 two track. My back's to it. He's facing me, and 279 00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:53.799 his daughter's off to the side, and they're hearing it, 280 00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:59.160 and I'm like this, just keep listening and see what happens. Well, 281 00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:02.039 then I don't know, you know what happened, because we 282 00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:04.599 heard it for I don't know, good minute and a half. 283 00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:07.039 Then all of a sudden, it just started. It crashed 284 00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:09.480 the woods. My back's to it, I didn't see it. 285 00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:14.400 Dwayne saw it. He said it was black and it 286 00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:17.319 ran through the woods. His daughter didn't see it because 287 00:18:17.359 --> 00:18:20.119 she wasn't quite facing at it. We all heard it, 288 00:18:20.799 --> 00:18:23.279 and I'm like, okay, well, let's just sit here. We 289 00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:29.200 didn't like go in or anything. And within I don't know, 290 00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:34.119 fifteen to twenty minutes maybe, I mean, it's hard to tell. 291 00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:36.720 In time, all of a sudden we get roared at. 292 00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:41.680 I mean, this roar. That is incredible, that there's bear 293 00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:45.559 can't roar this long and at this And it was 294 00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:49.359 a distance away, not real far, but a distance. And 295 00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:54.559 Dwayne and Denise, his daughter, they got a little paranoid 296 00:18:54.599 --> 00:18:57.599 because they had bad experiences with getting growled and roared 297 00:18:57.599 --> 00:19:00.880 at like that. I told them, We're okay, okay, let's 298 00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:04.599 just sit here, just sit here. We're fine. I don't know. 299 00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:10.920 Fifteen seconds went by, and then the roar, same rule, 300 00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:15.480 but it was louder and closer and in the and 301 00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:18.559 I mean, I saw the panic in their face. And 302 00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:25.079 I'll be honest, I'm not often intimidated, but it was 303 00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:28.039 really really intimidating to me. And I just looked at him. 304 00:19:28.039 --> 00:19:30.319 I said, all right, it's time to go. So we 305 00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:32.839 jump in their vehicle and we drive up maybe a 306 00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:39.640 half mile and because we can't leave because Ronnie's coming 307 00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:42.880 back with Sherry and stuff, and if we leave, he's 308 00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:46.480 just gonna go right there and we're gonna be gone. 309 00:19:46.519 --> 00:19:48.839 So we pull up and we find the spot to park. 310 00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:53.880 We parked there and we wait, and we're waiting, and 311 00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:57.440 we're while we're waiting, we're I mean, we're on high 312 00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:00.880 alert because of what just happened. We're like just scanning 313 00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.119 the high hills behind us, like the cliffs of the 314 00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:07.559 mountain or some behind us that it's up like fifty feet. 315 00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:12.000 We're scanning across this big, huge ravine to a mountain 316 00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:16.720 on the other side. It's all like totally visible. And 317 00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:19.720 I just happened to look to my left and I 318 00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:23.279 just stare there at this area, and all of a sudden, 319 00:20:24.079 --> 00:20:30.079 this upright dark object just goes running down this hill. 320 00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:32.880 I saw it at the mouse for a second to 321 00:20:32.920 --> 00:20:34.880 a second and half, but I know what I saw. 322 00:20:35.160 --> 00:20:39.960 And it ran upright down this big steep hill right 323 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:44.920 in front of us. They didn't see it. I saw it. 324 00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:49.200 But this is within half a mile of where all 325 00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:51.960 this other stuff just happened a few minutes before that. 326 00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:59.480 Ohoh, it's got like a really weird shivery feeling.

Now that I'm here, that's wild. 367 00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:47.839 You get a chance and maybe get that role and 368 00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:49.200 then you'll really go wow. 369 00:24:50.599 --> 00:24:53.240 Ronnie is a great guy though. He's a good dude. 370 00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:03.960 Now what, no way, that's it. 371 00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:07.279 That's what what he's mimicking. Is that sound there? And 372 00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:13.160 I can't tell you whether that's a bird that no way, 373 00:25:13.240 --> 00:25:18.119 not the robin, but when that one that bird, that's 374 00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:20.960 the whistle that these big foot if you have been 375 00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:28.559 mimicking to us that whistle right there, that's the whistle 376 00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:30.920 my daughter was whistling back and I'm back and forth 377 00:25:31.000 --> 00:25:41.519 up here, was that whistle right there. I'm gonna try 378 00:25:41.519 --> 00:25:43.559 to figure out what what kind of bird that is, 379 00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:48.640 just so I know what they're mimicking. And could he 380 00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:50.359 back in another spot too? 381 00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:50.920 Right now? 382 00:25:53.079 --> 00:26:19.720 Well, they couldn't even booth spots. Oh, it took a 383 00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:21.880 long time to talk. Ronnie is coming up here? 384 00:26:22.680 --> 00:26:23.359 I bet yeah. 385 00:26:23.519 --> 00:26:24.759 They were wanting to go down. 386 00:26:24.640 --> 00:26:25.440 On the swamps. 387 00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:27.839 Man asked the place to be. That's the place I 388 00:26:27.960 --> 00:26:31.759 kept telling her. I'm telling you it's not as good. 389 00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:36.160 Right, Fine, So the swamps are how far away from here? 390 00:26:36.799 --> 00:26:37.319 A long way? 391 00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:40.440 Yeah, there's some on the corner over there. 392 00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:42.440 And then it drips into another layer. 393 00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:43.200 And there's a creek. 394 00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:51.519 We're us hearing it here and with the cracks, and 395 00:26:51.640 --> 00:26:54.799 then for some reason it freaked out and went crashing 396 00:26:54.920 --> 00:26:57.880 through the woods. My back was to it. I trust 397 00:26:59.119 --> 00:27:02.000 this man was what he saw. He was facing it. 398 00:27:02.720 --> 00:27:05.400 And then when he said bear, he says, it had 399 00:27:05.440 --> 00:27:07.039 to be a bear. It was black, and I'm like, 400 00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:10.559 didn't sound like a bear, and if it was a bear, 401 00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:13.440
