00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:40.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

12
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:42.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Well, I'll tell you that it's been a busy day.

13
00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:43.679
<v Speaker 3>I mean I kind of I think I woke up

14
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:46.079
<v Speaker 3>wearing my running shoes or something, because I woke up

15
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:49.679
<v Speaker 3>and have not stopped since. I think I've had about

16
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:52.960
<v Speaker 3>eight minutes down And I take that back. I drove

17
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:54.920
<v Speaker 3>to the I drove to work, so I had fifteen

18
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:57.119
<v Speaker 3>minutes of uninterrupted peace for a moment. But other than that,

19
00:00:57.119 --> 00:01:00.640
<v Speaker 3>I've been busy, busy, busy. The cast streamed down the

20
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.200
<v Speaker 3>in the outbuilding is nearing not nearing completion, but the

21
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:07.400
<v Speaker 3>first phase is definitely close to being done. Hanging doors,

22
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:09.200
<v Speaker 3>doing all that sort of stuff. Had to go to

23
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:11.280
<v Speaker 3>work today because there's a flu going around and one

24
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:13.239
<v Speaker 3>of my employees was out, so I had dropped by

25
00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:16.640
<v Speaker 3>work and all chaos broke out there because all sorts

26
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:19.359
<v Speaker 3>of stuff was going on, good stuff, good stuff. When

27
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:21.719
<v Speaker 3>I right when I walked in, Niko was there and

28
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:23.000
<v Speaker 3>he goes, hey, there's a guy in the back that

29
00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:25.400
<v Speaker 3>knew Paul Freeman. He said, no kidding. So I went

30
00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 3>back there and talked to him, and I guess Paul

31
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:30.599
<v Speaker 3>Freeman was like part of the four H Club or something,

32
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:33.079
<v Speaker 3>and he knew this guy and he was better friends

33
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:35.359
<v Speaker 3>with Wes Summerlin. So he's telling me the stories about

34
00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:39.959
<v Speaker 3>Wes and Paul and everything, and then he goes, oh,

35
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:41.799
<v Speaker 3>footprint casts, I'll show you what I do with these,

36
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:43.200
<v Speaker 3>you know. And he shows me a picture on his

37
00:01:43.239 --> 00:01:45.480
<v Speaker 3>phone of a footprint cast that I've never seen before.

38
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:48.120
<v Speaker 3>I go, wow, where'd you get this? Because he mentioned

39
00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:50.760
<v Speaker 3>how Grover Krantz is I think sister or niece or

40
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:53.400
<v Speaker 3>somebody had a store in the Kennewick area, the Tri

41
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:56.280
<v Speaker 3>City area, and is that one of the Krantz I've

42
00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:58.439
<v Speaker 3>never seen that. I've never seen that cast before. He goes, oh, no,

43
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:00.599
<v Speaker 3>that's when my friend gave me down in hum Or,

44
00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 3>Northern California, somewhere and there's a there's a creek down

45
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.560
<v Speaker 3>there off the Smith River, and he's got a couple

46
00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:07.319
<v Speaker 3>of them off there, and go, no kidding, So he's

47
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:09.439
<v Speaker 3>going to try to find out He's going to try

48
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:11.080
<v Speaker 3>to find the name of the creek and tell me

49
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:11.560
<v Speaker 3>what it was.

50
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:15.439
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but anything anything that those Wilson Creek tracks.

51
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:18.280
<v Speaker 3>Wilson Creek maybe it is. I don't know, but I

52
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:20.000
<v Speaker 3>have his number, I have his name and everything. But

53
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:21.800
<v Speaker 3>check this out. That wasn't even the end of it.

54
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.280
<v Speaker 3>You know, I'm going to try to copy that at

55
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:26.159
<v Speaker 3>some point. I think I kind of mentioned like, well,

56
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:27.919
<v Speaker 3>I drive through Kennewick every once in a while if

57
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:29.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm out there, would you mind if I drop by

58
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:31.520
<v Speaker 3>and maybe make a quick copy of it? And he

59
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:33.240
<v Speaker 3>didn't seem to be adverse to that, which is kind

60
00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:36.560
<v Speaker 3>of cool, but the same the same guy. He goes, oh, yeah,

61
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:38.599
<v Speaker 3>you know my son. I think it was my son.

62
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:42.599
<v Speaker 3>My son filmed one one time. What he goes, yeah, yeah, well, god,

63
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:43.800
<v Speaker 3>maybe you can get me in touch with them. I'd

64
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:44.879
<v Speaker 3>love to see it. And he goes, oh, it's on

65
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:47.159
<v Speaker 3>my phone. I'll just show you. So oh yeah, sure, okay,

66
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:49.719
<v Speaker 3>And so he pulls out his phone, and I guess

67
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:52.680
<v Speaker 3>the story was. It was on Tiger Canyon Road out

68
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:55.199
<v Speaker 3>in the Blues, you know. So it was wintertime and

69
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.879
<v Speaker 3>there's this there's a gate over there on the road

70
00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:00.000
<v Speaker 3>that goes up and during the winter time they close it.

71
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:03.159
<v Speaker 3>So these guys they backed their snowmobile, like they back

72
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 3>their trucks up against the gate and then put their

73
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:07.719
<v Speaker 3>snowmobiles over the gate, you know, in this drive up

74
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:10.719
<v Speaker 3>Tiger Canyon Road. And so what they did is they

75
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 3>drove up kind of towards the top and you know,

76
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.000
<v Speaker 3>did their hanging out and goofing around and like they're doing,

77
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:17.840
<v Speaker 3>just enjoying their snowmobile day. On the way back down,

78
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:21.439
<v Speaker 3>herd a elk cross in front of their snowmobile, and

79
00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:23.080
<v Speaker 3>so they stopped for a minute and they filmed it

80
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:25.479
<v Speaker 3>and everything, and then they kind of swung the camera

81
00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:29.000
<v Speaker 3>up on the hill and filmed a big bull elk

82
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:30.599
<v Speaker 3>up on top of the hill and kind of swung

83
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:32.120
<v Speaker 3>it back around. And that was the end of it

84
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:34.639
<v Speaker 3>as far as they were concerned. And then he shared

85
00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:36.879
<v Speaker 3>the footage with his dad, the guy I met today,

86
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:40.599
<v Speaker 3>and his dad saw something in the footage in the footage.

87
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:42.240
<v Speaker 3>And you know, it's like, when I heard that, my

88
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:43.960
<v Speaker 3>heart sang. It's like, oh, it's one of these things.

89
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:45.520
<v Speaker 3>I didn't see it at the time until I saw

90
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:47.960
<v Speaker 3>into the back. I'm thinking, oh, this is gonna be Paradoia. Right,

91
00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:51.719
<v Speaker 3>it's not. It's not Paradoia. He showed. I guess when

92
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:54.719
<v Speaker 3>the guys swung the camera up to the elk up

93
00:03:54.759 --> 00:03:56.280
<v Speaker 3>on the hill, the bull elk up on and this

94
00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:58.840
<v Speaker 3>is like three hundred plus yards away probably it's a

95
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:01.800
<v Speaker 3>good distance away. And I didn't even see the elk

96
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:03.960
<v Speaker 3>at first. I had to watch it twice before I

97
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.159
<v Speaker 3>saw the elk. He goes, Yeah, there's the elk. And

98
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:07.800
<v Speaker 3>if you look over here, blah blah blah, and this

99
00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:10.240
<v Speaker 3>little patch of trees there right there, you can see

100
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:12.000
<v Speaker 3>it moving. And I'm thinking, oh, it's just going to

101
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.039
<v Speaker 3>be a stump or no. No, you can see a

102
00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:16.759
<v Speaker 3>human shape figure moving through the trees.

103
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:17.600
<v Speaker 4>Really.

104
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:20.279
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, it's not nothing to write

105
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:21.839
<v Speaker 3>home about, but it's something to share with you guys,

106
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:23.959
<v Speaker 3>because you guys are big foot folks like me and

107
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:27.240
<v Speaker 3>get excited over small little tidbits. I don't have the footage.

108
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:28.879
<v Speaker 3>There's nothing I can share or anything like that. But

109
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:31.720
<v Speaker 3>I saw it and it's pretty cool, and I'm thinking, okay,

110
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:34.000
<v Speaker 3>think of the context here. These guys are a few

111
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:38.079
<v Speaker 3>miles probably up past the gate where you're not allowed

112
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:40.680
<v Speaker 3>to go, and there's snow all over the place, and

113
00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:43.959
<v Speaker 3>this thing is three five hundred yards up the mountain

114
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:46.920
<v Speaker 3>side on top, and it's really difficult to get to location.

115
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:48.959
<v Speaker 3>The water sheds right on the other side of it

116
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:50.240
<v Speaker 3>because it's Tiger Canyon Road.

117
00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:52.160
<v Speaker 4>You know, you got a sense of size for it.

118
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:54.000
<v Speaker 4>I looking at the el now.

119
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:56.319
<v Speaker 3>It's hard to say. But the guy he is going

120
00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:59.360
<v Speaker 3>to email me the footage so I can zoom in

121
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:02.160
<v Speaker 3>and stable and do my sorcery with it, you know.

122
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:04.000
<v Speaker 3>So I'm going to take a look at it. Maybe

123
00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:06.639
<v Speaker 3>maybe there's something else to learn, But right now I'm

124
00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:08.600
<v Speaker 3>not super hopeful that we were going to, you know,

125
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:11.560
<v Speaker 3>squeeze a lot more information out here. But I have

126
00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:16.240
<v Speaker 3>the general location, I have the context, I've got the story.

127
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:19.600
<v Speaker 3>I'll probably maybe contact the guy and see what he

128
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:21.360
<v Speaker 3>has to say about it. But remember he didn't see

129
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:23.439
<v Speaker 3>it at the time, so I'm not sure what else

130
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:25.600
<v Speaker 3>I would learn from that, but I'll try anyway, because

131
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:27.279
<v Speaker 3>you never know what you're going to learn, you know.

132
00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:30.519
<v Speaker 3>But even before that, you know, I got you know,

133
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:33.399
<v Speaker 3>last year, if you remember, I did that Sportsman show

134
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:36.920
<v Speaker 3>here in Portland, and a couple of the people I

135
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:38.959
<v Speaker 3>met there were of interest. And one of the guys

136
00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:42.319
<v Speaker 3>said that, oh, yeah, my friends cast some prints down

137
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:44.879
<v Speaker 3>by the Shasta areas what he told me, And I said, oh,

138
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:46.879
<v Speaker 3>I'd love to you know, if you ever see those people,

139
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:48.720
<v Speaker 3>I'd love to see fo you know, pictures of the

140
00:05:48.759 --> 00:05:51.560
<v Speaker 3>cast or whatever. And you know, crickets for like the

141
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:54.160
<v Speaker 3>last year. And then like two weeks ago, a week ago,

142
00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:56.199
<v Speaker 3>he reached out to me, I'm down here, I'm going

143
00:05:56.240 --> 00:05:58.120
<v Speaker 3>to see these cats. Oh great, great, once you send

144
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:02.120
<v Speaker 3>me pictures. And he did. He did today and apparently

145
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:05.000
<v Speaker 3>it wasn't Shasta, it was Trinity Lake. And he lives

146
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:07.800
<v Speaker 3>out there somewhere, you know, like east of View somewhere,

147
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:10.639
<v Speaker 3>but out in that general direction I think on probably

148
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:12.279
<v Speaker 3>on the reading side of the mountains, you know what

149
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:14.959
<v Speaker 3>I mean. And he's sure enough. He sent me pictures

150
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:19.160
<v Speaker 3>of the cast and some pictures of photographs of the

151
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:22.360
<v Speaker 3>footprints in the ground, and they are beautiful, they look

152
00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:25.439
<v Speaker 3>really really cool, and the guy's an older guy and

153
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:27.720
<v Speaker 3>he doesn't want me nosing around or talking to him,

154
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:29.560
<v Speaker 3>so I don't get to talk to him, unfortunately. But

155
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:31.480
<v Speaker 3>at least I got the pictures of the cast.

156
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:33.199
<v Speaker 4>Was there a scale reference?

157
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:34.319
<v Speaker 3>Not really?

158
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:34.879
<v Speaker 4>Not really?

159
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:38.240
<v Speaker 3>They look pretty good size, and again it's not Unfortunately,

160
00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:40.120
<v Speaker 3>I didn't really ask if I could share them with,

161
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:42.040
<v Speaker 3>you know, the public, so I can't really post them

162
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:44.240
<v Speaker 3>on Patreon or anything like that, like what we normally

163
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:45.319
<v Speaker 3>do about these sort of things.

164
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:46.759
<v Speaker 4>You put them on Patreon.

165
00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:49.120
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you what. I will text the guy and

166
00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:52.040
<v Speaker 3>ask him if if I can share them, and if

167
00:06:52.079 --> 00:06:54.399
<v Speaker 3>I can, then our members will see him. You know,

168
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:56.160
<v Speaker 3>it's the bottom line. So but I'll all of a

169
00:06:56.160 --> 00:06:57.879
<v Speaker 3>sudden to you guys, because you're not going to go

170
00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:01.199
<v Speaker 3>anywhere with them. They looked very very good anyway. Yeah,

171
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:04.199
<v Speaker 3>just another day in close life, chalk full of bigfoot stuff,

172
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:06.720
<v Speaker 3>rushing around doing this and that, and then coming on

173
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:10.040
<v Speaker 3>a podcast getting ready to hear a fantastic story from

174
00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:10.800
<v Speaker 3>what I understand.

175
00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:14.279
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, dude, this guy had a great, great up.

176
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:16.240
<v Speaker 5>I mean, you're not going to get any closer than this,

177
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:19.639
<v Speaker 5>and it's and it's just burned, is it happened a

178
00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:22.240
<v Speaker 5>long time ago, but it's burned into his brain and

179
00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:24.600
<v Speaker 5>he's you know, you'll get the sense of this guy

180
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:25.360
<v Speaker 5>when you talk to him.

181
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:28.160
<v Speaker 4>He's just salt of the earth, good honest person.

182
00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:30.160
<v Speaker 3>So well, let's get on it, man.

183
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:34.480
<v Speaker 5>I met Jack back in Ohio, Kentucky, at one of

184
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:38.000
<v Speaker 5>the conferences. He's friends with Charlie Raymond, and he told

185
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:40.519
<v Speaker 5>me a story that blew my mind. I was just like,

186
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 5>oh my gosh, this guy's he's got quite a tale

187
00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:45.759
<v Speaker 5>and he's a good, solid guy.

188
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:46.680
<v Speaker 4>Charlie Boucher's form.

189
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:49.319
<v Speaker 5>I've known him for a while and he's just a good,

190
00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:52.720
<v Speaker 5>you know, honest dude. So I thought you'd enjoy listening

191
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:53.040
<v Speaker 5>to him.

192
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:55.360
<v Speaker 3>I always loved me a good story. So yeah, gohad

193
00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:57.279
<v Speaker 3>and lay lay it honest, Jack. I mean, I can't.

194
00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:59.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm looking forward to hearing what you have to say.

195
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:03.439
<v Speaker 6>Well, I took a few notes here this afternoon when

196
00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:06.600
<v Speaker 6>I got in here, and I thought i'd give you

197
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:10.680
<v Speaker 6>just a briefing. Odinsboro, Kentucky. It's where I was born.

198
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:14.839
<v Speaker 6>It's in Davis County, Kentucky. At the age of four,

199
00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:19.399
<v Speaker 6>we moved to Sargo, Kentucky, which it's in Davis County

200
00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:23.959
<v Speaker 6>and it's about let's say, from the downtown Winnsboro. It

201
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:28.040
<v Speaker 6>was about ten to twelve miles on the west side

202
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:32.039
<v Speaker 6>of town. And yeah, when I was four of us

203
00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:35.000
<v Speaker 6>when we moved out there. By the time I was

204
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:37.440
<v Speaker 6>six years old, my mom and dad took the four

205
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:40.320
<v Speaker 6>of us kids at that time. That's how many was

206
00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:43.159
<v Speaker 6>in the family, four kids, and we went on a

207
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:47.240
<v Speaker 6>six week vacation. We went to al Capoco and Mexico

208
00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:54.000
<v Speaker 6>and went through the Alamo, through the deserts California, Redwood Forest,

209
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:59.320
<v Speaker 6>Grand Canyon, Mount Rushmore, and all in between. And by

210
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:01.679
<v Speaker 6>going on that trip, I know that it helped me

211
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:07.159
<v Speaker 6>in my memory remember things very well. Actually, my dad,

212
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:09.639
<v Speaker 6>when I was a sophomore in high school, we went

213
00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.240
<v Speaker 6>back out to Rushmore and before we got there, I said, Dad,

214
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:15.720
<v Speaker 6>I said, I can tell you what that parking lot

215
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 6>looks like before we get there. And I did. And

216
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:20.360
<v Speaker 6>he turned he said, how and the heck do you

217
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:23.559
<v Speaker 6>remember that? I said, I just, I do. I said

218
00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:26.240
<v Speaker 6>it was so awesome going out there, I said, I just.

219
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:28.360
<v Speaker 6>I said. When we pulled up, I said, this is

220
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:31.559
<v Speaker 6>just what I remembered. I said, it's the same thing.

221
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:34.679
<v Speaker 6>He said, well, you're right. He said, well, that's hard

222
00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:36.320
<v Speaker 6>for me to believe, but he said, you are one

223
00:09:36.360 --> 00:09:41.279
<v Speaker 6>hundred percent right. Well, about nineteen sixty seven to sixty

224
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:44.840
<v Speaker 6>nine in that area, we were hearing a lot of

225
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:49.399
<v Speaker 6>people talking about a big harry wildman running around and

226
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:53.399
<v Speaker 6>his name was the Hermit. A matter of fact, the

227
00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:56.639
<v Speaker 6>lady that I even talked to tonight, she said, I

228
00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:59.399
<v Speaker 6>remember those years. I remember when the hermit was running

229
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:03.559
<v Speaker 6>around David And she said, that's exactly what people were calling.

230
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.039
<v Speaker 6>It was the hermit that in nineteen sixty eight, my dad,

231
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:13.279
<v Speaker 6>he was the president of Davis County Fishing Wildlife, and

232
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:18.840
<v Speaker 6>he and a cousin they were raising a lot of birds.

233
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:22.759
<v Speaker 6>They mostly quail to get the quill population up in

234
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:27.279
<v Speaker 6>Davis County, and they also raised approximately ten other types

235
00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:32.200
<v Speaker 6>of birds, pheasant, peacock, chuckers, just a lot of different

236
00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:35.360
<v Speaker 6>wild birds, and they were releasing them into the wildlife

237
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:40.399
<v Speaker 6>and we had put in the summer of sixty nine

238
00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:44.799
<v Speaker 6>after these birds. It took a while to get the

239
00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:48.039
<v Speaker 6>cages built, but we started probably in about sixty eight,

240
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:50.759
<v Speaker 6>and part of my job would we go out and

241
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:53.879
<v Speaker 6>feed them, make sure the water was good shape, help

242
00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:59.039
<v Speaker 6>build the pens, things like that. And by nineteen sixty nine,

243
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:04.080
<v Speaker 6>was getting out the sixth grade. And it was June

244
00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:07.519
<v Speaker 6>of nineteen sixty nine and I went out to the

245
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:11.759
<v Speaker 6>back porch. It was just turning dark, and I start

246
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:15.840
<v Speaker 6>burning my school papers and I'm out there, well, the

247
00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:20.080
<v Speaker 6>sun had just went down, I mean, burning those papers

248
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:24.080
<v Speaker 6>was even showing its light more so because it had

249
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:27.360
<v Speaker 6>just turned dark. I was just having fun just sitting there,

250
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:30.559
<v Speaker 6>ripping page after page, just sitting there burning them all.

251
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:35.159
<v Speaker 6>This year's gone. School's out. Boy, couldn't be any better.

252
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:38.559
<v Speaker 6>And by that time I start hearing the birds were

253
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:41.759
<v Speaker 6>start flying from one end together, just making a little noise.

254
00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:46.120
<v Speaker 6>And it came to my thought that hey, we just

255
00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:50.240
<v Speaker 6>put the electricity out to the barn and shoot. I

256
00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:52.759
<v Speaker 6>turned the lights on just ten feet from where I

257
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:55.759
<v Speaker 6>was sitting on that back porch. I went up to

258
00:11:55.799 --> 00:11:58.360
<v Speaker 6>hit that switch and I was able to see. Well,

259
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:00.960
<v Speaker 6>when I looked out there, I'll tell you what it

260
00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:04.039
<v Speaker 6>just I couldn't believe what I was seeing. The cage

261
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:09.480
<v Speaker 6>was being picked up about twelve inches to eighteen inches

262
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:13.440
<v Speaker 6>on each side, just twisting it bam bam, just going

263
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.600
<v Speaker 6>to each side, and the birds were flying from one

264
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:19.720
<v Speaker 6>end and right back to the other. And I yelled

265
00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:22.559
<v Speaker 6>out there and I said, who's out there? What's out there?

266
00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:26.519
<v Speaker 6>And it all stopped. The pin just stopped. There wasn't

267
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:29.639
<v Speaker 6>any movement going up and down. Well, the birds kept flying,

268
00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:33.879
<v Speaker 6>and the birds were just all the birds around were

269
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:37.399
<v Speaker 6>just making all types of noise, and you could We

270
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.559
<v Speaker 6>had a cattle barn or very farm next to us.

271
00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:45.919
<v Speaker 6>The cows they were bawling, and I thought, who's out

272
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:49.559
<v Speaker 6>there again? And about this time I see something real

273
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:52.960
<v Speaker 6>large just walking through the dark, and I could tell

274
00:12:53.000 --> 00:12:55.279
<v Speaker 6>that it was very large, and it had that gate

275
00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:59.759
<v Speaker 6>just like a big foot gate would walk and I thought, man,

276
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:03.000
<v Speaker 6>this is this is freaking me out. I hope what

277
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:07.159
<v Speaker 6>in that hat? And I'm thinking, maybe this is the

278
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:10.960
<v Speaker 6>hermit that everybody's been talking about, this wild haired man.

279
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:14.840
<v Speaker 6>And I was just I was scared. I went inside,

280
00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 6>I told people, told the parents, and I didn't hear

281
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:24.000
<v Speaker 6>anymore that night. Next morning went out there and there

282
00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:27.960
<v Speaker 6>were over five hundred birds dead in that cage and

283
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.440
<v Speaker 6>blood was everwhere where they had dripped. There were a

284
00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:34.960
<v Speaker 6>few birds still kicking in the cage, but I'd say

285
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:37.879
<v Speaker 6>ninety five better than ninety five percent of the birds

286
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:42.399
<v Speaker 6>were dead. And uh I just I told Dad what

287
00:13:42.440 --> 00:13:44.799
<v Speaker 6>I had seen. And I said, Dad, I don't know

288
00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:47.480
<v Speaker 6>what what was out there? What it was? I said,

289
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:50.759
<v Speaker 6>it wasn't a purse, It was not a person. Dad.

290
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.960
<v Speaker 6>I said, if it was, it was somebody huge. And

291
00:13:55.000 --> 00:13:56.600
<v Speaker 6>he said, well, we'll have to keep an eye on

292
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:58.879
<v Speaker 6>things around here. And he said, I hope this doesn't

293
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:05.399
<v Speaker 6>happen again. And so probably about a month goes by,

294
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:11.080
<v Speaker 6>and uh I was worshing laundry, and uh I went

295
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:14.440
<v Speaker 6>to get some laundry out, and laundry was on one

296
00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:17.440
<v Speaker 6>side of the wall, and where our clothes dryer was,

297
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:21.799
<v Speaker 6>there was a window. And as I turned with those

298
00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:24.879
<v Speaker 6>closed to open up the dryer, I looked right into

299
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:28.120
<v Speaker 6>the window and this thing's looking in the window right

300
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:30.679
<v Speaker 6>at me, and I old, crap. I threw the clothes

301
00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:33.519
<v Speaker 6>up in there. My sister's on the phone. The door

302
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.879
<v Speaker 6>was opened for the utility room there and she was

303
00:14:36.919 --> 00:14:39.519
<v Speaker 6>sitting up on the bar. She threw the phone up

304
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:41.559
<v Speaker 6>in the air and she said, I saw it. I

305
00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:44.720
<v Speaker 6>saw it too. Let's get in the bathroom and I said,

306
00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:47.720
<v Speaker 6>we sat in there for an hour in that bathroom.

307
00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:50.360
<v Speaker 6>I said, Pat, what it is this? It is this

308
00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:53.320
<v Speaker 6>the hermit? And she said, I think it's the hermit.

309
00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:56.639
<v Speaker 6>She said that thing was harry and big and ugly,

310
00:14:57.039 --> 00:14:59.960
<v Speaker 6>and I said, you're telling me. I said, I know, sister.

311
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:02.480
<v Speaker 6>I said, I saw a food. I said, it's scared

312
00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:04.600
<v Speaker 6>the heck out of us. And she said, you better

313
00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:05.480
<v Speaker 6>blave out stair.

346
00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:54.440
<v Speaker 6>Well nineteen seventy counts around and get out of school

347
00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:57.159
<v Speaker 6>and my older brother and a friend of myself we

348
00:16:58.000 --> 00:17:02.120
<v Speaker 6>were staying at a was a single man. Uh. He

349
00:17:02.200 --> 00:17:04.079
<v Speaker 6>worked a lot of people back there. He was a

350
00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:08.000
<v Speaker 6>big old guy, Jim Stout was his name, and that sucker,

351
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:09.759
<v Speaker 6>I'll tell you what he knew how to shoot a

352
00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:14.880
<v Speaker 6>higher power rifle. He had mooseheads hanging in his machine shop.

353
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:19.119
<v Speaker 6>He had black bear roads. He was very, very much

354
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:24.720
<v Speaker 6>of a naturalist. Uh. He was just a good old guy.

355
00:17:25.640 --> 00:17:31.359
<v Speaker 6>And uh he had an old home place. And we

356
00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:34.759
<v Speaker 6>were back there watching his house in that machine shop.

357
00:17:35.440 --> 00:17:39.359
<v Speaker 6>Mostly it was this friend of ours that was the

358
00:17:39.400 --> 00:17:42.440
<v Speaker 6>one actually that had been assigned to watch it. That

359
00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:44.839
<v Speaker 6>me and my brother. We went back there that night

360
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:48.480
<v Speaker 6>just to stay with him for one night while mister

361
00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:52.240
<v Speaker 6>Stout was gone to Alaska. And on that night we

362
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:55.359
<v Speaker 6>started getting hungry. It was about old It was a

363
00:17:55.359 --> 00:17:59.519
<v Speaker 6>couple of hours after midnight, and it was hot and humid.

364
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:04.640
<v Speaker 6>That night it was very foggy, and the moon was

365
00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:08.359
<v Speaker 6>out just as bright as it could be. And we thought, well,

366
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:10.359
<v Speaker 6>we'll go up to the house, which was about a

367
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:13.960
<v Speaker 6>mile away, and we'll have our sister to hand some

368
00:18:14.079 --> 00:18:19.759
<v Speaker 6>food out to us. And so we had a dad's

369
00:18:20.039 --> 00:18:23.359
<v Speaker 6>Ford pickup. It was a Ford Falcon and they sat

370
00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:26.759
<v Speaker 6>low to the ground. It was a white just a

371
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:31.079
<v Speaker 6>white standard Ford Falcon pickup and the three of us,

372
00:18:31.079 --> 00:18:33.440
<v Speaker 6>we hopped in the cab. I sat right in the middle,

373
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:38.480
<v Speaker 6>and we pulled over. And as we pulled onto the

374
00:18:38.680 --> 00:18:42.319
<v Speaker 6>uh where the machine shop was, you drove about al

375
00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:45.319
<v Speaker 6>about a half mile down the dirt road, and it

376
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:48.240
<v Speaker 6>was back in a wooded area. He had peacocks back

377
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:52.119
<v Speaker 6>there as well, and then you'd make a right turn

378
00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:55.920
<v Speaker 6>you'd be on asphalt for maybe a half mile. And

379
00:18:56.279 --> 00:18:58.920
<v Speaker 6>where our little farm was with seven acres, and we

380
00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:01.799
<v Speaker 6>had a lake or a small little pond. We had

381
00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:05.200
<v Speaker 6>the barn. We had those birds, bird pins, things like that.

382
00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:11.519
<v Speaker 6>And as we came to that turn on this it

383
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:14.599
<v Speaker 6>was kind of in a d shape. As we made

384
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:18.039
<v Speaker 6>that real sharp turn to come in behind the house

385
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:23.440
<v Speaker 6>where this gravel road was right there at that turn,

386
00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:25.880
<v Speaker 6>I asked him, I said, guys, I said, did y'all

387
00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:29.400
<v Speaker 6>see somebody walking? I said, I sure think I saw

388
00:19:29.519 --> 00:19:33.119
<v Speaker 6>something that fog. I saw somebody walk in this way.

389
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:36.599
<v Speaker 6>And they said, no, we didn't see anything. Well, he

390
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:38.720
<v Speaker 6>pulls truck up in there and he backed it in

391
00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:43.039
<v Speaker 6>and I go to get out with him, and he said, well, no, no,

392
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:45.839
<v Speaker 6>he said, you stay here. Well, my older brother, he's

393
00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:48.680
<v Speaker 6>five years older than I am. And I said, Bill,

394
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:49.759
<v Speaker 6>can I go with you?

395
00:19:49.799 --> 00:19:50.160
<v Speaker 3>Guys?

396
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:52.559
<v Speaker 6>I said, I'd feel better going with you. He said,

397
00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:55.880
<v Speaker 6>you stay here. He said, if anybody comes you just

398
00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:59.839
<v Speaker 6>blow the horn and we'll be here real quick. He said,

399
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:02.440
<v Speaker 6>locked the doors. He said, nobody's going to get you.

400
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:05.920
<v Speaker 6>You're safe. I said, all right, all right, I'll do

401
00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:08.480
<v Speaker 6>what you're telling me. Well, I sat there and I

402
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:11.440
<v Speaker 6>watched them walk off, and I thought, I'm going to

403
00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:14.720
<v Speaker 6>look back again. I know I saw somebody walking. And

404
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:17.960
<v Speaker 6>I turned my head to the left of me. I'm

405
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:20.920
<v Speaker 6>sitting there right at the wheel, and I looked back

406
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:25.680
<v Speaker 6>and it's probably several thousand feet and I didn't see

407
00:20:25.680 --> 00:20:29.640
<v Speaker 6>anything at first, and I thought, well, maybe I didn't

408
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:33.759
<v Speaker 6>see anything. And I sat there just a hair like

409
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.160
<v Speaker 6>a few seconds. Morning I think I'm going to look again.

410
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:38.720
<v Speaker 6>I know I saw something. And when I looked the

411
00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:41.799
<v Speaker 6>second time, yep, I see the movement. I said, I

412
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:45.839
<v Speaker 6>knew it. I knew it. I saw somebody walking. I said, okay,

413
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:49.880
<v Speaker 6>hang tight here, Jack, I said, look you can. You

414
00:20:49.920 --> 00:20:53.400
<v Speaker 6>can see the movement. If whoever's coming, you're going to

415
00:20:53.480 --> 00:20:55.680
<v Speaker 6>know who they are. It's probably going to be a neighbor.

416
00:20:55.720 --> 00:20:59.799
<v Speaker 6>I couldn't hunting. You'll know who they are. You've always

417
00:20:59.839 --> 00:21:02.799
<v Speaker 6>had And I thought, okay, I've gave myself this good

418
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:06.240
<v Speaker 6>pep talk. I'm calm, I'm gonna wait. If they go

419
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:09.000
<v Speaker 6>on the asphalt, I surely don't have anything to worry about.

420
00:21:09.319 --> 00:21:11.000
<v Speaker 6>If they come this way, I'm going to know who

421
00:21:11.079 --> 00:21:13.799
<v Speaker 6>they are. So that was my plan, That's what I

422
00:21:13.839 --> 00:21:17.960
<v Speaker 6>was telling myself. And I also had that assurance that

423
00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:20.160
<v Speaker 6>if they did come and I didn't know them, I

424
00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:22.160
<v Speaker 6>could blow that horn. My brother was going to come.

425
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:25.960
<v Speaker 6>So I just sat tied. Well, it kept coming closer,

426
00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:29.839
<v Speaker 6>and it would go in and out of the fall. Well,

427
00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:33.359
<v Speaker 6>it ended up coming onto the gravel part as it did.

428
00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:36.640
<v Speaker 6>I sat there, Oh, it's come in my direction. I

429
00:21:36.759 --> 00:21:38.559
<v Speaker 6>really have to be on the ball now. Now I'm

430
00:21:38.599 --> 00:21:41.319
<v Speaker 6>going just I was already locked in, but now it's

431
00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:45.960
<v Speaker 6>extra extra. You know, looking to see all the details

432
00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:48.440
<v Speaker 6>you can find jack and just keep your eye on

433
00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:52.480
<v Speaker 6>this thing. Well, I just kept looking and it gets up.

434
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:55.480
<v Speaker 6>I smelled this real strong odor, and it smelt like

435
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:59.160
<v Speaker 6>a strong or stronger than a stunt smell, but it

436
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:05.759
<v Speaker 6>also smell like a more of a zoo older like oh,

437
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:11.440
<v Speaker 6>kind of the wet dog and just like feces from animals,

438
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:15.039
<v Speaker 6>and just kind of what a zoo would like if

439
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:19.119
<v Speaker 6>you're down in the zoo where the elephants are, lions

440
00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:22.559
<v Speaker 6>and tigers and that type of thing, it would be

441
00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:25.119
<v Speaker 6>kind of that that type of smell. But it was

442
00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:28.559
<v Speaker 6>a lot stronger, maybe two to three times stronger than that.

443
00:22:28.920 --> 00:22:34.920
<v Speaker 6>I'd say every bit of three times stronger. And I thought, okay,

444
00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:39.640
<v Speaker 6>I smell that smell, and I wonder what this is.

445
00:22:39.960 --> 00:22:42.680
<v Speaker 6>I mean, I'm already starting to try to process that part.

446
00:22:43.279 --> 00:22:45.680
<v Speaker 6>And a boy this time. I look up and, like

447
00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:49.279
<v Speaker 6>I say, the moon is so bright and it gets

448
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:52.880
<v Speaker 6>about twelve feet from the truck, and I thought, this

449
00:22:53.400 --> 00:22:57.599
<v Speaker 6>is not a person. Uh, there's no clothes on this thing.

450
00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:01.920
<v Speaker 6>And my god, I mean, if I'm looking, this thing's

451
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:04.400
<v Speaker 6>like seven and a half meet feet tall and the

452
00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:07.319
<v Speaker 6>shoulders are three foot wide. This is the hairy man.

453
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:10.680
<v Speaker 6>What in the heck is going on? And I thought

454
00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:12.480
<v Speaker 6>it's time to put this horn on. As soon as

455
00:23:12.519 --> 00:23:15.640
<v Speaker 6>I put the horn on, it put its hands up

456
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:22.119
<v Speaker 6>on its ears and it just roll and I thought,

457
00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:25.000
<v Speaker 6>let off the horn this thing. I don't want to

458
00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:30.559
<v Speaker 6>make it all ticked off and aggravate it and I

459
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:34.680
<v Speaker 6>start going down into the floorboard of the truck. But

460
00:23:34.960 --> 00:23:39.559
<v Speaker 6>right as I was looking still at the at it,

461
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:42.359
<v Speaker 6>it went down with its hands and it scraped the

462
00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:45.839
<v Speaker 6>gravel about three to four times each side, and it

463
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:49.039
<v Speaker 6>stood back up. And by that time I saw it

464
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:53.279
<v Speaker 6>doing the gravel, and I was down low towards the floorboard,

465
00:23:54.000 --> 00:23:57.160
<v Speaker 6>kind of up crunched up underneath of the steering wheel,

466
00:23:58.119 --> 00:24:00.799
<v Speaker 6>and the whole truck starts shaking, and I thought, what

467
00:24:01.200 --> 00:24:03.759
<v Speaker 6>in the world this thing shaking the truck. Isn't in

468
00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:06.640
<v Speaker 6>the truck? Is it just shaking the truck? Well, I

469
00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:08.839
<v Speaker 6>looked up in the back window and I said, it's

470
00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:11.680
<v Speaker 6>in the truck. I see it's hairy legs. And I said,

471
00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:15.400
<v Speaker 6>what in the world. And then the next thing wham

472
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:18.440
<v Speaker 6>right up over the windshield. I mean, it just made

473
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:22.119
<v Speaker 6>the loudest pop. And I saw his arm on the

474
00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:27.920
<v Speaker 6>passenger side, his hand as far as like a large man,

475
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:32.039
<v Speaker 6>his hands were I would say, probably an inch and

476
00:24:32.079 --> 00:24:35.880
<v Speaker 6>a half to two inches longer than that. And I'm thinking,

477
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:40.279
<v Speaker 6>what are you? What is this? It's a black hand.

478
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:45.279
<v Speaker 6>I could see the hair underneath the hair, I could

479
00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:50.359
<v Speaker 6>see perspiration, and the muscle in the arm on the

480
00:24:50.440 --> 00:24:53.880
<v Speaker 6>forearm stood up about an inch and a quarter inch

481
00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:57.680
<v Speaker 6>and a half. His arm was about three times the

482
00:24:57.720 --> 00:25:00.640
<v Speaker 6>size of what my dad's arm was. And he was

483
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:05.559
<v Speaker 6>six foot three, uh, probably two sixty five two seventy

484
00:25:05.599 --> 00:25:07.839
<v Speaker 6>five at the time. I mean, so he was a

485
00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.279
<v Speaker 6>big guy. And I'm thinking that whatever this thing is,

486
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:16.119
<v Speaker 6>it's it's like a whopper compared to my dad. And

487
00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:20.720
<v Speaker 6>the hand. I just I looked that hand so much.

488
00:25:20.799 --> 00:25:24.640
<v Speaker 6>And I would say, on the hand alone, I probably

489
00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:27.960
<v Speaker 6>had a good thirty seconds look up and down the arm,

490
00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:33.000
<v Speaker 6>and uh, at that time, it peeped around to the

491
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:36.519
<v Speaker 6>side of the truck or to the pass our driver's

492
00:25:36.759 --> 00:25:39.839
<v Speaker 6>side of the window and looked in at me, and

493
00:25:39.880 --> 00:25:43.000
<v Speaker 6>then it pulled its head back real quick, and I thought,

494
00:25:43.359 --> 00:25:45.160
<v Speaker 6>are you playing pete pie with me? What are you?

495
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:48.160
<v Speaker 6>What are you doing here? Man? And then his arm

496
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:50.599
<v Speaker 6>kind of slid off the window of the front window,

497
00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:52.799
<v Speaker 6>and he straightened his head up and he came back

498
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:55.200
<v Speaker 6>in a second time to look at me, and he

499
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:59.119
<v Speaker 6>just he was still, and he was we just we

500
00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:02.759
<v Speaker 6>just locked eyes. We were like within eighteen inches to

501
00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:07.240
<v Speaker 6>two feet looking at each other, and the moon was

502
00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:10.559
<v Speaker 6>shining so bright on him. I could see the details

503
00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:14.039
<v Speaker 6>that he had small ears, he had the cone head.

504
00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:17.680
<v Speaker 6>I looked at his eyes and I thought, are you

505
00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:21.680
<v Speaker 6>a caveman? Are you an animal? Are your mix of him?

506
00:26:21.960 --> 00:26:25.759
<v Speaker 6>You know you? It just blew him away. And I

507
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:29.000
<v Speaker 6>was watching. He had the flat nose, his skin was

508
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:34.519
<v Speaker 6>like leather, and the dark dark hair. His eyes just

509
00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:40.279
<v Speaker 6>I don't know, his eyes were wild looking. They were

510
00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:46.440
<v Speaker 6>kind of all kind of a yellowish brown mix into

511
00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:50.559
<v Speaker 6>the eye and had the big lips. And I start

512
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:55.440
<v Speaker 6>noticing his mouth was starting and his nose was starting

513
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:58.880
<v Speaker 6>to kind of wrinkle up some. It was like he

514
00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:03.640
<v Speaker 6>was sniffing me out. And all this happened from the

515
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:07.240
<v Speaker 6>facial look, I would say it was probably right at

516
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:13.759
<v Speaker 6>forty seconds long, maybe forty five seconds. And after it

517
00:27:13.839 --> 00:27:17.759
<v Speaker 6>did that kind of the sniff, then he opened his

518
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:21.119
<v Speaker 6>mouth up real quick, and his it just blew me

519
00:27:21.160 --> 00:27:24.119
<v Speaker 6>away because his mouth when he opened it, I wasn't

520
00:27:24.119 --> 00:27:27.160
<v Speaker 6>expecting a mouth to open up this wide, and I

521
00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:29.960
<v Speaker 6>could see cane I and tith and salava, and it

522
00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:34.000
<v Speaker 6>just at that time, as soon as it just went,

523
00:27:35.279 --> 00:27:37.920
<v Speaker 6>it kind of did a hiss at me, kind of

524
00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:42.720
<v Speaker 6>like and uh, it jumped right out and it went

525
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:46.240
<v Speaker 6>right into the cornfield. And about that time my brother

526
00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:49.240
<v Speaker 6>showed up and he said, what in the world's going on?

527
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:51.759
<v Speaker 6>And I'm out there. I could I was stuttering. I

528
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:56.680
<v Speaker 6>couldn't even get my words out, like everybody, you know, trying,

529
00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:59.000
<v Speaker 6>I'm trying to guide them, get me to the house,

530
00:27:59.039 --> 00:28:02.240
<v Speaker 6>you know, pointing, and I was using body language to

531
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:06.240
<v Speaker 6>even communicate with him. I couldn't. It scared me so bad.

532
00:28:06.319 --> 00:28:09.920
<v Speaker 6>I couldn't even talk with him. I was crying by

533
00:28:09.960 --> 00:28:12.279
<v Speaker 6>the time I got up there. My sister she witnessed that,

534
00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:17.039
<v Speaker 6>and I told my dad about it. And the next

535
00:28:17.119 --> 00:28:21.279
<v Speaker 6>morning I ended up staying there at my house. I

536
00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:23.480
<v Speaker 6>didn't want to go back over to that place, so

537
00:28:23.640 --> 00:28:25.640
<v Speaker 6>my sister let me in and I went on in.

538
00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:28.680
<v Speaker 6>It was so late in the night I didn't wake

539
00:28:28.759 --> 00:28:32.279
<v Speaker 6>my parents up, but I told my dad the next day.

540
00:28:32.839 --> 00:28:35.079
<v Speaker 6>I think it was after he got home from work.

541
00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:39.240
<v Speaker 6>It may have been even that morning. I was exhausted,

542
00:28:39.319 --> 00:28:41.480
<v Speaker 6>but I told him. I said, Dad, I said, we

543
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:44.799
<v Speaker 6>need to get the sheriff out here and fingerprints or whatever.

544
00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:49.799
<v Speaker 6>What are you talking about? Now? Come on? And I said, Dad,

545
00:28:49.799 --> 00:28:52.839
<v Speaker 6>it's said truth, I said, And he just kind of

546
00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:54.960
<v Speaker 6>blew it off. And I said. He said, now, I

547
00:28:54.960 --> 00:28:58.279
<v Speaker 6>don't want to hear any more about this, And I said, Dad,

548
00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:01.519
<v Speaker 6>I said, going back even from last year. He said,

549
00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:04.200
<v Speaker 6>I've got my hands full, and I just I can't

550
00:29:04.279 --> 00:29:06.400
<v Speaker 6>right now. I just don't want to hear any more

551
00:29:06.440 --> 00:29:09.039
<v Speaker 6>about it. He said, now, come on, he said, you're

552
00:29:09.079 --> 00:29:13.720
<v Speaker 6>you'll be okay, and uh, I don't. A couple of

553
00:29:13.759 --> 00:29:15.920
<v Speaker 6>weeks later, he looked at me and I kept on

554
00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:18.720
<v Speaker 6>to him, and he said, you did see something, didn't you?

555
00:29:19.400 --> 00:29:21.720
<v Speaker 6>And I said, I've been telling you for two weeks.

556
00:29:21.759 --> 00:29:22.480
<v Speaker 6>I saw something.

557
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:22.920
<v Speaker 3>I said.

558
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:24.720
<v Speaker 6>I was wanting you to get the sheriff out here,

559
00:29:24.799 --> 00:29:28.079
<v Speaker 6>said if we can do fingerprints or hair samples, or

560
00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:32.359
<v Speaker 6>said if there was any footprints or anything. But uh,

561
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:37.759
<v Speaker 6>even after that event, Uh, it was still that same summer,

562
00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:41.960
<v Speaker 6>the guy goes back to that machine shop. And it

563
00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:45.839
<v Speaker 6>was maybe a few weeks later. I don't I don't

564
00:29:45.839 --> 00:29:49.799
<v Speaker 6>believe I told Bobo this part. Uh, but anyway he was.

565
00:29:50.039 --> 00:29:53.240
<v Speaker 6>He gave us a call and it's late at night,

566
00:29:53.640 --> 00:29:58.039
<v Speaker 6>probably right it midnight. He said, uh, Bill, you and

567
00:29:58.079 --> 00:30:01.079
<v Speaker 6>your dad y'all come over here. Bring a gun. He said,

568
00:30:01.119 --> 00:30:06.359
<v Speaker 6>there's something or somebody knocking on mister spout's door. He said,

569
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:10.359
<v Speaker 6>I've got myself blocked in into into the like the bathroom.

570
00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:13.599
<v Speaker 6>He said, whatever it is, it won't answer me. And

571
00:30:13.640 --> 00:30:16.960
<v Speaker 6>he said, it is just beaten on the door real hard.

572
00:30:17.720 --> 00:30:20.480
<v Speaker 6>Well only a mile away. We were there within just

573
00:30:20.559 --> 00:30:24.599
<v Speaker 6>a few minutes. And as we got there, we thought

574
00:30:24.640 --> 00:30:29.200
<v Speaker 6>we saw something shadowed walking away. And we looked up

575
00:30:29.279 --> 00:30:32.759
<v Speaker 6>and whatever it had been there had cracked, put a

576
00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:36.279
<v Speaker 6>good crack in this door. And this was an old

577
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:39.119
<v Speaker 6>one of those old thick doors, like an inch and

578
00:30:39.160 --> 00:30:42.759
<v Speaker 6>a half two inches thick, solid oak door. I mean

579
00:30:43.119 --> 00:30:46.599
<v Speaker 6>it sucker just put a crack right in it. And uh.

580
00:30:47.160 --> 00:30:51.559
<v Speaker 6>That was After that, I hadn't seen anything, heard anything

581
00:30:51.640 --> 00:30:55.200
<v Speaker 6>from anybody other than in Davis County. There's been people,

582
00:30:55.720 --> 00:30:58.920
<v Speaker 6>I think out on hearing one for a Fairview drive.

583
00:30:59.480 --> 00:31:02.599
<v Speaker 6>Some people said that they had a sighting several years back.

584
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:07.160
<v Speaker 6>I went to some of the libraries where Charlie Raymond

585
00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:12.519
<v Speaker 6>and Don Neil have been and I started that probably

586
00:31:12.559 --> 00:31:18.079
<v Speaker 6>about maybe eight to ten years ago. I started going

587
00:31:18.119 --> 00:31:20.559
<v Speaker 6>to some of the libraries. A guy told me about it.

588
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:22.759
<v Speaker 6>I met him up there. My sister told me too,

589
00:31:22.920 --> 00:31:27.359
<v Speaker 6>so we all went and we start learning more about it.

590
00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:31.200
<v Speaker 6>Than the foot prints, and not only that, what other

591
00:31:31.279 --> 00:31:34.400
<v Speaker 6>people had seen. And it just really started blowing me

592
00:31:34.440 --> 00:31:38.680
<v Speaker 6>away when all these hands start raising that. And one guy,

593
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:41.519
<v Speaker 6>he was telling a story. He worked for the city

594
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:45.640
<v Speaker 6>of Winnsboro here in Davis County, and he said down

595
00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:50.440
<v Speaker 6>around Barn Harbor Hills that he saw one and it

596
00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:54.759
<v Speaker 6>was daylight. He said he was at his uncle's barn

597
00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:59.519
<v Speaker 6>and probably back several one hundred feet away from the

598
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:02.200
<v Speaker 6>barn in the field, and he said he saw one

599
00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:04.759
<v Speaker 6>and it had its hand up on the barn door.

600
00:32:05.279 --> 00:32:07.839
<v Speaker 6>He said they just locked eyes on each other, didn't

601
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:10.559
<v Speaker 6>make a move, and he said they looked at each

602
00:32:10.559 --> 00:32:14.839
<v Speaker 6>other for maybe three to five minutes. And he said

603
00:32:14.920 --> 00:32:18.200
<v Speaker 6>soon as he made a move, when he made his move,

604
00:32:18.880 --> 00:32:22.839
<v Speaker 6>the sasquash bigfoot took off immediately and it was gone.

605
00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:26.319
<v Speaker 6>He said, ali site just like it just vanished.

606
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:31.519
<v Speaker 3>Stay tuned for more Bigfoot and beyond with Cliff and Bogo.

607
00:32:31.720 --> 00:32:39.960
<v Speaker 3>We'll be right back after these messages, well, a few

608
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:42.440
<v Speaker 3>follow up questions. Have been taking some notes as you've

609
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:45.519
<v Speaker 3>been explaining your story to us. I guess one of

610
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:47.519
<v Speaker 3>the first things I'd like to ask you about it,

611
00:32:47.519 --> 00:32:50.400
<v Speaker 3>and I don't think you mentioned this, And again I'm

612
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:52.119
<v Speaker 3>trying to keep my notes straight and I'm trying to

613
00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:54.920
<v Speaker 3>listen closely, so I don't ask you a question about

614
00:32:54.920 --> 00:32:57.319
<v Speaker 3>something you already explained. So but forgive me if I do.

615
00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:00.319
<v Speaker 3>As far as far as like the local ledge of

616
00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:02.559
<v Speaker 3>the Hermit's goes, is that something that you've always just

617
00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:05.640
<v Speaker 3>grown up with and everybody in the local area knew

618
00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:08.279
<v Speaker 3>about the hermit And that's just the way it was.

619
00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:13.839
<v Speaker 6>No, it was just a few years prior to my sighting.

620
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:18.240
<v Speaker 6>It was probably the hermit started in about nineteen sixty

621
00:33:18.480 --> 00:33:22.359
<v Speaker 6>seven right and through there, and the legend was that

622
00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:25.720
<v Speaker 6>was coming from Barn Harbor Hills, which is right outside

623
00:33:26.519 --> 00:33:29.559
<v Speaker 6>of Odensboro. I mean, it's within just a few miles.

624
00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:33.359
<v Speaker 6>And they used to mind co in that area, and

625
00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:37.000
<v Speaker 6>so I think there's some old abandoned mines left in

626
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:43.240
<v Speaker 6>that area. But people down in the Stanley area, Sargo,

627
00:33:43.440 --> 00:33:46.359
<v Speaker 6>West Louisville, just a bunch of people on the mostly

628
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:49.839
<v Speaker 6>on the west side of Weddinsboro. It was in the community.

629
00:33:49.880 --> 00:33:52.519
<v Speaker 6>You would drive the school bus and you'd hear people, oh,

630
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:56.319
<v Speaker 6>well did you hear about the hermit? And no, man,

631
00:33:56.400 --> 00:33:59.680
<v Speaker 6>what's new about the Hermit so and sold down in

632
00:33:59.680 --> 00:34:03.000
<v Speaker 6>the Sandy saw it. They said that they were out

633
00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:06.279
<v Speaker 6>slopping the hogs and this thing came up close to

634
00:34:06.359 --> 00:34:10.119
<v Speaker 6>them and it was gone. And you know, then somebody

635
00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:12.599
<v Speaker 6>else would say that they saw them, and everybody just

636
00:34:12.639 --> 00:34:15.679
<v Speaker 6>had their ear open. You know, hermit. You know, as

637
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:17.960
<v Speaker 6>soon as you heard hermit, if you were on a

638
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:20.519
<v Speaker 6>school bus or something, oh, tell me about it, tell

639
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:23.519
<v Speaker 6>me your story. And so that's kind of how it went.

640
00:34:23.880 --> 00:34:26.320
<v Speaker 6>But it kind of died off after a few years.

641
00:34:26.360 --> 00:34:30.519
<v Speaker 6>Probably it wasn't too many years after my my sighting.

642
00:34:31.119 --> 00:34:34.480
<v Speaker 6>It kind of died down, but there have been some

643
00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:38.559
<v Speaker 6>activity in Wednesboro and it was even published in our

644
00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:41.840
<v Speaker 6>local paper of people having sightings.

645
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:45.239
<v Speaker 3>Okay, by the way, thank you for saying slopping the hogs.

646
00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:47.639
<v Speaker 3>I've never heard that phrase in my life. That's got

647
00:34:47.800 --> 00:34:50.280
<v Speaker 3>a city guy, you know, I've never heard that that

648
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:52.840
<v Speaker 3>those words put together. That was pretty cool. Thank you.

649
00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:54.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, I've slapped dogs.

650
00:34:54.639 --> 00:34:58.880
<v Speaker 7>You saw dogs in one county over from where Jack is,

651
00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:01.960
<v Speaker 7>over in Union County, but other times in my life

652
00:35:01.960 --> 00:35:04.000
<v Speaker 7>in North Georgia too. But yeah, slapping the hogs is

653
00:35:04.280 --> 00:35:06.360
<v Speaker 7>a common farm nomenclature.

654
00:35:06.920 --> 00:35:09.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, well, I did not grow up on farms.

655
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:14.280
<v Speaker 3>But okay, so the hermit wasn't instilled in the community

656
00:35:14.519 --> 00:35:16.360
<v Speaker 3>as you were born, and it's something that carried on.

657
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:19.119
<v Speaker 3>It's something that kind of surfaced for a few five

658
00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:20.960
<v Speaker 3>or ten years and kind of went away.

659
00:35:21.360 --> 00:35:25.119
<v Speaker 6>Right exactly, And it was kind of a penetrated more

660
00:35:25.119 --> 00:35:29.320
<v Speaker 6>on the west side of Winsboro, and they the main

661
00:35:29.599 --> 00:35:33.480
<v Speaker 6>area seemed like was the Barn Harbor Hill area, and

662
00:35:33.519 --> 00:35:36.159
<v Speaker 6>that it would they people were trying to make a

663
00:35:36.239 --> 00:35:40.280
<v Speaker 6>legend that this thing lived or roamed. More sightings were

664
00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:43.679
<v Speaker 6>in that area, but it would roam off into like

665
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:49.440
<v Speaker 6>Sargo maybe five miles away, or West Louisville, ten Stanley

666
00:35:49.559 --> 00:35:53.320
<v Speaker 6>maybe seven or eight. So that's it kind of stayed

667
00:35:53.360 --> 00:35:56.239
<v Speaker 6>in these areas and that's where the sightings would be

668
00:35:56.679 --> 00:35:58.719
<v Speaker 6>that they you know, people kind of just talked but

669
00:36:00.079 --> 00:36:03.719
<v Speaker 6>kind of centralized it. And then over the years, I

670
00:36:03.760 --> 00:36:07.719
<v Speaker 6>mean people in Henderson and uh oh, well, I think

671
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:11.199
<v Speaker 6>what sixty seven was that uh out there in the

672
00:36:11.360 --> 00:36:14.280
<v Speaker 6>Bluff Creek. So I mean it was starting to gain

673
00:36:14.360 --> 00:36:18.199
<v Speaker 6>momentum in my day right right in that time. I mean,

674
00:36:18.639 --> 00:36:23.519
<v Speaker 6>Bigfoot is this uh myself, after I saw it, I

675
00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:26.519
<v Speaker 6>thought this isn't a hermit. This is what they're calling

676
00:36:26.639 --> 00:36:30.840
<v Speaker 6>the bigfoot. And I switched. I switched gears from hermit

677
00:36:30.960 --> 00:36:33.360
<v Speaker 6>to sashquash bigfoot.

678
00:36:34.000 --> 00:36:36.360
<v Speaker 5>Didn't you guys find like handprints on the on the

679
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:37.559
<v Speaker 5>truck like saliva?

680
00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:41.239
<v Speaker 6>And uh, there were. It was on the truck itself.

681
00:36:41.320 --> 00:36:44.480
<v Speaker 6>There was kind of like a kind of how if

682
00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:46.880
<v Speaker 6>you had moisture and you just rubbed it, kind of

683
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:50.280
<v Speaker 6>a smear mark. Yeah, yeah, there was some smear marks

684
00:36:50.320 --> 00:36:50.639
<v Speaker 6>on it.

685
00:36:51.239 --> 00:36:55.199
<v Speaker 4>And about the teeth were the cats top and bottom?

686
00:36:56.280 --> 00:37:00.639
<v Speaker 6>I think what I was picking up, I'm thinking pop

687
00:37:00.679 --> 00:37:01.159
<v Speaker 6>in bottom?

688
00:37:01.679 --> 00:37:05.800
<v Speaker 3>And how far how much further from the surrounding teeth

689
00:37:06.280 --> 00:37:08.199
<v Speaker 3>did the canines protrude?

690
00:37:08.719 --> 00:37:09.880
<v Speaker 6>Okay, how much longer?

691
00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:12.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? How much longer were they than the flat teeth

692
00:37:12.239 --> 00:37:12.719
<v Speaker 3>around them?

693
00:37:13.239 --> 00:37:18.400
<v Speaker 6>I would say maybe an as much as an inch

694
00:37:18.639 --> 00:37:19.960
<v Speaker 6>three quarters to an inch.

695
00:37:20.639 --> 00:37:23.159
<v Speaker 4>Did you see the mouth color instead of the mouth or.

696
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:27.800
<v Speaker 6>Well, the lips a lot of it. Just looking at him,

697
00:37:28.199 --> 00:37:31.480
<v Speaker 6>this thing looked more human than an animal right in

698
00:37:31.519 --> 00:37:34.639
<v Speaker 6>the eyes and the nose. But then when you start

699
00:37:34.679 --> 00:37:37.719
<v Speaker 6>looking up to the side of the head, Hey, it's

700
00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:41.960
<v Speaker 6>got small Its ears were smaller, and it had the

701
00:37:41.960 --> 00:37:47.679
<v Speaker 6>cone head and its shoulders were like three foot across,

702
00:37:48.159 --> 00:37:53.079
<v Speaker 6>and from the I saw the side view, the side

703
00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:57.239
<v Speaker 6>view of its chest was about two feet thick from

704
00:37:57.280 --> 00:38:00.440
<v Speaker 6>the front of the chest to its back. But you

705
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:02.599
<v Speaker 6>have some hair in there too, So even at that

706
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:07.039
<v Speaker 6>you're looking at probably eighteen to twenty inches at least,

707
00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:10.360
<v Speaker 6>may have even been pushing thirty inches. I mean, I

708
00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:14.559
<v Speaker 6>estimated that at the time. Gas And because I had

709
00:38:14.599 --> 00:38:19.440
<v Speaker 6>watched growing up small cattle hogs things like that. The

710
00:38:19.519 --> 00:38:24.320
<v Speaker 6>weight even my dad's size, you know, I'm thinking this

711
00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:28.360
<v Speaker 6>thing was seven hundred and fifty thousand pounds easily, maybe

712
00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:32.440
<v Speaker 6>even more, muscles like you wouldn't believe. I didn't see

713
00:38:32.440 --> 00:38:35.000
<v Speaker 6>any breasts on it either. I think it was a male.

714
00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:37.079
<v Speaker 3>So it seems like a lot of this stuff was

715
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:39.199
<v Speaker 3>happening on the on the west side of Owensboro, like

716
00:38:39.199 --> 00:38:41.800
<v Speaker 3>you're saying, right along the Ohio River. And I'm kind

717
00:38:41.800 --> 00:38:44.480
<v Speaker 3>of looking at the maps right now, the satellite pictures

718
00:38:44.480 --> 00:38:48.320
<v Speaker 3>of the area, and there are pockets of woods and whatnot.

719
00:38:48.440 --> 00:38:51.880
<v Speaker 3>But looking back to that time and comparing it to now,

720
00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:55.559
<v Speaker 3>was it significantly more forested at the time. Has there

721
00:38:55.599 --> 00:38:57.159
<v Speaker 3>been a lot of tree clearing and stuff in the

722
00:38:57.199 --> 00:38:59.039
<v Speaker 3>last you know, whatever fifty.

723
00:38:58.840 --> 00:39:03.400
<v Speaker 6>Years, the theres have been some trees, but there were

724
00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:06.079
<v Speaker 6>a lot of flat farm fields too. And actually where

725
00:39:06.119 --> 00:39:08.599
<v Speaker 6>I was at, I was about a mile away from

726
00:39:08.719 --> 00:39:13.480
<v Speaker 6>Panther Creek, so all that was wooded and I've as

727
00:39:13.480 --> 00:39:16.800
<v Speaker 6>a kid growing up out there, I had shoot riding

728
00:39:16.880 --> 00:39:19.800
<v Speaker 6>bicycles and with friends. I mean, we had years and

729
00:39:19.920 --> 00:39:24.320
<v Speaker 6>years going through all the woods and there's a lot

730
00:39:24.360 --> 00:39:26.480
<v Speaker 6>of wooded area in through that area.

731
00:39:27.119 --> 00:39:31.960
<v Speaker 3>Now we're looking so southwest of Owensboro, and there's a

732
00:39:32.000 --> 00:39:34.639
<v Speaker 3>big patch of trees down there. So that area has

733
00:39:34.679 --> 00:39:38.360
<v Speaker 3>not significantly changed, or not dramatically changed, I should say,

734
00:39:38.599 --> 00:39:39.360
<v Speaker 3>I don't think so.

735
00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:42.960
<v Speaker 7>For context, because this is where Emily's family's from, so

736
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:45.840
<v Speaker 7>we're up there quite often. And you know, ever since

737
00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:47.880
<v Speaker 7>we when we first started dating and I was going

738
00:39:47.960 --> 00:39:49.320
<v Speaker 7>up there, you know, I'd look into a lot of

739
00:39:49.360 --> 00:39:52.320
<v Speaker 7>older reports from there throughout the early to mid twentieth

740
00:39:52.360 --> 00:39:55.679
<v Speaker 7>century and then up really into like the nineties, and

741
00:39:55.719 --> 00:39:58.159
<v Speaker 7>a lot of them reminded me they tend to be

742
00:39:58.199 --> 00:40:01.159
<v Speaker 7>like lone male individuals, and they sort of reminded me,

743
00:40:01.239 --> 00:40:03.400
<v Speaker 7>especially driving to a lot of those spots of the

744
00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:07.719
<v Speaker 7>situation in and around Concho Concho, Oklahoma, where the Casino

745
00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:11.679
<v Speaker 7>footage was taken. We have these kind of heavily forested

746
00:40:11.719 --> 00:40:15.000
<v Speaker 7>creeks and then one major river system that leads to

747
00:40:15.519 --> 00:40:17.760
<v Speaker 7>larger areas of forest because you know, you could follow

748
00:40:18.000 --> 00:40:20.800
<v Speaker 7>the forested waterway of the Ohio to and from the

749
00:40:20.840 --> 00:40:23.519
<v Speaker 7>Shaddie National Forest to the Hoosier National Forest and some

750
00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:25.840
<v Speaker 7>of these other areas, and they tended to be in

751
00:40:25.880 --> 00:40:29.320
<v Speaker 7>that same kind of context of almost like a transient

752
00:40:29.440 --> 00:40:31.400
<v Speaker 7>male or something of that sort, just like a lone

753
00:40:31.440 --> 00:40:33.960
<v Speaker 7>individual that's around for a little bit of time and

754
00:40:33.960 --> 00:40:37.000
<v Speaker 7>then it moves on. And so we've seen similar cases

755
00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:40.360
<v Speaker 7>in other parts of the country that via a satellite

756
00:40:40.360 --> 00:40:43.280
<v Speaker 7>image or something, it doesn't look like the Pacific Northwest

757
00:40:43.320 --> 00:40:45.800
<v Speaker 7>or southern Appalachia, but you get boots on the ground

758
00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:47.760
<v Speaker 7>there and you're like, oh, yeah, you could sneak a

759
00:40:47.840 --> 00:40:49.239
<v Speaker 7>platoon of people through here.

760
00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:54.159
<v Speaker 6>The actor Rob Low I believe I'm saying his name right.

761
00:40:54.280 --> 00:40:57.800
<v Speaker 6>Him and his sons were in the Olzark Mountains quite

762
00:40:57.840 --> 00:40:59.840
<v Speaker 6>a few years back, and they claim that they had

763
00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:04.159
<v Speaker 6>a fighting with it. And I've been in the Ozark Mountains,

764
00:41:04.519 --> 00:41:08.079
<v Speaker 6>but I was probably fifteen sixteen years old. I saw

765
00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:11.159
<v Speaker 6>Current River. I went to the Current River into the

766
00:41:11.159 --> 00:41:15.039
<v Speaker 6>hot Springs and just quite a few areas into there,

767
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:19.239
<v Speaker 6>and it was like, man, that is some rugged terrain,

768
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:22.519
<v Speaker 6>you know if you want to hide, and that it's

769
00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:24.920
<v Speaker 6>no different than over here. Not too far from where

770
00:41:24.960 --> 00:41:29.920
<v Speaker 6>we're at, you have the Hoosier National Forest and it's

771
00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:32.760
<v Speaker 6>almost from Owensboro to Louisville nothing but trees.

772
00:41:34.159 --> 00:41:36.519
<v Speaker 7>And for a historical context to cliffand but but do

773
00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:39.639
<v Speaker 7>you guys remember the Spotsville Monster and all those stories.

774
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:40.840
<v Speaker 3>That's very close.

775
00:41:41.119 --> 00:41:43.800
<v Speaker 7>It's close in space and time exactly.

776
00:41:45.599 --> 00:41:50.239
<v Speaker 6>I was the Spotsville Monster. That's the same thing, and

777
00:41:50.639 --> 00:41:53.880
<v Speaker 6>that's probably no more than twenty five miles from where

778
00:41:53.880 --> 00:41:58.000
<v Speaker 6>I lived. It makes me feel good to open up

779
00:41:58.039 --> 00:42:03.360
<v Speaker 6>about it. After seeing one numerous times, and my brother

780
00:42:03.480 --> 00:42:06.960
<v Speaker 6>saw it. We had a locust tree. I talked to

781
00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:13.280
<v Speaker 6>my brother. He moved away quite some probably almost thirty

782
00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:18.159
<v Speaker 6>five let's see here, it's been probably thirty five years ago,

783
00:42:18.360 --> 00:42:23.679
<v Speaker 6>my Mike, my brother moved to Wilmington, North Carolina. But anyway,

784
00:42:23.679 --> 00:42:25.880
<v Speaker 6>as we start getting into some of this, just a

785
00:42:25.920 --> 00:42:28.519
<v Speaker 6>few years ago I brought it up and I said, Mike,

786
00:42:29.280 --> 00:42:31.920
<v Speaker 6>did you ever have anything with a bigfoot or the

787
00:42:31.920 --> 00:42:36.119
<v Speaker 6>Harmit about years ago. He said, well, yeah, he said,

788
00:42:36.280 --> 00:42:39.840
<v Speaker 6>you better believe it. He said, he said, I walked

789
00:42:39.920 --> 00:42:42.639
<v Speaker 6>right out there by the lake pond that we had,

790
00:42:42.679 --> 00:42:45.960
<v Speaker 6>and he said, I thought it was my dad or

791
00:42:46.000 --> 00:42:49.039
<v Speaker 6>my older brother trying to pull something over on me.

792
00:42:49.039 --> 00:42:51.679
<v Speaker 6>And I said, well, what happened? He said it was

793
00:42:52.000 --> 00:42:53.880
<v Speaker 6>when I got up close to it, he said, it

794
00:42:53.960 --> 00:42:57.039
<v Speaker 6>wasn't a dad, it wasn't my brother. He said, this

795
00:42:57.119 --> 00:43:00.159
<v Speaker 6>thing was huge. And he explained to me just what

796
00:43:00.199 --> 00:43:02.800
<v Speaker 6>I saw. He said, yep, yep, that's and he said,

797
00:43:02.840 --> 00:43:05.280
<v Speaker 6>I said, what did it do? He said, it just

798
00:43:05.320 --> 00:43:09.480
<v Speaker 6>shoved that big old locust tree right over. And I said, Mike,

799
00:43:09.960 --> 00:43:12.480
<v Speaker 6>because I was the one mowing the yard at the time,

800
00:43:12.559 --> 00:43:16.000
<v Speaker 6>I said, I was wondering how that locust tree got

801
00:43:16.039 --> 00:43:19.800
<v Speaker 6>shoved over like that and uprooted, and it was probably

802
00:43:19.840 --> 00:43:23.000
<v Speaker 6>a locust tree. It was a good twelve inches in

803
00:43:23.360 --> 00:43:26.440
<v Speaker 6>at in diameter. And I said, well, you kind of

804
00:43:26.480 --> 00:43:27.719
<v Speaker 6>answered what I needed. Mike.

805
00:43:28.639 --> 00:43:31.000
<v Speaker 4>You think it's the same one I.

806
00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:33.239
<v Speaker 6>Think it was. And he took off run him and

807
00:43:33.280 --> 00:43:36.360
<v Speaker 6>it was in the same time, same time period.

808
00:43:38.400 --> 00:43:41.800
<v Speaker 3>Stay tuned for more Bigfoot and Beyond with Cliff and Bogo.

809
00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:50.119
<v Speaker 3>We'll be right back after these messages. Well, this one

810
00:43:50.199 --> 00:43:52.440
<v Speaker 3>certainly seemed to like your property a lot. So I

811
00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:54.639
<v Speaker 3>have a couple of questions about the property, if you

812
00:43:54.639 --> 00:43:57.519
<v Speaker 3>don't mind. You just mentioned the pond. You mentioned it

813
00:43:57.519 --> 00:44:00.360
<v Speaker 3>earlier in the conversation as well. We're there fish in

814
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:00.719
<v Speaker 3>the pond.

815
00:44:01.239 --> 00:44:03.400
<v Speaker 6>There were fish in the pond, and matter of fact,

816
00:44:03.480 --> 00:44:09.719
<v Speaker 6>the Kentucky Department of Fish and Game. Dad had it,

817
00:44:09.800 --> 00:44:12.039
<v Speaker 6>he would have it stopped. They would come and put

818
00:44:12.079 --> 00:44:15.639
<v Speaker 6>so many fish in each year to help keep it

819
00:44:16.519 --> 00:44:17.199
<v Speaker 6>stopped up.

820
00:44:17.679 --> 00:44:19.840
<v Speaker 3>Then did you and your brothers fish out of there? Oh?

821
00:44:19.920 --> 00:44:23.719
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yep, yep. We fished out of it. And it

822
00:44:23.800 --> 00:44:26.280
<v Speaker 6>had a lot of pine trees when we moved out

823
00:44:26.320 --> 00:44:29.639
<v Speaker 6>there in nineteen sixty four or sixty three, I guess

824
00:44:29.639 --> 00:44:32.119
<v Speaker 6>it was. I was four years old. It was actually

825
00:44:32.119 --> 00:44:35.599
<v Speaker 6>it was sixty one when we moved out there. Within

826
00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:38.480
<v Speaker 6>the first year or two. At that time, the pond

827
00:44:38.719 --> 00:44:40.880
<v Speaker 6>didn't have any trees on the land. It was just

828
00:44:40.960 --> 00:44:44.880
<v Speaker 6>a seven acres and Dad he got these pine trees

829
00:44:44.920 --> 00:44:48.679
<v Speaker 6>from the government and we start putting pine trees all

830
00:44:49.000 --> 00:44:49.599
<v Speaker 6>out on it.

831
00:44:50.320 --> 00:44:51.239
<v Speaker 4>How big is the pond?

832
00:44:52.039 --> 00:44:55.280
<v Speaker 6>It was probably maybe a half an acre, just a

833
00:44:55.320 --> 00:44:56.039
<v Speaker 6>small pond.

834
00:44:56.480 --> 00:44:58.719
<v Speaker 3>And when you fished there. Did you clean the fish

835
00:44:58.800 --> 00:44:59.800
<v Speaker 3>right on the edge of the pond.

836
00:45:00.360 --> 00:45:04.679
<v Speaker 6>Uh sometimes yeah, we would, yeah, sometimes we would uh

837
00:45:05.559 --> 00:45:09.880
<v Speaker 6>yeah that and there was a spillway, and sometimes in

838
00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:14.559
<v Speaker 6>that spillway it had snapping turtles in it. Uh sometimes

839
00:45:14.599 --> 00:45:17.239
<v Speaker 6>that you'd uh. Well, we had ducks out there on

840
00:45:17.480 --> 00:45:20.960
<v Speaker 6>the place too, and uh sometimes the turtles would get

841
00:45:21.000 --> 00:45:24.360
<v Speaker 6>the ducks or the geese and you'd find them dead

842
00:45:24.400 --> 00:45:28.719
<v Speaker 6>out there. And we had chickens and uh, the peacocks

843
00:45:28.880 --> 00:45:31.760
<v Speaker 6>all they made that loud honk sound. You could hear

844
00:45:31.800 --> 00:45:35.719
<v Speaker 6>them a mile away or two miles away. I always

845
00:45:36.039 --> 00:45:40.480
<v Speaker 6>kind of wondered if the birds. And he had rabbits

846
00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:44.440
<v Speaker 6>and some cattle and horses and all this was on

847
00:45:44.599 --> 00:45:48.039
<v Speaker 6>seven acres and all these different birds. I mean, there

848
00:45:48.039 --> 00:45:51.599
<v Speaker 6>were thousands of birds. We had incubators and we would

849
00:45:51.679 --> 00:45:53.679
<v Speaker 6>raise them and then he'd set them loose.

850
00:45:54.320 --> 00:45:56.559
<v Speaker 3>The chickens and stuff or other kinds of birds as well.

851
00:45:56.599 --> 00:45:59.599
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I know you said peacocks and ducks and chickens.

852
00:45:59.599 --> 00:46:04.239
<v Speaker 6>Chickens, the ducks, cats, dogs just like a few cats,

853
00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:10.400
<v Speaker 6>a few dogs, horses, cattle, and then there was a

854
00:46:10.440 --> 00:46:15.800
<v Speaker 6>dairy farm right next to us, between the house and

855
00:46:16.159 --> 00:46:19.679
<v Speaker 6>about a mile down the road was Panther Creek and

856
00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:24.159
<v Speaker 6>all that was wooded. And the guy that had the

857
00:46:24.239 --> 00:46:28.440
<v Speaker 6>dairy farm next to us, I remember walking through his

858
00:46:28.719 --> 00:46:32.000
<v Speaker 6>fields and my gosh, it was like you'd start walking

859
00:46:32.079 --> 00:46:35.400
<v Speaker 6>back from the flat ground and man, this is cool

860
00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:41.480
<v Speaker 6>back here. It's like there's big war shouts like fifteen

861
00:46:41.480 --> 00:46:47.480
<v Speaker 6>feet you know, eight to ten feet deep and real wide,

862
00:46:47.880 --> 00:46:50.679
<v Speaker 6>and it was like this is a different world back

863
00:46:50.760 --> 00:46:53.840
<v Speaker 6>and hear all of a sudden, and we had some

864
00:46:53.880 --> 00:46:55.880
<v Speaker 6>spots in behind the house the same way. And then

865
00:46:55.920 --> 00:46:59.119
<v Speaker 6>there were cornfields all up on each side of us.

866
00:46:59.159 --> 00:47:02.599
<v Speaker 6>I mean, heavenly at that time of the year. One

867
00:47:02.639 --> 00:47:06.760
<v Speaker 6>guy he had probably a thousand acres or better cornfields

868
00:47:07.039 --> 00:47:11.000
<v Speaker 6>for miles and miles all around us, up front and

869
00:47:11.199 --> 00:47:14.360
<v Speaker 6>back of us. If it wasn't to Bacca patches, it

870
00:47:14.400 --> 00:47:20.480
<v Speaker 6>was cornfields, little ponds, wooded areas. So if you start

871
00:47:20.519 --> 00:47:24.599
<v Speaker 6>walking into that area actually from and that's whay during

872
00:47:24.639 --> 00:47:28.039
<v Speaker 6>the summer months, if you ever came down in this

873
00:47:28.199 --> 00:47:31.199
<v Speaker 6>neck of the woods from actually from the Ohio River

874
00:47:31.920 --> 00:47:34.800
<v Speaker 6>all the way over into the Sargo West Louis, all

875
00:47:34.800 --> 00:47:39.000
<v Speaker 6>that area back at that time, there wasn't many houses

876
00:47:39.000 --> 00:47:43.960
<v Speaker 6>out in the country, and everything was planted. Today's time,

877
00:47:44.559 --> 00:47:50.840
<v Speaker 6>all these farm fields now are filled with housing. You know.

878
00:47:51.199 --> 00:47:55.360
<v Speaker 6>It's the landscape has changed quite a bit that when

879
00:47:55.360 --> 00:47:58.800
<v Speaker 6>I was growing up at that time, it was nothing

880
00:47:58.840 --> 00:48:04.039
<v Speaker 6>but cornfields and wooded areas and things of that nature.

881
00:48:04.760 --> 00:48:08.159
<v Speaker 3>Now it sounds like obviously the predominant crop was corn

882
00:48:08.320 --> 00:48:10.719
<v Speaker 3>and a lot of tobacco mixed in there. But and

883
00:48:10.880 --> 00:48:13.519
<v Speaker 3>you referred to your property as a farm at one point,

884
00:48:14.039 --> 00:48:16.280
<v Speaker 3>and it was it an animal farm so to speak,

885
00:48:16.280 --> 00:48:18.480
<v Speaker 3>beause you mentioned all the animals you had, or did

886
00:48:18.519 --> 00:48:21.320
<v Speaker 3>you grow other kinds of crops that were perhaps different

887
00:48:21.519 --> 00:48:22.920
<v Speaker 3>than the surrounding areas.

888
00:48:23.559 --> 00:48:25.719
<v Speaker 6>We had a little bit of a garden, not.

889
00:48:25.840 --> 00:48:28.000
<v Speaker 3>Much home vegetable garden sort of.

890
00:48:28.119 --> 00:48:33.800
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, just just not much at that time. Now

891
00:48:33.960 --> 00:48:38.119
<v Speaker 6>as far as there was a feed around too, like

892
00:48:38.239 --> 00:48:43.159
<v Speaker 6>the sweet feed and bird the bird feed, and I

893
00:48:43.159 --> 00:48:45.840
<v Speaker 6>mean we had bags and bags of that out there,

894
00:48:45.840 --> 00:48:47.920
<v Speaker 6>and there were a lot of the barn was full

895
00:48:47.960 --> 00:48:50.360
<v Speaker 6>of hay and but yeah, there was a lot of

896
00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:55.199
<v Speaker 6>different odors, especially with the dairy farm. Right next to torrees.

897
00:48:56.320 --> 00:48:59.599
<v Speaker 6>We had fruit trees, yep, had fruit trees. We had

898
00:48:59.679 --> 00:49:03.119
<v Speaker 6>apple trees, may have been a few peach trees.

899
00:49:03.199 --> 00:49:06.039
<v Speaker 4>To you was it fenced in the orchard or was

900
00:49:06.079 --> 00:49:07.599
<v Speaker 4>it just scattered trees.

901
00:49:08.199 --> 00:49:12.800
<v Speaker 6>There was a fence around our property, just a small

902
00:49:12.840 --> 00:49:13.800
<v Speaker 6>ball bar fence.

903
00:49:14.480 --> 00:49:18.239
<v Speaker 3>Earlier, you mentioned this thing or what seemed like this

904
00:49:18.280 --> 00:49:22.039
<v Speaker 3>thing at least messing with the bird cages. What kinds

905
00:49:22.039 --> 00:49:25.000
<v Speaker 3>of birds were in those cages specifically those cages?

906
00:49:25.360 --> 00:49:29.159
<v Speaker 6>Okay, the one cage that I saw it was it

907
00:49:29.199 --> 00:49:32.519
<v Speaker 6>was quail, and they were they were already they were

908
00:49:33.199 --> 00:49:35.599
<v Speaker 6>real soon to be let loose. I mean they were

909
00:49:35.719 --> 00:49:38.400
<v Speaker 6>most all of them were pretty well grown by the time.

910
00:49:39.719 --> 00:49:43.760
<v Speaker 6>When we would raise the quail as the incubator, then

911
00:49:43.800 --> 00:49:45.960
<v Speaker 6>you'd take them into the barn and they would stay

912
00:49:45.960 --> 00:49:49.360
<v Speaker 6>in the barn until they got up pretty large. We

913
00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:52.679
<v Speaker 6>had the heat lamps inside. But when they got sizeable,

914
00:49:53.360 --> 00:49:57.280
<v Speaker 6>then we had like an outside pen and it had

915
00:49:57.360 --> 00:50:00.239
<v Speaker 6>a We just put some plywood I think up the

916
00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:04.760
<v Speaker 6>top of it, maybe some plastic, and it kept the

917
00:50:04.880 --> 00:50:07.239
<v Speaker 6>rain off of them. That they were pretty good sized

918
00:50:07.320 --> 00:50:10.239
<v Speaker 6>birds by the time that they would go outside to

919
00:50:10.280 --> 00:50:15.119
<v Speaker 6>the pen, and the pen was eight foot tall. It

920
00:50:15.159 --> 00:50:18.480
<v Speaker 6>was four feet up off the ground. It was a

921
00:50:18.559 --> 00:50:21.840
<v Speaker 6>four by four in the top area, and then it

922
00:50:21.880 --> 00:50:26.400
<v Speaker 6>was sixteen feet long total. So it had three four

923
00:50:26.440 --> 00:50:28.679
<v Speaker 6>by four posts on each side, and then it just

924
00:50:29.000 --> 00:50:33.159
<v Speaker 6>two by four frame and then the real small like oh,

925
00:50:33.760 --> 00:50:38.719
<v Speaker 6>i'd say three eighths of an inch square fencing for

926
00:50:38.800 --> 00:50:42.320
<v Speaker 6>him to stand on, and maybe a small part of

927
00:50:42.360 --> 00:50:44.800
<v Speaker 6>it going around the cage, and then just regular chicken

928
00:50:44.840 --> 00:50:45.599
<v Speaker 6>ware top.

929
00:50:46.119 --> 00:50:48.199
<v Speaker 4>So this thing crawled into the cave, It went into

930
00:50:48.239 --> 00:50:49.960
<v Speaker 4>the cage and kill all the birds.

931
00:50:50.360 --> 00:50:54.920
<v Speaker 6>I think it must have came up underneath of it somehow,

932
00:50:56.400 --> 00:50:58.480
<v Speaker 6>I would almost I don't know if the birds were

933
00:50:58.519 --> 00:51:01.920
<v Speaker 6>so freaked out that night on what had happened that

934
00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:05.239
<v Speaker 6>they didn't ever roost down and that they just kept

935
00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:09.119
<v Speaker 6>flying back and forth. I couldn't figure that part out,

936
00:51:09.599 --> 00:51:14.840
<v Speaker 6>or the bigfoot sashquash came back that night and did

937
00:51:14.920 --> 00:51:18.840
<v Speaker 6>some more damage to them and literally went up underneath

938
00:51:18.840 --> 00:51:23.840
<v Speaker 6>of them, you know, possibly. I mean blood was everywhere

939
00:51:24.079 --> 00:51:26.880
<v Speaker 6>off of these birds. I mean it was like, how

940
00:51:26.920 --> 00:51:29.760
<v Speaker 6>did this happen? But when you see the birds, quail

941
00:51:29.800 --> 00:51:33.320
<v Speaker 6>are very fast when they take off flying, and uh,

942
00:51:33.519 --> 00:51:36.039
<v Speaker 6>that's when I was on that back porch and I

943
00:51:36.079 --> 00:51:39.400
<v Speaker 6>hear all those the birds in the dark, just like

944
00:51:39.440 --> 00:51:42.719
<v Speaker 6>if you're if you're very out hunting with the quail

945
00:51:43.519 --> 00:51:47.320
<v Speaker 6>and they first take off it's like, I mean it's

946
00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:51.320
<v Speaker 6>like an explosion. Yeah, I mean it's you just you

947
00:51:51.400 --> 00:51:55.199
<v Speaker 6>hear all the you hear the uh their wings just

948
00:51:56.000 --> 00:52:00.000
<v Speaker 6>fluttering and it's like wow, man, I mean they literally

949
00:52:00.079 --> 00:52:02.559
<v Speaker 6>if you're ever at honey quail, I don't know if

950
00:52:02.599 --> 00:52:04.519
<v Speaker 6>you guys haven't done any of that or not, but

951
00:52:05.079 --> 00:52:07.039
<v Speaker 6>you've got your old bird dog and it was quil

952
00:52:07.320 --> 00:52:09.800
<v Speaker 6>flow off in front of you. It's like they literally

953
00:52:09.840 --> 00:52:11.320
<v Speaker 6>scare you.

954
00:52:11.400 --> 00:52:13.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, they start I mean without a dog. You know,

955
00:52:14.000 --> 00:52:16.280
<v Speaker 4>I started them all the time, like also just boot

956
00:52:16.320 --> 00:52:19.599
<v Speaker 4>like it's like the real real percussive the weather wings get.

957
00:52:19.599 --> 00:52:22.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you name that. You put the right words there, percussion.

958
00:52:24.440 --> 00:52:28.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I asked you Jack when you got the look

959
00:52:28.440 --> 00:52:32.559
<v Speaker 5>at the squatch was how was like the hair like

960
00:52:32.719 --> 00:52:34.960
<v Speaker 5>two tone or tritone colors or do you know it's

961
00:52:35.000 --> 00:52:36.440
<v Speaker 5>longer in certain areas.

962
00:52:36.840 --> 00:52:40.960
<v Speaker 6>Uh yeah, I think it was longer in some areas.

963
00:52:41.360 --> 00:52:45.360
<v Speaker 6>And yeah, I've had different uh uh uh links of hair.

964
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:49.119
<v Speaker 6>It was a coarse hair. It was with that moon

965
00:52:49.199 --> 00:52:53.000
<v Speaker 6>shining down too. It was enough. I mean it appeared

966
00:52:53.039 --> 00:52:55.760
<v Speaker 6>to be like wow, this thing is so super hairy.

967
00:52:56.239 --> 00:52:58.719
<v Speaker 6>But then when you put the light on top of

968
00:52:58.760 --> 00:53:01.880
<v Speaker 6>it and and you could see from the sunlight, you know,

969
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:04.679
<v Speaker 6>or the moon. It was like, wait a minute, yeah,

970
00:53:04.679 --> 00:53:07.239
<v Speaker 6>there's a lot of hair here, but you can see

971
00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:10.559
<v Speaker 6>up underneath that when you can see still see the perspiration.

972
00:53:11.519 --> 00:53:15.599
<v Speaker 6>I remember seeing that perspiration on its arm so vivid.

973
00:53:15.960 --> 00:53:17.400
<v Speaker 4>Was it groom did it look groomed at all?

974
00:53:17.480 --> 00:53:20.559
<v Speaker 5>Or it just looked wild wooly that sleeping in the dirt.

975
00:53:21.239 --> 00:53:29.000
<v Speaker 6>No, actually it appeared clean. It did not look dirty

976
00:53:29.039 --> 00:53:33.960
<v Speaker 6>to me. I mean it, you know, for it smelt,

977
00:53:34.480 --> 00:53:39.199
<v Speaker 6>but it did not look muddy and raggy, and that

978
00:53:39.360 --> 00:53:43.840
<v Speaker 6>the thing appeared to be like it was clean. Maybe

979
00:53:43.880 --> 00:53:45.400
<v Speaker 6>he had been in the river, I don't know.

980
00:53:46.719 --> 00:53:49.039
<v Speaker 3>And also, since you mentioned the arm and you said

981
00:53:49.079 --> 00:53:52.119
<v Speaker 3>you had a real good look at the hands, to

982
00:53:52.199 --> 00:53:54.360
<v Speaker 3>give me a nice deep dive description of what the

983
00:53:54.440 --> 00:53:58.320
<v Speaker 3>hands looks like, maybe like the fingers the if you's

984
00:53:58.360 --> 00:54:01.280
<v Speaker 3>honey nails or whatever you remember.

985
00:54:01.840 --> 00:54:07.280
<v Speaker 6>I saw the nails. They were long, they seemed to

986
00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:10.800
<v Speaker 6>be round it. They were thick nails.

987
00:54:11.239 --> 00:54:12.760
<v Speaker 3>When you say long, what do you mean, like, how

988
00:54:12.840 --> 00:54:14.960
<v Speaker 3>much further past the tips of the fingers did they go?

989
00:54:15.719 --> 00:54:20.079
<v Speaker 6>Oh they may have went. I would say maybe half

990
00:54:20.119 --> 00:54:22.840
<v Speaker 6>of an inch or so, maybe three eighths of an inch.

991
00:54:22.920 --> 00:54:27.960
<v Speaker 6>They weren't extremely long nails, but they were thick, and

992
00:54:28.360 --> 00:54:30.480
<v Speaker 6>they were dark colored as well.

993
00:54:31.000 --> 00:54:33.280
<v Speaker 3>Did it look like a human hand or were there

994
00:54:33.320 --> 00:54:34.159
<v Speaker 3>different in anyway?

995
00:54:34.960 --> 00:54:37.840
<v Speaker 6>It looked like a human hand or more of a

996
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:43.920
<v Speaker 6>gorilla hand. The shape of it was more human, the

997
00:54:43.960 --> 00:54:47.639
<v Speaker 6>color was more like a gorilla. It was just it

998
00:54:47.679 --> 00:54:48.599
<v Speaker 6>was a big hand.

999
00:54:50.159 --> 00:54:52.280
<v Speaker 4>You got such a close look up for so long.

1000
00:54:52.360 --> 00:54:54.920
<v Speaker 4>I mean, all about the eyes. How about the eyes?

1001
00:54:55.679 --> 00:55:00.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, they were dark colored eyes. They were large eyes.

1002
00:55:00.519 --> 00:55:04.440
<v Speaker 6>They were very sunken, like a caveman's eyes would be.

1003
00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:08.960
<v Speaker 6>I didn't see any scarring on his face. The pupils

1004
00:55:09.039 --> 00:55:16.280
<v Speaker 6>themselves were larger than what like a regular human how expressions.

1005
00:55:16.880 --> 00:55:21.960
<v Speaker 6>He appeared serious, but he seemed calm too. And when

1006
00:55:22.000 --> 00:55:25.239
<v Speaker 6>we looked at each other, the when we caught each

1007
00:55:25.280 --> 00:55:28.519
<v Speaker 6>other and just looked, I think it knew that I

1008
00:55:28.639 --> 00:55:34.159
<v Speaker 6>was scared, like scared to death, and it just it

1009
00:55:34.280 --> 00:55:37.119
<v Speaker 6>sat there and was snipping, and he just kind of

1010
00:55:37.280 --> 00:55:41.280
<v Speaker 6>stares at me like, you can look and I won't

1011
00:55:41.320 --> 00:55:45.280
<v Speaker 6>be here long, man, and I'll be leaving you alone.

1012
00:55:45.599 --> 00:55:48.519
<v Speaker 6>Don't worry about me hurting you. And he kind of

1013
00:55:48.559 --> 00:55:52.679
<v Speaker 6>looked like peaceful, but he also gave this, uh, I

1014
00:55:52.760 --> 00:55:57.920
<v Speaker 6>don't know. It was like a stare look and a

1015
00:55:58.119 --> 00:55:59.599
<v Speaker 6>stare and snipping.

1016
00:56:00.599 --> 00:56:03.280
<v Speaker 4>That's just so crazy. That's that's just so shocking.

1017
00:56:03.320 --> 00:56:05.840
<v Speaker 6>I mean now when he opened this, yeah, when he

1018
00:56:05.880 --> 00:56:07.840
<v Speaker 6>opened his mouth. And I tell you what, guys, when

1019
00:56:07.880 --> 00:56:13.519
<v Speaker 6>this first happened, I mean, after I calmed down, I

1020
00:56:13.559 --> 00:56:16.119
<v Speaker 6>going on thirteen years old, I kicked it around and

1021
00:56:16.159 --> 00:56:19.519
<v Speaker 6>I thought, has anybody ever seen one of these? And

1022
00:56:19.559 --> 00:56:23.119
<v Speaker 6>I thought, I mean back then, there wasn't a way

1023
00:56:23.159 --> 00:56:26.639
<v Speaker 6>for me to do any research. There wasn't Internet, there

1024
00:56:26.719 --> 00:56:30.320
<v Speaker 6>wasn't I just and people I would tell would I

1025
00:56:30.400 --> 00:56:32.519
<v Speaker 6>pretty much after a while just gave up on it.

1026
00:56:32.599 --> 00:56:36.280
<v Speaker 6>I thought, nobody believes me. Very few people believe me.

1027
00:56:36.400 --> 00:56:39.800
<v Speaker 6>There were my sister did. There were a few close

1028
00:56:39.840 --> 00:56:42.679
<v Speaker 6>friends and they'd say, man, you just I dang, man,

1029
00:56:43.039 --> 00:56:46.000
<v Speaker 6>you went through something crazy back then. You know, we

1030
00:56:46.119 --> 00:56:48.960
<v Speaker 6>believe you, man, you know, and that'd be the end

1031
00:56:49.000 --> 00:56:52.679
<v Speaker 6>of it. But so many people, and most people that

1032
00:56:52.760 --> 00:56:54.880
<v Speaker 6>I talked to today, if I bring it up to

1033
00:56:54.960 --> 00:56:59.039
<v Speaker 6>different people, most of them they yeah, they very couldn't.

1034
00:56:59.159 --> 00:57:01.440
<v Speaker 6>This is what you did, so, you know, and what

1035
00:57:01.559 --> 00:57:05.119
<v Speaker 6>you went through very much to be true. And then

1036
00:57:05.159 --> 00:57:07.880
<v Speaker 6>there's a few out there that say, uh, no way,

1037
00:57:08.320 --> 00:57:11.079
<v Speaker 6>no way, and so I kind of learned it. You know,

1038
00:57:11.559 --> 00:57:14.119
