This was probably fifteen miles from 44 00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:40.759 ten ten ten miles maybe from Bangor and this area, 45 00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:43.080 this state is you know, Pine Tree state anyway. So 46 00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:47.719 but they heard some ruckats out on the front porch 47 00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:49.439 one night. There was a bunch of the kids in 48 00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:52.759 the house there and they opened the door. They claimed 49 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:59.520 he claimed that they saw Bigfoot, and he Bigfoot or sasquatch, sabby, 50 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:02.240 whatever you want I want to call him, was chucking 51 00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:06.080 hey out of the barn. You know, it was, you know, 52 00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:10.919 it was like a you know, in the seventies, I 53 00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:11.560 had seen. 54 00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:13.879 The Live in a Boggy cree never, you know. 55 00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:17.879 Really dismissed it, never thought anything of it. And my father, 56 00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:20.599 you know, I think in that time I mentioned I 57 00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:22.400 seen the movie. He told me about his kind of 58 00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:26.680 his story. You know, I brushed it off. Never thought 59 00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.240 of anything of my life. I mean I hunted in 60 00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:32.840 the woods for years and years and never really seen 61 00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:37.840 his things strange, you know, had some airy fieltons sometimes. 62 00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:39.759 But didn't really think anything of it. 63 00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:46.319 And then in twenty seventeen, you know, all those years past, 64 00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:50.599 I'm sixty years old now, and all those years passed, 65 00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.439 and I you know, my former wife and I we 66 00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:56.759 approachased some property just outside of Bangoria. It's a country 67 00:03:56.759 --> 00:04:01.840 setting and it was forty two acres under tree management and. 68 00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:03.800 We took the first free acres. 69 00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:07.400 There was a log cabin we had bought, and you know, 70 00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:10.319 I was developing the land around it. You couldn't touch 71 00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.080 anything down back. It was like six hundred feet wide 72 00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:17.439 three thousand feet deep, and we had a fifteen acres 73 00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.639 on you know, beyond this pond that was down there 74 00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:26.279 and it was landlocked, and I was developing a path 75 00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.079 you know, down to the pond and brought kids down there, 76 00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:33.079 you know, my grandchildren and the wife. We used to 77 00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:36.079 walk down there, and you know, I was checking property 78 00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.680 lines when we first brought the property, and there was 79 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:41.079 one that I couldn't find off this pine tree that 80 00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:47.720 was had an old barbed wire fence. So there in 81 00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:50.480 seventeen there and I think it was a late summer fall. 82 00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:53.560 The wife and I decided we took the day off. 83 00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.879 Something went down and there in the afternoon and we 84 00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.920 had a little boat that we could get across the pond, 85 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.319 and we've you know, previous we had gone to the 86 00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:08.360 right side of that, you know, the you know, looking 87 00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:11.079 for property lines and walked through there and got some 88 00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:16.000 weird feelings, but always dismissed them, and well, this day 89 00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:19.680 I was looking for the left side, left side you know, 90 00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:23.279 from the Barboe fence. So we get in a little 91 00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:25.879 boat that I had and I had a trollo motor 92 00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:26.879 and we you. 93 00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:28.279 Know, put it across the pond. 94 00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:31.399 It was probably the other side where the squale grass 95 00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.319 was was kind of narrowed where our stream come through 96 00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:38.439 that comes through there. And so I docked the you know, 97 00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:41.560 white State on the boat and I had to push 98 00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:45.560 myself through see you know binds and really thick brush there, 99 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:50.480 you know, And I pushed myself through it, and there 100 00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:53.480 was this old pine tree that was dead, that was 101 00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:54.560 laying down right. 102 00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.240 As soon as I come through the brush, and there 103 00:05:57.279 --> 00:05:58.759 was a branch you. 104 00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:00.560 Know, there was got branches on there. I had to 105 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:02.279 get over it because it was like, I mean, right 106 00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:06.399 in my way. So I grabbed that branch and it 107 00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:10.560 cracked so loud and echoed up through those woods. And 108 00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:13.800 you know, I didn't think anything of that. So I 109 00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:18.079 get over the tree and I walk out around and I, 110 00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:22.040 you know, I find that property marker of the continued 111 00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:25.279 Bob Wife fence, and you know, I yelled to the 112 00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:26.720 you know, the wife I said, you. 113 00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:28.680 Know, hey, I found it, you know, and it was 114 00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:29.120 all good. 115 00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.800 So I, you know, get back over the tree and 116 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:34.360 get back out of the brush, get in the boat, 117 00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:38.439 and we get back across the pond and I'm pulling 118 00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:41.000 the boat back up in the swale grass and on 119 00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:44.439 the other side of the shore there. And as soon 120 00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:45.680 as I pull it up, when we get out, and 121 00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:49.839 we're just standing there for a second, and right where 122 00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:54.480 I was standing, like one hundred feet away, the biggest crack. 123 00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:55.879 It was probably five. 124 00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:59.800 Times the crack I mean, you know, And in my head, 125 00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:02.199 I'm going, is this a bear? 126 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:03.959 Can there do this? 127 00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:06.839 And I'm thinking no. And then the second thing came 128 00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:10.560 over my mind was bigfoot. And why I don't know, 129 00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:13.399 but it was. It was so bizarre because I had 130 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:17.480 never heard any stories, never watched any podcast ever, you know, 131 00:07:18.040 --> 00:07:22.480 and I was so freaked out. The you know, it's 132 00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:25.480 like the skin and the hair stood up from my 133 00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:27.399 spine all the way up to the top of my head. 134 00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:31.879 It was very bizarre, and I just was like in shock, 135 00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.920 very very strange. I'd never ever experienced something like that. 136 00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:40.399 I yelled out hey, just as loud as I could, 137 00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:44.160 and no response. I had my truck pocked there. I 138 00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:47.160 told the wife, get in the car. I mean, get 139 00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:47.959 in the truck. 140 00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:48.680 Let's go. 141 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:52.000 So we get out of there, and we just we 142 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:54.399 were like dumbfounded, you know. On the ride back up 143 00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:57.920 it was probably you know, a quarter of a mile 144 00:07:58.000 --> 00:07:59.639 back up through there in the woods to the house, 145 00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:03.120 and you know, we just we didn't know.

And you know, I sense 153 00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:34.919 there was something there, but I mean I didn't you know, 154 00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:37.679 see anything it was, but it was right in that 155 00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:42.000 spot I was at and I just, like I said, 156 00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:44.879 I just it totally freaked me out.

I mean, 190 00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:49.360 it was just it really confused me because, like I said, 191 00:10:49.399 --> 00:10:53.360 I never experienced anything like that and something to respond 192 00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:56.639 so soon to, you know, And I was thinking in 193 00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:59.399 my head, this this, this can't be a bear. Bears 194 00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:02.679 don't you know, they don't break trees like that or 195 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:05.639 branches or whatever. That noise was, you know, but it 196 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:08.080 sounded exactly about It was like it was trying to 197 00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:10.600 replicate what I did, but five times ten times more, 198 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:11.159 you know what I mean. 199 00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:12.879 Yeah, absolutely bizarre. 200 00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:19.360 I was thinking through the experiences I've had, and I 201 00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:23.399 just realized, I think there is a thing from Oregon 202 00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:27.240 that I haven't shared yet. Maybe it was only really quick, 203 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:28.600 and this might be a good time to share it 204 00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:32.360 because we're kind of talking about tree breaks and cracks 205 00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:36.960 and tree cracks and stuff like that. So we were 206 00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:41.320 up in the woods at this research area and a 207 00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:44.519 gentleman his name was Chad. This is probably like ten 208 00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:48.320 at night and it was really dark, right and we 209 00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:51.039 were at the edge of the meadow. He takes his 210 00:11:51.399 --> 00:11:55.360 really high powered flashlight. There had been a sighting on 211 00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:57.919 the edge of the meadow just that same day. He 212 00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:02.120 shines it into the woods, and a second after he 213 00:12:02.159 --> 00:12:06.000 did that, the loudest break of a branch I've ever 214 00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:08.159 heard in my life was just like film and I 215 00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:12.360 was like, oh man, we are in big trouble. Never 216 00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:15.159 saw anything, but it was like, is right there? And 217 00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:18.360 it really really affects you. This puts you on a 218 00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:23.039 on a trail of trying to find answers. Did you 219 00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:26.679 start looking into this area of Bangor and seeing if 220 00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:30.399 there had been other experiences people had had or have 221 00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:33.600 you been able to talk to anyone that has come forward. 222 00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:38.519 Well, I've mentioned too a few people people thinking nuts. 223 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:41.720 I've got a lot of response from especially hunters. Oh 224 00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:44.559 there's no such thing as bigfoot. If I see bigfoot, 225 00:12:44.919 --> 00:12:47.840 I'll shoot him. I'm going, oh yeah, okay, after what 226 00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:52.000 I've heard over the years on the podcasts, you yeah, 227 00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:52.679 you can try. 228 00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:56.679 But it's so funny the response you get out of people. 229 00:12:57.279 --> 00:13:00.840 But not right away because I gone through a divorce, 230 00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:04.960 so my life kind of I never never forgot it, 231 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:07.120 but it kind of took a different track for you know, 232 00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:10.000 a couple of years there, but it was still always 233 00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:10.440 in my mind. 234 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:11.799 And then I started researching it. 235 00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:16.240 And I've got to say, I try to contact this 236 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:22.919 guy that I just recently found out about my daughter's boyfriend, 237 00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:25.279 because I had talked with my daughter quite a bit 238 00:13:25.320 --> 00:13:30.360 about this, and her boyfriend lives up in Millanocket, and 239 00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:33.320 I guess that there was he knows a hunter. 240 00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:35.200 He lives close by by me. 241 00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:38.919 I'm actually outside of Bangor now a little self a 242 00:13:38.919 --> 00:13:43.679 bit but not far from me. Is a guy who 243 00:13:44.080 --> 00:13:49.320 was hunting just it's it's fairly recent. I'm not sure 244 00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:53.200 exactly here, but fairly recent. And they had all everybody 245 00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:56.480 split up out of the hunting camp and and some 246 00:13:56.519 --> 00:13:59.440 of the guys came back, and this guy comes back. 247 00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.440 He comes and sits in the chair, pure white head, 248 00:14:04.600 --> 00:14:08.879 urinated in his pants, and everybody said, what's wrong, and 249 00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:12.799 he says, I just saw bigfoot. And so my daughter's 250 00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:17.279 boyfriend proceeded to tell me that he he started doing research. 251 00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.440 He had pictures and he was supposed to send me 252 00:14:19.480 --> 00:14:24.600 some pictures of footprints. This guy was just so he 253 00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:27.480 I mean run right into it. It was right in 254 00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:30.120 front of him while he was hunting early early in 255 00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:34.559 the morning, just barely light, as from what I gathered 256 00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:36.600 from the story. And I tried to contact the guy 257 00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:39.759 and to talk to him about his experience because I 258 00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:44.399 wanted to share more factual information, you know when you called. 259 00:14:44.519 --> 00:14:47.759 But I tried to contact me. He didn't contact me back. 260 00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:50.799 It was like in the last week. But and you know, 261 00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:53.440 I've heard of you know, other you know a few 262 00:14:53.440 --> 00:14:57.000 other people that have you know, seen strange things, and 263 00:14:57.159 --> 00:15:01.120 there's I did start researching a few years after I 264 00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:04.559 left that uh you know the lug cab in that area, 265 00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.279 you know of some incidents has taken place up in 266 00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:15.720 a Rooster County. There was a guy supposedly in northwestern 267 00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:19.000 Maine that would add a grow and he had one 268 00:15:19.039 --> 00:15:21.639 in there thumping the ground all the time and try 269 00:15:21.679 --> 00:15:26.080 to intimidating him out of there, and he didn't leave. 270 00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:28.320 He just kept going back and they kind of finally 271 00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:31.240 calmed down, but they were always there every time he 272 00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:39.000 went in, you know, and very bizarre stories. Another incident 273 00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:45.200 was I think it might have been maybe in the forties, 274 00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:48.240 there was an incident up up near Millanocket. There was 275 00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:51.720 a mountain up there that the natives lived around, and 276 00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:54.720 said they wouldn't go near that mountain because there were 277 00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:59.720 killers up there, hairy killers. I guess you know what 278 00:15:59.799 --> 00:16:04.440 that equated to was some really aggressive squatch. And I 279 00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:08.879 read an article recently about a guy that was a 280 00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:14.120 he's a hunter, he's a bear hunter. And he commented 281 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:18.720 on a sighting and I don't think this was that 282 00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:21.840 long ago, and said, believe me, you know that some 283 00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:23.960 people were saying, oh, you know, difference of joke all this, 284 00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:27.679 and he said, I'm a I'm a guide up in 285 00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:28.519 northern Maine, and. 286 00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:32.039 Believe me, Bigfoot exists, you know. And he didn't elaborate 287 00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:34.879 any more than that. Very interesting. 288 00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:40.919 There was another bizarre story that was I think in 289 00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:45.679 maybe Oh, I don't know if it was the fifties 290 00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:49.440 or sixties, but on the coast there was a little 291 00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:52.879 boy who grew up and wrote a story about. 292 00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:53.639 When he was a child. 293 00:16:54.159 --> 00:16:56.120 He had just moved into this town and there was 294 00:16:56.159 --> 00:16:59.080 this little girl he met and they rode bicycles together. 295 00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:01.840 She kept asking him, do you want to meet my friend? 296 00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:05.359 Do you want to meet my friend. And this is 297 00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:07.519 you know, some of the stories of research. So if 298 00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:12.160 you asked to your question. But anyways, so one day 299 00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:15.000 he finally decided he was, you know, take a ride 300 00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:18.359 on the bike with her and meet her friend. And 301 00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:20.400 so they stop at the store and she buys all 302 00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:22.960 these bags of chips. You know, these these kids are 303 00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:25.920 about ten from what I can stand from the story. 304 00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:30.839 And so they go into the woods and you know. 305 00:17:31.319 --> 00:17:32.799 They ride bike in the woods and they get off 306 00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:36.559 their bikes and they're at this big tree, a big blowdown, 307 00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:41.000 and she's you know, saying hello, hello, come here, come here, 308 00:17:41.799 --> 00:17:45.240 and all of a sudden, the ground started, you know, 309 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:49.920 they was stumping and you know, they was growling, and 310 00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:52.880 she was throwing these bags of potato chips I guess 311 00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:54.440 over this log, and there was a squawk. 312 00:17:54.519 --> 00:17:55.240 It was a squatch. 313 00:17:56.079 --> 00:18:00.279 And so the kid runs up in the tree and 314 00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:03.200 you know she said that you know, he don't like you. 315 00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:07.680 And they're up in this tree and you know, scared, scared, 316 00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:09.559 and I guess there was. 317 00:18:09.519 --> 00:18:12.200 A you know, the thing was making a ruckus and 318 00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:13.839 the kid ended up coming out of the tree or whatever, 319 00:18:13.880 --> 00:18:15.400 getting on his bike and riding out of there as 320 00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:17.279 quick as he could go, and he ended up, you know, 321 00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:22.039 writing a little story about it. But there's definitely been there. 322 00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:24.519 You know. It sounds to me like they're definitely here. 323 00:18:24.640 --> 00:18:28.200 You know, they are the master of camouflage, and uh yeah, 324 00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:30.599 you know, I've been in the woods many times hunting, 325 00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:32.400 and you know, I hear a lot of people talk 326 00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:37.759 about these smells, you know, these future almost dead smells. 327 00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:40.559 I smelled that stuff many many times. Never you know, 328 00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:43.720 gave it any regard at all, you know. And you know, 329 00:18:43.799 --> 00:18:45.519 even when I was a kid, I spent a lot 330 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:49.880 of times, very young, from sun up to sundown in 331 00:18:49.920 --> 00:18:54.200 these gravel pits and woods with friends for you know, 332 00:18:54.279 --> 00:18:58.480 all day long and had smelled smells and you know. 333 00:18:58.599 --> 00:19:00.680 Never never thought anything of it. 334 00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:04.599 But you know, it's like, you know, they you know, 335 00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:08.200 all the everybody says, you know that they hide very well. 336 00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:11.240 But I do believe that they're here, you know, I 337 00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:14.480 do believe that. And this this guy was telling me 338 00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:17.599 about that. My daughter's boyfriend knows. I'm going to still 339 00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:20.279 try to contact him because he showed me some pictures 340 00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:21.759 on his phone when I was at her house just 341 00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:26.680 not long ago, of footprints and some structures or something 342 00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:30.440 and very interesting and I don't know, I can't stop pursuing, 343 00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:33.920 and I'm going to continue to pursue, you know, Yeah, 344 00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:35.880 very very interesting stuff. 345 00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:40.720 That's very intrigue and yeah, and things like that where 346 00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:42.680 you know you're waiting to hear back from the guy, 347 00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:46.079 especially in an area like that. I mean, that could 348 00:19:46.079 --> 00:19:49.640 take years for that individual to finally get back to you, 349 00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:53.960 but it will probably happen somedays. So I would, you know, 350 00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:57.000 not give up on it. Sometimes it does take years 351 00:19:57.000 --> 00:19:58.160 to hear back from a person. 352 00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:00.759 Well this this guy only there's a couple of towns 353 00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:04.839 away from me right now.
