1
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: This happened just this summer. My best friend Jonah and

2
00:00:09,199 --> 00:00:12,359
I are both in college and our outdoorsy kind of people.

3
00:00:12,919 --> 00:00:15,439
We'd go on hikes and sometimes camping when we had

4
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,120
the chance. So this year, when classes were out for summer,

5
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:21,800
we made plans to go camping by a lake that

6
00:00:21,879 --> 00:00:25,480
was a couple hours from us. Now it's fair to

7
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:28,519
say we weren't experts at camping, but we also were

8
00:00:28,559 --> 00:00:31,679
not clueless either. We knew what we were doing and

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,600
didn't stay longer than what we knew would be safe.

10
00:00:35,679 --> 00:00:38,119
We set out on the trail in the morning, prepared

11
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,000
for two full nights. The hike took a bit longer

12
00:00:42,039 --> 00:00:44,039
than it was supposed to, but we got to the

13
00:00:44,119 --> 00:00:48,479
lake around midday. From what I know, there's hundreds of

14
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,399
trails leading to this lake because of how big it is,

15
00:00:51,799 --> 00:00:54,240
and there were so many places to camp at that

16
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,079
it would be unlikely to run into anyone else. We

17
00:00:58,159 --> 00:01:00,439
didn't want to have to talk to other people, so

18
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,119
when we arrived and saw that nobody else was here,

19
00:01:03,439 --> 00:01:07,519
we were feeling good. The first hour we just sat

20
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,280
down and rested from the long hike. Then we put

21
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,599
our tents up in the tree line, just outside of

22
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,519
the beach. By then, the sun was setting, so Jonah

23
00:01:16,519 --> 00:01:18,879
got a fire going and I went out to collect

24
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,359
some more dry sticks to keep it running. I picked

25
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,840
up a few, not going too far from our tents,

26
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,920
but I suddenly heard a noise from just in front

27
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:33,280
of me. I lifted my eyes and looked ahead. It

28
00:01:33,359 --> 00:01:36,079
was getting dark, but I could still see most of

29
00:01:36,079 --> 00:01:39,280
the woods, and pretty far back there looked to be

30
00:01:39,359 --> 00:01:43,519
a person. After looking for more than a couple seconds,

31
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,359
I was able to see them walking and confirmed that

32
00:01:46,439 --> 00:01:49,319
it definitely was a person out there in the woods.

33
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,879
I quickly walked back to the campsite and told Jonah

34
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,400
about it. We weren't afraid or anything. It was just

35
00:01:56,439 --> 00:01:58,560
a little weird to have seen someone out here in

36
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,040
the exact place we were at at I think it

37
00:02:02,079 --> 00:02:04,760
also would have been different if they were walking along

38
00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:08,120
the beach, but they were just going straight through the woods,

39
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:13,879
not even on a trail. Fifteen minutes went by, and

40
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,000
the sun was now past the horizon, covering the woods

41
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:22,360
in darkness, and that's when we heard footsteps approaching. A

42
00:02:22,439 --> 00:02:25,759
moment later, a man appeared in the light from our campfire.

43
00:02:26,599 --> 00:02:28,919
He looked to be in his thirties with a beard

44
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,199
and shoulder length hair, but I immediately got a bad

45
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,520
feeling about him. He smiled at us from across the campfire,

46
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,800
then asked us if we knew the way to a

47
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,360
specific place. I didn't recognize the name, but it sounded

48
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,240
like a trail name.

49
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,599
Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm not sure where that is, I said softly.

50
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,479
Speaker 1: The man kept his smile, but just looked at us

51
00:02:53,479 --> 00:02:57,159
for another moment before turning around and walking back into

52
00:02:57,159 --> 00:03:02,039
the woods, not saying anything else. I looked over at

53
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,039
Jonah and both of us were equally unnerved and confused.

54
00:03:07,719 --> 00:03:10,360
After we were sure he was gone, Jonah asked me

55
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,759
if that was the same person I'd seen, but I

56
00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:18,000
wasn't sure. It probably was, though we spent the rest

57
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,400
of that night by the fire trying to think of

58
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,639
reasons for the man coming up to us like that.

59
00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:26,400
The only thing that would somewhat make sense was if

60
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,039
he got desperate for help once the sun went down,

61
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,000
But the man didn't seem desperate at all. He asked

62
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,000
for directions like everything was normal. If he were desperate,

63
00:03:37,199 --> 00:03:39,680
it probably would have been noticeable, and he wouldn't have

64
00:03:39,759 --> 00:03:43,960
just left after asking one question. Both of us were

65
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,319
getting a little freaked, so we let the conversation die out.

66
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,599
Once it was getting closer to bed, we let the

67
00:03:50,599 --> 00:03:53,319
fire burn out as well, then got in our tents.

68
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,280
I tried to sleep, laying there for at least an hour,

69
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,199
just listening to the sounds of the woods. But there

70
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,680
was just this weird feeling I had that wouldn't even

71
00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:06,479
let me close my eyes for too long without getting nervous.

72
00:04:07,599 --> 00:04:12,039
And then after somewhere around two hours, I heard it again,

73
00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:18,759
footsteps coming toward our tents. I yelled Jonah's name, then

74
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:20,399
rushed out of my tent and looked.

75
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,439
Speaker 2: Into the woods.

76
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: A figure was standing only ten feet from me, and

77
00:04:25,439 --> 00:04:28,480
just a second later they turned around and ran back

78
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:33,639
into the woods. Being covered by the darkness. Jonah came

79
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,480
out only in time to hear the footsteps running away,

80
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,959
but he said he knew exactly what was going on

81
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:43,160
as soon as I yelled his name. We packed up

82
00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:46,360
that night, then waited tiredly for dawn to make our

83
00:04:46,399 --> 00:04:50,040
way out of the woods. We don't know who that

84
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,160
man was or what he really wanted. If I hadn't

85
00:04:54,199 --> 00:04:56,920
stayed awake, though, we might have never.

86
00:04:56,759 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: Left those woods. I live out by the.

87
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,879
Speaker 1: Rocky Mountains in the Northwest. I don't go camping all

88
00:05:14,879 --> 00:05:17,720
that often anymore now that I'm older, but I'd say

89
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:20,920
i'd go out there maybe once a year. I'm more

90
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,600
of a sitting in the backyard kind of person, but

91
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,439
going out into the mountains was always worth the hassle

92
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:30,319
when I did go out, this was a couple years ago,

93
00:05:30,519 --> 00:05:32,079
when I'd gone out in the early.

94
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,639
Speaker 2: Weeks of fall.

95
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,319
Speaker 1: The trail I chose was only a twenty minute drive

96
00:05:36,319 --> 00:05:39,040
from me. I parked off to the side in a

97
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,439
small dirt parking lot, then grabbed my bags and started walking.

98
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:46,319
It was a little colder than I was anticipating, but

99
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,040
the trail was a really nice walk. When I got

100
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,839
to the campsite, I set everything down and got my

101
00:05:52,959 --> 00:05:56,839
tent top. It was a very small, open area with

102
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,319
nothing but trees surrounding it, no other tens or anything,

103
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,920
so it looked like I was the only one camping

104
00:06:03,959 --> 00:06:07,959
out there. The sun was still pretty high up, so

105
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,639
after a quick break, I set out on a thin

106
00:06:10,759 --> 00:06:14,360
side path that went to an overlook of the mountains.

107
00:06:14,759 --> 00:06:17,399
I saw online before i'd left that it was only

108
00:06:17,399 --> 00:06:20,040
a ten minute walk from the campsite, so I didn't

109
00:06:20,079 --> 00:06:23,160
bring much other than a water bottle in my basic backpack.

110
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,399
When I got there, I sat down and enjoyed the

111
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,959
view for a half hour. Again, it didn't look like

112
00:06:31,079 --> 00:06:33,720
anyone had been out here, which, seeing as it was

113
00:06:33,759 --> 00:06:36,439
starting to get colder out I guess it made sense.

114
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,519
Once I was ready, I got up and walked back

115
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,600
to the campsite. When I walked up to the open area,

116
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,839
something felt wrong. Nothing that I'd left behind looked like

117
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:54,079
it did when I left. Everything was just slightly off.

118
00:06:55,639 --> 00:06:59,480
I checked around for anything missing or obvious things having

119
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,720
been moved to, but everything was there. Part of me

120
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,199
wondered if I was just being paranoid. Everything that I

121
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,759
felt was off were things that I could have just

122
00:07:09,839 --> 00:07:13,319
remembered wrong, Like I was pretty sure that I'd zipped

123
00:07:13,399 --> 00:07:16,680
up the tent before leaving, but it was unzipped when

124
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,279
I got back. That's not something an animal could do,

125
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,279
and there were no other signs of people having come by,

126
00:07:23,839 --> 00:07:26,199
so the obvious answer would be that I just didn't

127
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:29,439
zip up the tent before leaving, even though I thought

128
00:07:29,439 --> 00:07:33,920
i'd remember doing it. I tried to relax, putting my

129
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,240
chair up and moving some stones around to make a

130
00:07:36,279 --> 00:07:39,079
fire pit. As the sun was going down and the

131
00:07:39,079 --> 00:07:43,199
cold was setting in. I warmed up some water to

132
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,920
make some tea with and just kind of sat there

133
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:53,199
in my own thoughts. After some time, probably an hour,

134
00:07:53,879 --> 00:07:59,839
I heard someone walking. I turned toward the sound, seeing

135
00:07:59,839 --> 00:08:02,360
it was from where the trail was, but it was

136
00:08:02,439 --> 00:08:06,000
too dark now to see anything beyond the open area.

137
00:08:07,759 --> 00:08:10,600
While I watched and listened, it sounded like they were

138
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,560
coming in toward the campsite, but then there were a

139
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,879
few seconds where I didn't hear anything. I almost felt

140
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,360
like they were looking at me from somewhere out on

141
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:25,639
the trail. But then the footsteps started again, walking away

142
00:08:25,639 --> 00:08:30,519
from the campsite, but not back on the trail. It

143
00:08:30,639 --> 00:08:33,840
sounded like they were walking off the trail, kind of

144
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,039
off to the side of the campsite.

145
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 2: I don't know.

146
00:08:38,039 --> 00:08:41,159
Speaker 1: I was getting a little creeped out now. The thought

147
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,480
of everything seeming off before had started to come back

148
00:08:44,519 --> 00:08:47,440
to mind now that I knew someone else was out here.

149
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,679
I didn't know if they were out here before or

150
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,799
if they had just arrived. But that's just why it

151
00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:57,720
was so unnerving. I didn't know what was going on.

152
00:08:59,639 --> 00:09:03,080
Then the footsteps started to get louder again, coming toward

153
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,720
the camp site from the other side. I shifted my gaze,

154
00:09:08,039 --> 00:09:11,159
but not even a second later, I heard another set

155
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,919
of footsteps from behind me. Both were quiet and subtle,

156
00:09:16,399 --> 00:09:19,840
but given everything now, it was very clear that they

157
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,279
were trying to not be seen. As they moved in closer,

158
00:09:24,919 --> 00:09:28,120
I quickly unzipped my bag and pulled out my handgun

159
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,879
that I had only for desperate needs. I stood up

160
00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:34,159
and held it toward the trees, where I could hear

161
00:09:34,159 --> 00:09:38,919
one of them approaching from I didn't say anything, afraid

162
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,399
to show the fear in my voice, but I knew

163
00:09:41,399 --> 00:09:43,440
they could see me in the light from the campfire,

164
00:09:43,879 --> 00:09:46,000
and I was just hoping that the gun would be

165
00:09:46,159 --> 00:09:49,039
enough to make them second guess whatever they were trying.

166
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:56,919
It went quiet, both footsteps stopping. I turned all around,

167
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:02,639
looking for any movement. After a minute of no sounds

168
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,759
at all, I started to put things back in my bag,

169
00:10:06,159 --> 00:10:08,679
being careful to not put down my weapon for more

170
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,120
than a few seconds at a time. I still hadn't

171
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,759
heard them leave, so I knew they had to be

172
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:19,240
watching me from somewhere out there. Once I got what

173
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,600
I could fit in my bag, I started to make

174
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,120
my way to the trail, leaving only the tent behind.

175
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,039
From what I could hear, they didn't follow me out.

176
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,120
Once I got a decent distance away, I turned on

177
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,279
my flashlight and made it the rest of the way

178
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,480
to my car. To sum it up, the police were

179
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,360
useless in this kind of scenario. Whoever the two people

180
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,879
were that were out there had never shown themselves or

181
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,919
really did anything at all. Don't get me wrong, it

182
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,720
was very obvious they were planning something horrible, but there

183
00:10:55,799 --> 00:11:00,320
wasn't enough to go off of. But after my counter

184
00:11:00,799 --> 00:11:03,759
and seeing a lot of these situations happened to others

185
00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:06,679
as well, I don't think I'll ever be going out

186
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:25,919
there on my own again. My brother owns a really

187
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,960
nice RV that he lets me borrow sometimes. We lived

188
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,360
fifteen minutes from each other and in a state that

189
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,279
is known for camping, hiking, and just outdoor activities in general.

190
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,320
It was last fall when I asked if I could

191
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,240
borrow his RV to go camping out by a small

192
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,399
fishing pond. The weather was getting too cold to comfortably

193
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,080
camp in a tent, so the RV was perfect. I

194
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:52,279
really just wanted to spend a few days fishing out

195
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,279
there while enjoying the time to myself. I went over

196
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,720
and picked up the RV, then drove it down to

197
00:11:58,759 --> 00:12:02,919
the pond. The trail definitely wasn't made for driving on,

198
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,240
being narrow and only made of dirt, but I'd usually

199
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,919
see tire marks all over it, so I knew that

200
00:12:09,039 --> 00:12:12,399
other people did the same as me. This time, though,

201
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,480
the trail was clear of any other vehicles, and when

202
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,840
I got to the pond there was nobody else around.

203
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,960
I parked off to the side in case anyone else

204
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,960
did show up. Then I pretty much got everything ready

205
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,039
and went out to fish right away. I had a

206
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:33,480
couple beers and just sat back. It was really nice.

207
00:12:33,759 --> 00:12:36,919
By five o'clock, I started cleaning up and getting all

208
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,960
my gear back by the RV, and as I did,

209
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,200
a pickup truck pulled in from the trail. It was

210
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,960
an older, rusty truck that looked like it had been

211
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,240
through a lot over the years. There was no camper

212
00:12:50,279 --> 00:12:53,679
attached to it, it was just the truck. It had

213
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,600
tinted windows, though, so I assumed they were just using

214
00:12:56,639 --> 00:12:59,080
the truck to sleep in as well, which isn't the

215
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,320
most uncommon thing I've heard of. They parked on the

216
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,000
other side of the field and turned off their headlights,

217
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,559
but stayed inside. I finished packing my things back into

218
00:13:09,639 --> 00:13:13,440
the RV and went in for the night. I looked

219
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,279
out a few times to see if the truck was

220
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,279
still there so I could maybe introduce myself to keep

221
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,720
things from being weird, but nothing seemed to have changed.

222
00:13:22,799 --> 00:13:25,200
It was a little strange to not say hi when

223
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,639
you drove out into the middle of nowhere and happened

224
00:13:27,639 --> 00:13:30,080
to be in the same vicinity as someone else. But

225
00:13:30,159 --> 00:13:32,480
I just went on with my night, getting in bed

226
00:13:32,519 --> 00:13:37,440
and falling asleep by eight. At some time during the night, though,

227
00:13:37,759 --> 00:13:40,159
I woke up for a minute after hearing a car

228
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,480
door open and close. I remember checking out the window

229
00:13:44,759 --> 00:13:47,960
and not seeing anyone, and then going right back to sleep.

230
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,639
In the morning, I got up and made breakfast, then

231
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,799
went back out to fish. The truck was still in

232
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,879
the same exact spot as before. It didn't look like

233
00:13:58,919 --> 00:14:01,840
they'd done anything or even left the truck at all.

234
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,240
I sat out there fishing for well over three hours,

235
00:14:06,639 --> 00:14:10,159
not seeing any movement from the truck. It was actually

236
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,039
getting really unsettling. Either someone was in there and for

237
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,759
some reason not leaving at all, or they had left

238
00:14:16,759 --> 00:14:18,559
in the middle of the night when I heard the

239
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:23,120
door open. Both were not normal and made me feel uneasy.

240
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:26,879
I ended up spending the rest of the day in

241
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,360
the RV. I couldn't help but feel like they were

242
00:14:30,399 --> 00:14:33,320
watching me from inside their truck the whole time I

243
00:14:33,399 --> 00:14:38,000
was out there fishing. While in the RV, I looked

244
00:14:38,039 --> 00:14:41,360
out the windows multiple times, checking for any change in

245
00:14:41,399 --> 00:14:44,919
the truck. But then, at just about seven pm, I

246
00:14:45,039 --> 00:14:49,240
heard the engine to the truck start. I looked out

247
00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:52,600
the window and watched as they pulled around and slowly

248
00:14:52,679 --> 00:14:55,519
drove up to the trail like they were about to leave,

249
00:14:56,159 --> 00:15:00,320
But then they stopped right in the middle of few

250
00:15:00,399 --> 00:15:05,879
seconds passed before the truck shut off. Seeing them blocking

251
00:15:05,919 --> 00:15:10,519
off the trail immediately made my stomach drop. A man

252
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,600
stepped out, clearly in a rush, running up to the

253
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,240
bed of his truck and grabbing something out of the back.

254
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:21,120
Then he faced the RV. I left the window and

255
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,840
locked up the door, hearing footsteps running toward it. As

256
00:15:24,879 --> 00:15:29,240
I did, the door started shaking aggressively as they tried

257
00:15:29,279 --> 00:15:32,559
pulling on it from the other side. My mind at

258
00:15:32,559 --> 00:15:35,440
this point was almost in this foggy state where I

259
00:15:35,559 --> 00:15:38,919
just had no idea what to do. I ran to

260
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,720
the driver's seat and started up the RV. As it

261
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,759
sounded like the man was trying to pry the door open.

262
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,440
I pressed on the gas and went toward their truck,

263
00:15:48,919 --> 00:15:52,720
slowing down as I approached the back of it, hearing

264
00:15:52,759 --> 00:15:55,799
the man chasing me down though, I pressed the RV

265
00:15:55,879 --> 00:15:58,759
against the truck and pushed it as the man ran

266
00:15:58,799 --> 00:16:02,600
over and tried to get back in. Before he could,

267
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,639
it slid off the trail and opened up a path

268
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:09,200
for me to get around. I drove out of there

269
00:16:09,519 --> 00:16:12,159
and didn't look back until I was on the road.

270
00:16:13,879 --> 00:16:16,320
I went a little ways down before I called the

271
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,759
police to report what had happened. By the time they

272
00:16:19,759 --> 00:16:23,200
got there, though, the truck and the man were gone.

273
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,279
I can't be sure as to what the man was

274
00:16:27,279 --> 00:16:30,559
intending to do. The obvious answer is that he was

275
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,600
trying to rob me, both of the RV and everything

276
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,480
in it. But then, why did he spend so long

277
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,440
watching me and setting up a whole trap? Why not

278
00:16:40,519 --> 00:16:42,799
just block it off right when he arrived and do

279
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:47,559
everything quickly. It felt like he was watching me seeing

280
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,960
if I was alone, as if you were planning to

281
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,919
do more than just taking the vehicle and leaving.

282
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:55,399
Speaker 2: I think that if

283
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,759
Speaker 1: Things had gone differently, I would have never been seen

284
00:16:59,080 --> 00:16:59,919
after that night.
