I appreciate the invite. 51 00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.599 I'm super excited to have you here. You really don't 52 00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:12.199 need any kind of announcement because anybody that's heard a 53 00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:14.199 big put no, so you are. So I'm We're really 54 00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:16.479 excited to have you on, and I'm super excited that 55 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:18.360 my co host Daniel got you to come on. I 56 00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:20.199 know we're gonna get it into a lot of stuff tonight, 57 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:23.000 but I thought it might be cool to talk about 58 00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:25.199 maybe some of the scariest encounters that you have heard 59 00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:27.680 on your show. Let's just jump right into it. 60 00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:30.719 There's so many and I'm almost five hundred episodes. I 61 00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:33.240 was looking today putting together some stuff we're going to 62 00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:35.360 be over in the UK doing a speaking gig here 63 00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:37.479 in July. So I'm working ahead and I was like, 64 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:41.599 I'm twenty two episodes away from five hundred episodes on 65 00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:43.400 the show. I want to do something special for the 66 00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:47.520 five hundred episode. Obviously, that said, there's been so many 67 00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:51.759 Scary is such a subjective thing for people. For me, 68 00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:55.199 scary is maybe different than you're scary. I tell you, 69 00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:59.080 some of the closer encounters I think are to me 70 00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:01.639 some of the scary. Because I've always said I've never 71 00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:04.479 seen one of these things. I've had some experiences, certainly 72 00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:06.719 as recently as just a couple of days ago, and 73 00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:08.360 we could certainly get into that if you want to, 74 00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:11.560 but having a close up encounter with one of these 75 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:14.719 things that comes to mind as the scariest to me. 76 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.480 One of them was Jeff from Pine Island Research. He 77 00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.439 has his own show on YouTube. We've co hosted together 78 00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:22.160 a couple of times and done some things over on 79 00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:24.759 the un Told Radio Network with Doug Hycheck and those guys. 80 00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:28.560 Jeff had a really scary encounter that I would consider 81 00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:30.639 to be scary when he was a kid. I think 82 00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:32.560 it was a teenager. He's out on a boat with 83 00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:34.959 I think it was his cousin, a couple of friends 84 00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:37.680 or whatever. They stop at this island and they get 85 00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:40.120 off to go to the bathroom. He goes up this 86 00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:43.120 trail and he gets to this area where there's really 87 00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:45.480 nowhere for him to go. It's either left or right 88 00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:49.079 and embankment, and straight ahead of him is the sasquatch. 89 00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:53.000 Steps out of nowhere. This thing is holding I think 90 00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:56.439 Jeff described it as maybe a six or eight inch round, 91 00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:59.360 not huge. It was like a log. This thing is 92 00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:02.199 holding in its and it chunks it at Jeff and 93 00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:05.120 knocks him off of his feet. It's the only time 94 00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:09.040 I've ever documented, frankly, that I've ever heard of, really 95 00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.680 of a physical encounter with a sasquatch, other than maybe 96 00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:14.839 some of the older stories where people have been picked 97 00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:17.560 up and taken away and those kind of things. But 98 00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:20.800 it was scary to me because I'm thinking, this thing 99 00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:23.759 chunked a log and knocks you off of your feet. 100 00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:26.680 That's pretty scary. Jeff was like, I don't think this 101 00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:28.759 thing did it on purpose. I think it was just 102 00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:32.360 a surprise thing, because I think in his mind he said, 103 00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:37.040 I probably surprised this thing as much as it surprised me. 104 00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.319 He wasn't expecting me to be there, so it chunked 105 00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:42.000 this log at him and knocked him off of his feet. 106 00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:44.759 That was pretty scary to me. There's been others in 107 00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.240 the past where these things are looking in the windows 108 00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:53.000 of houses. That's a pretty scary thing to me. That's 109 00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:55.800 an eerie kind of thing. It could just be a curiosity, 110 00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.480 but there's part of me that believes that. I certainly 111 00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:03.439 don't believe every bigfoot is some nefarious monster that's out 112 00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:07.560 for blood and guts, but I do think these are animals, right. 113 00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:11.319 There's animalistic behavior there, just looking in kids windows and 114 00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:13.680 things like that. I've documented a couple of encounters where 115 00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:17.800 it's happened earlier on in life. I think there was 116 00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:20.240 one woman I interviewed that she was probably six or 117 00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:22.680 seven years old, and this thing was constantly looking in 118 00:06:22.759 --> 00:06:25.319 her window. That was a really scary thing to me 119 00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:28.800 because I automatically got this feeling, And of course it's subjective. 120 00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:30.319 I have no idea if this is real or not. 121 00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:32.920 But my feeling about her story and she felt the 122 00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:35.399 same way, was it was a female. She thought this 123 00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:38.639 thing was a female that was possibly looking to take 124 00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:42.279 her into the woods as its own or whatever the 125 00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:45.879 needs may be. So that's a pretty scary thing. There's 126 00:06:45.879 --> 00:06:49.279 been other situations. I had a hunter. This was either 127 00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:52.399 earlier this year or late last year. I interviewed a 128 00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:55.160 guy who was out moose or elk hunting with his 129 00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:57.759 dad out in the Pacific Northwest area. It was a 130 00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:01.120 really long drawn out story. The gest of it is 131 00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.639 he feels like he was being lured in by wood knocks. 132 00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:06.560 He's out with his dad. His dad's in a different area. 133 00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:09.399 He goes to his area and he's hunting, and here's 134 00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:11.959 the strange wood knocks and he never heard anything like 135 00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.000 that before in the woods. So he's heading towards the 136 00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:16.759 area where he's here in this knock, and every time 137 00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:20.120 he would stop to listen, he would get more knocks 138 00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:22.240 and it would make him go forward. He would go 139 00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:25.279 towards the knox, and when he stopped, it would knock again. 140 00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:28.040 This went on. I mean, his entire episode is probably 141 00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:29.879 one of the longest episodes of Sasquatch Out to See. 142 00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:31.000 It was a little over an hour and a half. 143 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.360 I think because he was very detailed with everything that 144 00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:37.720 went on during his experience. It just culminated into Eventually, 145 00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:39.680 he got to a point where he was twenty twenty 146 00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.360 five feet away from this row of trees, and this 147 00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:45.759 huge sasquatch steps out in front of him. He's got 148 00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:48.600 a high powered rifle. He's moose elk hunting right. I 149 00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:50.240 can't remember which it was, but he had a really 150 00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:52.600 high powered rifle. He said, Brian, this thing was not 151 00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:54.439 big enough for me to take this thing down. I 152 00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:56.720 felt like I might as well have been carrying a 153 00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:00.800 sling shot. Basically, he couldn't shoot. He backed out and 154 00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:02.439 got away from this thing. The couple of things that 155 00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.360 really stuck out to me that were really profound. Maybe 156 00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:08.000 not as scary as they were profound for me. He 157 00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:10.639 really broke down because this was like day one of 158 00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:13.480 a seven or eight day hunting trip, and he didn't 159 00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:16.439 tell his dad what happened. They'd get up to go hunting. 160 00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:19.240 Every morning after that he would go sit in the 161 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.800 truck and his dad would go hunting. Because he was 162 00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:24.519 scared to go back into the woods. That really tore 163 00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:27.720 him up for a lot of years. He ended up drinking. 164 00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:29.920 He told me. He said, I tried to buried it 165 00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:32.320 in the bottom of a bottle. For years because it 166 00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:34.320 really tore me up because I was putting my dad 167 00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:37.720 in a situation that I was afraid to tell him 168 00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:41.120 what I had seen for whatever reason ridicule. He wouldn't 169 00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:43.240 believe me. But it really aided him that he was 170 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:45.720 sending his dad out potentially to meet the same thing 171 00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:48.039 that he had come face to face with that he 172 00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:50.000 felt was luring him in. And that's the thing he 173 00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:52.639 kept going back to. He said, I really got the 174 00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:55.759 feeling that this thing was luring me in to do 175 00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:59.039 something nefarious to me, and ultimately it didn't. He said, 176 00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:00.559 maybe it stepped out. So all that I had a 177 00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:03.639 rifle felt like it's just not worth it. This is 178 00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:06.679 a human He wasn't sure. Obviously, again it's all subjective. 179 00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:09.919 There's no way of really knowing. But that was one 180 00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:13.120 of the scarier experiences for me because I thought, how 181 00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:16.759 many times did that happen? How many hunters go missing 182 00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:20.639 while they're hunting, they're never seen again, or they end 183 00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:24.519 up dead under mysterious circumstances. So my mind started going 184 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:27.000 in all these different directions. It was a very popular episode. 185 00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:28.480 I got a lot of emails who said, I think 186 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:30.399 this guy's full of shit, there's no way of knowing 187 00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:32.720 that Bigfoot don't do that. Of course, you get those 188 00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:35.240 people that come out that know everything about bigfoot. Oh, 189 00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:37.159 they don't do that. They would never lure a hunter 190 00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:39.519 in with wood knocks because they don't do that. Whatever. 191 00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.000 So there was a lot that went into that. But 192 00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:45.159 it was a really scary experience for me because a 193 00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:47.639 he felt like he was being lured in be just 194 00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:51.320 the way it affected his life after that. He had 195 00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:54.840 told the story one other time to another podcaster, but 196 00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:56.919 he had only told parts of the story. He had 197 00:09:56.960 --> 00:09:59.320 never told everything from beginning to end. So he reached 198 00:09:59.320 --> 00:10:01.000 out to me and he said, look, I want to 199 00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.559 tell you my story. I want to tell it one time. 200 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:05.600 You're the person I'm going to tell it to, and 201 00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:07.519 then I'm done. I don't want anything to do with 202 00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:08.919 the big Foot. I don't go out in the woods 203 00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:10.559 looking for these things. I don't even want to talk 204 00:10:10.600 --> 00:10:13.360 about it anymore. That really stuck out to me because 205 00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:16.720 you and I were talking about this before we started recording. 206 00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.440 How many times do people have experiences that they don't 207 00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:22.000 share they think they're going to be ridiculed. Some people 208 00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:25.240 tell their own friends and family their own wives or 209 00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:27.840 husbands that they have experiences and they tell them that 210 00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:31.799 they're crazy. There's no way that exists. You didn't experience 211 00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:33.919 what you said your experience. He was definitely not one 212 00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:36.320 of the people who was looking for any kind of notoriety. 213 00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:40.600 I've even reached out to him subsequently. Matter of fact, 214 00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.200 Doug Hichik, those guys are working on Legend Meat Science too, 215 00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:47.200 this new documentary to go along with the first one 216 00:10:47.200 --> 00:10:50.360 they did, Yeah back in the what was mid nineties, 217 00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:53.840 late nineties, they're working around two of Legend Meet Science 218 00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:56.759 as we speak. Doug was looking for people that he 219 00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:00.679 wanted to do regression hypnotherapy on, to take them back 220 00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:02.720 to their experiences to see if it would work to 221 00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:06.200 pull out more details. This guy came to mind because 222 00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:08.039 he's not a Bigfoot guy. He's not out looking for 223 00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:10.399 Bigfoot every week, and that's what Doug was leaning towards. 224 00:11:10.440 --> 00:11:14.080 He wanted somebody who wasn't died in the wool drinking 225 00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:17.639 the Bigfoot kool aid every single day. He just wanted 226 00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:20.039 some Joe Schmoe that had seen something that he wasn't 227 00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:21.840 supposed to see. So this guy came to mind, and 228 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:23.559 I reached out to him, and he was like, I 229 00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:26.240 really appreciate you thinking of me, but I don't want 230 00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:29.720 to revisit that anymore. To me, that is one of 231 00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:33.840 the most credible things, or it adds an extra layer 232 00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:37.720 of credibility to somebody's story, because there's plenty of people 233 00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:39.000 that have been on my show in the past that 234 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.919 I've interviewed. I think you hear them on every podcast 235 00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:43.919 outside of yours. I hear them on my show, and 236 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:45.840 then I hear them on five or six other podcasts, 237 00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:47.600 And there's nothing wrong with that by any stretch of 238 00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:51.120 the imagination. I'm certainly not casting stones here, but when 239 00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:54.960 you're doing the rounds, there seems to be some level 240 00:11:55.039 --> 00:11:58.279 at least of wanting to share the story for whatever reason. 241 00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:01.360 But when it comes down to people who just don't 242 00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:04.039 want to share the story at all and you have 243 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:06.279 to pull it out of them, it just adds that 244 00:12:06.360 --> 00:12:08.639 extra layer of credibility. So that was one of the 245 00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:13.279 scariest and probably most credible experiences that I've documented, And 246 00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:15.759 of course there's others that come to mind. Abe Canyon 247 00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:19.159 is a pretty scary event that happened to those miners 248 00:12:19.240 --> 00:12:21.759 back in nineteen twenty four. But that's way back in 249 00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:25.399 the day, obviously, And Albert Osman, what is more scary 250 00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:28.559 than being scooped up and taken into the woods for 251 00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:30.679 three or four days by a sasquatch that you have 252 00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.600 to escape from. That's pretty scary. And there are the 253 00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:37.559 people who have claimed to have had similar experiences. Scary 254 00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:39.879 is the subjective thing. But those are some of the 255 00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:43.480 ones that automatically sticks out to me over the course 256 00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:46.240 of what I've done in the last four hundred and 257 00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:48.399 seventy some odd episodes. 258 00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:51.759 First off, congratulations on getting through that many, because I 259 00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:54.279 don't think people understand the amount of work that it 260 00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:56.080 takes to sit and do this kind of stuff. It's 261 00:12:56.080 --> 00:12:58.360 a lot of work, it's fun, and I don't take 262 00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:00.879 sitting in this chair talking to people by lightly because 263 00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:03.679 it's a big deal. But man, that's a really big deal. 264 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:06.080 So congratulations on that. I'm like you when I get 265 00:13:06.120 --> 00:13:08.799 those emails that they're like, hey, I had this happen 266 00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:09.679 to me, I'm. 267 00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:10.399 Looking for answers. 268 00:13:10.519 --> 00:13:12.679 I don't know if I want to share this. I'm 269 00:13:12.679 --> 00:13:14.600 a little worried to share this. Those are the ones 270 00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:17.080 that really piqued my interest because I'm like, why are 271 00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:18.879 you telling me? You know, if you don't want to 272 00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:21.120 share it, what are you gaining from this? Those are 273 00:13:21.159 --> 00:13:23.480 all very scary encounters. I think we could sit and 274 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:25.799 talk about that all night, because these are such a 275 00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:29.200 strange world. I had a gentleman come on from North Carolina. 276 00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:32.480 He had this encounter. He just couldn't figure out what 277 00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:34.480 to do with it. He was a very prominent banker 278 00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:36.559 in his town. He's listening. I have a lot to lose. 279 00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:38.919 I don't want to share my story, but I just 280 00:13:38.960 --> 00:13:40.600 would like to talk to somebody. If he ended up 281 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:42.519 coming on the show and talking about it and got 282 00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:44.039 a lot of answers in it helped him. But man, 283 00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:45.919 I think those are the ones that are like, there's 284 00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:47.639 a lot of credibility to that, and not that I'm 285 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:49.720 not there when people see these things, and I'm not 286 00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:51.799 here to prove or disprove anything. But man, there's just 287 00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:54.799 so many weird things out there. How has on your 288 00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:57.480 end of this stuff? Sit and listen to these encounters? 289 00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:58.600 How's that changed your life? 290 00:13:58.639 --> 00:13:58.799 Man? 291 00:13:58.840 --> 00:13:59.799 Do you go into the woods? 292 00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:00.159 You know? 293 00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:02.639 I think twice before going out. I will not go 294 00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:05.440 into the deep woods anymore. But man, how's that changed? 295 00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:06.639 You here in these encounters. 296 00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:09.919 Man, it has changed me in so many great ways. 297 00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:11.600 It is a full time job for me. It is 298 00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:14.039 the best thing I have ever done in my life. 299 00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:16.879 I've loved some of my past jobs, but this has 300 00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:19.480 been certainly the best decision I've ever made to do 301 00:14:19.559 --> 00:14:22.000 this full time. I've been doing it full time since 302 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:26.039 twenty twenty two, around February March of twenty twenty two, 303 00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:29.480 so that has certainly changed my life in great ways. 304 00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:33.960 But specifically talking to people, my own experiences that I've 305 00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:36.600 had have changed the way that I interact with the woods. 306 00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:38.919 We live in the deep woods. I have no choice. 307 00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:41.559 I'm literally sitting in the woods now inside my house. 308 00:14:42.120 --> 00:14:43.879 But it has changed the way that I used to 309 00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:47.480 take night walks on occasion here on our property. We've 310 00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:51.159 heard vocalizations and I've experienced things here that I don't 311 00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:54.519 do that anymore. We've camped out and had some weird 312 00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:57.600 experiences a couple of months ago here on the property 313 00:14:57.679 --> 00:15:03.519 talking to people, and realize that there is the possibility 314 00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:06.399 that something is out there that is much larger and 315 00:15:06.559 --> 00:15:09.720 very dangerous. Honestly, I just be honest. I think these 316 00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:13.120 things can be very dangerous. It does change you, and 317 00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:16.000 it makes you think twice about just running off into 318 00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:19.440 the woods again. Like I said, my own experiences here 319 00:15:19.440 --> 00:15:21.720 in the vocalizations we've heard on the property. I found 320 00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:26.600 a trackway three days ago on the property here, and 321 00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:28.960 stay tuned for more sasquatch oat to see. We'll be 322 00:15:29.080 --> 00:15:35.320 right back after these messages. I haven't even talked about 323 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:36.919 it on my show. This is the second show that 324 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:39.240 I've guessed on in the last three days that I've 325 00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:40.799 talked about this, and I have already talked about it 326 00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:43.600 on my own show. But I found a trackway that's 327 00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:46.559 got like fourteen tracks. As I said here, it's about 328 00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:49.919 sixty yards from my house. It's weird when you find that. 329 00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:52.240 I'm a very skeptical person. Anybody who listens to my 330 00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:54.320 show knows I don't drink the Bigfoot kool aid. I 331 00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:58.200 am very skeptical of my own experiences and everybody else is. 332 00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:00.799 To be quite honest, I find find something that looks 333 00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:02.600 like a trackway, go oh, that's cool. It kind of 334 00:16:02.600 --> 00:16:05.279 looks like, oh shit, that is a footprint. Then the 335 00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:06.759 more I get into it and the more I look 336 00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:09.600 at it, I'm saying, there has got to be something 337 00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:12.360 to this. I actually went out today and did some 338 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:15.200 three D scans. We have a Facebook group big Foot 339 00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:18.279 Encounters and Field Research. On Facebook. When I post something, 340 00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:21.879 people always have suggestions, and somebody suggested, Hey, use this app. 341 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:25.799 It's like a LDAR three D scan thing. Because the 342 00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:29.120 footprints that I found were in leaf litter, I cast 343 00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:30.519 a couple of them. I only had a couple of 344 00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.320 pounds of material to cast with, so I picked the 345 00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:36.120 two best left and right that I could find in 346 00:16:36.159 --> 00:16:38.120 the fourteen I cast those and it turned out to 347 00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:41.399 be crap, which most of the cast do quite honestly 348 00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:44.519 from my experience. I went out and did some scanning 349 00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:46.960 of that today. I posted a little bit of that online. 350 00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:50.200 But it just changes you. Because I'm a very Okham's 351 00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:53.440 Razor kind of guy. I go to whatever the most 352 00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:57.919 likely explanation is the explanation for what I experience. But 353 00:16:58.000 --> 00:16:59.759 when you see something like that that I know I 354 00:16:59.799 --> 00:17:02.200 did do, I know my better half didn't do. I 355 00:17:02.200 --> 00:17:04.079 know the dogs didn't do it. It's not a bear. 356 00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:09.559 There's five feet in most cases between these steps of 357 00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:13.359 these prints that looked like sixteen inch foot prints. What 358 00:17:13.480 --> 00:17:15.920 else could that be? You get to this point where 359 00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:18.839 I'm very skeptical, but I'm almost skeptical to a fault. 360 00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:20.440 As a matter of fact, I was remastering one of 361 00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:23.480 my earlier episodes today that I'm going to put out 362 00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:26.920 on Wednesday as we record this. It was episode sixteen 363 00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:28.920 or seventeen on the show. I'm trying to go back 364 00:17:28.920 --> 00:17:31.279 and remaster some of those because I've learned a lot 365 00:17:31.279 --> 00:17:33.400 about audio, and I make things sound a whole lot 366 00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:35.960 better now that I did back in the first twenty 367 00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:38.279 or thirty episodes. That's one of the things that Guy 368 00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:41.240 talked about was how skeptical he was before he ended 369 00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:44.240 up going on a BFRO investigation and having a ton 370 00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:47.119 of experience. He didn't see Bigfoot. He saw some eyeshine 371 00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:50.240 that he thinks might be attributable to Bigfoot, but he 372 00:17:50.319 --> 00:17:53.240 was very skeptical. He's a scientific guy. I couldn't remember 373 00:17:53.319 --> 00:17:55.279 what his profession was, but he did a lot with 374 00:17:55.359 --> 00:17:58.079 snakes and amphibians. He would go out and look for 375 00:17:58.160 --> 00:17:59.440 endangered snake species. 376 00:17:59.559 --> 00:17:59.759 He was. 377 00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:04.400 And everything that happened to him. He's constantly trying to science. 378 00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:06.640 Guy it right, He's in the woods, going what could 379 00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:09.359 that be? Eventually he got to the point where I 380 00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:11.880 think I'm hear in a bigfoot, these vocalizations, they have 381 00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:14.519 to be a bigfoot. I do that to myself often. 382 00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:15.799 I think a lot of people do that, and I 383 00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:19.319 think it's a healthy way to look at this. But 384 00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:22.240 you get to a point where at least I'm at 385 00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:24.240 least to that point now, and people who listen to 386 00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:26.559 the show they get tired. I get emails about me saying, 387 00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:29.160 five days out of seven, I think Bigfoot's real, and 388 00:18:29.200 --> 00:18:31.720 the other two I'm not so sure. But that's really 389 00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:36.240 the truth. I'm starting to move closer to there's got 390 00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:38.319 to be something out there. I haven't seen one again. 391 00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:40.720 Until I do, I can't be one hundred percent all in. 392 00:18:40.920 --> 00:18:43.799 But when I find what looks like a trackway with 393 00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:48.319 five foot strides between what looks like a left foot 394 00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:50.559 and a right foot, I'm casting something that looks like 395 00:18:50.599 --> 00:18:52.960 it's got toes, And I do a three D scan 396 00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:55.920 that looks like it has toes. What else could it be? 397 00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:56.920 It's not a person. 398 00:18:57.079 --> 00:18:58.759 What are you supposed to do with that? That's the 399 00:18:58.799 --> 00:19:00.720 thing I don't know about you. A lot of times 400 00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:02.960 walk away with more questions than answers. And we're both 401 00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:05.319
