00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: If you've had a bigfoot siding it would like to

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,000
be a guest, Please go to bigfoote witness dot com

3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:06,839
and let me know.

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:12,679
Speaker 2: Hello. My name is Mike Aguilar and I'm Christina Lawhorn

5
00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:20,760
and we are the founders of squatchin fl in central Florida,

6
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,920
actually just outside of Brooksville, Florida, and we have been

7
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:31,519
actively doing field research. I have been since twenty seventeen.

8
00:00:33,039 --> 00:00:35,520
I had a class a sighting that changed my whole

9
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,679
life in Homo Stass of Florida. Back in twenty seventeen.

10
00:00:38,759 --> 00:00:42,679
I was going fishing and this big cinnamon guy decided

11
00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:45,399
to walk in front of me and changed my own

12
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,600
entire life. And I jumped in the rabbit hole and

13
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:55,240
started doing research. And I was with a research group

14
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,880
for quite a few years and decided that it was

15
00:01:00,079 --> 00:01:04,000
time to go into my own way. And that's why

16
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,439
we came up with Squatching fl which is really bringing

17
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:13,040
our children into it. And we've got many years of

18
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,799
going out in the field doing different things in Florida,

19
00:01:15,879 --> 00:01:18,359
with so many different encounters I can't wait to tell

20
00:01:18,799 --> 00:01:21,719
you guys about We've got a lot of them, some

21
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,879
of them hard to believe, but I probably wouldn't believe

22
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,000
it unless it happened to me. But they did, and Christina,

23
00:01:27,519 --> 00:01:29,599
we will to tell them how you got into this. Yep.

24
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:34,159
Speaker 3: Well, one night we were out and he was just

25
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,959
talking to me. We met at a bar through a

26
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:42,159
mutual friend and I was recently you know, separated and everything,

27
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,799
so I had no interest in talking to anybody, so

28
00:01:45,079 --> 00:01:47,560
just kind of fluffed them off. Whatever, just talk to

29
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,079
some guy at the bar. And then he finds me

30
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,159
on Facebook and sends me a message begging me to

31
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,920
go out for his birthday. He wants to take me fishing,

32
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,400
do all this and that, and I was just telling

33
00:01:57,439 --> 00:02:02,840
it whatever. And so then one night I was like,

34
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:05,359
you know what, whatever, why don't I just invite him over,

35
00:02:06,239 --> 00:02:07,400
hang out, watch a movie.

36
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:08,479
Speaker 2: Whatever.

37
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,719
Speaker 3: So we're just get to chatting and hang out watching

38
00:02:11,719 --> 00:02:15,000
a movie, and then uh, it was about time for

39
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,319
him to go, and he's like, you know, I probably

40
00:02:18,319 --> 00:02:20,719
should uh tell you about this other part of my life.

41
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,439
I was like, oh my gosh, looking at him, and

42
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,840
my mind's racing. I just there's so many things that

43
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,400
went through my mind. And uh so then he goes, well,

44
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,000
you know, I look for Bigfoot, and I was like

45
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,759
what you do you do what Bigfoot?

46
00:02:42,159 --> 00:02:42,439
Speaker 4: Oh?

47
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,479
Speaker 3: Okay, I can handle that, because you know, I thought like, oh,

48
00:02:45,759 --> 00:02:49,599
you know, Mary, maybe he's married or I was like,

49
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,120
I don't know. There were so many things a serial killer.

50
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 2: It was like like the best part there was like

51
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,800
she didn't really know one hundred percent when I met,

52
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,919
and like then she had to like go and Facebook

53
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,280
stalked me a little bit and see like and then

54
00:03:03,319 --> 00:03:06,000
she went and saw podcasts and different videos I've been

55
00:03:06,039 --> 00:03:09,000
on and she's like like, holy cow, like you really

56
00:03:09,199 --> 00:03:10,039
look for bigfoot?

57
00:03:12,479 --> 00:03:15,319
Speaker 3: So and you know, I just love being outdoors. I

58
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,879
love nature. I grew up a little bit of a

59
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,159
background with my mom with some Native American stuff, and

60
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,319
we had like a sweat lodge and in our yard

61
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,159
at one time, and UH went to many pow wows

62
00:03:30,199 --> 00:03:32,800
and all sorts of different things that she kind of

63
00:03:34,759 --> 00:03:37,039
drugged me through, I would say, as a teenager. But

64
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,039
now I look back and I thank her very much.

65
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,360
But so anyway, I've always loved the outdoors and animals

66
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,639
and everything else. So when he would ask me to

67
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,400
go out and look for bigfoot and signs and everything else,

68
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,280
for me, it was just you know, getting out of

69
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:58,120
the house, getting back into nature and just enjoying it.

70
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: It was really nice, like I knew. I knew after

71
00:04:00,759 --> 00:04:03,960
only taking her a few times that I had met

72
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,199
a really good partner. And you know, and then eventually

73
00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:12,439
she has two beautiful children that I look at as

74
00:04:13,159 --> 00:04:16,240
my kids now, and I have two beautiful children who

75
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,360
had Our children were totally different spectrums, though there was

76
00:04:21,319 --> 00:04:25,720
hers were they played softball and stuff like that, but

77
00:04:25,759 --> 00:04:28,759
they weren't in the woods kids. My kids were like

78
00:04:29,399 --> 00:04:33,199
go fishing in the woods type of kids. So it

79
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,240
was really cool to watch them two come together, and

80
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,120
it made for a lot of unique fun experiences. Some

81
00:04:41,399 --> 00:04:44,839
things we had to overcome, but they now it's awesome,

82
00:04:44,879 --> 00:04:48,079
like they learned from each other and it's amazing a

83
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,079
lot of firsts.

84
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 3: My kids got to catch the first fish, yes down

85
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,920
in the Everglades, and you know, just kind of all

86
00:04:55,959 --> 00:04:58,639
those little fearful things that were put into their head

87
00:04:58,879 --> 00:05:01,199
about watch out for this, o for that, you know,

88
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:06,000
but now it's like get outdoors, like learn it, experience it,

89
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,560
use that knowledge.

90
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,439
Speaker 2: We started the squatching fl thing. Like I said, I've

91
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,920
been doing the research for a while. I've had awesome

92
00:05:14,959 --> 00:05:19,680
experiences that I get to talk about. But this was

93
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,959
like a new adventure that we're starting, and we started

94
00:05:22,959 --> 00:05:25,600
it because we've been doing videos. I have a YouTube

95
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:29,560
channel also, same thing. Everything's SQUATCHINGNFL and we're really just

96
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,600
getting it kicked off, but it's really starting to come bigger.

97
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,079
Facebook's the same way. My Facebook page is the biggest

98
00:05:36,399 --> 00:05:40,560
and our group is growing same thing, squatchingn FL, and

99
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,639
we were really we want to grow a community that's

100
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,480
not just Bigfoot though. We want to be different. We

101
00:05:49,519 --> 00:05:52,000
want to be able to have kids come and do things,

102
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,920
go hunting, fishing, that's like our group. We want people

103
00:05:54,959 --> 00:05:56,680
to show, hey, we went fishing this weekend. Look what

104
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,399
we did. We went fishing while we were squatching, which

105
00:06:00,759 --> 00:06:03,199
is a brilliant way to have an accident all encounter

106
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,279
if you've never thought about that. We take kids with

107
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,639
us into the woods and the kids are the bait.

108
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,879
And I mean that in the greatest way. But kids

109
00:06:13,879 --> 00:06:18,279
are loud, kids are making laughing, screaming, hollering. They do

110
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,839
nothing but draw attention. And that's We've had so many

111
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,800
things happen because of that and the good things. You've

112
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,160
never had anything negative happen. One time when we've been

113
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,879
in the woods with our kids. We've gone camping, I

114
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,319
don't know how many times, down to the Everglades, to

115
00:06:33,399 --> 00:06:38,480
David Sheeley's place in the Everglades. We love that. We

116
00:06:38,519 --> 00:06:42,000
go all over the state. So now that we've told

117
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,279
you you know a little bit about us and our family,

118
00:06:45,399 --> 00:06:47,680
hopefully you guys can go on and check it out

119
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,560
and you can see that getting to meet all the

120
00:06:49,639 --> 00:06:52,959
kids as well. We got Kaylin is the oldest, my

121
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,680
oldest son, and he's the one that's gone out with

122
00:06:54,680 --> 00:07:00,360
me the most. And Kylie, my little girl, she's seven,

123
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,240
about to turn eight, and she is next in line.

124
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,800
She's no longer being held back. She's like, nope, Dad,

125
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,800
you're coming out with me. You'll see her on videos now.

126
00:07:09,199 --> 00:07:11,199
She's loving it. She's the cutest little thing. When she

127
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,040
goes out there, she talks to Bigfoot and gives them gifts.

128
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:19,000
And then there's Kate and Jesse. And Kate is ten

129
00:07:19,839 --> 00:07:25,560
and Jesse is eight, and they're both They are in training,

130
00:07:25,879 --> 00:07:27,480
is how I put it. They're in training. They're coming up.

131
00:07:27,519 --> 00:07:28,879
You're gonna start seeing a lot more of them on

132
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,040
the videos. They do a lot of They love camping

133
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,600
and everything and we're just getting them into it. But

134
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:38,639
that being said, we've had some really cool things happen

135
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,399
over the last few years, me and Christina by ourselves.

136
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:48,000
The first real experience we had together was probably down

137
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,000
in the Everglades for Bear Island. We stay to David's

138
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,879
place and we had a kid free weekend and we

139
00:07:55,959 --> 00:07:58,759
went for an adventure down there and went out by

140
00:07:58,759 --> 00:08:02,439
ourselves to Bear Island. And we were walking in Bear

141
00:08:02,519 --> 00:08:06,639
Island and when you're out there, it is an hour

142
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,399
ride straight down a dirt road to the middle of

143
00:08:10,439 --> 00:08:15,920
the Everglades. There's absolutely nothing there but sawgrass and hammocks

144
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:21,439
and little dry spots. And we parked at the one

145
00:08:21,439 --> 00:08:23,920
little parking area there is. There's a little campground back there,

146
00:08:23,959 --> 00:08:26,759
but nobody was there. And we got out and we

147
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,000
started following a little trail that went back, and that

148
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,639
trail led to another one. Next thing you know, we're

149
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:35,639
forty five minutes in middle of nowhere walking and this

150
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,519
is really really one of the first times I realized

151
00:08:37,519 --> 00:08:39,440
how much I love this woman and that she's going

152
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:41,200
to be the one that's going to be with me.

153
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,279
Because we are in the Everglades. Okay, the Everglades isn't

154
00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:50,360
like taking a stroll through a normal trail. You've got

155
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:55,960
moccasins everywhere and everywhere and alligators. If you see grass

156
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,399
and it looks like grass, there's water under it. Everywhere

157
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,840
there's always water. So we're walking and then we have

158
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,480
snake boots on. But we're walking and it gets almost

159
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,799
knee deep, like really quick, and she's not even backing down.

160
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,399
I'm like this, there's no way she's gonna keep on

161
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,919
going with me. She does. She just keeps on going.

162
00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:15,840
We're looking at all the beautiful orchids and airplants and everything.

163
00:09:15,879 --> 00:09:19,240
And I remember this hawk that just kept going off,

164
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,679
and I'm like, this hawk is giving us away right now,

165
00:09:22,919 --> 00:09:25,240
he's telling where we were at. Just oh, just keeps

166
00:09:25,279 --> 00:09:29,879
on like going off. We walk into this little hammock area.

167
00:09:30,159 --> 00:09:32,639
A hammock is where it's like you'll have water all

168
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,200
around you. And then it goes to like these little

169
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,799
dry areas a little bit and we go walking into

170
00:09:36,799 --> 00:09:41,200
one of these like like cypress hammocks, and Christina's like

171
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,360
youar that, like we're talking about, Yeah.

172
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:48,039
Speaker 3: We're walking through there, you know, knee deep and uh

173
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,440
so I always just kind of hanging back I let

174
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,120
him walk up front, and I just kind of like,

175
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,360
you know, fall long, look around and see stuff whatever.

176
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,200
So as he's walked and I kept, you know, like

177
00:09:59,279 --> 00:10:01,960
you said, the hawk, it just kept going off and

178
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,120
going off, and uh, it's like it was telling them

179
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:07,080
that were there.

180
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 2: It was.

181
00:10:08,039 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 3: It was just the weirdest thing. So We're walking back there,

182
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:17,879
and I kept hearing things from like back behind me,

183
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,840
like directly behind me, like to my left, to the side,

184
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,240
to my right, to the side. I could hear like

185
00:10:26,919 --> 00:10:33,440
movement coming in like behind me, like something was walking

186
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:39,919
through this swampy water. Every time Mike would take a step,

187
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,519
I would hear it. So I would be like, hey, stop,

188
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:45,559
did you hear that?

189
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 2: Be Like, no, I couldn't hear nothing, because you know,

190
00:10:49,039 --> 00:10:50,799
when you're walking or you're going through the water, you're

191
00:10:50,879 --> 00:10:54,320
kind of slushing and you hear your own sounds. Like

192
00:10:54,399 --> 00:10:57,080
I couldn't hear it. Whatever it was was doing it

193
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,960
to my movements. And I've noticed that in the past

194
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,120
and other areas, like they seem to dial in on

195
00:11:05,639 --> 00:11:08,639
who the alpha of your group is, and then they

196
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,440
seem to mimic and walk when that one doesn't. So

197
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,480
that maybe I can't be alerted.

198
00:11:15,039 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 3: And like I said, I hang back probably what like

199
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,360
what would you say, like one hundred feet? I usually

200
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:22,279
walk behind you nifty.

201
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 2: Maybe depends you're brave, but you're not that brave. Come on,

202
00:11:26,159 --> 00:11:27,519
oh stop, You're.

203
00:11:27,399 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 3: Always like get up here, get up here, stops and

204
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,159
stop turniling so far behind. If something were to happen,

205
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:32,559
there's no.

206
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 2: Way I could save you.

207
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 3: And I'm like, well, whatever, like leave me be okay.

208
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,120
So you know, we just keep walking through and I

209
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,360
just kept like it just felt like they kept getting

210
00:11:43,399 --> 00:11:47,440
closer and closer and closer, and he could not hear

211
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:52,240
it whatsoever. I don't know what it was. There's no saying,

212
00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:55,840
but like I said, it sounded like they were like

213
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,840
moving in forces, like almost in an army, like there

214
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:05,080
was a lot of them. It was just the strangest thing.

215
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,159
Speaker 2: I was getting all the feelings going off, and I

216
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,679
didn't want to scare her. But I am very sensitive

217
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,759
to energies and different things, like I feel thinks, I

218
00:12:15,759 --> 00:12:19,840
can feel when presences are around me. I'm adhd and

219
00:12:19,919 --> 00:12:22,559
I think with a narrow, divergent mind, like I think

220
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,559
there's something to it, and like you're able to pick

221
00:12:24,639 --> 00:12:26,519
up on things that other people aren't. Well, me and

222
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,559
Christina both are and it's like we can feel it,

223
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,720
and it's really cool having someone that can feel it

224
00:12:32,759 --> 00:12:35,320
with me now. But like I feel that, and like

225
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,279
I could feel it was going off. I just didn't

226
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,000
know she was feeling that, and I didn't want to

227
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,440
scare it. It was really our first real time out

228
00:12:42,799 --> 00:12:43,960
doing stuff like that together.

229
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 3: But then also while we were out there, we found

230
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:48,720
that footprint.

231
00:12:49,279 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, we found an.

232
00:12:50,919 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 5: Impression a barefoot completely barefoot print out in the middle

233
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,440
of the Everglades, which was not something that you would

234
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,240
expect unless there were you around, maybe some Native Americans,

235
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,840
but the Mikasuki Indians were not out there, not that

236
00:13:06,879 --> 00:13:07,240
I know of.

237
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 2: These were just a bare footprint that there was only one,

238
00:13:11,759 --> 00:13:13,799
which was odd. It was like off the edge of

239
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,720
the trail. It was like it made a misstep and

240
00:13:15,799 --> 00:13:19,759
went down deep and messed up. But it wasn't a

241
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:23,799
gigantic footprint. It was kind of a longer, more narrow footprint.

242
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,399
It was an odd looking footprint. I made a three

243
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,639
D scan of it, which also that's another thing is

244
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,000
I do a lot of three D scans on Scannerverse

245
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,919
and I'm gonna start making those a lot more available

246
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,360
to be seen. I'm gonna start doing one each week

247
00:13:38,399 --> 00:13:42,279
on squatchin fl on the research group. I'm gonna start

248
00:13:42,279 --> 00:13:44,120
making those where you can see those and you can

249
00:13:44,159 --> 00:13:47,320
look at it and go over them. So that pretty

250
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,200
much wraps up Bear Island. That was like the first

251
00:13:50,399 --> 00:13:54,559
real cool thing we got to experience together. That was

252
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,080
her first real experience like that. I have another area

253
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,879
that when I had talked to you before, Vick, I

254
00:14:00,879 --> 00:14:02,480
talked to you about the tree that got pushed over

255
00:14:02,519 --> 00:14:04,919
and got shaken at me and pushed over when I

256
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:09,840
was with my dog. And this this area has become

257
00:14:09,919 --> 00:14:13,559
an amazing area over the last few years. And this

258
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,679
last year we had two really cool things happened there.

259
00:14:17,519 --> 00:14:19,759
One was Christine I took in there and like the

260
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,240
I think it was like the first time I took

261
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:28,039
her in there. That's the seventy five the power line area. Yeah,

262
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,639
and remember that was your first that was your first

263
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,440
real footprint maybe seeing was that one? Yeah, Like that

264
00:14:34,519 --> 00:14:36,000
was the first one where she saw it was like,

265
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,320
holy cow, Yeah, that was a big one like that.

266
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,440
That's a that's a footprint in the middle of a swamp.

267
00:14:41,919 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 4: Like.

268
00:14:42,159 --> 00:14:43,799
Speaker 2: To get to this area, you've got to walk about

269
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:50,000
a mile through really tall, nasty grass and then through

270
00:14:50,799 --> 00:14:55,200
a big it's it's an old area where they they

271
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,320
they don't mow anymore because it's too wet, so they

272
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,399
can't mow back there. It's where power line is run

273
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,919
through and it's at the end of a creek that

274
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,679
I am affiliated with. Everything that I've done, all my

275
00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:11,039
research that i've everything i've done, all my encounters have

276
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,960
mostly come from this this creek. And this creek goes

277
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,480
for about twenty miles from Pasco County down to Hillsborough

278
00:15:17,519 --> 00:15:22,120
County in Florida. And this is towards the lower end

279
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,320
of that creek. But the creek is the life of it.

280
00:15:25,519 --> 00:15:28,240
And like I said, I had that tree. I've had

281
00:15:28,279 --> 00:15:30,720
some bad a couple of bad experiences back there, but

282
00:15:30,879 --> 00:15:34,879
I realized now they were my fault. But I took

283
00:15:34,879 --> 00:15:38,399
her back there and that was awesome to see that.

284
00:15:38,679 --> 00:15:41,000
I try to make a little gifting spot back there.

285
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,360
And then I kind of like forgot about that spot

286
00:15:43,399 --> 00:15:49,960
for a while and up until about about theirs about

287
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:55,399
three months ago. If you know RPG Ryan Golembeski RPG

288
00:15:56,039 --> 00:15:59,200
He's someone that has become a really good friend of ours.

289
00:15:59,679 --> 00:16:05,399
Ryan was on the first episode of Expedition Bigfoot and

290
00:16:05,679 --> 00:16:08,159
he was actually replaced by Ronnie LeBlanc because of health

291
00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:11,600
issues that he was going through. Very unfortunate because he

292
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,720
would have been such a great guy on the show.

293
00:16:14,399 --> 00:16:18,159
And well, we've become really really good friends. And he

294
00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:21,159
has four children and they become really good friends with

295
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,919
my kids, our kids, and we took them out there.

296
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,600
He's been wanting to do some filming we're doing. We're

297
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:32,679
working on a project called the Legend Seekers, Yes, legend

298
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:36,519
Seekers TV. It's it's a it's a YouTube channel and

299
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:42,120
Daniel Lee Barnett is the one that started it and

300
00:16:42,159 --> 00:16:44,519
we're working with them. They're over in the UK. It's

301
00:16:44,559 --> 00:16:48,960
a it's a big combined family from across the pond.

302
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,559
Daniel Barnett went through some things that my son went through,

303
00:16:52,559 --> 00:16:55,320
which is SELECTI mutism, and I'll go into that story

304
00:16:55,399 --> 00:16:59,519
another time. But anyway, we I got to take Ryan

305
00:16:59,559 --> 00:17:01,320
back there. The kids. We wanted to do some filming

306
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,320
for the show and I thought this is a great area.

307
00:17:03,399 --> 00:17:04,799
The kids are going to complain a little bit. It's

308
00:17:04,799 --> 00:17:06,640
a little bit of a walk, but it's a really

309
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,079
good area. And we get back there and we go

310
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,839
down by the creek and you got to picture. The

311
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,720
creek is about a mile from where we walk in,

312
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,519
and then each side of it is an area that's

313
00:17:19,799 --> 00:17:21,400
where the power line is running through, and then it's

314
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:26,680
cypress trees basically, and swamp in between that, so you

315
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,279
can be seen from each side. As we're walking down

316
00:17:29,279 --> 00:17:32,599
the middle of this area. It's it's supposed to be mode,

317
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,319
but it's not really mode anymore because it's too wet.

318
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,720
So we can be seen by everything. We can't hardly

319
00:17:38,759 --> 00:17:41,519
see anything, it's too thick. But we're sitting by the

320
00:17:41,519 --> 00:17:44,559
creek and my son goes, did you see that? And

321
00:17:44,599 --> 00:17:46,759
I'm like, I thought of this is something, And then

322
00:17:46,839 --> 00:17:49,720
Ryan's like, I thought I saw something too, and it

323
00:17:49,759 --> 00:17:51,880
was a palmetto like from on the other side of

324
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,359
the creek. Like the palmetto palm like moved and a

325
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,480
couple of seconds later, I swore I saw something dark,

326
00:17:57,559 --> 00:18:01,319
just a dark figure kind of like go down and

327
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,400
Ryan's like, same thing, I think I got. I swear

328
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,759
I saw something, but whatever, we go on doing our thing,

329
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,200
and we've got six kids with us, walking I'm sorry.

330
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:12,000
Five kids walking around with us, and we go walking

331
00:18:12,039 --> 00:18:15,039
back in. We cross over, and we go walking back in.

332
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,519
Now we're only about thirty yards coming in the back

333
00:18:18,559 --> 00:18:21,960
way to where I had one of my craziest experiences

334
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:26,079
and encounters where I found a betting area. And this

335
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,079
betting area was amazing. This is where I learned that

336
00:18:29,079 --> 00:18:31,720
these things are pushing trees over. I thought it was

337
00:18:31,759 --> 00:18:35,079
the wind at first, but I don't know if they're

338
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,960
pushing them over, if they're taking advantage of ones that

339
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,000
have been pushed over. But you know, when the wind

340
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,480
pushes a tree over, it leaves a root ball at

341
00:18:41,519 --> 00:18:45,599
an angle. And all the trees that I find like

342
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,079
this are always the same angle and just enough, and

343
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,279
they're always And we got back there that this were

344
00:18:51,319 --> 00:18:54,119
actually dug out underneath them, and on each side of

345
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,400
these they were supported by like different pieces of wood

346
00:18:58,559 --> 00:19:02,160
like tree that were stripped bare, and they were supported

347
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,640
on each side like to keep it from being able

348
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,960
to fall. And underneath it was dug out. They were beds.

349
00:19:07,839 --> 00:19:11,119
And I actually when my dog got too close to

350
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,240
something and shook the tree pushed it over at me.

351
00:19:14,519 --> 00:19:17,400
Was a little bit of a terrifying experience, but I

352
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,759
learned from it. Like I said, we were only thirty

353
00:19:19,839 --> 00:19:25,759
yards coming in the back entrance to that spot. The

354
00:19:25,839 --> 00:19:28,240
kids and I were with Ryan kind of going off

355
00:19:28,279 --> 00:19:30,039
to the right. My son likes to do his own

356
00:19:30,079 --> 00:19:31,839
thing a little bit, and he kind of looks off

357
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,240
to the left and he's over there farther. He's about

358
00:19:34,279 --> 00:19:37,480
twenty yards away from me, walking and he makes a sound.

359
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,200
Well there was a little like clump of trees, and

360
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,119
I guess he came walking up and we didn't realize

361
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,680
we were being watched. And I mean I knew we were.

362
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,480
We were always being watched in there, one hundred percent.

363
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:54,319
There's a family group back here and we go. I

364
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,759
hear him make a sound, and I'm like, what's wrong, okay?

365
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,279
And he didn't say nothing. So I go walking over

366
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,119
to him real quick. I get up to him and

367
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:06,119
he's crying, and I'm like, are you okay? And he's like,

368
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,640
I just saw one, Dad, And I'm like, like, there

369
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,599
was the most real, heartfelt tears coming out. Like it

370
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,799
wasn't sad tears. It was like he was happy tears

371
00:20:18,839 --> 00:20:21,359
because he had seen things before, but this was like

372
00:20:21,519 --> 00:20:23,440
he saw it. He said it was eight foot tall,

373
00:20:23,519 --> 00:20:27,519
four foot wide, and it was there, dark black went

374
00:20:27,599 --> 00:20:30,160
down and he saw him.

375
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 3: Why don't we bring him in so he can tell

376
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:33,839
his part of the story.

377
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 2: Can we do that?

378
00:20:35,839 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: Please?

379
00:20:36,279 --> 00:20:42,319
Speaker 2: Do all right? So I looked over at k and

380
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,480
because I had heard him, made a funny sound, and

381
00:20:44,519 --> 00:20:45,839
I kind of hurried up to try and get over

382
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,240
to him. And like I said, he was, He's sitting

383
00:20:48,279 --> 00:20:50,599
there crying and what happened?

384
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:55,759
Speaker 4: Ka. So basically, so the whole group, my dad, RBG

385
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,319
and his kids and Kylie walked a totally different way.

386
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,039
I there was kind of like a tree here, and

387
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,960
I walked around the tree and went the total different way.

388
00:21:06,519 --> 00:21:09,960
And I was sitting there and I saw this thing

389
00:21:10,079 --> 00:21:12,400
just staring at me. In the second I looked over

390
00:21:12,559 --> 00:21:15,200
squatted down super quick, and I could barely get a

391
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,680
good look at it, but I could tell it was tall,

392
00:21:17,759 --> 00:21:22,279
wide and black, and I just couldn't control my emotions

393
00:21:22,279 --> 00:21:23,279
and just started crying.

394
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,640
Speaker 2: It was weird. What do you think it was? Because

395
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,920
it was like it was like, oh my god, like

396
00:21:29,079 --> 00:21:32,160
so cool, like that's real. I really just saw this

397
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,359
giant thing. Yeah, because when you when you told me,

398
00:21:35,839 --> 00:21:38,200
like you were a little more clear on what you saw,

399
00:21:38,799 --> 00:21:40,599
and you were like, I saw him. He was four

400
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:45,240
foot wide black. I got it on video which he

401
00:21:45,319 --> 00:21:46,359
had you've been like at.

402
00:21:46,279 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 4: Least three ft wide.

403
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:53,079
Speaker 2: He was huge. And this happened, like I said, thirty

404
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:57,480
yards away from like the area that I had already

405
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:02,480
had things happen at. And then we're walking and Kylie

406
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,079
was with Sky, which is RPG's kid, and what did

407
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:07,799
you guys see?

408
00:22:08,279 --> 00:22:11,599
Speaker 4: Oh, we saw like we were like looking on in

409
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,960
the woods and we just saw a brown figure thing.

410
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:19,640
Speaker 2: I remember when that happened because you got to understand

411
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,880
where we're at. It's basically like being in the middle

412
00:22:23,079 --> 00:22:28,359
of their town and we're new walking in Like we

413
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,079
felt like we thought that we were being watched from everywhere.

414
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, right after I was just staring off into the

415
00:22:33,559 --> 00:22:36,039
woodard Sky and then me and Sky were like I

416
00:22:36,079 --> 00:22:38,599
saw it. We both saw like a brown figure thing.

417
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 2: They saw something. It was like between the tree right.

418
00:22:41,519 --> 00:22:44,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was like just walking and stuff like you

419
00:22:44,599 --> 00:22:47,240
saw walking away. We saw it. Just we saw something

420
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,720
just like sprinting away. Yeah, And if you think about it,

421
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,000
most of the time as we walk off, but it

422
00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:58,240
wasn't sprinting. It was actually important like going two steps

423
00:22:58,279 --> 00:23:00,680
and then it was gone, Okay. Most of the time,

424
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,640
you so as you start walking, you'll start hearing things

425
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,160
crunch behind you and they keep walking in on you.

426
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:16,079
And whenever they do that, you like, what if that

427
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,240
was the one I saw and he was following us,

428
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,920
he was super he could have been super interesting. Yeah,

429
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:25,799
it was interested, like at what y'all were doing. So

430
00:23:26,079 --> 00:23:28,720
and then like it was like brownish blackish, kind of

431
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,079
like brown like black spots and the rest was like brown.

432
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Well we didn't have a whole lot

433
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,319
more happened that day. I know, we found some other stuff,

434
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:46,599
but that was Yeah, that's right, that's right. You can

435
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,039
feel free to talk about men. You can talk to

436
00:23:48,039 --> 00:23:49,759
me and tell me because I don't remember everything perfect,

437
00:23:49,759 --> 00:23:53,559
but I do remember that Ryan. We were as we

438
00:23:53,559 --> 00:23:56,160
were leaving the last thing, like we're there's a little

439
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,200
trail that leads us out, and he did like a

440
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,279
final look in and he just stopped and I almost

441
00:24:00,319 --> 00:24:02,480
ran into him because he stopped and I and then

442
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,440
he backed up and he looked over and I'm like,

443
00:24:05,559 --> 00:24:07,160
you saw a dark figure back there, didn't you, And

444
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:12,400
He's like, I sure did. I just it's almost incredible

445
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,680
how much happens back here in this area. And they're

446
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,720
not shy. They're not shy back here. It's not like

447
00:24:18,759 --> 00:24:20,920
they're coming out and like, hey, look, I'm here. But

448
00:24:21,759 --> 00:24:23,960
I used to go by myself in this area, and

449
00:24:24,279 --> 00:24:26,559
there were a couple of times where I had seen

450
00:24:26,599 --> 00:24:29,559
them on film on the camera. I've got this. I've

451
00:24:29,559 --> 00:24:32,039
got these cameras films from seventy five yards up ahead

452
00:24:32,039 --> 00:24:34,480
of me in the middle of the palmetto palms. You

453
00:24:34,519 --> 00:24:37,119
see these little things peeking their heads up, and they're

454
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,799
not that little, it's just they're far away and you

455
00:24:38,799 --> 00:24:41,880
can see them. I've got other videos that I've actually

456
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,920
posted on all my platforms, and two of them are

457
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,799
very detailed, and they're all from this area where you

458
00:24:49,839 --> 00:24:52,599
can one a time I saw something at least seven

459
00:24:52,599 --> 00:24:55,440
foot tall between a y in the middle of a tree,

460
00:24:55,559 --> 00:24:57,759
just sitting there watching me. And if you really zoom

461
00:24:57,759 --> 00:25:00,720
in on the video, like you can see this thing

462
00:25:00,839 --> 00:25:04,440
has white under its chin, and it's just sitting there

463
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,079
like I caught it in my prefer roal and like

464
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,240
I could turn my phone towards it, but I was

465
00:25:09,279 --> 00:25:11,640
looking the other way, acting like I wasn't looking at it,

466
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,039
watching it, and then like I kind of like glared

467
00:25:14,039 --> 00:25:15,400
at it and I would zoom in a little bit

468
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,559
and I could see I went back and really looked

469
00:25:17,559 --> 00:25:19,440
at it, and it was like, holy cow, it's just

470
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,240
standing there watching me. Well, that day I went a

471
00:25:22,279 --> 00:25:24,279
little farther. I went back and looked at my video.

472
00:25:24,319 --> 00:25:27,519
I caught him again on another spot, another tree, the

473
00:25:27,599 --> 00:25:31,559
same figure. It looked almost like a gorilla standing up

474
00:25:31,799 --> 00:25:34,559
with like almost like a gorilla face, and he had

475
00:25:34,599 --> 00:25:37,759
white under its chin. It was really really cool. It

476
00:25:37,839 --> 00:25:42,200
was awesome actually, But since I got the kids in here,

477
00:25:43,079 --> 00:25:46,720
I can tell you about something that was real. Quickly,

478
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,920
we moved out to an area not that long ago.

479
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,839
We are now in Brooksville, Florida, and we started going

480
00:25:54,839 --> 00:25:59,079
into an area where we had I've had some really

481
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,640
cool things. We met another member of our team named

482
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,640
Mike Noga. He introduced us to this area that he

483
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,640
had a class a sighting at by a cemetery, and

484
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:10,839
I started looking at it there and he showed me

485
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,799
another area he had and I'm like, well, what's in

486
00:26:12,839 --> 00:26:15,240
the middle, And I realized what was in the middle

487
00:26:15,559 --> 00:26:18,960
was an old mining area where they had eighteen hundreds.

488
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,640
They mined through here, and there's cave systems like all

489
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,319
over in there, which you don't ever think about Florida

490
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,960
having caves. This area has like caves back there all

491
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,880
over the place. And some of these areas you're walking

492
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,640
and it's like for Florida to go up a hill

493
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,319
and then come down sixty foot eighty one hundred foot

494
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,519
is huge for Florida. And these go into like little

495
00:26:42,559 --> 00:26:45,359
caverns and like there's caves in them. Well a couple

496
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,559
of them are. Actually the FWC has fenced off. For

497
00:26:48,839 --> 00:26:51,480
whatever reason, they're fenced off. They say it's for to

498
00:26:51,559 --> 00:26:54,680
keep people safe. You can't drive back here. You have

499
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,599
to hike. It's like a four mile hike to get

500
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,599
back to where the caves are. So now I don't

501
00:26:58,799 --> 00:27:01,839
there's not many people back there, but the fences are,

502
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:06,440
but they're all fenced off. Well, one of the coolest

503
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:11,000
things that ever happened happened with me and Christina. I'm

504
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,519
gonna get you back in here with me real quick.

505
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:18,680
We had a crazy three day Class A two Class

506
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,000
A sightings in three days in this area and the

507
00:27:22,079 --> 00:27:27,839
first one was we decided last minute, me Christina on

508
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,200
a Friday night, were like it was just us. We

509
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,880
didn't have my kids. My kids were at their moms,

510
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,519
and we're like, let's just go for a jeep ride.

511
00:27:35,839 --> 00:27:38,640
It was like seven o'clock. It was like getting dark,

512
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,240
like around eight or or seven thirty ish. I think

513
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,119
it was about timy. It wasn't too long. It was

514
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,839
only a couple months ago. And so we get out

515
00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:49,240
there and it's just about it had gotten dark, and

516
00:27:50,279 --> 00:27:52,519
there's an area you're really not supposed to go into,

517
00:27:52,599 --> 00:27:54,640
but I go into it because I follow the four

518
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,440
wheeler trails. My jeeps not too wide, I can get

519
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,559
in there, so I, you know, kick in a four

520
00:27:59,559 --> 00:28:00,920
wheel draw. I have to go up the hill and

521
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:06,319
follow the four wheel drive trail. And as you start

522
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:11,400
coming in, there's a hill and the hills only maybe

523
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,960
one hundred yards from where I come in at and

524
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:20,759
there's like a white limestone road is all it is

525
00:28:20,759 --> 00:28:22,519
that runs through the middle of this place, and then

526
00:28:22,519 --> 00:28:24,519
the hills are east side is where they mined through.

527
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,480
And it's super dense everywhere else back there other than

528
00:28:27,519 --> 00:28:30,039
that one road that runs through. So why I start

529
00:28:30,079 --> 00:28:31,920
going down the road, I come up over the hill,

530
00:28:32,079 --> 00:28:35,799
my headlights are on and as you come up and

531
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:40,319
go down the hill, my headlights caught this thing. And

532
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,319
I looked at Christina and I heard her daughter go,

533
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,119
oh my god, and Christina, what was it? What was it?

534
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:57,279
Speaker 3: We saw two giant like almost like a road reflector,

535
00:28:57,759 --> 00:29:00,880
you know how they like give that refive light. There

536
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,720
were two big ones and they were just like next

537
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,319
to this big tree.

538
00:29:07,799 --> 00:29:13,519
Speaker 2: It ha'd be like a twenty foot tree. Easy it was, and.

539
00:29:13,519 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 3: It was about half like the eyes were about halfway

540
00:29:17,079 --> 00:29:18,079
up that tree.

541
00:29:18,359 --> 00:29:19,319
Speaker 4: So I'm just stemm.

542
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:23,839
Speaker 3: I don't have the best vision of distance wise, but

543
00:29:25,079 --> 00:29:28,880
there was no missing those eyes. And I'm just sitting

544
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,720
there staring, and I just do this long blink like Okay,

545
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,759
I'm gonna blink my eyes and I'm opening them back

546
00:29:34,839 --> 00:29:37,680
up and there's not gonna be anything there. But they

547
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,519
were still there. They were still there, and I'm just

548
00:29:41,559 --> 00:29:44,160
like and then Mike and my daughter are freaking out,

549
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,200
and I'm just like in silence.

550
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 2: Well, Christina like she saw it, but she didn't catch

551
00:29:52,319 --> 00:29:55,920
the first part as good like may I make. She

552
00:29:56,039 --> 00:29:58,319
may have been looking at her phone, maybe looking out

553
00:29:58,319 --> 00:30:01,680
the window. Me and Me and Kate were staring directly

554
00:30:01,759 --> 00:30:04,039
ahead of us as we pulled over that hill, and

555
00:30:04,599 --> 00:30:09,839
I saw these giant yellow screen more yellow than green,

556
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:13,880
but yellows green reflector road reflector sized eyeballs. But when

557
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,359
I first saw it, it was only about five foot

558
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:23,079
off the ground. And I see it. I see, I

559
00:30:23,119 --> 00:30:26,000
see it as like I mean probably, like I said,

560
00:30:26,039 --> 00:30:28,759
probably five foot off the ground. And I stopped the jeep.

561
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,480
And as I stopped the jeep, I'm staring at the

562
00:30:33,119 --> 00:30:37,759
at the eyes and it looks away, Oh my god,

563
00:30:37,799 --> 00:30:40,519
and Kate goes, oh my god. It turns and looks

564
00:30:40,559 --> 00:30:43,160
back at us, and then it stands up three foot taller.

565
00:30:43,799 --> 00:30:46,759
I mean it literally stood up three foot taller than

566
00:30:46,799 --> 00:30:48,599
what it was now It's at least eight foot tall

567
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,319
off the ground with the eyeball shining at us. And

568
00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:55,599
it then stopped, put his head down like the eye

569
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,200
like the like the light was hurting his eyes. And

570
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,480
then he put his head and he took three big

571
00:31:01,519 --> 00:31:05,400
steps and was gone into the forest and it disappeared. Kate,

572
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,400
and I'm like, oh my god, Kate, oh my god,

573
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,440
Christina did see that? And Kate goes, yeah, did you

574
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,000
see the deer? And at the time, I'm like, the

575
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,920
deer We have a video that we did this too, because,

576
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,000
like I try to, we weren't filming it right at

577
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,599
that time, which was, oh, it was so frustrating. We

578
00:31:20,599 --> 00:31:26,440
weren't filming. But I filmed our reactions and I put

579
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,839
that up too, because it's like it's awesome, like just

580
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,559
seeing how excited we all were. But Kate's like, did

581
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,160
you see the deer? And I'm like, no, I didn't

582
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,599
see the deer. I didn't pay attention. She goes, yeah,

583
00:31:35,599 --> 00:31:37,599
I saw two green, two sets of eyes that were

584
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,799
real loaded to ground out in front of where it was.

585
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,200
Where in front of that thing was well, we went back,

586
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,720
me and Christina went back the next day. There was

587
00:31:45,759 --> 00:31:49,119
a big fern tree there that was like sixteen eight

588
00:31:49,319 --> 00:31:54,000
maybe twenty foot tall, and I realize now that what

589
00:31:54,079 --> 00:31:57,680
it was doing was hunched over behind that tree. We

590
00:31:57,759 --> 00:32:00,200
think he was hunting the deer. He was waiting for

591
00:32:00,279 --> 00:32:02,880
the deer to come walk in on them. And we

592
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,960
must have interfered with that because it really gave me a.

593
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 3: Perspective because where we come in, you know, there aren't

594
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,680
normally headlights out there, so he was probably looking out

595
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,680
over the i'll call it pasture.

596
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:18,519
Speaker 2: It's non pasture. I don't know what he would call it, but.

597
00:32:19,079 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 3: The open area there and here we come up over

598
00:32:25,559 --> 00:32:29,279
the hill that nobody goes, so I feel like we

599
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:34,200
really you know, he was hunting those deer, and he

600
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,359
got distracted by the headlights that don't normally come through.

601
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,200
You know, people probably park their pull up there at night,

602
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:42,799
but nobody actually comes.

603
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:43,519
Speaker 2: Through with the headlights.

604
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,839
Speaker 3: So it was like he looked over like, oh my gosh,

605
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:53,519
they're like back here, they're coming closer. And then it's

606
00:32:53,559 --> 00:32:55,240
like we caught him off guard and he ran off.

607
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,640
So the next day we wanted to go back and

608
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,559
see if there were any prints or anything like that

609
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,119
and kind of measure the tree and kind of get

610
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:10,039
like a bigger perspective of where he was and if

611
00:33:10,039 --> 00:33:11,519
we could find any prints.

612
00:33:11,759 --> 00:33:15,319
Speaker 2: We wanted to get it all as while it was

613
00:33:15,319 --> 00:33:17,559
fresh on our mind, get it on film and put

614
00:33:17,599 --> 00:33:18,799
it out there, so I did. We did a little

615
00:33:18,839 --> 00:33:21,400
video about that too, showing me exactly exactly where it

616
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,880
happened and how tall it was on the tree and

617
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,880
going play by play with it. And we we actually

618
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,960
found some bones back behind in a trail. We found

619
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,240
a deer skull and some other things back behind where

620
00:33:35,759 --> 00:33:38,079
it was actually standing at and a trail that went

621
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,519
right into the woods and back over the hill. And

622
00:33:41,559 --> 00:33:43,599
so that now now I'm like, I can't stop thinking

623
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,799
about this place. And so we've been there two days

624
00:33:45,799 --> 00:33:48,799
in a row, and then I think we went I

625
00:33:48,839 --> 00:33:51,759
think we took a day off. That was Sunday, Monday.

626
00:33:51,799 --> 00:33:54,519
I picked my children up and they had a half day.

627
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,960
So I told them what happened, and they're super jealous.

628
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,400
So they're super jealous that me, Kate and Jesse and

629
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,720
Christina see the ice time. They're like, oh my god.

630
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,960
So I said, all right, well listen, guys, why don't

631
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,440
we since the half day, I'll just go straight over here,

632
00:34:11,519 --> 00:34:13,599
We'll go check out the hill. And they're like, cool,

633
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,519
let's go do it. So we go walking in. We

634
00:34:17,519 --> 00:34:18,880
were in there what five.

635
00:34:18,679 --> 00:34:22,519
Speaker 4: Minutes, yeah, five minutes then and we see like a

636
00:34:22,639 --> 00:34:24,320
thousand footprints.

637
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 2: All over us, and we were like, we're.

638
00:34:25,679 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 4: Definitely gonna print these things out with the cast and well.

639
00:34:29,119 --> 00:34:32,639
Speaker 2: Not quite a thousand, but there was definitely a trackway

640
00:34:32,639 --> 00:34:36,119
that we found back there. I made. I decided to

641
00:34:36,119 --> 00:34:38,599
take this little area. There's some cedar trees back there

642
00:34:38,599 --> 00:34:40,639
which are another one. You don't see a lot in Florida,

643
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,519
but I found out they grow close to the cave systems,

644
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,079
and the hardwood grows next to the hard ground areas

645
00:34:47,079 --> 00:34:51,840
and the deep water areas. So there's this little area

646
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,440
and it's like I said, back behind where he was

647
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,199
at and there's at least four really good tracks, but

648
00:34:57,199 --> 00:35:00,840
they go. There was impressions everywhere, but there weren't huge.

649
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,840
So I give a I give a Christina call and

650
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,239
I'm like, hey, we're over here. We've got footprints. Can

651
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,519
you come over and bring some casting material because I

652
00:35:10,559 --> 00:35:12,559
didn't have my my equipment with me because I was

653
00:35:12,559 --> 00:35:15,159
coming from picking the kids up. So she's like sure,

654
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,239
So she comes over. The kids helped me. We did

655
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,360
some cool videos, right, we made some cool videos. Yeah,

656
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:25,360
we made a really nice casting. I got some good

657
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,159
pictures of that. I have an awesome Uh the cast

658
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:30,920
is really cool. It's it's one of the few that

659
00:35:31,199 --> 00:35:35,079
in Florida that I've actually gotten with really really good toast.

660
00:35:35,199 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was like kind of little. It was not

661
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:39,280
like one of they would It.

662
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 2: Was kind of like little where then it was like little.

663
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:43,639
In fact, yea.

664
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:49,280
Speaker 4: Wide. Their prints are way different than it was like

665
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,559
almost like a juvenile kind of was like walking around

666
00:35:52,639 --> 00:35:54,159
there was That's.

667
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 2: Exactly what I would call it. I think it was

668
00:35:55,960 --> 00:36:01,320
a juvenile which goes directly in to our next door

669
00:36:01,519 --> 00:36:06,239
next part of our story, which was unbelievable but amazing

670
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:10,880
at the same time. So Christina gets there and we

671
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,280
make the cast. We want to let them dry for

672
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:14,599
you know, I like to let them dry at least

673
00:36:14,599 --> 00:36:17,119
an hour so I can really dig out from underneath them.

674
00:36:17,559 --> 00:36:20,239
And I'm like, well, we got about an hour before

675
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,599
it gets dark. Let's go for a hike back in

676
00:36:22,679 --> 00:36:25,000
here and go check out some areas. That's what we did.

677
00:36:25,639 --> 00:36:28,320
So we go walking in and there's a there's some

678
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,000
horse trails that go back through the hills, and on

679
00:36:31,079 --> 00:36:32,880
the way back, I made kind of a wrong turn

680
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,760
and wanted to go check out another spot and got

681
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,360
a little bit turned around. I won't say lost, because

682
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,599
that's just I can't say that. I just was turned

683
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:41,840
around a little bit. I didn't want to tell them,

684
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:46,719
of course, so I was lost, and I looked at

685
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,119
my GPS and I'm like, all right, the fastest way

686
00:36:49,119 --> 00:36:51,159
to get back to where that cast is is to

687
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,559
go right through here an area that had no trail,

688
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:55,800
no nothing, just cut right through the middle of it.

689
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,920
So I've never been been back there. So we go

690
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:00,559
cutting through the middle of it. I said, we're like

691
00:37:01,159 --> 00:37:04,400
basically hacking our way through, trying to get back before dark.

692
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,400
And we came into this little area there was like

693
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,000
a valley that went down like as you walk in.

694
00:37:12,039 --> 00:37:14,440
The hill was like at least fifty to sixty foot tall,

695
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,119
maybe one hundred foot tall, I don't know, on each

696
00:37:17,159 --> 00:37:18,960
side of us, and it was like a valley. We

697
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,480
were kind of a little valley deal we were walking

698
00:37:20,519 --> 00:37:26,360
into and I look up ahead of me and I

699
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:32,079
thought I was singing bear At first, I stopped. What

700
00:37:32,079 --> 00:37:32,400
did I do?

701
00:37:32,519 --> 00:37:37,800
Speaker 4: Kaylen, I only say this, I swear, it's just the

702
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,199
way he stopped and looked like he got caught in

703
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,960
a spider man. I'm like, oh, oh see, and he stopped.

704
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:49,960
He's like I'm like what. I'm like. He's like, no word,

705
00:37:50,079 --> 00:37:54,880
just points like look. I'm like, what is it ratting?

706
00:37:55,039 --> 00:37:58,159
Like is that a rabbit? Because I'm too short at

707
00:37:58,159 --> 00:38:01,800
this point and the grass is like probably up to

708
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,840
my height. And we were in the grass. There's like

709
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,239
a little tiny hill going up and the grass was

710
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:08,000
just at the height.

711
00:38:08,639 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 2: It was a very odd angle, yeah, because.

712
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,199
Speaker 4: The hills back there are weird at the elevation every

713
00:38:17,639 --> 00:38:19,039
So basically.

714
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:25,119
Speaker 2: What Kaylen hadn't seen yet. Kaylen didn't see the first part.

715
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:29,519
He saw the second part and the third part. The

716
00:38:29,559 --> 00:38:33,679
first part. This thing was not much taller than I was,

717
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:39,480
jet black with the most beautiful, well groomed looking hair

718
00:38:39,599 --> 00:38:41,760
I've ever seen in my life. It was only thirty

719
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,000
yards ahead of us, and it was on the right

720
00:38:44,039 --> 00:38:46,840
side of the trail, and it was standing up and

721
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:53,960
it looked to me like a more lean gorilla, chiseled

722
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:58,159
the gorilla shape like, that's the strame of what it

723
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,440
was like. It's had a big upper body, and but

724
00:39:01,519 --> 00:39:05,360
it wasn't super tall. And it took off on two legs.

725
00:39:05,559 --> 00:39:08,239
It took two steps, and on the third step this

726
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,119
thing went to all fours and it was so fluid

727
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,199
and it was so I had never seen anything move

728
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,079
the way this thing moved. Bears walk funny, they're awkward

729
00:39:18,119 --> 00:39:21,239
on two feet. This thing took two steps like a man,

730
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,840
and on the third step went to all four and

731
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,599
it was the fastest moving thing I've ever seen in

732
00:39:27,639 --> 00:39:32,800
my life, and it plowed into the bushes to our left,

733
00:39:33,159 --> 00:39:35,440
and right about that time, that's right when Kaylen was like,

734
00:39:35,519 --> 00:39:38,480
it's in a rabbit and I pick him up and

735
00:39:38,519 --> 00:39:40,559
he sees it. He's like, oh, I see it.

736
00:39:40,559 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 4: I'm like at this point, I already know what it is.

737
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:48,840
I'm like, yep, that's definitely one right. It's what we

738
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:52,039
always been trying to look for, obviously.

739
00:39:52,159 --> 00:39:54,039
Speaker 2: So then it's there. It's right in front of the

740
00:39:54,119 --> 00:39:55,079
stin it's running off.

741
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 4: I'm like, well, look there he is. And then I'm

742
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,639
like that that does look bear. And what I saw

743
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,159
I saw. I was trying to get every detail I could.

744
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,679
It was really cool. Whenever he I don't know my

745
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,000
dad saw it because he was at a different angle,

746
00:40:11,039 --> 00:40:13,800
but I was at another angle and I don't know

747
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,039
if he saw it. But whenever it was just about gone.

748
00:40:18,159 --> 00:40:21,400
It went back to two legs and I saw it

749
00:40:21,679 --> 00:40:25,000
move a stick, and then it took a step and

750
00:40:25,079 --> 00:40:27,440
it moved his shoulders and he was gone. The only

751
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,480
thing I saw was him move a stick and I

752
00:40:29,519 --> 00:40:31,719
saw his wide shoulder and he was gone.

753
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,519
Speaker 2: I saw him go back from four legs to two four.

754
00:40:35,639 --> 00:40:37,280
I don't know. I didn't pay attention to him, maybe

755
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,159
moving a stick, but I think what he did I

756
00:40:40,199 --> 00:40:41,960
did see was him go to two legs to go

757
00:40:42,079 --> 00:40:44,119
up the hill that's over there. And he went from

758
00:40:44,159 --> 00:40:47,960
four back to two legs going up the hill and

759
00:40:48,119 --> 00:40:53,559
was gone. And I turned around and I'm like, Christina, Kylie,

760
00:40:53,639 --> 00:40:54,760
did you Oh my gosh.

761
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 4: I list in the background crying and I'm like, I

762
00:40:57,559 --> 00:40:58,760
wanted to see it.

763
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:03,239
Speaker 2: Kylie's crying, like she's hysterically crying, and I'm like, maybe

764
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,719
it's okay, it's not going to hurt us, and she goes,

765
00:41:06,039 --> 00:41:08,840
it's it's in the video. She goes, no, I just

766
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:13,000
wanted to see them. I'm like, oh, I didn't know.

767
00:41:13,079 --> 00:41:17,360
She was crying because she wanted to see them. And

768
00:41:17,599 --> 00:41:21,159
Christina's like, I didn't see anything. I'm like what, Yeah,

769
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:21,639
we were.

770
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 3: We were trailing behind the ways and Kylie was talking

771
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,360
about this and we had sticks and leaves and she

772
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,880
had all the little all the little things we had

773
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,599
gathered on our walk and we were just you know,

774
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,320
chit chatting and whatnot. And then they're all they like

775
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,760
stop and freeze and asking us if we saw anything.

776
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:39,679
Speaker 2: We're just like no.

777
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,599
Speaker 3: So then I whip out my phone and I start

778
00:41:41,679 --> 00:41:45,480
recording so that they can you know, it's freshen their

779
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:46,440
minds and everything else.

780
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,159
Speaker 2: So we would have it, but we didn't.

781
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,400
Speaker 3: We unfortunately didn't get to see anything, but hey, we

782
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,159
were still there.

783
00:41:54,280 --> 00:42:01,639
Speaker 2: Still, it was an amazing family moment because you know,

784
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:05,039
first you have Friday night and like for the first

785
00:42:05,039 --> 00:42:07,079
time I got to look at Christina and say, I'm

786
00:42:07,079 --> 00:42:09,639
not crazy, and you know this one hundred percent now,

787
00:42:10,159 --> 00:42:14,320
like not that hype of crazy. And then and then

788
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:20,440
less than one hundred yards or two hundred yards from

789
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,119
where that happened, we see this one. And what's even

790
00:42:24,199 --> 00:42:27,360
more really, what's really cool is the footprint we found,

791
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,840
to me, would have matched that that juvenile perfect, which

792
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:33,480
is what I think it was. I think it was like,

793
00:42:33,639 --> 00:42:35,159
if I had to guess, I would say it was

794
00:42:35,199 --> 00:42:40,719
a teenager. It was a teenage, a junior squatch. And

795
00:42:41,119 --> 00:42:44,840
the footprint was almost eleven inches long, but it was

796
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,079
like almost six inches wide, like five and a half

797
00:42:47,079 --> 00:42:51,639
inches wide and at the across the toepad and I

798
00:42:51,679 --> 00:42:55,000
think three and a half or almost four at the heel.

799
00:42:55,440 --> 00:43:00,079
It was just a short wide foot perfect. But that

800
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:06,039
that figure perfect. I'm I'm still what ketch blows me away.

801
00:43:06,159 --> 00:43:10,079
Is the color of that thing's hair like perfect? It

802
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,159
was perfect because I had another sighting in the green

803
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,239
Swamp a few years ago at night where I turned

804
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:17,880
a headlamp on and this thing was there and he

805
00:43:18,039 --> 00:43:20,760
was nowhere near like this one. But that was in

806
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,000
the middle of the green swamp. This area is not

807
00:43:24,039 --> 00:43:28,920
a swamp. It's hills and caves. It's a totally different environment.

808
00:43:29,119 --> 00:43:31,960
It's not swampy. And it looked like he had blow

809
00:43:32,039 --> 00:43:35,159
dried and maintained his hair on a regular basis. It was.

810
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:36,039
It was incredible.

811
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 3: Well, and you also got to figure the age, you know, Yeah,

812
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,000
the age of a juvenile.

813
00:43:42,079 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 2: Maybe how long it's been around.

814
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,079
Speaker 3: That's less time it's gone without brushing its hair.

815
00:43:50,119 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 4: Maybe maybe the older one. Maybe the older ones just

816
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,519
it's probably because they ledge longer and right, they've been

817
00:43:57,599 --> 00:44:01,320
around longer, and they through more crack than we do.

818
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 2: Yes, because if we got a minute, I would like

819
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,800
to let you. Kylie wants to tell you guys a

820
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,440
little story that she had and it was from We're

821
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:18,360
going to kind of go away a different, little different direction.

822
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,159
We're going to go over to another night. That was

823
00:44:21,199 --> 00:44:24,199
pretty much the end of that. That was an amazing

824
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,960
moment that we have with our family. But a few

825
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,519
months before that, we were doing a big camp out,

826
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:33,679
is what it was. We were doing a camp out

827
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:35,639
with the group that we used to do a lot

828
00:44:35,639 --> 00:44:40,840
of stuff with and we were back there and decided

829
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,119
to take the kids. Well, what happened is I would

830
00:44:43,199 --> 00:44:45,000
normally me and Christina would take kids with us and

831
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,320
we would take them to do kids stuff at night,

832
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,159
do scary camp hikes and different things. We love doing

833
00:44:50,199 --> 00:44:52,400
it with the kids. And we had about probably fifteen

834
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,039
kids with us, and what happened, Kylie.

835
00:44:55,840 --> 00:45:02,840
Speaker 4: Sir on the tragis rocking the whole entire group. We

836
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:08,880
all just showed whoa, just a big dark and it

837
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:13,639
was really deep, and everybody was like whoa. And then

838
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,559
I was just crying. And then and I was like

839
00:45:16,599 --> 00:45:19,559
I wanted to go back to the camp road, and

840
00:45:19,599 --> 00:45:25,000
then we started just while that, everyone just started going

841
00:45:25,119 --> 00:45:28,280
walking back, and then we came to the campground and

842
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,119
just had a fire and stuff, and then we went

843
00:45:31,159 --> 00:45:32,679
to bed. And then.

844
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:39,119
Speaker 2: Your attention to detail, honey, is crazy, But thank you

845
00:45:39,199 --> 00:45:41,159
so much for sharing that.

846
00:45:41,519 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 4: You got scared my house.

847
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 2: I can give a little more detail.

848
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:48,760
Speaker 4: It was like a mile away.

849
00:45:49,119 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 2: It was less way less. It was one of the louder,

850
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,440
longer vocals I'd heard, and it was it wasn't a

851
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,440
high pitching one. It wasn't like the Who. It was.

852
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,119
Speaker 4: A bear.

853
00:46:04,079 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 6: It was kind of like cash And everybody's like oh,

854
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,559
and it was so loud and so creepy in the

855
00:46:11,559 --> 00:46:14,679
middle of this area, and Kylie just lost it.

856
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 2: She started crying. She's like, I want to go back,

857
00:46:17,639 --> 00:46:20,800
and it was It was another cute moment. Kylie has

858
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,199
gotten much tougher since then, and she she doesn't get

859
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,039
scared too often now. She knows that they're not here

860
00:46:26,039 --> 00:46:28,679
to hurt you. Right, what do you do when you're

861
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:33,159
in the woods? You talk to him? What do you

862
00:46:33,159 --> 00:46:33,679
tell them?

863
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 4: I love them? I give them presents?

864
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:45,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, what kind of presents do you give them?

865
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,239
Speaker 2: Hey? Do you want to tell them what happened with

866
00:46:48,559 --> 00:46:52,360
the new area? Were remember when we the area that

867
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:54,559
we saw the juvenile and we made it a gifting

868
00:46:54,599 --> 00:46:55,840
area and you took the feather?

869
00:46:56,159 --> 00:47:01,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, so were we got this new area and we

870
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,880
were walking back to the gifting area where the trees were,

871
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,280
and we came back. I left.

872
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 2: Tell him what you left.

873
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 4: We left this fish. It was on a stick and

874
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,679
it was where like you can fall off easily, and

875
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:24,159
the rain was pouring and stuff. And then this leave,

876
00:47:24,559 --> 00:47:25,119
I put.

877
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,159
Speaker 2: It the feather, the green feather.

878
00:47:27,519 --> 00:47:29,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had green feather. It was kind of like

879
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:34,039
a bird feather. And I got it off like a headband.

880
00:47:34,559 --> 00:47:37,800
There's like much more feathers on it. Then I got

881
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,960
it off the headband and I wanted to bring it there,

882
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,360
and I put it on this stick, this long stick,

883
00:47:44,639 --> 00:47:46,320
and I put it all the way.

884
00:47:46,159 --> 00:47:53,199
Speaker 2: Back and then.

885
00:47:50,519 --> 00:47:53,199
Speaker 4: Where I can like spin kind of, I was like

886
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,119
spinning it so they can play with that. And then

887
00:47:56,440 --> 00:48:01,760
next time we came back, the feather was yeah, and

888
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,119
the fish and it was like just moved out all

889
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:08,320
this perfect not even curved or nothing. How it was.

890
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:12,880
And then the fish was on top of it, and

891
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,199
the feather was laying on the bottom and there was

892
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:19,320
no way that the fish can get like on.

893
00:48:19,119 --> 00:48:22,559
Speaker 7: The So this this little this little fish that she

894
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,480
put was like a little poppet type fish and a

895
00:48:26,519 --> 00:48:28,679
little toy and it was up in the tree about

896
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,079
seven foot in the air, and it was wedged in

897
00:48:31,119 --> 00:48:33,639
the tree where it couldn't move. The green feather was

898
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,480
basically tied to make it like a circle, and she

899
00:48:36,559 --> 00:48:38,400
made it with like a toy where it would spin

900
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,000
around the little twig it was on. When we came

901
00:48:41,079 --> 00:48:44,199
back to check on it the next time, the green

902
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:47,599
feather was gone, and I'm like, where's the green feather?

903
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:49,760
Speaker 4: And then I looked on the ground and they're like, Dad,

904
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:50,519
look on the floor.

905
00:48:50,519 --> 00:48:54,079
Speaker 2: And then yeah, we saw that fish.

906
00:48:54,119 --> 00:48:56,079
Speaker 4: And then you'll like, where's the feather.

907
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,079
Speaker 2: Right, We're like, where's the feather.

908
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,039
Speaker 4: I lift up the fish and I saw the feather

909
00:49:02,559 --> 00:49:04,119
flag smooth under the ground.

910
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,639
Speaker 2: She picks up the fish and the feather is under it.

911
00:49:07,159 --> 00:49:09,480
That fish was seven foot in the air and now

912
00:49:09,519 --> 00:49:12,159
it's on the ground with the feather underneath it, in

913
00:49:12,199 --> 00:49:15,280
the same exact location that we had seen the juvenile.

914
00:49:16,159 --> 00:49:19,199
Speaker 4: It was almost like they are like like playing it.

915
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,440
Took the comb and like you know how you brush

916
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,920
your hair. It's really smooth. It's almost like they're doing

917
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,320
that to the feather, but they're like treating it like

918
00:49:28,159 --> 00:49:31,239
leaves to like brush his hair. It was surprisingly smooth.

919
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 2: It was. It was a very unique moment in this

920
00:49:36,599 --> 00:49:39,840
exact same area, exact same tree. Like I said, we

921
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,480
started trying to turn it into like a little gift

922
00:49:41,519 --> 00:49:43,559
area to see if we get any your actions. We

923
00:49:43,679 --> 00:49:47,559
also had like we've had tree or rocks and trees.

924
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:51,599
We've had rocks get moved, We've had we've had so

925
00:49:51,639 --> 00:49:54,280
many weird things happened already back in this spot, and

926
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,239
we're just beginning with it, Like I mean, we're really

927
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,960
just beginning. Me and Christina went back to this spot

928
00:50:01,199 --> 00:50:05,840
not long ago and found an area where it looked

929
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:09,480
like the palmeto palms that were forty foot tall.

930
00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:13,880
Speaker 8: Like something been climbing on constantly, and all the palm

931
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:18,559
frond ends that when palmetto gets old, Palmeno palm gets old,

932
00:50:18,559 --> 00:50:20,679
like all they was stripped clean and all the more

933
00:50:20,679 --> 00:50:22,400
on the ground and just right Christian, it was like

934
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:23,559
it was like something went back there.

935
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,079
Speaker 2: Playing, Yeah, very strange.

936
00:50:27,159 --> 00:50:29,000
Speaker 4: Can I tell them I another part of the story,

937
00:50:29,199 --> 00:50:32,440
go for it. I remember we had this other place

938
00:50:32,639 --> 00:50:37,320
and we were all with another group and just apart,

939
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:41,239
and there was this thing and Bob was just like

940
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,679
Bob and Darren and stuff. They were all like looking

941
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:46,920
in the puddles and stuff, and then like in the

942
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,400
tall grass and then we were just walking on the

943
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,119
trail where they were just right and behind and this

944
00:50:52,679 --> 00:50:53,280
just walking.

945
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:54,519
Speaker 2: I remember.

946
00:50:56,039 --> 00:50:59,719
Speaker 4: I remember we were walking and we stopped for a second.

947
00:51:01,079 --> 00:51:04,000
I was like, we heard this big we heard this

948
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:09,360
hour bruh, like just tweaking, and I was like, what

949
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,280
like the big fitz walking in the birder. I will

950
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:17,440
like landed on his shoulder and like started chirping and

951
00:51:17,519 --> 00:51:21,920
got scared or something. And then I remember whenever you

952
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:25,199
and Marie were like, that's a good thing. I do

953
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:29,239
have a story to tell him and Jennings that didn't work.

954
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:33,599
Speaker 2: The bridge something one more thing he wants to tell.

955
00:51:34,519 --> 00:51:37,800
Speaker 4: So not quite a year ago, we went to Jennings.

956
00:51:38,199 --> 00:51:41,280
It wasn't too long ago, right, maybe ago, I don't know. No,

957
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,719
not a year ago, it wasn't too long ago. So

958
00:51:45,159 --> 00:51:48,840
we went to Jennings State Forest and my dad is

959
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:51,440
getting things out of Christina's helping them. They're all getting

960
00:51:51,519 --> 00:51:54,239
sent ready and we kind of got there around like

961
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,079
the sky is like a dark blue, like it's it's

962
00:51:58,079 --> 00:51:59,000
still dark.

963
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:04,599
Speaker 2: And was one second this area so that they know

964
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:08,599
this area that we went to, Jennings State Forest has

965
00:52:08,639 --> 00:52:12,320
a campground. This campground has had a lot of activity

966
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:15,519
at it. The campground itself. We've had stuff our own self.

967
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,119
Two years ago, we had stuff happened at this campground.

968
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:20,719
So that's what Kaylin's telling you about. He's gonna tell

969
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:22,840
you about that campground. Right when we first got there.

970
00:52:23,159 --> 00:52:25,159
I'm just trying to give them an idea what they got,

971
00:52:25,199 --> 00:52:27,079
what we got going on there, you go.

972
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:33,079
Speaker 4: So, yeah, we get there, we're uploading everything, and at

973
00:52:33,079 --> 00:52:37,519
this time, the word was really dark, and I hear

974
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,800
almost sound like a pine code. For some reason, that's

975
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,440
the that's the only thing that can pop in my mind.

976
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:46,639
It sounded like something to throw something at it and

977
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,800
or through something like behind me. And then anything that

978
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:52,079
I could think of was pine cone.

979
00:52:52,079 --> 00:52:52,639
Speaker 2: I don't know why.

980
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 4: So then I look over, I look back whatever, and

981
00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,320
then I hear a crack and I look over and

982
00:53:01,079 --> 00:53:04,800
I see a tree limb about I don't know, maybe

983
00:53:05,119 --> 00:53:09,599
six inches thick. I see it come down from about

984
00:53:09,639 --> 00:53:14,239
eight foot eight foot tall and it just comes crashing down,

985
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:19,000
and I swear I saw this thing. It was super short.

986
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,920
I don't know it could have been. It could have

987
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,880
been taller than I was looking or that I saw,

988
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:29,719
but it was at least five foot tall, and I

989
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:32,880
think I saw it run off, but I saw it,

990
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:34,559
and it was almost like it just vanished.

991
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 2: We walked back to go look what it was, because

992
00:53:38,079 --> 00:53:39,880
I heard it and saw the branch too. When we

993
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,039
were right there sitting our tent up, and I'm like,

994
00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:44,360
what the heck was that. There's not a breath of

995
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,679
wind blowing. Yeah, it's not like any now wind just

996
00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:51,760
before dark, nothing blowing. And we walked back there and

997
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,679
there's this limb that's about ten foot long and it

998
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:58,480
came from thirty foot in the air, and I'm like,

999
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:02,679
how did that just magically break off out of nowhere?

1000
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:05,559
This thing was green, it was no rot to it,

1001
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,880
The tree was fine. It just broke off and came

1002
00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:11,840
falling down. And Cam was like, I swear I saw something.

1003
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:13,719
Dad Like, it's so dark but I can barely see,

1004
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:16,039
but I swear I saw like a dark figure take off.

1005
00:54:16,199 --> 00:54:20,719
I can't see sure, right, but it's still really really ironic.

1006
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:24,599
Just to have that happen like that, it was really odd.

1007
00:54:25,519 --> 00:54:27,800
Which We've had some really good things happen in that

1008
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:31,199
forest too. At Jennings State Forest. We found trackways out there.

1009
00:54:31,679 --> 00:54:33,960
We've had things happen in the middle of the night

1010
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:38,679
where we heard things walking around the tent. We've had

1011
00:54:38,679 --> 00:54:41,239
some really really cool things out there too. When we

1012
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:44,159
say we're a family research team, we're literally a family

1013
00:54:44,199 --> 00:54:47,840
research team. Like this is our fun, this is our hobby.

1014
00:54:48,159 --> 00:54:52,400
We love going out together in a safe way. I

1015
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:56,119
am a very protective father. I will throw myself in

1016
00:54:56,159 --> 00:54:58,719
front of anything to stop my kids from getting hurt.

1017
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,039
So I don't want people thinking that we're putting our

1018
00:55:01,079 --> 00:55:03,800
kids in danger. There's a lot of dangerous things in Florida.

1019
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,719
But I'm a you know, fifth gener or fourth generation Floridian.

1020
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,800
You're the fifth you guys are the fifth and I

1021
00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:14,599
grew up here. Alligator, snakes, everything you name it. I

1022
00:55:14,599 --> 00:55:16,519
grew up with it. My kids have learned how to

1023
00:55:16,519 --> 00:55:18,840
deal with it too. They know what to be around,

1024
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,719
what not to be around. They know what animals, what plants,

1025
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:26,119
everything that will hurt you, and they're very aware. These

1026
00:55:26,199 --> 00:55:28,519
kids are assets to me when I go in the

1027
00:55:28,559 --> 00:55:31,360
woods because they're lower to the ground. You watch some

1028
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:33,760
of our videos and you'll see them. They're not like

1029
00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:35,960
normal little kids, man. I mean they are out and

1030
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:41,159
there on it. They're finding footprints. They're extremely curious and observant,

1031
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:44,679
it's awesome. I love them so much for it. It

1032
00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:49,320
makes it really cool. But that means said, we've turned

1033
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,960
it just from just the family into a research team

1034
00:55:53,039 --> 00:55:56,599
now and we're expanding that to where we're going to

1035
00:55:56,599 --> 00:56:01,360
be doing not only stuff with just Christina and the kids,

1036
00:56:01,679 --> 00:56:03,320
but there's gonna be times where we do our adult

1037
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:05,360
stuff and we have a more serious side of it too.

1038
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,559
I mean, it's always serious, but it's fun, but we're

1039
00:56:07,599 --> 00:56:11,559
gonna have the serious side of it too. We have me, Christina,

1040
00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:16,360
our four children. And then next is Ryan rpg Golmbski.

1041
00:56:17,119 --> 00:56:21,280
He's been on the History Channel, he's been on the

1042
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:25,400
Discovery Channel, He's been all over, but he's our media guys.

1043
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:29,559
He's amazing and he's a great field researcher as well.

1044
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:34,880
And then we have Frank Middleton who is a bfro

1045
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:40,360
O investigator. He's from Kentucky, but he's been living in

1046
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,719
Florida for a very long time. He all he does

1047
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,760
is go around checking on bigfoot sightings that reports that

1048
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,639
he hears, and a lot of them from this area

1049
00:56:49,639 --> 00:56:53,920
we're at now. But anyway, he is ex military X

1050
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:58,360
sniper Like the guy is just he's he lives in

1051
00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:00,440
the woods. He loves it. He's out in the ountain

1052
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:04,480
camping over one hundred days a year. And then after him,

1053
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:08,159
we have a very unique person that's part of our

1054
00:57:08,159 --> 00:57:15,559
group is Robert Brooks. Robert Brooks is a cave locating

1055
00:57:15,599 --> 00:57:18,719
specialist for the state of Florida. We call him the Caveman.

1056
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:22,800
He works for the county for the water department of

1057
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:25,000
the county. He goes out and he sprays, make sure

1058
00:57:25,039 --> 00:57:28,400
all the waters levels are right. Everything with that part

1059
00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:33,400
of that. He is a licensed cave diver too for

1060
00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:36,119
the State of Florida. When people go into these cave

1061
00:57:36,159 --> 00:57:38,679
systems at night, I mean go into cave systems to

1062
00:57:38,719 --> 00:57:41,360
go diving, they're the one they send him in to

1063
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:45,000
go find the bodies when they can't find them. He

1064
00:57:45,119 --> 00:57:49,000
locates caves. That's how he found me is he had

1065
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,280
had an encounter while locating a cave. He's located over

1066
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:57,360
three hundred caves in the two counties we live in alone,

1067
00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:01,519
so it's very unique to have in the areas he's

1068
00:58:01,719 --> 00:58:06,159
showing us. And then we have Michael Noga. Michael Noga

1069
00:58:06,199 --> 00:58:08,280
is a little bit new to it. He's a guy

1070
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:12,199
who had an encounter and reached out to me and

1071
00:58:12,239 --> 00:58:15,519
we became friends. And he is fearless and is really

1072
00:58:15,639 --> 00:58:18,639
diving into the research part of it, and he's he's

1073
00:58:18,679 --> 00:58:21,119
loving it. He goes out and he'll go camping by himself.

1074
00:58:21,679 --> 00:58:25,679
He's had really cool different encounters on his own and

1075
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,679
with us, we've had some cool stuff happened together. Then

1076
00:58:28,719 --> 00:58:32,400
we have someone we just introduced today which is Phyllis.

1077
00:58:33,239 --> 00:58:37,639
And Phillis is a psychic medium and she brings a

1078
00:58:37,639 --> 00:58:42,960
whole different line, different atmosphere to our group. She's amazing.

1079
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,599
She feels energies and powers and all kinds of cool things.

1080
00:58:45,599 --> 00:58:47,880
She's really cool and unique. We go on that out

1081
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:50,880
with her and she'll tell you I feel it here,

1082
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:54,320
I feel it there, and she's just a unique person.

1083
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:59,599
She's an amazing person. But we're building this group and

1084
00:58:59,599 --> 00:59:03,360
this family of people. It's all different types of things

1085
00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:05,239
and we all bring our own little thing to the table,

1086
00:59:05,719 --> 00:59:09,920
and we're really hoping to grow this and do more videos,

1087
00:59:10,079 --> 00:59:12,639
more and start sharing everything with people. We're trying to

1088
00:59:12,679 --> 00:59:15,320
really push it and turn it into something that people

1089
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,440
are going to know forever. Like hey, when you think

1090
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:20,039
about Florida and Bigfoot, you think about squatching that fl

1091
00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:22,960
and that's why we're doing it.

1092
00:59:24,119 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 1: Mike and Christine. I can't thank you enough for coming

1093
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,639
on and sharing those experiences, and the kids coming on

1094
00:59:29,719 --> 00:59:32,480
too to share their experiences as well. That really did

1095
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:35,679
add a lot to it. It really did. But having

1096
00:59:35,719 --> 00:59:38,559
said that, I've got a lot of questions I wanted

1097
00:59:38,599 --> 00:59:40,920
to ask you, but there's no time to do that tonight.

1098
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:43,559
Would you be okay for coming back next week to

1099
00:59:43,639 --> 00:59:44,320
do a part two?

1100
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:45,599
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1101
00:59:45,679 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

1102
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,519
Speaker 1: Okay, great, Well that's what we'll do then before we

1103
00:59:50,559 --> 00:59:53,960
get out of here tonight, though, do you research sightings

1104
00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,519
that people have in Florida or do you just focus

1105
00:59:56,559 --> 01:00:00,000
on your own research? Because if you do investigate reports

1106
01:00:00,159 --> 01:00:03,840
that others have had with sasquatch and they submit, what

1107
01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:06,039
would be the best way for them to contact you

1108
01:00:06,119 --> 01:00:08,599
and let you know about their sightings.

1109
01:00:10,079 --> 01:00:12,960
Speaker 2: We have done quite a few. Actually, Like I said,

1110
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:15,119
one of the members on my team is because of that.

1111
01:00:15,199 --> 01:00:18,360
He reached out to me through Facebook Messenger. I mean,

1112
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,760
that's one of the easiest ways. If you're actually I

1113
01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:24,159
believe my phone number is on my Facebook page. You

1114
01:00:24,199 --> 01:00:28,440
can text me, you can message me. My email is

1115
01:00:29,199 --> 01:00:34,800
squatching fl at Gmail dot com and everything is the

1116
01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:39,199
same squatching just like I said, Squatch I n FL

1117
01:00:40,039 --> 01:00:43,639
and everything's the same. So maybe we weren't made it easy,

1118
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:47,320
but honestly, probably the easiest way to contact me is

1119
01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:50,000
if you're on our Facebook page or Facebook group and

1120
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:52,440
just shoot me a message a messenger, Hey, I live

1121
01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:54,800
in this county. I have had some stuff happen and

1122
01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:56,360
we'll be happy to come up there and check it out.

1123
01:00:56,360 --> 01:00:59,400
We love doing that stuff I get to meet. I mean,

1124
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:01,599
I've met a lot of really cool people that have

1125
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:04,559
had encounters and that's one of my favorite things to

1126
01:01:04,559 --> 01:01:06,519
do at the conference is you know, like we had

1127
01:01:06,559 --> 01:01:10,760
the conference coming up this year and our own Christina

1128
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,760
is going to be on the skun Cap round table,

1129
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:15,480
which is very exciting. So if you get to come

1130
01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:17,840
to the conference, we're going to be there. The Tampa

1131
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:22,239
conference is in June thirteenth in Okala at the Equestrian Center,

1132
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:23,760
and we're going to be there. We're going to have

1133
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:26,320
a booth set up, we're going to have the whole family,

1134
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,440
all of our routine there. We're going to have some merchandise.

1135
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,760
We've got a really cool logo that we came up

1136
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:34,599
with that we love. People are loving it. We're putting

1137
01:01:34,599 --> 01:01:36,840
together our first order of some merchandise that we're going

1138
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,920
to have there to sell, and all the money goes

1139
01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:42,679
to helping us go out take these kids out and

1140
01:01:42,719 --> 01:01:46,000
do research, and that would be the easiest way. If

1141
01:01:46,039 --> 01:01:48,000
you want to come meet us and you're in Florida,

1142
01:01:48,559 --> 01:01:50,800
come to the conference. You will be blown away at

1143
01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:53,920
what happens. We're going to be on stage telling our

1144
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:57,280
encounters during one portion of it, and Christina's going to

1145
01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:00,320
be up there doing these skuncap round table with our

1146
01:02:00,559 --> 01:02:04,360
other team member, Frank Middleton, and RPG is going to

1147
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,639
be the one that's asking the questions. So it's a

1148
01:02:06,639 --> 01:02:08,880
pretty pretty awesome thing we've got going on.

1149
01:02:09,599 --> 01:02:13,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure sounds like it. You guys are doing impressive things.

1150
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:16,400
Who knows what the future holds for you. It's really

1151
01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:20,199
hard to say, but yeah, it definitely looks up. And

1152
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:23,519
for anyone listening who would like to contact Mike and Christina,

1153
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:25,480
what I'm gonna do is I'm going to put their

1154
01:02:25,519 --> 01:02:29,119
