00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.

Speaker 2: Hello there, Coast to Coast AM. Connie willis with you

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 2: talking about one of my favorite subjects of all bigfoot Sasquatch.

4
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: And there's other names, too many of them, by the way.

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 2: The Harry people goes on and on and on, the

6
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 2: magic people, except there's the one that I just hate

7
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 2: to say that, but anyway, we'll get away from that.

8
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 2: We're talking with Keith Beard in tonight. You can find

9
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 2: him on Facebook groups. He likes to head those ghosts

10
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 2: cryptids UFOs. The Real Truth is one of them. West

11
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 2: Georgia Bigfoot's another International Bigfoot Believers is another.

12
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 3: So you can just.

13
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: Go to Facebook and I guess also find just go

14
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: under Keith Beard and that's you know, like bear and

15
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: then den like a bear in the den. There you go. Hey,

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: that works that way, doesn't it. You probably said that

17
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 2: yourself sometime right and your book is Forest Friends of

18
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: the Night, My True Story of Recovery of the Bigfoot People.

19
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 2: Now you know, you've been doing this for a long time.

20
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 2: It's so fun to do. That's the only thing you

21
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 2: want to do. Once you've experienced something is you want

22
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: to go back up to the mountains. That's all you

23
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 2: want to do. You don't care if you've got friends

24
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: that are fishing over on to the left, you know,

25
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: regular in the pond over there in the reservoir, and

26
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 2: somebody else fly fishing over here in the river. You know,

27
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter as long as you're out there right

28
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 2: and all you really have to do is just sit

29
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: there and let them come to you. Do you feel

30
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:30,199
Speaker 2: that same way?

31
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 3: Yes, And we're going to blow a lot of a

32
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: lot of people's minds when I tell you it's not

33
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 3: as difficult as you think it is.

34
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 2: If at at all.

35
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 3: If you have the right attitude and you're the you're

36
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 3: the kind of person that they will they will come

37
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 3: around and they will relate to.

38
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 2: They got to like you. But cod bottom line, they.

39
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 3: Got to like you that well. Yeah, and I've kind

40
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: of figured that out. When we get your closer to

41
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 3: to that part, I will I will tell you what

42
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 3: I've learned in my word by research has taken me

43
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 3: because we've crossed over into something that there's a lot

44
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 3: of science backed stuff. And I've been working with Rod Morehead,

45
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: you know, on the conversations with him, and he's come

46
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 3: out with some really good books. But oddly enough, and

47
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 3: I was going to throw this in there. The first

48
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 3: time I ever heard of Coast to Coast AM was

49
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 3: one night I had come in from work from work

50
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 3: in a second shift, and I turned it on. I

51
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 3: heard the Sierra sounds and I was like, what the heck?

52
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 3: So the first time ever I hear the Sierra sounds

53
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 3: that and I hear about Bigfoot. And then it was

54
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: probably two weeks later that I started having the experiences

55
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,239
Speaker 3: on my Honting property. So it was like, but there's

56
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 3: been so many synchronicities, There's been so many things that's

57
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 3: happened that it's almost like it's supposed to happen in

58
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 3: a certain order, and it has.

59
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 2: You know a lot of times too. Well, you're right,

60
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 2: it just kind of falls into place, that's sure. But

61
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 2: a lot of times people will hear these things, and

62
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 2: they'll actually hear what might just be a bigfoot or

63
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: one or two or more, but they just don't know

64
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: anything about it, so they just, you know, it's always

65
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 2: something else. Oh, those are coyotes making that noise, or

66
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 2: that's you know, moose or something right, anything else, but.

67
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 3: That happened to me. For years on our hunting proper.

68
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 3: There was things going on, things that we were listening

69
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 3: to and hearing stories from other people that it never

70
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: once clicked into me that it was something like a bigfoot.

71
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 3: We were hearing those screens at night, and we didn't.

72
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 3: I thought it was a pregnant cow given birth once.

73
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, the sounds that they make are incredible,

74
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 3: and they're so so very loud. There's been so many situations,

75
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 3: and I've been really fortunate to ben I've had over

76
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 3: twenty five really good visuals up to this day. And

77
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 3: the other really fun thing is I've taken people with

78
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 3: me and they've gotten to witness it too. Probably over

79
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 3: one hundred people I've been able to take out and

80
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 3: and actually have them have experiences, including of course Bobulin,

81
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 3: but many many people.

82
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: Good old Bob, he's good. I'm glad. You've got to

83
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: have him come to your place. That's great.

84
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 3: Well, it was, it was kind of I was doing

85
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 3: a commerce up in Washington. I invited them. He said yes,

86
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 3: and to it is word he came.

87
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, and see, Bob Gimlin's got to like you too,

88
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 2: just like the Bigfoot have to like you.

89
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and see. And that's another thing that I

90
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 3: want to really stress everybody. You can't go out looking

91
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 3: for them thinking they're monsters. That's the reason I named

92
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 3: my book forrest Friends of the Night, because I'm trying

93
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 3: to flip that around. There are a type of people

94
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 3: in my in my opinion. Now, everybody's going to have

95
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 3: their their own opinions. You have to get out and

96
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 3: do the work in research, and you have to come

97
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 3: to your own conclusion. I can't force anybody to think

98
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: the way I do, but I can tell you my experience.

99
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I agree. And you know what though, and

100
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 2: I think you'll agree to this as well. They have

101
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: their own individual personalities. Yes, some are nicer than the others.

102
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 2: Some apparently smell better than others, Some have longer hair,

103
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 2: but their behaviors are different. Some Hey, you might have

104
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: made one mad, or you might walk in on one

105
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 2: that's you know, going to the bathroom out there, and

106
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: they're like, hey, back off, dude.

107
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: You know.

108
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 3: The thing that I've learned is the higher up the

109
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 3: hierarchy you get in there and there, I call them,

110
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 3: it's a clan to me. And I'll tell you some

111
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 3: really amazing things here in a little bit. But the

112
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 3: group leader, the Klan leader, his name is Toshikinakhen, and

113
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 3: Toshinaken when you come into his presence, you get a

114
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 3: little bit of an uneasy feeling. You don't get the

115
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 3: same feeling when you're in front of him as you

116
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 3: do some of the other clan members simply because he

117
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 3: demands respect. And when you come there, you've got to

118
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 3: have a different frame of mind. And they pick up

119
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 3: on your energy, Connie, And that's the key to this

120
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 3: whole thing. They know a person's energy.

121
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 2: Oh, they know your mind, they know.

122
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 3: Your thoughts, absolutely, they know your mind. All of that

123
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 3: happens through a vibrational energy or quantum energy quantum physics.

124
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 3: And that's what Ron's been helping me understand. And his

125
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 3: book is amazing. But what all of this stuff came

126
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 3: together for me and I've learned so much, but the

127
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 3: meetings with toshanak and I've had three now, but being

128
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 3: around his plan and what you just said, all of

129
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 3: them have different personalities. I've got I'm kind of going

130
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 3: off of what I had in mind to talk about

131
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 3: a little bit, but I've got to talk about this

132
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 3: one thing Okay, So we had a gentleman that came

133
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: up and we're doing this camp and I'll get back

134
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 3: to how I found this place to camp.

135
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 2: Oh no, it's so good. Hey, you just go with

136
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 2: the flow. Don't worry about the conversation. You just do

137
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: your thing.

138
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 3: So, yeah, you jogged my memory into talking about this

139
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 3: when you're talking about personality. So I'm still trying to

140
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 3: get over meeting Toshiannak and I still have a little

141
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 3: bit of a I'm not really afraid of him, but

142
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 3: I'm still a little bit apprehensive.

143
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: But what does he look like? Is he like twelve foot.

144
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 3: I know exactly. He's ten and a half foot tall,

145
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 3: and we measured he was standing behind a tree limb,

146
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 3: so he was able to go back out the next

147
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: day and measure that tree limb, and he and the

148
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 3: tree limb was ten and a half feet. He was

149
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 3: beaking over the tree limb, so he's a little over

150
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 3: ten and a half feet tall. He was a dark

151
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 3: a dark blonde, almost a brownish color, but in the

152
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,239
Speaker 3: moonlight that color actually looks silver. He looks more whitish

153
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,679
Speaker 3: silver when the moon hits his air. And he also

154
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 3: has on the left on his left shoulder, just above

155
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 3: the chest. He has a water hair that's that's braided

156
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 3: and it comes down probably about six or eight inches

157
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 3: no way. Yeah, And he also has some sort of

158
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 3: insignia there that's like a reddish color, almost like a

159
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 3: tattoo that's in the air. But you can see it

160
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 3: when I see him up closed, you can see that.

161
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 3: It's pretty apparent. But all of that, when you see him,

162
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 3: he demands respect. And that's the feeling that I get.

163
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 3: But let me tell you something that the best part

164
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 3: of my entire experience. And I've been around him and

165
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 3: been in front of them so many times, and there's

166
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 3: so many good experiences, the best was this one. So

167
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 3: we have this gentleman that comes to prove us wrong. Okay.

168
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 3: His brother had been coming to a couple of our

169
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 3: camp ounts and his brother was all into it, and

170
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 3: he hadn't seen anything yet, but he was hearing them

171
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 3: at night. We could hear them the whoops and different things,

172
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 3: and the footfalls in our camp at night when they

173
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 3: go to bed, and they were in their tents. The

174
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 3: bigfoot always come around. They'll push in on the tents,

175
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 3: they'll look in the tent windows. If you've got the

176
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 3: flaps up and Tom camp Trill actually had to look

177
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 3: in at him while he was on his cot and

178
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 3: the ethos started talking to him.

179
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 2: Yes, so.

180
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 3: What happened was his brother Farrell. He's passed away now,

181
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 3: God rest his soul, but such a good man. He

182
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 3: brought his son with him and so when they were there,

183
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 3: they got to encounter and actually his son got to

184
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 3: see a couple with me and Arla, and that was

185
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 3: awesome because his comment was, Hey, we've I've seen more

186
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 3: Bigfoot in fifteen minutes than finding Bigfoot has in two years.

187
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 3: He's coming so so Scott. This guy's name is Scott.

188
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 3: He comes out. He's a federally, he's a judge, he's

189
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 3: elected official, he's not an appointed judge. And he comes

190
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 3: out to previous his brother wrong. So he's making little

191
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 3: jokes and a little marked. Very nice guy, super guy

192
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 3: and one of my best friends ever. But he got

193
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 3: to go on adventures and I took him out personally.

194
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 3: So we're hanging back the group. It's late in the evening.

195
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 3: We'd had a few experiences in camp and it's getting

196
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 3: like twilight, so you got like areas of shadows there,

197
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 3: so We're in camp and I heard something and I

198
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 3: see movement between two trees, and immediately I knew it

199
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 3: was big foot because of the height of the shadow

200
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: that I see pass from one tree to the other.

201
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 2: And there's a feeling too. You pick up the vibe

202
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 2: that they're around two.

203
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 3: Absolutely you know how it feels, don't you. Yeah. Yeah.

204
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 3: So I'm standing there looking and all of a sudden,

205
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 3: I see this teeny little head pop up over a bush,

206
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 3: probably fifteen feet away. It's a small beecause he's about

207
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 3: four feet tall. He looks up. I see those big

208
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 3: eyes and he blinks and he's looking at me, and

209
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 3: then he pops his head back down, and so I

210
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 3: look in Scott. I said, you see that? He said, yeah,

211
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 3: I saw that. Was that a monkey? He said, what

212
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 3: do you have on this property? I said, Scott, just

213
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 3: stand here and watch. Don't say anything. Stand here and watch.

214
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 3: Let's be quiet. I said, let's not talk. And so

215
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 3: I thought they would like shuttle off when he started

216
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 3: talking to so in a minute, the other one popped

217
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 3: it set up. There was two of them side by side. Now,

218
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 3: when they dropped down below those bushes, you couldn't see them,

219
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 3: but they were playing like peekaboo. Now they did that

220
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 3: two or three times, and then one actually got brave

221
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 3: enough to almost stand up straight up, and he had

222
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 3: a little smile on his face. And I've got this

223
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 3: feeling of like, oh my god, this is adorable. These

224
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 3: little suckers are so cute. And so I'm looking at him,

225
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 3: and Scott's looking at him, his mouth hanging open. He's

226
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 3: like he don't know what to say. Well, about that time,

227
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 3: I catch out of the corner of my eyes and

228
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 3: movement behind me, and so I turned my head and

229
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 3: Scott has fixed that he's looking at these He's fixated

230
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 3: totally on these two little ones. So I turned my

231
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 3: head up slightly to the right, and the mom's standing

232
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 3: ten feet behind us. Oh, she's about it, between eight

233
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 3: and nine feet tall, a big girl. And I look

234
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 3: at her, and when I see her, I'm a little

235
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 3: bit concerned when I seeing that it was a big

236
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 3: foot standard right behind us, because I'm like, the holy smokes,

237
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 3: what's gonna happen? We got two babies in front of us.

238
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 3: What she did was she looked at me and she smiled,

239
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 3: telling them the story because it was so adorable. But

240
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 3: the feeling of love that came over me when she

241
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 3: did that. That melted all the fear I had, and

242
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 3: I've not had any fear since that since that day,

243
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 3: because I felt that she was generally enjoying seeing us

244
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 3: play with our babies and how we were reacting and

245
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 3: how they were reacting back. So that's probably the best

246
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 3: feeling that I've ever had since I've been doing and

247
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 3: I get choked up. I'm almost in tears now just

248
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 3: thinking about the feeling that I had. Turned back around

249
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 3: and I was started to say something to Scott, and

250
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 3: then I noticed a flash to my right. It was

251
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 3: just like a blur, like a shadow, and I turned

252
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 3: back around. She was completely an I don't know where

253
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 3: she went, but she was not there. She was gone.

254
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 3: And then I turned back around and the babies were

255
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 3: gone too. They I never heard them walk off, but

256
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 3: this is happening right in front of us, and just

257
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:16,719
Speaker 3: went in feet and people asked me, do you smell them?

258
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 3: I didn't spell them, she was right there. I didn't

259
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 3: spell anything. At that point in time.

260
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 2: I haven't smelled a bad one. I have not smelled

261
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 2: one bad. There was one time there was a smell,

262
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 2: but there was one of those portatti porta potties right there.

263
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 2: So I'm like, well, that's just the border potty. I mean,

264
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 2: I'd never smelled a bad one like people talk about. Okay,

265
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 2: and I've seen like eight of them.

266
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 3: Okay, you cued me into my next thing that I

267
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 3: was going to talk about. It's like reading my mind

268
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 3: or something.

269
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 2: Okayquatch man.

270
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 3: After I did a lot of research on the internet,

271
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 3: I ran across some Melble catchup. We talked a little

272
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 3: bit here and there, and she pointed me toward Arla.

273
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 3: And Arla is the one that I started talking to

274
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 3: and she's been pretty much my mentor through this thing,

275
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 3: trying to tell me what to do and how to

276
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 3: do it. So and that's where everything kind of started.

277
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 3: So we decided to have this camp out. Well, I

278
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 3: was supposed to find an area and that's where we're camping. Now.

279
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 3: The story I just told you occurred there. But now

280
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 3: before that, it was all on my hunting properties, and

281
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 3: I had a secondary hunting property aside from the first

282
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 3: one that I had all the things that was going

283
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 3: on that we went to that was just across the

284
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 3: Chattoochie River, and I had things happening there, like when

285
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 3: I was married. The second time, my wife got to

286
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 3: see one close up ten feet away and stuck his

287
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 3: head around the tree adder, and they were on that property. Well,

288
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 3: when we moved to that property, I was a bit

289
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 3: relieved because we had just lost our lease, our hunting

290
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 3: lease that we'd had for thirty years. But I was

291
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 3: still apprehensive about the Bigfoot at that point in time. Okay,

292
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 3: I didn't know what to expect. And I had my

293
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 3: son with me, and he was sixteen years old, and

294
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 3: I was more afraid for him in case these things

295
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 3: were dangerous, because you know, we were finding tracks at

296
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 3: this point in time.

297
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 2: Oh he's bait, man, he's bait.

298
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 3: Yes. And and the government worker that I was telling

299
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 3: you about earlier was she worked with me for several

300
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 3: months when I would go out and do my travels.

301
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 3: I've stayed in touch with her because she was just

302
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 3: down the road from our camp, and it's a three

303
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 3: hour drive from my house to there. So my mom,

304
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 3: my mom and dad when they were when they were

305
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 3: able to do it, were down there camping with my son,

306
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 3: and he had he had a situation there where he

307
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 3: ran across the smell at night coming back from the

308
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 3: hunting property that he could smell, and it was it

309
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 3: was really bad. He thought it was like a dead

310
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 3: deer or something. But you know, he searched and couldn't

311
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 3: find anything, but he heard coyote. He's really really bad.

312
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 3: They got the howling all over. So it's getting like dark.

313
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: Now.

314
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 3: He goes in the camper and my dad asked him,

315
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 3: he said, will you please take my little dog? He

316
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 3: had a little dog they took with him out to

317
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 3: use the bathroom, and so he did. He started walking

318
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 3: the dog and he leaves his you know, all his

319
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 3: guns and stuff in the camper and he's walking the dog. Well,

320
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, he gets around just around the

321
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 3: bend from camp and he hears the coyotes cut loose,

322
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 3: and then a stick breaks in front of them, and

323
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 3: he smelled that smell again. Well, now I'm telling this,

324
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 3: I'm relaying this story as he told me. So this

325
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 3: is not my my version of this is what they

326
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 3: what they told me, And I'll tell you where I

327
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 3: was in just a minute. So what happened was he's

328
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 3: standing there and the stick brakes and he sees the

329
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 3: pine trees that are like ten foot hall. They start

330
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 3: parting like back and forth and shaking. Something was walking

331
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 3: to him through the trees and they're planting close together.

332
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 3: This is like, uh, they plan them to make paper,

333
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 3: so they plan them really close togeb together. And so

334
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 3: this thing was walking through the pines and he's seeing

335
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 3: it and he gets they get it gets up close

336
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 3: to him, and he could almost see the movement of

337
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 3: the of the of the At that time, we didn't

338
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 3: know what it was, of the man or whatever he

339
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 3: thought it was. And all of a sudden it starts

340
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 3: running to him. The trees start like flightling back and forth,

341
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 3: and here's sticks breaking and the things coming. It's running
