Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Big for Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron.
In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to
bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've
seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers
to quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,
and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.

(00:20):
These are the voices of the people who've lived it.
To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that
just might change the way you see the woods forever.
So stay with us, all right, Big for Society. You've
got the privilege of talking to Rusty today. Rusty is
an individual who listens to the show, and also he
is a big foot enthusiast ever since he's had his

(00:43):
encounter out there in West Virginia, and he's going to
tell us all about what happened that day. But welcome
to the show, Rusty. How are you doing today, sir?

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Thank you. I'm doing very good.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Absolutely. You know, West Virginia is such a wild state.
There's a lot of activity that goes on out there
regarding the subject. But I would say, you know, feel
free to take us back to you know that day
when you have that sighting.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
All right, Well, it was July seven, two thousand and seven.
It had just turned right after that. It was twelve
o six a in. And I was traveling Alleghany Mountain.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
It's east bound in that way.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
And I was clipping along pretty good and I come
around to turn and there's something's walking up the middle
of the yellow line, and I really couldn't make it
out to start with it. Well, the faster out, you know,
I was making a pretty good clip, and I come
up on it real fast and had slid a couple

(01:52):
of times to get stopped. And about twenty feet from
that thing, I realized what it was. And it was huge.
It was probably at least eight ten foot tall, six
at least six feet across the shoulders, and the face
didn't have no hair on it, but it had great

(02:15):
big yellow eyes shining, and they was white apart. And
this thing had a pushed up nose with nostrils flared,
and it was more a blacker than anything that I've
ever seen. And like I said, no hair on his face,
great big, wide, tight lip mouth, and its head set
right down on its shoulders it had brown fur. Couldn't

(02:39):
see no ears, I guess for the fur, but it
had fingernails. I didn't notice that. And the hair hung
down underneath its mass of arms, about six to eight
inches long. And the chest hair looked completely different from.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
The rest of the hair.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
It was like wooly and I don't know, greenish, maybe
from where he had been eating and not cleaning up.
And it had like an ivy vine that went from
the right shoulder down to the left hip. I don't
know how he had it attached, but I was real
close to it and really was trying to pay different

(03:18):
attention to the other features. And the chest was massive,
you could see the muscle of bulging, and it had
it had arms like tree trunks. I mean, it could
like pick up too deer underneath its arms and walk
off with no trouble whatsoever. And the legs was humongous,

(03:40):
great big feet. And it stood there for a good
little bit and we checked each other out. Now how
it seen me, I don't know. Maybe by the globe
of my dish lights because they're nocturnal. And directly this
was at White's Run right before you get there, coming eastbound,

(04:00):
and there's a big wide spot there, and I let
my lights follow it's all as it went over the embankment.
And as it went over the embankment, I noticed its
feet how big they was, and hair puffed up around
its feet, like hair was longer than its feet. Maybe

(04:20):
that's why they don't leave no tracks. But you could
see it go down over, and when it went down over,
it gave me a sideway snarl. And it had horse
horse like teeth, but it did have dog teeth. And
he was a little on the yellow side. And that's
that's the last I've seen of him. But seeing something

(04:43):
coming around to turn like that and you think you're
going to run over somebody or something, it gives you
a drop gut filling and your legs go.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
And I mean just a nimble as can be.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
We checked each other out, and that thing never took
its out off me, even as it walked off, like
it could see me. And that's about It had brown
wrinkly skin on his space crew, his eyes, forehead wrinkles,
just like we got no no facial air.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
It had a big mug like an eight. And this
thing was massive.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
It had to weigh eight hundred one thousand pounds and
that's probably a little on the light side.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
I slid right up to it.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
I slid sideways one way, let off, and slid right
up to it, about twenty feet away. And it was
so close that I had to turn my high beams
down on low beams to get a better focus.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
So how did you feel when so you slam on
the brakes, you're finally able to stop your car, your
vehicle about you said, twenty feet away? What emotions were
you feeling when okay, your car stopped. You're looking at it.
It's right there in front of you.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
For a few seconds, I thought I was in a
movie or something. My stomach hit the floor, my legs
went nimble. I had I had a piece I could
I could have been the right between the eyes. But
you don't do that kind of stuff when you got
a live animal and you don't want to, you know,
you don't want to prove that it's a live animal

(06:29):
by shooting it. But if it had been a few
more seconds, it had probably been bigfoot burger.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
That could have ended up pretty bad for the both
of you. What were you driving again at that time?

Speaker 3 (06:41):
I had I had a little red Ranger for four
wheel drive, pickup truck.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Okay, yeah, I was coming along here a pretty good cliff.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
And if you're ever buy there, it's a we'ro out
thirty three and it's a white run. It turned off
the it turned off to the right the way I
was going. If you're going west, it turns off to
the left and it never left no tracks down over

(07:11):
the hill.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Is this by Seneca Rocks.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
Yes, it's very close to Centical Rocks. The closest town
you would be coming that way would be one Go
and there's not much there, just a few houses.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Okay, so you're out in the sticks and it looks
like I'm looking at a top of graphic. Were you
also having to go over mountains on that road as
well at the same time?

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yes, yes, there's Rich Mountain, there's Middle Mountain, and then
there's Allegany Mountain. There's like three different mountain ranges, and
and Dolly Sods is on the Petersburg side oversee that way,
and then you got Spruce Snob Lake on the right
side of it. And there's many, many, many miles that

(08:04):
people was probably never been. It's so rough a territory
they could get where they wanted to go.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
But you couldn't.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
Absolutely, So you're in a remote area. You're also the
exact time you said is twelve oh six am, So
this is middle of the night.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
It's it's dead at night. I mean it was.

Speaker 3 (08:27):
If you look up July seven, two thousand and seven,
it'll tell you the weather. It was crystal clear. Sometimes
there's patches of fog to there, but I mean it
was just crystal clear as can be. You could see
the red tint in his arms underneath the thir that
hung down six eight inches long.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
How was it that you were that you're able to
remember the exact time that you had this sighting.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
I had just happened to look at my clock on.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Dash, gotcha. So it just burned it right into your memory. Yeah? Absolutely?

Speaker 3 (09:06):
Oh yeah, yeah, this is burning. It's burning. It's like
a picture. I wish i'd have had a camera. I
didn't have a cell phone or nothing.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
I didn't.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
I do carry a piece with me, But you, like
I said, you can't. You can't shoot something like that,
not just to prove it lives. Right, I'm gonna take
one of them first.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Now, I want to make sure that I heard a
few things right in your description. So you saying it
was a yellow eye shine or the color of the eyes,
or was it a glowing eyes or.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
The eyes were bright yellow like hoodowls.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
I mean they shine like rood signs.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
White apart just saying had a head size of bushel basket.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Oh man, so bushel basket.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
It was mass. It was mass.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
Yeah, I'd say two and a half three foot around,
Like I said, the shoulders for six at least six foot.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
You could see the muscles.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Bulging up underneath its fur, her hair, or whatever you
want to call it.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Did you get any any ideas as if you were
looking at a male or a female of the species.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
It's a male. It was a male.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Species, gotcha. You also mentioned, and I've never heard this
detail ever in any of my interviews anyways, So there wasn't,
you said, an ivy vine that ran from its shoulder
to its hip.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
It's right shoulder, come off for around it's right shoulder
down to its left hip. I don't know how it
was attached or what it was for or if he
was the leader.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
I knew it was a big one. It was huge.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
It took up three foot on each side of that
yellow line. So it was at least six foot wide
at the shoulders, and it was just massive. Its arms
was longer than its knees, and it was walking right
straight up the middle of the road. Wasn't worried about
a thing until I started scratching at tires and rolled

(11:27):
up on it, and then it just happened to look up.
That's when I've seen them big old eyes shining you.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
You have a very interesting sighting here because a lot
of people are able to see it walk from left
to right, but you're actually able to see it walking
up the middle of the road towards you and walk off.
That's true. That's true. So you did have the walk
off as well, But that that walked towards you on

(11:57):
the yellow line, were you able to know anything about
the way that it was stepping or moving towards you?
Like the gate of.

Speaker 3 (12:07):
It, it had its head down. I didn't notice that
until the tire started sliding.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
That's when it looked up.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Did it seem to walk the same way that a
human would walk or was it?

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Oh? Yes, it was my feetle will was all get.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Out, got it. And let's say if you were able
to see tracks of the way that it was moving,
how would you describe those tracks, like how would they
be placed either in a line or by each side
by side or by side.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
They wouldn't come.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
They wasn't going like a fox travels like in a line.
These things here was. I mean, I even seen air
puff up then as it was walking up. But it
was taken pretty good strides and it was just walking
I'd say at least six foot strides.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
I got good detail.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
I know why I paid attention as I was sliding
toward it, because I thought, oh, no, here we go.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Did you have or did you do you happen to
notice when it when you slid towards it, and then
it went from looking down on the ground to looking
towards you. Did it have any like reaction emotion to
seeing what was coming towards it?

Speaker 3 (13:32):
No? No, it just looked up and its eyes was
bright yellow. And then that's when I noticed the news.
It was fluttered and fooshed up like a gorilla, and
it had a real wide, tight lip mouth, sort of
a mug. No hair, didn't have hardly no hair around

(13:54):
the space. Maybe some eyebrows, but other than that, it
didn't have no facial hair around its mouth. Lips started
underneath its chin and went down and the chest hair
was completely different than the rest of it.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
That's right, because you were saying there was it was
a different color. But also the hair looked different, right.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
It was, yeah, like woven, sort of like we got
straight hair on our legs and color hair on her chest.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
That's the way that I could put it.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
Absolutely, As you'd mentioned that, there was a time when
you did actually get to see its teeth, and you
describe them as dog teeth. Could you share a little
bit about what you mean by dog teeth.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Yeah, it had canines the rest of the teeth.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
It gave me a sideway snarl as it went down
over the hill. I don't know if it's because I
followed it off the road or it was mad, or
it was a gesture, but it gave me. And it
had a big, wide mouth, so it had flat tea
just looked like a horse would have big yellow, square teeth.

(15:15):
And then all to the side it had them dog
teeth uppers and lowers and they was pretty good size.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Okay, so a row of horse like teeth, but also
some canines as well, And you're saying more than one
on either side.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
Yes, it had.

Speaker 3 (15:35):
It had canines, well, at least on the one side.
I didn't see the other side. It's got canines like
we got.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
What would you estimate the length of those canines to be?

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Wow, I couldn't even cook. Maybe two inches. Wow. It
had huge It had huge teeth.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
There's a lot of details in your citing that I
have just I've never run across. It is really really interesting.
Have you ever heard of any other encounters happening in
that area where you had yours?

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (16:12):
Yes, yes, I've heard the counters in before. As a
matter of fact, I rode back with my buddy a
couple of weeks later. We rode out that road and
it comes out over in Whitmer and Joe and he said,
him and his buddy was camping and they was eighteen
foot tracks. And he got out and measured them and

(16:34):
they was six foot heeled of toe. And he said
he knew drake in what it was.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
And I got a.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Friend that he swears up and down that he could
tell you his stories about three of them. And one
of them wasn't very far from where I lived.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
Is it pretty common for people in this area to
actually get visual sightings like you were able to get
that day.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
And nobody he's ever got a sighting like I have
not to my knowledge. If they did, they they haven't
talked about it.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Would you ever want to see what you saw that night? Again?

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Oh? Yes, most definitely with a camera.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
And why would that?

Speaker 3 (17:21):
I mean I had, I had, I had enough time
to make a movie that thanks to Dursius Long.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
How many how many minutes do you think you had
of actually looking at it before it walked off on
you all?

Speaker 2 (17:37):
At least four or five?

Speaker 3 (17:38):
He just stood there, Like I said, I had high
beams on for a little bit and then I turned
them down and I had my windows down. It was
a nice, one clear night. I made a few whoops,
crewed like a rooster. I made a few crew calls, and.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
It just see.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
And then I even asked so while I was standing
in the middle of the road, but there was no response.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
Okay, R see. So that's very interesting. So while it's
in front of you in the road, you are starting
to make a different calls at it. So when you're
doing the calls, it's not responding in any way.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
No response, just checking me out. Had its size bled
right on mine.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
That's almost a little bit unsettling. I mean it's it's
not even budgeting mentally, it's just like, what is this well,
I mean, if you're in a vehicle, it's probably if
it's not used to vehicles, it's it's probably pretty confused
as to what's going on. But that's kind of me
just thinking there. And then also you started talking or

(18:49):
yelling to it correct right right.

Speaker 3 (18:53):
I was because I've heard people in Gillie suits and
if somebody would let you slide up that close in
the guilty suit, they would have had pretty dumpy pants.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
You could tell now the eyes the way how far
parked eyes was big, yill I mean they was.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
Big as silver dollars or bigger. And this nose is
real wide, pooshed up flar nose wide wide mouth Flaire
crossed it smug. It was just Stapel like, there's no
way you could reproduce that.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Here's a really this is a really specific question. But
you did. Yeah, you had a definite few minutes. So
we'll just go to a shot. So so picture the face
and then picture the nose, and you've got the the
underneath of the nose, and then if you keep going down,

(19:54):
eventually you're going to get to the top of the
upper lip. How much space is between those two things? Approximately?

Speaker 2 (20:03):
No, it had its lips was tightly sealed.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Okay, so that the lips are tightly sealed, but is
there a lot of so let's let's imagine like a
a guy has a mustache, right, and then he shaves
his mustache off, So that area of skin where the
mustache was, and it's kind of got like a little
it's called the fil trum. How how long is that

(20:29):
area just above the upper lip?

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Not very long? Okay, not very long.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
I'd say no more than three eighths of an inch
or something. It was tightly lipped and the real wide
I don't know if it was cause it was mad,
or I caught it off guard or what it was,
but it had a tight lip mouth.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
What shape would you describe the actual head as being.

Speaker 3 (21:02):
Well, a lot of people say they're conical, But unless
it was on the backside of its head where I
couldn't see, I didn't see a whole great, big, conical head.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
It was more like bigg and round and huge.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
Bigging round and huge. Absolutely, Now this is really interesting.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
And it had a hair enough to cover its ears
because I look for him.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
I want to get back to the vine. That was
a crust pretty much across its chest right right, How
wide across? Is this like a vine where it might
have been woven with other vines or was it a
thick vine? Very thin? Do you remember any DJs?

Speaker 3 (21:47):
Just just looked like one ivy vine like you'd pull
piece of ivy off of a barn. And it was
attached from its right shoulder around to its left hip,
and it didn't slip off, move or nothing when it walked.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Off, and nothing attached to that ivy that you were
able to see.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Nothing.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
No, I don't know how it was attached, but it didn't.
It didn't move off of where it was placed.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Or just say it a different way. It didn't have
anything hanging from the ivy that you could see.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
No, No, it was tightly fixed.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
How would you describe how big its hands were.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
About four times out size?

Speaker 1 (22:36):
Yeah, that's that's that's it.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Hit.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
It had huge, It had huge hands. It was five
fingers or it was four fingers and a thumb. Okay,
I never got to see no toes hair was longer
on its feet and that's why that that's I guess
that's why it puffed up as it walked off or
was walking toward me.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
Besides the vine, did it have anything else that was
on its person that was covering things or you're really
just looking at a huge something that is covered in
hair or fur.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
It was just covered in hair and fur. And the
vine wasn't super size of any kind. Just looked like
a piece of ivy that you pulled off of a barn.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
This is awesome.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
It was massive. Yeah, this thing's just was massive. I
mean even around its hips and legs was massive. I
mean it's just like your stomach dropped to your feet
and your legs wielded.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
Well, that was the reaction that you had when you
saw that we were looking at.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yes, indeed, after I got stopped from all the.

Speaker 3 (24:01):
Adrenaline, because you know, you can't ever tell somebody just
might be walking up the road for attention. But there
was no place light or nothing until I got up
close enough to notice that day was something walking up
the middle of the road.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Did it as you saw it walking away? Did it
have a tail at all?

Speaker 2 (24:25):
No? No tail? Gotcha big old butt?

Speaker 1 (24:30):
Yep? Right, Well, I mean that's what people say, and
it needs that in order to be able to pretty
much move and need those muscles. So that makes total
sense to hear that.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
It didn't hang on to any cheat, mim or nothing
as it walked down. And now the state has got
a wide spot there where they done blue gravel and stuff,
and they still was no tracks. It never hung on anything.
It just walked right down over And as soon as

(25:04):
it started down over, it turned around and it kept
its eyes on me as it turned around and gave
me a sideway snarl and walked down over. I had
a flashlight, but I wasn't about to go after I
had a piece with me.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
But I don't think it would have stopped it.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
No, especially the way you're you're describing it. I mean,
I think you're you're right on there. So after you know,
it walks and it disappears into the woods, walks away.
So then what happens after that? How do you or

(25:45):
what happens after that?

Speaker 3 (25:48):
I sat there and collected my thoughts for about five minutes. Well,
I let my lights follow it off the road in
that wide spot, and I'm sure there's a creek that
runs in to white run down through the off the
mountain and I'm sure that it walked down over and
stooped over, so I couldn't see it because it was
way taller than that bank would have been.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
How long was it before you told someone what had happened?
After this?

Speaker 3 (26:18):
It took me about an hour to get to Petersburg
and I called my dad and we talked for about
four or five hours that night about it, because.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
He was supposed to have went with me.

Speaker 3 (26:31):
It was a couple of truck drivers said that they
went over through there that night and seen one or
maybe two.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
But they wouldn't talk about it. Oh wow, other people
thinking they're crazy. You know, of course there are some
crazy people over that there for it.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
So to make sure I heard that right. So you're
saying there are other people that also had sightings in
the same area on the same night.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
Yeah, they was.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
The lady on be A f r Oh said that
her and her daughter was going fishing and camping that night, said,
but after their encounter, they didn't go camping, but they
went fishing that night.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
That should be on b A f r Oh. I
put mine on b A f r oh and they
didn't didn't write it up.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
Okay, that's interesting. So there's a there's a b fro
O report from the same time period, same day or
same pretty close evening.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
Ye should be a few last seven thousand and seven.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
That's awesome.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
I don't know what they've seen it.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
So you talked to your father for multiple hours. How
did he react to you when you shared what you
experienced and what you saw that night?

Speaker 2 (27:55):
Well, he sort of couldn't believe it, but he did believe,
you know. He just we stood and he went with me.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Gotcha.

Speaker 3 (28:05):
I was just so excited that I just told the
story over and over and over again.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
You know, they asked me details like you did. So
I've already told him when.

Speaker 3 (28:22):
You would never think in a million years it's something
walking up the middle of the road like that. We've
got porcupines here, I've never.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Seen one, gotcha.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
And then to see something as as rare as this,
even rareer than than a porcupine, is pretty incredible. Way
right after so individuals, after they have sightings, it seems
like they react in very different ways. Some people have

(28:55):
to deal with traumatic flashbacks PTSD. Some people get entirely
into the subject and they just go after and they're like,
I got to read everything, watch everything. Do you feel
like it affected you in any of those ways or
maybe something completely different?

Speaker 2 (29:13):
Oh? Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
I don't go out hunting in the night, no more.
I don't go coon hunting. If I go peaching at
along the river, I carry a pretty good sized piece
with me and I don't do I ain't gonna let
something like it catch up with me, you know, I

(29:35):
at least try to stop it if it went to attack.
But I don't think they're violent. I think they're more
curious than they are anything.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
That's that's interesting. Have you Have you heard any accounts
of people having interactions in West Virginia where it was
more aggressive or you feel it it lines up with
the way you're looking at it.

Speaker 3 (30:02):
And they probably just catch a glimpse of it, or
you know, and then it stoops down or it's gone,
or because they'd like to stay hid. I just caught
it at the right place at the right time. But
why it was walking up the middle of the yellow line.
Maybe it could see that yellow line since or so nocturnal,

(30:26):
they're a very nocturnal animal.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Yeah, I think you're absolutely right on that, even though
there are you know, daytime sightings a lot of stuff
does happen during the night. Regarding this, after you had
this sighting, did this affect you in any ways that
are out of the ordinary, or did you start to
have things happen at your home that are that were

(30:51):
just strange anything like that.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
I've had strange things happen around my house all the time.
JESU swinging.

Speaker 3 (31:01):
I've got pictures of keys of swinging, and I was
standing there. I even had mom and dad four miles
away to come up and they were still swinging. But
you know, I lived one clay ground who knew what
it was. And I've seen lights one night. I've seen
lights of a creek.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
We was all.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
Drinking beer back when I was young, way in eighties,
and I mean.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
The whole field lit up.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
I'm like miles around, like he was underneath a operating
table light. It lasted for about seven seconds. You could
even see the minnows and the rocks in the water.
Put her fire clear out. You couldn't see the fire
we had built. Took a few minutes forest adjust. We

(31:48):
looked at each other and just said, we're the f
out of here.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
It makes sense. So not only do you have this
this sighting of what you saw in the road, But
you've also had a lifetime of just weird experiences that
really like crazy.

Speaker 3 (32:08):
Yeah, it's crazy, you know. I just sort of try
to brush them all. That Bigfoot I can't brush off.
It's learning in my mind. I wish, I wish I
had a picture or somebody would draw a picture.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
I've seen pictures.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
On online that look very similar to it.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
That's interesting. Do you remember where you had seen those
pictures that look similar to what you saw?

Speaker 2 (32:36):
No, just one of the websites.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Gotcha this this same area. Is it also known for
other creatures being seen besides Bigfoot? Or is Bigfoot the
main thing that you have to be aware of around here?

Speaker 3 (32:53):
Well, they said that they've seen mountain lions over in
that territory, and a lot of people don't believe.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
That through the mountain lines around. Or a black panther.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
I've got a cousin that just swears up and down
and he's a gospel going church guy that he said
he was a black panther. And the guy said, oh,
the bear. He said, unless of the bear had a
six foot tail, it wasn't so. Mountain lions, you know,
they're they're traveling or they get run out of their

(33:25):
territory by force fires and look for new food. So
I guess we would do the same. Squirrels do the
same thing. If you've ever seen squirrels in a line,
what they're doing. They're going from one tree to the
next by collecting that food and bearing it as they

(33:45):
go along. My granddad told me that a long time ago.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Russia. I just want to say thank you so much
