Tonight’s guest, Chris, had his first Bigfoot-related experience in 1989. As you’ll hear, if you listen to tonight’s show, many more were to follow. When Chris had his first experience with a Sasquatch, he was 19 years old, at the time, and had already spent a lot of time in the woods. The night he had his first encounter, he had decided to solo camp on a powerline section, not far from his girlfriend’s house. After turning in for the night, he was laying in his tent when he started to hear branches breaking about 100 yards away. As he laid in his tent, listening to the commotion, he could tell that whatever it was, was approaching his camp. Making matters even more intense was the fact Chris could hear that, whatever it was, it was walking bipedally. Things were about to get much more intense! We hope you’ll tune into tonight’s show, so you can listen to Chris recount the multitude of experiences he’s had with Sasquatch over the years. If you do, you’ll understand why he suffers from PTSD, due to his experiences with them.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
My Bigfoot Sightings began in nineteen eighty nine. I was
a nineteen year old wild child. Spent many years in
the woods hunting, fishing, camping. I met a girl back then,

(01:24):
and she lived on this It was a dirt road
back then, now it's paved. She lived towards the end
of it, near a state forest, and there was only
maybe one street light on the whole road. Very dark road,
rural out in the country. Not too many people lived

(01:46):
in that area, maybe twenty to thirty at tops, maybe more.
She asked me to come up to the house one
night and you know, have cookout, swim in the pool,
you know all that, And so I was sure, yeah,

(02:07):
And she told me she lived on Patty Hollow Road.
I said, oh, I know where that road is. Okay, yeah,
where do you live? I lived out towards the end
of it, all right. So I gathered up my tent
in my sleeping bag and I started walking out to

(02:27):
her house, which was about I'm going to guess, like
five miles maybe from my home. And I brought the
tent and sleeping bag because in case her mom didn't
want me to spend the night for whatever reason, I'd
set up a camp and instead of walking all the

(02:48):
way back to my house in the middle of the night,
I'd just go to my camp. I'd get up in
the morning and go visit my girl. So the night
went well, we visited, we had a good time. The
time came I asked her mother if I could spend
the night, and she denied it. So, okay, no problem,

(03:12):
and I walked down the road to where my camp
was set up. Now my camp I had set up
right off side the road, up on a power line section.
And if you've ever been to New England, our woods
are pretty thick. In some places. You can't see through it,

(03:32):
you can't even crawl through it. It's like a jungle,
it's like a rainforest. It's really thick environment. So I
get up to this power line section, crossed it and
got into the tree line. I found a natural little
opening right there, perfect spot. Set my tent up and

(03:53):
I had no fire, no flashlights, just a tent and
sleeping bag. And I get in my tent, light up
a cigarette and I'm sitting there thinking about the night,
the wonderful night we had in the fawn and the lapse,
and I was really just in a great mood. I

(04:15):
didn't even mind camping out there and not being able
to spend the night with her. I was totally fine
with it. So I finished my cigarette, zipped up the
tent and laid down. And then my feet were by
the door of the tent. As I'm laying on my

(04:37):
back in my sleeping bag. My head was towards the
back and I'm laying there listening to the night sounds
and the owls and crickets, and I started hearing branches
breaking up above me about i'd say maybe one hundred

(04:59):
yards or so. I could hear branches breaking, and I thought, well,
I must have spooked a deer or something while I
was coming up to my camp. Didn't really think too
much more about it. And then I could hear it
like getting closer, like it was continuing and it was

(05:22):
getting closer, and pretty soon I could hear that it
was like it was bipedal. And every time it would
step down on the ground, you know, it would crush
branches and leaves and stuff, buff the ground would shake.
And I was like thinking to myself, is this a

(05:44):
moose coming down to my camp? What what's going on?
And I was real quiet, just listening, and as this
thing's getting closer, which what I thought was a moose,
I realized there's only two steps, not four. Is bipedal?
Is this somebody walk into my camp? How can they

(06:06):
even walk out here? There's no lights, it's pitch black
pretty soon, and it's so close to my tent, my campsite.
Every step, the ground would vibrate and I could hear
this elongated breath that was like somebody on somebody with

(06:33):
bronchitis or asthma, an asthmatic person. But these breaths were
insanely long, like a twenty second inhale and a twenty
second exhale. I mean, it was just it was bizarre.
It was I didn't even know what this was walking

(06:54):
up to my tent and the breathing sound was really bizarre,
and I'm thinking, is this a sick animal? Is what's
going on here? And I didn't say anything. I was
just in my tent listening. My feet are at the door,

(07:15):
and this thing, whatever it was, it walked right up
to the side of my tent and started pushing down
on the top of my tent, right where my head was.
And I'm looking at the tent as it's coming closer
and closer and closer. It's pushing right down to my

(07:35):
face just about and I lost it. I punched whatever
that was pushing through my tent. I backhanded it with
a closed fist, and when I hit it, it felt
like I hit concrete. And when I swung and screamed
at it to get baut of here, it just stood there.

(08:01):
It didn't make another sound. And I was sitting there
in terror. I was so terrified I couldn't move. I
was frozen in my sleeping bag. And it walked about
ten steps to my left, and I am trembling inside.

(08:27):
I am freaking out, like what is going on? I
have no gun, no knife, no flashlight, no nothing. And
I'm a nineteen year old kid who is just like
I'm just sitting there and complete traumatized, like I don't

(08:48):
know what's about to happen, just things gonna come through
my tent. Whatever it is is gonna kill me. It
walked like ten feet to the left and stopped, and
I didn't hear it. I didn't. I didn't see it.
I didn't smell it. I didn't. I was so terrified

(09:11):
to open up my tent and look out. I had
to force myself to pull the zipper down and I
counted on the count of three. On a count of three,
I on zipped my zipper about six inches and looked
outside to where that thing was had walked over to

(09:33):
my left. I'm looking over, I can't see nothing. It's
pitch black out there. There's a little bit of moonlight,
you know, a little bit of starlight moonlight, but it's
dark in the woods. In New Hampshire on some of
these places, these rural country places, you know, just like
anywhere in the country. I bolted out of that tent

(09:55):
and I ran down through the woods. I fell, I
don't know once or twice, did like a tuck and roll,
got back up, running some more, got to the road.
It was only I was only maybe sixty yards from
the road or so. I landed in the road when

(10:18):
I was falling through the woods down onto the road,
and I remember being you know, it hurt when I
fell because I got cut my stuff, the sticks and stuff,
BlackBerry bushes and thorns, whatever it was. It was horrible.
I landed in the road and I was like, oh
my god. And I started running and that thing was

(10:41):
right beside me. As I'm running down the road, this
thing and I'm running full speed. I'm in I'm in
fight or flight mode, and I'm flight mode and I'm
running like I stole something and I don't steal. But
this thing was right beside me, running through the brush

(11:08):
and the thorns and a swamp that was on one
side of the road was a swampy, boggy area, really nasty, thick.
It wasn't even open. It was just thick, nasty, boggy area.
This thing plowed through that like it wasn't even there.

(11:30):
I could hear the giant footsteps as I'm running. This
thing's it sounded like it's walking. It didn't sound like
it was running. It sounded like it was walking. But
I'm running. Every time I stopped to take a breath,
that son of a thing was right there. I was like,

(11:51):
no way, dude. I kept running. I stopped maybe twice
where that thing was paralleling me. Every time I stopped,
it was it. We'd stop right there. I see a
street light coming up, and there is a road off
to the left. That road goes even further out into

(12:12):
the woods and stuff. You know, it's back road. I
get to that. I was telling myself, just get to
that street light where I can see. And it was
right there. I'm talking like twenty five feet off the
road in the swamp, running right beside me. Yeah. A

(12:33):
person couldn't run through that, even with a flashlight on.
It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous what this thing was doing. It.
It was bizarre. It was unhuman. It was I've spent
many years in the woods. I've had moose walk right
up to me. I've had bear run away from me,
you know, I've seen all the local animals and heard

(12:56):
all the local animals. This whatever this was, was nothing
that I had ever encountered in the forest. And this
is right outside. This is like five miles outside of
the center of the small city I live in. This
is right right outside city limits. And this thing I

(13:22):
got to the street light. Anyways, I get to the
street light. This thing was paralleling me, running beside the road,
pacing me. I get to that street light, I took
some breaths, and I just I got a couple of breaths,
and then I hear some branches. I just took off
down the road again, headed towards town, and I'm running,

(13:44):
and I didn't hear that thing beside me, So I'm
thinking that, you know, I don't know, it just turned
around or it stopped or whatever. I don't know if
it left the area or if it just stopped. And
why me keep running? I don't know. But I ran

(14:04):
all the way home. Basically, I walked once I got tired.
Once I got into town, where there was street lights
on the road and more houses, I felt more at ease.
I didn't run anymore. I was just walking really fast,
and I kept looking behind me. But once I got
into an area where there was a lot of houses

(14:26):
and residents, I wasn't looking behind me anymore, and I
was just telling myself, just get home. Oh my god,
oh my god. I'm not going back there again. I
Am never going back there again. No way I get home.
Tried to sleep that night, couldn't sleep. I remember not

(14:47):
being able to sleep well at all. Just kept thinking
about it, just running it over my mind, over and
over and over all night long. I have never in
my days of camping solo, ever had anything come up
to my tent and do what it did. I mean,
I struck it with my hand. It didn't run away.

(15:08):
It just walked like ten steps or and just stood
there waiting for me to I don't know what it
was doing, but I'm talking when I'm talking scared. I
was scared. I don't know if I wet my pants
or not because from running, sweating and all. I don't know,
but I get home. Anyways. I woke up in the

(15:29):
morning and my mother was there and she how was
your night last night? At ran scenees and then I
said it was all right. I didn't want to talk
about it. Where's your Where's all your stuff? Where's your
camping gear and stuff? Fishing pole? I left it? You

(15:53):
left it? Why would you leave it? Why you never
leave your stuff around? That's why did you do that?
Are you going to go back and get it? No,
I don't care about it, I said, I don't care
about it. I'll just give more or whatever. I don't care.
My mother thought that was the oddest thing, because she
knows me. She knows how I cherish my belongings, whatever

(16:19):
I have, especially my outdoor gear, I cherish it's it's
all special stuff to me. I don't let people use it.
I don't loane things out unless somebody desperately needs it,
like you know, obviously if they need help or something, obviously.
But you know, so she thought that was strange that

(16:39):
I didn't go back, but I left my stuff in
the woods. I would never do that. We didn't litter,
you know, we brought up right. You know, we didn't litter.
We don't kill things, We don't eat. We treat each
other and treat strangers nice, and be polite to people,
and be honest, work hard. And that's how I was

(17:04):
raised you don't sash your parents. You have respect for
your grandparents and your parents and strangers and people, and
you carry yourself in a professional manner. And I came
from a family that know we that's how we were raised.
And my parents were my great grandparents and my grandparents.

(17:27):
They were all dairy farmers and lived on farms and
had big families, and family traditions are strong in my
family even to this day, in this day and age,
we still live by those firm, strong family traditions. So
that was my first encounter with something strange back in

(17:54):
nineteen eighty nine, and it was in Claremont, New Hampshire.
It's actually west Claremont, New Hampshire, towards the Connecticut River,
probably a mile or so, a couple miles from the
Connecticut River, which is a beautiful river valley that cuts

(18:16):
through New Hampshire and Vermont. It's the border and it's
full of wildlife, full of it's great for boating, fishing, hiking, camping,
the whole nine yards. It's a beautiful place. I've called
it my home my whole life. I've been all around
the country. I've been to Alaska, I've been to Canada,

(18:37):
I've been to Jamaica, I've been to places some people
haven't been, and this place always was home to me,
and it always is. I live at the foothills across
the river from a Scotney Mountain, and that is where
I had my second encounter. Approximate lead I'm guessing ten

(19:03):
years after my first, maybe a less than that, maybe
six six years. Seven years after my first encounter, I
was working at a Scotney Mountain, which is in Brownsville, Vermont.

(19:23):
It's the steepest midnadnock in the East Coast. It's a
little over three thousand feet. Everything from halfway point of
the mountain is double diamond trail. They don't allow machinery
anywhere past the halfway point. I know that because I

(19:47):
made snow on the mountain. For nine years. I was
a part of mountain maintenance, snowmaking lift operations. I did
multiple tasks there, multiple jobs, met a lot of great people.

(20:07):
It's a great job for anyone. It's a career. It's
a great career for anyone. If you love the outdoors,
it's a great career for you. If you're young and
love the outdoors, it's a great career for you make
a career out of it. I worked on multiple mountains
in my career. I've worked at a Scotney Mountain, Sunopy Mountain,

(20:33):
Okemo Mountain, and Ragged Mountain. Scotney and Okemo Mountain are
in Vermont, the others were in New Hampshire. I was
known as one of the best snowmakers in that area

(21:00):
and I was working at Mount of Scotney back it
was in through the nineties, all the way up through
the nineties, and we had a six or seven man
crew I believe at the time, on the night crew,

(21:21):
and there was the same amount, or possibly a couple
more on the day crew. I had worked both at
this point in time. I was working the night shift,
which was seven to seven seven pm to seven am,
and I would usually work an hour over to help

(21:41):
clean up and whatnot towards the end of the night.
So there was one night up there and it was
back in I'm going to say the month was January February,
because snow guns were in full operation and we had

(22:03):
a lot going on one trail that night, probably like
twenty guns, eighteen guns maybe going on one trail, So
we were just focusing on that one trail. At this
particular night, the guys had gone up on their gun run.
We had a man down there at the base. His name,

(22:24):
I'm not going to say his name, but he was
like our lift guy. He would run us up the
lift where we needed to go, and he would keep
the compressor full of fuel, make sure everything's going good
down at the base, water pressures, make sure that, you know,

(22:44):
make sure everything's running for us. So we're up there,
the guys went up on their gun run and they
come down and me and this young he was about eighteen,
fresh out of high school, gung ho, great guy. Anything

(23:08):
you ask him to do, he'd do it. He climb
a tree, He'll climb a tree. Whatever you needed, dig
a hole, dig a hole, turn some wrench, turn, you know,
whatever you needed. The boy he was right there. He
was one of my best knowmakers. There was a few
of us that were like that. And me and him

(23:29):
were at the mid station checking the pressures, cleaning up
some frozen hoses, blowing them out with the airline. We
had a bunch inside that would be thawing out. And
we periodically, as we're taking our gun runs, stop and
you know, check the pressures. Write all your write, all

(23:51):
your pressures down, clean up place, grab some hoses, wrap
them up, YadA YadA YadA. So me and me and
Joe we're in there doing that and the guys come
down through their gun run and they walk by, and
you know, hell, hey, talk to you, you know, got
the information and whatnot. How do they look? How's guns look?

(24:13):
How's the snow look? Good? Good? All right, good? Going
down to the bottom. Everybody can dry off for a
half hour or so and we'll get back to it.
And that was the routine. You do a walk down
the mountain, checking all your snow, guns and your snow,
making sure nothing's buried up, and the snow looks good,

(24:35):
snow is the right quality snow. And you're working with
the wind, you're working with the elements, you're working with everything.
And as they get down the mountain, they get to
the bottom after their gun run and they go into
the base lodge and they take off all their wet clothes,
put a minute, dryers and dry off for a minute. So,

(24:56):
you know, thirty minutes or so, have a cup of coffee, whatever,
warm up, maybe get some food in you, whatever you
needed to do. And then after that thirty minutes or so,
back up on the hill. You go for another hike
down the mountain, checking your guns. That was the routine
all night, for twelve hours. So the guys did that,

(25:21):
and they're all downstairs warming up, and I get a
call from the guy who was running the lifts for us,
because I told him where all sat. You can go
down below and you know, get a coffee or whatever,
warm up, and we'll be ready to go in about
thirty minutes or so. You can run us back up

(25:43):
the lift. All right. So he was a he was
a Vietnam veteran. He had shin splints, so he would
take his time down the mountain. When he walked, he
took one step at a time, and that and bothered
me a bit. Of course, he's a great guy, great
guy to work with. So he said he was headed

(26:08):
down and said okay. Me and Joel continued bluffing up
the hoses and cleaning stuff up, and we're in the
pumphouse at mid station. Then that's about five minutes, go by,
five to ten minutes, maybe goes by, and I get
a call on the radio and I won't say names,

(26:33):
but he says, I can give you the radio handle.
My radio handle was mad dog. So he calls on
the radio, shuch and such a mad dog, such and
such a mad dog come in and I answered it, yeah,
go ahead. He's like, hey, on your way down, watch

(26:57):
out for that moose in front of me. Okay, yeah,
got it. Be careful on your way down. Okay. So
he I'm looking at my partner and I'm like, there's
a guy drinking or something. I'm like, I've never seen

(27:18):
a moose up this part of the mountain, not saying
that they're not here, but I've worked here in nine
years and I've never seen one. I've never even seen
moose tracks up up this part of the mountain. They're
usually down in the lower ends. But for whatever I was,
you know who knows, you know who knows. I don't

(27:40):
know if it was a moose that ran in front
of him, or if it was a black bear. We
got big black bear up here. Now. Mind you, we're
in middle of the night, on the side of a
mountain there ski was or mountain, middle of the night,
middle of the winter. So it's not a bear. What
could it be. I'm thinking to myself, I don't know.

(28:03):
I'm thinking I don't know what he's talking about. I
had never seen no moose up here. I don't know
what the guy's talking about. Whatever. Me and my partner been.
The stuff we were doing, we thought, you know, we
thought like, well, we didn't know what to think. I
don't know what the guys saw was talking about. Huh whatever.
So we're just walking. We're walking down to the base

(28:25):
lodge to you know, go warm up. By the time
I get down there, I can tell the mother guys
to suit up and you know, go on another get
on another run, and get on it. So me and
my partner are walking down the trail. We take this
little side cut trail off to the left and that

(28:46):
goes to another trail which ends up It's pretty much
once you get to that trail, you walk down that trail,
you come out right in front of the base lodge.
So I took that was the route I always took,
So I that's why I just took that route. And
we get to we walked that little trail. We walked

(29:09):
that little shortcut trail to this other trail, and once
we got to that trail right with the trees, you know,
we come out of the tree line and we're on
that trail. We hear this sound that was like an
air raid siren, but yet it was like almost like

(29:33):
somebody was imitating an air raid siren. I don't know,
I can't. It started out low sounding, went up to
a high, high pitch, and then it declined back down
to a low pitch. When I'm talking like, this thing
was loud. This thing echoed through Brownsville Valley like the

(29:58):
whole town. You could hear this thing over the snow
guns that are going off up on the hill. I mean,
this thing had some volume to it for me to
even hear that. We both stopped and we looked behind us,
like up the mountain, you know, like where we just
came from mid station. We looked it was coming from

(30:20):
mid station. So we look up there with our spotlights.
We're about four hundred yards away from it at this
point from mid station, and we shine in our spotlights
up through the mountain looking We're looking for eyeshine, We're
looking for anything, you know, we can't see. There's nothing.
We don't see nothing, and just see screamed again. And

(30:45):
I'm talking, this thing was ten feet behind us. We
didn't hear nothing come up on us. We didn't see
nothing come up on us, but this thing did the
exact same scream that we had heard seconds prior. And

(31:07):
I'm talking every organ in your body vibrating. I'm talking
my eyeballs vibrated, my heart, my stomach, my lungs, my everything,
everything vibrated. I had never felt anything like that except
standing in front of a full stack at a concert.

(31:28):
You know, the bass player, you know. I mean, like
this was over one hundred decipels, way way way over
one hundred decipels. I mean, this thing rocketed through you,
like whatever they call that infrasound or ultrasound, infrasound, whatever

(31:53):
they call it infrasound. Because everything vibrated. You didn't just
hear this thing, you felt it, and it ripped right
through me and my partner, and we jumped right out
of our skins. We i mean, flashlights went flying, and
we are peeling it down the mountain. We are running
for our lives. And I'm talking. When you're a snowmaker,

(32:17):
you got co flat boots on, which is like ski
boots with boot tread or ski adaptable. They're mountaineering boots,
and to try and run in those things is hard
it's it's very difficult to try and running those for
a long period of time. Well, we ran with our

(32:39):
gear on, and I was about eight feet in front
of my partner and he's screaming, stop. Wait, wait, it's
gonna get me. It's gonna get me. It's gonna kill me. Wait,
it's gonna kill me. And I didn't dare look behind me.
But I'm ashamed of that. I'm ashamed of not looking,
stopping and looking. But I was a twenty something year

(33:02):
old guy who had just experienced something I'd never experienced before.
It was terrifying, and we were both running for our lives.
And like I said, I was a little bit quicker
than the guy. And I was about eight feet in
front of him, running full speed down that mountain and
he's screaming at the top of his lungs that this

(33:25):
thing's gonna grab me. Hell, and I just kept yelling
at him, don't fall down, keep running, don't fall down.
We're almost there. And we were almost we were just
you know, we're headed right for the base lodge. And man,
I don't know if he fell or if he slowed
down or what happened, but I come busting through the

(33:49):
door of the base lodge. Everybody's hanging out in the
room with their music going blasting. We were screaming the
whole way down the mountain. And I go into my
office and I'm shaking like a leaf, and I'm just
telling myself what was that? And I'm sitting there just
drilling myself. Oh, I can't believe what just happened? What

(34:11):
is that? And I'm trying to pour a cup of
coffee and it's dumping all over me and my gasking.
I was like, I just threw that, gave that up,
and I'm grabbing I'm was like enough. I was like
in a state of like shock. I was like opening
up my office, my desk drawers, and I'm grabbing all
these implements for there. They were to break ice like
a hammer, and I had a homemade ice breaker, and

(34:35):
I had knife, and I had a leatherman and I'm
packing I'm packing up. I'm putting my hammers on and
all these little ice breakers and things and screwdrivers. I'm
like load en up, like ready to go in battle
with something. And then I realized that none of that's
going to do anything to whatever that is. And as

(34:57):
I'm doing all this, and this, this is all happening
in seconds. Mind you. A partner comes busting through the
door and he is completely white from head to toe,
tears of just flowing down his face, and he is
in a state of freaking trauma shock and he is

(35:17):
grab he grabs me and shakes me in front of
all the guys, and I was just like, I grab
his hands. I'm like, dude, let go of me, let
go of me. I don't know, I don't know what
it was, but whatever it is, I mean, I hope
it's gone because we've got to go back up there
in like a half hour. And I couldn't even believe
that I was even saying that or thinking it. But

(35:39):
you know, I'm a hard working man and I was
just thinking about my job and whatever that is. I
hope it's gone. Whatever that thing is, I hope it's
gone because I can't go home right now. I can't
go anywhere. I got all these guns running on the mountain.
I got men i'm watching over. Their lives are in
my hands. My life in their hands when we're running

(36:01):
these guns and doing our job. So I weren't going nowhere.
I mean, I'm running the night crew here, and this
guy looked at me when I said, I don't know
what it is, but we got to go back up there.
He looked at me like I had three heads. And

(36:24):
he's in full crying mode and he's like, you're out
of your freaking mind, dude, I'm never coming up here again.
And he grabs his time card and rips it through
the time pared machine. He busts out through the door
into his jeep, which was open. He had trunk open,
he had stopping peels out of there, peels right out

(36:44):
of the driveway, and he's like like a maniac. He's
doing like a hundred right out of there, swerving. He's
all over the road because there's fresh snow everywhere, and
he is gone, and everybody's looking at me. It's in
the base lodge. They're all looking at at me. What's
going on, guys? What happened with you and him? What's

(37:05):
going on? I was like, he's having a bad night.
We guys, suit up, Guys, suit up. We got to
get up there and check these guns. It's frigging fifteen
fourteen degrees whatever. These guns are like pounding snow like
you can't keep up with it. We got to get
up there and get on these guns. I don't know

(37:27):
what's wrong with him. Never mind him, he'll be back
tomorrow or whatever, and we'll work it out. Let's go.
So everybody's just suiting up. They don't know what just
happened up there. They have no clue what just happened
up there. So everybody's suiting up, and I'm like, all right, well,

(37:48):
I get my gear on, you know, and I'm nervous.
Oh my god, I'm nervous. I'm sweating bullets. And you know, okay,
you know my coworker there, he's gone for the night.
You know, I don't have to worry about him. He's
gone for the night. I don't know where he's you know,
he's headed home. I hope he makes it home safe.
I didn't have a phone or a you know, a

(38:10):
phone to call him his number or anything. But I
weren't thinking of that. I'm just like, okay, I got
to get up to I got to go back up
this mountain. And I'm like, what is going on? Man?
I wish I had a firearm, That's all I kept thinking. God,
I wish I had a firearm. But you can't have
that on the job. You're going the job. You can't
have firearms, you know. So I'm like just I'm riddling

(38:34):
all these things through my head like that as I'm
gearing up and we go up. We did a gun run,
and during that initial gun run, I had my head
on a swivel and I was freaked right out. Man.
I was like, I was ready to hear that thing again,
whatever it was, and I didn't want them. I didn't

(38:55):
want to hear that for the rest of my life.
I was scared to be up there. And when I'm
talking like it was like my first encounter, like that
type of fear. That that like the fear of like
you're gonna die, fear like there's no way around it.
If you don't get out of here, you're gonna freaking die.

(39:16):
That's the fear I had. I felt a little better
with the guys around me, snowmakers, and we're all working
doing our thing, and I was staying with them, you know,
I wasn't lagging behind and picking up someone slack or
you know, just taking my time and doing my work,
you know, doing a proper good job and making sure

(39:38):
all the hoes, you know, and all that. I weren't
doing that. I was right with these guys, like right
with them all the way down the mountain. Come about
seven o'clock in the morning. That was only a few hours,
so I'm guessing like four or five in the four, three,

(40:00):
three or four in the morning is when that incident happened.
The screaming, the air raid sirens, scream, the mother of
all screams. This thing was insane. I had never heard
nothing like it besides an old World War two air
siren that somebody cranks up. So this was inhuman beyond

(40:23):
human capacity, the craziest vocalization that you'd ever hear. And
the infra sound when it vibrated our organs, me and
my coworkers when we were sitting there getting hit with that,
that was the most terrifying thing to me because I
had never felt my eyeballs vibrate, my tongue, my throat,

(40:45):
my everything, everything, And this thing was behind us like
ten feet doing that. I mean, I literally you could
probably feel the breath of that thing. It was so
freaking powerful. So seven o'clock in the morning rolls around.
Nothing else happened besides that one event. Nothing else happened

(41:10):
in the night It was a really scary, freaky night
for me, and I did my gun runs with the
rest of the guys like I normally did, and thankfully
nothing happened again. Then I worked the mountain for a
number of years after that and nothing really crazy like

(41:32):
that happened. But I will tell you we never saw
my coworker again. When he screamed at me that he
was never coming up on this mountain again, that kid promised.
He never did. I've never seen him to this day,
and I don't think anybody else has either, because I

(41:53):
would eventually gotten a hold of him and wanted to
talk about that whole encounter with the guy if he
wanted to. You know, I think about that nowadays. I
think about, you know, what he's doing and and you know,
and how he's doing with it, and does he even
think about it or did he bury it away? Like

(42:14):
when I was a kid, my tent encounter, After that
tent encounter on Patty Hollow Road in Claremont, I kind
of just like, you know, I was a young kid
in life took over and I kind of buried that
away or whatever. After a few days. I kind of
just like I didn't like totally forget about it. But

(42:36):
I guess, you know, I don't know. It's just kind
of like I just kind of like blocked it out
and just went on with my everyday life, you know,
and and everyday occurrences or whatnot. And then I got
the job at the Mountain and was working up there
for a number of years, and then had that strange
encounter with my coworker who ended up quitting and I

(42:57):
never seen him since. And the screaming, you know, and
the thing chasing us down the mountain, and that was
that was just crazily bizarre. I've never heard anything like
that before, and except for on the YouTube and stuff,
were closest thing I've heard it because I looked it

(43:18):
up after that. Not after that, but I started getting
into big boot about ten years ago when I had
three other strange encounters not far from my hometown of Claremont.
I lived about seven miles away up in the woods,

(43:43):
real woodsy area called Unity, New Hampshire. Unity, New Hampshire
was a great place. Is probably a thousand residents, all country,
just nothing but country. There's no country store, there's no
there's just a you know, a post office in a school.

(44:03):
That's all there is there wonderful place. I lived there
for about four years, but I've also visited the whole area.
Like I said, I grew up in this area. So
I've been all around this area my whole life, hunting
and fishing, all these woods, all these connecting counties, in towns.

(44:26):
You know, I've been everywhere, as the song says, So
I'm living up there. We lived in a solid log
home built the farm. Me and my well she's my
ex wife now my wife at the time, and she
wanted a farm, a mini farm. I said, a mini farm.

(44:50):
That's awesome. Yeah, let's do it. So we had a
barn built and we had a garage built. There was
exist there was a cinder block, you know, half walls
and a pad. So we had to finish the garage.
When we moved into the property, we had to finish
the garage, and then we built a burn for our

(45:13):
upcoming animals. And it all went smooth. It was great.
And we had at one time we had two sets
of mini horses and one rider horse. We had some goats.
The mini goats were four I believe for the goats,

(45:34):
and numerous chickens, probably about fifty five fifty five chickens
of different varieties, so I had the best eggs going.
I mean I had the best eggs around because I
had all these variety of chickens. Man, you know, we
had you know, your Easter egg chickens and you know,

(45:54):
real all these good chickens that lead you know, good eggs,
hardy chickens. We had turkeys, I believe I had started
out with eight turkeys, I believe, and I lost a couple,
but chickens turkeys, We had a couple of pheasants. We

(46:16):
bought two peacock and then of course we had the goats,
the horses, and we had a little pig at one
time who was house trained. His name was Felix. Probably
one of the best pets I've ever had was that
pig named Felix. Super smart, house trained, I mean, just

(46:39):
a great pet. But I had a dog at the time,
my dog Blazer. He was a hundred and I think
he was one hundred and one hundred and twenty pounds.
I think when he passed away. He lived to be fourteen.
He was with me his whole life. Where I went,

(47:00):
that dog was with me. He was a tuxedo dog.
He was all black with a white chest. There was
a great great dog, black lab and blue nose, pitfull
one hundred and twenty pounds. Fearless. I mean that that
guy would tangle with anything. He wasn't aggressive, but you know,

(47:23):
if an animal come into the yard, he's protecting his
flock or is you know, he goes right into the mode.
So I mean he tangled with all sorts of stuff
out there in Unity, you know, porcupines, bobcats and you know,
you name it. I'm sure he was chasing it or
you know, either confronted something in the woods or whatever.

(47:49):
I mean, he was always always there on the farm,
great dog. Anyways, he was with me. So we had
all the animals, and then they started somebody. We lived
on a hill off of what would that be Unity

(48:11):
Springs Road. We lived on a hill called Glidden Hill,
and we were about six hundred feet off the road
up on this hill, and I had the barn was
off to the right of the house, the garage was
off to the left, and there was a little woodshed

(48:33):
right behind the house. And I built a nice little
fire pit out there out back, and nice little beautiful area, Oh,
just gorgeous, gorgeous piece properly sunsets every night. When we
first moved there, the deer were in the front yards.
In the fields, we had two pastures that there was
a driveway that went up and there was two little

(48:55):
pastures alongside of it. Going up the hill. It was cleared,
and then there was stone walls as a border on
each side. Stone walls that went up through the woods.
And then there was multiple stone walls up there that
were connecting, like the old livestock farm stone walls, the

(49:17):
tall ones. And there was a couple of wells up
there too that I had found, which was pretty cool,
livestock wells and stuff. There was a lot of history there,
a lot of history on that property. So we got
all these animals and we're living. We're loving the farm
life and the gabin life. You know. It was a solid,
beautiful log home, handmade. They did some logging up top

(49:42):
of the hill. Some company was doing some major clear
cutting operation going on, and that's when I started noticing
things happening. The first sign of something strange was all
the wildlife disappeared. Couldn't figure it out because when we
first moved there, there'd be deer in the yard. There's

(50:06):
deer down in the pastures having their babies. I mean
it was it was a place for them to come
and have their babies and then they you know and
do their thing and you know, partridge, turkey, black bear, bobcat, coyote, fox, owls, hawks, eagles,

(50:26):
fisher cats, uh, you know, possums, raccoons, skunks, you name it. It was,
it's all there. The neighbor across the street even claimed
that he saw a lynx one day. He took a
picture of it and I looked at the picture that
was a lynx, and some other people in the in
the community had seen it too, and so that was

(50:47):
verified that there was a lynx running around too, which
is not you know, not uncommon for New Hampshire once
in a while people see them. Well, we thought that
was an eat, that it was right there, right across
the road from us, you know. But anyway, so we
had the whole I mean, it was a beautiful play,
lots of wildlife everywhere, and they started logging up top

(51:10):
of the hill and we noticed right off the bat like,
where's the deer. I don't see no deer anywhere. And
then come to the point, come to you know, actually really
though I haven't seen any turkeys either, and I haven't
seen no partridge. Where's all the partridge? I mean, I
love rough grouse. I'll eat that till the cows come home.

(51:31):
I mean, God, that's you know, that's that's great stuff
to eat, you know, I mean. And I was excited
to move there and see all the partridge and turkey,
you know, walking around everywhere in the woods and deer.
This deer, I mean this, this is a hunter's for
paradise man totally. And then just all of a sudden, bam,

(51:53):
the woods are like dead man. There's like nothing nowhere, no, no,
not where is all the wildlife something No, it's weird.
I don't know. Something's got them spook, something's scaring them off.
I was thinking I wasn't taking big put or nothing.
I'm thinking coyotes must be chasing the deer around. It

(52:16):
must be a pack all clothes running around, running scaring
things off, because we do have a lot of coyote
up here and up in unity. These coyote are like
some of them can get sixty pounds. We're talking big coyotes,
well fed. So you know, that's all I thought, was

(52:38):
just that I must be coyotes or spooked all the game.
But no, it wasn't. I'm sitting out on the porch
as I did. It was a ritual to sit on
the porch with my dog, Blazer, and you know, hang

(52:59):
out look for deer. And he wouldn't go chasing him.
He might bark at him, but he was he was
trained well enough not to go chasing off after him.
But well, let me back up. Sorry. The first incident
was the rock throwing. I was cutting wood at my
wood shed, splitting wood and throwing it in the shed.

(53:23):
I'd split a bunch and i'd grab it and throw
a bunch of pieces up into the shed and then
I'd get up into the shed and then i'd stack
it all. And I was home alone at the time.
I was alone with the dog. The Blazer was right there.
The sound of the splitter didn't bother him. He's just
land right there, kind of like underneath the woodshed, kind

(53:44):
of because it was elevated off the ground. And he's like,
I'm just throwing wood into the shed and stacking it.
Get up there and stack it. And then I hear
something hit the metal roof, and I didn't saying nothing
about it. I thought it was just acorn or a
pine cone. And I just kept stacking wood and I

(54:06):
go outside and I fire up the splitter again and
I start splitting some more logs, but I needed just
to fill the stack, and I shut it off started
throwing the pieces up into the shed and then I
had to climb like these two or three steps to
get up into the platform. It was like it was

(54:28):
like a pole. It was like a pole shed like
poles and a roof, but no walls. And I had
just put some planks up along the you know, the side,
you know, and make like a not really a wall,
but you know, a snow shield for the snow. So
I just put some boards up all you know, all
the way around it kind of you know, boarded it

(54:49):
all all in and cut myself in doorway and well
actually a couple doors were on it, doorways, and you know,
so I'm in there stacked in the wood and I
hear that something hit the roof again, and just by curiosity,
I just went outside and looked around. I said, oh,

(55:11):
I wonder because the second rock that was what got
my attention. Really, it was like the bank bank and
I was like, whoa what the heck was that. So
I stepped outside and I'm looking around and I don't
see any tree branches above my woodshed. So I'm like, okay,
it's not pine CON's I do had. I had real,

(55:32):
real big pine trees on the property all around the
house and you know, around the you know, in the
wooded area. It was all these big trees, pine, ash, cherry, oaks.
I had a lot of oaks, you know, and maple,
and you know, a lot of nice big trees. And
there's nothing overhanging my wood shed. It was open. It

(55:54):
was out in the open on the lawn. So grab
the ladder that's right there, climbed it. Looked up on
the roof there's two rocks the size of a large
mark marble, like the large marbles. There's two rocks sitting
on my woodshed. I instantly spun right around and looked

(56:16):
right behind me, and I yelled, hell, who's up there?
You're on private property. I didn't hear a sound. I
looked down. I was on the ladder. I looked down
at my dog, Blazer, and when I said who's up there?
You know that now he came to attention. When I yelled,
he got right to attention, and he's looking right up

(56:39):
into the woods, and I'm like, Blazer, go get them,
got them. That dog would not go up there, for
you'd have to. There's no way you're getting that dog
up there. He was like he started whining a little bit,
but he wasn't like whining at the woods. He was
like looking at me, whineing. Then he kind of went
between my legs. And I've never seen my dog do this.

(57:01):
My dog's never done this, and he was like scared.
He's scared. I've never seen my dog afraid. So I
was like, go get him by go get him, you know.
And I used to say, you know, bad man or whatever,
get the bad man. You'll get the bad guy. So
I'm like, bad man, bad man. I'm pointing to the woods.

(57:23):
That dog would not move from my freaking feet. So
he just wanted to leave. He just wanted His tail
was between his legs and he was just like headed
for the house, which was only about, I don't know,
fifty feet away. So I get him to the house
and I'm like, I'm just puzzled. I'm just like, I

(57:44):
don't know what those rocks are about. And I'm just
thinking there's somebody in my woods. There's somebody messing with me,
throwing rocks at me. So I call out my neighbor.
His name's Rodney. I said, Rodney, you got your kids home?
Are they playing out in the woods or He's like, no,
they're not here. Why, Oh, I thought I just made

(58:06):
up some story. I said, Oh, I thought I saw
somebody walking through the woods. So I didn't know if
it was your boys or it was you know, a
hunter or somebody, you know, someone trespassing, because I had
signs up. So no, He's like, no, no, they're not here. Okay,
all right, thanks a lot. So I hung up with him,
and I'm just like, huh, the dogs in the house.

(58:29):
You don't want to come out. So I grabbed my shotgun.
Walk up, walk up behind the woodshed, up on my trail.
I had a little bath where I took my tractor
and i'd bring down logs and stuff, you know, a
little trail. Walk up the trail and I'm pointing that gun.
I'm literally pointing it in the end and where you know,
like the area behind my woodshed. As I'm walking up

(58:51):
the hill, I'm looking, I'm scanning that area with my
gun pointed, and I would never do that unless I
was hunting something. But I'm not hunting something. I'm just
looking around. But I was freaked out. Who's throwing rocks
at me? And I'm yelling, you know, you're on private property.
You got ten seconds to show yourself, you know. And

(59:11):
it's nobody there. There is nobody nowhere, nothing, there's nothing, nobody,
And I'm like, put them. I sat there for a bit,
just being real quiet and looking around and looking around,
looking around, and I don't see nothing. I don't smell nothing,
I don't hear nothing. So I'm like, all right, I'm

(59:37):
not I don't know. I just felt uneasy then, so
I backed out of there and I went back to that.
I went into the house and I'm like, looking at
my dog, I'm like, dude, there's something weird going on
around here. And I kept those rocks. I don't know
what I did with them. I had them for a while,

(59:57):
those two little rocks. But so nothing happened after that,
Like that night, nothing happened, or I didn't notice anything happened,
and I had my I kept my eye out the
window most of the night until I got tired and
went to bed, you know. The wife came home and
went to bed and I told her about it, and

(01:00:19):
I told her what happened, and she was like, probably
someone kids or something messing around. She didn't she didn't
think nothing of it whatever. So it was probably the night.
I don't know. I don't know exactly the dates or
the times, like three things happened, and I don't know
if it was in the same week or two weeks period,

(01:00:40):
or if it was like the same month. It's possible
it was the same month or within a two month span.
I'm not really I'm really not sure at all on
the dates. But but this all did happen, and there
was a so a few nights go by. I do
remember that when I'm out on the porch again with
Blazer having my nightly cigarette. The sun is just going down.

(01:01:07):
Now it's starting to get a little dark, you know,
And now it's pretty much to the point of dark,
and Blazer's sitting right beside me on the porch, and
I'm in my rocking chair, and I'm sitting there rocking
beautiful night, beautiful summer eat Summer's eve and crickets and stuff,

(01:01:30):
and you know, just beautiful night. The weather was warm.
It was kind of a muggy night, and I'm sitting there.
All of a sudden, Blazers stands right up and his
hair is sticking right up, and he's like staring right

(01:01:50):
off across the yard into the woods, and he's just
like his hair is up right where his is, where
his tail is. So that's why I know he he's
like alerted or he's like not scared. But he when
he gets you know, wound up, you know whatever, his
hair sticks up, you know, in that spot, and then

(01:02:11):
they would stick up on his on behind it, you know,
on his shoulders and stuff. It was his hackles would
stick up, that's what they call it. So he's all
hackled up like that, and you know he's tense, you know,
he's looking straight and I'm like, what is it? But
what is it? And I didn't see anything, you know,
I'm just I thought like he saw animals from so

(01:02:32):
I'm kind of like looking for something small, you know,
or running around or whatever. And when I looked up
at what he was looking at, I see from the
shoulders up what looked like a person, like from the
from the shoulders up, and it's we've been back and

(01:02:55):
forth real fast. We've been back and forth like deer
would do. But just ain't no deer. It doesn't have ears,
it doesn't have antlys, you know, it's not a deer.
And my backyard was was it had a light on
my wood furnace, my outside furnace had a little light
on the outside, and it was dim. It wasn't a

(01:03:18):
bright light, it was a dim light. So the whole
backyard was really dimly lit. It was spooky. I mean,
the wife wouldn't even go out there at night to
put wood in it because she said it was too
dark out there, you know, spooky. And me, I mean
I I just wasn't really afraid of the dark. I
mean it's you know, I'd go out with a flashlight

(01:03:39):
or whatever and you know, throw some wood in there,
and you know, get back to the house. It's wintertime
or whatever when burning wood fall fall in the winter.
So and this was this was in the summer when
this event happened. But I see this thing standing and
it was weaving back and forth real quick, left to

(01:04:02):
right and then left, and then it would stay there
for men and then it would go back to the
right and there, you know, like just like what a
deer would do. He's trying to see what you are,
you know. And the thing that caught me was that
blazer was pushing his face right through the screen door,

(01:04:22):
trying to get in the house. Whatever that thing was,
it scared him me. He just wanted to go in
the house. And I'm like, oh my god, not again,
what's going on. I couldn't figure it out, so I
grab When I open up the door to let my
dog in, my shotgun was right there, you know, by
the door. So I grabbed my shotgun and all I

(01:04:43):
had and it was bird shot, but I was like,
I didn't care. It was the only thing I had.
So I grabbed that and I engaged around and I
pointed right at that thing. And when I did that,
all in seconds. We're talking like it only take me
a second or a couple of seconds to do this
whole new boom boom, boom boom. And I'm looking and

(01:05:04):
there's nothing there. I didn't hear nothing run away. I
didn't I didn't see nothing like take off. I'm like,
just focused on that area with my gun and I'm
looking around and I'm looking the left and I'm looking
to the right and I'm looking all over the place,
and I was like, I think I might have said

(01:05:25):
something I don't know, like you know, hey, you know,
or you know or whatever, you know, like who's out there,
who's there you know or something you know, or I
might have said that. I'm not sure. But all I
know is my dog was, you know, peeled, peeled feet
back into the house. Bookie back in the house, and

(01:05:48):
that thing disappeared. It was standing there for a minute
and now it's gone. I don't know where it is.
And that kind of freaked me out because I'm like,
did it go behind my woodshed? Did it? Where is it?
Did it? Did it duck down? Is it just behind
the brush right there? Just something right there? There was
something right there. My dog would not be freaked out
like this it was an animal. He'd go, you know,

(01:06:11):
bull rushing, he'd go charge after it. So I'm like,
I know it ain't an animal. Uh. Where this thing
was standing? This is really bizarre because we had just
bought the property and I was working the property. I
was logging, I was clearing like a hillside. I cut

(01:06:32):
down this hillside, part of it behind my house so
I could see further up into the woods. I mean,
so there was an area that was really nasty. You
didn't want to walk through it at all. You couldn't
walk through it. It was it was hard to you.
I mean, you couldn't walk through it. It was dangerous.
You had all these cut saplings, You had trees that
were down in every direction. Because I was logging, I

(01:06:55):
was doing all sorts of stuff. I was clearing the
clearing the land. I wanted to clean it up, clear
it out. And where there was a little brook bed
that cut through right there, and it was dried up
at the time, and there was a couple of little
pools of water, but it was pretty much just like
a runoff brookbed and it was all dried up. But

(01:07:17):
the way it was, the way it was was like
these bushes that grew on the side of the brook bed,
and they were tall and they kind of encased it,
you know, and you could get in there and sit
down on a rock. I did. I found this big
round boulder in there, and I would sit down in
there on a hot summer day. I'd just sit in

(01:07:39):
there for a moment and cool off. And if there
was any pool of water or anything in there, you know,
I'd put some on my forehead or whatever, and cool
myself off, put them on my neck, you know, And
it was a spar or blazer. He'd just he because
he was always with me, so he, me and him
would sit in there, and of course he's getting a
drink and I'm sitting there just cooling off for a minute.

(01:08:02):
And I remember when I would sit on that rock,
I could look through the brush, like look through the leaves,
and I could see my porch, you know, clear as
day through the brush. I could see it. Now, if
I stood up, I couldn't see nothing. I couldn't see
no no porch, no house, no no. All I could
see was brush. It was because it was tall. It

(01:08:23):
was about I'm guessing like six feet or more. It
was tall six feet because I'm I'm five eleven, so
this brush was six feet tall. I couldn't see over it.
I'd have to stand up, you know, like all my
tiptoes or and try and see over the top of it.
But I really couldn't. And I was telling myself, you know,
someday I'm going to cut all this down, you know,

(01:08:45):
cut it, cut it all up, so you know, so
I can see the little brook bed you know and stuff.
One of these days, I'll get the cutting and all
this stuff. And so that was a little spot that I,
me and Blazer would hang out. No one even knew
about that spot, like the kids, they ain't we know
about it. And that thing that me and Blazer saw,

(01:09:05):
that black shadowy figure thing. I mean, I couldn't see
hair or nothing. It was just it was blacker than
the shadows and you know that are out in the woods,
you know, the shadows and stuff on the trees. It
was blacker than that I was calling it. It was
blacker than night. You know, it was blacker than the

(01:09:26):
blackest night. I mean, this thing was like jet black,
blacker than the black color you see at night. It
was crazy, like you could see it, especially because it
was moving. It was weaving back and forth. And that's
what caught my attention because everything is still and I'm
sitting there just kind of, you know, enjoying the night

(01:09:47):
and just daydreaming or whatever and thinking about things. And
then I see movement, you know, Blazer. So you know,
me and Blazer saw that movement. So where that thing
was standing, it was the shoulders and the head were
above the bushes. The bushes were six feet tall, so

(01:10:08):
that thing had to have been like seven feet to
seven and a half feet tall, maybe eight. It was tall.
It was taller than those bushes. And I know how
tall they were because I'd stand next to them and
I couldn't see over. So I'm like, dude, that thing's huge,
whatever that is. And like I said, it disappeared. I

(01:10:30):
had the gun aimed at it, and you know, like
when I turned around the movement of me grabbing my
gun and then pointing, turning around and pointing across the yard,
I didn't see it. It disappeared. I don't know if
it ducked down in the bushes or what. I didn't
hear nothing run away. So I just had that creepy
feeling that that thing's right there. It's right there. It

(01:10:54):
didn't go anywhere. When I got creeped right out, I
didn't dare go across my lawn with that shotgun because
all I had was bird shot. No, I ain't gonna
you know what, that's just the birds, you know. I'm like, God,
I need I need I need some firepower. I need
some firepower. I need some bigger bullets. I need some firepower.

(01:11:16):
So I went in the house, put the gun away,
I locked the door. I went downstairs. My dog was
down in the basement where he said that was his safe,
safe zone. He's down there in the basement, So I
went down. I was hanging out with the dog, looking
at him and talking like, dude, I don't know what
that was. I wonder if that's was through the rocks,

(01:11:39):
you know, That's all I was thinking, like, I don't know.
I was just thinking all sorts of weird things. I
had tools come up missing, I'd find them up in
the woods. I I you know, I'd lose animals periodically,
and I figured it was predators, but Blazer would chase
most of the predators away, So that kind of had

(01:12:00):
me kind of puzzled. And one night again, me and
Blazer are sitting out on the porch and I got
the gun right there. This time I got slugs, and
I hear the neighbors dogs up up the road, and

(01:12:21):
neighbor had some German shepherds. And this was about I'm
guessing like eight nine o'clock at night or maybe a
little lady now, it was probably about eight o'clock, seven
eight o'clock at night, and I hear the dogs going
right off the hook, these two German shepherds. They're barking

(01:12:42):
their heads off like like somebody's trying to break in
or I don't know. It sounded like a dogfight going
on right And I never really noticed. I never noticed
before that the guy had shepherds because they were always quiet.
So these dogs were going off up, you know, up
the road from me, and I could hear them the
way the land is. I was up on a hill

(01:13:03):
which is which was in a little valley, and there's
hills on the other side, and there's like a swampy
area that runs along the road. So it's like a
valley with a swamp in the in the center and
two hillsides or ridges you know, on either side. Sound
carried and echoed really really nicely out there, the acoustics,

(01:13:26):
you know, just the way the area was, you know,
the way it was. So he's uh, I'm sitting out
there and I hear those dogs, and then I hear
the guy come out and he's like quiet, get in
the house, come on, and I hear him. I hear

(01:13:47):
the dog. I don't hear the dogs walking, but I
hear the screen door close, which is it's that night,
and it's real quiet that night, in real quiet, so
you could hear every little sound. Know, I hear that
screen door close or you know, slammed and it echoed,
you know, you could hear it. So I was like, oh, wow,
he's got dogs. Okay, I wonder what those dogs are backing?

(01:14:09):
And that was that was crazy. A couple of minutes
after the dogs were now I even know if it
was a couple of minutes, could have been just a minute.
All of a sudden, I hear but it sounds like
a bulldozer coming through the woods, you know, with no engine,
just like you know, like a car crashing through the woods,

(01:14:30):
taking now every tree in its path, you know, or
like a giant like in your mind, like a giant
boulder that just come off the hill and it's just
mowing down every tree in its path. And it was
it was so loud. That was another night Blazer peeled
off in through the house. He was gone. He didn't
want nothing to deal with it. He didn't want and

(01:14:54):
I was like, not again. When I hear this thing,
I'm thinking to myself, what is going on? What is this?
I'm expecting like something to come busting through the trees
the tree line and smash right through my woodshed. Because
that's what it sounded like. And I'm hearing bipedal giant footsteps.

(01:15:19):
And when I heard that and all the trees smashing
and crashing and just complete destruction come in my way
at one hundred miles an hour, I was like bracing
for impact. I didn't know what it was. Moose don't

(01:15:39):
even make that kind of sound running through the woods
of bull Moose, black bear, don't. Nothing like that does
except a car or a boulder or something, you know,
something you know, like like something a truck, you know,
flying off a ledge and going through the woods. You know,
Like that's the kind of sound this thing was making.

(01:16:00):
And I could hear footsteps, giant bipedal footsteps, as all
these trees are coming down and branches are breaking, I'm
hearing crash, crash, crash, crash, crash crash. It's coming Closerer.
It's going right past the backside of my house, right
right through the woods. And it ran right through that

(01:16:22):
slope that I had clear cut with all those maple
saplins sticking out of the ground like like fouji sticks,
you know, or whatever. Wicked, dangerous area. I kept the
kids out of there. There's fallen trees that are crisscrossed.
There's sticks, you know, little tree saplings sticking up everywhere

(01:16:43):
that have been cut and they're only they're like, you know,
a foot high off the ground. Crazy. You couldn't walk
in it, you couldn't run in it, you couldn't do anything.
But you know, I was in the process of clearing
it all and it was a mess. And that thing
I did right through all that, ran right through it.

(01:17:03):
I don't even know how. And it got to the
other side and there was a stone wall, and then
there's grass on the other side of the stone wall.
There was a little area of grass that my neighbor
had along her property and whatever that was. When it
got to that side, when it got through that whole

(01:17:24):
slope and it got to that side, it was quiet.
It was dead quiet. You'd hear a periodic like some
stuff balling out of the trees, and you know, I
guess what do they call it? Rubble from him crashing
through the woods. Whatever it was. There was existing things,
you know, branches and whatever falling. It's like right over there,

(01:17:46):
it's somewhere, it's over there. It's looking at me. I
can feel it freaking looking at me, and I was like,
no freaking way, dude, no way. And I grabbed the
gun when that thing was When that thing stopped and
I was over there, when I didn't hear it walking
anymore and breaking all that stuff, I grabbed my gun

(01:18:07):
and I'm looking into it and I'm looking and I
don't see nothing. There's nothing there. I don't see no
eye shine, no nothing. I don't know if it once
I got to my neighbor's property. It's tall grass, you know,
and it's really quiet, so you can't really hear nothing
walking over there. So I don't know if it just
continued that way or if it was standing there looking

(01:18:28):
at me. But I had to feel in it. It
was sitting there, standing there looking at I felt like
I was being watched, But that might have been just
because I was upbraid and you know, just freaked out
by the whole event and all the other things prior
that were going on. So of course, blazers inside you
didn't want no part of that. And I was standing

(01:18:49):
there with my gun fully loaded, and I'm looking and
there's nothing there. And I was waiting for something to
come through that tree line onto my lawn. I was
going to blow holes right in it. I mean I
was primed and ready. I mean I had to beat.
I was ready. I was ready to shoot at anything
that was coming in the yard. I didn't even at
this point, I didn't even care. I was hoping it

(01:19:11):
was like a moose or something, you know, But it wasn't.
And I wouldn't have shot a moose. I wouldn't have
shot anything like animal wildlife. But that thing sounded like
a giant coming through the woods. That's that's literally what.
It sounded like, a giant running through the woods, taking
out every tree that's in his path. It's just blasting

(01:19:33):
things out of the way. So I went up there
in the morning. I didn't hear anything else. I went
inside the house, tried to sleep, you know, and I
slept lightly because every little sound I heard, I was,
I was awake of listening. It was. It was. It
was the weirdest time. It was the weirdest time for me.

(01:19:55):
And whenever something happened, this is another thing, whenever something happened,
I was always alone. The wife wasn't there, the kids
weren't there. It was always just when me and Blazer,
and Blazer was always with me anyways. But I mean
whenever I was home alone in the evening doing my

(01:20:17):
chores and taking care of the firemantals and whatnot, something
would happen. When people were there, the wife and the kids,
when they were at home, nothing would happen. I can't
explain it to this day. I can't explain that. And
I told them all about what was going on. The

(01:20:37):
kids thought I was crazy. The kids thought I was
going crazy or something, you know, I don't know. They
thought I was crazy. I'm sure of it. She my wife,
she believed me. She's not a believer of Bigfoot, but
I think she believed me when I was telling her
that there is a lot of strange things going on lately,

(01:21:00):
and I can't put my finger on it. I don't
know what it is. I don't know what's going on.
But we've got things missing, We've got strange sounds, strange
things going on. You know. It was really bizarre. Eventually
I had I left the property and I haven't really

(01:21:28):
had any I've been down in the woods quite a
few times, deer hunting and stuff. I wanted to say
that after my first tent that I call it the
tent encounter. When that happened in eighty nine, it kind

(01:21:50):
of freaked me out for a little while, and I
was a little afraid of going out in the woods
or whatnot by myself. But I got over that over time.
Like I said, I just kind of blocked that out
and got over it, you know. And then after the Scutney,
the Mount of Scutney encounter, I was downright terrified to

(01:22:12):
go out in the woods a night. You wouldn't catch
me out in the woods that night. And I hunted
deer for years, and I was always I was not
in the woods at Derek, you know, I was out
of the woods before dark. And you couldn't catch me

(01:22:33):
camping alone anymore. I wouldn't even go camping, even even
with some friends would asked me to go camping, and
I called it off. I was like, no, I made
up some stupid, stupid excuse because I was afraid. I
was literally afraid. And I'm not a shame to say that.
You know, these things affected my life in such a

(01:22:56):
negative way. I didn't hunt anymore. I stopped hunting. I
stopped going on my brook fishing adventures where I'd follow
a brook for miles catching trout. I wish. I'm passionate
about and I'm passionate about hunting and the outdoors, and
those two terrifying encounters early in life really had a

(01:23:20):
bad effect on my life. And as of recently, as
of I got a divorced and left unity, left the farm,
and you know, basically started a new life here in

(01:23:41):
town and started hunting again. But I go with my
cousins or friends, and I don't go alone. I still
won't go alone. And yeah, I guess it still affects
me to this day, talking like a thirty year span

(01:24:02):
of time, you know, and I'm still affected by it.
I mean, I won't go camping alone. I mean that
never used to bother me. As a kid. I go
set up at Kent and you know, camp, you know,
in the woods, and you know, when you're young, you're fearless,
you know, and you know you're immortal when you're young,

(01:24:24):
and that that stuff ain't nothing's going to happen to me.
And I know all the animals around you, nothing's going
to hurt me nothing, you know. And you go out
camping in the woods with just a little pocket knife.
I mean, you know, you ain't afraid of nothing, you know,
but you know, like I said that, that just put

(01:24:45):
a bad, bad negative, you know, vibe on a lot
of my outdoor life, my outdoor activities, my my you know,
I love being outside. I work outside. To this day,
I'm still outside. You know, I love to be outside working.
And but you won't catch me in the woods that

(01:25:05):
night alone or even if I was with a friend
walking down the trail that night. Man, I am freaked out.
I will get freaked right out. I have these you know,
these episodes of PTSD or whatever, and you know, I
deal with it in my own way and trying to

(01:25:25):
get over it. It's taken a while, but you know,
things are things are good. I mean, I haven't had
any encounters as of lately. I did see something a
couple of years ago. I think it was a I
believe it was a young one. It was about four
to five feet tall. I was deer hunting right behind

(01:25:47):
my place of employment. See, I wasn't really far in
the woods. I was just like right outside of the
parking lot where I'm where I parked my truck. I
walked in the woods about one hundred yards it's away
from the shop, and I was sitting there in a
little spot and everything was quiet. There was a deer

(01:26:08):
season in New Hampshire, beautiful fall day warm. We had
an unseasonably warm fall that year, so I didn't wasn't
all like bulked up with clothing. I had, you know,
a regular T shirt on and or you know, a
long sleeve shirt and uh in pants, and I wasn't all,

(01:26:29):
you know, bunked up with cold weather clothing. Normally up
here in deer season, it's cold during riful season. But
so I'm sitting there and I'm sitting on a rock
which was underneath some hemlock trees, and it was I
was really concealed, really well, and I wasn't moving. I
was in a perfect spot. I was sitting right alongside

(01:26:51):
this old old gravel road that went down behind the
Claremont Landfill. Back when I was a kid, they used
to have a landfill here in Claremont, and it was
it's up on a big hill and you'd have to
drive your car up to the up to the dump,

(01:27:11):
and then you get up there and get your ticket
or whatever, and then drive down this road all the
way down to the bottom by the Sugar River. That's
where the road came down next to and not close,
but you know it's the bottom of the hills, big
big hill, well that hill right now, it's a hill.
But back in the day it was just all you know, landfill,

(01:27:35):
and they're burying all that. You know, it's horrible what
they did. You know, they bury the trash and bury it,
you know, burn it, bury it whatever. So now it's
not a landfill anymore. You know, it's all covered up
and it's just all the green, big big green slope
and there's thick, nice hardwoods and stuff on either side.

(01:27:57):
And I'm sitting there and I know that there was
a lot of good deer signs. Who I'm sitting right
there waiting to see something go by. I'm hoping something
comes by. And I'm being real quiet, and I hear
a gunshot ooh, right down below me. And I knew
that there was a hunter down the road. I see

(01:28:19):
his truck every year, so I know that he hunts
down there. So I don't bother going that part of
the hill because I know that there's a guy hunting
down here. So you know, I don't want to molest
anybody's hunt or anything. So I stay up further up
towards the top of the hill, and I'm up there
and I'm hunting alongside this, like I said, this old

(01:28:41):
gravel road. And after I heard that gunshot, I was
looking down the road because I caught movement, and I
see what I thought. It was like a couple of turkey,
and we have a lot of turkey up here, so
it wasn't nothing to me. It was no big deal
all it. Gunshot must have spooked some turkey or whatever.

(01:29:02):
You know. I was like, cool, all right, well whatever,
maybe a deer will come by. I was waiting to
see a deer because I heard the gunshot, so I
was hoping something was going to come running by, come
my way. Anyways, I had a long view of this
road that's straight I was. I was sitting like right
on the ninety degree corner of this road, and I'm
right off of it about ten feet and I'm totally

(01:29:25):
concealed with camouflage, and I'm underneath trees and sitting on
a boulder, and I see these I'm looking to my side.
I'm looking both sides, you know, left and right, and
I'm looking all around trying to be real quiet, and
those things that I thought were turkey, we're now getting closer.
They're coming right up the road. I was like, Wow,

(01:29:45):
the thing's coming right up the road. Cool. Cool. So
I wish it was a deer though, you know whatever,
I see turkey all the time, you know, hundreds of turkeys,
So I didn't, you know, I was just sitting there
kind of hoping the deer would come by it. I'm
looking and as this thing gets closer, what I saw

(01:30:06):
was a turkey. Now I realize this is not a turkey.
What is this. It's walking on two legs. It's got
his arms freaking bent in a ninety degree position with
his with his wrists in a limp. His hands were
hanging down, and it had hair on it about i'm

(01:30:28):
going to guess, like two inches long, and its skin
I saw not like a frontal and not like I
didn't see him face to face like head on. I
saw more of a profile as he was walking up
the road. And I'm on the corner right and he's it.

(01:30:49):
I call it a heat. I don't know why, but
it was walking like walking up the road around that corner.
It's right in the middle of the road. Was right
in front of me. But of course now i'm looking,
I'm seeing it through the branches of trees. Okay, so
I'm just getting little little, you know, little clips of

(01:31:10):
it here and there. You know what I'm saying. I'm
getting little little bits and pieces of it. But then
there was an area where I could see pretty much
the whole thing. When it got pretty much right in
front of me, I could see the whole thing, and
it was, like I said, it was like a four
and a half to five foot person, all covered in

(01:31:34):
two inch shiny black hair, shiny like clean shiny or
oily shiny, you know, like clean, like almost like my
dog's hair blaze. There was jet black hair. It was
like that. It had what they call an almond shaped head.
I wouldn't call it a coconut shaped head. It was

(01:31:54):
more had more of a I don't know, it was
just a weird shaped head like that wasn't really elongated
or nothing. It was just kind of pointed round, but
kind of pointed. And I don't recall seeing ears. I
might have, but like I said, the hair on his

(01:32:15):
head was two to three inches longer than what was
on his his arms, and it almost looked like he
had bangs, you know that come over his eyebrows a
little bit, you know what I'm saying. And the skin
on him was jet black. The skin on him was
like black leather. I do remember that it was shiny too.

(01:32:38):
It had like like it was like in the sunlight.
It was shiny, kind of like leathery skin, but not
worn leather like you know, like polished leather. And it's
kind of had to shine to it, like greasy or something.
But anyways, it was black skin. In his hands. His

(01:33:00):
hands were black like the skin on his hand, you know,
his fingers and said they were black. And his face
was black. He had hair kind of like ones. It
was really quick. I got a quick vision of him,
quick look at it, but I could see how there
was no hair around the eyes of the nose. I

(01:33:25):
really couldn't see your mouth, and maybe just because of
the way he was moving he was going past me,
I just really didn't see your mouth. He just got
a glimpse of the side profile of you know, the
nose and the cheekbone and you know, part of his
you know, the side of his head. But what caught
me was what got me, what really freaked me out,

(01:33:47):
was the way this thing was walking when it was
coming around the corner and going right by me. It
was walking like it was in stealth mode. And this
was fall time, deer season. There's leaves all over the ground.
You couldn't hear this thing walking. I couldn't hear it
walking up the road. And that dawned on me later

(01:34:11):
after the encounter. I was like, man, that thing never
even made a sound, you know. And there's actually two
of them. There was like this four to five foot
being or whatever, but there was also something low to
the ground next to them, same color jet black. And

(01:34:34):
I don't know if that thing was on all fours
or if, you know, I really didn't get a good
look at that. I just saw a part of that thing.
What they did is they walked up the road and
they turned because they're following the road. They're right in
the middle of the road, and the road goes up
to the top of the hill and it goes to

(01:34:55):
where they dump all the trash and stuff and dumpsters.
And there's also two houses. Is there's a house right
next to the landfill area. Then there's they have a
neighbor next to them, and then my the place of
employment where I work is right next to, you know,
the second house there, So I'm thinking at first, I'm like,

(01:35:17):
was that is that a homeowner or something? Landowner? Who
is that? Is that a kid with a hoodie? Oh?
Was that? Because it was like you know kids size,
you know, Well, what they did is they walked right
in front of me. And I'm sitting there with a
loaded three oh eight on my lap. You know, I
could have blown hole right through it. But I was like,

(01:35:37):
I thought it was a person or something at first
when I saw it, I'm waiting a minute, you know,
what is this? Who is this? What is this? And
I just couldn't believe what I was looking at. For
about three seconds or whatever, I got a look at
this thing and what it did is I don't know,
I don't know why it did this, but it turned
to its left and went right into the woods across

(01:36:00):
the road from where I was, like, right where it
got to me. It just did a complete freaking ninety
degree and went right into the woods and was I
thought it was going like up hill. So I'm just
like kind of sitting here like freaked out, holding my rifle.
I'm like, what do I do? I do I bull

(01:36:21):
rush it. Do I go out and see what that is?
What if it's a person, What if it's someone that
owns this property or whatever? What if it's a kid?
You know, I don't know. What do I do? Screw it?
I'm going to run out. So I run out from
where I'm sitting. I run right out into the road
and I start yelling, hey, hey, Hey, who's there hello?

(01:36:43):
Because you know, basically, I didn't want to get in
trouble for being on property I'm not supposed to. So
I figured I'd make myself known and let somebody know
that I'm hunting over here, and you know it is
it okay? And you know, YadA, YadA, YadA, the whole
nine yards. So when I come out into the and
I'm like, oh, hey, I don't see nobody. So I

(01:37:04):
went directly. I followed that same path that that thing took,
right into the woods. I went right into where I
went into and I'm looking up into the woods and
there's absolutely nothing. I don't see nothing walking around nowhere.
I don't see two things I just saw. I don't
see them anywhere. And I instantly thought those things went
in the trees. I started looking up into the trees everywhere.

(01:37:29):
But like I said, this is in New Hampshire, in
this thick, thick country, thick woods. But I'm trying to
look into every tree I can see, you know, looking up,
I'm looking all around. Where did those things go? They
were like right here, They're literally like right here. I'm
like three seconds behind them. Where did they go? You
know what I mean? Like, I don't get it, Like

(01:37:50):
they just up and disappeared. I think they jumped up
into the trees or something, because I would have seen
them on the ground. I did a grid pattern search
all through this little scretch of woods, this little it's
like a little island of woods on the side of
a big grassy slope, and I did a grid pattern
in them woods. I'm looking and I'm looking, and I'm

(01:38:11):
looking and I'm looking, man, I'm searching hard. I'm looking
for tracks. And I saw where the leaves were scuffed
up and stuff, and you know, but Turkey, you're in
there and deer, so I couldn't tell what was what.
But I'm like, well, so you know, they they went
right through here, But where did they go? I'm looking
all around, man, and it was like they jumped into
trees or something. They were hiding. They were literally hiding

(01:38:32):
on me. But it had black hair, black skin, short
black hair like on its arms. You can see how
the hair came off the arm like two inches. The
whole body's covered in hair. Kind it kind of resembled
like a you know, like a you know, like a chimpanzee,

(01:38:53):
but with black skin, you know, but walks doesn't walk
like a chimpanzee. It walks like a person. Yet it
has a weird, weird it had a weird walk to it,
like it was trying to be sneaky, you know. But
but the way its arms were, the way it held
its arms when it was walking was it was typical

(01:39:15):
of the bigfoot things you see the pictures were their
hands like hanging down. It was just bizarre, That's all
I can say. And I don't know where they went.
I don't know what they are. What it was. I'm
guessing it was a young sasquatch, But that's just a guess,
you know. Did it looked like it looked like a

(01:39:37):
young Patty from the Patterson film looked like a young one,
you know, Patty had was a close description of it.
Of course, Patty's big Patty's like whatever, seven eight hundred
pounds whatever they were guessing whatever. But this thing is
on a small version. But it had hair like the

(01:39:58):
Patterson film. It had hair like Patis and the head
was kind of similar. The skin was black and the
eyes were black. I couldn't even see the eyes because
of either the brow ridge and the hair not really
you know, both of them combined. It was just all

(01:40:19):
shadowy right there, real shadowy, you know. I couldn't see
no eye shine or nothing like that in the light. Now,
this is a daylight sighting. This is like three three
in the afternoon, two thirty three in the afternoon. I
saw these two beatings and they disappeared like pretty much
right in front of me. And so, like I said,

(01:40:42):
I backed out of there instantly. I got all spooked out,
freaked out like that. I backed out and went right
to my truck, loaded all my gear in my truck.
And I even had a little ground blind on on
where I work and play some employment on the property.
I had a little brush blind there with a chair
in it and stuff. When I backed out of there,

(01:41:03):
I grabbed my chair, I grabbed all my stuff out
of my little hunt blind. That left and I haven't
been hunting back there since. And I haven't told anybody
at work about it because they probably they already know
about my big put encounters, so they probably think I
was crazy if I told them what I saw out
back there. But it's all woods out there. It's all woods,
and it follows the Sugar River Valley right out behind

(01:41:26):
my place of employment. There's a hiking trail out there,
and there's all sorts of ATV trails all over New Hampshire.
You can get anywhere from anywhere in the state of
New Hampshire. There's spider webbed trails throughout all in New England.
So I don't know where this thing went. It went
up into trees, I don't know where it came from.

(01:41:47):
I don't know where it went. Really a bizarre thing,
and of course it didn't you know, it wasn't spooky
or nothing. It wasn't scary and terrifying like the mother encounters.
This was just an amazing eyewitness. You know, I saw
something that I guess. You know that, you know, like

(01:42:08):
people think, you know, they're not supposed to exist, well
they do. You know, these things are real. I've had
these encounters. I've had these things happen to me. I've
had rocks thrown, I've been screamed at, chased down a mountain.
I saw these things deer hunting. You know, I could
have blown his sprigging head off with that three oh eight.
I could have put the dime right on it, you know,

(01:42:30):
lights out. But I'm like, what if that was a
person in a weird frigging square code or whatever. I
don't know, you know, Like, what what would happen if
I shot it and then the parents show up, you know,
and rip me apart or I become one of those
four one one, you know what I mean. Like, I
didn't dare shoot it. I was like just looking at it,
like I couldn't believe what I was looking at. I

(01:42:53):
didn't even think about shooting it. The thought crossed my mind.
I said, if that thing comes after me, I'm shooting it,
you know what I mean. But I just couldn't believe it.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing. And I haven't
been back there since it's been two years. I haven't
hunted that area yet since I don't want to see that.
I don't want to. I don't want to run into

(01:43:13):
their parents or whatever, or maybe they're guardian or whatever. No, no, nope,
I just want to leave those things alone and you know,
let them be, and hopefully they let me be. I
mean I haven't I haven't run into any any of
them ever, had any really scary experiences as of yet,

(01:43:35):
as of lately or anything. I've been deer hunting, you know,
every year now with my cousin, and I don't go
alone anymore, but I usually hunt with my cousin every year,
Like every day that I go hunting, I'm with him.
We got some good spots. We get deer every year.

(01:43:55):
But man, the only time I was like, you know what,
I'm going to just go sit behind the shop before
the sun goes down, and you know, maybe I'll get
a chance at something. There's a lot of deer around here,
so you know it's a good spot. I'll go check
it out and I low and behold. I mean, I
don't get it. But the day that I went and
did that and sat there by myself down there sitting

(01:44:19):
there for a couple hours, and I see that thing
and then the Darren, the Darren thing disappears in front
of like just goes up into the woods. Little ways
and disappears. I don't even know where it went, you know,
went behind some trees and I didn't see it no more.
I run up through there, did a grid pattern, didn't
see nothing. I was like, Okay, I'm out of here

(01:44:41):
because I don't know what. I don't know if they
ran away or if they're hiding. I don't know. I'm
getting out of here. I don't want no part of this.
It's not what I signed up for. I was like,
no one's gonna believe me. You know, I don't know.
I don't. I don't know what to tell you. That's
what I saw. So it is what it is. You know,

(01:45:01):
I don't. I don't. I wish those things never happened
to me, but they did, you know. And this year
coming up, it's September now, we got deer season coming up,
and I'm telling you I'm going to be with my
cousin and I'm not going out alone this year either.
I made my mind up. Not after what happened last year.

(01:45:25):
I know I'm done with that. I just, you know, no.
So that's pretty much just of it. As far as
my encounters and what I've seen up here in New Hampshire.
And I appreciate you. You let me share what I've seen
and what I've heard, and I guess that's that's pretty much,

(01:45:52):
you know the size of it, you know. I mean,
I'm glad nothing happened to me. I'm glad nothing happened
to my dog A man. Yeah, I think about it now,
it's like, well, it all comes back, you know. It's
like it's just like it was. You know, it's just
clear as like it happened yesterday. Whenever I do think

(01:46:18):
about it and discuss it, everything's as clear as like
it just happened yesterday. And I'm talking about even the
stuff that happened thirty years ago. It's burned into my mind.
It'll never it's never gone away. And that's what I've been.
You know, I've heard other people's encounters and like when
they see it, it's burned into their mind. They can't

(01:46:41):
erase it, you know, and I think that's true. You know,
when you have a paranormal experience like that or whatever
you want to call it, you want to call it
a strange encounter or a strange experience, or you know
whatnot whatever you want to call it. I mean, it's
real it is what it is. I mean, I saw

(01:47:05):
something that shouldn't be, you know, and I wasn't alone.
I had a co worker who was right there with me.
Bless his soul. I don't know where he is today,
but you know, God bless his soul for you know,
hanging in there and not falling down or being a
four one one or whatever, you know, Like, you know,

(01:47:26):
it's all I can say. You know, I'm glad that
there was a witness to the Mount of scut in
the event. I'd like to I'd like to see him
someday and talk to him about it, you know, you know,
just just just just you know, see if he's okay,
and knowing how you're doing and how you've been all

(01:47:48):
these years, and you know, how have you coped with it,
you know, and you know, and you go, you know,
and I want to see I want to know what
he saw, because he saw it, and I really want
to know what he saw. But I never want to
run into it ever again. I never want to hear
that for the rest of my life. I never want
to hear that sound ever again, not like that, not

(01:48:12):
at ten feet you know. Then, as far as these
big butts, go. I'd like to see one, but from
a distance, safely, from a distance, you know, even a
roadside cross and for me would be too close. I
don't want to be that close to them. I'd rather
see him from a distance and just watch them do
their thing and let them live their life and go

(01:48:33):
on their way. Well that's my story, Vick, and yeah,
I appreciate everything. Well that's it for tonight's show.

Speaker 5 (01:48:44):
If you've had a big Foot siding and would like
to be a guest, please go to my Bigfoot Siding
