Maybe the predator in question is the human.

Mate I seen 2 of them in your video, 1 walking huge with a pointy head, and another standing in front of a tree, then when you turn back he was gone. Need an email of some sort to be able to show you. Being indigenous and spent time in the bush, I have a keen eye, it wasn't that hard to see. Well done you caught them on camera, once you see it you should upload a new vid 👍

"When the forest goes silent, there's a predator nearby"

Not sure about this one. The Aussie bush can be deathly silent at times.

Most the time its cause if the fear pheromones we let off. Imagine a big hairless stinky ape walked past you

When you hear sudden silence in a forest, you need to run for your life. That means there is a vicious predator around such as a bear, mountain lion, or perhaps a bigfoot or were wolf/dogman.

Is there any kind of sign saying why the bells are there?

Run

My Grandfather used to say in the 1960s that evil spirits live in the jungle.. Back in the 1930s and 40s he used to be a chiclero,,,cutting mahogany trees for the British in the forest...i don't know what experience he had in the jungle at that time....but his conclusion was that evil spirits live in the jungle.(forest)..

Hey, at least if it is a predator, you were making it easier to track you by talking at your phone to an audience that didn’t exist at the time! Would have make a decent horror film-esque final video if something had happened to you 😉

I think they were silent because you approached. And you kept them silent by speaking while filming the video. I'm well aware that frogs stop singing if you disturb their croaking. The birds aren't as easily silenced, but maybe they were curious as to why the frogs stopped. Animals are attentive to the behaviors of others and don't need to see the threat to be nervous. A bit similar to how you got nervous, even though you didn't see or hear anything creepy.

Just some info for those who say in comments that they can hear cars and other sounds in this. I can assure you all that the nearest sealed road from this spot is about 30 Kms away and that this place is only accessible by a small single lane dirt rd that very few people know of and which ends in a dead end about 1km from where i filmed this. No Traffic in other words. The sounds you might be hearing are coming up from the river which runs hrough a deep gorge and echoes around wooded slopes .

Probably you that made the forest go quiet.

I’ve had this happen a few times while in the woods. Definitely makes me feel uncomfortable every time. No idea why it happens. I assume whatever wild life was in that area just left. The usual noises come back within 5-10 minutes it seems like. Never seen anything weird or some big predator whenever it happens. I am always armed though.

You had a big visitor close by

Yes they are out... 2 weeks back high up along a sandstone ridge westerly facing, walked up on a good size one sunning, noticeably this NW sunny position radiated some dec warmer than the SE side walked 30 minutes earlier.... Thank you capturing sharing her graciousness lady diamond 🐍

It's important to remember, humans are predators. A human is perfectly capable of spooking patch of wilderness. If nothing else, we are still large ill-tempered apes. However, that was a clear path. The birds should be used to humans, and the crows probably enjoy squawking at passersby. They're very nearly as ill-tempered as us. I'd probably leave to. Especially if I was alone and unarmed.

Macaques arent quite apes. The tail is just very small in some subspecies but they do have them.

Is this US/Canada or British Isles?

You can clearly hear cicadas and insects. Man I know you want to believe “ the Yowie chose you and is watching you” but mate insects can be heard in the video.

Even dialing up the res to 720 it was still too blurred to see anything among the grasses.

Yowie time 🥳

I can tell you this as someone who has been in numerous forests and done a lot of hunting. When everything goes silent like that, it typically means there's a large and very dangerous predator in the area. Sometimes that's us humans but sometimes it is other things. And I have seen things I can't explain away easily before. If your hairs stood up, you were probably being stalked by some sort of predator. Dunno whats in that area but I'd have my head and ears on a swivel and on high alert and practice walking silently.

Stunning snake. Getting those rays!

I used to horseback ride and hike in some fairly remote forests. A ranger told me to yell really loud when I was starting my ride or hike, and to do it again when I was a good distance into the forest. It lets the animals know that I'm visiting, not hunting. When it goes silent, it's time to turn around and leave. My cousin and I were escorted by a mountain lion that had a den in one of our family's mines, and we crossed paths with a wolverine that was trekking up over a mountain. It was silent both times.

Still waiting for it to go silent…

I doubt all the “fuss” is about your presence so you must be onto something out there.. stay frosty and your head on a swivel,brother..

They went silent because they saw the most dangerous animal on the planet. The camera man.

This is recommendet to me while im trying to sleep in a forest right know, thanks youtube

Lots of noise, what you talking about?

“Not a freaking sound!”AMBIENT AUDIO ENTERS THE CHAT! Seriously, wish he had been recording before everything went quiet. All I hear is ambient noise, foot falls, and narration.

That was definitely something strange that happened there. I don’t believe in Sasquatch or big foot, but I do believe in demons. It could’ve been a predator, but I’m not sure what animal big or threatening enough it could’ve been. Dingoes perhaps? Either way, pretty eerie.

I hear the Aussie ones like to dunk on people by suddenly using them as springboards. Even your squatches have Aussie attitude!

The comments on this video have made up my mind that i will never enter the woods anywhere without a battlerifle and a sidearm from now on

*If nature is silent it means paranormal entity/entities spread, so start remembering Allah!*

Birds of different kinds often travel together in small flocks, foraging, etc. and it could be they just flew off and there was some quiet moments. Living in the country, I've found the natural world is often remarkably still and quiet when I stop to tune in. It is we humans who are usually so busy, even in our minds, we rarely hear and see the quiet rhythms.

Honestly, I wouldn't hang around to find out why.

Been living in Appalachia for over 15 years. While out in the woods, I’ve learned: “If nature goes quiet.. turn around, listen, look, and move towards where you came from.

This is so creepy. I thought it wouldn't be so obvious and I would just be wasting my time but I've never heard the forest so quiet that all you hear is trees rustling.

They’ve gone silent because a human turned up 😂 Biggest threat on this planet

Wait. I hear it way off in the distance...yes ! They are yelling Fu ck jo-bye-done !

All the animals in the forest trying not to laugh behind the trees 😂

Lol u hung around way to long, get the FK out of there already

Yowie.

Yeah. That's so many levels of wrong. I'd be running long before now.

Animals go silent as a survival mechanism when they detect a significant predator. Think bear or mountain lion here. I’ve also seen them react this way just before a storm. Wild things are extremely sensitive to their environment and can perceive things we can’t.

My tinnitus doesn't allow me these moments

People that don’t go into the woods usually think hearing/seeing strange things is what'll be scary, but not hearing or seeing anything and not knowing why is so much worse.
