I was just outside of Lexington, Kentucky in June 2021. I was traveling west on the bluegrass Parkway and as I approached mile marker 60, I saw something coming out of a tree just along the edge of the shoulder and the tree line. Whatever this was was definitely not a bear. I caught a somewhat good view of whatever it was. It’s arm was probably close to double the length of mine and I am 6‘4“ Tall. It slightly turned to its right, exposing its shoulder, top of its abdomen and part of the side of its head. This was not a bear and and there was nothing else It could be other than a Bigfoot. I made a report to the BFRO shortly after that and I have spoken to Matt Moneymaker. Unfortunately I was unable to meet with the research crew that he was trying to set up for me to speak with. I do not live in Kentucky, I live in Dallas Texas. I’m a truck driver who used to pass through that area on a weekly basis, until we lost our account with Kenworth. There’s some property not far from there that has a Sasquatch cut out on the top of the ridge line. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has seen something in that area. Watching this episode of small town monsters makes me think you were close to the area that I was in.
I have actually heard that barking noise before. We have a lot of dogs and coyotes where I am; however, one night I heard what sounded like a man barking at the dogs and it was close. My neighbor is an older man and would not do that. I have also heard the same voice mocking crows. It's really creepy, whether it's an actual person doing it or not.
Great video, Aleks, thanks! It does make sense to me to try an excursion like this alone, but it certainly does make things more difficult, especially when you're not familiar with the landscape. I've even tried going out alone near where I live (Vermont), at a remote location known for its sightings, but all it took was a few nearby wood knocks to totally freak me out. And I have plenty of solo wilderness camping experience. Cheers!
I like how you compared footage of a deer and did the distance estimates and everything. Refreshing to see someone not automatically call everything “evidence”

Dear, Aleksandar, I am once again very proud of you and grateful to your for your courage and fortitude as you venture, personally, into the most likely abodes of our giant, barefooted neighbors, the Sasquatch! I never forget, when viewing your videos, that you are taking very real risks with your life and health in order to bring back the information that the rest of us are so eager to learn. I haven't the freedom of time or resources to do what you do very often myself, but I know what it feels like to be alone in the deep forest at night, and I salute you for your bravery!
Your videos are breathtakingly beautiful, and the wealth of information you've collected and presented to the public, both on the flora, fauna, and native ecology of these precious remaining wilderness areas, and on the possible activities and populations of Sasquatch, is truly a glorious thing to behold.
I wish you nothing but the best as you forge ahead into new adventures. May you remain safe, and may you be blessed with a rewarding journey, every step of the way!
Sincerest thanks, --Naomi
Well said!!
Man I love to hear barred owls on a cold clear night! Awesome critters
Yeah, cus that's all there could be out there, there definitely aren't like 20+ known demonic entities or anything...but yeah...those silly owls you know...all there is to worry about...
@@SometimesTurtle Who said that's all there could be? I think it's past your bedtime !
My husband and I go hiking down there frequently. Back in October we heard a wood knock. We live less than 10 minutes from there.
Showing LOVE for the channel thank you for another great video once again, I'm a true believer in the Sasquatch species I personally love going to Gatlinburg Tennessee near the clingmans dome area and also since I live here in the beautiful mountains of East Tennessee. Thank You for your channel and have a blessed day everyone
Damn, when are you guys going to get a drone with thermal? That would have been ideal in this situation.
why don't you go try it drone with thermal?
@@wesleyscott2169 right?
Hey guys again I'm glued to my phone on this episode I can't thank you guys enough such a gd job keep it up oscar from fort myers florida
Exciting episode, i actually live in the beautiful bluegrass state of Kentucky. Can you please tell me which county you were filming in. Thank you.
YES!! Can't wait! There are very few really good Bigfoot channels, this is in the top 3! Thanks for all the hard work!
Bigfoot Beyond the Trail is the best!
@@selendioxid4784 Right?! I always look forward to the next video. I'm wondering why there's only 1 comment here, mine. LOL Did everyone else dissappear?!
@@just-a-cupcake Yes, for me, it is one of the few ways to dive into the topic, because I am from central Europe. And there are very few channels on RUclips about the topic. I also really like just the views of the forests and countrysides in the videos of Bigfoot Beyond the Trail. Don't worry - tomorrow the comment section will be flooded.
@@selendioxid4784 I love the personal stories. Did you watch "American Werewolves "? I was on the fence till I watched that & you can't help but be drawn I to the descriptions & feelings. You just know it's all true!
@@just-a-cupcake I am more the guy who likes scientific approaches. Stories are a great way to get a starting point,though.
Hi…. A 5 year resident of Kentucky. I have not lived there for the last year but there ARE large cats. I heard something outside my cabin once and it was horrifying…ok so more than once what I heard after that I’m sure was a panther … but the time something stood outside my cabin and screamed … I’ll never know what that was but it wasn’t human and it sent chills down my spine… my dogs didn’t even bark. Horrifying
That knock out of nowhere tells us that there is something out there. It’s like they know in advance and send the signal out. Something made the knock. Great Vlog. Thanks.
Enjoyed this video. That barking noise was creepy. We have 80 acres of wooded property that we use for hunting and recreation. We have heard coyotes and wolves extremely close but they don’t bark like that. Had to be a person, a dog or something else.
I go out in the middle of the woods solo each and every day. I sleep out there too. I often sit & listen at night from the porch, at my house.
I really enjoyed the comparisons to the cruise ship and football fields… SUPER helpful!!!
Smokey Mountain & Eastern Kentucky is your best spot for finding these creatures. Great Video 👍
I like this series cause nothing happens on their search. If it were on the history channel there would be a lot of staging involved.
Oh I like the Monster Bait TV guy, I'm subbed to his channel but haven't seen anything new for a while.
Surely we are the audience and not the actors of these displays. No whoops or knocks and just being genuine. 💯
Hells yeah!! Been going crazy waiting on this one!!! Thanks guys!!
Jeff Waldridge is actually a really credible guy. He's not exaggerating, and he's making a HUGE effort not to jump to conclusions about what he's encountered.
Hi Aleks & The Gang, Marie from South Wales UK 🇬🇧
Great Episode I just Love the Night Adventures , looking for Eye Shine and the Big Fellow . The heat Shine to me looks like a Deer feeding . The Knocks were Creepy. Stay Safe Out There 🦌🦌👀👀👣👣👣👣👣👣💖
👍 Watching your channel 👍
Back in the 70s I was brought a present 🎁 of rabbit bones back to my house. After finding a bigfoot nest and seeing bigfoot on his way out.
Your voice says it all no need for proof your voice says it all.
it's hard to comprehend for most people
Great job and good little investigation 👍 thankq for taking us along with you 👍 😀 👏 🙌 👌 😄 👍
He’s crazy. In the woods by himself? No way! 🌲🦧🌳🏕️
Aleks, next time you head to KY, maybe you can come to Southeastern IL. We hear them similar to this, and hear them talk, howl, and yell. I've seen them twice. There's a Bigfoot Festival in Harrisburg IL, but they seem more active, that I heard, in Johnson County, Pope County, and Hardin County.
Hi Alex . I watched the newest video on Sasquatch in Kentucky. Great research as usual . The thermal in question on the hill. Maybe a rock or boulder heated from the sun ? Like you very interesting . I look forward to the follow up when you get back there. PS if you ever need anyone to go out researching with . Please let me know . Take care keep up the great work !
Aleks, I was in that area in 2008 with my family. We were visiting a friend who owns Green Turtle Bay and Resort just north of the LBL, small town called Grand Rivers. He suggested that my wife and I take our kids to the nature center in the LBL and we did so, Had a nice time seeing eagles and wolves (in captivity at the center.) My wife and I were walking with our kids on the perimeter of the wildlife center near a patch of thick woods. This was a about 10 yards from the wolf enclosure. All at once, the wolves (about 6 of them) started going totally ballistic, howling and growling while facing the woods. My kids noticed and got spooked so we migrated back to the nature center. While there, I mentioned the creepy incident. The woman said; "They do that from time to time. There is something in those woods that they do not like." She told me that they have had problems with vandalism (things torn up and debris strewn everywhere). They had set up game cameras and captured nothing. She told my kids the story of the "Beast of the LBL" but I think it was more to spook my kids than anything else...I got kinda spooked however. As it was getting late we asked for a recommendation for a place to eat and he young lady recommended a good place in town. She said she was closing up, politely suggesting that we move on while it was still light outside. I looked at curiously and she said: "Its not good to be out here after dark."
Is this near Lake Cumberland or Green River Lake? My hometown is close to LC and this has me wanting to go searching!
Taylorsville Lake area. Salt River runs into it. Theres a wildlife managements area that he was on.
Been following for some time now watching from the uk 🇬🇧 I must say your alot braver than I am there's no way I'd go where you go especially on ya own. With all these unknown creatures out there
The eyes at 10:05
As I understand it they are talking about the tree in the foreground?
Wouldn't we be able to see a body? Surely something as big as our friend squatchy couldn't hide his bulk behind a narrow tree trunk?
It's very intruiging however. Could be a small animal and somehow it appears as if to be a curious/almost sentient being.
Remain sceptical but always open minded!
I love this channel, thank you so much for the amazing work.
Nice looking area my friend. I am digging the different approach 👌
I live right beside a powerline cut. Everything travels them and I’ve had some creepy sights and sounds also…we have a huge coyote population as well, but there’s something that can make every dog, coyote, fox, hog, bobcat shut up and move out of the area for days to weeks at a time…and it’s times like this when I get raps on the log siding of my house or my barn cats will disappear…never to be seen again, im raised in the woods and you can feel an energy shift when whatever this is moves through. Edited to add that I’m on the very rural Cumberland Plateau in TN.
100 percent believe you!
Another great video. Nice to see Jeff from Monster Bait
That's Taylorsville lake WMA. Above the lake on salt river. I don't know about bigfoot but it's a great place to catch stripe bass in the spring.
Great documentary. Enjoy everything you do.
We we're heading through Kentucky going to a Bmx National so I could race. I seen a Huge black mass in a field area at the treeline! It was standing but we were on the highway and unable to stop!! We travel all over America racing. I always watch the woods when we travel..I also collect Bigfoot memorabilia..So excited that I seen one from a distance!!!There's a bunch of Sightings in Southern Ohio at Salt fork State Park!! We're going there for a Bigfoot Convention this year 2023..I also grew up in Michigan and we go to Mackinac for Vacation! Another Hotspot for Bigfoot activity is Upper Michigan!! God bless and Stay Safe!
Love these shows, very good stuff ! The background music is loud & distracting though.
I give you so much respect for being out there alone. Lol. If a BF wanted to hurt you, it certainly could. 😱
Kentucky in the late autumn looks a whole lot like southern New England at the same time doesn't it? Last time I was down there I was struck by how similar the two regions actually are. No longer even fair to say KY is hotter in the summer. It's interesting that there aren't many black bears there though; I expect the population will grow in the coming years
I live in S. Central Ky.....and yes, the bear population is starting to grow in recent years. Its common to see a bear from time to time here now. As a child growing up here, we never seen a bear.....never seen turkey or coyotes either but we have an abundance of both now.
Yes, & alot cheaper those folks in N.E. are ridiculous prices! I don't know how they can afford that part of the N.E. I'd take Kentucky every day of the week!
Jeff is the owner of MonsterBaitTv here on youtube, he does Crypid and Paranormal investigations.
Hi guys, I was just going to say that I can understand people not being able to get a picture because they were startled. We went to Kodiak Alaska to visit our son and we were coming out of the woods on a dirt road and a Kodiak bear came out of the woods right in front of us and he was gone in a few seconds. I was just sitting there watching with my mouth open. It was taller on all fours than the front of the the car. It would have been 9feet tall if it stood up. I almost inked myself man that thing was scary huge. I would guess about a thousand pounds. They are the biggest bears pretty much tied with polar bears. Love the channel!! I believe that there might be some out there! Keep up the great job!!
I really enjoy and appreciate your vidios, you go to some amazing places on your journey !!
I'm one of those people who have had a blessed, cursed, extraordinary, magical yet freakish luck all through life so it just makes me sad that of all things I've yet to have the awe of a Squatch encounter lol
I think the red eyes reported about Sasquatches speaks of something possibly supernatural.
If a tree falls in the woods and no one is there too hear it,did Bigfoot push it over.
Absolutely and without question!! 😂
Quite an interesting area. One thing that is frustrating for me that information will suggest that a location has possible evidence and then a researcher will go there to look for evidence and then barely research that area. I know that it's easy for me to sit back and be an armchair quarterback but i think that more results would be possible if more time was spent in the target area. Personally i would research top places where activity is reported then narrow it down to 3 places and try to choose which seems to have the highest probably of activity. Once a target area is chosen then i would plan to focus on that location and spend a good amount of time there. It could be like staying a week or 2 or even spending multiple weekends in that place. I know this is much easier said than done but i think you would have to be incredibly lucky to spend a few hours or a day and find concrete evidence. I also think that if the sasquatch keep seeing someone over time they may let their guard down and slip up or, on the other hand, get fed up with someone intruding and make their presence known by trying to push them out of that area. You are very good at what you do and your dedication to this subject is obvious and i wish you much luck in your searching
U still make a very good point though..hell I like the idea lol!!that's cause as u state,narrow down some target areas,make YOUR presence known over a few weeks or more as just you and u alone! And the Sabe will get used to ur presence..or..get pissed and try to get u to leave haha!!only 2 outcomes I'd say...and also, I won't consider this as armchair qtr-backing lol!,just some good thinking outside tha box!! I been wanting to hit Hotspots in Ohio(where I live),so that would be some good insight actually!!✌🍻😏✌🍻😏
Agreed, going someplace for a day or a weekend here and there is almost a waste of time. I guess it works though when your primary focus is making videos though.
@@Boogeyman1976 yup yup..not out to make videes and such, however,I also would not wanna have some outcome like a horror movie haha!! I would have some light equipment,..'in case' I wanna document something!then again,these Forest folks have the sensory and detection of electrical/recorded equipment...tbh,I'm not calling out and thinking some ppl are just liars etc,I think they had something happen, and couldn't document it,so to the rest of the world,they come empty handed and then ridiculed!!✌🍻✌🍻
@@steve-0493 by coincidence i also live in Ohio lol
@@monastallard2878 🤣😂😆,only in Ohio right??.that's awesome..im outside of Columbus, in the Reynoldsburg/Pickerington area..and what u suggested is really reasonable, I would love to test it cause yeah they would get used to that presence u bring etc..I was wouldn't want them to slip up per say, rather,I would just wanna learn and communicate..
Good Job! Always like your channels content.
Can I ask you a serious question? When people tell you I heard whatever at location X/Y and you go to X/Y to do a video, do they know you are out there? Do you tell them when you are going? Have you ever decided to change where you go, to a slightly different location at a slightly different time so they can't set you up? Otherwise it seems like a perfect situation for someone to mess with you.
Could the subject matter have been up a tree? That would then rule out quite a few animals other than a bear. Would Stags make a similar knock when they hit their antlers on a tree? I have never heard the deer where I live do that but I have seen TV footage of Stags hitting and rubbing a tree with their antlers.
I really enjoyed this video and thank you. I did want to point out something where you commented that your batteries drained from the cold, but I'm not sure if they do that. I have a small clock with a AA battery where it's been getting down in the teen's night after, but my clock is still ticking just fine, so I don't know. Thanks.
Ahhh Sunday...coffee and Bigfoot.
Knocks from behind a barrier in elevation is intriguingly common. The target species would have no problem seeing your hands and where you are looking in great detail.
Those who know.... Can never not unknow!
Bigfoot creatures are multiplying and more are being seen and heard. It's going to be real interesting to see what's going to happen and become of them in the near future.
Love this channel!!!!!in my opinion its the best!
Good stuff guys!
They know exactly where you’re at at all times. They more then likely communicating with each other.
The youtubers that Jeff brought up with him to go look for bigfoot were so annoying. They would repeat everything he just said back to the camera. They probably think their audience have short term memory.
Nah just means they don't know enough info to say there own shit Wich is just as bad tbh
Go start your own channel then and say fuckall lol
what is this youtube video called
@@reactwithjacks1273 I was trying to find it again. If I find it again I will tag you.

Who's the artist that made the sasquatch for the thumbnail??
I have asked that same question before myself....whom ever it is... they do a great job👣
Another Great Video you'll get him you will keep up the great work.👣👣🦶🦶
Glad to see that you went out by yourself. 👣
I feel like I speak for many...PLEASE keep doin these REAL investigations. Do NOT give up
Of course! We are going to keep at it and tell the truth of what we experience. No fakery needed!
Well..... The Sasquatch peeking around the tree must have been about the size of Popeye's girlfriend olive oyl.... Skinny 😁
I thought that too 😂
You have the link for that thermal that thing is pretty nice 🤘🏼
Suggestion, use rubber bands to hold hand warmer packet to your camera to keep battery warm in the future.
Why do some of the trees have the orange glow on them?
Might be the heat coming off of them if you mean when he uses the thermal vision?
Accumulated heat signature, they warm up during the day and are slower to cool than say, the air. Rocks hold heat even better
I know where you are at we use to lease a farm next too Taylorville lake we had too
encounters with something would like to get in contact with you and tell you about it
Just seeing this comment now! Would love to hear more about what you've encountered in this area. If you see this comment please feel free to email me here: aleks@smalltownmonsters.com
It's 2023. Time to find 1 and go up to it. And see what it really is.
Thank you Alexander hope I've got uou name write I enjoyed this episode . Yes I heard the dog ?and Hooe you can work out what the heat sensor was .👍❤️x from the 🇬🇧
What do use for thermal imaging? Camera or monocular? I don't know much about thermal that's why I ask? Also what's better night vision or thermal for night time?
Forward looking infra-red is the go but those units are not cheap.
@@Healthliving1967 How much and where to buy? Forward-looking thermal? Something like a Flir type thing?
Nice show Guys and Gals!
There's alot going on in Kentucky. Sasquatch, Dogmen, Kentucky Goblins. Needs more research! And when he said he sat in the car with the windows down & scanning with night vision, yep, that's exactly how I would don't! LOL Not getting out of the car! I'd be a terrible Sasquatch hunter!
Some friends & 2 packs of Hounds! Plenty of backup & have DNR on speed dial! All of my Grandparents animal's went missing! Chicken's, hog horse 🐴 & mule they used to plow the field. As a small town boy from Ohio my mom was from Kentucky, but as the farm animals & pets began disappearing, it even makes a teen kid realize something is back there. It's about a 1/4 mile sandy road back in there to the farm which is now leveled by some Squatters my Uncle let stay there & collapsible the building. If something did happen NOBODY would hear a Peep back in those Hollers! Grandma's canning in late summer , early fall went into her side of the mountain cellar for the winter.
Maybe not . There has been to many people reporting that they have had hand prints on vehicles and campers being rocking . It is going to take a very good amount of skill to be able to get one on camera and caught.
@@robertrutherford3618 I don't think anyone will get one on camera. I used to think so, but now I'm almost convinced it'll never happen. They are a very mysterious & peculiar being. Definitive proof of their existence won't happen unless they allow it.
@@just-a-cupcake I am part native American . The tales say that they are gate keepers to other dimensions. There is some truth in tales as we all know. You may be right as never getting one on camera . But the sightings has to account for something . Thanks for your response.
@@robertrutherford3618 I believe that if we listened more to the Native American tales & legends, that we would learn alot more about Sasquatch.
There's alot of strangeness that goes on here in KY,it would not surprise me at all if the discovery that proves their existence is found here in our state
Unfortunately, scientists would then probably want to create yet another box that says they can ONLY be found in Kentucky, which is not at all the actual case. They're all over the place, even out in the desert surprisingly enough. Plenty of places to hide if you're a bipedal hominid operating off of pure instinct, I guess.
Did the woods seen unusually quiet on your second night there?
More quiet than the first night for sure.
now this is some good stuff right here.
It's rare Bigfoot get caught on trail cameras as they can detect the electronic frequency from them even if they don't have an i.r. light. . The peeker in the video somehow goofed up. Maybe he wasn't from around these parts! 🤔
I didn't think big foots in Kentucky, aay...till I heard stories of encounters fr that state, on " Buck Eye Bigfoot ". Native Americans live in that state, well a few, aay. D'uh America was and still Native Land, actually Turtle island( North America) is Native Land, our people used barter n trade before borders...This episode seems interesting, will check it our...
I love up by ft.Knox ,ky and I saw those red eyes in my back yard.
Omg, I was in my headphones in bed and got turned on the moment he started whispering right in my ears.. awkward 😁🙈
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Loved the video
Yo!! check out 19:54 (Slow playback to -0.5) look at the upper left side of the screen (left side of the magnification box) looks like something moving. its not showing heat but who knows maybe they can change their body temp.
You guys should check out the New York southern tier! Esp in Allegheny county. All I'm gonna say is you'll thank me later!
I've lived over in Western Kentucky all of my life and nobody I know has ever seen anything close to a bigfoot.
Millions of people in and around woods, right? Not 1 conclusive piece of evidence! People, back in history, lied to us? People now days ,lie to us? No. Ok, so they existed, and might still do…
Paranormal capabilities? Nephilim hybrids? How can they elude all of us?
best channel today on the subject
@text1-379 thank you
Here close to Mount Rainier Washington there's some Mountain they called the mountain of the ape you guys should come the Washington explore the place
Hello from Kentucky
My Wife and I saw something we can only describe as a dogman type of creature running accross the road in front of us.I wasn't going to say anything but she asked me if i saw it.Pretty creepy whatever it was.
i have a idea on the sony cam battery .. what if you stuck a hand warmer pack on it .. ps i live in lincoln NH white mnts you ever want company when your up this way hit me up
Good content guys that boy.
crowdfund 30 grand FLIR for aleks!
Interesting video
I live in Lewis co now ky but on my mom and dad old 80 acres in greenup co ky next to Lewis co ky I had an experience that me my friend and mom all had at the same time. We called our neighbors and cousins who lived close up the same hollar to tell them it was heading their way they all heard it breaking huge tree or limbs down along the way. Way to big of limbs or trees for humans or bear. We didn't even have bears then there in the early 90s.
I think Jeff is the real deal you being a bit spooked is very understanding I myself felt something scream at my buddy and i up in Harrison hot springs lake B.C. and the screams froze me in my foot steps.the scream in the mountains sounded like a women being murdered it was horrifyingly I wanted to go but we were camping at 20 mile Bay it was a hot spot for squatch incidents and it was 11pm in November it was to late to leave very unsettling night.
The tree fall in windless situations has happened to my group twice. I assume it is a territorial display. That has not deterred us from advancing either time. 2023 is the year the Florida Skunk Ape Researchers (FSAR) will intercept a regional Bigfoot, and..........
Interesting area wish you had of stayed for longer and taken more footage.
Love the Owl
