i am now convinced.thank you les for all your hard work.but i can do you one better...come to kentucky at my behest il show you a breeding area they protect
I've been watching Survivorman since I was a kid. My brothers and I always loved sitting down with our dad to catch an episode. We almost never get time to camp together anymore, but these videos bring me back to a more wholesome time. Really cool to see Les explore these other topics too.
I was stationed at Ft Bragg 1983-1985. I was on the Robin Sage training with the Green Berets in the Black Forest of North Carolina. I was not a Green Beret I was from another unit that was playing the role of a Nicaraguan clan leader. During the training my clan and I were camped on a ridge overlooking a small ravene. I thought I spotted a scout sneeking up on us in a Ghillie suit. When I looked closer it was what appeared to be a tall hairy man. I stayed on my position and kept my eyes on the figure. I sent my team down in two groups down to surround the target from both flanks. As the soldiers began to circle the position, the figure slowly moved into a small stand of scrub oaks about 7 feet tall. From my position I could see 360 degrees around those scrub oaks because the ravene was surrounded by a clear ridge. My team fully circled the scrub oaks and closed in on the person and scrub oaks. They found nothing. I yelled to them to stand pat I was coming down. I never lost eye contact with the small group of scrub oaks where the person stepped into nor did I break eye contact with the encompasing ridge around the ravene. I walked the the scrub oaks and my team and I spent 20 mins searching the small area and even scratching around in the leaves looking for a trap door or something. We found nothing. I had noticed that the person/creature moved deliberately with stealth and confidence to the concealed position of the scrub oaks and seemingly vanished into thin air. I had the unnerving feeling that it was far more intelligent than us. At that point I knew it wasn't a person and it wasn't some dumb apeman. The next day I was searching for water and I found a very strange vary large foot print in the sand by a creek. It was twice the size of my foot, size 9 and the heel was very pointy, like an Isoscolese triangle with toes. The creature had considerable weight based on the depth of the print. Unfortunately, back then there were no cell phone cameras. As I reflected on the situation I realized I had witnessed what we know as a bigfoot. However, I truely believe it was a superior lifeform. It had to have either cloaked itself or transported itself to another location when we tried to approach it. It did not act like it was worried about our approach. It slowly moved into those scrub oaks for cover and vanished. For reference; the stand of scrub oaks was only 30 feet in diameter.
The absolute worst evidence is "Eye witness " simply because the Brain fills in the blanks when you don't know what you're looking at. What you're describing is "Supernatural " and there's been NO EVIDENCE of that in the history of mankind...other that "Eye witness "...lol It's far, far, far more likely you misinterpreted what you saw
Great story. They like to leave a single track to let you know they’re still in the area. They’re telepathic so it knew exactly what the group was doing before it did it.
Les you could do so much stuff just with a gopro and youtube. So many camping, bigfoot, interviews, just hiking in the wilderness while telling us stories etc. No TV telling you how to do it, no given time frame etc. I'm sure you would get to millions of subs really fast:D
After I decided to talk about my encounter Scott Carpenter was so helpful in helping block out the noise from unbelievablers. Thank you Les this brings back such great memories of Scott and you. Peace 🕊️
Les, I have watched every episode of Survivorman from start to finish. We as fans feel like we know you, you have always been honest with us and been very transparent to what you do, how you do it and why. To hear you talk about the voice of "Stop and we will come to you" is one of the most fascinating things I have heard you talk about. Again I would like to think that we know you well enough that you don't BS and you take what you do very seriously. As a fan, I appreciate your honesty about that moment. Very very fascinating.
Mine too. Anderson County Tennessee. ❤👍🏻Much respect for Scott Carpenter and I miss him and his research videos. They were honest and well done for an amateur researcher. ❤😟
It's amazing how so much work, and effort you put into these videos and you still have less than a million subs. Obviously 854k subs is nothing to sneeze at, but definitely feel like you deserve WAY more. You have channels like Outdoor Boys who honestly doesn't really even do true survival, and some video's his wife will literally just drive him out to a spot where he spends one night then she comes picks him up the next day and he is out there eating stuff he brought with him like steak and potatoes, yet he has over 11 million subs getting crazy views for not doing anything near what you do in your videos. I just find that crazy.
What I like so much about your work Les, you bring the doubt and skepticism along with the open minded curiosity that many of us viewers have and appreciate. It's an explorative journey that we all share with you. I loved some episodes when you are with a fanatic where they are adamant it's big foot, and you with your experience turn to the camera, "it's a bear." While at the same time, in other episodes, you show evidence that makes this experience and the reality more plausible. I've always been a believer after much time in the wilderness with my friend. Nature is always surprising us with creatures scientists long thought were extinct. I go on a hikes now with an open mind and awareness. Looking forward to this and hope that your kickstarter is successful!
I was on a 50 mile hike with scout's in and around Devil's Punchbowl, California. The woods looked destroyed, especially along the hiking trail. It looked like trees were thrown on the trail, not just fallen, as if the wilderness wanted to block human entrance to that area. We continued along and got to several of our destinations. On our last day I did a whoop and got a return call. Then on our way out, the trail we had just come through looked even more gnarly with a fresh large healthy tree thrown across the trail. I was glad to get out of there, it was a beautiful hike and experience, but it felt like the forest didn't want us to be there. The skeptic in me, inspired by Les, kept looking above and below the trail, to see if the damage viewed along the trail was a natural cause. But, above and below the trail, the forest looked "normal" with a few trees random down here and there, but nothing extreme like what was on the trail.

Holy cow! Hi survivorman!!! The original!! My folks and I would watch your show religiously. Hi from Winnebago county Illinois! Family is all from up north Wisconsin and u.p. love ya brother
Rip Scott Carpenter ! Thank you Les for sharing and teaching us about the wilds most of us never experience like our ancestors did . Be blessed and looking forward to the BF documentary
Can't help but think that you may be kicking your own ass in retrospect for telling them you weren't ready to see them lol I LOVE these series! Looking forward to your new Sasquatch film 😊😊
The Sasquatch phenomenon is exploding, the topic has nearly limitless potential for compelling content with tens of thousands of people coming forward to tell about their encounters.
I noticed yesterday that a large dead log that was lying perpendicular to another one in the woods behind my house had been picked up and placed over the other one sometime between a week ago and yesterday. I have a lot of activity going on back there. 40 acres belongs to me and the southern 77 belongs to my sister so I know that nobody goes back there. Besides, some of the things I find are impossible for humans to do.
What a great video to enjoy my morning coffee with. I've been watching Les since survivorman would air on discovery channel 15 as a boy. I never realized how much his personality and film making has influenced me and my interest in the wilderness, mystery, and survival until I started watching on youtube again as an adult. Les, you are a legend and a great influence to many. Hello from South East Alaska!
So glad I found your channel, I watched these episodes when they aired, its great to get a new perspective and added insights! I definitely believe in telepathy, I recently made a friend who reads my mind! The other day I had a thought and she said it out loud not 10 seconds later, blew my mind! And this has happened on numerous occasions and we don't even know each other well enough yet for that! 🤯
Yeaaa there’s a moment in this episode that really resonates, and it’s why I’m still hesitant to bring a thermal cam. Yes it would be great to get footage. But do I REALLY want to see something standing there looking at me when I’m alone in the dark? No. No I do not. Can’t wait for your film Les! The goat!!
I’ve been watching you since I was in kindergarten (I’m 21 and married now). I remember getting so scared watching the Bigfoot mini series for the first time I couldn’t sleep and my mom got so mad (she beat my a** so bad) at me for waking her up.
My family had some serious issues with UFO activity and what appeared to be a really scary haunting in a home my dad had built new in Louisiana that we moved into in 1966. I despise hoaxes. We saw a floating, glowing, red head in that home that looked like something from a horror movie. It didn`t look human. My friend Joel described it as an "evil pumpkin head" so I know he saw the same thing I saw. Some of the activity followed me after we moved but it was more random. My older sister and her friends saw an aggressive screaming Bigfoot in that region on a pipeline. The "whoops" were a common sound when I camped, hunted, trapped, fished and hiked a lot in the 70s/80s but I thought it was owls or animals until I got internet in 2000. I`ve never seen tracks but others have found them.
Crazy thing is I could have taken Les down a little trail behind my house in a neighborhood a few years ago and had all kinds of encounters. They would follow me out all the time leave me gifts even come to my bedroom window. It was wild a this was just outside of Atlanta Georgia.
Thank you for the honesty with the telepathy portion. I had a very strange experience around Gaudineer Knob, WV where I believed 3 “beings” were speaking to each other; very guttural & ape-like in close proximity. Backcountry camper for life and haven’t shared with many people…all hair stood on end for quite some time.
Hey Les as an Aussie who discovered you a couple years ago through my interest in YOWIEs ( Aussie big foot/sasquatch) I just wanted to say how much I love watching your films. You really add some authenticity and integrity to this incredible and fascinating subject and to hear you now reveal what you heard in your mind on that trek out of the woods is just fantastic. I totally understand why you'd be hesitant to say anything at the time but I'm so glad you now feel comfortable enough to share your experience. Quite a few testimonials I've listened to on the amazing AYR channel- Australian Yowie Research channel have testified of having somewhat similar experiences to you and it definitely seems they have an amazing supernatural ability to communicate telepathically. Look forward to whatever you do next. Cheers.
I live in TN near the Smokies. I saw a bigfoot in a place called Goby here in TN which is near Frozen Head State Park. My husband and I hike a lot and now have seen many signs of them as well. We have found tracks on trail near the Cumberland Plateau area. I have video of the track on my RUclips channel. My husband and I have been asked to be members of East TN Bigfoot. Matt Seeber who was friends with Scott Carpenter is the founder of East Tn Bigfoot. He says I am a magnet for them, this is not a good thing. We have had many encounters since I saw that one back a few years ago. If you want to know where I saw it, I could tell you. Maybe you could have your own encounter there. Love your work, Less. ❤
I was Yowie researching a couple of years ago here in Australia when I had my first clear vocal experience. Whilst eating dinner at the camp fire, from behind my tent, I heard a close and clear “ Whoa Whoa, Way Yaah”. There was nobody within miles around me at the time. I also came across potential prints and structures throughout the area. It was such a fantastic experience.
Since you said you don't give a shit anymore. I live just over an hour and a half from where Scott took you. To the East of there so you know. I've seen 3 during the day. My foster son and I had 4 around us one night last fall. We have had an experience with something that was not one of them. It tried to get Bobby, the foster son, to come into the woods. It got me. If you hadn't told them NO, you may have gotten the experience you have been looking for. Good luck.
Your telepathy story reminds me of my own experience. As a kid growing up in a rural village in Vietnam, I was terrified of the dark and ghosts. I remember one night I was running to a neighbor's house to call my uncle to come home. As I got tired, I squatted down on the ground to rest. The moment I stood up, I had this vision of a being following me, jumping from the top of one palm tree to another, just following me. I didn't tell anyone about it right away because I wasn't sure if I believed what it was and I didn't understand why I saw it the way I did. Perhaps I was scared of the dark and from being alone, that I allowed my own imagination to take over. Till this day, I'm still not sure.
Bears are indeed attracted to the batteries in the cameras. I have an example of this in a video on my channel. A black bear attacked my camera but it remained fastened to the tree.
Hi Les, Thank you for sharing your experience with mind-speak. It’s fascinating and resonates deeply with something I went through myself. I had an incident while I was with my daughter one afternoon on a wet, overcast day. The conditions felt almost surreal, and I’d already had some other unusual experiences earlier that day. In my case, I distinctly felt a similar kind of communication-a clear, almost foreign voice in my mind that didn’t feel like my own thoughts or delusions. The message was profound and left me with the same kind of fear and awe you described. It wasn’t threatening, but I remember thinking I wasn’t ready for that level of interaction either. I really respect how openly you’re able to share this. These moments are hard to categorize, and it’s refreshing to hear someone describe it without embellishing or trying to convince others of what it was. It’s just an experience-a powerful one-and we’re left to process it in our own way. Your story reminded me that these connections, whatever they may be, happen to people who aren’t looking for them, which makes them even more compelling. Thanks for validating that this kind of experience isn’t as isolated as it sometimes feels. Keep doing what you’re doing, and thank you for being genuine about it all. Best regards,
Well what did the dang voice say!? I have heard mind speak also but it was just my name being shouted in my head. It was odd each time and not scary just werid. Last time I was just relaxing laying on a couch in my basement family room by myself.
I appreciate the insight to your experience, I know you said you dont care about it anymore but its still a big thing to admit with hearing voices and stuff.
The sound from Scott, sounds (to me) like a big cat about to throw up.. Even my house cat sounds like that when he is about to throw up.. That was the first thing that came to my mind
@@CarharttCowboyyes they are there. Some will tell you they aren't but any mountainous and large wilderness area where there are plenty of if not too many deer to take down as well as many other smaller creatures you're gonna find these stealthy almost invisible creatures.
I'm one of the" lucky" few that have had a face to face with one of these creatures, it leaves you questioning everything you've been told doesn't exist. Life will never be the same.
I have heard you speak about the 1st telepathy incident once before somewhere. What struck me as funny was the statement you made in the episode that you wanted to search alone for bigfoot shortly after having been given that opportunity directly but turning it down. I'm sure if you had no more interactions with them there that was exactly or very near their reasoning for not appearing again. The opportunity was given but you weren't ready and so they likely saw the rest of your search as wanting to find them but not seriously because of fear. Interesting to think about. I'm sure I would have been extremely fearful as well given such opportunity. I know it doesn't matter much but, I believe your experience 100%. Thanks for posting the video Les. I hope you get an opportunity again IF and only IF you may actually want one.
Thank you Les!!! Big fan of Survivorman , I have seen these beings with my own two eyes, had them invade my dreams, had multiple encounters. They are real as you and I are. A mystery as good as they come. T Y from Michigan ❤!!
I can't stand this. I've seem this comment from so many people so sorry you're the one that finally got me to comment but did you know Scott personally? If so I apologize because you would have more knowledge than others but if you don't know him you can't really say that he was a good man because the only Scott we saw was on camera. Everybody and I mean everybody acts differently when they are on camera. I'm not saying he was a bad guy either I'm just saying I don't understand how so many people can say that he was a good man without personally knowing him. Everyone has their skeletons or demons. People get these parasocial relationships with these YT where they watch them so much and listen to them talk so much that you think you know them personally when you don't. It's something that people should be very aware of. I myself have had this happen to me as well and I actually got a response from the person who's channel it was who told me exactly what I'm telling you. He said that I didn't know him personally so I can't really say what I say and have it be the truth because I really don't know.
Great episode, Scott Carpenter was a great researcher! It is good to hear you stand by your experience and finally mention it in connection with your show. You've told this already in one of the Sasquatch Chronicles shows with Wes Germer in a multi-part interview, but now more people will know of this, luckily. The universe is much more mysterious & complex than our world views, beliefs and prejudices allow it to be.
Long time fan. I watched trees behind you shaking on your Cananda big foot series I believe it was, at a remote lake in Canada a few years back . Thank you for sharing your time Les 🤘🏼
I own 9000 hectares in Australia and it’s in the aboriginal area with a strong heritage belief of yowies the Aus version of Bigfoot. I have a few stories and even a police report of something that makes no sense and like you Les I had a telepathic moment that stopped me in my tracks, even typing this makes me think that maybe I am cuckoo.

What a great video to enjoy my morning coffee with. I've been watching Les since survivorman would air on discovery channel 15 as a boy. I never realized how much his personality and film making has influenced me and my interest in the wilderness, mystery, and survival until I started watching on youtube again as an adult. Les, you are a legend and a great influence to many. Hello from South East Alaska!
Thankful for a new Les Stroud commentary today!
Same here, unlisted - was surprised when I went to the directors commentary to replay Radium Mtn... surprised, but stoked!
So glad I found your channel, I watched these episodes when they aired, its great to get a new perspective and added insights! I definitely believe in telepathy, I recently made a friend who reads my mind! The other day I had a thought and she said it out loud not 10 seconds later, blew my mind! And this has happened on numerous occasions and we don't even know each other well enough yet for that! 🤯
That possible Sasquatch chatter always gives me chills when I hear it after hearing something similar during my sighting near Temagami Ontario.
Yeaaa there’s a moment in this episode that really resonates, and it’s why I’m still hesitant to bring a thermal cam. Yes it would be great to get footage. But do I REALLY want to see something standing there looking at me when I’m alone in the dark? No. No I do not. Can’t wait for your film Les! The goat!!
We miss you les
I’ve been watching you since I was in kindergarten (I’m 21 and married now). I remember getting so scared watching the Bigfoot mini series for the first time I couldn’t sleep and my mom got so mad (she beat my a** so bad) at me for waking her up.
Nobody does survival like Les, a true legend
Agree.
RIP scott Carpenter, he was such a kind man :(
My family had some serious issues with UFO activity and what appeared to be a really scary haunting in a home my dad had built new in Louisiana that we moved into in 1966. I despise hoaxes. We saw a floating, glowing, red head in that home that looked like something from a horror movie. It didn`t look human. My friend Joel described it as an "evil pumpkin head" so I know he saw the same thing I saw. Some of the activity followed me after we moved but it was more random. My older sister and her friends saw an aggressive screaming Bigfoot in that region on a pipeline. The "whoops" were a common sound when I camped, hunted, trapped, fished and hiked a lot in the 70s/80s but I thought it was owls or animals until I got internet in 2000. I`ve never seen tracks but others have found them.
Crazy thing is I could have taken Les down a little trail behind my house in a neighborhood a few years ago and had all kinds of encounters. They would follow me out all the time leave me gifts even come to my bedroom window. It was wild a this was just outside of Atlanta Georgia.
Thank you for the honesty with the telepathy portion. I had a very strange experience around Gaudineer Knob, WV where I believed 3 “beings” were speaking to each other; very guttural & ape-like in close proximity. Backcountry camper for life and haven’t shared with many people…all hair stood on end for quite some time.
Wow. "I'm trying not to suggest that" 🤯 when you knew and felt it was there. That's just wild .💪🏽
Hey Les as an Aussie who discovered you a couple years ago through my interest in YOWIEs ( Aussie big foot/sasquatch) I just wanted to say how much I love watching your films. You really add some authenticity and integrity to this incredible and fascinating subject and to hear you now reveal what you heard in your mind on that trek out of the woods is just fantastic. I totally understand why you'd be hesitant to say anything at the time but I'm so glad you now feel comfortable enough to share your experience. Quite a few testimonials I've listened to on the amazing AYR channel- Australian Yowie Research channel have testified of having somewhat similar experiences to you and it definitely seems they have an amazing supernatural ability to communicate telepathically. Look forward to whatever you do next. Cheers.
People have claimed to have seen Bigfoot in the area of Elgin New Brunswick Canada👍Thank You Les 🙂💙👍
Hey Les, I've listened to some of your songs on Spotify, they're excellent! " Bittern Lake " "Snowshoes and Solitude "👍🏆🥇
I'm excited to be able to back this film, And even more so to watch it once it's finished
This was awesome! I absolutely love it! I can't believe I missed this year's ago!
I live in TN near the Smokies. I saw a bigfoot in a place called Goby here in TN which is near Frozen Head State Park. My husband and I hike a lot and now have seen many signs of them as well. We have found tracks on trail near the Cumberland Plateau area. I have video of the track on my RUclips channel. My husband and I have been asked to be members of East TN Bigfoot. Matt Seeber who was friends with Scott Carpenter is the founder of East Tn Bigfoot. He says I am a magnet for them, this is not a good thing. We have had many encounters since I saw that one back a few years ago. If you want to know where I saw it, I could tell you. Maybe you could have your own encounter there. Love your work, Less. ❤
I’m glad you’re updating your Bigfoot series now with Directors Cut. It has motivated me watch continue watching again. Great video. Thank you!😊
I was Yowie researching a couple of years ago here in Australia when I had my first clear vocal experience. Whilst eating dinner at the camp fire, from behind my tent, I heard a close and clear “ Whoa Whoa, Way Yaah”. There was nobody within miles around me at the time. I also came across potential prints and structures throughout the area. It was such a fantastic experience.
Whereabouts in aus is this? Let's go yowie researching together if you're around Sydney
@ It was at Toolangi State Forest in Victoria. I’m in Victoria unfortunately, but I would love to research in NSW and Queensland one day.
Being an outdoorsman and hunter living in East Tennessee my whole life, the woods can feel so spooky once it gets dark here
Since you said you don't give a shit anymore. I live just over an hour and a half from where Scott took you. To the East of there so you know. I've seen 3 during the day. My foster son and I had 4 around us one night last fall. We have had an experience with something that was not one of them. It tried to get Bobby, the foster son, to come into the woods. It got me. If you hadn't told them NO, you may have gotten the experience you have been looking for. Good luck.
Love these director’s commentaries ❤
A very common thing in the Bible when humans come into contact with angels, is feeling immense fear. Usually, the angel would say 'be not afraid'.
Les man, you’re the best. Happy holidays.
Your telepathy story reminds me of my own experience. As a kid growing up in a rural village in Vietnam, I was terrified of the dark and ghosts. I remember one night I was running to a neighbor's house to call my uncle to come home. As I got tired, I squatted down on the ground to rest. The moment I stood up, I had this vision of a being following me, jumping from the top of one palm tree to another, just following me. I didn't tell anyone about it right away because I wasn't sure if I believed what it was and I didn't understand why I saw it the way I did.
Perhaps I was scared of the dark and from being alone, that I allowed my own imagination to take over. Till this day, I'm still not sure.
Les, these are absolutely brilliant. I love watching your commentary on Bigfoot and survival! Thank you for making these, looking forward to more!!
Definitely the easiest Kickstarter decision I've ever made, can't wait for the new documentary.
Your on the right trail. Keep on truckin and thanks. You are an apple in my eye. 🍎❤
Sasquatch can't hide from Les!! So excited to see a new video!! Can't wait to see the coming project "The Question of Bigfoot!!"
I love these director commentary, especially the Bigfoot series.
David Paulides talked Les into the GPS tracker.....you know he did. LoL
That's adorable.
Bears are indeed attracted to the batteries in the cameras. I have an example of this in a video on my channel. A black bear attacked my camera but it remained fastened to the tree.
Hi Les,
Thank you for sharing your experience with mind-speak. It’s fascinating and resonates deeply with something I went through myself. I had an incident while I was with my daughter one afternoon on a wet, overcast day. The conditions felt almost surreal, and I’d already had some other unusual experiences earlier that day.
In my case, I distinctly felt a similar kind of communication-a clear, almost foreign voice in my mind that didn’t feel like my own thoughts or delusions. The message was profound and left me with the same kind of fear and awe you described. It wasn’t threatening, but I remember thinking I wasn’t ready for that level of interaction either.
I really respect how openly you’re able to share this. These moments are hard to categorize, and it’s refreshing to hear someone describe it without embellishing or trying to convince others of what it was. It’s just an experience-a powerful one-and we’re left to process it in our own way.
Your story reminded me that these connections, whatever they may be, happen to people who aren’t looking for them, which makes them even more compelling. Thanks for validating that this kind of experience isn’t as isolated as it sometimes feels.
Keep doing what you’re doing, and thank you for being genuine about it all.
Best regards,
Well what did the dang voice say!?
I have heard mind speak also but it was just my name being shouted in my head. It was odd each time and not scary just werid. Last time I was just relaxing laying on a couch in my basement family room by myself.
@adammalzahn7238 The voice that spoke to me was a deep, rough male voice saying, " CHAD!". Reminded me of the Incredible Hulk talking!
I would love to meet Les .. if Les stands by it I'll believe..more so than anyone else in his field or experience
I appreciate the insight to your experience, I know you said you dont care about it anymore but its still a big thing to admit with hearing voices and stuff.
The sound from Scott, sounds (to me) like a big cat about to throw up.. Even my house cat sounds like that when he is about to throw up.. That was the first thing that came to my mind
That's what came to my mind. Not sure if there are Mountain Lions or Cougars as we call them here in 🇨🇦, in the Smoky Mountains
@@CarharttCowboyyes they are there. Some will tell you they aren't but any mountainous and large wilderness area where there are plenty of if not too many deer to take down as well as many other smaller creatures you're gonna find these stealthy almost invisible creatures.
Scott and all of us thank you Les!
I'm one of the" lucky" few that have had a face to face with one of these creatures, it leaves you questioning everything you've been told doesn't exist. Life will never be the same.
Happy Thanksgiving Les! Hope all is well!
Big pain day, thank you buddy I needed this
for you and me both
Les, thanks for sharing about your experience with the being “talking” to you. Very gripping to listen to. Can only imagine that would have been like.
Love Survivorman Bigfoot!! Especially in the Appalachian Mountains!!
Heather Ross-White here, good to see some new ones , hope you are well ..from Loire , France
He’s almost there 😂👍🏽😎🤙🏽❤️ 1 million subscribers,
Scott Carpenter what a legend!!! R.i.p. Brother!!!
I have heard you speak about the 1st telepathy incident once before somewhere. What struck me as funny was the statement you made in the episode that you wanted to search alone for bigfoot shortly after having been given that opportunity directly but turning it down. I'm sure if you had no more interactions with them there that was exactly or very near their reasoning for not appearing again. The opportunity was given but you weren't ready and so they likely saw the rest of your search as wanting to find them but not seriously because of fear. Interesting to think about. I'm sure I would have been extremely fearful as well given such opportunity. I know it doesn't matter much but, I believe your experience 100%. Thanks for posting the video Les. I hope you get an opportunity again IF and only IF you may actually want one.
Thanks! Love your channel.
In the Romania video, that's something there for sure!
I really enjoy watching Les.
Thank you Les!!! Big fan of Survivorman , I have seen these beings with my own two eyes, had them invade my dreams, had multiple encounters. They are real as you and I are. A mystery as good as they come. T Y from Michigan ❤!!
Happy Thanksgiving les
Rest In Peace Scott Carpenter. Miss him. He was such a good man.
I can't stand this. I've seem this comment from so many people so sorry you're the one that finally got me to comment but did you know Scott personally? If so I apologize because you would have more knowledge than others but if you don't know him you can't really say that he was a good man because the only Scott we saw was on camera. Everybody and I mean everybody acts differently when they are on camera. I'm not saying he was a bad guy either I'm just saying I don't understand how so many people can say that he was a good man without personally knowing him. Everyone has their skeletons or demons. People get these parasocial relationships with these YT where they watch them so much and listen to them talk so much that you think you know them personally when you don't. It's something that people should be very aware of. I myself have had this happen to me as well and I actually got a response from the person who's channel it was who told me exactly what I'm telling you. He said that I didn't know him personally so I can't really say what I say and have it be the truth because I really don't know.
Miss Scott. Loved his uploads. Honest and caring man. His son is a gem as well. RIP Scott.❤
Survivorman forever.
Great episode, Scott Carpenter was a great researcher!
It is good to hear you stand by your experience and finally mention it in connection with your show.
You've told this already in one of the Sasquatch Chronicles shows with Wes Germer in a multi-part interview, but now more people will know of this, luckily.
The universe is much more mysterious & complex than our world views, beliefs and prejudices allow it to be.
Happy Thanksgiving bro. Scott! RIP.
I can’t wait until you get into the Dogman subject.
Long time fan. I watched trees behind you shaking on your Cananda big foot series I believe it was,
at a remote lake in Canada a few years back . Thank you for sharing your time Les 🤘🏼
Les sitting in his ranch . Got the kettle warm for bigfoot 😎
I own 9000 hectares in Australia and it’s in the aboriginal area with a strong heritage belief of yowies the Aus version of Bigfoot. I have a few stories and even a police report of something that makes no sense and like you Les I had a telepathic moment that stopped me in my tracks, even typing this makes me think that maybe I am cuckoo.
Whereabouts in aus did this happen?
@@Kurtis11266 around the Eidsvold / Monto region.
The Sabe people are the indigenous of this planet
Such a good show
We love the " survivor geek " in you. Never would want that to go away❤
When I get that creepy feeling I want Sasquatchual healing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
