    We open tonight with a very strange audio clip captured in July 2012 by a couple camping near Clipper Mills, CA.
    We'll also be speaking to Joseph, who had a terrifying encounter while on a 30-mile hike through Big Cypress National Preserve in Florida.
    He writes, ""I was a runner and I could out run anyone back in the day, I have never ran so hard in my life and every time I looked back this creature was right there.
    I thought I was going to die. As I was leaving I saw a smaller one sitting in a tree watching me. I stopped and looked up at it. I continued to run. I was so exhausted and overheated as I came out of the woods, I was in bad shape. I ended up going to the hospital. I was mumbling monsters to the EMT’s and medical staff, this has haunted me for the last ten years, I cannot get it out of my dreams at night.”

      and that way, you can also easily tell the ones who are just making it up as they go, I mean that would be seared into my mind, and I wouldn't hem haw around, stammer and uh uh...and long pauses after being asked a question because they have to hurry up and think of something etc....I guess all I'm saying is, when the experiencer tells the story, you can tell if they are lying or not....usually. The ones with tons of details...also made up. To few and to many are always suspect imo along with other things. It'd be nice to see the person tell the story. Body language says a lot, even tho I do believe you have to be careful when assessing a persons body language, especially when you don't know the person at all. Anyway, I'm babbling. Sorry.

    Important notes:
    1) If they seriously meant you harm or to kill you-they could-no problem
    2) Fear is a mind killer and leads to panic. Instead of trying to calm down just a bit (Ok they haven't attacked yet-maybe they just want me gone). Yes fear is natural but it becomes disabling at some point.
    3) He panicked to the point of contemplating suicide
    4) He left behind clothes and gear which might not be a great idea
    5) I agree the prayers of his family were vital at any rate.

      @@greenmann1217 that is an illogical question.
      First he was expressing his own subjective theory on what he thought was answered prayers.
      No one knows whose prayers are answered and whose are not.
      However God is God and only He knows the full plan and the hows and whys.
      Im sure for the common person its hard enough to figure out a chess master's moves or a war general's strategy how much more when understanding God's will and plan for the universe He created and the wanderings of His free will creatures.
      God became Man and did not spare Himself from suffering and death in order to save us from suffering and death. The love required for that sacrifice has no equal.
      We can trust He has His plan and one day all things will work out for the good of those who love Him.

      Indeed . I have so many thoughts on that subject mainly because if you keep an open mind there are several different possibilities. I don’t think everyone that has gone missing that falls under the 411 category is a result of a Sasquatch. But I do think there’s a very good possibility that some of them are. Especially in states like Texas where they are known to be Incredibly nasty. I also think that may be other cryptic’s maybe use the same kind of mind tricks that other animals like other big cats will also do this to a person. Not saying all of them do but I remember hearing that some species will actually do the same thing. Also with the missing 411 I don’t rule out the fact now that there may be a such things as other dimensions that open up. I would’ve thought all of this was crazy and until I read the book about skin walker ranch which I bought and read six months before I moved to Utah and now I have lost it, after that my brother and I went to the ranch ourselves even. And I do believe the things that are in that book and it’s possible there, who’s the say there aren’t little mini pockets of places like that in places like national Parks and forest. What’s really scary is our small community of people that actually either know or believe there is a high possibility of things like that out there is probably less than 5% of the United States population. That’s crazy to think because I believe the government knows more than us but I don’t think us or the government know or understand even 25% of what we don’t know yet. I’m not saying any of this I absolutely know is 100% true or real but I do think some of this stuff is. Still, it’s scary to think about everything we don’t know.

    Joseph, if you should read this today's date is November 23, 2021. Within the last 2 weeks I listened to a You Tube from a RN who cared for you in the ER. She hoped you would someday hear this confession of hers. She apologized PROFUSELY for the disparaging way she treated you. She repented for not believing you. Why? A few years after that she had her own Bigfoot experience. The way she treated you haunts her to this day. I will go through my you tube history and see if I can find the link and post it here.

Simply a large eye & Hook type barn door lock they had to lock their front door. The 5”-6” long hook started swinging up slow and pounding down hard against the door trim. Like a hand would operate a door knocker. Probably 7-8 times. I only watched the hook movement and saw no physical apparitions.

    At 32 minutes and 20 seconds somewhere in there you asked him why he thought they didn't hurt him. And he said because his family was praying for him. That very well could be true but also you have to take into consideration that if these beings are intelligent they don't want more unwanted attention like a search crew coming through there looking for him something like that. Does that make sense. Maybe they just saw no benefit and hurting him. And didn't think they needed to.

    I was solo camping. One evening at dusk I decided to urinate before I got in my tent to sleep. I was next to a swamp so I hitched up my frock, hung my ass over the edge and began pissing like a rhinoceros. All of a sudden a big black hairy creature walked towards me. I picked up my handbag and threw it at the intruder. This caused me to involuntarily discharge a big thunderclap fart. The creature starting laughing hysterically. While it was distracted I pulled up my bloomers and ran 50 miles back to my van. I'm very hesitant about camping in the Everglades now.

If I am hiking the swamp, i an going to carry one of the old Remington 600's I have. Only about 6.5 pounds loaded. I have one in 308 and another in 350 Remington Magnum. The 350 will handle anything walking with the right bullet.

    The Sasquatches will generally warn you to stay away first by making whooping sounds and hitting sticks against trees. If you continue to proceed further into their territory, they'll get more aggressive. So if you ever hear the whoops and sticks hitting trees, just turn around.

    Very lucky man. These creatures don't allow themselves to be seen unless they want to be. Natives would consider it a blessing (or a warning in slightly different circumstances). Although I would discourage everyone from publicizing their encounters. Once you know for a fact they exist, you would want to work to protect them. They are very, very special. Magical beings. The deep woods are also very special. Both need to be protected at all costs.

    People have fired large calibers at these creatures before, 12 gauge, .308, etc, and the reports say the creatures make a loud noise and retreat back into the woods, they sometimes return a few days later. In the case of boggy creek the creature was shot so many times by so many different people that it retreat so deep into the Arkansas back woods, that the sightings diminished to just a handful of people that went back in there for about thirty years when it returned.
