I believe!
That ain’t Sasquatch, that’s Wookie!
Very interesting, thanks for posting it. I noticed that the segment had 51,009 views when I first got there. I closed YouTube, then returned just to reverify the number, but it had not changed. Guess I don’t understand how that works.
Lucky for him it wasn’t Loch Ness Monster;
It was then that I noticed the sweat running down my face. And under my arms. But I still continued to watch that area for a good hour.
I next made my way around the slope of the hill towards our camp. Which was less than a mile away. I walked as softly as I could. And stopped often to listen.
I made it back to the camp and just collapsed. I had never been so wound up. For a guy that was only 15 to see something like that. Alone in the woods. Stories about Bigfoot were not common at the time. There might be a mention once or twice a year. But nothing like later when all the books and TV shows came out. Plus like today with the net.
Im 60 now. Thats one of my stories. Believe it if you want to or not. Im a former Police Officer. Ive passed numerous background checks and polygraphs.

Everybody has a camera phone today. If there isn’t a picture today, then it didn’t happen. I don’t give a rat’s ass if it is Bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster, the abominable snowman, a UFO or a ghost. Everybody and their brother has a quality camera in their smartphone and there is no excuse anymore for the lack of a picture whenever anybody comes up with one of these fantasy stories.
“Pics or it didn’t happen” is a flat out fact today.
This is how I know there is no such thing as Bigfoot. We would have genuine un-doctored photos already.
On the Rockies, a man who was leading one of those bigfoot expeditions in the peaks asked me for directions to a place next to a particular peak. He and his colleagues wanted to camp there for a night. I was interested to know why he was involved in that effort and asked about it.
He explained to me that it was one of several psychological efforts to direct more people towards Atheism.
I said that was very interesting and to be on the alert for bears, listen for the sounds that they make around dusk in the peaks (mostly woofing from slightly higher elevations than the people they’re drooling over), etc. That area was infested with large, aggressive bears. The locals didn’t want public attention drawn to that particular breed of bears in that particular area, because they didn’t want to get in trouble for defensive killings of a so-called endangered species (a huge, stubborn, aggressive breed). According to local, hushed discussions, if bad came to worse, someone could theoretically say that an enormous dead bear that had destroyed their front door was only a black bear.
“He explained to me that it was one of several psychological efforts to direct more people towards Atheism.”
In regards to that, by the way, the leader of the bigfoot expedition explained to me that it was one of several efforts to get more thoughts about the missing link into more people’s minds. He said that such thoughts conveyed by their reports tend to sway more people towards evolution and Atheism.
Funny how his Grandfather had been following him to see what kind of squirrel hunter he was, but had to ask him whether or not he had killed any squirrels. HMMMMM!
My son has a great bigfoot encounter story he tells.
In short, he and his wife were camping when, at about 2:00am, something started gurgling/howling near their tent. He grabbed his shotgun and flashlight. It circled their campsite, moving through the brush. He had had encounters with bears before and this did not sound like a bear. He finally shined his flashlight on it.
It was about 8 or 9 feet tall, furry, and it’s eyes reflected back the light, reddish.
One more gurgle/howl and it turned and went deeper into the woods.
They grabbed everything, tossed it in the back of the truck, and hauled ass home.
He won’t come right out and say it was bigfoot, just that it was something large, hairy, and very loud.
