______________________
In August 1976, Police Officer Brian Gosselin had a face-to-face encounter with a Bigfoot-type creature on Abair Road in Whitehall, NY. This event set off a firestorm of publicity and has become a landmark case that has withstood the test of time. Brian encountered this creature just 30 feet in front of him, in his spotlight, with his pistol pointed directly at it, but he did not shoot. In “Abair Road, The True Story,” Brian is sharing the events that took place that night along with a great deal of information that has never been shared before.

I will be also speaking to Greg and Greg writes “Hello Wes, I wish greatly that I could maintain a correspondence and tell you how proud I am of your tireless effort in this area, but, unfortunately, I am wrestling w/ sending you an account, an encounter as you call it.”
The encounter took place in 1979 in Texas. The witness had been giving food to a homeless veteran. The witness who was 10 at the time rode with his friends on their bikes down to see the man. When they pulled up the homeless vet was yelling at the boys to get out of there and than he turned and was yelling at something else in the bushes. The homeless man took the food and started throwing it at this thing.
The creature came out on all fours, Greg said “It moved kind of like a spider, it came out of the bushes on all fours grabbing the food and eating it.”
The homeless man took off running. Greg said “I hold so much regret in my heart for giving this man food. I feel like this thing ate this guy and it was my fault. We never saw him again, he left everything behind.”
My final guest tonight is Christopher Noel. Christopher Noel is a Burlington, Vermont-based sasquatch researcher. Noel brings to his study an academic tone, and rightly so. For two decades, this Yale philosophy graduate taught at the Vermont College of Fine Arts.
Chris writes “We need a radically new approach to Sasquatch research. For much too long, we have stereotyped our next of kin, certain that they must confine themselves only to the most remote wilderness, occasionally sneaking up to campsites just long enough to scare the hell out of us before withdrawing once again to the far corners of the forest. Incorrect. Increasingly, evidence is pointing a different way, toward an intimate proximity between our two species.”
We will be discussing Chris’s new book: Next of Kin Next Door: How to Find Sasquatch a Stone’s Throw Away

To the people making awful comments about the middle guy: he was a child when it happened. Grown men get ptsd from an encounter, he was like 10 without an adult with him and he thinks it killed another guy and blames himself. You can tell by the waves of emotion that come and go he’s not spinning a lie. He’s never dealt with it, and when he speaks it comes rushing out. It’s broken his view of the world and he’s terrified. I’d love to see how some of you big brave computer warriors would react in the same situation.
@@metal_mumma completely agree!
I personally couldn’t listen to his whole story. He sounded like he had been drinking to calm himself enough to speak but he was so all over the place with his story that I simply couldn’t follow along. Self medicating isn’t any way to go through life (I know this first hand). Hopefully he gets the help he needs or finds a way to be at peace
@@joecoastie99Drinking?
@@joecoastie99it's easy to say how to handle it, but it affects everyone different, and some ppl have major trouble dealing with it. I know, I haven't had an encounter, I couldn't imagine, but just Knowing what I know now, is enough to cause super anxiety, especially at night, Delivering to houses in the woods in the pitch black, as I am an Amazon delivery driver. It's not easy, I'm jumpy as fuck out there at night lol. So however someone copes with that, I will never knock them. It may not be the right way, but it may be the only way for some.
He needs to go to therapy. He hasn’t healed for over 40 years and should have by now. Therapy will help him disassociate the event from his current sense of guilt as a grown man. His hysterics are still those of a child and therein lies the issue. I hope telling his account was helpful. He should seek help because he’s getting worse and not better. His guilt has now grown to the point where he feels it for simply protecting his children.
This guy from Texas with the encounter in 1979 with the homeless man is by far in my Top 3. Number one is the young man that goes on the trail in FL to solo camp and gets chased out to the point he prays allowed / contemplated his own life. Number two is another hunter that’s flanked out in a terrifying way by an aggressive female Sasquatch. THIS one here is 3rd. That’s genuine fear in this man’s voice, people don’t cry “pretty” or sound “graceful” when it’s actual fear. People disgust me with their keyboard judgement. Bravo buddy, you grew up similar to how I did & a great story.
could you please link me for these episodes? or tell me the episode number - thank you
🎯🎯‼️‼️
Can someone tell me why no one has ever found bones
@@Jrgong1986can someone tell me why we’ve never found bear bones??? When it comes to one dying of natural causes, not one near skeleton
Absolutely PTSD and while he is telling this, he's reliving it. If you cannot understand that, then shame on you. Wes you did a very good job on this one.
You really do relive it.👍
The degree of this man's childhood trauma is over the top, it's like he is reliving what he saw. His raw feelings are disturbing to hear and I cannot imagine the pain he has. Hopefully his telling his story here, will be therapeutic to him and he can put it all behind him.
Less not Wes
@@Sasquatchflowit’s actual Wes Germer but Les Stroud is promoting it.
@@cpnorrisjr3 Yes, I was complimenting Wes on the interview.
For a while I thought the second guy was on drugs with how agitated he was telling his story, but I totally changed my mind after a little bit. he didn't deviate from the story, just reliving it kinda telling the details his 10 years old brain fixated on. The guy is terrified reliving this memory, terrified even to be in the woods, refuses to allow his children into the woods. I'm really glad I didn't write this guy off, great interview
Anyone who knows about drugs and drug use knows this gentleman is not on drugs, this is terror in his voice. So all of ya that think anything different is drugs, are sadly mistaken. People are people, and this poor man having to relive this, must have been terrible.
I personally love Greg, he's just reliving it with all his 10yr old emotion PLUS knowledge of other encounters he's heard, just adding to the anxiety! I don't see that this guy is on alcohol or meth, as was said in the comments. He's got guilt for sure. He was the oldest of the group. What he needs is to realize he had no control over the situation and forgive himself. I knew he was all over the place but he tried like hell to make it back to the point. The memory gives him anxiety, uneducated anxiety. God go with you Greg!
Uneducated anxiety...not uneducated (scheesch )
You’re a far better man than I , dear Marcie. And I don’t have a spare laptop if I allow him to infiltrate my peace any longer and use this one for target practice tonight. It’s not typical of ptsd to stop oneself mid-sentence to apologize for using bad language and then resume , complete with hyperventilating…I’m trying to be nice here. I’ve got no problem at all for someone to use a channel like this to try and deal with trauma , but this isn’t that. He goes from full-on heavy breathing and uncontrollable crying … to , 🎶”Hey, hey we’re the Monkees !” Check , please ! G’night miss Marcie .
Nah he was on something at the time. He was everywhere
To call a bigfoot an asshole is hilarious!😂
I was dieing when he said that !!! Lmfaooo… I usually listen no matter how weird the story or people are cuz there’s alot of shit goin on out in the world that we can’t imagine.. the history we were taught is one big bullshit lie, so we need to be ready for the possibility that some answers to the questions we seek are going to be horrifyingly fucked up.. this guy is too much though, fake crying to add a little effect to his story…
@@stoshbrodus21479There's Absolutely nothing Fake going on with this Guy, He has been Traumatized to the MAXIMUM level, It's too Bad the old Vet couldn't or didn't tell anyone local to where this 💩 happened that He's Out, And never coming back to Texas to live in the woods.
I was reading ur comment just as he was calling it a A--hole!! Lol
🤣

Man, i pray your PTSD is relieved and diminished with the power of our Lords love. Im there for you spiritually brother, you had no fault in this encounter, zero. God bless you.
Why would God let someone get ptsd in the first place 🤔
@@Trapperboy190Don't blame God.
@@Trapperboy190do you have a real relationship with Jesus Christ, have you asked Jesus Christ to reveal himself to you.. And He will.... Just take the time to ask Jesus Christ to reveal himself to you & only you will know, he is speaking to you....
Having Jesus Christ is not about religion, its only about a real relationship, with him, and becoming family... John 3 v 15-18
@@19jch76 AMEN!!! Well said, my friend. God bless you
To the man telling the story and was bouncing all over the place, crying during some of it....if I didn't believe before, I believe now. I just wanted to hug his 10 year old self and let him cry and tell him he is strong. This story will change the way I listen to encounters. Thank you for sharing sir. Allow yourself to heal.
Or he is mentally ill
I would undoubtedly feel similarly if I'd never heard that guy call Art Bell's program and start into his spiel about Evil Knievel.
Plus, he slips into and out of character far too frequently for my suspicion not to be piqued.
Give him a hug and tell him to quit smoking the crystals
@@HamCubes Do you remember what the call was about? Was it also sasquatch related? I want to see if I can find a recording somewhere.
@@Stand1ngBear I will check my History tab.
It was memorable for me because Art cut him right off, right when I was thinking "The caller's has his story memorized or he's reading a script."
Art was abrupt in a way that made me wonder if he (or his producer/ someone in his wormhole instant messenger), recognized the caller's voice or story.
Off the top of my head, I think it was the night Art had the Sierra Sounds guy on iirc. Or the professor from University of Idaho, Jeff Meldrum. Ph.D.
It was someone who impressed me.
I don't know why I wrote this novella before even searching! 🤦🏼♀️
I'm going to look now since I've had enough caffeine to wake up the crew aboard an aircraft carrier.
That retired police officer is the greatest storyteller of his time.
Was the retired police officer Les Strowd talking or was he someone else? I couldn't figure out who Les was thanks
I hate when people take 15 minutes to tell a three minute story.
Greatest true story teller. Every word of his story is true . I live 150 Mike's from Whitehall and have followed this story since grade school.
I dont care what anyone says, that second interview was amazing and i believe that guy. I hope he gets help and can chill out but he was definitely effected by a asshole bigfoot.
He shouldn’t have been in the show , he’s obviously not very well . I hope he’s doing ok
After 40 years of trauma, I seriously doubt he’ll get help, reminds me of a family member who was on meth could never stay focused to tell their story whether it was true or not, God speed to him!!
I live in VT, I've seen a balding brownish reddish tinted humanoid face staring at me through a Hemlock branch. I measured the height the next day, 9'3" was about the middle of its face. It moved so smoothly , it was as if it was kind of floating .it had to step down 6 to 7 fermet into a brook. Not a sound was made.
Humidity face?
@jessica2brook damn auto screw up instead of auto correct. It was supposed to be a humanoid face . Damn androids auto correct.
@@edgeon5801 ah ok makes sense. Terrifying!
@jessica2brook It was scary, what was scarier than that, a shimmery predator like , human shaped blob that was moving 35 feet away from me. It had green oak leaves stuck to it, which were visible and moving with it. That's scary. At least I had an idea of what the 9'3"+ being was. This predator, like being, could be any of these other monsters out there. All of this is on the same property, a property I've heard wood knocks, weird howls,( not a wolf nor a coyote) I've heard 8 owls hoot in every direction that circled the house. They would talk back and forth . I've heard that 4 or 5 times now. In the 4 & 2/3rds years I've been here , there have been 15+ good live trees pushed over or just broke by themselves. They weren't snow in load victims either. This is just some of the stuff I have experienced
@@edgeon5801 thanks for sharing your experiences. That is terrifying. I understand what you mean by the predator like creature being more frightening because with the other being at least we know what it is and have some understanding and expectation of its behavior. You're right it could be anything, or something that we haven't heard of, and the unknown nature of it makes it even more scary. I have never had a sighting and I hope I never do. My father who is an extremely credible person had a sighting 20 years ago. He had a witness as well. It wasn't a frightening experience. He was driving in a very rural area on a road with forest on both sides and it quickly walked across the road. He thought it was a bear at first. It was about 8 feet tall. He said it was about as frightening as seeing a large bear from inside your car.
May God bless this man. (The second man who is still so upset) Keep him tight in your arms. He went through something so traumatic. I have heard so many very emotional personal experiences with these creatures but this man might be at the top 2 of people who are still agonizingly traumatized to this day. I think this was very therapeutic for him to get this story off his lips and chest. I can’t even imagine witnessing this.
And for anyone who doesn’t believe… neither did any of the thousands of people until they had their own mind-boggling experience. Thank goodness they have these spaces now online to express themselves and tell their account!!!!!!!!!!!!
not true I always knew bigfoot was real the day I finally got to see him he was nothing like the native elders warned he was worse much worse, natives call bigfoot the forrest guardian and respected and feared it! not everyone is in denial of reality natives tell of bigfoot some humans also listen to the elders just bacause you never thought it real don't mean everyone else is same way!
The 2nd man was obviously on dope.
Amen
My heart goes out to Greg in so many ways. What a good person to care about David so much. I grew up in the 70's, and it wasn't all Brady Bunch. Kids were abused and couldn't tell anyone. That's why alot of us turned to drugs. As hard to listen to as it is, this is one of my favorite encounters.
The first witness was excellent. I love how he explains the information he has. Gets straight to the point about everything, doesn't meander or over explain, and cuts out all of the repetitive or obvious things with "blah blah blah." Great episode, thank you all for sharing with us.
He was amazing.
all you wish cut out are actually signs of truth being recalled not a story spun so uh seriously think upon what you just verbally vommited up?
Iimo Greg showed bravery for his willingness to share his experience in such a public forum knowing full well how difficult it would be to get through it. Why would anyone fake something like that. And thank you Led (or is it Wes?) for allowing the format & supporting Greg in his efforts to share his experience. I agree with you in that I seriously doubt the homeless gentleman was eaten by sasquatch. More likely he got out while the getting' was good and for obvious reasons will never return. With respect to feelings of guilt Greg expressed about depriving his kids of the joy of the great outdoors, its never too late. There are plenty of 'partly woodsy' areas to go fishing etc where lots of people are around. Shotgun not required (nor recommended.)
Greg, please take care of yourself. I know your experience was terrifying and it’s hard to get over something like that but remember that the experience is over. You survived and you will 🌸
Officer at the beginning is fantastic with his descriptions
Agree, he just sucks your attention right in , its like you standing right there. Amazing
Cops are good observers. I just hate that he took so much abuse for being honest about what he saw.
I personally think he's full of it. I wish I could see a video of him recounting his story.
@@brianconroy7514no not full of it this is real encounters
It's moments like this when I understand why the government doesn't just tell us aliens exist, some people will just crack under the knowledge and I get it
I don't think people would if they had prior knowledge they exist before an encounter.
Imagine not knowing elephants, gorilla, lions, or giraffe exist and then running into them in a close up encounter.
Imagine no one would believe you either since they're not mainstream knowledge.
They been telling people that they exist for more than a year already.
@@chrismoltisanti2763 no they haven't. They use vague terms like "biological lifeform". This could be something as simple as a bacteria
The government did announce that aliens and UFO’s exist. In 2023. But here’s the deal- I believe it’s because they are using it for an undisclosed purpose. My BS detector is going off. After near a century of lying about it and denying it they suddenly admit it’s real? There are hearings about it you can watch here on CZcams.
@@chrismoltisanti2763name one time "they" did that.
This episode hurts me, it always breaks my heart to hear the severe trauma. I wish he would speak about it more with his wife or others who had encounters so that he could process it more and not be captive of fear. The trauma can be healed if it can at all. I know a therapist is out of the question as they won't believe him. They barely believe in medication withdrawal effects.
Hopefully he can find someone safe n who believes him
Not ALL therapists are non believers. If there are clinicians
who specialize working with UFO abductees, there has to be counselors who believe. There are likely even a few who've had their own encounters!
I'm only a few minutes into listening to the crazy guy, he reminds me of Charles Manson. Interestingly though I once spent several months listening to all the Manson interviews I could find, having listened to so many interviews back to back Manson started to seem less crazy when I realized several of his ramblings were referencing things mentioned in other interviews that wouldn't be noticed if you would only listen to the single interview. The best I could describe it was Manson seem to have an overlapping thought process. and maybe this guy is something similar.
I seriously doubt he married as many times as I’m sure he told his wife true or not doesn’t matter the guy needs help and his wife isn’t the one who can help him after 40 years of this being bottled up, he’s probably dealing with it on meth his ramblings and inability to stay focused has meth written all over it.
Greg was amazingly good... very humorous but very sad to see how traumatised he was ... hope he heals 🙏 God bless him
God bless the second guy, sending him healing 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️
God doesn't bless liars
Pray for rehab that sounds more like what he needs.
Good thing God is imaginary. Fake news.
@@josephbright3946ok edgy McEdgelord.
The details that these witnesses provided are incredible and so believable. You can tell what they experienced is seared in their memory. Thank you for sharing.
my son recorded his experience with you. Since then in Oct, 23, for one week not even looking, he was walking around ^%$#@& Lake in Idaho every day with his girlfriend-they heard whoops every day. His girlfriend said “I never heard dogs whooping around the lake like this. He never told her about his orb experience a couple yrs earlier. The last day before leaving, they went on a hike, and on the way out, they heard monkeys or gorillas chattering/screaming. When they stood at the parking trailhead, they were listening to the sound echoing through the forest. A game warden came and said “what is THAT?” I really believe my son brings in the activity. You have to pry the experiences out of him, but I believe my son is marked. He was interviewed by you on one experience, and you put it on the paranormal show. I cannot find his interview about the orbs at lake Elgin WA. Can you help me find the episode?
My favorite Episode of ALL EPISODES!!
It took me about four times to listen to Greg's story...
And more.
I just Love him!!
What an ordeal- hope he's feeling better.
Great job getting him through it, Wes.
Agreed
I'd say Greg makes one hell of a therapist but no joke poor dude traumatized hope telling his story helped him everyone reacts different to situations good stuff Les
Yes if he could get over this he could be a coach for those who lived through these encounters.
Wes
He needs on hell of a therapist. Or he needs to tell someone else his story so they can tell it in a clear and concise manner. Shame on Wes for putting this trash fire of a man on display for everyone to witness.
Telepathy is a very natural ability of all animals and more people than you realize
Definitely
I think I may have made this comment on a video before, but it just applies to so many ppl’s experiences like this man’s. But I had been asked for an interview from a local reporter in a small Tn town awhile back. I won’t get into the details but at one point I stated to the reporter that “we had several interactions with police, but they were all good interactions and the police were always understanding and even helpful.” The story written in the paper stated that we “constantly were hiding from the police.” I was livid to say the least, especially due the nature of the story, it cast a completely different light on me than who I am and the entire context of my story was altered with those words. It’s infuriating to share a story and have someone completely make up their own narrative and claim that it’s what you said.
Sue for defamation and you will win.
Any big name in media isn't worth listening or talking to
@@kennethhacker3014😂
If that isn't already illegal, it should be. Its certainly unethical, disrespectful & blatantly criminal. Defamation of character comes to mind.
Wes you have the patience of Job with Greg he was not easy to listen to! But your first caller was very credible! Thank you
Yes, the patience of Job! I had to fast forward. Dude drove me nuts, just can’t listen to him!
Wes has a true gift for holding space for another person 🦋
Not even once was he brusque even when he was cut off.
He just worked to hold the thread of the narrative intact and ask for clarification
Yeah - you are good at people Wes ✊
@anniefielding621 .I think it would would hurt you If you had that PTSD that the man has had to live and deal with his whole life.
Sounds like he was just as scared of the kids dad that left his bike behind, so he went back to get friends bike?!?
Yeah i thought that. Im not convinced that he isnt just delusional. To be that unstable about it 30 years later seems odd to say the least. To keep it a secret from your wife as you refuse to go into the woods as well.. I dunno my gut says it's a bit hinky. @@user-df7kn9pn2d
Back in the early 80’s when I was a little girl, my Grandparents took me up to see Mt. St. Helens. We parked up at the view site and hiked and stared at the destruction of the Eruption a few years before. We stayed until it was nearly dark and we’re the last vehicle leaving. There was a truck that started out of the lot and headed down the mountain about 1 minute ahead of us.
We started down the steep and windy mountain road with no sign of any other people or cars. We made it 1/3 of the way down and saw tail lights ahead in the darkness. It was the truck, something must have made them stop. As we pulled up behind the idling truck, it drove forward over some kind of bump in the road. As it drove on, we saw that the bump they drove over was a Street Sign that was laying lengthwise across both lanes. My grandparents were concerned about why it was there and that they had to move it to avoid damaging the car. So my Grandfather got out and drug the sign to the side of the road. As we continued driving we saw tail lights ahead again, but the truck just slowed down and didn’t stop. As we came up to where we saw the truck slow again we saw Another street sign laying across the lanes. My grandfather stopped and talked with my grandmother about how strange it was and they wondered if there had been some sort of accident.
We all had the creeps but my grandfather got out and started dragging the sign off the road again. My grandmother rolled her window down and so did I. We wanted to hear grandpa as he called out down the mountain “Hello? Is anyone there?”
We heard a crunching sound through the silence. It was coming from just down the nearly Vertical slope off the road. He called out again and then there was another crunch, like something big was taking a step. We heard more crunching and what ever it was was getting closer and faster. My grandmother screamed at my grandfather “Tommy Get it the Car! GET IN THE CAR!!” Meanwhile the sound of crunching kept coming up the side. He ran and jumped in the car as we rolled our windows up!! We tore out of there as fast as he could drive and as we sped off I peaked up over the backseat and briefly highlighted in the red of our tail lights I saw the shape of what I thought was a Huge Man!!
At first the figure came up over the lip of the road on all fours. As it started to stand up on its hind legs, it kept standing Up and Up and Up! It looked like a huge bark covered Man (like the gnarled bark of a huge tree) and then realized it was hair. I was Terrified!!!!
I screamed and screamed and told them I saw something!!
We got to the base of the mountain and found a gas station and had the Clerk call 911. The clerk said that a couple in a truck had stopped and reported that street signs had been snapped off at the base and laid across the road too. Everyone was all worked up about it (which being a child terrified me because I’d seen what ever it was, but they all just thought it was my imagination)
A policeman came and talked to my grandparents and then said he would be back. We waited a long time. When he got back he had a really strange look on his face and told us at first he didn’t see Any signs laying on the side of the road where we last saw them. But he noticed a crooked sign and when he inspected it he found that his was not where it should have been standing and that it had been Snapped off and then jammed Upright into the dirt in a totally different spot. He said he could see that it had just been snapped off because it had no markings of being hit by a vehicle or pulled by a chain. We were all dumbfounded. I wanted to talk about it all the way home. I had a Billion questions, but they barely said anything. They were unusually quiet.
It wasn’t until I was a few years older that we talked about it and I said that I definitely saw something and wanted to know what they thought about Bigfoot? They lit up and said that’s exactly what they had talked with the policeman about, but that I was too young and they didn’t want me to have nightmares. They wanted me to think that what I saw in the red glow of our tail lights was my imagination instead of a Real Living Beast that almost got its hands on us. )
Since then, I have seen 3 other things that have Altered my perception of our “Reality”, that Every Single thing in my life has been shifted.
Your Intent will either allow you or prevent you from Seeing them.
Be prepared by keeping your perceptions open, be patient, because there’s a process of expansion. If you just Suddenly see EVERYTHING as it truly is all at once, your meat brain will break. Keep Growing!!!
It’s all both Terrifying and AMAZING!!
As a child in the back seat of the car, I was Terrified at what I had seen. However, as I got older, I felt differently. I feel that it didn’t want to Hurt “Me”, My Grandparents on the other hand, it would have gone through them to get to me. I can’t explain it, but I felt that it wanted to Save me. And I think I know why.
I don’t claim to understand ANY of the Unbelievable things I have seen, but I Know What I Saw and that it was Not from the World we are all familiar with. It hurts my brain thinking about the endless mind blowing Information we don’t even Know we Don’t Know yet. That’s why there’s a process. Each person’s process is unique to them.
These Entities seem to Know what We are thinking even before We do. So your Intent is EVERYTHING.
Be humble and the more you allow your frequency to Vibrate higher and higher, your eyes will allow you to see.
That’s why children seem to see more than adults. As adults our motives shift from drinking in in Awe and choking life down just to get by.
We lose our magic.
It’s sad.
And Soooooo Unnecessary.
The More you bring that One With Everything Vibration, the More your meat brain will comprehend.
Don’t get frustrated.
That ruins the connection.
And don’t worry if you can’t maintain that frequency on a regular basis. We can’t exist there All the time in our current physical state. We need discomfort to move and propel us forward through life.
All emotions and feelings are Valid.
Enjoy Discovery!!!
Your perception is a choice and perceptions are temporary. If you don’t feel comfortable in a space, either get out of that space or change the way you feel about being there.
The more you learn to control your human self, the more your spiritual self can shine through. Not Control to the point where you sacrifice parts of yourself!! But the Control over Your mind so it doesn’t control You.
Balance is Key to the Cohesion of Everything.
Signing this guy up to chaperone kids out in the woods armed with a loaded shotgun with the way he is dealing with whatever happened to him is beyond irresponsible.
From what it sounded like Greg hadn't shared his childhood encounter with his wife & kids. If she had, perhaps she would've come up with a different idea to allow her kids to enjoy the outdoors. I wonder if she knew he took the shot gun. Given the level of trauma Greg experienced & current reaction to that trauma, adding a bunch of kids, a shotgun on a campout is a bad combination with the potential for disaster.
Stop it.
Do you disagree with our assessment? @@costo34ify
I completely understand the man with PTSD from his childhood story. I wasn't a child when I saw one of the cloaked figures he was talking about and it left me very afraid and in 8 yrs I haven't gone back into the woods. I saw the full figure in the shape of a man and the worst part is that it was so close to my home, just a short walk. When you see something that shouldn't exist it makes you question everything. I've questioned my sanity and the reality of life and what else is out there that we can't see. How I saw it so clearly I don't know. It was a bright sunny day and I saw it looking at me from the tree line. It jumped like it was startled that I saw it and then fell to the ground and crawled back into the woods. I'm just so grateful that I wasn't on foot and drove my car to my neighbor's because I had a knee injury at the time. If I had to walk out of there I would have had to walk right past where it went back into the woods. It was bad enough just driving past it because my car window was broke and stuck all the way down, so I leaned as far over to the passenger seat driving past the woods there, but I couldn't speed because of the potholes in his unpaved driveaway. It only took me a few seconds to get home and I tried to tell my kid who was visiting at the time and she started laughing and I could hear just how crazy it sounded coming out of my mouth and that no one was going to believe me. I was done with the woods after that. I loved the woods and I felt at home there and now I don't even want to ever see trees and bushes again. It was totally traumatic to me. The second I saw it my heart sank into my stomach.
Hi! Thank you for sharing your story. If you don’t mind telling in zip code of a location where you saw this thing looking at you from the woods? And could you please describe its face/eyes and some other details?
Dang man, poor Greg. Seeing Bigfoot straight up melted his mind. That is the kind of story that seems the most real, to me. I have long thought that really seeing Bigfoot (especially an aggressive one) would have this kind of effect on more people. I wish Greg all the best.
The first gentleman from New york was Brian Gosselin. He has since passed away. I followed his research for many years and had a few chances to have dinner with him and pick his brain. we lost a great speaker and researcher when we lost him. R.I.P, my friend.
Season 4 ep5, I genuinely hope he get some counselling for the trauma he suffered as a child, he was very hard to listen to and you were so incredibly kind and patience with him, 😢
Bro if Greg's story isn't true he has to go straight to Hollywood as the world best actor for the last few decades. What a story man.....
Crystal meth is a hell of a drug
@mattheweagle223 Matt you took the words outta my mouth.
wow just WOW That really took guts to let it all come out about his encounter with ??? . I sure hope he got some kind of therapy from confronting the thing that causes his PTSD.
Praying for you brother in the mighty name of Jesus Amen
I worry about the middle guy because he's wound so tight. He should seek help with dealing with the trauma. He doesn't have to tell a therapist what exactly the trauma is in order to deal with it, he may have to go through a few therapists to get the right one but he really needs help. There's no shame in how he's reacting but it isn't healthy, for him or his family because you know the kids are aware of the symptoms if not the cause. Anyway, this is eating him up and he needs relief.
With all due love and respect, guest number 2, it’s time to go to therapy. You need it. It’ll help. You haven’t healed for more than 40 years and by now you should have at least found some sense of peace. And you certainly shouldn’t be feeling guilty about nothing you did wrong as a boy.
Go to therapy. You’ll heal. Godspeed my friend.
" therapy" does NOT help anyone.
" therapy" never does. I think Greg is correct to not trust these things. I think Greg is correct...these things are NOT your friends. EVER!!!
@@sissyrayself7508facts
This was so scary for him, I’m so grateful he was brave enough to share his story! Thankyou sir!
Holy! This guy. He’s gone through something . Some type. Bless him through his recovery.
Wes handled this guy Greg like a pro. Bro is fighting for his life with this memory.
Side note- I feel bad, but Greg said some unintentional hilarious things 😂.
To Greg, the story in Texas. Very brave of you to share your story. On another point in your story; you described my childhood bicycle, it was black and purple; it was called "starshot" it had an x-wing fighter from star wars shooting its lasers on the chain gaurd, it was a three speed with sissy bars and chrome fenders. Thanks for the memory!
as a kid in the 70s i rode my bike everywheres
When he said his friend had a white hanes tee shirt on i thought about Fonzie and that they probably wore them , like we did because of The Fonz. The 70s were the greatest time to be a kid
I was born in 74, so I have a lot of good 70's memories, but I imagine being a little older then was way better.
@@mechachrist71' here. Great time to come up
It came out like a car... priceless!!
Everyone describes Bigfoot as having a big butt. This is an important detail because a big butt is essential for walking upright. Other great apes have comparatively small butts compared to ours, for example.
Maybe you can have Greg back after he’s had some therapy and 20-30 mg of Valium. Poor guy.
My heart goes out to that guy..I've seen 3 things we are told do not exist..wasn't alone 2 of those times..I took it better the some of the others that were with me..everybody takes trauma different..its easy to say to yourself "I could handle it"..never bet on that
I wanna know your stories..🤔.. Honestly
I've had two experiences. Never saw but had something walk up behind me and one I heard scream. That same scream you hear for these videos online. Both in different parts of Texas.
@Donnellion In a short version in 1973 meca 2 friends had a UFO go by us about 60 yds in front of us about 50 yds off the ground going west to east at a speed even 50 yrs later I still can't wrap my head around..in about 1979 me my cousin and 4 friends were squirrel hunting in a woods that was owned by the grandpa of one of the guys with us..we all gathered at one spot and we're not hunting just BSing..I look over and about 30 ft from us is a black man..this was a open spot,he wasn't in deep weeds wasn't behind anything just in the open standing there..I asked who was he and he didn't move..we all got nervous and tried to get him to respond..he never moved at all,I noticed that he was dressed in maybe 1930s..40s clothing complete with a old style hat,he was crystal clear but he face was blurred..he never moved never spoke..this lasted for just a few minutes..our vehicles were parked behind us and at one point we all looked back at vehicles and when we looked back at him he was gone..there is no way he walked out of there..to our left,his right was a old barbed wire fence with thorn bushes and to our right was just open woods..what I said about some take that different then others? I went back in there a week later by myself,not because I got balls of steel but I was curious and at that time it was the only place I had to hunt,I didn't know till about 2 yrs ago after that day my cousin never went into a woods again..I've never stopped..and by the way when I went back a week later you better believe I stayed at the OTHER END of that woods..:)..as for the 3rd thing I've seen ill keep that to myself for now,let's just say there ARE things out there that will make you question everything we have been told do not exist
Why do you think it is that some people will see absolutely nothing there entire lives and others see multiple things like yourself? most
that do have incounters, don't just see things once,they see multiple times
I might guess that there are people who are more open to it or able to tap into an alternate state of conciousness. Possibly some people just have an extra sensory ability that these entities can sense therefore make themselves known? I'm just throwing out a couple theories of course.
Thats the best ,most convincing recount of what happened too any of these people yet. If he is lying, he fooled me , BUT I BELIEVE THIS GUY! Clear,concise and matter of fact!
It really hàppend
The guy around the 58: is imo crazier than a crap house rat lol.
"RAIN MAN" on steriods..."I'm a very good driver"...."Judge Wapner on at 4"....??? WTH..??
Can’t even understand the middle guys story because he’s crying so hard while telling it.
That's what struggling to get through something like this with full blown PTSD can often do to you... and, in front of an audience is just plain humiliating. Poor guy. I'm signing off at 100:17, after two attempts ( thank you Les Stroud for staying with him throughout his struggles ). And, i thank this guest for his bravery. It is important for people to understand how terrifying and life changing these encounters can be. But, I will come back and respectfully get through it with him. 😢. I feel so terribly sad for him. I feel creeped out every time I get near the gorgeous Jedediah Smith Redwoods for a similar reason. But, I don't have the level of PTSD that he does - only creeped out and like I could bawl, a lot. It is no picnic to encounter one of these creatures and not know if you might be ripped apart, eaten alive, or just ignored. Thankfully, we were ignored. And, after about 60 years, we can talk about it. Weird, and life changing. 😢
Yup, he was obviously on substance that rhyme with heth. Freaking ridiculous I couldn't listen and had to skip
Really? You guys are all so intelligent, and your listening skills top notch ...go back and check yourselves. The guy was 10 years old! No drugs involved back then.
LOL he meant the guys on meth during this interview @@lucreziablaye1659
I also think he has a chemical issue, methamphetamine
Man....I've heard some rattled people on this program over the years, but this bloke is in a league of his own. I hope he can eventually come to terms with his memories. Poor bugger.
Wes you are awesome at what you do all i will say
Always dug Chris Noel...,.his videos documenting his progress of trust or familiarity with the Sasquatch near his home area were very cool and entertaining. People should watch from the oldest ones when he was first trying to document their presence up to now writing the books and speaking.....Great journey indeed.....
Does he have a channel?
I lived above Lake George for 10 years. My ex and I operated a campground on Schroon River...155 acres. I've seen all kinds of animals and spore but never Sasquatch. I go back to the area every summer. I'd LOVE to see one.
Funny some folk see these cryptids multiple times, some only a few times or just once in a lifetime, & others never see a cryptid their whole life of going out in the rural or wilderness areas, the same with ufo's & e.t. aliens!!
Second guys story was unintentionally hilarious, no disrespect. I found his story very entertaining.
Yea. The only thing that really bothered me was the complete insertion of so many details that are completely irrelevant. He would get started and go back to more irrelevant details
@@jimsteinway695 Reminds me of Peter Caine and his zany big foot stories.😂
The transformers and sheriff paulides rant had me almost peeing my pants.
@@jimsteinway695A little too exaggerated IMO. If that was real PTSD then bless his soul.
Does anyone know what the story was in the middle?it was completely incoherent. He did say one thing that made sense, when he said “ I know I’m not making any sense”
He took 30 minutes to tell a 1 minute story.
Just listen
Ptsd makes it difficult to think straight. It just jumbles your thoughts. I know it did me something terrible.
Rick James famously said "cocaine is a helluva drug" I guess Rick never tried meth.
Yea that guy was geeked totally up
Last summer, very early morning i put my poodles out, I sat on a chair waiting for my dogs, and all of a sudden, I heard a very loud scream with different tones it sounded like a distressed call, i never believed in sasquatch, but right away, it came to my mind that it had to be be a sasquatch. I was amazed and felt very privileged to have heard this. Another tenant living there, registered some screams of what sounded like a baby mountain lion or bob cat, not at all what i had heard but later on I though that maybe it was a sasquatch immitating a baby predator. He sent me what he registered on my phone. It was coming from the same woods. What surprised me is how close it was from houses. There is a reservoir nearby.
How he kept from laughing when he said “he may give you a piggyback ride”
For years whenever I talked about what caused my ptsd I would shake. I don't do that anymore, thank you Lord.
Are there meetings around the country for people who have had experiences so that they can convene together with other believers/experiencers who are also traumatized or just need mutual support and a safe place to tell each other their stories? My goodness that would be awesome. I know they have conventions for speakers as David Paulides advertised. But they need to have a place online to convene and organize face to face meetings for experiencers to gather and spend time together. ❤
This could really help with the mental health part.
Good idea, this poor guy (the second man) oh, my God I feel so bad for him, man....
@@larrywakeman4371 I know. He is still so shaken up after DECADES that he couldn’t calm down to tell his story.
I want to give him a hug.
@@anonyvatedalexander5902It was really annoying to try to listen to and follow along. I feel bad for him, but he is just way too much of a mess to be trying to tell his story on a podcast.
squath anon
its called narcotics anonymous for the middle guy... hes tweakin
Yeassss! I was going through withdrawal 😂
Dude he was speaking another language 😂😂😂
Sasquatch are ancient human type interdimensional beings. They are the basically the missing link between Ape and humans. That's what I believe anyways. How they are crossing back and forth between dimensions I have no idea.
Look up Lloyd Pye. He shows the Hominoid connection.
I absolutely love the clarity and honesty within this officers story! What a down to earth and wholesome person! Thank you very much
".....like little Vienna sausages!" 🤣🤣🤣
What’s worse is realizing he was a child NOT an adult when this happened. How dreadful. His ptsd is so real I feel so bad for him. My son will be 10 in a few years I cannot imagine. He would be ruined for life. I’m sure of it.
The second guy:
"And we were eating ham, no turkey legs, and it was like Stephen King in the 70s, no the 50s, and my buddy had a heavy metal bike, a big bike, purple and it was half blue..."
He seems mentally ill. I think he has bigger problems than his "encounter."
More likely under
Influence of substance

I agree. He has absolutely no idea or control to get to the subject. So many completely irrelevant details
When you have a seriously scary event happen to you and experience ptsd the silly details you remember more then the actual event is common. Maybe because going over small details will help recover the traumatizing details.
@@jimsteinway695because he's lying. He does not get to the point is because he doesn't have one ..he didn't have an encounter
"All your shows are peoples, people I'm a hunter, I feel terrible. I grew up in the woods. It encompasses who I am. I love hunting. This is who I am and I love hunting. My kids have never seen the woods. My kids have never STUCK A PINKY TOE IN THE WOODS. Because they're all under my roof. Is that fair to them?" 🤪😳😱😡😭😰
OMG 🤣
I watched a lot of Bigfoot Sasquatch videos in this gentleman in the middle is actually the most believable yes he was only 10 years old I'll bet that left a horrible impact but we're so proud of you for coming forward and telling your story and I appreciate the warning can you set up just one person I can assure you you affected in a positive way a whole lot more than one person and yes who knows you might have saved some lives as well some people might have thought they was going to go out there like Yahoo and then thought maybe not thank you very much but I don't think you need to blame yourself for anything because you were a victim and there wouldn't have been anything that you could do to change what happened yeah the man probably took the opportunity that the Bigfoot ate the food you brought and he probably thought this is my chance to check out and he didn't want you guys coming back there anymore and seeing him because he didn't want you coming back there anymore either so he split and he was trying to protect you and did he threw the food to the Bigfoot to distract him from harming you I guarantee you that man was no fool that's why he was feeding it and moving the fire closer to the tent but when he knew he was going to burn his tent down I guess he figured it was time to leave the food you brought was a great distraction and I think it probably saved the man's life because he probably got out of there and he didn't want you guys coming to visit and he thought I can get another tent don't be ashamed or feel bad for telling the truth furthermore your kids probably won't play on their video games and their phones more than they want to go build a campfire anyhow you can find other fun stuff to do with them you don't have to go camping take care❤❤❤
I tell you that one guy from Texas is freaking nuts. He's literally unstable. I'm not even sure that it's because of the incident, but he just sounds dangerously unstable.
I feel terrible for Gregg and no doubt has ptsd however... holy shit what a wild storyteller. If Wes wasn't keeping him 9n the rails he would still be going today probably explaining how his grandparents pour their cereal and god knows what. Hat is off to him though, it was amazing to picture his words.
It's pretty neat when you actually know the area the guest is talking about.
I lived in Orwell VT. I used to go to church in Whitehall...(It's so far away why? -grandma and her doctrine) I know rt 4, I know the Big Apple, I know 22, I know 22A.... I have swam in lake George, spent many a summer swimming in Bomoseen, at Crystal Lake Park, and I ......never knew the real Sas stories. I heard a few of them and thought, "pffft, no way, this area, still too many people"... hunters, folks lore, police officers ... I mean Champ, CHAMP is a thing there and one lady said she saw two magical creatures, one pink and one blue kinda bullark.
this officer, I think I can believe, whatever "believe" means. Then again elk. I never saw nor heard and elk... but I saw the horns on walls.... lol, not in Orwell... not lest they were from someone like 100 years ago and they were in the library..... and were tiny. Oh, snap.... ok, to proove that I am not full of it, My grandparents' owned the property where the Masonic lodge used to be on and there as a news crap about hahahaha, get this, they lifted and moved the Masonic lodge after they died.... That asshatt politician threw my grandfather under the bus in that shit news video but ... at least after they bought the property, they fixed that right up all kinds of nice. Copper gutters now.... Glad to see that house restored.
AHEM, just verifying that, yeah, I know Whitehall, Fairhaven, Lake George, Ft Anne, yeah I remember that Stewart's in Ft Ann, the one by the flashing light where the gas pumps shut off at 11pm or whenever... because .... sometimes they didn't shut off.
Just uh Coyotes and foxes, and like 3 cats for me... Kinda glad.
Sorry for gasmng about hearing a story in an area that I know.
The first guy was a great witness, he just sounded truthful, like he was speaking from experience, not a story he made up
They say when you're traumatized as a child, you stop developing at whatever age it happened at. I believe Greg is definitely stuck in the mind of his 10 year old self. I hope he finds peace.
That one guy need mental help or leaves the meth along he makes no sense
Amazing man.
Being I live in Vermont makes it even more impressive.
I love nature and walked in many parts around VT seen these so called stick structures that are very weird, and why would someone spend all that time and energy to make one off these just to fool with people who most have no idea about this topic or existence of Bigfoot.
Some of them look impossible for man to make and tree's broken so high off but not due to wind or anything else as intelligent person who knows nature and had been in the Mountain Battalion Infantry unit knows structures made out of sticks.
Great episode.
Much thanks to the police officer who was on the show.
I feel his frustration and stand on all off this.
Greg is having flashbacks 😅...thanks for taking us there!
The middle dude you know he telling the truth. But I can't follow him he's so disturbed telling his story. Hope he is getting help, he most definitely needs it. He's traumatized
My heart goes out to him. He needs help to work through his deep-seated trauma. I pray he gets the help he needs so he can release the burden in his troubled soul. 🙏❤️
😮 🙄 he's a damn liar.
He sounds like he is describing a hallucination. It's his truth.
POOR second GUY HERE HAS PTSD . I GOT IT TOO WHEN I HAD ONE AROUND EVERY NIGHT FOR OVER 5 MONTHS.BUT WHEN THE MOTHER CAME SHE HELPED ME UNDERSTAND WHO THEY ARE.✨♥️✨
Would love to hear your story if you're willing to share
Wes great job on this chapter.. Good interviews
Greg is suffering obviously. My heart goes to him and pray for him to find peace about his encounter. Wes your a kind soul. I've always found your channel interesting while alarming! Take care.
I believe I’m one of those people who broke every am radio when I would touch it when I lived in Alaska. I burned out my friends data drive when I hit the light switch in the computer room (pop.)i never told the family I did that. I did see a space ship on the Maryland Pennsylvania border. Two other people confirmed seeing it also. I can’t wear any type of Apple Watch. I can feel the emf. I have crystal stone pads around my computer and iPhone to keep down the emf. My son and I have had activity on our property in Oregon and Washington. My son had the orbs experience at Elgin lake with hand touching through his tent. Heard lots of whoops on a lake near courdeAlane
I just can’t see all those police officers lying about seeing a Sasquatch. Why would they lie and hold themselves up to ridicule if it wasn’t true
I think Greg needs to see a doctor , it’s obvious he’s not well . I hope the content creators have a talk to him and get him to seek help . He sounds like he is suffering from schizophrenia .All the very best Greg , I hope you can find some peace
He's to manic to be watching kids camping with a shotgun. This was super hard to listen to I'm not gonna lie
I pray for the guy from Texas he's got a lot of PTSD. Some seriously happened to him you can hear it in your voice
Not too many people have had a 3.5- 4 minute encounter with a Bigfoot. It’s usually seconds. It probably felt like 3-4 minutes to him but more likely was just seconds. You could tell the thing your life story in 4 minutes. 😂
I grew up in northern British Columbia, 10 miles outside of a small town. I’ve spent hundreds of nights in small tent with my dog and a .22 rifle. We’ve walked miles following the hydro power lines. There’s nothing out there people, nothing weird anyway.
Just because YOU haven't seen it DOES NOT mean it's not out there.
I've spent a lot of time in the woods too, hunting, camping, hiking all hours of day and night, and I've never seen one either, but that doesn't prove they or other types of cryptids DON'T exist. As NANCE of buckeye bigfoot says, absence of proof is NOT proof of absence.
The middle guy reminds me of bill Paxton in the alien movie 😮😮
It’s game over man!
@@StarWarsJay 🤣
"Oh dear lord Jesus, this ain't happening man...this can't be happening man!...this ain't happening..."
As a teenager me and some friends would watch Aliens every day after school, waiting for, and howling at every line of Hudson's.
You can hear the pure emotional stress in his voice, but when some place is named "Devil, or Ape, or Ghost", there is usually a grain of truth atached to the legend or myth associated with those places.
Poor guy (the 2nd) TRAUMATIZED to say the least!!! I sure hope he can find some peace with this.
Maybe Greg is circling around some things because he DID see (or thinks) the bf eat him. Or something similar.
Would make sense why he circles certain subjects like he does. and passionately saying "ya gotta burn em".
Hes def traumatized. And i hope hes able to be ok.
But would make sense he saw something more terrible that just a sighting.
It's clear he met something akin to the Devil himself, that's why he said you gotta burn em. He called it an arsehole, might aswel just say Evil. 🔥
Interesting idea, it makes sense to me. Especially because of HOW traumatized he is.
LMFAOOOOOO Omg, this dude and his 1970's analogies and his freak out attacks reminds me of Bill Paxton's character Private Hudson "GAME OVER MAN! 😅😅😅 Simply hilarious 😅😅😅
Greg could be a comedian, im not laughing at him or his story, but the way he explains it 😂😂😂😂
I woke up to this video, and it freaked me out! Why? Because I had a dream about these so-called transformers. I saw what looked like a man walk up to a skid of material and bend over. His arms shot out, and went through the skid holes. Then he lifted it up, turned, and walked toward where i was hiding. As it walked, it transformed before my eyes into what looked like a machine robot about 20 feet tall. It was red and blue. Crazy scean! I never forgot it. Now I know it means something. Cheers
Great stuff love these stories.
Great show!!! Great episode!!!! ❤
And he has a bit of Torrets too poor guy. Good story though and 100% genuine i reckon.
Comedy Gold i tell ya! 😂😂😂
