British writer Doris Lessing (1919-2013) was awarded the 2007 Nobel Prize in Literature. Her novels include 'The Grass is Singing', 'The Golden Notebook', and five novels collectively known as 'Canopus in Argos'. [Listener: Christopher Sykes; date recorded: 2007].
TRANSCRIPT: Now, what interested me was the little people: who were these little people who leave their offspring in a human cradle? It is... are they... are they fairies, or gnomes? Are they dwarfs - who? Because again, these figures, these fairies and gnomes and dwarfs are in every culture - there are stories about them. Now, I thought for a very, very long time that they existed. Why should they not exist? We have people of all sizes - why should there not have been fairies and gnomes and dwarfs and so on, and so on?
Can I... can I remind you that in the Bible it says about - just thrown away, of course - that there were giants in those days. Well, maybe there were giants, we don't know that there weren't. We have occasionally come on... come on large skeletons, but is this what is meant? I don't know. But what they have recently come on - in Indonesia last year - they came on the skeletons of little people, that is, not human, but near human. Us, but small. Now, I thought, ah, there we go, you see. Now, needless to say, it... the academics, the scientists, are now arguing about it. They are saying, no, no, it's impossible, and the others say, no, it's not... it is possible, and here is the skeleton. And it's... it's in the papers, and it's a very interesting debate, this one. I think they're called the Flores... the Flores People... the Little Humans.
Now, a long time ago - does anybody here know the name Charles Fort... Forte [sic] the man who was always writing books about impossible events. What he would do - this is... we're going back to the 50s now - he would go through newspapers and any kind of magazine, and take out any improbable story and event and print it. It didn't matter what it was, it didn't matter whether it was true, possible, impossible, it was printed.
One of the stories he printed was of little people... little skeletons in the Alleghenies in America. And I thought, aha, there we are - he says it was years ago; I thought, there we are, it's there! And from time to time... and I believe in South Africa they've found little humans, and of course they debated were they really humans, were they...? I don't know what they were, but little skeletons. So there we are, you see - I start off with the idea that there were little people of some kind, we don't know what - they are in our folklore and our stories, but we don't know anything about them until we come on skeletons as the Flores People in Indonesia. And then we can say they were... they had brains as good as ours, apparently, these people, they were just as intelligent as we are, but they were smaller in scale. And there it rests at the moment.
Now, if you look at the world now, never mind about Charles Fort and 50 years ago in the Alleghenies or Indonesia... if you contrast the pygmies in Central Africa who might never get taller than three foot, three-and-a-half feet or four feet, with the people over on the East Coast who might easily be seven feet, seven-and-a-half feet, and where do you see them now? You see them in America as doormen in hotels, these enormously tall elegant men. Most men, as they come into the lobbies, they look up at these creatures - they are giants, according to our ideas, and they are... there they are over in the coast of East Africa; and you contrast them with the pygmies, and what do you have? We have giants and we have pygmies now. - Zábava
I was homless in Vermont and I built a cabin in the middle of the woods I heard a noise out side and say a little man running up the hill it had dark long hair and looked like a old man but was the size of a 3 year old it scared the shit out of me
Yes. I have seen one in the month of June of 1989, in Eliot Maine, not far from the river which divides the states of Maine and NH. Quite surprising, very enlightening, as to others which live here on the earth, mostly in invisibility. I would venture a guess that this man is not far removed from human, but also something else entirely. Fascinating really. He was quite emotional and did not realize that I was seeing him. This literally and figuratively opened my eyes. If you do not believe, that is your business. My experience is not a matter of my belief. I saw this man, just as clearly as I see the computer in front of me. He was solid when I saw him, and I hope he is well today, wherever he may be.
Hi, what do you mean he was in an emotional state? Would you describe the situation? I always want to know more about them
@@ropi8739 He was in an emotional state of frustration and largely anger, over the FOR SALE sign. I know, you must be asking yourself how he could read English. Naturally I cannot account for that. His entire body language made everything immediately obvious to me. Remember I was driving, albeit quite slowly. So, this encounter was not very lengthy. However, like TV, one can see what is going on without necessarily being able to hear it from a distance. I hope I have satisfactorily answered your question. I also am curious about these midway beings but have not had further encounters. However, things which happen in my life keep the borders of my mind pretty open. Have a wonderful summer.
When I was 7 years old in 1987 I lived in Nanukuli on Oahu. 1 night around 8-9pm my 2 older brothers and older sister was playing Uno while I was jumping on the bed in the bedroom when our attention was drawn to the window because the sound of footsteps and commotion. As we stared at the window a small face the size of a grapefruit or softball pressed it's face against the screen. it was a old man with brown skin like the native Hawaiians except a lot smaller! After staring at each other a few seconds, it started to laugh, which instantly made my sister scream and take off running out the room! We followed. Our Grandfather was native Hawaiian and told us about the Menehunne
I actually saw 2 of them and didn't tell anyone because I taught I was see stuff wasn't there...
But months later my 11 years old grandson came running from the back yard saying he said these two tiny people, when the saw him they quickly went into a hole in the ground...he described them and it was the same description....I believed him but no one else did.
Where?!
I hope you share your story with him.
Yes I believe you, when I was driving trucks state wide into other countries borders, I saw a lot of things 😳, often i saw round light orbs doing , all kinds of things, I drove nights like15 years I would park 15 years,
It was real. I believe you both. I've seen one peeking at me while going to the restroom
@@listenup9322 I don't think anyone's trying to convince anyone ot anything or cares what you believe or don't believe, they're just sharing stories.
To many people across the World have Seen these Little People, with that Much Smoke there has to be some Fire....
100% agree with you., a lot of folklore tales have an element of truth running through them., these little people in my opinion do exist., an amusing fact to make you smile.. my husband a 16 stone, builder/roofer has an irrational fear of 'little people' // 'borrower type people' 🙄🙄 He seriously cannot talk about 'them' or watch any type of film/programme with 'them' in it... (foolish man) 🤣😂🚶♂️🚶♀️
@@lorrainewadsworth9019 he had an experience with them before?
Yes, but they are almost all supernatural beings.
Fr a bunch of people I know have told me about these little people that live around here
@@lorrainewadsworth9019 It would show him love, respect and consideration to ask him with gunuine concern why he feels that way. Then beleive him instead of belittling him. You will most likely get some really suprising truthful answers.
The Cherokee Indians said there was little people in the south eastern U.S. that they called the Moon Eyed peoples. They were small dwarf size light haired light eyed people who only came out from their underground homes at night to fish, hunt and forage. They clashed with these people, but couldn't defeat them. The Moon Eyed people built a barrier wall around their lands to keep the Cherokee out. The Cherokee people says they may still be there, so they always kept the pact of not crossing into their walled lands. The barrier walls still exist yet they have succumbed to the elements and they all have fallen. Now there is just a large pile of stones surrounding their land now.
Other native american legends (including Osage) have these little people as potential starfaring beings that reside in some kind of alternate dimension here among us.
The origin of the little people originates from my tribe apache and Navajo, During the great raids between us skinwalkers are Navajos and apaches adopted these beings for protection from enemy tribes .Apaches scalping and cutting off body parts of my tribe. And the parents and medicine man took the kids and replaced there body parts bringing back there body alive the next day the body is gone then you know they decendede from earth
I have had experiences with these creatures as well, where i live in Scandinavia. I feel very lucky to have encountered them. These creatures are very real, but i think they are other-dimensional beings, that uses portals to and from our and their world. Almost like something paranormal.
I live on cape Breton Island Canada and we have many many little people. I saw one with my brother and he has saw them multiple times. They don't bother anyone. Might take stuff and braid animals hair but that's it.
What do they look like? Do they wear hats like Garden Gnomes?
On Sumatra in Indonesia this kind of little people like on the island of Flores, are still existing. The people there know a lot about them. Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹🥨🍺🏔🛶🐺EUROPE!
Sir,im from borneo/kalimantan, around indonesia,malaysia, philipines, new guinea,have this creature..
@@ancientborneotribe4403 I belive that really. Most of the people don`t know what`s really going on here on the earth. We know so much about the moon but few of the earth. In Austria we have so many ancient tunnels which are about 12.000 years old and nobody knows what for are they built. Scientists never found any old materials there inside. Many farmer which live in very old farmhouses discover from time to time another tunnel. It´s a very interesting topic too. If You are interested look on CZcams for "Dr. Heinrich Kusch (English): Secret Underground Installations and Tunnel systems in ancient Europe" What kind of cryptic creatures You have on Borneo? Many Greetings from Linz Austria!.
@@wolfganggugelweith8760 Thanks You Sir for reply my Comment, Some of the Cryptid animals that are in the western continent(amerika, europe)are also in my continent.
-Gajah Mina(elephant Sea God) (trunko) an animal that is always found by local fishermen with a body like a whale and a head, ears and trunk and tusks like an elephant. It's just different from the white version of the western continent, here it's colored like a real elephant but with a body of whale
- Borneo Nessie (Tambuakar)
-Red Haired Giant
not just cryptid stories and legends in my place borneo, the effects of war hundreds/thousand of years ago where native tribes fought with red-haired giants still leave traces with red stones, soil and trees and this area is considered sacred and avoided by the natives here from passing through and looking for natural products. The rocks, trees and soil as well as the area become red, it is said because the blood of thousands/tens of thousands of brave soldiers flowed from this battle and flooded this area. and there will still be remains of fragments of spear points and machetes,sabre if there is an effort to find them.
-Titannoboa Borneo (Nabau)
the size of a bus.
-prodectyel (Buro Atoo = Devil Bird)
-White Bus Size Crocodile (Bujang Senang)
- Other Ancient Animals that Science Says Are Extinct, Sauropod(polo ote) T-Rex(To ang)
- Woman of the Moon (Said to have come down to earth and married a native Man, giving knowledge of Nature to the natives and giving birth to the Legendary Warrior of My Tribe.)
- The Dog-Faced Tribe, who like to kidnap livestock, pets and women and children. There are also stories handed down from generation to generation by the natives of Kalimantan/Borneo, there are ancient inscriptions on bark, animal skins and carved on iron and copper that are preserved and used as a source of reference by my nation and tribe about the bloody war between the combination of the island's natives Kalimantan fight against this race that is said to be very ferocious, they like to do damage on the face of the earth and kill creatures other than their race to be used as food. The cave they live in is still there but has been covered by a large stone and burned by brave warriors from all tribes in Kalimantan. His skull became a trophy and evidence for the head hunter of my tribe a long time ago.. the interesting thing is, Before the war started, the Shamans of all the original Tribes here joined together, and performed the Sacred Ritual by asking for help from the Spirit of the Forest/protector of the forest where the protector of this forest had fulfill our request by sending help Hundreds of giants/creatures large, tall, very hairy and with faces like orang utans, these giants ended the war by lifting a large rock and throwing it at the cave door, while the natives threw fiery arrows before the cave door was closed (you can guess and predict who this tribe is meant to be) this is a very famous story among the indigenous people here that has been handed down from generation to generation.
@@wolfganggugelweith8760 In addition, thousands of years ago, before my ancestors set foot in Kalimantan (Borneo Island), they met a race that walked on two legs like modern humans, only with fur and a face like an orangutan, it is said that not only did they meet this creature , but it is said to have interacted with uran kenit (little people) after opening a settlement here. After getting permission from the forest protector (bigfoot we call him (mandou). My tribe (ibanese tribe) will put food and offerings at the edge of the forest every year after religious rituals ( aninism). until now if the indigenous children here are lost in the depths of the forest, after being found, the found victim will tell that the big orangutan will protect them at night from the cold and feed them fruits, and then will be sent back to the riverside area or village. once found, the parents of these children will put food (durian fruit, turtle eggs, fruits, vegetables and a little meat) in this child's area was found as a sign of gratitude to this creature. we here respect them very much and vice versa. This creature is shy but friendly to small children. When I was a child, I, my brother and cousin followed my grandfather (shaman, head hunter and tribal leader) to explore the depths of the forest, after being taught various knowledge and ways to survive, we stopped by the river, while we were taught how to find turtle eggs, I did see myself this creature was also looking for turtle eggs, I saw more than one person of this creature, where the woman had long breasts, breasts so long that when they looked down to look for eggs, their breasts were hung on their shoulders, I saw a family that felt like consisting of grandfather, father, two adult women (mother and grandmother) and four small individuals. The old one has white fur on his chest. My grandfather placed a turtle egg on a leaf and saluted this family, and we traveled home. My brother and I had time to look behind , this creature raise a hands to the grandfather as a sign of thanks. For the natives here, we consider them to be an ancient race that inhabited Borneo before my ancestors set foot in Borneo. We do not consider them animals because these creatures also have their own life structure and language..
*forgive me if my English is not fluent. Sorry again.
@@ancientborneotribe4403 Thank You very much for Your very interesting stories! Greeting from Linz Austria Europe!
There are many in my garden, they mostly watch me when I'm out there. I have left my garden a bit wild, for them.. yes they do leave me gifts. One I actually wear around my neck. Which does protect me.. I don't get negativity from them I get wildness and an untamed feeling. You don't know what they are going to do. Sometimes they just smile at me, not in a michevious way.. just a smile. I respect them.. and in the evening I give them my garden.. and if I do go in there at that time I ask permission.. mostly they say yes, but there are times I've not been allowed. During the day it's mine. Sometimes they get in the house and torment my cats. But never get caught lol.. do many different varieties.. I t would take ages to put them all here.
Jayne Robinson im native american and my dad says theres little people in the woods on our reservation. he said old people told him and he said NEVER go back there in the night time
i wish i seen them! EXPLAIN MORE
@@cs6339 agree, they are in my garden.. and I don't go in THERE at night. If I have to I ask permission.. sometimes I get a feeling that I'm allowed. But to be quick with what I have to do.. and sometimes I can feel them from the house and I wouldn't even think about asking. I leave them to it.. we kind of made a deal where the garden is mine in the daytime.
@@cs6339 well, there are several types. Sone very small.. I have seen one that was about 2ft. But mostly small varieties..sometimes when they get in the house they take stuff.. and I'll find it in the garden.. or I'll find garden things in the house lol
@@cs6339 they have protected me.. and I wear a stone around my neck that they gave me.. and must not take it off.. since them ..I have definately felt safer... I have seen them since I was a child.. even when I was small I would be found running around the woods barefoot.. telling everyone about fairies..lol
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. I love this!
Charming lady who is still curious!
Near Kunming in China there is a whole city of little people ,they call it "The kingdom of the little people" ,there is even a VICE documentary about them that goes by the name " Kingdom of the Little People"a.
Shout out to Charles Fort! She knows her stuff if she's dropping that name.
Wow it's like listening to my mother on the phone 10 mins ago nearly verbatim
I see them in the trees! There are so many different kinds! Super tiny, doll size, fairies, and other ones that don't appear so nice. I discovered them this past summer and have been watching them. They don't like to be watched or seen for that matter, it's hard to get a good pic or video, because once I watch the video or view the picture, they somehow camouflage themselves when I go to watch or view it again after the pic has already been taken! I don't understand how they do this! Also, there's some nefarious beings that are capturing them, rounding them up, and sucking out their souls! I've witnessed this several times. It took awhile to figure out what was going on, but you can see their souls being sucked out and usually eaten or stored for others delight! Then they put their remains into this web like tube thing that flows across the sky, usually to the moon at night! This is crazy and no one believes me! I don't care about that so much, I just want to know why they are after them, this is a daily thing! If you want to know more details, just hit me, I have more information about this. Thank you for sharing!
Dana Lurtz I’d really like more info on this. I’d like to believe it. But I’d like to get some proof. I believe there are things in the woods that have been here way longer than us. I know American Indians talk ALOT about little people and these fairies. But please give me more info or some proof please.
@@jaxxryan1374 I'm trying to get a good video, I have a lot of video to review, a lot of them change after I watch it, they literally morph and camouflage themselves, it's the strangest thing. As soon as I do get a clear enough video, I will post it. If you don't believe it, you won't see them. The mind is so powerful, it controls what you perceive to be your reality by your own belief system. Also, the veil is thinning, allowing us to see other dimensions and other beings. Just take your phone or camera outside and start taking some pics. You'll be surprised as to what shows up in those photos! You might not see them with your naked eye at first, but the camera doesn't lie. I suggest just going for a walk and zoom your camera lens into the trees and take some short videos and some pics. Watch for trees where the leaves are moving, you might think it's the wind or a squirrel up there, that's where you will find them. Also, look for what some refer to as heat waves, if you see this, you're on to something take photos where you see them. If you just gaze into the air, not focusing on anything, you can see energy, (like darts or streaks, even strobe light like flashes) popping around all around us. You may even get a ringing tone or buzzing sound in your ear, sometimes you can hear voices of people having a conversation and no ones there, it's so weird! Good luck and let me know what you find!
I seen them too, and the trees I knew there was something about the trees
Red bubble?
Are u in California? I have a place in long beach where I can be certain to find them
I would like to know more of the little people.
There is a saying that these little people image can't be capture in videos or camera...and always came invisible in sunlight. I'm confused...
They said that they can hear and know our talking and thoughts and feelings within 2 kilometres, away from them. They loves all kinds of liquors and all those fermented things and can eat like 5 chickens in one go...
There height vary but not much, about 1 feet 18 inch -
Most species have several different kinds living at the same time except humans. Why don’t we have have different species of humans living in the same time period?
Remarkable.
Like bees; if you aren't a threat, feel not afraid.
It could be possible because one who knows how to read can to tell the difference fables just by looking at how it is written.
They are still here.
Giants and little people do exist!!! I found a little persons head with all facial features!!! I'm nobody but I have a video of it on my yt page.
Where
If you look in utube and ask about a tiny shoe about three inches long which has been mended you will find the photograph. The little shoe is handmade.
Were do you think they got the idea to make the film the borrowers and the TV series of the little people that living under the floorboards in the house and they cone out at night and borrow your things lol
Demons
@@paulredinger5830 Have you read the Bible? It explains everything we need to know about them. Little people aren't demons. They are flesh and blood like us.
I won't say where I live because I swore to the locals to keep this amazing secret. Real
You saw demons.
@@paulredinger5830 Demons are invisable wicked spirits with an evil agenda. They can't be filmed or seen unless they make themselves visable on purpose. Not everything unknown is demonic. Many times a newly discovered animal was thought to be a demon by local people. Or some phenomenon was explained scientifically that was previously linked to demons.
I just moved from a development in Sanford Florida where I experience the most horrific things you possibly can
I have footage and lots of it
Please do go on
@@alrrenoir547
Started with my son having couple incredible scary friends that took advantage of our kindness,, the were bullying my kid, something serious
Large home,, they were living in the attics!
2 yrs this hell went on ,, gang stalking
I had to install cameras around my home
I could constantly hear kids talking
I stared recording out windows
Leaving my phone propped up
Door bell camera ,,
When I was look with my eyes and footage
I started noticing these tribal masks carving
In my palm treees
Beautiful beautiful exotic
next day you would see the remnants of something being there
All the trees front n back
Out the top floor windows looking out
I was level and close to where I noticed movement but I couldn’t tell where it was coming in from
I recorded it several several several times
Freaking out completely in every video
Shaking so bad I couldn’t hold my devises
The most covert ,camouflage ,tiny , skinny
U wouldn’t notice if I pointed right at him
Until he moves
Looks of his face ,,tribal, Native American
Also I video the trees move only 1 palm towards me
So I couldn’t see directly
I moved to another window , mind blown talking to the camera
Zero wind but the tree would flutter like there was
6 palms 1 is moving on its own
6 devices 4,000 video,,
I moved one yr ago
I just found out little people do in fact exist
Only one person knows,, my sister
My family had me backer acted
The police came 6 times to my home
I’ve never call them
I knew who these kids were
My son was the middle man
Cornered doesn’t come close to how I had to sit and eat it,, no support from anyone didn’t know anyone
I had to record every minute of the day
I caught it all on film
I recorded none stop simply because no one believed me ( kids)
I caught other stuff happening
So much to say no one to tell
They are back in the 21st century - young people everywhere
smoking DMT can tell you they have seen em'.
I once saw an elderly man eat his own head with a spoon, while smoking DMT. Pretty certain it wasn't real though.
@@joeschmoe8320 Exactly. I'm sure you haven't been hanging with the Egyptian pantheon while on your lunch break, or washing dishes.
Could the tales of "little people" be the memories passed down of ancient hominids like Florensis and groups like "Negritos" in Asia and Pacific and Pygmy like groups that may have existed in parts of Europe?
loll there is still some small people in Affrica, the other tribe call them pigmy's ,, some where hunting them as food or because of superstition...... they have all the quality of the small peoples, they are just not the moon eye peoples.

There is so much wacky peoples on the comment pages, it make my brain bleed internally just to read the comment....

My daughter was 6 years old when one night she asked me after she had gone to bed if the little fairy would come to see her and keep her from being scared at night and I said if you believe, she will come and going along with her I said I heard when I was little they would all ways leave something, so the next morning she was very excited she took me to her room and there by her nightstand were two beautiful pair of wings, silver with what looked like gold threads through them, I couldn't believe what I was seeing, so I continued on and told she will return tonight after your asleep and pick them up. So I carefully wrapped them up and left them on the nightstand and told her not to bother them and she agreed. The next morning I carefully unwrapped the napkin and they were gone. Let me tell you it was a shock, I was not expecting that, I didn't really believe , but I do now.
