    I will watch anything Eli directs. He has grown into a tremendous talent. You can tell how much work he’s put into his craft, and it shows with every episode.

    After watching this video, I want to visit that area and go to that guys museum. Help support him. He seems like such a great person. It’s people like him is what keeps our history going, and will let the next generation know all about it. I have four young kids. I would just like to go there and you know spend $100 buying stuff. That would be so cool even to just park the car and then walk the rest of the way. That would make the experience so much better.

    I lived in Washington when St. Helen's erupted. I was in Mt. Vernon, in an upstairs apartment, and it felt like someone was moving heavy furniture downstairs. Rumbled for just a few seconds. Hard to believe it's been more than 40 years ago.

      That’s crazy. I can’t even imagine living there when that erupted. I wasn’t alive at the time but still I’m just saying. That must have been a horrific experience.

      @@youtubeconnollyfamily, well I was too far to the north to get more than ash on the cars (and everything else). But it was horrific for everyone in the vicinity of the mountain. I believe I was 17 yo at the time.

    Being in my mid seventies, from NJ, I went to college in Walla Walla Community College. My roommate being from the Spokane area of Washington we'd head out on weekends to enjoy the many different types of terrains the state offers, desert, rolling hills, mountains, rivers, coastal & lakes. One of my favorite fishing spots was Spirit Lake near Mt. St. Helen, which was the first time I ever heard about Sasquatch/Big Foot thru one of the local Native Americans who was working at an area gas station. This introduction had really gotten my attention, ever since those days I started my own personal interests & investgations, then I seen the Paterson Films, it was a rap, I became a total believer! They find new species & thought extinct ones lots of times....👍🤠

    People, if you have the means to help this man and his museum by sending a donation please do so. I would absolutely love to, but I have $34 in my checking account and no savings. I'm obviously not in the position to help him, but I know most people are doing a little bit better than I am so if you have it in your power to help... Places like this are falling victim to progress and technology on the daily. We're not going to have places like this much longer if we don't do something to help!!

    @franktuckwell196 Před 8 dny +3

    I was so pleased when you said the comments about talking to your locals and you would say, "Oh i saw a Bigfoot the other day" and they are more likely to say, "Oh, what colour was it? Or how big was it?". As opposed to giving ridicule, because you (like your forebears) have grown up with them and interacted on an almost daily basis, in contrast to the so called "Men in Black" mob, who turn up and tell you "It was a bear!", something which you know to be false. Why are they (the powers that be), so paranoid about admitting their existance? I mean, we all are aware that there are animals out there which can kill us, but we are not worried about being attacked by bears, wolves, moose, puma/ cougar, sharks if you go in the sea, but it doesn't stop you hiking, hunting, fishing etc.? Great show.

    Wow 😳 now that is an awesome thermal picture and when he was comparing the two it does look the same but a little different. That thermal imaging machine he made I think that he's on to something because that didn't look like no person to me I didn't see no clothes like you could on the people that were targeted. Will this also be a series? If so I'm giving it a five star ⭐ just because he has made a thermal imaging machine that really picks up a person or a bipedal creature on two legs, and I will fully enjoy watching him in action and maybe will get to see it when he finds another one. Thank you Eli for this awesome video

    I watch because I need background "noise" (and I'm sure that's the lion's share of the views), but guys, sheesh add some excitement, this is a visual medium...perhaps two cameras for the talking head portions and intersperse it with visuals...like this was made by a C- student at some low tier college. Could be sooo much better.

    This is a good documentary, but I don't know what to think of all the Bigfoot videos out there. Everyone claims to have a pic, or a video, or a selfie................some have actually seen it but most can't give a REALLY accurate description..........you know what I mean? And some of the pics and videos are terrifying, some are stupid, some are comical, some look real but many of these have been solved dupe videos.........so I really haven't formed any conclusions myself. What's going to happen is one of these days someone (or someones) will take a real video of the damn thing, someone probably already has, post it, and all of us would be thinking............"well crap, another Bigfoot video! I wonder what someone has cooked up on this one?"

    100% agree with her. The best thing we can do is leave this topic alone.

    Why is it only believers can see Bigfoot...maybe that's why I've never seen Bigfoot.

    Bigfoot is probably Cain, the man who was forced to walk the earth forever.😮😅
