Bigfoot Steps out of Lake?

This report by TCC's Jimmy Craze. Jimmy is an avid outdoors man who enjoys fishing and bigfooting. He conducts field research and witness interviews for The Crypto Crew.



This report comes from Georgia and it happened about a month ago. It was at  a lake in Temple, Ga.

While Jimmy was out fishing in his boat one night he seen some bright eye shine next to a house but it appeared to be in the lake.
Upon investigating the area he took the above photo of a very large wet footprint on the edge of the bank of the lake.

In the above photo Jimmy is standing with his heels are on a big tree root that runs across the edge of the bank and from that root towards the lake, it drops down to the water about 1-1/2 to 2 ft.

After doing more investigating and returning in the daylight the next day, Jimmy took this photo for an after picture.

 In the after photo you can see the root running along the bank. I have placed an arrow to show the direction the foot track was going.
And right next to this was a 6 ft fence with knee to waist high weeds and against the fence it was trampled down were something has been walking there quite often.

So, could it have been a Bigfoot in the lake? It is very possible it could have been. It is also highly doubtful that a person would have been wadding around the lake at night. Plus if you think about the eye shine, a person would not give off eye shine.

Has anyone else seen a bigfoot in a lake or stream? If so please let us know.

Of course, we can not say for 100 percent that it was a Bigfoot, but it is very possible.

Jimmy is continuing to investigate the area for other evidence that Bigfoot is visiting this lake.

We hope to have an update at a later time.

Thanks

Paranormal researcher Chris Bores during an investigation

This post by Thomas Marcum, Thomas is the founder/leader of the cryptozoology and paranormal research organization known as The Crypto Crew. Over 20 years experience with research and investigation of unexplained activity, working with video and websites. A trained wild land firefighter and a published photographer, and poet.


I recently reviewed the paranormal documentary film Pursuit of the Paranormal, my review can be found Here, but I also had a chance to interview the director and creator of the film, Chris Bores.
Here is our 16th interview in the ongoing series, I hope you enjoy it.


 - Start Interview -  

TM:  How long have you been researching/studying the paranormal?

CB: I have been investigating the paranormal since 2006 when all the ghost hunting show began exploding onto our TV sets. It took me a few years to really figure out the path I wanted to take in this field but in 2012, I was really able to able to figure out a skill set that helped me get some pretty amazing conversations going with spirits

TM: What got you interested in ghosts, Was there a particular event that got you started?

CB: Like many, I got caught up in the ghost hunting craze when Ghost Hunters on Syfy became popular. I didn’t realize it was an actual pastime with a specific methodology until then.

TM: During your research/studying of the paranormal, have you ever encountered aggressive behavior or felt in danger from a spirit?

CB: Oh yes. I have been attacked on one occasion and had to leave the room and tell the spirit enough, I am leaving. Thankfully it backed down after I said that. On other occasions I’ve had to bless an area from a negative being.

TM: It seems Skeptics are always doubting the paranormal field, and make claims of evidence being faked, How do you deal with it?

CB: I’ve encountered naysayers countless times over the past couple of years. Ghost Hunting is very polarizing. Until you have that experience, you are not going to believe in it.

TM: What do you feel is your best evidence of the paranormal?

CB: I’ve got my share of cool EVP’s just like everyone else. Anyone can do it so I wanted to steer away from really highlighting that part of my research. The main reason I wanted to come up with a communication skill set that breaks the mold in this field is because everyone can go out and capture EVP’s.

My favorite evidence is getting interactions that last for an hour or longer. Not many people can do the type of work that keeps spirits entertained long enough to pull actual information from them. But recently I was at a location talking to this spirit who many referred to as Caroline. Once I got her comfortable enough with my presence, I asked her if that was her name and she said it wasn’t. This is done through a K2 device I use. Not sure what her name really is though. Sadly I didn’t have a device that worked well enough that night to tell me that. 

TM: Do you have a favorite place you would like to investigate?

CB: I’d love to hit up places like the Winchester Mansion or Stanley Hotel. I’d love to see if I could get a conversation started with the spirits that lurk there.

TM: Do you have a place you would like to investigate but haven't got to, yet?

CB: Same as above. Ghost Hunting doesn’t pay a dime so it’s a challenge to travel around to all these places that harbor all the great activity hunters are looking for. Easter State Penn is another place that’s high on my list.

TM: What would you be doing if you wasn't researching/studying the paranormal?

CB: I am constantly working on videos and working with clients in the area to pay the bills. I would probably be doing more of that.


TM: Thanks for doing the interview, keep us posted on your work.

 Here is some pictures of some investigation work.

Bigfoot - More human than human?

This Post By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher. Dorraine is a Professional Writer, a nature, wildlife and Bigfoot enthusiast who has written for many magazines. Dorraine conducts research, special interviews and more for The Crypto Crew. Get Dorraine's book The Book Of Blackthorne!







So now, many researchers are now referring to sasquatches as people. And that’s fine for the researchers doing it. There’s nothing wrong with it at all in that respect. It keeps them thinking and more focused on the cause. But I’m trying to decide if this is always good for the research itself.

What kind of roadblocks could we encounter while we’re trying to learn more about them while, at the same time, thinking of them as humans?

Let me explain what I mean.

Bigfoot, as we still like to affectionately call them, or Sasquatches, Sasquatch people, etc. are still quite a great mystery for us. There is so much left to learn; so much work left to do. So our minds need to be wide open at all times to whatever discoveries lay ahead. And we have to be able to really see the evidence in front of us when we find it, without bias or other influences interfering.

Anthropomorphism is the tendency for humans to assign human features and qualities to other living things. This is prevalent in children’s stories where animals talk and act like humans.

But the point was never made better than when Danny Vendramini, a film director, challenged conventional science and National Geographic’s portrayal of what Neanderthals may have looked like. They often depict Neanderthals looking not so different from us. Even attractive in a way we understand attractiveness in ourselves. Vendramini did his homework and came up with a different theory that opened up a new door in research. He pointed out that, with the real evidence at hand, there is no reason whatsoever to believe that Neanderthals had light, mostly hairless skin or small, human-like eyes. He surmised there is no reason to believe Neanderthals looked like us at all. It’s really only been a guess made my science, prototyped by anthropomorphism.

So, what am I getting at?

Even though it’s believed that sasquatches are a type of human, we need to be very careful about assigning human qualities to them before we know what qualities they really have.

Just because they’re extremely intelligent doesn’t mean their intelligence is or needs to be exactly like ours. All animals that have adapted to their environment are intelligent in the way that is important for their own survival. Intelligence takes on different meanings with different living things.

We humans have a tendency to think we’re smarter than other creatures because we’ve evolved the way we have. But the jury’s still out on whether we can really say that’s true, given the state of our world.

A point was made recently in a discussion group that sasquatches might possibly use tools. And since we’ve never witnessed this, we can only assume that it’s very possible that they do. Though we’re not sure they have opposable thumbs. But the idea that they need opposable thumbs in order to use tools is a type of anthropomorphism. We shouldn’t assume that if they don’t have opposable thumbs, they can’t possibly use tools. It could mean they use tools in a completely different way than we’d expect; one that doesn’t require opposable thumbs.

Seeing them as humans that may share our attributes is okay. But learning more about them can be brought to a screeching halt and we can be set completely onto the wrong course if we make assumptions about them having all human qualities, doing human things, and thinking human thoughts in the exact same way we do. This is a different creature that lives in a totally different environment than us, and has had to adapt a very different skill set. There is every reason to believe they are very different beings than us…entirely.

So the only danger in seeing them as humans is that it clouds our judgment of evidence and puts up roadblocks to the truth about their behavior. And it’s so important for us to see the truth.

And what does being human really mean anyway? What’s so great about us that we should want them to be like us? We could all argue that point forever, but by my standards for humans, they may be more like the humans we SHOULD have always been. *******DF

Possible Bigfoot Sounds from Maine

This post/report from TCC Team Member Jason Morse.  Jason is a lifelong outdoor enthusiast, trained in wilderness survival tactics, a 26 year martial artist, DJ, EMT and amateur writer. Jason conducts bigfoot field research, witness interviews and more for The Crypto Crew.


  Report from Eric Perry
Taken by Jason Morse

I was contacted recently by Eric Perry, Founder of CNHPS (Central New Hampshire Paranormal Society), with a very interesting account. He was camping a short time ago on the border of Maine and New Hampshire while doing a paranormal investigation.

The location was Parsonsfield, Maine. While investigating a report of a haunting, they went outside to go from one building to another, when Eric and his associate heard a noise that, as Eric put it, “Made the hair on your neck stand up and stopped us dead in our tracks.” He went on to say that the noise started off at a low pitch, then progressively grew into a high-pitched scream, all in a couple seconds. Now, this may sound like the run-of-the-mill “I heard something go bump in the night”, HOWEVER, recall the report taken a mere couple weeks ago, from Conway, NH? The vocalizations that were heard was approximately 70 miles to the report of a gentleman watching one get up from a crouch and walk away with a limp. The fact that there was 2 reports so fairly close together, one of which told to me by someone I have the utmost respect for, in such a short time frame really gets my excitement going.



I expect there to be more from this area in the near future. Stand by and see for yourselves!!

I just got a report in late last night of a possible Thunderbird sighting in Van Buren County, MI
This is a pretty recent sighting. Here is the report.


- Start Report -

Name: Matt
Email Address: withheld
State: Michigan
County: Van Buren
Date of Sighting: 6/14/14  
Time of Day: 12:00 PM
Nearest Town: Breedsville, Michigan
Length of Sighting: 1 Minute
How many Witnesses: 3
Any Photos/Videos: No
Describe sighting in detail:
We were working on the lawn on Jeptha Lake in Grand Junction, Michigan Van Buren County SW Michigan) when the high noon sun became obscured by a very large bird. I was looking at the ground when the huge outline of a giant bird covered the ground I was looking at.

I looked up and about 300-500 feet up (too high to notice any features except it being all black and 10-16 foot wingspan, I'm guessing around 12-14 feet specifically) was a giant "hawk-like" bird. It was circling the lake and was checking out there area.

It is a very high populated deer area, so maybe looking for deer?

I alerted my gf and brother who were with me and we all watch as it continued its circle until we lost it behind a giant tree. We waited to see if it would circle around but it must have continued the opposite way.

We watched it for around a full minute.

It's tough to estimate size as it was so far up, but there is no way it was smaller than a 10 foot wingspan, which makes it too large to be any known species in the area. The DNR suggested a Turkey Vulture of Bald Eagle (if definitely was not a Bald Eagle).

If it was a turkey vulture, it was larger than the largest known size by a matter of a couple feet.

I have been since then been watching hawks and other large birds carefully. Ive sized up 4 foot wingspan
hawks and seen what they look like even a hundred feet in the air. No comparison, and they are 200+ feet lower than the bird I saw.

From what I have read, it may be a Thunderbird, or some giant hawk. Anyone have any ideas what I saw?



- End Report -

This sure sounds like a Thunderbird  when compared to what has been described by other witnesses.
If anyone from that are also seen this large bird, please contact us.
A thanks goes to Matt for submitting the report.

Thanks

Over 20 years experience with research and investigation of unexplained activity, working with video and websites. A trained wild land firefighter and a published photographer, and poet.




I thought it would be good to expand our interview series and include ghost hunters and those that research the spirit world. So, I hit up my longtime facebook buddy Kevin Vaughn and he agreed to the interview. Kevin is the Co-founder and Lead Investigator of Scioto County Paranormal. SCP investigates paranormal activity around Scioto County, OH and the Tri-state area. They run SCP as a non profit/volunteer organization. Their investigations are free and done professionally and discretely.

- Start Interview -


TM:  How long have you been researching/studying the paranormal?

KV:  I started watching horror movies at the ripe old age of 5, watching chiller theater on TV. As I got older I started watching shows like in search of, unexplained mysteries. sightings. But I would say doing research, maybe I was 10, reading the books about UFOs, ghost, and Bigfoot. Just whatever I could find, I've been interested ever since. So, that was about 30 years ago.

TM: What got you interested in ghost, Was there a particular event that got you started?

KV: While growing up I heard all the local ghost stories and legends, I wanted to know more and see what I could find out for myself.
I lived in a house were a man was killed and his house keeper was tied up. He was shot one morning through his front door and died. At certain times of the year you could hear gun shots, his house keeper screaming, the loud thud of something hitting the floor and on occasion you could see a black shadow cross the upstairs grate in the floor to the attic door. We later learned he kept his money hid in the attic.

TM: During your research/studying of the paranormal, have you ever encountered aggressive behavior or felt in danger from a spirit?

KV: Not anything aggressive yet, there was my hair stroked and another team mate felt someone grab his leg walking down some stairs at a clients house.

TM: It seems Skeptics are always doubting the paranormal field, and make claims of evidence being faked, How do you deal with it?

KV: I try not to push my beliefs on other people. If they wanna believe fine but I'm not gonna force them. Most people don't believe until something happens to them.

TM: What do you feel is your best evidence of the paranormal?

KV: We haven't really caught anything I would consider to be good evidence, a few personal experiences but nothing to back up the accounts. (9 out of 10 times you catch nothing, its not like on TV were they catch something every time they go some place. That just doesn't happen.)

TM: Do you have a favorite place you like to investigate?

KV:  I have none that really stand out. I'd like to investigate any and every where we can. You never know, just because one place has nothing, across the street might be loaded with activity. So none I'm not particular, just any and every where.

TM: Do you have a place you would like to investigate but haven't got to, yet?

KV: Bobby Mackey's in Wilder Ky,  heard its got a lot of activity, has a warning sign telling customers its haunted. A lot of places really, but most are very expensive, and theres no such thing as a money back guarantee you'll catch something. Ghost don't respond every time you want them too, if they do maybe its faked.

TM: What would you be doing if you wasn't researching/studying the paranormal?

KV: Its hard to say, but nothing as exciting or interesting as the paranormal I'm sure. Maybe try writing a book on local legends and stories.

Thanks for the interview Big K! Good Luck on finding ghost.

This concludes our 15 interview in the series. I have enjoyed doing them and find the various answers intriguing. I hope to bring you more interviews in the near future. Again, a big thanks to Kevin for doing the interview. We all wish him and SCP the best of luck in their search for the truth.

Thanks

DVD Review

Some of you may recognize the name of the director of  Pursuit of the Paranormal, Chis Bores, from his very popular youtube channel - Irategamer, where he rates and does various skits mostly revolving around video games. But Chris also has a passion for paranormal investigations and it will become more evident once you watch Pursuit of the Paranormal.

So last night I finally got some free time to watch Pursuit of the Paranormal, not really knowing what to expect, I can say I was surprised with the quality of the film. As an independent film creator myself, I know how hard it is to produce a high production film and the cost associated with high quality cameras. Sometimes you just have to work with what you have and do the best you can and in this case the quality of the film is very good.

As the show is coming on we learn that it is hosted by Chris Bores and Alan Cicco. They are investigating a very familiar place, the St. Augustine Lighthouse, which is known for paranormal activity. I instantly remembered the Lighthouse from a past episode of Ghost Hunters, the previous evidence collected by Ghost Hunters was tied in very well during the first of Pursuit of the Paranormal .

So at this point my interest in the film is peeked and I'm ready for the investigation to start.

Pursuit of the Paranormal, has a really good Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures type of feel to it. A good bit of back ground is given about the lighthouse before the investigation start. Of course, with the Lighthouse being a historical hotspot for paranormal activity, the investigators are not disappointed. There is a lot of activity, but I'm assuming some of the odd banging could have been due to the temperature changes of a sunny day to a cooler night, resulting in popping and cracking of the structure. But, this is not all that happens, the team are also using various cameras and K2 meters. The K2 meters received a lot of the activity and this is where the most interesting part of the film takes place.

What was really interesting was that during the numerous K2 sessions it seemed the spirits would not or could not answer certain questions about the afterlife. Is there a particular reason for this?  The team probes deeper and tries to find the answers. I know some of the questions the investigators ask are the ones I would have ask.

While this film may not be for everyone, it does have high production values and the host/investigators do a good job. There is various evidence presented and it was entertaining. If you are a fan of or like shows like Ghost Hunters and Ghost Adventures, then you should find Pursuit of the Paranormal to your liking.

The only real draw backs for me were the lack of debunking attempts and lack of more gadgets, I would have liked to see more equipment used in attempts to contact the spirits. But, I can somewhat see the lack of more gadgets, as I know some of that stuff is expensive.

While there may be nothing earth shattering in the film, the line of questioning during the K2 sessions makes the film a very worthwhile watch in my opinion. This is a very good effort in the crowded market place of paranormal research. 

To purchase the film just go to Pursuit of the Paranormal.com
 

 Rating: 3 out of 5

How can we advance Bigfoot Research?

  Bigfoot Investigations
The One Huge Way We Can Advance The Research?
By Dorraine Fisher
    Bigfoot research sometimes seems to come to a stalemate.  We learn a lot, and then one day, it all stops for a while. How can we keep the momentum going and keep learning more and more? The answer is simple…and yet complicated at the same time. It involves the inner workings of the human mind.  Yes, that’s right.  Our brains are the problem.  But the good news is they don’t have to be.

   Advances in neuroscience have moved leaps and bounds in the last ten years. Scientists are really beginning to unlock the secrets of the brain that have eluded us for so long. But the more we learn, the more it becomes apparent how flawed our brains really are. Or are they?

The great thing about the human brain is if it knows the problem, it can overcome it.
    But then that brings up the question:  what actually is the problem?

    Arguably, the single greatest flaw in human minds is when we think we know something already, we have a hard time wrapping our mind around any different idea that deviates from that.  It first requires us to come to the conclusion we may have been wrong before, and it requires us to accept a whole new idea that is at first uncomfortable and somewhat unfamiliar.  Scientists are required to do this fairly often, but they also have trouble with it.

    That’s because your human brain automatically looks for something familiar in everything it sees. So if we see something unusual, we have a hard time processing it simply because our brains are designed that way. We try to relate everything we see to something we’ve seen before. And in the world of the paranormal and cryptids, this can be a huge problem. Since we can only speculate much of the time on these subjects, our minds need to be wide open to different possibilities.  Because there are so many…and we need to remember that.

    But how does this relate to bigfoot research?

 We need to change the way we think about everything.  And there are no better people to learn this first than bigfoot researchers.  Since we’re always looking for the proverbial needle in a haystack, we’re more used to rethinking things. But we need to get even better at it.

    I know I’ve said this before, but after years of analogies about ducks, we need to ditch this one:  “If it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck, it’s probably a duck.”  Probably does not mean definitely.  And if there’s any possibility it’s something else, we need to acknowledge that.

    No one made this point better than paranormal researcher, Sharon Day, author of Ghost Hunting Theories, when she spoke about dog man sightings and how people process what they’ve seen, and how it often sparks hot debate.

    “Oh yes. I would say this,  "We get caught up in Dogman looking like a dog because that's our comparison for something hair covered and having a snout shape to the foreface. We did the same thing with Bigfoot, calling it ape because we had no reference to something hair covered and upright. We need to expand our research, removing the "canine" reference and look to real world explanations for the origins of something that appears like this creature.
 
    Sharon will be elaborating on that in her blog in the near future. But can you see where this is going? Just because a creature looks like a dog, howls at night, and eats meat, does not mean it’s a canine.  The term “dogman” is nothing more than a description of a creature that resembles a dog. It may actually be something completely different that we have yet to discover.

    The only way to take the research farther than it’s ever gone is to change our own minds. Be prepared to say we might be wrong, and accept the idea of other possibilities.  In essence, don’t believe everything you think.  Because in the world of cryptids, we all might be wrong about a lot of things.

    Also, just because something hasn’t been proved, doesn’t mean it’s impossible.  It might very well be possible…even in a context none of us understands yet.  There are many things we can’t conceive of because we have no experience of them. Does that mean they never happen or don’t exist?  None of us really knows for sure.  All of us would like to be an expert on the subject of Bigfoot, but no one really is. Once we think we have all the answers, we stop looking for any new information and we shut down the conversation and won’t listen to another idea. That is a tragedy for research. Even renowned physicist, Stephen Hawking, one of the greatest minds of our generation, admits that he’d rather advance his understanding of the universe rather than protect his own ego by holding on to old, outdated ideas.  That’s what we have to keep in mind when we’re trying to unlock any mystery.

    So, there are great opportunities to put this into practice. Bigfoot researchers have the greatest opportunities to become some of the most open minds of our generation; great out-of-the-box thinkers.  It’s imperative…when none of us knows exactly what we’re dealing with.  Being completely objective should be number one on our long list of the skills it takes to find elusive creatures.  And just a small adjustment to our mindset can certainly bring us closer to it.

I find the video very interesting. A big thanks to Brian for letting us attempt to enhance it.
Make sure to visit Brian's group by Clicking Here!

I'm second-guessing myself on the one in the tree but while doing the frame-by-frame it appears to jump down ... the tree branch is kind of blocking the view...

UPDATE -
We are aware of the 2 figures in the video, but we were alerted to the possibility of another figure. You can make up your own mind. Bigfoot activity seems to be continuing to happen in this area and we wish Brian all the best in capturing more videos.
Here is a new analysis of the footage.

General area where the sighing took, as best as I could pinpoint.

This post by Thomas Marcum, Thomas is the founder/leader of the cryptozoology and paranormal research organization known as The Crypto Crew. Over 20 years experience with research and investigation of unexplained activity, working with video and websites. A trained wild land firefighter and a published photographer, and poet.


This sighting took place back in May of this year. I have attempted to local the general area as best I could based on the info given. The picture of the map above is a place called Tundra near the community of Bethel, AK. I did not take this report in, I found it and I'm sharing the post word for word. Full credit for the original post should go to Deltadiscovery.com.

Here is the account.


Two geese hunters who are from Bethel are the most recent eyewitnesses of a large, hairy, Bigfoot-like creature on the tundra near the community of Bethel.

One of the hunters, speaking on terms of anonymity, said that he and his partner were hunting for geese a few miles from the “golf ball” out on BIA Road on the Atmautluak Trail area when they came across the mysterious creature.

The day was a Saturday, May 3rd, 2014. It was nearing 11pm at night but it was still light out with the longer spring days.

They were on their way home on their 4-wheelers when one of them spotted the large man-like being, covered completely in dark hair sitting on the tundra in front of a lake with its legs stretched out in front of it.

“What is that?” he asked his hunting partner. They thought it was some sort of animal but looking at it, they realized it was sitting down like a person, very manlike.
“It looked like it was sitting down to eat,” said the eyewitness.
It was not a bear – it was too tall even while sitting, and it was not anything resembling a moose – it looked like a humongous person sitting on the tundra.

One of the men was curious and wanted to get closer for a better look. But no, the other hunter did not want to go any closer than they already were, which was about 100 yards or so, so they stayed where they were.

When the men first noticed the hair-covered and enormous being, they stopped to watch. At first the being did not know it was being stared at by the two hunters who were very curiously and intently looking. The creature had looked comfortable sitting on the tundra, turning its head and shoulders nonchalantly when it suddenly locked eyes with the hunters. When it locked eyes with them, the creature immediately stopped fidgeting and focused all of its attention on the two men and froze.
That gave those two hunters the major creeps.

So after trading gazes with the being for about a minute which was about as long as they could stand, the men got back on their ATVs and continued on their way home afraid and shaken but thrilled that they had seen something that could have been Bigfoot! And while they were driving back, they kept looking over their shoulder to make sure the creature was not following them!

The eyewitness who reported this encounter said that he had always questioned the validity of Bigfoot sightings. Never before had he seen anything like this, and now he says they definitely did see something.

- End Report -

It seems like  a pretty good sighting report to me. If anyone else in that area has seen a Bigfoot, feel free to contact us.

Thanks

A month or so ago we featured a very short video clip of what appeared to be a Bigfoot digging in dirt.  You can view the video by Clicking here, At first there was hope that the video was real. I got the clip from Pearl Prihoda and she stated up front that she didn't film it or know much about it.  I knew I had seen the short clip somewhere before but just couldn't place it. Well, thanks to Johnny Bigfoot, we discovered the true origins of the bigfoot digging in the dirt video. It was part of a Bigfoot documentary called Bigfoot - The Definitive Guide. The show was featured on The History Channel.

Even after seeing that the short clip was from a documentary some still hold the clip in high regards and consider it to be of a real bigfoot. Could they have used a clip of a real bigfoot in their film? Highly doubtful. 

So this got me to looking around on the internet for more information about his small part of this documentary film. The film itself was nothing to really write home about, but this short part of it seemed to strike a core with some people.

Well, during my searching for info about this clip I was able to find a full colored photo of the bigfoot digging in the dirt and here it is.

Bigfoot digging in dirt.

Hopefully, with this colored picture people can now see that this is clearly a bigfoot costume and the clip was a staged event to drive home a point in the documentary.

Thanks

- Start Interview -

TM: How long have you been researching/studying bigfoot?

BS: I have always had an interest in the subject of Sasquatch since I was a child. I saw my first when I was 11 years old. I had a few other occurrences since then and really started to go out into the field at night in 2010.

TM: What got you interested in Bigfoot, Was there a particular event that got you started? 

BS: I'd have to go all the way back to the 70s with the Sasquatch movie and Six Million Dollar Man series. Though I had had many incidents through my life that, at the time, I did not associate with Sasquatch. I now know they were. I'd have to say the event that truly got me started was having rocks thrown at me and my son.

TM: During your research/studying of Bigfoot, have you ever encountered aggressive behavior or felt in danger from a bigfoot?(details please)

BS: I have had one roar at me and my teammate Melissa Peacock from about 50 yards away. Though it was scary at the time, we never felt threatened or in fear of our lives. The roar was more of a territorial thing. We were on a trail behind it while it was looking over a field. I think we startled it.  I have also had branch breaking and tree shaking in very close proximity to me while out there alone. I stood my ground and did not feel even then in fear of my life or any grave danger.

TM: It seems Skeptics are always ready to attack bigfoot research, How do you deal with it?

BS: How do I deal with skeptics? I don't really! I simply ask them if they ever go out in the woods alone in the middle of the night. A large percentage say no. I then comment on how they will never know from sitting at home on a couch! Until you are out there doing it and experiencing it, you really have no clue as to what is really going on out there. I think there is a skeptic in all of us. Or there should be. If I were not skeptical, then I would think everything in the woods was a Sasquatch. Every noise! Every movement! In the end, my research would be very biased and would truly warrant skepticism!

TM: Would you like to see Bigfoot accepted and/or proven to the general public?

BS: This is a tough question. I would love that, though I don't think it will ever happen. I believe certain branches of the government already know the truth of their existence. I'd hate to see them hunted by ignorant poachers. I'd hate to see the public at large have so much fear of them that they stop their normal recreational activities. I say quite often that I am not trying to prove to the world that they exist! I know they do! The world can get out there and find out the same why I have. For me, it's a more personal experience. Not to prove they exist, but to understand them. I envy them actually! In my mind, they are the ones who got it right!

TM: What is your favorite time of year to research/study bigfoot, When do you have your most success?

BS: I have had activity at all times of the year. Though I find Fall and Spring most eventful.

TM: Do you have a favorite Bigfoot story or report?

BS: I don't really. I feel that my own experiences are sufficient enough. I go out in the woods by myself usually every night. I have certain areas where I know they frequent. I have had great interaction and audio recordings from wood knocks, to howls, to even a type of communication between them. I know what I experience is factual and true to me. I think that would be what I would tell the skeptics, go out there and experience it for yourself!

TM: What would you be doing if you wasn't researching/studying bigfoot?

BS: Going crazy? LOL Seriously, it is addictive! When you would rather be out there in the woods instead of at home in a warm bed with your significant other, you know you're either hooked or not in the best of relationships! LOL
I don't know really! I'm a sculptor/artist so I would probably be pursuing that even more than I already do.

Thanks for doing the interview and good luck with all that you do.

- End Interview -

As mentioned by Brian, he does sculptors and is very good at it.  He should show more of his sculptor work. I found some picture on his facebook site. Impressive.

Ok folks, that concludes out 14th, yes 14th installment of our interview series. I hope you are enjoying them and I hope you pick out some of these fine folks and give them some support.

Thanks
~Tom~
