A preview of tomorrow nights show. I will be welcoming John to the show. John is a Marine Veteran. Here is a link to the preview
“In 2017 we took our cadets out to an FTX (Field Training Exercise) near Tenino, WA. On the 1st night we heard what I now know to be tree knocks, which was curious but nothing unnerving, so we really paid no attention to it.
But the 2nd night… around 0130 (1:30 am) we heard a LOUD, chilling, otherworldly yell, that got all the staff out of our tents at lightning speed and on immediate high alert.
The length… of the howl / screaming growl; NOTHING I know of has a lung capacity that large. I’m a hunter & fisherman, so I spend a fair amount of time in nature (or at least, I used to) and I’ve never heard anything like that, ever, in my life.
A sustained vocalization of approx 25-30 seconds in one breath. It was chilling. Almost paralyzing.
What truly stood my hair on end, was some kind of infrasound reverb passing through my vital organs that accompanied the yell. Like a lion’s huff. I Felt the sound waves ripple through my body, vibrating my guts.
The voice was strange too. As if multiple sets of vocal cords were overlaid, activating all at once. Like 2 or 3 voices of different octaves and pitch, but altogether, wrapped up in a singular voice.
I know that sounds insane, but it’s difficult to describe.
The 2nd vocalization had us back in our tents drawing our firearms… but for the first time, I had no confidence in my weapon against whatever made that sound. It was so intimidating. I felt thoroughly vulnerable, despite being armed. I mean Utterly helpless.
We heard tree knocks again shortly after, and then another vocalization from the other side of the field in the opposite tree line and then tree knocks from that location as well. I don’t know if there were two of them communicating across the field, or if it was the same one circling and repositioning around our perimeter. Whichever it was, it sounded aggressive. It certainly wasn’t happy we were there.
Like I said previously, we never saw it, because it was in the darkness beyond the glow of our bonfire in the center of camp. On the other hand, I hated being so exposed because we were at a tactical disadvantage. We were illuminated by the fire, so it could see us, but we couldn’t see it. I wish I had brought NVG’s. (I certainly will next time)
A rock was thrown at our campfire where we, the staff were in befuddled conversation, about just what the hell to do. A few more rocks were thrown at us periodically but eventually it got quite. Obviously, we couldn’t go back to sleep. We stayed up, and remained on watch until sunrise. We packed up and left the following morning.”

Hi Rhonda, they have one with a 6000 lumes that’s the most powerful that even we get in the military what differentiates the extension with and light accessibility is what they call the looms you need to see if you can find one with 6000 they used to only have a 4000 Lumes but they just recently released 6000 lumesto civilians I hope that helps you., the 6000 I just checked is $129. They have a 2000 moon for $49. That’s about 4 inches long that is just ridiculous. The 6000 is a longer flashlight it’s extraordinary but it’s really like having a spotlight for stadium capability, and when you pull it forward or push it back it whines to almost30- 50 yards each way, it’s literally like having a stadium light in your hand. They are extremely mindful to say do not look directly into it, and do not flash it at any one closer than 10 yards. It also comes with a repeater on it, or a blinker that if you hit that button and pointed at someone, they have to immediately look away and they go to their knees Law enforcement has been using it recently as a deterrent towards Art teasers, or even our bowler rap guns, which fire out like a real Bola Wrap that wraps people up around their chest or their legs for about 15 seconds that is extraordinary if you, Google Bola -Wrape Device which they also just released for civilian use. It’s a bit pricey but when you Google the Bola Wrap gun or device, it does everything that the little video show you I apologize for the long text.
