SC EP:160 Multiple Incidents

 

Tonight I speak with two guests. My first guest shares with us three separate incidents that happened to him.

  1. 1. Lake Tahoe April 27, 1980.   Mike Swank and I climbed up to the top of ” Manny’s Cave Rock”   US 50, north of Stateline, Nevada to watch the jet boat try to break some record on the lake.   Manny and Pat climbed up after us, we turned to say they had missed the first run and behind them was a monster.   We looked at each other, turned back and it was gone.   We watched the boat’s second run and saw it explode after it hit a branch or log in the water.   I stood where this thing had been, behind a large rock. It’s knees were about the same level as my waist.   I am 6’6″ tall.   We never said a word to anyone.   I told Luke the story about 3 years ago. 
  2. 2. Brown County State Park, east of Nashville, Indiana spring of 1990. I was operating a crane during a change-out at Otis Elevator in Bloomington, Indiana 7   12 hour shifts for 2 weeks.   My cousin was getting married in Columbus the next day and I was going to stay in Columbus, go to the wedding, then back to Otis for the last half of my shift. About 1-1:30 am I was coming to the entrance to the state park, in the middle of the road a guy was doing jumping jacks trying to get me to stop.  I pulled over, pulled out my Rugar 10-22 just in case and stepped out of the van. Something was on the north side of the road about 30 ft. up. This guy was scared to death, I jumped back in the van, unlocked the door and he dove in. We were being pelted with good size rocks. The guy had crapped his pants and I don’t blame him.   In the rear view we could see the silhouette of this thing, it was big and pissed.   We stopped at the gas station about a mile east and he changed into a pair of sweats I had in the back.  We did not go back to check out what the thing was or if it was still there. 
  3. 3. Columbus, Indiana   Sept 12, 2015, dusk.  Sky was still blue and sun barely up.   In the back yard with the dogs, heard a pack of coyotes, thought they were taking down a deer. Put the dogs in, grabbed a 12 gauge pump and 7 rounds of dove shot, walked about 250 yards into the woods.   No sound, nothing…. went into the clearing where I have spotted the coyotes before but nothing.   Looked around and started to go further into the woods when I heard a buck snort, then a second off to my right.  It sounded like a steam engine, then I heard something moving to my left flank and I chambered a round, never saw anything but heard a lot of huffing and snorting.  After I backed out of the clearing, a large stone was thrown over my head and I walked backwards for about 150 yards, something was parallel to me the entire retreat.   Went back to the house called my son in Ohio, he told me to go to the dock and listen for movement across the pond.   Never got there, something was on the west side of the house, got the shot gun and followed the clicking and bird calls to the side of the barn, got a yellow streak, even though I had deer slugs and came back to the house. Went into the woods about 1 on Sunday the 13th and their was coyote parts and pelts and blood just behind where I stopped.   Have not returned to the woods since.

I will also be speaking to Tony who is a truck driver and had an encounter while on the job. He will talk about some recent sightings that he just had and talks a little bit about his research. Tony saw a creature on two legs running a long the highway.

      I don’t know why Everyone shits their pants lately? It’s scat play I guess? Is there a drinking game for the words shifting pants? I’m sick of the shitting pants thing honestly …

        • Tyler D

          I don’t think that most people saying that are literally having an issue in their drawers. It’s just more or less an expression. N people handle fear differently so you never really know

        • tom b

          It is a well documented thing that happens to people and animals that when frightened for their lives they will involuntarily defecate. It is thought to be a defense mechanism to discourage predators by smelling bad.

        • Rodney P

          Yes its called fear I’m sure the people that are shitting there pants don’t have a problem with there butt muscles I would bet everything I got that if a 9 foot 800 lbs bigfoot was standing in front of you I KNOW you would SHIT your pants too.i know it’s easy to sit here and act tough in front of everybody and say there’s no way that you would but you will tough guy I’m sure

          • Dorothy S

            What a horrible thing to do! Maybe that Tom had a family – did you ever think of that? Maybe it belonged to some child. You could have just kept your cat indoors.

      • SantiamLady

        Don’t judge that poor man on his “charmin moment”. ???? Who knows how ANY of us might react if we’re being chased thru the woods in the middle of the night by some ????bellowing monster that is throwing rocks at us!? ????❗️
        Running for your life from a huge aggressive opponent has a way of triggering very primal responses…….like shitting yourself. ???? It’s common in both animals and humans alike.

      • Steven B

        I think if you research it a little, I believe you’ll find that people losing control of their bodily functions is quite common when they are legitimately terrified.

    • Tracy A

      Born and raised in Bloomington, In.. My brother lives in Brown Co. . I spent a lot of time there hunting/fishing and have 3 experiences, not knowing what was happening at the time. One tree pushed over with a crash while fishing. A dear disappearing 1 hour after being shot with bow, big blood patch, no dear and no blood trail from patch. Another time driving on 46 from Columbus just east of Nashville about 1 am, I slalomed 6 deer luckily spaced just rite about 40 yards apart like driver test cones. There were several more along the sides of the hwy. maybe 20 total. This was a raised berm section about 10 ft. above grain fields. They were just standing and did not spook. All were facing the same direction toward left side grain field. I wonder now if they were “treed” up on the highway, damdest thing. Brown Co. has a huge deer population and resembles a little Smoky Mts. in topography. No reason they would not be in that region.

      • Kathy S

        I’m glad you said this Tracy A… I was thinking that Tony has had an unusual number of sightings. If the food source is there, it wouldn’t be impossible for the same person to have multiple sightings. Especially since they’re out at night when the creatures are more active.

        Probably a few of us were struggling with Tony’s accent and inflection as he talked… I kept pushing that distraction away since I have a good friend with a thick Virginia accent and despite what others assume by his slow southern drawl, he’s pretty sharp. I was feeling guilty about disbelieving Tony’s account, your input really helped to back up his story… thanks. If I ever saw something, I would want to be believed.

    • Christopher c

      @ min.00:48:13 the guest mentions seeing one run down the power line right of way! I call them Bigfoot bowling lanes,there is something about the Squatch and it’s love for power line right of ways.

  2. Sean C

    Thank you Wes! I appreciate, how you appreciate, all of the appreciation from your guests and audience!

    I hope to meet you in Texas, the next time you fly in. 15 minutes away from the airport, and I’ll still carry your bags! LOL! I would though : P

    Chris, searching in Texas, Conroe that is

    • Kathy S

      Sean C, our Daughter’s family live in Houston so we’ve been through Conroe many times. The woods are very thick on Hwy 45… one late night my husband decided to stop on the exit ramp to stretch his legs, he didn’t appreciate my uneasiness at all. During the day, it’s beautiful and I love traveling through there but stopped by the side of the road around midnight, those woods are creepy 😉 This was 10-12 years ago, back when I thought Sas were all in the Northwest… now that I’ve heard many of the sightings along with Bob & Wes’s testimonies, I have no problem believing that there are Sas in Eastern Texas!

      After all I’ve heard about these creatures and East TX being ripe with them, I think of that Hwy N of Paris TX, you catch it on the Oklahoma side & it goes NE, I think it’s called the Indian Nation Turnpike… anyway, it’s not a well traveled road (nowhere to stop) but the scenery is gorgeous and the woods are very thick, if I was a Sas, I’d be in there, it would be perfect for them 😉 I wonder if some of the OK sightings are close to this Hwy… anyway, I would not travel that road at night for sure!!!

    • Christian L

      Ditto……not bashing but that was an extra funny detail….and I’m a muscle car guy…as was his disclaimer ” I was drinking beer but I was 21!”….dude we’re not gonna turn you in for underage drinking 30 years ago ….haha… .but hey he’s a 6’6″ ex Marine…..pretty sure he can say whatever the Hell he wants. Great story……a little confused why he never talked about his first sighting w his best buddy or the dude in the Van but I wasn’t in their shoes…..psychology is whacky…..no pun intended:) love this show!!!!

  8. Robert W

    Wes, I appreciate how patient you are with the guests;I do think that Tony may be influenced by his first sighting that is leading him on to other sightings that may not be quite right. That being said I believe truck drivers see more than they are willing to admit. It is really important that people feel safe in coming on the show and I respect your approach Wes!. Have a great week everyone!

  10. Jerry M

    This tony guy belongs on mountain monsters with no shoes Curley. This dude is definitely living off the grid!!!! I would be shredding this guy and his fifty eight sightings in 14 months.

  11. Elise B

    A perception of imminent threat to your life causes an extreme sympathetic surge and parasympathetic inputs are almost imperceptible. The body devotes almost all resources to primitive survival actions. In this setting, it is normal for the body to lose control of bladder and bowels. According to a survey quoted by Grossman in the book, in World War II 25% of ALL U.S. soldiers admitted to peeing their pants while 12.5% admitted to pooping their britches (pants of the 1940’s).

    Second guy…..umm…..as they say in the South….”bless his heart”:)….”having a good time” hahah…..I think eating road kill or ripping apart coyotes or deer and popping off the heads of cats, dogs or the occasional hiker for Big Foot is a real good time:)))))). LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!

  13. Becca E

    Well, it was a roller coaster ride for me listening to Tony. I don’t know if it’s all true but this is the place to tell it all, if it is.
    In a way I started to feel a bit sorry for him .

  20. brad b

    Great to hear an encounter from here in Indiana. I live about 45 minutes south of the first guest down I-65. From where he’s at in Columbus all the way down to the Ohio river there’s lots of suitable terrain and plenty of wildlife for these creatures to make use of. I’m surprised there aren’t more encounters reported out of this area (and a little relieved as well lol.)

  22. Janetta V

    Tony seems to be rambling, a real talker to the point you lose interest. He never did get Wes’s point, to much budding in, so he could talk more and more. Thank you Wes.

  23. Carson H

    Lol 2nd guest uber redneck guy , Wes -” what was the face reminded you of animal” caller “uhhh it was dark skin…uh …uh just looked more animal ”

    :: chuckles::

  24. James W

    Tony…. was hard to listen to. I felt trapped by his inability to tell an amazing story with any skill and also kept interrupting Wes.
    First guest was GREAT, get him back on with his son.

  28. Dovie D

    Wes I appreciate your patience with your guests. I agree with some of the other posts regarding Tony. I find it very difficult to believe he had that many sightings. He appeared to became somewhat defensive when you questioned his sightings and you put it very tactfully. Tony then seemed to ramble on. What I don’t understand is how did either of your guests feel with their first sighting? I have heard so many guests state how fearful they were and wish they had not experienced the sighting yet alone go looking for others without taking time to really process their first experience. Usually what I have heard is it may take a year or two before someone is even willing to go look for others and do research. It seemed odd that someone would just jump on the band wagon so to speak right away. I think Tony is taking a small trout and making it salmon..

  31. Carol F

    I’m in Indiana also and live west of Nashville near the Morgan Monroe Forestry and our BF research is constant and has been for many years. There are more Sasquatch in this area than average citizens realize; BFRO is active here as well as several less advertised groups such as ours. Your guest from Indiana was awesome and I hope you have him on again.
    Thanks Wes for a wonderful and highly informative show!

  36. Wally R

    Holy crap this truck driver doesn’t know when to shut the hell up! I don’t know how many times Wes had to say “the point I’m trying to make is….” Props to you Wes, for having so much patience with dummies like this guy!

  38. Christopher U

    I am going to need another cup of Java to help swallow that last story. I know that this is a safe place where we are not supposed to judge. So I’m going to get my coffee and do my best to get that last one down and keep my big mouth shut.

  39. Pat T

    Wes, major props for putting up with Tony. That dude has got to stay in his lane, pump his brakes and get back to reality. I lost track of all of his sightings and was afraid you might be sleeping when he finally stopped rambling. Cat had to have been one of Tom Bastardis weekly tools. Thanks for keeping your cool as usual. It’s not every time you can hit one out of the park with guys like Warren as this one was definitely
    a squibber back to the pitcher. I’ll continue to listen to the best show on my Pod Cast schedule regardless. Keep fighting Wes!

  42. Mitchell K

    I found tony to be quite honest and sincere. Ya didn’t know when to shut up and listen sometimes but so what. Probly a better man than most of the “non accented “city slickers that listen to the show. Thank you tony for sharing with us

  43. Russell K

    My son rold me about his squad leader on their first mission into combat in afghanistan while in the82nd airborne. As soon as they came under fire his squad leader stopped dropped his gear and his drawers and shit on the spot. Lol at least he never shit his pants.

  45. Stan B

    Wes, do you have a Rss feed so that i can listen to the member shows on the ipads podcast app. I can get the public shows on it but not the membership shows thanks.

  46. Seamus J. C

    Once my friends and I were pulled out of a hot-dog joint in Chicago by a group of punks. They lined us up outside while their leader walked up and down our line like a drill sargeant, insulting us by turns. Most of us were pretty passive–certain of our tougher, stronger friends were not with us, so it was probably wise. But their leader got in my face, What are you lookin’ at? kinda thing, so I swung at him and we ended up tussling on the ground. A huge man who worked in the hot dog joint came out and scared them all off, but I tell you, I had to run not walk to the bathroom right after they scattered because I would would would have shat my drawers, because it was pure diarrhea. My body had turned the contents of my colon to water in a matter of minutes, and holding it in was like holding in an enema. I barely made it. I was not sick, only aware that my friends and I were pretty close to having our faces pounded in, it was the fear. Looking back, I should have shat all over that guy. But I was not terrified to the point of being frozen and mute, as so many report being after having encountered one of our giant cousins. Also, it’s true that gorillas, even the macho silverbacks, when faced with a threat will leave a trail of diarrhea behind them as they flee, and it’s true that it makes following them less appetizing!

  47. Jane M

    I think Wes’ very respectful attitude is astounding as well as necessary for people to come on the show. Thanks Wes! I only heard what I thought was one or more in forest around Grand Canyon on a bike run from Northern California one night. I will never ever ever forget how scared I was solo in my tent and I did not even think of Sasquatch back then, but it was nothing I ever heard before.

  49. Stacy F

    Well, I made it an hour and just can’t even take it anymore. This last guy is so full of crap. And for the love of God, dude, shut UP and let the host finish his statement/question, instead of continually interrupting him Every. Single. Time. Criminy.

    Wes, sometimes it would be better to just jump in, thank the guest for their time, and wrap it up. Don’t ever feel bad if you need to kill a show early to put it out of it’s misery. 😉

    • Bradley L

      Completey agreed – I was praying Wes would jump in and finish it up but then I checked the run time remaining and there was like half an hour. One of THE WORST guests EVER!!!! Oh and to the person who said “no accent” city slickers are better? As an Australian listening, not only was Tony a droning bore, his accent (plus bad quality phone connection) made him INTERMINABLY hard to listen to and used ALL of my patience.

  51. Kim G

    I don’t doubt Tony witnessed something, but like Wes stated, can this be a case of pareidolia? After experiencing a encounter, what can be explained as something else, becomes what the eyewitness wants it to be?

    • Bradley L

      It must be a regional thing because I’ve heard a lot of guests say “acrosst” on this show and Dogman Encounterrs.

      This type of thing used to annoy me but, what are ya gonna do?
