Upcoming Show: Talk about feeling helpless

A listener writes “I grew up in Eastern Kentucky. A friend and I were out camping in a cabin that he had built.

It was fall 1984. We were sitting around the camp fire and we started hearing something big and heavy coming down the mountain on two legs. It was coming toward us and pushing trees down as it approached.

Everyone back there usually carries a gun to the woods but of course we didn’t have one. But we did have fire crackers. So we thought if someone was messing with us, they would hear the pops and think that we were shooting a 22. Well it didn’t phase this thing. We had a huge fire going. So this thing was getting closer and closer. It gets just about on top of us and we retreated to the cabin.

Locked the door and this thing kept us pinned down in that cabin until 5 the next morning. It circled around the cabin and at one point lifted up on the corner of the roof. Talk about feeling helpless. So we hadn’t heard it for about an hour and decided to make a run for it.

Feel free to contact me and I will go over it all with you.”

    Sounds like another good encounter! I can’t imagine being trapped in a cabin and then having something big enough to try and lift the roof off….. That would be it for camping for me!
