True but they also hear every single thing which can be even worse. Arse end of nowhere in Cropton Forest once, my eldest dog (border collie) went full Cujo style snarling, full teeth and viciously barking, semi lunging and snapping at something right there in front of us which she could see but i couldn't. It was like the Blair Witch scene where they run out from the tent in blind panic I just legged it and yelled at her to follow. Camera trap thing we'd put up for recording foxes captured what was the most eerie, terrifying little hedgehog that ever happened to mooch past for his supper. *A single, solitary goddamn hedgehog*
Speaking of the foxes in woods If you've never heard one, a fox call in the middle of night sounds like a woman's blood-curdling scream not even kidding either it's the most terrifying thing I ever heard first time at 5am in local woods with the dog. Dog didn't even move, bark or move a muscle either we just froze. Horrible. But yeah if you do head off solo camping for some reason it's wise to read up a bit on what wildlife is usually found in those parts, where seen, calls they make, best places to see them or avoid them whichever. I can't even imagine the fear someone would feel hearing that for first time whilst camping out alone in the middle of a huge forest. A literal shit in the pants.
damian you've got some balls mate ,you wouldn't get me doing a solo in the spooky forest of doom ,be honest you were a bit scared lol,hats off to you mate you've faced your fears atb iain
Us humans are hardwired for predators in the dark, it's natural to be scared. I am more scared of chavs in my woods, than spirits of the dead, aliens, etc. haha... Chickens lips and arseholes.. ;)
Davey is messin with you, aint no critters out there . Great to see you back in the spooky woods. Thank You for sharing your video, and bringing us along. ATB
Does look a spooky forest to be fair, I've done some solo wild camps in woods and my imagination gets the better of me at times. Great the way you've put that hammock together and that burner is really Good! atb
I may have been two years too late LOL but I'm glad I found his channel he's pretty funny I bet he would be a ball to hang it with and go camping definitely got a new subscriber look forward to more videos keep up the good videos I find he just got a certain aura about him that make you feel like you've known him forever
I’ve watched this several times now-really like your even-handed presentation of the evidence. It’s a wonderful evocation too of happy solitude in a very strange and evocative landscape .
Fantastic vid that Damien and love the fact you’re no nonsense and just do it 👍🏼. Mind it’s a spooky place especially with the darkness from the tree canopy. Just goes to show you dnt need to spend a fortune to get out and do it. Oh and that stove is a cracking idea, I’ll be along Ikea this weekend 😉. Cheers for sharing a great vid entertaining as always mate hope you’re well. ATB Steve
Hi Damian if it's the same forest of doom that i think it is when i camped there last winter i stumbled across one off your camp's,in the early hour's i heard that owl and deer barks and screaming noises,as you say it's blacker than black in the evening and your ears and what vision you've got play tricks on you. Nothing wrong with el-cheapo damian ,i was looking for the donkey in the background to that helped you carry all that kit in lol,cheers Mac.
Looks to me like you're camping on the cheap is pretty efficient. Anybody who can't handle that is just being snobbish or envious of your efforts...lol...keep at it!
Good stuff Damian.the headless horseman passed during the night and shit himself when he heard you snoring.lol.those wee gas cookers are great ive had a few and love them very handy.love your wild camping.
A good laugh and a great location,, I love solo woodland above any other camps. I’d be really interested though to test the infrasonic sound levels in these spooky locations,,, as for the footprint,,, possibly a person with a foot left it at the same time they marked their path by poking a stick in the ground. We are not alone,,, there are many other people who use the woods ,,,, Woooooh 😆
Hi Mate, thanks for posting, love your videos and (I am a scientific sceptic, but with an interest in anthropology/early hominids) I do like to hear your theories, and mainly your passion about a subject that you are very impassioned about. I would really love to one day, have a good sit down conversation with you about the yeti theory as I genuinely do find it very interesting subject, plausible given the evidence you have collected. Anyway, now that you are a glamper lol, am looking forward to seeing more videos as I do find them really enjoyable and very interesting. All the best, and good on you staying out in the spooky forest, yes, it looked very effing spooky :) All the best mate, Nick
its about you its wild camping i enjoy watching anything ya use modern or made stoves or fire no matter its about you and what you like doing is why i watch to see what others like doing for ideas and comparing and jus pure enjoying someone else outside in the cold and rain while im stuck in a warm house lol jus kidding great stuff love your humour lol
Excellent video and there is nothing wrong with doling things on the cheap, a bit of brain power and skill and you dont need to spend a fortune. Good for you mate. Glad you enjoyed it and i hope you find more secrets in the secret spooky woods. Take care mate. Keep up the good work.
Another great video!.....We love watching your adventures and scene of humour. We tried a wild camp a couple of months ago and completely failed!....(posted a video of our failed attempt on our channel, if you want to see how not to do it). Keep up the great Vids....They keep us entertained and wanting to give it another go....ATB......Mick & Sue.
Hey Damian, thats a cracking spot buddy. Kudos to you for camping alone in those forests. Not small either, I thought you had a trail cam would've been awesome to seen what came into camp. Thanks for sharing pal. Trev
spooky snoring lol, great camp - loved this vid.I wild camp a lot and like you sometimes get nervous so Im going to do a solo wild camp soon but somewhere new me thinks.
Quality mate! - I reckon you're on to something in that forest. Ive been watching your Vids for a while and I reckon you should keep pushing that spot for its potential. The tree breaks, the audio and the footprint are very interesting. I think Colorado Bigfoot, Bob Gymlyn and Utah Saquatch would approve! The UK still has its Wild places despite all the haters. Muchos respect for a lone mission. Save your pennies for the Thermal game camera! Take it easy and take care...
Hi damian well i would camp there all on me todd.... Great vid and yes it's an overactive mind that scares you.. Harwood is a great place to do lone camps..
I subscribed not only becuz i like this type of content (i love wild nature) but also becuz you're brave enough to be alone out there, i would never do that lol
Good on ya Damo for facing your fears or worries mate, regarding the breakages, if you get snow fall in that forest then all can be explained mate, remember they are man made logging forests and those miles and miles of straight lines will do a number on you. The mind sees what it wants too. Scotoma mate. ATB Moose.
Lovely video mate... I was impressed with your modified fertiliser bag hammock! Clever... I've used a zoom recorder they are brilliant... They are popular with war correspondents.. I use them when shooting documentaries... Never thought of plugging in my anker portable battery pack though.. Smart thinking. Your drone shots were beautiful.. Do get a tree attachment wildlife cam... They are great fun... Some other kit recommendations are a petzl nao headtorch... Expensive yet mind blowingly brilliant, sealskimz gore tex socks are great for keeping your feet dry... Oex or dd hammocks are cool too... Yet I appreciate you may not wish to hump that weight to your secret spot. What is the story with that footprint... For a while I thought it may be a soft welly boot print yet there was no heel on it...that tree had rot at the bottom... Funghi can cause rot too near the bases... I often camp solo in a double hooped bivvi and hear muntjac, fallow, roe, and foxes barking at night... A haunting yet magical sound... If you create an arc of tuna juice near the wildlife cam you may draw foxes in nearer the night wildlife cam just a tip... Fun video.. Camp safe... Dont forget to check the nearbye widow makers.. Dead trees... Stay safe... Your snoring made me laugh on the recording but atleast your a good sleeper in the wild!
Hi Alex, thanks for your comments. I have a trail camera and have recorded foxes and deer in the forest but I'm more of a paranormal researcher and don't use it much, although the tuna smell is a great tip. I have heard unusual sounds with the Zoom H6, on my last camp at Harwood. I recorded what sounds like the name Christopher being spoken twice, (link to file in description) the first sound at 2 seconds which was very faint and louder at 6 seconds. I don't know what to make of it but my best guess is, it’s something intelligent trying to communicate. I'll link to the 9 second audio file on my Google drive if you’re interested. I also have the high quality unedited wave file, its 1 hour long and 2GB in size. It's there incase anyone wants to scrutinize the recording. The footprint I found was from the same place the sounds were recorded, it looked old and damaged by the water in the stream, which had risen and eroded much of it, but I could see a general impression of where the toes would be. I don't know what made the print but it’s strange there was only one and not a track full of them. Harwood Forest sounds, 9 second clip: drive.google.com/file/d/1Gmj0SPk4AfbJjFnBbUdNY5e47wtSKpMN/view?usp=sharing Harwood Forest sounds, original 1 hour long, unedited audio wave file.

Hey, Damian, you should go wild camping in the spooky forest while there's snow. Footprints will be easy to spot. If you find any, you can follow it to its lair. And take your trail camera. Merry Christmas.
Once again a cracking video Damian, I well enjoy your local videos. Big B**ls for camping there on your own. Been there a few times, ive never camped there,its canny spooky in day light. Im going to have to spend a night there,.... with some friends though
Some interesting breaks and bends ! Nice Overnighter ! I’m going for a solo Overnighter in Vermont in the depths of Bigfoot country on Saturday night, I will get some video,peace
Damian its the geese at night arranging the branches....messing with your mind mate lol. But seriously you never know what could cross your path one night, here in Leicestershire many years ago i was walking my then two German Shepherd dogs on a lovely countryside eight mile circuit that ive done many times, its quite remote, dont see many people, it was getting close to dusk when out of nowhere a black panther raced across the path i was walking on chasing a muntjac deer. Thankfully for me my two dogs were worn out after a hot days long walk and were trailing a good 100 metres behind me and din't have time to react because it happened so fast. Again because it happened so fast i didnt even have time to be shocked, i was more stunned, for days i never said anything thinking i must be mad, i made excuses that it was a large dog or fat household cat, but i knew 100% it was a black panther. Eventually i talked to local game keepers , even a local policeman, and farmers and they admitted to myself that over the years they had seen a panther themselves. I checked online and found that there is a Leicestershire Big Cat Society that logs sighting in what is known as 'the panther triangle', this panther has been sighted by lorry drivers, local drivers and again policemen on duty. Up to that time i had never took interest in any big cat sightings etc, but i can tell you now it has made me more aware of what could be out there. This happened in 2009, i have never seen it again since even though i walk this area over the last 8 years since. Hope that doesn't worry you anymore ...... atb Bill
Apart from the geese I have no idea what the sounds were. Most of the night time sound was spoiled by my snoring. I have since been back camping and have 12 hours of audio to listen to. thanks for watching
Nerves of steel Damian, love the colour co ordinated bedding,😆 keep the vids coming, your a legend. We followed in yours and Andy's footsteps to Petico Wick cliff for our 4th wildcamp, awesome, take care, atb
Harwood forest is the location and I have been freaked out a few times camping there alone. I'm a lot better now as its mind over matter, if there was anything that would do harm, they could have done it a long time ago, ATB
The Bigfoot came up to you, heard you snoring, and immediately teleported to another dimension to check out your TH-cam video. He likes to watch them, as I do. ☺
I worked in these sort of woods for 30 years and come across some crazy things. We aren't the apex predator out there anymore. I have felt uneasy in broad daylight in some of these places let alone camp out alone at night. Take care bro
Why not get in touch with your feminine side and get an el cheapo pink roll mat you know it makes sense lol . Great vid Damian ,some good food for thought there ,and your right if you go solo then you sensitize yourself to sounds which you know cant come from anyone else . and it does take a canny set of balls to do what you do to spend a night in some spooky woods ,Iv'e done it myself . Another great watch .I'm up for a night in the spooky woods .Keep a howld ATB Paul
Paul if you want a night in those woods then lets do it sometime. Theres not much scenery as all the trees look the same but its very interesting finding unusual breaks and structures. ATB
Yep just let me know when your up there next and i will make arrangements and I will make sure I have my re-enforced underwear on lol .looks very atmospheric ATB Paul
Good vid mate as ever. i do like the way you have a combination of proper camping gear. And making stuff out of old junk. So many on here are all about the gadgets. which is fine, im all for gadgets. But its nice to see someone doing like we did when we were kids. Keep up the good work. and once again, good luck with that yeti. try rodster6 youtube channel. His halloween vid was very interesting. i'd bet if he came out with you he'd find that yeti in no time at all. Gary
Just having a closer look at your vid, pine woodlands are always a bit odd, camped in one recently and the dead fall looks more like a war zone. im not a fan of pines at all, uneven ground, lots more flying bug, ants and all that. give me a beach woodland any day. but you have us all thinking for sure. or maybe yar just avin a bit of a wind up like? either way i enjoy your vids, dont forget to check rodstar6. Gary
your a bloody braver man than me mate Haha. yea something was moving round camp and I could also hear you snoring 😂 I bet whatever it was it was like "what the bleedin hell is that racket" great content pal, really enjoyed this video.
The audio recorder is very sensitive and it may have picked up the sound of a small animal close to the microphone or footsteps of something much larger further away, I'll never know but when I'm there it freaks me out if I think too much about it
Going off my field recordings, most sounds of bird activity is easily identified at dawn, such as pigeons flapping wings etc.. Birds roosting can be startled by me through the night. I realise most of my audio recordings are likely natural, other than the human like voices I've also recorded which defly explaination in my humble opinion.
So weird because is so silent and is not alike nature grows up. It is modern 'Green Deserts" based only in owner's and or contractor's benerits, any animal spieces like to live there but a bunch of bugs. Nice video mate! ATB.
I didn't take one on this occasion as it never picks anything up usually. Sods law on the first time I didn't bring it something was heard creeping around, atb
Not sure what is was. A fox or deer would avoid coming into contact with humans, Sounds like the foliage was being moved when something passed through and the branches are way off the ground and a short animal would be more stealthy so its a mystery

Get yourself a little pooch mate. You'll feel a lot more relaxed camping in the woods with a fury buddy with you.they sense any danger
Also don't forget an AKS-74U to keep company. Just in case..
@@vuho2075 hahahaheeheehehe, right on !

Fears really ? where i camp your not even the top of the food chain ATB from the woods
Us humans are hardwired for predators in the dark, it's natural to be scared. I am more scared of chavs in my woods, than spirits of the dead, aliens, etc. haha... Chickens lips and arseholes.. ;)
Plus, we are hardwired to see faces! In a knothole, in the rug, in the forest, etc.!
Brilliant video mate, thanks for sharing the trip
Great work Fell Wanderer. .keep investigating it'll pay off eventually mate....
Good to see you out.........the imagination can be a dodgy thing in a place like that, I salute your bravery. Cheers, Stu.
Glad you went back on your own to confront the unknown. Looking forward to more videos.
Davey is messin with you, aint no critters out there . Great to see you back in the spooky woods. Thank You for sharing your video, and bringing us along. ATB
Yes certainly enjoyed it, you are a very brave man wild camping in that very spooky wood. Well done to you. ⛺️🏕
Very large balls indeed, spooky place!!! Great content!!!
Cracking hobo stove! Great video as usual :)
Nice one,Damian.
Always looks forward to your uploads.
Does look a spooky forest to be fair, I've done some solo wild camps in woods and my imagination gets the better of me at times. Great the way you've put that hammock together and that burner is really Good! atb
Big fan of your channel

Nice one 👍 nice wee camp. Love the idea with the ton bag hope your well ☺
Good to see you braving Harwood forest by yourself again!
I’ve watched this several times now-really like your even-handed presentation of the evidence. It’s a wonderful evocation too of happy solitude in a very strange and evocative landscape .
I try to keep am open mind, thanks for your comment.
Fantastic vid that Damien and love the fact you’re no nonsense and just do it 👍🏼. Mind it’s a spooky place especially with the darkness from the tree canopy. Just goes to show you dnt need to spend a fortune to get out and do it. Oh and that stove is a cracking idea, I’ll be along Ikea this weekend 😉. Cheers for sharing a great vid entertaining as always mate hope you’re well. ATB Steve
Great vid Damien, I'm itching to get out lol
Great vid damian I have seen a Bigfoot hope u was not too creeped out in the forest all the best shaine
As a pine forest campers who's really missing camping I've come to this video to relax 💪 stay safe.
been watching for a while now . like your vids keep up the good work
Excellent video! We all live in the
"Spooky Forest"
Hi Damian if it's the same forest of doom that i think it is when i camped there last winter i stumbled across one off your camp's,in the early hour's i heard that owl and deer barks and screaming noises,as you say it's blacker than black in the evening and your ears and what vision you've got play tricks on you.
Nothing wrong with el-cheapo damian ,i was looking for the donkey in the background to that helped you carry all that kit in lol,cheers Mac.
Looks to me like you're camping on the cheap is pretty efficient. Anybody who can't handle that is just being snobbish or envious of your efforts...lol...keep at it!
Why I wont buy an Aquaquest tarp
Good stuff Damian.the headless horseman passed during the night and shit himself when he heard you snoring.lol.those wee gas cookers are great ive had a few and love them very handy.love your wild camping.
Always make time ta watch your vids and a great way to chill outwith a massive cuppa ATB
love your kit, takes you back to being a kid with nowt but still went out
Great stuff Damien, you should have had the Big Lad wi ye he would have chased them away lol, great video, looks like a great place
Nice set up. I always bring 2 dry logs with me when I camp here in Michigan all the time and and a titanium stove.
A good laugh and a great location,, I love solo woodland above any other camps. I’d be really interested though to test the infrasonic sound levels in these spooky locations,,, as for the footprint,,, possibly a person with a foot left it at the same time they marked their path by poking a stick in the ground. We are not alone,,, there are many other people who use the woods ,,,, Woooooh 😆
Awesome vid!!! Y’all have a squatch in spooky forest of doom!!!
Great as per! Good spot!
Dodgy enough sleeping in the forest when you see all those fallen branches and trees. Great vid Damian.
Made my day cheers Damian all the best

Just found your channel some great videos , gave you a sub 👍🏻
Thank you, atb
You know it makes sense !
your sound equipment picked up your snoring, you snore like a trooper mate, fair played
Brilliant 👍🏻
that wasnt the sound of wild geese but the sound of el cheapo cabra but your snoring probably scared it off stay safe out there damian
I was born in Loas a tiny country between Thailand and Vietnam and yes we have big story about them bigfoot. we called MOSHLUB
morning buddy . great video . did you listen too the sound s an try too find out what thy were? . thanks for ya time an sharing . ATB
Apart from the geese I have no idea what the sounds were. Most of the night time sound was spoiled by my snoring. I have since been back camping and have 12 hours of audio to listen to. thanks for watching
Your hammock is genius.
You very brave old man..
Mother nature moves in mysterious ways bro. Made for a great video though ATB
a spooky wood indeed!
Ive heard some strange and as of yet unexplained things in the forest...reckon some things are best left that way.
atb...woods
Great video a big thank you, you inspired myself and ABF outdoors to go out and do a bit of wildcamping a big thank you ATB
Nerves of steel Damian, love the colour co ordinated bedding,😆 keep the vids coming, your a legend. We followed in yours and Andy's footsteps to Petico Wick cliff for our 4th wildcamp, awesome, take care, atb
And not to forget big gav he would love a shout out would make his day ATB
Nice camp, at 27:07 i saw something right hand corner of screen float by, might be my imagination lol! Ed
Saw it too, I think it was a silk from a spiders web glistening in the sunlight, thanks
Good stuff would love to do this very inspiring where to spookyest place you've camped in the uk.
Harwood forest is the location and I have been freaked out a few times camping there alone. I'm a lot better now as its mind over matter, if there was anything that would do harm, they could have done it a long time ago, ATB
The Bigfoot came up to you, heard you snoring, and immediately teleported to another dimension to check out your TH-cam video. He likes to watch them, as I do. ☺
Damian, I would invest in a couple of trail cameras mate. See what is moving around you. It's always an eye-opener. I always take one with me.
I have one but never picks anything up other than known animals... The audio recorder records more activity I've found
I worked in these sort of woods for 30 years and come across some crazy things. We aren't the apex predator out there anymore. I have felt uneasy in broad daylight in some of these places let alone camp out alone at night. Take care bro
The broken branches high up, first nation people in America did that to point to water-sources, of course their breaks weren't so high!
Liking the instant mash technique - It makes sense. Must try it.
looks like a great spot,have a similar stove,works perfectly
think it was woodworm,and finally collapsed
Why not get in touch with your feminine side and get an el cheapo pink roll mat you know it makes sense lol .
Great vid Damian ,some good food for thought there ,and your right if you go solo then you sensitize yourself to sounds which you know cant come from anyone else .
and it does take a canny set of balls to do what you do to spend a night in some spooky woods ,Iv'e done it myself .
Another great watch .I'm up for a night in the spooky woods .Keep a howld ATB Paul
Paul if you want a night in those woods then lets do it sometime. Theres not much scenery as all the trees look the same but its very interesting finding unusual breaks and structures. ATB
Yep just let me know when your up there next and i will make arrangements and I will make sure I have my re-enforced underwear on lol .looks very atmospheric ATB Paul
Good vid mate as ever.
i do like the way you have a combination of proper camping gear. And making stuff out of old junk. So many on here are all about the gadgets. which is fine, im all for gadgets. But its nice to see someone doing like we did when we were kids.
Keep up the good work. and once again, good luck with that yeti. try rodster6 youtube channel. His halloween vid was very interesting. i'd bet if he came out with you he'd find that yeti in no time at all.

Just having a closer look at your vid, pine woodlands are always a bit odd, camped in one recently and the dead fall looks more like a war zone. im not a fan of pines at all, uneven ground, lots more flying bug, ants and all that.
give me a beach woodland any day. but you have us all thinking for sure.
or maybe yar just avin a bit of a wind up like?
either way i enjoy your vids, dont forget to check rodstar6.
Gary
It's well cool mate I think these big foot things are everywhere
Brilliant
Ur kettle handle did u put it down while it was boiling
Looks a nice place to camp but you need some decent food in ya bloody smash and meatballs haha thanks for sharing
Top video
your a bloody braver man than me mate Haha. yea something was moving round camp and I could also hear you snoring 😂 I bet whatever it was it was like "what the bleedin hell is that racket" great content pal, really enjoyed this video.
The audio recorder is very sensitive and it may have picked up the sound of a small animal close to the microphone or footsteps of something much larger further away, I'll never know but when I'm there it freaks me out if I think too much about it
@@Fell_Wanderer yea I would be exactly the same mate. my mind would wander onto really creepy things and i would probably cry. 🤣✌
Regarding the noises around the camp, heavy-sounding thump at 17:30, then it sounds ike either birds wings flapping or a small mammal struggling.
Going off my field recordings, most sounds of bird activity is easily identified at dawn, such as pigeons flapping wings etc.. Birds roosting can be startled by me through the night. I realise most of my audio recordings are likely natural, other than the human like voices I've also recorded which defly explaination in my humble opinion.
@@Fell_Wanderer Agreed.
Nice one 👍
Hi Damian great Forrest of doom ,what was floating behind your head at the end of the filming minute 27.50 maybe just the light
I think it was spider silk from a web hanging off my camera tripod glistening in the sunlight, atb
So weird because is so silent and is not alike nature grows up. It is modern 'Green Deserts" based only in owner's and or contractor's benerits, any animal spieces like to live there but a bunch of bugs. Nice video mate! ATB.
09:57 I thought someone was standing there
Nat93 same tbh that scared the hell out of me for a second 😂
Shit it does look like someone
that is a large footprint my friend, we have some paranormal spots here in Ohio
Ah did a bit 'o resarch on the Wild Nocturnal Geordie Sasquatch......a canny lad, but still got no positive ID or the likelihood of finding one.....
Great vid mate can you give me the location thinking about a winter camp there looks interesting,cheers kris
Its Harwood forest in Northumberland
The glowing red eyes could be natural, some night-birds eyes glow red in the dark so perhaps some mammal's eyes do too.
The night audio clip was quite interesting, pity you did not have a trail cam set up in your camp...
I didn't take one on this occasion as it never picks anything up usually. Sods law on the first time I didn't bring it something was heard creeping around, atb
"Lips and eyebrows"! LOL! That's what I refer to as beaks and toenails. LOL!
What do you think it was around camp in early hours? Fox?
Not sure what is was. A fox or deer would avoid coming into contact with humans, Sounds like the foliage was being moved when something passed through and the branches are way off the ground and a short animal would be more stealthy so its a mystery
Pat on the back there mate. Took some balls camping alone there. An I don't mean aldi meatballs 👍🏻👍🏻
I'm always taking Power Bars and terrible simple food. Next time I'm taking a can of raviolis. Also terrible but at least it's not a protein bar.
