My granddad was a CPT in the North Vietnam army during the height of the war. When I was a kid, he told me countless stories of paranormal/supernatural stuff happening in the jungle and even in more "peaceful" towns that rarely saw combat. To this day, some of which still scare the shit out of me. Sadly, he passed away in 2020 and I couldn't get back home due to the pandemic. I would've traded a lot to listen to more stories from him again. RIP granddad.
I am an American in my 40s. My parents are from the jungles and hills of Laos. They relocated to the US after the Vietnam war. As a kid my parents, aunts and uncles would tell us stories of serpent humanoids disguised as humans (mostly as women) dressed in fancy gold dresses to lure men who are away from home and bring them to their underwater caverns.
in Papua New Guinea in the remotest part of Hela Province we have a living legend whom is currently alive to this day! he married a snake women and had a child with her lizard humanoid. he was given a lucky cham gift to have in this world. he explain that there world was under the water and cities made of diamond and gold.
@@flamedmahoganytable9749 sadly you dont. but it is one of many stories which exist in my country because most part of our country is uninhabitable and remotest. but i swear if you happen to come to Papua New Guinea their will always be any one with their stories of their province and district.
We have stories in India of these creatures being called as Nagas ( Snake like humanoids) and their realm is called Naaglok which is under the earth crust. The term Naga ( Singular) origins from Nag ( meaning Snake) and they are deemed as Magical mythical creatures with shape shifting abilities.
Yes in the Uk we have these lizard people called the Slow worm folk or the ophisaurus blokes & if you venture into the woods sometimes you can hear them in the distance playing their bongo drums. In the Uk they are much shorter, perhaps about 5ft 3' & they don't glow anymore because of the rise in Marmite pollution. I tried to catch one but the end of his tail fell off & he ran away, I think he hissed "ya can't catch me, yippeedy dee!!" Which may be an old leprechaun saying.
Indo-American Game Dev/network data security engineer here, I based my game's lore (WIP) around indian mythology and culture, and I've done a metric Fu*k ton of research for it. We also have stories of a war with the Naags, dating back to around the 8th century, only briefly spoken about in the Vedas and the Gita. According to what I've been able to piece together in the past 6 years from various sources and scripts: There was once a sinkhole in modern-day Nagaland, and (I believe it was the during the Sena dynasty) from it, poured out thousands of reptilian humanoid beings with spears and lances. A war started, lasted about 40 years. We "won" and drove them out of the region altogether, which pushed them into the jungles to the southeast, and then collapsed the sinkhole completely. One author surmised that this was the original cause for the clash between (then) India and China.
My father served in Vietnam and he told a story about one of the soldiers opening fire on one of those snake demons and that the blood that came out of it was blue. My father never seen anything like this but said there was a well known story of soldiers coming into contact with them.
@@BringDHouseDown So you're saying my father never heard a story, while you are on TH-cam listening to a story. Like you said get the f--k out of here, reading comprehension is your friend, learn it.
Aw man, don’t like creepy Vietnam stuff but I’m here for your work. Literally bugs that crawled Into people, giant crocs, and when you get home people treat you like absolute dirt. God bless our vets from Vietnam 😢
In Iraq, I saw ‘shadow people’ who did not show up on scopes or NODs, and only could be seen with the naked eye. They were darker than the darkness of the moonless night. They weren’t threatening (and, we had just lost a soldier and friend) so I always attributed it as him, pulling one last guard shift with me.
@@NareshKumar-gv2rd it’s just that, they had depth, volume and a real presence to them. (There were other incidents, even one with multiple witnesses) and, they weren’t the ‘typical’ misty phantoms that most people report.
@@brockdavid I swear I don't know where you people come up with these stories. I've served for years in the infantry, been through stuff, never seen anything remotely supernatural.
Unfashionably late to the party, but this episode really hit me because my dad and uncle both served in Vietnam and maybe it was partly because my uncle didn't come home, but my dad would never talk about it. I have so many questions that I will never get answers to because he's been gone a little over a year and even before he actually passed, dementia destroyed his mind. So anyhow, thank you for this. It has helped my heart heal a little. 💚
I am very sorry about your father, as I lost my own grandfather (Korean war vet) to a stroke, which left him brain-dead for a year. He was the only other servicemember in my immediate family (a Marine, no less). Having someone you love and losing them at the same time is somehow even more heartbreaking. As for the war itself, for as much (or perhaps as little) as I've read about Vietnam specifically, I have a better understanding now of why many men chose not to speak about their experiences. Misplaced guilt, being one of the many reasons. Many of them were put into situations none of us would choose to be, and then treated like monsters by ignorant people who wanted to throw stones and had no understanding of their experiences. Many men like your father may have only ever shared their experiences during an interview for one of the many books and films made, or in the company of fellow war vets, rather than sharing them with their family who they neither wished to traumatize or burden with the tragedies they witnessed. I've since made it a habit to say "welcome home" to any man I see wearing a Vietnam veteran cap.
@@WartimeStories Thank you so much 💚 now I'm crying lol. My dad was a Marine and I was always proud of that but I felt he wasn't and actually this sounds silly, but when I first watched Rambo it broke my heart and I just knew Rambo had PTSD before it was recognized. I think a lot more people have it than feel they can admit it. I'm sorry about your grandfather. It does make it harder when you feel like you lose them twice. 💔 Thank you, for everything. You are very appreciated!!
Im so sorry for your suffering... We all kind of suffer alone, together... I'm in my 50's and just found out that my real dad was a friend of the family but no one ever told me. He was also a Vietnam Vet. Life is weird.... 🤗 Praying for you... Love from Texas! ✌🤠💕🙏
they dont like to talk about murdering women and children in the rice fields because uncle corporate profit told them too. helluva thing to sell your soul.
I was a teenager in the 70's and had a friend who taught me to play guitar. He was a Special Forces soldier in Viet-Nam and after a while he started talking to me about things he had seen and done. One of his stories was running up on these creatures while searching a cave system for a VC weapons dump during an intel gathering party circle jerk, as he described it. I honestly thought he was pulling my leg, but I just smiled and listened. The world is a strange place, I just didn't know it then.
Great grandfather fought the Indochina war in the 1950's, it was France's own vietnam war, and back then there were already stories about lizard folks living into hollow hills and coming at night to take the bodies of soldiers and civilians killed during combat
@@juliehealingleaf6211 Personally, I don't think so. My bet is on surviving hominid (Denisovan, possibly). I think bigfoots/yetis/kandahar giants are pretty humane. They seem to be quite close to us humans, just more primitive. They're just minding their business trying not to be erradicated. Shapeshifters, on the other hand... I don't think it's unfair to assume they're evil.
Ahh, yes, fellow human. We all love being humans here, haha! I love spending time with my fellow humans, eating food and drinking drinks. It's really great to be a human, haha!
when I was growing up, ah classmate (who lived next to me) father was a Vietnam Vet. he told us stories not to different from this one. It messed him up and he sadly died from drinking. but the lizard man was one of them. Though not of the cave incident mention. he had run into strange creatures 2 other times. To all our service men and women Thank you !!
Reports of tall lizards were reported in Los Angeles under the city and encounters above. There have also been reports in desert caves in US Saying "thank you" to US soldiers being used as cannon fodder is pretty outrageous. Every US war since vietnam was based on monumental lies. Virtually the entire US political establishment carried out treason . The people who thank the soldiers become accessories to that treason by their sanctioning the lies of the war and using the soldiers as cannon fodder.. The russian political establishment invasion of Ukraine was built on lies. These are acts of treason using the soldeirs as cannon fodder. Sadly, most russians sanction the lies and treason. Not much different than most americans. A political mindset that lives by mafia ethics and morality dominates every major country.
My condolences for their loss. Its a hard thing to deal with BUT this is the way it plays out. My symphaties to them! I'm sure he was a great guy! GOD BLESS HIM , GOD BLESS ALL OF US ! Godspeed on to you! PEACE! American Natives saw al ot of this in The NAM! Bless them too!
Wow! You have just completely freaked me out. I was born in 61. My brother was twelve years older than me. When I was around 26 years old he told me of a creature very similar to what you just described when he was in Nam. He expressed to me not to mention any of this with his name for obvious reasons. I forgot all about it as the year's went by. He passed away a few ago. Then I watch this video.
Can confirm. My one and only story that I can not explain away. I was working as the chief engineer aboard LYNX. A reproduction of a 1812 privateer. It would of been about 5 years ago now so around 2018. We had left Brunswick Georgia bound for key west. We were about 1/2 day into the trip. I wish I could remember where we were but somewhere in north Florida. Ether way about 100 miles south of Brunswick Georgia. We were maybe 5-7 miles offshore. The distance where you can’t really see buildings unless they are huge but you can see the glow of city’s. We were sailing heading almost due south. Anyone who’s been on a sailing vessel offshore knows how quiet it is. I was standing the 0000-0400 watch. The seas were maybe 8-10’ on a long period. Our ship was 122’. Our ship being relatively small when you would go into a swell you would just see ocean around you. Around 0200 off our starboard beam I saw a red light. The light was between us and shore definitely closer to shore than us. But the light was small and I initially believed it to be a side light. But soon it disappeared. Not thinking anything of it I didn’t log it or notify anyone… but 5 minutes later I saw it again. Then it disappeared. Then 5 or so minutes later… again. This probably happened 4-5 times. Then I grabbed the binoculars because I was so curious. I stared in the bearing of the light. Eventually. BOOM I saw a red light shoot up then hover in the air before slowly disappearing. “Oh fuck” I thought. A red parachute flare. Someone is in trouble. I immediately woke up the captain and he came on deck. I explained the situation and we both observed the light. I was told to contact the coast guard. I called over vhf and went threw the bla bla bla of explaining. They then told us that we were should attempt to assist. We spent the better part of 20 minutes turning to starboard and we’re heading towards the bearing I spotted the light last. Making 6 or so knots it would take us the better part of an hour to get on scene. Not 5 minutes later the coast guard called the sat phone on the ship. I had gave them my number to follow up. The person on the other end of the phone said something to the effect of “do not assist. Proceed south. Do not get closer. Do not go to assist” I thought. Well they are on scene. They don’t need us. But the atmosphere of the phone call was off. It felt weird. But hey. We are off the hook of trying to assist. In my mind I thought oh it’s just some drunk guy shooting flairs or something. So we fell off and proceeded south. About 10 minutes after… From the direction where I was observing the flairs… the brightest blue light appears. And I don’t mean like a police light. It lit up the night. A dull blue. Almost white at the source. I don’t know how to explain it. It was a cloudy night. It lit up the bottom of the clouds. It was very unsettling seeing every cloud lit upside down. The water was lit too. It made the water glow. I don’t mean a point of light. It was just bright. Maybe brighter than the day. The ocean was glowing. I could see down into the normally black water. Then after this happened for maybe 30 seconds but felt like a life time. A blue light shot up. Like up to space. The best I can describe it is like those pillars in a halo game that shoot blue lights up. Then it was dark again Everyone observed it on deck. And we all just said wtf. It was so strange none of us knew what to say. The fucked up thing is the next day. 8 hours later on my 1200-1600 watch we watched a space x launch and it was nothing like what I observed the night before which is the only thing I could think of. The rocket took a couple minutes to get out of sight. That blue light was maybe 2-4 seconds before it was gone.
Sorry this was meant to be in the all ships are haunted video. I’m now serving in the coast guard and have heard a few stories at the smoke pit. If you ever do another video on boats I would love to help.
@@moneydosanjh8744 hey sorry for the slow response. We would rarely have our phones on us while on watch. Combination of the captain didn’t want the distraction / 99% of the time you arnt getting a cell signal out there anyways. The light only lasted for about 20-30 seconds so even if I went running for my phone it would of taken too long. Wish I had a video of it though. I’ve seen one other video of something very similar ether here or on Instagram. I’ll see if I can find it.
Just found your channel. HOLY CRAP YOUR PRODUCTION IS INSANE. Your scripts are incredibly well written, your story telling tone is perfect for this. Not to mention creating re-enactments and voice acting. You found your calling bro.
These Vietnam stories give me chills, my late uncle served there during the war. He started out in the infantry but transferred to driving supply trucks, where one of the things he transported was Agent Orange. He passed away from cancer a couple of years ago on the 4th of July, as my aunt said "he had his Independence Day." RIP Uncle Tom Anderson.
My uncle is in the hospital now passing away from complications of agent orange.. I’m 58 and am just now finding out he was in Vietnam.. it was NEVER mentioned once that I recall during my childhood
@@sherribreeden1906 My uncle didn't mention much about his time in Vietnam. One Veterans Day he told me he drove trucks out of Quảng Trị, and the last time he was in for a visit (about a year before he passed) he told me a little bit more. I pray that your uncle's passing is as peaceful and painless as possible, that he doesn't have to suffer further.
That should tell you how much your government cares about you. They knew agent orange would eventually kill our precious vets and they had to fight another war at home to get it recognized as what gave them cancer and other symptoms. In desert storm they used depleted uranium rounds that affected our troops and many civilians. I'm sad to say that an even worse government is about to draft most of our youth to fight a world war against Russia, China, and North Korea plus others. Learn to enjoy every day that you have here before the madness takes over.
This was well done, thanks. My older brother was a Marine in The Nam...he told me once, during a firefight, he noticed a dark huge triangle craft slowly drifting overhead, as if watching...his LT told him to be quiet about it.
I think it is easy for modern humans to forget that for tens of thousands of years we were just as likely to be the hunted as the hunters. That environment shaped our brains, instincts and responses to danger even today. So when I look out into a forest or jungle and the hairs on the back of my neck stand up I don't think how safe I am and how there is nothing there, I wonder what that is out there that created that response in me. Our bodies are telling us that there are things out there we must fear and it is incredible hubris to think that there is not. And it' a tribute to your storytelling that your voice and a series of still illustrations bring out those feelings. Well done.
I started listening to Art Bell is 1991 just when he started transitioning from politics to the paranormal. He did a great job of not judging but just listening and allowing the callers or guests to tell their stories. Your doing a good job of continuing his legacy. Thank you
There is a podcast called SOG cast with John"Tilt" Meyer and an episode with a former green beret called Nick Brokhausen which I was listening to recently and he started into telling a story from one of his missions in the Vietnamise jungle when he was accompanied by indigenous team members. These team members were well respected for their knowledge of the land and field craft in the jungles, also these specific team members on this mission were well known to Nick and he mentioned how cool calm and collected they normally were. However on this mission he commented how throughout they constantly were asking him to leave because of the "snake people" in this area and generally acting extremely agitated. He also noted how there were no north Vietnamese in the area (which if you've listened to any SOG stories is unusual, they normally involve combat) and the indigenous team members again told him this and it was because of the "snake people". Nick told the story in a very matter of fact fashion and didn't seem to have an opinion about it one way or the other. Anyway just thought Id share that as it gave me chills having remembered watching this video months before and now having a weird corroboration of stories lol, go check the podcast out if you are interested it was really good. I think the story comes up almost an hour in.
That is chilling I believe the indigenous people. I have researched this type of thing for a while now I believe they are real and were here before us. I don't think its a coincidence people have a reptilian part of the brain.
they were referring to the naga people. Ancient Vietnamese and Thai people have centuries long friendly relationships with them up until the turn of 20th century where all contact was severed or lost.
I truly cannot understand why this channel doesn't have WAY more subscribers. I love the narrators voice, the well researched stories (most of which I'm not aware of despite being a paranormal nerd), and obviously the artwork is spectacular. BRAVO!
It's gonna be getting hundreds of thousands of views per video in a year or less. All it takes is the first initial subscriber bump and then dedication to uploads and you are near guaranteed hundreds of thousands of views on documentary style content
Bedtime Stories and Wartime Stories are two of my favorite TH-cam channels. I cannot imagine what military personnel have seen or experienced during wartime or deployment anywhere outside their comfort zone. Especially in Vietnam. Which out of all the wars, is probably the most bizarre to ever have happened due to its location. Thick dark jungle. Just like the vast mountains of Afghanistan. I love this shit.
Maybe the real reason America got into the Vietnam napalming and bombing the jungle over there is because they were really at war with these alien creatures.
@@toldyouso5588 Nah, the real reason was they hated us smoking up all the Ganja good good and shooting up all the opium from the Golden Triangle Region in our forearms and between the toes . . They failed
If you are wartime story buff, try watching "THE OBJECTIVE" , real story set in wilderness of Khandhahar mountains, Afghanistan. Especially the last scene.....superb direction. Hat's off to all the crew.
There is an Indigenous author, a professor called Ardy Sixkiller Clarke. She collected true stories from various indigenous tribal members. In one of her books, Space Age Indians, she interviews a few ex-military men regarding their strange experiences in Vietnam. They too encountered reptilian beings. Her books are incredible and well worth getting. The true tales are mind blowing
@sarahjh3594 Thanks for the tip! Always looking out for true tales, especially the Lizards. Idkw but I am fascinated with them, heard some unbelievable stories regarding these beings. The ones saying they saw them are extremely nervous, freaked out and insist that they looked exactly like lizards, that is what they saw.
As native that live those area, there been cases of these happening during those time. Grandparents had long been telling about dragon/reptilian humanoid being taking human and iron apehumanoid where gun cannot penetrated with modern gun/war gun
Do she know anything about how local authorities deal with those creatures ? If those things were bold enough to be move around in a warzone then sightings during peace time should be much more common.

Being a bit older of the Gen X generation I listened to Art Bell and Coast to Coast regularly. If you enjoy the paranormal and strang listen if you can. Art passed in 2018 and had retired from the show earlier but can be interesting to listen. Great episode as always. Blessed Be from Tennessee. )O(
Isn't his wife of some Asian decent? Hmm ... got the wheels in my head spring. is she perhaps the daughter of someone in their intelligence or elite ruling class?
My dad and I listened to Art Bell, Art died a little over a year after my dad, which affected me more than I thought it would. But I do listen to some of the classics from time to time.
My boss was a helicopter mechanic and when they would take them out after repairing and he said he seen large snakes 40’ long so anything’s possible, great story 👍🏻😎
You would’ve liked the story that this narrator told awhile back on War Time Stories. It was about some U.S. soldiers who were in a tropical jungle(I think they were in South America) and they saw a massive constricting snake that the locals called “EL Diablo.” The soldiers witnessed seeing this giant snake killing livestock for food.
@@roxanneweichinger9318 ohhhhhhhhhhh i have this one clicked into a tab waiting to finish some others i have cued... i was trying to ponder what that one might be about but im jumping to it right now!!!! thats so funny, a big ass snake was the last thing i could come up w not that it doesnt make sense but i figure it was more paranormal or cryptid but this sounds crazy... snakes the big ones scare the hell outta me like that inner fear they say monkeys seem to show in the way they kill any and every snake within a mile of them even ones that pose no danger and are tiny they just grab them and smack em on the ground dont even eat them, so they must have a deep inner fear of the times when a BIG snake popped up outta nowhere and gobbeled someone up in their DNA memories... i just think about those massive 20 30 40 ft snakes you see in documentaries or ppl have as pets, i mean 20 is really the max but they have caught big ass pythons in florida that push the 20 over/under line especailly the females since they gotta fatten up for the winter and having babies females get the longest too... i just think how quick they are when they arent tired and ppl try to catch the big ones they wrap them up FAST and need help getting untangled, imagine a snake that takes out livestock like cows, because the big 15-20ft ones can gobble a deer no problem and that is kinda an awkward animal if it has antlers but with the legs too... a HUMAN shittttttt no matter what they pick feet or head we are litterally a cylinder shape going down probably wouldnt even need to break open its jaw... if "el diablo" was taking down lets say a cow, my god!!!! like i said i have that innate fear monkeys must have because i can just picture that massive head pushing thru some vegetation or me walking into the path of its den or it stalking me and lunging FUCKKK i dont have that with sharks or tigers or other ovbious "maneaters" but a big snake sends fear shooting thru me which must mean at one point just like monkeys our long long long ago ancestors were regularly encountering or evading BIGGG monster snakes because that image of it approaching and the fear that comes with it seems to be burned into my core brain whatever and ive never even had an encounter with one like that the only time is seeing that stuff on TV shows and holding a 13ft boa at school but that thing was as nice as could be ive had worse encounters with dogs and cats LOL... a wild hungry 50foot python from hundreds of years ago AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH im running until i pass out from exhaustion and then if i miracusly dont get found and eaten wehn i wake up im running again LOL
I have devoured A LOT of stories like these over the years, just because it fascinates me, and lizard people seem to be one of 2 options: 1) Lizard-like aliens that can disguise themselves as humans, infiltrating our society. 2) A native lizard-like species from Earth that live in vast underground cities (some even say hollow earth) and kind of stay out of the way of humans. Can't wait to hear more! I just love the coziness of listening to these stories after work :)
Yep. Some people even say that tons of older civilizations live underground basically via the pattern of getting sufficiently advanced then getting pelted by the sun (or other cosmic disaster). These advanced civilizations take off underground where they can avoid calamities from the surface world. Or another interesting take I just heard of was that they are physically manifest demons (along with grays possibly). TH-cam Archons or such and look for the first or second David Icke video. He's a bit much but still a fun watch
@@Trollamollex Yes, the more I hear about ghosts, aliens and cryptids, the more they seem to be related and possibly the same thing. Question is: which one are they? Pretty fun and spooky to think about. The ancient civilizations have more solid proof to have existed. Heck even giants. I have heard from multiple sources stories about red-haired cannibal giants that ate humans in native America.
It is both, there are Reptilians living in the Inner Earth (which is more like HoneyComb Earth not Hollow Earth) and they have been referred to as the Naga. But there are also Raptors that live underground. And then there are the Alpha Draconians that have been on and off the Planet for thousands of years and most likely seeded the Dinosaurs as a Reptilian Genetic Experiment. And the Draco created the Controlled Modern Society we have today with all the Draconian Laws and Rituals. Reptilians are known to have the ability to Shapeshift and Camouflage themselves beyond the abilities of the Chameleon. I believe that it was the Draco (and the Naga were a Draco Contingent that stayed on the Planet and went underground) that gave rise to all the Reptilian Gods in different Cultures, and the Draco and Dinosaurs that gave rise to Legends of Winged Dragons.
Why not both??? It makes more sense that reptile-like aliens would come from the only planet we know of that has reptiles. Check out the Silurian Hypothesis that posits humans are not the first species on this planet to have an industrial revolution
Regarding the reason why Vietnamese people avoid going too deep into these jungle, it's because there's an idiom that has passed within our culture for generations. "Rừng thiên, nước độc" which literally mean "divine jungle, poisonous water". These area is believed to be home to powerful ancient spirit that can easily end your life if they're angered (which is true btw, call me crazy all you want, I saw people driven mad after they accidentally poke random rock in the jungle before. The hospital couldn't figure out the reason as well) So, those who dare to overstay their welcome in the jungle will likely to die. Plus it was keep as national park, so no large machinery allowed and without machinery supports, no one want to and stupid enough to venture deep inside.
@@fidanzajuan5506 this happens all around the world, why all the national parks in the US and canada have high count of people disappearances? We are not alone on this planet and there are places where those creatures have nests or some call it "underground bases" beautiful wild areas, people should learn by shutting their ego that these creatures also demand respect and if someone comes littering, acting loud or hunting in their area first there's warning and if they ignore it they disappear.
The color is beautifully done, and the "Skully" patch on the PBR gunner's shoulder was an awesome touch! Another outstanding story, another outstanding video. Thanx so much for all the hard work y'all put in. You've got a great channel here, I love it!
O Brian talked about how weird and spooky Vietnam was in “the things they carry” He talked about listening posts that stayed there too long and started hearing sounds in the jungle. Not the normal sounds but the sounds of like glass klinking, and laughter like at a dinner party. Or fog that seemed to appear out of nowhere and the shapes that seemed to come out it
The Vietnam jungles are, too this day, very mysterious, and unexplored. There is an extremely rare species of antelope named Saola that live in those jungles. One hasn't been seen in years, but they have been seen and documented. If the jungles can hide those animals, what else can they hide?
Not only is it massive and untouched but it can't even be properly explored, such thick shrub and vegitstions and valleys and peaks and unforgiving storms which can really come out of no where.
Another thing jungles easily hide are ancient cities. I know in the last 20 years there have been at least 2 or 3 large ones found, and some people have been looking for them at great risk to themselves with combination of satellite pictures, talking to locals, and walking the jungle. Where it has overtaken where people used to be is only traversable by foot or boat. The mountaneous areas are the most arduous to travel, but to be honest looking for artifacts is easier than strange creatures as sometimes we leave things we want people to find like tombs or giant shaped rocks. I did see an instance where the locals did not allow them to take the river to their destination. People live in the jungle who seldom meet or share what they know to people who live outside. Not all of them want to talk to outsiders.
Hearing you mention son doong really made me lose my mind. I was in phong nha earlier this year and was alone riding around the roads besides the jungle on my motorbike when I arrived at the entrance point for the hike to the cave. The hike itself is apparently a full days journey through the jungle. I walked for about 4 hours before becoming increasingly anxious of my surroundings. I could hear the crunching of branches as if I was being approached and I have never felt more like I was being observed in my life. I worked myself up into a frenzy and literally ran at a full sprint back the way I came (which was all the way up a steep muddied hill). Even once I got back onto the road where my bike was I still frenzied and I rode off as fast as possible. I understand that it’s natural to be paranoid in the jungle, especially when alone, but that wasn’t my first time exploring the jungle out there in vietnam and what I felt there was a different type of fear. Going into the jungle like that alone is stupid for so many reasons and I have had a few other sketchy experiences out there with running into some jungle people but all in all I’m grateful to have experienced it all. We’re not given the opportunity to feel that primal fear in today’s society, it’s horrible yet humbling. I don’t know what to think of reptilian people, especially when they’re described as humanoid but I do believe that anything could be out there in cave systems that vast, let alone in the jungles.
@@marciestoddard730 @olivercheeseman8227 are you guys expatriates/tourists/citizens of Vietnam? Have your native friends mentioned anything about the urban legends?
These are my favorite types of stories, strange creatures/cryptids/paranormal stuff witnessed by military personnel and soldiers. I’ve always heard that soldiers are more reputable when it comes to saying this stuff happened, because they have to take so many other factors into consideration, before they come to the conclusion that it was paranormal. Keep it coming and great job!!!
@@spideybuildscars Nothing exciting, on the USS Boxer we had at least 2 ghosts. One due to a man falling to his death and one due a suicide. Fun stuff.
Im prone to taking it not so seriously comibg from sokdiers who are often terrified, sleep deprived and durinf this time intoxicated..leading to psychotuc episodes.
NEVER GET OFF THE BOAT! My Uncle Zane always told me that. He was Brown Water Navy on a PBR doing patrols on the Bassac River Patrol Sector 513. He told me some insane stories over the years. My Uncle Butch was with the 9th infantry in the Mekong Delta. Both of them had some really interesting stories.
Excellent video! Very interesting, if i could add my two cents, I lived and worked in Quang Binh province for 4 years, worked extensively around Phong Nha, saw these caves and yes, local people talk about these creatures and say they live in the caves, the thing is there are a number of rather large caves in the area, the jungle in Phong Nha is very thick a very large part is a protected area not just anyone can go into the park you need to get permission, another thing is, there is proof that these caves are connected to caves in Laos! i was told by one of the British team who originally explored the caves that they suspected this and actually traveled to Laos and found caves in Laos that they thought might connect to the Soong Dong cave system, they found a river in this cave and put dye into it, this dye did show up in the Phong Nha cave system
Wow. I hope as drone tech becomes more sophisticated we might actually be able to explore some of these places without having to worry about people losing their lives.
just discovered this channel. its incredible. I read a similar story online, although not validated by the veteran himself. But his grandson said he was a tunnel rat, and upon exploration of one tunnel system with another comrade, they discovered something eerily similar to the third cave story. Reptilians in robes, but were participating in a ceremony of some sorts in a hazy, odorous hollow.
I’ve heard that story too. Look up “theleaf tales from Vietnam”, it has that story along with a few other crazy ones, although the glowing reptilian cave ceremony was the craziest.
@@Wamrage76 no, a random user on a message board. They wrote it out before this was ever posted. Could've been inspired by this story if they read it elsewhere.
My grandfather was in thai army that patrol Thai/Loa border during Vietnam War. He doesn't talk much about it. But he really scared of large body of water but I don't really know why until 6-5 year before he pass away from lung cancer. That he scared of fish like person dra people under water. And this story remind me of him.
It's not naga, It's called เงือก it's some kind of malevolent female alike spirit which lives in any large body of water. They're literally SEA version of Siren. They are well-knowned for like drowning the people with unfortunate luck to thier death.
Do you know anything about the pee that drink blood and can come into out realm through music, guitar chords. My Thai teacher mention this in class so could not get her to go into deatail. A Thai Catholic prirst told me hes never hesrd the story but he was not a spirital person if you know what i mean.
I know many vets from this war.. thank you for the stories... my father is veteran from both the Korean and Vietnamese war.. he's telling me strange stories now that he is in his nineties!
I'm a Marine, in QuangNam Provence Vietnam i had several strange encounters, very strange encounters. I was in the valley of dragons, we were led there by our Cótu sure-foot scout. First cave we come across Pvt. Gutierrez has the honors, a few seconds into the cave he starts unloading his M16 but semi-auto rapid fire. He comes out gasping about the fxxxing dragon, and there was a 16' stocky beaded lizard build lizard, very dead, Gutierrez killed it. We went into the valley a bit farther,,,but we turned around to make it out before dark. It was weird though, you could tell there were other lizards out there looking, maybe stalking us.😊 Our little sure-foot scout smiled when we returned to the pass, he just smiled that big ol i told ya so smile with his black bettlenut stained teeth, we all kind of chuckled, except Pvt Gutierrez, he just "main giant ass man eating lizard" and wondering if he would get a purple heart if he gets eaten by something, like a big fing lizard,,,
This humanoid reptileon being story reminds me of what my brother said to me few years back when he had one of his out of body kind experience. At that time, i brushed it off but because of these stories, i asked him again about his encounter with these creatures. He said these humanoid reptileon beings are about 7 feet tall. He encountered 2 types of the humanoid reptileon beings, one green (more terrifying looks and still sending chills to his body when he thinks about it) and the other is blue ( a slightly better look than the green one).He said these beings doesn't posed any danger. These creatures told my brother that they are in the brink of extinction and are on the run from another gray beings (now this makes me feel really uncomfortable and like an idiot for stating this out loud here).
I like this channel much better than the standard bedtime stories channel, I've always had a fascination with war and the supernatural/ unexplained and this one gives us both at the same time
There are myths about snake-like beings in numerous places in Asia. I’m put in mind of the Naga of India. There is perhaps a kernel of truth under all the storytelling. I came here after a crossover episode with Bedtime Stories. It’s been a very interesting while here, and I’m pleased to be here. Thanks for your amazing work.
@@RonSafreed I just remembered the Scape Ore Swamp monster out of South Carolina US, which was described as reptilian. I’m going to need to look into those stories from South America.
Guys I can assure you 100% guaranteed that reptilian humanoid beings are absolutely real and have been around much longer than human beings in terms of their origins and existence. This Planet Earth we live on that humanity in general seems to think is ours like we own it or something due to being the most intelligent and successful species of the many that inhabit and occupy it is actually completely false believe it or not. From my own research these reptilian beings claim to be the originators and true natives of the planet and have been mostly living subterranean deep below humanity's feet in complete underground city's that have tunnels interconnected throughout the whole planet where there are also many other types of beings living down there. It sounds crazy I know but trust me there is a shed load of documented accounts recorded throughout the ages that speak about humans interacting with these reptilian beings and mostly about how humanity worshipped them as though they were gods.
My grandfather was a general in WW2 commanding a guerilla unit against the Pons in the jungles of Philippines and told us stories about this giant snake that has been terrorizing his men. I forgot most of the story but they never caught the snake and at least 70 soldiers died said to have been eaten by the damn giant snake
While doing a tour in Iraq, we witnessed what we called “the ghost chopper”. We heard a loud sound, like a buzzing mixed with droning, and we looked up and saw a chinook transport chopper engulfed in flames, just chugging through the sky. No bodies could be seen, it just kept flying by, burning and belching smoke so thick you couldn’t see inside or any recognizable markings. Command never got any confirmation of any nearby aircraft in distress, a strange encounter I can’t even hope to explain.
Sounds like it was probably some kind of covert ops things. I can’t repeat details but I was when I was In rehab years ago a veteran pilot in our support group broke down one day talking about the things they had him do. One thing he mentioned was the fear he felt because they had them flying missions to a country near Iraq that we apparently weren’t supposed to be in and if they were to be shot down or attacked there would be absolutely no support or rescue able to help them. I’m sure a lot of sketchy stuff went on over there.
I once was two "gost planes" WW2 winged propellor type, totally grey, flying over my valley and one of them disappeared straight into the hillside...if it was a real plane it should have crashed and exploded but it just disappeared like a hologram.
This story was awesome! I've been waiting for some good reptilian type stories that were actually documented. Everything about these creatures are creepy. Excellent work!
The third story is certainly the weirdest one because it seems to point to the idea that the Lizards have a somewhat advanced society going on. They have complex cutting tools to carve out their caves and even clothing that they wear "around the house" as it were. I also noticed that it seemed to be the only one where they weren't glowing. So either aliens, or there are seperate tribes that reside in the same area.
Also if cutting tools is one thing to consider but where did they get the clothing. Making cloth isn't easy by any means. Even if it's leather, it has to be produced. A naked snake being is much more believable than one with clothing.
See Lacerta Files, it will help explain a bit about how Earth originally was resided for tens of millions of years by the descendants of the Dinosaurs now called Saurins and they were forced to live in underground cavern cities after they fought off bad off-world aliens during the so-called Orion Wars that had creep into our solar system and onto planet Earth. The Saurins are benign reptilian like specie which I suspect the first reptoids in this video was about them because the finger description is similar to what the Saurin named Lacerta said in the interview which she explained the Iguanadon dinosaur hand is really taken from a fossilized hand of her distant ancestor. The Saurins are still alive in their underground cities and have been helping us fight the bad aliens who had enslaved us (Orion Dracos and ancient humans called Abraxans) for past decade which our Earth human ambassador to the Saurins and 35 other local alien species is named Kimberly Goguen. Kimberly has done many interviews, podcasts, and continually give out intel situation reports about the world and beyond at her news website called United Network News.
Somehow this video was recommended to me by TH-cam and I can say I was hooked up to the story for the next twenty minutes. The amount of creativity used by the creator to generate a first hand spooky encounter of the creatures is spectacular. I must laud you for your work and you got a subscriber.
A dear friend of mine, an army vet who did multiple tours in Vietnam, recently passed away. The stories he shared with me were terrifying unforgettable. I can’t begin to imagine how many secrets he went to the Great Beyond with. Rest easy Mark. I miss you terribly. Until we all meet again 🩵✨
Back then there wasn't an openness to share things I have someone in his 60s or 70s actually at the time he was like it's 50s but he was so happy to be able to tell his story for not having fear of being put away like they used to in the olden days his other friend did tell people and they put them away and so a lot of people just didn't get to talk about things and that wasn't good for their psychology.
I wonder how much is due to hallucinations from being overly tired. In basic, we were out for 4 days and I only slept for 4 hours in that entire time. By the third night, I saw two human-like forms floating through the forest towards me and they had a shine around them. I immediately reported it to my sergeant since I was the alarm post. He came and looked and told me there was nothing. Later on, I saw a black fox chasing its tail. Once the sun came up I noticed it was a large tree stump that just seemed to be moving.
I am a Navy brat and Navy wife. My father was in Viet Nam three times. He had so.e stories of things he saw that most people wouldn't believe. My father. He wouldn't talk about the things he saw. He had a haunted look to his eyes. When i came home from college, he said letsgo out to the 20:00 We walked out, and he said he had to tell someone, and he knew i could handle it and would believe him. He didn't want to scare my mom or sisters. He told me the things he saw when he had to go into the interior with some of his mechanics to work on aircraft. everything from these things, to giants and what they called "rock apes." I believed him. Years later as a Navy wife I heard of the "lizard people who are supposed to live near Cheyenne Mountain. I have since moved to the mountains of North Carolina. I was warned to avoid the Mammoth Cave system which runs from North Carolina up to Maine. Most of this system has not been explored. There are many unknown entrances and many stories of the "lizard people" who come out at night. Some areas you do not go out at night. The Appalachian Mountains are some of the oldest on Earth. There are many strange things here.
Im not sure if you traded up on your move or not lol, I was born and raised near Asheville and have been collecting stories and folk tales from the Appalachians that goes back to long before the white settlement of the land and although I have never heard a lizard man report closer than coastal SC there are quite a few other cryptids said to reside in these mountains, some are quite unpleasant, I myself am more worried about sirens (or mimics) that disguise themselves as people needing help luring people into the woods never to be seen again, or grabbing them from the water and dragging them in only to drown them. As long as you know and obey the rules of the forest you will have no problems though.
I found this very interesting and wonderfully creepy. The fact that the mountain cave had remained hidden (at least from the masses) for so long makes it easier to believe an unknown creature resides there. Thanks for presenting this story.
Loved this episode, never heard of the first 2 stories or the caver one either. There's definitely something about spooky Nam stories that grips you maybe it's the setting helps make it seem more believable, also animation is getting better great work all round
Vietnamese here, i now live in the West Coast US, but i grew up in Viet. I dont really believe in superticious stuff and im really really brave myself but i gotta tell u, as a kid, ive heard and seen, like physically seen a ghost. Cuz at first i when i saw it i thought it just a woman, but then the guy who owns the farm house later on mentioned in his convo with my parents “oh im spending the weekend all by myself, my wife went to the city to visit my daughter” then i was like “wtf i just saw a woman facing toward the gate”, there are many more but i gotta tell u, Viet is a place where u should not joke around with the super natural things, if u don’t believe or theres no science to it, fine but try not to disrespect anything, ur gonna regret it
There’s a lot of things that can harm a human known and unknown I bet but watching a rifle round bounce off of anything that is alive and do no damage is probably extremely terrifying.
The fact that they don’t seem to actively hunt the soldiers for the most part, kind of makes me think that they are just curious about the people. I forget if the soldiers who shot at them while running were reacting to the lizards approaching them or not, but considering how many gathered round to watch them leave, it could be they were being more territorial protecting a family and home which would explain why, when out and about they just ignore the humans. Really interesting story! This and the massive snake are my favourites overall
Not curious in the least. Like you said they were trying, peacefully, to route, rabble rousers from their peaceful domain. They've been on Earth much longer than humans so they know infinitely more about humans then vice versa.
The world is sick and people are dumb. A human being can make friendly contact with a "lizardman" shaman very easily. Many of them are friendly and honorable.
The area of Karst landscape covered in dense jungle is over 2000 square km. There is massive amounts of unexplored surface in there let alone the caves underneath.
I like following stories that talk about reptilian beings. It's really fascinating to think we could have a whole other humanoid culture living miles beneath our feet. I was hooked after listening to the "Interview with a Reptilian Woman Lacerta". Now I just follow bread crumb trails of their possible existence. Well done. 👍
19 Delta:I've known vets who served in Nam, read stories told by soldiers and spooks(cia), stories told by the VC themselves, even they didn't venture into the jungle for fear of what lived there and still today do not venture further than they have to and never alone
Good One. I've been researching that cave now for 3-4 years. It is absolutely PSYCHO. Apparently it is possible to fly a 747 jumbo jet into and out of this cave with relative ease, although I don't recommend it. Furthermore, it is almost CERTAIN that what IS known of the cave and been mapped & explored is only a fraction of the entire system. As for whether it is the abode of draconian lizard folk, or Batman, Fred Flintstone, or Hubert the Happy Homo, we may never know. One thing we CAN be as sure as shit sticks to a blanket, it's a weird world. Interesting times are ALWAYS found Here and Now. Anytime one not only looks, but Sees. Often what we DON'T see, is more telling than what we DO see. .. Be that as it may, and that said, I personally neither believe nor disbelieve. Because I simply lack ALL the facts needed to form an opinion on this topic. I'm not qualified nor comfortable drawing conclusions with so little to go on. I'm comfortable to temporarily suspend judgement. Listening to what the "world at large" is saying without presumption is of great assistance in briefly disabling judgement, and or ANY doubt I might have, about the unknown, so that it may be possible to learn some thing...or if for no reason than for entertainment purposes. if I Ever find opportunity to do so I can live with whatever the wind blows in. Hopefully it is the truth. It's as much as I ask. ~ Good work Luke ...Another Great Video episode.
People live in contradictions. They will say they won't believe something exists unless they see it. In reality, the vast majority of what most people admit to exist came from secondary information. They are people who stick their finger up to see which way the wind is blowing before they speak.
@@prioris55555 I think You are very correct. In other words most will draw conclusions before having sufficient factual evidence to support them. I think because of limits of mental acumen, exp. edu. etc - People tend toward belief for convenience, as a substitute for factual knowledge. It's understandable in a way. Real knowledge takes time, is hard WORK. It requires being wrong most of the time. SO - They will spend a LOT of energy convincing themselves by repetition, and aggressively to others...Religion ? I see it constantly, people don't really want to learn, they want confirmation of what they already believe or things that align with them. ~It's easier to just wing it, and try to get laid and make it by other means, and just try not to give it away by acting like a TOTAL Fkn GOOF Buffoon. They'll all fall for it, if they are the same way. ...-Re: Why the world is in SERIOUS peril.../\

I feel like stories similar to this will be coming out about OEF/OIF. There are already a good number out there from some vets. But, as some of the lifers who joined at the beginning are hitting their 20 year mark and will start retiring, they'll hopefully feel free to share their experiences. I never deployed myself, but I served alongside many who did. There was some truly messed up stuff that happened in Afghanistan and Iraq. I'm positive we haven't heard the end of it from those troops.
Hangar 2 in Katterbach, Germany (hell, the entire post) is haunted. It was the prior home of the Condor Legion, and they held funerals in there. We used to see German Soldiers out of the corner of our eyes mirroring us when we would do security checks in there at night. It got to the point where we would give notice on entering at night so the "other guards" would know what we were doing. One of my Troops came screaming down the hall one night while I was on SDNCO all freaked out because "someone" sat down on his bed, shook him awake, spoke to him in German and then turned on his stereo. He stayed up the rest of the night with me. Our BDE CSM and his wife were awakened by an old German woman at the foot of their bed in their quarters one night. He couldn't move back in until his wife had the place exorcised and blessed. He was not at all happy.
@@jameswells554 That's intense. Thank you for sharing. While I was stationed in Fort Rucker, AL, I discovered that my unit area was (allegedly) a place where they tested weaponry. The room where we stored a lot of our gear still had a mount for larger crew served weapons, and according to rumor, the drains in the center of the floor were for cleaning the messes created when testing weapons on pig carcasses. Though I never had any odd experiences, and none of my friends did, we all talked about just how scary it was doing night checks in the building while being CQ. I've only been in a few other buildings in my life that felt as off as that place did.
11:15 There are quite a few parallels here with similar stories from the deep woods of North America. Cave entrances or underground passages with a putrid stench,a distant rumbling sound caused by some sort of unseen machinery,as well as all of it being clearly excavated by something intelligent.
I wish I could remember the stories my grandfather told me about being in the war from Vietnam. I was so young back then, & by the time he died, I was going into junior high. I’m pretty sure he had a lot of stories to tell.
Well done Sir, well done. Please do keep up your excellent work. Also, did you look into the Air Force accidental shoot down of two UFOs in the Mohave desert?
My dad was in the Vietnam war and would see spirits hanging off the trees in the jungle. So many of them don’t like to go into the jungle and if possible prefer to sleep outside it.
My granddad was a CPT in the North Vietnam army during the height of the war. When I was a kid, he told me countless stories of paranormal/supernatural stuff happening in the jungle and even in more "peaceful" towns that rarely saw combat. To this day, some of which still scare the shit out of me. Sadly, he passed away in 2020 and I couldn't get back home due to the pandemic. I would've traded a lot to listen to more stories from him again. RIP granddad.
Can you share that stories?
Thanks

I am an American in my 40s. My parents are from the jungles and hills of Laos. They relocated to the US after the Vietnam war. As a kid my parents, aunts and uncles would tell us stories of serpent humanoids disguised as humans (mostly as women) dressed in fancy gold dresses to lure men who are away from home and bring them to their underwater caverns.
In India whe have similar story of snakes disguise as beautiful woman and fancy gold to lure men nagani or nagakanyaka
in Papua New Guinea in the remotest part of Hela Province we have a living legend whom is currently alive to this day! he married a snake women and had a child with her lizard humanoid. he was given a lucky cham gift to have in this world. he explain that there world was under the water and cities made of diamond and gold.

We have stories in India of these creatures being called as Nagas ( Snake like humanoids) and their realm is called Naaglok which is under the earth crust. The term Naga ( Singular) origins from Nag ( meaning Snake) and they are deemed as Magical mythical creatures with shape shifting abilities.

so a woman called Naga munchetty basically means snake munchetty????
Yes in the Uk we have these lizard people called the Slow worm folk or the ophisaurus blokes & if you venture into the woods sometimes you can hear them in the distance playing their bongo drums. In the Uk they are much shorter, perhaps about 5ft 3' & they don't glow anymore because of the rise in Marmite pollution. I tried to catch one but the end of his tail fell off & he ran away, I think he hissed "ya can't catch me, yippeedy dee!!" Which may be an old leprechaun saying.
Indo-American Game Dev/network data security engineer here, I based my game's lore (WIP) around indian mythology and culture, and I've done a metric Fu*k ton of research for it.
We also have stories of a war with the Naags, dating back to around the 8th century, only briefly spoken about in the Vedas and the Gita. According to what I've been able to piece together in the past 6 years from various sources and scripts:
There was once a sinkhole in modern-day Nagaland, and (I believe it was the during the Sena dynasty) from it, poured out thousands of reptilian humanoid beings with spears and lances. A war started, lasted about 40 years.
We "won" and drove them out of the region altogether, which pushed them into the jungles to the southeast, and then collapsed the sinkhole completely. One author surmised that this was the original cause for the clash between (then) India and China.
My father served in Vietnam and he told a story about one of the soldiers opening fire on one of those snake demons and that the blood that came out of it was blue. My father never seen anything like this but said there was a well known story of soldiers coming into contact with them.

Unfashionably late to the party, but this episode really hit me because my dad and uncle both served in Vietnam and maybe it was partly because my uncle didn't come home, but my dad would never talk about it. I have so many questions that I will never get answers to because he's been gone a little over a year and even before he actually passed, dementia destroyed his mind. So anyhow, thank you for this. It has helped my heart heal a little. 💚
I am very sorry about your father, as I lost my own grandfather (Korean war vet) to a stroke, which left him brain-dead for a year. He was the only other servicemember in my immediate family (a Marine, no less). Having someone you love and losing them at the same time is somehow even more heartbreaking.
As for the war itself, for as much (or perhaps as little) as I've read about Vietnam specifically, I have a better understanding now of why many men chose not to speak about their experiences. Misplaced guilt, being one of the many reasons. Many of them were put into situations none of us would choose to be, and then treated like monsters by ignorant people who wanted to throw stones and had no understanding of their experiences. Many men like your father may have only ever shared their experiences during an interview for one of the many books and films made, or in the company of fellow war vets, rather than sharing them with their family who they neither wished to traumatize or burden with the tragedies they witnessed. I've since made it a habit to say "welcome home" to any man I see wearing a Vietnam veteran cap.
@@WartimeStories Thank you so much 💚 now I'm crying lol. My dad was a Marine and I was always proud of that but I felt he wasn't and actually this sounds silly, but when I first watched Rambo it broke my heart and I just knew Rambo had PTSD before it was recognized. I think a lot more people have it than feel they can admit it. I'm sorry about your grandfather. It does make it harder when you feel like you lose them twice. 💔 Thank you, for everything. You are very appreciated!!
Much love
Im so sorry for your suffering... We all kind of suffer alone, together... I'm in my 50's and just found out that my real dad was a friend of the family but no one ever told me. He was also a Vietnam Vet. Life is weird.... 🤗 Praying for you... Love from Texas! ✌🤠💕🙏

I was a teenager in the 70's and had a friend who taught me to play guitar. He was a Special Forces soldier in Viet-Nam and after a while he started talking to me about things he had seen and done. One of his stories was running up on these creatures while searching a cave system for a VC weapons dump during an intel gathering party circle jerk, as he described it. I honestly thought he was pulling my leg, but I just smiled and listened. The world is a strange place, I just didn't know it then.
Any details? I heard there were various types of Bigfoot there but now I just think it's a shapeshifter shapeshifter
Great grandfather fought the Indochina war in the 1950's, it was France's own vietnam war, and back then there were already stories about lizard folks living into hollow hills and coming at night to take the bodies of soldiers and civilians killed during combat
@@juliehealingleaf6211 Personally, I don't think so. My bet is on surviving hominid (Denisovan, possibly). I think bigfoots/yetis/kandahar giants are pretty humane. They seem to be quite close to us humans, just more primitive. They're just minding their business trying not to be erradicated.

It messed him up and he sadly died from drinking. but the lizard man was one of them. Though not of the cave incident mention. he had run into strange creatures 2 other times. To all our service men and women Thank you !!
Reports of tall lizards were reported in Los Angeles under the city and encounters above. There have also been reports in desert caves in US
Saying "thank you" to US soldiers being used as cannon fodder is pretty outrageous. Every US war since vietnam was based on monumental lies.
Virtually the entire US political establishment carried out treason .
The people who thank the soldiers become accessories to that treason by their sanctioning the lies of the war and using the soldiers as cannon fodder..
The russian political establishment invasion of Ukraine was built on lies. These are acts of treason using the soldeirs as cannon fodder. Sadly, most russians sanction the lies and treason. Not much different than most americans.
A political mindset that lives by mafia ethics and morality dominates every major country.
What were the other creatures and lizard men story?
One has to be the Vietnam apeman.

My condolences for their loss. Its a hard thing to deal with BUT this is the way it plays out. My symphaties to them! I'm sure he was a great guy! GOD BLESS HIM , GOD BLESS ALL OF US ! Godspeed on to you! PEACE! American Natives saw al ot of this in The NAM! Bless them too!
Wow! You have just completely freaked me out. I was born in 61. My brother was twelve years older than me. When I was around 26 years old he told me of a creature very similar to what you just described when he was in Nam. He expressed to me not to mention any of this with his name for obvious reasons.

Can confirm. My one and only story that I can not explain away. I was working as the chief engineer aboard LYNX. A reproduction of a 1812 privateer. It would of been about 5 years ago now so around 2018. We had left Brunswick Georgia bound for key west. We were about 1/2 day into the trip. I wish I could remember where we were but somewhere in north Florida. Ether way about 100 miles south of Brunswick Georgia. We were maybe 5-7 miles offshore. The distance where you can’t really see buildings unless they are huge but you can see the glow of city’s. We were sailing heading almost due south. Anyone who’s been on a sailing vessel offshore knows how quiet it is. I was standing the 0000-0400 watch. The seas were maybe 8-10’ on a long period. Our ship was 122’. Our ship being relatively small when you would go into a swell you would just see ocean around you. Around 0200 off our starboard beam I saw a red light. The light was between us and shore definitely closer to shore than us. But the light was small and I initially believed it to be a side light. But soon it disappeared. Not thinking anything of it I didn’t log it or notify anyone… but 5 minutes later I saw it again. Then it disappeared. Then 5 or so minutes later… again. This probably happened 4-5 times. Then I grabbed the binoculars because I was so curious. I stared in the bearing of the light. Eventually. BOOM I saw a red light shoot up then hover in the air before slowly disappearing. “Oh fuck” I thought. A red parachute flare. Someone is in trouble. I immediately woke up the captain and he came on deck. I explained the situation and we both observed the light. I was told to contact the coast guard. I called over vhf and went threw the bla bla bla of explaining. They then told us that we were should attempt to assist. We spent the better part of 20 minutes turning to starboard and we’re heading towards the bearing I spotted the light last. Making 6 or so knots it would take us the better part of an hour to get on scene. Not 5 minutes later the coast guard called the sat phone on the ship. I had gave them my number to follow up.
The person on the other end of the phone said something to the effect of “do not assist. Proceed south. Do not get closer. Do not go to assist”
I thought. Well they are on scene. They don’t need us. But the atmosphere of the phone call was off. It felt weird. But hey. We are off the hook of trying to assist. In my mind I thought oh it’s just some drunk guy shooting flairs or something. So we fell off and proceeded south.
About 10 minutes after…
From the direction where I was observing the flairs… the brightest blue light appears. And I don’t mean like a police light. It lit up the night. A dull blue. Almost white at the source. I don’t know how to explain it. It was a cloudy night. It lit up the bottom of the clouds. It was very unsettling seeing every cloud lit upside down. The water was lit too. It made the water glow. I don’t mean a point of light. It was just bright. Maybe brighter than the day. The ocean was glowing. I could see down into the normally black water. Then after this happened for maybe 30 seconds but felt like a life time. A blue light shot up. Like up to space. The best I can describe it is like those pillars in a halo game that shoot blue lights up.
Then it was dark again
Everyone observed it on deck. And we all just said wtf. It was so strange none of us knew what to say.
The fucked up thing is the next day. 8 hours later on my 1200-1600 watch we watched a space x launch and it was nothing like what I observed the night before which is the only thing I could think of. The rocket took a couple minutes to get out of sight. That blue light was maybe 2-4 seconds before it was gone.
Sorry this was meant to be in the all ships are haunted video. I’m now serving in the coast guard and have heard a few stories at the smoke pit. If you ever do another video on boats I would love to help.
just curious why u didn't record the footage of the light?
@@moneydosanjh8744 hey sorry for the slow response. We would rarely have our phones on us while on watch. Combination of the captain didn’t want the distraction / 99% of the time you arnt getting a cell signal out there anyways. The light only lasted for about 20-30 seconds so even if I went running for my phone it would of taken too long. Wish I had a video of it though. I’ve seen one other video of something very similar ether here or on Instagram. I’ll see if I can find it.
Thanks for sharing. Would've loved to have seen this. The detail with which you describe the incident leaves no doubt about what you witnessed.

These Vietnam stories give me chills, my late uncle served there during the war. He started out in the infantry but transferred to driving supply trucks, where one of the things he transported was Agent Orange. He passed away from cancer a couple of years ago on the 4th of July, as my aunt said "he had his Independence Day." RIP Uncle Tom Anderson.
My uncle is in the hospital now passing away from complications of agent orange.. I’m 58 and am just now finding out he was in Vietnam.. it was NEVER mentioned once that I recall during my childhood
@@sherribreeden1906 My uncle didn't mention much about his time in Vietnam. One Veterans Day he told me he drove trucks out of Quảng Trị, and the last time he was in for a visit (about a year before he passed) he told me a little bit more. I pray that your uncle's passing is as peaceful and painless as possible, that he doesn't have to suffer further.
@@ewfisher89 thank you
That should tell you how much your government cares about you. They knew agent orange would eventually kill our precious vets and they had to fight another war at home to get it recognized as what gave them cancer and other symptoms. In desert storm they used depleted uranium rounds that affected our troops and many civilians. I'm sad to say that an even worse government is about to draft most of our youth to fight a world war against Russia, China, and North Korea plus others. Learn to enjoy every day that you have here before the madness takes over.

Well I'm definitely not tired of Vietnam stories. Already looking forward to more!
I think it is easy for modern humans to forget that for tens of thousands of years we were just as likely to be the hunted as the hunters. That environment shaped our brains, instincts and responses to danger even today. So when I look out into a forest or jungle and the hairs on the back of my neck stand up I don't think how safe I am and how there is nothing there, I wonder what that is out there that created that response in me. Our bodies are telling us that there are things out there we must fear and it is incredible hubris to think that there is not. And it' a tribute to your storytelling that your voice and a series of still illustrations bring out those feelings. Well done.

There is a podcast called SOG cast with John"Tilt" Meyer and an episode with a former green beret called Nick Brokhausen which I was listening to recently and he started into telling a story from one of his missions in the Vietnamise jungle when he was accompanied by indigenous team members. These team members were well respected for their knowledge of the land and field craft in the jungles, also these specific team members on this mission were well known to Nick and he mentioned how cool calm and collected they normally were. However on this mission he commented how throughout they constantly were asking him to leave because of the "snake people" in this area and generally acting extremely agitated. He also noted how there were no north Vietnamese in the area (which if you've listened to any SOG stories is unusual, they normally involve combat) and the indigenous team members again told him this and it was because of the "snake people".
Nick told the story in a very matter of fact fashion and didn't seem to have an opinion about it one way or the other.
Anyway just thought Id share that as it gave me chills having remembered watching this video months before and now having a weird corroboration of stories lol, go check the podcast out if you are interested it was really good. I think the story comes up almost an hour in.
Tilts episodes on Jocko are amazing. Sogcast is great. I'll have to look that up

That is chilling I believe the indigenous people. I have researched this type of thing for a while now I believe they are real and were here before us. I don't think its a coincidence people have a reptilian part of the brain.
Subsequent investigations of course proved that all these events were attributable to Donald Trump.
they were referring to the naga people. Ancient Vietnamese and Thai people have centuries long friendly relationships with them up until the turn of 20th century where all contact was severed or lost.

Bedtime Stories and Wartime Stories are two of my favorite TH-cam channels. I cannot imagine what military personnel have seen or experienced during wartime or deployment anywhere outside their comfort zone. Especially in Vietnam. Which out of all the wars, is probably the most bizarre to ever have happened due to its location. Thick dark jungle. Just like the vast mountains of Afghanistan. I love this shit.
Lots of the jungle combat in world war 2 was wild too
Maybe the real reason America got into the Vietnam napalming and bombing the jungle over there is because they were really at war with these alien creatures.
@@toldyouso5588 Nah, the real reason was they hated us smoking up all the Ganja good good and shooting up all the opium from the Golden Triangle Region in our forearms and between the toes . . They failed

If you are wartime story buff, try watching "THE OBJECTIVE" , real story set in wilderness of Khandhahar mountains, Afghanistan. Especially the last scene.....superb direction. Hat's off to all the crew.
There is an Indigenous author, a professor called Ardy Sixkiller Clarke. She collected true stories from various indigenous tribal members. In one of her books, Space Age Indians, she interviews a few ex-military men regarding their strange experiences in Vietnam. They too encountered reptilian beings. Her books are incredible and well worth getting. The true tales are mind blowing

Art bell himself was a vietnam vet and even worked to save orphans of the region in his later life.
Being a bit older of the Gen X generation I listened to Art Bell and Coast to Coast regularly. If you enjoy the paranormal and strang listen if you can. Art passed in 2018 and had retired from the show earlier but can be interesting to listen.
Great episode as always.

You would’ve liked the story that this narrator told awhile back on War Time Stories. It was about some U.S. soldiers who were in a tropical jungle(I think they were in South America) and they saw a massive constricting snake that the locals called “EL Diablo.” The soldiers witnessed seeing this giant snake killing livestock for food.
There are a great many cryptids all over the world. Check out Dogmen because you have a good chance of seeing one if you spend time in the outdoors.

I have devoured A LOT of stories like these over the years, just because it fascinates me, and lizard people seem to be one of 2 options:
1) Lizard-like aliens that can disguise themselves as humans, infiltrating our society.
2) A native lizard-like species from Earth that live in vast underground cities (some even say hollow earth) and kind of stay out of the way of humans.
Can't wait to hear more! I just love the coziness of listening to these stories after work :)
Yep. Some people even say that tons of older civilizations live underground basically via the pattern of getting sufficiently advanced then getting pelted by the sun (or other cosmic disaster). These advanced civilizations take off underground where they can avoid calamities from the surface world.
Or another interesting take I just heard of was that they are physically manifest demons (along with grays possibly).
TH-cam Archons or such and look for the first or second David Icke video. He's a bit much but still a fun watch
@@Trollamollex Yes, the more I hear about ghosts, aliens and cryptids, the more they seem to be related and possibly the same thing. Question is: which one are they? Pretty fun and spooky to think about. The ancient civilizations have more solid proof to have existed. Heck even giants. I have heard from multiple sources stories about red-haired cannibal giants that ate humans in native America.
It is both, there are Reptilians living in the Inner Earth (which is more like HoneyComb Earth not Hollow Earth) and they have been referred to as the Naga. But there are also Raptors that live underground. And then there are the Alpha Draconians that have been on and off the Planet for thousands of years and most likely seeded the Dinosaurs as a Reptilian Genetic Experiment. And the Draco created the Controlled Modern Society we have today with all the Draconian Laws and Rituals. Reptilians are known to have the ability to Shapeshift and Camouflage themselves beyond the abilities of the Chameleon. I believe that it was the Draco (and the Naga were a Draco Contingent that stayed on the Planet and went underground) that gave rise to all the Reptilian Gods in different Cultures, and the Draco and Dinosaurs that gave rise to Legends of Winged Dragons.
You were listening to Lacerta interview too it seems
Why not both??? It makes more sense that reptile-like aliens would come from the only planet we know of that has reptiles. Check out the Silurian Hypothesis that posits humans are not the first species on this planet to have an industrial revolution
At around 5:10 you can see one of the soldiers wearing a patch with the channel logo, sneaky little detail there
Props for opening up on them. Trailing you in the woods and rapidly approaching is a sign of hostility if I ever saw one.
Regarding the reason why Vietnamese people avoid going too deep into these jungle, it's because there's an idiom that has passed within our culture for generations. "Rừng thiên, nước độc" which literally mean "divine jungle, poisonous water".
These area is believed to be home to powerful ancient spirit that can easily end your life if they're angered (which is true btw, call me crazy all you want, I saw people driven mad after they accidentally poke random rock in the jungle before. The hospital couldn't figure out the reason as well)
So, those who dare to overstay their welcome in the jungle will likely to die.
Plus it was keep as national park, so no large machinery allowed and without machinery supports, no one want to and stupid enough to venture deep inside.
Can you name a certain location?
That is just weak shit. That's why Americans exist. White men were born to explore and discover everything.
@@fidanzajuan5506 this happens all around the world, why all the national parks in the US and canada have high count of people disappearances? We are not alone on this planet and there are places where those creatures have nests or some call it "underground bases" beautiful wild areas, people should learn by shutting their ego that these creatures also demand respect and if someone comes littering, acting loud or hunting in their area first there's warning and if they ignore it they disappear.

O Brian talked about how weird and spooky Vietnam was in “the things they carry”
He talked about listening posts that stayed there too long and started hearing sounds in the jungle. Not the normal sounds but the sounds of like glass klinking, and laughter like at a dinner party. Or fog that seemed to appear out of nowhere and the shapes that seemed to come out it
The Vietnam jungles are, too this day, very mysterious, and unexplored. There is an extremely rare species of antelope named Saola that live in those jungles. One hasn't been seen in years, but they have been seen and documented. If the jungles can hide those animals, what else can they hide?
Imagine during wartimes…😂
Not only is it massive and untouched but it can't even be properly explored, such thick shrub and vegitstions and valleys and peaks and unforgiving storms which can really come out of no where.
Another thing jungles easily hide are ancient cities. I know in the last 20 years there have been at least 2 or 3 large ones found, and some people have been looking for them at great risk to themselves with combination of satellite pictures, talking to locals, and walking the jungle. Where it has overtaken where people used to be is only traversable by foot or boat. The mountaneous areas are the most arduous to travel, but to be honest looking for artifacts is easier than strange creatures as sometimes we leave things we want people to find like tombs or giant shaped rocks.
I did see an instance where the locals did not allow them to take the river to their destination.
People live in the jungle who seldom meet or share what they know to people who live outside. Not all of them want to talk to outsiders.
@@xSwordLilyx this in vietnam?
Hearing you mention son doong really made me lose my mind. I was in phong nha earlier this year and was alone riding around the roads besides the jungle on my motorbike when I arrived at the entrance point for the hike to the cave. The hike itself is apparently a full days journey through the jungle. I walked for about 4 hours before becoming increasingly anxious of my surroundings. I could hear the crunching of branches as if I was being approached and I have never felt more like I was being observed in my life. I worked myself up into a frenzy and literally ran at a full sprint back the way I came (which was all the way up a steep muddied hill). Even once I got back onto the road where my bike was I still frenzied and I rode off as fast as possible. I understand that it’s natural to be paranoid in the jungle, especially when alone, but that wasn’t my first time exploring the jungle out there in vietnam and what I felt there was a different type of fear. Going into the jungle like that alone is stupid for so many reasons and I have had a few other sketchy experiences out there with running into some jungle people but all in all I’m grateful to have experienced it all. We’re not given the opportunity to feel that primal fear in today’s society, it’s horrible yet humbling. I don’t know what to think of reptilian people, especially when they’re described as humanoid but I do believe that anything could be out there in cave systems that vast, let alone in the jungles.

Excellent video! Very interesting, if i could add my two cents, I lived and worked in Quang Binh province for 4 years, worked extensively around Phong Nha, saw these caves and yes, local people talk about these creatures and say they live in the caves, the thing is there are a number of rather large caves in the area, the jungle in Phong Nha is very thick a very large part is a protected area not just anyone can go into the park you need to get permission, another thing is, there is proof that these caves are connected to caves in Laos! i was told by one of the British team who originally explored the caves that they suspected this and actually traveled to Laos and found caves in Laos that they thought might connect to the Soong Dong cave system, they found a river in this cave and put dye into it, this dye did show up in the Phong Nha cave system

just discovered this channel. its incredible. I read a similar story online, although not validated by the veteran himself. But his grandson said he was a tunnel rat, and upon exploration of one tunnel system with another comrade, they discovered something eerily similar to the third cave story. Reptilians in robes, but were participating in a ceremony of some sorts in a hazy, odorous hollow.

I'm a Marine, in QuangNam Provence Vietnam i had several strange encounters, very strange encounters. I was in the valley of dragons, we were led there by our Cótu sure-foot scout. First cave we come across Pvt. Gutierrez has the honors, a few seconds into the cave he starts unloading his M16 but semi-auto rapid fire. He comes out gasping about the fxxxing dragon, and there was a 16' stocky beaded lizard build lizard, very dead, Gutierrez killed it. We went into the valley a bit farther,,,but we turned around to make it out before dark. It was weird though, you could tell there were other lizards out there looking, maybe stalking us.😊 Our little sure-foot scout smiled when we returned to the pass, he just smiled that big ol i told ya so smile with his black bettlenut stained teeth, we all kind of chuckled, except Pvt Gutierrez, he just "main giant ass man eating lizard" and wondering if he would get a purple heart if he gets eaten by something, like a big fing lizard,,,
This humanoid reptileon being story reminds me of what my brother said to me few years back when he had one of his out of body kind experience. At that time, i brushed it off but because of these stories, i asked him again about his encounter with these creatures. He said these humanoid reptileon beings are about 7 feet tall. He encountered 2 types of the humanoid reptileon beings, one green (more terrifying looks and still sending chills to his body when he thinks about it) and the other is blue ( a slightly better look than the green one).He said these beings doesn't posed any danger. These creatures told my brother that they are in the brink of extinction and are on the run from another gray beings (now this makes me feel really uncomfortable and like an idiot for stating this out loud here).

This Planet Earth we live on that humanity in general seems to think is ours like we own it or something due to being the most intelligent and successful species of the many that inhabit and occupy it is actually completely false believe it or not. From my own research these reptilian beings claim to be the originators and true natives of the planet and have been mostly living subterranean deep below humanity's feet in complete underground city's that have tunnels interconnected throughout the whole planet where there are also many other types of beings living down there. It sounds crazy I know but trust me there is a shed load of documented accounts recorded throughout the ages that speak about humans interacting with these reptilian beings and mostly about how humanity worshipped them as though they were gods.
Yes Carl Nagas-Sagan was one of them!
My grandfather was a general in WW2 commanding a guerilla unit against the Pons in the jungles of Philippines and told us stories about this giant snake that has been terrorizing his men. I forgot most of the story but they never caught the snake and at least 70 soldiers died said to have been eaten by the damn giant snake
While doing a tour in Iraq, we witnessed what we called “the ghost chopper”. We heard a loud sound, like a buzzing mixed with droning, and we looked up and saw a chinook transport chopper engulfed in flames, just chugging through the sky. No bodies could be seen, it just kept flying by, burning and belching smoke so thick you couldn’t see inside or any recognizable markings. Command never got any confirmation of any nearby aircraft in distress, a strange encounter I can’t even hope to explain.
Maybe was remote controlled covert ops air craft
@@mikeeckhoff20 I don’t think our government is making flaming remote controlled chinooks
Hologram, aliens were having a laugh showing off their disguise ship tech
Sounds like it was probably some kind of covert ops things. I can’t repeat details but I was when I was In rehab years ago a veteran pilot in our support group broke down one day talking about the things they had him do. One thing he mentioned was the fear he felt because they had them flying missions to a country near Iraq that we apparently weren’t supposed to be in and if they were to be shot down or attacked there would be absolutely no support or rescue able to help them. I’m sure a lot of sketchy stuff went on over there.
I once was two "gost planes" WW2 winged propellor type, totally grey, flying over my valley and one of them disappeared straight into the hillside...if it was a real plane it should have crashed and exploded but it just disappeared like a hologram.
Nicely done
"There's something out there waiting for us. And it ain't no man."
Billy knew.
I love how I practically know nothing about these kinds of stories despite being Vietnamese. Love your vids, this channel deserves way more subs
This story was awesome! I've been waiting for some good reptilian type stories that were actually documented. Everything about these creatures are creepy. Excellent work!
The third story is certainly the weirdest one because it seems to point to the idea that the Lizards have a somewhat advanced society going on. They have complex cutting tools to carve out their caves and even clothing that they wear "around the house" as it were. I also noticed that it seemed to be the only one where they weren't glowing. So either aliens, or there are seperate tribes that reside in the same area.
Also if cutting tools is one thing to consider but where did they get the clothing. Making cloth isn't easy by any means. Even if it's leather, it has to be produced. A naked snake being is much more believable than one with clothing.
See Lacerta Files, it will help explain a bit about how Earth originally was resided for tens of millions of years by the descendants of the Dinosaurs now called Saurins and they were forced to live in underground cavern cities after they fought off bad off-world aliens during the so-called Orion Wars that had creep into our solar system and onto planet Earth. The Saurins are benign reptilian like specie which I suspect the first reptoids in this video was about them because the finger description is similar to what the Saurin named Lacerta said in the interview which she explained the Iguanadon dinosaur hand is really taken from a fossilized hand of her distant ancestor. The Saurins are still alive in their underground cities and have been helping us fight the bad aliens who had enslaved us (Orion Dracos and ancient humans called Abraxans) for past decade which our Earth human ambassador to the Saurins and 35 other local alien species is named Kimberly Goguen. Kimberly has done many interviews, podcasts, and continually give out intel situation reports about the world and beyond at her news website called United Network News.
Love that “around the house “ as in little to no formalities. Super casual, maybe even calming.
I never leave these videos feeling like they lack anything...other than more. One of my favorite channels.
I sure do love this channel. Thank you Luke, for all of your hard work, and for serving our country. Thank you so very much.
Somehow this video was recommended to me by TH-cam and I can say I was hooked up to the story for the next twenty minutes. The amount of creativity used by the creator to generate a first hand spooky encounter of the creatures is spectacular. I must laud you for your work and you got a subscriber.
A dear friend of mine, an army vet who did multiple tours in Vietnam, recently passed away. The stories he shared with me were terrifying unforgettable. I can’t begin to imagine how many secrets he went to the Great Beyond with.
Rest easy Mark. I miss you terribly.
Until we all meet again 🩵✨
Wow! I had 5 uncles in Vietnam,cousins and many friends but they didn’t talk about their service
Back then there wasn't an openness to share things I have someone in his 60s or 70s actually at the time he was like it's 50s but he was so happy to be able to tell his story for not having fear of being put away like they used to in the olden days his other friend did tell people and they put them away and so a lot of people just didn't get to talk about things and that wasn't good for their psychology.
Thank you for creating these excellent videos. Been looking forward to your latest work.
A family friend talked about tiny dear that barked. He said in some valleys if he saw a Dinosaur he would not have been surprised.
I wonder how much is due to hallucinations from being overly tired. In basic, we were out for 4 days and I only slept for 4 hours in that entire time. By the third night, I saw two human-like forms floating through the forest towards me and they had a shine around them. I immediately reported it to my sergeant since I was the alarm post. He came and looked and told me there was nothing. Later on, I saw a black fox chasing its tail. Once the sun came up I noticed it was a large tree stump that just seemed to be moving.
I am a Navy brat and Navy wife. My father was in Viet Nam three times. He had so.e stories of things he saw that most people wouldn't believe. My father. He wouldn't talk about the things he saw. He had a haunted look to his eyes. When i came home from college, he said letsgo out to the 20:00 We walked out, and he said he had to tell someone, and he knew i could handle it and would believe him. He didn't want to scare my mom or sisters. He told me the things he saw when he had to go into the interior with some of his mechanics to work on aircraft. everything from these things, to giants and what they called "rock apes." I believed him. Years later as a Navy wife I heard of the "lizard people who are supposed to live near Cheyenne Mountain. I have since moved to the mountains of North Carolina. I was warned to avoid the Mammoth Cave system which runs from North Carolina up to Maine. Most of this system has not been explored. There are many unknown entrances and many stories of the "lizard people" who come out at night. Some areas you do not go out at night. The Appalachian Mountains are some of the oldest on Earth. There are many strange things here.
Im not sure if you traded up on your move or not lol, I was born and raised near Asheville and have been collecting stories and folk tales from the Appalachians that goes back to long before the white settlement of the land and although I have never heard a lizard man report closer than coastal SC there are quite a few other cryptids said to reside in these mountains, some are quite unpleasant, I myself am more worried about sirens (or mimics) that disguise themselves as people needing help luring people into the woods never to be seen again, or grabbing them from the water and dragging them in only to drown them.
As long as you know and obey the rules of the forest you will have no problems though.
This episode is fantastic. The writing, the voice work, the artwork and animation, the editing. Just top notch.
I found this very interesting and wonderfully creepy. The fact that the mountain cave had remained hidden (at least from the masses) for so long makes it easier to believe an unknown creature resides there. Thanks for presenting this story.
You ever heard about the military unit that was attacked by a giant blue man up in the middle eastern mountains? If not that’s one you’d like for sure
Loved this episode, never heard of the first 2 stories or the caver one either. There's definitely something about spooky Nam stories that grips you maybe it's the setting helps make it seem more believable, also animation is getting better great work all round
If anyone besides me who grew up in the early to mid 70's and remembered the tv show land of the lost these things sound like sleestaks.
DARN those Sleestaks!!
I was just gonna say something like that.
Vietnamese here, i now live in the West Coast US, but i grew up in Viet. I dont really believe in superticious stuff and im really really brave myself but i gotta tell u, as a kid, ive heard and seen, like physically seen a ghost. Cuz at first i when i saw it i thought it just a woman, but then the guy who owns the farm house later on mentioned in his convo with my parents “oh im spending the weekend all by myself, my wife went to the city to visit my daughter” then i was like “wtf i just saw a woman facing toward the gate”, there are many more but i gotta tell u, Viet is a place where u should not joke around with the super natural things, if u don’t believe or theres no science to it, fine but try not to disrespect anything, ur gonna regret it
More Vietnam very welcome - this and Kitsune are among your channel's best.
Love your channel brother, not tired of Vietnam one bit so keep em coming!
Same 👍
There’s a lot of things that can harm a human known and unknown I bet but watching a rifle round bounce off of anything that is alive and do no damage is probably extremely terrifying.
Great stuff! Love your stories, Luke! I always go on internet safaris after I watch trying to learn more. You never know what's out there.
Love that phrase!
This type of thing was reported in Afghanistan and Iraq. Giants, jinn etc.
Such quality of storytelling, tone, pace, sound and video editing. Keep up these amazing stories coming and thank you!
My uncle was in Vietnam he made it back I can only imagine the madness of war and what's Vietnam was like
The fact that they don’t seem to actively hunt the soldiers for the most part, kind of makes me think that they are just curious about the people. I forget if the soldiers who shot at them while running were reacting to the lizards approaching them or not, but considering how many gathered round to watch them leave, it could be they were being more territorial protecting a family and home which would explain why, when out and about they just ignore the humans.
Really interesting story! This and the massive snake are my favourites overall
Not curious in the least. Like you said they were trying, peacefully, to route, rabble rousers from their peaceful domain. They've been on Earth much longer than humans so they know infinitely more about humans then vice versa.
We have won many wars, including two American invasions, we are not afraid of any enemy
The world is sick and people are dumb. A human being can make friendly contact with a "lizardman" shaman very easily. Many of them are friendly and honorable.
Im positive that if they wanted, they couldve killed them easily. Bullets bouncing off their skin? Yeah theyre certainly aware of their abilities.
Modern day if Vietnam happened: Some random E4 sees snake person: "Would"
The area of Karst landscape covered in dense jungle is over 2000 square km. There is massive amounts of unexplored surface in there let alone the caves underneath.
I love your presentation - stories first, then a reasonable discussion.
I like following stories that talk about reptilian beings. It's really fascinating to think we could have a whole other humanoid culture living miles beneath our feet. I was hooked after listening to the "Interview with a Reptilian Woman Lacerta". Now I just follow bread crumb trails of their possible existence. Well done. 👍
19 Delta:I've known vets who served in Nam, read stories told by soldiers and spooks(cia), stories told by the VC themselves, even they didn't venture into the jungle for fear of what lived there and still today do not venture further than they have to and never alone
Good One. I've been researching that cave now for 3-4 years. It is absolutely PSYCHO. Apparently it is possible to fly a 747 jumbo jet into and out of this cave with relative ease, although I don't recommend it. Furthermore, it is almost CERTAIN that what IS known of the cave and been mapped & explored is only a fraction of the entire system. As for whether it is the abode of draconian lizard folk, or Batman, Fred Flintstone, or Hubert the Happy Homo, we may never know. One thing we CAN be as sure as shit sticks to a blanket, it's a weird world. Interesting times are ALWAYS found Here and Now. Anytime one not only looks, but Sees.
Often what we DON'T see, is more telling than what we DO see. .. Be that as it may, and that said, I personally neither believe nor disbelieve. Because I simply lack ALL the facts needed to form an opinion on this topic. I'm not qualified nor comfortable drawing conclusions with so little to go on. I'm comfortable to temporarily suspend judgement.
Listening to what the "world at large" is saying without presumption is of great assistance in briefly disabling judgement, and or ANY doubt I might have, about the unknown, so that it may be possible to learn some thing...or if for no reason than for entertainment purposes. if I Ever find opportunity to do so I can live with whatever the wind blows in. Hopefully it is the truth. It's as much as I ask.
~ Good work Luke ...Another Great Video episode.
relatively recently they found also massive cave systems in china and in canada
Lol Hubert the happy h*mo 🤣🤣🤣
People live in contradictions. They will say they won't believe something exists unless they see it. In reality, the vast majority of what most people admit to exist came from secondary information. They are people who stick their finger up to see which way the wind is blowing before they speak.
I like the Fred Flintstone theory
@@prioris55555 I think You are very correct. In other words most will draw conclusions before having sufficient factual evidence to support them. I think because of limits of mental acumen, exp. edu. etc - People tend toward belief for convenience, as a substitute for factual knowledge. It's understandable in a way. Real knowledge takes time, is hard WORK. It requires being wrong most of the time. SO - They will spend a LOT of energy convincing themselves by repetition, and aggressively to others...Religion ? I see it constantly, people don't really want to learn, they want confirmation of what they already believe or things that align with them.
~It's easier to just wing it, and try to get laid and make it by other means, and just try not to give it away by acting like a TOTAL Fkn GOOF Buffoon. They'll all fall for it, if they are the same way. ...-Re: Why the world is in SERIOUS peril.../\
Did I miss this out. Wish I seen it coming but enjoy seeing more of your content.
I swear there no other content creator I anticipate videos from more! Nor is there another channel with who's videos I have watched all of, I love this channel dude
this channel should be on Netflix as a series. man it deserves a high budget.
I've been hoping you do this story, I believe they saw these things and the locals know about them like it's regular
These vids are well worth the wait between uploads. You guys do amazing work. Great stories, great illustrations.
I feel like stories similar to this will be coming out about OEF/OIF. There are already a good number out there from some vets. But, as some of the lifers who joined at the beginning are hitting their 20 year mark and will start retiring, they'll hopefully feel free to share their experiences. I never deployed myself, but I served alongside many who did. There was some truly messed up stuff that happened in Afghanistan and Iraq. I'm positive we haven't heard the end of it from those troops.
Hangar 2 in Katterbach, Germany (hell, the entire post) is haunted. It was the prior home of the Condor Legion, and they held funerals in there. We used to see German Soldiers out of the corner of our eyes mirroring us when we would do security checks in there at night. It got to the point where we would give notice on entering at night so the "other guards" would know what we were doing. One of my Troops came screaming down the hall one night while I was on SDNCO all freaked out because "someone" sat down on his bed, shook him awake, spoke to him in German and then turned on his stereo. He stayed up the rest of the night with me. Our BDE CSM and his wife were awakened by an old German woman at the foot of their bed in their quarters one night. He couldn't move back in until his wife had the place exorcised and blessed. He was not at all happy.
@@jameswells554 That's intense. Thank you for sharing. While I was stationed in Fort Rucker, AL, I discovered that my unit area was (allegedly) a place where they tested weaponry. The room where we stored a lot of our gear still had a mount for larger crew served weapons, and according to rumor, the drains in the center of the floor were for cleaning the messes created when testing weapons on pig carcasses.
Though I never had any odd experiences, and none of my friends did, we all talked about just how scary it was doing night checks in the building while being CQ. I've only been in a few other buildings in my life that felt as off as that place did.
@@warpdrivefueledbyinsomnia8165 the BDE CSM was Hatten. He was an old Nam Vet; funny dude, great CSM.
@@warpdrivefueledbyinsomnia8165maybe it was more than pigs killed 😮
The intro is fantastic.
I'm from Africa and our elders tell many stories of reptilian people
Which country 👍
Like what?
Go watch exorcist 2 that came out like that came out about 8 years ago
11:15 There are quite a few parallels here with similar stories from the deep woods of North America. Cave entrances or underground passages with a putrid stench,a distant rumbling sound caused by some sort of unseen machinery,as well as all of it being clearly excavated by something intelligent.
More than likely they in there
I wish I could remember the stories my grandfather told me about being in the war from Vietnam. I was so young back then, & by the time he died, I was going into junior high. I’m pretty sure he had a lot of stories to tell.
I imagine! How old was he when he went?
Well done Sir, well done.
Please do keep up your excellent work. Also, did you look into the Air Force accidental shoot down of two UFOs in the Mohave desert?
Great video man very informative and entertaining, not to mention well written. Thanks for your time.
My dad was in the Vietnam war and would see spirits hanging off the trees in the jungle. So many of them don’t like to go into the jungle and if possible prefer to sleep outside it.
