Ummmm, How Did We Miss This?

- I have a relatively short video today for you today. I still don't know what to make of it, but it is very interesting, whether or not it is what it looks like.
In 2015, an Episode of Survivorman aired (link below). And at the 35:35 minute mark, for approximately 3.7 seconds, the likeness of a bigfoot, sasquatch, or almas-like creature is plainly visible. The setting is in the Transylvanian Alps, in Romania. What better place for high strangeness?
Now, Les Stroud (Survivorman) is agnostic on the matter of bigfoot, but he still knows his stuff, and has expressed a great deal of interest on the subject. So I'd assume that he would have mentioned it if it was something of note, but what if he hasn't seen it yet?
Oh also, the figure seems to blink, but that very well could be nothing more than foliage shaking.

RIP to your longstanding illustrator Bob. His family is certainly in our prayers as are you and his friends in this tough time.
I think his name is/was Fred.
@@jannythewonderwomen2215 Can you really not read it correctly because he left out a comma? Are you actually of the perception that he called the Illustrator Bob? It seems obvious to me that he is talking to Bob about Fred.
@@hyperluminalreality1 🙄🤦🏻🦧 They really didn't even leave out the coma, she just read it wrong.
@@hyperluminalreality1 Well, that's entirely the point of grammar. To communicate things as concisely as possible. It's good it clicked for you more easily but don't shame others for not being able to click as quickly or not having the experience needed with English to understand the nuances. The point of grammar is to allow us to structure sentences for the purpose of communication with anyone, even non-human animals, many species have language systems that include grammar. Just feels super unproductive to sound so annoyed over something that happens all the time because misunderstandings are always inevitable, it's not like we can mind read.
@@hyperluminalreality1fucking Christ calm down kid
You know Les Stroud is pretty into the Sasquatch topic himself, maybe a Bob Gymlan interview for the future?
Just what I was thinking. I can't check right now but I'm pretty certain Les has a series of videos about searching for Bigfoot in North America.
@@logirl1975yes he does it’s survivorman Bigfoot. I think it’s all on TH-cam too.
If you haven't gave it a listen yet, i would highly recommend his interview with the podcast Sasquatch chronicles
@@Majorchugthank you I will
@@Majorchugis that on TH-cam?
I've hunted since I was 6 years old. During the day, especially when hunting from a deer stand, as the light changes while moving through the woods, it is very easy to see things that simply aren't there. Shapes that I have been convinced are animals resolve into brush tops, color swatches on fallen logs, etc. Saying that, I cannot say how many times these shapes resolved themselves into animals that are standing stock still, completely un-moving. Deer learn to check deer stand locations as they cross their territory. I had one doe, in particular, that would approach from behind a tree with a fork in it around 4 feet up. She would walk to that tree and turn her head to one side so that all that was visible to me was her eyeball looking at me through the fork. She would stay there for 15-45 minutes just watching, never moving, until she was confident that I wasn't a booger and it was safe to move through.
Thank you for another video. I look forward to the next. I hope your illness passes soon.
I was walking my dog a few weeks ago and saw a hare moving about 50 feet in front of me, it disappeared, I thought it must have gone into a hole in the ground. When I got to the spot where it disappeared there was no hole, I looked for a solid minute but couldn't find it, neither did my dog, until I saw it, 5 feet in front of me, completely frozen, staring right at me. The dog never saw it, she saw I was interested in something and tried to see for herself but she didn't find it, she loves chasing rabbits and hares, and she has no idea that that day was the closest she ever got to one.
@@R.Lennartzas an animal novice, can dogs not smell critters like rabbits… ? A cursory internet search suggests it’s likely
I think it's a rock with a lump on top that looks vaguely like a head. The "face" is a result of yellowed plant matter being out of focus in the background, then further losing quality when the video was compressed for storage and transmission, then compressed *again* by TH-cam's surprisingly lossy algorithm. The change in shape of the "eye" is also explained by the motion of the camera having a small effect on how that section of the screen is compressed.
When the episode was being edited, the recording was almost certainly at a higher resolution than 1080p and hadn't been through two rounds of compression. The background would still be out of focus, but it would still be clear enough that it's some dying plants and a rock.
Good observations and theory. When I first analyzed the video, I concluded that the “face” details are definitely just the limbs of a plant.
Yeah I’m sure that’s the case, Mother Nature just coincidentally making a perfect replica of a Sasquatch, your absolutely right it’s gotta be fake, right?
@@RedexTwoPussys.
Yeah, it's convincing until you follow the shape down. It looks like it continues all the way to the bottom right corner of the screen, which gives me the impression of a fallen log. A rock is also likely. If it's squatch, he would need to be in a really awkward position.
He's also talked about a time where rocks were being thrown at him.
It's specifically the episode in Alaska I believe
Obviously by cougars. Wink
@@user-co8uy5rb2smilfs in forest?
He said it felt like something was sitting on his chest...
@@user-co8uy5rb2s NO, the SMART bears were doing it ? YEA , right !
You should try reaching out to Les about this.
No, seriously. Bob, he was willing to risk his career (at least with Discovery) over his Bigfoot series. Besides being one of the coolest dudes on the planet, Les is also extremely personable. It really wouldn't be out of his wheelhouse to talk with you on this.
Was probably their idea. What credibility does Discovery have anymore?
I am somehow by the grace of God a survivor of Stage 4 cancer. my prayers are with you and his family. he was an amazing artist. those long days and nights in which I was undergoing chemo and radiation I discovered your channel. more than anything you helped me learn how to think critically. youve helped me more than you know.
prayers for you and congrats on ur healing
Bob’s channel also helped me go through a very tough couple of years. I consider Bob a part of my support system that helped me survive pancreatic cancer, which is very rare. The way it normally goes as you feel good and until you don’t and then it’s too late. I’m glad you have also survived👍🏻
Is He waiting for you to get baptized?
Hello Bob, im so sorry to hear of Freds passing. I find it strange yet somehow comforting that his illustrations are now and always will be a part of all of us, just like your stories. This is a very special channel to me and thasands of others and to lose any part of it is a tragedy. Please give my deepest condolences and i hope his friends and family know that through his artwork he was a great part of tens of thousands of lives.
I will miss Fred. He sounded like a good man and I definitely loved his artwork.
Here's to a good man, and Bob Gymlan for bring us these fascinating cryptid videos and explaining how we shouldnt just laugh off something without giving the slightest inclination of critical thinking that it just may be that we are NOT masters of our world as we like to think. Arrogance in thinking we have seen and catalogued every bit of flora and fauna and our laughter at anything that challenges that attitude will be our undoing.
Arrogance can be just as dangerous as ignorance, totally agree with you!!
I'm new here to the channel... who's Fred??
@@china_is_assholehe was his long time artist for his videos. he got sick a while back and sadly passed.
In an interview with Wes Germer, Les Stroud talked about how he’s had experiences on the show that were too far into the unexplained realm, and his producers have those parts edited out. So, it’s very likely that if the producers had noticed this figure, it wouldn’t have made the cut.
You got to do what you gotta do to make a living.
In an interview he goes in depth about it, talks about being spoken to telepathically by one. It's hard to believe, even for me, but no doubt Les is certainly a believer.
Les mentions hearing a two legged something walk up to his tent at night all the way back in ‘94. He said something to it thru the tent and it walked off. I think after that, he was on their radar.
@@HighStrangeDrifterHitchhiker effect. Quite commonly reported by people who have experiences.
😂😂😂 "They cut that stump out of it to cover it up!" yeah sure.
Les is surprisingly active on TH-cam and really enjoys the topic as a whole. It'd be awesome if you could interview him about this/his encounters over the years.
There’s nothing to hear..
I've always liked his story about when he was filming the Alaska episode, where he was building a shelter but didn't have a camera running at the time.
He's gathering driftwood on the beach with his back to the forest, and he hears a whooping sound like a gorilla would make. It's a clear vocalisation with multiple whoops with quick breaths in between.
He said he never heard any more whoops after that, but he was extremely uncomfortable for the rest of his time there. Spooky shit.
Les has a couple of Bigfoot encounters, he did a podcast interview recently sharing them.
@_TheEmeraldEye_can you tell what podcast it was?
@michaelcollins-zv2dh There's a few he did with Joe Rogan. Interesting stuff you should have a listen
I am so sorry to learn of the passing of Fred. His artwork complimented your phd analysis of the subjects and his memory will live on through your brilliant work as your channel continues to grow.
New subscribers will go watch your old videos and discover Fred's talent for the first time and just admire his ability.
I lost my Pops (his name was also Bob) to cancer in 2018 so I can relate. I don't think there is a person alive today that has not lost at least 1 family member to cancer .
Again Bob sorry to learn about Fred
Hi I'm from hungary, and I do research into subjects like these, I have heard quite a few bigfoot encounters taking place here, and a few months ago I have talked to a guy who seen a bunch of them in transylvania (Romania), I also have found quite a few wood tent structures in the forests around here, when I was hiking. Just my 2 cents.
Edit: multiple people asked me for photos about these tent structures, in my latest video I present 2 of them at the 28:20 mark.
My first encounter was in Czech Republic, my second in the UK.
@@StennMathis where about in the UK?
Make sense a place with that much lore and legend. About wild man like beasts would have wild men.
Did you document or photograph the areas?? Bob would love to see those so he can make a video about what you saw. I would love to see that too!
@@remuslazar2033 What do you mean by all the forests cut down?
Happy New Year, Bob! I’m truly sorry for your loss and hope you are doing well. Thank you and Fred for many years of videos! He will be truly missed.
F in the chat for Fred
F for Fred
F for Fred. 🕯
F for Fred ❤️
Very sad to hear about Fred's passing, RIP.
Feel better Bob. We all miss Fred, but but his work and art will live on with us and you. RIP Fred. 🙏🏽
Thanks Bob and sorry for your loss, as cliche as that may sound. I’m sending prayers for Fred’s family. His art and your narration made for some of my favorite content.
There are legends in the Romanian mountains that describe cryptids and some of them are remarkably similar with Bigfoot type creatures. There is the mythological "Omul pădurii" which would be translated as "The man of the forest". He would be known for punishing people that are too loud or that are yelling in the forest during the night. He is also known in certain areas of Romania as a creature with certain physical characteristics like he is covered with hair from top to bottom and he has humungous feet. He is sometimes described as being a deformed "carnivorous" human with fang-like teeth. He can be heard singing with a rough voice and breaking logs by stepping on them during the night. His female equivalent would be known for crying in the forest to attract humans, especially children which she would kidnap and eat. In certain areas she possesses benevolent qualities and would be seen as a spirit that helps people lost in the wilderness find their way back to civilisation but in different areas only the malevolent traits are exhibited. Both would have supernatural qualities like transforming themselves into a powerful wind. There are probably thousands of myths and legends about different beings in the mountain villages of Romania. Many people that visit those mountains see or hear strange things. The locals coexist with both wild animals and the perceived supernatural ones. In certain villages they would have certain rituals performed to keep these forest entities out of the village.
Very interesting. Thanks for the info. Never having been to Europe I tend to forget about the remote regions like shown in this video. Don't know why but I think of all of Europe as being crowded and overpopulated.
@@reefsroost696 Definitely not crowded compared to Asia
Thanks for the info, very interesting. I've always heard of cryptids around there like werewolves and vampires (Carpathian mountains?).... cheers mate.
Allat
I've never heard about the turning in to huge wind thing. My 1st experience a huge gust of wind came out of no where and seemed to push hundreds of small, squaking birds into the small clearing where I was
Sorry about your loss Bob, please know we feel That loss along with you. Keep the great work coming.
I am Romanian and have heard of weird stuff in Romania. However, never ever have I heard about anything resembling Bigfoot. RIP Fred, I am sorry to hear about his passing.
Prayers to his family and friends. He was an amazing artist. Coming from someone who can't draw a straight line, It amazes me when I see the details,and how much he captures the moments when you are explaining what's going on in the videos. RIP Mr Dunn.
Considering Les had a whole show and TH-cam channel dedicated to Bigfoot, since he’s a huge believer after his Alaska episode, we NEED a Bob and Les combination show
After examining the video in question, I believe it to be a rock/stump. The lines that make up the "face" appear to be blades of grass. Which could also explain the expansion of the eye you thought you saw. Maybe I'm wrong.
You're not wrong, it's clearly just a mound of dirt or some other natural fixture of the landscape. I'm really surprised that Bob of all people would bother to create a video about something like this when the vast majority of his content has always been of such great quality. I wonder if he was drinking or high on something?🤔🤦🏻
@@gummo3873 I can certainly see what he saw. Maybe his sickness was part of it lol
@@mmerc9838 Yeah I'm really hoping that's all it is. Usually Bob's stuff is second to none and he is only human like the rest of us so holding the man to complete perfection 100% of the time just isn't fair or realistic. 🦧
@@gummo3873 exactly. One other thing I thought, if he had not examined it as closely as he did, and questioned if it was real, would I have examined it even closer and concluded it wasn't real? Maybe, maybe not.
Its a tree trunk , You can even see where it break
Also that's really close to the ground, if his upper body is taking up all that space where are his legs? The proportions do not add up
Could be squatting @@DemocratsReadMyBio
@@Kinobambino no room for his legs in a squat, the upper body is taking up the entire space
Hi Bob thank you for everything you do on the subject! I really appreciate your time and dedication!
Hello everyone.
I had an experience to. The funny thing is....this situation was located in the mid/north of Germany.
I was at the age of 10 I think.
Me and my friends were in a near small forest on a bike trip, playing…doing kids stuff.
We were relatively deep in the woods were we found an area of dead trees. That kind of spot were there is no sound.
We recognized the trees were easy to bring to fall....so we started playing super heros with super strength.
After a few minutes an HUUUGE (that huge we three boys could not bring this one to fall together) tree maybe 100meter away from us felt down next to us.
And than the hell breaks lose.
An scream so unbelievably loud, strong but kind of human starts getting louder & louder & the louder it gets the more inhuman it sounds. It was so strong that it shakes my eyesight & I can feel it in my body.
After the scream stop's.....we looked at each other with tears in our eyes and ran as fast as we can out of this forest.
No one of us did see anything but everyone of us was shaking to the bones after this.
Since this day I never go back in to that specific woods and feel a little odd in other areas.
For years I didn't associate this experience with the Sasquatch issue.
But than TH-cam was getting bigger & bigger and at some point I stumbled into 'Monster Quest'.
There was this episode were they recorded a potential Sasquatch scream.
Oh boy...
I wasn't prepared....
Alone...
At 4 in the morning....
To go back to one of my childhood traumata.
One thought that came to me after I dived into this topic was,
did no other people heard it?
I mean, there were people all around in the woods…maybe just 500meter away from us.
There were so many ideas what could the sound make.
From..
The overwhelming imagination of an jung boy.
To..
Mother Gaia sends spores to scare away the intruders.
Over..
The last Druid tribe telepathic scaring away three kids to stop them hurting the forest.
Anyway…
Thanks to Facebook, I could contact my colleague who was there at the time. We hadn't had any contact with each other for at least 10 years at that point.
I send him the link to this episode with my phone number to call me after.
Less than an hour later we were crying together on the phone.
I've always been someone who felt that our universe has more to offer than we think we know. Society always calls me a dreamer my whole life.
But at this point...I become a knower. 😎
Thanks you for your work, keep going friends. ❤️
Kannst du mir sagen wo das genau war? Ich habe ähnliche Geschichten bei mir in der Nähe gehört und denke es könnte sich um die selbe Region Handeln
Brother monster quest is incredibly fake lmfao
Thank you very much for sharing!
@@TheDsRequiemdude, you read the story without compassion but with a keyboard warrior again, read it again and try to get close to another humans experience without judging him.
That monster quest is fake to you is not the point here.
It's always a good day when Bob posts a new video. Rip to Fred my condolences to his family.
I guess that one time video about losing Fred was the only day that wasn't a good one. The rest, great to watch and think about.
So sad. I loved Fred's work. Condolences shared. Rip Fred.
Hi Bob. I tend to agree with you; unsure what to make of this. Paradolia can be very powerful, but hard to say with a largely stationary camera and fee seconds of film. My condolences for your (our) recent loss of Fred and get well soon.
This is the closest thing to a smoking gun we have knowledge of!
Outstanding work, Bob!
Rest in peace Fred . Wishing you well Bob, love and light ,K from the U.K
Fred's work will live on forever in part because of your channel. RIP Fred, prayers for his family.
Love the commentary on this situation! Always glad to see content from you!
I’m a long time listener and finally, I get my opportunity to contribuite in a meaningful way, because I’m Romanian and I’ve hunted/hiked in most parts of the country. I’ve also had plenty of encounters with brown bears and I would say I’m decently equipped to speak on the subject matter. What I’m about to say will have many of my fellow Romanians disagree with me, but I would say the disagreement is based on the desire for the mysterious to be true rather than objective fact. In my opinion Romania’s ecosistem would NOT be able to sustain such a large animal. Brown bears have been making a comeback, it’s true, but unfortunately that comeback is reliant on interaction with people. The brown bears found in Romania are much smaller than their American counterparts and their relationship with humans is similar to that of black bears. There is estimated to be around 8000 bears in Romania, and there have been 160 reported direct conflicts between bears and people in 2023. Sightings…in the thousands. So you have roughly 60x less bears than the US but more conflict. You can find them in the dumpsters of major cities every day of the week, just a month ago a friend of mine chased one with his car. All that means a certain amount of their population rely on people to survive. There are 11 bears on ever 60 sqm of woods. There lies the problem, the reality is there is no untouched wilderness left in Romania, and although bears have made a comeback, there are barely any deer, wolves or boars left. In the part of the country where I live boars have been driven to extinction, which is a hard thing to do.
As for what we can see in this video, I would say a post production modification, maybe without Les’s knowledge. Les has been known to involve himself with Bigfoot hoaxers in the past, so I wouldn’t put it past him or his team to pull off such an Easter egg. It also looks a bit 2015 CGI if I do say so myself.
Wow, I had no idea about Fred.. I followed his videos on here, amazing artist and really nice guy, he always replied back to me and I always gave him encouragement when his channel just for some reason got lost in the algorithm. I'm glad he had a hand in the bigfoot world, bringing these stories to life like no other... Check out his artwork, guys, he did all the videos in time lapse.
RIP Fred Dunn AKA DredFunn.
Gosh Bob, I'd 90% call this paradolia. I'm seeing too many other out of focus twigs and leaves around it that look exactly the same as what makes up the face. Sure its eyes open, the wind is moving the leaves ever so slightly. Just watch all the other flora at the same distance. That opening just happens to have the right shape for a silhouette. I've got a bunch of travertine in my house, and the faces go on forever in the marble patterns. Get well soon!
IDK I'm pretty sure it moves
I ain't seeing weeds & grass moving, it's a wooly bear or it's fake.
word, all the perceived facial features are bokeh'd brush
Also, if you follow what would be the left shoulder of the "creature", when it is in a lighter shade, you will see that the slope of it continues well past the tree. To me, this indicates a natural stone or dirt feature.
I'm also pretty sure that, given that these cryptids do exist, they wouldn't just sit right next to a human with a camera if they tend to be both extremely elusive and actively avoid being seen or captured on film. I'd also absolutely chalk this up to pareidolia
Thank you for all your work Bib and I hope this year brings you good things.
Thanks Bob, I've watched this maybe 5 times or more. I'm just intrigued by it and all your videos. Keep up the good work.
I felt a chill when I realized what was in the frame, it seems too still but something's there
At around 39:03 of the original Les Stroud video, right after he finishes talking, before he mentions that "something real big just ran through the trees," you can actually hear what he's talking about crashing through the woods! 😮 It seems like this happened shortly after this "watcher" was nearby... 😅
whoa
this needs to be way higher up.
edit: i was thinking it was likely an illusion but that statement makes me reconsider strongly. i’m sure this will get to Les sooner or later. Eager for a response or better yet, interview with Bob.
On part 2 of this he talks about the owls hooting in the middle of the day, he thinks it's strange
@@AlexJava-qk5bx ohhh interesting 🤔 they can/do sound like birdcalls sometimes. And making the sound of another animal to communicate with each other while maintaining your cover would make a lot of sense...
It's the shape of the grass extending over some hump making it look like a face... or pareidolia
Hi Bob. I live in Minnesota, my grandma and my cousins and aunt had an experience with a fissure in time. Exactly like the story you said except in the house in the middle of the night when everyone was sleeping. An extremely loud tee kettle type sound that shook and ended like the snap of a whip. Everyone in the house got up and checked around to see what it was but could only find a mysterious puddle of water in the dining room and had no idea how the water had gotten there. They said there was nothing around that could have caused it. It seemed like a mystery that would never be solved, but maybe just maybe… it was a temporal distortion or portal.
There's nothing there, bro. You're imagining things this time.
Have you ever seen those sculptures that are just a mass of meticulously positioned objects that when viewed from a particular angle reveal an image (Search Bernard Pras)? I think something to that effect is going on in this footage; it's just a mass of sticks and leaves and rocks and whatever else that from that specific angle just happen to look similar to a popular depiction of a bigfoot. You can kind of see, whenever Les rocks forward or backward a little bit, the blob also stretches and morphs in relation.
My God thank you! The only sane person in the comment section other than myself.
Whaaat? You don't think this lumpy shape is a gigantic, mysterious creature? I feel like 'belief' in bigfoot is just a joke that all the group's members are in on. I watch the vids because Bob's voice is pleasant. Though weirdly, when people send him in stories, they all use his writing mannerisms. He knows it's nothing but he also gets to make money from what is essentially a creepy Pasta channel with excellent illustrations and a compelling story teller.
That feels the most likely phenomenon here. It would be neat if Les had raw footage of the shot that showed the illusion disappear as he got up or repositioned the camera
Sorry to hear about your loss Bob. My prayers go out to you and your illustrator's family. Hope you feel better soon Bob. Thank you Bob for doing such a great job. Be safe everyone and have a great day.
Always lifts things a little when I see a post from Bob. Hope everyone's holidays have been going as well as they can be.
Get well soon Bob. Thanks for the video. Condolences for Fred. Happy New Year!
I hope Les gets a chance to address this directly - I think he’d relish the chance either way.
Its probably a crew man...they would've noticed that right off in doing the editing etc..
Hes had the chance to do it since the episode came out lmao
@@topmech71les doesn't have a crew when he's recording.
@@topmech71there is no crew on his show, they leave him completely alone and he records everything himself
Hello Bob. Thank you for these reports and great videos.
In the UK, we have a Bigfoot type creature call woodwose. They are reports of them dating back about a 1000 years. One was reported killing a squire on a hunt by smashing a rock into his head.
I am a believer of Bigfoot and thats why Ive been subscribed to this channel for years, the quality, open mindedness and rational take on this subject by you is unmatched. but I do personally believe its just pareidolia. The grass already has other horizontal running blades in the same area as well as other varied angles, they line up to create that definitive "brow" line (which I believe is so unnaturally straight to begin with). The shoulder and head shapes I believe are just simply the slopes of which Les is already leaning against.
Thank you for your content. I look forward to everything you make for this community. Keep them coming!
I agree and feel the same ❤ love this channel still
Well, after watch the video several times, wait I'll watch one more time... I'll have to respectfully disagree.
@@goosegirl941 Even if Transylvania could be a good place to look for the Almasty, I agree too with the pareidolia on this one. An argument could be the smell of it ! It supposed to stink so much, than for sure you must smell it even if you don't see it !!
@@jeromeb01 There have been reports of them reeking and other ones where they just don't. Makes me wonder if the terrible smell is some kind of defense mechanism or stress display.
Yep. I thought it was so obvious I was looking elsewhere for the bigfoot. Watching how the wind moves the other twigs and leaves I can see how the eyes would appear to blink, the branch can only move vertically.
Bob, you do not know much I love these videos. Seeing you show up in my recommended makes my day. Best wishes from me to you .
Loved the video! Sorry for the illness. Hope you get better soon! Certainly intriguing.
I am so glad you made this episode. I had remembered hearing from someone that Les had caught a Bigfoot on film but this is my first time seeing it.
This is definitely paradoilia. The 'eyes' are leaves and the 'blinking' is the light hitting them differently as they move in the breeze.
yea when he says that the eyes widen, you can see the lighting for all the leaves change at the exact same time. it’s 100% just paradolia and this is definitely on the much less credible side of bigfoot sightings
Agreed. It's just the hillside. If you look at the top left, behind his head, you see the terrain and can follow it down. The facial area is just the leaves out of focus.
I'll have to disagree for now.
Only because... THIS ? Is what Sasquatch's are great at.
I would like to see "Thinker Thunker" cover this though. He doesn't play !
He will Prove if it is REAL ? Or FAKE .
You will have a Answer at the end of his shows . Is it a real "prop"? He'll show you. Is it a real "Sasquatch"? He'll show you. Bob's shows are really Great to watch and I'm glad he covered this. 🤠🖖♨️
I see a log and some grass
@@cowboykelly6590 YES! I truly hope Thinker Thunker has seen the clip as I'd love to see his very detailed closer look! 🦌
I'm glad to hear from you Bob. I was worried that you might not feel up to it without Fred. I definitely felt bad to hear of his passing. I'm crying as I type. It's odd to feel sad to lose someone I've never met, but here I am talking about it. Any how glad to hear from you my friend!
I did the same thing you did when I saw the screenshot. I agree it would be very difficult to hoax-- as you likely know, at that point Les had just made an ill-advised trek down (and back up) a steep decline that ends in a cliff. Unless the footage came from somewhere else and was cut in at that point it would be very difficult for another human to be exactly where he was.
I think it's either pareidolia or it's real.
Another great video!!! Thanks for all your hard work
Really glad you've kept Fred's iconic intro slides! 🙏
-I feel that if he were so close, he'd probably be able to smell, no?
Most mammalian megafauna have strong scent, especially omni/carnivorous ones...
Really wish there were more field studies, not just mock ones by Discovery and the like 😑
A lot of witnesses don't describe remembering a smell.
I think this is just pareidolia though.
@@OfficialFedHater The smell people are referring to in some Sasquatch encounters is almost certainly a musk that most great ape species secrete for communication purposes. If a silverback gorilla doesn’t want you to come near him there will be an awful smell that will hit you before you even see him. So, safe to say when people describe a smell it’s likely because the Sasquatch is in an antagonistic mood. Or possibly just a lone specimen that has poor hygiene, I’m sure that happens sometimes too, apes are very, very smelly creatures overall. But the musk theory is most plausible by far in regards to explaining the smell associated with some encounters. Only about 15% of encounters describe a smell, which would make sense if only males produced it & only when they were in a particularly bad mood, feeling threatened or just aggressive in general.
They don't always smell
Bob seems to think the smell is optional to them, and that that may use it as a form of intimidation or communication... If they always stank to high heaven, they'd never catch a deer or anything else off guard while hunting
ANYTIME WE GET A BOBBY GIMS VIDEO, NO matter how paradoillish it is, IS A GOOD DAY!!!!
Hope you feel better and enjoyed Christmas. I love your videos. I've seen them all more than once. Make more if you can. Have a happy new year.
I gotta be honest there has been no ”evidence” that has ever made me even THINK of entertaining the possibility that bigfoot exists (used to be a hardcore believer as a kid) but damn it i love Bob’s videos so damn much I gotta watch
Hey!! My deepest condolences, sir. Sorry for the loss of your friend, Mr Fred Dunn. He was a great illustrator ❤
It’s always a good thing when there’s a new Bob Gymlan video.
Crazy how nearly every bigfoot sighting is a case of paredolia
Happy New Year to you and your subscribers Bob.
🌹 I was extremely sad to hear about Fred passing...he was very talented. Condolences to his family and friends!🕊
I'm nearly CERTAIN that in the few frames you went over, that we INDEED are seeing BOTH "eyes" actually blink (of course, that's IF we are actually seeing what it seems like we're seeing). One of the most interesting aspects of these absolutely gargantuan creatures in my opinion, is just how MAGNIFICENTLY camouflaged they are in their surroundings. It's ALL TOO COMMON for people to be screwing around, filming or snapping pics while they are on these outings, only to discover later after pouring over the images and footage, that there was one of these majestic beasts RIGHT there among them, but was so well camouflaged that no one had a clue as it occurred in real time. This species and EVERYTHING surrounding the topic is just endlessly fascinating.
Yep very interesting and they’re extremely intelligent
This is pareidolia. It's obviously not an actual bigfoot and the eyes are not moving.
I see the alleged silhouette but no eyes.
@@godless-clump-of-cells Watch it again.
You can clearly see deep set eyes and a brow Ridge where you'd expect them to be on the Head portion of the Silhouette.
And when he pressed Forward and Rewind you can see the eyes blink and mouth/lips move. But it could be an optical illusion as he said.
Don’t you follow all the videos on Bigfoot ? That’s stupid looking blinking Bigfoot was actually Todd Standing! It was analyzed with facial measurements I distancing and it turns out it was dumb ass Todd, the guy is a fraud !
Always a good day when Bobby G posts!
Another great video!!!!! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos,, nobody breaks down a video qyit like this dude !!
Hello Bob, you're such a humble guy and I truly enjoy your channel. Thanx for many hours of quality entertainment. Happy New Year Bob.
Cryptozoology at its best. Would enjoy an episode on the Hook Island sea monster, Bob!
Les also mentions at I think 39:07 or something in the video, that something big ran past him in the woods up above. When he was walking along that dirt rode. He says he must've been a bear, but he figured his loud talking to the camera would have scared a bear off. Who knows.
Thanks again Bob, it’s always a highlight to see a new video. God Bless.
Life stops when there’s new Bob.
Hope you had a great Christmas and have a happy new year Bob!
Bob,
Out of all the dozens of TH-cam channels I follow, yours is the ONLY one to actually get me excited & I dare say a bit giddy to watch the new video. Have a Great Day & Great New Year! Not that it matters but I’m a 56 year old man.
Until Valhalla
Me too. It's always a treat to see that Bob has posted and I feel giddy just like you.
Les has spoken about encountering "freaky things" in the wilds in the past. For his Alaska episode, he said
"I know the sounds creatures make in the wild. Im out there all the time. I know what bear and fox and coyote and wolves sound like. That was no animal i know of."
My friend and I got growled at on separate forks of a logging road not long after we got out of the truck dove hunting. What we heard sounded like giant monsters and I could feel the volume of it. No animal in Louisiana that I know of can make the sound I heard. My friend was already in the truck when I ran back to it and had the doors locked. Happened in 1979.
@@baneverything5580 Had a few odd encounters in my life as well... which is silly, because so many people have *none* and here I am with about five.
The only Sasquatch related story I have (and it could absolutely have been someone messing with me, or just super angry with me, or even a loosed rock from a small slide) is:
I used to drive Tractor Trailer across the country. I only made it up into Oregon and Washington State a couple of times. Lot of 'goat trail' roads out there. I pulled off to do a brake check and rest for a bit, and then felt the call of nature.
So, out to the edge of the woods I went, maybe fifteen feet or so since other people used that area. It was on the side of a mountain, and I'm facing all this greenery and there's a hillside about, I dunno, forty feet away from me? As I was watering the local flora, a rock the size of my fist went *zipping* past my head and banged into the tree just behind me and to my left.
I nolonger felt the need to do anything but zip, turn, and book it back to my rig, whereupon I rapidly departed.
At the time I was thinking, "Okay, okay, you made your dang point, I'm out of here!" Thinking back on it, it very well could have been something explainable (like a rock sliding free, bouncing down that hillside and popping up and sailing past my dome-- weirder stuff has happened).
@@baneverything5580 very cool story. Did it feel aimed at you? How far away?
Yes. There were thick bushes about 10 feet away that were 8 or 10 feet high off the road, probably huckleberry bushes, and a slope, but huckleberries ripen much earlier in the year. This was in the fall during dove hunting season. My friend was growled at on the other road by one of these things through the woods to my right and the growl I heard was to the left of me. It seemed very close but I saw nothing and ran. Jeffrey was already in the truck with the doors locked scared half to death. There are no animals in this state that make the sound we heard. It sounded like a giant creature. @@airthrowDBT
Interesting, any more details
Bob gymlan just in time for the new Year thanks for all your video content
Happy New Year Bob. I always love to hear from you. Wonderful artwork as well. Keep up the good work. One day the truth will be seen👽👽👽
Feel better soon❤ I would love to hear Les' input on this! Very interesting!
I'm sorry for the loss of your illustrator. His sketches always added a lot to your presentations of cryptid encounters. I hope you feel better soon enough to enjoy a Happy New Year!
Fred and his passionate artwork will be missed by many, and I wish you and his family good health and the strength to pull through this loss.
I really appreciate that you can present something like this and readily admit to the likelihood that it's pareidolia (or some other non-cryptid thing), while also being someone who argues in favor of Bigfoot-type creatures potentially existing. Not enough people in this world are willing to look at a thing from both sides like that. They may research their own position very well, but often they'll neglect the opposing argument simply because it's not what they believe (and that goes for anything, not just cryptids). I keep coming back to your channel in part because you present compelling evidence for Bigfoot's existence, but also because you'll say "or maybe [this other scenario] is what really happened." The best evidence can stand up to that kind of scrutiny.
I hope someone gets this to Les so he will talk about it on his TH-cam channel. I can’t remember if he’s already done the directors commentary or not for this episode.
RIP Fred❤
Best we ever had
I doubt such a famous survivalist would have missed such a massive creature so close to him
It's probably just a bush, or an easter egg
More, please.
Happy New Year!
Thank you, Bob and Fred, for all the amazing videos and stories you produced together. I hope Fred's work is immortalized with yours on this channel for many years to come. I would love to get an overall channel update covering your direction and prospective video ideas for the future
We all love your videos Bob. Worth watching over and over again as so much to learn from. You and Fred have provided your viewers with a way of looking at things that raises our analytical and critical thinking skills. Thanks for what you do.
I find your content entertaining. Credulous, but entertaining. This? A mighty leap.
You take care of yourself and get better soon. Your videos are solidly in my top five favorite channels. Glad you rose from your deathbed to shoot out this extremely entertaining video. You are a Super Trooper to be able to do this with the Deadly, Killer Man Flu!
Let thinkerthunker zoom in on that bob.. He's awesome at breaking down size and detail
I hope you're kidding 😅
@@jbird7782 nope
These days it seems like ThinkerThunker sees a Sasquatch literally everywhere. I get a little suspicious of any channel that doesn't occasionally go "I don't think this one is real" or "This one is inconclusive to me."
@@BinroWasRight yeah... I know what you mean
@@jbird7782he legitimized a video that was someone's film project that is on IMDb. TT doubled down and somehow came up with the idea that instead of believing the filmmaker he was going to say it was an actual real Sasquatch
Love this type of content. It isn’t always what is but what could be that makes the world interesting.
"A physician 200 years ago could watch today's open heart surgery and he would likely have assumed it was murder."
Amazing quote.
Hope you feel better Bob, thanks for the video 🤗
Hello Bob, Thanks for another great video brother. I am very sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and Fred's family. He will be missed greatly. Take care my friend. 🙏
Hey Bob, have you by any chance already analyzed the Todd Standing Big Foot photos or footage? Love your content.
Is this a joke? It's obviously light coming through the trees. That'ds why it looks bigger with exposure. And what you think Bigfoot has eyes like Venom? There's a reason why you see the "eye" blinking with the movement of the trees lol.
Yeah I know. This is just...yeah I dont even know what to say.. Ridiculous.
Theyre lost .. completely
Wishing you a speedy recovery, and thanking you for keeping an objective stance on the subject.
Hope you feel better soon Bob! I too have been sick with pneumonia and my ears are stopped as well. Saying prayers for you.. interesting video! Great catch! ❤
I believe it is a rock face. The land directly behind Les is elevated. It slopes down and drops off at the squatch looking rock.
Great Video as always. Thank You Bob.
Quite Profound Once Again Good Sir ! Much Gratitude Mr. Gymlan
