Well said. Probably because he doesn't want it, or he grew up Canadian. I am a Brit who moved to Canada 30 years ago and they definitely don't believe in themselves the same way. Too polite! But I digress. Les is great. You are right.
@@bobsingh7949 What did u mean,"they don't believe in themselves the same way"?(not looking for argument,just clarification) .I understand "Canuck's" have a rep for being ever so polite and now somewhat "PC"but they always struck me as having a good sense of self!!.. And this is from a former Londoner who has lived in the US for 21 yrs.. Maybe Les is or has been treading lightly ever since those Sasquatch Docu's with Todd Standing(who is somewhat obsessive but I believe&hope is Legit?) He wants to further and maintain his career(he gets to make a living at what he enjoys& the way of life)and is aware of the sceptics and people who might think he's lost the plot(I think Joe Rogan&his massive macho ego implied something like that?)Me personally I think Les is a logical,clued in individual&is aware of what's out there..And I'm sure he's correct.
Les has to be the most interesting man in the world. He’s a film maker, survivalist, musician, and Bigfoot hunter. We must protect this man at all costs!
P'shaw. This guy's entire, "The existence of these creatures is not yet proven. There's no proof. I remain skeptical.", horse shite is exactly that, super ignorant, false, horse shite! There most certainly is irrefutable proof, & of at least four different kinds, too. Period. There is. If you don't agree with that, it's only because you're either ignorant regarding the nature of the types of evidence, &/or regarding what evidence from those different types is available for scrutiny, or else you're just ruled by fear, in denial &/or willful ignorance. The idea that film/video, track, audio, & dental impression evidence cannot be examined & used to find irrefutable proof, at least of the fact that there is at least one as-yet unacknowledged by mainstream science species of primate living in the wilderness of North America(& most every other place in the world) is simply nonsense. It is simply not true. And the denial of the Sasquatch Genome Project & the over 100 samples they analyzed is also an absolutely illegitimate denial, they did everything correctly except A. trying to accomplish something unbelievably monumental as amateurs in the scientific community, & B. choose a subject for which regardless or how carefully & perfectly they conducted every step, that no journals would publish once they were informed of what the subject matter was. "The Sasquatch Genome Project; Truth Denied", by Scott Carpenter is a very good book that explains all of this in greater detail. And one final hangup many folks have surrounds the standard skeptical questions we've all heard repeated a thousand times, & so most folks don't think to question the questions themselves, but closer scrutiny reveals that in regards to all of them, either there are very good answers to the question which prove the state of things are actually not strange & are as we should expect them to be, or else the question is predicated by completely untrue presuppositions & false premises, & don't actually deserve weight in the first place. And furthermore Les's denials ring hollow, & if I'm incorrect about his sincerity than the situation is actually even worse than if he's being deceptive. But to begin with, I don't believe for one single second that in spite of everything, Les has any iota of remaining doubt that these creatures ineed exist, in spite of all of his own experiences, & all of the sincere friends he has who have had encounters, & all the other good eye-witnesses he's spoken to as well, & his awareness of Native American & First Nations knowledge & insistence of the reality of these beings, & his close friendship with David Paulides, & he has mentioned ThinkerThunker before, so it's almost certain that he has seen either his, or else Bill Muuns multiple videos in which they both prove beyond legitimate question or denial that Patty, from the PG Film, & other subjects caught on film or video cannot be a human in a costume &/or makeup, any more than legitimate footage of wolves, or beavers, or even gorillas walking around bipedally could somehow potentially be humans in costumes &/or makeup, & for the same reasons, which is that no human could fit the dimensions of the subjects filmed & move around in proper imitation of those subjects, & to even argue that a human somehow could is the worst sort of clear folly, as it is just simply not possible. And if I'm incorrect, & in spite of all this knowledge & experience & much, much more that Les has in regards to these beings, he truly remains at all skeptical that they exist, & he thinks that it might all just be based on lies & hoaxes & incredible types of errors, & in reality there is no true species behind the phenomenon at all, well then that would be even worse, even more unforgivable, than Les lying about whether he believes, because it would indicate an inexplicable level of stupidity & gullibility on his part; gullibility in being convinced of the absolute nonsense lie that there is any legitimate reason to be skeptical of these beings existence But again, I don't believe for one second that Les is that stupid or gullible, which means he is constantly lying about his knowledge in order to pander to a crowd of completely ignorant idiots & even racists(to discount all the claims & insistence of indigenous peoples does absolutely require a level of racism, even if an unconscious one, especially since everyone who denies the existence of these beings despite that native insistence chooses to accept without question all sorts of western scientists word regarding the nature of a great many supposed truths about reality, some of which are legitimate but many of which are actually not) folks who are all either completely faulty in their logic or else are extremely fearful & willfully ignorant & so blind to an obvious reality, the fundamental existence of has no business being questioned by any sane individual. So now tell me how great this guy is? He's certainly not bravely honest, is he? Unless he really is an idiot with a short circuit, which I doubt, but it's either one or the other?
I once met Lee Stroud within the lake system in northern Ontario a decade or so ago. Unfortunately I was only told it was him after I shook this hand. While I was on the hardest survival trip of my life, here he was on vacation with this kid in the middle freaking nowhere.
@@Shaggylicious I wanna see Liver King eat like Survivorman for a day like others do with him. It's one thing to eat testicles, it's a different level to eat random cow fat that was hanging on a wall in a middle of nowhere cabin in Argentina for who knows how long!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Please please don’t let this be the last that you do regarding Sasquatch!! You have an audience that respects you and that’s needed in this subject! I hope you continue with more and more reports of this amazing subject of Sasquatch! ❤️
Jerry Thomas Wow when did YOU learn to predict the future?? I just have an open mind! Maybe you should try it! You’ll probably have more fun in life! Just sayin!!
Hey Les Stroud, I grew up watching you on tv with my dad and I've watched every single episode of your show. You're like a second father too me. I wrote down all the survival methods and tips you talked about in a journal, because you are my hero.
Real *sort of* he too pumps out plenty of BS drama like pretending mountain lions or even bobcats are a threat to humans! Laughed my ass off for that. Only city kids would fall for that nonsense but I guess that's most of his audience.
@@stevem7571 Trout attack ppl too sometimes, the point is it's asinine to devote any thought to it as it has happened about a dozen times in the West in 150 yr.s. Exposure, falling off a cliff and such are what kill ppl in the wilderness not cats in North America. Mosquitoes are a billion times bigger threat.
@@stevem7571 It's what we can expect from TV shows and news. No one notices when a falling coconut kills someone which happens 6X more often than shark attack fatalities but you hear about every attack no matter how minor anywhere on Earth. I've slept on the ground in the open in mountain lion wilderness a 1000 times and only wished I'd be fortunate enough to see any more than their tracks in the mud. I've know hundreds of others with extensive wilderness experience and not a even single scary incident ever mentioned. It's laughable to anyone with experience.
Okay I grew up in a northern Alberta oil town called Rainbow Lake. This town is in the middle of the forest, it's extremely remote and even more so back then (in the 90s). It's so isolated and small there's no police or firefighters or anything, and often there was grizzlies in town and we weren't allowed to go out for recess, and instead had to attend assemblies training us to never go near the massive cylinder live bear traps around town. That's how remote this place is. There's trails in the woods, going up more north, and there's no roads or highways or anything out there except dense forest and a few of these trails closer to town that people would hike or snowmobile on. Out in those woods though, I remember on multiple occasions walking with my dad and a few times with my school for field trips, and we'd see lights out in the trees, way off the trails into the bush. During the day, just super bright lights shining from somewhere through the trees, coming from places where there should be no one. Silence, and they'd move from place to place. As a kid I thought they were flashlights but had no real understanding - they didn't look like flashlights but that's how my mind made sense of them. Some parents and adults would say it was just "natives in the woods"(doing what?), but never any other real explanation. These lights were certainly there and weren't ever explained. Very, very ominous feelings were associated with them, like a a fear and to get away. A teacher of mine said it was because we sensed someone was out there. So again, everyone knew but the answers were vague and nonsensical. It was known and accepted, everyone in town knew about these lights but no one really talked about it seriously. But local native people ( there's a LOT of reserves and cree people up there) would always say never to go to the lights and to leave when you saw them. They associated them with spirits. It's so strange because I see it now in my mind, and I still just don't know what it was. Les talking about the orbs reminded me of it.
Sorry if this is a long story, I just don't know how to tell it in a shorter way. Sometime around mid 2016, my son and I were hiking in area of Desolation Wilderness in the Sierra Nevada's that I had never been to before and we were heading back to the car. It was later in the day, and the shadows were starting to get longer. I spotted this just enormous boulder with a tree that appeared to be growing out of the boulder and I decided to go off trail to take pictures of the rock and tree and the shadows that were being cast. We were roughly 150 yards off of the trail and were taking pictures basically around the boulder in a 360 pattern. After about 20 -25 minutes or so, we decided we'd better get a move on, as the sun was setting and it was getting dark. In a bonehead move, we realized that we couldn't find the trail, we hiked towards the direction we thought we had come but the trail was nowhere to be found. I told my son that we needed to stop for a minute, breathe, not freak out and panic because we were essentially lost. I decided that we would walk for about 10 minutes down the mountain and then we would stop, we'd both do 360 turns in opposite directions to see if we recognized anything, footprints, cairns, other people, anything. We had enough food and water for overnight if that was the case, but my cell phone was close to dead, so I turned it off in case I needed it the next day. We had no service so no need for the phone to be on. Okay, so after 3 stops and about 30 minutes of being lost and doing these 360 turns, it was very close to dark now and we were of the mindset that we were going to have to find a place to hunker down for the night and started looking for some type of wind break and wood we could use for a fire. We had been stopped for about 5 minutes just looking around trying to hear a car, a person, a river, anything we thought could be of help. The tree line was quite a ways away, and we were just about to head towards them when we heard the loudest, deepest guttural scream that made the hair on the back of our necks stand up. We looked at each other in disbelief as to what ever it was that we had heard. Not sure it was panic, but it was a startling feeling as it was unlike anything I've ever heard or experienced before. Because of the area we were in, Desolation Wilderness, and they call it that for good reason, we couldn't pinpoint where the scream came from. After looking around for a couple of seconds or so, I saw what I thought was a cairn, and told my son that I thought I found the trail. We started to run towards it, and sure enough, there was a trail and while we weren't sure if it was the trail we were looking for, it was a trail. We started to jog as we were losing light rapidly. When we got to the parking area, it was dark and we hopped in the car and locked the doors, I still laugh about that part. As we were getting back on the road out of Desolation, my son looks over at me and says, "Dad, I think that that was a Bigfoot." I'll never know for sure I guess, but the scream we heard doesn't match up to any animal or human that I have ever heard of and I pretty much know what all the animals in that area sound like. It was so guttural and deep(I'm guessing it lasted at least 20 seconds) that it just wasn't human or a bear or mountain lion or even an owl, it was something big. We laughed a bit and decided that whatever it was, was telling us that we were in his house and we needed to leave, and in doing so, I saw the cairn and we high tailed it out of there. I have gone back to the area on several occasions with others, but have never had that experience since, so I just don't know what it was, I just don't know.
man, I want to believe you, and i feel you are genuine but this is the type of thing that I need to experience to believe. I have heard ghost stories etc from people who imo have no reason to blatantly lie! but I need to see it with my own eyes first.
@@PonyFoot123 I get that man, and as I said, I didn't see anything, but I know what I heard and it was loud, guttural and down right menacing and definitely made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. It's something I wont ever forget that's for sure.
@@PonyFoot123 even if you had one of these experiences you'd still be asking yourself did this really happen , it is just hard to accept or understand something that defies explanation even when seen with ones very own eyes .
So thrilled to see you supporting this subject, buddy. You’re too intelligent to dismiss it as mythical. We know it’s real but I’m glad the public thinks it’s mythical because I’m afraid of what would happen to the species
Glad your back. Love this Series We need to get to the bottom of this phenomenon of Bigfoot.The phoney shows are so lame. We need your straight forward approach.
- I'd almost like to see some of those people go through a really close encounter like either of mine. I'm pretty sure they couldn't handle it but it would be cruel. I shouldn't wish that on anyone but the way some people act almost makes me want to.
Missing 411 The Hunted.... has a account of interactions with unknown creatures all recorded... Ron Morehead has an interesting video in you tube of his trips to hunt the Sierras while sharing juicy items like the Sasquatch language.

Profane experience that I'll never forget
@@jonturner8516 C'mon Jon. I used to own a real Yeti. This is 100% true. I used to take it into the woods and people would comment on my Yeti and admire that I had one ... until I told them how much I paid for my Yeti. My Yeti was very comfortable in the woods and didn't require a lot of upkeep - I could afford that. Alas, I took my Yeti down to Arizona's Sonoran desert and things didn't go well down there. My Yeti simply couldn't handle the desert terrain. I don't own my Yeti anymore and sometimes miss it, but it did go to a good home. I sold it to a friend ywho lives very close to the woods I used to take my Yeti. My friend really likes the Yeti too. Sorry, I have no pics and no vids of my Yeti. :-( Yeti is a mountain bike brand.
@@ScubaSteveCanada OMG! You're hilarious Stevie! Seriously, that was some funny shit bro. The way you fooled me into thinking you had a real Yeti! You've made me change my mind. There's no such thing as Sasquatch, silly me! Punchline: I'm actually lieing! You're a bumboy! If you're going to come back at me then at least ask an adult to help you rather than your 3 year old sister. 😳🤢👀
Mr. Les Stroud, I like your work. I have followed your Survivorman series. Big fan. Please, keep pursuing the Bigfoot phenomenon legion. If their is a person that can bring solid proof to the scientific world that Bigfoot exist, it is you!
I'm in Les! I've dealt with all my critics and the non-listeners of my personal outdoor experiences... They always seem to know more, but they just need to be in control. I've had a visual encounter, multiple other encounters, and mindspeak!
Your non bias way of exploring the possibility of a new species is appreciated les! Keep up the great work and thank you for your hard work and all the knowledge you have devoted your life to give to nature lovers like myself
I can't get enough of Les Stroud, especially the season of Survivorman that focused on Bigfoot. I have that season on an SD card that is carried with me at all times. I can't tell you how many people I've shown those episodes to. If Les reads this, you need to do another batch of episodes on Bigfoot. Amazing stuff.
Actually doing those episodes with Todd Standing has hurt his credibility...Todd Standing is a known Fraudster/Hoaxer He should of done his research before letting him spew his lies on his show
@@Whiteshell204 He quantified time and time again on the show that he wasn't there to prove or disprove anything. Just to hear what the people had to share about their experiences and knowledge bases and open discussion. Anyone who discredits Les for listening to all interest groups regarding the subject and being unbiased in his approach clearly needs to give their head a shake and remember we're chasing a giant ape in the woods of North America...too most people none of us have credibility
@@joshstewart6741 You missed my point completely..no one is dis-crediting Les for his abilities or what he has done in the past....but here's how it works. Les who is a very reputable person lets someone like Standing on his show...at that point he was known hoaxer only to profit from fakery....people see that he's on Survivoman....and would think "this is a solid person...I mean Les has him on his show?" But it was the opposite...he used Les as leverage to get backers for his bogus movie he sells on streaming services to continue the bigfoot hoax...that is my issue. In the bigfoot research community it was a major shock that Les didn't vet him properly that's all I'm saying
@@Whiteshell204 hmmm, that's mostly what I took away from your earlier comment. Oh well, Todd standing or not. Credibility amongst bigfoot enthusiastist or not. I'll watch the heck outta whatever he puts up on the subject
Really? You thought Expedition Bigfoot was real! That show has been completely debunked and exposed. It was all filmed on a ranch, none of this site the were surprised to "discover" are part of ranch's landmarks and that mine is an old gold mine that tourist visit all the time and not some dangerous cinnabar mine. There's more but that covers the basics.
@@AARONANKRUM Expedition Bigfoot - to me - is shameful. Its well produced but - as other have pointed out - fabricated junk. Moreover by participating in that program they denigrate the real work of people like Les Stroud who go out and do real fieldwork. Enjoy the show as entertainment but it isn't for real.
So cool I came across this video. I used to live in Portland, Oregon and I had many an encounter 60 miles east of Portland. I went camping every weekend for 5 years out at Bagby Hot Springs. I’ve heard the whoops, tree snaps, seen the rock/boulder throwing first hand and the stacked/angled teepee tree limbs. One used to mess with me at night when I was in my tent from time to time. Had some sleepless nights sometimes. I took a spiritual approach to my camping by speaking/thinking to it when I entered its territory. I think we developed a relationship of sorts. It did not want me there, but it knew I wasn’t going to try to harm it or bring attention to it. I left it alone and for the most part it left me alone also. I was not a danger. However it let me know I was not welcome. I was trespassing. But, I was not willing to leave through its fear tactics. This may sound kind of weird, but I think it respected my decision not to be intimidated. I am not a brave person. I just wanted the same right it enjoyed…doing what it wanted to do in peace. To exist together without any problems. This is why I believe no harm came to me. Why I was not run out. I truly think it could feel my emotion and intent.
It's fun to watch Les evolve with each episode. From skeptic to full on knower. Many don't know that in the Smokey Mountain episode with Scott Carpenter he experienced mind speak. He approached this topic the way it needed to be approached. Nothing but respect for what he's done for the subject.
Glad I’m not the only one going back and watching these. This topic has been a favorite of mine for a couple years now. I really appreciate les’ approach. I try to be the same way. I’ve heard too many stories from people that can’t all be lying or mistaken
@@albertfcb6654 The reason why this series is compelling is that for those who have followed Les's career, we know he is a no-BS, pragmatic guy. To appreciate this show, it's necessary to have first seen many Survivorman episodes to understand the context of who Les Stroud is. When you know who he is, you know that he is very likely not making any of it up.
@@Greg-lw4zb ive Seen all Episoden 2-3 Times. Wasnt talking about les but all Bigfoot Guys. Les never Said He Seen a Bigfoot for real, only Strange noises and stuff
You haven't heard of AdBlock Plus yet? Me n wife both had it downloaded for at least 7 years now and RARELY EVER see ads anymore even on youtube videos! and HUGE BONUS of AdBlock Plus is LEGITIMATELY a 100% free download, free updates, and no adware bs like those other lying adblocking software/apps slip in on us .... just make sure you get the download from the OFFICIAL AdBlock Plus website, and NEVER trust those 3rd-party-shareware type sites
Yes, these ads are ruining my experience of TH-cam. Ads on tv, ads along our freeways, ads in our tv episodes. Kinda like the phone scammers ringing our phone from a non working number. TH-cam time for the ads to go away. Or maybe we need to say goodbye to TH-cam.
@@Notellemkrik1776 I agree with you COMPLETELY! Aside from ads being put in our face everywhere, what you mentioned about the phone calls is called spoofing. They will program their phone to give a no-longer-in-service or a totally fake phone number that shows up on your caller id, they RARELY ever leave a message on your answering machine, and yep when you try calling the number back, that number will either always ring busy but most most often the numbers will say "the number you have dialed is no longer in service." Not sure if you know, but email providers like yahoo and a lot of others do this too whereby providing users the ability to create a fake email address that shows up to you instead of their real email address. Goodbye to youtube? YOU BET! Me n wife been growing more n more SICK of being ghost banned! If you dont know already, this is where you think your comment posted but it only shows you posted it while youre viewing it from the user account which your signed in and made the comment with. Countless people been finding out the reason they never got a reply is because NO ONE even saw their comment. We dont use vulgar language, dont threaten people, dont go around insulting/harassing people, and dont etc etc but just one of things that causes you to get ghost banned is if enough people simply dont like what you say and they report you, this will cause googles/youtube to put you on the list to ghost ban you from certain videos. Sorry for the book but we want others to know whats going on and then spread the word even though ghost banning has been around for quite a few years, not many know it because of youtubes CLEVER way of tricking you into thinking your comment actually posted when it didn't

After witnessing two seperate insane UFO encounters in my lifetime, I don't doubt you for a second Les. We don't know a damn thing about this pale blue dot and our place in the universe.
@@loriwolff4115 ~ Me and my wife were abducted from our home in TX while awake about 8 yrs ago. They were 7 ft. tall reptillian beings wearing black hooded robes with 3 huge scaley claws for hands. They worked on me then showed me around their ship. There were little white looking beings but couldnt see their faces because of some blurry blotches over their faces. Me and my wife appeared on the ship seperately so she spent her time looking for me. I was extremely excited the whole time. My wife got mad when I asked them if I could stay. I would definitely do it again.
Personally, I have not made up my mind on the whole, as you put it, 'bigfoot phenomena' but I do find it and your stories fascinating. Keep on making these Les and I will keep watching!
@@darrenmcdonald5373 Perhaps because there is so much creepypasta stuff being written and posted on YT and everywhere else, that the “believers” are taking in as actual encounters?
Got dropped off in the middle of the Amazon jungle and had to spend a night alone out there. The next day as he walked to the nearest Indian village he was followed by a jaguar. That guy has amazing guts. I grew up in South America and believe me the jungle is the spookiest place on Earth at night. It's way scarier than any Forest
It’a a difference of perspective. In the jungle you know there’s shit out there flying and crawling around all night. You can hear the millions of insects drone on and on incessantly. In the forests of North America it’s different, it’s quiet and ominous. Anything that breaks that quiet is definitely unnerving and worth mentioning. Again, depends on what bothers you more.
In north america at worst youll get a black bear running from you like a little bitch (cuz they are all as scared of people as birds are) but for 99% of those sounds in 90% of north america, (excluding alaska) they are harmless animals/insects... as opposed to amazon, where 90% of the sounds you hear are shit that can kill you. Sorry, if you camp out in the amazon with North American national park camping equipment/experiencre chances are you're gonna die. In NA 100s of thousands of people camp every year and you may get a couple deaths cause by wildlife out of all of them.
@@joshuapatrick682 You're absolutely right about that. The absence of noise in a seemingly endless dark void being broken can be terrifying even if the cause is harmless. Its the contrast in your senses that amplify the experience. I've never been to a jungle but I can imagine its horrifying in its own way. I assume its more of a constant fear as the noises never cease rather than long periods of quiet perforated by unsettling breaks by sticks or creepy calls n such. The wilderness as a whole is just beautiful and spooky. I love it all.
Screw people! Most aren't ready for the truth! People are so F'd in the head they will be out there trying to hunt them. I say leave the forest beings alone.
I’ve always believed that humans have a sixth sense. Like when people say, “it feels like I’m being watched,” or like how Les mentioned the hair on the back of your neck stands up. It’s like humans can sense things they don’t even consciously notice.
Absolutely and most completely fill their minds with useless information or other distractions, there no counting for how much actual sensitivity ability most of use humans have lost over time!!! Yes we’ve advanced for the better but so many try to laugh at or such down anything that’s uncomfortable or doesn’t conform!! Virtue, values, laws....etc we absolutely must have, however remember how until January 1st 1995 many thought the tell of rogue or killer waves 🌊 just appearing in the oceans and seas was nonsensical and then scientific equipment measured the huge one in the North Sea 🌊 that crashed into the oil rig and now satellites are watching them happen all the time!! They’re only explainable through quantum physics and that’s why we must be open minded with critical thought about Sasquatch and other things but never just dismiss everything as we can’t just accept anything without critical and open minded thinking!!!!
@@JesusMedrano12 er. That's not what the "It feels like I'm being watched" sensation is. It's your standard, empirical senses and instinct picking up details you don't consciously notice, like if previously there was a bunch of background noise in a forest that slowly goes quiet, you don't realize it has happened but your brain has, and it's aware that generally animals only stop making noises if they're trying to hide, meaning it's likely there's some manner of predator nearby. Nothing as "mystical" as the Force or any other sort of supernatural explanation.
As I mentioned in my reply to Medrano, that's exactly what's happening. Your senses *have* noticed, but it's not something you're actively aware of. We're taking in massive amounts of information all the time and the brain is deciding its priority, and everything that isn't relevant to your immediate circumstances is filtered to the subconscious mind rather than the conscious mind. It's the only way we can function because otherwise we'd be forced to give *every* stimulus the same level of concentration. If memory serves that's more or less what's happening to people with the most debilitating cases of autism(I think it's autism, it may be another developmental disorder), their brains are processing every stimulus as if it requires immediate attention.
I have waited for this episode for months! I'm so glad you premised it with "if your waiting to throw a bucket of water on this subject, just turn it off now"...Thank you Les, for being respectful to the FACT. They exist.
Mr.Stroud I enjoy your journeys about bigfoot. I live in south Mississippi. I quit counting after the 13th sighting. Saw one 2 weeks ago. They live in these woods around me.
I love that part with Todd where he’s surrounded “if that’s real” it’s scary as shit, I can’t help but laugh when at the very beginning of the clip he’s yelling “HA Heewaw kinda karate style then says “you want some”!!! Freaking great!
Thank you for investigating this subject. Les Stroud you are honest and credible.... appreciate your skills on this subject! I think it's something we don't know about, for sure, yet! 👍
You really can't fully grapple with this stuff until you've gone out in a heavily wooded area in the middle of no where for a couple nights and had an experience for yourself. My buddy and i definitely are now believers
@Sub if you are against Antifa and BLM Orangutans apparently have been reported approaching trail cams from the back. And who knows they could bury their dead. But those are both the best counter arguments to its existence.
@@hellknightmordred7655 Orangutans and Chimps are soooo stupid, they don't even know how to build a shelter to keep out of the rain and will literally, sit out in the open getting soaking wet. Tell me, can't you think of one other reason why an Orangutan would approach a trail cam from behind? There are several, the least of which is trying to hide from the lens.
@@ScubaSteveCanada i got this information from A great ape researcher so they might not be as stupid as you think. Also there is cunning and then their is smart. Don't confuse the two. Chimps also can register threats and their surroundings way faster then any human. Look up chimp memory test. If bigfoot does exist we can also assume its much more intelligent then your average great ape.
@Sub if you are against Antifa and BLM Ever find a bear skeleton or mountain lion skeleton? I haven't and have roamed the Rocky Mountains of Wyoming for years. Have found many elk, deer, antelope and cattle remains but never a bear or lion.
@@elkhunter76 solid point. I’ve only ever found deer skeletons. Have never found fox, coyote, bear, or bird skeletons. And I’ve been on and off trail hiking (pretty consistently in the woods several times a month since I was a small child). I’m not in the position to say there is or isn’t an animal like Bigfoot lurking. I’ve just never had an experience. But there are some compelling points being made here.
There will be always be things we can't even science can't explain , I myself have experienced this light/fire ball phenomena , and I am from Asia , I like watching these shows remembered watching on TV but I was then little kid , forgive me my English isn't good . So my experience goes like , it was almost 12 in night I was talking on phone with my fiancee and all of sudden like 50 meter away I saw something glowing in dark but I thought it was like a firefly , but that little light grow in size of a tennis ball and started to give flames and started to hover a feet and two up and down four and five times in very slow motion , after 5 mins it just vanished right before my eyes .
I've had a weird experience with lights in the woods once. Was driving up Mount Sicker on Vancouver Island B.C, was getting close to dark and looked along the top of the trees and saw what appeared to be a line of lights like 3 cars driving in a straight line high in the tree tops then all of a sudden vanish. Had 3 other people in the vehicle witness it as well. Will never forget it.
For any out there who may not believe in the subject, I would like to share a personal unexplainable occurrence. When i was younger around 11 or 12 i believe, i was out exploring in the woods out in rural Oklahoma behind where our family lived off in the middle of nowhere. After walking through the woods for quite some time I found a big old oak tree that looked absolutely perfect for climbing around 30 to 40ft tall or so. I started to climb and had made it maybe 10 to 15 feet up and I heard a twig snap, i got extremely nervous because in that part of the woods we have a lot of bobcats and i feared the worst, in a rush i frantically climbed faster adrenaline fueling my every movement and i made it damn near to the top when one of the branches snapped, time slowed as i realized i was falling, i reached out trying to grab anything in front of me to no avail. And i remember seeing the ground getting closer and in an instant i saw a flash of something burly and brown but do to fear of dying or whatever I fainted before i hit the ground. I woke up disoriented and confused as to how i was still alive i had just fallen 30 or more feet face down and yet i was alive, then as I'm sitting there on the ground looking at my bloody fingers from trying to grab the branches i realized i wasn't in pain. Like my body didn't feel like it hit the ground with a heavy impact i just felt the pain in my fingers and a few spots from hitting branches on the way down. As i collected my thoughts i started to remember that i had seen something big and brown move beneath me and a realization hit me. Whatever it was whether guardian angel or Bigfoot, something caught me before i hit the ground that day, otherwise how did i sustain almost no injuries from something that should have been potentially fatal. I was unconscious before i hit the ground from how scared i was and maybe he was sensing my fear and came to help. To this day i am convinced Bigfoot is real. And for anyone who doesn't believe, well me being alive is enough proof for me. And as an adult i think that maybe the twig snapping wasnt a bobcat at all, it could very well have been the Bigfoot investigating what was going on from the noise I was making!
You know what, I'm convinced now. This story from a random stranger that doesn't even actually mention seeing bigfoot must be undeniable proof. For real man, your story is that you saw something brown when you fell out of a tree as a child. That's it. Any connection to bigfoot is just children doing what children do with scary events.
Just wanted to stop by & say thank you for all that you have done! Taught me alot growing up. From being able to strive outdoors and fundamental life skills. -Wish you the best!
Excellent video, I’m a believer. Experienced one myself as a young girl in the mountains of California. Up in the mountains past Paradise California, I was 15. I was scared but very curious.
Thanks! I spent the day watching the series and directors conversations to this point. Well done and thought provoking. I love the approach taken, and the scenery captured on film was breathtaking.
Well the fact that this was the last one on the topic he has found his answer and it makes since that he doesn’t want to reveal it further. When you see the beauty in nature the way he portrays that he does why would he go any further and risk hurting it. @Les Stroud thank you for years of hard work and teachings
Les, I am so GLAD to see you are BACK!!! And I look forward to seeing more shows from you, especially the shows on Sasquatch. I am a huge fan and watched all of your Survivorman series. I am especially interested (as I fully trust everything you say about your experiences asI know you just don’t fall for someone’s suggestions!!!) in your Bigfoot series!!! THANKYOU for everything you do, and for all the hard work you do bringing these series to us!!!! You are truly AMAZING and BRAVE man!!!!!
I have a cousin whos half hoopa indian he lives in the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation in Trinity Klamath California he says the Elders of the tribe tell stories of Sasquatch in their area the elders speak of them as being another tribe and they interact in fact some of the elders know how to speak their language
🥱😂😂😂. Same old crap. No proof. If they can just speak the language, then certainly they can video the creatures. Wouldn’t you think? But they can’t because it’s all made up
Les your not crazy, I'm from northern Ontario, and here's what I can tell you, elementals/ beings are real, watched you from the very beginning, glad to see your back. 🍻
Les Stroud is an incredibly cool and intelligent guy. i LOVED his show Surviorman..and he also had a show where he cooks impressive gourmet food with only stuff found naturally in the environment he’s in,,,he’s so knowledgeable and realistic in all the things he does, love this guy!
I have a friend who is an acupuncturist and holistic healer. He is one of the most sincere people I have ever met and a very private person. He told me that he was visiting his brother in New York and took his brother's little dog to a state park for the afternoon. He was tired from the drive and dozed off beside a large fallen tree a short distance from the hiking trail. He was awakened by the shivering of the dog. He realized it wasn't cold and the dog was trembling in fear (this dog was usually a barker but didn't make a sound, it just kept shaking), so he looked around to see what was terrifying the dog and saw a very large figure walking just down the hill from the path in the moonlight. As he watched it moving, the thing swiveled its head in a very unnatural way and looked in their direction with glowing red eyes. He was in disbelief, thinking he was dreaming. It continued on its way and eventually turned its head forward. He said it had a conical shaped head, was about 9 ft tall and covered in dark heavy fur. I don't think he even told his brother the story. He told me because I once asked him if he thought Bigfoot was real. Even though he told me the story, he never said Yes or No. That was his way of answering the question.
Les. Have been a fan since the early 2000s and watched just about every Survivorman episode. I was aware of your encounters both in Ontario and on the Coast of Alaska with what certainly were both Sasquatches. However when you came out with your Bigfoot series a few years ago my respect for you went to a high level for having the balls to take on this subject, full well knowing a majority of your fans and casual watchers would think you to be nuts. Society and the stay in the lab academia has always stayed away from this subject, just casting it aside without doing any investigating of what is really going on, and knowing the thousands of years Native American interactions they have had with the Sasquatch, let alone the pioneer stories from the previous 3 centuries. People have become conditioned also by the perfect haired news casters that would do a 2 minute segment on this subject from time to time, only to snicker and make jokes about the people they interviewed. This is a great quest you are on and you are doing it in a very appropriate method. I myself have had a sighting, circa 1975 on opening day of deer season in Roscommon County, Michigan. I have had numerous encounters that were even more amazing than my long distance sighting, both in Michigan where I grew up and here in SW Ohio where I now live. I have friends that have seen them close up and it scared them to no end and one even stopped hunting on that day in Michigan 20 years ago. So I am a knower and nothing can change that. I am amazed that your sons did not wake you up while the hitting of the cabin took place. And this is a common trait of these hominids, which I imagine is usually a game to them. It has happened to me also. I look forward to more information on this Oregon area. It takes a long time for the Sasquatch to get accustomed to strangers in their territory. And it may take numerous trips before you actually see one, or at least a silhouette behind a tree or bushes at night. I would continue with that guitar and harmonica and they will know it is you and you mean no harm to them, and they will come around. But it is always on their terms. Best of Luck and continued success. Chuck in Ohio.

I had one encounter and this is exactly what happened. I was staying at a remote cabin (only used to stay for a few days at a time, but covid happened and I stayed out there for a month and a half), and a month into it I had an encounter. Crazy stuff man.
@@MrKharper123 I think researcher Christopher Noel from Vermont who has been studying the Sasquatch for a long time has penned articles or even a book relating a lot of their behavior to autistic like traits. Who knows. I do know they are masters of the forest and keenly adapted in both body build, locomotion, and athletic ability, great night vision, and enough smarts to dominate their environment. They have a huge distrust of the small people. However their weak spot may be a tremendous curiosity us.
I've been watching your show for 16+ years. Survivorman helped me get through alot of nights while I was going through a very dark time in my life as a teenager and young adult.
I'm so glad that you will lead us to a different avenue from your endeavors in the vast woodlands. I believe you, I believe in BF, and I believe this will be an epic journey with you! Thanks Les!
I've never seen a Sasquatch here in Oregon, however I know elderly loggers who said they've heard large unusual beasts while sleeping on work sites, and they have came to work sites and had their equipment dragged around and log piles spread back across the entire hill they removed them from. Some people might say eco terrorists but they had tractors literally dragged through the dirt 20 feet or more. and logs that were removed with heavy equipment were just unloaded and replaced manually some how
Yep,I've heard them stories quite a few times..And I think this happens more often than not,but goes unreported..The Foremen and Bosses at the Logging camps really don't want to hear about anything that may bring in the local Authorities,and if proven credible,would mean their logging Op being closed down.. Much easier to listen to those who say they've had some kind of experience &then tell them to"anyway,u had better get back to work"!
And full 50 gallon drums thrown off down the mountain. And log truck drivers seeing and occasionally hitting one. I live in OR and have had numerous experiences with them over the years of hunting.
@Sandy V. There was a time where I would have seriously doubted you, but 2 years ago on a country road in Warren oregon on a daily trip to a barn to take care of a horse I saw a big black rectangle floating above a house to my right. I stopped on the road and it swooped down silently and flew over my car slowly and disappeared. my pregnant roommate at the time saw it as well. I still have no clue wtf I saw
I dont think les gets the credit he deserves for all of the great content, shows, and videos he has.. thank you and keep it up man!
More, or Les.
True
Well said. Probably because he doesn't want it, or he grew up Canadian. I am a Brit who moved to Canada 30 years ago and they definitely don't believe in themselves the same way.
Too polite! But I digress.
Les is great. You are right.
@@bobsingh7949 What did u mean,"they don't believe in themselves the same way"?(not looking for argument,just clarification)
.I understand "Canuck's" have a rep for being ever so polite and now somewhat "PC"but they always struck me as having a good sense of self!!..
And this is from a former Londoner who has lived in the US for 21 yrs..
Maybe Les is or has been treading lightly ever since those Sasquatch Docu's with Todd Standing(who is somewhat obsessive but I believe&hope is Legit?)
He wants to further and maintain his career(he gets to make a living at what he enjoys& the way of life)and is aware of the sceptics and people who might think he's lost the plot(I think Joe Rogan&his massive macho ego implied something like that?)Me personally I think Les is a logical,clued in individual&is aware of what's out there..And I'm sure he's correct.
Talented musician also! 31:30
Les has to be the most interesting man in the world. He’s a film maker, survivalist, musician, and Bigfoot hunter. We must protect this man at all costs!
Yes sir 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Bigfoot researcher. No one should hunt Bigfoot.
@@TheHypernaught No one _can_ hunt bigfoot. Because it doesn’t exist
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
P'shaw. This guy's entire, "The existence of these creatures is not yet proven. There's no proof. I remain skeptical.", horse shite is exactly that, super ignorant, false, horse shite!
There most certainly is irrefutable proof, & of at least four different kinds, too. Period. There is. If you don't agree with that, it's only because you're either ignorant regarding the nature of the types of evidence, &/or regarding what evidence from those different types is available for scrutiny, or else you're just ruled by fear, in denial &/or willful ignorance.
The idea that film/video, track, audio, & dental impression evidence cannot be examined & used to find irrefutable proof, at least of the fact that there is at least one as-yet unacknowledged by mainstream science species of primate living in the wilderness of North America(& most every other place in the world) is simply nonsense. It is simply not true.
And the denial of the Sasquatch Genome Project & the over 100 samples they analyzed is also an absolutely illegitimate denial, they did everything correctly except A. trying to accomplish something unbelievably monumental as amateurs in the scientific community, & B. choose a subject for which regardless or how carefully & perfectly they conducted every step, that no journals would publish once they were informed of what the subject matter was.
"The Sasquatch Genome Project; Truth Denied", by Scott Carpenter is a very good book that explains all of this in greater detail.
And one final hangup many folks have surrounds the standard skeptical questions we've all heard repeated a thousand times, & so most folks don't think to question the questions themselves, but closer scrutiny reveals that in regards to all of them, either there are very good answers to the question which prove the state of things are actually not strange & are as we should expect them to be, or else the question is predicated by completely untrue presuppositions & false premises, & don't actually deserve weight in the first place.
And furthermore Les's denials ring hollow, & if I'm incorrect about his sincerity than the situation is actually even worse than if he's being deceptive.
But to begin with, I don't believe for one single second that in spite of everything, Les has any iota of remaining doubt that these creatures ineed exist, in
spite of all of his own experiences, & all of the sincere friends he has who have had encounters, & all the other good eye-witnesses he's spoken to as well, & his awareness of Native American & First Nations knowledge & insistence of the reality of these beings, & his close friendship with David Paulides, & he has mentioned ThinkerThunker before, so it's almost certain that he has seen either his, or else Bill Muuns multiple videos in which they both prove beyond legitimate question or denial that Patty, from the PG Film, & other subjects caught on film or video cannot be a human in a costume &/or makeup, any more than legitimate footage of wolves, or beavers, or even gorillas walking around bipedally could somehow potentially be humans in costumes &/or makeup, & for the same reasons, which is that no human could fit the dimensions of the subjects filmed & move around in proper imitation of those subjects, & to even argue that a human somehow could is the worst sort of clear folly, as it is just simply not possible.
And if I'm incorrect, & in spite of all this knowledge & experience & much, much more that Les has in regards to these beings, he truly remains at all skeptical that they exist, & he thinks that it might all just be based on lies & hoaxes & incredible types of errors, & in reality there is no true species behind the phenomenon at all, well then that would be even worse, even more unforgivable, than Les lying about whether he believes, because it would indicate an inexplicable level of stupidity & gullibility on his part; gullibility in being convinced of the absolute nonsense lie that there is any legitimate reason to be skeptical of these beings existence
But again, I don't believe for one second that Les is that stupid or gullible, which means he is constantly lying about his knowledge in order to pander to a crowd of completely ignorant idiots & even racists(to discount all the claims & insistence of indigenous peoples does absolutely require a level of racism, even if an unconscious one, especially since everyone who denies the existence of these beings despite that native insistence chooses to accept without question all sorts of western scientists word regarding the nature of a great many supposed truths about reality, some of which are legitimate but many of which are actually not) folks who are all either completely faulty in their logic or else are extremely fearful & willfully ignorant & so blind to an obvious reality, the fundamental existence of has no business being questioned by any sane individual.
So now tell me how great this guy is? He's certainly not bravely honest, is he? Unless he really is an idiot with a short circuit, which I doubt, but it's either one or the other?

I've watched Less for many years now and he never disappoints .
Hey Les Stroud, I grew up watching you on tv with my dad and I've watched every single episode of your show. You're like a second father too me. I wrote down all the survival methods and tips you talked about in a journal, because you are my hero.

Real *sort of* he too pumps out plenty of BS drama like pretending mountain lions or even bobcats are a threat to humans! Laughed my ass off for that. Only city kids would fall for that nonsense but I guess that's most of his audience.
@@Mrbfgray are you trying to say a mountain will never attack a human? Because there is evidence of the contrary
@@Mrbfgray mountain lions
@@stevem7571 Trout attack ppl too sometimes, the point is it's asinine to devote any thought to it as it has happened about a dozen times in the West in 150 yr.s. Exposure, falling off a cliff and such are what kill ppl in the wilderness not cats in North America. Mosquitoes are a billion times bigger threat.
@@stevem7571 It's what we can expect from TV shows and news. No one notices when a falling coconut kills someone which happens 6X more often than shark attack fatalities but you hear about every attack no matter how minor anywhere on Earth.
I've slept on the ground in the open in mountain lion wilderness a 1000 times and only wished I'd be fortunate enough to see any more than their tracks in the mud. I've know hundreds of others with extensive wilderness experience and not a even single scary incident ever mentioned. It's laughable to anyone with experience.

Okay I grew up in a northern Alberta oil town called Rainbow Lake. This town is in the middle of the forest, it's extremely remote and even more so back then (in the 90s). It's so isolated and small there's no police or firefighters or anything, and often there was grizzlies in town and we weren't allowed to go out for recess, and instead had to attend assemblies training us to never go near the massive cylinder live bear traps around town. That's how remote this place is. There's trails in the woods, going up more north, and there's no roads or highways or anything out there except dense forest and a few of these trails closer to town that people would hike or snowmobile on. Out in those woods though, I remember on multiple occasions walking with my dad and a few times with my school for field trips, and we'd see lights out in the trees, way off the trails into the bush. During the day, just super bright lights shining from somewhere through the trees, coming from places where there should be no one. Silence, and they'd move from place to place. As a kid I thought they were flashlights but had no real understanding - they didn't look like flashlights but that's how my mind made sense of them. Some parents and adults would say it was just "natives in the woods"(doing what?), but never any other real explanation. These lights were certainly there and weren't ever explained. Very, very ominous feelings were associated with them, like a a fear and to get away. A teacher of mine said it was because we sensed someone was out there. So again, everyone knew but the answers were vague and nonsensical. It was known and accepted, everyone in town knew about these lights but no one really talked about it seriously. But local native people ( there's a LOT of reserves and cree people up there) would always say never to go to the lights and to leave when you saw them. They associated them with spirits. It's so strange because I see it now in my mind, and I still just don't know what it was. Les talking about the orbs reminded me of it.
Nobody gonna read all that lil nibba
Okay shut up
Sorry if this is a long story, I just don't know how to tell it in a shorter way. Sometime around mid 2016, my son and I were hiking in area of Desolation Wilderness in the Sierra Nevada's that I had never been to before and we were heading back to the car. It was later in the day, and the shadows were starting to get longer. I spotted this just enormous boulder with a tree that appeared to be growing out of the boulder and I decided to go off trail to take pictures of the rock and tree and the shadows that were being cast. We were roughly 150 yards off of the trail and were taking pictures basically around the boulder in a 360 pattern. After about 20 -25 minutes or so, we decided we'd better get a move on, as the sun was setting and it was getting dark. In a bonehead move, we realized that we couldn't find the trail, we hiked towards the direction we thought we had come but the trail was nowhere to be found. I told my son that we needed to stop for a minute, breathe, not freak out and panic because we were essentially lost.
I decided that we would walk for about 10 minutes down the mountain and then we would stop, we'd both do 360 turns in opposite directions to see if we recognized anything, footprints, cairns, other people, anything. We had enough food and water for overnight if that was the case, but my cell phone was close to dead, so I turned it off in case I needed it the next day. We had no service so no need for the phone to be on. Okay, so after 3 stops and about 30 minutes of being lost and doing these 360 turns, it was very close to dark now and we were of the mindset that we were going to have to find a place to hunker down for the night and started looking for some type of wind break and wood we could use for a fire. We had been stopped for about 5 minutes just looking around trying to hear a car, a person, a river, anything we thought could be of help. The tree line was quite a ways away, and we were just about to head towards them when we heard the loudest, deepest guttural scream that made the hair on the back of our necks stand up.
We looked at each other in disbelief as to what ever it was that we had heard. Not sure it was panic, but it was a startling feeling as it was unlike anything I've ever heard or experienced before. Because of the area we were in, Desolation Wilderness, and they call it that for good reason, we couldn't pinpoint where the scream came from. After looking around for a couple of seconds or so, I saw what I thought was a cairn, and told my son that I thought I found the trail. We started to run towards it, and sure enough, there was a trail and while we weren't sure if it was the trail we were looking for, it was a trail. We started to jog as we were losing light rapidly. When we got to the parking area, it was dark and we hopped in the car and locked the doors, I still laugh about that part. As we were getting back on the road out of Desolation, my son looks over at me and says, "Dad, I think that that was a Bigfoot."
I'll never know for sure I guess, but the scream we heard doesn't match up to any animal or human that I have ever heard of and I pretty much know what all the animals in that area sound like. It was so guttural and deep(I'm guessing it lasted at least 20 seconds) that it just wasn't human or a bear or mountain lion or even an owl, it was something big. We laughed a bit and decided that whatever it was, was telling us that we were in his house and we needed to leave, and in doing so, I saw the cairn and we high tailed it out of there. I have gone back to the area on several occasions with others, but have never had that experience since, so I just don't know what it was, I just don't know.
man, I want to believe you, and i feel you are genuine but this is the type of thing that I need to experience to believe. I have heard ghost stories etc from people who imo have no reason to blatantly lie! but I need to see it with my own eyes first.
@@PonyFoot123 I get that man, and as I said, I didn't see anything, but I know what I heard and it was loud, guttural and down right menacing and definitely made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. It's something I wont ever forget that's for sure.

@Jeff Lee What a melt you are. Slip back in line. Son.
Encounters? As in plural??
@@jonturner8516 C'mon Jon. I used to own a real Yeti. This is 100% true. I used to take it into the woods and people would comment on my Yeti and admire that I had one ... until I told them how much I paid for my Yeti. My Yeti was very comfortable in the woods and didn't require a lot of upkeep - I could afford that. Alas, I took my Yeti down to Arizona's Sonoran desert and things didn't go well down there. My Yeti simply couldn't handle the desert terrain. I don't own my Yeti anymore and sometimes miss it, but it did go to a good home. I sold it to a friend ywho lives very close to the woods I used to take my Yeti. My friend really likes the Yeti too. Sorry, I have no pics and no vids of my Yeti. :-(
Yeti is a mountain bike brand.
@@ScubaSteveCanada OMG! You're hilarious Stevie! Seriously, that was some funny shit bro. The way you fooled me into thinking you had a real Yeti! You've made me change my mind. There's no such thing as Sasquatch, silly me!
Punchline: I'm actually lieing!
You're a bumboy!
If you're going to come back at me then at least ask an adult to help you rather than your 3 year old sister. 😳🤢👀
Mr. Les Stroud, I like your work. I have followed your Survivorman series. Big fan. Please, keep pursuing the Bigfoot phenomenon legion. If their is a person that can bring solid proof to the scientific world that Bigfoot exist, it is you!
Well said @eugene wunder, is there any news out yet that maybe a new Survivorman Bigfoot series is coming out ?
Please look up the Xanue Forrest people if you want to know the truth about Sasquach
Best series ever on the subject I’ve ever seen. Hope he comes back with more on the subject.
You know I never dig deep into Bigfoot stuff but this channel is the best no bullshit like any other
I have always loved watching you, and I don't think you would ever lie. Thank you for sharing your videos.
So excited to watch this, so many places to go and look still, definately enough places for another survivor man bigfoot series.
I'm in Les! I've dealt with all my critics and the non-listeners of my personal outdoor experiences... They always seem to know more, but they just need to be in control. I've had a visual encounter, multiple other encounters, and mindspeak!
Your non bias way of exploring the possibility of a new species is appreciated les! Keep up the great work and thank you for your hard work and all the knowledge you have devoted your life to give to nature lovers like myself
I can't get enough of Les Stroud, especially the season of Survivorman that focused on Bigfoot. I have that season on an SD card that is carried with me at all times. I can't tell you how many people I've shown those episodes to. If Les reads this, you need to do another batch of episodes on Bigfoot. Amazing stuff.
Couldn't agree more, I see it as the only definitive look at the subject
Actually doing those episodes with Todd Standing has hurt his credibility...Todd Standing is a known Fraudster/Hoaxer
He should of done his research before letting him spew his lies on his show
@@Whiteshell204 He quantified time and time again on the show that he wasn't there to prove or disprove anything. Just to hear what the people had to share about their experiences and knowledge bases and open discussion. Anyone who discredits Les for listening to all interest groups regarding the subject and being unbiased in his approach clearly needs to give their head a shake and remember we're chasing a giant ape in the woods of North America...too most people none of us have credibility
@@joshstewart6741 You missed my point completely..no one is dis-crediting Les for his abilities or what he has done in the past....but here's how it works.
Les who is a very reputable person lets someone like Standing on his show...at that point he was known hoaxer only to profit from fakery....people see that he's on Survivoman....and would think "this is a solid person...I mean Les has him on his show?" But it was the opposite...he used Les as leverage to get backers for his bogus movie he sells on streaming services to continue the bigfoot hoax...that is my issue. In the bigfoot research community it was a major shock that Les didn't vet him properly that's all I'm saying
@@Whiteshell204 hmmm, that's mostly what I took away from your earlier comment. Oh well, Todd standing or not. Credibility amongst bigfoot enthusiastist or not. I'll watch the heck outta whatever he puts up on the subject
If you find yourself lost anywhere, stop and think, "What would Survirorman do in this situation?"
he'd film it.
play harmonica...badly.
First: Explore your 3 zones of assessment, obviously.
les would bring his butt buddy along with him. lol
He would always have secret cameramen with tons of water and wings ready for him to eat off camera.
Like the music part harmonica and guitar. Always thought that would be a good thing when I do go in the bush.
Nine out of ten people when asked had no real idea how excited i am for this!!!!!
I remember asking, and value and appreciate your response! I’m not gonna force the dead meme. I’m forcing the opposite.
Your series and the most recent “Expedition Bigfoot” series are by far the best official shows on Sasquatch‼️💯✊
Really? You thought Expedition Bigfoot was real! That show has been completely debunked and exposed. It was all filmed on a ranch, none of this site the were surprised to "discover" are part of ranch's landmarks and that mine is an old gold mine that tourist visit all the time and not some dangerous cinnabar mine. There's more but that covers the basics.
You're kidding right, expedition bigfoot was so bad it makes finding bigfoot look highbrow
Expedition Bigfoot was ridiculous! That was the worst I have seen to date! I was very disappointed!!
@@AARONANKRUM Expedition Bigfoot - to me - is shameful. Its well produced but - as other have pointed out - fabricated junk. Moreover by participating in that program they denigrate the real work of people like Les Stroud who go out and do real fieldwork. Enjoy the show as entertainment but it isn't for real.
I support your research 100%. Thank you Les
So cool I came across this video. I used to live in Portland, Oregon and I had many an encounter 60 miles east of Portland. I went camping every weekend for 5 years out at Bagby Hot Springs. I’ve heard the whoops, tree snaps, seen the rock/boulder throwing first hand and the stacked/angled teepee tree limbs. One used to mess with me at night when I was in my tent from time to time. Had some sleepless nights sometimes. I took a spiritual approach to my camping by speaking/thinking to it when I entered its territory. I think we developed a relationship of sorts. It did not want me there, but it knew I wasn’t going to try to harm it or bring attention to it. I left it alone and for the most part it left me alone also. I was not a danger. However it let me know I was not welcome. I was trespassing. But, I was not willing to leave through its fear tactics. This may sound kind of weird, but I think it respected my decision not to be intimidated. I am not a brave person. I just wanted the same right it enjoyed…doing what it wanted to do in peace. To exist together without any problems. This is why I believe no harm came to me. Why I was not run out. I truly think it could feel my emotion and intent.
Bagby hot springs. We used to go party there. Fun place.
Les’s shows are just absolutely first rate , the best in the Bigfoot world. He’s an artist of many things
There is so much that we either haven't been told, or have yet to learn. Really enjoyable video!
Facts
I sure enjoyed seeing the Enchanted Forest sign at the beginning. My folks used to take us there.
Best part of the entire episode, even if he was trying to make a silly implication.
It's fun to watch Les evolve with each episode. From skeptic to full on knower. Many don't know that in the Smokey Mountain episode with Scott Carpenter he experienced mind speak. He approached this topic the way it needed to be approached. Nothing but respect for what he's done for the subject.
Glad I’m not the only one going back and watching these. This topic has been a favorite of mine for a couple years now. I really appreciate les’ approach. I try to be the same way. I’ve heard too many stories from people that can’t all be lying or mistaken
@@remb9614why can they not all be lying?
I agree. Spouses cheat on each other all the time but a stranger won't lie to you?
@@albertfcb6654 The reason why this series is compelling is that for those who have followed Les's career, we know he is a no-BS, pragmatic guy. To appreciate this show, it's necessary to have first seen many Survivorman episodes to understand the context of who Les Stroud is. When you know who he is, you know that he is very likely not making any of it up.
@@Greg-lw4zb ive Seen all Episoden 2-3 Times. Wasnt talking about les but all Bigfoot Guys. Les never Said He Seen a Bigfoot for real, only Strange noises and stuff
this is the coolest show ever
The way les plays his music, he is #1 soul bruddah
#1 soul bruddah? Is that from the movie "They call me Bruce"?
So neat watching him drive up the I5 and pass Enchanted Forest out by Salem Oregon. Total fan of Bigfoot and this is now my favorite episode.
Thank you ✌🏼 ❤️
Oregon is a very interesting place and it draws you in.
Thanks for giving our little Enchanted Forrest a blip.
Be well and take care.
I’m going to pick up there where les stroud left off if you know anyone who wants to go on this expedition with me let me know
@@ericstevens8744 If I were younger or had better knees, I'd be all about this Eric. Good luck ✌🏼❤️🖖🏼
@@ericstevens8744 I'm in
Less, You ARE the #1 Doc-reporter in the world. Love all the opinions, point, counter point. YOU ARE OUR FAVORITE!!!!!
More episodes please! I need more Survivirman Bigfoot in my life!! This is so fascinating
Is it just me or is it weird seeing Les in a vehicle, with sunglasses on, clean!?!? Lol.
SUVman Bigfoot.
I thought the same thing!
He is also not covered in flies or mosquitoes.
I remember the first time I realize les wasn’t a fake
We just got too many people who get fake wooden floors that think They are outdoorsmanS
I thought it was Jeff Bezos at first.
TH-cam getting a little too comfortable with these ads.
You haven't heard of AdBlock Plus yet? Me n wife both had it downloaded for at least 7 years now and RARELY EVER see ads anymore even on youtube videos!
and HUGE BONUS of AdBlock Plus is LEGITIMATELY a 100% free download, free updates, and no adware bs like those other lying adblocking software/apps slip in on us .... just make sure you get the download from the OFFICIAL AdBlock Plus website, and NEVER trust those 3rd-party-shareware type sites
Yes, these ads are ruining my experience of TH-cam. Ads on tv, ads along our freeways, ads in our tv episodes. Kinda like the phone scammers ringing our phone from a non working number. TH-cam time for the ads to go away. Or maybe we need to say goodbye to TH-cam.
@@Notellemkrik1776
I agree with you COMPLETELY! Aside from ads being put in our face everywhere, what you mentioned about the phone calls is called spoofing. They will program their phone to give a no-longer-in-service or a totally fake phone number that shows up on your caller id, they RARELY ever leave a message on your answering machine, and yep when you try calling the number back, that number will either always ring busy but most most often the numbers will say "the number you have dialed is no longer in service."
Not sure if you know, but email providers like yahoo and a lot of others do this too whereby providing users the ability to create a fake email address that shows up to you instead of their real email address.
Goodbye to youtube? YOU BET! Me n wife been growing more n more SICK of being ghost banned! If you dont know already, this is where you think your comment posted but it only shows you posted it while youre viewing it from the user account which your signed in and made the comment with. Countless people been finding out the reason they never got a reply is because NO ONE even saw their comment.
We dont use vulgar language, dont threaten people, dont go around insulting/harassing people, and dont etc etc but just one of things that causes you to get ghost banned is if enough people simply dont like what you say and they report you, this will cause googles/youtube to put you on the list to ghost ban you from certain videos.
Sorry for the book but we want others to know whats going on and then spread the word even though ghost banning has been around for quite a few years, not many know it because of youtubes CLEVER way of tricking you into thinking your comment actually posted when it didn't
Amen

Oh, I'm definitely behind on the times a bit... I knew games consoles could access the internet to link up with others to play the video games, but didn't know they could actually surf the web or even access sites like yt to watch videos like how a pc and smart phone can.
...but yeah definitely sucks that adblockers aren't providing their stuff for the game consoles.
WOW ! Thank You ! Saw one myself in Oklahoma Kiamichi Mountains in SW part of the state...
After witnessing two seperate insane UFO encounters in my lifetime, I don't doubt you for a second Les. We don't know a damn thing about this pale blue dot and our place in the universe.
Came to say the same thing.
I’ve seen some weird stuff a couple times too. 3 times specifically.
After me and my wife were abducted from our home while awake by 7ft creatures wearing black hooded robes I think anything is possible.
@@wallyprichard7451 So what did they do to you? How long did they have you? Can you share any more details?
@@loriwolff4115 ~
Me and my wife were abducted from our home in TX while awake about 8 yrs ago. They were 7 ft. tall reptillian beings wearing black hooded robes with 3 huge scaley claws for hands. They worked on me then showed me around their ship. There were little white looking beings but couldnt see their faces because of some blurry blotches over their faces. Me and my wife appeared on the ship seperately so she spent her time looking for me. I was extremely excited the whole time. My wife got mad when I asked them if I could stay. I would definitely do it again.
Pretty stoked for this to say the least!
Yessir! Didn't know it was even coming out
I miss survivorman!!!
Me too...watched them all so many times...
Alot to indure as a career though 20 years beating yourself up
Ed Stafford is a great survivalist to watch he done quite a few programmes
He messed up his name by getting into this hole bigfoot thing, vary stupid
I believe every single word you say; without a doubt ,hands down ,no questions! Thanks Les
Personally, I have not made up my mind on the whole, as you put it, 'bigfoot phenomena' but I do find it and your stories fascinating. Keep on making these Les and I will keep watching!
Have you heard of dogmen yet.there is actually more dogmen encounters than bigfoot
@@darrenmcdonald5373 Is there any best case on this? guide me
@@darrenmcdonald5373 Perhaps because there is so much creepypasta stuff being written and posted on YT and everywhere else, that the “believers” are taking in as actual encounters?
Ah man, Les, please do more of these videos! I've thoroughly enjoyed experiencing your adventure so far! Thank you for what you do!
Wohoo! This is like a second Christmas, thanks, Les!
Awesome Job Les 😊
Got dropped off in the middle of the Amazon jungle and had to spend a night alone out there. The next day as he walked to the nearest Indian village he was followed by a jaguar. That guy has amazing guts. I grew up in South America and believe me the jungle is the spookiest place on Earth at night. It's way scarier than any Forest
It’a a difference of perspective. In the jungle you know there’s shit out there flying and crawling around all night. You can hear the millions of insects drone on and on incessantly. In the forests of North America it’s different, it’s quiet and ominous. Anything that breaks that quiet is definitely unnerving and worth mentioning. Again, depends on what bothers you more.
In north america at worst youll get a black bear running from you like a little bitch (cuz they are all as scared of people as birds are) but for 99% of those sounds in 90% of north america, (excluding alaska) they are harmless animals/insects... as opposed to amazon, where 90% of the sounds you hear are shit that can kill you. Sorry, if you camp out in the amazon with North American national park camping equipment/experiencre chances are you're gonna die. In NA 100s of thousands of people camp every year and you may get a couple deaths cause by wildlife out of all of them.
@@joshuapatrick682 You're absolutely right about that. The absence of noise in a seemingly endless dark void being broken can be terrifying even if the cause is harmless. Its the contrast in your senses that amplify the experience. I've never been to a jungle but I can imagine its horrifying in its own way. I assume its more of a constant fear as the noises never cease rather than long periods of quiet perforated by unsettling breaks by sticks or creepy calls n such.
The wilderness as a whole is just beautiful and spooky. I love it all.
@Paul yes AK is another world all together. I know
‘Jungle’ translates directly into ‘forest’, however I agree- the woods can be very unsettling in dark hours.
Les is quirky but he's possibly the most honest and genuine of the genre
we need more les
I agree, comes off very genuine
Love him!
Indeed les is 100% genuine and honest he’s one great chap
well said.
Agree
Les is the man! Thank you for these TH-cam episodes ❤️ 🙏
Less stroud is awesome! I’ve gone back & especially like his “director cuts”. Thanks for including him.
We need more of this from you and Steve Isdahl!! People need to know the truth.
Screw people! Most aren't ready for the truth! People are so F'd in the head they will be out there trying to hunt them. I say leave the forest beings alone.
I’ve always believed that humans have a sixth sense. Like when people say, “it feels like I’m being watched,” or like how Les mentioned the hair on the back of your neck stands up. It’s like humans can sense things they don’t even consciously notice.
Absolutely and most completely fill their minds with useless information or other distractions, there no counting for how much actual sensitivity ability most of use humans have lost over time!!! Yes we’ve advanced for the better but so many try to laugh at or such down anything that’s uncomfortable or doesn’t conform!! Virtue, values, laws....etc we absolutely must have, however remember how until January 1st 1995 many thought the tell of rogue or killer waves 🌊 just appearing in the oceans and seas was nonsensical and then scientific equipment measured the huge one in the North Sea 🌊 that crashed into the oil rig and now satellites are watching them happen all the time!! They’re only explainable through quantum physics and that’s why we must be open minded with critical thought about Sasquatch and other things but never just dismiss everything as we can’t just accept anything without critical and open minded thinking!!!!
Yes a disturbance in the force. Everything is energy
@@JesusMedrano12 er. That's not what the "It feels like I'm being watched" sensation is. It's your standard, empirical senses and instinct picking up details you don't consciously notice, like if previously there was a bunch of background noise in a forest that slowly goes quiet, you don't realize it has happened but your brain has, and it's aware that generally animals only stop making noises if they're trying to hide, meaning it's likely there's some manner of predator nearby. Nothing as "mystical" as the Force or any other sort of supernatural explanation.
As I mentioned in my reply to Medrano, that's exactly what's happening. Your senses *have* noticed, but it's not something you're actively aware of. We're taking in massive amounts of information all the time and the brain is deciding its priority, and everything that isn't relevant to your immediate circumstances is filtered to the subconscious mind rather than the conscious mind. It's the only way we can function because otherwise we'd be forced to give *every* stimulus the same level of concentration. If memory serves that's more or less what's happening to people with the most debilitating cases of autism(I think it's autism, it may be another developmental disorder), their brains are processing every stimulus as if it requires immediate attention.
It's the vibes man
Les, I have so much admiration for you. It's so much easier to laugh at the subject than research it. Bravo.
deadwin macabre -- Perfectly said! I agree.
His frame of mind and the way Les describes his thoughts are both fair and well said.
I have waited for this episode for months! I'm so glad you premised it with "if your waiting to throw a bucket of water on this subject, just turn it off now"...Thank you Les, for being respectful to the FACT. They exist.
Have you seen one
About time, finally something worth watching!
Mr.Stroud I enjoy your journeys about bigfoot. I live in south Mississippi. I quit counting after the 13th sighting. Saw one 2 weeks ago. They live in these woods around me.
Marvelous
I love that part with Todd where he’s surrounded “if that’s real” it’s scary as shit, I can’t help but laugh when at the very beginning of the clip he’s yelling “HA Heewaw kinda karate style then says “you want some”!!! Freaking great!
it’s feels good to have things to look forward to.
Thank you for investigating this subject. Les Stroud you are honest and credible.... appreciate your skills on this subject! I think it's something we don't know about, for sure, yet! 👍

Hell yeah Survivorman is back at it again. Love these, thanks for keeping us entertained during such a shitty year.
You really can't fully grapple with this stuff until you've gone out in a heavily wooded area in the middle of no where for a couple nights and had an experience for yourself. My buddy and i definitely are now believers
@Sub if you are against Antifa and BLM Orangutans apparently have been reported approaching trail cams from the back. And who knows they could bury their dead. But those are both the best counter arguments to its existence.
@@hellknightmordred7655 Orangutans and Chimps are soooo stupid, they don't even know how to build a shelter to keep out of the rain and will literally, sit out in the open getting soaking wet. Tell me, can't you think of one other reason why an Orangutan would approach a trail cam from behind? There are several, the least of which is trying to hide from the lens.
@@ScubaSteveCanada i got this information from A great ape researcher so they might not be as stupid as you think. Also there is cunning and then their is smart. Don't confuse the two. Chimps also can register threats and their surroundings way faster then any human. Look up chimp memory test. If bigfoot does exist we can also assume its much more intelligent then your average great ape.
@Sub if you are against Antifa and BLM Ever find a bear skeleton or mountain lion skeleton? I haven't and have roamed the Rocky Mountains of Wyoming for years. Have found many elk, deer, antelope and cattle remains but never a bear or lion.
@@elkhunter76 solid point. I’ve only ever found deer skeletons. Have never found fox, coyote, bear, or bird skeletons. And I’ve been on and off trail hiking (pretty consistently in the woods several times a month since I was a small child). I’m not in the position to say there is or isn’t an animal like Bigfoot lurking. I’ve just never had an experience. But there are some compelling points being made here.
One thing that always interested me is experiencing mysterious lights in the forest
Look up Hoia Baciu forest in Transylvania, Romania!
Unpopular opinion i think it's fey folk, fairy's but not like tinkerbell just a preternatuaral creature
There will be always be things we can't even science can't explain , I myself have experienced this light/fire ball phenomena , and I am from Asia , I like watching these shows remembered watching on TV but I was then little kid , forgive me my English isn't good . So my experience goes like , it was almost 12 in night I was talking on phone with my fiancee and all of sudden like 50 meter away I saw something glowing in dark but I thought it was like a firefly , but that little light grow in size of a tennis ball and started to give flames and started to hover a feet and two up and down four and five times in very slow motion , after 5 mins it just vanished right before my eyes .
Oh thats is the holobolues that's what us bigfoot like to call them
I've had a weird experience with lights in the woods once. Was driving up Mount Sicker on Vancouver Island B.C, was getting close to dark and looked along the top of the trees and saw what appeared to be a line of lights like 3 cars driving in a straight line high in the tree tops then all of a sudden vanish. Had 3 other people in the vehicle witness it as well. Will never forget it.
For any out there who may not believe in the subject, I would like to share a personal unexplainable occurrence. When i was younger around 11 or 12 i believe, i was out exploring in the woods out in rural Oklahoma behind where our family lived off in the middle of nowhere. After walking through the woods for quite some time I found a big old oak tree that looked absolutely perfect for climbing around 30 to 40ft tall or so. I started to climb and had made it maybe 10 to 15 feet up and I heard a twig snap, i got extremely nervous because in that part of the woods we have a lot of bobcats and i feared the worst, in a rush i frantically climbed faster adrenaline fueling my every movement and i made it damn near to the top when one of the branches snapped, time slowed as i realized i was falling, i reached out trying to grab anything in front of me to no avail. And i remember seeing the ground getting closer and in an instant i saw a flash of something burly and brown but do to fear of dying or whatever I fainted before i hit the ground. I woke up disoriented and confused as to how i was still alive i had just fallen 30 or more feet face down and yet i was alive, then as I'm sitting there on the ground looking at my bloody fingers from trying to grab the branches i realized i wasn't in pain. Like my body didn't feel like it hit the ground with a heavy impact i just felt the pain in my fingers and a few spots from hitting branches on the way down. As i collected my thoughts i started to remember that i had seen something big and brown move beneath me and a realization hit me. Whatever it was whether guardian angel or Bigfoot, something caught me before i hit the ground that day, otherwise how did i sustain almost no injuries from something that should have been potentially fatal. I was unconscious before i hit the ground from how scared i was and maybe he was sensing my fear and came to help. To this day i am convinced Bigfoot is real. And for anyone who doesn't believe, well me being alive is enough proof for me. And as an adult i think that maybe the twig snapping wasnt a bobcat at all, it could very well have been the Bigfoot investigating what was going on from the noise I was making!
You know what, I'm convinced now. This story from a random stranger that doesn't even actually mention seeing bigfoot must be undeniable proof.
For real man, your story is that you saw something brown when you fell out of a tree as a child. That's it. Any connection to bigfoot is just children doing what children do with scary events.
@@fsociety6983 u don't gotta be facetious about it, he didn't claim his story was undeniable proof. i found it intruiging at the least
@@fsociety6983you apparently missed the intro where he said you can go somewhere else
And at the ripe old age of 12 I decided then and there to give up Heroin and Moonshine!
Just wanted to stop by & say thank you for all that you have done! Taught me alot growing up. From being able to strive outdoors and fundamental life skills.
-Wish you the best!
Excellent video, I’m a believer. Experienced one myself as a young girl in the mountains of California. Up in the mountains past Paradise California, I was 15. I was scared but very curious.
Les is the original survivor show host! I love his content and I hope he does more. Combined Survival with urban legends!
Thanks! I spent the day watching the series and directors conversations to this point. Well done and thought provoking. I love the approach taken, and the scenery captured on film was breathtaking.
Seriously can't wait for the directors commentary for this episode.

Well the fact that this was the last one on the topic he has found his answer and it makes since that he doesn’t want to reveal it further. When you see the beauty in nature the way he portrays that he does why would he go any further and risk hurting it. @Les Stroud thank you for years of hard work and teachings
Les, I am so GLAD to see you are BACK!!! And I look forward to seeing more shows from you, especially the shows on Sasquatch. I am a huge fan and watched all of your Survivorman series. I am especially interested (as I fully trust everything you say about your experiences asI know you just don’t fall for someone’s suggestions!!!) in your Bigfoot series!!! THANKYOU for everything you do, and for all the hard work you do bringing these series to us!!!! You are truly AMAZING and BRAVE man!!!!!
I have a cousin whos half hoopa indian he lives in the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation in Trinity Klamath California he says the Elders of the tribe tell stories of Sasquatch in their area the elders speak of them as being another tribe and they interact in fact some of the elders know how to speak their language
See Morehead tapes
🥱😂😂😂. Same old crap. No proof. If they can just speak the language, then certainly they can video the creatures. Wouldn’t you think? But they can’t because it’s all made up

Les Stroud is an incredibly cool and intelligent guy. i LOVED his show Surviorman..and he also had a show where he cooks impressive gourmet food with only stuff found naturally in the environment he’s in,,,he’s so knowledgeable and realistic in all the things he does, love this guy!
Keep them coming,,can't get enough of this mystery,,if the world isn't a mystery to you ,,open your mind,,maybe go outside ,,
I have a friend who is an acupuncturist and holistic healer. He is one of the most sincere people I have ever met and a very private person. He told me that he was visiting his brother in New York and took his brother's little dog to a state park for the afternoon. He was tired from the drive and dozed off beside a large fallen tree a short distance from the hiking trail. He was awakened by the shivering of the dog. He realized it wasn't cold and the dog was trembling in fear (this dog was usually a barker but didn't make a sound, it just kept shaking), so he looked around to see what was terrifying the dog and saw a very large figure walking just down the hill from the path in the moonlight. As he watched it moving, the thing swiveled its head in a very unnatural way and looked in their direction with glowing red eyes. He was in disbelief, thinking he was dreaming. It continued on its way and eventually turned its head forward. He said it had a conical shaped head, was about 9 ft tall and covered in dark heavy fur. I don't think he even told his brother the story. He told me because I once asked him if he thought Bigfoot was real. Even though he told me the story, he never said Yes or No. That was his way of answering the question.
Oh sorry about that I was searching for my missing dog and I thought that was mine
big foot there you are making trouble again, I told you I would bring you bananas so you don’t have to go out
@@tactlcal_bacon_bits4773 oh thank you but I'm allergic to bananas
big foot oh good lord, let me guess you need a snack that’s gluten/dairy free and keto friendly? All this fame has gone to your head
@@tactlcal_bacon_bits4773 yea you know how it is
Les. Have been a fan since the early 2000s and watched just about every Survivorman episode. I was aware of your encounters both in Ontario and on the Coast of Alaska with what certainly were both Sasquatches. However when you came out with your Bigfoot series a few years ago my respect for you went to a high level for having the balls to take on this subject, full well knowing a majority of your fans and casual watchers would think you to be nuts. Society and the stay in the lab academia has always stayed away from this subject, just casting it aside without doing any investigating of what is really going on, and knowing the thousands of years Native American interactions they have had with the Sasquatch, let alone the pioneer stories from the previous 3 centuries. People have become conditioned also by the perfect haired news casters that would do a 2 minute segment on this subject from time to time, only to snicker and make jokes about the people they interviewed. This is a great quest you are on and you are doing it in a very appropriate method. I myself have had a sighting, circa 1975 on opening day of deer season in Roscommon County, Michigan. I have had numerous encounters that were even more amazing than my long distance sighting, both in Michigan where I grew up and here in SW Ohio where I now live. I have friends that have seen them close up and it scared them to no end and one even stopped hunting on that day in Michigan 20 years ago. So I am a knower and nothing can change that. I am amazed that your sons did not wake you up while the hitting of the cabin took place. And this is a common trait of these hominids, which I imagine is usually a game to them. It has happened to me also. I look forward to more information on this Oregon area. It takes a long time for the Sasquatch to get accustomed to strangers in their territory. And it may take numerous trips before you actually see one, or at least a silhouette behind a tree or bushes at night. I would continue with that guitar and harmonica and they will know it is you and you mean no harm to them, and they will come around. But it is always on their terms. Best of Luck and continued success.

I had one encounter and this is exactly what happened. I was staying at a remote cabin (only used to stay for a few days at a time, but covid happened and I stayed out there for a month and a half), and a month into it I had an encounter. Crazy stuff man.
So the bigfoot/Sasquatch have the mindset of an autistic 4 year old..
@@MrKharper123 I think researcher Christopher Noel from Vermont who has been studying the Sasquatch for a long time has penned articles or even a book relating a lot of their behavior to autistic like traits. Who knows. I do know they are masters of the forest and keenly adapted in both body build, locomotion, and athletic ability, great night vision, and enough smarts to dominate their environment. They have a huge distrust of the small people. However their weak spot may be a tremendous curiosity us.
@@cbrippee yes. I agree. I said that from my studies here in Alabama. They are exactly like an autistic 4-6 year old.
and the earth is flat
I've been watching your show for 16+ years.
Survivorman helped me get through alot of nights while I was going through a very dark time in my life as a teenager and young adult.
I'm so glad that you will lead us to a different avenue from your endeavors in the vast woodlands. I believe you, I believe in BF, and I believe this will be an epic journey with you! Thanks Les!
I've never seen a Sasquatch here in Oregon, however I know elderly loggers who said they've heard large unusual beasts while sleeping on work sites, and they have came to work sites and had their equipment dragged around and log piles spread back across the entire hill they removed them from.
Some people might say eco terrorists but they had tractors literally dragged through the dirt 20 feet or more.
and logs that were removed with heavy equipment were just unloaded and replaced manually some how
That's def Squatch activity yup
Yep,I've heard them stories quite a few times..And I think this happens more often than not,but goes unreported..The Foremen and Bosses at the Logging camps really don't want to hear about anything that may bring in the local Authorities,and if proven credible,would mean their logging Op being closed down..
Much easier to listen to those who say they've had some kind of experience &then tell them to"anyway,u had better get back to work"!
And full 50 gallon drums thrown off down the mountain. And log truck drivers seeing and occasionally hitting one. I live in OR and have had numerous experiences with them over the years of hunting.

@Sandy V. There was a time where I would have seriously doubted you, but 2 years ago on a country road in Warren oregon on a daily trip to a barn to take care of a horse I saw a big black rectangle floating above a house to my right. I stopped on the road and it swooped down silently and flew over my car slowly and disappeared. my pregnant roommate at the time saw it as well.
I still have no clue wtf I saw
I am an Anthropologist that never misses your show. I have had 3 sightings in my life and I just love your show.
How did you have an encounter
Listen hard to these native folks they are tuned into nature
@@bigby1590 How.
Simply amazing video, looking forward to the next ones! Hugs Les Stroud directly from Brazil!
