Just wanted to let you know that I've been in quite a low place for a year or so now and SC has been my trusty companion whenever I couldn't sleep or was alone. Thank you so much.
David you should add Bigfoot Crossroads to your Bigfoot eyewitness story list. Also just mentioning cause the 3 people below say Les. Sasquatch Chronicles is hosted but Wes Germer. They sound similar, Wes & Les.
First Time on this channel , a combat vet , moved to the mountains to get away to self heal after retirement, and the humbleness ,kindness intelligence that he shared in his story showed the level of discipline that really only certain individuals I believe hold as to not pull the trigger says so much in this story as well as what truly kind of man and human this John truly is … before I moved to the mountains to find some peace and to get right , had a situation where I Drew my weapon on an individual and although I clearly had the lawful avenues to defend myself and property, I had the exact same feelings and thoughts in my mind to hold off and not pull the trigger and the situation quickly descalated and they went on there way peacefully as well and Im grateful for that to this day . Not sure why but I’ve been watching and listening to all these encounters from around the world and although never seeing one before and now finding myself addicted to this subject I find it so hard to believe that so many people like John who are intelligent, Humble , professionals , from police officers , school teachers , construction workers , professors everyday people could be so sincere and detailed with zero reason to hoax or lie have such amazing encounters and science has not taken them seriously… What a great guest and podcast thankful I found this ..
Your guest is such a good man, intelligent, soulful & kind. He remained poised & that poise/stealth resulted in no loss of life. Like other viewers have said, this was by far the best, most articulate encounter story I have ever heard. Having just listened to the podcast with George Knapp yesterday about the recent Sasquatch DNA findings, this story is even more moving & gripping. Many thanks to both of you. Your channel is top-flight and I appreciate your content!
I've listened to this episode about 4 times and each time I hear it, it is so visceral and powerful, not just for the spooky encounter but for the measure of the experiencer. I hope he is doing well and enjoying life. Thank you for sharing.
How do I give you a 100 thumbs up?. By far the best description of a encounter I’ve ever heard . Thank you John for your service and coming out to inform others to the possibilities of a encounter .

LES is JOHN feeding us this Entertaining fictional story. It's a production like War of the Worlds- 1939. He knows Oregon well & it's folk lore.... Les shows us just how gullible people are ! Very clever story telling. &.. sucks in Conspiracy Theory believers.The lesson is: Don't be conned ... it's all a Big joke 😂
Idea Clements ? An the British book worm his encounter is true. You 2 werent there these sasquatch are 100% real an can be very frightening seeing them .
I listened to this 4 times and it’s very educational and This is the best interview I have ever heard. It kept me on the edge of my seat the hole time and made me feel like I was in the story
Now that is some story. I can see every detail as he explains his excellent story. I am convinced he is 100% truthful. No bull plop, just sticks to the story and that is the story he experienced. Best I have listen to in a long time. I call him a Very reliable witness . Props John, and Les . Thanks Big Time. Wow ....
As a combat vet, he will see things differently (and more accurately) in a stressful situation. Just by the way he relayed his experience is proof. All the details. Great job ! Thanks for sharing and thanks for your service.

"..but if it comes to where I think there's going to be conflict, I'm going to make sure there's good conflict!" "Ya know, I'm going to make them remember today.".... This made me laugh with pride and makes me smile. I love his warrior spirit!
I loved this encounter and the brave guy. I'm glad he kept his calm and thought about it. Thank God that he made it out and here to tell his story. Love hearing the encounters. I can picture everything he said.
There are many Sasquatch channels. I started with yours years ago. Being a counselor your interviews convinced me of his existence. The trauma in people's voices say more than the sum of their words ever could. I listen as a mental health professional, the emotional stress, the engramic deep seated fear and uncontrollable PTSD speak far louder than the story. Are there some l don't believe? Of course, there are always those who are desperate to be included and heard. I'm happy to say l find 99% to be valid and relating traumatic experiences.
Idk he’s suspicious for sure. You can’t say that 100% over an audio clip. You’d have to see his facial expression’s and ticks he’s doing when Making substantial claims as these. Such as when he goes from the last knock on the door to him running to the hole. If I could see his face and see him look at me and tell me this story without looking around and rubbing there nose and doing things liars do. Called soothers or comforters cuz they know they’re lying. And know I know they’re lying so they look away or run there knee something. But when someone’s telling the truth they look you in the eye and mean what they say. Some ppl are good liars tho.
yes prison taught me very well how to detect a bullshitter bullshitting and this man tbh comes across as very truthful. His voice, his lack of dragging out the details like people who lie usually do makes me almost convinced this man had this experience. Absolutely incredible.
There's one thing about John's story. I believe him. I have driven hundreds of miles, in that Forest. camped out hundreds of places. I'll just say this, a lot of strange stuff going on in those woods. a lot. Don't go looking for them, Because they're looking at you.
im in the middle of this and its absolutely captivating,horrifying, and interesting at the same time. Im in a glass case of swarming emotions right now! Great great interview and story! Very very believable. My gosh. Oh man.
Awesome to listen to - thank you 👍 The vet was incredibly brave in this situation, despite living with PTSD. I also liked his theory on what the Sasquatch are (at the end) and agree with him. All in all a fantastic interview.
This is a very scary, but very interesting as well. I believe this man's account. I can not imagine. His description of what these creatures may be has helped me to understand better. I am glad he handled the situation so well. But I pray that he will never see them again.

Such an excellent retelling of your experience! With such CREDIBLE witnessed like this, how can anyone deny the truth of these creatures. Its almost insulting when skeptics won't accept these truths.
Imagine being a grown man crying in front of your friends telling them that you just seen a giant 10' Sasquatch, and they don't believe you? You describe to them just like this man does to Wes, and they laugh behind your back! That's how some people are, and it's very sad!!!
This is fast becoming my favourite Cryptid/Sasquatch platform, you get to hear from the people who went through the experience, rather than some publicity seeking charlatan picking and choosing what facts to tell us. Thank you and keep up the good work👍
I have so much respect for you. I really appreciate how you handled yourself in this situation when so many others including myself would have done differently. Please continue to keep yourself and your family safe. Thank you for your service 🙏
While this entire encounter story is captivating, I was most intrigued by the description of the "scream-roar". The closest thing to that that I can imagine is the concussive roar of an adult lion, which can be heard for a distance of 5 miles. At close range, the concussion can absolutely impact your head.
These creatures can leave u scared , but as a child we lived with a clan and the big guy can terrify u to your core. They are intelligent. With there hearing my great papa said they can hear a human step miles away, and their sense of smell is greater then a dog. Their power and stamina is more powerful then we can understand. My papa said they can run at a steady pace for 50 miles. Which is used for hunting. And each clan is different fortunately we had a clan that respected our boundaries. Because if they wanted to kill u they could at anytime. These creatures go on scare tactics because u are in their boundaries and want u to leave. And they are incredibly flexible they can crawl like a snake and so low to the ground it's frightening. And jump over 20 feet in one bound. Ok these creatures get very angry when u move into their place there home. Because these people bulid these log houses and homes in the back of the forest. Your taking away which was there for as long as their families. And they are master hiders they blend in with there environment
So heed my warning pic up and leave. Because they will torment u relentlessly to make u leave. Ok I was tramitized as a child. But with the stories and time passing by and learning the dos and don't of these creatures. I have learned to live my life again and not really forget but to let go. And to this gentleman he made the right decisions. And it's true there ways to bring them down not kill them but to slow them down. And that is in the knee, elbow, eye and elbow area's because they don't have the body mass or coverage. And if there's one there is alway a family around. And about them moving and we can't hear them. Is because of the padding on there feet and they know how to take a step so softly. So to all my great grampa lived with these creatures all his live. So be careful out there. If they want to hurt u or kill u they would.
I have had that happen to me in the El Dorado forest in California. He is correct in that you can feel it as much as hear it. They most definitely do not like loud Led Zeppelin at midnight!!
My husband and little girl and I years ago never camped with out a high powered rifle. We always kept our daughter in between us when walking and we always had a dog with us. We have had a cinnamon bear charge us and a black bear follows us on a trail. We also had 2 mountain lions one stalking and the other we think was wounded. The wounded one screamed like a woman being stabbed. She screamed all night long. My child ,dog and my self all slept in our car. Later my husband joined us. I will never go into the woods with out a gun. I have heard tree knocking and replied back. It was far away and yes we had a rifle with us.
Thank You John for your story, and I believe you. I also live in Oregon and I know they are out there as well because i saw one during my days working for the Bureau of land management. I also believe these creatures should be left alone.
I've listened to so many stories, but this is by far one I've listened to over and over. Awesome compant experience kicked in. This man stood in the face of fear too many times. And still faced the opposition, God bless you. Sorry you had to go through that ordeal and others, to deliver us this story of this ordeal.
Thank you forever for not opening fire on them. They seem peaceful and non threatening. I watched a video in which an old lady lost her husband. A Sasquatch that was nearby in the woods placed flowers on her porch, gathered wood from the pile and left it on the porch. Please don’t let fear make you want to use a gun on them. They are a part of this planet just as we are. They have every right to be here. Man has destroyed so many life forms already. The earth is big enough for all of us.
I believe they are like we are, some are good. And some are bad. Anyone can have a bad day too. But you are correct in basically saying we should all just get a long.
I believe there are good and bad ones, but they are certainly not friendly, the one I encountered was watching me while I slept standing right next to me leaving it's hair on the tree, and it was screaming at me like a crazy lady. I couldn't see it I didn't really believe in sasquatch so I thought it was a crazy lady. It seemed to be angry at me very much but it also seemed to recognize that I was annoyed and not hostile. Because it could have killed me in my sleep. It seemed like it was angry about the land being polluted because this happened in a half urban half rural environment, I stay at a native burial ground.
Thank you for your service. I never served but one of the proudest moments of my life is being there for a friend freshly back from Iraq in 06 (my senior year of HS was 02 so I had a lot of friends and family serve) who was dealing with a lot of mental anguish, ptsd and survivors guilt. He was in his truck with a loaded handgun in his mouth and I helped him work through his immediate issues without ending it. I am only proud of it because this man gave a piece of himself away and was the only one in his humvee who survived an IED and had to live with the aftermath of that horror. I am only proud of it because he served, and sacrificed and I did not but I was able to help him in his most desperate hour. I do not take the service of the brave men and women who don the uniform lightly.
One of the best shows I’ve heard. I’ve listened to every show on season 1 and can’t wait to get through season 2. We live in Valdez, Ak and are going to start researching where they have been spotted here
I spent some time in Valdez. What an incredible, mind blowing place you live in my friend. Care to share any information on what you've heard in the area?
Wow that's a scary story man if the Soldier was never in combat I bet he wouldn't have survived that situation but it definitely helped him. What a story man it pisses me off when people don't believe a story like this. Those Sasquatch threw infrasound at him to stun him so to speak,thank God he felt that feeling before, because they thought it would cripple him to be easily attacked. I really believe they are like people not Animals and very intelligent.
I love this channel! lately Ive been falling asleep most nights to these stories..lol idk why I enjoy them so much, they are quite captivating, adventurous, scary and those darn Sasquatch are so mysterious!
THANKYOU JOHN for your service and you story. I hope you will share with the facts by how to hunt. If you want to learn more about Sabay people. Steve is a honest man and you will be treated fare. I was treated with respect.
Dear Wes & John, This is one of the best videos I have ever heard. Thank you for sharing this video with us Wes and may I also say that your channel has amazing encounters and you should be proud of your channel! John, There are not enough words to say thank you for your service to our country and how incredible you were during your encounter. You proved to me that it takes more than bravery to endure such an encounter as the one you experienced. I am just so proud of you and I pray that people will take heed of what you were trying to get across to everyone. You are so right, these things, what ever they are, stand alone in what they must be. I have dealt five years with these things at my home and I certainly don’t know what they are….. Blessings to You Wes and John and May You Both Live a Long and Happy Life! Marley from Missouri
" You may as well see unicorn in front of you " - that was good example about our readiness to see and accept something that shouldn't exist. Also, only panic cowards would start using a gun ...... Your description of the event is the best i have ever heard, and your attitude and actions taken are admirable ...... Thank you....
Awesome episode! I appreciate the time that gets put into producing these interviews and the warnings that your guest issued the audience. Keep up the great work!
I love John's story. My wife recently started listening to the stories here. She was hanging on every word. I myself have been a fan a long time now. Sorry for your tragic past John but thank you for a well illustration of what you encountered.
LES is JOHN feeding us this Entertaining fictional story. It's a production like War of the Worlds- 1939. Les shows us just how gullible people are ! Enjoy
Best Encounter I've ever heard, from a trained professional Soldier of 20 years. Thank you John for Protecting us, and the way you dealt with these beasts. Sounds like you're training saved your life! I'm a bit in shock right now just hearing this. Thank you for sharing with Wes. and warning to all who knock on trees, listen to this Man. No picnic in the woods. P.j Carpinteria Ca.
This is an extremely detailed and brilliant account of some harrowing events. Thanks to John for his service & sharing his experiences. Really enjoyed this podcast.
Very interesting what he said about the fear factor (which he knew was being thrown at him) not having that much of an effect on him as we've heard from other people's encounters, because he had dealt with it before in combat and knew how to deal with it. 45:37 ish.
This is thee best encounter I've heard. This guy was so brave and his attention to remembering details was excellent. I have no doubt that his story is real. But he should have let people do their investigations, especially if they were scientists. If they would have gotten hurt that would have been their own fault.
He got his money back for the property, so why not let people go see what they can find! Then again if someone got hurt, or killed I would never forgive myself!
Storys like these are why I have started my journey deeper into the woods. During the day or night. Living in Sasquatch territory. We have lots of area to seek around us
I've seen Mount Hood area & it's creepy from afar, I got the strong feeling that beasts do lurk out there free & they're territorial. These beasts are not friendly fuzzy creatures to play with, they are highly intuitive & have a keen sense of observation & read your every move with paravertebral communication On top of staying hidden unless they want you to see them. I experienced them following an Elk herd in Oregon off the highway. I only saw one but I knew that it was not alone. Stay intuitive ppl & stay safe.
I very much agree with this former combat soldier about the Sasquatch "being a thing unto themselves". That will always be the answer for me no matter what the description of the Sasquatch. I recently heard a Sasquatch podcast wherein the speaker ("experiencer") described one as "just like Chewbacca from Star Wars". Again, you have the concept of something incomparable, being UNIQUELY what it is as a member of its own race. I truly feel that if we keep that in mind, we should as well attach to this the concept that as we as humans are of different emotional and mental states, and different levels of education and experience (relevant to our environments in which we are attempting to survive) so too are these unique beings. That is, there are ones we consider good and there are those considered very, very "bad". In other words, these two very different members of this same "race" of entity have different codes and different considerations about how they are to survive. Nothing is done by anyone, of any race, that is outside of the idea that what they did or are doing is done or was done in order to SURVIVE. It can be screwy as hell from OUR POV, but that does not alter the fact that they found it necessary to operate that way in order to best whatever hostile creature, human, animal or situation was facing them.
Hi Wes. Marc here again. Great episode. ( No I never listen in order) Pretty sure this is the second time I listened to this one. This Vet is bad ass. And he did handle this like a champ. I would of shat my pants!! hahaha
John hang in there man. Thank you for your service sir. Best bet for getting rid of the PTSD is to talk about it. Sharing it, getting it out in the light of day seems to help. Seems like you ran into a whole passel of those Squatch's. I think your lucky, and I think your skills served you well. God Bless you John, walk in the light.
That guy is my hero. To take a stand when needed to without hesitation, saying now or never. I love that guy. To keep his cool after looking at the being that was huger than huge. I would have lost it all. Hopefully he is doing well. Thanks for sharing
wow....what a story...he was very articulate...these creatures did seem intelligent and able to assess the situatiin. I agree Wes that your guest handled this situation very well.
😲 Man awesome details John dealing with all that he delt with leading up too this encounter then having the training kick in to probably save his life. You can tell by him saying he didn't notice the feet and hands was awesome because he was on the critical hits mind set. What a terrifying account John thanks for your service find peace brother 👍🇺🇲
Just wanted to let you know that I've been in quite a low place for a year or so now and SC has been my trusty companion whenever I couldn't sleep or was alone. Thank you so much.
Les strouds videos helped me through an evacuation from a recent fire, I felt more prepared because of all of his survival videos.
Hope all is well, Les and Sasquatch Chronicles are both incredible

Imagine being a grown man crying in front of your friends telling them that you just seen a giant 10' Sasquatch, and they don't believe you? You describe to them just like this man does to Wes, and they laugh behind your back! That's how some people are, and it's very sad!!!
This is fast becoming my favourite Cryptid/Sasquatch platform, you get to hear from the people who went through the experience, rather than some publicity seeking charlatan picking and choosing what facts to tell us. Thank you and keep up the good work👍
I totally agree with you Sebastian. I get who you are talking about.
Best episode yet! Thanks John! I hope that you are doing well.
Thank you Wes for having John on your podcast ? a very true encounters trueley believeable .
This was an amazing interview well done
God Bless this guy. What a amazing story he has. Thanks you for posting the interview!!
I have so much respect for you. I really appreciate how you handled yourself in this situation when so many others including myself would have done differently. Please continue to keep yourself and your family safe. Thank you for your service 🙏
While this entire encounter story is captivating, I was most intrigued by the description of the "scream-roar". The closest thing to that that I can imagine is the concussive roar of an adult lion, which can be heard for a distance of 5 miles. At close range, the concussion can absolutely impact your head.
These creatures can leave u scared , but as a child we lived with a clan and the big guy can terrify u to your core. They are intelligent. With there hearing my great papa said they can hear a human step miles away, and their sense of smell is greater then a dog. Their power and stamina is more powerful then we can understand. My papa said they can run at a steady pace for 50 miles. Which is used for hunting. And each clan is different fortunately we had a clan that respected our boundaries. Because if they wanted to kill u they could at anytime. These creatures go on scare tactics because u are in their boundaries and want u to leave. And they are incredibly flexible they can crawl like a snake and so low to the ground it's frightening. And jump over 20 feet in one bound. Ok these creatures get very angry when u move into their place there home. Because these people bulid these log houses and homes in the back of the forest. Your taking away which was there for as long as their families. And they are master hiders they blend in with there environment
So heed my warning pic up and leave. Because they will torment u relentlessly to make u leave. Ok I was tramitized as a child. But with the stories and time passing by and learning the dos and don't of these creatures. I have learned to live my life again and not really forget but to let go. And to this gentleman he made the right decisions. And it's true there ways to bring them down not kill them but to slow them down. And that is in the knee, elbow, eye and elbow area's because they don't have the body mass or coverage. And if there's one there is alway a family around. And about them moving and we can't hear them. Is because of the padding on there feet and they know how to take a step so softly. So to all my great grampa lived with these creatures all his live. So be careful out there. If they want to hurt u or kill u they would.
I have had that happen to me in the El Dorado forest in California. He is correct in that you can feel it as much as hear it. They most definitely do not like loud Led Zeppelin at midnight!!
My husband and little girl and I years ago never camped with out a high powered rifle. We always kept our daughter in between us when walking and we always had a dog with us. We have had a cinnamon bear charge us and a black bear follows us on a trail. We also had 2 mountain lions one stalking and the other we think was wounded. The wounded one screamed like a woman being stabbed. She screamed all night long. My child ,dog and my self all slept in our car. Later my husband joined us. I will never go into the woods with out a gun. I have heard tree knocking and replied back. It was far away and yes we had a rifle with us.
Thank You John for your story, and I believe you. I also live in Oregon and I know they are out there as well because i saw one during my days working for the Bureau of land management. I also believe these creatures should be left alone.
The best story of all time!
The little one in is a girl who fell in the whole. Screaming for mom and dad.
I've listened to so many stories, but this is by far one I've listened to over and over. Awesome compant experience kicked in. This man stood in the face of fear too many times. And still faced the opposition, God bless you. Sorry you had to go through that ordeal and others, to deliver us this story of this ordeal.
Wild story! I've never had an encounter but I 100% believe men like these and so many others.
Thank you forever for not opening fire on them. They seem peaceful and non threatening. I watched a video in which an old lady lost her husband. A Sasquatch that was nearby in the woods placed flowers on her porch, gathered wood from the pile and left it on the porch.
Please don’t let fear make you want to use a gun on them. They are a part of this planet just as we are. They have every right to be here. Man has destroyed so many life forms already. The earth is big enough for all of us.
I believe they are like we are, some are good. And some are bad. Anyone can have a bad day too. But you are correct in basically saying we should all just get a long.
I believe there are good and bad ones, but they are certainly not friendly, the one I encountered was watching me while I slept standing right next to me leaving it's hair on the tree, and it was screaming at me like a crazy lady. I couldn't see it I didn't really believe in sasquatch so I thought it was a crazy lady. It seemed to be angry at me very much but it also seemed to recognize that I was annoyed and not hostile. Because it could have killed me in my sleep. It seemed like it was angry about the land being polluted because this happened in a half urban half rural environment, I stay at a native burial ground.
That is the most beautiful thing I've heard. I agree live and let live and return goodness.
Except for the continual loud metal clonking sound.
Thank you for your service. I never served but one of the proudest moments of my life is being there for a friend freshly back from Iraq in 06 (my senior year of HS was 02 so I had a lot of friends and family serve) who was dealing with a lot of mental anguish, ptsd and survivors guilt. He was in his truck with a loaded handgun in his mouth and I helped him work through his immediate issues without ending it. I am only proud of it because this man gave a piece of himself away and was the only one in his humvee who survived an IED and had to live with the aftermath of that horror. I am only proud of it because he served, and sacrificed and I did not but I was able to help him in his most desperate hour. I do not take the service of the brave men and women who don the uniform lightly.
One of the best shows I’ve heard. I’ve listened to every show on season 1 and can’t wait to get through season 2.
We live in Valdez, Ak and are going to start researching where they have been spotted here
I spent some time in Valdez. What an incredible, mind blowing place you live in my friend. Care to share any information on what you've heard in the area?
Wow that's a scary story man if the Soldier was never in combat I bet he wouldn't have survived that situation but it definitely helped him. What a story man it pisses me off when people don't believe a story like this. Those Sasquatch threw infrasound at him to stun him so to speak,thank God he felt that feeling before, because they thought it would cripple him to be easily attacked. I really believe they are like people not Animals and very intelligent.
I love this channel! lately Ive been falling asleep most nights to these stories..lol idk why I enjoy them so much, they are quite captivating, adventurous, scary and those darn Sasquatch are so mysterious!
THANKYOU JOHN for your service and you story. I hope you will share with the facts by how to hunt. If you want to learn more about Sabay people. Steve is a honest man and you will be treated fare. I was treated with respect.
Incredible story. Very gripping from start to finish and very detailed
John's account was so articulate and detailed. And the way he held it together under those terrifying conditions was admirable.
Dear Wes & John,
This is one of the best videos I have ever heard. Thank you for sharing this video with us Wes and may I also say that your channel has amazing encounters and you should be proud of your channel!
John,
There are not enough words to say thank you for your service to our country and how incredible you were during your encounter.
You proved to me that it takes more than bravery to endure such an encounter as the one you experienced. I am just so proud of you and I pray that people will take heed of what you were trying to get across to everyone. You are so right, these things, what ever they are, stand alone in what they must be. I have dealt five years with these things at my home and I certainly don’t know what they are…..
Blessings to You Wes and John and May You Both Live a Long and Happy Life!

Absolutely 1 of the best pod casts its so interesting and very true ,thanks Wes much respect
Thank you for your service, I really appreciate what you have done for this country
i’m tryna fall asleep but this story is intense.
Wow! What an experience! He handled that so well! John, thank you for your service.🙏
AMAZING interview
" You may as well see unicorn in front of you " - that was good example about our readiness to see and accept something that shouldn't exist.
Also, only panic cowards would start using a gun ......
Your description of the event is the best i have ever heard, and your attitude and actions taken are admirable ......
Thank you....
Thank you for your service Sir. Never Forgotten. Continue to Stay Blessed 🇺🇸🇺🇸🕊️🙏
Awesome episode! I appreciate the time that gets put into producing these interviews and the warnings that your guest issued the audience. Keep up the great work!
Awesome Wes, thx buddy.. also thx to those who share there stories....
Truly amazing
Woo! It was good thank you John for your stories I’m glad you are safe now you can move on with life
I love John's story. My wife recently started listening to the stories here. She was hanging on every word. I myself have been a fan a long time now. Sorry for your tragic past John but thank you for a well illustration of what you encountered.
She swears she will never go camping. Which suits me just fine.
I'm loving it
Thank you John for your story listening from Victoria Australia
LES is JOHN feeding us this Entertaining fictional story. It's a production like War of the Worlds- 1939. Les shows us just how gullible people are ! Enjoy
I'm not taking anything away from the other stories but this is by far the best I have ever heard....I pray for the best health
Amazing story! These things are upsetting because people are trying to take away their land they live on. Season 2 EP 5 is almost the same thing!
Best Encounter I've ever heard, from a trained professional Soldier of 20 years. Thank you John for Protecting us, and the way you dealt with these beasts.
Sounds like you're training saved your life! I'm a bit in shock right now just hearing this. Thank you for sharing with Wes. and warning to all who knock on trees, listen to this Man. No picnic in the woods.

No doubt in my mind, this guy is the real deal!
Amazing! This guy is the kind of man I want protecting our freedom. Riveting story!
This is an extremely detailed and brilliant account of some harrowing events. Thanks to John for his service & sharing his experiences. Really enjoyed this podcast.
Very interesting what he said about the fear factor (which he knew was being thrown at him) not having that much of an effect on him as we've heard from other people's encounters, because he had dealt with it before in combat and knew how to deal with it. 45:37 ish.
This is thee best encounter I've heard.
This guy was so brave and his attention to remembering details was excellent.
I have no doubt that his story is real.
But he should have let people do their investigations, especially if they were scientists. If they would have gotten hurt that would have been their own fault.
He got his money back for the property, so why not let people go see what they can find! Then again if someone got hurt, or killed I would never forgive myself!
Storys like these are why I have started my journey deeper into the woods. During the day or night. Living in Sasquatch territory. We have lots of area to seek around us
The guy said they're dangerous... be careful out there.
I've seen Mount Hood area & it's creepy from afar, I got the strong feeling that beasts do lurk out there free & they're territorial. These beasts are not friendly fuzzy creatures to play with, they are highly intuitive & have a keen sense of observation & read your every move with paravertebral communication On top of staying hidden unless they want you to see them. I experienced them following an Elk herd in Oregon off the highway. I only saw one but I knew that it was not alone. Stay intuitive ppl & stay safe.
This man gave such a great and relatable description of the beasts! I felt like I truly knew exactly what they looked like!
WOW! Impressive! I have so much respect for this x military man. Thank you so much for your believable accounting of this event.
I very much agree with this former combat soldier about the Sasquatch "being a thing unto themselves". That will always be the answer for me no matter what the description of the Sasquatch. I recently heard a Sasquatch podcast wherein the speaker ("experiencer") described one as "just like Chewbacca from Star Wars". Again, you have the concept of something incomparable, being UNIQUELY what it is as a member of its own race. I truly feel that if we keep that in mind, we should as well attach to this the concept that as we as humans are of different emotional and mental states, and different levels of education and experience (relevant to our environments in which we are attempting to survive) so too are these unique beings. That is, there are ones we consider good and there are those considered very, very "bad". In other words, these two very different members of this same "race" of entity have different codes and different considerations about how they are to survive. Nothing is done by anyone, of any race, that is outside of the idea that what they did or are doing is done or was done in order to SURVIVE. It can be screwy as hell from OUR POV, but that does not alter the fact that they found it necessary to operate that way in order to best whatever hostile creature, human, animal or situation was facing them.
Hi Wes. Marc here again. Great episode. ( No I never listen in order) Pretty sure this is the second time I listened to this one. This Vet is bad ass. And he did handle this like a champ. I would of shat my pants!! hahaha
And a very good guest, had plenty of detail, brilliant👍
John hang in there man. Thank you for your service sir.
Best bet for getting rid of the PTSD is to talk about it. Sharing it, getting it out in the light of day seems to help.
Seems like you ran into a whole passel of those Squatch's. I think your lucky, and I think your skills served you well.
God Bless you John, walk in the light.
As of yet, this is the best one. Prayers to the guy and hope he found peace.
Iam glad you came back I had 4 relative in the military they all came home I hope you get better
Those bigfoots were all more scared than you. They probably saw you and thought "shoot! It's the small foot with a gun! We're dead!"
😂😂😂 thumbs up🤗
That guy is my hero. To take a stand when needed to without hesitation, saying now or never. I love that guy. To keep his cool after looking at the being that was huger than huge. I would have lost it all. Hopefully he is doing well. Thanks for sharing
Thank u. Be well. Healthy wealthy and wise sir.
wow....what a story...he was very articulate...these creatures did seem intelligent and able to assess the situatiin. I agree Wes that your guest handled this situation very well.
What a phenomenal retelling of an experience!! Geesh!! I cannot even imagine what this would be like to live through. Insane!!
I love this episode... This one and season 1 ep23 iz my favorites so far...
Sir thankyou for your service , i am totally glued to your pod cast .
One of the best stories I've heard so far top notch work
😲 Man awesome details John dealing with all that he delt with leading up too this encounter then having the training kick in to probably save his life. You can tell by him saying he didn't notice the feet and hands was awesome because he was on the critical hits mind set. What a terrifying account John thanks for your service find peace brother 👍🇺🇲
Ah yes. Why he choose the target that was least likely to rip him apart (the one in the hole). Sounds like bullshit to me.
Welcome home buddy.
I enjoyed your encounter, very much.
Wishing you days of peace 🕊️
Brilliant. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻👍 great detail and observations 👏👏
