Great work as usual Hammerson! Thank you for all the thought provoking entertainment
Started to scroll by and then saw who posted. Immediately halted and watched. Always a good story if Mr. Peters is telling it!
Thanku for ur hard work Hammerson. Hello from Blountville, TN!!!!
A great story and i really appreciate Canadian tales!❤
Thank you, Mr. Peters, as always, for your stellar work! I adore your historical videos and your videos on Native American beliefs very much, as well as your marvelous cryptid projects. It's always an adventure diving into another one of yoAllur videos, and I can't thank you enough.
In reference to the story portrayed in this video, I feel like remarking that, now and always, we live our lives surrounded by the spirit world. We are never alone, and we are never absolved of the consequences of our actions, barring special dispensations of divine intervention. This is the reality that I live and know, although I realize that to another person my words may seem fanciful or even pretentious. I merely share this truth with others, because I believe that it explains a great deal of the human condition, and it makes life much easier to face and to understand, if you comprehend the truth about the other world, the afterlife, and the divine oneness.
Truth is the only refuge we have.
I feel very sorry for the men who lost their lives needlessly in the story that you've relayed. I feel for the tormented sub-chief as well. It is easy for any of us to wander into fatal error when we fail to understand that we are all one, and that to hurt another is to harm oneself. The white men were exploiting the natives, and the natives understood this. Their violence was a disproportionate reaction, and it brought about great suffering for several of the people concerned. All of human history could be summed up in the deeds and the lessons of that one sad story.
Apologies for rambling! Thanks again! All the best, N.
Thank you for your hard work.
I have Never hit onto a video this Fast before!!
Like Button duly Hit Too.❤️👍👍

Mysteries of the Pacific Fur trade sounds amazing Hammerson!
Thank you sir
Ponderous. What caused the subchief's condition?. You have woven an enigma Hammerson and a colorful basket it is. Good job. Thank you sir! 😊
This man is always good for a spooky tale-not once has he bounced a story check, spooky or otherwise.
really interesting story that i had not heard of before
Awesome video, my friend. Thank you very much. 😊
Guilt does amazingly bad things to a man's conscience.
Wow wack story, Hammerson! Love it
Great one, Hammerson.
Any new Wendigo stories coming soon?
I have plenty of material, but no immediate plans.

Hammerson…you rock!Cheers from Quadra island,B.C.
Amazingly researched
Allways, First Class.
The Niagra on the Lakes video was great
I didn’t know that “Taboo” was based on a real place….. wow!
Comment from Tennessee for the algorithm. Except for the weather we have a lot in common with the Great North.
Wonderful, as always! I have to chime in about the Niagara video - if anyone hasn't seen it, it's excellent!!
Remarkable! And if not for you Hammerson, this would have been forgotten.
Thankyou!
😯...Gawdamn dude.
Nice,but it would have been nice to know what happened with the blacksmith that he was able to escape.
Thank you Hammerson.
Let me begin by saying that I do not have all the answers. but I can assert that such things as ghosts can, and do, exist. That's not to say that every person who claims to have witnessed a ghost is either telling the truth or correct in their claim. When only one person claims to be seeing a ghost that no one else can witness, we should be skeptical as to the veracity of the claim. It could be a lie, an hallucination, brain damage or some mental illness. However, when said ghost manipulates, or otherwise moves physical objects around them, and that two or more people witness, all the while at least one person is in contact with the spirit of the deceased, then we can be certain that something paranormal is happening.
Furthermore, you can experience a ghost without seeing one, but by hearing or feeling them. I have had such strange fortune on three occasions. In two of these occasions the ghosts were spirits of recently deceased family members who had come to bid me farewell. On the last occasion it was the parents of a close friend who had been dead for several years. On two of these the dead moved objects around, or manipulated them, in this world. Spooky indeed.
Be careful what you wish for.
Amazing story. 👏
Absolutely loved this episode. Thank you
LOL Hall n Wood
I didn't catch that 😄
I love your videos around Vancouver Island and would love to see more. Haida Gwaii is of great interest to me also. You have such unique content. Well done!
We are constantly told of the evil European interloper subjugating the natives. Of course, this happened, but it went both ways it seems.
I've been wanting to read this book!
Splendid video
What a story, wow!
What became of the ship?
It was burned.
@HammersonPeters good question
The British, the Americans and the Spaniards arrived to Nootka Island. The naturalist of the spanish expedition, Mariano Mociño, described the *Matlox,* which was a large wild creature living in the woods. 🦍👣. Which was imposible to classify.
Good one Hamm
Love the history ❤ my freind
I have this image flooting in my head, and I can't remember if it actually comes from a description in your Wendigo video, or if I dreamt it up myself when i fell asleep to said video.
Something about a merchant (fur trader?) witnessing an execution of a native man condemded afflicted by the Wendigo curse, who had killed and cannibalized a family member.
(Content warning: next bit is graphic )
He was stoned to death by his tribe, on a rocky sea shore, the tribe throwing rocks for a day and a night, until the was only a pool of blood in the shallow water, among the black rocks. I picture that beach, black stones jutting out of the water, the natives standing in ankle deep, blood red waters, exhausted, sweat steaming from their bodies, in a bitter cold autum sunset.
Did i get that from your channel??
Either way, thank you for a great channel, what a treasure of history, delivered with superb production and narration.
Cheers from Denmark!❤
That's a horrifying image. I've never told a story like that, although I have described historical native Wendigo executions. Although there is a sort of equivalent on the West Coast (which I hope to make the subject of a future video), the Wendigo belief is really a creature of the interior, namely the northern forests, the northern prairie, and the Canadian Shield.
Horrific indeed, but at least now I know that it was just a dreamscape, thanks for replying! Stay awesome, My good Sir!
Can you imagine how much the Nootka were laughing inside when "entertaining" the crew? Theyd have clapped politely "splendid show" and those dudes would've taken a bow thinking "bloody idiots eh?"😅
Preemptive like

Interesting, that account of the native with apparent mental health issues. I suppose it could've been paranormal, but I suspect he took an earlier head injury that went on to manifest as PTSD-induced psychosis. But, who knows?
After all, even experts at the fore of neuroscience today know very little about the true function/capacity of the human brain.
Interesting video, as ever. I do prefer this narrator, I must say. Thanks for sharing your endeavours.
First
The Nuu-chah-nulth people tell a very different story.
Can we stop calling us first nations or indigenous people Indians and half breeds. Thanks
Disappointing
I absolutely love your videos. Your narration is so good. I've learned so much about Canadian folklore that I never would have otherwise. I especially loved your video of the Nahanni Valley.
I can really imagine going back in time and witnessing the events with Hammerson's narration
