  • Michael saw Bigfoot in 2021. He shares his fascinating story and thoughts on how it has affected him. In June of 2021, Michael drove home from a music gig late at night near the St. Lawrence River in Northern New York. For more information and additional content, please visit my website: eks.tv/
    Initially, he thought he saw a deer, but he soon realized it was a bipedal creature over eight feet tall and covered in shaggy fur. The encounter left him in shock, and he later recounted his experience on social media, realizing there had been other Bigfoot sightings nearby.
    Michael describes the sighting and its profound impact on his life, changing his perception of the world and the creatures that inhabit it. His story, along with other sightings in the area, provides compelling insights into the mysterious world of Bigfoot.

We did the films A Flash of Beauty: Bigfoot Revealed and A Flash of Beauty: Paranormal Bigfoot. They are real and it's important to keep talking about them.

    This gentleman put it best when he said it humbled him. It is a special event in one's life that can make such a substantial change in how you view your surroundings , humbled and lucky is a good way to look at it. Some of the eyewitnesses have such a hard time with the size and strength that they can no longer feel comfortable in the wilderness and I get it. So he was lucky in more ways than one.

    What the heck does that mean? Like a saw blade on its side running in circles as it was moving forward? That can’t be it or it wouldn’t have appeared to be moving so fast. Was it jumping every few steps creating the circle as it moved forward? Help?

  • @jknephew
    @jknephew 2 місяці тому

    I wish you clarified better the circular motion he spoke of. Do you mean the creature was running in circles while slowly moving forward in its direction? Did it stop running in circles when it hit the road and then just ran straight to the woods? How could it appear so fast if it was running in circles? Or do you mean it was flaring its arms in circles as it ran fast and straight? Do you know?

    And he saw the "Thing" for 4-5 seconds running in the field.
    Unfortunately at 11:30 at night, you probably wont be able to see something running in a field, a cat, dog, bear, deer, etc...

    @vapete1237 10 місяців тому +3

    Whilst nothing can be categorically ruled out, the presence of a bigfoot seems a bit far-fetched, if the existence of a big foot is possible it would be Interesting to learn about its feeding habits, if there had been any reports of partially attacked and eaten animal carcasses being found and more importantly, if there was any evidence of DNA left on the carcass and its origins. Of course, there's always the possibility of bigfoot being purely a herbivore.
    It is an extremely well put together thought-provoking post that needs investigating further.

      There are reports/sightings that basicly go "I was out hunting deer, shot one, then a bigfoot came out if the woods scooped up the dead deer and ran off with it"
      As well as other sightings claiming they saw bigfoot carrying deer over their shoulders, and even a few native stories/legends that describe how the giant wild men hunt and kill deer with their bare hands.
      So if bigfoot is real, that implies they like venison.
