impossiblevisits: "To viewers seeking visual drama, this video is not for you."
The audio presented here was recorded in November at a habituation site in East Texas by YouTube user impossiblevisits. There are a couple of interesting things to listen for. According to impossiblevisits, the audio presents Sasquatch in its "natural habitat when operating near a residence."
"This is a patient, percussive species, and the sounds contained in these audio clips exhibit typical behavior when an outsider (in this case, me) is present."
When asked how they knew it was a Sasquatch making those noises, this was their answer:
The answer is: Because I have filmed a Sasquatch at this place (see "Woodpile Sasquatch"), the woman who lives here has seen them on many occasions, and there are only three creatures who could plausibly produce loud, solid wood knocks such as you hear in the first part of this video: human beings, apes, and Sasquatch. Yes, it is possible that human beings or apes were out knocking on trees in the middle of the night, but not likely.

To viewers seeking visual drama, this video is not for you. It simply presents Sasquatch in its natural habitat when operating near a residence. This is a patient, percussive species, and the sounds contained in these audio clips exhibit typical behavior when an outsider (in this case, me) is present. They sometimes make loud, intimidating knocks (as you'll hear in the first part) and then, when it becomes clear that the outsider is not leaving, they switch to a longer-term study of the interloper--making much subtler noises (often all night long, but separated by long silences) in order to provoke him into reacting, to get a rise out of him, to determine what he's made of and whether he constitutes a theat. Note the variety of surfaces used and sounds produced, as if the striker is trying to find one that finally provokes a reaction. I slept in my car in the backyard the first night, and the second night, in my car behind the chicken coop.
I'd have a million questions about this one. Like, how long has this person lived there? Have they made any changes in their yard to disrupt or anger something? Did it just suddenly start hanging out there? Any chickens stolen? How active is the road near them? Has anyone gone out there to see the perimeter where something might have been standing while throwing rocks? Anyone look for the rocks around the chicken coup? Anywhere out there in the woods where there's a pile of rocks? Look for any footprints when it rained? Anyone try to throw something back? Okay, that's just the beginning....
ReplyDeleteSounds like a shy kid with a slingshot, but given the activity (and despite my disbelief in bigfoot), it still would have frightened me a bit.
ReplyDeleteWhy this is interesting to me:
If what we're hearing is a real experience, something was interested enough to harass someone in a car for a very long time with very long pauses in between. That's how a wild animal will operate. I've been on a lot of whale watching trips. Sometimes humpbacks get curious about the boats. They will sound for several minutes and then pop up (usually two at a time) in another location, like, "Surprise!" They may sit at the surface and watch, then sound again for another several minutes, pop up again, "Surprise!"
Autumnforest has good questions and suggestions. Ditto.
Anyone try leaving something "yummy" where these sounds originate...I mean, besides the chickens. ;)
An aside: I don't know why, but this is more interesting to me than a thousand Vaporsquatches(TM).
ReplyDelete"a percussive species"?
ReplyDeleteIs he kidding with this? What's that even supposed to mean? They also allegedly make vocalizations and some even claim that they have a language. Does that make them a lingual species?
Rule #1, if you're not an expert in the field, don't attempt to feign such knowledge.

@atheidiot - is the TM behind your constant use of Vaporsquatch a joke or or are you trying to convince people not to use it? What you want to put behind it is this ® as in Vaporsquatch®, That means registered and given that i have now gone to uspto.gov and registered that name it now belongs to me. It will be official in a weekish. You can use it if you want but I need to send you a use license, without one I charge $1000 US. TM is for a logo, moron.
ReplyDeleteNo need to trademark it anyway, it's stupid and not catching on. You're the only one who thinks it's cute or whatever, its just wack.
