Daniel Boone's Giant Hairy Man Encounter: A Frontiersman's Tale

In a fascinating video from the YouTube channel Unknown Bipedal Primate, an intriguing historical account of Daniel Boone's alleged encounter with a Bigfoot is explored. The story is based on manuscripts from American historian Lyman Draper, who made it his life's work to preserve the history of Revolutionary-era heroes. Daniel Boone, the famous frontiersman, is said to have shot and killed a giant, hairy man who was brutally attacking his son in the woods. The story was shared by Boone at a social gathering, where he was asked to recount his experiences. Upon being heckled by a man in the crowd, Boone refused to share the story. However, he later shared the account with a young man who accompanied him on his way to a friend's residence. According to the story, Boone and his son were pursuing two Indian horse thieves when they stumbled upon signs of 500 other Indians. Realizing further pursuit was futile, they turned back and landed below the mouth of the Licking River. The following morning, Boone and his son set out in different directions to hunt for food. Boone heard his son's gunfire and immediately heard rifle fire from the last report. Fearing for his son's safety, Boone hastened to the crest of the hill and saw a giant man with his son. The giant had caught Boone's son by the buckskin coat and jerked the gun from him, raising him over his head and slamming him on the ground. Boone, fearing for his son's life, shot and killed the giant. He then ran to his son's aid and found him senseless and not able to breathe. After making efforts to restore his breathing, Boone was able to revive his son. This historical account is a fascinating glimpse into the past and the possibility of Bigfoot's existence. While we cannot confirm the validity of the story, it is an intriguing piece of folklore that has been passed down through the years.
