A fascinating account of a Class A Bigfoot encounter in Arkansas has been shared on the YouTube channel Mysteries Unknown. The witness, Robert, has had several Class B and one Class A encounter with the elusive creature, and he's dedicated the last 10 years of his life to researching and documenting these experiences. Robert's interest in Bigfoot began when he was in high school and watched the documentary "The Legend of Boggy Creek." This sparked his curiosity, and he eventually had the opportunity to interview Smokey Crabtree, a well-known Bigfoot researcher from Fouke, Arkansas. After this encounter, Robert became an "armchair squatcher," watching movies and reading books about the creature. However, it wasn't until Robert had a personal experience with rock clacking while camping with his son that he was inspired to get back into field research. He joined the Arkansas Primate Evidence Society and spent 11 years researching and investigating before having his own Class A sighting in Eastern Oklahoma. In the video, Robert shares a particularly chilling encounter that occurred while he was attending the Oklahoma Bigfoot Symposium. After the event, he and another researcher decided to stay an extra two days to do some nighttime investigating. They were camping in their cars when Robert was awakened by the sound of his car rocking from side to side and the distinct sound of the passenger door handle being lifted. Robert believes that the Bigfoot was trying to get into his car, likely drawn by the smell of food. He was grateful to have locked his doors, as the encounter could have been much more frightening otherwise. The next day, Robert found that the rearview mirror had been pushed in, and a banana that he had put out as bait had been partially eaten and chewed up. This is just one of the many intriguing stories shared in the video. If you're a Bigfoot enthusiast, it's definitely worth a watch.
