A remarkable firsthand encounter with a family of Bigfoots in Springbrook, Australia, is the focus of a video from the YouTube channel Bigfoot Encounters Narrated. The video, which has been making the rounds on social media, features a retired officer sharing her unforgettable experience from 1984.
The witness, Shannon Morgan, was hiking with her best friend Wayne, his parents, and her friend Anna in Spring Brook National Park when they had their encounter. After a few hours of hiking, they stopped on a hillside overlooking a dam and felt like they were being watched. As they continued their hike, they came across a creature unlike anything they had ever seen.
The creature was about 170 cm tall, with long arms and legs, and its posture was more human than ape. Its fur was sleek black, and its face was distinctly human or apelike, with black and fur-free skin and glistening eyes. The witnesses also noticed a strange wet dog smell about the creatures.
As they were observing the smaller creature, they heard a gurgling sound, followed by something crashing through the bush towards the creature. A huge arm covered in the same black fur reached out from the dense brush and grabbed the smaller creature, pulling it away into the thick undergrowth.
The witnesses were startled and ran back to the lookout. They later discussed what they had seen and agreed that the smaller creature was about 170 cm tall, whirly and gangly, with long arms and legs, and that it was remarkably upright. They also noticed a strange wet dog smell about the creatures and speculated that the larger one might have been female based on a slight suggestion of breasts as it bent down.
After returning to Melbourne, Anna did some research at the State Library and found an old newspaper article from Brisbane dating back 30 years detailing a similar encounter near the Little Narang River. Hikers had reported seeing a large black furred creature stealing their catch of fish and leaving behind large footprints. This incident combined with their own sighting made them realize that they weren't the only ones to have encountered something unusual in those mountains.
The witnesses are convinced that what they saw that day was a family of these creatures, whatever they may be. They believe they were watching them as they picnicked by the dam and suspect they might have even been following them as they hiked back.
I encourage readers to watch the video and share their thoughts. The story is a fascinating addition to the many firsthand accounts of Bigfoot sightings and experiences. Whether you're a seasoned Bigfoot researcher or a newcomer to the subject, this video is definitely worth a watch.
