Childhood Encounters: Sasquatch Friendship and a Hidden World Revealed

The video starts with the speaker inviting viewers to share their cryptid encounters. The story is from Christopher R, who grew up in Camano, British Columbia. In 1960, when Christopher was around eight years old, he and his friends played in an open field that used to have a factory. They started going into the woods to avoid older kids who would torment them. One day, while playing kickball, a ball went into the woods and a "weird looking kid" named Harry threw it back to them. Harry was black and covered in thick, downy hair. He was shy, scared of smiling, and didn't speak English. The kids tried to get Harry to play with them, but he always hid behind trees. Harry was incredibly fast and always had a ball ready when one went into the woods. One day, Harry brought them six trout, which they cooked and shared with him. Harry showed them where he caught the fish, and they realized he could hold his breath underwater for an extended period. One day, a kid named Ricky joined their group, and he didn't know Harry. Ricky tried to question Harry, who didn't respond, and Ricky started beating him up. Harry ran away, and from that day on, he hid from the group. The following spring, they heard a "yelts" (hello in the native language of the Heisler) from a loud and booming voice. A large man, covered in reddish hair, appeared with Harry behind him. They recognized the word and replied with "yachts" (goodbye in the native language of the Heisler). The big man gently pulled Harry from behind him and said, "it's good boy" in English. They welcomed Harry back, and the big man walked away. Harry left for good that fall, and 15 to 20 years later, Christopher received a call from Joey Checkers, who told him that Harry and his dad were Sasquatch.
