In the world of the unknown and the mysterious, there are few creatures that spark the imagination quite like Bigfoot or Sasquatch. The YouTube channel Tattooed Biker Unexplained brings us two personal encounters with this legendary creature that are sure to leave you questioning what lies deep within the vast wilderness. The first story takes us to Oklahoma, a state that is no stranger to Bigfoot sightings and is currently in the news for its Bigfoot hunting season legislation. The story begins in 1975, with a Bigfoot sighting in Noxy, Oklahoma, just 15 to 20 miles away from the county seat of Nowata. The witness's father and cousin, both with a keen interest in photography and journalism, decided to try and capture some photographic evidence of the creature. They spent several weeks in September crawling throughout the Northwestern region of the county surrounding the farmstead where the sighting took place, but never saw anything other than the landowner who was visibly shaken up by the incident. Fast forward to 1989, and we find ourselves at a Boy Scout campout in the same region. The witness, heavily involved in Boy Scouts and growing up around a large density of Native Americans, shares his personal encounter with Bigfoot. While bunking with a friend in an A-frame style tent, the witness was awoken by a sound outside. He noticed someone messing with the lantern at the entrance to the trail, but as his befuddled state faded, he realized that this thing was batting the lantern with its hand. The figure was at least 10 feet off the ground, requiring either standing on something or using a stick to hang it up there. The witness woke his friend to see if he was also seeing what he was seeing, and they sat there for a few minutes whispering, trying to sort out what was happening. I'm guessing their frantic whispering was not as quiet as they thought because whatever it was bolted and started running towards their tent. The figure veered to the West before it hit the fire ring and headed to the fence line, hurtling it in a single fluid motion before disappearing into the neighboring pasture. The witness describes the figure as a humanoid, but he can't pick out any specific details about it other than its scale. He thought it was Sasquatch at the time, given its scale, and he's certain it wasn't something like a whitetail deer or a bear. He remembers thinking it was very tall and relatively lanky for its height, with a silhouette that looked like the outline of Chewbacca. The witness and his friend were extremely scared and didn't talk about much for the rest of the night. It was years before he was really willing to talk about it himself. In his research, he found that in order to comfortably reach a 10-foot high lantern, the human in question would need to be somewhere in the neighborhood of eight feet tall. He also found that the average barbed wire fence stands around four feet tall, and an eight-foot tall Sasquatch should have the clearance to cross a four-foot tall fence. The second story takes us to the Pacific Northwest, where a woman shares her personal encounter with Bigfoot while camping with her family. She describes the creature as being over seven feet tall, with long, dark hair covering its body. The witness's description of the creature's eyes is particularly chilling, with a yellowish-green glow that seemed to pierce through the darkness. Both of these stories serve as a reminder of the mystery and wonder that still exists in our world. Whether you believe in Bigfoot or not, these personal encounters are a testament to the power of the unknown and the human imagination.
