Have you ever come across a video that left you in awe and wanting to know more? That's exactly how I felt when I stumbled upon this fascinating clip from TCC Research. The video features a newspaper article from 1871, describing a "Wild Man" sighting in Tennessee. The article, published in the Jackson Tennessee Whig newspaper on May 5th, 1871, tells the story of a strange and frightful being that had been observed for several weeks in Piney and McNairy County, Tennessee. This creature was described as being seven feet tall, with great muscular power, large and fiery red eyes, and a body covered in hair. The Wild Man was said to approach women with wild and horrid screams of delight, and even attempted to carry them off. This classic description of what we now call a Bigfoot is both intriguing and chilling. It's amazing to think that people have been reporting sightings of these mysterious creatures for over a century. But what really caught my attention in this video was a small bit of information that TCC Research shared about the history of newspapers. Did you know that the first newspaper in America was published in 1690, called Publick Occurrences Both Forreign and Domestick? It was only published once before being suppressed by the government. It's fascinating to think about how far we've come in terms of communication and the sharing of information. From handwritten newsletters to printed newspapers, and now to digital media, the way we consume and share news has evolved significantly over the years. As Bigfoot believers, it's important for us to stay informed and up-to-date on the latest sightings and research. Videos like the one from TCC Research are a great way to do just that, while also learning something new along the way. So, if you're looking for your next Bigfoot fix, be sure to check out this video and many others like it on YouTube. Who knows what other fascinating bits of information you might uncover!
