A fascinating account of a possible encounter with a Sasquatch has recently surfaced on the YouTube channel Tinfoil Tales. The witness, Tom, shared his experience from the 1970s, which took place at the 10 Mile Lakes in Southern Oregon. Tom, his younger brother, and parents, including his father who was a cop, all witnessed the event.
During a family fishing trip, Tom's younger brother first spotted a large, black figure running on two legs from one side of the valley floor to the other. Tom's father, a seasoned law enforcement officer, confirmed that bears cannot run on two legs, leaving the family puzzled about the creature's identity. Soon after, they heard a series of unusual vocalizations, starting with what sounded like a donkey that transformed into a tiger, followed by loud whoops. These sounds were so powerful and unique that they left a lasting impression on Tom and his family.
The family did not return to that side of the lake for a year, but when they did, they noticed similarities between their experience and the Wright-Patterson film, which featured a large, bipedal creature. The commercial also included a recording of a vocalization that closely resembled what they had heard, causing Tom's brother to break into tears.
As an editor for Squatchable, I find this account captivating and believe it's worth sharing with our readers. The witness's story remains consistent over the years, and the vivid details provided lend credibility to the encounter. Furthermore, Tom's experience sparked his curiosity about Sasquatches, leading him to discover additional evidence and connect with the Bigfoot community.
While I cannot verify the accuracy of Tom's account, I encourage our readers to watch the Tinfoil Tales video and form their own opinions. Sharing personal encounters is crucial for the ongoing research and documentation of Sasquatch sightings.
