A fascinating account of a close encounter with Bigfoot has been shared on the YouTube channel Sussex County Bigfoot. The video, titled "Mike Familant Interview on Bigfoot," tells the story of Mike's first experience with the elusive creature while on a camping trip in North Florida. Mike, an EMT by trade, had always been intrigued by the idea of Bigfoot, but it wasn't until he saw an episode of the TV show "Finding Bigfoot" that he decided to take action. He signed up for an expedition, despite never having camped before, and convinced his partner Jimmy to join him. Their first night in the camp, they heard tree knocks and rocks being thrown in their direction. Mike was ready to leave, but Jimmy was convinced that it could be a squatchy activity. Over the course of 15 minutes, five rocks came crashing down near them. Mike threw one back, and a large boulder landed just a few feet away. This experience opened Mike up to the possibility of Bigfoot, but it wasn't until his second encounter, just three weeks later, that he became convinced. While camping in the Green Swamp Colt Creek State Park in Central Florida, Mike and Jimmy saw two pairs of reflecting eyes, one red and one blue, staring back at them. They initially thought they were people, but soon realized that people don't have eye shine. The defining moment for Mike was when the red-eyed set looked at the blue-eyed set and then blinked. They quickly left the area, but the next day, they returned to find the eyes had been at 7 1/2 feet off the ground. Mike has had several close encounters with Bigfoot, including being within 20 yards of one in Whitehall, New York. He believes that Bigfoot is extremely intelligent, with senses that are on steroids compared to humans. He also thinks that Bigfoot knows when humans are in the area and can choose to stay or leave. Mike is not alone in his belief in Bigfoot. There are many people who have had similar experiences and believe that the creature exists. Whether you believe in Bigfoot or not, Mike's story is a fascinating account of a close encounter with something mysterious and unknown in the woods.
