Initial data
According to the researcher of the mythical creature, a 15-foot bigfoot crept up behind the hunter and grabbed him by the leg.
The existence of bigfoots, also known as sasquatches, has never been proven, but there are countless people who have claimed to have seen them, describing the monsters as huge bipedal animals.
One such case was reported to author and researcher W. J. Sheehan (known as Bill), who recalled it in the Forest Fleur podcast. He said that one person wrote him a letter detailing a frightening encounter in which he allegedly came face to face with one of these creatures during a hunting expedition in the woods in Tennessee, USA, the Daily Star reports.
Bill claimed that the meeting began with a sudden hooting, which was made by the creature, imitating the cry of an owl in the fog in front of him. Bill said that the hunter, whose name was Shane Barclay, thought that he was in a safe place on the watchtower, but even at this height, the "bigfoot" was able to get to him. Reading Shane's account of the incident, he said:
"While I was sitting there, shivering and sweating and not seeing anything until this moment, I suddenly felt something grab me by the heel of my left foot. I immediately jumped on the spot and almost fell off the watchtower, and when I turned my head to look to the left, I stared at the grimacing face of a huge sasquatch. He was looking right at me, crept up behind me, and reached out with his left hand to grab my shoe."
Despite the shock of suddenly meeting this supposedly huge creature, Bill remembered that the beast had not harmed Shane.
He continued:
"The very moment I jumped, he let go of me and just stood there, swaying and looking at me.
As he stood there, the thought flashed through my mind that all this activity and noise was just a distraction that allowed this beast to come to me. It was as if he wanted me to know that he could do whatever he wanted." However, Shane reported that the creature's size was "incredible," saying:
"He was grabbing my heel with his hand 20 feet off the ground. He should have been 14 or 15 feet tall, and with an outstretched arm much taller. His arm should have been 7 or 8 feet long. He had very long gray and white hair, with dark gray skin that was visible on his face and hands, as well as on the upper part of his chest when I looked at her."
According to Bill, the animal eventually descended the path ahead and disappeared into the trees. Shane said:
"I think the creature took about 10 steps to cover 75 feet." Despite the fact that the creature did not harm him, Shane admitted that he was scared. Immediately after the attack, he said that he realized that he had shat himself, and took the next eight days off. Now he claims that he is trying to understand why the creature refused to hurt him, saying: "He could easily have torn me from my chair in the tree, but he didn't, and that's what puzzled me so much."
Original news
A 15-foot Bigfoot snuck up behind a hunter and grabbed his foot in a terrifying encounter, according to a researcher into the mythical creature.
Bigfoot creatures, also known as sasquatches, have never been proven to exist but there are countless people who claimed to have seen them – describing the monsters as huge, two-legged furry animals.
One such sighting was reported to author and researcher W.J. Sheehan (known as Bill), who recalled it on the Forest Fleur podcast.
He said a man had written to him detailing a chilling encounter where he had supposedly come face to face with one of these creatures while on a hunting expedition in a forest in Tennessee, US.
Bill claimed the experience began with a sudden eruption of hooting noises, which was supposedly the creature imitating the call of an owl through the fog in front of him.
Bill said the hunter – called Shane Barclay – thought he was safely positioned in a watchtower, but even at that height, a "Bigfoot" was able to reach him.
Reading Shane’s account of the incident, he explained: “As I sat there trembling and sweating – and having seen nothing up until this point – I suddenly felt something grab the heel of my left boot.
“I immediately jumped to the point of almost falling out of the stand, and as I turned my head to look down to my left, I was staring at the grimacing face of a huge sasquatch.
“He was looking directly up at me having snuck up behind me, and was reaching up with his left hand to grab hold of my boot.”
Despite the shock at suddenly being confronted with this supposedly huge creature, Bill recalled that the beast did not harm Shane.
He continued: “The very moment that I jumped he let go and just stood there, kind of swaying and watching me. As he stood there the thought ran through my mind that all of the activity and noises were just a distraction that allowed this beast to walk up on me unaware.
“It was as if it wanted me to know that it could do whatever it wanted.”
Still, Shane reported that the creature’s size was “unbelievable”, saying: “He was grabbing my heel with his hand 20 feet off the ground.
“He would have had to be 14 or 15 feet tall, with his arm extended well beyond that. His arm would have had to have been 7 or 8 feet long.
“It had very long grey and white hair, with dark grey skin that was visible on its face and hands, as well as the upper chest as I looked down at it.”
According to Bill, the beast eventually took off down the trail ahead and disappeared into the trees.
He suggested that Shane said: “I think the creature took about 10 steps to cover 75 feet.”
Despite the creature failing to harm him, Shane apparently confessed he was left terrified by the incident.
Just after the attack he said he realised he was “peeing myself”, and went on to take the next eight days off from work.
Now, he claims he is trying to figure out why the creature refused to hurt him, saying: “He could have easily torn me from my chair in the tree but he didn’t, and that’s what has left me so puzzled.”
