It would be funny if all along it was Wildbeare Clair doing a stealth camp and in her next video you are the scary intruder and she packs up and goes home. 😂 .. I think some night vision goggles would be useful. Weird how they didn't have torch.
As the old saying goes its better to be safe than sorry , I live on a narrowboat so when I Moore up on a wild moorings I'm like you when you set up camp because the first thing I do is look around to see if my spot is safe
Very well said Josh. Always remember that your personal safety is the most vital thing when camping 🏕️. You acted on your natural instinct and it was the Absaloute right thing to do. Thank you for sharing this video with us. 🙏😊
when i was young my dad told me not to fear the woods or the dark alot of the time city people will freak them self right out and then go home but that fealing you have is normal u just get used to it ive been all over scotland sleeping ruff on my own and you do meet some crazy people out there but me walking aorund scottland was a bit crazy anyway just be more crazy then they are lol
@@campingwithjosh take a ware wolf mask with ya someone staring at ya u turn look at them then scurry toward them ull hear there screems all the way home lol jking
Hi Josh, Thank you for your honesty. If the truth is known we have all experienced something that puts us on edge. Wild camping alone especially in a woodland can create those feelings. You did the right thing. Stay safe and enjoy the wild brother
One sureway to help yourself feel safe or certain get yourself a lil doggie my parson can sniff a fart in a hurricane and hear a mouse sneaking about why early man made them they have the senses we've lost.
LIttle tip while ive been camping alone, is to bring a blue tooth speaker and blast lound music when u get scared. It give u a boost of adreniline and it works very well. Best music i play is like a heart pumping fighting music.
The creepiest thing is how they were able to keep their dog quiet when crashing around your camp that’s some good training. No point in sticking around when there are plenty enough weirdos who will be more than anti social enough to try and scope out whether they’re able to take you on or not. If there was someone there it sounds like they were doing exactly that and trying to figure out if you were alone or not. I think it would be hard for them to keep their dog quiet when we can hear it being quite vocal as you were leaving. Could be a vagrant camping out in the woods trying to figure out if you were a threat to them too. Did you have a reccy around when you went back to see if there was evidence of another camp recently used?
I might have to head in and look especially to see if the camp fire wood has been moved. It could have been two separate people as the dog was heard when I packed up and heard once leaving field. I definitely someone in there as I saw them but I would have heard his dog move about with him. Who knows but defo won't be camping in those woods again. Strange things before have happened to me whilst camping in different areas of those woods.
I lived in the UK for many years and I find your woods and forests very strange and weird . Now back in Europe and I can tell you I feel safer in the woods full of wild animals rather then your spooky empty and foggy countryside with potentially psychotic people.
Hey Josh! I am glad you left early. Whenever things seem weird it's better to leave and be safe, you'll always have another campout. Unfortunately evil is real; whether it is Is people, satan, or other. It's better to flee when things don't seem right. I really enjoy your videos, your channel, and you're attitude. Glad you're safe and I'm looking forward to the next video of fun in the wilderness. Be well and God bless.🙂
during a night of camping last year I was woken up by about twenty coyotes in the woods where I was I preferred to pick up and leave I didn't feel well😅
@@campingwithjosh Yes, the sound woke me up, but seeing the eyes in the light of my headlamp gave me the biggest thrill of my life, and I'm a bit of a daredevil, but that made my blood run cold.😂
look up tree magic, certain trees attract negative entities and them woods can be very creepy, birch woods are best to be in, negative entities are repulsed by birch, birch can also be burned to cleanse a space and rid it of any unwanted energy or entity, I never go into the woods with out a fair amount of incense or resin to burn to ward off any unwanted spirits, I'm not scared of bumping into crazy humans I carry a machete and I'm willing to use it to defend myself but I don't want any run in with any dark entities so that's why I always carry the tools to cleanse a space I'm staying in, many people may think this is garbage but I trust this will find whom its needs to.
Betting it was someone with their dog....but they were definitely not behaving normally. It would have been a miserable night. It could have been the people that put up casper.
Love your honesty, openness and courage in sharing this. Instinct, god, our soul, they do talk to us, lead us, guide us if we listen. At least that’s what I believe. Take care.
BADGERS ! torn apart by badgers, evil eyes glinting in the dark torn apart by badgers ! probably a badger ...... But i feel you I go with the kids and had similar issues and found sketchy sleeping spots from homless people nearby next day Dog would have been snuffling etc arounf the camp and off lead would have walked up to you. I guess it was a nosey walker being a jobs worth why you there etc ive had looks off people but only ever possitive comments so far.......
Could possibly be a dog walker if your in local woods however the mind fabricates fear mate , got to think most of the horror films are based in the woods , but I do respect you for bailing i would also, when in doubt get out, a useful bit of kit would be a trail camera pointing at your camp very good idea if ever you had a confrontation cheap and light weight
Josh, great video! I need to ask: in the beginning when you are just about to enter the woods, there is a hollowed out treet with a burl inside the hollow. It looks like a person! Almost good enough rendition of someone to be artwork! Can you tell me: Did you notice if and/or if you ever go back can you film it close up and slowly? Thanks. And continue to tek care!
I would have bailed too, for sure, what a spooky atmosphere! People can be super weird around stuff they don't understand (like wild camping), I used attend LARP events in foresty areas, and sometimes random people would just follow us around and watch us. Fair enough that they get curious about someone in chainmail in their local forest, but just ask and then leave me to it...
First a ghost and then a robin appears. Robins are messengers of the dead in pagan folklore and can also be an omen of impending death. The veil becomes thinner as we lead up to Halloween. 😅
✌✌Hey Josh, thanks for sharing this and your feelings and your instincts, you showed amazing determination, bravery and composure during this. We salute you!! I reckon I'd have gone after seeing that Casper sheet hehe. For me, you absolutely made the right choice and I look forward to your future camps, shelter builds, dens, overnights or indeed making chips at side of the River, love all your videos as they show possibilities in a relaxed and interesting way, take care Josh, be well and see ya soon.✌✌
I always have my rifle or pistol on me out here Pennsylvania back mountains. I never feel "not safe" lol. The "other guy" is stuck out there with me, not me with him. I'm what goes bump in the night 😂 All that said, I've had some.... possible... Bigfoot/Dogman encounters. Also several late night UFO sightings (I'm talking clear as day UFO rather close overhead)... THAT kind of stuff makes me pack camp and move quickly home lol 👀
Josh, the most dangerous animal you will ever encounter out in the wild is other people. They can be real random. You wouldn't have been able to relax or settle down to sleep if you had stayed. The dogs barking proved something or someone was out there. I wouldn't have stayed either.
the weather is bad the birds are going to take shelter normal although they are not singing anymore! nothing is strange you are just influenced by the foggy and rainy weather and the discovery of the ghost made by kids! you are just a coward
I have seen people out and about before and we chat what I'm up to but for someone to just spy on me and creep about is not cool. You get some odd people about. It's important to listen to your gut when things ain't right. Not something I have done alot with leaving but I can't assume it's always a nice guy. Have you ever wild camped?
@@campingwithjosh yes i make a wild camping or bushcraft or any name you give at that and i hearing the strange noise and a lot of animals screams or stepping or others noises and whatever things work or otherwise they are flesh and blood and I have one or two knives on me or even a tomahawk! I'm not at risk
Cheers buddy! I got it from go army. It's brilliant! Best jacket I ever bought. I added a link in description as I do with all my gear but you'll be able to find it on there. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for 🤙🏻
Man, I’ve been it that situation. Im very hardy nowadays in the woods and sleep like a baby, but once I saw a man on my thermal camera, walking very quietly through the woods about 50 meters away. It was dark and he (or she) wasn’t using a torch. They disappeared after a minute. Why were they there in the dark with no torch? That spooked me and I headed out. Had other experiences also or torches in the night, screams etc…. Yet I keep going out. You now have got to go back there and brave a night. Borrow my thermal camera ! 😂
Good choice mate i think, never underestimate ur gut feeling.. it can be like that camping alone, but i gjink u made a good choice to leave. Good on ya mate for sharing ur experience and being very open bout it. Much respect! 🙏
Do you know what would be a MASSIVE help in these kinds of situations? Some cheap/decent whatever.. THERMAL/INFRARED IMAGING GOGGLES. You wouldn't need to worry then as you could see any heat sources i.e beings around you even in pitched black.
