Im From the North East of India, even in our Tribes folklore we have our own version of Bigfoot we call it Mande-Burung. A creature 10feet tall as old as Earth itself. We rever them as the 1st Humans.
That is interesting. Could you speak more on the Yeti/Sasquatch/etc., being the original human? This is reminiscent to me of the inference by North American native tribes, the fossil record, and scientific research, substantiating the existence of a, "first man," who initially populated the Americas. Said to be Cro-Magnon or Neanderthal-like in constitution and stature, and to have evidence of massive injuries to the bone remains indicating that, throughout its lifetime, he would have had to have survived and withstood many life-threatening injuries that would have been sufficient to end the life of a modern proto humanoid like ourselves today. These people are said sometimes to have been of Continental African origins, or more commonly understood as the first wave of migration across the Bearing Straight. Followed nearly twenty thousand years later by the current population of native peoples scatterer out upon the American Continents. These second wave humans were said to have at least in part bred with these original humans that has made native Americans genealogically distinct from their East Asian roots. Interesting concept.
@@timothyodaniell9119 idk if you've heard about the konyak headhunter tribe of nagaland, but in one of their villages there is an old large wooden carving made of a large tree of unknown dating, they said it was made by a founder of their village a long time ago which they cannot pin point, but the thing which is peculiar about this carving was that i contained carvings of ape like creatures slowly stage by stage carved and looking more human like each stage and the locals claimed that their forefathers told them tales of how men were once apes and slowly became modern men, this is absolutely crazy because Darwins theory of evolution would not have reached this remote village whenever this thing was carved, so it might possibly predate darwins theory of evolution as a whole. for all we know the carving could be 300-1000 years old.
I'm from southern India, but when I visited the Northeastern states I heard a lot of folklore, especially in Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh, I also remember hearing folklore describing a UFO hovering over the Mountains and recently there were news reports with several video proofs and eye witness of a UFO spotting in Imphal over Manipur's capital city but I vanished as soon as the Indian Airforce scrambled it's fighter jets You can still find a lot of news reports regarding this, just go on Google and type 'UFO in Manipur' here are some headlines "Air Force scrambled Rafales after 'UFO' sighting near Imphal airport", "‘Unidentified flying object’ sighted at Imphal airport; flight operations disrupted" some people do say that it could be a Chinese weather (spy) balloon or drone, but it was moving like crazy so it's a bit of a mystery
Some years ago I took a class from a well respected forensic anthropologist, as in, he sometimes canceled class because the FBI had called him in to consult and look over human remains that their own forensic teams couldn't figure out. The guy was good, and he was always willing to meet after class and tell stories or answer questions, so long as the meeting was in a bar and you were buying. Consequently, I hung out with this prof a number of times and talked to him about a number of subjects, including the Shipton photos from the 50s. Finger and footprints weren't necessarily my old professor's speciality, but he knew more about the traces and signs of hominids than most people on earth. His verdict on the Shipton photos: 100%, no doubt, genuine. Even the very best fakers wouldn't have been able to reproduce some of the details that can be seen in those photos; they are undoubtedly from actual bipedal locomotion through snow. Arguments from authority are inherently fallacious, of course, but I got more than that, I got a very logical argument from an authority on the subject, and I've been a believer ever since.
I wonder what he thinks about the Patterson film? I watched a documentary that pretty much proves to me that it's the actual bigfoot that he filmed! The walk couldn't be reproduced by a human and you can see the muscle moving under the skin and the arms are always in real films or pictures are always much longer than humans!!! I myself believe that they are nothing but the giant apes that they say are instinct that we have bones off!
Do yall live in an area where it never snows? Because that's not how snow behaves when you walk on it, i could understand thinking that if you've never walked in snow before
Dude, the timing! Thank you. You stopped my doom scroll and this might actually help me wind down enough to maybe sleep. Which is a weird thing to admit, really, when listening to stories about people's traumas and encounters...
It’s not surprising that other surviving hominids would retain a tradition of avoiding man like the plague; it’s the difference between life and annihilation.
Just the other day I was walking through the woods and saw a Bigfoot so I immediately whipped out my potato and snapped a fuzzy blob. I also collected a sample of hair that got stolen by men in black suits who appeared in the middle of the night. 🙄
@@vandal1764hair has been tested many times and been found to be related to human but not human, with a common ancestor going back tens or hundreds of thousands of years. It is always dismissed as people believe they are apes, and the results dont show apes - but they are a related hominid species
When you consider that the entire hominid geneline has a history of hunting one another for food or driving one another out due to competition, it definitely fits the bill.
@@LowBrandonBecause they’re sister channels. Bedtime Stories was founded first, and then Wartime stories. See it as a “spinoff” to Bedtime Stories focused on mysteries and myths that are wartime related. WS’ first video also mentioned this, and so did BS when WS was launched. You can also find a link to BS at the bottom of every caption of WS video’s.
Many of my friends are from the North Indian Himalayan ranges. Their ancestors used to speak of these creatures, and much deeper folklores from the village. I am glad finally these stories came out in a bigger platform. 🙏 Thanks @Wartime Stories.
Always interesting to get a local perspective I imagine if they exist their population/area is probably shrinking or hidden far off the beaten path now
The less people know about them the better. If you know stories, keep them with yourself. If one gets found, they will bring their guns and weapons to kill off another species like they did to countless others. I kind of like the idea that China has Tibet. If it was with India, we would have signed a deal with some capitalist from Mumbai and built tourist resorts there where people from the cities and across the world come to drink and smoke. These are our holy places. The more unnecessary public is kept away, the better. Let the Gurus or the Yetis stay where they are. It is a place to find wisdom and meaning of life not a party capital. Uttarakhand and Himachal has gone to the dogs. All you find is Israeli smokers & drinkers stoned everywhere. We need to build separate places for tourism and holy pilgrimage sites.
I have a friend who is an oceanographer tell me something about people hunting for cryptids. He told me how things like the kraken were though to be myths since ancient times, and it was only 20 years ago we proved the Giant Squid actually exists. He was very sagely saying scientists shouldn't rush to prove something exists or not if they don't believe it exists in the first place.
Very correct in fact some versions of the kraken when exploring the landscapes of Scandinavia seem to be more geologic sites and issues while others are very much like the greenland shark a species of animal that modern science either nevee knew about or only recently discovered.
Its something completly different to discover unknown sea creatures than a 2,5 m tall humanoid on land. All literaly all land animals that are bigger than a cat are known to science. The discoveries that are made today are different types or breeds of already known species.
@@ReinersBlauerHoden people are really going "well sure we haven't found that one extremely striking looking creature, or any tangible traces of its existence really, in that area of the world were supposedly all of these people know about it, but we said that about the colossal squid and they lived in the much more accessible bathypelagic zone of the antarctic ocean. Also we knew about the colossal squid's existence from remains found in the stomachs of whale but that doesn't count we totally just discovered them twenty years ago."
My biology professor (who was trained in anatomy) once gave me some very sage advice as well - a good scientist is only 99% sure that they're right. Because at the end of the day, new facts and new knowledge can be found that will change what's considered to be established fact.
I definitely agree. I'm also 100% positive that whatever anything is, science will work it out eventually. Cryptids, UFO's, ghosts, etc. We know how very little we know about the universe and how it works. We can measure things that we can't see or hear. Not to mention how little we know about the brain. We'll get there. Hopefully 😂
I think we should leave them alone and not disturb them since they don't disturb us Probably they are the second most intelligent species after humans If we find them then it will be a threat to their lives due to poaching and hunting
Honestly, i really isn`t farfetched to think that even something as big as the Yeti could evade human contact for so long. The himalayas are a deathtrap for humans, even for the most well prepared, and only a few native people are regularly hiking in these mountain ranges, so yeah. Just think of the Okapi. It lived in the densely forested heart of the Congo and was for the longest time considered a myth. Until it was actually found. Maybe we too are living in these twilight days of the uknown, where we just haven`t been in the right place at the right time. Great video as always.
The more evidence I see, the more likely it seems that these Yeti are some species of ape that we have yet to catalogue. Possibly related to orangutan, given the shape of the foot and the reported color of the hair
It seems these creatures are in and out of our reality, almost like UFO's, ghosts, etc. as if they can be physical one moment then non physical the next.
Mountain Gorillas were unknown to Western mankind until 1902. Yeti, if it exists, would live in an even more remote environment. So, it is conceivable that something like this creature lives in the Himalayas.
It hasn't evaded human contact, the locals know of it and come into contact with it. The only issue here is because the human isn't western or white and so therefore the usual dismissal is that either the native "witness" must have misidentified it, didn't actually see it, must have imagined it or the best one: the locals are superstitious. But if a white person says he saw something then their account must hold some truth and therefore there could be something to it, everyone else is lying. The funny thing is the locals who inhabit these areas since the beginning of time have been seeing these things for years now through countless generations and they even have local names for them, but nooooo, their accounts are not white enough and therefore not worthy of being believed, so they dismiss them as "myths and legends" to further add to the attempted discredit. This is the norm with cryptids worldwide.
Yetis stories are popular for hundreds of years in my Himalayan belt. Throughout my childhood i spent my vacation times in Sikkim and Nepal and have heard many stories of Yetis. Yetis have a huge story line in Tibetan culture. For non-himalayan people Yetisv are as much as loch Ness monster for rest of the world. Even Herge's Tintin has a adventure story of Yeti.
And they're called several other nicknames here in the South and Central United States in the mountains regions. What boogers, skunk apes wildman and several other names probably not suitable for the internet.
I enjoyed this historical compilation as I spent 2 years in the Hindu Kush and love anything pertaining to the Himalayas. Man’s “self-assured wisdom”…hit the nail on the head.
@@f.dmcintyre4666 yes, I travelled to various FOBs on the Pakistan border providing security for our troops and training crews. I’d always wanted to go there and really enjoyed every moment. I didn’t have the freedom unfortunately to just go or hike wherever I wanted though. But I saw a LOT.
@@tonybahama6817I’d love to hear some stories. I figured you were a contractor or a service member. There is talk of these large humanoids in the Hindu Kush area as well. Did you hear anything of that?
@@italian1ist I’ve actually spent time at the Torkham Gate border crossing between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Other places in or next to the Hindu Kush. I’d heard the Kandahar giant story while in Afghanistan, doesn’t surprise me considering the history there.
The comment from Jane Goodall was the icing on the cake. She echoed a thought I had during the video - every populated continent in the world has a similar legend, and they’ve got to be coming from *somewhere*, and where else but experience.
In Indonesia in the island of Sumatra we have the stories of the Orang Pendek, which is reported to look like the Bigfoot and Yeti but smaller in stature
@@OffGridInvestorprobably the same but his accounts is in Sumatra while the other is in a smaller less inhabited island(forgot the name) so the chances that they are different is possible.
Did you know that you’re a sinner? But did you know that Jesus loves you and He can change that, all you have to do is believe that He died on the cross and rose from the grave 3 days later, repent, and accept God into your life, it’s your choice, Jesus loves you.
Bro I got to work at 1pm yesterday and someone just called in sick so I'll be running the plant by myself until 5am. Thank you for this! I will always immediately check out any video you post.
Definitely agree with the last part of this video. "The earth remains quite large" I honestly think that most people just can't grasp how massive this planet is. Not cryptid related, but I live on a small Caribbean island and even here there areas that have never been or will ever be walked on my man. Would love a video on lost expeditions, real and rumored worldwide.
Excellent episode! I don't know how much military activity there's been outside WW2 in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, but there are just as many tales of a "Little Foot." The so-called "Hobbit." Many groups there report it as just another animal. If there's anything military related, could you one day do an episode on that?
All the videos on this channel are great. Your videos exceed most produced television in how captivating they are. This video stands out though. This is really good. Please don't stop (I mean, unless you are burnt-out). This is such a unique and well put together channel. Highly recommend!
@leaveittobeavis. So right! Intro is like tuning into Twilight Zone! Every aspect of production is so professional. War Stories needs to be a series on television or something. This man needs more compensation than youtube dollars.
Just finished a 40 minute virtuous nightmare battle that we lost after 40 minutes, at midnight. Thanks, I really needed this tonight, more than usual. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
It's hilarious all these Americans in the 1950s trekking all over the Himalayas trying to find a yeti when their cousins the sasquatch, elusive as they are, are all over the continental US.
Yeti/Sasquatch, one sometimes with a white winter coat, the other a red-brown coat... I'm willing to believe they're out there, why not? Like, UFOs, they seem to have an association with the paranormal. To the point of even being actually associated directly with UFOs... Weird! I dunno, but I love all this paranormal stuff. But of course, only because of personal experience. Once it happens, your mind's kind of blown from then on. 'Reality' ain't what we think it is...
These things are elusive, I have learned from the family of them that live in a cave near where I live. They are actually cool neighbors however, they love the homemade jerky that I make. They have even traded me pieces of alien aircraft, leg bones from a moth man. Recently, they bought me this little fairy in a cage. Poor thing escaped and got into the bug light. They shrugged their shoulders, asked for more jerky and to watch some more old movies on television. Got to go, one is knocking now, wanting to watch an old movie on the tv, wait he brought fifty more with him this time, oh s…
@@chrisw422 you may want to seek psychological help. You're off your rocker buddy. The sasquatch is real and just because the intelligence agencies have run a successful psyop on you doesn't make them any less real. I've seen them. They're real.
I love how you tell the stories and how genuine and sincere you sound. God bless you and your loved ones and I wish you all the success in whatever you do. 😄
Yeti stories are always fascinating, sniffing out the definite fakes from the more plausible is fun too. A question I like to ask; if these creatures do exist, is do they chose to be more active on the mountains when it becomes too difficult for people to climb? Basically, are they aware of the ‘off-season’ and use those times of year to explore and forage in conditions too difficult for humans to disturb them. Hence why physical sightings are so rare, due to their aversion to people, heck with Everest being constantly full of people these days, any yeti that might have once lived there probably cleared out from the area decades ago.
Now I want some form of collaboration with the channel Bob Gymlan, he's compiled a large number of Bigfoot encounter recountings where he discusses the plausibility of such creatures and has a video on the Yeti where he points out that the theoretical range of these creatures overlaps heavily with that of the Snow Leopards, and they are poached relentlessly every year, yet they are able to elude hunters so what does that say about an animal that's presumably more intelligent.
It seems you never find something if you go looking for it. The only thing I can think of to debunk it is that the sherpas are in on it. They would definitely have financial incentives to keep people coming back.
I understand could be but imo not likely but it is said that they knew long time before about that ,before tourists where hiring the sherpas to guide them through the mountains , Aswell they arent financialy mindsetted as us but more pure hearted ( also due their religion )
In the old west the only way to find an Apache tribe, was to ask an Apache to track them. In this much more remote setting, I can imagine this holds true for the Yeti.
I love this channel. I had a really crappy, depressing day today and really needed something pleasant to distract me, and then I get on RU-vid and find a new video from Wartime Stories! A really interesting one too. I don't know if I believe the yeti exists but I think it's perfectly plausible in principle. There could be a rare primate species in remote regions. The Himalayas, after all, one of the most rugged and remote regions in the world, so if there could be some rare undiscovered animals somewhere, even quite large ones, that would be the place for them to be.
Great video 👍 there's nothing comparable to the idea of being in the wilderness and suddenly becoming aware of a distant unidentifiable figure scrutinising you
Thank you for your thorough 2 episodes on the Yeti/Sasquatch creatures. You presented it factually, and ask all the right questions, without the added intentional mockery that mainstream sources saturate the topic with. As someone who’s come face to face with a Sasquatch, knowing their existence to be a reality, I once again thank you for your accurate portrayal of some past history regarding the Yeti. There’s been a lot more brought to light in recent years than discussed here, but if you’re not someone intentionally keeping up on the subject, you wouldn’t know these things since mainstream media doesn’t report on it unless they intentionally feel a need to mock the topic and those professionals bring out all the evidence now days. (And no, I’m not talking about the sham, knows as Finding Bigfoot tv show). All these tv shows are just money making projects that survive of the mockery of the topic itself. True, credible research and facts, are being discovered almost daily, but you will never hear of these facts on any tv show like “Finding Bigfoot”…. Just FYI. Thanks again, I thoroughly enjoyed it. 👍
I love the argument made at the end of the video ,very well put and the ending sence with the yeti standing behind the hiker ❤ ..thanks for fhe content wonderful as always ❤🎉
Bro, as someone who's been hiking in the Himalayas for the past 4 years and having talked to village elders and shepherds in some super remote, high-altitude areas, I would love to connect with you maybe by December and give you a download of what I've found. You may appreciate It I thought. God bless you. Epic content.
My grandfather worked with Rawicz when he moved to the UK after the war. He left a signed book to my grandfather which my dad showed me when I last visits we the UK a few months ago! Very interesting part of the book, it’s quite a few pages about this sighting.
My favourite channel on RU-vid! Your narration is sincere and the art and sound effects are exceptional! All combined is nothing short of perfection. Thank you for all you do mate! Cheers from Aus
I think Reinhold Messners meeting with this creature must also be mentioned. He says that he met an animal which isn't listed or dicumented until now and that he encoutered one on one of his trips
Great set on the yeti. If you want an interesting dive along similar lines ask servicemembers about bigfoot sightings on base. There are more than a few bases with a history of sightings
This is Content creation at its best. A very well put together documentry, just epic. I am from North India, The Himalayas are vast and the reason why we have not been able to document a video or picture evidence of Yeti is simply because they do not want to be found. It is as simple as that. As mention in this series, the more we try to look for them, the further they go . Contact will be made for sure, but will the person survive to tell about it is different story.
I know four men who served in the army two are my relatives and two are my friends. All four served in the Himalayas, different parts from Kashmir/ladakh to Arunachal Pradesh at different points in time, they'll tell stories after stories of their times there but all of them go silent as soon as I ask them about the Yeti, they don't deny it, they just say they don't want to talk about it or they just are not interested..... for some reason
Excellent as always brother, thank you for the amazing and consistent quality of content you put out. I know Bedtime Stories has already covered this, but I'd love to see something of an in-depth look at the Vietnam Rock Apes that American troops saw/fought during the conflict.
Denisovans are a cousin to humans, like Neanderthals. I.e., they are descendants of Homo Erectus. Meganthropus, on the other hand might either be a larger variant of Homo Erectus or a cousin species to it.
I have told this story before: Born and raised in Western Pennsylvania when I was about 10 and my sister 8 we were exploring the forest on our property behind our home in the mountains when we came upon what we even told our parents at the time was a Bigfoot. It was in a small clearing were maybe 3 apple trees remained in what was once an orchard, and it was picking apples right from the tree..We came within 30 feet before we realized it was there. It had its back to us, and it wasn't very tall, maybe 6', but being children we were scared and hid behind a large oak tree believing that if we can't see it, it can't see us. As I remember it kept its back to us the entire time and never acknowledged our presence I don't know how long we hid, but when I eventually peeked it was gone. That was 40 years ago, and I'll swear this happened until the day I die.
If a person come face to face with Yeti , forget about taking pictures or something like that , the encounter will be extremely shocking or a person can go numb. Moreover, when it gets closer a peculiar smell can be felt and the smell can stuck for days or weeks , my father served Indian army and one of his friend while patrolling near Ladakh , he came across it .
This channel is always excellent, so is Bedtime Stories, thank you! I'd love to know what Yeti tend ro steal. I imagine food and tools would be the safest guess, but what if they're playing a game or something? That could be the first step in communicating with them. The Bigfoot variety are said by some to apreciate ggetting and giving gifts. I'd definitely play with them if I felt safe.
Weather you believe or not be aware of your surroundings,keep an eye on your kids and try not to hike,hunt or partake in any remote outdoor activity alone Just be aware of the possibilities when you’re out there,We sure don’t know it all like we think we do.
BROVO! This one really knocked it out the park. Brilliant editing and consummately professional level voice over in the background together with the content, really did a great job on this one. BRILLIANT!
🇬🇧 My dads oldest brother was a mountain of a man! He stood 6ft 6ins in his stocking feet & was an incredibly gentle & intelligent man. Born in 1918 he joined the British Army as soon as he could & was eventually stationed in India during the British Raj. My uncle devoured books & loved to hear about every country he was stationed in, their history & folklore, myth & legend. While in India he became fast friends with an Indian Professor of Oriental History & he taught alot to my uncle. He told him much of the ancient past is clouded & referred to a myth but much of it was absolute fact. This has recently been verified esp the ancient history of India. However in the days of British occupation of India, much history was put down as myth. Anyway my uncle told me ( i was very young then) & my mum & dad that this professor told him about the Yeti & they were indeed a real species of hominid! The prof showed photos he had taken himself of sightings & footprints of these beings in the Himalayas My uncle said the proof of these Beings was irrefutable & he was shown photos of family groups of Yetis, ie father, mother & children. He was told these Beings arent apes or any other ape primate but a different human species. Who had lived millenia ago before the great flood. They had escaped to the highest mountain areas & ended up staying there & as nature dictates, their species adapted to the colder climate by growing body hair, stronger & taller to survive the higher altitudes etc. They have their own language which was spoken by their origional species before the flood They are aware of our kind & from what they know, have kept away from us. The people of the Himalayas know all about them but say nothing to outsiders, they have lived alongside our species for thousands of years & they have a totally different technology to ours too. My uncle was told the Yeti lived underground & caves hidden deep into the mountains. They buried their dead, were mainly vegetarian & grew plants in their abodes. The Big Foot of the Americas is a similar story to how & why the Yeti came to be. I remember being shown some of the old photos my uncle brought home with him after he left the army. They were amazing & no photoshopped copies in those days & i saw the tall, white haired all over body hair, rather kindly faced Beings & the family groups. I dont know where the photos ended up. My uncle died in the mid 1960s & i dont know if my aunt or cousins took the photos & as we didnt keep in contact with them after my uncle died, i have no idea which is a dreadful shame. Yet it keeps these intelligent Beings safe & hidden. The way it should be. They have a right to be private & not with our crazy civilisation! Thank you for all your War stories! I love hearing about them Peace 🇬🇧👧
Bigfoot and yeti are the same. You're right that they are people, however, evolution doesnt happen that fast. They looked like that before the flood too. I agree with pretty much everything youve said otherwise though. You know the Truth
Lmfao, I hope you're not referring to the biblical flood, because that is literally factually proven false, especially a "global flood". There is no skydaddy, which you should be grateful, considering the multithousand year old, mythological, fictional fairytale books(bible/torah/quran), all describe it as a literal paedophilia loving, genocidal psychopathic skydaddy. There was abso-fucking-lutely no " global flood", nor is their A mythological, fictional, imaginary skydaddy. Lmfao!😂😆😂
I've been in and out of the woods all my life. I started hunting more than 30 years ago. As a hunter, I've taken over a dozen and a half deer. I've seen hundreds.. But I've only ever found one deer skeleton in the woods. Not finding a yeti skeleton means diddly squat.
It was the first video that got me to your channel and since then it's been my only entertainment for the night. Really great channel, I am enjoying it a lot! Keep up the great work!
Yes I agree with Ms Goodall. I live way out of my little no where town. On a hilltop at the end of a long dead-end dirt road...but I have no interesting encounters. An occasional mountain lion and dad said there were black bears at one time but I've never seen one. But to think there could possibly be an uncontacted, uncertain species we have yet to see is what keeps the imagination going. Great story
Love these videos - very well done! If interested, there was a study done by scientists in which they focused on the "Great Aps" and their reactions to camera traps. I thought it to be VERY interesting and very insightful into creatures like the Yeti and Bigfoot / Sasquatch. You can find the actual study, but hopefully, you don't mind my saying this, but you can also find a very well-done breakdown of the study by another RU-vid Creator, Bob Gymlan. It is very well done, in my opinion, and you will find it actually supports many of the conclusions you arrived at yourself at the end of this video.
The Yeti must exist in those vast territories in Asia but when we prove it scientifically who the hell knows . Great show Luke, Thanks for the upload brother 👌
Even though these encounters are rare they do happen. The descriptions are so similar, the footprints and, the best evidence that cannot be faked - hair samples, show how further scientific investigations would be worthwhile !
I must say that I am a long time viewer of your videos and with the 2 part 1 of this, I must actually say. I am very impressed with How you outlined everything in this two part series I love to hear stories about the Bigfoot and all their relatives around the world. And the way you presented this to part one really keeps a person gripped into the story. I look forward to seeing More of your videos keep up the good work.
Recently I went for a trek in Himalayas and our group trek leader who is originally from the foothills of the everest, says he never believed in Yeti. He has seen people using mold in the shape of Yetis foot and tell tourists the next morning that a yeti had walked here.
Sir your channel is absolutely awesome!!! You have over a billion subscribers I'm not joking man I'm so glad I just came across this channel I can't stop watching, My father was In Vietnam
