THE BEST way to not ever have an bigfoot encounter and to be completely safe from the dangers of bigfoot is to always have a quality camera with audio that is live streaming or is recording at all times.

My experience:

Back in the late 90s before I joined the service I was working a diner type job that usually required me to be a closer as everybody hated late night cleanup. It was spring time in the Black Hills, I had to drive about 12 miles to get home. Stayed later than usual cleaning up the restaurant that night. Nobody on the roads really as I drove out of town into the hills. I liked driving at night with the windows down, no radio, air was a comfortable temp, it was close to a full moon so in the hills the moonlight was pretty strong letting you see most things clearly. The highway was one lane each way winding through the mountains to an elevation of about 4500 feet. Some country style houses with roughly 1-2 acres of yard for each. You could see anything in the open clearings outside of the pine trees with the moonlight. Had some experiences of unusual things as a kid but this was a first as I was older. Drove a lifted old ford pickup that stood about 7ft to the top of the cab, my eye level about 6'5 while sitting inside. Was about 4 miles from my destination and had just passed some houses then started coming up on a small restaurant on the left. The highway opened up to allow for a left turning lane. I was about 200 ft from the turn and started to see a dark object standing in the turn lane. Caught me off guard, I had felt things watching me in the woods before but never anything substantial. As I drove up on it going about 55-60 mph, I was squinting to figure out what it was. Happened almost as if in slow motion, covering the 200ft felt like a moment stopped in time as I realized the figure was as tall as the cab of the truck, with a long arm stretched out as if to try to touch my elbow as I had it resting out the truck window. It was at least 7ft, dark like a shadow, almost half in, half out of this reality, felt feminine, definitely not trying to scare or harm me, absolutely wanted to make contact. I don't scare easy but I can feel when "unique" things are near my presence. Every hair on my body was standing up, my adrenaline had shot through the roof, eyes wide open, mumbling to myself as I kept driving, almost drove through the next turn, felt an absolute electrical charge pulsating throughout my body, my body/energy was in shock from feeling something never experienced before. I was young so it scared me but now older, I see it was being friendly to me. Some are meant to see, some are not but you have to have a good heart/energy for them to want you to know. I served 15 years after, seen two hostile fire combat deployments, held a security clearance that required a polygraph and been exposed to many classified projects. What I wrote here is true. I've worked alongside men whom killed for a living, each of us have unexplainable stories so to those of you in the civilian world, do not discredit something because it gives you fear. Temper your fear and experience something beyond a closed mind, we exist on this planet together. Death is watching you the moment you're born into the world.

I’m a Native American and I live on the wind river reservation I’ve heard stories of Bigfoot maybe being a spirit or something, I heard a story where Bigfoot was bothering some local natives and one of them started to sing and so did the Bigfoot, I’ve personally never experienced a encounter with him but it makes you wonder.

BIGFOOT! The Undefeated, Hide and Seek Champion!

[johnadams]

I have spent over 50 years hiking, backpacking, tent camping, and snow shoeing in the mountains of the NE US, primarily as a solo outdoors man. I have never seen, smelled, or come across tracts of anything that could have been made by a Bigfoot. That said, there are still a lot of wilderness areas in our country where an animal of that size and nature could live and avoid people.

William Shatner the only person who can match Leonard Nemoys voiceovers legendary status

This dude backhanded a Bigfoot approaching his tent at night.... balls of steel. Not something a hipster vegan millenial would do.

[halaeburgess]

My dad made claim's he saw bigfoot... The scare caused him to drive backwards down a snake road.. I laughed when he told his story, but that hill is dangerous to drive forward, so to drive backwards and risk death .. he had to be scared shitless.. 👀👀👀👀 Rip Daddy.. I believe you.. 👣

[chucktwnkid]

I had my tent pushed in slightly by a large hand in Uwharrie National Forest one night. Had a few other things happen too, rocks, noises, crashes in the forest… fun times

[patrickhenry]

It's quite possible there are underground cave networks in the vast forests where 20 or 30 of these creatures could live and breed.

[frankieford]

Same exact thing happened to me upstate Ny in 1974....During a camping trip...full moon...probably 2am...large hairy hand slid down the top of my tent....hand was a third larger than a human hand with thick fingers...I always felt uneasy at that particular campsight...like you were being watch....

My grandma, who is a Japanese and lived through WWII as a child, always recalled and told us that she saw a bigfoot in the mountains of Wakayama. She said it was big, hairy, and red. Without jokes, our family now think that it was an American POW who escaped into the mountains.

[kenshaw]

I seen Bigfoot 13 years ago! Changed my life, people think I’m crazy. No doubt what I seen, I’d like to go back because I’d do things completely different if I knew I was going to see this humanoid creature!

[frozengamer]

Just because we haven't seen one it doesn't mean they don't exist.

[miguelcordeiro]

I love how the only thing they can comprehend and make a Bigfoot sound like as an angry lion. Trust me it's way worse than that.

[MrFossilabgfyth]

In my opinion, I think that Bigfoot exists. Bigfoot is one of my favorite cryptids.

[toddolson]

I've never seen a live big foot, and hope I never do. But I believe I've seen a footprint of a possible creature having a human type footprint. What was strange about it was that it had an inverted conical indentation in the heel of it, like it had an abnormal growth. I looked around but found no sign of anymore. The footprint was in the mountains where we were elk hunting on the side of a hill heading down to a stream. I had my camera though it never even crossed my mind to take a picture. Took place some 23 years ago. There are other accounts told to me by people I know personally, which are very bizarre surrounding these phenomena. If yer not out in the hills, you'll never know what can go on, or what you will see out of what most would think ordinary. It's easy enough to dismiss all this as a hoax, if it will let you sleep more soundly.

[captaintom]

I want to hear more from that guy. Said he talked to 25 people

[mattbaker]

I didn't believe in their existence until I found a footprint in a narrow creek bed while hunting last year. I took a picture, some believe me and others say I made the track myself, right on.
