1 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:05,600 Hello and welcome to the program UFO Warning. 2 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,160 In this episode, we're talking about Alamos the Russian 3 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,320 Bigfoot. That's correct, Alamos, the 4 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,120 Russian Bigfoot. We've been covering Bigfoot a 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,200 little bit lately on the podcast and discussing whether or not 6 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,880 this thing is an actual biological creature, or possibly 7 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:24,680 some sort of Cryptid, or even a alien species. 8 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,560 Perhaps some alien creation put here on planet Earth, and 9 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,480 whether that's just to repopulate the Earth to kind of 10 00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:37,360 spy out the land. Or possibly these creatures are 11 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,120 here as punishment, this might be a prison planet for them. 12 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,480 It's my opinion. It almost seems more like these 13 00:00:44,480 --> 00:00:48,720 things, or some sort of a hybrid interdimensional biological 14 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,400 creature, because the way they seem to appear and disappear, 15 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,680 The fact that we've never found a body, at least that we can be 16 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,360 sure of. But at the same time, they do 17 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,800 leave some physical evidence in the form of cracks. 18 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,240 We've had hair samples found, even though some will say those 19 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,720 hair samples aren't definitive. And people do see these things 20 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,360 they haven't shot at before. But often times when people talk 21 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,800 about shooting these things, they just disappear. 22 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,080 They kind of just kind of go into thin air. 23 00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:19,680 It's as if there are impervious to bullets. 24 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,160 Now, unfortunately, we haven't had anybody wearing a Bigfoot 25 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,600 suit shot and killed, although there was, I believe, a fellow a 26 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,320 few years ago that was trying to do a Bigfoot prank and was run 27 00:01:29,320 --> 00:01:33,000 over and killed by a car. But the reality of these things 28 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,400 are they seem to kind of come into our dimension and then go 29 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,920 again. Oftentimes they're associated 30 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,360 with spacecraft or other paranormal activity. 31 00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:47,320 What I find interesting is, is that these types of creatures 32 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,800 are found all across the planet. They're not just. 33 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,640 They're not just limited to being here in the US. 34 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,680 And one of the places that they're found is in Russia, the 35 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:03,120 old Soviet Union, particularly in the far eastern provinces of 36 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:08,120 of what used to be the Soviet Union, some really rugged area. 37 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:09,800 Now. I found this 38 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:14,200 article@stillwelldemocrat.com looks like an online newspaper. 39 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,120 I'll post a link at the Kofi site. 40 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,400 You can find it there under my UFO warning. 41 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:24,480 It says in the shadows Almas the Russian Bigfoot and this is 42 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,400 written September 18th 2023 written by DWE. 43 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,240 It says Russia and Mongolia have their own type of Bigfoot that 44 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,120 has been named Almas. It's also known as Elmasti with 45 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:42,080 an I or Elmasti with AY, and the general name Almas is a singular 46 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,920 word in Mongolia for Wildman. So just like here with a lot of 47 00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:48,520 the native legends, they view this thing as some sort of a 48 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,240 humanoid creature thought to inhabit regions of Central Asia, 49 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,360 Russia, and the caucus. Almas are generally considered 50 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,240 to be more akin to wild people in appearance and habits than to 51 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,720 apes. In contrast to the Yeti of the 52 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,600 Himalayas or the Bigfoot of North America, Almas are 53 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:11,040 typically described as human like bipedal animals between 5 54 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,560 foot and 6 1/2 feet tall, their bodies covered with reddish 55 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,680 brown hair with anthropomorphic facial features including a 56 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,080 pronounced brow Ridge, flat nose, and a weak chin. 57 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,600 They are usually described as unclothed, but a handful of 58 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,400 sightings referred to primitive clothing. 59 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,040 Many cryptozoologist researchers have been struck by the 60 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,600 similarity between these descriptions and modern 61 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,280 reconstructions of how Neanderthals might have 62 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,040 appeared. You notice here they're going 63 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,600 for a little different angle in in the US these things are often 64 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,040 described as being, you know, 8910 foot tall. 65 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,240 And here they're saying much smaller, 5 foot to 6 1/2 feet 66 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,680 tall. It goes on, it says. 67 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,680 Nearly a year ago, Igor Persev, a homologist in Russia, 68 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,760 attempted to talk to an ALMA on the phone in Russia while giving 69 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,840 a presentation at the Nebraska Bigfoot conference. 70 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,480 Needless to say, this was met with disdain by many in the 71 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,720 Bigfoot community because of the insaneness of his claim. 72 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,320 Well, no matter you know where you come up with these 73 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,200 paranormal activities at that are unexplainable, you're always 74 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,560 going to have some wise guy show up to either try to exploit the 75 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,399 situation or cause enough of a, you know, distraction that 76 00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:23,400 people quit doing serious investigation and just write the 77 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,760 whole thing off. The point is, this creature's 78 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,640 been considered to be around for a long time there in Russia and 79 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,360 the old Soviet Union. Very interesting concept of this 80 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,040 somewhat smaller version, maybe even a subspecies of Bigfoot. 81 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:43,160 Now, this article here is from the unmuseum.org talking about 82 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,920 the Wildman of Central Asia. This article is titled The 83 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:52,000 Wildman of Central Asia and the author refers to this creature 84 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,920 as Alma Alma. He's dropping off the S says in 85 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,040 Central Asia and what until a few years ago was the Soviet 86 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,600 Union, there are stories of a large ape like creature that 87 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,320 inhabits the mountains. It goes by the name of the Alma, 88 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,760 unlike the better known Bigfoot and Yeti. 89 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,280 Reports about the Alma say that the creature is much more of a 90 00:05:14,280 --> 00:05:19,040 rough, hairy human than an ape. Professor Boris Porschev of the 91 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,600 Moscow Academy of Sciences published a description of the 92 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,320 picture based on detailed stories he'd gathered from 93 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,680 people who'd seen it. Quote There is no underlayer of 94 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,760 hair so that the skin can sometimes be seen, says the 95 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,760 report. The head rises to a cone shaped 96 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,200 peak, it continues, and the teeth are like a man's, but 97 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,240 larger, with the canines more widely separated. 98 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,320 Porchnet's description also noted that the Alma can run as 99 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,960 fast as a horse and swim in swift currents. 100 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,720 Breeding pairs remain together, living in holes in the ground 101 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,320 for food. They eat small animals and 102 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,840 vegetables. The creatures are mainly active 103 00:05:56,840 --> 00:05:59,640 at night. The report also noted that the 104 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,800 animals have a distasteful smell. 105 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,160 That's something that we hear quite frequently when we talk 106 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,840 about these reports of Bigfoot. Is this really bad smell? 107 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,320 It says. The first stories of Alma were 108 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,720 gathered in 1881 by NM Pesowalski, a traveler in 109 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,120 Mongolia who also discovered the Mongolian wild horse. 110 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,560 During the Second World War, refugees, soldiers, and 111 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:27,760 prisoners of war often reported seeing the Almah Slavmir Rezbig 112 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,920 in his book The Long Walk. The story of his escape from a 113 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,720 Siberian labor camp tells of being delayed by a pair of 114 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,440 Almahs. Chinese soldiers reportedly put 115 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:42,800 food out for the Almah and watched it eat a stone, and a 116 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:47,640 geologist was prospecting near Tian Sham in 1948. 117 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,880 One morning he awoke to cries by his guides that the horses were 118 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,440 being stolen. Stone and grabbed his rifle and 119 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,520 headed outside to find a figure standing by the horses. 120 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,520 It had long red hair all over its body. 121 00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:04,520 The creature moved off at Stone and shouts and he chased after 122 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,600 it. The animal was so manlike, 123 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,720 though, that stone couldn't bring himself to shoot it, and 124 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,160 the thing escaped. Isn't that strange? 125 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,200 And just kind of in a moment of saying this thing, this guy 126 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,440 realizes that this can't possibly be just, you know, an 127 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,120 animal. He seems like he views it as 128 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,800 some sort of human hybrid. In 1957, a hydrologist named 129 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,320 Alexander G Pronen on an expedition to study water 130 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,640 resources, reported seeing a being of unusual aspect. 131 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,560 It stood at a distance in the snow with his legs wide apart 132 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,000 and with arms longer than a normal man's pronoun. 133 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,320 Watched it for 5 minutes. Then the creature disappeared 134 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,800 behind a rock. Three days later he saw the 135 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,960 figure again briefly. Then a week later one of the 136 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,760 group's inflatable boats disappeared without explanation 137 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,080 and was later found upstream. Pronoun found out that the 138 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:02,000 locals often have blamed the quote Wildman with stealing 139 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,240 household items and taking them into the mountains. 140 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,360 This may put on wonder if the Elmont was responsible for the 141 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,480 missing boat. That's something that we don't 142 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,640 hear a lot about with Bigfoot, with them coming in and stealing 143 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,760 stuff from people's houses. Occasionally you do get these 144 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,440 stories of these strange situations where they take 145 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,880 things often times little trinkets though. 146 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,480 But these guys really seem to be looking for things that they can 147 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,080 use as tools. It goes on and says omelets have 148 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,240 reportedly been shot and killed, but the carcasses have never 149 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,919 been examined by scientists. In 1937, during a clash with the 150 00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:37,559 Japanese, a Russian reconnaissance unit in Mongolia 151 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,720 spotted 2 silhouettes coming down a hill toward them. 152 00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:44,600 When the figures did not respond to a challenge, centrist shot 153 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,960 them. Then the next morning, the Recon 154 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,520 unit was surprised when they examined the bodies. 155 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,000 They were of a strange anthropoid ape that was about 156 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,400 the size of a man and covered with long red hair. 157 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,040 Unfortunately, because of the war, the bodies could not be 158 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,720 returned to Moscow for a proper evaluation. 159 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,240 Now see, that's pretty unusual because normally we never hear 160 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,040 about these things actually being shot and actually killed, 161 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,640 it goes on, it says. While the Soviet Union was still 162 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,880 together, several expeditions were mounted to look for the 163 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,320 Alma. They gathered some interesting 164 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,320 stories and a few unusual artifacts. 165 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,560 No Alma was ever captured, and the Soviet scientists became 166 00:09:24,560 --> 00:09:26,520 split over the value of searching for it. 167 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,400 Doctor Brozhnev took quite a ribbing from his colleagues 168 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,360 because of his work on the subject. 169 00:09:32,680 --> 00:09:36,160 Prozhnev speculated that the creature is perhaps the last 170 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,520 surviving group of the Neanderthal men. 171 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:43,040 At least a few Western researchers, including including 172 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,920 Doctor Myra Sharkey of Leicester University in England, agree 173 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,240 with him. Shackley, who visited Mongolia 174 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,160 in 1979, points out that the entire area is loaded with 175 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,880 Neanderthal artifacts. She notes that if Neanderthal 176 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,040 were to have survived, it would most likely have been in those 177 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,840 areas where the Alma is reported. 178 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,320 I think this is a case where we have normalcy bias creating 179 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,960 creeping in. Seems pretty highly unlikely to 180 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,200 me that we would still have Neanderthal out there running 181 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,320 around this independent population, you know, in modern 182 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,040 times. But the average person is so I 183 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:22,920 think put off and frightened by the paranormal or this concept 184 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,640 of these things could be, you know, interdimensional that they 185 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,000 they will describe it any explanation it says here since 186 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,560 the disburment, since the dismemberment of the Soviet 187 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,320 Union, little has been done to continue research on the Alma. 188 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,480 Those reasons, where it has been reported, are often politically 189 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,800 unstable. And economic conditions in 190 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,240 Russia, who inherited many of the scientific institutions of 191 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,000 the old Soviet Union, have not been favorable to allowing 192 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,800 continued research on the Wildman. 193 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,320 Well, of course, you know, things have kind of changed a 194 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,640 lot in the Soviet in Russia, which you know, the the main 195 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,080 kind of head of the old Soviet Union probably don't have the 196 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,800 resources to look into that stuff. 197 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,600 Now we have another really interesting case here that I 198 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,800 want to take a look at. I found this on Reddit, the user 199 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:14,920 says Marshmallow Snuggles. It's under cryptozoology from a 200 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,040 couple years ago. Like I said, I'll have this link 201 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:22,360 posted at the UFO Warning Kofi site now. 202 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,320 The title of this post says 1925 Encounter with the deceased Alma 203 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,640 in the Premier Mountains. According to a Soviet Major 204 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:37,240 General, Mikhail Stefanovich Toplitzky, in 1925 his forces 205 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,440 chased an opposing guerrilla force into a cave where most of 206 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,760 the enemy met their deaths. However, one of the surviving 207 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,800 enemy soldiers said that while in The Cave they had in a they 208 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,320 had been attacked by a number of ape like creatures. 209 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,920 One of their bodies was brought out about which Major General 210 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,480 Topolsky related the falling, which is here translated into 211 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,560 English. Of course, this would have been 212 00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:07,520 just after during the Russian Revolution when the Communists 213 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,920 were busy murdering anybody who didn't want to go on through a 214 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:15,400 program and that extended to the far reaches of the Soviet Union. 215 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,560 Continue our chase. We caught up with what was left 216 00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:22,840 of the exhausted gang who had stopped for arrest at a place 217 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,600 where the glacier was split apart by stone Cliff. 218 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,040 The upper tongue of the glacier hung from the Cliff in which 219 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,560 there was a crevice or cave. We surrounded the gang and took 220 00:12:32,560 --> 00:12:34,840 up a position above where they were resting. 221 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,080 A machine gun was placed in position. 222 00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:41,120 When we threw the first grenade. A man, a Russian officer, ran 223 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,440 out onto the glacier and started shouting that the shooter would 224 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,040 make the ice cave in and that everyone would be buried. 225 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,560 When we demanded that they surrender, he asked for time to 226 00:12:51,560 --> 00:12:54,960 talk it over with the other bandits and went back into The 227 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,440 Cave. Soon after, we heard an ominous 228 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,360 hissing as the ice began to move. 229 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,320 At almost the same moment we heard shots and not knowing what 230 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,520 they meant, decided that it was the beginning of an assault. 231 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:12,880 So they have, sounds like, pretty much got these these 232 00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:18,080 people cornered back into a cave, these these folks who were 233 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:19,480 resisting the communist takeover. 234 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,280 Pieces of snow and ice started falling down the Cliff, 235 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,880 gradually burying the entrance to The Cave. 236 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,200 When it was nearly buried, three men managed to escape and the 237 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:29,960 rest were buried under the debris. 238 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,720 Our shots killed two of the bandits and seriously wounded 239 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,040 the 3rd. When we reached him, he showed 240 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,280 us the spot where the body of a Russian officer was buried and 241 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,960 we dug it out. The wounded man turned out to be 242 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,560 an Uzbek tea house owner from Smark Land. 243 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,440 We questioned him and he gave us the following information. 244 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,680 While the bandits were discussing are ordered to 245 00:13:52,680 --> 00:13:57,680 surrender, some hairy man like creatures howling inarticularly 246 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,960 appeared in The Cave through the crevice which possibly LED 247 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,480 upwards from The Cave. There were several of them and 248 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,640 they had sticks in their hands. The bandits tried to shoot their 249 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,200 way through. One of the bandits was killed by 250 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,280 the creatures with the sticks. Our narrator received a blow 251 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,520 from a stick on his shoulder and rushed to The Cave entrance with 252 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,760 one of the monsters hard on his heels. 253 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:26,440 It ran out of The Cave after him, but he shot it and it was 254 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,920 buried under the snow. You can imagine that these 255 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:35,000 communist forces had tracked down these resistors. 256 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,720 They the resistors, they run into this cave and his her luck 257 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:44,080 would have it that's a cave full of these Alma or Bigfoot who are 258 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,360 not happy that they are there in their cave. 259 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,440 So the the the poor Alma kind of caught in the crossfire between 260 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:56,400 these communist forces and the rebel forces that are in a 261 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,920 firefight between each other. It goes on. 262 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,240 It says to check up on this strange story we made him show 263 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,000 us the exact spot and clear the snow away. 264 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,800 We recovered the body all right. It had three bullet ones not far 265 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,200 off. We found a stick made of very 266 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,360 hardwood, though it cannot be stated for certain that it 267 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,440 belonged to the creature. At first I thought the body was 268 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,080 that of an ape. It was covered with hair all 269 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,160 over, but I knew there were no apes in the premieres. 270 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,320 Also, the body itself looked very much like that of a man. 271 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,200 We tried pulling out the hair to see if it was just a hide used 272 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,480 for disguise, but found that it was the creature's own natural 273 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,800 hair. We turned the body over several 274 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,560 times on its back and its front and measured it. 275 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,320 Our doctor made a long and thorough inspection of the body 276 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,600 and it was clear that it was not a human being. 277 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,600 It's just imagine that. And these guys are in the middle 278 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,920 of nowhere. The very Far East of what you 279 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,400 know was the Soviet Union. The body belonged to a male 280 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,280 creature 170cm tall. Now that would be about 5 foot 7 281 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,360 inches, elderly or even old judging by the grayish color of 282 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,800 the hair and places. The chest was covered by 283 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,480 brownish hair and the belly with grayish hair. 284 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:12,320 The hair was longer but sparser on the chest, but short and 285 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,480 thick on the belly. In general the hair was very 286 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,160 thick without any under fur. There was also hair on the 287 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,760 buttocks, from which fat our doctor deduced that the creature 288 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,920 set like a human being. There was most hair on the hips. 289 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,720 The knees were completely bare of hair and had callous growths 290 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,280 on them. The whole foot, including the 291 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:39,520 sole, was quite hairless and was covered by hard brown skin. 292 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,920 The hair got thinner near the hand and the palms had none at 293 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,080 all, but only callous skin. The collar of the face was dark 294 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,360 and the creature had neither beard nor mustache. 295 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,160 The temples were bold and the back of the head was covered by 296 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,520 thick matted hair. The dead creature with his eyes 297 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:03,240 open and his teeth bared. The eyes were dark and the teeth 298 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,720 were large and even and shaped like human teeth. 299 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,359 The forehead was slanting and the eyebrows were very powerful. 300 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,440 The protruding jaw bones made the face resembling the Mongol 301 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,920 type of a face. The nose was flat with a deeply 302 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,119 sunken bridge. The ears were hairless and 303 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,680 looked a little more pointed than a human beings with a 304 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,640 longer lobe. The lower jaw was very massive. 305 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,400 It's interesting. The teeth were human like so 306 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,640 many times. With the Bigfoot, we see the 307 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,400 teeth being almost like canines. Is being kind of oversized, 308 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,360 almost like a gorilla, it says the creature. 309 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,320 The creature had a powerful chest and will develop muscles. 310 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,760 We didn't find any important analytical differences between 311 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,360 it and man. The genitalia were like a man's. 312 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,560 The arms were of normal length, the hands were slightly wider 313 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,200 and the feet much wider and shorter than a man's. 314 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,360 Now that's where the feet were shorter. 315 00:18:00,360 --> 00:18:03,280 It says with the Bigfoot, at least in the US, the feed of 316 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:08,160 course are very big and the arms are extremely long compared to a 317 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,560 humans. You can see that in the 318 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,120 Patterson Gilman film. These hands in these things just 319 00:18:12,120 --> 00:18:15,160 seem to extend down about maybe half again as long as the 320 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,080 humans. That's why when I see that 321 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,920 Patterson Gilman film, it seems so real to me because why would 322 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,760 they go to the trouble of making the hands so extremely long in 323 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,720 in that costume and they seem to move as a creature walks. 324 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,960 That's what's so weird. I mean that detail, these really 325 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:36,880 long hands at the end of these really long arms now, the 326 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,680 article concludes. It says we did not know exactly 327 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,000 where we were because no accurate maps of the premieres 328 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,360 were then in existence. But we must have been somewhere 329 00:18:46,360 --> 00:18:49,520 between the Yasgulum and the Russian ranges. 330 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,080 As we had completed our task, we had to return. 331 00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:57,000 The nature of the dead creature presented us with a problem, but 332 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,160 it was impossible to take the body with us on the difficult 333 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,400 trek that lay ahead. Also, it could have caused 334 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,480 complications with the local population. 335 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,600 We would say, of course, that we were carrying the body of an 336 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,720 animal, but the creature looked too much like a human being. 337 00:19:12,120 --> 00:19:14,800 We thought about skinning it, but it was too much like 338 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,760 skinning a man. At the end we decided to bury 339 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,840 the creature where we had found it. 340 00:19:20,120 --> 00:19:23,200 We did not try to enter The Cave because we were afraid of 341 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,440 another cave in. So of course they're talking 342 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,800 about being there in the winter time, lots of snow around. 343 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,040 They didn't want to get trapped in that cave, even though the 344 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,120 the rebel that they had encountered told them that he 345 00:19:35,120 --> 00:19:38,360 thought that the these creatures, these almost had come 346 00:19:38,360 --> 00:19:41,080 in through another entry into The Cave. 347 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,040 You know, you can imagine that these things were there. 348 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,680 They would have known their way around pretty good. 349 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,240 Interesting how this is so much smaller than what we would 350 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:54,480 perceive as a Bigfoot, but it also demonstrates a lot of more 351 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,560 human like traits than what we think of Bigfoot. 352 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,280 As far as, you know, using tools, maybe even interacting a 353 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,640 little bit with these people. It's very strange stuff. 354 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,640 I want to look at one more account then before we close 355 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,800 this out now. This last article that we're 356 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,920 looking at comes from monstrous.com and it's titled 357 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,920 The Almsty. It's ALMASTY. 358 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,840 It says the almsty Mongolian for Wildman. 359 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,560 Is an alleged hominid Cryptid said to inhabit the Caucus and 360 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,800 Premier Mountains of Central Asia and the Altai Mountains of 361 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,520 southern Mongolia. Almus is a singular word in 362 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,360 Mongolia. Variants of the word include 363 00:20:31,360 --> 00:20:34,880 almus, T the Snowman, djangla, mash, Man of the Forest, 364 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:40,800 Wildman, Barmu or chuchuna, and the contrast to the Yeti of the 365 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,920 Himalayas and the Bigfoot of the Americas. 366 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,240 The almus is generally considered to be more akin to 367 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,320 wild people and appearance in habits than to apes. 368 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,560 Owl mosses are typically described as human like bipedal 369 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:58,400 animals between 5 and 6 1/2 feet tall, their bodies covered with 370 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,960 reddish brown hair, with anthropomorphic facial features 371 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,560 including a pronounced brow, rich flat nose and a weak chin. 372 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,000 His arms are shorter than the yetis. 373 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:13,040 He has less hair, black or brown on the face and body than any 374 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,680 other hominids. Many cryptozoologists 375 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,200 researchers believe there is a similarity between these 376 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,720 descriptions and modern reconstructions of how 377 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,360 Neanderthals might have appeared. 378 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,040 He is said to feed on berries. Sometimes he attacks sheep but 379 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,760 eats only their liver. Being a nocturnal creature, it 380 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,160 is very difficult to catch a glimpse of this elusive hominid. 381 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,200 As a rule, the snowman leaves no traces of its death. 382 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,400 That's just like the Bigfoot. We can't seem to find a body of 383 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,040 these things. It says the Caucus Mountains, 384 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,440 the Pannier, Alti Mountains, W Mongolia, the Urals and the 385 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,920 Russia Northwest, the Cholesky isthemus, a 90 mile long 386 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,720 Isthemus in Karelia between the Gulf of Finland and Lake Ladoga. 387 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,640 There had been interesting sightings in the Arkanagelsk 388 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,080 region as well. Other paranormal phenomena, UFOs 389 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,800 and biophysical phenomenus have been reported in the Premier 390 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,280 Mountains. So there you go. 391 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,720 We have these UFO sightings right along with these Almasti 392 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,880 or Alma, what we might think of as a type of Bigfoot now under 393 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,080 sightings, it says. For centuries, reports about 394 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:25,360 strange creatures and rituals have leaked from the taiga Hamas 395 00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:29,200 appear in the legends of local people who tell stories of 396 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,960 sightings in human Alamos. Interactions dating back several 397 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,160 100 years. Sightings recorded in writing go 398 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,960 back as far as the 15th century. In some cases, people have 399 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,800 attempted to shoot the creature. These individuals reportedly 400 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:47,240 died afterwards under mysterious circumstances. 401 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,920 In 1430, Hans Schlitberger recorded his personal 402 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,840 observation of these creatures in their journal of his trip to 403 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,480 Mongolia as a prisoner of the Mongol Khan Slip. 404 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,160 Burger also recorded one of the first European sightings of 405 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,560 Prozwowski horses, and they cite the manuscript in the Munich 406 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,720 Municipal Library. It says 1603 by 210 Shackley 94. 407 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,960 He noted that Almasti are part of the Mongolian and Tibetan 408 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,480 apothecaries Materia Medica, along with thousands of other 409 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,680 animals and plants that Live Today. 410 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,000 So they just listed these things as an animal. 411 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,440 It's like any other animal to them. 412 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,000 There was just no question that they were real and that they 413 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,160 existed. Goes on it, says British 414 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,880 anthropologist Mira Shackley. In Still Living Question Mark 415 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:41,160 describes Ivan Avila's 1963 observation of a family group of 416 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,320 Almas Ivla. A pediatrician decided to 417 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,760 interview some of the Mongolian children who or his patients, 418 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,280 and discovered that many of them had also seen Almas's. 419 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,200 It seems that neither the Mongol children nor the young Almas 420 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,320 were afraid of each other. Ivor's driver also claimed to 421 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,440 have seen them. Now the author tells us that 422 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,680 Russian researcher Alexei Stitenkov and his team of 423 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,080 researchers reported a very strange encounter that took 424 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,160 place in 1993 while on their way to Lake Tony. 425 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,080 The explorers have been planning to study the area for several 426 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,960 years, but have been unable to do so because of a lack of 427 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,120 resources and the wretched state of the Russian economy. 428 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,720 Their plan was to determine the optimal time to conduct an 429 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,720 expedition to search for proof of the possible habitation of a 430 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,840 gigantic serpent in the region. There have been numerous reports 431 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,160 about the existence of such a serpent and the far eastern part 432 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:38,440 of Russia and the Promiscaya Taiga. 433 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,040 The group of explorers had barely begun their trek when 434 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:46,320 they had encountered a creature known to the locals as Snowman. 435 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,880 They were crossing the river on a raft and on the other Bank of 436 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,880 the river noticed a man who was covered with reddish fur. 437 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,280 The creature turned around, made a sound resembling grunts, and 438 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,760 then disappeared in the thicket. A few seconds later, the raft 439 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:06,720 had reached the shore, and Sitkanakov had a colleague chase 440 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,520 the creature. Their fellow explorer Sergey, 441 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,160 guarded the raft. They did not find the creature 442 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,240 and came back to the river. Sergey did find a barely visible 443 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,960 footprint at the site where they first sighted the snowman. 444 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:25,440 Sitkanov recalls that the creature was only 3 meters away. 445 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,880 So what, 10 foot? When they saw it and it was 446 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,320 plainly visible, The weather was sunny and clear. 447 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,760 The creature was about two meters in height, so we figured 448 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:39,280 maybe 6 1/2 foot tall. Its fur was of a dark hue and 449 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,480 not thick. Its head was somewhat triangular 450 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,680 in shape, widening toward the base. 451 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,040 The base was straight, but from the forehead toward the crown of 452 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,840 the head, narrow. It's kind of a conehead shape. 453 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,760 The creature had small eyes, wide nostrils, and a slit in 454 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,280 place of a mouth. The neck was not visible, and it 455 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,520 looked like the head was placed on wide shoulders. 456 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,800 They're talking about a slit in place of a mouth. 457 00:26:04,120 --> 00:26:07,000 Look at that creature in the Patterson Gilman film. 458 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,040 Look at the mouth on that thing. It's weird. 459 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,240 Kind of like this slit. It says it possessed a powerful 460 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:13,600 chest. Sick enough. 461 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:17,200 Had collected many descriptions of the snowman, and it has 462 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,640 gathered statements from the local populace, including 463 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,400 hunters who have encountered Bigfoot in the wild. 464 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,600 Secret settlements have been found deep in the thick woods 465 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,560 and the settlements, I think they just mean where maybe a 466 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,400 half a dozen dozen things are sleeping at night. 467 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,640 I don't know if these things are ever known to use fire or any 468 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,920 kind of advanced tools, it says. Theories. 469 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,160 Soviet scientists speculate that you can represent the last 470 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,680 surviving remnant of the Siberian paleo Asiatic 471 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:49,400 Aborigines that retreated to the upper reaches of the Yana and 472 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,480 Decura rivers. Mayra Shackley and Bernard 473 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,480 Havmus both wrote that the almus are a relic population of the 474 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,160 Neanderthals, while Lauren Coleman suggested surviving 475 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,920 species of Homo erectus, another election. 476 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,320 Another explanation is that they are purely mythological 477 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,880 creatures since no hard evidence such as skeletons or specimens, 478 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,960 etcetera have been found. Well, you know, we don't have 479 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,160 dead bodies and like I said, that's another reason why I find 480 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,680 these things to most likely be some sort of interdimensional 481 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,800 creature where they're just coming and going very strange. 482 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,120 But you can see this is happening all over what would be 483 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,480 now considered, you know, the far reaches of east of the 484 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:34,120 Eastern Soviet Union in these very remote areas where whatever 485 00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:38,000 they are, they have the opportunity to get away from 486 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:43,360 modern human life pretty much and just exist or live however 487 00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:46,720 they do on their own without interference from man. 488 00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:49,600 But there we have it. We have these Bigfoot type 489 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,000 sightings. Even though they're different, 490 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,080 they demonstrate so many of the same similarities to what we 491 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:55,640 would think of as American Bigfoot. 492 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,080 Whatever these things are, they're clearly spread out 493 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,040 across the globe. Until next time, this is UFO 494 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:03,320 Warning. Over and out.
