My point, and I believe Vort's point is that Narcolepsy does not affect only unhealthy people, it affects otherwise healthy people as well.

I am healthy and athletic. I got narcolepsy one time from some Cuervo. One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, FLOOR!

When it was standing there I could see muscles moving and tendons

The muscles on the neck, arms and back. Such as the deltoids, lats and triceps. The fur was mated and caked with mud in places. There were also some thinner fur patches where it was easier to view the skin, especially in places on the back. The fur on the depiction is cosmetically neater then the real animal. That artwork is to be used for a book by the artist, so keep that in mind.

Besides the seeing-a-nonexistent-animal part, it's the level of details in John's encounter story that has me skeptical. It was supposed to be about 50 yards away (150'). Yet he talks about seeing muscles, tendons, eyes and the little berries in spite of intense fear and nausea.

Given the distance, those kinds of details wouldn't be visible or noticed even if it was a (upright) bear. It's as if Bigfoot caused John to suddenly have bionic vision and memory.

Do you remain friends with these people to this day?

Absolutely not. It ruined my friendship. In fact, when my (ex) friend tried to embarass me about it in school later that year, I beat the crap out of him and got a suspension. They moved away 20 years ago anyway.

It's a shame that various factoids cannot be confirmed as true. We have no access to the others that were hunting with John in order to confirm anything. We can't confirm that he was actually suspended from school for fighting over a Bigfoot encounter.

Longtabber had two encounter stories. In both cases the other witnesses were unavailable for confirmation of various things. It was only after years of BF postings that LTPE was found to have fabricated his military history by way of an official inquiry. Too bad we cannot find out if John actually was suspended for fighting in school. We can't even confirm that he went hunting with his friends.

John, I have a few questions.

1) It was between September and October in North Carolina. Were there many insects such as mosquitoes in the woods by the Pasquotank River?

2) From the time you came to the Pasquotank, can you remember everything you ate up until your sighting? At least from the time you were up.

3) Do you have any photos from when you were 17?

It was Labor Day weekend Beginning of Sept 1982. Not sure of the exact dates.

That friday night before when we left home we went to MickyD's. Later that Friday night when we got to the cabins. We ate something, I cant remember, maybe hot dogs. The next morning I did not eat at all.

There is a photo of me when I was 18 , on my face book page. I had just graduated high School.

I think you need to go back and refresh your memory.

Not that it matters, but I was probably closer then 50 yards as I mentioned in the article. I could see it well. To give you perspective. I could see fingers but not finger nails. Could not see the facial features very well as I mentioned all I could see was dark eyes. The muscles I saw were back muscles and I could see them moving clearly.
 
Kitakaze, my husband has registered. It is still saying he cannot post, so when he can he will participate in this thread.

I really don't have anything to add, but as he was reading through the thread, he told me that I had missed a question about the arms. I apologize for not answering, but I don't understand the pictures. The arms were hanging down but swinging, they weren't just...um...hanging stiffly, they were moving, just as our arms do as we take strides. They just weren't bent upward at the elbows. Sorry I missed that.

Yes, they could verify was the story I told them and how frightened I was.They did not witness anything. My ex-friend would have been able to verify the fight. I do not see what help that would be.

Thanks for some clarification.

You had no breakfast and ate nothing whatsoever from the time you awoke until after you saw the Bigfoot? You must have been very hungry.

You can post the photo here easily by adding it to a photo album available up in your CP options.

What handle did your husband create when he registered? If he can't post, both of you should PM Darat and Lisa Simpson to let them know and that you are a married couple using the same computer.

People typically suck at estimating distance unless they have some practice at it. Even then it can be tricky. John very well could have been closer but misjudged the distance. The recreation mentioned in the Blogsquatcher article would better help establish an estimated distance, but the only way a true distance could be known would be by going back to the actual location.

You're welcome. OK, he's not on the members list which means either he didn't register properly or what I suspect is the case, that his account hasn't been approved as it is coming from the same IP address as you. It should just be a matter of showing admins that you are a married couple using the same computer.

Not on that day, no bugs bothering me. I hate bugs

I have never been one to eat much in the morning. Even now I have to force myself to eat toast when I take my meds.

I don't have a photo album. I use face book. But I can try to figure something out.

I know I suck at it. When Billy and I tried to judge the distance ourselves (we did not physically measure) he said it was less than 50. I was also 10-12 feet high in a tree.
 
If you didn't do a physical measurement then how did Billy know it was less than 50 yards? Did he guestimate too?
 
Lord. See this is why people laugh at us.

Researcher 1 -"They say witnesses are unreliable. We'll show we're serious and we'll take our witness and conduct a test to determine the real distance. That'll show 'em"

Researcher 2 - "Brilliant! Did you bring a measuring tape?"

Researcher 1 -"Uh, no."

Researcher 2 -"We'll guestimate!"
