Breathing Sounds Recorded, Anyone?, does anyone have one Options

[Sunflower]

I've been considering this question for some time now. Since I've searched and can't find any, I'm wondering, does anyone on this forum have a recording of sasquatch breathing sounds? Or point me in the direction of a recording already on the net.

I have a couple of "chuffs" where something walked up close to the microphone and exhaled a very short, loud burst of air. Don't ask me what made the sound though as I wasn't present when it was recorded. If I can find the recordings I'll host them and provide a link.

[Sunflower]

OK. I'd like to listen, and so would one of my brothers. Just post it here whenever you can, no hurry. Thanks a lot.

:new_whistle: You may want to cross reference any huffs/chuffs with bears. I was huckleberry picking in August a few years back on a steep slope with my dog (1/2 Gordon 1/2 Lab 125 lbs) and from just directly above us came a series of huffs/chuffs very close within atleast 50 yards, it scared me to death, I had a death grip on my dogs collar and I scooted down the mountain slope on my butt dragging my dog who weighed as much as I did. I have no clue how that bear got so close to us without hearing it...... :new_lmaosmiley:

Thanks, but none match with what we heard. Interesting sounds though.

This is one of the recordings I was referring to. IMHO there's simply no way to tell what it is with certainty. For all I know a possum stuck his nose up against the microphone.

Bitter Monk,

Thanks, I heard a little huff. I understand...well, the search goes on. I'm trying to find this to send to my brother.

It sounds like a hog... Did you record it in Alabama?

[watch1]

Yes it was recorded in Alabama.

Ok..here is the cut that this was cut from. After you listen to it..then you tell me if you think a hog made it.
I can tell you this..there was no other people out there in the woods where we were at.
I have said that I believe Bigfoot can and does mimic what it has heard and I still believe that.

So..we have a grunt of some type and then talking. It sorta un-nerved me to hear this..but it is on the recording.

[attachment=17640:attachment]

With this one I am open for any ideas that can explain it.

Sounds like a female voice, just my first impression...I still don't know. Were any human females out there?

BM, funny you mention possum.
Sunflower, we used to record on a nightly basis with the recorder in a ziplock baggie to protect it from the weather elements with just the wire mic hanging out, then replay the tape over the next morning to see if we captured any interesting sounds. One morning during playback we got a strange wheazing breathing sound and then something gnawing on the recorder. It sounded FREAKY. We went back to where the recorder was set to check for tracks and it turned out to be a fricking possum, lol.
Why would a possum decide to try and make dinner of the recorder?
The night prior I couldn't find my zip lock and used a bread bag to put the recorder in that still had some bread crumbs inside.
DUH
:laugh:

I wish I had a recorder back then many years ago. The sounds would have been priceless although they may have caused a bad dream or two. I was hoping that someone here may have caught a similar sound. My brother said he remembers other things and will try to put them in writing. Why he never told me the other incidents I don't know? I was busy with other things. A few times I brushed it off as teenage BS and imagination, except he's not the type to exagerate. Plan to call him soon and see what he's got to add. If he makes a visit here I'm hoping we can make a trip back down there and have a look around...we'll see.

There were no other people in the area.

What is said..sounds to me like something a small girl would say to maybe a smaller sister. Telling her to be nice.

This was recorded in a remote area around if not after midnight. I checked around trying to find out if anyone new anyone named (Ver-ron-na).
No one knew anyone of that name.

watch1,

Do you think the quality of this recording is good enough to have analyzed by a scientist? How close to the recorder was the ???? making those sounds? It's not a sound I would expect a sasquatch to make. Very interesting.

[Wardog1078]

Sunflower,

Can you tell us about the sounds you heard? How did you hear them, when did you hear them and who heard them? I am interested to read a description of those sounds from you.

Thanks,

[Sunflower]

Wardog 1078,

I posted under "What's your not sure encounter?" Post #460, on Mar 2, 2006. It happened many years ago but the sounds were unforgetable. There were several of my family members there and so these were not imagined but I never connected these sounds until recently.

I was a 100% skeptic but not now. There's just too much going on and I can't ignore the facts.

I'm really interested in hearing about this. I have heard for myself some strange things that can not be explained. There are many that have heard sounds and "talk" that are just so "out-of-place" that they just stun you for a while. After the stun wears off there is always the big question..just what was that out there and how intelligient are these creatures. What little I know about them I will have to say..they are very smart, fast, and know their surroundings very well. They have a form of communication and mimic just about anything they have heard..including human speech..right down to the sound of the voice.

OK..now you are going to ask how I know this..because I have heard what sounded like me say things I did not say. Owls in the day time..crows at night..dogs barking in a pattern with each bark a different tone. Voices saying things like "let them come", " Him and (name) hunting us", "don't get in the car with them", "went down the creek sir" and "there's a big ole dog in that car" (there was a bull dog in the Blazer). When you hear and record stuff like this..what do you do with it? You can not just dismiss it..I can't.

Mike,

I, for one, would really like to hear those recordings. Can you post them here? What I remember was in a game preserve that had thousands of acres, there were very few animal sounds, no birds, no insect noises, no nothing. One spring morning after a rain shower I went outside to feed the dogs, came back around to the front of the house and looked across the road, thinking where the hell are all the birds? I heard one sound, it was to me the sound of a baby hawk, but I kept straining to hear it, it was on my left as I faced the woods, it was high in the trees, but I'm not a birder so couldn't be sure if I was correct. I listened for about 5 minutes and then it stopped. Then nothing. I lived there for 7 yrs and it was one of the creepiest places ever. Even other people remarked how quiet it was and how come we can't see and hear more wildlife. I don't know, I just accepted it after a while. Occasionally we'd hear coyotes yiping but the sound was coming from behing my house and barn not the preserve.

Two of my brothers came to live with me and just recently the youngest has admitted to some things they saw and heard, but at the time didn't tell me, why? I don't know. Then my sister followed them several months later. She admits now that she hated being alone out there on the farm. Oh well, if I knew then what I know now, I might have been a little more adventurous or not...just can't say. ?????

i've heard breathing sounds near my camp in the middle of the night in Emigrant national wilderness but i lost the recorder, but it was like a deep grunt noise then huffing and puffing like it was running b4 the fact. i'll tery to find the recorder i used...

[Sunflower]

bengerman09,

Yes, please do post them if you locate the recorder. I'd be very interested to listen .

I filtered out a lot of noise with my programs but I still couldn't really make out what was said, apart from the guy who says "yeah". The lady appears to be saying something about "words" or "birds". The whole sentence is something like "Two nice kinda birds" but that's probably not it.

Her voice has a fundamental of 260Hz during the word "kinda" (just using that as a place indicator, not that she's actually saying that). The harmonics fit with this fundamental as well so there's nothing anomalous there. The voice is really on the recording, it isn't something you are pulling out of the noise and letting your brain get creative with it -- like EVPs generally are.

The first sound, after filtering, sounds like a bucket being set down to me, but there are problems with this interpretation. In support of it is a smaller sound that happens just afterward, which sounds to me like something was set upon a table or jostled on a table. It fits with the idea of someone coming along, setting down a bucket and then something else on a table.

My first hypothesis would be that a couple had walked by your set-up while night fishing, or I don't know what they were doing, but they were simply people.

One slight problems with that interpretation is that the "bucket drop" has a fundamental and harmonics like a voice or animal call would. Unless I experiment with buckets dropping I won't know whether a bucket can have a tone when you drop it, but I can't see a reason that it wouldn't, and I can imagine that it would, like any other musical instrument would. A bucket ought to provide at least a fundamental tone, one would think, and perhaps some harmonics.

Alternatively, the "bucket drop" could be an animal noise -- even after filtering it's still hard to make out. It could be a dogs "wuf" for instance.

These are the things that I think when I hear the recording anyway. I can't see any reason to think it's a bigfoot. The voices are actually physically there, so I don't think this is your common EVP type of thing. If you are right that bigfoot will go around repeating things it has heard, like a living breathing tape recorder, then I suppose that could explain it, but there's nothing I could find in the file that makes me think it's not two people and a bucket (or a dog). But the fidelity is such that I can't hear it well enough to be sure.

At any rate, if I had left a recorder out where I didn't think anyone else was and I heard that, I'd have been spooked too!

Last weekend I was camping and call blasting in a remote part of the Northern Sierras. We (my wife and I) set up camp and call blasted in the evening beginning at 10:00 p.m. through midnight. On our second call at 11:00 p.m. both my wife and I heard something respond to our call, seemingly trying to imitate what we were playing.

It was distant and we could only hear it through an amplified parabolic mic. But, it did it several times. My wife had the headset on first, heard it, and then gave the headset to me. I heard it two more times before it stopped. I didn't get a recording of this.

We were both very tired from a full day of travelling and fishing so we got in the tent and went to sleep at 12:30 a.m. Before going to bed, though, I set two digital voice recorders up...one right in the camp and another about 30 yards away from the camp in the direction we heard the calls come from. I have a recording of something big actually coming up and moving the recorder that was placed 30 yards from the camp. I also snorted, sniffed or breathed heavily on the recorder.

The recorder was definetly moved when this occured. What I'm not sure of is if it was handled first and then sniffed, or if the sniffing began immediately while the recorder moved, as if an animal's snout was doing the moving. A few opinions on that would be nice.

I'd post the recording, but I'm not sure how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know anything about getting those recordings on here but I think there are puter experts here on the forum and can probably help. If the "something" handled it, there might possibly be some prints on the recorder, of course other than your own, just a thought. Sounds like something was interested...how high off the ground did you place the recorders?

I'm sure someone here could help with downloading those recordings.

Thanks for the information, very interested and would like to hear them.

Oops...I meant "It" rather than "I." Changes the whole meaning there, doesn't it?

Thanks, Sunflower. I doubt there's any kind of prints on it now. I came home and put some tuna on it, and then put it near my dog to see if I could duplicate the sound.

Sea Bass,

I'm posting a link to a word document that will show you the easiest way to record your audio to your computer using your computer microphone.

Link to Word Document

This page shows you how to capture audio with Microsoft Windows Sound Recorder. Before beginning this tutorial, make sure your computer has the following components:
• A microphone.
• Speakers.
• A Soundcard.
• Microsoft Windows/Sound Recorder (Sound Recorder is an audio capture program provided with Microsoft Windows).
With these components, you should be able to record sound to your computer.

Hope this helps ya. Let me know when you get it recorded to your computer and we'll figure out how to get it here in this thread afterwards.

[Sea Bass]

Thanks, Ice. I've already managed to make into a .wav file on the computer. And, I didn't notice the file attachment option the last time I posted. So, here it is

From listening to the audio, it sounds to me like whatever made the sounds had a snout....bear, coyote, etc. You can tell by the sound the tougue makes moving in and out of it's mouth right at the end of the recording.

Can you hear it?

I'm leaning that way, too. But, the next morning I was unable to find any tracks around the recorder. There was enough open dirt there mixed in with the rocks that I should have had something. And, it's very strange how it B-lined straight to my recorder. Next time a game camera will go with it.

[Sunflower]

ICE

I listened several times and it does sound like something with a mouth, it reminds me of my St Bernard. Other than that I can't tell, could be a bear, coyote or ?. How high off the ground was the recorder?

Thanks for posting those sounds.

The recorder was on the ground right next to a tree. And, for what it's worth, the sounds are a lot deeper than what my dog did in the "tuna test." She's a large mutt with some St Bernard. I was really leaning toward bear, since I've seen three so far this year in the area and lots of tracks. The bears in this particular area tend to be very shy and reclusive as opposed to the "garbage bears" found a little further south. No tracks, though. And, I also had some food out that was untouched.
