Yellowstone guide here. I’ve had a lot of crazy encounters with all sorts of wildlife. Best thing for an unwanted encounter of any animal is to hike in groups, or never be alone. Carry bear spray and never run from a bear (unless you’re as fast as fooster). Don’t leave food in your tent if you’re camping, etc etc. If you ever hike or camp in bear country there’s no need to be afraid 99% of the time if you are being smart about it.

the looping is something that happens all the time in the woods, like getting lost and doubling back over a path you think you haven't gone down but actually have.

just stand up to a black bear and make noise, they run nearly every time. Brown bears can match horses on sprints so unless you are confident you can win a 100 meter dash vs a horse just lay down on your stomach and just don't let it roll you over. You will be bruised and bloodied but you have an okay chance of surviving. A polar bear will have been hunting you for miles before you see it. Your best bet would be to shed a piece of clothing and run towards shelter, you might get a bit farther without it as the scent may slow it down for a minute but you really only have a few minutes once you spot it in the distance at most to find a secure location or get easier prey between you and it.

No, Grizzlies kill over half of the time. Also bears aren't as fast as horses, I know people who have outrun a semi famous Grizzly bear on a horse

[@slimothyjames4577]

@@Cole-Baker The average top speed of a horse is 30mph, which is going to somewhat vary by breed. Thoroughbreds can reach about 40mph, for instance. Grizzlies can sprint 30-45mph. I'd recon the main reason a horseback rider could outrun a healthy grizzly would be endurance, which horses specialize in. Most predators won't keep chase if the chances of catching their prey are too low, the energy output is greater than caloric intake, etc. And grizzly bears are known to bluff charge, so it's possible it could've been chasing them away from a specific spot but had no interest in catching them.

[@Cole-Baker]

@slimothyjames4577 I work cows on horseback. I've ridden quite a few breeds but you are just wrong. I don't know where you are getting your information. Quarter horses can get way faster than you mentioned. And no the bear wasn't bluff charging, like I said he was kinda famous in the early 2000s. Killed a ton of cattle around the yellowstone area and attacked people's dogs and did attack humans a couple different times.

Nice to see someone making an interesting and unnerving game around the Missing 411s. I'm very surprised they went with a "Twin Peaks" style pilot episode though considering a situation with a Dogman, Bigfoot or other Cryptids would have normally been the start of something like this. Yellowstone and Yosemite have the most encounters with various cryptids, and not just two well known ones. The excellent YT channel, What Lurks Beneath, does a superb job on covering these accounts. Highly recommended. Yes, more of this game is a definite must.

As someone who volunteered for Search and Rescue for years, I feel that it's worth pointing out that it's more like tens of thousands of Missing persons reports are filed for National and State Parks. The detail that's being conveniently glossed over here is that the overwhelming majority of these people are found. Most are found within hours of the reports being filed, some within a few days, and others are even found and rescued while the report is being filed. The unfound hikers are the one's that make the news. What's more interesting are the statistics on the "Unknown Missing", people who have no family or their families didn't know where they had gone off to, just up and vanishing in the parks. Parks have derelict/abandoned vehicles towed and impounded when there's no sign of foul play. Months or even years can go by before a family or friend's MPR might cause local authorities to check and see if a vehicle that's been impounded belongs to someone on the MP database. Assuming the vehicle hasn't been scrapped or sold at auction. And by then there may be very little in the way of clues to tell what happened to them.

[@margaret6839]

Yeah, it's fun to creep yourself out with stuff like this, but my brother spent 15 years doing Search and Rescue in the White Mountains (not even an especially treacherous range), and people find ways to get themselves injured or killed on the daily. Mostly hypothermia, people just don't plan for rain and then they're screwed. I have no trouble believing people are dying out there all the time without any supernatural involvement.

The rule for bears is to stand your ground and tell the bear to "go on, 'git!" because you'd never outrun a bear, not only are they faster than you over short distances but they can smell you from 20 miles away. Unless it's a cocaine bear, then the best advice I can give is, to quote the hitchhikers guide: "..consider how good your life has been up to that point. Alternatively, if life hasn't been good to you, which seems more likely given the circumstances, consider how lucky you are that it won't be troubling you for much longer."

Life lessons from the great American outdoors. Majority of bears can run around 30mph (48kph) and faster; Grizzly bears for example can run up to 45mph (72kph). You're not getting away. Climb, they climb. Swim, they swim. Try to hide behind something, they're going through it. However; to make games like this scarier. In America, if you're out in the woods and you hear what sounds as if a little girl is being brutally murdered, 50/50 it's more than likely a fox. Other 50% you're gonna wanna get men with guns out in them pines. If you hear what sounds like an adult woman screaming bloody murder, 50/50 it's a Cougar and it's not going to try to get you drunk.

[@jackucthatjack5896]

I do a lot of hiking alone. - one time I was out of town visiting some family in an unfamiliar area to me. On my way I passed what looked like a nature trail. So I had a decent amount of time b4 I needed to be where I was meeting everyone so I turned around and went to the trail. The wooden sign at the road was badly run down looking but I could tell it was a state trail of some sort. So I drove into the forest down an overgrown trail and came to what looked like an old parking area. It was very badly overgrown but u could still tell where to park and where the walking trail started. I had kind of a bad feeling about it because it was a very unfamiliar area to me, heavily forested, and I was the only vehicle there. But I thought oh well, I check out trails all the time. So I got out of my truck and started walking the trail. About 5 minutes into the forest I realized something unusual. There was no sound. No birds chirping, no squirrels running around, nothing at all. I stopped and stood very still and listened for a bit and literally couldn't hear anything whatsoever. And kinda getting a weird feeling about it I thought about turning back. But decided to continue on the trail because I didn't want to feel like I was being a scared little baby. So I kept walking. As I walked I started to get that feeling like I was being watched. Even as I'm typing this right now the hair on my arms is standing up and I have goosebumps thinking about it. I just had that strong feeling that something was not right. As I kept walking I could see up ahead the trail split into 2. And at that moment I could see something on the ground that didn't look right. ... As I got to it I didn't understand what I was looking at but what I saw was disturbing. Where the trail split into 2 it created a V shape. And in that V shape were bones. All kinds of bones. And they were neatly made into a very weird and interesting design. I honestly don't know how to describe it but it felt very evil. I didn't understand it but i knew I had to get out of the woods. I snapped a picture of it and went to turn around and when I did i caught something out of the corner of my eye. Deeper into the woods just past where the trail splits I could see a hooded figure peering from behind a tree. I froze for a few seconds staring at it. I wasn't sure if it was a shadow or lighting trick but I was freaked out so I ran back towards my truck as fast as I could. As I was running I started hearing weird noises behind me in the woods. And for some reason all I could think about was that any second I was going to be shot with an arrow or something. But anyway I got back to my truck and drove out of there like a madman and went to the get together . Later on at the get together I was telling one of my relatives who lives somewhat near that area about what happened and showed him the picture and his jaw dropped and he was like. Wow...that's a really dangerous area. Nobody goes out near those woods. There have been a lot of missing people over the years in that area and there have been reports of witchcraft and witches out that way. So anyway, that's the story. Happened about 5 years ago.

@@LHyoutube But the fact that the children seem to have been fed and that some are completely clean, even children found dead looking like they've only been deceased for a day when they've been gone for weeks and should've starved to death but aren't even malnourished, that they are found in places that would've been impossible for a toddler to get to and even being hard for experienced rangers with equipment to reach. That's what's weird to me.

[@LHyoutube]

​@@miamyos - Well look, I'm certainly no expert on these things. But I'd estimate that a great deal of those stories are either outright urban legends, or are exaggerated or misconstrued versions of real events. While I'm sure there are a handful of events that are legitimately like that, it's always useful to remember that the simplest explanations are usually the most likely to be true. So a child managing to find food in an inhospitable environment, or managing to get to a normally inaccessible area, is almost always more likely than some kind of paranormal or alien involvement. There are still enough mysteries and surprises around human abilities to explain seemingly unexplained phenomena.

[@miamyos]

@@LHyoutube I usually try to logic my way through a lot of stories about disappearances but some are still just too unreal and no logic can explain them. Of course some may have been spiced up or are urban legends but a lot are also real documented cases. I choose to enjoy the mystery of it and live on the hope that there are still supernatural things around- it makes life a little more fun!

[@LHyoutube]

@@miamyos - Yeah sure, there is no harm in deriving hope or enjoyment from things like the paranormal (or indeed things like religion). It's only when it starts to get in the way of logical thought that it can become problematic. Not that I'm suggesting you are at that point by any means.

[@michaelgladden1018]

You might not see this, but you’re the best, KZbinr thanks for always having good videos. God bless you.

[@artyom_zdanek]

Nice! This looks really good, the future installments will most likely be as great as this is. 👍

[@ardianblakaj]

Nightfall makes most of the things scarier and harder I've had a scenario myself when i was going somewhere late night and did a full loop even tho i knew the road good enough still ended up on the starting point

[@thewildpickle5618]

Today is a good day! Keep up the good work, been here since day 1 and loving every min! Hope you've recovered from COVID!

Rules for bears are: If it’s brown lie down Black fight back White say good night fun fact there was a man who fought a grizzly to the death they found their bodies still locked in that fight dale peterson was his name though guy to fight one with just hands and teeth

[@Mil-Spec_Mike]

I live in an area of the US where bears are common. One very chilling thing to know about bears... They eat you alive. They prefer you alive as they can feast, leave and come back to finish the meal. Leaving you partly alive means the meat will last longer prolonging spoilage. Have a nice day.

[@fredhampton3393]

More please!!! 😊 🎉

[@CountryBuff08]

I just listened to a podcast where they talked about a guy who went cross country skiing around Lake Michigan. He went missing with no explanation and was presumed dead. He turned up 15 months later, about 40 miles away from his family's home. He had no memory of those months. Last he remembered was being in the snow and feeling lost. Eerie stuff.

[@rogerrabbit132]

Missing 411 the Hunted is definitely a series to check out. It talks about hikers and hunters going missing in the woods. Some of the stories were pretty unnerving.

[@ryanthecollectorkid]

I really liked the concept of this first part and I agree I would love to see more gameplay as we go through other peoples stories from the forest 🌲🌲🌲🌲

[@RockenTravis]

Missing 411 is definitely something to check out. I want to get the books. There is a couple movies/documentary about a few of them

[@Juniper_Da_Cheetah]

fooster i love your videos and i have an idea for another one if you haven't been told already, the game is bodycam styled and called zoochosis, idk how people normally recommend you games but there you go. awesome videos, can't say it enough!

[@Monster-bx1mq]

I’m having some serious heartache lately so thanks for helping with your cheerful mood 🙃

[@markstover5330]

I live in a national forest and black bears are treated as pests for the most part. They get in your trash and break into cars. You just yell at them and they typically run off. One time a bear got into my trash around midnight and I chased it off. As I was cleaning up the mess, I got the feeling something was watching me and pulled out my flash light. It was standing about 20 feet from me just watching. I yelled at it again and it left but that time really unnerved me that something so big was also so quiet that it snuck back in the dead silence of night without me realizing it was there. No street lights either so it was pitch black.

[@Spec1al-D]

this looks very cool! thanks for the vid, Fooster!

[@D309-t2l]

It's "Do You Copy" in the ranger tower again.

[@kriger619]

"Bad things happen to me in a ranger tower" Fooster remembers the Goat Man.

[@Dani-nl2id]

I have a weird story from my childhood about a gas station like that. Was in the middle of nowhere, literally no sign of civilization for miles each way. Run by a couple who seemed like they were homeless. My parents say it was like we entered a different time. And perhaps the strangest things: when we got ice cream, there was mold on them. They were 2 YEARS past the best before date. Very strange place, though I have no memory of it, only heard it from parents.

[@1995tyler1]

Missing 411 are cases of disappearances with no explanations. If you’re interested in hearing some of these stories, I’d HIGHLY recommend Mr. Ballen’s videos as he does an amazing job telling these stories.

[@jonnybildgerat7778]

Brown bears or grizzly bears have been clocked at just about 60 miles an hour the fastest man clocked at just over 27 miles an hour you can not out run a bear the've also been known to climb trees so the actual rule for bears should be face the bear and slowly back away do not turn and run that triggers a prey response this applies to grizzly not black bear who a generally more shy and are more likely to run, but again every animal is differnt and may not respond as you would think.

[@Zeno56657]

Black bears are the ones that can climb trees I’ve never heard of a grizzly bear climbing a tree?

[@jonnybildgerat7778]

according to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. A common misconception is that grizzly bears, unlike black bears, cannot climb trees. While its long claws make climbing more difficult for a grizzly than for a black bear, a grizzly can get to you in a tree - it will more likely, however, be able to reach you before you reach the tree.@@Zeno56657

[@RealNickTheCoolest]

That tower scene reminded me of fire watch. Loved that game.

[@megat0on]

That was super unnerving...LOVED IT!!

[@tofushaan]

Dang, I remember watching this game on another cc, and it's so interesting. Glad you played this one too!

[@scribblingjoe]

The store clerk’s got dope rhymes.😂😂😂😂😂

[@Namelesnoodle]

I love Fosters voice

[@rid5258]

Perfect time to watch a horror game.

[@JLAvey]

Rules concerning bears: go out of your way to avoid each other. If you have a coach gun, make sure both barrels are loaded with slugs.

[@Battle-tested413]

Oh yeah! Me and my smooth brain are excited to watch this!!

[@moonshineandwater]

This is the first video of you I've watched. I just gotta say it, you have an incredibly pleasant voice :)

[@KatalystKV]

I love, when you play games where you are terrified of just being near those... Gas Station!

[@KatalystKV]

There's more I like you to see, you love it if you like Static or retro style, starting from 1. VHS Store, it names all things. 2. Missing Hiker, is a short indie horror game, I want to tell you about it, but if you play it you will know how amazing it is. 3. The Shopping List, I have to say beware of... Milk! Just saying, those games are amazing and their own unique atmosphere.

[@Piecesoftheshadow]

This was interesting. Real life is definitely always scarier and creepier than fiction.

[@Rizzbulla]

Another certified banger

[@oniarrca9431]

Fooster.....bears can chase down horses. Soooo, only go hiking with someone slower than yourself to out run the bear. 🤣

[@khoonkitlim5963]

Hope the next episode comes out soon, Fooster!

[@Dead_Again1313]

I grew up in the country with woods and fields. I used to explore the woods alone often when I was a teenager. During one time out and a mile or so deep, I was walking and it got very quiet. No birds or insects really all of a sudden. I got a really bad feeling and goosebumps and the hair on my arms stood up so I turned around and started walking back home. Along my path about 5 minutes after turning around was a severed deers head on the ground that wasnt there 10 minutes earlier, which I'm certain of. I saw it on the ground from a distance as it was right in my path and I thought it was a paper bag or piece of wood until I got close. Even if it was just a piece of wood or paper bag, Id have been nervous because I already recognized it as something that wasnt there a moment sooner. I have no idea what it was that left it or if it/they were following or watching me but I had my head on a major swivel after that. Hopefully it was just a panther or something but I dont know why it would have been carrying just a deers head around. This really happened and I'll never forget that.

[@spicydeath82]

with bears it depends on which one you encounter. black bears make yourself big and loud so they want nothing to do with you. brown bears, if they come at you, play dead. polar bears, well you're probably dead. mountain lions don't run, make yourself large and make a lot of noise. also don't turn your back on them till they take off. wolves shouldn't bother you unless you're near their den or pups.

[@eaglpaul1]

I would definitely love to see more of this game, keep it coming please.

[@Mr-Blue-42]

A bear can keep pace with a horse, good luck running from that XD

[@thelmamontgomery5040]

OK, that was weird 😮 can't wait for more thanks Fooster 😊

[@Chronothreads]

Great start to Sunday with coffee, cinnamon rolls, and a Fooster vid. Hope you had a nice weekend.

[@scootytamra]

yeah play more of this, it's freaky and i want to see what happens? They tell you to make loud noises while in bear country, but if is too late to back away, they tell you to play dead if it's a black bear.

[@kdaddy9229]

Has the next episode of this come out? Or have you not played it? It looks awesome and I’m keen to see more

[@akapril907]

In most cases, stop and cover works with bears. You have next to zero chance of surviving if you run. If you can't outrun a horse, you can't outrun a bear.

[@XxGlopez22xX]

Don’t try to outrun a bear bro, you can be Usain Bolt and still get clapped lol

[@frontwing67]

Guy behind the counter of the gasstation was the typical "I make demonical boar sounds in the woods" kinda guy 😅

[@BunkySpewer]

Has anyone not want to see more of anything you play? People always want to see more. It seems anytime there is a ranger watch tower it seems similar to that Firewatch game.

[@blakearcher710]

I work at a gas station in a small town and night shifts we’re always creepy. Last creepy thing that happened to me there was a clown just strolling by the gas station with a creepy ass smile on its face.

[@Stalker_mechenov]

That watchtower instantly reminded me of that game where someone, or rather something was impersonating a real person, and we were trying to guide that person to safety while avoiding that creepy entity I think it also had like 3 endings, really nice game Upd looked up the title, it's called "Do you copy"

[@DOOM.SLAYER.ETERNAL]

Its called "do you copy" and i agree it was a great vid

[@sterlingthibodeaux3690]

Oh.. Fooster.. I would like to see more of this IF you can promise me one thing... Promise me to try not to curb jump the entry to the gas station or anywhere for that matter... LOL!! I love all your content you upload for our entertainment and your jump scares.. LMAO!!.. Hope you're still doing well.. Bless you and all your family, brother.. CHEERS!!!
