00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:12.679
Just to preface this, I picked
this story because after I read it,
2
00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:16.920
I could I just couldn't stop thinking
about it, and it had, like
3
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:20.920
it just an effect on how how
I was feeling throughout the whole day.
4
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:23.879
This is a search and rescue gay, right, this is a Yeah,
5
00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:28.640
it's not one of his stories,
and he was says as a as just
6
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:33.799
a weird story, but yeah,
as soon as I read it, I
7
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:39.479
was like this, something about this
is just I could feel like a chill
8
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:45.119
down my spine just thinking about it
as a reality. This is one of
9
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:49.399
the weirder stories that I have now. I don't know if this is true
10
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:53.000
in every search and rescue unit,
but in mind, it's sort of an
11
00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:58.479
unspoken regular thing we run into.
You can try asking about it and other
12
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:02.920
with to other surgeon officers, but
even if they know what you're talking about,
13
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:07.719
they probably won't say anything about it. We've been told not to talk
14
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:11.239
about it by our superiors, and
at this point we've all gotten so used
15
00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:18.599
to it it doesn't even seem weird
anymore. Just about every case where we
16
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:23.200
were really far into wilderness, I'm
talking like thirty or forty miles, at
17
00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:30.519
some point we'll find a staircase in
the middle of the woods. It's almost
18
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.040
like you took the stairs in your
house and cut them out and put them
19
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:38.719
in the forest. No foundation,
no walls, no doors, and no
20
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:46.640
remnants of a house other than the
staircase. I asked about it the first
21
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:49.239
time I saw some, and the
other officer just told me, don't worry
22
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:57.239
about it. It's normal. Everyone
I asked said the same thing. I
23
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.599
wanted to go check one out.
I said, let's go. Let's let's
24
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:02.159
go check it out. Let's go
walk it, walk up the stairs,
25
00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:10.520
let's see if they're still usable.
And I was told very emphatically to never
26
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:17.879
go near any of them. At
this point, I just sort of ignore
27
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:22.479
them. Whenever we go out and
we see them, and it happens frequently,
28
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:32.240
I don't even talk about it anymore. The fucker so not to make
29
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:37.000
First of all, yeah, thank
you for those joining us live. We
30
00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:42.719
got somebody saying hi on YouTube.
We've got somebody saying best podcast. Hey,
31
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:45.919
it will take it. Yeah.
Thanks everybody on Twitter commenting, and
32
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:49.919
then those who have filing in on
TikTok, appreciate it. We're sharing your
33
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.400
scary stories, lives. What's happen
in and where's a lot There's a lot
34
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.159
of to unpack with this story that
Jack just shared. So this is kind
35
00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.000
of like one of your favorite movies, Jack, Black Dog, Seeing the
36
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.879
Black Dog, Ain't you? So? Like these truck drivers as they're driving
37
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:07.840
throughout the night, there's a common
thing where they see a black dog run
38
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:13.039
across the road now and then,
and that maybe they obviously associated with lack
39
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:16.719
of sleep hallucinating, But this is
kind of like a search and rescue thing
40
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:23.280
where they're seeing these staircase in the
woods. Yeah, and as they put
41
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:27.560
it, it's guaranteed you're going to
see one. After you go so far
42
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:31.520
into the woods, thirty forty miles, you will come across staircase on the
43
00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:38.199
way of trying to find someone.
This is this is every time. This
44
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:40.400
is the craziest thing I have ever
heard in my life. It's terrifying.
45
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:45.719
Yeah, and near to not go
to the not to not to go near
46
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:50.280
them. That's his office, superior
officers that don't talk about him and don't
47
00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:57.479
got And I think the main thing
that got me was just why why do
48
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:02.560
they know that? Why do they
always find one? It's just it's super
49
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:10.159
weird. Yeah, it kind of
is like the black dog theory though.
50
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:14.120
Yeah, the way out there in
the woods at night, is it kind
51
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:15.879
of like seeing water when you're in
the desert. I mean like is that
52
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:20.600
like well the stories say that,
well, he's as he mentioned, it's
53
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.120
not always at night when they see
it. It's oh, plain day,
54
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:29.319
it's just kind of just there.
Is it very on what it looks like
55
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:32.439
like you're just walking and like it
it's like leaves grown. I'm just curious,
56
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:36.279
like I'm trying to visualize this myself, Well, is it overgrown?
57
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:41.240
Well? People did ask him in
the comments, what do they look like?
58
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.959
He said they do vary. Sometimes
it looks like they've dilapidated a little
59
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.959
bit, but he says most of
the time it looks like they're well maintained
60
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:54.360
and clear of like any debris.
He said, it looks like a brand
61
00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:57.959
new staircase that just just like literally
just came out of someone's house and it
62
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:03.160
was just placed there. So he
himself sees different staircases in the woods.
63
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:15.480
Yeah. Yeah, like the common
I don't want to say myth or folcalore,
64
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:19.600
but what's the common thought if you
approach the stairway staircase. Well,
65
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:23.399
you know what, several people actually
did ask him, like why do they
66
00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:26.360
say, don't approach it or why
don't you he just said I don't want
67
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:28.720
to talk about it, or he's
kind of like played it off and just
68
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:36.199
moved on to a different story,
you know, how to follow that up?
69
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:40.560
I couldn't. I couldn't. Good
luck, Luke, I was gonna
70
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:43.079
say, I couldn't process it.
I was like, what is you know,
71
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:45.680
he didn't listen as a scary story, so it was weird, and
72
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:49.120
I'm like, well, why am
I terrified? Why is he not terrified?
73
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:58.000
Evidently fear is not a factor for
you. That's true, because it
74
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:00.959
would terrify me. It's very fear. That's great. I would poop my
75
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:09.120
pants first, not be a factor
if that's not scary to maybe he becomes
76
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:10.959
used to it, though, you
know, I don't know. I guess
77
00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:14.759
the first one. I would probably
be like, oh, that's weird.
78
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:18.279
Someone's house must have been knocked down
here if I see like yeah, but
79
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:23.319
like if people that your coworkers are
saying like you're gonna see this, don't
80
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:29.000
go near it. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. And you're not
81
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.759
allowed to talk your superiors tell you
not to talk about it. Like it's
82
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:35.600
kind of like the UFO things,
like when you hear the a lot of
83
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:42.439
these Air Force bases and naval stories
where they're like the superiors like they have
84
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:46.000
this radar proof of this happening,
the spirits, or like you can't,
85
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:58.399
don't talk about it, don't share
it. It's just so strange, Yeah,
1
00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:12.679
Just to preface this, I picked
this story because after I read it,
2
00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:16.920

it's not one of his stories,

49
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:10.159
weird. Yeah, it kind of
is like the black dog theory though.
50
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:14.120
Yeah, the way out there in
the woods at night, is it kind
51
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:15.879
of like seeing water when you're in

He said they do vary. Sometimes
it looks like they've dilapidated a little

00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:15.480
Yeah. Yeah, like the common
I don't want to say myth or folcalore,
64
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:19.600
but what's the common thought if you
approach the stairway staircase. Well,
65
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:23.399
you know what, several people actually
did ask him, like why do they
66
00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:26.360
say, don't approach it or why
don't you he just said I don't want
67
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:28.720
to talk about it, or he's
kind of like played it off and just
68
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:36.199
moved on to a different story,
you know, how to follow that up?
69
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:40.560
I couldn't. I couldn't. Good
luck, Luke, I was gonna
70
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:43.079
say, I couldn't process it.
I was like, what is you know,
71
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:45.680
he didn't listen as a scary story, so it was weird, and
72
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:49.120
I'm like, well, why am
I terrified? Why is he not terrified?
73
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:58.000
Evidently fear is not a factor for
you. That's true, because it
74
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:00.959
would terrify me. It's very fear. That's great. I would poop my
75
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:09.120
pants first, not be a factor
if that's not scary to maybe he becomes
76
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:10.959
used to it, though, you
know, I don't know. I guess
77
00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:14.759
the first one. I would probably
be like, oh, that's weird.
78
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:18.279
Someone's house must have been knocked down
here if I see like yeah, but
79
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:23.319
like if people that your coworkers are
saying like you're gonna see this, don't
80
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:29.000
go near it. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. And you're not
81
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.759
allowed to talk your superiors tell you
not to talk about it. Like it's
82
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:35.600
kind of like the UFO things,
like when you hear the a lot of
83
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:42.439
these Air Force bases and naval stories
where they're like the superiors like they have
84
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:46.000
this radar proof of this happening,
the spirits, or like you can't,
85
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:58.399
don't talk about it, don't share
it. It's just so strange, Yeah,
