The Sasquatch didn't like it when explorers in the Sam Houston National Forest drew too near him last week, and in his fury he hurled giant logs at the curious humans.

The expedition didn't photograph the monsters—it seems the Sasquatch is bashful before cameras, as it has never appeared in photo before-- but that doesn't mean the researchers didn't get close to their mysterious subjects.
"My heart was just pounding in my throat," said Germer on his Sunday podcast as he recounted his chilling brush with the unknown giant.
