Tell us about your jump.
121:45
My jump, uh, I, you know, there's...
121:47
I guess it's an almost a metaphor for me because, uh, I grew up with Evel Knievel and I did the same thing that all the other kids did, you know, with the, with the ramp and your bicycle and, you know-
121:58
know-created yourself to be Evel Knievel like you described.
122:02
The, uh, but, you know, recently it's almost a jump now to, um, for our, m- my, uh, my family and, uh, um, s- other folks that have joined in with us to, uh, build this attraction here in, in Las Vegas.
122:16
So we've kinda used it, like I said, a metaphor where we've, uh, we've launched off the ramp and we're in the air, and we're hoping for a good landing.

32 MINS LATER

153:59
You know, that because, uh, you know, Evel, he was the first, and he was the greatest ever.
16:38
Did you ever meet Evel or Robbie?
16:42
I never met Evel, but I did see him jump when I was... a four year old in person in Kansas.
16:49
Yeah.
16:49
My, my parents took me to a jump at the Hutchinson state fair or Hutchinson fairgrounds, um, the Kansas state fair.
16:55
And you remember that? Oh yeah.
16:57
I totally remember it.
16:58
I, my cousin was with me and he's several years older and he said, describe to me, you know, where we were sitting and everything that day.

8 MINS LATER

24:34
Do you remember or can you share with us what was his last hurrah? And did he know that was his last jump?
8:19
Can you tell the story of how you got involved with this Evel Knievel collection? Because I love the fact that it involves the killer.
8:29
It does involve the killer.
8:32
So I'm a third generation Harley Davidson dealership owner.
8:39
My family had historic Harley Davidson in Kansas for 75 years.
8:44
So one of the things that we did to kind of embrace our heritage and history was we did restorations on all years of bikes and became very good at it.
8:56
And really, you know, I think I can say that we were like the premier, uh, Harley-Davidson dealership doing restorations in the country.
9:05
So we were getting jobs from people everywhere, actually all over the world.

23 MINS LATER

32:24
that.
40:39
Est-ce que tu penses pas qu'une fille de neuf ans va connaître du Alice Cooper ?
40:45
Mots pis tout.
40:46
Comme moi, je pensais, moi, je pensais comme : « Oh, elle veut l'ajouter parce qu'elle sait que c'est comme un des préférés à papa, parce que ça crie.
40:53
» [rire] Il aime les choses qui crient.
40:56
Pis euh, mais non, chaque mot, pis comme même les obscurs, comme t'sais, and we can't even think of a word that rhymes ou quelque chose comme ça.
41:04
Elle connaît tout.
41:05
Ta ta ta ta ta.

Même
21:16
So, uh, as far as being an ancient race, um, what made you come to that conclusion, Mike?
21:24
Um, over the past decade, I've developed written communication with them.
21:29
So it started with a, just a whiteboard out in the woods where I did some drawing in.
21:35
When I picked it up, it had some drawing on it and connecting lines and stuff.
21:40
And, and that, uh, changed, uh, or ended up being in a, a small notepad with a crayon out front of the cottage on the railing.
21:49
And then that's developed now over time to indoors on the table, a chalkboard and a sketch pad, and, and I'm asking questions out loud.
21:58
And, and I don't get them all answered, but, um, I do get questions answered.

14 MINS LATER

36:18
But obviously it was some sort of interdimensional cloaked Sasquatch So, like Mike, whenever you see them, uh, like when, if you, they're moving around camp, sometimes do you even think they're in physical form always?
15:47
I mean, even like N.W.A. on a different spectrum was just more like, I don't know, like pro-black,
15:56
right? Like, am I tripping about that? Nah, it was some messages to black folks in there that was telling them that, yo, it's a program being ran on you.
16:06
Wake up.
16:07
I mean, be proud.
16:09
and be better, you know what I'm saying? And they wiped that out with gangster rap.
16:16
And that's the music that brainwashed me from about the age about nine until about 17.
16:25
That's the music that brainwashed me.

25 MINS LATER

41:21
Every listen, every rating, every share helps keep the roots growing.

28:38
Yeah
28:38
...
28:38
California famous footage, the Patterson-Gimlin footage, right? There's a lot of controversy surrounding that right now, but, um...
28:44
So I started looking into it, and then I, I met up with this, this gentleman back in October 2008, and four and a half hours later, I h- had a close vocalization that flipped my world upside down.
28:58
We were looking for, for them at the point, at that point, right? And when you hear...
29:03
It was like a triple whoop vocalization that filled the forest.
29:08
It was so loud.

Ian McLennan
Ian McLennanCORRESPONDENT
34:45
Why did you write the book Invisible Giant? Are you trying to reach the doubters or are you just sharing your story?
37:17
What's your experience been with that, Mike, as far as any negative experiences with them?
37:26
No, I've never, the only thing that ever happened to me that and it wasn't really negative I think it was just kind of fun didn't really understand what he was doing with his strength there was uh one time I was in my tent this I think was back in 2013 the mosquitoes were really bad and I was using a manual pump to blow up an air mattress inside my tent and I was standing up as best as I could so my my head's at the top of my my tent there you know bobbing up and down as I'm pumping this thing and and I was running a video camera nearby but it wasn't pointing towards the tent it was just pointing at the woods sitting on a stump or pretty sure that's what it was sitting on and see but you can hear the sound of me pumping this up and and then you hear this branch break um i think it was about three, four inches in diameter, a couple feet long.
38:21
And you hear crack, like really good, loud crack.
38:26
And then the time it took to whack me on the head between breaking was... basically instant so it wasn't like a branch broke and dropped from the tree and just happened to land and hit me on the head the timing was too uh it was too fast it was like crack whack you know so I got whacked on the head once and and I uh it hurt man but I told you know I let them know that and they've never done it since um you know I sometimes I wear glasses and that and I've had marbles hit them, you know, hit off my glasses, but there's never intent, right? To harm me.
39:05
So it's always been, uh, and in multiple locations too, over the 14 years I've been, uh, you know, up in the Algonquin area, um, the original area where I had my vocalizations, I spent about four years there, had numerous, uh, incidents there.
39:21
Um, there's been a few different locations.
39:24
So I've never had any malice, nothing like that.
43:38
So like Mike, whenever you see them, like when if they're moving around camp, sometimes do you even think they're in physical form always?
1:56
I
1:57
think trust is about demonstrating that you understand your customer, the patients and the physicians.
2:03
So as you said, you have oncologists that you're working with that are not deep into nuclear medicine.
2:08
But even within nuclear medicine, you have nuclear medicine physicians, nuclear medicine department leads, you have nuclear medicine technicians, and you have people that are doing billing and coding.
2:19
So as you're looking to build trust, understanding what's important to each of those stakeholders is critically important.
2:26
And then customizing your services for those individuals, whether it's ordering, making it as simple as possible.
2:34
manufacturing, distributing the product has to be super reliable.
2:59
As Theranostics expands beyond major academic centers, What changes would you like to see for training, staffing models, and standardized pathways to help community settings participate over time?

1:32
So I've been, you know, I was blessed with contact.
1:35
So I've been gifted.
1:36
They've given me so much supporting evidence.
1:39
I had a ton of vocalizations and There's been so much happen.
1:43
You know, it's all connected to all this other crazy stuff going on.

She says, are they an issue to national security because of their knowledge, because what they could teach us or knowledge about what? And is it because we found out? I don't know if you want to answer that.
