Alaska’s Giant Bigfoot That Terrorized a Town, the Terrifying Nantinaq

In the abandoned town of Portlock, Alaska, something terrifying lurks: the Nantinaq, Alaska’s giant Bigfoot. In this Metaphysical episode, Rob and John investigate sightings of the strange “hairy man of Alaska,” discussing whether these claims are real, false, or if perhaps the answer lies somewhere in the middle. They also look into a place dubbed “Bigfoot Island,” and some extremely bizarre occurrences of 1500 lb. trees being turned upside down and driven 4 feet deep into the ground, with no evidence of human equipment involved in the process.

There is no stranger account of an Alaskan mystery than that of the abandoned village of Port Chatham, Alaska (Portlock). Residents were reportedly chased out by a series of murders, which were blamed on a strange beast from the forest. Now, the reports are split between 1) debunkers claiming there’s no evidence of the creature and 2) hunters traveling to the area, spending thousands to locate what they call the Alaskan Nantinaq—a Bigfoot larger, stronger and more ferocious than any other on the planet. And why wouldn’t it be? Not just anything can survive in Alaska.

Of stories and evidence of Bigfoot sightings around the world, some stand out more than others, especially when you get to the mysterious territories in the north and especially when you get to Alaska—a sparsely populated, volatile countryside in which legends have been passed down for generations verbally. Today, the mysteries have trickled down to Alaska’s current American inhabitants. Join investigative researcher Rob Counts and remote viewer John Vivanco for a show that’s out of this world.
