Just to preface this, I picked this story because after I read it, I could I just couldn't stop thinking about it, and it had, like it just an effect on how how I was feeling throughout the whole day. This is a search and rescue gay, right, this is a Yeah, it's not one of his stories, and he was says as a as just a weird story, but yeah, as soon as I read it, I was like this, something about this is just I could feel like a chill down my spine just thinking about it as a reality. This is one of the weirder stories that I have now. I don't know if this is true in every search and rescue unit, but in mind, it's sort of an unspoken regular thing we run into. You can try asking about it and other with to other surgeon officers, but even if they know what you're talking about, they probably won't say anything about it. We've been told not to talk about it by our superiors, and at this point we've all gotten so used to it it doesn't even seem weird anymore. Just about every case where we were really far into wilderness, I'm talking like thirty or forty miles, at some point we'll find a staircase in the middle of the woods. It's almost like you took the stairs in your house and cut them out and put them in the forest. No foundation, no walls, no doors, and no remnants of a house other than the staircase. I asked about it the first time I saw some, and the other officer just told me, don't worry about it. It's normal. Everyone I asked said the same thing. I wanted to go check one out. I said, let's go. Let's let's go check it out. Let's go walk it, walk up the stairs, let's see if they're still usable. And I was told very emphatically to never go near any of them. At this point, I just sort of ignore them. Whenever we go out and we see them, and it happens frequently, I don't even talk about it anymore. The fucker so not to make First of all, yeah, thank you for those joining us live. We got somebody saying hi on YouTube. We've got somebody saying best podcast. Hey, it will take it. Yeah. Thanks everybody on Twitter commenting, and then those who have filing in on TikTok, appreciate it. We're sharing your scary stories, lives. What's happen in and where's a lot There's a lot of to unpack with this story that Jack just shared. So this is kind of like one of your favorite movies, Jack, Black Dog, Seeing the Black Dog, Ain't you? So? Like these truck drivers as they're driving throughout the night, there's a common thing where they see a black dog run across the road now and then, and that maybe they obviously associated with lack of sleep hallucinating, But this is kind of like a search and rescue thing where they're seeing these staircase in the woods. Yeah, and as they put it, it's guaranteed you're going to see one. After you go so far into the woods, thirty forty miles, you will come across staircase on the way of trying to find someone. This is this is every time. This is the craziest thing I have ever heard in my life. It's terrifying. Yeah, and near to not go to the not to not to go near them. That's his office, superior officers that don't talk about him and don't got And I think the main thing that got me was just why why do they know that? Why do they always find one? It's just it's super weird. Yeah, it kind of is like the black dog theory though. Yeah, the way out there in the woods at night, is it kind of like seeing water when you're in the desert. I mean like is that like well the stories say that, well, he's as he mentioned, it's not always at night when they see it. It's oh, plain day, it's just kind of just there. Is it very on what it looks like like you're just walking and like it it's like leaves grown. I'm just curious, like I'm trying to visualize this myself, Well, is it overgrown? Well? People did ask him in the comments, what do they look like? He said they do vary. Sometimes it looks like they've dilapidated a little bit, but he says most of the time it looks like they're well maintained and clear of like any debris. He said, it looks like a brand new staircase that just just like literally just came out of someone's house and it was just placed there. So he himself sees different staircases in the woods. Yeah. Yeah, like the common I don't want to say myth or folcalore, but what's the common thought if you approach the stairway staircase. Well, you know what, several people actually did ask him, like why do they say, don't approach it or why don't you he just said I don't want to talk about it, or he's kind of like played it off and just moved on to a different story, you know, how to follow that up? I couldn't. I couldn't. Good luck, Luke, I was gonna say, I couldn't process it. I was like, what is you know, he didn't listen as a scary story, so it was weird, and I'm like, well, why am I terrified? Why is he not terrified? Evidently fear is not a factor for you. That's true, because it would terrify me. It's very fear. That's great. I would poop my pants first, not be a factor if that's not scary to maybe he becomes used to it, though, you know, I don't know. I guess the first one. I would probably be like, oh, that's weird. Someone's house must have been knocked down here if I see like yeah, but like if people that your coworkers are saying like you're gonna see this, don't go near it. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. And you're not allowed to talk your superiors tell you not to talk about it. Like it's kind of like the UFO things, like when you hear the a lot of these Air Force bases and naval stories where they're like the superiors like they have this radar proof of this happening, the spirits, or like you can't, don't talk about it, don't share it. It's just so strange, Yeah,
