Just recently, some hikers snapped pics of this enigmatic dude up in the German mountains who has apparently been living in the wild for five years. According to these hikers, the guy was stark naked, and they went ahead and dubbed him a "wolf man."
From The New York Post:
Gina Weiss and her friend Tobi encountered the unkempt figure who sat on a rock and seemingly carried a spear in the heart of the wildness, telling German newspaper Bild that the figure “wouldn’t take his eyes (off) us.”
Weiss, 31, said the chance encounter with the unknown mountain man lasted about 10 minutes as she explored the woods near Blankenburg, about 150 miles outside of Berlin.
“When we reached the sand caves we saw the wolf man,” Weiss told the outlet.
“He stood up high on one of the caves and held a long wooden stick like a lance in his arm.”
Weiss estimated the man to be in his 40s and said it looked as if he was from the prehistoric era.
“He wouldn’t take his eyes off us, said nothing. He looked dirty like a Stone Age man from a history book,” she revealed.
The Times reported that police in Blankenburg received multiple reports over the past five years of a bizarre figure draped in “wolf fur or in a wolf costume” who roamed freely in its wilderness.
Talk about creepy!
Imagine being out on a nice scenic hike and spotting this weirdo lurking in the woods, staring you down like a psychopath.
I'd swear off hiking indefinitely...
