Former Oregon city councilman goes viral after claiming he saw a GIANT who parted a huge mountain rock formation like a 'door' and 'peeked' out (just before he started filming)

A former Oregon city councilman has gone viral after claiming he saw a giant who parted a huge mountain rock formation like a 'door' and 'peeked' out. 

James Goble was making his way through Quartzville Drive near the Green Peter Reservoir when he claims he saw a giant peep through a large rock on the side of the road in the Cascade foothills on October 23. 

The mythical creature, however, disappeared before he could get his phone out to record the ordeal, the former Sweet Home councilmember said. 

Goble, who is also a production manager for a titanium casting foundry, has made multiple videos since his initial theory went viral on TikTok- as he answers questions from followers and returns to the rocky site.

Peeking from behind the 'door' in the rock formation was a giant, he claims. 

In the viral clip which he since deleted, Goble said: 'It looked like somebody was staring out of it. Dude, giants are freaking real. I don't care what anybody says.' 

He said that now when he goes out with his wife for dinner, he's called the 'giant guy' by members of the public who recognize him. 

Goble now returns to the rock to point out the 'pivot points' and said that he's going to fly a drone over parts of the rocks to check them out in more detail.

He has also started discussing fan theories while pointing out the cracks, drag marks, and interesting formations. Goble maintains that his giant sighting was real.

Goble told KOIN 6 News: 'The power of social media is wide, and I never thought this would go so far. I've posted things in the past, but I only had 60 people following me. 

'So, when I heard and 'thought' I saw something, I did a video after for my friends to see what I [was] seeing.

'It is amazing how many people are adventuring out to see this. They all need to be careful and leave no trace of garbage around. I truly hope some gets lucky as I did, and it changes their lives forever.'

Linn County spokesperson Alex Paul tried to dissuade people from going and exploring the mountainside: 'We do not support folks going in there and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers does not want folks in there due to the water level drawdown at Green Peter Reservoir.' 

The theories have captured the imaginations of many people online.

One person said: 'I absolutely believe there's entrances to inner earth. That rock looks like it's placed there.' And another added: 'Wonder if you put a trail camera facing the rock door seeing if it would pick up if the door opens?'

Others said they had also previously visited and had out-of-this-world encounters.

Another TikToker said: 'I was outside of that area years ago during winter and had taken a photograph that captured a “giant” footprint in the snow. I believe the picture now.' 

And a fourth added: 'I watched your original a definitely it was a giant that closed the rock door.' 

Another person wrote: 'Looked it up on Google maps and even from there you can totally see it looks like a door. Super strange.' 

Other people claim to see giants' footprints and faces in the rocks behind Goble during his videos.
