Yes, it's true

Loch Ness Monster caught on video !!

Story Highlights:

Quote:

• An amateur scientist has captured new video footage of the Loch Ness Monster
• "Nessie" was first captured on film in the 1930s
• There have been more than 4,000 purported sightings since then

Quote:

An amateur scientist has captured what Loch Ness Monster watchers say is among the finest footage ever taken of the elusive mythical creature reputed to swim beneath the waters of Scotland's most mysterious lake. (Watch the 'monster' footage )

"I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this jet black thing, about 45-feet (15 meters) long, moving fairly fast in the water," said Gordon Holmes, the 55-year-old a lab technician from Shipley, Yorkshire, who took the video this past Saturday.

He said it moved at about 6 mph (10 kph) and kept a fairly straight course.

You know, I've never really understood the fascination of Nessie and Bigfoot.

Do people think there is an entire race of 50' long creatures living in an isolated area like Loch Ness and they ALL have been able to elude discovery or is it just one super intelligent creature, at least 70 years old now, who has been able to keep concrete evidence out of the hands of man for nearly a century?

I swear, it simply amazes me to think about how many people in the world have more imagination than common sense.

...and what exactly is wrong with posing a serious question even if the subject is lighthearted?

We might actually HAVE some believers among us who can share a little insight....

There is absolutely nothing wrong with posing the question..
It's just like when my kids ask an intelligent question about the cheesy SCI-FI show we might be watching... I just tell them to "go with it"

Well what can I say....we've all done that, but somehow actually reading it on paper just makes it seem so wrong....

LOL just keep in mind.. I made the post all in good fun.. I don't believe for a minute there's anything down there either. Or like you say.. it's been damn good at hiding all these years..

For BS - some of my favorite quotes - PLEASE know they are just for fun, not any serious statements being made here:

"To imagine is everything - to know is nothing at all!" - anonymous

"Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." - Lewis Carroll.

"Reality leaves a lot to the imagination." - John Lennon

It's just fun to play around with the all of the possibilities you suggested for Nessie (many creatures or just one elusive monster). According to Wikipedia, the lake is huge, extremely deep (the Tower of London could be submerged into its deepest spot), and is very murky due to the peat that grows in it. It's also very cold. It is interconnected with other waterways & lochs.

Therefore, divers have a hard time exploring the loch. It's an unchartered and mysterious - like the Black Forest in Germany for the Grimm Brothers - the birthplace of fairytales and legends. Native American stories are much the same. We are drawn to the inexplicable!

The video is extemely clear compared to those in the past! I'm not sure that I believe there is a creature there, but the possibility that there could be does exist! I hope the mystery is never solved and we are always left to make up our own stories!

Actually Loch Ness is only 23 miles long with an average depth of about 600'.

WELL within the study range of modern technology. You're telling me we can find submarines in the vast depths of the worlds oceans but can't find a single 50' long creature in a lake even though, theoretically speaking, there must be at least TWO for the species to propagate.

I say don't look too hard for it. Can we not just keep some mysteries of the world a mystery?

Obviously not against Walt Disney's! He built an empire on the stuff dreams are made of!! Imagination can be profitable.

BTW, like the sasquatch video, rhertz.

Hey Teacher that would be sasquatch

Nice video rhertz it made me laugh for sure. I still can remember when The Legend of Boggy Creek came out and we took our dates to see it and then in the woods for a nice ride down in Frierson in big woods. Worked very nice
