Do you think that the "Loch Ness Monster." (Nessie) is real? If so, where do you think she might be at this moment in time? Dead? Giving birth to another Nessie? Roaming the large bodies of water, trying to find a true home?
I am here today to PROVE - Yes, PROVE - That Nessie IS real. (Let's just hope she is still alive. *Crosses fingers.*)
1. GOOGLE FOUND HER!
A bristish security guard, Jason Cooke, found the mysterious "Nessie" while searching through the satellites photos.
If you look at the photo above, the shape seen on the surface of the 22-mile Scottish loch is 65ft long and appears to have an oval body, a tail and four legs or flippers.
Some experts believe Nessie may be a Plesiosaur, an extinct marine reptile with a shape like the Google image.
Security guard Jason, 25, of Nottingham, said: "I couldn't believe it. It's just like the descriptions of Nessie."
Researcher Adrian Shine, of the Loch Ness Project, said: "This is really intriguing. It needs further study."
Some say that it is just one of the boats that normal float by around that area, but look at the distinct shape of the body. Do you see a pointy tip at the so called "End of the boat."?
2. More sightings around the place where it was born?
The original people who reported seeing "Nessie" in that same lake in scottland are back for more, and they brought there kids!
July 22, 1933 - Mr. and Mrs. Spicer saw Nessie on land! While passing the loch on their way to London from Northern Scotland, the couple saw the large creature crossing the road in front of them. Mr. Spicer told the newspaper that it looked like a large prehistoric creature and was carrying a small lamb or some other animal in its mouth. He described it as being about 25 feet long with a long neck. He believed it disappeared into the loch.
November, 1933 - The first photo of the alleged monster was taken by Hugh Gray.
1934 - Brother Richard Horan saw the neck and head protruding from the water at only 30 yards away. He said it reached about 3-1/2 feet above the surface, and the creature was looking at him.
1963 - Mr. Hugh Ayton claimed to have seen the creature from shore. He and three friends jumped into a motor boat and followed it for about a mile. He said he could never forget its large oval-shaped eye looking at him from its horse-like head.
1972 - A monk at the Fort Augustus Abbey, Father Gregory Brusey, was walking with an organist when they both saw the neck and head of the creature protruding about 6 feet above the loch's surface. They said it moved through the water, turned on its side and submerged.
This is known to be the clearest sighting of Nessie out there.
3. GOVERNMENT ADMITS NESSIE EXIST!!
New files have been released under the Freedom of Information Act that clearly show that Mrs Thatcher's government believed in the existence of Nessie the Loch Ness Monster and actively investigated methods for protecting her. Once The Morning Glory program on Channel 4 got to hear about it they turned to leading Loch Ness monster expert Mikko Takala for the official view.
Senior civil servants were concerned that attempts to hunt and capture Nessie could result in harm or even death to the unknown creature and so a great deal of government time and money was spent researching options for her protection. Eventually they concluded that she was well covered by the 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act, which gives protection to all wild creatures whether or not they are known to science.
Later, the Swedes approached the British Foreign Office for advice on protecting Storsjo monster, Sweden’s equivalent of Nessie, which is believed to inhabit Lake Storsjo (in the north of the country). This prompted all sorts of memos between mandarins in both countries including this from J F Buckle, an official at the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries. He wrote “Unfortunately Nessie is not a salmon and would not appear to qualify as a freshwater fish under the Salmon and Fisheries Protection (Scotland) Act 1951.”
Another official was worried for Nessie: "We should maintain the likelihood of protection for what would be a very rare species if ever identified.”
While many of the failed monster hunters of the 70s and 80s now set up exhibitions and contact the media in an apparently desperate attempt to persuade people to give up their belief in Nessie, these newly declassified documents from the government clearly show that she is believed to exist at the highest levels. Indeed, government interest in the Loch Ness Monster didn't end under Mrs. Thatcher's reign. As recently as 2001 The Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (an un-elected quango) tried to set up a panel of "experts" including formally unqualified former monster hunters who now try to debunk the existence of the monster and other folk who wanted the right to control future hunts for the monster.
Finally, when Channel 4's Morning Glory team arrived from London with a satellite uplink truck to film a live interview with Mikko about all this, they were trapped by Nessie and had to be hauled out of her grip!!!
1. If nobody else can prove it exists, I doubt a 12 year old [you] could, no offence.
2. That picture doesn't even look like the dinosaur it's supposed to be
3. It wouldn't be able to live that long
4. I think people would notice if there was a freaking dinosaur in a lake. You could just send scuba divers or a submarine or something in, look for it, feces, carcass...
5. It would have to eat.. A LOT. I highly doubt there would be enough fish to feed it.
