I’m from. Brighton but my mum and dad were from Inverness, so I’ve been to Loch Ness many times; I’m convinced that there is a family of creatures (maybe Plesiosaur's) in the Loch; my Grandad saw one of the Nessie’s more than once.
I truly believe that if all of the Nessies are treated with a warm and peaceful heart, none of them will become scary…or dangerous…
Great video pal
As a massive Nessophile thank you so much for this amazing video. Not sure if I’ll ever make it there from Australia, but watching this was amazing. Fantastic video 🎉
I hope you do get to see loch Ness.
Beutiful narrative Alan.
@Astronut54 Cheers John, I appreciate the comment 🙌🏻
I believe you're absolutely right about smaller finds to be discovered in the Loch. The sediment must surely be hiding lots of history and it's waiting to be found. Out of interest, what funding figure is needed to obtain the necessary equipment for more exploration?
Absolutely. The sediment grows each year and the levels will differ depending on the world above and weather conditions. It's truly fascinating! The Loch Ness Project was able to penetrate the sediment up to 20ft. That's 20ft of soft ancient sediment, which is surely hiding something of interest.
An operation to search the bottom of the Loch or the Loch side walls won't be cheap, unfortunately. We'd need a boat with sonar, divers, and ROVs. We have access to the research vessel DEEPSCAN, but it is limited access. I would love nothing more than to team up with Adrian and continue his work which is far from over, long may he stay at Loch Ness I say.
Beautiful set of statements. I always found footage of the actual lake amazing! I'd love to visit and have no problem with a small sliver of my brain still subconsciously yearning for a nessie-like experience to trick my brain. Who knows, ya?
Thank you for saying so. I think we are all yearning for that piece of evidence. If Nessie does exist, then we very much need to be in the right place at the right time. Either way, Loch Ness is awesome to explore.
Even though Loch Ness creates illusions on the water surface and rolling waves bounce off the steep hills the amount of eye witness reports is hard to ignore. Aside from the many mistaken sightings that fool honest people there is a large number of sightings made by anglers, fisherman, outdoorsman, people familiar with the Lochs environment. It's those sightings that keep me intrigued that there could be several large animals either known and out of place or undocumented living in the Loch. I do find myself more skeptical these days - until I pour over the list of sightings reported by people familiar to the Loch that are certain they witnessed a strange creature or large animal that is not known. Years ago I swam in Urqhuart Bay and the Robert Badger underwater sighting was playing out in my mind but the cold water was more of a concern. Despite the lack of clear video or photographs there is a great mystery of strange happenings within that Loch.
I love exploring the Robert Badger case. Our good friend Dick Raynor knew him well. I'll never go swimming in Loch Ness, I'll let the ROV in the future do that job. It's perfectly acceptable to change opinion and grow more skeptical over time. I don't see that as a negative at all. In my honest opinion, we need a good balance. Thanks for commenting, mate.
@@TeamLNE The thing is whenever I'm getting skeptical there seems to be a Gordon Holmes video or strong sonar contact that brings me back around. Dick is a good person to chat online with, I have spoke to him on facebook on occasion. ROV you say ? good stuff ! Put that down in the vicinity of recent sonars contacts towards the southern part of the Loch. Best of luck to you and I hope you find some solid evidence in 2024.
@@TeamLNE I wonder if a blanket of silt at the Loch bottom is obscuring any major finds or even ancient artifacts. I have not put much thought into artifacts being just inches below visibility. I bet you this - search for man made objects, artifacts, old tools/weapons/antiques just below the silt and you would find monster evidence sooner than directly searching for the monster !
@user-zh9mz7jg7e Preach my friend, preach! Dick’s knowledge, time, experience, and understanding of the Loch are inspiring. Having his support and standing shoulder to shoulder with him when on DEEPSCAN was an incredible experience and a personal milestone.
In regard to your 'conflicting' beliefs, I totally understand your position. Again, I wouldn't label your outlook as being negative, and that's the beauty of Loch Ness - it will forever capture the imagination and our curiosity. We just can't keep away 😉
I really enjoy conversations like this one, so thank you. Without a shadow of doubt, I believe that there’s plenty left to discover in the Loch. The soft sediment resting at the bottom could very easily conceal objects and possible remains (if any existed in the first place). The ROSETTA Project headed by Adrian Shine was able to breach the sediment to roughly 22ft down when taking core samples, and that now means that time has allowed the sediment to build upon itself.
For the record, LNE and the LNC don't actually have an ROV at the moment, but it's something we're currently exploring. We'll definitely get there!
I have this silly fantasy of the water of the Loch turning transparent as the air while I walk on the bottom of it.
You aren't alone on that one. I've got several daydreams locked away in my imagination, as well as different scenarios.
In terms of visibility, may I suggest that you visit Loch Morar. It's Scotland’s deepest Loch, with beautiful scenery, crystal clear water and home to the Morag (nessie's cousin) Thanks for commenting @BP26P
Ya preserving history is important. England is amazing. I don’t agree with many laws or things in England, but when it comes to metal detecting the government requires people to turn finds in and then if they take it they compensate the metal detector finder.
In the U.S. 25% of all the land is owned by the federal government since they refused to give it to the states like they did prior basically to ensure the eastern states has control over western states.
But this means 25% of the U.S. if you find a coin even 50 years old or older you legally can’t take it. If you turn it in you get NOTHING. The government is incentivizing people to destroy history and metal objects down, or simply to destroy objects on private land to stop the government from stealing land they may want or people may just not report any finds and keep it hidden in a collection. England is great cause they can record finds whether or not they keep it and metal detectors guys get compensated so they’re incentivized to preserve history.
But the same is true for water. The ocean off the eastern U.S. is made into monuments so diving etc for ships is illegal. There’s thousands of ship wrecks that are illegal to salvage. Sure you may find a ship but the government will not preserve it since in a monument all artifacts are left there basically to continue to rot and decay. Private property or the government promoting private property and salvage etc is great so ships are salvaged and companies make some money but archeologists also get things. I remember a documentary of a ship recovered off of England and the government worked with the company to let them keep some of the find but museums or the government archeologists got stuff to preserve too. That way it’s private companies that finance recovery of things. There’s no way tax dollars and government programs will ever promote massive preservation of things since as we’ve seen since ww2 and before most governments spend most of their money on endless war and other wasteful pursuits.
I can hardly hear any of the dialogue in this video the sound is so poor
Oh no, that's not good. Let me see if I can fix the problem. Is the music too loud? Please forgive the quality, I've only got my phone to use for audio. I appreciate the feedback, but if you can be specific, that'd be great and then I'll attempt to fix it.
@@TeamLNE no worries I just hate if I miss anything 😃
@spambotful It might be my Scottish accent lol Sorry that you can't enjoy the video due to audio but please feel free to join the LNE Facebook group for updates and future plans if you're interested. Cheers mate 👍🏻
@@TeamLNE ha ha I’m Scottish no language barrier 🏴 I just couldn’t hear the dialogue I’ll turn up the telly 😅
@@spambotful A fellow Scot! We all seem to gravitate towards one another no matter where we are in the world 💙🏴💙
