They just need to ask Bigfoot. If anyone would know, it's him.
“Gotta find me first!” *dives into a bush*
Haha
Finally, some common sense
Bigfoot is actually a prehistoric ape animal known as Gigantopithecus
The tooth fairy said it's fake news.
Hi hi hi, I sit….near the shores of Loch Ness! 😂 watching from the Scottish Highlands 🏴 Loch Ness isn’t like a usual ‘lake’, its like a fault line and is exceptionally deep with lots of ‘nooks and crannies’…. It’s fabulous
One of the legends about the Loch Ness Monster is that there is a legend about the Loch Ness Monster. In fact, it‘s an entirely 20th century phenomenon dating to 1933. The St. Colomba story from the 6th century didn‘t even occur in the lake but in the river, and the story is packed full of all kinds of other miraculous events that nobody believes. We‘re in Bigfoot territory here, folks!
You are absolutely wrong, we did DNA testing on the water and found it to be full of eel DNA.
This matches the descriptions that people have made.
Yes, but an eel isn't exactly what most people understand by the term "monster," is it?@@b00ts4ndc4ts
Bigfoot/Sasquatch is real. We have good video, DNA analysis, hair, scat, blood, and expert witnesses who've seen these things up close and personal, and last but not least, undeniable scientific analyses of footprints. Even ThinkerThunker has done undeniable analyses on the proportions of the videoed creatures that CAN NOT be human. Short of shooting one for scientific research, we've got all the scientific evidence we need that shows that BigFoot/Sasquatch is a real species of North American giant ape.
@@b00ts4ndc4ts Then the lochness monster isn't an ancient plesiosaur but a giant eel. If you guys ever caught one please tell me how the meat taste like.
Brought to you by , The Lock Ness Chamber of Commerce.
i will prove wrong. just give me $1M to set up a team
Exactly. Just like Roswell, etc. It's all chamber of commerce creations to foster tourism and money.
Our three and five year old kids saw the Loch Ness Monster back in 1985, so it is definitely out there, but maybe a bit grayer and slower 38 years later. However, grownups should not waste their time searching for it, because it is visible only to kids.
Is it really there
Yeah the loch ness monster is also in the large reservoir in New York in America
How many hundreds of years do they think this animal has lived??
That's how they create business
I guess they think it's immortal also.
True the search of Bigfoot and the sea monster is one of the most ancient adult male child games of all times it doesn't matter that these creatures lived and died hundreds of thousands of years ago it's about going out with your buddies with flashlights and rafts with a little tickling in your gut
If it is real, many scientists agree it would be some undiscovered species of eel or fish and over the centuries, a couple of them from each generation grew abnormally large and were spotted near the surface. I feel like almost every large lake has similar legends based on people seeing randomly huge fish.
There are examples in nature of animals having long lifespans, crocodiles, whales and the infamous tortoises. Besides that, no one said it’s only one creature hundred of years old.
I personally like Nessie the way she is. We want to know, we don’t need to know. Knowing for sure one way or the other will likely be to the detriment of people possibly the animal
Actual telephone recording proving the existence of Nessie: ua-cam.com/video/ykxP9GqPhc8/v-deo.html
What’s wrong with allowing mysteries to remain…mysterious?!
I think it’s far more inspirational as it as opposed to knowing for sure one way or the other.
Leave Nessie alone!
Loch Ness footage
Just because you see some unidentified fish or mammal does not make it a monster. Seals, large Otters, large Eels, small Whales large fish like sturgeon could all find their way into and out of the loch.
Whales that live in salt water swam up the River Ness that in some parts are knee deep and made their way into Loch Ness. Oh, that's the best one yet 😂😂😂
"monster." Literally _showpiece..._
I think it was a whale or a dolphin, especially after i seen that famous picture of it recently
Okay Karen….
Water-saturated tree branch or log that momentarily resurfaced due to small changes in water temperature and density. Surging upward and outward from the water's surface and seen from a considerable distance in poor viewing conditions, it could easily have been mistaken for a live animal. And then active imaginations converted that fuzzy, leaping "animal" into a terrible monster.
He talks about all the technology being used this time, but didn't mention one of the most important. What about all the photographers with their grainy, out of focus cameras?
It’s always been fun to imagine the possibilities. Frankly, I’d rather they not destroy the mystery. 🤷🏼♀️
It's almost impossible to prove a negative -- that somethin' ain't so.
We all know there's no mystery. Lol. People just like telling each other stories and are bored out of their minds.
I still think of Men Who Stare At Goats, when he says he knows what’s in Loch Ness, Ghost of a Dinosaur 😂 killed me
There's plenty of things we haven't discovered. Watch them find something. That would be actually awesome.
Water-saturated wood in the form of tree branches or logs often have density close to that of the water they are submerged in. Changes in atmospheric and water conditions can cause the water density to periodically change, which may cause some of such branches or logs to move upward or downward in the water. It is very likely that someone, a significant distance away, saw and photographed such a branch or log surfacing and later sinking. Photographs of unidentified objects (potential branches or logs) are always very fuzzy, and the subject (Loch Ness Monster?) is always difficult to identify, which is why the subject (Loch Ness Monster?) forever remains unidentified. Instead of wasting time searching for the Loch Ness Monster, the search should concentrate on locating saturated branches and logs that may be posing as Loch Ness Monsters.
@nomenclature9607 You only need a few to survive to breed, and the Loch is huge and a mile deep in certain areas! It's possible!
@@leemorton1 A mile deep in certain areas? just search those areas too then. You won't find anything. How can people be so naive about the world and our ability to detect things? You really think it's possible? Like do you believe there are magical dragons flying around somewhere too?
Tax payer money well spent in my opinion
i didnt realize your tax payer money went into peoples vacations/ time off from work or hobbies@@jhowardsupporter
When you see stories like this it makes me wonder what is happening that would be so serious that they need to distract us.
Aliens putting microchips in your hair🙄

if anything, Nessie is from the Miocene. I found that out because I once as a kid almost drowned in a Bavaria lake, (I won't say which one but one could probably find that out, from what I am telling here), and wanted to know what was in that lake, if it was poisoned or okay or what lives in that lake etc. I found out the lake has intakes from several rivers, which themselves go way down to the Donau and then to the Black Sea. Then I was reading about the Black Sea, and it obviously developed during the Miocene, or better, the Miocene was before the Black Sea, so I wanted to find out which kind of animals existed during that time, and found some pictures on the Internet which showed a Nessie like creature, and others.
I just wanted to know if there were huge fish in that Bavarian lake which could have saved me or were just big, well, just out of curiosity. So basically, in that Black Sea there could be such creatures if they survived through the centuries and such creatures could well come into those lakes, if they take the journey through these rivers all the way. But it is of course, speculation, merely an idea.
(and there are big fish in that lake, they grow very old there even and some even seem to have strong teeth...) I did not meet one of them but maybe I was just too out - like, they say, going down in a deep sea or diving in a deep sea/ocean could be like being an astronaut gaining time in space, so I thought, I might have gained some years there (cause I look so young and am a bit older than people think), I thought it might be out of that reason, because I almost sank to the bottom in the lake, feeling not even scared (it happens when divers loose oxygen and also are too deep)... anyways, I believe in Nessie and wish they find it but hope they treat it well or will leave it alone. Or they find a Kappa... but I hope not, for the sake of the Kappa.
All Marine reptiles (that we know of) sadly went extinct in the late Cretaceous period, about 66 million years ago. The Miocene was fairly recent (only 23 - 5 million years ago), so all marine reptiles would have been extinct by that time. The Miocene was really the time of large mammals, and a few large monitor lizards and snakes but that’s it. Also we only know of MAYBE at the most 5-10 species of marine reptile that actually ventured into freshwater. They where basically strictly ocean creatures. And none of those 10 include plesiosaurs, which where to our knowledge 100% ocean creatures. Being that plesiosaurs are what Nessie is proposed to be.
@@southwesthardypalms Just let her believe. Why do you have to ruin her fun?
@@blackwater7183 Because I’m a paleontologist. I’m sorry but if someone claims plesiosaurs are from the Miocene, any paleontologist on earth would correct them. It’s not out of hate, there’s just WAY too much misinformation out there about these animals. My job is to study these animals, and educate the public accordingly. Just like a mechanic if they saw someone saying something that was completely wrong about cars, they wouldn’t just sit idly by and let it happen. I have no problem with people wanting to believe they are still around today for the fun of it, but from what we know the last time they where ever on earth was in the late Cretaceous not Miocene.
@@southwesthardypalms Yes facts are facts but these people want to believe which makes life more interesting. I guess an analogy would be a child wanting to believe Santa Claus. Would you sit down and tell a child he isn't real? or would you make them believe the magic until it lasts?
The country with one of the highest rates of alcoholism reports seeing monsters in a lake. I think I vN figure this out
I've seen it many times especially coming out the local Inn,,after a skin full
There's no need: if there are deer in the woods, even if you very rarely see one out of the corner of your eye and you can't be sure they are actually there, sooner or later you will find one dead.
Just the same, If there are gigantic aquatic dinosaurs in your lake, sooner or later one will die and float to the surface.
It takes a minimum of 5,000 individuals to maintain a species.
There's no Loch Ness Monster, alone, unless it's hundreds of years old.
I have always believed that a large, concerted effort would be the only solution. Only if it were well coordinated. It has to be approached like a search for a missing person. Search every square nautical acre of water, from end, to end. That is the only way to set it as done.
Most people that go missing on water are never found. Even our Prime Ministers own brother was never found.
Has happened several times. No results so far.
Aleister Crowley's long lost pet.
I saw a documentary one time where a marine biologist did a study on the lake. His conclusion was that the lake didn't have the food a large animal or group of large animals would need to live. Also, in order for a species to continue to exist, there has to be a big enough diversity in the gene pool. This lake is not big enough to hide a whole species of large animals. If it was there you would see it all the time. It is more than likely a species that exists and is known just mistaken(like a large eel). So now you know..
It only exists because people’s livelihoods depend on it 😂
The loch opens into the ocean in multiple places. I’d think it foolish to assume individuals from an unknown species couldn’t possibly occasionally venture into the loch.
Agree, there would have to be a population for them to exist and you would think that remains would have been found by now.
well, if in other smaller lakes (and the lake I speak of is actually kinda big) there are fish that can grow to be 20 years or slightly older (or slightly younger), and are very heavy and huge, than in Loch Ness there should be some food for the bigger species by any means, whatever those may be. I guess there is enough food to survive for a while. And if not survive for so long, would they not find the skeletons of the creatures down there, it would be proof as well?
@@maxwellmaxwell3042 at no point does Loch Ness open into the Ocean. It is connected to the sea by the river Ness or the Caledonian canal via Loch Dochfour. Clearly you've never actually been to Loch Ness.
If there is a Nessie, I'm sure he (or she) is quite irritated by now that the damned humans won't take the hint and leave him the Hell alone.
Last year I attended a hardware convention in Scotland and I actually saw the lock nut connector
To many uptight people. Let these people have their legends and adventures. The world is more interesting this way.
Feel like the 70's are back, lol
i wonder if we could watch them live during the expedition?
I want to know how afraid are these people? I couldn't imagine myself anywhere close to this water.
There is sea dragons too. But why are they trying to find the loch ness? Are they trying to capture him?
What if it relocated or swam somewhere else?
I see nessie, Friday and Sunday at 23.45 when i leave the pub ❤😊
We have one here in lake Memphremagog (Memphré) and one in lake Champlain (Champ).
Amazing
It was a pre-historic dinosaur, just like in the movies.
Coelacanths were believed to have died out 66 million years ago until one was caught off the coast of South Africa in the late 30's.
Some geologists believe there is a natural network of subterranean tunnels and caves that link Loch Ness with several other bodies of water.
The only natural freshwater lake in Scotland, Lake of Menteith, got it's name due to a mistranslation.
Yes, but the coelacanth has been collected numerous times since and has been thoroughly documented. The Loch Ness Monster not so much.
" I said lo lochness monstah, waycha want, and you know what he said, he said... about thwee fiddy"
Smart way to market tourism for the area
If there is a Nessie, leave her/him alone.
How deep is that lake? They should deep dive and scan the entire area. We got the technology and U-boats etc.
The longest monster could be lurking anywhere, and maybe if the end of the water could be in there
It might be living in an underwater Cave.
yes! its more important than fixing homelessness/inflation etc.😂😱😨
They may very well get some footage of the animals. The Tim Dinsdale film from 1960 is good enough to convince me there’s a large unknown animal there.
Nothing better than a camera in the water.
Just start dropping depth charges
Did people forget it turned out to be driftwood?
Does the Loch Ness monster never die? I remember them talking about the LNM in the 1960s.
Ikr unless Nessie is a ghost plesiosaur 🤷♂️
Ahhh! 😃👍@@predamorfhunter
I haven’t heard about Nessie in over 25 years…. I don’t think this will ever be solve.
Yall really made a official video for this... come on dawg.
That's just sad
They should've just asked me, I know where the Lock Ness is. He's been chill'n with Big Foot lately but doesn't want to be bothered. 🤓
i saw the lochness with my own eyes😮
Anyway,Nessie is off on her holiday just now
Scotland really needs to put the bottle down.
I’ve always believed there’s something large in there, but as mentioned, it’s probably a giant eel or even a giant catfish.
It could be there or not
Technically, it is a dinosaur called a plesiosaurus
Tourism must be down at the Loch.
This is the proper skeptical reply.
I found nessy in my new camping spot today
If Nessie is there she or he should be left alone to live their life in peace 😢
Guys if you ever go to Loch Ness there are multiple loch rivers if you live near there do not go near the water’s at night
why does it happen now? is there a certain reason?
Every myth has his basis in fact so I believe that there is something there and if it is a poisonous door we're nipping it just to see one.
People regularly complain we're wasting money flying people into space when we should be investing in our problems here on earth, then we then have this group--searching for a fictional monster in a lake...
Given that Loch Ness was frozen all the way to the bottom during the last ice age, This is all a waste of resources.
"So there's family-ness..."
An elasmosaur is six-feet-long 2m at best, but I've seen video of an albino randomly startling a cameraman: at a glance it's a carp or catfish, but to the discerning-eye, the feelers are thick and the eyes are whale-like, no gills and no fins, just a tube-neck disappearing into the depths. I was shook and I never saw the clip again, I think it was too subtle to gain attention, looking like a white-koi.
it is like alliens stories.human enjoy fake things.
How many times do I have to say it "Its Aliens, Aliens Aliens!"
If it's true, this either one of many, many generations of Loch Ness monsters and there would be a population explosion of generations of Mommy and Daddy Loch Ness monsters and siblings or this is the longest living animal on earth.
The Loch Ness monster could just be a dog with the longest tail in the world
The bad news: They found no sign of a lake monster. The good news: They found a sunken extraterrestrial space ship with drowned "biologics."
It is a Loch not a lake.
If we don't find Nessie we should make one ourselves. Robotics and genetic engineering has gotten very advanced these years.😁
That happened in the Gravity Falls show, someone made a robot of the monster to impersonate a real one
Bassline question if the Lost next semester existed and we're talking for centuries that means this would be something that's a thousand years old plus easily now if there's multiples of it that means there has to be a large pool what that would mean is you would have to have enough of a population to support it therefore speaking for something that big this stay hitting would be impossible
It’s the Midgard serpent 😅
The lock ness monster is currently hanging out with big foot and Jesus
KING Jesus
Oh sweet Jesus. I wish I could say that I can't believe people are STILL hunting that mythical creature.
Guys. THERE IS NO LOCH NESS MONSTER. Trust me.
You want us to just…take your word for it?
I saw a leprechaun there he was on holiday looking for gold.
@@maxwellmaxwell3042Well, alternatively you could learn a little of the history of the "monster". About the guy in 1933 who reckoned he saw it. About all the failed efforts to find it since then. About the fact there is nowhere near enough food in the loch to support such a creature (forget about breeding couples). and so on. You might also want to reflect on the fact that Nessie generates a nice revenue for the locality.
Been to the ness nothing seen but l could sense theres something in there its a very powerful presence there far too powerful for humans to find unless it lets you.
These dudes better launch some drones each carrying just about Tree Fiddy. If they fail, it’s because they forgot this important step.
The monster will be put in a special exhibit at the zoo where zoo goers will have to pay extra to go in and pat the monster
Stay hidden Nessie!
You MUST stop! The Lock Ness Monster wants privacy! Don't want privacy at those most curious times?
There's a hole under heading to the sea
Ask Napoleon Dynamite about Nessie, very real
Just leave them alone
Well, apparently Aliens are a thing now, so it wouldn't be a stretch if Nessie was also real.
I'm sure Godzilla ate it by now
This is really just Chuck Todd doing the backstroke while wearing a strapon.
Certainly beats trying to find the “animal” responsible for the origin of Covid 😂
Over 700ft is a pretty extreme size for an eel. 😂
I here the Scottish whiskey is to die for ...........Bahahahaha
It’s not a lake! It’s a Loch, it’s in Scotland.
Sonor contacts? How about fish
Again?
Is this real
Hello 🌷🍀
I wrote the book on Loch Ness monster Murphys stories and laws tells you everything you ever wanted to know about Loch Ness monster
It's morning wood
At a minimum it's something fun to bring people together on the water. They will spend some money get rained on get cold and wet got to the Pub eat have a Brew and go home.
