Monster Or No Monster?

May 31, 2007 Posted by John at 8:27 PM

A video made by an "amateur scientist" surfaced today from Scotland. It was filmed at Loch Ness, and purports to show the long-rumored "monster." I suppose I could be fooled as easily as the next guy, but the video seems fairly compelling. Here it is:






I'd always been dismissive of Loch Ness stories, but we were in Scotland a few years ago, staying just off the southern end of the lake. We met a local minister who swore that, one evening some years earlier, he had been driving along the shore of Loch Ness and had seen a long, eel-like creature swimming in the water. He was sober at the time, too. (The ambiguity is deliberate.) So, who knows?
