NEW loch ness footage!

Forums New posts
Vid didn't work until I refreshed 3 times. So try that if you have that problem.

I hope they can get a size estimate. So far my bets are on an otter.
 
I think this one looks pretty good. If it were just something dark that appeared as a head it could be explained as another one of those errant waves. But since you can see it is actually pretty long and dark in the water, I don't know that they can use the wave theory to dismiss it.

I wonder if the original video was longer. I would like to see how it all ended.

I couldn't stand the text left on the screen. What a selfish prick the person is who did that. It totally distorted the view and sure did help anyone "see" this better.
 
For a stabilized version of the video, go to this thread on Bigfootforums:

Here are terrific quotes from a few of the BFF posters. In reply to a poster who recited the standard objections to the possibility of Nessies existing in the loch, "Morgoth" replied:

"You are right on every point, but what a difference a day makes. This video is going to be HUGE. This is going to be Nessie's PGF [Patterson-Gimlin Film]."

Crytodon posted:
"Let's see Penn and Teller make jokes about their 'balless eel' now. For the moment ... I shall bask in the validation of being a crypto-geek."

Morgoth again:
"It's going to take more than a wet blanket to cover up this beastie.
..........
"This IS Nessie. But what Nessie actually IS will be the subject of much debate. Either that or it's a publicity stunt for The Water Horse movie coming out this summer.

"Watch the worldwide publicity and reaction. Trace the trajectory of the bloggers. Study the global flow of information. Then learn. Because this is a dress rehearsal for Bigfoot's big debut."

FanOfSquatch posted:
"The CNN clip shows nothing but Morgoth's clips got me thinking that there is more to it than a video/water/wind effect. My uncle spent quite a few years over there fishing the lochs and he says no doubt about it, it's the eels everyone is seeing."

Interesting, the text was in the center of my screen.

That came to mind too, but there wasn't enough wiggle for me to favor it over a otter. It's been awhile since I've seen eel footage though. Eel, otter and seal as Reaven mentioned are on the table.

I just looked that up. It's a kind of pike huh? While it would scare me if I was in the water with it, there is just something inherently more creepy about the serpentine body form that an eel or snake has.

yeah...have you ever seen the eel segment on the "weird foods" show? the more they're handled, the slimier they get....*shiver*

edit: no, this is not a thinly veiled Freudian reference
