The above URL makes some compelling viewing . I did some of my own film analysis including filtering, freeze framing and background screening. The film actually does stack up. The one thing that perhaps im not so happy about are the 2 girls leaning over the front of the boat looking down before the creature has crossed the bow at right angles. The "still path wake" of the boats transition in the water is realistic on the basis of the boats direction and final resting place at time of filming. Also the creature has passed across the "still boat wake" at a 30-40 degree angle thus eliminating any evidence of underwater tampering.

Having taken 3 of the many freeze frames i was amazed to see a head and eye in all 3. ! The head had a silver pale coloured band that went round the side and front of the mouth.

I would encourage whoever these people are to have the film submitted to the Lab for further analysis. The film is very compelling.

With the fact that charcaricadon megalodon a type of ancient great white shark was about 50 foot long, plus the recent find of an ancient wombat jawbone put the size of the wombat at 5-8 times the size of modern day wombats, given the find of fossilised dragon flies with 50 inch wing spans, and fosislised giant spiders "megarachne servani" with a body index of 1.5 foot, is it fair to say that since the creatures on earth now are dimunitives in comparison, that we and the animals on this planet are quite clearly devolving and not evolving. There are so many examples of larger more powerful creatures, their modern day equivalents are tiny in comparison

Further, if an ancient form of man existed, in comparison to other ancient creatures to their modern day equivalents, is it not fiar to say he would have been a lot bigger than he is now, whatever allowed that wombat, that spider and that shark to be gigantic, why would not that have allowed the so called comman ancestor to be huge too?

Seeing as fossils are not actually dated by carbon dating, but by their position in the geological column, and how the geological column is dated by the fossils that are found in it, can we really cliam the earth is millions of years old?

The geological column was invented by hutton and lyle in the 1850's. They asssigned layers and fossils with ages of 70 million years old and more.Such as the happily seen swimming calelocant. Seeing as they did not possess any scientific techniques in the 1850's to date anything even up to 250,000 years, how can we still rely on this geological column when it's a flawed scientific standard of over 150 years.

The fossil record is not concrete proof of anything evolving, it's concrete proof of fossils. They have found fossilised hats and cowboy boots, indicating that fossilisation and petrification is a process that requires certain conditions and not millions of years

does this sound feasable, because i thought most things would be melted in the molten lava but i wanted to know whether this would cause any adverse reactions like triggering an erruption and or create more green house gas pollution and or any other type of pollution.

I think I found a dimond in my backyard cause I live by the mountains and I hit it with a hammer against the concrete with all of my force ( and I can lift 300 pounds) and it only broke a little bit .
