is nessie real?

Answer 1

You just have to wonder if there isn't something there.

Answer 2

I live beside Loch Ness and i believe that Nessie is real. Perhaps dead now though. I believe there was something there to spark this rumour but that was so long ago that the creature must be dead now. However i like to believe that the monster is still alive because when i was younger we use to go to the beach beside loch ness and my dad would scare me by telling me stories about the monster- it was exciting and scary. It made it fun, my sister and i would try and see it from the car on the way there and on the way back. So whether true or not it is a bit like santa clause- knowing that he is not real is no fun anymore!!!!!! If the creature is still alive it must be a female because only a female is clever enough to hide for so long!

Answer 3

The science of Cryptozoology is the study of unidentified species of animals. In the vastness of our world it would be arrogant to say that "Nessie" or other unidentified creatures could not exist. Clearly Nessie is some form of creature. Most people have been indoctrinated to believe that dinosaurs are extinct. I would concur if you are talking about a T-Rex or some other huge variety, but modern day lizards are the decedents of dinosaurs and perhaps Nessie is simply one that as of yet is not clearly unidentified.

Answer 4

I think it's possible, If Nessie were actually some prehistoric creature that happened to go down far enough into the lake to escape the "extinction"...then yeah, I think it could be real. Plus, don't they have Nessie documented from many years ago by early sailors and people who lived in nearby castles...before tourism was big there?

Nessie might be down there, it might not be...just in case, I wouldn't go swimming in that lake...

Answer 5

In my opinion, Nessie is just an old myth back from the "oh dragons are real" era. I mean, if Nessie does exist why haven't people gone diving to see her and actually get footage of her. I mean come on already.

Answer 6

Some have argued a history of "monster" sightings in the loch provides circumstantial evidence supporting the creature's existence. Note that the validity and origins of these stories have been challenged, along with any "history" predating the early 1930s.

In the early 1970s, a group led by American patent lawyer Dr. Robert Rines obtained some underwater photographs. One was a vague image, perhaps of a rhomboid flipper (others have argued the object could be air bubbles or a fish fin). On the basis of this photograph, Sir Peter Scott, one of Britain's best-known naturalists, announced in 1975 that the scientific name of the monster would henceforth be Nessiteras rhombopteryx1 (Greek for "The Ness monster with diamond-shaped fin"). This would enable Nessie to be added to a British register of officially protected wildlife (but compare [1]). It has been noted by London newspapers that Nessiteras rhombopteryx is an anagram of "monster hoax by Sir Peter S." Monster-hunter Dr. Robert Rines replied that the letters could also be rearranged to spell "Yes, both pix are monsters--R."

The underwater photos were reportedly obtained by painstakingly scouring the loch's depths with sonar, over the course of days, for unusual underwater activity. An underwater camera with an affixed, high-powered light (necessary for penetrating Loch Ness' famed murk) was then deployed to record images from below the surface. Several of the resulting photographs, despite their obviously murky quality, did indeed seem to show an animal quite resembling a plesiosaur in various positions and lightings. A few close-ups of what is alleged to be the creature's diamond-shaped fin were also taken, in different positions, indicating movement. The Dinsdale 16 mm film of 1960, which has also been criticized as having an interpretation that has been greatly expanded from the original JARIC report, and numerous sonar contacts.

Answer 7

No, because you would think that Loch Ness is a dinosaur and all the huge ones became extinct. There's no way that the lake could hold something that huge and mosterous without some scuba diver seeing it. You would think that they would easily see it. It's just another way for the Town to gain money from all the Tourists!!! The only people that actually see this fictional "beast" must be a drug addict, a drunk or some person bullshitting. Plus wouldn't you think that it would come completely out of the Lake eventually!!! That only makes sense to me!!!

Answer 8

The "Loch Ness Monster" was actually a breeding population of around 15-20 surviving Pleosteine creatures undisturbed for thousands and thousands of years in the Loch, but since their discovery in 1741, the Scots have been capturing them, slaughtering them, and processing their meat into a dish they call "the haggis". The last one (we think) was killed in 1976 during a "research" trip. I was on that boat. She made a doleful sound as she succumbed, she did!
