First Photographic Evidence of Nessie Turns 75.
0 comments Posted by Thinking In Vain at 11/13/2008 01:36:00 PMThe headline of the article actually says Nessie mystery turns 75, but I had to read St. Columba's biography in Early Irish and British history. If I remember correctly he banished the monster and blessed the lake - guess that didn't work. :pWhile not a famous as the (fake) Surgeon's photo, this would be the first photograph of "Nessie." It was taken November 12, 1933.
And in 75 years? We've come this far.
I still seem to have my childhood wonder attached to cryptos and ghosts and the like. One of these days! Coz, hey, you never know. :)
BBC article here.
I don't think anyone would be fooled by this, especially with the URL at the end.
A new YouTube video is promoting a movie called "The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep." I'm not sure this movie interests me, and I love that sort of stuff. I've also never heard Nessie called a water horse... but maybe I dosed off during a program.
Anyway watch the video - found via Cryptomundo and one clever commenter notes that "at the end of the breaching action, the tail of the well known organism that the pleisasaur was edited onto… [is] an Orca. If this were done better, we would never have seen the tail."
But what better way to promote a movie then by faking some new footage? If they'd really wanted to make people send this video to all their friends and go to the website - they shouldn't have gone so over the top.
