    my favorite was when Cousteau visited Loch ness. They set up a motion activated camera someplace and ended up getting a picture of a huge fin passing by the camera.

    The long neck turtle is definately possible. The plesiosaur design was very successful so it makes sense that nature may have resused the design in turtles.

      It's not a turtle.
      It's not a sturgeon.
      It's not a wide bodied eel
      It's not a Greenland shark
      It's a tanystropheus
      And pleasiosaur

      @@anonymousgoblin792 Unless there's some sort of "instant dimensional shifting" going on where these things are only in these areas for brief moments, I think most of these lake cryptids are folklore or misidentification. If it was real and some sort of ancient animal or a prehistoric marine reptile like a Plesiosaur, etc. it would be long known about by now and there'd be clear videos or images of these things being encountered by boaters, fishers, and photographers.

    There used to be a 2005 video of a creature in Champlain that was shot by 2 fishermen.
    It was on TH-cam for a while and hosted by an ABC News website but it's gone everywhere I think.
    When I had a lower-rez monitor, it was very easy to see some details but you never saw the entire creature so there is a question still if they filmed a known animal (it sure didn't look like an oarfish to sturgeon to me) or something unusual/unknown.
    That was probably the best creature video I've seen.
    The other videos are jokes...
    Even with the 2005 video, there's an ambiguity but it did look like it has a head with turned to the side with one eye, a slit for a mouth, and the head was attached to a long neck. The implication was there was a HUGE body at the end of that neck but that body never appeared onscreen (which leads to the possibility this is a fish/eel). The only other thing that appeared in the video was what looked like a fin but it could have been a tail, too, if this were a fish curled under the boat the video was shot from.

      I remember it. The was also one from the nineties that got me interested in Champ. Taken by the wife of a couple out pleasure boating. It comes out of the water as she is randomly filming and she's excited but the husband is screaming and cursing and accelerating while she's telling him to wait. The head and neck were clear for a moment, but then it got choppy because the husband freaks out and guns the engine.

      Best cryptid footage of ANYTHING I've ever seen shot. This IS something I don't know. It's not a known fish, dolphin, etc. Definitely NOT a sturgeon.

    My guess is an unstudied, maybe prehistoric?, species of giant snake neck turtle. I saw a regular sized specimen and it looked just like a tiny plesiosaur. If I didn’t know about these unique turtles then I’d have sworn there was a mini-plesiosaur living in a man-made pond down here in Louisiana. I’ve read plesiosaurs couldn’t lift their necks high (imagine the silhouette of a swan) like the pics show, but a giant snake neck turtle could.

      Also, Mansi is not reliable. She’s changed her story significantly over the decades. In any case, whatever it was she photographed, it doesn’t prove anything. It doesn’t even look like a living animal. Like all the other lake monster photos of shape and shadow without any visible detail, the photo is scientifically useless.

    A log or tree trunk floating by currents? What a crock...a log or tree trunk would not be submerged, then float on the surface for a short time, then go back under and stay under....in a lake where the water doesnt have a current anywhere strong enough...its sad when people have sold their soul in order to help deceive the public. Any person with common sense and has been around rivers or lakes knows that when the log/trunk has rotted to the point it will float, it stays afloat until it gets beached. I say those who have any kind of degrees or are "experts" should put that up if they are so sure. I say thise people should publicly be stripped of whatever title they have....
