I've never heard of it. Could you go into detail? Maybe a link? I kind of see how this is going though. I don't believe in these kind of things because theres no evidence to support it. Yea, you can say hat BigFoot exists, but if I dont see any evidence, its lame.

Yep it doesn't exist. A monster like that would have shown up by now if its been living in that lake for so long. Especially if its in a lake. 0.o

There's even a new video on Youtube :O

I can't really believe Nessy exists :P There must be so much equipment monitoring that lake to see if there is anything living in it. Also how could one creature have lived so long? They should put submarine a nuclear submarine into the lake to finally give us an answer.

I really dunno if it exists or not. I would like to say it does, but you think that it would be dead or caught by now so........this disscusion goes for any animals like this, BigFoot, ha, ET.:lol: Anything else you can think of.....

YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF THE LOCH NESS MONSTER? WTF :lmao:

I dont think its real. :P If it was they would have found it by now.

I watched a Discovery Channel program on the Loch Ness monster. They proved with science that she most likely wasn't real. (Of course I saw this about 3 years ago and can't remember anything. ><)

Bullshit. If the Loch Ness stayed up long enough to be filmed, why did no one capture it?

I'm not sure if it's real or not. One minute there are facts that can make it seem real, and then the next minute it seems like a total fake. I've seen shows that have shown it to be real, but then again who knows. This legend has been around for so long that you would have to think how could it possibly be able to survive for such a long period of time without anyone catching really good footage of the Loch Ness Monster.

I remember watching something on a group of people who claimed to have discovered the corpes of a Nessie-like monster in the ocean, but they were idiots and decided to eat it rather than show it off. They still have the bones though, and it looks kinda real. A bit small though, 3 meters long at best.

Ugh, they actually ate the corpse? :blink: Well, if that's true then that's something fact like to the rumors of the Loch Ness Monster. I guess no one will ever figure out if it's something real or not.

I only think they ate the corpes. I'm not really sure what they did with it. I personally think that it was a hoax.

Well I dont know. I kinda do believe in it but the evidence is lame.

Laugh. Out loud.

The habitat itself could not sustain a monster that big. A creature of such proportions would screw over the ecosystem so badly that it would eventually kill itself.

But assuming that the size itself were part of actual TRUE sightings and not just hoaxes or mistakening logs for a monster, the only two really not-so mundane (and least plausible) explanations are:
a) the plesiosaur
b) kelpie
So you can choose between a sizable dinosaur that somehow survived in a lake for all these years, or a mythological creature... or just assume that both are too implausible.

Other explanations are a lot more plausible and would suggest some sort of exaggeration in size. They also suggest that -- NO, there is no plesiosaurus like creature living in the waters of one of Scotland's lakes.

Eh, sorry, Nessie. Same applies to you, Ogopogo.

Or it could be an undiscovered breed of long necked seals, since some people reported seeing it on land, claiming it looked like a seal.

btw, how does Nessie fall under Serious Discussion?

Well, since we were talking about life on other planets, I thought we should disscuss some of the fabled creatures that live on earth. Nessie, Bigfoot, Etc.

YOU HAVE TO WATCH THAT. My dad showed me it awhile ago, unabridged, and not on youtube. Apparently, it's 100% real. Not for the faint of heart.

Read after you watch.
If you wonder what they're saying, they basically talk about stuff, then pick up the girl. She says she died 2 years ago, they don't believe her, she points to the place where she says she died, and...
Apparently the kids, except for one, were found dead in the car the following day.

Then watch that. Good follow up, eh?

After some research, it appears that the authenticity of the video is debatable. Every site seems to have a different opinion.

Ther is something called Mothman too. Its some creepy shit.

I believe I said not including mundane explanations.
Still, an undiscovered breed of long necked seals is still pretty implausible to me. Wouldn't they have been found by now? Not even Nessie can escape radar.

Alphonse

Jun 22 2007, 02:39 AM

I think its a a dino. (Spanish but I maid the word short). A lot of prehistoric animals have been found so yeah.

Devious

Jun 22 2007, 02:59 AM

Yeah, but nothing nearly as big as nessie. Oh come on, long-necked seals aren't THAT implausible. Not like all 250,000,000,000,000 tons of matter the earth is made up of disappearing at the same time.

Alphonse

Jun 22 2007, 03:01 AM

I dont know. Until we get solid prove im going to be a 100% believer.

Devious

You can't really "soilidly" disprove anything, you know. Mainly because of religion and stuff.

Alphonse

I didnt know that. What does religioin have to do with this?

Cloud Rulez, Nessie being a pleiosaur (dinosaur) is TERRIBLY implausible thanks to reasons I've already stated. Something that big could not be supported by such a lake. It also probably would've been found by now. A prehistoric fish or something would work since I'm sure it could somehow coexist with the rest of the ecosystem... but a dinosaur?

And Jason, maybe if this were a larger body of water, I'd be less reluctant to say that it's just a long-necked seal, but don't you think it would've be detected in a lake already? :/
Maybe it's a cyborg seal with super-awesome cloaking abilities. =/ At least it's more plausible (count how many times we've said that so far) than pleiosaurs. Besides, it's not even a theory I believe in. I still think Nessie is a particularily elusive chunk of driftwood.

Rikku

Jun 28 2007, 04:55 PM

Fine, fine. Maybe it's a long-necked seal, a sneaky piece of driftwood, and maybe it's a hoax. Nessie can exist in that sense (actually having a mundane explanation), but I think it's pretty implausible for her to be a pleiosaur or an actual being as big as its said to be.

Devious

What if it's an alien? :crazy:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nessie

its a total fake. just look at the waves in the water. if it were bigger, then the waves would look SMALLER not bigger. its a closeup, which means its brobably some udon noodles, with some dough for a head attached to a potato (glued VERRY carefully)

ya.. he can... the Loch Ness is a 'lake' with peat, a type of fossil fuel like oil, used in poor societies of long ago. it has large concentrations of it in this loch, which limits the amount of radar it can give off. sorry rikku. BUT... i still do NOT think that this 'monster' exists. it is highly unlikely, as my father says, that a 40 million year old pleisiosaur can have survived that long. excluding coelocanths

Jul 03 2007, 03:52 PM

I agree with Cathryn. It's probably some old demented looking swan. See I think people just want to believe in it, so when they see something pop up in the water they auotmatically asume that it's Nessie.

Cathryn

Jul 03 2007, 04:09 PM

Yup
(yea sorry i got rid of that crap i wrote XD)
The picture was more fitting :cunning:

Oh well. You did say it before, so it doesn't really matter. That picture does fit much better though. :rolleyes:

Coelecanths are really cool. Makes you wonder how much other unknown crap is in the Ocean.:nod:

about the documentary i said about but deleted XD
They scanned the width of the loch ness while running over it.
Nothing came up Lol. So yea. :cunning:

LOL i guess if you can call it 'unknown crap' it may not sound so appealing. but.. then again coelacanths (how ever the f*** you spell it) are, most likely the oldest living species on the planet. of fish. saltwater. well maybe not if they dated how old those tube worm things are at those ventilation pipes. sorry... im kind of a nerd

Theres proof :)

i believe you, but that sort of stuff always happens... they say, oh i got proof but i deleted it... like that carcass of the pleisiosaur that those morons ATE.. i mean who eats corpses of prehistoric animals from scotland's, loch ness?!?! give me a break man, jeez

Nooo. i posted like a sentence on that documentary thing but changed it all for the brontosuarus picture >_<
