About Loch Ness Monster
The Loch Ness Monster, known affectionately as Nessie, is a mythical creature in Scottish folklore that is said to inhabit Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. It is often described as large, long-necked, and with one or more humps protruding from the water. Popular interest and belief in the creature has varied since it was brought to worldwide attention in 1933. Evidence of its existence is anecdotal, with a number of disputed photographs and sonar readings.

There was a theory that maybe, just maybe, a very big eel might be the Loch Ness Monster, like a six metre long eel. There was a study, a sort of trawl of the DNA in the water, and it found huge amounts of eel DNA.

That's even cooler, though, if this was found in Gloucestershire and a fear. Why is no... Instead of saying, oh, it's a great crazy, crazy magical cow, why has this elephant been there? Maybe that's what they meant by a giant cow. Because you know that the initial photo taken in 1933 of the Loch Ness Monster, the very famous photo, they think that that's an elephant. Oh.

You're saying that maybe she only needs to eat once a century? No, I'm saying she doesn't exist. Every year, William Hill, the Buckees, they do an actual... competition. It's a photo competition where they award money to the winner who's provided the best photographic evidence of Lochness Monster.

You'll have to go back to episode number seven to find out what it was. Dan, can you give us another one? Yep, this one is for Jacob. The fact is that 2013 was the first. first year since 1933 that there hasn't been a sighting of the Loch Ness Monster. Oh, do you know what's happened since then? There's been plenty of sightings. Interestingly, it was the very nature of releasing a headline like that, which this was in the papers at the time.

Suddenly, everyone had a phone and cameras got really good. and then they stopped being sightings and then Photoshop was invented and suddenly there were loads of sightings again. It's been tough. There is a theory when you can't pass off a leaf floating on the water. There is a theory that what if it's not that those photos were always blurry but what if say the Loch Ness Monster and Bigfoot themselves are blurry? That's one of the counter arguments to that. It's a devastating counter argument.
