Camera set up to catch Loch Ness Monster unearthed
-
An underwater camera set up 55 years ago to try and photograph the Loch Ness Monster has been found by accident by a robot submarine.
The ocean-going yellow sub - called Boaty McBoatface - was being put through trials when its propeller snagged the mooring for the 1970s camera system.
It is believed it was lowered 180m (591ft) below the loch's surface by the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau, a group set up in the 1960s to uncover the existence of Nessie in the waters.
No footage of Nessie has been found on the camera, but one of the submarine's engineers was able to develop a few images of the loch's murky waters.
Shouldn't it be unwatered? :^)

here's the images
I was hoping for something more like this:
-
What makes you think there are more? The cameras were only ever rigged to take four photographs max
You’re joking right?
-
here's the images
True hero.

No footage of Nessie will ever be found or captured, because in 1991 the dude who started the damn rumor with that one famous photo admitted that it was a hoax. Why people still continue to search for the monster baffles me.
1991? I took a fake photo of Nessie in 1984, and I’m certain I wasn’t the first.

They were trying to catch her in a loving embrace with her cousin, the Ogopogo.
That was always a very long distance relationship.
I’ve got pictures of both of them though

They used a flash that was single-use. When the flash triggered, it burned out and the mechanism rotated. A cube has 4 sides.

I'm here to do two things: not read articles, and make ignorant comments based on not reading articles
and I'm almost out of articles to not read
You can always write your own contributions!

So the numbering on the film is irrelevant then?

No footage of Nessie will ever be found … because in 1991 the dude … admitted that it was a hoax.

Likely, yes.

No joke! Lots of details in the article, it’s worth a look. The cameras were also rigged via tripwire to hopefully only activate when Nessie physically disturbed them!

Yeah, but Nessie has been folklore for longer than such an animal could possibly have lived. I have great great great great grandparents from the area, and it was older than them. People have been faking photographs since the photograph was invented. Before that people painted pictures or did charcoal sketches.

When was the off? Motherfucker has been daily news, even during biden's term. Fucking news can't stand a day with out him. He was right about at least one thing: he's good for ratings.
I'm so fucking tired
After he lost, he disappeared from the news cycle for quite a while. It was wonderful.

The picture he took was from the 60's; he just confessed it was bullshit in 91.

Oh there will be grist for the mill, whether they “found” anything or not.

Shouldn't that be unloched?
-
Kind of puts a pin in Nessie then, if we can find a small camera lost 55 years ago but not a giant animal.
Dunno about found. I think that requires intent. This is a happy little accident

You damn fools. You better have tree fiddy ready for the rest of your lives.

Same reason people think the earth is flat, the moon landing was a hoax, and that vaccines cause autism?
A lack of critical thinking skills, and general stupidity.
