Camera set up to catch Loch Ness Monster unearthed
-
So the numbering on the film is irrelevant then?
Likely, yes.
-
You’re joking right?
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!
-
No footage of Nessie will ever be found … because in 1991 the dude … admitted that it was a hoax.
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.
-
1991? I took a fake photo of Nessie in 1984, and I’m certain I wasn’t the first.
The picture he took was from the 60's; he just confessed it was bullshit in 91.

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 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.

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.
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.

Bitching out on naming the ship Boaty McBoatface is the real reason Brexit happened.

I was hoping for something more like this:
Personally I'm betting on Nessie having camouflage skills like an octopus, and instead of squirting ink they can create the equivalent of an underwater dust cloud. That would absolutely explain these photos.

You can't call a ship a boat. Shippy McShipface would've been a different topic. Or maybe Chippy McShipface?

You're right. I forgot about that. It was glorious.
-
Isn’t it best practice to develop film as soon as possible after taking a picture. Surely the undeveloped picture would have degraded after 55 years?
Technically yes, but in favourable condition the film can persist for pretty long time. People have developed films that had been sitting in a camera/cartridge for literally a century and gotten decent results.

I had that exact same camera when I was a kid. My favourite part was putting in new flash cubes. Dude when the Kodak Disc came out we were wetting our pants, that thing had INFINITE FLASH
It's the camera my mom used, too. It was super popular, it seems like every family had one.
Taking pictures was such a different experience in those days, knowing you only had as many pictures as was on the roll (like 20 I think it's what we bought), and you couldn't see how they came out until you had them developed.

There are humans that are named after other animals (Bear Grylls, Tony Hawk, Michael J Fox). We absolutely could have called it Boaty McBoatface.

And it knew to react to an unmoving camera how? It just perfectly puts out its camouflage cloud every time it passes a camera? You realize that makes zero sense, right?
