If you're one of those Loch Ness monster fans or debunkers who has been waiting for over a year while a team of DNA researchers from New Zealand analyzed water samples taken from across the loch in an effort to identify all of the creatures in it and - by process of elimination - find or disprove the alleged cryptid ... your wait is over! Or is it?
"We've tested each one of the main monster hypotheses and three of them we can probably say aren't right and one of them might be." ...
"What we'll have achieved is what we set out to do, which is document the biodiversity of Loch Ness in June 2018 is some level of detail." ...
"We'll never disprove that there's a monster, as we said at the beginning. If we find no evidence of the monster, that doesn't prove anything. All we can do is describe what we've found."

A schoolgirl on holiday with her parents has taken 'the best picture of the Loch Ness Monster in years' after snapping the mythical creature with her iPhone. Charlotte Robinson from Leeds, who was staying at Loch Ness Highland Lodges in Invermoriston, was stunned when it popped up 50 feet from shore. 'Nessie' surfaced for about a minute before re-surfacing about ten feet further away some seven minutes later, says Miss Robinson, who had been on holiday for less than a day when she made the sighting. Miss Robinson was on holiday with parents Kat, 41, a business intelligence data analyst, and father Dave, 52, a factory worker. Ironically Mr and Mrs Robinson had stayed at the same holiday centre 16 years ago, but had not been back since. It was at around 7pm last Friday when Miss Robinson saw the creature and captured it on her smartphone. 'There was something in the water about 50 feet from the shore. I took a photo. It had a neck and head was in the shape of a hook,' said Miss Robinson. 'I just took what I saw. It was black - I just don't know how far it was out of the water. I'm not good at judging distances. 'But after about a minute it disappeared and then came back up again in a different place. It was up for less than a minute the second time. I kinda believed in Nessie, but I wanted to see the proof. I always imagined her as having a long neck and flippers. 'I have seen something but I'm not sure what. ' Mrs Robinson added: 'Charlotte said she had taken a photo of a creature in the loch and I said 'right, sure you have!' For weeks she's been going on about seeing the Loch Ness Monster. 'But when I saw the picture, I couldn't believe it. Something's there. With all the sightings over the years there must be something in the loch. ' Nessie expert Steve Feltham - who has dedicated his life to solving the mystery of the Loch Ness Monster for the past 27 years - was astonished by the image. 'I am totally excited by this photograph - it is the best of 'Nessie' in years,' said Mr Feltham, 55, who is recognised by the Guinness Book of Records for the longest continuous monster hunting vigil of Loch Ness. 'There is clearly a solid object in it and it is relatively clear. It warrants further study. 'There may be a mundane explanation such as a seal, but I have not heard of a seal in the loch this year. For my money it is larger than a seal or an ottter. It is a fantastic picture by Charlotte. ' Mr Feltham, who lives on the shores of Loch Ness at Dores, added: 'This is just the image we have been waiting for - for years. Congratulations Charlotte. I am totally excited by it. ' There have been four official sightings this year of the Loch Ness Monster. The last previous glimpse of Nessie occurred on August 5 at 9. 38am when the family, regular visitors to the area, were on holiday - also from Leeds. It has now been accepted by the Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings' Register.

That movie was on a few days ago. Not quite as good as I remembered but still had it’s moments.
“About fifty of them. What would you do? They kept attacking my Cousins”. “Just break the wrist and walk away”.
One of my favorite movies.
You got like three feet of air that time.
The absence of evidence is just evidence of a coverup. Thought you knew.
Ok I thought that was funny. :)
...said Miss Robinson. ‘I just took what I saw. It was black - I just don’t know how far it was out of the water. I’m not good at judging distances. ‘.
