EDINBURGH, Scotland The Loch Ness monster is back and there's video. A man has captured what Nessie watchers say is possible footage of the supposed mythical creature beneath Scotland's most mysterious lake.

"I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this jet black thing, about 45 feet long, moving fairly fast in the water," said Gordon Holmes, the 55-year-old a lab technician from Shipley, Yorkshire, who took the video Saturday.

Nessie watcher and marine biologist Adrian Shine viewed the video and hoped to properly analyze it in the coming months.

CGI must be helping out with the stuff of legends.

I remember a news story years ago about the guy who originally said he saw Nessie confessing on his death bed that it was all a hoax. The story was quickly squashed.

I guess Scotland needs the tourist dollars.

I got it to play at the site...

Looks like a wave and shadows to me, but it’ll be good for tourism ;~)

Gee, Rosie O’Donnell leaves her gig at The View, and almost immediately there are Loch Ness monster sightings. Coincidence? I don’t think so...

It works here but I can’t believe that they call this “evidence”:

Yeah, I just saw the Loch Ness the other day...I think it was throwing a Toyota Truck into the water or so the commercial said.

Not that hard to believe, when you see the footage of the prehistoric shark found off of Japan’s coast. Probably some huge elusive eel-like creature.

“The guy who originally saw Nessie”?

A monk claimed to see a lake monster in the seventh century. Modern sightings began to be recorded in the 1930s, and there have been over 4,000 sightings.

Let’s hope it’s not another Surgeon photo.

I’m glad that guy confessed it was a hoax. Let’s not forget the confession from the guy in the Bigfoot suit, either. Without those confessions we’d still be wondering.

I fail to see what's so great about it. Just looked like a little dot on the surface to me.
