Observers on a boat using acoustic equipment reported four unidentified “gloops” but then realised their recording device wasn’t plugged in.
Last night Bigfoot was in my back yard eating the grass like a goat. I forgot to document it but it really happened guys!
I can’t believe anybody still believes in Bigfoot. It’s so obviously just a Yeti in a gorilla suit.
Are you cereal?
I was at Buckingham Palace watching The Queen’s ghost welcome a diplomatic party of chupacabras from Jalisco. I didn’t even take my phone with me. I’m that stupid.

“Mildly infuriating” for… the crazies who think the Loch Ness Monster is real?
Certainly not for regular people, who understand that this is typical conspiracy theory “you had to be there” bullshit.
Mildly infuriating
that people still believe theres a loch ness monster
right? jesus h it’s the 21st century, come up with some new cryptids that fit the fucking times already. I want toxic mutants, nuclear alligators, at least come up with hilariously new lies about this shit. tell me solar power generation is breeding monster cave bats or something, fuck
Krieger at the controls?
This whole “Nessie” thing counts as mildly infuriating to me at this point. The whole loch ness monster thing was a fun thing to wonder about as child, but are people really taking it “seriously?” I’m not even sure if this article was written as a serious news story or not, it’s certainly light on substantial new evidence, but then it’s a BBC article not presented as satire - are we supposed to all be in on the tired joke or is there really something new and substantial there?
It’s a stunt to encourage tourism to the area. You don’t need to get upset about people having a bit of fun.
I don’t get upset about people having a bit of fun, but my personal opinion is that this joke is tired and there’s a standard for news stories.
I think the argument that is often made is that we have discovered so little of our oceans that it’s possible we haven’t seen all the different aquatic species there are. Not suggesting Nessie is real, just the overall thought process I feel the believers use.
Sure but Loch Ness is on the 3rd most populated island in the world, it’s comprehensively explored, there’s nothing newsworthy to say about it unless there was a vast oversight and that would be the head line, not the “monster”.
Also, the loch is only like 10,000 years old, so any ‘monster’ would have to be from the ocean.
There are sighting of sturgeon and other large fish that wandered into the loch which are likely candidates for misidentification.
First heard about this major new search a few weeks back, and was entirely unsurprised to hear that one of the main organisers was… the local Loch Ness Visitor Centre, who by no means have a vested interest in keeping this nonsense going…
Pretty sick of seeing the story given coverage by the BBC, the Guardian, etc, at a time when their resources would be better spent on proper news.
Light local news isn’t covered by the same team, let people enjoy things and have a little fun in life. It is silly but it’s not like every town has local legend about a mythical dinosaur living in it’s lake, why wish it dead.
I always just figure these sorts of claims are done with a wink and a nod as a sort of traditional joke.
Camera technology may have progressed to insanely high quality, but any picture of Nessie or Bigfoot will always be taken with a potato.
That’s convenient…
I swear I got a nice and clean shot of Nessie… but unfortunately my camera fell into the water… such a bummer!
Oh my goose! Me too! I’ve so many fantastic high-detail close-up photos of Nessie, like one where I reached into their mouth and put a fish in it. Sadly I can’t show them because I’ve never been to Scotland.
Were they “gloops” or was it asking for about $3.50?
God damnit Loch Ness monster, I ain’t gonna give you no tree fiddy!
I can’t fathom (heh) a single thing underwater that could account for a “gloop” sound. Ancient sea monster confirmed, at last!

I saw Bigfoot twice. Dropped my camera both times.
