Loch Ness monster on Google Earth? LOL!

[Omaroo]

Fire up Google Earth and fly to "Loch Ness, United Kingdom" and then go to Lat: 57° 12' 51.82" N, Long: 4° 34" 14.33" W

:shrug:

:lol:

It's in the news too. Looks like boat, but it'd have tenticles...

Image - Google Earth with the object circled. I've included some land mass to give it scale - and at this scale you'd probably expect to see some deck detail if it were a boat. I'm convinced! I'm done! It's the real thing - finally! :scared:

[seanliddelow]

I think its a boat
Since when was nessie white?

[Omaroo]

Why couldn't it be? When was the last time you saw one? :lol:

I'm going to take this as irrefutable proof! Go Nessie!!!



Next... fairies in my garden..... hmmmm... got to love Google Earth.

[renormalised]

It's actually Nessie's uncle, Jock:P:D:D:D

He's from the Firth of Forth (or is that the "Forth" of Fifth???):P:D:D

[Omaroo]

Uncky Jock! LOL! :lol:

[Darth Wader]

Maybe I should search the apple isle for Tasmanian Tigers ;)

[renormalised]

I would, you might spot one:P:D:D

[Baron von Richthofen]

Its a boat

[Terry B]

Or drop bears.:lol:

[Baron von Richthofen]

I've seen a drop bear, a koala was pushed out of a
tree
Ha Ha Ha:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Omaroo]

You sound very sure of that. :whistle: Not sure how many elliptical boats I've ever seen...

[renormalised]

What I want to know is what are those other objects the red circle bisects?? They look similar, but slightly deeper down:D

[toryglen-boy]

in Scotland mate, i have seen loads of them, and on Loch Lomond and Loch Ness, been there many times.


:thumbsup:

[renormalised]

So, you know Nessie's uncle, Jock Campbell Monster:P:D:D

He likes a wee snoot o' the whisky:P:D:D

No one dares asks what's up his kilt!!!!:P:D:D

[dpastern]

It's a rowing boat (the tentacles are oars). Sculling.

Dave

[renormalised]

Yep, the good stuff:P:D:D

[toryglen-boy]

>sigh<

:screwy:





thats right mate, just the same as i thought everyone here walked about with corks hanging from thier hats, and throwing boomerangs ....






... not

;)

[renormalised]

We do!!!!:P:P:D:D

[Omaroo]

But this one has tentacles Duncan! :scared:

[Terry B]

One of these bears.:D

[toryglen-boy]

so it would appear !! :lol:

[FredSnerd]

I'm not usually given to believing things like this but, you know, I think this ones the real deal. This is the one, THIS IS IT!!! Man, who would have thought. The Loch Ness monster. Of all the worthy candidates out there just beggin for verification; UFOs, big foot, little foot, Heather Graham summoning me from the back bedroom, and it turns out to be Nessy thats not a figment of my imagination. Such a disappointment.

[AstralTraveller]

It's a boat and the tentacles are the foam from the wake. The other whitish bit might be a wave wipped up by the wind.

[tlgerdes]

I'm, with you Chris.

I see 4 flippers/legs, a body and a tail.

:eyepop::eyepop::eyepop::eyepop::ey epop::eyepop::eyepop::eyepop::eyepo p::eyepop:

[Ric]

It looks like a tadpole that has grown it's legs.

OMG it's the Loch Ness Frog. :scared:

[tlgerdes]

Quick, get Le Frogginator in there.:rofl:

[Barrykgerdes]

Kiljoy

[AstralTraveller]

Oh Barry, how could you be so cruel? :(

[toryglen-boy]

maybe you shoudl scour my homeland, in search of massive heards of Haggis, as they roam the plains

:P


i will go insearch of the fabled Aussie Razorback, i believe Wolf Creek is a good place to start


;)

[tbothy]

Duncan
Everyone knows that Haggis dont roam the plains, they are a hills creature hence why they have two long legs and two short legs for running around the hills and the only way too catch them is to get them to turn back on themselves, and they end up rolling down the hill into a net!

[renormalised]

Which species of haggis....the long furred or spotted??:P:D:D

[Benno85]

Or the rare Albino variety....:D

[stephenb]

Yep it's a boat, the epitical shape coming from the sligt angle of the light and the "tenticles" are the white wake behind. I'll go with what ever Duncan says, he's been there :thumbsup:

[tlgerdes]

Well Barry and I have been there as well, 1976-78. So what does our Nessy experience count for, how come Duncan is suddenly the expert, especially since he doesnt believe in Razorbacks as well.:screwy::screwy:

[Omaroo]

I'm now thinking that it may the killer Haggis - taken to the waves. Aaaarrgghhhhh!!!!!!

[tlgerdes]

Dissenter:mad2::mad2:

[Omaroo]

:sadeyes: I don't like tentacles...

[Jen]

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

[DavidU]

It's bagpipes being dragged backwards by the ocean going Haggis.
Disbelievers
Spotted Haggis ! LOL, they have been extinct for years

[renormalised]

Robby Burns got too much for them!!!!:P:D:D

[Diamond Rose]

If you changed it to a more lateral view, you can see that whatever it is, it is submerged.

I'm convinced.

[Omaroo]

Didn't think of changing the angle at the time.... fantastic! There you go! Proof! An answer now required - overgrown underwater Haggis.... or Nessie? Doesn't look like a boat with tentacles to me! :D

[AstralTraveller]

So what are the green and purple stripes across the lake about? Is Nessie a suffragette?

[Ric]

Ah ha, yet more proof of the Loch Ness Frog.

Cheers

[Omaroo]

hehe... all good in theory - but.

All photos taken by Google are from overhead. Existing topographic map elevation data is used to calculate and show height as displayed in Google Earth. Even if a boat were 50 metres high, Google Earth would display it as flat because topographically a lake (or loch) is, well, flat and would not trigger a reason for the application to show elevation, and the boat is a temporary feature probably not contained on a map....

I still reckon it's an aquatic Haggis though. :thumbsup:

[AstralTraveller]

And they reckon I'm a killjoy.

[Omaroo]

No - all I said is that it could have height, and that because it showed as flat it isn't necessarily true. I still maintain that it is unearthly in origin and must therefore be a Haggis.

[Ric]

It's Ethel the Aardvark going quantity surveying.

[toryglen-boy]

because Duncan was there a matter of weeks ago, and not over a quarter of a century ago :whistle:

And anyway? who says i dont belive in razorbacks? this is Australia, where any terrifying animal, can quite easily be a stark reality.

:D

[tlgerdes]

Maybe the mysterious object is actually Duncan doing backstroke down Lock Ness on his holiday? The sun reflecting off his highly untanned body? :shrug:

[Octane]

lmfao Trevor, gold.

:D

Having spent most of the first twenty years of my life on boats, guess what I'm going to say that's the wash of. If I spent enough time could probably give you make, displacement (guess 4-5 tonnes), hull type (its deep vee), speed (5-6 knots), the list goes on.

How did any newsie ever publish this as Nessie, unless she's onboard driving it!

[renormalised]

She is:P:D:D

[toetoe]

I'm sure Google have the latest version of Photo Shop.
