Based on its movement and proportions, I estimate it was either the top of Nessie (her back) or the side, suggesting that she may have been emerging at a 45 degree angle. <BR><br \/>\n\u201cShe came about two feet out of the water and her exposed portion was about five to 10 feet in length, suggesting it was just her very top. She was about 15 feet from the boat I was on. Nessie hovered for about five seconds, then dipped back into the water. Her body emerged against the chop of the surf, but appeared clearly defined against the waves, leading me to believe it wasn\u2019t just the current.\u201d<BR><br \/>\nTony also produced a sketch of the sighting, estimating the visible mass to measure between five and 10 feet across. <BR><br \/>\nHis account was later reposted by the Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings Register.<BR><br \/>\nEoin reported the second \u201csighting\u201d after reviewing webcam footage.<BR><br \/>\nHe said he saw an object showing \u201cmysterious movement and shape\u201d which \u201cbroke the surface four times, rose and dipped\u201d while travelling against the current at about 5.20pm. <BR><br \/>\nThe Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings Register said the object was seen roughly 200 yards from the pier, adding no vessels were visible before or after the sighting.<BR><br \/>\nIt added weather conditions at the time were cloudy with only a slight ripple on the surface, noting the supposed object\u2019s movement appeared to go against the prevailing current in the area.<BR><br \/>\nIn 2024, Alan McKenna, founder of Loch Ness Exploration, said \u201cstanding waves\u201d \u2013 a natural phenomenon \u2013 could explain some sightings, adding they may be mistaken for \u201chumps\u201d above the surface.<BR><br \/>\nThe Loch Ness Monster, or &#8220;Nessie,&#8221; is a mythical creature in Scottish folklore said to inhabit Loch Ness, a large freshwater lake near Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. <BR><br \/>\nThe loch is over 700 feet deep and located about three hours north of Edinburgh. <BR><br \/>\nDespite countless searches, its existence is unproven and considered a myth by scientists<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2026-04-17 12:01:36 The Loch Ness Monster has been \u201cspotted\u201d two more times within a matter of days.
