After seeing a special on the discovery channel about the sightings of mythological creatures, I've become very interested in them, the four i'm most interested in are: Nessie, Champ, Bigfoot, and the Yeti For those of you who don't know what the Lochness Monster is, read this brief description: [QUOTE=Wikipedia]The Loch Ness Monster is an alleged creature, identified neither as to family or species, but claimed to inhabit Scotland's Loch Ness. The Loch Ness Monster is one of the best-known animals studied by cryptozoology. Popular belief and interest in the animal have waxed and waned over the years since the animal came to the world's attention in 1933. Evidence of its existence is largely anecdotal, with minimal, and much disputed, photographic material and sonar readings: there has not been any physical evidence (skeletal remains, capture of a live animal, definitive tissue samples or spoor) uncovered as of 2008.

Like the Loch Ness Monster, Champ is generally believed to be a plesiosaur, an extinct group of aquatic reptiles. A few people believe that the animal is a Tanystropheus, leading to Champ being given an unofficial scientific name, Champtanystropheus, although this theory has received little attention by the mainstream scientific community.

In northern Wisconsin, Lakota Indians know the creature by the name Chiye-tanka, a Lakota name for "Big Elder Brother". Bigfoot is sometimes described as a large, hairy bipedal hominoid, and some believe that this animal, or its close relatives, may be found around the world under different regional names, such as the Yeti of Tibet and Nepal, the Yeren of mainland China, and the Yowie of Australia. Bigfoot is one of the more famous examples of cryptozoology, a subject that the scientific community classifies as pseudoscience because of unreliable eyewitness accounts, lack of scientific and physical evidence, and over-reliance on confirmation rather than refutation. Most scientific experts on the matter consider the Bigfoot legend to be a combination of folklore and hoaxes.

The names Yeti and Meh-Teh are commonly used by the people indigenous to the region, and are part of their history and mythology. Nepalese have various names for Yeti like "Bonmanche" which means "wild man" or "Kanchanjunga rachyyas" which means "Kanchanjunga's demon."

I think some of the lesser known things are more interesting, like the silver goblin things that attacked a ranch. Freaky. Loch ness is possible, but probly bullshit. BF is unlikely, probably an ape, mor elikely bullshit. Champ is just the american loch ness monster, the yeti is just a cold bigfoot. That's mah opinion. ^^

Why do most of the pictures of the water monsters look like pieces of wood?

The surgeons photo was proven fake. I don't know about the other Nessie photos, and the only thing there that's real compelling is the Bigfoot video.

I have to say total bullshit about all those creatures except for the Loch Ness. I thought the big foot video was proven fake, but maybe I'm wrong. As for the Loch Ness, the water is very murky and extremely difficult to see anything, so nessie could be real or fake.

Some guys called the X-Testers show people how all these hoaxes work. People come to them with supernatural stuff that's happened to them, and the team has to replicate it, they hae to copy all footage and photos, replicate sounds and events, and 9/10 they can fake it.

pfft, if you are looking for scary monsters that ACTUALLY EXIST, try talking to marine biologists that do deep sea research.

I'm not sure if you're all aware of this, but it's easy to make a picture appear to be something it's not. I'm sure you've all seen movies with really good special effects. A picture is often worth quite a bit less than a thousand words. Edit: Dapperdan! You disappoint me. :notangel:

I find it sad how with today's technology, almost nothing (pictures, videos, sound recordings, etc) can ever be taken with full credibility as they are all prone to tampering. As for those mystery creatures, I'd like to call a bs on Big Foot and Yetti. As for nessie and champ, i will find it more plausible that such creatures might exist in our seas, but proper and scientific confirmation of their existence has to be done by our marine biologists.

Skunk apes aren't as cool as big foot, yetti, or the lockness monsters. However its existence is way more plausible. skunk ape terrorizing 3 girls =-O http://www.stompshoutscream.com/NewFiles/SkunkApe3girls_3.jpg
