Probably the most sighting of all of the other sightings on Nessie is by Dr Robert Kenneth Wilson, it was famously known as the "surgeon's photograph".There was that famous fuzzy photo showing its long neck rising out of the waters of Loch Ness. Everybody thought that the photo was genuine, it was taken by a Pillar of the Community, the London medical doctor and ex-military man, but in 2001 the doctor’s friend the ex-military man, claimed the picture to be a hoax, but Dr Wilson has stuck to his story until his death in 2001. It really was a little toy submarine that had a little stick attached that makes it look like Loch Ness.

Loch Ness Monster Facts
Nessie is usually described as having a small head, long neck, broad body, four flippers and a long tail. The scientific name for the Loch Ness Monster is a plesiosaur, which is a type of carnivorous aquatic, usually marine, reptile. The Loch Ness Monster cannot be a mammal as it does not have to breathe air. If it needed to surface in order to breath air it would most probably have been seen by many before now.Nessie is the most famous cryptid in the world. The word 'cryptid' is used in cryptozoology and refers to a hidden creature or living creature which might exist. This should not be confused with unreal or mythical creatures. For a beast to qualify as a cyrptid there needs to be some form of evidence of existence. Loch Ness is one of a group of interconnected lochs that are in the area of Scotland known as the Great Glen ("Glen Mor"). There are other lochs, Loch Lochy and Loch Oich. Lake Loch the largest fresh water body in Britain, it is over twenty two miles in length and over a mile and a half at its widest, total surface area is approximately 21 square miles. Loch Ness is also deep and goes down almost 800 feet, it has been estimated that the loch is large enough to hold the entire population of the world ten times over.

Andrew Bain Sighting
There is a fairly recent sighting of the Loch Ness monster it happend on August 5,2001 where a man named Andrew Bain from Aberdeen was sitting at Fort Augustus and was watching the lake around 9pm when he saw a large black form rise from the warter and remain visible for around 5 seconds, then a smaller black hump then appeared close to the first before disappearing back into the Loch. This is not the only sighting from Fort Augusus there was one a year before that on September 4, 2000 man saw two humps in the water close to Cherry Island at the South end of the loch.

The Master Mariner Sighting
On Friday 9th September 2005 "A retired Master Mariner was cruising just south of Urquhart Bay in a Caley Cruisers' boat at a speed of nine knots when it was overtaken by an unknown object which came between them and the south shore. The sighting lasted several minutes and the object only disappeared as the boat moved towards it. A regular boat user on the loch, the captain said that there was no rational explanation for the object, which was unlike anything any of the boat's occupants had seen before". This one was one of the more detailed sightings in awhile the others are kinda I saw a hump in the water across the lake. This one also is one of the only ones that is seen the Loch Ness up close, a lot of them a from far and never hear on up close. This one is special because of that not many are like this at all.

The Loch Ness
Legend has it that a sea monster aka "Loch Ness" Lives in Lake Loch and roams the deep of the lake, the legend has cause a lot of media attention and supposedly has been seen by many like one man.
The Loch Ness was spotted by a man named Alex Campbell, a water bailiff and the man in charge of regulating salmon fishing in the Loch seen the Loch Ness 18 times on different occasions. He saw it upsurge out of water right in front of the canal entrance, Campbell described the creature as having "a long, tapering neck, about 6 feet long, and a smallish head with a serpentine look about it, and a huge hump behind..." Campbell estimated the length of the "monster" to be about thirty feet. No sightings have been seen since 2009. This monster has made Lake Loch Ness crazy with tourists and many people waiting to see it or some even to scam it. So believe or not that's what makes it a great mystery
