2. For centuries people have been wondering what the monster that has been seen in Lake Loch Ness or if its just a myth. Jarred V.

3.  Since 565 A.D. people have been wondering if there really is a monster hanging around the lake.  It is located in lake Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands.

4. More Background of Nessie  This monster is thought to be a long living Plesiosaurs.  The first recorded sighting of Nessie was in 565 A.D. when it is said that it bumped into the St. Columba.  Arthur Grant was motorcycling when he saw he claimed to see it and, R.K. Wilson’s photo (surgeon’s photo) was proven fake. Many more stories are told.

5.  One witness is W. Arthur Grant who in 1934 was motor cycling when he saw Nessie on the side of the loch and then it disappeared.  A kind of crazy theory is that Nessie is a long living prehistoric plesiosaurs that survived though all the years.

6. Scientific Explanation  One of the ways skeptics believe that people saw an elephant from the traveling circus that was taking a swim. There are many other explanations.  The elephant could have had its trunk in the air and its back showing.  One photo (the surgeons photo) was proven a hoax when the man that helped build the platform in the picture admitted it.

7.  I believe that Nessie is not real and just a myth.  There is much more evidence that Nessie is not real than evidence that it is.  I agree with this side because there are other things that the witnesses could have seen like bird wakes, eels, elephants, seals, trees, resident animals, and many more.
