Could this be the Loch Ness Monster?

By Hannah Wood, Mirror.co.uk 2/07/2008

New video footage has emerged of a potential sighting of dinosaur-like creature the Loch Ness Monster.

David Garside and his dad Graham were on holiday in Scotland in April when they believe the creature of legend appeared to them.

During a tourist boat trip on the loch, they spotted something strange in the distance so zoomed in with their video camera to get a better look.

David, 31, said: “I couldn’t really see what it was but I thought it looked sort of like a crocodile’s back or something. I was videotaping the boat tour though so I used my zoom lens to get a closer look and luckily I caught it on camera.

Using the latest water screen technology, a crew of experts recreated a scene from the magical family film The Water Horse: Legend Of The Deep to provide Loch Ness Monster fans with an incredible, indelible visual confirmation of a much-loved legend.

The event was captured to celebrate the DVD and Blu-ray release of The Water Horse: Legend Of The Deep on 30th June 2008. . Details of how to download video footage of this incredible event are below.

Professor Terry Stevens of Destination Loch Ness, the destination management organisation for the area has been very supportive of the creative activity, saying:

“It is hoped that global awareness of Loch Ness generated by The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep will help support the community in their bid to achieve World Heritage status, based on its outstanding natural scenery and extraordinary cultural history and of course the infamy of the Monster.”

The Water Horse Legend Of The Deep is available on DVD and Blu-ray from 30^th June, 2008.
