Truly bad acting in the “set-up” not a chance this was a real situation.

Everyone has pretty much said what i was going to say. I don’t know how they do it over there, but I usually don’t play catch with a camcorder in one hand. It feels very staged. In addition, the video is so pixelated and it is so hard to see what they are looking at, that in the end this is simply not acceptable as evidence of anything other than a thousand things that could have been floating on the water’s surface.

It’s a moose, or as it’s called in Europe, an elk (alces, at any rate). I’ve seen this before. The typical palmate antlers for a relatively young male. It looks like it’s still in velvet, late spring, early summer, and that would jive nicely with the fact that our two guys playing out for a bit of a barbeque at the lake cottage and are simply taking advantage of the long daylight following the sun-starved months of winter they’d just come through. Baseball? Rounders? Just plain catch…the pitcher is holding a video camera and so I can believe the catch would be off the target.

Having spent an even weirder than normal period of my life in that part of the world, I know from personal experience that when you haven’t got access to a telly, kids’ games can suddenly seem deeply engrossing; and as for playing such games in the Norwegian dark, my experience is human eyes adjust to the conditions far better than videocams seem to.

It could be a set-up, but I err towards it being authentic.

As for the ’serpent’, it looks to me to have almost pig-like ears, before it goes out of focus, so I’d plump for a hog or a dog.

I think it’s a hoax but even if it isn’t, what good is a glimpse of a vaguely lake-monsterish blob?

I miss Doc Shiels.
