I have a lead, on this video, the RetroTelevisionNetwork network in the US is showing re-runs of That’s Incredible. I have contacted them, but as of yet there is no word on whether they have the episode in question, which by all accounts is episode 31, so one of the earlier ones (they made like 170) and more likely to have been lost. But fingers crossed, this is one of the best leads I have found so far. Here is the wiki link for the network, for any interested sleuths http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retro_Television_Network

Newbie here. Here is some information on the episode that showed that dino footage.

Episode Detail: That’s Incredible! – That’s Incredible!

A stunt man maneuvers a giant wheel atop a Los Angeles skyscraper. Also: a dinosaur-like creature in Africa. Hosts: Cathy Lee Crosby, John Davidson and Fran Tarkenton.

I am currently looking for this lost episode. It’s almost as if somebody wanted it to disappear!!

Newbie here. I too saw the episode of That’s Incredible which showed the head and neck of something prehistoric looking. It slowly rose out of the river and then submerged. I saw that vid years ago but ever since seeing it, it has stuck with me all these years. By the way the episode in question is episode# 26 from “That’s Incredible”. Now somebody help find that episode!!!

Wow! This is great. Back in 1986 I was talking to a guy I knew at the time. I was talking about living dinosaurs and he mentioned seeing this episode of “You Asked for It”. I had seen the show many times but, never this episode. He claimed it showed a cave with many snakes and on the other side of the cave was a dinosaur-like creature that quickly moved by the camera. I was intrigued but, chalked it up as nonsense on his part. But, for years it has bugged me. Now I ran across this posting and I am convinced there is a basis to the story. I doubt it’s even remotely as lavish as the story I was told. Since I was told in 86 the episode had to have been a few years old at the most.

I’d say Mokele rates near the top of the list of Cryptids that have solid, reliable evidence. Not only do you have numerous, consistent descriptions from the locals, but also several reputable researchers have seen a creature themselves. Too bad for us (but good for Mokele) that it’s in one of the most humanly inhospitable parts of the world.

I cannot help you find the film clip but here is a link to the page of a blog, at the bottom of which someone else describes the clip you seem to refere to.

I am really excited to read that someone else remembers this important clip! Although grainy dark somewhat distant it is reliable enough for promoting this cryptid. As for the Thai serpent above can that not be easily debunked by a gigantic eel like fish that inhabits the lakes and rivers of SE Asia? They often keep smaller specimens in chinese restaurant fish tanks.

Michael!

It just clicked in my head which clip you’re talking about! And, you’re right, it’s totally different from the one I described. Yours was on “That’s Incredible!” I’m 98% sure of it! Some guy led an expedition and came back with a dark grainy (but clear enough), rather distant clip of this neck and head slowly rise out of the water, then back down again.

Sorry for the mistake, but, we’re on the same page now. I can’t believe I’ve finally encountered someone else who has seen and remembered this clip. You’re the first!

That was THE best and only reliable clip of evidence supporting a large dinosaur-like creature inhabiting that lake.
