Join Earth Ranger Emma on an adventure to the misty Scottish Highlands, where she tackles one of the world’s greatest mysteries: the Loch Ness Monster! Is Nessie just a tall tale, or could there be something lurking beneath those murky waters? While Ryan is determined to prove the monster’s existence, Emma sets off on a mission to uncover the truth with a splash of science, a bit of history, and a few surprises. Will she find the Loch Ness Monster, or just more fish tales? Tune in to find out!
Ryan’s back…and he’s started a new podcast “Earth Investigators”. But there’s one problem – it’s shares a ton of info that’s wrong! Ryan’s on a mission to prove creatures like mothman or the yeti are real. These myths have been spread for ages, are fun tales… but they’re not real! Emma is determined to debunk them with science and facts and prove that many cryptid sightings can be linked to some very real – yet no less fascinating animals.
Emma’s first myth-busting adventure takes her to the heart of Scotland to a special freshwater loch: Loch Ness! She’s here to investigate the renowned Loch Ness Monster, or Nessie for short.
Word of Nessie’s existence first began back in the 7th Century, when a medieval monk named Adomnán wrote a book describing a dangerous beast who swam the waters of the River and Loch. The legend, not too unlike the grim fairy tales, was supposed to warn the people of that time to stay safe. Especially during stormy and dark nights, the idea of a monster out there will keep reckless swimmers from getting into danger.
The legend was then passed down through the generations, especially showing up in the 1930s when Robert Kenneth Wilson supposedly took “the surgeon’s photograph” to prove Nessie’s existence. This photo was revealed to be a hoax, crafted out of a toy submarine and wood putty pieces.
Earlier the same year that the photo was taken, Arthur Grant reported that thought he’d passed by the monster on his motorcycle. It is believed that he mistook a seal or an otter in the dark and exaggerated the encounter. As technology has advanced sonar readings of the loch prove that there is no monster swimming in its waters…
What do you think of the Loch Ness Monster Legend? Do you wish it was real?
