The Garside video appears to show three or several disjoined darkly colored patches moving along on the surface of the Scottish lake.
What do they show?
Nessie? Otters? Waves? Wake of a boat? A toy?
What do you think?
How was it obtained? Here’s what is known:
David Garside, 31, and his dad, Graham, of Glenside Road, Slaithwaite, were on holiday in Scotland in April 2008, when David saw what he took to be the Loch Ness Monster.
During a tourist boat trip (I wonder if the boat operator was someone I know?) on the loch, David saw an unusual object in the distance, and zoomed in with his video camera to get a better look.
Quote:
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.

His father added:
Quote:
When we got off the boat, David told me he had seen the Loch Ness Monster and I told him to keep quiet or he’d get locked up. It wasn’t until a couple of weeks later when I was having a pint and he showed me it and I could see it was real. I was a sceptic before, but I believe it now. I told a few people, including the holiday company we went on holiday with, but some clerk I spoke to probably thought I was mad so it didn’t get any further.
Graham Garside
During Sony Pictures Entertainment’s recent Scotland staging of the projection of the Loch Ness Monster to promote the release of their new DVD, The Waterhorse: Legend of the Deep, they learned of and unearthed the new footage.
This was originally published at Huddersfield Daily Examiner via their video site here.

*sigh*
Probably just floating log(s) which are common there. They report it as moving, but you can't know that when you're filming from a moving boat on water with currents and waves. Well, you could know it was moving if it was on skis or something, but the motion is slow if any, and quite possibly an illusion.
