Your voice is so calming and I love how you don't make up random stuff in your head and actually do research. I've been with your channel for four years and I love every single video of yours. Keep up the great work. Now I'll sit back and enjoy👌🙂
I love how you never suggest that any thing is true or not true. You just lay out the facts and let ppl draw their own conclusions. You're the best man!... keep up the good work
There have also been many sightings of a similar creature in Lake Champlain, in Vermont, known as Champ. Lake Champlain is a hundred and twenty miles long, and thirty miles wide, with mostly empty countryside and swamps along either side of it. It is also on the same latitude as loch Ness. One researcher, named Dennis Hall, thinks it could be what is known as a tanystropheus, which was an extremely long-necked, slender, and massive reptile that was known to live in the area up until the last ice age. There have also been several videos taken by Hall which are very difficult to explain away, and which certainly seem to show large, long-necked reptiles swimming in the lake, although the videos are not very well known. Considering that this creature was known to still exist just a few thousand years ago, and considering that it supposedly lives in the least densely populated state in the US, it seems that it is definitely a possibility that it does exist.. Also, it should be mentioned that there have been several recordings in the past decade of a creature echolocating in the lake, at a frequency that does not resemble any known creature. The only animals known to echolocate underwater are dolphins and whales, and neither of them could possible access the lake, since it is land-locked. It has been determined be several scientists that there is an unknown animal echolocating in the lake, and they have recorded it in several different locations..
It couldn't be a reptile in an area that cold, they're cold blooded. Many dinosaurs were believed to be warm blooded. It'd have to be warm blooded or a fish... based on what we know today any way
When I was born in 1986, we lived on the shore of the lake, on the NY side. Left when I was a baby, but I hope to get back there one day soon. The stories of Champ have always interested me as it's my birthplace.

@Tops5s I've been subscribed to this channel for two years, and I've loved every moment of it. There's been no nonsense, no plugging, just pure, stimulating and engaging content. Thank you So much.
"Hit those lights, sit back, and enjoy...." --Gotta say, unless he's a total ogre, that voice would pretty much do the trick for me. Any other ladies feel me?
The Loch Ness Monster would be a Giant [probably mutated] Leech and not a dinosaur. By the way, since it's the Holiday Season, how 'bout a Top 5 on Krampus?
#Tops5s Hey man. Been subscribed for a while, love your work. I have a question/request for you. Could you please, when making/showing measurements in your videos, include both the imperial and metric system? Because most of us that do NOT use imperial system have to google the measurements everytime you write or say the numbers. Makes it easier for a lot of your subs to understand your content without having to calculate whilst watching :) Keep up the good work.
This is my childhood dream come true. When I was in grade school, I tried to research as much as I could about the Loch Ness Monster before the Internet was a thing. Thank you for bringing back my imagination and curiosity.
It feels like people who take photos of strange beings and monsters deliberately go out of their way to blur the shot, or have something to partially block the image so we can't see the whole creature. I know I'm probably wrong but seriously, that's the case almost *every time!*
I still remember when I subscribed to you, your subscribers were just like 17,000 and I was like, "Oh dear, this channel is as good as a chocolate cake. This needs more attention for its quality!" So I hit that subscribed button and knew to myself that it was one of the best thing I did. And here I am, googling my eyes at the millions subscribers you have. It took a lot of hard work and it bloomed. I am very proud of you, Top5s! So grateful to see it boomed into how I wanted it. xx
I never really told you how much I appreciate your vids Top5, but you are definitely one my favorite youtube channels by far. If you ever decide to record your voice for a phone like siri, or maybe a GPS, you gotta let us know man. Also, it's probably hard as hell to create content for this channel, so thank you for all the hard work you do and keep it up!
I wanted to give a quick comment I know this may be far fetched, it depends on whether you believe animals have spirits or not, but what if the Loch Ness Monster is a ghost?
That is an interesting theory, as it would explain sightings over a long period of time (unless there was an active breeding population), plus the limited food in the Loch that will likely not be sufficient enough for a large aquatic predator. Aside from religious beliefs, we know nothing about what happens after death. With that being said, who knows, really.
I love the fact that top5s did a video on one of my favourite childhood subjects. It was nice to feel like I was 8 years old, looking at nessie documentaries on cable.
I LOVED the Water Horse movie (yeah, I might be alone here) so you got my attention for using footage from that! xD Now I'm gonna calm down and watch the rest of the video!
I'm American and I totally agree!! My fellow Americans will never convert as long people keep catering to the foolish "Standard" measurement system. Metric is soooooo much easier and far superior, and sorry everyone here we aren't special. The rest of the world minus Burma and Liberia use metric for a reason (even drug dealers use metric and everything manufactured uses it).
Thwallace it will be when you put in a little time to learning it. Metric is intuitive and makes much more sense. There are 1000 meters in a kilometer, how many meters in 2.3 kilometers? Much easier that 5,280 ft in a mile, how many feet in 2.3 miles?
Also considering how large it must be, it's lifespan would be very short. So there cannot be a family because thered be like...NO life in the water, and it can't be alive currently because it's lifespan would be short.
When I was nine, my Aunt took me to Loch Ness. As a child I grew up on a lot of our myths in Scotland, and as you travel to Inverness and Loch Ness you can see the impact of the myth of Nessie. Teddy bears, plush items, pillows, scarves, blankets: Nessie is more of a marketing item for tourism, rather than a simple myth to most. I believe that Nessie could exist, in some form. But even if the myth was a fabrication, you can hardly deny how beautiful the Loch itself is.
Another fantastic vid, love the channel! There's a video called "Iceland's loch ness monster spotted?" that looks pretty convincing, it's not a plesiosaur but it is a very large creature. It looks real enough but at the same time something seems off.
Very possible considering we have explored space more than our own oceans and largest bodies of water plus the loch is connected to the ocean if I'm not mistaken so it goes to say maybe it enters and exits the loch as it needs
Here's what I think: if plesiosaurs and other prehistoric sea reptiles exist (which I think is quite possible), then they probably venture into the loch to feed or to mate or nest, but don't actually live there. The loch does have access to the North Sea, so that is possible, and there are a number of species that can survive in both saltwater and freshwater. I don't think a species of animal of that size could reside there alone, and the same goes for other lake monsters.
GaelicCelt1990 plesiosaurs vertebrae locked in a way that made it impossible to arch there necks like swans like a lot of people say to have witnessed.
True, but the same thing applies, an unknown sea creature of considerable size (if they actually exist) could move from a saltwater environment to a freshwater one in the same way as bull sharks, saltwater crocodiles and certain species of large fish can, plesiosaur or not. Also, it's possible that such an animal alive today could've evolved since prehistoric times to have a more flexible neck. Another interesting thing to consider is that people's memories can be somewhat unreliable, especially when they've witnessed something shocking or surprising, and some details could be missed or exaggerated. There are also liars and fakers.
In addition to Champ in Lake Champlain, there's also the Ogopogo from Kelowna BC. People say that it too is a pleasiasaur, and there's a native American legend that says you had to bring a chicken or some small sacrifice to throw off your canoe to the Ogopogo, so that you can have safe passage. Well when the white man came, he didn't respect the Ogopogo, and tried to cross without giving the lake Monster its tribute. So the Ogopogo flipped his canoe and dragged him to the bottom of the lake. Do a part two featuring monsters that are like Nessie perhaps??? But great video and I LOVE listening to your voice. Your accent is so calming!!
I'm always a bit baffled by the 'seals' suggestion. I have a biology degree with zoological focus, and though I'm not super familiar with aquatic/amphibious mammals, I don't know of any seals living in freshwater.
Because Loch Ness is so deep and so narrow there is not enough vegetation to support enough fish to feed any monsters. Scientist concluded there was only enough fish in all of Loch Ness to feed one 2 Tone monster, if one existed. Having been to Loch Ness I can testify that the only thing that lives there are ducks on the surface, a few fish, and the locals that live by the lake. There is nothing else that Loch Ness.
I love your videos your videos are so interesting and always help me keep calm. I have to be honest I have ptsd and sometimes get anxiety attacks and I swear almost every time I watch your videos my anxiety attack goes away. Your voice is so calming and soothing. 🙂❤️🌸
The 'flipper' photo was the most compelling to me ever since I was a wee lass in the 1980's. The appearance of a central bony ridge made it look especially impressive to me. But I looked it up very recently and apparently it is just a VERY enhanced photo of the loch's floor. So disappointing. But that's science; we must suss out the untruths so that the truths can rightfully shine.
So, I've never personally seen the Loch Ness Monster but I do have a vacation house on the bay in Olympia, and I do see some sort of bird that sits in the water in the exact same position as the Loch Ness Monster, making it look exactly like the famous picture of the monster. But I can't remember specifically what kind of bird it was exactly.
I honestly think the Greenland shark theory makes a ton of sense. The size, coloration, and sighting characteristics all match the Greenland. Most sightings are of a smooth hump or "overturned boat" roughly 20 ft long and brown, grey, or rusty in color all match. They live in cold water and have lifespans of at least 100 years and possibly longer.
As the descriptions often depict it as having a long curved neck, that sort of eliminates the possibility of it being a plesiosaur because the neck of a plesiosaur could not bend , "Tall neural spines inhibited vertical (up and down) flexibility and large processes on the anterior and posterior surfaces of the vertebrae (prezygapophyses and postzygapophyses) inhibited horizontal (side to side) flexibility. The neck was therefore actually rather inflexible so plesiosaurs could also not adopt the often depicted swan-like pose (Storrs, 1993)."
7:56 looks like a greenland shark. I just want to say thank you Top 5s. I've watched your videos for 4 years and I look forward to your posts every week. You brighten my days and I can't wait to see what you have in store next week
Ian Macfarlane I personally dont believe in any cryptid, but I think the history of them and original sightings are interesting. You can watch these videos for the information and not actually believe it yourself.
Boba66 True, and there could be other reasons for disliking videos. It's not something that I normally do (I've probably 'disliked' less than ten videos), but I wouldn't necessarily assume that it's because people are "against learning".
Lakers fan As I've stated already out of all the videos that I've ever watched I've hit 'dislike' maybe a dozen times at most (it's probably only five times - I don't really think about it). The like button I invariably hit 90%+ of the time, even if I don't actually like the video, I see it as a courtesy to content providers. I was just curious about the OP asking if people "are against learning" that's all. I find the Loch Ness monster subject matter to be incredibly tedious but I still wouldn't hit dislike - if I've something to say I'll say it in the comments.
The only channel in this genre I subscribe to. Its the presentation and the voice as much as anything. I have an open mind but Nessy is in a 30,000 year old loch from the ice age. Mammoths, Sabre tooth Tigers and Neanderthals resided. Nessy stories are still exciting though, and you really feel the thing if you every go to Loch Ness for sure, so 'up yours' to the debunkers lol. "See what you think?".....I love this guy
Loved this vid. I've always loved the entire idea of Nessie. I was totally stoked when I finally got to visit Loch Ness years back. I know there probably is nothing under the water but its such a great thing to hope that there is. The lake is beautiful and can be creepy. I will go back and grab a Nessie brew.
Diana Pardo it is a legendary monster that resides in New Jersey. It was actually born as a child to mother leed as her 13th child around the 17th century and eventually transformed into a monster. You should search more about it
By the way there are many bed-and-breakfast locations throughout the township, and an equestrian training outfit that will let you camp on the grounds for a few pounds a night located just over the bridge. Loch Ness is a great place to visit, take photographs, and drink a few pints. Just don't get your hopes up i'm spotting Nessie.
I visited the area twice and it is a beautiful area, love the castle ruins and spent the night at a bed and breakfast by the locks at the end of the Loch.
Absolutely amazing video, loch ness is at my doorstep and it does seem that we take it for granted! Knowing you have took the time and done some research on my hometown makes me proud to be scottish. Thank you sir have a good xmas.
A well presented and informative video on Nessie. Despite all the hoaxes, and undoubtedly they were hoaxes, I still believe that Nessie exists, and sightings, not just at Loch Ness, but all over the world, have been reported of such a creature.
3:09 I remember reading about John Cobb when I was into all things Loch Ness Monster related. Supposedly at least according to lore Cobb's speeding boat hit a wave that suddenly appeared from nowhere which destroyed it on impact. Some people theorize that wave was caused by Nessie trying to get out of the way of Cobb's boat at that moment. Although looking at that footage in slo-mo 2:54-3:02 I wasn't able to spot any wave there myself. Anyone else?
Cant believe people actually fell for that loch ness picture. Even in the cropped picture just looking at the size of the waves/ripples its obvious that the object is tiny.
I hope I get to see Scotland one day. This place is definitely on my bucket list. 😍 I used to have a wooden plesiosaur skeleton hanging in my room when I was a kid. He was so cool! (I loved that end part!😁)
I went to Loch Ness year's ago, i can remember seeing something on the loch but the loch can play trick's on you, as for do i believe in the legend i don't know their's always a possibility, but if it did exist someone would have got a descent photograph of it by now. Great video sir 😄👍

Don't worry human there is something there.

Wouldn’t a creature that large in size need to eat tons of fish to survive? Making the fish population in the loch decrease drastically?
That is a good fact you pointed at
Also considering how large it must be, it's lifespan would be very short.
So there cannot be a family because thered be like...NO life in the water, and it can't be alive currently because it's lifespan would be short.
Tyler Jaynes Maybe it’s lifespan won’t be short
The loch doesn't have enough food to support such a creature it's likely that if it does exist than it migrates from the outside into the loch

Most sightings are of a smooth hump or "overturned boat" roughly 20 ft long and brown, grey, or rusty in color all match. They live in cold water and have lifespans of at least 100 years and possibly longer.
Good thing you put that red circle in the thumbnail, otherwise I wouldn't know where to look.

I recently crocheted a Nessie for myself and now have to make more since my kids are fighting over her 😊
You should do one of these about the black shuck. It's my favourite folklore story and quite interesting
As the descriptions often depict it as having a long curved neck, that sort of eliminates the possibility of it being a plesiosaur because the neck of a plesiosaur could not bend , "Tall neural spines inhibited vertical (up and down) flexibility and large processes on the anterior and posterior surfaces of the vertebrae (prezygapophyses and postzygapophyses) inhibited horizontal (side to side) flexibility. The neck was therefore actually rather inflexible so plesiosaurs could also not adopt the often depicted swan-like pose (Storrs, 1993)."
OMG i love these videos please continue making them, i've watch all your mythical creatures videos and i keep watching them it's soooo good
Let’s hope the Loch Ness monster is real
7:56 looks like a greenland shark.
I just want to say thank you Top 5s. I've watched your videos for 4 years and I look forward to your posts every week. You brighten my days and I can't wait to see what you have in store next week
God I love your voice.. sets in the mood so perfectly...
Loving these new transitions!
Here's a 640x480 photo of an object 3 miles away. There's your proof!
Who the fuck could dislike this video? What, are you against learning?
Boba66 "Against learning"?
Or against perpetuating an embarrassing myth, which only serves to fleece cash from gullible tourists.
Ian Macfarlane I personally dont believe in any cryptid, but I think the history of them and original sightings are interesting. You can watch these videos for the information and not actually believe it yourself.
Boba66 True, and there could be other reasons for disliking videos. It's not something that I normally do (I've probably 'disliked' less than ten videos), but I wouldn't necessarily assume that it's because people are "against learning".
Lakers fan As I've stated already out of all the videos that I've ever watched I've hit 'dislike' maybe a dozen times at most (it's probably only five times - I don't really think about it).
The like button I invariably hit 90%+ of the time, even if I don't actually like the video, I see it as a courtesy to content providers.
I was just curious about the OP asking if people "are against learning" that's all.
I find the Loch Ness monster subject matter to be incredibly tedious but I still wouldn't hit dislike - if I've something to say I'll say it in the comments.
Ian Macfarlane No worries man, I got ya.
Of all my youtube subscriptions, my favourite channel by far. Great work
Haven’t seen it but I already know it’s a great video
The only channel in this genre I subscribe to. Its the presentation and the voice as much as anything.
I have an open mind but Nessy is in a 30,000 year old loch from the ice age. Mammoths, Sabre tooth Tigers and Neanderthals resided.
Nessy stories are still exciting though, and you really feel the thing if you every go to Loch Ness for sure, so 'up yours' to the debunkers lol.
"See what you think?".....I love this guy
Loved this vid.
I've always loved the entire idea of Nessie. I was totally stoked when I finally got to visit Loch Ness years back. I know there probably is nothing under the water but its such a great thing to hope that there is. The lake is beautiful and can be creepy. I will go back and grab a Nessie brew.
Do a video about the jersey devil!
Giovanni Naranjo ohhh yea thats a good idea
That would be awesome its an interesting subject for sure
IKR we should tell him to do it
Giovanni Naranjo what is the jersey devil?
Diana Pardo it is a legendary monster that resides in New Jersey. It was actually born as a child to mother leed as her 13th child around the 17th century and eventually transformed into a monster. You should search more about it
By the way there are many bed-and-breakfast locations throughout the township, and an equestrian training outfit that will let you camp on the grounds for a few pounds a night located just over the bridge.
Loch Ness is a great place to visit, take photographs, and drink a few pints. Just don't get your hopes up i'm spotting Nessie.
I really enjoyed this episode. As always, well Researched, Well Compiled, & Well Presented.
Perfectly when I ended another video the notification popped up.
I visited the area twice and it is a beautiful area, love the castle ruins and spent the night at a bed and breakfast by the locks at the end of the Loch.
Gonna need about tree fiddy
Oh, how I'd love to visit the home of my ancestors and take a trip to Loch Ness. One day!
love this, Loch Ness is right on my door step love hearing stuff about Nessie, and all your videos! keep it up
Absolutely amazing video, loch ness is at my doorstep and it does seem that we take it for granted! Knowing you have took the time and done some research on my hometown makes me proud to be scottish. Thank you sir have a good xmas.
A well presented and informative video on Nessie. Despite all the hoaxes, and undoubtedly they were hoaxes, I still believe that Nessie exists, and sightings, not just at Loch Ness, but all over the world, have been reported of such a creature.
Love all your videos. Always look forward to them!
Check out "Out of this World" by Marillion. A song that conmemorates John and that water speed event. It is beautiful.
Can’t be a creature that went extinct millions of years ago the lakes isn’t that old!!
Great video
3:09 I remember reading about John Cobb when I was into all things Loch Ness Monster related.
Supposedly at least according to lore Cobb's speeding boat hit a wave that suddenly appeared from nowhere
which destroyed it on impact.
Some people theorize that wave was caused by Nessie trying to get out of the way of Cobb's boat at that moment.
Although looking at that footage in slo-mo 2:54-3:02 I wasn't able to spot any wave there myself.
Anyone else?
Cant believe people actually fell for that loch ness picture. Even in the cropped picture just looking at the size of the waves/ripples its obvious that the object is tiny.
Amazing, keep doing videos like these. I like the ones you do about paranormal too
...the best doku-voice and "kind of speaking" I´ve ever heard...
aw poor John Cobb glad they gave him a tombstone near the Loch
The creature can be real
This is gonna be a great vid, I can feeeeel it!
By far the most interesting videos of this type on CZcams !!
Dis guys videos are mad banging
His voice makes it so much better aswell
I hope I get to see Scotland one day. This place is definitely on my bucket list. 😍 I used to have a wooden plesiosaur skeleton hanging in my room when I was a kid. He was so cool! (I loved that end part!😁)
I went to Loch Ness year's ago, i can remember seeing something on the loch but the loch can play trick's on you, as for do i believe in the legend i don't know their's always a possibility, but if it did exist someone would have got a descent photograph of it by now. Great video sir 😄👍
I've never been on time for one of these. *Cries tears of joy*
Top 5's is the best! Merry Christmas
