Last week, it was a man claiming to have spotted Nessie the Loch Ness monster. This week, it‘s a couple friends in Norway offering a picture of what they’re calling a sea serpent.
“We saw what we saw, no doubt about it,” Andreas Solvik told NRK.no (translated by HuffPo).
Here’s the evidence:
HuffPo has more translation from the pair:
Solvik and his two friends, Finn Nyhammer and Arvid Otterdal, were familiar with the local sea serpent tales, but hadn’t figured on seeing it themselves.
“I have lived beside the lake for 50 years, and have spent a fair amount of hours on the lake. I have never seen anything like this before,” said Solvik.
“We sped up and went over to where it had been. It was maybe 70 meters away,” Solvik added. “But when we got there, there was nothing left to see, only small ripples in the water. There wasn’t anything floating in the water.”
Do you agree?

Posted on August 17, 2012 at 1:47pmUs men see a sea serpent every time we go to the bathroom. Number one that is. Some serpents are small and some are large, but regardless or the actual size of the sea serpent, most men will describe the serpent as being much larger than it actually isBut, according to AC DC they have the biggest balls of all.

I wouldn’t dare go into the woods in Washington State with a “good” camera, because Bigfoot obviously kills all who trespass on his territory with a quality camera, while allowing those with crappy “cardboard box” camera carriers, survive!!!! LOL

Posted on August 17, 2012 at 5:23pmHilarious…I actually think BHO is the anti-christ. There are so many signs leading many to believe we are strolling through the days just before the return of Christ. I truly believe that this photo could be anything. I have seen fish jump that might look like this photo also. It looks as if one is going right and the other going left.
