Initial data
A firefighter claims that he recorded the Loch Ness monster, seeing the "hump" in the water. Forester Ross Macaulay all his life he lived near Loch ness, but didn't believe in Nessie.
But he and his fellow firefighters were "confused" 12-foot (3.6 m) a creature that Ross took on your mobile phone.
But on 8 July Ross rode close to the Fort Aug when he looked at the water, about 200 feet (60,9 m) below the road.
He said
"There were a few kayakers, but about 100 yards (90 m) from them was something under the surface. At first I thought it was a big rock under water, and I just continued to move.
Then I thought: "Previously, there has never been a stone" - so the curiosity got the better of me. I turned around and parked.
The object has moved and is now located in the middle of the lake. The kayakers were much further behind him. The creature must be priplyli 400 yards (360 m) per minute against the wind.
I started to remove it within five minutes. There was no long neck, no head, just a hunch.
I'd say he was 12 feet (3.6 m) in length and 4 feet (1.2 m) in width, at the widest point. He was light gray, and then went under water and disappeared.
I have lived all my life in the area, and I'm a fisherman, who spent hundreds of hours on the lake. But I've never seen anything like this before. I believe in Nessie? - hell no!
I've seen seals in the lake dozens of times, but it was too large to be a seal. It wasn't a log, and it traveled against the wind. If anyone can explain to me what I saw, that would be great - but I just can't explain. I never thought I'd be one of those guys who see Nessie.
At first I was silent, but then showed it to my fellow firefighters, and they are also confused".

Original news
But he - and his fellow firefighters - are "baffled" by the 12ft long creature that Ross filmed on his mobile phone.
It is also the first accepted sighting of Nessie by a witness at the loch this year. The other five have been by the loch's webcam
Ross, 35, is a retained firefighter at Drumnadrochit, lying on the shore of Loch Ness.
He is also a tree feller and fencer for Forestry and Land Scotland, working around the loch.
But on July 8, Ross was driving just outside Fort Augustus when he glanced at the water, about 200ft below the road.
He said: "There were a couple of kayakers, but 100 yards ahead of them was something below the surface.
At first I thought it was a big rock under the water and I just carried on driving.
"Then I thought 'there's never been a rock there before' - so curiosity got the better of me. I turned round and parked in a long lay-by.
"The object had moved and was now out in the middle of the loch. The kayakers were much further behind. The creature must have done 400 yards in a minute - and against the wind.
"I started filming it for five minutes. There was no long neck, no head, just the hump bit.
"I would say it was 12ft long and 4ft wide, at its widest. It was light grey and it went under the water then up and then disappeared.
"I have lived all my life in the area and I am a keen fisherman who has spent hundreds of hours on the loch. But I have never seen anything like that before. Did I believe in Nessie? - hell no!
"I have seen seals dozens of times in the loch, but this was far too big to be a seal. It was not a log and was travelling against the wind. If somebody can explain to me what I have seen that would be great - but I just can't explain it. I never thought I would be one of those guys seeing Nessie.
"I kept quiet at first but then I showed it #to my fellow firefighters and they at first took the Mick, but are equally baffled."
