"Hell" from the Yakut lake labynkyr

In Yakutia, a huge variety of lakes. But, of course, the most mysterious of them is lake labynkyr. According to legend, there lives the creature called Lapankuri hell. It was observed by many. On the shore of a lake people settled, afraid to meet the monster, and coming fishermen and hunters were killed dogs and deer. They were dragged beneath the water by a mysterious monster. Although these places are very rich in game and fish, the local people are afraid to go back for a long time.

The only person for a long time living on the lake, was Alams. He has been here for years, hunted and fished. Here sometimes flew a helicopter, he changed their production of bread, tea and canned goods. The stories of Apamsa, the lake was inhabited by a few monsters -that is to say about the whole population. Once in Moscow at the exhibition "Hunting and fishing" I was fortunate to meet with a man who saw and talked with this Alyson.

In the distant 1980s, he served in the North, was a helicopter pilot and have visited lake labynkyr. The pilot's name was Sergei. He told me a story, heard from Alysa. Here's what he told the old taiga men.

- It was very scary when I first saw Labynkyr hell. More disgusting creation is hard to imagine. I don't even know what it is like. Then I sailed on a boat and out of the water delivered to the network. Fish was surprisingly a lot, got so much that I didn't know where to put it later. I thought about the fact that you can now two weeks of not catching anything, but only salted, dry-cured and smoked catch to it is not lost. And here I am, SMATV almost the entire network, saw a huge hole that could not make even the biggest catfish. I was very upset and started calculating in my mind how much time you will spend on maintenance of the network. The stock of the line I was limited, and the nearest village hundreds of kilometers. When I domotal network, from the bottom of the lake, something bubbled and quickly began to rise to the surface of the water. I got scared, grabbed the gun. Over the water there was a huge head on it was a bundle of tangled hair or seaweed. The beast swam quickly in my direction. His movements were such big waves that my boat lurched, and I fell into the water. - So scary I never had. While continuing to squeeze already in the hands of a useless gun, I was struggling swam to the shore. It was no more than a hundred meters. It is a pity that the boots had to fold, otherwise would have drowned. While I was swimming, I thought that haunts me is a miracle Yudo. But I in vain was afraid. The monster needed was my catch. He then ate all my fish. The boat is taking a lot of water, but not drowned. In the evening, when the wind rose, it washed ashore. On Board the boat left a clear teeth marks, note them, I realized how huge of a monster's mouth. At first it was so scary that I did not go to the lake fishing. But then I realized that this thing could eat me, but chose to eat fish. So I do not need it.

I was back fishing on the lake, at first cautiously, then more calmly. Before you get out on the water, always prayed and talked to monster asking them not to touch me. Then I noticed that at night especially during the full moon, this creature is selected on the shore, and sometimes there were two of them. I took leave of the catch on shore, in the very place where they usually went. In the morning nothing remained. So, someone of them or they together came and ate my offering.

- After I began to feed them, fish are no longer afraid. But the winter fish were almost gone, and the beast was looking for another prey. I have twice lost dog, they are likely to have dragged some of these devils. The lake came a lot of research, but nobody could take a clear shot of the monster. Some could not believe when I told about the monster, until they saw themselves.

One day I came to visit the fishermen. They stopped near my home. We had this exchange: they gave me a powder, shot, and loaded cartridges, salt, matches, vodka, tea, and smoked and dried fish catchability and the secret places where the fish are is really a lot. It was a strong frost, the lake was covered with a thick layer of ice. They decided to go there in the morning right on the sled. I warned them that winter here is dangerous, but they they start laughing at me, considering me senile. Decided that since I lived here as a hermit, my mind is long gone. I pity the guys and asked them fishing, although I have no shortage of fish stocks was not. They shrugged their shoulders, but still took me.

The weather was clear, almost no wind, but the frost is frost, there'd be nowhere without him. From the wind the boys set up the tent. The sled was tied to some kind frozen in the ice snag. They tied themselves, I to this place was not suitable, to not think anything bad about me. I helped to punch a few holes. For warmth, drank a bit of vodka and started fishing. The fishing was wonderful, the fish was caught on hurrah.

And suddenly something happened. Dogs hysterically howled and growled at the same time. We jumped out of the tent and saw the following picture. The sled slowly began to sink into a large hole. They were dragged into the depths of a huge monster. Tied to the sleds the dogs howled, sensing imminent death. My would-be fishermen quickly sobered up, rushed back to the tent and got out of there with guns. The sled in this moment completely disappeared under the water, and with them, the poor dogs. The guys fired at the bubbles on the water. The ice on which we stood began to crack. See, the monster wanted to eat us. Leaving the remnants of their equipment, we ran to the Bank. Slipped, fell, but rose and ran again. Calmed down only when they reached the shore. Now my guests knew exactly what Labinski hell exists, this is not a figment of my imagination.

Here's the story told Alys. I'm told Sergei, a former pilot of the helicopter crew, who visited lake labynkyr.
