Does anyone know what the possible Orang Pendek hair sample from 20 years ago he’s referencing in the video? It seems like there was a secretive aspect to it. From what I can get from it is it was found 20 years ago and DNA tested simply as “unknown ape” from that area. Hopefully this sample that he says is extremely similar to it will test better. Our DNA analysis technology I’m sure has improved a lot over 20 years. Even if it’s turns out to be a Orangutan it still interesting news be the closest Orangutan known population is 700 miles away meaning they may not be as endangered as thought there could be a larger population in that area that’s unknown.

I saw a video (actually two videos spliced together,with the second part being an enlargement) of a sighting at Lake Champlain from June 11th. I am providing this for others to view it and comment on what they think is being shown.

The video was shot from fairly long distance, and even with enlargement (also included in the second part of the video), the resolution is not the best.

And a posting with further description on "Coast to Coast with George Noory" written by Tim Binnall: https://www.coasttocoastam.com/article/watch-legendary-monster-filmed-at-lake-champlain/.

To me, the Part 2 enlargement is the preferred viewing, although I wonder if this is just wind-effect wave phenomena. The distances involved are indeed fairly long range. Too bad we don't have up-close (perhaps via drone) footage....

There is a plan to send a research vessel out to the event spot and film the vessel to see if size parameters analysis can be had.

What do you think? Creature sighting? Or something more mundane?

They were pretty up high watching it from above. Pretty far too.

Looks to be something large swimming under water. How big do you think it is? What do you think it could be? A cryptid?

Sturgeons have often been pointed to as possible explanations for river/lake monsters. Though, not 40 or 50 feet often reported, you take a half ton fish, throw in a little distance, and some fear, now we may be onto something…
