No sign of the famous monster was found on the camera that had been in Loch Ness for 55 years.

An underwater camera set up 55 years ago to try and photograph the Loch Ness Monster has been found by accident by a robot submarine.

The ocean-going yellow sub - called Boaty McBoatface - was being put through trials when its propeller snagged the mooring for the 1970s camera system.

It is believed it was lowered 180m (591ft) below the loch’s surface by the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau, a group set up in the 1960s to uncover the existence of Nessie in the waters.

No footage of Nessie has been found on the camera, but one of the submarine’s engineers was able to develop a few images of the loch’s murky waters.

    we had to invent /s because subtle sarcasm isn’t obvious. This wasn’t subtle. It was blatant, incredibly clear sarcasm. Poes law is talking about you in this situation. And the jk didn’t matter. they told you in their first reply to you

    Um, you’re taking my comment way too seriously. I replied to a cartoon picture. I literally just made up a silly explanation that would fit the photos. Please take a deep breath and go touch some grass.

    And then you proceeded to double down even harder on believing it wasn’t sarcasm. I’m guessing you were just having a terrible day so shake it off and move on.

      Maybe check the timestamps and see that they replied it was a joke long after id had the discussion with star. So no?

      Again, this is World. Not Memes. Default assumption is your speaking truthfully. Just because you made a shitty joke doesn’t mean I need to humor it either. I’m sorry I’m not content with everything being a joke.

      Boo fucking hoo.
