Discovery Channel - Lost Tapes: Monster of Monterey

July 29, 2009

Watched again Discovery Channel’s Lost Tapes. Last night’s story was about a 26-year old journalist, Sharon Novak, lost in her expedition through the bay of Monterey. 

I’ve seen the 30-minute video. It’s about a sea monster or a marine dinosaur (Plesiosaur) still under water. Sailing Monterey Bay, Sharon Novak had 4 video cams attached on her boat and one video cam attached with her to make video records of her sailing. While sailing, she heard an emergency call from her radio “mayday! mayday! …” too bad I didn’t clearly heard that but as what I’ve heard from the emergency call, the caller said “this is an emergency, there is something in the water …”. Sharon asked for the caller’s location and she wrote it in a paper. She called for help but no one answered her. Since there’s no answer from the station, it’s gonna be her responsibility to attend to the emergency call as coast guard. Upon approaching the location of the caller, she had her camera ready. While approaching the boat, there was no one in it, but the boat’s motor is still running. She was shocked to see that the boat has blood stains on the sides of it. She did not checked the bloody boat and decided to leave for her own safety. While preparing her sails, the rollers got stucked and as she attempted to fix it, something tipped the boat and knocked her down into the water. With her camera, it is obvious that she is struggling to climb back to the boat. So she tried swimming to the front of the boat but she was only getting farther from it. The harder she tries to swim back to the boat, the scarier it is to see her getting far away from her boat…

On my opinion, whatever pulled her down to the abyss, it’s not a shark. Sharks go wild instantly upon seeing or catching their prey. You can actually see it if it’s a shark. But if you review the video, look closely on the lower left corner of the screen and you will see the silhouette of a long-necked creature twice, like it’s slowly going around her…

Did she just swam away and was just faking?…. or was she really pulled down into the abyss?….
