Documentary Film Maker Is a Monster Watcher
Richard Need, a 31 year old London documentary filmmaker, spends 550 miles yearly driving to Loch Ness to film for a possible sighting. He believes the Loch Ness animal is unclassified, 30 to 40 feet long, possibly a plesiosaur, though he has yet to see anything definitive. He notes dawn sightings are common and doubts monster watching will become a sport, acknowledging the challenge of underwater filming in the deep brackish loch.
