fatalitum:The Hook Island Sea Monster, also known as the tadpole creature, is the name given to a 30-foot sea monster sighted off the coast of Hook Island. It resembles a giant tadpole, has a gaping mouth with no teeth and eyes placed on top of it’s head.The evidence that it is fake and that it is real are equally balanced out. Some say it was photoshopped, but that wasn’t invented back then. Others say it was a large sheet of plastic weighed down by sand but even still, who would put so much effort into a hoax? The evidence that it is real is that it looked very lifelike, some shots up-close showed that the eyes looked to detailed to be modeled out of plastic. Either way, many people are reluctant to swim in the waters of Hook Island.The monster was sighted by Robert Le Serrec and his family in 1964 when it moved towards his ship with it’s mouth open as if to attack. He spotted its tail was injured, probably by a ship’s propeller or by a larger creature. Just as it seemed it would swallow the ship, it swam away. Le Serrec managed to take a few shots before it swam away, never to be seen again. More information here. -- source link
