SHOCKING new images of the notorious Loch Ness Monster have been trashed as an elaborate hoax by experts, who blast the dramatic photos as a pile of rocks, a hunk of driftwood or shadowy waves.
Steuart Campbell, author of the acclaimed book The Loch Ness Monster: The Evidence, debunks the supposed photographic proof, saying the pics show "a typical wake-effect wave caused by a boat plowing through the waters of the Scottish lake some distance away.
"Waves travel a long way on a calm surface," he explains. "This is the predominant explanation for most reports of Nessie, who doesn't exist."
Another expert, who has spent decades researching the phenomenon and has published articles on the subject, says the supposed monster caught on camera is likely only some driftwood floating around in the water.
