Everybody has gone Champ (lake monster) mad after a video was posted on YouTube which clams to show something in the lake at Oakledge Park in Burlington, Vermont.
Interestingly the owner of the video has said I put this up because it was strange, not because I think it is “Champ.” So if it’s not Champ, what is it?

Still from the SOMETHING in the lake (video) at Oakledge Park on Sunday 31st May 2009 05.30am.
Orginal video caption: I shot this video (with cellphone) of SOMETHING in the lake at Oakledge Park on Sunday (05/31/09) early am (0530 or so). Was anyone else out and about around Oakledge on Sunday just after sunrise who saw this as well?

First of all, I apologize, this lake monster is really a (FAKE) monster. If you look at the nearby vertical log (which really was just one of a few reference points for digital manipulation) and the fake monster itself, you can see a lot of graphic element artifacts around the head, but none on the log, so this lake monster, is nothing but a fake, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I, myself was really hoping it was the real thing. Until I saw the video (which was terrible).
@Gamble, no need to apologise – I never said it was real and I think most people think it’s a bit suspect. But it is interesting to see how much fuss the video has caused.
I’d advise having a look at the Related Links to Cryptomundo though (above).
