Watch: Argentine Man Films Legendary Lake Monster 'Nahuelito'?

By Tim Binnall

A compelling piece of footage from Argentina shows a mysterious disturbance at a lake where a legendary monster, dubbed Nahuelito, is said to reside. According to a local media report, the intriguing sighting occurred on Tuesday afternoon when a witness, identified by his first name Fernando, noticed something unusual unfolding on Lake Nahuel Huapi. To his surprise, an object resembling "a big stone" had suddenly emerged from the water.

The disturbance was particularly perplexing because the surface was otherwise perfectly placid with no people or boats in the area that could account for the mystifying movement. While somewhat skeptical about the existence of a 'monster' at Nahuel Huapi, Fernando acknowledged that the source of the strange incident could have been the creature. "I don't know if we saw Nahuelito," he mused, "but surely what people call Nahuelito."

Fortunately, Fernando managed to capture some of the sighting with his cell phone. That said, he conceded that the footage only shows the moments after the anomalous object initially surfaced and, in turn, caught his attention. A lifelong resident of the area, he recounted an incident from his childhood wherein his family was walking along the shore of Nahuel Huapi and came upon a gathering of people captivated by something strange in the water. "Yesterday, my mom told me it was the same thing we filmed," Fernando revealed. To that end, what do you think he captured surfacing at the lake? Was it the legendary Nahuelito or something less monstrous? Weigh in with your thoughts at the C2C Facebook page.
