A security guard claims to have seen the Loch Ness monster ... on Google Earth.

Jason Cooke says the satellite image (which can be seen on Google here) clearly shows the Nessie he has heard about in previous accounts and descriptions.

The 12m figure can be seen as a head with a long neck, followed by two large flippers, and two minor flippers attached to a large body. 

While Nessie fans online are saying the image proves the existence of the monster ... others claim it just looked like the wake of a speedboat.

And after looking at aerial images of speedboats I have to say I agree, so this article is being added to the list of those whose headlines can be answered with the word no.
