From St. Petersburg came to professional zoologists, who studied the flora and fauna of the Tver land.Brosno Lake, where fishing has been banned temporarily, fully understood the foreshore were literally pitted and proceed up and down, and then the results of the study were to diverge from the words of local residents and the fact that in the papers.
Myths and Facts
newspapers reported that the lake has a deep depression over 80 meters, where the notorious monster lives, but by examining the bottom, scientists have found that it is not.The only thing that could catch on - is movable bottom, which is in the lake, but it was completely lifeless.The maximum depth of the lake is 40 meters.
previously argued that food for the predator in the lake Brosno more than enough, but zoologists have found that eating it would be absolutely nothing.
scientists also provided the video, which was allegedly filmed the monster, but they failed.On one actually swam the lake wild boar, was increased in the second most common duck's head.
Found witnesses
disastrous rumor that had been eaten by a predator girl, too, has not been confirmed.No mysterious deaths or disappearances has not been a local police station or hospital.It turned out that all the people who said the deaths of the child, has long lived in a different place (for reasons not related to the monster), and many did die long before the large-scale study.Natives advise scientists and reporters to talk with two local businessmen, that something could tell about it.Their quest took a bit of time.
PR stunt?
Successful businessman and his son were ready to show the place where the murder took place, for the fabulous sum, but after learning that the matter involved in the scientific expedition, went back down and confessed that he had never seen anything like it.While the old-timers stood firm on the fact that these two have all seen and everyone knows them, he says, even "on the TV show" (invited on TNT).Businessmen described as honest, intelligent and honest people who do not have to say nothing.From a conversation with a senior, it was found that the lake he had acquired in the property and intends to establish in its place a tourist base.Both men - indigenous locals, and they remembered the old legend about a monster right out of the lake.It is obvious that it was just a PR stunt to attract tourists.The story is banal and ridiculous, if only because it already has counterpart.For the first time he saw the Loch Ness monster of the landlord, located near the lake.
Lake Brosno, description of the parameters which was given above, just could not hide in its bosom vast monster: he did not have enough depth and food.
How did the ancient myth was born?
It was obvious, but the only thing that worried members of the expedition - is the question of where all these rumors come from originally, because before nobody even knew what tourism.And soon, the unexpected happened.The last day of the expedition was marked by an emergency situation, which was born thanks to the hypothesis that the monster still could really exist.The vessel is fixed at the bottom with a depth of 35 meters, which has previously been measured, but then began to grow rapidly depth.And then from the bottom it seemed a living being rather large in size.To check whether it is alive, the scientists threw a firecracker into the water, and being reacted.Then the monster began to rise up, pulling on a search vessel.The crew panicked, everyone feared that encounter with unknown animals face to face.Not wanting to force things, the crew was immediately decided to float away.
After this incident, the expedition once again set to work with even greater enthusiasm.A month after the start of the study were announced final results.There was no animal.It was a movement of bottom layer, which has caused a kind of maelstrom that was the result of an illusion scare the crew.Bottom whirlpools - yavlyaenie local natural, requires careful study.The monsters could not be here, but the locals did see a strange emotion on the water, which are explained above natural phenomenon.
Despite unambiguous conclusions of scientists, newspapers were still full of incredible titles.A popular TV channel, even show was filmed in which they promised to catch the monster.Within the series the director made an intriguing video, skillfully steered in the right direction fantasy layman, but caught by a predator, of course, was not.

In 2007 has been started another investigation group of students and graduate students, who have found another approach to the lake, previously unknown.They also talked to an eyewitness who called himself the master of the lake and still insisted that regularly sees the monster.But it soon became clear that this was an impostor, who skillfully made a rumor of a monster for many years, leading the tourists by the nose.
To finally confirm the established facts and sent another group of highly qualified scientists.At this time the band was much more extensive, divers and added a lot of new equipment.For the authenticity of all the stages of study filmed.In addition to the standard survey design neighborhoods and bottom of the lake, water sampling was tasked to investigate another question - on a sandy hill, which describes the ancient chroniclers.Helicopters, divers, scientists, local residents - all waiting for new discoveries.But they are not followed, due to which it has been found that the puzzle of the lake there is the most common reservoir.Instead of an epilogue
