It's been one of the most persistent mysteries of all times - does the Loch Ness monster, Nessie, exist? For those people who are really interested in finding out, Google is your friend. The big internet company has taken its Street View cameras on and under Scotland's most famous lake.
According to a post on Google's blog, their initiative is part of the anniversary celebration (including Tuesday's Google Doodle) of the iconic "Surgeon's Photograph" that began the legend of the Loch Ness monster. The photo, which was taken in 1934, showed what appeared to be a giant sea creature raising its neck out of the water, which started a series of conspiracy theories that linger to this modern day.
To get the images, Google ditched its recognizable Street View car in favor of a boat. But, they also employed a team of professional divers to snap photos beneath the weird lake's surface. A video was also made showing how they did it.
