The opportunity to be able to follow your dreams no matter what it is, must be the greatest feeling in the world.
kenneth joseph :))
That's what I thought, fair play to the guy for following his dreams, however he claims the only possible sighting he has had, was within his first year water splashing of somethings back, and 25 - 30 years later nothing more to add, I think that says something, he's spent his life chasing a phantom that dose'nt exist. I'm an open minded person I believe in bigfoot, I believe in UFO' S and aliens, and although CGI can do wonders in this day and age, I refuse to accept it's all fake CGI, as many would have you believe. The lochness monster
however i cannot accept to be real, their is just no evidence of it, and the most famous sighting/picture was proven fake (before CGI) many years ago, it does however make an exciting story
True. You should follow your dreams, no matter what people say. Just follow your dreams!
plot twist : the nessie always appear while he's sleeping.
Plot twist, He IS Nessie.
i hope he finds the monster :)
I really do hope that one day,in his dying breaths,He will ask anyone he holds dear to put his bed near the lakeshore. Minutes pass,and an amazing thing no one will ever dare to imagine happen. A dozen of swaying long necks dancing along the sunset. The biggest and probably the oldest one slowly swims toward the man, with friendly eyes of an old friend. In his final moments of his life,he pats that creature's nose,answered by a set of jaws enfolding around him.Now he shall lives on in the great Loch,together with his lifelong friends.
abie pratama Some of the most overly sentimental and corniest shit I've ever read. Hell of an imagination though.
"... answered by a set of jaws enfolding around him." Did you just wish for one of the monsters to eat him? This is what happens when you try too hard to be poetic.
Jolene Gov Maybe it was a tryhard. Thank you for noticing. It is more like a tragic thing. It's from the man's point pf view. The monster indeed ate him, and not showing that friendly eyes
Steve wouldn’t want that
What the fuck did I just read?
thats like throwing everything you have away in attempt to talk to an oreo
This channel is like an oasis in the middle of a scorching desert
abie pratama this channel is the aafe zone for borwd people
He's gonna need a tree fiddy when the Loch Ness monster shows up.
Living the dream
02:30 New favorite quote
Living the dream but he is still a crazy person
Martin Ahlander How is he crazy for wanting to believe there's something more out there? Because someone does something that most people wouldn't means they are crazy? Misguided or illogical maybe but you need to change your mindset because there's all sorts of different kinds of people out there who doesn't fit your ideology of normal
I hope he find Nessie one day ❤️❤️❤️
自分の人生の全てをこのネス湖に賭けたこの意思の強さがあれば、いつかその時が訪れる事を祈りたい。
Plot twist : Nessie went to America saw the schools felt like it should’ve educated and dies in a school shooting
I do hope his patience pays off, over here in Ireland we have a couple of our own Loch monsters, but I do doubt it's existence. Regardless it is always interesting.
Notification squad!!
Adly2501 hell yeah
Keep going mate✌️💖
I like this channel :). Interesting stories.
Wow awesome this video
i seen this myself with Heather rignt after seeing Michael at the bar you work with us over in heartville
He gone hone now , given up
I admire his selfless diligence, yet he'll be waiting when he's bones. Maybe someone will make a monster and put it in the loch. Then he can FINALLY be at peace. Because there is nothing remotely paranormal in THAT body of water. Unfortunately.
They need to keep the myth going so they can keep Tourists coming, there’s no monster people 🤷♂️
The fact that he seems to admit that it could be something as simple as a catfish should hint that perhaps he has a better grip on reality than most people do. I wish that it was something more substantial like a leftover dinosaur but most likely it is something more mundane and unexciting. So what if he's living in a van down by the river, that has to be a nice place to be, most homes would be lucky to have such a view.
❤ Steve 👍
i hope he finds what he's looking for
this is amazing omgg
Anyone know what the outro music is? Sounds like Audiomachine maybe?? But not sure...awesome video!
A angel of the lord with a chain and key is out looking even as we speck prophecy
"...and no, he's not a wacko, it's just his thing". Um, no he is indeed a wacko.
RESPECT
Why dont they dive there?
ayyyy my brother from another mother
Supposedly in new guinea they gave different dinosaur creatures. Possible there
The chances of anybody finding concrete evidence of an aquatic organism by watching the surface of a gigantic body of water nearly two miles long and at points nearly a thousand foot deep,with visibility below 6 feet in depth of nil are virtually nil,but at least he's not looking for a plesiosaur or other incredibly unlikely explanation.As he says they're more likely to be members of the fish or marine mollusc family,or possibly even marine worms such as bristle worms.
Why didn't he just cast offer up about tree fiddy?
I think it’s a stergon
If They Want To Hunt The Loch Ness Monster Why Dont They Just Send A Underwater Drone To See It.
melli a yeah thats what i wanna to do but yeah that would be easy to hunt this creature
Hey guys
Think thats great, if I had the financial resources to live that life, I would do, love it
Doesn't Nessie loves bagpipe
Do people like search the loch by like scuba diving and setting up cameras or no
they've done that lots of times, the problems are ice cold currents that are dangerous, very low visibility, hundreds of caves, and the immense size of the loch.
He should do air b'n'b. I'd go!
Why not scuba dive
I wonder if this guy plays Monster Hunter?
Luv that ,🍀
don't hate me,I believe he will see loch Ness,DON'T HATE ME
Spring gamer I hate you.
It’s not a myth it’s real in dino times
I know this guy he’s my friend
I don't believe in the Loch Ness Monster. But follow your dreams man! I'm into cryptozoology and I'm open to the existence of unknown creatures. Who knows what is out there...
we call this spiritual crytid as serpent king n queen or naga not as a dinosaur that extincted eons ago . People who have seen them as giant eel with horse liked head with horns or crest .
I'd laugh if the whole time Nessies on the other side of the planet. XD
alone, in a van, by the Loch..... so dramatic :D
WITH AN OWL!!!!!!
He can’t really be called a ‘hunter’ though, by definition hunters hunt, catch and kill their prey. He has done none of these things. Only sits and watches
you can hunt with a camera.
well he need a boat

Katie Hall Good Read
How does he earn money?
Tomy Bialek like it said he sold his house and he lives in a van , you do the math
I think they mentioned the little Nessie models that I make, they definitely included shots of me making them. people come along and occasionally buy them, I don't need much.
@@stevefeltham4350 Wow, I never imagined the man himself to reply!
reminds me of scooby doo
it's not even real..poor man
A man has to have a hobby i suppose. There's fuck all to find though
1h
It's all real !! God's an astronaut,Oz is Over the Rainbow and Midian is where the monsters live
Uuummm... the people who created the myth admitted it was a prank...
Did nobody tell this guy?
The infamous Photos was a prank ,but the myth was around centuries ago before that.

loch ness is the first hoax in the planet lol
Deserdof Cactus next to religion
religion isn't a hoax it's just ancient people trying to explain complicated things
That's patience right there.
I can empathize. I drive through a large forested park on occasion looking for Bigfoot. It's an area that has a sightings history, but I don't really expect to see one and am not sold on whether the creature exists. The fun is the search in a peaceful setting that has many other animals you can spy and _just maybe_....
Rock on, Nessie Man!
There was a movie about a boy who befriends Nessie when he was little. It's starring Alex Etel. Maybe it's inspired by this guy. edit: movie title: Water Horse: Legend of The Deep
Btw is it safe to play and swim in the Loch Ness water?
"Loch Ness" (1996) is a much better film if you want a nessie movie, used to scare the shit out of me when I was a young child :P
LochNezz a horror movie
Yes it is safe.
Maxircus I remember watching that movie, I was about 6 years old then and I cried at the end, I can still remember watching it
I know its only a myth but I wouldnt swim there anyways hahahaha who knows xD
“No, he’s not a whacko.” I’ll determine that for myself, thank you.
It's only a dream come true if you find it. Otherwise, you've spent your entire life staring at a lake.
(I'm french)With my english professor,we watch this video so thanks you for this job !
what is the final music? :0
I need to know this.
What a Crazy Guy
Siemore Pekker like you
If only those older men he saw when he was a boy told him he was wasting his time LOL! Bro it don’t exist. Back in the day they didn’t have internet so it’s understandable but doing this shit NOW with all this technology?! LMAO BRUH
This guy has an amazing story.
and then what the fuck
Never seen him with binoculars yet . Posed for TV. I'M a local and we live on the water
.. well you won’t be finding him cuz he is way deep in water I went on the boat and that’s what they said
What about if theirs a hole underground to the other side of the other lake by lock
For some reason this guy and his home reminds me of Luna Lovegoods Dad.
he will free his people from this thing call him jesus
Steve feltham your a legend. 😃❤👍
He's basically wasting his life for something that doesn't exist. How Nice 😂
ha, ha ha! I'm free to do the thing I love doing, and you call that wasting my life. I hope you get to be as free as you can possibly be , because only then will you have any valid opinion about how others choose to live their lives.
The power of a personal testimony
I think one mans 25 year search for "nessie" with only one obscure sighting pretty much tells us there is no "nessie" and never was, but it's a tourist attraction so many people in and around the loch will benefit from the myth and the reason to keep it alive is purely commercial. Do your own research, sightings at best are very sketchy and a lot are fakes, I have never seen, nor has any scientist it seems seen any irrefutable evidence of nessie whether in video, stills or sonar, and lets face it look at the technology nowadays, really a prehistoric monster can hide in the loch in these advanced technological times, complete nonsense. I hope he's not claiming unemployment benefit that you and I are paying for so he can "nessie" watch. Maybe if he had spent 25 years of his life researching some cure for the worlds major diseases I might have had some respect for him but "nessie" watching for 25 years really what a waste of a life but then again he didn't have to work hard like me for 40 years of my life. I should have applied for "nessie watching" at the job centre when I left school.
levathian is loch nessmoster

2nd comment....yay?
6th comment!
interesting.
He seems to enjoy his lifestyle and that is more than most people do. I imagine it is peaceful watching the sunrises and sunsets over the lake.
Mr. Feltham will never get to actually see Nessie, because the guy who faked the famous 'Nessie' photo came forward a few years ago and told how and he did it.
I would feel sad for him but he seems to be enjoying his life as is.
