Quote:July 1942. Two pilots, Babe Alyesworth and Bill Hammersley are flying over Alaska’s remote Lake Iliamna in a routine flight. Everything’s going smoothly, so they decide to just look out the window and enjoy the sights. That’s when they saw something horrifying just lurking beneath the water. It was a massive aluminum-colored creature swimming below the surface. Its elongated body and fish-like tail were unlike anything they had ever seen. Years later, sightings of the creature began piling up. Fishermen claimed their lines were being ripped apart by an unseen force that could even bend metal hooks. Flocks of swans and other wildlife started mysteriously disappearing, and pilots reported shadowy, log-like shapes moving through the water. Some witnesses described the creature as a monster. Others believed it to be an undiscovered beast, swimming in the cold, unfamiliar depths of the lake, whatever it is, one thing is certain, there is something in the water and it’s bigger than Jaws This is the bizarre true story of the Iliamna Lake Monster, one of the most mysterious legends in the wild waters of North America.
