Simon Dinsdale has insisted that his father's two-minute film of the Loch Ness Monster is genuine.
The film originally shot in 1960 by Tim Dinsdale was sent to the RAF at the time and deemed to show an "unknown inanimate object". Now his son Simon has resparked interest by claiming to have witnessed the monster himself twice.
Simon Dinsdale, a retired police detective from Essex, insists that the two minute film recorded 50 years ago by his father, a famous Nessie-hunter, is genuine. The footage, shot by Tim Dinsdale in 1960, is one of the best-known images put forward as evidence by those who insist on the existence of the mysterious creature.

I wonder what video it was he made? I did not see a link. Here is what I found on Wikipedia. Dinsdale film (1960)In 1960, aeronautical engineer Tim Dinsdale filmed a hump crossing the water in a powerful wake unlike that of a boat.[37] JARIC declared that the object was "probably animate".[38] Others were sceptical, saying that the "hump" cannot be ruled out as being a boat,[39] and claimed that when the contrast is increased a man can be clearly seen in a boat.[38] In 1993 Discovery Communications made a documentary called Loch Ness Discovered that featured a digital enhancement of the Dinsda...
