Floating Objects

The UFO in a Chinese
mountain does not stand for Unidentified
Flaying Objects, but Unidentified Floating
Objects.
It has long been
whispered that Celestial Lake (天池) in Long White Mountain (长白山) is a home to some giant
monsters. Some believe it, religiously; some
don’t, also religiously, but most people
just mildly curious, waiting to be convinced
by evidence. Over the years, there are
eyewitness’s testimonies heard, and
dubiously blurred photo images to be seen,
but beyond that, real hard evidence never
materialise. Until now, or at least it is so
claimed.
On the early Saturday
morning, 8 September, local TV journalist Mr
Zhuo Yongsheng ascended the southern slope of
the mountain with a tour guide, intended to
film the sunrise. The dawn broke at about
five, when the first rays of sun reached the
mountain range and reflected on the lake. At
5.26, an unidentified object floating in the
water caught the tour guide’s attention and
he in turn urged the journalist to take a
look. The journalist turned to see the water,
through the camera lens, and thus a
20-minutes short documentary on the legendary
monsters was produced, while the ufos kept
their commanding presence on the water
surface for nearly one and a half hour.
According to Mr Zhou’s
observation, the wet monsters not only have
fins but wings. (Which shall make them both
unidentifed floating objects and flying
objects).
That morning, the
monsters seemed totally in their element.
Sometimes they skied in a row, other times
they surfed in pairs, and from time to time
they dived, leaving huge splashes on the lake
surface. But at all times, the dark devils
appeared to be well trained and highly
disciplined, acting as if were under strict
instruction.
The Celestial Lake is
the biggest and deepest volcano stream in
China, with the earliest written records of
the Long White Mountain monsters dating back
150 years. But it is in recently 20 years the
monstrous presence become more evident and
frequent, especially since last month.
These dark devils are
commonly described as having a tiny head,
narrow neck and a bulky body, very much like
what dinosaur would look like. Others would
depict them in the shapes of a small boat, a
water buffalo, a large dog, and a massive lid
on a huge wok.
