Video: Lake Seljord 'Sea Serpent'



Selma, the so-called “Sea Serpent” that lives in Lake Seljord (Seljordsvatnet) obviously would have to be a Lake Monster, akin to the Loch Ness Monster. The location is near the inland town of Seljord, a municipality in the county of Telemark, Norway. The town’s coat-of-arms was created in 1989, and shows the “sea serpent Selma.”

According to most who have seen the supposed watery cryptid, Selma resembles a giant eel. The first eyewitness accounts date back to the 18th century.

Davies, author of Extreme Expedition: Travel Adventures Stalking the World’s Mystery Animals, writes:

“Between 7 and 9 second in, there is a distinct white line approx 1/3 of the frame down (using the shoreline as your starting point). The barbs of the tip are visible as it breaks the surface of the lake.”

Loren Coleman at Cryptomundo.com is requesting a more decernable screen capture from the footage be forwarded to him for inclusion on his site.
