Surprise Appearance on C2C
Posted by: Loren Coleman on May 16th, 2007
I just received a telephone call. I’ve been invited to make an appearance on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory tonight (overnight May 16th into the morning of May 17th, 2007) between 10:00 PM – 11:00 PM Pacific, 11:00 PM – midnight Mountain,, midnight – 1:00 AM Central, 1:00 AM – 2:00 AM Eastern.
C2C seems very interested in the new Mystery Giant Turtle Photos! But I told C2C’s producer Tom, right off the bat, the photos probably are of a decomposing whale. They still want to talk about cryptozoology in general.
George was a little rushed at the end of my most recent show on the 23rd of April, when I discussed the new edition of Mysterious America: The Ultimate Guide to the Nation’s Weirdest Wonders, Strangest Spots, and Creepiest Creatures.
Past shows are carried online.
About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
Scientific American 1883
Captain Augustus G. Hall and the crew of the Schooner Annie L. Hall vouch for the following.
On March 30, while on the Grand Bank, in latitude 40 10, longitude 33, they discovered an immense live trunk turtle, which at first thought to be a vessel bottom up. the Schooner passed within 25ft of the monster, and those on board had ample opportunity to estimate it1s dimensions by a comparison with the length of the schooner. The turtle was at least 40ft long, 30 ft wide from the apex of the back to the bottom of the under shell. The flippers were 20ft long. It was not deemed advisable to attempt its capture. The trunk turtle could be a Leatherback turtle, they never stop growing as long as they live.
So it`s probable, but not likely.
