A pilot named Don Wood, Jr., encountered something in the Nevada desert he couldn’t explain. Although he kept silent about it for thirty-four years for fear of ridicule, in 1959 he wrote a letter to the magazine “Flying Saucers” to explain what he saw.
Wood landed his two-seat airplane on a mesa near Battle Mountain, Nevada, early one afternoon. While exploring the top of the mesa, Wood and his companion saw something about eight-foot-wide attempting to land. It was round and flat with a red belly. It stopped, and when Wood and his friend approached it, they discovered it was alive. “It was hurt,” he wrote in the letter. “And as it breathed the top would rise and fall, making a half-foot hole all around it like a clam opening and closing.”
After observing the creature for about twenty minutes, it began to pulsate. “So help me the thing grew as bright as all get out,” Wood wrote. “Except where it was hurt.”
Suddenly a shadow covered the men, and they looked to find a similar thirty-foot-wide creature descending onto the mesa. It grabbed the smaller monster with “four sucker-like tongues” and took off into the air, disappearing with incredible speed.

Bigfoot, could have taken a nice group shot of you two with Nessie. Although it would probably be blurry!
