(NECN/WPTZ) - A Burlington, Vermont man posted a video on YouTube that some say may be "Champ", Lake Champlain's legendary monster. A two minute cell phone video shows something moving across the lake at sunrise. WPTZ reporter Heater Van Arsdel reports that some people have more reasonable explanations for the sighting. Reaction from the public has been mixed. Many want to believe that it is mysterious lake monster, but they suggest that it looks like a baby moose or a large dog. The video was taken by Eric Olsen of Burlington in a small cove in Oak Ledge Park in Burlington.
