Antarctica is one of the most mysterious regions in the world. One of the mysteries about that frozen place is the existence of the Ningen monsters.
Various speculations say Ningen is a man-made creature, some say he comes from outside the planet, or from the bottom of the Earth.
This creature has been caught on camera several times, although there has never been a sighting image showing Ningen clearly. It is said that Ningen is similar to humans. Its body is pale white, round in shape, can stand and walk on two legs, and has five toes on each foot.
Ningen rises 20-30 meters high and has reportedly been seen twice by humans. The following is Ningen's story based on the testimony of eyewitnesses who claim to have seen it.
First witness
In February 1992, a Chilean fishing vessel appeared in the waters of the Drake Strait off the southern tip of Argentina, which is very close to the northern tip of the Antarctic continent. A young sailor on a fishing boat stood on the deck at port side smoking a cigarette. Suddenly, he saw dark shadowy clouds under the water drawing closer to the surface.
When it leaned over and widened its eyes to find out what it was seeing, the unidentified object swam swiftly towards the fishing boats sailing on the ocean.
His form is like a big man. It seemed that the part that was exposed to the surface of the water had white skin, and there were two hefty front legs or fins that swayed rapidly. The scary thing is, it looks like a head that looks exactly like a human face.
The sailor was frightened and immediately shouted that there was a sea monster. Perhaps out of surprise, this 'sea monster' swiftly dived into the dark, deep Antarctic Ocean.
Another crew member who heard the story said that what he saw was probably just an Antarctic killer whale coming out of the water to breathe. But the sailor did not understand why the whale had a face like a human. The creature also does not have a dorsal fin when it emerges to the surface.
After all, the killer whale's color was black and white, whereas what he saw was a pale white figure. Despite the explanations of the sailor's friends, stories of the 'monster' encounter quickly spread among the crew members.
Second witness
In 2002, the Japanese expedition team was surrounded by a blizzard in Antarctica. Team members had to stay in the camp all day to record the collected data.
As the weather wore on, the wind and snow became even stronger. Suddenly, they felt a violent vibration from the layer of ice under their feet, like some kind of giant was slowly approaching them. As a result, the team members looked outside the camp through an obscure window, but the scene in front of them suddenly gave everyone present a feeling of dread.
"I saw a vague and huge figure vaguely in the depths of the ice and snow. The figure had human-like limbs and was more than 30 meters tall." That was the confession of one of them, as quoted by INF News.
The monster seemed to be attracted by the camp lights and was slowly moving towards the camp. The people were frightened and immediately turned off all light sources. In the darkness, the large humanoid creature circled the camp, as if searching for something. It wandered around for about ten minutes before slowly leaving the camp.
After that, many investigators refused to stay in the camp because they were too scared, and the investigation work had to be stopped.
But the problem didn't end there. When the expedition team returned to Japan, they forwarded videos and photos of these strange creatures to the relevant departments, although most of the information and pictures were kept secret. However, there are still a number of images exposed on the internet, which immediately sparked heated discussions among the public.
Ningen is suspected to be a creature created by scientists
The mysterious creature that appears in the two incidents is believed to be the Ningen. In November 2007, Japan's Mu magazine wrote an article discussing allegations that Ningen was an artificial organism secretly produced by Japanese scientists and placed in Antarctica.
At that time, the public was suspicious of the Japanese government's whale research project. Some people believe that it is a new creature that was created on purpose.
There is also a suggestion that Ningen is the evolution of cetaceans. The order cetacea, which includes whales, dolphins and porpoises, originally came from a land mammal that was a bit like a crocodile, so it is possible that some dolphins or other cetaceans rejuvenated and developed a pair of front legs and became a new species like the Ningen.
Moreover, in Japan, a dolphin was caught with body parts that have a shape like long legs. This phenomenon is extremely rare in organisms. This explains why it is difficult to see Ningen.
