A man was walking along a remote stretch off the bowlful Yaks river.

When he saw what he thought was a woman, drowning rushed to help.

When he got close, he realized that it wasn't a woman at all.

Creature was the size off a human, but it had a pale, shimmering body.

He says he found himself rooted to the spot, as if hypnotized or under a spell on the creature made its escape.

The report says that the man believes that what he saw Waas on ancient beast known in South Africa as the diamond I've heard.

Eyewitness lives here in the town of Saw Brock.

There's a wavy line forming a bit of a semi, sir, that could represent the surface of the water.

So you got most of them just under the surface.
