Episode: The Ningen Floats Our Boats!
Description: The Ningen, ((δΊΊι) in Eamonn language) is a Japanese cryptid that is said to inhabit the sub-antarctic oceans. Reportedly observed on multiple occasions by crew members of government-operated "whale research" ships, these so-called Ningen are said to be completely white in color with an estimated length of 20 to 30 meters. Eyewitnesses describe them having a human-like shape, often with legs, arms, and even five-fingered hands. Sometimes they are described as having fins or a large mermaid-like tail instead of legs, or even tentacles. Are there any truth to rumours of these creatures? Or is it just an internet myth?
