A bizarre blue 'mutant' fish has been spotted in a lake, according to conspiracy theorists.
Jaw-dropping footage posted on YouTube shows what appears to be a brightly-coloured 4ft creature close to the surface of Gaston County lake earlier this month in North Carolina, US.
The clip was posted on YouTube on a channel called Disclose Screen, which has also posted videos claiming to show Bigfoot and extraterrestrials.
A caption alongside it said: "Can someone please identify this anomaly swimming around on a small lake (approx. 3.5 acres)."
It split opinion, with one commenter, Stephanie Robinson, writing: "I really think that it is a dead peacock.
"The object on top , looks like a foot of a fowl.....it's floating upside down, and possibly something pulling it around from below."
