Last year, a mysterious UFO-shaped 18.2m disc was discovered in the bottom of the Baltic sea by a Swedish ocean exploration team using sonar. Now they have managed to get near it and take photographs. According to diver Stefan Hogeborn, they have never seen anything like this:
During my 20-year diving career, including 6000 dives, I have never seen anything like this. Normally stones don’t burn. I can’t explain what we saw, and I went down there to answer questions, but I came up with even more questions.At first, the divers thought that the disc was just some kind of rock cliff. But closer observations revealed something different:
The object appeared more as a huge mushroom, rising 3-4 metres/10-13 feet from the seabed, with rounded sides and rugged edges. The object had an egg shaped hole leading into it from the top, as an opening. On top of the object they also found strange stone circle formations, almost looking like small fireplaces. The stones were covered in something resembling soot.The divers say that there is a 985-foot-long path that can be described “as a runway or a downhill path that is flattened at the seabed with the object at the end of it.”
Peter Lindberg, who is one of the founder of the Swedish Ocean X Team, has always been clear that they are not claiming that this is a spaceship of any kind, but they don’t know what it is:
First we thought this was only stone[...but no]. And since no volcanic activity has ever been reported in the Baltic Sea the find becomes even stranger. As laymen we can only speculate how this is made by nature, but this is the strangest thing I have ever experienced as a professional diver.

If so, they've hit the motherload. Pieces of that thing will be sold by the ounce!
Well as long as it gets ya to Valhalla.
I'm sure if you publicize the time and location in advance plenty of professional photographers will show up. As it stands, TV news videographers have taken numerous clips. I take no position on what some of these things are or aren't, just that they're unexplained.
First of all, during the Ice Age, that area would have been under a sea of ice.
However, IF it’s anything genuine, and man-made, it could be a structure made of stone and built on ice...and then over time things got warmed up and one day it crashed through into the sea, more or less all at once; and that 900-ft trench might have been carved by the currents passing over it.
Or maybe the whole thing’s just a marketing ploy.
Giant fossilized horseshoe crab that Neanderthals worshipped and made into an altar before a massive subsidence event caused the whole shebang to go sliding into the briney deep, lol.
Does it have swastikas painted on it? I once read a cheap sci-fi book where some future astronauts found a crashed Nazi spaceship on the moon. The rest of the book was crap, but that part was pretty cool.
Calling people “idiots” does not help your case. It’s probably some Viking seaside barbeque that slid down the beach into the water.
Lets stop treating this object like Obama’s Past History including his missing Birth Certificate! UNTOUCHABLE!! and UNQUESTIONABLE!!
Ake Samples of it’s Construction and Materials!! Take CORE SAMPLES! Raise the Damn Thing to the Surfaceand Examine it from Stem to Stern! GOSH!! Stop making it the Mystery of Mysterys!! KEEP IT SIMPLE, STUPID! For You’al in Rio Linda, it goes like this: K.I.S.S.!
Ping to myself for later.
Thinkin’ some of the replies to THIS reply should be pretty good
A piece of junk, whatever it is.
Man...that has “bad idea” written all over it!
Why are you so devoid of a sense of humor that you resort to calling someone an idiot?
Yes, it's interesting, and some of the posts here make light-hearted jokes about it. Try to relax a little.
