Below 11 thousand meters above sea level is an underwater world full of mysteries and huge research opportunities for scientists. This is the story of the deepest place in the world: the Mariana Trench. The depth of the Mariana Trench makes it one of the deadliest places on the planet. Always in the dark, the water temperature is below 0 degrees. What makes it nearly impossible for life as we know it to exist is the extreme water pressure. What creature can survive in such conditions?
The Mariana Trench is the deepest place on the planet. On January 23, 1960, a manned expedition was sent to the unexplored water world for the first time. A submersible called the Trieste, piloted by oceanographer Jacques Picard and US Navy Lieutenant John Walsh. The most important question was whether life exists in such extremely harsh conditions.
Now we know some of the animals that live there, but not all. There are theories that suggest the existence of creatures that elude our imagination. And even that, if they managed to adapt to our oceans, they would be a real danger not only for marine fauna. Which we know, but also for humanity. And perhaps this is just the case for the cryptic video posted on Instagram.
Mysterious creatureA video posted to Instagram on March 18 shows surfer Ryland Rubens riding the waves in San Diego, Southern California. As part of the Regional Wave Of The Winter application. Although his surfboard skills are certainly impressive. The video attracted attention for a completely different reason. If you look closely to the left side, you will see a strange and very large object chasing the surfer.
Gabrielle never mentions the strange object inside the waves that seems to be haunting Rubens. Which caused all sorts of reactions from his followers. As seen in the images, the mysterious creature has a really strange appearance. Especially considering his almost spider-like form with four long limbs. Even after a few seconds, you can see the second creature. Or perhaps a sequel to the first, so it would be huge indeed.
Creature from the depths of the oceanSome have speculated that this strange object could be a sea creature from the depths of the ocean. And that he appeared for unknown reasons. While others have offered more surreal interpretations such as an underwater pterodactyl and that it is an extraterrestrial being. But the most skeptical do not share these opinions and assure that this is nothing more than a large group of algae. Washed from the bottom of the ocean.
Admittedly, the object itself is definitely strange, especially given its almost spidery appearance. Not to mention what later turned out to be his tail. Unfortunately, we have no further information about him or images to confirm his true origin. Or his physical form: where is which part of the body.
But at this stage, we must remember that although the oceans cover more than 70 percent of the Earth. Only 5 percent of the Earth’s oceans have been explored and mapped, especially the ocean below the surface. The rest remain largely undiscovered or invisible to humans.
As we already commented at the beginning of this news, much of the Mariana Trench remains unexplored. Therefore, its inhabitants are completely unknown. What appears in the video will most likely remain a mystery: whether it was a strange sea creature, algae, or some other object.
What do you think of the mysterious creature inside the waves? Strange sea creature, algae or other object?
