10 Unexplained Paranormal Events That Changed History
2. Bloop Suggests There Is Life Out There...Underwater
Humans spend so much time looking to the stars for weird and wonderful creatures, they almost forget how much there is still left on Earth to surprise us. After all, 95% of the world's oceans remain unexplored by humans below a certain depth, the pressure is impossible to survive for us. So what kind of weird creatures are hanging out down there?
Imaginations were further stoked to that topic by Bloop, a recording of a sound deep beneath the waves taken by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which was really low-frequency and crazy powerful, unlike anything they'd ever heard before. The closest comparison was icequakes (icebergs falling apart underwater).
Some were fine writing Bloop of as that, but others less so. The source of the Bloop was about 1,760km from the location of Cthulhu in HP Lovecraft's stories, which is terrifying. Obviously that Elder God isn't the one making a racket down there, but Bloop reminded us there is intelligent life out there, waiting to be discovered...but it's not in the skies.
