I don't know what it is about the ocean but
its just kinda creepy. I like water as much as the next person but
the ocean is pushing it. For real, the ocean is an amazing, mysterious
place with secrets we have yet to uncover. Sometimes we find the secrets - and theyre
pretty disturbing, sometimes the secrets wash right up on our shores. My name is Danny Burke and this is the top
10 scary things found in the ocean Very quickly I just wanna alert you guys to
the fact that we have new merch - this was only possible because you guys showed so much
interest in our previous designs so now we have brand new designs on our tshirts, hoodies
and so much more - go and see what your favourite is - mine is the black one, as you can see,
I often wear black clothing! Starting off at number 10 we have Truk Lagoon. This is the worlds biggest ship graveyard. Its the site of a WW2 battle between the US
and Japan. At the bottom of the lagoon now lies 60 warships
and 200 aircraft, frozen in time below the waves. Divers have found a many skeletons of the
dead soldiers, sailors and airmen who died in the battle. These days, Truk Lagoon is a popular area
for tourists - with only some of them aware of what lies lurking in the nearby waters
… Coming in at number 9 we have Manfred Bajorat. In 2016, the mummified body of Manfred Bajorat
was found by fishermen on a yacht floating off the Philippines. I just wanna warn you guys, the picture youre
about to see is pretty graphic so skip ahead now if you don't really wanna see this sort
of thing. Manfred was found slumped at his desk in a
mummified state. He had been sailing the world on his yacht
for 20 years. Its thought that from the way he was sitting,
death was unexpected, perhaps from a heart attack. His mummified state may have been caused by
the dry ocean winds, hot temperatures and salty air. Next up at number 8 we have the Gulf of Corryvreckan. This is a constant, massive whirpool off the
coast of Scotland. Its caused by complex tidal forces and geology
that combine to create this swirling pool of death. A documentary team once equipped a mannequin
with a life jacket and a depth guage. They threw it into the whirlpool where it
was sucked down. They wondered if it would ever come back up
again but eventually it did. The depth gauge told them it had been all
the way down to over 650ft so yeah - don't go near that thing … At number 7 now we have The Ghost Ships. Every year, ghost ships with bodies show up
on Japanese shores. When this first started happening a few years
ago, everyone was confused as to where they came from. Then, it became clear that they were actually
from North Korea. At first people thought the bodies were fishermen
who were trying to escape North Korea, but when some ships were found with live crew,
the men said they wanted to be taken back to North Korea. It turns out the ships are just old and keep
being pulled out to sea with no GPS to get back. Coming in at number 6 we have The Titanic. You may have heard of this ship before. The passenger liner suck on its maiden voyage
from the UK to the USA on April 15th 2012 - resulting in the deaths of over 1,500 people. For over 70 years, the location of the wreck
was unknown. Then, in 1985, its remains were found on the
sea bed. Diving crews since then have returned haunting
pictures of this watery grave. Its drawn even more attention since the famous
Titanic movie of 1997. Seeing these pictures are kind of disturbing
for some meal - it makes what happened feel a lot more real … Next up at number 5 we have The Mariana Trench. This is the deepest point of the Earths oceans. Its maximum known depth is 10,994 m - thats
over 36,000 ft. Youll notice I said maximum KNOWN depth there - thats because scientists
arent 100% sure how deep it really goes, every decade the number gets revised. Experts were shocked to find creatures living
in the trench. - this was very surprising to them. They though that life couldnt exist there
because of the immense pressure. The fish and crustaceans that have been found
in these mysterious depths look just as strange as youd expect … Moving on to number 4 we have The Great Blue
Hole. This is a giant sinkhole off the coast of
Belize in central America. While the edges of the hole are relatively
shallow, the hole itself plummets to a depth of 407 ft. The formation of it has taken place over the
past 153,000 years - at one point it was an open air cave before being flooded by sea
water. Diverse are allowed to visit it they have
24 hours of diving experience - however many people put off by the ominous feeling of the
depths below them … Next up at number 3 we have the Ice Finger
Of Death. The real name for this phenomenon is Brinicle. Its a downward growing hollow tube of ice
of descending salt water that forms in exremely cold ocean temperatures. The icy finger will work its way down to the
bottom of the shallow water and when it gets there - it spreads out to freeze everything
in its path. The BBC captured some incredible footage of
it doing just this - starfish and sea urchins were frozen solid when touched by the Icy
Finger … Moving on to number 2 we have The Angler Fish. Its widely agreed that this fish is the scariest
fish in the ocean. At first glance, the angel fish already looks
scary. They live in complete darkness, a mile underwater
- in an area known as -the midnight zone- … they use a lure on their head thats lit
up by bioluminescent bacteria to attack other creatures. Its prey think theyve found a shiny fish in
the ocean depths to eat, but when they get close, the Angler Fish is there to greet them
with a toothy mouth straight out of hell. And finally at number 1 we have Thonis-Heracleion. This is the lost underwater city that was
discovered in the early 2000s off the coast of Egypt. Until then, historians had only heard about
it in ancient texts - they presumed it had been lost forever. They found incredible Egyptian relic including
this 5.4 m tall statue of the god Hapy. In the murky depths, among the fishes, archaeologists
have found god coins, stone monuments and slabs with ancient text carved on them. Theyve been exploring the area ever since
but even today - its thought that 95% of this city lost in time is still yet to be discovered
… Alright guys, that my rundown of the creepy
and mysterious things found below the waves - now I wanna know what video you would like
to see next? Were always open to suggestions - so don't
be shy, let us know. As always, thanks for watching and Ill see
you all in then next video.
