Submerged Strange Artificial Structures that Send Shivers Down Your Spine
=========================================================================================
Delve into the depths of some of the world's most intriguing dive sites, where you'll find a collection of unusual statues and the grizzly remains of sunken ships.
In Arizona's Lake Pleasant, a menacing Jason Voorhees statue has been submerged since 2018, while another chilling figure, Freddy Krueger, lurks at the bottom of a flooded iron ore pit in Minnesota, where he joined his fellow horror icon in 2013. These eerie statues were reportedly installed by the art collective "The Minnesota Melee."
The SS President Coolidge, a luxury ocean liner that met its untimely end in Vanuatu during World War II, now rests at the bottom of Chuuk Lagoon in Micronesia. The ship, which sits at a depth of 65-230 feet (20-70 meters), offers a unique dive experience, allowing explorers to swim through its decks and holds to see the various military and luxury objects left behind. The ship's deck guns, tanks, and cars are covered in barnacles, while smaller items like gas masks and medicine bottles can also be found.
Chuuk Lagoon is also home to around 60 wrecks, some of which contain the remains of people who died during World War II battles. The lagoon's waters are slowly but surely corroding the ships, and without intervention to preserve the structures, they'll eventually crumble away.
Neuchâtel Lake in Switzerland is another unusual dive site, where a horrifying statue of a shark awaits divers at the bottom of the lake. The shark statue, which was used as a prop in a short film called Choc au Lac!, is thought to have been left in the lake after filming wrapped. Neuchâtel Lake is also home to a metallic dragon sculpture, a model lunar lander, and a statue of a dog.
Lastly, in a flooded iron ore pit in Minnesota, divers can explore not only the Jason Voorhees statue but also a Freddy Krueger statue. This unique dive site offers a chilling experience for those who dare to venture into the depths.
These underwater statues and sunken ships offer a glimpse into the past and a glimpse into the imagination, making them must-visit destinations for adventurous divers.
