Gonna point out that Lake Michigan has a Stonehenge aswell that is over 10,000 years old. I would like to try to visit some day as I think it would be fun.
You should like Michigan is awesome Michigan is pretty cool the further north you go the better a lot of people don't go up north north and I mean like by Cadillac, traverse City, Mackinaw, escanaba, Gladstone. It is actually pretty warm up north in the summer. Very sandy ...
@@sunloved9202 What an idiotic comment, “a lot of people don’t go up north” and then you include Mackinaw in that list. Mackinac Island, a destination that sees MILLIONS of people every year.
@@NorthernChev What an idiotic comment. Macinac Island: population 500 in the winter, up to 20,000 through the summer does not equal “MILLIONS.” By your measure you’d think it was Detroit Motor City MF.
Yes indeed. Mottled from cyclical cataclysms. It's clear. Look up wormwoodite. It's a deep blue crystal that's spongey in nature. All it needs is pressure to burst like geysers and then the liquification of it all. Which is pretty interesting. We keep finding structures under layers of mud.
@@Xlr8torZ28 well, if you want to be technical. Atoms are just energy, they have nothing solid about them. What makes matter solid is entropy and the electromagnetic field each atom generates. So, no. Solid matter, including ourselves are not solid. We are just a bunch of cold electromagnetically stable atoms. However, the earth isn't like Swiss cheese. Limestone is the most common stone to be worn away creating cave systems due to the calcium and deterioration by acids into calcium carbonate. The glaciers stripped the basin of that layer and most other sedimentary layers that had built up over time. In fact, in Michigan some of the oldest exposed rock layers, are from the carboniferous period. But the fact that there is, so much sand is because glaciers and water. The sandstone layers were worn away. The entire area between the Appilation Mountains an the Rocky Mountains was an inland sea. Before that, it was ocean floor. Which is part of the reason why Petoskey stones are so abundant in Michigan and along Lake Michigan's shoreline.
Possibility: In their effort to understand the formation they inadvertently unplug the lake’s drain, and swoosh- it all drains away to the sea through an underground cave network.
@@gs1100ed Yeah, like underground cave networks don’t even exist anywhere in the world right?! And at about 580 feet above sea level that water doesn’t even want to bother finding a path to the sea. 🙄. It’s like OMG 😳 caves don’t even exist and even if they did we know it would be because ghosts 😱 were mining ⛏️ for gold 🏴☠️💰back in the day.
If you can think it, it could be possible. Need examples? Just look at your phone. Once a so-called "pipe dream", is now reality. Without your imagination, nothing would be possible. Have a nice day.
Good thing you painted over it with that cool ocean swatch in MS Paint. The last thing I need right now is to be scratching my head. Thanks NBC 26, you're the real heroes!
blue holes are typically where an underground river surfaces. I've never heard of that term being used for an underwater spring into a lake that doesn't have an independent expression. Do you remember where you read that what what they are referred to? I'l like to look it up. thanks.
@@tjh4115 I worked in Erie Marsh, an early research wet;and. The land-based blue hole I know of is there. Others are offshore at that end of Lake Erie. And a spring is where an underground flow surfaces; if you want to call that flow a river that's fine with me.
Too bad a lot of scientists accept “theories” rather than try to disprove or prove them anymore. Not to mention science that try to are blackballed and there work seen as “fake or misinformation”
They are not sinkholes. They are military depth charge testing sites created by the Manitowoc Shipbuilding Company which built submarines during WW2 and did the testing in Lake Michigan in 1941.
If YOU know that, couldn't the people in the video have uncovered that history?! When they aren't intentionally gaslighting us, they can't even provide decent news.
Similar has been found and studied in Alpena, MI. They think it's kinda like "lungs" where the flow changes direction to and from the lake throughout the day. I hope someone reaches out to the researchers there since they have a head start (Thunder Bay, Lake Huron)
No. The sinkholes in Alpena and Pigeon River Country are due to the subsurface rock being Limestone. It's basic Karst. Nothing magical. Just remnant cave formation/ vertical shaft formation. If you look at the sinkhole pathway in the Pigeon River State Forest E of Gaylord, they are in alignment. It's possible, maybe probable, that there are horizontal passages connecting them at depth. Vertical shafts form Independsntly of horizontal and connect depths of dissolution. The bedrock is Lk Mi is Dolomite & Limestone- Dissolutional type rocks. Nothing magical here. Just basic Karst.
@tjh4115 the researchers had to investigate to determine what you repeated here - which means they have knowledge of the general processes that COULD cause this, as well as those they confirmed in that area. All I'm saying is don't waste years getting to that point. Call the folks with a head start. A conversation doesn't cost anything and has tremendous opportunity attached Sorry, but you seem to be just replying with an authoritative "no" to try to flex your knowledge. It's good knowledge, but don't be so negative before anyone even discusses it. That's unwise when dealing with geological processes
@@seanjones21 well i am a specialist in the subject. 5 yrs in college. decades of field experience. was once recognized as "famous" in s small circle of scientists. so there's that. and given my advanced age, trying to reach out and share knowledge is typically received with ageism. so there is that too.
@@tjh4115 I respect your experience, but this is RU-vid. None of us know your CV or background and we're part of the "general public". You know, the folks who pay for the grants. I don't mean that negatively, but we do have thoughts and sometimes they're useful. Sorry I struck your nerve
Reminds me of the “Carolina bay” lakes and depressions of eastern North and South Carolina. They are all oval shaped and oriented in the same direction. Some have filled in to the point that they no longer hold water, but they’re still evident. Scientists argue over the origin of them, some claiming meteor strikes, others saying high winds as the oceans receded caused them, and even some maintaining that they are spawning beds of some massive prehistoric fish!
It was a meteoric impact by a breaking up body that partly hit the Laurentide Ice sheet as the bigger piece hit at the PeurtoRican Trench, pushing earth off her axis. The place discussed here is where the impact crater should be in that scenario and remember that there was a few miles of ice at that time in this spot. The ice blasted into space and the atmosphere, and came down across the eastern seaboard to become the Carolina Bays. Ice and water impact zone. This was 12,900 years ago according to scientists. This happened at 'The Younger Dryas' boundary.
Lake Michigan is not so bad, Superior is the worst one, they didn't like, they still don't because it's so cold that if you die in it they'll never recover your body. Lake superior's is a inland Sea. Its very unforgiving but so beautiful if you ever get a chance if you're not from Michigan go to pictured Rock so beautiful. Upper Michigan has over 470 waterfalls
The water would slow down the desent of any asteroid or comit, and the temperature difference would cause it to explode. Unless it was a really, really big one, but anything big enough to cause that would be a huge ecological disaster to the entire planet. Unless it fell really long ago before the last ice age and that would be irrelevant because the ice shoves would have destroyed it 🤷♂️. I really don't think it's anything from space.....my guess is geological pressure tubes explosion or something along that stuff.
OR.... it's from one of the several fault lines that run through the state and lakes. The Keewanaw peninsula is formed from an ancient lava flow, iron mountain.... We've had earth quakes in Michigan, several in the last 20 years.
White man was in a CAVE in these times. A neanderthal. Same time the ethiopian black were building pyramids in the sunlight. Beginning mathematics. Beginning letters and numbers. Whites were busy with his arab brother in the caucus mountains caves. True history. The sunrays were hotter then. It's the reason they don't want global warming. It sends them back into the caves again. Vikings had a prediction of the sunlight getting hotter again on their skin. They called it ragnarok.
@@denisehaley9271 the mid continental rift isn't a fault line. The mid continental rift formed back when Pangea was breaking up and the North American plate and African plate were moving apart. The rift was the result of the plate being pulled and then after the two plates separated the rift closed back up. The rift, as you mentioned does go through the Keewanaw peninsula but it also goes through Michigan as well as Minnesota and Wisconsin. Lake Michigan and parts if Michigan and Wisconsin sit in the middle of the rift like a tongue. So, yes Michigan has experience quakes but they aren't centered anywhere near the rift. They are, in fact, centered several hundred miles south in Missouri. So, most Midwestern states have experienced those same quakes with greater damage.
There are a lot of these holes located in 80 to 150 feet of water as well. I always called them "Meteor holes" because that's what they looked like to me. The holes are great spots to catch fish at certain times.
Genesis 7:11 In the 600 year of Noah’s life on the 17th day of the second month on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth in the floodgates of the heavens were open. Proverbs 8:22-31 this verse mentions the springs of the deep becoming fixed when the heavens were established
What's the difference between a sink hole on land and one under the water? Cause where I live in Michigan there's two sink holes on my family property and a lake that's not far from there that's considered a bottomless lake cause it's a small lake that the sheriff's department has gone down some 250ft and didn't find the bottom.
Just speculation on my part.....there were supposedly numerous civilizations before us and even before the glaciers that formed the Great Lakes. Maybe there's an empire under all the sediment of the lake bed. Isn't there something similar to the Bermuda Triangle in Lake Michigan? So many interesting and fun things in our world.
@@Satchmojones He spoke clearly. He was off the shoreline near Two Rivers Wisconsin in 480ft of water. He scanned the bottom and found some steep drops of 40ft. This is uncommon in Lake Michigan because most of the lake bottom is like a bowl with little to no significant structure particularly the bottom half
I have also north out of Two Rivers. Had to laugh they are using our fishing sonar in the vid's. When I looked with downscan it was cloudy so I assumed they were springs bubbling up, not sink holes.
"New science, new data. Which is just scratching the surface" Translation- oh, Bob had a crazy idea that makes a little bit of sense. We got nothing else right now.
@@patriciamcneilly9748 Jeez, sorry Pat, I was indulging in a little rogues humor - a reference to the OceanGate implosion last year. Not interested in a ride to the bottom of Lake Michigan, ever. Love the lake, and all the fantastic geography and places all around it, though. Spent some time snorkeling and camping around Rock Island off the tip of Door County one summer, as well as hitchhiking (!) up and down the coast. Cheers! 🍻
Yup, safely from a satellite, that's exactly how i'd explore this phenomena. Not in a boat, "we're gonna need a bigger boat.'' Not in a scuba-Steve costume. But from a long way away.
Im glad you believe that also... everything covered in mud sand and water. They had tunnels through out the continent. I believe that the city was under what we call Michigan. I've seen my own evidence but its hard for people to fathom it.
@@tjh4115 if mankind disrupts the earth causing an “event”, is that considered geological science? I’m not saying you’re wrong, but not everything is so black and white. Drilling can cause “science” to happen. And yes, USO’s (unidentified submergible objects) are real, according to our government. The Navy had seen them. The Air Force had seen them. Civilians had seen them. It has been covered by every major news outlet. Anything is possible.
People- please learn more science... The term sinkhole is as misused as the term Theory. A better term is collapse feature or depression. Sinkhole denotes a specific type of collapse feature. Frequently when folks say they have a Theory they should be saying hypothesis- an educated guess. Until you know facts, the less specific term should be used. But i'm Not holding my breath. Even educated folks seem to be getting more stoopid.
@@GeorgeThree oh gee. That is so important. Thank you for letting me know. It would be great if you pointed them out specifically so I & others don't repeat the same mistakes. I will say some spelling errors could be from phat fingers. But zi digress.
Was looking the Mystery Rocks area on google earth today and then saw this, it seems to me Canada and the Northern US is hiding so many geological mysteries that we are yet to find as technology improves, very cool!
Genesis 7:11 King James Version 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
sinkholes in the lake? so there's running water deep enough under the lake to hollow out terrain without collapsing the sea bed right away? and depending on how big these sink holes are, wouldn't it change the surface level of the lake?
Is funding starting you dry up? Now you've "found" these holes in the floor of this lake .How many mapping expeditions have been run over the years now in 2024 you suddenly find these holes ? What now how many millions are going to be spend on find about out these holes ? Is it going to cure world hunger or solve Cancer or world peace or put roofs over people heads if not why spend that kind of money? Dont get wrongits interesting but maybe start finding private finance for these projects instead of the taxpayers
What's always blown my mind is how 30 miles of dirt and 300 feet of elevation are all the keeps many of these lakes form eventually draining down Fox to the Mississippi.
A diver for some reason exploring shipwrecks in Lake Michigan just went for a swim in Kenosha and was reported to have never returned, and now I get this video… Lake Michigans waters do not sit well with me. Was it a sink hole that got the diver? Or something else…
It's probably where the lights fly out of. People have been talking about weird shit there for years. Even the native Americans talked about lights dancing in the sky
