That is awesome! It's fascinating how much exists at the bottom of the ocean.

That's pretty damn neat. I can't believe they discovered something that's been sitting down there for so many years. And to find it in near perfect condition is amazing as well.

Not to point out the obvious, but it was found in Lake Ontario...however, if you were referring to how much can be found in the depths of large bodies of water, I 100% agree.
I love to snorkel shallow wrecks, and I am going to try to become diver certified to get to the deeper wrecks. I can't imagine what we could find if we had the capability to go down to the Mariana trench for instance. There has to be serious treasure and countless priceless artifacts in the belly of our oceans. Fascinating is definitely a perfect word to use.
