Radar Spots Massive Underwater Anomaly Off Coast of Africa
It's been a turbulent week, literally. Seven days ago the earth started shaking in the Northeastern portions of the US. A 4.8 magnitude was registered on the Richter scale not far from New York City.
Yes it rattled the tea cups in the cupboard here I ain't lying.
Listen, it might not be something to write home about if you live in California but New York hasn't felt anything like that for over 200 years.
Then there was the Solar Eclipse. We were at 90% Totality here in Brooklyn so I made the obligatory walk over to the local park to see how things would pan out. There was a lot of hoopla in the build-up to the event, with some states declaring a preemptive state of emergency and some threatening to send out the National Guard.
Some suspected an imminent Alien Invasion but what did those tin-foil hats know? Nothing. The alien invasion had taken place long ago. And well, we lost. Too bad.
One positive outcome from the eclipse was that The Beatles began trending again. Yes, the song Here Comes the Sun was streaming in the Top Ten. And rightfully so.
I also got a great business idea. I’m going to start selling T-shirts that say: I WENT TO THE SOLAR ECLIPSE AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS STUPID HEADACHE (DM me for inquiries).
I did in fact feel weird for days afterward. And I didn’t even stare at the bloody sun. I wasn’t the only one.
Reports were coming in on social media of people complaining about strange symptoms. Some experienced physical illness, headaches and insomnia while others felt "wiped out" and "weird." I can personally attest to some of those symptoms myself.
There was other weirdness looming in the shadow of the eclipse.
CERN had called off its scheduled start up of the Large Hadron Collider slated for April 8.
And then, in one of those glitches where the Universe blinks at you, Nobel-prize winning physicist Peter Higgs dies on that very day. April 8. During the Solar Eclipse.
Higgs of course proposed the titular Higgs boson particle, aka "God Particle," which was proven at the Large Hadron Collider in 2012.
I guess, as a play on words, you can say, "God is Dead."
R.I.P. Mr. Higgs.
Here's another strange development some are equating to the Solar Eclipse.
Reports came in on April 9 from the ocean wave monitoring system called Ventusky which registered a large and growing anomaly occurring in the Atlantic Ocean.
A ginormous cluster of waves over 80 feet high cut across a swath of ocean 2000 miles wide off the coast of South Africa. The anomaly being registered is larger than the state of Texas
Lasting for 24 hours before vanishing, the graphic of the event is going viral on social media and sparking a lot of debate. Of course the internet swings for the fences.

Some are suggesting it's a huge USO (Unidentified Submersible Object) mothership. Others are saying it's CERN or Godzilla.
Even Newsweek dipped into the High Strangeness pool suggesting the model might show "the path of a giant underwater sea creature, like the fictional Cthulhu, or a submerged alien craft." They then quickly pivoted to potential "model error" and possible data fallibility.
Venusky is a meteorological app operated by a Czech company InMeteo providing real-time data on weather patterns collated from respected sources including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
The company's website boasts: "We have created an entirely new system of displaying waves. Through the use of animated arcs, our visualization clearly differentiates the direction of movement and height of both wind waves and swells."
Early Friday morning, Ventusky posted on X:
"Despite numerous reports of UFOs or Atlanteans launching from the ocean, yesterday's image of giant waves near Africa was due to a model error. Fortunately, our provider, the German Meteorological Institute, has already resolved it, and the forecast is fine."
Ventusky's flippant response was hardly endearing to the skeptics and frankly, it struck as unprofessional. As well, investigators of the anomalous have learned over the years to be suspicious of official government reports which skew the facts to their narrative.

The internet sleuths chimed right in. The X account @I_AmJohnCullen pointed out that the same anomaly occurred at the same location on February 1, 2024. What are the chances of the same exact glitch occurring at the same location?
Another person simply commented, "Please provide full details to alleviate the masses and to prevent conspiracy coverup theories."
If not a glitch, what then?
Let me jump into the game and give my two cents worth. In my opinion it sounds like an asteroid impact or even a Tunguska type of scenario.
The Tunguska event was a 12 megaton explosion caused by an asteroid over Eastern Siberia, Russia on 30 June 1908. It leveled an estimated 80 million trees in an area spanning 830 square miles. The asteroid exploded at about 3 to 6 miles above the earth and left no impact crater, though it devastated everything on the surface.
This anomaly also reminds me of something else, and if it were the case then certainly there would be those who would want to keep it hush, hush.
The thought comes to mind of the nuclear testing that was done in the Bikini Atoll by the U.S. Army during the 1940s and 50s.
Curiously enough, just yesterday, the Russians tested an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). That one was in the airspace over Erbil and parts of Iraq and Iran.
What is to stop them from testing a live warhead over a remote portion of the ocean.
Well, we're just speculating here, right?
No harm in that.
Meanwhile, a report just came in that missiles and drones from Iran are striking Jerusalem as we speak. Earlier in the day, the Russians announced that if the US retaliated then the Russians would back Iran in a conflict.
Now we're going to need to turn our attention to this development.
