SaltyFlats User ID: 46790668 United States 09/16/2014 09:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I saw bright orange lights underwater a good way offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. This happened April of 2012. I have no idea what there were and I'll leave it at that.

A standard yellow school bus being driven along like it was a boat. It was mounted atop some floats with the drive shaft through the bottom to a prop. Steering wheel had ropes to a rudder. Some island guy island hopping buying, trading and selling legal stuff like blue jeans, shoes, fruit, tobacco, about anything you could think of. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 41360524 United States 09/17/2014 09:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Green Flash at sunset off the WSW coast of Jamaica. Never believed it was real until I saw it myself. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27648326 This can happen anywhere on the ocean when the sun sets. It's a brief green flash at the point the sun goes down over the horizon. Most sailors have seen it one time or another. |

SaltyFlats User ID: 46790668 United States 09/17/2014 09:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I saw bright orange lights underwater a good way offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. Quoting: SaltyFlats This happened April of 2012. I have no idea what there were and I'll leave it at that. How many? How big? How far underwater? How did you feel seeing them? This was off Florida's west coast. 3-4 round orbs of orange light. Hard to estimate the size, I guess the size of a modern day Ford F150. They were several hundred yards offshore then one started moving towards me on the beach. It moved inside the swim buoys and then stopped. To be totally honest, I was frightened. I have no idea what they were... they moved back offshore and faded out underwater.

A giant Atlantic Ray off Grand Cayman while scuba diving, followed me like a dog and then swam next to me all the way to the surface. Must have been 8feet from nose to start of tail, amazing thing to see |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 58347212 United States 09/17/2014 12:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A merman swam alongside me when a current pulled me from shore until I was safe again. He put his hand on my back, looked in my eyes before he swam off with telepathic communication. He had a ridge where his spine was that continued to the top of his head. Hawaii main island. |

But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing.” – Thomas Paine |
