The 107 Year Old Shipwreck Mystery 😱

Recently, a century-old ship was discovered near Antarctica, which is considered to be one of the most well-maintained vessels in the world. This ship belonged to the famous explorer, Ernest Shackleton, who had the misfortune of getting it trapped in the thick ice of the Weddell Sea. As the ship started to sink, the crew abandoned it, but the captain kept a record of the approximate location of the wreckage. The team of scientists who found it confirmed that the captain's estimate was correct. Using an underwater search vehicle, they were able to locate the ship. The ship's name, etched on the stern, was clearly visible in the footage. The extremely cold water in the area helped to preserve the ship, making it in remarkably good condition for its age. Thank you for watching the curious collective.

Anyone else immediately think of The Charlotte from National Treasure?

I forget the name but it’s funny that it was called that. Also if someone were to make cigar boxes from that 107 year old lumber that would be cool.

If it was well maintained it wouldn't have sunk! Just saying.
