The Exclusive 8 Pictures of Sea Monsters That Shook The World!

Your parents always told you that there were no such things as monsters, but ... THERE ARE!

#1.Trunko
Trunko was seen alive, off the shore of Margate, South Africa, where it was fighting with two killer whales, then washed ashore. Beached for 10 days, it was given the name Trunko for the elephant-like trunk it had. The 47 foot long creature then went back out to see, nobody ever the white furry creature again. it was the only creature found alive.


It was described as being 47 feet (14 meters) long, 10 feet (3 meters) wide and 5 feet (1.5 meters) tall. Its name was given by a strange appendage resembling an elephant’s trunk. According to reports, it was covered with a snow-white fur and had a lobster-like tail.


This is the only globster reported as being alive when it beached and remains unidentified to this day.



#2.Montauk Monster

This strange looking creature showed up on the beach in Montauk, New York, looking part cow, part bird. It was speculated that it was a raccoon, but was disproved.

These Ponds Look Photoshopped, But They Are Very, Very Real


These weird geometric lakes might look Photoshopped but they are very real. These are potash evaporation ponds, and they are located in Moab, Utah. While they might seem out of place, they do exist although, as you probably guessed, they are artificial.

The brightly colored ponds bring an unusual kind of beauty to the dusty Utah landscape but they are also useful. These are the drying ponds for the Intrepid Potash – the world’s largest producer of potassium chloride or potash. Potash is used all over the world in a variety of ways, but it is first and foremost known as one of the three most important fertilizers in the world.

Potash is harvested from deep within in the Earth’s surface. It is extracted by injecting hot water into the reserve, where it then melts and is pumped to the surface. From there, it is funneled into these shallow ponds and allowed to evaporate, leaving only the crystals behind. The evaporation process takes about 300 days.
