Alaskan Blob

[Spooky]

Totally reminds me of Creepshow 2. The one with the raft and the man eating oil slick!

Entertaining write up about it YouTube video as well.

I know there are newspaper links for this but can't anything besides on a blog. It was in our newspaper here. I'll keep looking.

I think it's been proven to be some kind of algae but I heard that they found bird bones and feathers in it. Jellyfish, a whole slew of stuff stuck in it. Makes it more exciting. My brother in law is my kindred spirit when it comes to this kind of stuff......he says he read somewhere that scienctists say the ground shifted and this stuff came out of it. I don't know where he found that info or if he was just trying to make it more exciting but that's what I know.

That Creepshow episode, I believe, was titled 'The Raft'. I was obsessed with it when I was a kid. Years after that (because we were lake kids and were always swimming) I was paranoid about swimming out to the raft. What if? Right?

That is a cool story, but scary if it is true. I'd like to see a close up video of it. Make sure you post anything else you find about it. I would love to hear more.

LOL. Me too. That one was my favorite!! The hitchhiker one was pretty cool too. "Give me a ride lady!" I still say that when I see a hitchhiker. ;D

It turns out the blob is marine algae.
I'm still thinking some weird alien goo or underground secret slime. Facts won't change my mind!!!!

Nope it's not marine algae, it's a monster! I KNOW it is, I've already made up my mind.
