It is difficult to say until more is known. I believe what is needed is more deep sea dives as mentioned in the article. That way they can see it closely because scanning the surface with sonar can cause objects such as geological formations oftentimes appear to look like something else. I don't doubt the possibility that it could be down there, I just believe at this time it is inconclusive until more is known. I have to question though, will they tell us about everything that is found ? Some of the other things mentioned in the article is worth looking into also. Thanks for sharing daymoon ! Cliff

My son mentioned it to me and said the web was buzzing about it. From what I found nobody seems to be able to agree on wether it is there or not. There has been a pyramid mentioned being located in the Bermuda triangle too. So far I have found a few underwater ones being mentioned at various websights. It is interesting but being as continents change and water shifts I am not surprised really.

2000 meters = 1.24 Miles (6561.66ft) deep or put another way, 14.7 pounds per square inch for every 10 m = (2,000 meters / 10) x 14.7 = 2940 Pounds per Inch2 Titanic wreck for reference is 3,800 meters deep. And without diving to the site in a special submarine or using an AUV drone (autonomous underwater vehicle), how did they determine that the sonar scan of the 'pyramid' is an object made of glass or 'glassy like substance', without returning a sample? 'Glass' as y'all know becomes increasingly 'fragile' due to its low modulus of ductility when subjected to increasing pressure. When glass is exposed to extreme pressure gradually...it eventually crazes and explodes, and then while some scientists believe that glass has a low (below transition) temperature flow state, eg, it deforms under pressure. In either case and in other words the pyramid would likely be tortilla 'flat' due to the extreme pressure. Interesting reading regarding the technical problems involving the practical use of expensive, previously classified, deep-sea high-tech sonar. The instrument used by Ballard to find the Titanic, an ~appx 7 stories tall, 882 ft 6 in (269.0 m) long, 92 ft 0 in (28.0 m) wide, 150 ft (45 m) (keel to top of bridge) structure sitting upright on the ocean floor. Numerous investigators, beginning in the late 1940s had used sonar in attempts to locate the Titanic, all of which had failed, yet, their sonars had passed directly over Titanic's location on different occasions. The problem is the extreme depth while sonar is sound based, its like trying to send a pulse of 'fluid' water traveling at sound-speed through a block of solid water. plutronus math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/General/Glass/glass.htmlen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glassen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuba_divingen.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMS_Titanic

I wish someone would go down there and investigate it fully really. The being made of glass thing though is completely possible. Being as the ocean floor is covered in sand if that area was once shallow and hit by lightning, or an underwater volcano could have melted the sand and that bubbling up fast enough could easily create a pyramid like shape. without divers or a sub no one will know for sure

The subject of pyramids is a fascinating one. Even in this age of technical advances there are so many unknowns about these wonders of the past.How were they built ? Why and for what purposes were they used for ? Who built them and how did they distribute the architectural knowledge all over the planet? For some, during which era ? Where were many of them built ? Satellites are finding new ones all the time. What types of artifacts are being found ?
There are answers yet still so many questions.

here's another interesting site : snippits-and-slappits.blogspot.com/2012/06/giant-crystal-pyramid-discovered-in.html__________________________________________________________________________ Besides agreeing with Plutronus about water pressure, if these structures were once on land, and were either gradually submerged or in a major event, I would not expect them to be so intact. That they possibly are intact, could be some indicator of their ability to withstand pressure, and time. On the other hand, if the Bermuda Triangle area is what I believe it is, a "portal" of some type, then these objects found there can appear to come and go. The very real Bimini Road may have been built by a past culture of this Earth, but now it appears as a road to nowhere.

Actually for my nickles worth (inflation) if there were any evidence of a pyramid there...or anything possibly worth anything..the greed of humankind would have found a way to explore it (just in case it contained some valuable source of energy or a method of turning straw into gold) and exploit it. Seriously...it would have been a priority both for independent exploration and government scientists. It's not so hard to imagine how these things get started..and then 'shared'.

The commercial bathyspheres capable of diving that deep rent out around $15,000 per hour, according to Dr. Robert Ballard of Woodshole, which I previously cited. At 3,000 meters, its an six to eight hour round trip, just descent/ascent, and that's not counting the bottom time. However, isn't the entire point of the 'GLOWING' deep-sea pyramid is that it was fabricated by somebody in ancient Human times rather than being an object created by a nature process? >The being made of glass thing though is completely possible. Virtually anything is possible, however, it is my opinion that this story is at best wishful thinking. >Being as the ocean floor is covered in sand, if that area was once shallow and hit by lightning,.... Pyramids and other acute angular geometrical shapes aren't formed by underwater lightening strikes, because there is no such thing as an underwater lightening strike whether shallow (fifty to a hundred or so feet depth), or deep-sea, 3000 meters deep. Remember a pyramid has 3 or 4 flat or 'smooth' sides which come to a point at the vertex...top, it is a very unique and specific shape. Water violently expands...explodes when struck by lightening, it doesn't create, it destroys. >...or an underwater volcano could have melted the sand and that bubbling up fast enough could easily create a pyramid like shape. As for a volcanic action, well, aside from the fact that bubbling lava never creates smooth flat geometrical glassy shapes and that glow after it cools, the Bermuda area geology's last active volcano was 55 million years ago. >Without divers... Divers can't dive that deep, not even in hard-shells. >... or a sub no one will know for sure In the world there are approximately 12 submersibles that are capable of diving down to 3000 meters. Most of these vessels are owned by universities and a few are military vessels. I think there are one or two bathyspheres that are commercial that can go that deep as I mentioned above. The only reason that Dr. Ballard was able to search for the Titanic was because the US DoD loaned him classified machinery in exchange for his using it in the Bermuda/Cuba area thus creating a plausible cover story for his search of the area. The US-DoD had Ballard searching for underwater, planted off the US Coast, Chinese/French/Soviet hydrogen nuclear weapons. In any case, the 'pyramid' object, purportedly at 3000 meters, I'm curious how the discoverer determined that the object is 'glowing', and again without having traveled down there? There's no light down at those depths, the particulates in the water column attenuate ALL of the surface light, so how do folks know that the object glows? The whole story sounds like BS. Yep, I think the story is mostly wishful thinking, and I suspect that there is a monetary impetus fueling the story promotion.....? For years my gal & I were fans of the Cayce prophesies...and I grew up hearing my mother's stories about her prior life-term memories of Atlantis. It would be very kewl if someone found vestiges of Atlantis or Mu, or Ben Salem..?! plutronus

If there were pyramids under the water they would have had to have been built by people before the land was submerged. It is possible that could have happened. After all the water has risen pretty dramatically over the past 10,000 years or so. I believe it is about 300 feet deeper now than it was during the ice age. There are a lot of prehistoric ruins that are now underwater...cities and roads that were once on dry land. Humans have a tendency to build cities along the coast so a lot of man-made structures would have been very gradually submerged. Off the coast of England there has been found some megalithic circles similar to Stonehenge that are now under water. And we know that ancient peoples did build a lot of pyramids both in the Americas and northern Africa/Egypt. There are several hundred already known to exist and they still find new ones all the time. I have never heard of any pyramid that was documented to be found underwater though. If there are any, especially at a depth of 3000 meters, then the land must have sunk a lot more dramatically than anybody has imagined. If the story about the continent of Atlantis is at all true and not just a huge exaggeration then it is possible that the people who lived there could also have built pyramids. Anything is possible I suppose. I've never seen any convincing evidence to support it though. As for any pyramid being made of glass I would say that is extremely unlikely and would be impossible to confirm from just a sonar reading. If the article was implying that it only appeared to be glass because it was smooth on the outside than it would not actually have to be made of glass. The original pyramids in Egypt were smooth-sided. They were covered with polished limestone and capped with a sheet of gold at the top. That might appear to be glassy from a distance. I would have to see more evidence before I would accept any of this as being true. There are a lot of crazy stories going around the internet. This might just be another one.

We are a world full of gullible people...wanting something 'spicy' in our hum-drum lives...then when something spicy comes along we run for cover LOL
