Ancient preserved sunken cypress forest discovered!

No offense but I'd be less skeptical of the Futurama explanation of the Lost City of Atlanta than this, haha.

Well we could add 'The Family Guy' they're pretty reliable and there was no rebuttals for their presented case. I'm losing my screws...

The forest had become an artificial reef, attracting fish, crustaceans, sea anemones and other underwater life burrowing between the roots of dislodged stumps.

I would love to see footage of this.

I live near the area and Ive heard rumors about it for a couple of years. Apparently Hurricane Ivan, Dennis or Katrina (all hit the area pretty hard back to back to back) uncovered the stumps.

Their exact location, like any good non public fishing spot is kept VERY secret.
