Most conspiracy theorists just write stuff on the internet, or talk to their friends about their crazy ideas. But
then there's this guy.
Treasure-hunter Bill Warren of California has reportedly launched a search operation in the North Arabian Sea to discover the body of Osama bin Laden, as he does 'not believe in the statement given by the US government' that his body was buried at sea.
As the article points out,
Warren insisted he will go ahead with the search despite the fact that the use of hi-tech equipment and several boats would make it an extremely expensive affair.
This idiot is actually planning to waste significant time and money looking for a single body that was buried at sea, all based on a ridiculous conspiracy theory. When he fails to find the body,will he even consider the long odds against locating a single weighted corpse at some unspecified place in the sea? I doubt it. It's far more likely that his failure will just reinforce his conspiracy theory beliefs.
I've never done a study of this sort of thing but I bet when a human body is put in the ocean, it doesn't just come to rest on the ocean floor all nice and neat like a coffin. There are a lot of animals down there that make their living scavenging and salt water is incredibly corrosive even at surface-level pressures. Would even the skeleton survive for very long?
ReplyDeleteGood point. Unless it is sealed in some sort of coffin, it probably wouldn't last too long.
