The divers exploring a ‘UFO-shaped’ object at the bottom of the Baltic Sea say their equipment stops working when they approach within 200m.
Professional diver Stefan Hogerborn, part of the Ocean X team which is exploring the anomaly, said some of the team’s cameras and the team’s satellite phone would refuse to work when directly above the object, and would only work once they had sailed away.
He is quoted as saying: ‘Anything electric out there and the satellite phone as well stopped working when we were above the object.
‘And then we got away about 200 meters and it turned on again, and when we got back over the object it didnt work.’
Diver Peter Lindberg said: ‘We have experienced things that I really couldnt imagine and I have been the team’s biggest skeptic regarding these different kind of theories.
‘I was kind of prepared just to find a stone or cliff or outcrop or pile of mud but it was nothing like that, so for me it has been a missing experience I must say.’
Member Dennis Åsberg said: ‘I am one hundred percent convinced and confident that we have found something that is very, very, very unique.
‘Then if it is a meteorite or an asteroid, or a volcano, or a base from, say, a U-boat from the Cold War which has manufactured and placed there or if it is a UFO…
‘Well honestly it has to be something.’
