The cold temperature prevents bacteria from breaking down the bodies, therefore they don’t float to the top. They become preserved in a soap-like white consistency, perfectly preserved in their permanent resting place.

2024-11-11 17:05:16 +0000 UTCGreat classic Canadian song and Lightfoot is a damn Canadian legend. I’ve been listening to his albums straight through from first to last. And I gotta say, he’s got some hidden gems in there!

2024-11-11 14:07:24 +0000 UTCRelearned about this song a few years ago watching a documentary on the Great Lakes shipwrecks. Heart wrenching to hear the backstory of the ship and crew's final voyagé, that it didn't have to happen.

2024-11-11 07:40:58 +0000 UTCI love songs that tell a story. So sad that all 29 crew were lost , at least not forgotten with this song 💔. I'm lying awake as usual and went down a rabbit hole, the freighter was only 100 feet shorter than The Titanic! That must have been a momentous storm.
