Shark 1, Phelps 0

The most successful swimmer of all time couldn't beat the shark. Phelps even had a special wet suit that mimicked the sharks movement though the water!

Phelps swam 800m of swimming! The shark swam the course in 36.1 seconds and Phelps time was 38.1!

Undersea Treasure Worth $175million Found

Recraft and Edited Copy: British treasure hunters found a chest of gold worth 175 Million NZ dollars. The gold was found in a G erman WW2 boat (a shipwreck)! The ship's name was SS M inden Adolf Hitler sunk the ship on purpose.  My guess why he sunk it , I think he sunk it because he wanted the gold!  They found the ship 190 km off the southeastern coast of Iceland! The hunters had to apply to the Icelandic government to open the chest. The hunters said whoever finds  it keeps it!
