  1. Lol, secret ancient tunnels. One of the most enduring “urban legends” in Romania. I would have never thought to stumble upon it on this site 😀 no, there are no secret tunnels beneath the Black Sea or between Romania and Bulgaria. But the flood theory might be real. I mean the only question is if it happened “instantly” (as in a matter of months, or a year) or gradually and it took decades

  2. Interesting presentation. Thank you Bill!
    I’d take issue with one thing though: at one point he says the Black Sea is “always calm.” It absolutely is not! There can be ferocious conditions at any time of the year. Even in summer, swimming conditions can sometimes be potentially lethal, with huge waves and dangerous currents. Even a strong swimmer can quickly be in severe danger if he’s daft enough to enter the water after an electric storm. After such a storm, the sea can be very rough for three or even four days at a time. Then, the water will suddenly appear calm and tranquil as a lake.
    Another interesting thing for swimmers is that in the summer the surface temperature can reach 28-29°C. But many beaches have mountain stream run-offs. Without warming, the temperature can drop 10° or more; quite a severe shock. You just have to swim like hell to get back into warm water.
    There are abundant fish, yet Georgia and Ukraine do not maintain professional fishing fleets. In their Black Sea coastal regions, the Turks do and so do the Bulgarians. Does anyone know why this is?
