Have you ever wondered what your current house used to be or who lived in this house before you? Perhaps your home was a forest centuries ago or the home of wild animals. Now, thanks to underground discoveries, we can go back in time. Still, many things remain a mystery.

Today I'm going to tell you about the extraordinary things that some people buried in the ground and then found at the feet of other people.

Ford Popular

You've probably had to use a shovel at least once in your life. Try imagining the story I'm going to tell. While digging, consider that what you hit with your shovel is not soil, but something solid. After a while you realize that it is metal. The first thing that comes to mind is that this is a treasure.

This is exactly what happened to English John Bradshaw. He was working in the garden as usual on a sunny day. While digging the ground, he found a large iron object. After digging some more, he found the now very rare Ford Popular. This rusted car had been buried under the ground for half a century. Inside the car was an old radio, Medicine bottles, and a few milk bottles. After telling his story to the press, Jonh managed to find the previous owners of this house. The son of a veteran who fought in World War II saw the news and explained that he played games with his brother in this car as a child. It later turned out that his father bought this car in 1958. However, 8 years later, the car broke down. The family had no money to have the car repaired. So they decided to bury the car in the garden, hoping that the next owner would be surprised to see this extraordinary treasure. Indeed, the next host was very surprised by this.

Canned Gold

According to the World Gold Council, 190000 tons of gold have been mined throughout human history. however, only a small fraction of this precious metal was accidentally found. Guess what prospectors who spend their precious time searching for gold think when some people find gold without any effort. For example, a California couple took their dog for a walk, as they do every day. This couple felt something under their feet. It sounds incredible, but it's true. This duo found the largest buried treasure in the history of the United States. When they left the house, they noticed that a different metal can was stuck in the soil and started digging. They also found gold coins in the cans. So they kept looking. It was later revealed that these cans were filled with about $10 million worth of gold coins. Therefore, these two decided to keep their identities secret. According to the couple's representative, finding buried gold coins is quite rare. Generally, these precious metals are found in shipwrecks.

Supersonic Jet Fighter MIG

Artists and musicians express themselves in different ways. This can get very strange sometimes. Some people prefer to put on flashy shows, while others prefer to set up large-scale equipment. A few years ago the Rudolfinum Gallery in Prague was celebrating its centennial exhibition. British artist Roger Holmes wanted to do something that would stay in the minds of visitors for a long time. That's why he decided to bury 21 Soviet-made fighter jets weighing 5 tons under a thick layer of soil. Sounds like a strange decision to you too, right? Many of us can only imagine the military's reaction when they learned that Holmes intended to bury the plane instead of flying it. Because this is against the rules. A few years later this aircraft can be exhibited in museums. But Holmes didn't care, because he had another idea. The artist focused on human consumption potential. With this work, Holmes suggests that the meaning and significance of what people admire is questionable. The artist wants us to think that it might be time to think about consuming less. We also need to make the world cleaner. Just think about the facial expressions of the people who will find this huge plane 100 or 200 years from now.

Nuclear Bunker

Recently, the demand for shelter in the USA has increased significantly. Some people build shelters under their houses and use them as warehouses, while others set up a modern shed in their garden. People try not to think about bad things, but having a shelter isn't a bad idea either. At the very least, the bunkers can be a place for your family to meet up or use as a warehouse. Living in the United States, John Seems needn't worry about his own peace of mind. Because he has a nice, reliable bunker in his garden built in the 1960s. The relationship between the Union of Soviet Socialists and the United States was somewhat strained at the time.

When she bought a new home in 2015, Seems knew there was a hidden bunker somewhere in the area. However, he could not find this shelter. He eventually spoke to an expert who used a metal detector to locate the bunker. Under a small hill, John found a metal hatch leading to the nuclear bunker, which was fine. The bunker contains a spiral staircase descending 3 meters and an arched area. There is enough space here for the whole family. It's unbelievable that the bunker hasn't been used for so long. However, this can be a suitable place to use for many different purposes. The bunker can be used as a club playroom or even a small cinema.

Well, have you ever thought of digging up your backyard? Perhaps there is a great treasure waiting for you there. can't it? :)
