Bottomless Lakes

[Cod]

Do "bottomless" lakes truly exist? Or is this just another one of those great urban legends?

[DemoN.cX]

you do know that the earth is a finite space.

[Cent]

The deepest lake I've been in is around 120 feet at its peak.

[saut]

deepest lake in the world is around 800 ft iirc, in mongolia somewhere

edit: nevermind, The deepest lake in the world is Lake Baikal in Siberia, Russia. It is a natural lake that is 5,712 feet (1,741 meters) deep. That's more than one mile straight down!

I don't believe in bottomless lakes, but my wife seems to think that because some park says its the "Home of the bottomless lake" means they do. Its reasons like this that make me want to lead a Bobby Brown-style life.

theres no bottumless lake, but there is a bottomless pit, you jump down and you enter another dimension where you can talk to jesus, and there are all sorts of foods falling with you so you wont ever get hungry because god knows you wont ever die from falling.

[SkullSav]

Theres an inherent flaw with your question because even if there was a bottomless lake, we would never know. I mean at what point would people stop looking for the bottom and just go "YEP! THAT BITCH IS BOTTOMLESS"

Also, the earth is round. Think about it.

i think mine is around 240 when the lake was full that is. now its barely 150 ft deep in the spot we found. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Fusion]

i think she should find this bottomless lake and drown herself in it. that way there is no DNA to ever even think of cloning someone this dumb.

we would know. infinity is only possible in our mind. its not tangable.

[SkullSav]

then justify pi?

[Streetwolf]

Draw a circle with diameter 1.

Bam, you have tangible pi.

YAHTZEE!

What about BIZARRO WORLD?!

[polarity]

For being in General Discussion, this thread is actually starting to deliver.

[saut]

no, bizarro world has no bottomless lakes. they do, however, have bottomless pajamas

[dakine`]

Out of left field streetwolf coming up big with a rhetort including math. Well done (seriously, I like it.) and saut, are pajama's the opposite of lakes?

[M.SoulTaker]

Loch Ness in Scottland is roughly 900ft deep.

[rasputin]

I forgot where in Russia, but there's a lake over 5,700 feet deep. It's the deepest lake in the world.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bizarro_World

In the Bizarro world, a cube-shaped planet known as "Htrae" ("Earth" spelled backwards), society is ruled by the Bizarro Code, which states "Us do opposite of all Earthly things! Us hate beauty! Us love ugliness!

[saut]

*clenches fists

[dakine`]

No no, its cool I did like how you brought it into this conversation. Really cesspool worthy. I have spent a great deal of time there training for my e-battles. Well fought.

[kno[x]]

Fixed.

The deepest pit in the cave is called the bottomless pit even though it isn't truly bottomless. Thank you carlsbad caverns.

[Lanx0r]

I do believe the deepest lake in the US is Crater Lake?

I was there a couple of years ago... pretty stunning. Read somewhere that it was almost 2,000 ft deep or something.

[Mulchman MM]

Precious Roy was once selling a bottomless pool on Sifl & Olly. Best show ever.

you are correct, its 1949 feet deep.

[shooterstour]

lanx how exactly was a lake being deep stunning to you? I assume you made your decent to the bottom to enjoy its depth :)

depth wasnt the stunning aspect, yokel. Google a pic of it and you will see why its stunning. :P

[Gogeta]

bottomless lake = lake that goes through the earth and out the other side forever?

[caedere]

Loch Ness in Scottland is roughly 900ft deep.Nobody truly knows how deep that lake is since the monster is guarding it. :)

[Bad Luck]

if the lake is bottomless, how does the water stay there?

[rasputin]

if the lake is bottomless, how does the water stay there?

If you mean the mantle of the Earth evaporating the water leaving simply a pit, then you're right. If you mean the water would fall out the other side of the Earth then I'm baffled.

[wads]

ignoring all the heat in the earths core, a truely bottomless lake would mean there not being a bottom, and the water from the lake would all be concentrated at the center of the earth. due to gravity.

[AntioK]

this thread was great, thank you.

[Bad Luck]

that was more of a rhetorical question, but thanks for answering it i guess

[Zechs]

What happens if you swim down it and fall into the core :>

[zack]

wads you being asian does not entitle you to answer every rhetoric question with a mathematic or scientific answer.

What is the definition of a lake? At what size does a body of water become a small ocean or sea? (ie. Red, Caspian Sea)

I live near monteray bay, a protected section of the Pacific Ocean, that has a crater in it twice the size of the grand canyon, but since its underwater it is not counted as the greatest canyon, I believe its over 2 miles deep.
