Visiting sable island is on my bucket list, a dear friend of mine worked there and told me about it. Oh how i miss him
Great video! Nice work, educational and informative.
Sable island horses have an Egyptian origin. If you view the oldest map of sable island and compare it to images of ancient Egyptian boats you will see the map is identical to the boats shape . You will also see rhat the size and colour of the horses is a perfect match to those depicted inamcoent Egyptian art .
*in ancient Egyptian art.
Prob stranded in a shipwreck . I bet there's artifacts to be found on the nearby seafloor
The perfect island for Greta Thunberg, but without the extraction of natural gas. Only wind turbines and solar panels keep Sable Island from sinking. m.ua-cam.com/video/yAZxo_R_gxI/v-deo.html
My Father used to fly for a company and landed many times at Sable to drop off supplies and people. Twin engine Beechcraft if I'm not mistaken. Enjoyed this video.
I’m sorry but your info is not right I live west of that island you have some thing correct but need better information on it your not allowed on the island except to to research or to work in the weather station or to clean the island from garbage and debris and they look for oil and gas spills they don’t do gas or oil exploration on the island it’s not allowed in 60 years and need to be as far as 1.5 miles away from the island in risk of contamination. I can tell you info for 5 days
