      Let me ask you a question please and it's gonna sound stupid lol. I've been watching all these lost at sea videos ,and I'm wandering has anyone ever been lost in the lake ? Like for days on end ans then been found alive or is it possible to reach shore from any point before dying ,if you're a good swimmer ??

    At 2:46, it is Presque Isle State Park, not Presque All State Park. I live one mile from it in Erie, PA. At 2:21, you should have shown a picture of the U.S. Brig Niagara from the war of 1812, instead of some modern camouflaged boat. We have a sailing replica of it here in Erie.

    I live next to lake Erie and it only boarders on Canadian providence, Ontario! Lake Ontario does not even go that far east to boarder Quebec! However the St Lawrence Seaway that exits out of it does!

    I was born and raised in Toledo. At the time I lived there, 1939 to 1961, Lake Erie was very badly polluted! We frequently went swimming in it anyway. Bay Point Park on the west side of Sandusky Bay was one of our favorite places to go.

    I water skied on Lake Erie when I was a kid . It was rough and water was cold ( probably early summer ) but I had a great time . I was born in Buffalo but Bell Helicopter moved my mom and dad , sister and I to Texas . We went back often for long visits . I had an uncle and aunt that lived on a farm and others ones that had a summer house on Like Erie . We would sometimes spend the 4th of July there and burn massive bonfires on the beach . Some people gathered driftwood for weeks preparing their fire . It was great . That uncle was also a fireman and he did a lot of ice fishing too on the lake . Good Times !

    Imagine believing Lake Erie isn't flat and level, but instead has over 5 miles of alleged curvature from Toledo Ohio to Buffalo NY.
    Yep people who believe they live on a ball floating and spinning 1038 mph😳 think the flat and level lake waters curve over 5 miles across the 212 miles of lake waters from Toledo to Buffalo 😂.
    Sheeple I hate to break it to you but water has actually been used for over 1000 years to level things.
    It's just what water naturally does it's a fundamental property it's natural science 🤷.
    Water in your bathtub is level and flat👍, water in your small neighborhood pond is level and flat👍, water in your local Great Lake is level and flat👍, water in the ocean is level and flat👍🤔.
    Water above a convex/ curved surface will always be level and flat it's just a fundamental property of water.
    You can lead a indoctrinated globe believer to flat and level water but you can't make him think🤷.
    Basically they will get mad at you and call you a derogatory name for trying to help them understand the natural fundamentals and physics of water 😑🤷.
    I ❤️ you all even if you hate me for trying to make you see the truth.

Your basement conspiracy internet theories doesn't compare to the knowledge and experience of better men and women. You think typing a lot of nonsense makes you look intelligent.

This is how you get your gratification and attention, spouting the dumbest conspiracy theory on the planet. Knowing you will get people to give you attention.
