So scrolling my Facebook feed tonight, I stumbled upon an interesting post.
It simply provided GPS coordinates and a image of Google Maps providing a Volvo sitting on a mini island. Thinking it had to be fake and having better personal security than most working in finance I copy/pasted the coordinates to Google Maps.
Sure enough at the coordinates of 41°21'16.8"N 88°47'52.6"W Google Maps shows me that there is a random Volvo at that location.
The interwebs will tell you that the water surrounding it is 40 feet deep, because the surrounding lake formed when water seeped into a strip mine. I have no way to confirm any of this, but there is infact a Volvo, apparently a 2001 one, sitting on an island just slightly larger than the Volvo itself surrounded by water.
Here is a link to Google Maps if you want to take your own look
