Bermuda Blob is the name given to two globsters found washed ashore on Bermuda in 1988 and 1997.

Description[]

The first Bermuda Blob was found by fisherman and treasure hunter Teddy Tucker in 1988 on Mangrove Bay. Tucker described the blob as 2 and a half to 3 feet thick, as well as being very white and fibrous. He also described it as having five arms or legs like a "disfigured star".

A second Bermuda Blob was found in 1997.

Explanation[]

Samples of the first specimen were analysed in 1995 and it was suggested they were from a Poikilothermic sea creature, either a large bony fish, shark, or ray. A reanalysis, using advanced genetic techniques not previously available, confirmed it was the remains of a whale. Analysis from the second Bermuda Blob's samples suggested it was a large mass of adipose tissue from a whale.
