ONE Google Earth user has claimed to have uncovered an abandoned ship in Antarctica – the truth is far more simple.

A Scott C. Waring has proclaimed to have discovered a ship lost near the south pole, but really it was just a huge piece of ice.

One YouTuber shared images of Google Earth purporting to have found a "lost ship."

One YouTuber shared images of Google Earth purporting to have found a “lost ship.”

Waring, who also went on the record to say he has discovered a pink alien on mars, shared his recent alleged findings on YouTube.

“This abandoned cargo ship is probably on its way to be recycled,” he said.

“Maybe there was a storm so the tug boat cut it loose and I found it here in Antarctica,” he added.

The self-proclaimed alien expert shared some Google Earth images to back up his claim of the so-called “cargo ship” near an ice-covered piece of land.

In the video, Waring identifies a dark grey area that he thinks could be “some kind of nuclear submarine,” though he added that he could be mistaken as he is not a “marine navy guy.”

He then makes the claim that it is likely a cargo ship, with the heightened area being identified as the “captain’s quarters.”

Waring attempts further to prove his allegations by measuring the size of the “ship” and purports it to be around 967 feet long.

The YouTuber then makes the claim that the “ship,” as well as some of the surrounding areas at some point disappeared.

“In October 2011, it was there and two months later, we see nothing. It’s gone, everything’s gone, it’s disappeared,” he said.

Despite the content creators’ claims, users in the comments said they could not see anything but ice.

“I see only ice… Stay focused on real videos please,” one YouTuber wrote.

The "ship" was actually a huge piece of ice near Antarctica.
