When its been confirmed to be just a bunch of floating reeds held together by its own roots. The only reason its a perfect circle is because it gets pushed around by the wind and mild currents. Also “What on Earth” has covered this island-

That is the literal fucking perfect place to make a castle. It already has a moat what else could you ask for

The Aliens be like: let’s leave this island in this pond and let the monkey men freak out about it.

"El Ojo" is a perfectly circular floating island with a diameter of 120 m, near the delta of the Paranà river. Unlike other floating islands present in different areas of the planet, which generally form from large roots that detach from the shores , however, this one is truly particular, due to its shape and constant movement: it rotates by brushing the edges keeping everything perfectly circular, pushed by the wind, you think.Being in a remote area, it was discovered in 2016 by the director Sergio Neuspiller, looking a place to shoot a horror film, the same fascinated by the unusual shape discovered that it appears from satellite maps since 2003. The director himself led a first expedition to study the phenomenon, discovering that the water around it is unusually clear and much colder

El ojo means: The eye

This looks like an oxbow lake that formed over a natural spring. This is caused by a river turning in on itself, so when the rest of the river dried up, the oxbow lake retained its shape due to the water from the spring beneath it.

"El ojo" in Spanish means "The eye"

Ghosts? 👻 😂

When an unknown thing found

This happens sometimes on freezing lakes. The wind and water keep ice spinning which causes the round shape. It's rare, but it happens. I'd imagine the same thing happened with the island. It just took longer.

This is certainly a natural moss and root conglomeration detached from edges on the top of flooded marshland depression. What's underneath is anyone's guess (likely an underground river system which made a sinkhole in the ground, basically a flooded cave, as per lowered t° of the water). Smaller floating islands on mossy marshes and lakes exist in multiple places in my country (Latvia).

“El Ojo” is spanish for “The Eye”, just putting that out there for those that didn’t know

That sometimes happens with rotating ice in a river.

I like the way it sounds when he says it " El ojo" 😄😄 is hilarious!!!

Sample the water to ensure its actually "typical water", send a scuba dive team down to look and explore underneath to see what else may be down there.

All those oxbow lakes from our science textbooks: "Finally, my time to shine!"

The island comes from the location located in the Paraná Delta from Buenos Aires, Argentina. It rotates due to the channel of water entering it as well as under ground currents, and the hot and cold temperatures usually cause vortices all contributing to it's rotation. It's rolling it's eye at these "scientists" you always hear about, what are their names? That's the real question... It's always "the scientists"... Finally someone/something that understands. Thank you El Ojo!

My theory is that erosion under the island caused it to disconnect from the main land. It floats, and with winds , it probably moves the island in multiple directions.
