A Google Earth user thinks he may have discovered a gigantic building in Antarctica.
The sighting was sent into YouTube channel MrMBB333 by a follower.
In footage shared yesterday, he zooms in on the location to find what seems like a huge square emerging from the ice.
“From top to bottom it’s nearly 2,000ft – unbelievable,” the narrator explains.
“I didn’t think it was that big. It’s six football fields long – that’s massive.
“It’s very large, very symmetrical and looks like a building. This could be a random piece of ice I suppose.
“It is kind of offshore – maybe it is some sort of building but that is huge.”

His video has already been seen more than 17,000 times since being posted.
Viewers had mixed reactions to what the “structure” could be.
“The square looks like a huge oversize battery to me,” one wrote.
Another commented: “Nick's square has awesome shadow showing height.”
And a third added: “Could it be a huge monolith from an ancient civilisation?”
But others were less convinced, suggesting it was nothing more than an unusual-shaped block of ice.

Back in August, another Google Earth user believed they had spotted a gigantic statue of a face.
And just last week, one person claimed to have spotted a huge two-mile-long ancient wall rising above the ice.
The so-called monolith was compared to a ziggurat – a massive structure built in ancient Mesopatamia and Iran.
