The rock sitting atop the world’s tallest mountain is loaded with ancient sea creature fossils — which some are now claiming proves the Bible story of the floods and Noah’s Ark were real events. The rocks making up Mount Everest’s summit contain the fossilized remains of ancient marine creatures, proof that the highest point on the planet was once sitting at the bottom of the ocean, according to a 2005 finding by the International Union of Geological Sciences. Geologists believe the summit’s limestone formed on an ancient seafloor and was later thrust upward to form the massive mountain when two gigantic tectonic plates collided with each other around 55 million years ago.
