Watch footage of the incomprehensible floating island
A MYSTERIOUS spinning island shaped like a perfect circle has left explorers baffled for years.
Known as “The Eye” the uninhabited patch of overgrown vegetation floats around a crystal clear lake in Argentina slowly moving each day.
The bizarre natural phenomenon sits in the swampy river of Parana Delta in Buenos Aires and it has left many experts stumped over why or how it moves so freely.
Those lucky enough to have travelled to the island say it is almost a perfect circle due to the movement of the land mass.
Overtime the corners of the lake have managed to rub against the island as it moves and eroded itself into 360 degree smooth outlines.
Incredible aerial footage shows the 387ft spherical island, known locally as El Ojo, surrounded by a crescent of water.
Famed Argentinian documentary director Sergio Neuspiller travelled to the Parana river and as he flew over El Ojo noticed the unbelievable shape below.
After landing the helicopter nearby Neuspiller took off on a journey to find the magical island.
Once at the exact spot he climbed onto the floating disc and waded through the vegetation.
He told El Observador about the trip and said he was blown away by the beauty of the island and the lake it was floating on.
