8. Soviet-Built T34/76A Found In Lake Kurtna Matasjarv
Location: Estonia
Year Discovered: 2000
Est. Value: $6 million*
A magnificent piece of history was hidden for decades in the depths of Lake Kurtna Matasjärv until it was uncovered in 2000 by a young Estonian guy named Kasper. Kasper fetched his parents after spotting an odd marking and a rope nearby. After a protracted dig, the entire town was engaged. A Soviet-built T34/76A tank rose up from the depths at the other end of the rope, a menacing reminder of times gone by. Kasper made this accidental finding. However, it’s still up to speculation as to why or how the tank ended up there.

9. Secret Underground Theater Found in Paris Catacombs
Location: Paris, France
Year Discovered: 2004
Est. Value: $5,000-$10,000* (Cost To Build)
In the center of France sits a maze called the Paris Catacombs. The city needed a better place to store the deceased, so it constructed the Catacombs. Therefore, starting in the late 1700s, Paris decided to empty dead into five-story underground tunnels. This backdrop adds an even unsettling element to the discovery. A completely functional movie theater was found in August 2004 by Parisian police conducting a training exercise in one of the Catacombs’ previously unexplored chambers. An amphitheater was created by carving terraces into the rock. Inside was a full-sized movie screen, projection equipment, and a selection of thriller and noir films. It appears that someone only wanted to set up their own eerie, private theater because the films were neither unpleasant nor prohibited.
