According to the Independent, a TikTok account called @googlemapsfun shares videos of things they have found while exploring Google Maps. On March 24, the account shared a video of a giant snake-like object found off the coast of France. 

"Somewhere in France, we can see something giant you can only see with satellites, hidden on Google Earth," the account states. "Users believe this to be a giant snake. It's about 30 metres long and bigger than any snake caught before."

The account also suggested that the snake skeleton could be that of the extinct Titanoboa - a genus of extremely large snakes.
