This Floating McDonald's Was Abandoned For 30 Years, And It's Creepy As Hell

How cool does a floating McDonald's sound?! Well, back in 1986, it was made a reality after the franchise spent $8 million on the 'McBarge'.

It was based at the Vancouver Expo in Canada, and people went mad for it. However, soon the novelty wore off and it was abandoned. It's still floating off the coast of Canada to this day, and it's pretty damn creepy.

There's even a Facebook page dedicated to the McBarge where they feature a whole host of pictures.

Here it is in its heyday...

And here it is more recently...

These lads also climbed on board and shot a video.

Weird.
