The Greifswald group hypothesises that they were part of a reef that grew on a basalt platform and sank during a seismic event in the oceans crust. Or maybe the fountains of the deep overwhelmed the reef. But I guess considering some sort of giant flood is ridiculous.

Bang on! The flood of Noah’s day explains a lot of the unusual undersea discoveries. Most will scoff at giving a bible account any credibility.
