Sorry, I think any story that relies on supernatural hibernation is more likely than not to be a myth. The word 'supernatural' pretty much implies that it goes against scientific evidence.

If God was capable of putting them into supernatural hibernation...why didn't God just send them all into a pocket dimension...or the future!!!
I don't like Christian answers that depend on logically flawed and unreasonable assumptions. It makes the whole lot look bad. The Flood story is a huge blind spot (amongst many) for people who want to interpret the Bible literally.
If it were up to me, I'd supernaturally turn everything into a computer. Then I'd backup the essential parts of planet earth I wanted to keep and then hit "Format C:\" (C: for Creation).
