00:00It turns out that the eye of the Sahara and the Atlantic look alike.

00:03When the astronauts saw the eye of the Sahara from space,

00:07they first suspected that it was the impact crater of a meteorite.

00:11But the rings of the structure correspond to the arrangement described for the Atlantic.

00:16More importantly, the Sahara has not always been a desert.

00:20It transformed from a tropical region into an arid desert about 11,000 years ago.

00:26Researchers have found traces of a huge river, the Taman Rasset,

00:30which could have drowned an entire community.

00:33It flowed into the structure of Richa,

00:36similarly to the description of Plato.

00:38The trans-Saharan maritime route crossed the Sahara 50 to 100 million years ago.

00:43And it is claimed that the sea destroyed the Atlantic about 11,500 years ago.

00:49Probably due to a rapid rise in the sea level caused by the end of the Ice Age.

00:55NASA's satellite imagery shows motifs that agree with this theory.

01:00These concentric circles could be the key to revealing the secrets of the evolution of our planet over millions of years.

01:08They were shaped by the erosion of several layers of resistant rocks,

01:13creating a strange pattern made of ridges and ravines.

01:16The main peak stands proudly 400 meters high.

01:20The central part has undergone a significant transformation due to erosion,

01:24developing a circular structure with a high peak.

01:27Contrary to the impact crater, the Sahara oil presents a striking symmetry and balance.

01:33Some claim that this would result from the lifting of the rocks, sculpted by the wind and water.

01:38Others believe that it would be an ancient anti-clinal, eroded until revealing this concentric shape.

01:44Then there is the theory of the salt dome,

01:47suggesting that it is the floatability of the salt that would have sculpted this wonder.

01:52Dating techniques have shown that it was formed 252 to 541 million years ago,

01:58more or less one million years ago.

02:00Ancient artifacts are scattered around the outer rings of the structure,

02:05near the dried-up river bed.

02:07Some tools made of older stones have also been found in the same area.

02:13And yet, even if some spearheads of the Neolithic era were found there,

02:18there are not many signs that people lived there at the time.

02:21The region seems to have been exploited for short-term activities,

02:25such as hunting or the manufacture of tools.

02:28There are other supernatural mysteries that sprinkle our world.

02:31One of these enigmas is found in Norway.

02:34The sinister phenomenon of the lights of Esdalen,

02:37also known as the Valley of Lights, leaves scientists perplexed.

02:42This valley is 15 km wide.

02:46It is quite remote, but a strange blue box is at the top of the hill.

02:51Equipped with cameras that scrutinize the valley upside down.

02:54The disturbing saga began in the 1980s,

02:58when the night sky above Esdalen separated from incandescent fireballs.

03:04A recurring spectacle that shocked everyone who saw it.

03:08It was not an ephemeral phenomenon.

03:11On the contrary, it occurred very regularly.

03:14Terrified, the inhabitants reported inexplicable contact with these luminous phenomena,

03:20some of which would be a product near their homes.

03:24Fear spread like a powder keg.

03:27At its peak, there were about 20 appearances each week.

03:32The phenomenon made its way in newspapers, magazines and the media around the world.

03:36Very quickly, people flocked to the valley, hoping to see these lights for themselves.

03:42In 1984, experts joined the crowd.

03:47Armed with sophisticated instruments such as magnetometers, radiometers and many other tricks.

03:53What they observed was staggering.

03:55These lights challenged any explanation.

03:58Some moved at a calm pace,

04:01while others crossed the sky at a lightning speed of 30,000 km per hour.

04:06People have tried to explain them.

04:09Plane, distant reflection, lightning bolt, satellite, planet, meteor.

04:16But the speed and the way these lights danced eclipsed all these theories.

04:21We are slowly approaching another mysterious place.

04:24It is the largest subglacial lake among the 675 lakes known in Antarctica.

04:28It could easily house forms of unknown life.

04:32This lake is located under the Inland Sea, East Antarctica.

04:35If you dive about 4 km under the ice, you will see Lake Vostok,

04:40located 2 cm below sea level.

04:44This lake is 250 km long and 50 km wide.

04:50At its widest point, with an average depth of 430 m,

04:55it is also the 6th largest lake in the world in terms of volume.

05:00It looks like an underwater city, with high pillars and deep basins.

05:05This secret lake was discovered in 1993.

05:09However, it was expected to be discovered for more than 2,000 years,

05:13keeping all its secrets.

05:15In 2012, scientists drilled the ice,

05:18collecting the longest ice cube in history.

05:21They crossed the frozen pebble to the surface of the lake.

05:25The year 2013 brought an unexpected rebound,

05:28when these calm waters arose during the extraction of an ice cube,

05:33mixing with the drilling fluids.

05:36They finally obtained a sample of pure water in 2015.

05:39Some think that there could be unknown forms of life over there,

05:44because it is a reserve of fossil water that has not been touched for millions of years.

05:49It could look a lot like these oceans covered with ice

05:52that are suspected to exist on moons like Europe and Enceladus.

05:56It all started with a 19th century theory

05:59suggesting that fresh water would be hidden under the ice caps of Antarctica.

06:04Then, in 1959, seismic surveys revealed the existence of an underwater lake.

06:12And in the 1990s, satellite data confirmed the existence of Lake Vostok.

06:18It is not the only one.

06:20In 2005, an island was discovered in the middle of the lake.

06:23Then, two smaller lakes joined the party.

06:27It is suspected that a secret network of underwater rivers could have connected these lakes.

06:32Very far from Antarctica, in Venezuela,

06:35the Catatumbo lightning offers a stunning light show

06:38to the confluence of the Catatumbo river and Lake Maracaibo.

06:42This disturbing electrical phenomenon occurs about 140 to 160 nights a year,

06:47for 10 hours a day,

06:49and can release up to 280 lightning bolts in one hour.

06:53The frequency of this lightning show changes with the seasons and from year to year.

06:58Have you ever heard the term stride?

07:01It is a variant of the word stride, which is used in the Yorkshire,

07:05and which refers to a narrow section of the Wharf river,

07:08which is so small that you could probably trip over it.

07:11But don't be fooled by its size.

07:13It is one of the most dangerous places in the area,

07:15and the simple fact of taking a step in the water can have disastrous consequences.

07:19The Wharf has a powerful current,

07:21and as the stride is so narrow, it is all the stronger in this area.

07:26The intense flow of water eroded the limestone around it,

07:29which created hollow spaces much deeper than the rest of the riverbed.

07:35And here is the secret.

07:36The current also weakened the stride's banks below.

07:39So the ground you are standing on,

07:41looking at this rapid flow,

07:43is probably just a fragile edge suspended above very steep water.

07:47There is no trace of anyone who has found themselves in the stride's water,

07:51and who managed to escape it.

07:53And the worst?

07:54You would never guess that this innocent-looking stream

07:57could represent such a danger.

07:59We therefore advise you to stick to a safer water plan for your aquatic escapades.

08:07If you are looking to escape the time of a weekend in California,

08:10Horseshoe Lake is the place you need.

08:12It has everything for you.

08:13Sand beaches, hiking trails, and picnic areas.

08:16But wait, there is something else beyond the appearance.

08:19This lake has a dark side,

08:21namely about 40 hectares of dead trees surrounding it.

08:24And it's not just the trees that were victims of this lake.

08:27The earthquakes that took place between 1989 and 1990

08:31released carbon dioxide trapped in the magma in fusion.

08:34This gas infiltrated the air,

08:36entangling all forms of life around the lake.

08:39Even today, Horseshoe Lake is just as dangerous as it was 30 years ago.

08:43What makes it so frightening is that the toxic levels of this gas

08:46change unpredictably.

08:49The warning signs, which are all over the place,

08:52could certainly give a scary touch to this fun wild hike.

08:58In Kauai, in the Hawaiian archipelago,

09:00there is a group of breathtaking waterfalls,

09:02which used to be a popular destination among tourists.

09:05The Kipu Falls, as they are called,

09:07used to be a privileged place for swimming and diving.

09:10To access it, you had to make a long walk along a dirt path,

09:14to finally reach an impregnable view,

09:16resulting in a waterfall 6 meters high,

09:18which overflowed into a crystal clear water pool.

09:21But since 2011, this area is forbidden to the public.

09:26Why?

09:28Well, many accidents have occurred at the Kipu Falls.

09:31Of course, jumping from the top of the waterfall would be the most obvious cause.

09:35But there are much more mysterious cases.

09:39Witnesses say that swimmers peacefully enjoyed the water at the bottom of the falls,

09:44before being suddenly sucked under the surface.

09:47No precise explanation has ever been found for these accidents.

09:53Locals think that it is the Mo'o aquatic spirit that should be blamed,

09:56because it did not want to be disturbed by noisy tourists.

10:00There is also a theory about a powerful whirlwind coming from the bottom of the pool.

10:04Anyway, the tourist guides no longer mention the Kipu Falls,

10:07and the intrusions there are severely reprimanded.

10:13The Samae San hole, located in the Gulf of Thailand,

10:16seems to be the ideal place for divers in search of strong sensations.

10:19But it is also the most dangerous.

10:22With an abyss of 85 meters, it is the deepest diving site in the region.

10:26But its depth is not the only reason why it is considered a place to avoid.

10:31It is an important navigation crossroads for giant oil workers,

10:34and the powerful currents around the hole make diving even more treacherous.

10:39And as if that were not enough, the Samae San hole also houses ferocious barracudas,

10:44which could easily take on divers without caution.

10:47The water is so turbulent that visibility is almost zero,

10:50which makes it difficult to spot these aggressive marine creatures.

10:54In short, the Samae San hole is a place to catch your breath,

10:58but extremely dangerous and should only be explored by experienced divers with steel nerves.

11:05So let us tell you about New Smyrna Beach, the world capital of shark attacks.

11:11If you are looking for a relaxing vacation spot in the county of Volusia in Florida,

11:15you may have to think twice.

11:18The waters around New Smyrna Beach are full of fish, which attracts a lot of squalls.

11:24In fact, there have been so many shark attacks reported in this region,

11:28that it has widely deserved its title of capital of shark attacks.

11:34Researchers themselves have warned that anyone who goes swimming there

11:37would certainly find themselves in close contact with at least one of them.

11:41We are talking about a distance of 3 meters at most,

11:43and in many cases, you would not even realize it.

11:47To make matters worse, the Bulldog shark, one of the most dangerous and aggressive types of sharks,

11:52has been spotted in these waters.

11:56Kauai is once again on our list.

11:59A beach on the coast of Napali, called Anakapiai Beach,

12:02may look like heaven on earth in many ways, but you are not mistaken.

12:06To access it, you will have to climb an extremely steep rocky path, over 3 kilometers.

12:12There is no lifeguard on this isolated beach.

12:14So if you decide to dive in the water, you will be delivered to yourself.

12:20The biggest threat to your safety are the incredibly strong currents.

12:24They are almost always present, because there is no reef that protects this shore.

12:29And if someone finds himself caught in one of these currents,

12:31there is no safe place to swim at miles around.

12:34The nearest beach is 10 kilometers away.

12:37Believe us, Anakapiai Beach is far from being the safest.

12:41It is therefore highly recommended to stay out of the water if you ever go to this beach.

12:47Imagine a ghost town.

12:49Abandoned buildings covered with graffiti, rusty car carcasses, cracked tarp roads.

12:54And now, add to that a thick layer of black smoke coming out of the ground.

12:59And the ground itself is hot to the touch.

13:01Welcome to Centralia in Pennsylvania.

13:04It was an animated place in the 1800s and until the 1960s.

13:08These rich coal mines attracted a lot of people to work and live there.

13:13But in 1962, one of these mines accidentally caught fire,

13:16and a fire began to spread underground.

13:19Coal is a slow-burning fuel.

13:22So, citizens continued to live peacefully for almost two decades,

13:27until the fire began to sweep the city underground.

13:31One of the worst accidents took place when a glowing hole appeared out of nowhere

13:35in the garden of a house in Centralia.

13:37Fortunately, no one was injured.

13:39But after that, people started to leave.

13:42Over the next 30 years, almost everyone moved.

13:46In 2020, five people were still living there.

13:50But apart from this handful of irreducible people,

13:52Centralia is indeed a ghost town.

13:54The abandoned buildings that collapse and the cracked roads are just a small part of it.

14:00The most disturbing element of this place is the smoke that escapes from the ground through the cracks.

14:05The underground fire is still raging,

14:07warming the surface and slowly destroying the remains of the city.

14:12Moreover, this is what inspired the famous fictional city of Silent Hill.

14:17It is estimated that the blaze will last another 250 years.

14:20And by then, there will only be burnt wastelands in the region.

14:25If you are afraid of insects, then the next place is probably your worst nightmare.

14:30The caves of Gomantong in Malaysia could be one of the most picturesque places in the world,

14:35if there were no inhabitants.

14:38First of all, there are bats.

14:40More than two million of these animals live in the vast expanses of the caves.

14:44They are easily frightened, but it is not necessarily a good idea to scare them.

14:48Imagine millions of hailed horrors flying towards you in panic.

14:53Secondly, there are cockroaches.

14:55And if the number of bats is more or less determined,

14:58cockroaches crawling on the ground and the walls of the caves are impossible to count.

15:03They are so many that you will not be able to make a single step without a dozen of these animals crawling along your legs.

15:09Finally, if you manage not to scream because of cockroaches

15:12and not to wake up the hordes of bats,

15:14you may be rewarded by other wonderful inhabitants of the caves.

15:18These are snakes, scorpions and venomous giant millipedes.

15:22Charming.

15:24Nevertheless, the caves are open to the public and many people visit this place.

15:29In the middle of nowhere, in the desolate lands of the desert of Karakum in Central Asia,

15:34there is a big hole in the ground that burns forever.

15:38It is called the gas crater of Darvaza

15:41and it is a real pit, large and deep, which has been burning for more than half a century now.

15:47Inhabitants call it the gate of hell.

15:49And the view is indeed frightening.

15:51There is no way to extinguish the flames.

15:54And scientists think that the crater will continue to burn for centuries.

15:58The pit appeared in 1971 when a group of engineers made scouts in the region

16:03and thought they had found an oil deposit.

16:06But it turned out to be a natural gas pocket

16:09and when the drilling platform began to work on the site, the ground collapsed.

16:13The engineers were afraid that the toxic gas would endanger the neighboring cities.

16:17So they thought it was better to set it on fire and let it burn for a few weeks.

16:22But as we can see, the brazier is still as powerful.

16:26The crater has since become a popular tourist attraction.

16:30However, it still represents a certain danger.

16:33So efforts are made to definitively close the doors of the underground world.

16:37Imagine that you see an incredibly venomous snake right next to your foot.

16:42Already quite terrifying, isn't it?

16:44Now, multiply this experience by 2000.

16:47And no matter where you try to run, there are snakes all around you.

16:51Welcome to the Snake Island, whose name could not be better described.

16:55The island is located not far from the coast of Brazil and houses thousands of vipers,

16:59Jararaca Iloa, or insular trigonocephalus.

17:03About 11,000 years ago, the sea level increased and separated the island from the continent.

17:08And many of these vipers ended up trapped on the island.

17:11Their cousins on the continent are also venomous, but not as much.

17:14The insular variety had to evolve to survive, and it did so in a special way.

17:19As there are not many terrestrial animals to hunt for vipers,

17:22they adapted by hunting birds instead.

17:24And for their venom to be effective, they had to be instantaneous.

17:28These golden vipers have therefore developed a venom that is five times more powerful than the ordinary variety.

17:33This has allowed them to thrive, and there are now one to five vipers per square meter on the island.

17:39The island is considered so dangerous that Brazil has banned all visitors,

17:43in case someone would be crazy enough to go there.

17:46Lost in the woods at night, you suddenly come across a human figure.

17:50Relieved, you touch his shoulder to ask for your way.

17:53But it is as hard as stone and covered with moss.

17:56Then you look at the face of the person and your mouth is filled with horror.

18:00This thing is all but human.

18:02A wise advice would be not to walk in the southeast of Finland at night

18:06if you do not want to live a nightmarish experience.

18:09This is where a renowned Finnish sculptor created a sinister garden of sculptures behind his own house.

18:15The main collection consists of 200 human figures in various yoga poses.

18:20But by walking around, you can come across more sinister works of art.

18:24For example, a hooded figure with his arms outstretched and deep black holes in his eyes.

18:30To add to this scary look, real human teeth are found in the mouth of some statues.

18:35The sculptor is a hermit who did not want to leave his house.

18:39And when he was asked to lend some of his sculptures to museums,

18:43he replied that he had to ask them for permission first.

18:46It seems that they refused.
