Transcript

00:00:00You are hiking in a sublime protected reserve in California, and you find yourself in front of a puma.

00:00:06Stay calm, you have to show him that you are not afraid.

00:00:08Shout out in the direction of the animal and shake your arms.

00:00:10If it does not work, throw stones, branches and everything that falls into your hand.

00:00:14Aim at the ground in front of the puma.

00:00:16Never throw anything directly at him.

00:00:18It would only make him more angry.

00:00:21If the puma approaches, protect your most vulnerable parts.

00:00:24He will aim at the neck and try to catch your arms.

00:00:27So tilt your head forward to protect your neck, and do not make big movements with your arms.

00:00:32When he realizes that you are not an easy opponent, the puma will probably retreat and run away.

00:00:38You are at Yellowstone.

00:00:40Here you find yourself face to face with a grizzly.

00:00:42He drinks water in a stream.

00:00:44The safety distance is 60 meters.

00:00:46The grizzly spotted you.

00:00:48He stands on his hind legs and looks in your direction.

00:00:50He is now the size of a normal-sized basketball player.

00:00:53He weighs about 360 kg.

00:00:55So you have no chance of winning.

00:00:57You have to stay frozen in place.

00:00:59The grizzly has a bad view, so he may not see you.

00:01:02But then he starts walking in your direction.

00:01:04Do not turn your back to him and do not try to run as fast as possible.

00:01:07He will chase you.

00:01:09You have to look bigger than you really are.

00:01:11Shake your arms and spread your legs a little more.

00:01:13Speak and shout constantly in the direction of the bear.

00:01:16He will understand that you are not a simple deer.

00:01:18Try to make a metal noise.

00:01:20If you have food on you, do not throw it to the bear.

00:01:23Put it on the ground and keep moving back in front of the animal.

00:01:26If he starts running towards you,

00:01:28your only chance is to lie down on the ground and stay frozen.

00:01:31Bears are not scavengers.

00:01:33So if he thinks you are not alive,

00:01:35he will just sniff you, raise his shoulders and leave.

00:01:37Now you are going to dive on the Florida coast.

00:01:40You have to protect yourself from the big white shark.

00:01:42Never wear shiny and shiny jewelry when you bathe.

00:01:45They attract sharks.

00:01:46And never bathe at night.

00:01:48That's when they come out to get food.

00:01:50A lot of water projections can also attract this marine predator.

00:01:53But if the shark is still swimming towards you,

00:01:55the rule is the following.

00:01:57Do everything in your power to face it and win.

00:01:59Try to stay calm and swim towards the beach.

00:02:01If the shark takes you for food,

00:02:03there is only one thing that can scare it.

00:02:05Try to hit the shark on the nose, eyes or gills.

00:02:08Now you are in Africa.

00:02:10Here, in the high grass of the savannah, you see a lion.

00:02:12And the worst thing is that he sees you too.

00:02:14The first thing you have to do is keep visual contact.

00:02:16Don't turn your back to the lion.

00:02:18And don't run.

00:02:19This two-meter predator, which weighs as much as three adults,

00:02:22runs towards you at the speed of a car on the highway.

00:02:24But he stops abruptly and keeps staring at you.

00:02:27Lions often pretend to charge to scare their opponent.

00:02:30At this stage, you must appear much bigger than you really are.

00:02:33Spread your arms and make loud noises.

00:02:35The lion can then make another false charge.

00:02:37And if you don't move, the lion will realize

00:02:39that you are a size opponent and will go the other way.

00:02:42Be careful, the lion is much more dangerous than the male.

00:02:45If she keeps her babies, she will never stop.

00:02:47And you will have no chance.

00:02:49Your safari jeep takes you to the next place.

00:02:51You see elephants drinking water peacefully.

00:02:54These animals can measure 3 meters high and weigh as much as 2.44.

00:02:58They can even overturn cars with their powerful defense.

00:03:01And that's when one of them sees you and shakes his big ears.

00:03:04It's bluff.

00:03:05With his ears, the elephant wants to appear bigger and make you run away.

00:03:09He is also afraid and will not rush at you.

00:03:11You have to make the beast understand that you are not threatening it.

00:03:14Don't scream and don't shake your arms.

00:03:16Move back slowly until you have left the elephant's personal space.

00:03:20But if he runs towards you with his ears against his head, he doesn't bluff.

00:03:24Climbing a tree is not a good option at the moment.

00:03:27He could hit the tree and make you fall.

00:03:29He could even make him tilt with his big trunk.

00:03:31You have to run in a zigzag.

00:03:33The elephant is heavy and it is difficult for him to change direction quickly.

00:03:36So little by little, you will start to move away from him.

00:03:39But don't forget that an elephant can run at 40 km per hour.

00:03:42It is therefore unlikely that you will escape him.

00:03:44Now let's go to the Nile River in Egypt.

00:03:46There are the largest number of crocodiles in the world.

00:03:48If you are camping, settle at a distance of at least 50 meters from the shore.

00:03:52In this way, the crocodile will not find your camp at night.

00:03:56Never leave the crocodile out of sight.

00:03:58He can take advantage of this moment and take you by surprise.

00:04:01Their top speed is only 16 km per hour.

00:04:03But they can charge 13 meters per second from the water.

00:04:07So the only chance to survive is to stay out of the water.

00:04:10Otherwise, the crocodile's weak points are the eyes, the tip of the nose and the membrane of the throat.

00:04:15This membrane prevents water from entering the crocodile's throat.

00:04:19When you run away from a crocodile, be careful not to fall on a hippopotamus.

00:04:23It is one of the most dangerous animals in the world.

00:04:26They can be the size of a tourist car and weigh as much as a big elephant.

00:04:30In addition, they can run as fast as horses.

00:04:32So they are sure to overtake you in a sprint.

00:04:34The main thing is not to frighten them.

00:04:36If you are at a safe distance, draw their attention with a loud noise.

00:04:40In general, they will try to get away from you.

00:04:42Take advantage of this moment to back off too.

00:04:44But if you see a hippopotamus howling, it's a sign that you're breaking their comfort zone.

00:04:48They can open their mouths at 180 degrees and have the strength to bite a crocodile.

00:04:52So you won't be able to beat him and you have to run away.

00:04:55The best option is to climb a tree or something high.

00:04:58Hippos have trouble climbing high.

00:05:00And if you manage to escape, you will be one of the few people to have survived

00:05:04a face-to-face with a hippopotamus.

00:05:06There are also buffalos that live here in the savannah.

00:05:09They can be as tall as an adult man and weigh a ton.

00:05:12And unlike lions and elephants, they do not make false charges.

00:05:16If you see this machine running at you, it certainly has bad intentions.

00:05:20Their powerful horns and skulls can bend metal plates.

00:05:23They can turn a new car into a pile of scrap metal.

00:05:26You can never distance a bison.

00:05:28Your only option is to find the nearest tree and run to it,

00:05:31even before the buffalo starts its charge.

00:05:33If you come across a snake, you have to stay still.

00:05:36There are an infinite number of snake species,

00:05:38and you don't know if your opponent is venomous or not.

00:05:41So you must absolutely avoid being bitten.

00:05:43Make slow and fluid movements backwards.

00:05:46If the snake follows you, stop and start tapping your foot.

00:05:49The strong vibrations of the ground should make it run away.

00:05:51If the snake bites you anyway, try to remember exactly what it looks like.

00:05:55Or even better, take a picture of it.

00:05:57To neutralize the venom, you must take an antidote

00:06:00against the specific venom of this species of snake.

00:06:02You are now on your way to Northeast Asia.

00:06:05As you cross a dense jungle, you see a clearing.

00:06:08Several wild boars are grazing peacefully there.

00:06:11One of them is a female with several cubs.

00:06:13She is ready to protect them all,

00:06:15so she is particularly aggressive with her entourage.

00:06:17Oops, she spotted you.

00:06:19Get ready to defend yourself.

00:06:20If the boar makes loud and piercing cries, it will hit you.

00:06:23The first thing to do is to stay calm and not move.

00:06:27You are in good luck that the boar is still on its way.

00:06:31But you see that it starts to run.

00:06:33You then have several options.

00:06:35You can run away.

00:06:36You can face the enemy or climb the nearest tree.

00:06:40The first option is bad.

00:06:41Wild boars can run as fast as Senbolt.

00:06:44And when it catches up with you,

00:06:45its sharp defenses will leave you no chance.

00:06:47Option B, stay or kill.

00:06:49False.

00:06:50A wild boar can weigh as much as a motorcycle

00:06:52and be almost as long as an adult.

00:06:54A shot at 40 km per hour will knock you down.

00:06:57So the right option is to climb the nearest tree.

00:06:59If there is no tree,

00:07:00climb a car or a large rock.

00:07:02You must be in a higher position than the boar.

00:07:05When it realizes that it cannot reach you,

00:07:07it will leave you alone.

00:07:09Overall, the most important thing is to stay away from wild boars,

00:07:12to never try to feed or provoke them.

00:07:17It's time to stretch your legs

00:07:19and take a walk in the park.

00:07:21The sun shines and you enjoy this beautiful weather

00:07:24and life in general.

00:07:25This is when you notice a vertical cloud that grows rapidly.

00:07:29From a bright white at the beginning,

00:07:31it approaches at an alarming speed,

00:07:33thickening and taking on an ink color.

00:07:35The sky darkens and a gust of wind blows your hat away.

00:07:40And then your hair starts to stand on your head.

00:07:43It's time to run to save your life.

00:07:45You are about to be hit by lightning.

00:07:48At this very moment,

00:07:49positive charges rise in your body.

00:07:52They are directed towards the part of the storm that is negatively charged.

00:07:55If you don't react quickly,

00:07:57these opposite charges will meet

00:07:59and it will end badly for you.

00:08:01If you can't hide anywhere,

00:08:03crouch and try to make yourself smaller than the objects around you.

00:08:07Don't lie flat on the ground.

00:08:09It can be wet and therefore very conductive.

00:08:12There are also other signs that indicate a danger during a storm.

00:08:15Your palms can start to sweat.

00:08:17You can hear crackling,

00:08:20or strange vibrations coming from nearby metallic objects.

00:08:23Your skin can start to itch.

00:08:25You can feel a strange metallic taste in your mouth.

00:08:28If you are not just chewing aluminum foil at this moment,

00:08:31be careful!

00:08:33In addition, you are likely to smell chlorine.

00:08:36It's ozone.

00:08:37Electric charges divide nitrogen and oxygen molecules,

00:08:40which are the main gases forming the atmosphere,

00:08:43into separate atoms.

00:08:45When these atoms meet again,

00:08:47some of them produce molecules made up of three oxygen atoms.

00:08:50It's ozone.

00:08:52You can feel it during a storm

00:08:54because the descending currents bring it down from high altitudes

00:08:57to the level of your nose.

00:08:59You can know how close a storm is

00:09:01by measuring the time between the moment you saw a flash

00:09:04and the moment you heard the thunder.

00:09:06Three seconds is about one kilometer.

00:09:08The sky above your head darkens

00:09:10and takes a disturbing green hue.

00:09:12Something hits your cheek.

00:09:14Ouch! It hurts!

00:09:16You pick up the object in question.

00:09:18It's a huge hail.

00:09:20But it's not that cold outside and it doesn't even rain.

00:09:23You notice that everything is calm, quiet.

00:09:25There is not the slightest breeze in front.

00:09:27It makes you think of calm before the storm.

00:09:30And indeed, you hear the noise soon.

00:09:32It approaches quickly and turns into a big roar,

00:09:35as if a freight train was heading straight for you.

00:09:39But it's not a train.

00:09:41It's a tornado and you hardly have time to escape.

00:09:44The funnel is not visible behind a cloud of debris,

00:09:47but it's impossible to confuse this rotating air column

00:09:49with anything else.

00:09:51If the tornado surprises you on the road,

00:09:53stay away from your car as much as possible.

00:09:55This will prevent the vehicle from being projected towards you.

00:09:58Find a ditch, lie down in it and cover your head.

00:10:01If you are inside,

00:10:03stay away from the windows and take refuge underground if possible.

00:10:06Now you are on the edge of the sea.

00:10:08You walk along the shore and enjoy a light breeze.

00:10:12Suddenly, the ground starts to tremble under your feet.

00:10:15It must be an earthquake!

00:10:17The next weird thing you notice is the water

00:10:19that withdraws on the beach at a crazy speed.

00:10:22It reveals behind it the bottom of the ocean,

00:10:24the reefs and even the fish.

00:10:26That's when you hear a loud distant noise.

00:10:28It's a tsunami and you only have a few minutes to save your life.

00:10:32Go immediately to a high point.

00:10:34A giant wave is already heading towards the shore.

00:10:37This is not the only way a tsunami can hit you.

00:10:40It does not necessarily come to crash against the shore like a series of huge waves.

00:10:44A tsunami can look like a very fast rising tide.

00:10:47It usually goes in pairs with strong underwater turbulence.

00:10:51It drags people under the surface of the water

00:10:53and projects heavy objects in all directions.

00:10:56You can also notice that the sea water boils,

00:10:58swirls and creates strange patterns.

00:11:00It is another sign that a tsunami is coming.

00:11:03Your dog is agitated.

00:11:05He scratches the front door,

00:11:07scratches the apartment and tries to hide in a corner.

00:11:10Usually calm and docile,

00:11:12the dog is screaming and barking now.

00:11:14The weather has been completely out of control for several days.

00:11:17It is abnormally hot one day

00:11:19and cold the next day.

00:11:21In addition, you noticed that the stream near your house

00:11:23is getting more and more agitated,

00:11:25boiling as it passes.

00:11:27It is only when the glasses start to tint in your closet

00:11:29that you realize what it means.

00:11:31The clatter is produced by preliminary shakes,

00:11:34small earthquakes leading to the main event.

00:11:37Earthquakes often occur in series.

00:11:40If there are several weak earthquakes,

00:11:42it is possible that a much larger earthquake is preparing.

00:11:46A little before the disaster,

00:11:48you could notice strange blue lights.

00:11:50Some of them seem to come from the ground.

00:11:52Others seem to float in the air, motionless.

00:11:55These are what are called seismic lights.

00:11:58Emitted by rocks subjected to strong constraints,

00:12:00they can be seen for days or seconds

00:12:02before the ground starts to shake.

00:12:05However, some experts doubt the existence of these seismic lights.

00:12:09If you think that an earthquake is about to occur

00:12:12and that there is a catfish in your aquarium,

00:12:14be careful with its behavior.

00:12:16Scientists have proven that this species

00:12:18can react to earthquakes in advance.

00:12:20Fishes become agitated when seismic activity is increased.

00:12:24Likewise, some insects can feel a storm coming.

00:12:27They prepare for the natural disaster by stopping all movement.

00:12:31This is why, if you notice that many insects around you look apathetic,

00:12:34quickly look for shelter.

00:12:36As for bees, they can predict heavy rains.

00:12:39They start working much harder the day before it starts to rain.

00:12:43Square waves occur when two configurations of different heights collide.

00:12:47This phenomenon looks great,

00:12:49but only if you look at it from the shore.

00:12:52Don't even think about getting in the water to play in such waves.

00:12:55Transverse currents can easily drag you under the surface,

00:12:58even if you are a good swimmer.

00:13:00And if you see agitated waves carrying debris and algae,

00:13:03stay out of the water too.

00:13:05This can be the sign of a strong reverse current.

00:13:08It could take you far offshore.

00:13:10If you see a green and smelly substance

00:13:12on the surface of a lake or a sea,

00:13:14don't get close to the water.

00:13:16It can be a proliferation of dangerous algae.

00:13:18You won't be able to tell if they are toxic or not at first glance.

00:13:22That's why it's better not to get close to it.

00:13:25Three to four days before the arrival of a hurricane,

00:13:27the surface of the sea or the ocean can swell up to two meters high.

00:13:31The waves hit the shore every nine seconds.

00:13:34The closer the hurricane is,

00:13:35the faster the waves crash against the shore.

00:13:38They are also higher, sometimes up to five meters.

00:13:41The sky is littered with light and misty clouds.

00:13:44About 36 hours before the hurricane reaches the shore,

00:13:47the atmospheric pressure begins to drop.

00:13:49After that, the wind accelerates.

00:13:51Stretched clouds, like hair, appear in the sky.

00:13:55Eighteen hours before the hurricane reaches the shore,

00:13:57the sky opens and it starts to rain.

00:14:00Rainwater often floods low-altitude areas,

00:14:02reaching up to 4.5 meters.

00:14:05Twelve hours before the hurricane,

00:14:06a strong gust of wind begins to bring debris.

00:14:09Six hours before the hurricane hits the ground,

00:14:11the wind speed is already 145 km per hour.

00:14:14It is strong enough to break and even root trees,

00:14:18project large debris and turn cars.

00:14:21In fact, let's say you're sailing

00:14:23and there are sharks around your boat.

00:14:26Keep an eye on them.

00:14:27If the predators suddenly leave you alone

00:14:29and head for the deep waters,

00:14:31it can mean that a hurricane is approaching.

00:14:34Return to the mainland as soon as possible

00:14:36and warn your loved ones.

00:14:38If during a period of heavy rain

00:14:39you hear a rumble,

00:14:41it may be a sudden cruise moving in your direction.

00:14:44If you are near a river at that moment,

00:14:46you could see debris coming down with the current.

00:14:49The water can change color

00:14:50and become more muddy and darker.

00:14:53These signs should warn you

00:14:54against the dangers lurking.

00:14:56If your intuition is good,

00:14:57you have no time to waste.

00:14:59Try to get away from this place

00:15:00as quickly as you can.

00:15:02Lightning cranes are often deadly.

00:15:05If you are in nature,

00:15:06be careful of water streams,

00:15:07rivers and rivers.

00:15:09If they go down or up quickly,

00:15:11it may be a sign that a landslide

00:15:13is about to occur.

00:15:15And if you see the water become muddy,

00:15:16don't wait for other signs.

00:15:18Leave the area immediately.

00:15:22Do you know what to do if you are followed?

00:15:24Answer our quiz on the safety tips

00:15:26to see if you are well prepared.

00:15:29You enter your home through a quiet and deserted street

00:15:31after a long day of work.

00:15:33Suddenly, you hear footsteps behind you.

00:15:36You turn in another street,

00:15:37but the footsteps are still following you.

00:15:40What should you do?

00:15:45First of all,

00:15:46make sure that the person is really following you

00:15:48and doesn't just go home in the same direction.

00:15:50How are you going to get there?

00:15:52There are several good answers here.

00:15:56A. Try to walk a little faster

00:15:58to see if your pursuer is also accelerating.

00:16:00B. Stop negligently

00:16:02pretending to look for something in your pocket

00:16:04or to have a lace to redo.

00:16:06C. Stop abruptly

00:16:08and ask the person,

00:16:09Why are you following me?

00:16:11D. Try to go around the house

00:16:13to get back to your starting position.

00:16:15If the person goes around as well,

00:16:17it means that they are following you.

00:16:24Options A, B and D are correct.

00:16:27Of course, it is better to avoid

00:16:29directly confronting your pursuer.

00:16:32It is now obvious that the stranger is following you.

00:16:35Don't panic.

00:16:36You will need cold blood to stop him.

00:16:38And this group of people over there could help you.

00:16:40What should you do now?

00:16:42A. Shout for help as loud as you can

00:16:44and run towards them.

00:16:46B. Approach them and ask them to accompany you.

00:16:49C. Pretend you know them.

00:16:51You greet them and while they pass in front of you,

00:16:53you explain the situation to them

00:16:55and ask them to accompany you to a public space

00:16:57from where you can take a taxi

00:16:59to go home and ask your friends

00:17:01to pick you up.

00:17:02D. All the options above are acceptable.

00:17:06Options A, B and D are correct.

00:17:11The only possible option here is C.

00:17:13It is too dangerous to shout in an empty street

00:17:15before reaching people

00:17:17or to show your pursuer where you live.

00:17:19He could come back the next day.

00:17:22Now, imagine that the street is absolutely empty

00:17:25and that you have no one to ask for help.

00:17:27This means that you have to go to an animated street

00:17:30as soon as possible.

00:17:31What should you not do by going there?

00:17:34There are two good answers here.

00:17:37A. If you wear a hooded sweater,

00:17:39go into the hood of your sweater to hide it.

00:17:41B. Detach your hair if you have them

00:17:44in a ponytail or a bun.

00:17:46C. Take your phone and pretend to send

00:17:48a text message to someone

00:17:50or to surf the Internet.

00:17:51D. Touch your pockets pretending

00:17:53you have lost your wallet.

00:17:55E. Start walking quickly

00:17:57in the direction of your pursuer.

00:18:05The two options to avoid here are C and E.

00:18:08It is better not to take out your phone

00:18:10because the light of the screen will make it more difficult

00:18:12to adapt your eyes in the dark.

00:18:14Looking at your phone will also slow you down.

00:18:17You have to walk in the opposite direction

00:18:19to that of your pursuer, of course.

00:18:21With options A and B,

00:18:23it will be more difficult for your pursuer

00:18:25to catch you by the hair or clothes

00:18:27if he has nothing to cling to.

00:18:30By walking in the direction of an animated street,

00:18:33pay attention to every detail that surrounds you.

00:18:35Mentally note the name of the street

00:18:37and the numbers of the houses.

00:18:38And remember the shops and buildings

00:18:40that surround you.

00:18:41You may need them later.

00:18:43But what should you do with your pursuer?

00:18:46A. Do not look at him at all.

00:18:49B. Avoid eye contact by all means.

00:18:53C. Try to look as small as possible

00:18:55and keep your chin down

00:18:57to show how scared you are.

00:18:59D. Turn around, look at your pursuer

00:19:01and remember every detail about him.

00:19:03His clothes, the color of his eyes,

00:19:05his height and his approximate age.

00:19:13The answer D is the right one, of course.

00:19:15You have to study the stranger in detail

00:19:17to be able to give a precise description

00:19:19later on.

00:19:21By establishing a visual contact,

00:19:23you will send him a message,

00:19:24I see you.

00:19:26Your confidence will make him uncomfortable

00:19:28and will probably make him reconsider his plans.

00:19:31Attacking someone who has a high head

00:19:33requires a lot of courage

00:19:34and the pursuers are generally not so brave.

00:19:39Ok, this is not to scare you,

00:19:41but what do you do if the pursuer approaches you

00:19:43and asks you something?

00:19:48There are several good answers here.

00:19:51A. You keep a constant visual contact.

00:19:54B. You engage a conversation with him.

00:19:57If he asks you how to go somewhere,

00:19:59you explain it to him in every detail.

00:20:02C. If you carry books or shopping bags,

00:20:04you are ready to drop them

00:20:06as soon as you feel that something is wrong.

00:20:08D. You don't stay silent.

00:20:10You make noise when you try to leave

00:20:12and you shout out rather than help.

00:20:20All the answers are correct,

00:20:22except B.

00:20:24You just have to say briefly,

00:20:25I don't know, to everything he asks you.

00:20:28And about this story of fire,

00:20:30people react more often to this word

00:20:31than to a general call for help.

00:20:35For more security,

00:20:36take out your keys and place them in your palm,

00:20:38the teeth of the keys exceeding your fist.

00:20:41At worst, you will have something sharp to defend yourself

00:20:44and you will be able to escape.

00:20:47When you manage to escape from your harasser,

00:20:49take out your phone and call the police.

00:20:51You will need all the details

00:20:52on the place where you are

00:20:54and on the person who is following you.

00:20:57What to do if you notice that someone is following you in public?

00:21:00He stops at every store where you stop.

00:21:02Pretend to check his phone

00:21:04every time you do the same

00:21:05and follow you step by step.

00:21:08What should you do then?

00:21:09There are several good answers here.

00:21:13A. If your jacket is a different color than your shirt,

00:21:16you take it off.

00:21:17The harasser could lose you in the crowd.

00:21:20B. You enter a restaurant or a cafe,

00:21:22you go straight to the toilets

00:21:24and you stay there for 5 to 10 minutes.

00:21:26Your harasser should be impatient and leave.

00:21:29C. You start screaming to get attention.

00:21:31Let everyone panic with you.

00:21:34D. You wait in line,

00:21:35you order something

00:21:36and you let one of the staff members know

00:21:38that someone is following you.

00:21:46Panic has never helped anyone,

00:21:47so option C is the only wrong answer here.

00:21:50You just have to inform the staff

00:21:52that there is a problem

00:21:53and let them keep an eye on you.

00:21:55Then sit down with your order

00:21:57and send a message to your friends or family

00:21:59to tell them that you need them to come get you

00:22:01or keep you company.

00:22:03Let's imagine a different scenario.

00:22:05Someone might follow you in a car.

00:22:07You slow down and he slows down.

00:22:09You turn right and he follows you.

00:22:12You accelerate and he accelerates.

00:22:14But you want to make sure that he really follows you.

00:22:16How are you going to do that?

00:22:18A. You stop abruptly

00:22:20by passing in front of the traffic lights.

00:22:22B. You knock on your window and shout,

00:22:24Help!

00:22:26C. You go home immediately.

00:22:28If the car is following you,

00:22:29it's clearly not a coincidence.

00:22:32D. You turn right three times

00:22:33by going around the house.

00:22:40The right answer here is D.

00:22:43Option A is not a good idea

00:22:44because you don't want to have an accident, right?

00:22:47B is a little stupid

00:22:48and C is to be prescribed.

00:22:51You should never let your pursuer know where you live.

00:22:54Even if you get there safely today,

00:22:56he could wait for you the next day.

00:22:59D. D is logical

00:23:00because no one will go around the neighborhood for no reason.

00:23:05Unfortunately, you are now 100% sure

00:23:07that you have unwanted company.

00:23:11What do you do next?

00:23:12There are two good answers here.

00:23:15A. You don't let your pursuer fuck you.

00:23:18B. You drive to a more frequented neighborhood.

00:23:21C. You try to establish contact with your pursuer.

00:23:25D. You stop driving and get out of the car.

00:23:34Answers A and B are correct.

00:23:36You must always keep some space to maneuver

00:23:38and it is easier to escape by a frequented street.

00:23:41Don't let your pursuer know that you are aware of his presence.

00:23:44He could take his distance with you

00:23:46and it will be harder for you to remember important details about him.

00:23:50Don't get out of your car.

00:23:52Lock all doors and go up the windows.

00:23:55If he still follows you,

00:23:56call the police using free hand technology

00:23:58or enter a service station and call them from there.

00:24:01Or drive directly to the nearest police station.

00:24:05If you have answered correctly at least 5 of these questions,

00:24:07everything is fine.

00:24:09You won't panic because you know exactly what to do

00:24:11when someone follows you.

00:24:14If you had trouble answering questions,

00:24:16it is not useless to review the safety tips in our videos.

00:24:22It's a beautiful Saturday afternoon

00:24:23and you are shopping in your usual supermarket

00:24:26when you come across a packet of fresh products.

00:24:30You check the information on the product.

00:24:32It seems to have exceeded its expiration date.

00:24:35So, why this strange shape?

00:24:38The answer is not always obvious.

00:24:40For some types of fresh products,

00:24:42such as meat, fish or seafood,

00:24:44sometimes even salads and cheese,

00:24:46scientists have developed something called MAP

00:24:49for Modified Atmosphere Packaging,

00:24:51or Packaging en Atmosphère Modifié in French.

00:24:54In order for these types of products

00:24:56with relatively short shelf life

00:24:58to remain fresh as long as possible,

00:25:00a combination of gases is introduced into the packaging.

00:25:03This happens even before the product reaches your store.

00:25:07A French professor at the Montpellier Pharmacy School

00:25:10came up with this method after noticing

00:25:12that fruits tend to stay fresh longer

00:25:14in low oxygen storage conditions.

00:25:18The types of gases contained in MAP packages

00:25:21can vary from one product to another,

00:25:23but the main idea is to reduce oxygen retention,

00:25:26usually replaced by nitrogen or carbon dioxide.

00:25:31Don't forget that an inflated bag of salad,

00:25:33even if it has not yet exceeded its expiration date,

00:25:36is not necessarily good to consume.

00:25:39The gases inside the bag can be a sign

00:25:41that the product is damaged.

00:25:43This is why the best thing to do when buying

00:25:46is to check that the product is not expired.

00:25:48If it has not exceeded the date,

00:25:50check if there are unusual odors

00:25:52or if the packaging is damaged.

00:25:54If something seems abnormal to you,

00:25:56it is better not to take any risks.

00:25:58You can contact any store employee

00:26:00if you have any questions or concerns.

00:26:02Nowadays, most supermarkets have a system

00:26:05that allows a logical order of purchase,

00:26:07such as buying non-perishable items first,

00:26:09then adding refrigerated or frozen products,

00:26:12and finally fruits and vegetables

00:26:14so that they do not end up crushed at the bottom of your basket.

00:26:19And while we are talking about fruits and vegetables,

00:26:21try to buy them in the morning if possible.

00:26:25Those who stay there all day

00:26:27may lose some of their shape and texture,

00:26:29while others may be a little flabby.

00:26:32Now, a little tip on waste management.

00:26:35Never buy more food

00:26:37than you intend to consume in a week.

00:26:39Most fruits and vegetables do not even last that long,

00:26:42so it is better not to give in to all your desires.

00:26:45Shopping with a full stomach can also help you,

00:26:47just like shopping with a pre-established list

00:26:50of things you need to buy.

00:26:52Carefully inspecting the packaging of each product

00:26:55can also save you from scams later.

00:26:57Refrigerated products should be fresh or touched,

00:27:00while frozen products should be solid

00:27:02and without signs of leakage.

00:27:04When you get home,

00:27:06make sure to refrigerate all products

00:27:08that must be there as soon as possible.

00:27:10In general, they should not stay out of the refrigerator

00:27:12for more than two hours,

00:27:14otherwise their quality may be altered.

00:27:16Buying aromatic herbs in pots

00:27:18may not be the first thing on your list,

00:27:20but it is certainly something to consider.

00:27:23Not only are they available for a modest price,

00:27:26but they are also easy to grow and maintain.

00:27:29Imagine a pretty aromatic herb garden

00:27:31right there on your balcony

00:27:33or even in your kitchen.

00:27:35Wouldn't that be nice?

00:27:36You will always have fresh basil

00:27:38to crown a pasta dish.

00:27:40And while you are still in the store,

00:27:42don't forget to buy coffee filters.

00:27:44You may not have a filter machine at home,

00:27:47but they have many other possible uses.

00:27:50They can be used to filter liquids,

00:27:52to safely stack delicate porcelain in your cupboards,

00:27:56or even to polish your windows or shoes.

00:27:59If your favorite fruits and vegetables are on sale,

00:28:01but buying large quantities would mean wasting them,

00:28:04think about freezing them.

00:28:06You can make reserves for smoothies,

00:28:08especially for the cold season,

00:28:10when the options are limited in terms of fresh fruits.

00:28:13And don't worry about catching the first thing on your list,

00:28:15especially if they may spoil quickly.

00:28:18Stores re-supply their products

00:28:20according to the principle of first come, first served.

00:28:23The items at the bottom of the shelves

00:28:25are therefore always a little fresher.

00:28:27The same goes for tea if you prefer it over coffee.

00:28:30Choose tea leaves instead.

00:28:32Not only will you reduce your expenses,

00:28:34but you will also be able to make your own home-made blend.

00:28:37Tea leaves also have a stronger flavor

00:28:40than tea sold in sachets.

00:28:42As for other household items,

00:28:44make reserves for light bulbs,

00:28:46paper towels and batteries.

00:28:48There is a good chance that one day you will need one of these items,

00:28:51which is why it is preferable to buy them in large quantities

00:28:54when they are on sale.

00:28:56They will never be wasted and, let's face it,

00:28:59it is always boring when the TV remote

00:29:02no longer works, but you have no more batteries.

00:29:05Try to reduce the number of times

00:29:07you go shopping to buy only one item.

00:29:10It is inefficient and you will probably end up

00:29:12buying things you don't really need.

00:29:15This shopping list is starting to make a lot more sense now, isn't it?

00:29:19Another list that is worth making?

00:29:21The one that contains everything you have in your refrigerator.

00:29:24Try to create such a list at least twice a week.

00:29:27Planning your meals at least one week in advance

00:29:30will also help you to reduce impulse shopping.

00:29:32If you already know what you will eat for Wednesday's dinner,

00:29:35why add something else to the basket if it is useless?

00:29:39At the same time, try to be creative with your leftovers.

00:29:42Why throw them away when you can mix and combine them

00:29:46or add some herbs or extra flavors to make them better?

00:29:50Store your leftovers in transparent containers for more visibility

00:29:54and don't be afraid to plan a leftover meal during the week.

00:29:57It is just as pleasant to consider them as ingredients

00:30:00rather than as vulgar leftovers.

00:30:02Use the leftover pasta or steamed cooked vegetables

00:30:05to make an omelette or an omelette.

00:30:08Mix your cooked vegetables with some tomatoes

00:30:10to create a sauce for the pasta.

00:30:12Prepare some wraps for the next day's lunch

00:30:14with anything from rice to meat, including vegetables.

00:30:18If you are really looking for the simplest method to preserve leftovers,

00:30:22you can always turn them into a soup.

00:30:24The accompaniment of vegetables from day to night

00:30:27can turn into a healthy lunch

00:30:29if you simply add a can of broth and mix everything.

00:30:32Even an old loaf of bread can be saved if you cut it diagonally,

00:30:36sprinkle the slices with some herbs and olive oil

00:30:39and put them in the oven for a few minutes.

00:30:42You will then have beautiful homemade croutons for your leftover soup.

00:30:46A little trick about labels never hurts anyone either,

00:30:50either because of the ingredients you've never heard of

00:30:53or those you can't pronounce.

00:30:55It is generally necessary to avoid products

00:30:57whose packaging contains more than five ingredients.

00:31:00Even the way you shop in the supermarket

00:31:03can have an impact on what you buy and how.

00:31:06If you prefer the baskets to the trolley,

00:31:08you are more inclined to make impulsive purchases.

00:31:11This is what a study published by the Journal of Marketing Research states.

00:31:15This happens because of the effort you make

00:31:17to actually transport the articles.

00:31:19By choosing a trolley, you will probably be comfortable enough

00:31:23to evaluate enough products and read the labels carefully.

00:31:27When your shopping list is not too long,

00:31:29opt for the trolley if it is available.

00:31:32Studies have shown that impulsive purchases are reduced to 32%

00:31:36if you have to scan your own articles when leaving.

00:31:39This is because the normal trolley line

00:31:41is specially designed to prevent you from leaving articles

00:31:44that you could have reconsidered.

00:31:46There is literally no place where you can leave your unwanted articles

00:31:50outside of your basket.

00:31:52And if there is someone else following you,

00:31:54good luck coming back.

00:31:56Food on the shelves can also be a threat

00:32:00to your budget and your habits.

00:32:02As people are more inclined to buy the articles they see first,

00:32:05the most expensive products are placed at eye level

00:32:08and the economic options are placed on the shelves at the top and bottom.

00:32:12Take your time and scan the aisles that interest you.

00:32:15You will be surprised to see that most of the articles

00:32:18placed on the upper or lower shelves

00:32:20are often not only more economical,

00:32:23but also less rich in additives or artificial flavors.

00:32:26In short, be careful.

00:32:27Supermarkets are a real jungle.

00:32:33The arid deserts that extend from your point of view

00:32:36seem lifeless on board.

00:32:38But among these sands,

00:32:40it is also possible to meet dangerous and sometimes frightening creatures.

00:32:44Some of them can only pose a slight risk to our health,

00:32:48but others will never be engraved in your memory.

00:32:51Let's get to know them,

00:32:53starting with the most moderately dangerous

00:32:55and ending with the real nightmares.

00:32:58You walk in the desert and you see a big teddy bear,

00:33:01arms wide open.

00:33:03You deduce that it is probably a mirage,

00:33:06but you still approach.

00:33:08You had just seen ...

00:33:10It's not a teddy bear, but a giant cactus.

00:33:13And there is something strange about it.

00:33:16Thanks to its strange pilosity,

00:33:18its branches seem to look like the arms of a teddy bear.

00:33:21However, it is not fur,

00:33:23but thousands of fine needles.

00:33:25And that's why you should not approach it.

00:33:28This cactus is called Cylindro Puntia Bigelowi,

00:33:31or Chola Urson.

00:33:33It grows in the desert areas of Arizona

00:33:36and in northern Mexico.

00:33:38Do not worry, this cactus will not attack you as much,

00:33:41but it will cling to your skin or your clothes

00:33:43if you have the misfortune to touch it.

00:33:46This fur coat protects the cactus from animals,

00:33:49creates shade and protects it from heat.

00:33:52The lateral branches are the most important parts of the plant

00:33:55because they carry out photosynthesis

00:33:57and accumulate a large amount of moisture inside.

00:34:01Thus, despite all the dangers it presents,

00:34:04this cactus can be useful for people who move in the desert.

00:34:08And the danger here are the needles.

00:34:11If you look at them closely,

00:34:13you will notice their bearded appearance.

00:34:15You just have to touch them

00:34:17so that hundreds of thorns sink into your finger.

00:34:19It is difficult to get rid of them

00:34:21and the thorns cause extremely unpleasant painful sensations.

00:34:25But what is most interesting with this cactus

00:34:28is the way it reproduces.

00:34:31The plant clones itself in a new place.

00:34:34When animals and humans pass in front of this cactus and touch it,

00:34:37it gives them a small piece of itself with its thorns.

00:34:40As soon as this piece falls to the ground,

00:34:42it takes root and begins to grow.

00:34:46We increase the degree of danger.

00:34:48The next desert monster is running towards us.

00:34:51And it's an ostrich.

00:34:53Many people think that these animals are poultrons,

00:34:56just good to bury their heads in the sand.

00:34:59You would probably change your mind

00:35:01if you had the bad luck to come across one.

00:35:03In general, ostriches are not aggressive,

00:35:06but you will have to take your legs at your neck

00:35:08if you ever approach their nest.

00:35:10However, you have little chance of escaping them,

00:35:13because ostriches have a top speed of 70 km per hour.

00:35:17You will need a car to distance them

00:35:19because they sprint and hit their enemy in the chest.

00:35:22It even happened that ostriches attack trucks

00:35:25and cause them significant damage.

00:35:28But the main danger represented by these volatiles

00:35:31lies in their powerful legs equipped with clenched claws.

00:35:35With these, they can deliver powerful blows

00:35:38and even hit an opponent on the ground.

00:35:40So yes, if you see an ostrich in the distance,

00:35:43make your way.

00:35:45This sly little lizard spends almost all his time underground,

00:35:49in the arid deserts of the Southwest of the United States

00:35:52and the Northwest of Mexico.

00:35:54Sometimes, he goes out to look for his meal.

00:35:57He looks like a trognon,

00:35:59but in fact, he is a very dangerous gila monster.

00:36:03His thick skin protects him from falcons, coyotes and other predators.

00:36:07But his main asset is his venom.

00:36:10Snakes and spiders inject their toxins

00:36:13using clenched claws.

00:36:15But the gila monster clings to its prey

00:36:18and swallows it to spread its venom.

00:36:20And when a person dies,

00:36:22he is able to keep his jaws closed for a very long time.

00:36:26It is difficult to get rid of the animal.

00:36:29People who have felt the effects of its venom

00:36:32say they had the impression that fused lava was passing through their veins.

00:36:36Despite this, the lizard proved useful to science.

00:36:39Doctors have exploited its venom

00:36:41to design drugs against diabetes and obesity.

00:36:45The time has come.

00:36:47Get ready to meet one of the scariest creatures in the desert.

00:36:51Make no noise and just enjoy the silence.

00:36:55Do not move, there is no one around.

00:36:58Suddenly, you hear a whistle coming from below.

00:37:01You lower your head and you see it.

00:37:03A big yellow spider the size of the palm of your hand,

00:37:06with powerful jaws and long legs,

00:37:08lurks in the shadow of your body.

00:37:10Horrified, you run away from this monster.

00:37:13But it chases you.

00:37:14It is not easy to do in such a situation.

00:37:17But try to calm down.

00:37:19The creature is not interested in you.

00:37:21It only wants your shadow to shelter from the scorching sun.

00:37:25In any case, it is better not to touch it.

00:37:29The powerful jaws of the lizard can cause very unpleasant sensations.

00:37:33It is the least we can say.

00:37:35Besides, this creature is not exactly a spider.

00:37:38Of course, it belongs to the arachnid class.

00:37:41But it is a distinct species.

00:37:43The Solpugidae.

00:37:46It likes to bite.

00:37:47It is not fearful.

00:37:48And even quite aggressive.

00:37:50The lizard feeds on insects, lizards, rodents and small birds.

00:37:55It can also move at a speed of 16 km per hour.

00:37:59Given its small size, it is very fast.

00:38:02You have to be a professional athlete to escape it.

00:38:05Most often, we find these Solpugidae in the deserts of the Middle East.

00:38:09But they also live in Mexico and in the southwest of the United States.

00:38:13These spiders are nocturnal.

00:38:15And try to avoid the sun during the day.

00:38:17So that they will always be in search of your shadow.

00:38:20Besides, they owe their name to the fact that they flee the sun in all circumstances.

00:38:25You will have no chance of escaping them during the day.

00:38:28But they will also want to take you during the night.

00:38:31Especially if you make a fire.

00:38:33The Solpugidae always run towards the light in the hope of catching something.

00:38:38Some species of spider lizards even emit a whistle to frighten their enemies.

00:38:43Let's calm down for a moment and leave this burning desert.

00:38:46We enter the humid tropics of Tanzania.

00:38:49Under the bark of the trees, the dead leaf mats and in the dark caves.

00:38:55You could meet one of the most terrifying creatures on the planet.

00:38:59The Amblypige or 24-hour spider.

00:39:03Imagine a big scorpion without a tail.

00:39:06With a flat body that seems to have been compressed.

00:39:09It looks like spiders but has no venom glands and cannot weave webs.

00:39:13This monster is fast and silent.

00:39:16But what is most frightening are its two front claws.

00:39:19Twice as long as the creature itself.

00:39:22Any prey that catches it will never be able to escape.

00:39:25His whole life spent in a dark cave has altered his sight.

00:39:28And the Amblypige tries to avoid the sunlight.

00:39:31During the night, he climbs to the ceiling and slowly gets rid of his old skin.

00:39:35Imagine directing your lamp to this place to see small cocoons.

00:39:39From where pale spiders with excessively long legs come out.

00:39:43If you meet this creature in real life.

00:39:46Keep calm and move away as far as possible.

00:39:49Stay on your guard.

00:39:51The Amblypige can slip under your clothes in a blink of an eye.

00:39:54And bite you in the abdomen.

00:39:56And it's nothing compared to what awaits you.

00:39:58Okay, it's a joke.

00:40:01This nice little guy is one of the most shy and harmless creatures among all the arachnids.

00:40:06He is afraid of us and will never take you.

00:40:09Many find him majestic and keep Amblypige in green terrariums.

00:40:14If you want such a pet.

00:40:17Watch carefully that he does not run away from his house.

00:40:20Because if this happens.

00:40:22It will be very difficult to catch him.

00:40:24In a few moments.

00:40:26He can slip under your bed or pass through the interstices of the floor.

00:40:29Then he will go to your neighbor's apartment.

00:40:32Through the ventilation system.

00:40:34And will terrorize the people who are there.

00:40:38Well, and why not a little scorpion for the road.

00:40:41The latter is not as scary as the other creatures in this video.

00:40:45But this is the most venomous scorpion in the United States.

00:40:49The Centruroide Sculturatus of Arizona.

00:40:52The problem is that it can be found in the desert.

00:40:55At home or in your garden.

00:40:57These dangerous venomous animals slip into rooms.

00:41:00And often sting people.

00:41:02One sting is enough to cause a pain similar to that of a bee sting.

00:41:07But an allergic person can suffer from paralysis.

00:41:10Respiratory distress and other extremely serious health problems.

00:41:15Seismic lights are one of the most mysterious natural phenomena.

00:41:20They can occur before, during or after an earthquake.

00:41:25They are generally white or blue and last only a short time.

00:41:29But they can sometimes stay up to 10 minutes.

00:41:32It is difficult to study them.

00:41:34Because they can occur at variable distances from the epicenter of the earthquake.

00:41:38We also know that they only appear during powerful earthquakes.

00:41:42Of a magnitude of 5 or more on the Richter scale.

00:41:46Scientists think they could be caused by the release of ionized oxygen.

00:41:51Which occurs when certain rocks crack.

00:41:54The following phenomenon is not spontaneous.

00:41:57But it is no less impressive.

00:41:59You have to go to La Macarena in Colombia to see it.

00:42:03This is the liquid rainbow of the Cagno Crystallis.

00:42:07Alias the river with 5 colors.

00:42:10You can see the river changing.

00:42:13From red to yellow, to green and purple.

00:42:16Depending on the light and the condition of the water.

00:42:19This amazing spectacle is caused by a remarkable aquatic plant.

00:42:23It stands on the rocks of the river.

00:42:25And gives the water a reddish color.

00:42:27This water is also very clear.

00:42:29With very little impurity.

00:42:31Which makes the red pigments even more visible.

00:42:34If you visit this amazing destination one day.

00:42:37You will also have the knowledge of a varied fauna around.

00:42:40You can see red macaws.

00:42:42As well as howling monkeys.

00:42:44Every autumn and every spring.

00:42:46A magnificent natural phenomenon occurs in the region of the Vaden Sea.

00:42:50In northern Europe.

00:42:52About a million and a half storks gather in the same place.

00:42:56To rest in the tall grass for the night.

00:42:59However, before nightfall.

00:43:01The storks can be attacked by hungry prey birds.

00:43:05The storks then form complex patterns.

00:43:08To escape the raptors.

00:43:10Which gives rise to a hypnotic ballet.

00:43:12This spectacle is known as the black sun.

00:43:15And involves thousands.

00:43:17Even millions of birds flying in formation.

00:43:20The reason for this synchronized flight.

00:43:22Is that it makes it more difficult for predators.

00:43:24To spot and capture a stork in particular.

00:43:27Volcanic sounds.

00:43:29Also called volcanic acoustic signals.

00:43:32Can occur before an eruption.

00:43:34They come from the pressure of magma.

00:43:36In the crevasses and tunnels.

00:43:38Explosions of gas bubbles.

00:43:40And thermal water networks.

00:43:42Near the surface of the volcano.

00:43:44When the magma rises.

00:43:46The gas accumulates and cracks the surface.

00:43:48The magma, rich in gas.

00:43:50Then produces a sound.

00:43:52Similar to that of a barbarian organ.

00:43:54Known as a volcanic tremor.

00:43:56The sound changes over time.

00:43:58Taking the appearance of a natural concert.

00:44:00A volcanic tremor.

00:44:02Is the sign of an imminent eruption.

00:44:04It is therefore preferable to take shelter.

00:44:06If we hear something unusual.

00:44:08Near the site of a volcano.

00:44:10One of the most unreal phenomena.

00:44:12That we can live on earth.

00:44:14It occurs near sand dunes.

00:44:16If you are at the top of a dune.

00:44:18You may have the chance.

00:44:20To hear one of the strangest things.

00:44:22Which is singing sand.

00:44:24In reality.

00:44:26Scientists have not yet fully understood.

00:44:28Why this phenomenon occurs.

00:44:30According to a theory.

00:44:32The sand would produce this sound.

00:44:34By sliding along the dunes.

00:44:36And would be caused by the friction.

00:44:38Between these grains.

00:44:40But how to recognize the sand field?

00:44:42It's a bit like a plane flying in the distance.

00:44:44One of the rare places on earth.

00:44:46Where the sand makes such a powerful noise.

00:44:48That it can be heard by tourists.

00:44:50Is the Namibian desert in Africa.

00:44:52Where the Barking Sands are located in Hawaii.

00:44:54To see a rare golden waterfall.

00:44:56You have to go to the Yosemite National Park.

00:44:58And more precisely.

00:45:00To the Horsetail Falls.

00:45:02You will have to plan your trip in advance.

00:45:04To be sure to arrive in winter.

00:45:06Or at the beginning of spring.

00:45:08It is the only period of the year.

00:45:10Where you can admire this magnificent spectacle.

00:45:12Let's be clear.

00:45:14This is not real gold.

00:45:16Which falls from the mountain.

00:45:18It is actually an optical illusion.

00:45:20At dusk.

00:45:22The sunlight hits the waterfall.

00:45:24It looks like a river made of gold.

00:45:26Or lava.

00:45:28In the California National Park.

00:45:30Of the Valley of Death.

00:45:32Some rocks seem to move by themselves.

00:45:34And leave traces behind them.

00:45:36Scientists first thought.

00:45:38That the Great Geocuckoo.

00:45:40You know.

00:45:42The beep beep of the cartoon.

00:45:44Could be at the origin of these movements.

00:45:46But this creature is far too small.

00:45:48To drag rocks.

00:45:50We also thought that the wind.

00:45:52Was carried by this one.

00:45:54Scientists have been studying these rocks.

00:45:56For years.

00:45:58But until 2014.

00:46:00No one had really seen them move.

00:46:02They were simply found in different positions.

00:46:04At different times.

00:46:06Thanks to chronophotography.

00:46:08We discovered that this movement.

00:46:10Was due to a combination of precipitation.

00:46:12Rapid temperature change.

00:46:14And a little bit of wind.

00:46:16When it rains.

00:46:18The water freezes sometimes.

00:46:20When the temperature rises.

00:46:22It starts to melt.

00:46:24And moves slowly.

00:46:26Dragging the rocks with it.

00:46:28The traces left solidify.

00:46:30Under the heat of the sun.

00:46:32The layer of ice that moves these rocks.

00:46:34Is very thin.

00:46:36And evaporates quickly.

00:46:38And that's why scientists.

00:46:40For so long.

00:46:42Had a hard time understanding this phenomenon.

00:46:44Have you ever heard of a dirty storm?

00:46:46Fasten your seat belt.

00:46:48It's a new type of tectonic dance.

00:46:50Even if we all wait for it with impatience.

00:46:52It's just a stylish name.

00:46:54To talk about lightning and thunder.

00:46:56Which occur during an eruption.

00:46:58During a normal storm.

00:47:00Positive and negative particles.

00:47:02Collide and create powerful sparks.

00:47:04And the rumbling you hear.

00:47:06It's thunder.

00:47:08But when a volcano starts to rumble.

00:47:10Some ash particles.

00:47:12Are electrified.

00:47:14And collide with each other.

00:47:16This causes electrical discharges.

00:47:18Which gives the impression.

00:47:20That the lightning comes directly from the volcano.

00:47:22With all these ashes.

00:47:24These fumaroles.

00:47:26And these gases in suspension.

00:47:28We would think we were diving.

00:47:30In a science fiction movie.

00:47:32And that's what we sometimes call a dirty storm.

00:47:34Have you seen this giant ray of light.

00:47:36Rising in the sky?

00:47:38It's what we call a luminous column.

00:47:40And don't worry.

00:47:42It's not witchcraft.

00:47:44When it's cold outside.

00:47:46These crystals that float near the ground.

00:47:48Reflect the direct light.

00:47:50And create these columns of light.

00:47:52Which seem to come from space.

00:47:54In reality.

00:47:56It's just a bunch of little crystals.

00:47:58Which show us their ability to reflect.

00:48:00And if you think these columns of natural light.

00:48:02Are cool.

00:48:04Wait to see those that are artificial.

00:48:06They can be even bigger.

00:48:08Because the light of the lighthouses.

00:48:10Is not quite the same.

00:48:12They can always reflect the light.

00:48:14Even if they are slightly tilted.

00:48:16Imagine that all this light.

00:48:18Comes from lighthouses.

00:48:20Located only a few meters away.

00:48:22So the next time you see a luminous column.

00:48:24Don't run to shelter.

00:48:26And enjoy the show instead.

00:48:28If you cross these weird shapes in the sky.

00:48:30Similar to bubbles.

00:48:32You can consider yourself lucky.

00:48:34These little wonders are called.

00:48:36Mammatus clouds.

00:48:38And they are not ordinary clouds.

00:48:40Clouds form when the air rises.

00:48:42Which makes them look like big cotton balls.

00:48:44But mammatus clouds.

00:48:46Form when the air sinks.

00:48:48Which gives them the air to float upside down.

00:48:50The air above and below.

00:48:52These clouds.

00:48:54Create a small turbulence.

00:48:56And before you notice it.

00:48:58The particles of the clouds.

00:49:00Form perfectly round orbs.

00:49:02Don't stay too long to look at them.

00:49:04Because they are often the sign.

00:49:06That a storm is preparing.

00:49:08It looks like the sun is wearing a festive hat.

00:49:10In the color of the rainbow.

00:49:12At the top of the metallic mountains in Germany.

00:49:14This phenomenon is called.

00:49:16A solar halo.

00:49:18And these snow-covered trees.

00:49:20Also seem to be part of the party.

00:49:22All this is due to the ice crystals.

00:49:24Which are in the clouds at an altitude.

00:49:26They like to bend and reflect the light.

00:49:28Which gives the impression.

00:49:30That the sun is dancing.

00:49:32Like in a lava lamp.

00:49:34And yes.

00:49:36You can stay in the corner.

00:49:38But don't let it spoil your fun.

00:49:40You can always stay in the corner.

00:49:42And take great pictures.

00:49:44It's time for the big spring cleaning.

00:49:46You put on a rag and a broom.

00:49:48To get rid of all these spider webs.

00:49:50On your windows.

00:49:52They have no chance this time.

00:49:54By removing a spider web after the other.

00:49:56You suddenly notice mud.

00:49:58With strange shapes.

00:50:00Stuck under the roof and the porch.

00:50:02What is it?

00:50:04It must be a mason geese nest.

00:50:06With so many nests side by side.

00:50:08There must be a nest.

00:50:10Fortunately.

00:50:12Mason geese are solitary insects.

00:50:14All these little huts.

00:50:16Are full of paralyzed spiders.

00:50:18Sometimes up to 500 spiders.

00:50:20Can be trapped in these boxes.

00:50:22Just waiting for the young geese to hatch.

00:50:24If the nest has holes.

00:50:26It can indicate that it is old or abandoned.

00:50:28Because mason geese.

00:50:30Drill holes to leave their nest.

00:50:32If you want to remove them.

00:50:34It is preferable to wait for the night.

00:50:36When they are not so active.

00:50:38Although they are quite placid.

00:50:40If they feel threatened.

00:50:42They will not hesitate to sting.

00:50:44It looks like an insect was half designed.

00:50:46Then his creator stopped.

00:50:48The mason geese.

00:50:50It really seems to come from another world.

00:50:52With mason geese claws.

00:50:54A mason geese body.

00:50:56And a shrimp head.

00:50:58This creature is a bit like the insect world.

00:51:00It is very active.

00:51:02And only dies if you trap it in your hand.

00:51:04And if you really bother it.

00:51:06It has another advantage in its sleeve.

00:51:08Its wings.

00:51:10They can spit a brown liquid that smells bad.

00:51:12Just like the fly.

00:51:14So just let them leave your house.

00:51:16And there will be nothing to clean.

00:51:18The rock basins are full of all kinds of plants.

00:51:20And animals.

00:51:22Marine creatures.

00:51:24Like sea stars.

00:51:26Marine herbs.

00:51:28If you think this little octopus has blue rings.

00:51:30It is better to leave it alone.

00:51:32It flashes in neon blue.

00:51:34For a good reason.

00:51:36This miniature octopus has a venomous bite.

00:51:38A thousand times stronger than cyanide.

00:51:40And without available antidotes.

00:51:42Do not try to tickle it with a stick.

00:51:44Or pick one up.

00:51:46It is not worth the trip to the hospital.

00:51:48Or the morgue.

00:51:50Earth snakes may be scary.

00:51:52Marine snakes are of a whole other level.

00:51:54In the Indian and Pacific Oceans.

00:51:56There are about 50 different species.

00:51:58Of marine snakes.

00:52:00And they are as beautiful as dangerous.

00:52:02Fortunately.

00:52:04They do not seem to care too much about us.

00:52:06The sea snake of Dubois.

00:52:08Is probably the most venomous in the ocean.

00:52:10Taloned, so to speak.

00:52:12By the sea snake Abek.

00:52:14Their venom would almost make you forget the bite of a cobra.

00:52:16The venom of these two snakes.

00:52:18Is extremely dangerous.

00:52:20Fortunately for us.

00:52:22It can take hours to cause symptoms in humans.

00:52:24And it would have to pierce your diving suit.

00:52:26If this fly lands on your arm.

00:52:28Outside.

00:52:30You could scream a little.

00:52:32We would not blame you.

00:52:34The scorpion fly, as its name suggests.

00:52:36Has a curved tail.

00:52:38Which looks like a scorpion dart.

00:52:40But you can blow.

00:52:42It is only used for coupling.

00:52:44It also has a long beak-shaped head.

00:52:46Which serves to feed.

00:52:48After stealing insects.

00:52:50In the spider web.

00:52:52It has a salivary gland.

00:52:54How romantic.

00:52:56If you are in Africa.

00:52:58You can pass next to this big bird.

00:53:00If you do not pay attention.

00:53:02The scorpion fly will move.

00:53:04When you pass in front of it.

00:53:06Being able to measure up to 1.5 meters.

00:53:08And have a wingspan of 2.5 meters.

00:53:10The scorpion fly looks like a predator.

00:53:12Although it is everything but that.

00:53:14Known as one of the slowest birds in the world.

00:53:16Almost a statue.

00:53:18The scorpion fly.

00:53:20It can catch fish near the surface of the water.

00:53:22Without worrying about the world.

00:53:24This bird is not at all afraid of humans.

00:53:26Although it is not very talkative.

00:53:28It will let you approach it enough.

00:53:30To take some pictures.

00:53:32If you hear a little squeak.

00:53:34While you are in the garden.

00:53:36It could be a mouse.

00:53:38A squirrel or a rhino.

00:53:40Which makes you know that you are too close.

00:53:42They love to make noise.

00:53:44When they are disturbed.

00:53:46With their giant horns.

00:53:48They seem to be able to defend themselves.

00:53:50But this is not the case.

00:53:52They only use it to move the leaves.

00:53:54And the sticks in their way.

00:53:56And to prevent other animals.

00:53:58From coming into the female's parishes.

00:54:00Not only do they have a horn on their head.

00:54:02But they also have a Herculean strength.

00:54:04They are able to lift.

00:54:06850 times their own weight.

00:54:08It's like you could lift 65 tons.

00:54:10Or 11 elephants.

00:54:14Living mainly in China.

00:54:16The U.P. deer is adorable.

00:54:18With its fur coat.

00:54:20Until it turns around.

00:54:22And turns out to be a vampire deer.

00:54:24Fortunately.

00:54:26This animal does not want to taste your blood.

00:54:28Or wear a cape.

00:54:30Only males grow these attributes.

00:54:32Rather than woods.

00:54:34During the season of love.

00:54:36In order to dispute territories.

00:54:38And females.

00:54:40These crows look more like.

00:54:42Elephant defenses.

00:54:44They run like dogs.

00:54:46And flee like cats when they are afraid.

00:54:48The red tide is a proliferation.

00:54:50Toxic algae.

00:54:52Which rises from the bottom of the sea.

00:54:54After particularly violent storms.

00:54:56This algae looks a lot like.

00:54:58Ketchup or rust.

00:55:00But it's much worse.

00:55:02For the life around it.

00:55:04Fish and marine organisms.

00:55:06Will try to escape.

00:55:08Once exposed to toxic algae.

00:55:10Present in their water.

00:55:12There are humans who are exposed.

00:55:14But if you eat seafood.

00:55:16Contaminated by these toxins.

00:55:18Things can get a little worse.

00:55:20So if the sea is red.

00:55:22Stay out of the water.

00:55:24Some spiders.

00:55:26Like to harbor bright colors.

00:55:28To show that they are dangerous.

00:55:30But not the Australian Robustus atrax.

00:55:32This shiny black spider.

00:55:34Does not need fireworks.

00:55:36To prove that it is strong.

00:55:38It can be very dangerous.

00:55:40When you are brave enough.

00:55:42To steal food from a jaguar.

00:55:44A lion or a hyena.

00:55:46What are you afraid of?

00:55:48These cousins of the Australian Robustus.

00:55:50Like to live close to our habitat.

00:55:52To feed easily.

00:55:54When they have enough of a place.

00:55:56They leave their web behind them.

00:55:58And go looking for a new place.

00:56:00Some say that rattles are intrepid.

00:56:02And in a way they may be right.

00:56:04When you are brave enough.

00:56:06To steal food from a jaguar.

00:58:54To steal food from a jaguar.

00:58:56Professional installation.

00:58:58And home installation.

00:59:00We will examine both.

00:59:02The systems installed by professionals

00:59:04require specialized supervision.

00:59:06And are generally the subject of a long-term contract.

00:59:08These systems are paying.

00:59:10However, the initial expense

00:59:12is generally relatively low.

00:59:14Because suppliers

00:59:16scale the costs

00:59:18over the entire duration of the contract.

00:59:20Once you have opted for a professional installation.

00:59:22The company will first organize

00:59:24an appointment with one of

00:59:26these experienced technicians.

00:59:28Who will proceed with an evaluation.

00:59:30And will explain to you all the options

00:59:32offered to you.

00:59:34And as long as your contract is in order.

00:59:36You can report to them all the problems

00:59:38you encounter with your system.

00:59:40They will ensure that everything works correctly.

00:59:42In short.

00:59:44A professional security system

00:59:46will allow you to relax.

00:59:48You will not have to spend hours

00:59:50watching tutorials or reading manuals.

00:59:52However.

00:59:54Professional security systems

00:59:56may not suit you.

00:59:58Especially if you are a tenant.

01:00:00Because the conditions of the contract

01:00:02can sometimes be restrictive.

01:00:04Or maybe you are not a tenant.

01:00:06And it is a question of budget for you.

01:00:08In this case.

01:00:10A home installation is probably what you need.

01:00:12The advantage is that if the average price

01:00:14is about 50 euros per month

01:00:16for a professional system.

01:00:18It is only 30 euros for a home system.

01:00:20In addition.

01:00:22You have nothing to spend

01:00:24for the installation itself.

01:00:26However, you will have to wait

01:00:28for a higher initial cost

01:00:30if you choose this option.

01:00:32And there is also the fact

01:00:34that a home installation

01:00:36may not be perfectly realized.

01:00:38There may be flaws

01:00:40that a professional would have detected.

01:00:42In the end.

01:00:44The most important thing

01:00:46before choosing a system

01:00:49Did you know that 34% of thieves

01:00:51pass through the front door

01:00:53to enter people's homes?

01:00:55If your door is not strong enough.

01:00:57It's a bit like inviting a burglar.

01:00:59It is therefore not enough

01:01:01to install a security system.

01:01:03You also have to inspect all your doors.

01:01:05Make sure that their chambers are robust

01:01:07and their hinges are well protected.

01:01:09You can always use reinforcement kits.

01:01:11If there is an opening

01:01:13for the mail in your door.

01:01:15Check that it is not possible

01:01:17to open it by hand.

01:01:19When you move into a house

01:01:21or an apartment where someone

01:01:23previously lived.

01:01:25Make sure to change the locks.

01:01:27You will ensure that no one

01:01:29will be able to enter your home

01:01:31using a simple key.

01:01:33Another way to secure your door

01:01:35is to install a connected camera.

01:01:37This one, offered by Amazon,

01:01:39is extremely easy to use.

01:01:41It is 100% wireless.

01:01:43It has an integrated rechargeable battery

01:01:45that will last between 1 and 2 months.

01:01:47So you won't have to recharge it too often.

01:01:49You can monitor the state of the battery

01:01:51using the phone app.

01:01:53It is also equipped with

01:01:55motion detection technology

01:01:57and night vision.

01:01:59And you don't have to worry about the weather

01:02:01because it is also waterproof.

01:02:03By the way, don't forget

01:02:05sliding doors.

01:02:07You can use bars or put

01:02:09pegs in the rails to prevent

01:02:11them from being forced.

01:02:13There are sensors that will let you know

01:02:15if someone is trying to open them

01:02:17to enter your home.

01:02:19Now let's talk about

01:02:21the basics of home security.

01:02:23The percentage of burglars

01:02:25who enter a house through a window

01:02:27reaches 23%.

01:02:29The main reason is that most of the time

01:02:31people forget to lock their doors.

01:02:33And burglars

01:02:35can always break a window.

01:02:37If you don't want that to happen,

01:02:39you can try to reinforce your windows

01:02:41with a safety film,

01:02:43add bars or install

01:02:45sensors.

01:02:47If that's impossible for you,

01:02:49you can also plant thorny shrubs

01:02:51under the windows of your ground floor

01:02:53to discourage burglars from entering

01:02:55your home by mistake.

01:02:57What's the difference

01:02:59between an actor and a burglar?

01:03:01Burglars don't like spotlights.

01:03:03It's always good to have

01:03:05an outside light.

01:03:07The lamps must be placed in front

01:03:09of your house, along the aisles

01:03:11and near the garage.

01:03:13To make these lamps even more effective,

01:03:15you can use motion sensors.

01:03:17For example, this one.

01:03:19It works with solar energy,

01:03:21so you can save money.

01:03:23And that doesn't mean you won't have

01:03:25any more light the day the sky is cloudy.

01:03:27It can work for five nights

01:03:29regardless of the weather.

01:03:31Burglars shouldn't be able

01:03:33to play hide-and-seek.

01:03:35If trees and shrubs can embellish

01:03:37your home, they can also

01:03:39be used to hide burglars.

01:03:41That's why you have to cut down

01:03:43your trees and plants,

01:03:45at least those near your walls.

01:03:47Choose flowers and shrubs instead.

01:03:49Burglars won't have any place

01:03:51to hide while you're gone.

01:03:53The same goes for portals,

01:03:55entrances and other

01:03:57exterior constructions.

01:03:59Make sure they're well locked.

01:04:01Burglars also use ladders

01:04:03and ladders to enter through the windows.

01:04:05So don't try to get them out

01:04:07by letting them hang outside.

01:04:09It doesn't make much sense,

01:04:11but I'll say it anyway.

01:04:13Lock your garage.

01:04:15Even if you can't get in

01:04:17through there,

01:04:19you'll probably keep some valuables

01:04:21that might interest the burglars.

01:04:23You'll also do well to store your

01:04:25garage door opener in your house

01:04:27rather than in your car.

01:04:29This way, burglars won't be able

01:04:31to get hold of it so easily.

01:04:33If you use a security code

01:04:35to open your garage,

01:04:37don't disclose it and avoid

01:04:39hitting it in front of strangers,

01:04:41including your neighbours,

01:04:43because you never know about

01:04:45some neighbours.

01:04:47Setting an alarm in your driveway

01:04:49will also help secure your garage.

01:04:51Burglars, but also

01:04:53package thieves,

01:04:55are a big problem today.

01:04:57Last year, about one in seven

01:04:59Americans were victims.

01:05:01This is where security cameras

01:05:03come in handy.

01:05:05First of all, they have a

01:05:07dissuasive effect.

01:05:09Secondly, if someone comes

01:05:11to steal your package,

01:05:13you'll be able to identify them

01:05:15with security footage.

01:05:17If you can't afford a good camera

01:05:19for the moment,

01:05:21you can buy a fake one.

01:05:23They're a lot cheaper and

01:05:25will give the impression

01:05:27that your house is protected.

01:05:29A small flashing light

01:05:31gives it a realistic look.

01:05:33Finally, and most importantly,

01:05:35a safe is always useful.

01:05:37And don't worry,

01:05:39it doesn't necessarily have to

01:05:41be one of those giant,

01:05:43unbreakable titanium safes

01:05:45you see in the movies.

01:05:47Some burglars will always

01:05:49break into your house,

01:05:51despite all your precautions.

01:05:53So you always have to make sure

01:05:55that your valuables are safe.

01:05:57Your jewelry, your most important files,

01:05:59everything will be well protected.

01:06:01If you get one,

01:06:03make sure it's sealed, waterproof

01:06:05and heavy enough

01:06:07so that a thief can't pick it up

01:06:09and leave with it.

01:06:11Better safe than sorry.

01:06:15Some nights,

01:06:17when the sky is clear

01:06:19above a powerful storm,

01:06:21you can see elves,

01:06:23gnomes, sylphs,

01:06:25and blue geysers.

01:06:27Blue geysers don't belong

01:06:29in this list, you say?

01:06:31Actually, I'm not talking

01:06:33about fairy tales,

01:06:35but about different types

01:06:37of visible lightning

01:06:39very high above storm clouds.

01:06:41Let's take the red sylphs.

01:06:43These flashes of light

01:06:45appear in clouds above storms.

01:06:47They are rare

01:06:49because they are caused

01:06:51only by a specific type of lightning,

01:06:53the ground cloud.

01:06:55A positive charge is transferred

01:06:57from a storm cloud to the ground

01:06:59when lightning strikes.

01:07:01This type of lightning

01:07:03only represents 10%

01:07:05of all lightning.

01:07:07For more than a century,

01:07:09people have believed

01:07:11that these lightnings were only urban legends.

01:07:13It is true that we saw them

01:07:15from time to time,

01:07:17but these lightnings were so brief

01:07:19that even if we had the chance

01:07:21to call a second person

01:07:23to witness the phenomenon

01:07:25and confirm it,

01:07:27even when respected experts

01:07:29or pilots spoke about it,

01:07:31the scientific community

01:07:33ignored them.

01:07:35In 1989, something strange happened.

01:07:37Researchers at the University of Minnesota

01:07:39managed to film sylphs.

01:07:41And that's how it all started.

01:07:43People from all over the world

01:07:45started sharing videos

01:07:47and photos of red sylphs.

01:07:51Red sylphs can appear

01:07:53in the form of balls

01:07:55of a hundred meters of ionized air.

01:07:57These balls descend

01:07:59from a height of about 80 km

01:08:01at 10% of the speed of light.

01:08:03And the researchers studied

01:08:05not only the lightnings

01:08:07falling from the storm clouds,

01:08:09but also these colored flashes

01:08:11going up into space.

01:08:13Thus, electricity rises

01:08:15up to the ionosphere,

01:08:17but at the same time,

01:08:19it descends to Earth.

01:08:21Red sylphs

01:08:23appear in different forms.

01:08:25For example, in the form of jellyfish,

01:08:27which can have a surface

01:08:29of 77 square kilometers.

01:08:31There are carrot-shaped

01:08:33and column-shaped sylphs.

01:08:35They are similar,

01:08:37but the carrots have long fangs.

01:08:39The lower part of the fangs

01:08:41is often blue,

01:08:43while their upper part is red.

01:08:45On August 22, 2022,

01:08:47we were able to take amazing photos

01:08:49of red-hot reds in the sky

01:08:51of Atacama Desert, Chile.

01:08:53They were surrounded

01:08:55by another more important

01:08:57greenish glow,

01:08:59what is called the night sky light,

01:09:01which is hardly distinguished

01:09:03when the light pollution is significant.

01:09:05This pollution is due

01:09:07to artificial light.

01:09:09It prevents us from observing

01:09:11the stars and other objects

01:09:13that we could normally see

01:09:15This air glow

01:09:17is due to the atoms of nitrogen

01:09:19and oxygen present in the atmosphere.

01:09:21The light of the sun

01:09:23erases their electrons during the day.

01:09:25They then recombine

01:09:27slowly, and this process

01:09:29makes them shine.

01:09:31How can we see

01:09:33a red sylph?

01:09:35First of all, we have to find

01:09:37a big storm. They are more frequent

01:09:39in summer and spring,

01:09:41for example in June.

01:09:43Sylphs can appear at any time

01:09:45if there is a powerful storm,

01:09:47with lightning on the ground.

01:09:51The sky must be clear and very dark,

01:09:53ideally without moonlight.

01:09:55The storm must be

01:09:57at a distance between

01:09:59160 and 320 km.

01:10:01Thus, the clouds will not obstruct the sky

01:10:03and the visibility will be better.

01:10:05In the ideal scenario,

01:10:07the storm will move along a distant horizon,

01:10:09so that it will be possible

01:10:11to see above the clouds.

01:10:13We can follow a storm with a meteorological radar.

01:10:15Your eyes need

01:10:17some time to adapt

01:10:19to the darkness around you.

01:10:21Give them some time,

01:10:23about 20 to 30 minutes.

01:10:25Keep your eyes above the clouds

01:10:27and try not to look at them directly.

01:10:29Ignore the lightning.

01:10:33A sylph may appear once

01:10:35every two light scenes.

01:10:37Do not hope to capture all this with your camera.

01:10:39It is not easy,

01:10:41but the show will be worth waiting for.

01:10:45We call this phenomenon,

01:10:47and other similar ones,

01:10:49TLEs,

01:10:51the English acronym for

01:10:53Transitional Light Phenomena.

01:10:55Light blue also deserves our attention.

01:10:57These are low blue lights

01:10:59that rise very quickly

01:11:01above powerful hail storms.

01:11:03They are also very rare

01:11:05and, in most cases,

01:11:07you will only see them on a plane.

01:11:09And now,

01:11:11let's talk a little about these fairy tale creatures.

01:11:13The elves in the world of lightning

01:11:15are short discs of light

01:11:17that can be seen at about 100 km

01:11:19in the atmosphere.

01:11:21It's just an acronym.

01:11:23Their full name is

01:11:25Light Emission and Very Low Frequency Disturbance

01:11:27Due to Electromagnetic Impulse Sources.

01:11:29Yes,

01:11:31we can continue to use the word elf.

01:11:33And there are the trolls.

01:11:35These are red spots

01:11:37that appear near the top of the clouds

01:11:39after the flash of a very powerful red silph.

01:11:43The gnomes are the smallest

01:11:45and fastest lightning.

01:11:47These are tiny points of white light

01:11:49that spring from the top of a large

01:11:51cloud of storm clouds.

01:11:55The cloud is an elongated cloud

01:11:57that we see at the top of a storm.

01:11:59It spreads in the direction of the wind

01:12:01at an altitude.

01:12:03These clouds only last a microsecond.

01:12:07And look at this.

01:12:09The ball lightning is in the form of

01:12:11flaming orbs that can be as big

01:12:13as a golf ball and even reach

01:12:15the size of a big beach ball.

01:12:17They can be yellow, red,

01:12:19white, orange, green or purple.

01:12:21They can be visible

01:12:23for a few seconds,

01:12:25even a few minutes.

01:12:27Over the centuries,

01:12:29many people have told

01:12:31that they have seen balls

01:12:33floating up to their houses.

01:12:35But such events are really

01:12:37unpredictable and rarely occur.

01:12:41Scientists have managed to recreate

01:12:43this lightning in a laboratory

01:12:45or at least something very close.

01:12:47They realized that it appears

01:12:49after a lightning struck the ground

01:12:51and results from the vaporization

01:12:53of various mineral particles.

01:12:57Here is something spectacular.

01:12:59Volcanic lightning.

01:13:01It is born in the impact

01:13:03of an eruption.

01:13:05Like any storm,

01:13:07volcanic lightning is formed

01:13:09when static electricity accumulates

01:13:11in the Earth's atmosphere.

01:13:13It is then released

01:13:15in the form of lightning.

01:13:17Scientists do not yet understand

01:13:19the whole process,

01:13:21but they think it is linked

01:13:23to a powerful charge.

01:13:25For example, the ice charge

01:13:27also plays a role

01:13:29in the production of lightning

01:13:31during volcanic eruptions.

01:13:33This phenomenon occurs

01:13:35when the air heated by an eruption

01:13:37rises in the sky and meets cold air.

01:13:39The water from the eruption

01:13:41turns into ice particles

01:13:43and, when these particles

01:13:45hit each other,

01:13:47some electrons go in all directions.

01:13:49The ice particles,

01:13:51which now have a positive charge,

01:13:53move higher in the sky

01:13:55It can also be a frictional charge,

01:13:57another event

01:13:59that leads to volcanic lightning.

01:14:01The phenomenon is similar

01:14:03to that of the ice charge,

01:14:05except that here it is ashes

01:14:07and pieces of rock

01:14:09that collide and create

01:14:11an electric charge.

01:14:13There are also gamma-ray flashes.

01:14:15More than 10 years ago,

01:14:17researchers discovered

01:14:19that storms could generate

01:14:21short but very strong gamma-ray flashes,

01:14:23that they can blind

01:14:25the sensors of satellites,

01:14:27even when they are

01:14:29hundreds of kilometers away.

01:14:31They can also create antimatter.

01:14:33Antimatter is a type of matter

01:14:35composed of charged particles

01:14:37opposite to that of normal matter.

01:14:39Imagine that you are two boxes

01:14:41filled with blocks.

01:14:43Some blocks are red

01:14:45and others are blue.

01:14:47When these blocks touch each other,

01:14:49they disappear

01:14:51and particles of matter and antimatter

01:14:53meet.

01:14:55These flashes could be the result

01:14:57of gamma rays,

01:14:59because they emit a light

01:15:01that is not really visible.

01:15:03Ordinary lightning involves

01:15:05slow electrons.

01:15:07In gamma-ray flashes,

01:15:09electrons are very energetic.

01:15:11They crash on air molecules

01:15:13and produce this strange phenomenon.

01:15:15It's a phenomenon that happens

01:15:17every 43.8 seconds.

01:15:19In the end, someone gets his precious car

01:15:21stolen by thugs.

01:15:23If you want to know more about these

01:15:25disappointing statistics,

01:15:27here are the results.

01:15:29More than 800,000 car thefts

01:15:31were reported in the United States

01:15:33in 2020 alone.

01:15:35Ford pick-ups win the palm

01:15:37of the choice of thieves,

01:15:39because it is the one that has been

01:15:41stolen the most.

01:15:43The New Year is also the day

01:15:45when the largest number of thefts

01:15:47occur.

01:15:49It is very unlikely that someone

01:15:51steals your car while you are

01:15:53on the move.

01:15:55But once you've parked it,

01:15:57it's much easier.

01:15:59So you have to park carefully.

01:16:01Yes, sometimes you'll have to walk

01:16:03a little, but it's worth it

01:16:05if it means leaving your car

01:16:07in a well-lit place.

01:16:09Badly parked cars are often

01:16:11removed by pick-ups.

01:16:13It turns out that they are not

01:16:15real or fake.

01:16:17A real pick-up should at least

01:16:19have a company logo and its

01:16:21staff should wear a uniform.

01:16:23Do you remember that I told you

01:16:25that it was not so easy to steal

01:16:27your car while you were driving?

01:16:29Sorry, but it's only partially true.

01:16:31Car thieves don't care

01:16:33that you are sitting in your car.

01:16:35The trick is simple.

01:16:37Even if you are inside your vehicle,

01:16:39always make sure to lock the doors.

01:16:41Carjackers usually have

01:16:43clever strategies to get

01:16:45motorists out of their vehicle.

01:16:47They can even set up a car accident.

01:16:49So even if you notice

01:16:51that your car has been

01:16:53hit from behind,

01:16:55don't rush out of your vehicle

01:16:57to see what it is.

01:16:59Wait a little before parking.

01:17:01Make sure that the place

01:17:03where you are going to stop

01:17:05is safe and that there are

01:17:07people around you.

01:17:09If you have any doubts,

01:17:11here are some tips.

01:17:13It is possible to set up a car accident

01:17:15remotely.

01:17:17This is not only a great idea

01:17:19for those who live in cold regions

01:17:21and who need to start their car

01:17:23in advance.

01:17:25Its main advantage is that

01:17:27you cannot run away with a

01:17:29car accident in this way

01:17:31because this mode does not

01:17:33allow you to speed up.

01:17:35Every car has a vehicle

01:17:37identification number.

01:17:39When a car is stolen,

01:17:41a vehicle identification number

01:17:43is changed.

01:17:45This allows you to hide

01:17:47a stolen car and use

01:17:49another car's

01:17:51identification number.

01:17:53If, on the contrary,

01:17:55you have engraved your

01:17:57vehicle identification number

01:17:59on each window of your car,

01:18:01thieves will immediately

01:18:03see that your car is

01:18:05safe.

01:18:07They will probably have to

01:18:09completely change the windows,

01:18:11which is very expensive.

01:18:13The resale of such a car

01:18:15would therefore take too much

01:18:17time for the thief and

01:18:19they are not ready to make

01:18:21so much effort.

01:18:23These people do not even

01:18:25want to work.

01:18:27They are far too lazy

01:18:29to take care of this

01:18:31window story.

01:18:33By the way,

01:18:35the car's vehicle

01:18:37identification number

01:18:39can be very useful.

01:18:41Some cars are in some way

01:18:43cloned, which means that

01:18:45their identification number

01:18:47is not real but has simply

01:18:49been added manually to the

01:18:51plate. So check all the

01:18:53documents before buying

01:18:55a used car. Pay special

01:18:57attention to the document

01:18:59DVLA V5 and make sure

01:19:01that the vehicle's

01:19:03identification number is

01:19:05even more unpleasant than

01:19:07that of an alarm clock.

01:19:09It can perform the following

01:19:11functions. First, it emits

01:19:13a very loud noise that can

01:19:15scare off intruders and

01:19:17alert passers-by.

01:19:19Secondly, it can send you

01:19:21an alert message in case

01:19:23you have not heard the

01:19:25deafening honk it emits.

01:19:27Another secret mechanism

01:19:29that can protect your car.

01:19:31When you get out of the car,

01:19:33all you have to do is press a button.

01:19:35Even if intruders steal your keys

01:19:37in some way or another,

01:19:39it will be of no use to them.

01:19:41They will first have to find

01:19:43this switch to start the car.

01:19:45It's up to you to decide

01:19:47where you're going to hide it.

01:19:49We all know that the safer

01:19:51our car is, the better.

01:19:53Criminals don't like to

01:19:55mess with new technology

01:19:57and statistics show it.

01:19:59However, modern doesn't mean

01:20:01safe.

01:20:03Many recent models have

01:20:05OBD ports for engine management.

01:20:07It seems very practical,

01:20:09but there is a drawback.

01:20:11These ports can help you unlock

01:20:13and even start the car.

01:20:15Therefore, if your car is equipped

01:20:17with such a device,

01:20:19think about getting yourself

01:20:21a lockable cover.

01:20:23Always check if you have

01:20:25closed the windows properly

01:20:27so you don't open the door

01:20:29and steal the car.

01:20:31Yes, don't tell me it's obvious.

01:20:33I see cars every day

01:20:35whose windows are open.

01:20:37If a thief really wants it,

01:20:39he can simply break a window

01:20:41with a heavy object,

01:20:43or even a rock.

01:20:45You see where I'm coming from?

01:20:47Try not to make the thief

01:20:49want to open your car.

01:20:51This means that no valuables

01:20:53should be visible.

01:20:55If you have a safe,

01:20:57take it with you.

01:20:59Don't show the thief

01:21:01that there is something

01:21:03they can steal from you.

01:21:05Keeping a double key

01:21:07in the glove box

01:21:09is not the best idea either.

01:21:11Thieves know where to look for it.

01:21:13It's very simple.

01:21:15After opening the door,

01:21:17which is not very complicated,

01:21:19all they have to do

01:21:21is look in the glove box

01:21:23and steal your car.

01:21:25It's up to you.

01:21:27So, at least try to install

01:21:29a steering wheel anti-theft device.

01:21:31It's probably not very functional,

01:21:33but experts say it's an effective

01:21:35visual deterrent.

01:21:37Do you remember that thieves

01:21:39are a bit lazy and don't want

01:21:41to get their hands on gadgets?

01:21:43Experts say that thieves are more inclined

01:21:45to ignore a car equipped

01:21:47with a steering wheel lock system.

01:21:49Some of them are very functional.

01:21:51If a thief wants to steal your car,

01:21:53he won't be able to do it

01:21:55because it's not easy to get rid of it.

01:21:57Here is the most obvious advice.

01:21:59It's video surveillance.

01:22:01There is a wide variety of cameras

01:22:03of this type.

01:22:05They have night vision modes,

01:22:07person detection functions

01:22:09and a very high resolution.

01:22:11A real camera can help you

01:22:13monitor your car 24 hours a day,

01:22:15but if you don't want to spend

01:22:17money on it, you can install a fake one

01:22:19and you won't be noticed.

01:22:21Let's imagine the worst.

01:22:23Someone ignored all the advice

01:22:25and got their car stolen.

01:22:27What should they do?

01:22:29First of all, they need to provide

01:22:31a bunch of information to the police.

01:22:33So make sure you know the color well.

01:22:35I know, it seems easy.

01:22:37But don't use complicated terms

01:22:39to describe it.

01:22:41For example, it's not foam,

01:22:43but dark green.

01:22:45You also need to know the year,

01:22:47so you can remember all these elements.

01:22:49The police should also know

01:22:51the license plate number

01:22:53and the car ID number.

01:22:55If you don't remember the ID number by heart,

01:22:57write it down on your phone, just in case.

01:22:59Oops, another robbery

01:23:01has just taken place in the United States.

01:23:03Another 22.6 seconds,

01:23:05and there will be another one.

01:23:07And this is the kind of thing that happens everywhere.

01:23:09But if you are prepared,

01:23:11everything will be fine.

01:23:13Here are some tips to protect your house.

01:23:15A simple sticker

01:23:17can greatly contribute to the security

01:23:19of your house.

01:23:21You can, for example, use one

01:23:23that indicates that you have a security system at home,

01:23:25even if in reality it is not the case.

01:23:27It may seem like little,

01:23:29but know that robbers

01:23:31don't like to complicate their lives.

01:23:33Another piece of advice.

01:23:35Make sure your sticker is realistic.

01:23:37A handwritten sticker will not do the trick.

01:23:39It is better to spend a little money

01:23:41for something convincing.

01:23:43Another tip

01:23:45is to leave a large pair of boots

01:23:47on your porsche

01:23:49and make sure the robbers see them.

01:23:51They will think there is someone

01:23:53potentially dangerous in your house

01:23:55and they won't want to come in.

01:23:59Well, now let's inspect your door.

01:24:01I hope you don't leave

01:24:03your keys under the straw.

01:24:05The only things you have to put under there

01:24:07are biscuits or chips.

01:24:09It's a way of knowing if someone

01:24:11is visiting you during your absence.

01:24:13But this tip is not 100% reliable.

01:24:15It may only be the delivery man

01:24:17or a dog

01:24:19coming to sniff your door.

01:24:21Yes, biscuits have their place

01:24:23in your stomach,

01:24:25not under the straw.

01:24:27You come home from work,

01:24:29your day has been hard

01:24:31and you are tired.

01:24:33You leave your key in the lock

01:24:35and you don't think about it anymore.

01:24:37The main thing is that you have locked your door

01:24:39but maybe a robber is hiding

01:24:41in the bushes, ready to take action.

01:24:43Technically, it should be impossible

01:24:45to use a copy

01:24:47and enter if there is a key in the lock.

01:24:49But these guys are well equipped

01:24:51and have a whole bunch of hooks

01:24:53to drop your key.

01:24:55And you know the rest.

01:24:57They will be able to enter your house

01:24:59as discreetly as ninjas

01:25:01and grab all your valuables while you sleep.

01:25:03A lock that can only be closed from the inside

01:25:05and cannot be opened from the outside

01:25:07should be a good solution.

01:25:11When you move into a new house,

01:25:13even if you are only a tenant,

01:25:15make sure to change the locks.

01:25:17Who knows how many people

01:25:19have a copy of your keys?

01:25:21As a tenant, you won't necessarily know

01:25:23who lived there before you.

01:25:25And if for one reason or another

01:25:27you accidentally forgot your keys

01:25:29on your front door for a moment,

01:25:31you must absolutely change your lock.

01:25:33Nothing serious will probably happen,

01:25:35but who knows, it's always better

01:25:37to be careful.

01:25:39You must not only make sure

01:25:41not to forget your keys

01:25:43on the wrong side of your door,

01:25:45but don't let them hang anywhere either.

01:25:47Bring them to your living room

01:25:49instead of putting them on this piece of furniture

01:25:51at the entrance.

01:25:53Robbers can pass through your door

01:25:55but also through a window.

01:25:57Be careful of your trash,

01:25:59especially if you throw expensive objects.

01:26:01Do not inform the robbers

01:26:03about your purchases and their prices.

01:26:05And then your trash can contain

01:26:07important information about your life,

01:26:09the coordinates of your credit card,

01:26:11for example, and much more.

01:26:17Watch your mailbox.

01:26:19Make sure it is locked.

01:26:21Its content could be of interest to burglars.

01:26:23The trick is simple.

01:26:25Lock your mailbox

01:26:27and make sure to tear all the documents

01:26:29containing your personal data.

01:26:33Now let's take a look at your lawn.

01:26:35I immediately see something wrong.

01:26:37I'm talking about these big bushes.

01:26:39Yes, I know you don't have time

01:26:41to go into detail,

01:26:43but the bigger they are,

01:26:45the better the burglars can hide.

01:26:47In addition, if your bushes and trees

01:26:49are badly cut,

01:26:51you could think that there is no one at home.

01:26:53Do you see where I'm coming from?

01:26:55Well, let's say

01:26:57you ignored my advice

01:26:59and burglars broke into your house.

01:27:01They will first try to find species.

01:27:05If you don't have any at home,

01:27:07you can pass this advice,

01:27:09but if you have any,

01:27:11show creativity.

01:27:13You can hide your species in a plastic bag

01:27:15and in a container with leftovers.

01:27:17You can also place this plastic bag

01:27:19in an empty bottle of detergent

01:27:21and store it in a cupboard or in the kitchen.

01:27:23Burglars will probably not

01:27:25put their nose in there.

01:27:27There are two things not to do.

01:27:29Buying money or jewelry

01:27:31in a medicine box is not very smart.

01:27:33And your freezer is not

01:27:35a good option either.

01:27:37It is a hidden too well-known

01:27:39from burglars.

01:27:41Let's see now

01:27:43how you keep your keys.

01:27:45Your car keys and house keys

01:27:47are on the same game.

01:27:49It may not be a great idea.

01:27:51First of all, imagine that you lose them

01:27:53and that burglars know where you live.

01:27:55Not only will they unload you,

01:27:57but you will also need a vehicle

01:27:59to transport all your valuables.

01:28:01Also pay attention

01:28:03to your garage key,

01:28:05especially if it is possible

01:28:07to enter your home through this room.

01:28:09And even if this is not the case,

01:28:11there are certainly things

01:28:13that will interest the burglars

01:28:15in your garage.

01:28:17Burglars are full of resources.

01:28:19They can sneak into houses,

01:28:21even through the smallest windows.

01:28:23If they generally prefer to go through the door,

01:28:25they are safe.

01:28:27By going through the window,

01:28:29they can hurt themselves

01:28:31or tear their clothes.

01:28:33If they leave traces of DNA,

01:28:35they can be found.

01:28:37But burglars make sure

01:28:39not to leave any traces.

01:28:41According to an English study,

01:28:43only about 3% of burglars

01:28:45would leave such clues

01:28:47on their passage.

01:28:49To protect you at night,

01:28:51there are several options.

01:28:53First, lock the door

01:28:55inside your lock.

01:28:57You can also use a spare key

01:28:59if you have one.

01:29:01In this way,

01:29:03you will make it extremely difficult

01:29:05or even impossible

01:29:07to use doubles by burglars.

01:29:09Second option, barricade yourself.

01:29:11You can use a heavy chair,

01:29:13a shelf, anything.

01:29:15But yes, why not,

01:29:17if you feel safer.

01:29:19If your door opens to the outside,

01:29:21it can be very practical.

01:29:23Lock it under the handle of your door.

01:29:25It is not the most powerful security system,

01:29:27but it can do the job.

01:29:29Attach the handles with a cable

01:29:31or a rope is also a solution.

01:29:35A false security camera

01:29:37can protect you day and night.

01:29:39Burglars are not as brave

01:29:41as you might think.

01:29:43If you have a real video surveillance system,

01:29:45make sure that the burglars

01:29:47do not deactivate it.

01:29:49It is very difficult to access.

01:29:51If you do not spend money

01:29:53to protect yourself,

01:29:55motion sensor lamps

01:29:57are exactly what you need.

01:29:59Burglars like dark places

01:30:01and when they approach your home,

01:30:03all this light will scare them.

01:30:05This solution works

01:30:07if burglars do not know

01:30:09if you are at home.

01:30:11If they are sure you are not there,

01:30:13it is much less effective.

01:30:15TV and radio monitors

01:30:17can make people believe

01:30:19that you are at home at all times.

01:30:21With motion sensor lamps,

01:30:23it is the perfect combination.

01:30:25This trick will protect you

01:30:27from most burglaries,

01:30:29but it is not a 100% guarantee.

01:30:31Some burglars do not hesitate

01:30:33to enter even if the TV is on.

01:30:35And a live alarm system.

01:30:37True or false, it does not matter.

01:30:39I'm talking about dogs, of course.

01:30:41Do you remember the boot trick?

01:30:43You can do the same with a dog

01:30:45by putting a large bowl on your porch

01:30:47but make sure it is realistic.

01:30:49The bowl must not be brand new,

01:30:51it must be a little shabby.

01:30:55Do you know all your neighbors?

01:30:57If not, it is high time

01:30:59that you prepare cookies

01:31:01and that you visit them

01:31:03to get to know them.

01:31:05First of all, burglars do not like

01:31:07to work in neighborhoods

01:31:09where people know each other

01:31:11and support each other

01:31:13so organizing with your neighbors

01:31:15is a great way to stay safe

01:31:17and, who knows,

01:31:19make new friends.

01:31:21You register in your hotel room,

01:31:23you connect to Wi-Fi,

01:31:25you jump on the bed

01:31:27and you publish 15 photos

01:31:29of your new view from the window.

01:31:31Once the initial excitement has passed,

01:31:33you notice a flashing light

01:31:35on your huge TV.

01:31:37Could it be that someone is watching you

01:31:39or have you just seen

01:31:41a flashlight?

01:31:43There are hidden cameras

01:31:45of all shapes and sizes.

01:31:47The big ones are easy to spot

01:31:49but the small ones can be as sneaky

01:31:51as discreet.

01:31:53They can be hidden behind furniture,

01:31:55in decorations or ventilation nozzles

01:31:57and everywhere you will have trouble

01:31:59noticing them.

01:32:01There are even special cameras

01:32:03that can be hidden in everyday

01:32:05mobile objects such as

01:32:07alarm clocks, frames, vases

01:32:09or that are not placed in a way

01:32:11to have the best view on your bed

01:32:13or bathroom.

01:32:15The easiest way to spot a hidden camera

01:32:17is to look for the reflection of the lens

01:32:19because all cameras are equipped with it.

01:32:21Turn off the lights

01:32:23and slowly scan the room with a flashlight,

01:32:25a laser pointer

01:32:27or a special wireless spy camera detector.

01:32:29These are equipped with infrared

01:32:31scanning lights and lighting.

01:32:33As soon as you discover

01:32:35a reflective red dot,

01:32:37turn off the flashlight to check

01:32:39if there is a hidden camera.

01:32:41Check the ventilation nozzles

01:32:43as well as all other holes and gaps

01:32:45in the walls or ceiling.

01:32:47Some advanced detectors even show

01:32:49what the camera sees,

01:32:51which greatly facilitates

01:32:53spotting and deactivation.

01:32:55However, these detectors only work

01:32:57on lit cameras that are constantly working.

01:32:59Your mobile phone

01:33:01can also help you detect

01:33:03these hidden threats.

01:33:05Take a break and take a walk.

01:33:07See if unknown devices

01:33:09appear on the screen.

01:33:11Another idea is to install

01:33:13a network scanning application

01:33:15that displays all devices connected

01:33:17to the Wi-Fi network you use at the hotel.

01:33:19Once the scanning is complete,

01:33:21study the list to find devices

01:33:23bearing a name such as

01:33:25Camera IP or CAM.

01:33:27In addition, you can put your phone

01:33:29in selfie mode, turn off the light

01:33:31and close the curtains

01:33:33while focusing on the screen.

01:33:35Keep your eyes open

01:33:37to spot possible white or purple lights.

01:33:39You can also play detectives,

01:33:41call a friend or a family member

01:33:43and start looking around your room.

01:33:45Hidden cameras should emit

01:33:47a kind of radio frequency.

01:33:49It is very likely that this

01:33:51interferes with the signal

01:33:53of your phone call.

01:33:55If you start hearing strange noises

01:33:57while you are on the phone

01:33:59in a specific part of your room,

01:34:01pay close attention.

01:34:03Check switches,

01:34:05power outlets,

01:34:07lamps and other objects

01:34:09you would normally not pay attention to.

01:34:11If they look a little crooked,

01:34:13if they have a hole

01:34:15or if they seem badly placed,

01:34:17it may be a sign that someone

01:34:19has trafficked them.

01:34:21Many espionage devices

01:34:23need wires and the person

01:34:25who installed them must have

01:34:27hidden these wires,

01:34:29but there is another area to inspect.

01:34:31Cracks, bumps

01:34:33or discoloration may be the sign

01:34:35that a microphone is hiding.

01:34:37The same goes for stains

01:34:39on ceilings and walls,

01:34:41even if they are not bigger

01:34:43than a coin.

01:34:45If you find a hidden camera

01:34:47or something suspicious,

01:34:49do not hesitate to inform

01:34:51the hotel's reception

01:34:53or the reservation service.

01:34:55Do not try to touch

01:34:57anything by force of order.

01:34:59After checking that there is

01:35:01no camera in the room,

01:35:03examine the mirrors.

01:35:05Someone could be watching

01:35:07from the other side.

01:35:09Start by checking if the mirror

01:35:11is embedded in the wall

01:35:13or if it can be adjusted.

01:35:15If it is a stainless mirror,

01:35:17it will be embedded in the wall.

01:35:19You can do a simple test

01:35:21to inspect your mirror.

01:35:23Press the tip of your finger

01:35:25and examine the imprint.

01:35:27If there is a small space

01:35:29between the imprint and the mirror

01:35:31where the glass should be,

01:35:33it is a mirror.

01:35:35On a stainless mirror,

01:35:37there is no such space.

01:35:39Another way to check

01:35:41if your mirror is semi-transparent

01:35:43is to tap the glass.

01:35:45If someone is watching you

01:35:47from the other side,

01:35:49the mirror will emit a hollow sound.

01:35:51A stainless mirror should

01:35:53be a mirror.

01:35:55Put your hands in a visor

01:35:57around your eyes.

01:35:59Do you see light behind the mirror?

01:36:01If so, you may be

01:36:03an inopportune spectator.

01:36:05Before leaving your room

01:36:07or going to bed,

01:36:09make sure that all doors

01:36:11are well closed.

01:36:13Through each door,

01:36:15you can hear not only

01:36:17the entrance of the room

01:36:19but also the door

01:36:21of the room.

01:36:23If you are sleeping,

01:36:25close the door

01:36:27and wrap a belt

01:36:29or a strap

01:36:31around the handle

01:36:33that closes the door.

01:36:35Close it

01:36:37and wrap it

01:36:39several times

01:36:41for additional protection.

01:36:43Another idea for a serene nap

01:36:45is to put your personal belongings

01:36:47near the door.

01:36:49If you travel

01:36:51with valuables

01:36:53and don't feel comfortable

01:36:55leaving them unattended,

01:36:57you can put them

01:36:59in the safe in your room.

01:37:01But as these safes

01:37:03use access codes

01:37:05instead of physical locks,

01:37:07someone in the hotel

01:37:09must know the code

01:37:11to unlock it,

01:37:13just in case.

01:37:15You can bring your own safe.

01:37:17These safes

01:37:19usually have enough space

01:37:21to contain your passports,

01:37:23cash and jewels.

01:37:25If you have to leave

01:37:27your laptop in the room

01:37:29and you want to make sure

01:37:31that no one uses a USB key

01:37:33to steal your data,

01:37:35here's what you can do.

01:37:37Leave a bottle of water

01:37:39or another object

01:37:41next to the USB port.

01:37:43Measure the distance,

01:37:45and place a pen

01:37:47parallel to the laptop

01:37:49at a certain angle.

01:37:51You can measure the angle

01:37:53with your smartwatch

01:37:55or your phone

01:37:57using the compass app.

01:37:59Again, if someone moves it,

01:38:01you'll know immediately.

01:38:03Even something as simple

01:38:05as a panel not being disturbed

01:38:07can help you know

01:38:09if someone has entered

01:38:11your room during your absence.

01:38:13If the panel is moving freely,

01:38:15someone has ignored it

01:38:17and tried to disturb you.

01:38:19In this case,

01:38:21you can contact the reception

01:38:23and ask if someone

01:38:25enters the room with you

01:38:27to ensure your safety.

01:38:29If you care as much

01:38:31about the cleanliness

01:38:33of your room

01:38:35as you do about your personal

01:38:37safety and business,

01:38:39this advice is for you.

01:38:41It takes more than 30 minutes

01:38:43to take care of your room.

01:38:45It gives them enough time

01:38:47to make the bed,

01:38:49clean the floor of the room

01:38:51and the bathroom,

01:38:53empty the bins

01:38:55and dust all the surfaces.

01:38:57But they rarely have time

01:38:59to take care of small objects

01:39:01like switches,

01:39:03door handles and drawers

01:39:05or remote controls.

01:39:07And yes,

01:39:09if they don't land on your hands,

01:39:11take enough antibacterial wipes

01:39:13to clean all these objects

01:39:15before touching them.

01:39:17Hey, look!

01:39:19It's your friend George

01:39:21and he has a dog

01:39:23you've never seen with him.

01:39:25It's his sister's new dog

01:39:27and he's so cute!

01:39:29You desperately want to pet him

01:39:31but before you act,

01:39:33here are a few points to consider.

01:39:35First of all,

01:39:37you should never pet your dog.

01:39:39He could be afraid of strangers

01:39:41or even be a little nervous

01:39:43in their presence.

01:39:45Who knows,

01:39:47he could be ill-lucky today.

01:39:49Maybe this time

01:39:51the fortune teller

01:39:53didn't bring him the cookie

01:39:55while delivering the mail.

01:39:57By looking at the dog,

01:39:59you can start to approach him

01:40:01carefully or even better,

01:40:03you can let the dog

01:40:05know that it's not a sudden gesture

01:40:07and that it doesn't look scary.

01:40:09Otherwise, it could give him the signal

01:40:11to defend himself

01:40:13and get back on his feet.

01:40:15It's not what you want.

01:40:17The final goal is for him

01:40:19to become your friend, isn't it?

01:40:21If you really want to be sure

01:40:23that he's ready to interact with you,

01:40:25ignore him.

01:40:27Okay, it seems counterproductive

01:40:29but imagine the scene.

01:40:31You're outside talking to your friend

01:40:33and you're trying to get his attention.

01:40:35The rest is easy.

01:40:37If you decide to approach him first,

01:40:39let him take the last steps

01:40:41and don't look him directly in the eyes.

01:40:43You probably already know

01:40:45that it's more polite to look someone in the eyes

01:40:47when you talk to him.

01:40:49It's a matter of common sense.

01:40:51Well, in the world of dogs,

01:40:53it means the opposite.

01:40:55He may not appreciate you

01:40:57if you look him in the eyes.

01:40:59He could even think you're rude.

01:41:01If you want to pet him,

01:41:03let him sniff you.

01:41:05Show him a relaxed posture

01:41:07but do it slowly

01:41:09because you don't want to scare your new friend.

01:41:11You can now stretch your hand

01:41:13but always slowly.

01:41:15Do it with your palm down

01:41:17and your fingers slightly bent down

01:41:19for safety reasons.

01:41:21A small bite can always hurt.

01:41:23Let the dog feel comfortable with you.

01:41:25If you notice he's sniffing your hand for a long time,

01:41:27let him do it.

01:41:29If he's too excited,

01:41:31he could invade your private space

01:41:33by jumping everywhere

01:41:35and licking you.

01:41:37Don't worry.

01:41:39Stay calm.

01:41:41If you start to feel uncomfortable,

01:41:43you can get out of this situation

01:41:45by turning your arms.

01:41:47This way, you'll get boring for the dog

01:41:49and he'll start to get disinterested in you.

01:41:51His master will then have the possibility

01:41:53to calm him down or even take him elsewhere.

01:41:55If you talk to the dog,

01:41:57make sure you speak in German

01:41:59because it's the most common language among dogs.

01:42:01No, that's wrong.

01:42:03Try to use a calm and reassuring tone.

01:42:07And now, here's the part you've been waiting for.

01:42:09You can let him pet you

01:42:11but don't jump on him

01:42:13and don't start to take him in your arms.

01:42:15Keep the rhythm you've had with him so far.

01:42:17Don't pet him on the head.

01:42:19Your hand won't be in his field of vision

01:42:21if you do that

01:42:23and you have to admit that a hand coming out of nowhere

01:42:26You can start by petting the dog's ears and neck.

01:42:29They also like to be rubbed on the back and shoulders.

01:42:31While petting the dog,

01:42:33keep paying attention to his body language

01:42:35because if his body is slightly curved,

01:42:37if he moves his tail

01:42:39and if he turns around you with excitement,

01:42:41it's a good sign

01:42:43and it means he wants to get to know you better.

01:42:45One thing we like about dogs

01:42:47when they play,

01:42:49is when they stretch their front paws on the floor

01:42:51while prostrating.

01:42:53He clearly wants to play.

01:42:55But be careful of the behavior

01:42:57that indicates he doesn't really appreciate your company.

01:42:59If he shows his teeth

01:43:01or growls at you,

01:43:03it's a sign that you have to step back.

01:43:05A stiff and straight tail can also mean

01:43:07that he feels threatened.

01:43:09There is also another way for dogs

01:43:11to show that they are stressed or anxious.

01:43:13To lick each other's balls or even bark.

01:43:15During your little interaction,

01:43:17always respect the dog

01:43:19and don't forget that he also has his limits.

01:43:21You go home

01:43:23and your own dog, Ricky,

01:43:25waits for you at your doorstep.

01:43:27Excited as ever,

01:43:29he licks your face and jumps around you.

01:43:31His best friend is at home.

01:43:33To make your dog love you even more,

01:43:35go to his level from time to time

01:43:37and lie down on the floor with your best friend.

01:43:39When you do that,

01:43:41give him lots of kisses and affection.

01:43:43They love it and will not fail to give it back to you

01:43:45a hundredfold.

01:43:47Well, you may have a little drool on your face

01:43:49but that's not a good thing.

01:43:51Look how happy he is to see you!

01:43:53It is important to keep him happy

01:43:55and one thing you can do

01:43:57is to take a tennis ball and play with him.

01:43:59It is not essential that it is a tennis ball.

01:44:01A plastic bottle of water

01:44:03will probably do just as well.

01:44:05Let's say you are walking in the woods

01:44:07with your four-legged companion

01:44:09and he brings you a huge stick.

01:44:11He wags his tail and you know he is proud of his find.

01:44:13If he tries to give you the stick,

01:44:15there is a good chance he wants to play

01:44:17and you can catch him.

01:44:19Pick up the stick and throw it far away.

01:44:21Your dog will come back with it faster than you think.

01:44:23But wait, he has two sticks now!

01:44:25It's certainly more fun!

01:44:27At the bottom of these woods,

01:44:29there is a small lake.

01:44:31Some dogs love water.

01:44:33If yours is part of it,

01:44:35it is very likely that at the beach

01:44:37or on the edge of a lake,

01:44:39he spends more time in the water

01:44:41than sitting next to you.

01:44:43But before taking him there,

01:44:45if he doesn't know how to swim,

01:44:47there is still a way for him to enjoy the water.

01:44:49It is a rescue vest for dogs.

01:44:51Just make sure to tie it well

01:44:53before you both do the big dive.

01:44:55Do you remember the time

01:44:57when you spent all afternoon

01:44:59playing hide-and-seek with your friends?

01:45:01Well, guess what?

01:45:03You can also do it with your dog.

01:45:05The smell of dogs is impressive

01:45:07and they love to prove it.

01:45:09You have probably noticed

01:45:11how much time they spend walking

01:45:13looking at the landscape

01:45:15and sniffing things.

01:45:17Choose a good hideout in your house

01:45:19and call your dog.

01:45:21He will come and look for you.

01:45:23There is a good chance

01:45:25that he will be confused at first,

01:45:27but once he gets used to the game,

01:45:29you will both have a good time.

01:45:31It is important to make sure

01:45:33that your dog is also sociable.

01:45:35Organize game dates as soon as you can,

01:45:37especially when he is still a puppy

01:45:39so that he learns that other dogs

01:45:41can do the same for your dog.

01:45:43He will be very excited

01:45:45if he meets someone new

01:45:47and if he has all afternoon

01:45:49to get to know him.

01:45:51You can even organize a dog party

01:45:53if you want.

01:45:55They will have a lot of fun

01:45:57and have a lot to share.

01:45:59At the end of the day,

01:46:01before going to bed,

01:46:03you can both enjoy

01:46:05some quiet time together.

01:46:07My dog loves my knees.

01:46:09He doesn't seem to understand

01:46:11what it means to pay his bills,

01:46:13but I can't say no to his cute little muzzle.

01:46:15So sometimes I put the work

01:46:17aside for a few minutes

01:46:19and I scratch his belly

01:46:21as he deserves.

01:46:23There are a lot of other things

01:46:25you can do,

01:46:27like taking your dog for a new ride.

01:46:29No matter his age,

01:46:31what matters is that he likes to learn.

01:46:33If he doesn't know how to ride himself,

01:46:35take a bag of treats

01:46:37and it might even be something cool

01:46:39to show your friends when they come.

01:46:41Well done, Ricky!

01:46:43That's a good dog!

01:46:45Did you know that most

01:46:47burglaries happen in the middle of the day?

01:46:49According to the FBI,

01:46:51burglaries happen in the middle of the day

01:46:53because people are outside.

01:46:55So don't let your house

01:46:57become an easy prey for thieves.

01:46:59Here are 10 tips

01:47:01to protect your home

01:47:03and some security items

01:47:05you might need.

01:47:07The first item on our list

01:47:09is the portable door lock.

01:47:11It's not just for ordinary houses.

01:47:13Let's say you live

01:47:15in a rental house

01:47:17where other guests come and go.

01:47:19You can take one of these

01:47:21portable locks with you.

01:47:23Many rooms are equipped

01:47:25with secondary locking mechanisms

01:47:27in addition to their usual locks,

01:47:29like security chains

01:47:31attached to the door, for example.

01:47:33These mechanisms are held

01:47:35only by screws,

01:47:37so it's easy to force them.

01:47:39There are many

01:47:41models of portable locks.

01:47:43So what should you look for?

01:47:45The ease of use is the key

01:47:47for installation and removal

01:47:49in case of emergency.

01:47:51Most door locks

01:47:53are suitable for such items.

01:47:55Adaloc is a good example

01:47:57and these locks are available online.

01:47:59They are relatively cheap,

01:48:01and most importantly,

01:48:03they come in one piece.

01:48:05A few seconds is enough

01:48:07to increase your security.

01:48:09Just insert the handles

01:48:11into the door latch

01:48:13and close it.

01:48:15The lock will be held in place

01:48:17by a handle.

01:48:19And that's the job!

01:48:21Carpenters rarely linger

01:48:23in your house and don't bother

01:48:25taking heavy objects

01:48:27like your TV.

01:48:29Le verre feuilleté

01:48:31is ideal for this purpose

01:48:33and it's a good investment.

01:48:35Normal glass windows

01:48:37can break easily,

01:48:39but le verre feuilleté windows

01:48:41act like shields.

01:48:43They can crack, but not break.

01:48:45Instead of being noisy

01:48:47and attracting attention,

01:48:49the burglar will most likely leave.

01:48:51The structure of the verre feuilleté

01:48:53differs from that of ordinary glass.

01:48:55It keeps the glass intact

01:48:57and doesn't break.

01:48:59Le verre feuilleté windows

01:49:01are about 100 times stronger

01:49:03and 5 times more durable

01:49:05than standard windows.

01:49:07What makes this type of glass

01:49:09so special?

01:49:11First of all,

01:49:13it is made up of several layers.

01:49:15There are two layers of glass

01:49:17and, between the two,

01:49:19a vinyl material

01:49:21that keeps the two layers intact.

01:49:23In addition,

01:49:25the second layer

01:49:27absorbs a part of the outside noise.

01:49:29It's supposed to be a glass,

01:49:31isn't it?

01:49:33Maybe that's the first question

01:49:35that comes to your mind.

01:49:37And no,

01:49:39le verre feuilleté is transparent

01:49:41like other types of glass.

01:49:43It allows you to enjoy a clear view

01:49:45like crystal while staying safe.

01:49:47Finally, we would all like,

01:49:49but alas, it is quite expensive

01:49:51to get these anti-crack glasses

01:49:53However, it is possible

01:49:55to call professionals

01:49:57to install a stratified film

01:49:59on your standard windows

01:50:01or even to buy a safety film.

01:50:03They all work

01:50:05according to the same principle,

01:50:07but it is obvious that such alternatives

01:50:09cannot be as strong

01:50:11as the glass itself.

01:50:13The following tips

01:50:15come from a former burglar,

01:50:17Michael Fraser.

01:50:19Today, he gives tips

01:50:21Stop putting a sticker

01:50:23Attention bad dog

01:50:25if you have one.

01:50:27If a dog can walk in your house

01:50:29without triggering any alarm,

01:50:31it is obvious that a human being

01:50:33can too.

01:50:35This is how burglars think.

01:50:37In addition, many dogs

01:50:39can quickly become friendly

01:50:41unless they have been specially trained

01:50:43to catch intruders.

01:50:45If it is an ordinary dog,

01:50:47you can easily lock it in a room

01:50:49This is a standard procedure

01:50:51to attract potential buyers,

01:50:53but also bad dogs.

01:50:55With these pictures you took

01:50:57innocently, burglars can set up

01:50:59floor plans.

01:51:01Even worse, when there are

01:51:03virtual visits,

01:51:05they can easily locate

01:51:07the entrances and exits

01:51:09of the emergency services

01:51:11and it is the perfect tool

01:51:13to plan the burglary

01:51:15of a house.

01:51:17This security system

01:51:19would be almost three times

01:51:21more vulnerable to burglaries

01:51:23and there are many systems

01:51:25to choose from.

01:51:27Some are expensive,

01:51:29but fortunately there are

01:51:31more affordable options.

01:51:33It is not even necessary

01:51:35to call professionals.

01:51:37This online security system

01:51:39is a perfect example

01:51:41of an economic gadget

01:51:43with useful features.

01:51:45You will not have to worry

01:51:47about screws, tools or drilling.

01:51:49It also has a quick emergency

01:51:51service that can alert

01:51:53authorities if you wish.

01:51:55And as it is easy to install,

01:51:57it is also perfect for short-term residents.

01:51:59Do you remember that I said

01:52:01that if a dog could walk

01:52:03in your house,

01:52:05a burglar could too?

01:52:07Well, technology is not

01:52:09the ally of burglars.

01:52:11These types of devices

01:52:13can be placed in windows, doors

01:52:15and corners while being adjusted

01:52:17to avoid false alarms

01:52:19caused by pets.

01:52:21Another device that can

01:52:23add a level of protection,

01:52:25especially in shared homes

01:52:27like dorms, is a door lock

01:52:29with alarm.

01:52:31These devices are very compact

01:52:33so you can put them in your luggage

01:52:35and even take them on holiday.

01:52:37You can also use it in your daily life.

01:52:39A lock can be used on any door

01:52:41that opens to the inside.

01:52:43It works like a regular lock

01:52:45while keeping the door closed.

01:52:47How does it work?

01:52:49When the alarm is triggered,

01:52:51it prevents the intruder from entering

01:52:53and makes a loud noise.

01:52:55It can wake the owner

01:52:57as well as the neighbors.

01:52:59This product is also easy to find online.

01:53:01Michael, the repentant burglar,

01:53:03also recommends thinking like a thief.

01:53:05Ask yourself the question,

01:53:07how could I get in here?

01:53:09Do you have a window

01:53:11that can be easily opened?

01:53:13Oh wait,

01:53:15is your laptop on the desk

01:53:17visible from the street?

01:53:19And speaking of the street,

01:53:21if you buy a new electronic device

01:53:23like a TV or a computer,

01:53:25don't leave the empty boxes

01:53:27near the bin.

01:53:29It's a real invitation for the thieves

01:53:31who will immediately know

01:53:33that you have expensive and new

01:53:35electronic devices inside.

01:53:37The windows on the ground floor

01:53:39are unfortunately entry points

01:53:41in 23% of burglaries.

01:53:43To counter this,

01:53:45it is possible to buy

01:53:47a wireless alarm kit.

01:53:49As far as the entrance door is concerned,

01:53:51installing a double-cylinder

01:53:53sleeping pen can be a solution.

01:53:55Similarly, a motion detection

01:53:57lighting can also do the trick.

01:53:59Are there blind spots at home?

01:54:01Opt for a night vision

01:54:03security camera.

01:54:05If you want to see what's going on

01:54:07inside your house rather than outside,

01:54:09you can also get one of these

01:54:11high-tech security gadgets.

01:54:13The Orbi robotized mobile sphere

01:54:15looks like a ball in which

01:54:17a camera is inserted.

01:54:19Its vision is not limited.

01:54:21Imagine that you are at the office

01:54:23and you want to play with your dog.

01:54:25Your furry companion can run

01:54:27around the house while you are

01:54:29absent and you control the device.

01:54:31Oh yes, that's right,

01:54:33you can also play with your pet

01:54:35for another video.

01:54:37And here is a shocking revelation

01:54:39about closures.

01:54:41Most people think they just need

01:54:43to protect their property.

01:54:45Sorry to tell you,

01:54:47but even the highest and

01:54:49strongest closures are not

01:54:51as safe as you might think.

01:54:53The number one rule of a thief

01:54:55is not to get caught.

01:54:57And if he enters a closed house

01:54:59at night, he is perfectly covered.

01:55:01Closures must be difficult

01:55:03to climb.

01:55:05One of their main reasons

01:55:07is precisely privacy.

01:55:09But metal closures,

01:55:11wire and stake,

01:55:13are much more difficult

01:55:15to climb for intruders.

01:55:17Applying the tips in this list

01:55:19can help you discourage

01:55:21and prevent burglaries

01:55:23and ensure your own safety.

01:55:25Have you ever experienced

01:55:27such incidents?

01:55:30There are more and more burglaries

01:55:32in your neighborhood.

01:55:34And you wonder if your house

01:55:36could be targeted.

01:55:38You don't have a surveillance system.

01:55:40So tonight, you put aluminum foil

01:55:42on the handle of your front door

01:55:44before going to bed.

01:55:46This will allow you to know

01:55:48if someone tried to enter

01:55:50your house while you were sleeping.

01:55:52You wake up the next morning

01:55:54and you see that the aluminum foil

01:55:56is slightly torn.

01:55:58Someone has passed through here

01:56:00and he is certain that he will come back.

01:56:02Another option is to put a cup

01:56:04on the handle of your door.

01:56:06When the handle turns,

01:56:08the cup will fall.

01:56:10The noise will wake you up

01:56:12and probably dissuade the intruder.

01:56:14You must be careful

01:56:16if a worker has recently

01:56:18passed by your house.

01:56:20He told you that he was working

01:56:22not far away and asked you

01:56:24to use your toilets.

01:56:26You may have been impolite at the time

01:56:28but in reality, you did the right thing.

01:56:30About 60% of burglaries

01:56:32in the United States are caused

01:56:34by a person you know

01:56:36or have already met.

01:56:38This worker, going to the toilet,

01:56:40could have adjusted something

01:56:42in your house to facilitate his return.

01:56:44He may have wanted to take a look

01:56:46at your security system,

01:56:48check the different

01:56:50possibilities of entering

01:56:52or know if you keep valuables

01:56:55Today, you are finally going

01:56:57on vacation.

01:56:59You must prepare your house

01:57:01so that it is not the target

01:57:03of burglars.

01:57:05A full mailbox will immediately

01:57:07notify a potential thief.

01:57:09Ask your neighbor to empty it

01:57:11during your absence.

01:57:13A well-kept property

01:57:15is a sign that its owners

01:57:17are still there.

01:57:19Your lawn is still stretched

01:57:21and cut.

01:57:24It is winter.

01:57:26The snow around your house

01:57:28could inform burglars

01:57:30that you are not at home.

01:57:32Asking a neighbor

01:57:34to make footsteps

01:57:36in your path

01:57:38could dissuade

01:57:40malicious people.

01:57:42Some types of hedge

01:57:44are very useful

01:57:46to prevent people

01:57:48from entering your home.

01:57:50Pointed-leaf shrubs

01:57:52will immediately

01:57:54make a cry of pain.

01:57:56Your neighbors

01:57:58will immediately know

01:58:00that there is an intruder.

01:58:02Spruces will also hang

01:58:04pieces of fabric

01:58:06that can later

01:58:08serve as evidence.

01:58:10In preparation for your

01:58:12trip last week,

01:58:14you opened and closed

01:58:16your curtains

01:58:18at different times

01:58:20to keep an eye on your property.

01:58:22Burglars always take the time

01:58:24to observe the houses

01:58:26of certain neighborhoods

01:58:28before spotting

01:58:30vulnerable dwellings.

01:58:32And above all,

01:58:34they hate vigilant neighbors.

01:58:36They get informed

01:58:38before acting

01:58:40and avoid areas

01:58:42where patrols are carried out.

01:58:44Why not organize

01:58:46one with your neighbors?

01:58:48Put them in a closet

01:58:50or in a closed room.

01:58:52Don't be afraid

01:58:54for your TV.

01:58:56It is too bulky

01:58:58and stealing it is more difficult.

01:59:00Criminals are more interested

01:59:02in your iPad

01:59:04and your game console.

01:59:06Put your jewelry

01:59:08and other small valuables

01:59:10in boxes

01:59:12and hide them

01:59:14in a secret place.

01:59:16Burglars have recognized

01:59:18never to enter

01:59:20because toys have little value.

01:59:22Take pictures

01:59:24of all the serial numbers

01:59:26of your electronic devices

01:59:28and make an inventory

01:59:30to ensure them.

01:59:3295% of thefts

01:59:34are done by force.

01:59:36You would do well

01:59:38to consolidate your windows

01:59:40and doors.

01:59:42You can make the task

01:59:44easier.

01:59:46Put them in your garage.

01:59:48They could help thieves

01:59:50to access the highest entrances

01:59:52and air conditioners.

01:59:54They often pass through there

01:59:56because you can't reinforce them

01:59:58and they are easy to tear

02:00:00to enter your home.

02:00:02Don't make it easier

02:00:04by giving them a ladder.

02:00:06Burglars can smash

02:00:08a fragile door in a minute.

02:00:10A metal frame

02:00:12and a wooden frame

02:00:14are enough to resist

02:00:16a kick.

02:00:18After a while,

02:00:20they will let go.

02:00:22The lock is always a weak point

02:00:24because it can be easily

02:00:26hacked by an experienced thief.

02:00:28Thanks to a simple lock,

02:00:30you can be sure

02:00:32that no one will pass through.

02:00:34The hinges of your garage door

02:00:36rotate outward,

02:00:38which makes it vulnerable.

02:00:40Simply replace the pins

02:00:42with secured pins

02:00:44that cannot be removed.

02:00:46Finally,

02:00:48the rotating doors

02:00:50are one of the first access points

02:00:52for burglars.

02:00:54They don't have a lock

02:00:56and can be easily opened.

02:00:58Attach a lock to the lock

02:01:00that connects it to its slide.

02:01:02It won't move.

02:01:04If your garage door

02:01:06doesn't allow you to do it,

02:01:08replace the metal frame

02:01:10and place a lock.

02:01:12Thieves are afraid of dogs.

02:01:14They watch and guard

02:01:16your house.

02:01:18According to a study,

02:01:20most burglars

02:01:22didn't have dogs.

02:01:24Remember that beatings

02:01:26can sometimes wake up

02:01:28an entire neighborhood.

02:01:30But you don't have a dog at home.

02:01:32You just need to put a trowel

02:01:34in front of your door

02:01:36Burglars have adapted

02:01:38to modern technology.

02:01:404 criminals out of 5

02:01:42use social networks

02:01:44like Facebook, Twitter

02:01:46and Google Maps

02:01:48to choose their target.

02:01:50If you share a photo

02:01:52where the keys of your house

02:01:54are shown,

02:01:56a burglar can zoom in

02:01:58and take the exact measurements

02:02:00to create a double.

02:02:02Make sure your wireless network

02:02:04is not only interested

02:02:06in the objects you own.

02:02:08Your passwords and access codes

02:02:10are vulnerable with a

02:02:12poorly secured network.

02:02:14And beware of surveillance software

02:02:16and other harmful viruses.

02:02:18You can also

02:02:20completely block the view

02:02:22of your house on Google Maps.

02:02:24Type the address of your house,

02:02:26look for your residence

02:02:28in the image,

02:02:30press Option

02:02:33A page with an image

02:02:35of your house will appear.

02:02:37You can then place a red square

02:02:39to cover your property.

02:02:43Ask for the image to be blurred

02:02:45under the option My House

02:02:47and take your exact address.

02:02:49The processing of your request

02:02:51will take a few days.

02:02:53Don't leave the radio on

02:02:55while you're away.

02:02:57It's useless.

02:02:59When they watch your house,

02:03:01they'll know you're on the radio

02:03:03and television.

02:03:05If they notice that your devices

02:03:07are never off,

02:03:09they'll know they can come in

02:03:11without fear of bumping into someone.

02:03:13A better option to protect you

02:03:15is to create your own audio recording.

02:03:17Ambient sounds will be played

02:03:19irregularly throughout the day,

02:03:21with footsteps,

02:03:23conversations,

02:03:25and a barking dog.

02:03:27Leaving your lights on

02:03:29won't be a good idea.

02:03:31The burglars will notice

02:03:33your house more easily,

02:03:35especially at night.

02:03:37And you'll get a really expensive

02:03:39electricity bill.

02:03:41You're about to go on holiday

02:03:43and you have to take out the trash.

02:03:45If you have big boxes,

02:03:47fold them so they fit in your trash.

02:03:49Hide everything that could indicate

02:03:51that you have valuables at home.

02:03:55One last look,

02:03:57all the doors are locked

02:03:59and the windows are closed.

02:04:01You'll finally be able to enjoy

02:04:03your trip.

02:04:05But while you're having fun

02:04:07in your holiday home,

02:04:09keep photos on your phone

02:04:11until you come back.

02:04:13You'll have time to share them

02:04:15with your friends.

02:04:17If you share your photos

02:04:19while you're away,

02:04:21all these preparations

02:04:23will be useless.

02:04:25With 2.5 million houses

02:04:27burglarized each year

02:04:29in the United States,

02:04:31a home without a security system

02:04:33is 300% more likely

02:04:35to be targeted.

02:04:37Think about

02:04:39installing one around you.

02:04:41It will be very useful.
