In the world, there are many dangerous places to travel to, some of which may have caused the deaths of many people. Today, we will share seven places where no one has gone and survived.
7- Naica Crystal Cave
the Naica Crystal Cave, for example. Located nearly 1,000 feet beneath a mountain in Naica, Mexico, this underground cavern iss packed with enormous milky white selenite crystals. The oversized pillars were formed by volcanic minerals in water which crystallized as temperatures in the cave system cooled over thousands of years. Today, they’re big enough for several grown adults to walk on, measuring as long as almost 40 feet and weighing up to 55 tons.
You should consider the risks before visiting the crystals with your selfie stick. The cave is positioned above a magma chamber, meaning the temperature could rise to 113°F and the humidity could be as high as 99%. With such extreme conditions, sweat cannot evaporate from your skin, making it difficult to stay in the cave for more than 10 minutes without potentially risking heatstroke, organ failure, or death.
6- Snake Island
You’d have to be seriously silly to visit Ilha da Queimada Grande, more commonly known as Snake Island. Beneath the treeline, you’ll find a wriggling writhing mass of around 4,000 deadly serpents, just waiting to sink their fangs into unsuspecting sightseers. These snakes are actually a rare kind of pit viper, called the Golden Lancehead, which is known to be one of the deadliest snakes in Latin America. Their venom contains hemotoxins that will melt the flesh they bite, destroying red blood cells and causing death in under an hour these snakes are not messing around.
5- North Sentinel Island
The North Sentinel Island is one of the most dangerous islands on Earth no one knows what is going on inside, as the people on it do not want any company. These people do not let anyone come near the island, and many people have died while trying to enter it.
4- Lake Karachi
Lake Karachi, located in Russia, is known to be the most polluted lake on Earth. Swimming in its water would be deadly, as it would kill a person in less than 30 minutes.. The lake has been filled with concrete and now serves as a permanent dry storage site for nuclear waste. This surface is meant to keep radioactive sediment away from the coast. The only way to legally enter the lake is by passing through a checkpoint.
3- Devil’s Pool
Devil’s Pool, located on the Zambian side of Victoria Falls, is a natural pool formed at the edge of the waterfall. Located near Livingstone Island and almost halfway across the mile wide Victoria Falls, Devil’s Pool is a popular attraction for adventurous tourists. Despite its popularity, swimming in Devil’s Pool is considered the most dangerous activity at Victoria Falls. The currents at the edge of the falls are strong, and visitors must exercise caution to avoid being swept over the edge.
2- Bermuda Triangle
The Bermuda Triangle is known to be one of the most dangerous places on earth. Many theories have been proposed to explain the mysterious disappearances in the Bermuda Triangle, including human error, piracy, and natural disasters. However, none of these theories have been proven, and the Bermuda Triangle remains one of the world’s greatest mysteries.
1- The Elephant’s Foot
If you visited this location, you’d be dead in five minutes. This weird, alien like blob is known as the Elephant’s Foot, and it’s at the very heart of the Chernobyl disaster, one of the worst nuclear accidents in history. The Elephant’s Foot is a lump of a lava like material called corium, which formed from the mix of nuclear fuel and melted metal that oozed out of the reactor after it exploded. As of 2019, the foot is housed in a protective steel structure known as the Chernobyl New Safe Confinement, which took two decades to construct and stands taller than the Statue of Liberty. While you stand outside the steel dome, you’re mostly safe, but if you made your way inside, the consequences would be pretty nasty. After just 30 seconds in front of the Elephant’s Foot, high energy radioactive particles colliding with you would cause nausea and dizziness. After two minutes, your cells would begin to die en masse, and after five minutes, you’d be dead.
