In Green Waters

This photo seems normal, but it is clear that the woman is swimming in a stunning location. In fact, this is not a movie set but the Danakil Depression, a region in Ethiopia with the hottest average temperature on Earth and the lowest point in Africa.

The area boasts a striking landscape with salt lakes, active volcanoes, hot springs, and desert plains. While tourists are drawn to the area’s unique features, it has also gained notoriety for banditry. Nonetheless, it is an important site for the Afar people, who have grazed their livestock there for generations, and the region continues to captivate visitors with its natural beauty and cultural significance.

Run for Your Life

The movie “Jaws” is a thriller that has been highly successful over the years, reigniting people’s fear of sharks. This is not surprising given that these creatures can have up to 3,000 teeth in their lifetime, resulting in many people suffering from a fear of this aquatic predator. Nevertheless, not all sharks pose a threat to humans.

Hammerhead sharks, like the one these people are running away from, belong to the family Sphyrnidae. They are easily identifiable by their distinctive head shape, known as a cephalofoil. Despite their fierce appearance, hammerhead sharks are not a danger to humans, but we doubt these people knew that.

Heart-in-Mouth Experience

Brian Mosby, a fearless adventurer, has attempted the daring feat of walking a tightrope across Rio de Janeiro’s iconic Christ the Redeemer statue, a feat only accomplished by one other person, daredevil Felix Baumgartner.

To ensure the statue’s protection, Baumgartner had to take special precautions, including using a special rope that would not damage the fragile stone. He completed the walk in just four minutes, using a balancing pole to maintain his equilibrium. The Guardian reports that Baumgartner was mentally and physically prepared for this challenging feat, and with a similarly intrepid spirit, Mosby’s walk across the statue symbolizes the bravery and audacity of adventure seekers.
