More 13 Amazing Facts About Start You Forgot to Check Videos

It turns out that our planet has been through some rough times more than once. Ice ages froze it over, followed by cataclysms that overheated it instead. But still, life clings on, and here we are, at the top of our shape. It all happened over a span of millions of years. The Earth would freeze over, then thaw, and then cover with frost again, only to emerge warm and welcoming once more. So, it seems this process is quite natural: it’s a cycle of life on Earth. But scientists have recently noticed that Earth has been warming up too fast. Measures are already being taken to slow down the warming process. But it can’t be stopped altogether. Is it a bad omen for us? Let’s explore! TIMESTAMPS:

More 50 Quick Body Facts for Your Next Conversation Videos

How to tell if you're being followed? And what to do when you think someone's following you? How to get away safely? Imagine you’re walking home after a night out with friends. That’s when you hear footsteps behind you. You turn around to see someone walking toward you… We hope nothing like this ever happens to you, but being prepared for it gives you confidence like nothing else. First of all, if some people are walking by, you can loudly say “Hey!” and pretend they’re your friends. Don’t go to your house or apartment when you’re being followed. If worse comes to worst, don’t stay quiet. But yell “fire” instead of “help.” TIMESTAMPS:
