It's just a tiny crack – not a big deal, right? True – if it wasn't a fracture in a stone wall of a gigantic dam. Unfortunately, the crack goes unnoticed. Under immense pressure, it starts growing. Still, not a big deal – just a sign the material is wearing out. But then, the inevitable happens. An earthquake isn't even that strong. But it becomes the last straw. The dam starts to break apart. Giant waves of water gush toward the first sleeping city on its way… The water from the broken dam floods dozens of towns and cities within 24 hours. Along the way, it sweeps away bridges, wipes off highways, tears pipelines. If you think this catastrophic scenario can only happen in a natural disaster movie, there's some bad news for you. Among 57,000 large dams in the world, there are dozens that can fail at any moment – with no or very little warning. #brightside TIMESTAMPS:

Push-ups are not just a simple but effective exercise when it comes to fighting body fat. They are great for maintaining overall physical fitness. But when we hear the word “push-up”, we usually think of the standard pushup that everybody does. While it tones your shoulders, chest, abs, back, and even glutes, there are other kinds of pushups that focus on different muscles. But don’t do this work out every day, or else you’ll end up with a big chest, toned triceps and shoulders, but scrawny little legs! It’s important to burn some fat before toning your body and get your metabolism running. So in your first week, add more cardio to your routine. Do the easy pushups at first. When you’re ready to move on, increase the reps before doing the advanced exercises. As the weeks progress, add more body-weight exercises and alternate them. And always do some stretches to the muscles you just worked out to release the tension. Good luck! #brightside TIMESTAMPS:

More Solve 11 Riddles to Get the Title of a Real Detective Videos

If you ever read at least the first book about Harry Potter, you probably remember the young wizard accidentally letting a huge snake out of its cage. That was, in fact, boa constrictor — one of the largest snakes in the world. The females of its kind can reach 14 ft in length — that’s about half as long as a famous London red bus! Remember Kaa from The Jungle Book? Well, his prototype is the Indian python. This snake is truly huge, reaching the length of 21 ft! But what about real giants? Have you ever heard about Titanoboa? It's a close relative of a boa but so much bigger! Titanoboa lived 58-61 million years ago and it's the biggest serpent that ever existed. Its fossilized remains were discovered and measured in Colombia in 2009 and it made a sensation at the time. The gigantic snake could grow to the absolutely epic size! #brightside TIMESTAMPS:

More 50 Things That Will Happen in the Next 30 Seconds Videos

Can humans hibernate? Many animals do that, but unfortunately, it doesn’t work with us humans. But what if we could hibernate? So imagine that everyone in the world has decided to skip the next 10 centuries. The entire population of Earth goes down to specially built underground bunkers, and everyone settles into their comfortable beds. The last person awake sets the alarm clock for 1,000 years in the future and closes their eyes. The millions of robot helpers which the people say good night to are going to stick close to their sleeping masters. They’ll monitor their condition and observe what happens to our planet. So the people don’t leave anyone behind to look after our civilization. Their homes and offices and all of the world’s cities are handed over to nature… #brightside TIMESTAMPS:

More What If Everyone Slept for 1000 Years And Then Woke Up Videos

Do you like absurd hypothetical questions? Here's one them. What if giant spiders occupied your city? Picture this: You wake up and switch on the TV. It's yakking in the background while you go on with your morning routine. A news program's on, and you hear the presenter talking about giant spiders, city authorities, and invasion, while you burn your toast. It sounds too sci-fi, and you don't pay it too much attention. They're probably talking about a new action movie. An hour later, you get into your car and switch on the radio. The reception is surprisingly weak, and you can only catch separate words: "…spiders… caution… unprecedented… be careful… at home until…" You start to feel nervous – what danger are they warning about? You're driving through your neighborhood, heading for the downtown. But just as you're about to turn into the main road, your foot hits the brakes while your mind goes blank… #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Some of the comparisons in the world are stunning as we take a closer look at them: a dog might me tinier than a flower. Rafflesia Arnoldii – a flower from Indonesian rainforests could compete in size even with a human. Moreover, a turtle can be larger than a crocodile! The world is full of surprises!
