Lusi mud volcano 8:46 #volcano #Yellowstone #brightside SUMMARY:
– When supervolcanoes erupt, they blow more than 240 cubic miles of ash, molten rock, and hot gases up into the air.
– The most recent super-eruption took place in New Zealand around 26,500 years ago. That's when a super-volcano beneath the surface of Lake Taupo blew more than 300 cubic miles of ash and pumice into the air. – But the age of super-volcanoes isn't over. The most infamous of them all is probably the one in Yellowstone National Park. – If this monster erupted anywhere as strong as it did 2.1 million years ago, it would spit out more than 600 cubic miles of red-hot stuff! – Anyway, scientists are sure that Yellowstone doesn't present any danger these days.
– New Zealand's Taupo you already know about, Japan's Aira Caldera, California's Long Valley, Indonesia's Toba — any of them can one day entertain us with a super-eruption! – Anyway, what devastates scientists the most is how little they know about super-volcanoes. Because those aren't just some overgrown fire mountains — no, they are way more complicated than that. – Experts are still unsure about the processes that trigger them, especially since super-eruptions don't take place more often than every 50,000 years or so. – One daring project includes making a 6-mile-deep hole that would reach the belly of a super-volcano and pump down cold pressurized water.
– It's supposed to nail two birds with one stone: cool the volcano down and produce green energy! – Even though the idea of drilling a hole in a super-volcano seems to have its own benefits, many physicists, geologists, and even politicians have their doubts.
– In the worst-case scenario, it may even trigger a full-blown volcano eruption! And you already know what the results of such an event can be: from fountains of lava and avalanches of molten rocks to climate changes all over the globe!
– In 2006, the world's largest mud volcano Lusi in Indonesia erupted, sending tons of boiling water, gas, and mud in the air. – Some experts claimed that the reason for the disaster was nearby oil drilling that could provoke the eruption.

Why Dogs Age Faster Than Us
The longest-living person was a woman who made it 122 years and 164 days. Which isn’t bad for a species with an average lifespan of 72 years. There was also a cat that set the record for the feline community by living to 38 years. Yet dogs aren’t so lucky, which means we humans, who’ve dubbed these loveable creatures as our best friends, really feel the sting. A 13-year-old person has their whole life ahead of them, yet a 13-year-old dog is considered a senior at that age! While we humans take up to 18 years to stop growing and developing, a dog is usually full-grown at 18 months! Other videos you might like:

Why dogs don’t live longer 3:53
Small dogs VS. Large dogs 5:42
Circling before lying down 7:56
Rolling around in the grass 8:11 #dogs #pets #brightside SUMMARY:
– Most dogs live on average from 10 to 13 years, depending on the breed, of course.
– For the 1st year of their life, dogs age 15 human years! Then they age about 4 human years with each birthday. – Aristotle believed that elephants lived longer than mice because they contained more liquid. Of course, the moisture thing wasn’t right, but his observations were pretty accurate overall: bigger animals do tend to live longer than smaller ones.
– But let’s consider our parrot friends. They have an average lifespan of 20 to 50 years! – Larger species living longer could simply be a result of where they stand on the food chain. It takes elephants longer to grow because hardly anyone would dare to attack them, right?
– Humans and canines have been friends for thousands of years. DNA suggests that wolves and dogs split around 100,000 years ago. – There’s a theory suggesting that dogs don’t live as long because they’re just so sociable! They live in packs, right? The way it usually goes is when a species lives in groups, they’re more likely to spread illnesses.
– Large species like Saint Bernards and German Shepherds are more prone to hip dysplasia. Siberian Huskies can often develop immune problems. – Also, some breeds are younger than others, and they haven’t had enough time to evolve. The good thing is that our favorite animals are living longer these days than they used to. – Does your dog take a treat or a big cheekful of food from its bowl only to carry into another room to eat? Like a lot of strange things your dog does, it’s ancient instincts controlling their brain.
– And that circling ritualistic thing they do before they lie down? Spinning in circles might happen for several reasons. – What about rolling around in the grass? When they smell something in the grass they can hunt, they’ll use the grass to mask their own scent and sneak up on their prey.

Why Toilets Are Always White
Can we take a moment to stop and appreciate one of the most important inventions ever? No, not your phone, the Internet, or HotPockets. The toilet! The biggest question has to be: Why are they always white? Wouldn’t that encourage stains? Why can’t they be black or some other dark color that would hide any graffiti more discreetly? Well, actually, commodes haven’t always been white…or porcelain! Go back to the Middle Ages. In Europe, commoners had to use chamber pots — yes, for both numbers! But other parts of the world had the sanitary toilet thing down way earlier. The first-ever recorded flushing water closet belonged to King Minos of Crete over 2,800 years ago!

How many toilets are in the White House? 7:58 #toilet #bathroom #brightside SUMMARY:
– Remember learning in school about how dirty the streets were in Europe back then? The chamber pots would have to be emptied, so people just dumped them out their windows into the streets!
– They had no idea about the danger of bacteria and how it spreads to cause illnesses. – In the 1800s, people finally began to understand this better and realized that there was a serious need to improve sanitary conditions. – It turns out that other parts of the world had the sanitary toilet thing down way earlier, but the luxury of a toilet was only for royalty to enjoy. – The first patent for a flushing toilet went to a guy named Alexander Cummings in 1775, and then the real work—and cleanup— began. – The first and simplest reason why toilets are white is because porcelain is white, and 95% of toilets are made from the stuff.
– Currently, the average toilet manufactured today uses about 1.5 gallons per flush.
– Plain white has come to symbolize cleanliness and sterilization. It’s supposed to make us feel clean in the bathroom! – Add up all that time, and the result is that we end up spending 92 DAYS on the toilet in our lifetime!
– A company out of Australia started selling TPc made from 22K gold in 2013. And yes, the price tag is hefty—a jumbo roll will cost you about $1.4 million! – Located in New Delhi, The Sulabh International Museum of Toilets has amazing artifacts and pictures that let you take a walk through the evolution of the toilet, going back 4,500 years! – Colin Furze of the UK built the world’s fastest toilet in May of 2013. It reached a speed of 53 mph, setting a Guinness World Record!
– In September of 2007, Kevin Shelley broke 46 wooden toilet seats over his head in one minute. – The White House is famous for the number of beautiful rooms and fireplaces, but now you’ll know that among those are 35 bathrooms and toilets! – Statistics show that before a child is fully potty-trained and can use the toilet all by themselves, parents will change about 10,000 diapers!

Why Ultra-Long Flights Are Better Than Short Ones
Long-haul flights. You know, those marathon adventures that fly you half-way around the world, are terrifyingly boring, and tire you to no end. But nowadays, long-distance travel is nothing like it was years ago! And the experience of flying 20 hours straight might turn out to be much more enjoyable than you expected! Let's say you need to get from Singapore to New York, which usually takes about 19 hours. Chances are, you'll travel the distance of almost 10,000 miles on a plane that has been designed specifically for flying super-long routes. Travelers have more space between armrests, more head and shoulder room, as well as more legroom. On top of that, the air circulation and lighting in the cabin are adjusted in a way that’s supposed to help passengers deal with jet lag more easily! Other videos you might like:

Benefits of flying long distances 3:02
How to get ready for the ultra-long-haul flight:
– Choose your seat carefully 4:41
– Ask cabin crew the right questions 5:31
– Put on comfortable clothes 6:20
– Stay hydrated 6:46
– You can claim compensation 7:54 #planes #airtravel #brightside Preview photo credit: Interior view of the test aircraft 'MSN002' of Airbus A350XWB on display at the Beijing Capital International Airport in Beijing, China, 2 November 2016: By Zheng shuai – Imaginechina/Associated Press/East News, https://www.eastnews.ru/pictures/picture/id/51326849/i/0/t/0
Animation is created by Bright Side. SUMMARY:
– One of the most exciting features of Airbus A350 is its tail camera! You’ll be so mesmerized by your gorgeous airliner crossing the globe, you probably won't even pay attention to any other in-flight entertainment. – The Dreamliner does everything to make your journey feel like a dream. For example, it has a special system that makes the air in the cabin much more humid. – An LED lighting system makes it easier for you to adjust from daylight to darkness at night, and the air circulates around the cabin every two minutes.
– Long flights are usually more comfortable than short ones, what with all these bigger seats and more space. And it doesn't even matter whether you fly economy or first class. – Almost all long flights have great in-flight entertainment. So, you can occupy your time by watching movies, listening to music, or playing games. – The only alternative to a long-haul flight is to fly for 8 or so hours, jolt awake, sleepily gather your things, and spend several more hours at an unfamiliar airport. – If you know that you’ll need to go to the bathroom pretty often or will feel the need to stretch your legs, choose an aisle seat. Otherwise, you'll have to climb over your dozing neighbors.
– Remember to ask cabin crew the right questions. And the first one should be, "Is the plane full?" Because, if it isn't, you can probably have another, more comfortable seat.
– Every time you fly, it's better to put on comfortable clothes. But on ultra-long-haul flights, it's critical. – It's a good idea to fill your water bottle at the airport before take-off, and keep drinking this water during the flight. – Try to sleep as much as you can on a long-haul flight. It’ll allow you to get to your destination in a reasonably adequate, non-zombie state. – You probably know that you can claim compensation if your flight is delayed, overbooked, or canceled. But what few people are aware of is that the longer the flight is, the bigger the compensation. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

What’s at the Bottom of the Mariana Trench?
If you've ever tried scuba-diving, you know that at some point during the descent, you’ll experience some unpleasant sensations. Your ears might pop, and you're likely to feel some serious pressure. Luckily, it's usually nothing serious if you do everything correctly. But what would happen to you at the bottom of the Mariana Trench? So, if you want to get to the very deepest point of the ocean, you need to travel to the southern part of the Mariana Trench. There, you'll find the Challenger Deep, a small valley at a dizzying depth of 36,037 ft! It's so deep that if you put Mount Everest into the Challenger Deep, there would still be around 1.2 miles between the mountain's peak and the surface. Other videos you might like:

Amazing things about the Mariana Trench 6:52 #MarianaTrench #ocean #brightside SUMMARY:
– As you get deeper, you feel as if some invisible force is squeezing you from all sides, and the pressure is getting stronger. – Usually, people can withstand 3 to 4 atmospheres of pressure without any particular problems. That means that you can submerge to a depth of 130-140 ft and still feel fine.
– During your descent, you notice that it's getting darker. That's because you're leaving the sunlight zone of the ocean and going deeper – to the twilight zone, which starts at a depth of 660 ft. – You reach the mark of 1,090 feet beneath the surface, and that's the deepest a scuba diver has ever reached. – The option will be to give up your diving idea and get inside a special submarine constructed for deep-dives! – It’ll take you about two and a half hours to reach your destination.
– At a depth of 3,280 ft, your journey becomes quite boring and monotonous as you enter the midnight zone. – Outside your submarine, the pressure is simply astonishing: it's more than 1,000 times higher than the standard atmospheric pressure you experience at sea level!
– If your submarine wasn't so sturdy, at the bottom of the Challenger Deep, it’d be instantly flattened to the thickness of an aluminum foil sheet. – The temperature around your submarine is close to freezing – from 34 to 39 degrees F. – The Challenger Deep is the home to more than 200 microorganisms that lead a comfortable life holed up in the cozy mud at the bottom. – Even though the Challenger Deep is the deepest point of the ocean, it's not the closest to the center of the Earth! – The Mariana Trench is one of the oldest sea beds on Earth! Researchers claim that it may be up to 180 million years old!
– At the bottom of the trench, there are hydrothermal vents that emit super-acidic fluids.
– The bottom of the trench is covered with icky grayish-yellow sludge which is almost silky to the touch. It's the remains of everything that ends up at the bottom after being crushed by the water pressure.

The Reason You Were Born
All my life I sought answers. As a kid, I read a book that gave me this idea: everything happens for a reason, and everyone has their own destiny. Since then, I’ve been seeking mine. At first, I was as starry-eyed as any kid: I wanted to have some glorified profession that involved saving lives and being heroic. Then I grew up, and at 15 I realized that there were other ways to help people, and they suited me better. I wanted to help people get a roof over their head. I decided to become one of the greatest architects of our time, give homes to thousands, if not millions of people, build a real estate empire that no one could rival! I could do it because I was born for it. Or… not? Other videos you might like:

My own Butterfly effect 6:00 #touchingstory #movingstory #brightside SUMMARY:
– All my life I sought answers. As a kid, I read a book that gave me this idea: everything happens for a reason, and everyone has their own destiny. – My family wasn’t rich, and my parents couldn’t afford expensive tuition. So I applied for a scholarship and hoped for the better.
– And the miracle happened: I got accepted! And that was the point I realized I’d finally found my destiny. I was to become one of the greatest architects of our time.
– Years passed, and my success never faltered. I was the best student of my year, and I got a job at a respectable company fresh after graduation.
– In another two years, I said my goodbyes and went on to start my own construction company.
– Soon after that I got married, and we had two wonderful kids, son and daughter.
– I went on with my projects, and my company steadily grew. – And after a few more years, we stood among the biggest players on the market.
– I created a charity foundation and several non-profit organizations to help struggling people get new homes. – By the time I grew old, my kids were ready to take the reins.
– Such was my life. I was sure I fulfilled my destiny… until this moment.
– At first, everything seemed to go well enough: my kids continued my work, and the corporation prospered. – Then, they had a falling out, and the crack between them grew so much that they eventually divided the company. – Alone, they couldn’t manage everything, and both their companies plummeted. – I was devastated. I couldn’t believe it was really what happened. Wasn’t it my destiny?
– HE showed me myself, climbing the tree all those decades ago and wrapping my arms around a frightened kitty. That boy of 7 who had been me returned the cat to its owner, she beamed at him, said “thank you” and ran off home.
– “You know what it means. You were right in your childhood: everyone indeed has a purpose, something they were born for. But it’s not the labor of their life, or something larger than life itself".
– All this time I believed in some kind of a bigger purpose for myself. What I didn’t realize was that I was doing what I could do best, and what I wanted to do the most. I was just following my dream.
– There was a woman standing at a window with her back to me. She was looking out at a little boy who was climbing a nearby tree to rescue a cat. When he got down and gave the kitty to its owner, he saw his mother in the window and waved to her. She waved back and turned around — and I saw it was my daughter.
