Imagine you’re stuck on the slopes of Mount Everest. There’s no one to help you for frozen miles around, and you can’t move for some reason. Although you’ve sent a distress signal, the night has already fallen, and you’ve lost all hope. But then, out of the cold darkness, a beam of light blinds you. It’s a rescue helicopter, coming for you at last. Despite weirdly popular opinion, this situation is possible. Tricky, granted, but rescue helicopters do fly at night. The myth about night flight operations might have appeared because of one fact: helicopters are really difficult to fly. And that’s a real problem that can preclude a chopper from flying at night. But it depends on many more factors than just poor visibility. Other videos you might like:

The altitude record for a helicopter 0:55
Why choppers are not designed for high-velocity flights 2:10
What makes flying them a risky business:
– Helicopters don’t have an ejection system 3:31
– They have much weaker protection 4:08
– They can’t fly in bad weather 5:07
– Helicopters are hard to control 6:22 #chopper #helicopter #brightside SUMMARY:
– Unlike jet airliners, which fly at heights of about 36,000 ft, choppers rarely climb higher than 15,000 ft.
– No wings for helicopters means that all they could do is rotate those blades faster to keep the height.
– All they need to take off or land is a clear space of a diameter that allows their blades to turn safely.
– They can hover in the air thanks to their construction. This also helps in different kinds of situations: rescuing people, extinguishing fires, deploying troops, or whatnot.
– But despite all their advantages over airplanes, choppers have many potential dangers too, which makes flying them a risky business.
– The pilot has to stay inside the machine no matter what, reducing the chances of survival in case of a crash.
– Neither civil helicopters, nor emergency service ones have any special reinforcement, so they’re basically unprotected in the air.
– When the air is particularly humid and the temperature freezing, ice can appear on the helicopter’s surfaces. It might seem a nuisance, but given the pretty fragile construction of these aircraft, you shouldn’t be surprised that ice may cause control issues or even crashes.
– But even good weather can pose a threat, since there’s such a thing as clear air turbulence, or CAT. It’s an unpredictable condition that occurs when there are no clouds and the aircraft is flying at a higher altitude. – Sometimes rescue ops may take up to an hour, so it’s a real test of endurance and skill for the pilot.
– In a helicopter, an autopilot could only be useful on long-haul flights with minimum obstacles on the way. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Why Planes Stopped Flying Half Full
Airplanes may be a marvel of modern engineering, but unless you're flying first-class it isn't what most people would call glamorous. For many, the biggest problem is how crowded airliners can get. But believe it or not, there was a time when flights rarely left more than half full. How was this possible? It might be hard to believe in a world where you must book your flight months in advance, but there was a time when you could simply drive to the airport on a whim and go almost anywhere you wanted. If you were lucky, you might even get the whole row to yourself! Other videos you might like:

Those halcyon days… 0:30
… and what brought an end to them 3:27
Deliberate overbooking 4:42
The environmental impact 6:54 #planes #aviation #brightside SUMMARY:
– In the 1970s, air travel was strictly controlled by the federal government.
– The only area where airlines had nearly complete autonomy was in how many flights could depart on each route per day.
– With no way of expanding their reach or competing on pricing, airlines needed to find another way to stand out from the crowd. The solution they all came to was accessibility.
– It's hard to make unlimited legroom sound bad, but all that extra space came at a price, and I mean that literally. – The average price of airfare in 1979 was about $600 in today’s money. Compare that to 2015, when the average price was only about three hundred and eighty-five dollars. – It turns out that all these extra flights were cutting into the airline's bottom line, and they were passing that markup on to you.
– Two things brought an end to these halcyon days of ample knee space. The first came in the form of relaxed FAA regulations. – Free from price controls and restricted routes, costs fell as airlines struggled to undercut each other's prices.
– The second significant change was a technological one. In the analog world of the 1970s, there wasn’t a whole lot companies could do to adjust prices on the fly. – Modern airlines have entire departments dedicated to writing the code that goes into determining the price of an individual seat. – Airlines have also taken to adding more seats to each plane and regularly selling more tickets than they have seats.
– The side effect is that sometimes more people show up than expected, and someone ends up getting left behind. – In the year 2000, the United States was home to ten major airlines, a number that has been slowly whittled down to just four by 2017. – While the 70s may have been an excellent time for airline customers, all those extra flights weren't exactly healthy for the environment.

Why Public Toilet Seats Are Shaped Like a U
We all use it every day —the John, the Throne, the Lavatory, the Potty, the Commode, the Latrine, the Privy…the Toilet! No matter what you call it, public restrooms aren’t always the most pleasant experience; the germs, unspoken etiquette…no one likes to talk about it, it’s can be a tender subject, but, Brightsider, today’s your lucky day! You're gonna find out why public toilet seats are shaped like a U (this isn’t what they’re like at home, right?), which stalls are cleaner than others, what exactly the proper Hand-Washing technique is and many other things!

What exactly is the proper Hand-Washing technique? 3:33
What if I’m loyal to my hand sanitizer? 4:20
🙂 Good-to-know tips for public bathroom etiquette 🙃 4:55 #hygiene #etiquette #brightside SUMMARY:
– The reason is for hygiene purposes, to keep that part of the toilet as far from your most sensitive areas as possible, as it could have some unwanted droplets on it. – That little space in between the U-shaped seat may still have dribbles of urine on it, and it will just soak through the cover. – The outside stalls are used less frequently, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re cleaner—just because it looks clean doesn’t mean that it is.
– There are over 3 million bacteria per square inch in that toilet bowl, just to give you some perspective.
– It’s best to leave your drink on your desk or have a friend hold it for you. But these aren’t always an option. If you must put your drink or mug on the sink, put clean paper towels down first.
– Rub the soap on top of your hands and between your fingers. Don’t forget to get under those nails! You should wash for at least twenty seconds. Rinse your hands completely and dry with a clean towel.
– Make sure your hand sanitizer is at least 60% alcohol. Know that hand sanitizers don’t get rid of all types of germs.
– If you’re out and you bump into someone you know in the bathroom, your first instinct might be to shake their hand or touch them with a greeting. Resist the temptation. – Keep the restroom a quiet place. Some of us have to concentrate.
– Experts say that chatting at the sink while washing your hands is a no-no. They say that you should just focus on getting your hands clean and avoid eye contact. – Whenever possible, don’t pick the stall right next to somebody. Put a stall or two between you if the restroom isn’t crowded.
– Say you’re standing in front of a one-person bathroom and you aren’t sure if there’s anyone inside.
– It’s a little-known fact, but many public restrooms are equipped with a fan, a.k.a an exhaust fan. It will circulate the air in the bathroom, in case you aren’t able to leave it smelling fresh as a daisy.

18 House Details in the UK Foreigners Don’t Understand
Great Britain is a country of centuries-old traditions, and some of them might seem strange to foreigners. But the Brits aren’t in a hurry to change something just because the rest of the world does it differently. Did you know, for example, that there are separate faucets for hot and cold water in Britain? And the tap with hot water has to always be installed on the left side when it’s possible to do so. By the way, you won’t find outlets in the bathroom. British safety rules demand that you shouldn’t be able to plug something in an outlet when you’re in the water. Well, that makes sense.

Garbage cans 6:07
Small Yards 6:44
Mail delivery 7:10
Milk doors 7:31
Bonus 7:55 #GreatBritain #UK #brightside SUMMARY:
– To avoid an outbreak of listeriosis, authorities forbade mixing the hot and cold water. – The voltage in Great Britain is higher than in North America, and in order to avoid an electric shock, there are even pull-string light switchers there. They’re totally safe, no matter how damp it is. – Power outlets have an “on” switch, which is good, since you don’t have to unplug the device after charging it; simply turn off the outlet itself. – Washing machines are tucked in the kitchen, because – you guessed it, there are no outlets in the bathroom.
– Switches in Britain are reverse: you need to flip them down to turn the light on and flip them up to turn it off. – Wall-to-wall carpeting can be found anywhere in the house; sometimes in the bathroom too. If you buy or rent a house, this won’t even be mentioned in the ad, there’s not usually another option.
– Windows are opened either out, up, or down, but not inside. It makes sense if you have a small room, but just think about how you’d wash the windows.
– There aren’t often air conditioners in British homes, since the temperature in summer doesn’t usually get too high. – The window tax, introduced in 1696, levied a tax on property owners based on the number of windows they had. – It’s usually very cold in British homes during the cold season. Heating fees are high, and the Brits prefer to wear layers of warm clothes, rather than receive huge bills.
– Another detail that strikes strangers is that water and sewer pipes aren’t underground, but attached right to the front of the house. – Garbage cans stand close to the main entrance, as if they were the owners’ pride. The true reason is far more practical though: this is done for the garbage collectors' convenience. – Some British houses on the main streets of the town are only a dozen feet wide and have a super narrow backyard. But still, they cost much more than houses on side streets. – Front doors have special slots for the mail, and letters and newspapers fall right to the floor of the entry. If there’s no slot, the mail is tucked under the front door. – Old houses also have special tiny doors for milk.

Why Ships Are Red Below the Waterline
When’s the last time you looked at a ship? Picture a cruise ship or container ship in the harbor. Did you happen to notice that the bottom of the hull is always painted red? It’s not like you can see that snazzy paint job under the waterline, so what gives? In early times, ships were mostly made of wood. That's why sailors had to cover their hulls (the part that’s sitting in the water) with copper paint to protect the vessel from wood-eating worms, barnacles, and seaweed. It was the copper that added a red tint to the paint. But what about now? Other videos you might like:

Other fun facts about ships:
– How many containers fall off the ships and get lost in the sea 2:27
– The largest cargo ship 2:46
– No communication with the outside world 3:28
– The speed of a ship 3:48
– How tall are cruise ships? 4:08 – A super-long cruise (Hey, count me in!) 5:23
– How massive cruise ship anchors are 5:46
– Virtual balconies inside the rooms 7:02
– How large cruise ships are 8:02 #ships #cruiseship #brightside SUMMARY:
– Nowadays, you can add special ship-protecting ingredients to any kind or color of paint. But the hulls are still painted red to honor and maintain the old nautical tradition!
– You also might’ve noticed numbers painted vertically on the side of the hull, usually toward the bow. The red background helps those stand out more.
– It doesn't matter how well you protect the hull of your ship with special paint – it’ll never help you completely avoid the harmful growth of barnacles and whatnot. – You might not realize it, but almost 95% of all the world's cargo is transported by ship. – Right at this moment, at least 20 million containers are moving across the world.
– Within one year, the average container ship travels the same distance as going three-quarters of the way to the moon and back. – The largest cargo ship can carry 18,000 containers with a whopping 745 million bananas inside! – Maersk has been the biggest container ship operator in the world since 1996. If you stack up just their containers alone, it would equal 7,530 Eiffel Towers.
– One-third of all ship crews in the world don't have any kind of communication with the outside world when they're out at open sea. – Cruise ships often perform rescue operations. So, don't be surprised if the one you're traveling on stops to save a few fishers in desperate need of help. – Cruise ship cabins are built separately from the ship because, otherwise, there wouldn't be enough space for their construction. – Cruise ship cabin walls are made of metal, and the main reason is fire safety. – During a one-week cruise, a large ship uses 1,800 pounds of coffee, 9,000 pounds of lettuce, 45,000 eggs, and 20,000 ice cream cones! – Although there are doctors and nurses on cruise ships, if you have a dental emergency, no-one will be able to help you out.
– Cruise ships consume a lot of fuel. For example, a large vessel needs about 121,000 gallons of fuel for every day it spends at sea. – The largest cruise ships have more than 2,000 crew members. On top of that, such vessels are incredibly expensive to build: they may cost more than $1 billion.

What If You Run for 24 Hours Without Stopping?
They say that a brisk walk a few times a week can do wonders for your body. Maybe you’ve tried to boost the cardio factor by turning your walks into runs. With some work, you’d be able to build up some serious endurance. But what if you ran for an entire day? In 2015, Camille Herron set a world record by running 50 miles in about 5 and a half hours. Well, humans were built to run from an evolutionary standpoint (think of our ancestors chasing after their food) but does it mean that excessive running is healthy? Other videos you might like:

I Drank Only Water for 20 Days, See What Happened to My Body https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4DwmXK9gEY& TIMESTAMPS:
Hour 1. You start to “feel the burn” in your muscles 0:21
Hour 3. You lose weight 1:08
Hour 5. Your knees are in pain 1:38
Hour 8. You “hit the wall” 2:12
Hour 10. At this point, anyone would really need to stop 2:50
Hour 12. An imbalance in your pH levels 3:26
Hour 15. Are you an experienced runner? If not, don't do that! 4:02
Hour 20. You might be crying 4:34
Hour 24. No benefits 5:10
The coolest runners ever 6:25 #running #whatif #brightside SUMMARY:
– Within the first 30 minutes, you’ll start burning any “bad” fat, since your body uses this and glucose from food for additional energy. While glucose is getting absorbed by your body, you’ll really start to “feel the burn” in your muscles.
– If you’re running for 3 hours, you’re probably training for a marathon. An extremely fit person could complete a marathon in 3 hours (which is about 26 miles.) – If you’re training for a marathon, running 5 hours a day is a reasonable goal! A “fitness runner” could definitely finish a marathon in 5 hours.
– If you ran or worked out for 8 hours a day, you would so-to-speak “hit the wall” if you aren’t getting enough calories and protein from your diet. – Unless you’ve been an experienced marathon runner for years, running 10 hours at a time is definitely excessive. If a non-runner just took off willy-nilly, we probably wouldn’t have enough endurance or muscle mass built up—we’d be very prone to injury. – Abnormal lactic acid amounts in your body can cause an imbalance in your pH levels, which tell you how acidic your blood is. Too much acid in the blood can cause serious problems, including cardiovascular issues.
– A 15 hour run can seriously damage the cardiovascular and skeletal systems. When we burn all of our energy too quickly, it can cause plaque buildup in our arteries, and something called oxidative stress; this is essentially damage to your body’s cells.
– After a long race, experienced runners often feel a wide range of emotions: pure exhaustion down to the soul, tears, happiness, a break in the iron-clad willpower, or a tangled-up mix of emotions.
– If you run for 24 hours, all the benefits of a normal running session—increased bone density, muscle tone, increased lung capacity and endurance, elevated mood — will likely disappear. – Keep in mind, only very experienced runners that are in optimum shape can run in extreme intervals of time like these (such as an Olympian or marathon runner).

Stop Charging Your Phone at Night, Here’s Why
It’s a basic thing – you want your phone fully charged in the morning so it’ll last through the entire day. And even with cutting-edge smartphones that can charge to max capacity in a matter of an hour, there’s no guarantee that you’ll remember to charge it in the morning while you’re in a sleepy daze. Advice to leave your phone unplugged during the night may seem risky. The worst fear here is that your phone will charge down while you sleep and won’t see the dawn of a new day to wake you up like you’re used to. But still, you can’t go against the word of science. Leaving your smartphone on a charger is bad for it. Other videos you might like:

How about gold batteries? 7:15 #phonebattery #charging #brightside SUMMARY:
– Even though lithium-based batteries are rechargeable by nature, and made with this process in mind, they’re highly vulnerable to constant interactions with high voltage electricity, like in the outlets of your house. – There are automatic switches on your phone that’ll stop the charging process the very moment it reaches 100%. But when your phone naturally goes down to 99%, the charging will start all over again. – Good, high-quality chargers have special chips in them that prevent overcharging. So it’s advisable not to skimp on chargers – this way you won’t spend much more money on a new battery or entire smartphone too soon.
– Overall, it’s always advisable to use good quality tech when it comes to something as expensive as smartphones these days. – Heat is bad for batteries. That’s why it’s so harmful to your phone if you leave it in a closed car in the middle of summer.
– You’ve probably heard something about fully depleting the charge of your smartphone and then charging it to the maximum capacity. This is fair for devices from the past decade.
– Any modern lithium-ion battery won’t get lazy like a cadmium based one, so you don’t have to worry about that. – Scientists and engineers promise that soon, we’ll have another kind of lithium-based battery that’ll be able to charge in a matter of minutes and last for more than one day.
– One of their new ideas is to make battery chargers that can produce energy from a Wi-Fi signal.
– And how about charging a phone with a sound? Using piezoelectric principals, tiny nanogenerators will be able to transform the surrounding sound to electric power. –
– Scientists from Japan are in the middle of a decades-long study that will allow replacing lithium ion batteries with sodium.
– Another idea is to use literal sand in batteries. Not quite literal though, as this battery will use silicon – the main component of the sand.
– But for now, the best course of action is to use good quality charging equipment, keep your smartphone out of the heat, and most importantly, keep the charge in it between 30% and 90%. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Real Life VS. Video Games
Who doesn’t love video games? Some play them for hours, others for days, while others cannot even see their life without them. Every year, developers make games better. However, no matter how cool and realistic graphics they have, there are a lot of differences between video games and real life. Is your game character seriously injured? Drink the potion and everything is okay! Just caught a cold in real life – you have to sit at home and drink medications for a whole week. At speed, you get away from the police chase, the cops will never catch you! In life: “Here's a $100 fine for you. Don't break the speed limit anymore.” “Okay, I won’t. Sorry.” One of the saddest thing is that you can go through your favorite mission again. Unfortunately, the best moments of life are only stored in our memory. Other videos you might like:

– In the game, you can go to another city, country, or planet in just a few seconds. In life: you fly on a plane for two hours and then wait for your luggage. Boring.
– You can choose any clothes of any color and style in a second. Out of the game, you're spending half a day to pick trousers to go with your new cap.
– You can build a city, a country, manage the economy, restore order in your civilization in a day. In real world you can’t restore order in your room.
– You drive a sports car, a huge robot, a spaceship. In life: you take an Uber to get home.
– Gain level 100 at a game: you’re cool, invincible, everyone loves you. Reach level 100 in life: you put on a false jaw to crack that apricot.
– In a game you have fun fighting in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. In life, Ride the subway . Sleepy as a zombie. – In virtual reality, you can build a base for your tribe in a minute. In life, you spend half a day fixing a cupboard.
– On your Lamborghini, you reach 186 mph, overtaking all the cars around… Wake up! You fell asleep while spending a third hour in a traffic jam.
– Want to change your hairstyle? Let's see: afro, short haircut, dreadlocks, whatever, just click the button. In a real salon, you wait for an hour and if you don’t like it, wait a couple of months until your hair grows back.
– Wanna be a carpenter? A magician? Alchemist? Racer? Space cowboy? Okay, here’s your task and half an hour of time. – Tired of playing? You can pause the game, drink tea, or sleep. When problems pile up on you for real, a pause will only aggravate the situation.
– Win a fight with the most dangerous villain of the 7 kingdoms. In life: "Hmm, I’d better go around this dark lane."
– In a game with an interesting plot, an event happened that you did not expect. You admire this and thank the developers for the cool story. In life, just a thought of something going wrong annoys you. – Take the powder from the horn of the minotaur, the scales of the mermaid, the feather of the sphinx and the fang of a vampire. Mix it all in one pile and get a potion that makes you invisible. – You are immediately born into excellent physical shape and a beautiful body. In life, you spend years of training in the gym so that six-pack appears on your tummy.
– In a video game, you go through the dungeons, jump over cliffs with lava, fight monsters, defeat the dragon and only then get the princess.
– You can quickly go through the game, but life goes on. And it is much more interesting! Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz
