Let’s say that one morning you decide to take a relaxing stroll through your neighborhood jungle. Okay, you may not live near an actual jungle, but any marshy area with plentiful wildlife should satisfy this particular urge. You’re admiring the natural beauty of your untouched surroundings, and listening to the birds singing overhead when suddenly you find your shoes disappearing in the ground that used to be beneath your feet. Congratulations, you’ve trapped yourself in quicksand. That's what happens to people who decide to experience nature with basically zero planning. Uhhhh. You at least told someone where you were going, right? No? Well, that might have been a good idea. Anyway, the absolute worst thing you can do is panic and try to force yourself free.

Why dry quicksand is much more dangerous 7:36 #quicksand #survivaltips #brightside SUMMARY:
– Struggling will open pockets in the mixture of sand, water and clay that’s slowly working its way up your legs. – Contrary to popular belief, the quicksand probably isn’t deep enough to pull you in over your head, so you don’t have to worry about drowning in the dirt. – The human body is surprisingly buoyant, so as long as you don’t have anything heavy riding on your back, you shouldn’t sink below your waist.
– Assuming you’ve kept your wits about you, your first instinct might be to find something you can grab on to. Doing so would be a good idea but isn’t always an option.
– While that might seem like a terrifyingly terrible idea, remember what we’ve already established: it’s much easier to float in quicksand than in water.
– Unless you have aquaphobia and your usual response to being partially submerged in water is to scream for help and flail about wildly.
– Laying on your back will spread out your surface area, distributing your weight and increasing your buoyancy. At this point, you should begin to slowly and carefully raise your legs out of the quicksand. The emphasis should be on slowly.
– Once your legs and most of your torso are on the surface it’s time to backstroke your way to safety. What you want to do is slowly and carefully paddle your way back to solid ground.
– It’s important to take your time and be patient. While this might not sound like strenuous exercise, believe me when I say it’s no casual weekend swim. – The next step should be trying to get your shoes off. A good strategy is to find a stick and use it like a crowbar to pry your shoes from your feet.
– What you need to do is separate the water from the sediment as much as possible, something that can be achieved by moving the submerged part of your body in small circles.
– Sure, by now you’ll be dirty, cold and probably exhausted, but that was guaranteed the moment you decided to go hiking through a swamp. – Just be glad it was the wet kind of quicksand. Found in deserts, the Australian outback and the inside of grain silos, dry quicksand is much less common but radically more dangerous.
– If you happen to find yourself snared in one of these grainy traps, your only hope is that someone knows you’re in danger. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Titanic Could’ve Been Sunk by a Panicked Crew Member
The story of the Titanic seems to have been studied inside and out, and we know for a fact that the great ship was destroyed by an iceberg. But what if there was another culprit altogether? Only one person knew about this but kept it a secret for decades. And today, at last, we just might find out the truth behind the sinking of the unsinkable liner. More details popped up after long decades: it turned out that the cabinet holding the binoculars was locked, and the key accidentally stayed on shore, so the lookout wasn’t able to notice the iceberg in time. But the real reason why the Titanic eventually hit it could be entirely different. It all started with the statement made by Lady Louise Patten, granddaughter of one of the surviving crew members of the Titanic… Other videos you might like:

– There are lots of facts we know to be true about the Titanic. It was indeed the largest ocean liner of its time, and it sure was believed to be unsinkable for a good reason.

– In 2010, Lady Louise Patten boldly said that one of the most prominent tragedies of the 20th century happened because of a steering error, and that her grandfather had been the only one who knew the truth.
– On the night of the crash, First Officer William Murdoch was on watch. Somehow, he managed to notice the iceberg before the lookouts. – For some reason, though, Robert Hitchins, who was at the wheel, steered the liner in the opposite direction, making it go head-on at the iceberg.
– The ship smashed into the iceberg at full speed, leaving a nasty gash in its right side, which ultimately led to its sinking.

– You're traveling through the jungle all on your own. One morning, you find out that you're almost out of water. You can get more water from one of 4 sources: a juicy cactus, a pond with salty sea water, a clear still lake, or a silty stream. What source of water will you choose to fill your filter water bottle with?
– A truck, a man riding a horse, and a motorcycle are waiting on the road for the green light. Suddenly, the truck driver drops his cell phone on the horn. The loud noise scares the horse, and it bites the motorcyclist's ear. The man unwittingly moves his motorcycle and causes an accident. But which person actually broke the law?
– You’re lost in a forest. It's getting dark, and very soon wild animals will start their hunt. There are 4 roads you can choose from: the North, South, West, and East. Choose your way. – A psycho caught you and let you choose where you’d have to stay on your own for the following three weeks. He gave you three options: a desert full of cacti; a sunny field with flowers, a banana, and a glass of water; and a beach under stormy skies, surrounded by sharp cliffs, and hit by high waves. Where do you have the best chances to survive? – One night, you find yourself stuck in an old spooky castle. You hear someone chasing after you, and you run faster and faster; but suddenly – a dead end! However, as your eyes adjust, you notice three doors in the wall. But behind each door, there are some horrifying creatures. Which door should you open to have a chance to survive?
– Mark and James played in the attic where it was dark and dirty. But when they came down, only Mark's face was covered in dust, while James's face was miraculously clean. However, it was James who went and washed his face. Why? – A treasure hunter got lost in a forest. But after he’d been walking for some time, he noticed a crossroad with a big stone in the middle. There was a note on this stone which read, "4+no5." Can you help the treasure hunter to decipher the code? – You got kidnapped and locked in a stone house. However, there are 4 doors you can escape through. Is there a way to escape?
– One day, John was caught by a maniac and thrown into a 20-ft-deep pit. He looked around and noticed that on the bottom of the pit, there was a 6-ft-long rope, a 4-ft-tall wooden barrel, and a 3-ft-tall metal safe. John himself was 6 ft tall. How could he use these objects to get out of the pit alive?
– Look at the picture. Ten minutes before it was taken, someone from this photo had stolen all the money from the cafe on the beach. However, all these people claim that none of them had visited the cafe in the last 10 minutes. Who’s the thief?
– Matt escaped from prison by digging a long tunnel in the floor of his cell. He’d been crawling through the underground tunnel for 3 hours, when he saw that the main tunnel divided into three smaller ones. But the first one was on fire, and the second tunnel was home to a nest of venomous snakes. The third tunnel was set with explosives. How can Matt escape?

20 Unknown Facts That Might Save Your Life One Day
Most people don’t even think about being in danger. But Anyone can find themselves in a position when a lot is at stake. And it might happen when no one’s around to save the day. Panicking, implementing the wrong order of actions, or underestimating the seriousness of the situation can lead to very bad consequences. And often, it’s due to a lack of knowledge. In this case, you'll have to become your own hero, so learning some basic safety and survival tricks is absolutely crucial. Do you know, for example, why you should never use bleach and cleaning products that contain ammonia at the same time and in the same room? Or why the smell of urine or fish at home, for no apparent reason, should set off alarm bells in your head? You don't? So here's a list of facts that can help you act rationally in a critical situation. Other videos you might like:

Dealing with quicksand 7:48 #survivaltips #safety #brightside SUMMARY:
– Never use bleach and cleaning products that contain ammonia at the same time and in the same room. Their vapors will mix in the air and create a toxic gas called chloramine.
– The smell of urine or fish at home means that the electrical wiring might be melting, which can lead to a fire or even an explosion! – Try not to leave a pan or a deep-fryer unsupervised. But if you did, and your cooking oil caught fire, do NOT attempt to extinguish this fire with water – it’ll only make the flames shoot higher!
– A simple spare tire can save your life. While burning, it will produce thick black smoke visible from miles away, and chances are, somebody will notice your SOS signal.
– Three to four seconds before lightning strikes, you'll feel a metallic taste in your mouth, and your hair will stand on end. Immediately sit down, bring your heels together, and place your hands on your knees. – If you suspect that some object might be electrified, but you have to check it, touch it with the back of your hand. – Never touch the area around the wound; otherwise, the venom will spread way faster. – If you're calling an emergency service, first of all, give them your address. Only after that should you explain the reason for your call.
– If you get disoriented after diving and can't figure out which way you should swim to get back to the surface, exhale.
– Any scratch or bite received from a wild animal can lead to rabies. Within 10-15 minutes after the accident, you should thoroughly wash the wound and rush to a hospital.
– If you're crossing the road and see a bright sun reflection on the windshield of the oncoming car, chances are the driver won't see you.
– Always plug your nose when you jump into a lake or a pond from high up, feet first. The water could be swarming with dangerous one-celled animals, and the most horrifying among them is something known as the "brain-eating amoeba." – If you find yourself face to face with a tornado, and it seems to be hovering over the same area, it's most likely moving toward you. Choose an upright standing object and focus on it.
– If your car skids, you can regain control of it by steering in the direction of the skid rather than against it. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Magnetic Anomalies Took Down World’s Largest Volcano
Would you have ever guessed that a mere magnet could dethrone the largest volcano on this planet, possibly even in this solar system! That former-king of volcanoes is called Tamu Massif! It sprawls over an area of 120,000 square miles! For comparison, that’s about the size of New Mexico, the 5th largest state in the US. On the long list of famous volcanoes we all know since grade school, why haven’t most people heard of Tamu Massif? The thing is, this sleeping giant hasn’t erupted in a long long time. But just because this volcano has apparently decided to retire, that doesn’t mean nothing’s happening there. Mainly, it’s a massive source of magnetic anomalies… Other videos you might like:

7 Ways to Survive Natural Disasters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCjl6tp8dnw& TIMESTAMPS:
Volcano the size of a state 0:34 🌋
Why haven’t most people heard of it? 1:56
Magnetic anomaly! 2:54 😵
This thing isn’t exactly a volcano… 5:24
Bonus: The undersea volcano that created the island of Bermuda 7:25 #volcanoes #anomaly #brightside SUMMARY:
– Its record-breaking size results partly from its location, as the volcano sits at the intersection of 3 underwater fault lines. – The molten layers beneath the planet’s crust are rich in metals like iron, nickel, and cobalt. All of those are known for their magnetic properties. So when you get a whole bunch of them, you’re bound to produce a magnetic anomaly! – Magma is a sort of gooey hot semi-liquid beneath or within the Earth’s crust. Yep, it’s under your feet right now! Since it’s less dense than solid rock, it naturally flows upward, sometimes finding an exit through a volcano.
– A volcano as big as Tamu Massif is going to have some outstanding eruptions, especially when it’s in a geological hotspot like the Ring of Fire.
– The Earth’s magnetic field goes through natural cycles over the course of several million years. You can imagine our planet like a giant magnet.
– When a volcano erupts, the expelled lava carries with it the magnetic charge it had when it was part of the earth’s mantle. – Shield volcanoes form when magma oozes out, piles up on itself, and cools over time. – But that’s not the case with Tamu Massif. It has “stripes” of magnetic anomalies that point to it popping up a different way. – Tamu Massif’s striped magnetic anomalies point to gradual seafloor spreading over a couple million years, not volcanic formation from hardened lava.
– While bulges in the earth’s crust exist all over, this is the only known example with a massive volcanic system sitting on top!
– Then again, there are plenty of other volcanoes that are just as unique and puzzling. Heading over to the Atlantic, geologists recently found something very exciting just off the shores of Bermuda.
– For many years, geologists assumed that Bermuda had formed over a volcanic hotspot, just like Hawaii
– They discovered that the island formed due to unusual activity in what geologists call the Transition Zone. It’s a region of the Earth’s Mantle about 250 miles below sea level. – No one knew that volcanoes could come about this way. Now that we do know they can, scientists are scrambling to find more examples of this strange phenomenon.

More Magnetic Anomalies Took Down World’s Largest Volcano Videos
Amazing Secrets of Two Lesser Known Volcanoes
Would you have ever guessed that a mere magnet could dethrone the largest volcano on this planet, possibly even in this solar system! That former-king of volcanoes is called Tamu Massif! It sprawls over an area of 120,000 square miles! For comparison, that’s about the size of New Mexico, the 5th largest state in the US. On the long list of famous volcanoes we all know since grade school, why haven’t most people heard of Tamu Massif? The thing is, this sleeping giant hasn’t erupted in a long long time. But just because this volcano has apparently decided to retire, that doesn’t mean nothing’s happening there. Mainly, it’s a massive source of magnetic anomalies… Other videos you might like:

This thing isn’t exactly a volcano… 5:24
Bonus: The undersea volcano that created the island of Bermuda 7:25 #volcanoes #anomaly #brightside SUMMARY:
– Its record-breaking size results partly from its location, as the volcano sits at the intersection of 3 underwater fault lines. – The molten layers beneath the planet’s crust are rich in metals like iron, nickel, and cobalt. All of those are known for their magnetic properties. So when you get a whole bunch of them, you’re bound to produce a magnetic anomaly! – Magma is a sort of gooey hot semi-liquid beneath or within the Earth’s crust. Yep, it’s under your feet right now! Since it’s less dense than solid rock, it naturally flows upward, sometimes finding an exit through a volcano.
