In August 2018, a UK woman was sailing on the Adriatic Sea. Seems like nothing out of the ordinary, just the perfect summer vacation out on the open water! The Norwegian Star cruise liner was heading to Venice, Italy after departing from Vargarola, Croatia. The woman was on the 7th deck, when, right before midnight, she fell off the back of the ship! It happened about 60 miles off the coast of a city called Pula. Too far away to call for help… As soon as the crew found out about the incident, they launched a major search-and-rescue. They checked onboard CCTV cameras to find out exactly when the fall happened. That way, they could pinpoint the ship’s precise location at that time. The liner also contacted the authorities, and they dispatched a patrol ship, a plane, and 2 rescue boats to look for the woman. Other videos you might like:

What you need to do to survive 7:27 #ships #survivaltips #brightside SUMMARY:
– The search went on all night. The sun came up, and she was still nowhere to be found. But then, at about 9:30 a.m., they saw a figure off in the distance. – When the rescue boat finally got to her, it was clear that the woman was exhausted, cold, and in slight shock.
– They found her about 1 mile from where she’d fallen. The rescue team took her straight to the hospital. – In one of her interviews, she explained that she tried to stay calm and sang throughout the night to keep herself warm. She was also a pretty fit person, so she was able to keep herself afloat.
– The Cruise Lines International Association says that this kind of thing happens only about once for every 1.3 million passengers.
– The emergency crew members are getting together to find where the person fell. They throw life preservers overboard to make sure the individual has a flotation device while they wait for rescue. – If the crew knows about the incident from the get-go and the ship hasn’t covered much distance in that time, then they’ll release the lifeboats at once. – If nobody sees the person fall in and they only notice them missing later on, then the chances of successful rescue are not good – only about 10 to 15%. – If you fall from a considerable height, you risk fracturing bones when hitting the water. – The temperature of the water can be a deciding factor as well. When someone falls into cold waters, they automatically go into a Cold Shock Response.
– When the water’s around 40°F, a person only has 60 minutes before their body just gets too cold. If it’s 50, that time doubles. – Modern cruise ships are the safest they’ve ever been, and they have plenty of ways to keep this from happening in the first place. – Fill your lungs with air and lie on your back with your arms and legs spread out. Move them slowly to stay afloat. This position also helps rescuers spot you more easily.
– Being in the middle of an ocean, you’re prone to sunburn and heatstroke. So, keep your clothes on – they’ll protect you.
– You’ll get thirsty, for sure. But the high concentration of salt in ocean water is toxic to humans. – The rescue team will start looking for you in the spot where you fell. Don’t leave that place! – Easier said than done, but you MUST conserve your energy. Panic does the opposite – it wears you out faster and clouds your thinking.

Why Taxis Are Often Yellow
What comes to your mind when you see the color yellow? One of your top 5 answers is “Taxi”, right? And even though not all taxis are yellow around the world, this color is strongly associated with the industry. But why is that? The first taxis in the U.S. weren’t yellow. In 1907, businessman Harry Allen bought red and green vehicles in France and transported them to New York. However, he had to face some competition, since a lot of other cab-companies popped up. And their owners painted the vehicles in different colors – black, brown, white, checkered – so that each company had a signature color. Other videos you might like:

Animation is created by Bright Side. SUMMARY:
– In 1908, another businessman, Albert Rockwell, opened a taxi company in New York and decided to paint his cabs yellow just because it was his wife's favorite color.
– But it was John Hertz from Chicago who, in 1915, chose this color for his fleet based on science. He wanted his cars to be painted the same color to unify his fleet and to be more attention-grabbing for clients. – In 1967, New York authorities issued restrictions on the color the licensed taxis could be. As you can guess, they chose yellow. – But taxis aren’t only yellow because this color draws attention. It's the optimal color for cabs since it increases their visibility to other drivers on the road, decreasing the chances for accidents.
– New studies have shown that, the most easy-to-spot color for our vision is bright green. “Why are taxis still yellow?”, you’re probably wondering.
– The thing is, using green has one big disadvantage: this color can blend easily with the surrounding trees and grass.
– A Fiaker is a horse-drawn taxi that’s been transporting passengers since 1693, and is still used in the Austrian capital. – With so many canals and so few streets, people in Venice have no other way than to use gondolas and water taxis to get around the city. – Bicitaxi in Mexico City is a three-wheeled bike covered by a bright green plastic frame. There’s only room for a driver and two passengers in the rear seat.
– If you ever plan to visit Spetses Island, there’s one thing you should keep in mind: cars are banned on this Greek island! – Cocotaxi is a tricycle that works with pedals and is surrounded by an opened plastic cover. Some of the cocotaxis are equipped with a tiny motor to help a driver when going uphill. – Extremely popular in Bangkok and other Thai cities, tuk-tuk is for those who don’t want to waste time in traffic jams, and those who are hesitant about using fast motorcycles. – The Victoria harbor in Canada added its own twist to public transport. Why chose a regular taxi if you can commute by water taxi and make your trip an exciting journey?
– In a hurry to get to JFK or Newark Airports from Manhattan island? Then take a helicopter ride! The helicopter service Gotham Air launched in 2015, and allows its clients to save tons of time. – The Shikara taxi is a carved wooden boat that can take you around the lakes in the northern Indian states of Jammu and Kashmir. These boats are made of deodar, a special type of wood that doesn’t rot in water. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

What If You Don’t Give Your Baby a Name
The glorious day has finally come when you can take your new baby home! But you haven’t given the hospital a name for your new bundle of joy yet. How about Barnaby? Or Dumbledore? Or not. Or perhaps you want to understand your baby’s personality better before choosing a name. What’s the worst that could happen? Well, our name is one of the biggest parts of who we are. In some parts of the world, parents don’t choose a name for their baby: children are allowed to choose one for themselves when they’re old enough. Without a name, a child may have an undeveloped sense of self. Not having a name doesn’t just create practical issues; it could create emotional ones too. Other videos you might like:

– You might not be thinking about something like a social security card or number right after you give birth, but that card, and the number on it, are basically your baby’s identity for the government (in the U.S.). – Most parents don’t like to think about their child driving, especially at four days old, but it really is a practical “must” for functioning independently in life. – Your child will need a legitimate bank account as an adult to purchase a house and a car! A name and identity verification will need to be associated with their bank account.
– A passport is another official form of identification that you first need a legal name to get. – Most hospitals will want you to name your baby within hours of delivery. There’s paperwork that the parents must fill out, which includes Baby’s new name. – In the U.S., once your kid turns 18, they’re allowed to exercise their right to vote. But they won’t be able to without a legal name!
– The doctor’s office will have you fill out a bunch of paperwork—and they’ll want paperwork from the hospital, which would include Baby’s birth certificate.
– To enroll them in pre-school or kindergarten, you’ll need a birth certificate; this is one of the most frequently requested documents for schools to verify your child’s identity.
– Adding the name to the birth certificate once you’ve left the hospital can be an expensive and lengthy process. – Your baby needs a name in order to add him or her to your current policy, plus other info. – Calling a child by name and seeing whether they respond could help a parent spot potential early social and developmental issues.

All the Sounds in the Universe from Quietest to Loudest
What's the quietest sound imaginable? Okay, nobody can answer this question cause the loudness (or quietness of this sound) is nearly immeasurable. It's the sound of air molecules moving around us. And they move all the time, vibrating, and therefore technically making a sound. But what about something a bit louder? The sound of the quietest room in the world is around -20dB, which means that it’s 20dB below the hearing threshold of our ears. This room isn’t just quiet; it’s basically swallowing any sound it encounters. This room is called the Microsoft chamber and is found in Redmond, Washington. Interested? Then how about a unique excursion into the world of sounds? Other videos you might like:

– The sound of the quietest room in the world is around -20dB, which means that it’s 20dB below the hearing threshold of our ears. This room isn’t just quiet; it’s basically swallowing any sound it encounters. – What would be the quietest sound that we could actually hear? This is the sound of you calmly breathing, and your heart beating. At just 10 dB, we won’t ever notice it in our everyday life. – A change of 50 dB may seem drastic, but this level is a real comfort zone for our ears. Turn the volume up another 50 dB, and you’ll run from the source of the noise as fast as you can! – The key definition of a sound’s loudness is in its pitch and intensity. We’re naturally programmed to hear high pitched sounds as if they were louder than others.
– We also don’t perceive intensity as it actually is. If you raise the intensity of any sound, it won’t make any difference to your ear until a certain point.
– If the source of the sound is multiplied by 10, it’ll sound only twice as loud to our ears. They don’t detect minor changes in volume; this is the reason why it’s easier for us to measure sound in decibels, which is the same as 10 bels. – At 100 dB, the intensity won’t matter, whether it’s a trombone, an elephant trumpeting, or a helicopter –they’d all sound equally loud because we’re getting closer to our limit. – But there are a lot of sounds that lie in that dangerous territory that we can explore. For example, in the animal world, there’s no species louder than a sperm whale.
– Another underwater animal that can literally stun with the sound it makes is the tiger-pistol-shrimp. Yep, from one of the biggest animals in the history of our planet to one of the smallest.
– Still, there are even greater powers in our universe than this one. There was a sound detected that’s as powerful as 100 million supernova explosions.
– Normally it’s quite hard to tell how loud objects in space are, because in the vacuum of cosmos, there might only be very thin gas that can’t transfer soundwaves. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

What the Smallest Things in the World Look Like
Did you know there are more living things on and inside your body alone than on the entire Earth? And the world is full of this micro-stuff! You can even see some bacteria with your own eyes. The largest bacterium in the world lives in the coastal waters of Namibia. Its length is 3/4 mm, and it’s larger than, say, a grain of sand or salt! More than half as small is a dust mite — these pests that bug you at night only grow to be around 1/3 mm. By the way, remember those amoebas from your biology classes? They’re the same size as dust mites. A single strand of human hair is just 1/10 mm thick. So wanna know more about how huge our planet really is? Then let’s look through the super-powerful microscope! Other videos you might like:

The largest bacterium in the world 0:22
Why clay doesn’t let water through it 1:30
Megavirus 😱 2:12
What's the size of a DNA strand? 3:02
How big is an electron? 4:04
And what about protons and neutrons? 4:26
Strange quarks (Btw, nobody knows if they actually exist) 5:53
Charm quarks 6:34
Top quarks 7:19
Neutrino! 7:55
The bottom of all creation 💥 8:34 #SubatomicParticle #smallestthings #brightside SUMMARY:
– At 10 and 7 micrometers, you’ll find white and red blood cells, respectively. – Two things that are similar in size and you won’t believe it: a clay particle and an E. coli microbe, and they’re both 2 micrometers in diameter.
– Now, a little further we meet the largest virus. It’s called Megavirus, and it’s just 440 nanometers in size. – 200 nanometers is the size of another virus called bacteriophage. If you translate its name from Greek, you’ll find out that it feeds on bacteria.
– Pushing harder, we go down to 3 nanometers, which is the width of a DNA strand. Don’t let its width fool you, though: the length of its strands is simply enormous.
– Electrons haven’t been properly measured because they’re just too small for that. Anyway, though, the classical model of measurement says an electron is about 5 femtometers in size.
– Protons and neutrons, the other two main parts of an atom, are 5 times smaller than electrons!
– A quark is a particle that makes up protons and neutrons in an atom’s core. There are six types of them, and they all have different properties. – A strange quark is about half as small as the up and down quarks, yet it’s 50 times as heavy!
– At 100 zeptometers, we see charm quarks. They’re even more massive than strange ones, but at least their existence is not questioned. – Next up are bottom quarks with the size of just 30 zeptometers. Not a lot can be said about these tiny guys: they have a negative charge and they quickly transform into other, bigger types of quarks. – And finally, the sixth type is top quarks. Their size is 100 yoctometers (yet another part per thousand added), and, against all logic, they’re the most massive of all quarks. – But even that’s not the end of it, and there are particles even smaller than top quarks. One of them is a neutrino, measuring about 1 yoctometer.
– The string theory suggests lots of possibilities, and one of those is that a string is one-dimensional itself, but its vibrations take it to all the other dimensions.
– And the second thing on this level is believed to be quantum foam. It exists according to another theory, and it makes up the whole space-time. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

The largest bacterium in the world 0:22
Why clay doesn’t let water through it 1:30
Megavirus 😱 2:12
What's the size of a DNA strand? 3:02
How big is an electron? 4:04
And what about protons and neutrons? 4:26
Strange quarks (Btw, nobody knows if they actually exist) 5:53
Charm quarks 6:34
Top quarks 7:19
Neutrino! 7:55
The bottom of all creation 💥 8:34 #SubatomicParticle #smallestthings #brightside SUMMARY:
– At 10 and 7 micrometers, you’ll find white and red blood cells, respectively. – Two things that are similar in size and you won’t believe it: a clay particle and an E. coli microbe, and they’re both 2 micrometers in diameter.
– Now, a little further we meet the largest virus. It’s called Megavirus, and it’s just 440 nanometers in size. – 200 nanometers is the size of another virus called bacteriophage. If you translate its name from Greek, you’ll find out that it feeds on bacteria.
– Pushing harder, we go down to 3 nanometers, which is the width of a DNA strand. Don’t let its width fool you, though: the length of its strands is simply enormous.
– Electrons haven’t been properly measured because they’re just too small for that. Anyway, though, the classical model of measurement says an electron is about 5 femtometers in size.
– Protons and neutrons, the other two main parts of an atom, are 5 times smaller than electrons!
– A quark is a particle that makes up protons and neutrons in an atom’s core. There are six types of them, and they all have different properties. – A strange quark is about half as small as the up and down quarks, yet it’s 50 times as heavy!
– At 100 zeptometers, we see charm quarks. They’re even more massive than strange ones, but at least their existence is not questioned. – Next up are bottom quarks with the size of just 30 zeptometers. Not a lot can be said about these tiny guys: they have a negative charge and they quickly transform into other, bigger types of quarks. – And finally, the sixth type is top quarks. Their size is 100 yoctometers (yet another part per thousand added), and, against all logic, they’re the most massive of all quarks. – But even that’s not the end of it, and there are particles even smaller than top quarks. One of them is a neutrino, measuring about 1 yoctometer.
– The string theory suggests lots of possibilities, and one of those is that a string is one-dimensional itself, but its vibrations take it to all the other dimensions.
– And the second thing on this level is believed to be quantum foam. It exists according to another theory, and it makes up the whole space-time. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Why Planes Don’t Fly Over Himalayas
Wouldn't it be amazing to see the tallest mountain on the planet from an airplane window? Just imagine yourself nestled in your seat, sipping on a coffee and admiring that snow covered mountain peak! The only problem is that planes don’t fly over Mount Everest, or the Himalayan range, for that matter. But why? Let's imagine a scheduled commercial flight that decides to fly over the Himalayas. At first, the flight is going smoothly: the plane reaches its usual cruising altitude of 35,000 feet and is traveling at a speed of about 550 miles per hour. Soon, the pilots see a range of tall mountains straight ahead, with one peak standing out among the rest. It's the world-famous Everest – the highest mountain above sea level on the whole planet! The pilots realize they shouldn't have been so careless! Because that's when everything goes awry! Other videos you might like:

The most dangerous airports in the world 😱
– Between high mountains 4:24
– Lightning-fast 45-degree bank turn during the descent 4:53
– There are only 8 pilots in the world who can land here 5:18
– Right on the shore of the ocean 5:41
– When the runway is constantly covered with ice 6:24
– When the main street intersects the runway 7:10
– When a public beach is located right before the runway 7:48 #himalayas #airports #brightside SUMMARY:
– There isn't as much oxygen in your mask as you might think. It usually lasts for no more than 15 to 20 minutes. The pilots must make the plane drop down to 10,000 feet, where the passengers will be able to breathe without using oxygen masks. But… the plane is still flying over the Himalayas, and there’s no way it could drop so low! – One of the reasons planes have such an impressive cruising altitude is that it lets pilots have some "room for error." It means that if something goes wrong, the captain can glide the aircraft while trying to fix the problem.
– Kathmandu can deal with a jet, but this airport has only one runway and doesn't have an instrumental landing system. – Winds moving over mountain ranges at high speeds create so-called "mountain waves" which can turn any ride into a rough one. – The turbulence there is so bad that it's almost impossible for commercial airplanes to fly over that region. – The Lukla Airport in Nepal is one of the world's trickiest. Pilots find it extremely difficult to land there because the airport is nestled between high mountains. – In Toncontin Airport in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, planes must make a lightning-fast 45-degree bank turn during the descent. –
– There are only 8 pilots in the world who are qualified to land at Paro Airport in Bhutan, Himalayan Mountains.
– Landing at the airport on the Portuguese island, Madeira, remains one of the most treacherous feats in aviation, even after its runway was renovated. The thing is that the landing strip of this airport is located right on the shore of the ocean, between steep cliffs. – The runway of Narsarsuaq Airport, in Greenland, is constantly covered with ice.
– There is one feature that sets Gibraltar International Airport apart and makes it totally unique: the main street of that area, Winston Churchill Avenue, intersects the runway! – If you ever go to St. Maarten Island in the Caribbean, you're likely to be completely smitten with its Princess Juliana Airport. It's one of the most famous airports in the world, thanks to a public beach located right before the runway!
