Why Planes Don't Fly Straight
You ever been on a long flight, can’t sleep, watched as many movies as you can, and still left with nothing to do? Well, time to watch the flight path! And it begs the question: why’s it always so curved? Simple - the earth is round. If you're still not getting it, we're about to tell you everything! Do you know, for example, why short domestic flights sometimes have zig-zagged routes? Or why you can't use your phone in anything but airplane mode on a flight? Or how planes can take lightning strikes? Oooh, this is one is really interesting! In fact, it’s estimated that for each commercial airplane currently in use, that plane will be hit by lightning at least once per year! So, plane lovers, are you ready to find out something new?

What If You Drank Snake Venom
If you ever found yourself sipping on snake venom, you'd be in for a wild ride! See, snake venom isn't your average beverage—it's packed with toxins designed to incapacitate prey. Instead of giving you superpowers, downing snake venom would likely lead to a pretty rough day. Your body would have to work overtime to neutralize those toxins, potentially causing nausea, vomiting, and even organ damage. Bottom line? Leave the snake's venom where it belongs—in the serpent's fangs—and stick to safer drinks for your next adventure!

What Horror Movie Actors Look Like in Real Life
In real life, the actors who play those monsters look nothing like them. We collected some horror movie actors whose nice appearances were hidden under makeup! We bet you won’t recognize them in real life! Let us take a look at 12 of the most striking transformations actors underwent in horror movies. #horrormovies #actorshorror TIMESTAMPS Pennywise the Dancing Clown — Bill Skarsgård 1:13 Mama — Javier Botet 2:07 Dren — Delphine Chanéac 2:59 Samara — Bonnie Morgan 4:22 Pyramid Head — Roberto Campanella 5:01 The Creeper — Jonathan Breck 6:00 Michelle Crane — Danielle Bisutti 6:54 Jether Polk — Finn Wittrock 7:28 Twisty the Clown — John Carroll Lynch 8:12 Mary Shaw — Judith Roberts 8:53 Zombie — Xan Angelovich 9:19 Bride in Black — Tom Fitzpatrick 9:44 The Joker — Jared Leto 10:23 SUMMARY - The clown from It is famous for his demonic smile and the ability to show you your worst fears. We bet your worst fears look nothing like Bill Skarsgård, a 27-year old handsome actor from Sweden. - People sometimes call Javier Botet the "Special Effects Man" because he can play roles that nobody else can. He played demons in Crimson Peak, The Other Side of the Door, and The Conjuring 2. - As you can see from her elegant looks and name, Delphine Chanéac was born in France. She is not only a talented actress and model but also a writer and a DJ. She was already very popular in her own country for playing in sitcoms, but she became internationally famous after the release of Splice in 2009. - One of the most popular horror movies of all times made you fear your TV set and unexpected phone calls for a while (it is okay to admit it). Samara became a true inspiration for your Halloween costume. - Actor and choreographer Roberto Campanella played not only the role of Pyramid Head but also Colin the Janitor in Silent Hill. He also coordinated the movements of all the creatures and managed the actors who played them. Silent Hill is not the only famous horror movie Campanella played in – his most recent part was the organ playing clown in It. - If you ever met Jonathan Breck in the streets of Houston where he was born, you would hardly tell he could be a monster which hunts for human body parts every twenty-third spring. But it was really him who played the Creeper in Jeepers Creepers. - The Bride in Black in the second chapter of Insidious looks terrifying and super elegant at the same time. Well, at least her younger version does. The role was played by Danielle Bisutti. - Finn Wittrock became popular thanks to the role of Damon Miller in ABC’s soap opera All My Children. In 2014, he started performing in American Horror Story. You can see him in the roles of Jether Polk, Dandy Mott, and Tristan Duffy. This fine looking gentleman received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for his performance. - John Carroll Lynch started his career as a theatre actor, but in the 1990s he changed direction toward the movie industry. He played in such movies as Zodiac, Mozart and the Whale, and Gothika. - Judith Anna Roberts started her career in the David Lynch movie Eraserhead. However, she became truly famous after the role of Mary Shaw in Dead Silence. - What a beautiful young lady! What a charming smile! Said no one ever about the bloodthirsty zombie Xan Angelovich in The Walking Dead. - Tom Fitzpatrick is the actor who played the terrifying monster, who hunted people in the movies Insidious: Chapter 2 and Insidious: Chapter 3. All these transformations are quite impressive, right? Click the like button if you agree.

The 3D printing journey started in the late 1980s, and now this technology is becoming more and more popular. It's possible to 3D print food or a house. Scientists can also create human bio-tissues with the help of 3D printers. In one lab, for instance, they made a human ear from the patient's cellular components.

Scientists have recently discovered the absolute extremes of color on Earth. First up, we've got the "whitest" substance ever created, called "super-white." It's so incredibly bright that it reflects almost all the light that hits it, making it even whiter than freshly fallen snow! But wait, there's more: on the flip side, they've also found the "blackest" material known to humanity, aptly named "super-black." This stuff absorbs an astonishing 99.995% of light, making it darker than the deepest depths of space. And there's just one color your dog will always recognize - check it out!

What If You Could See Different Things from Eac...
I’ve been a big fan of chameleons since childhood. Not because they're so colorful, but because of their eyes. It’s so cool how they can look in different directions at the same time. And I’ve always wondered what if a human had such eyes too. Luckily, I found out soon enough. One famous professor invited me to participate in an experiment. He'd studied the structure of chameleon eyes for many years and found out how to recreate them in a person. Long story short, I agreed to the experiment, and the professor conducted a difficult operation on me. And it was a success! Sort of…

11 Most Terrifying Lakes on Earth
Lakes usually instill a feeling of calm and serenity with their clear water and light breezes. When you imagine a lake, the first thing that probably comes to mind is a calm pool of water where you can swim, sail, or just sit and enjoy the beauty. But are all lakes safe? Well, we don’t think you’ll wanna go anywhere near the lakes we’re gonna tell you about, let alone take a dip in their dangerous waters! Have you ever heard, for example, about the Boiling Lake? Located in Dominica’s Morne Trois Pitons National Park, this lake can reach temperatures of 197°F along the edges. One more really dangerous lake is located in Africa. Weather conditions over it change so rapidly and without any warning that even experienced sailors have no idea when to expect danger...

6 Reasons Why Airplane Food Tastes Different
So, airplane food. The best part of flying, right? Who doesn't like to hear the phrase "Chicken or fish?" But it seems that the question really is "to eat or not to eat?"... Did you know, for example, that your airplane food isn’t exactly super fresh? Typically, your meal gets prepared 10 hours before you take that first bite. Or that all the dishes you eat from during the flight - even plastic ones! - are reusable? Interesting enough, that fact is that airline companies plan all their meals up to a year in advance! They count every single cherry tomato that you'll later find in your salad. Can you imagine that? You've probably heard that famous story when American Airlines managed to save $40,000 after they removed an itsy-bitsy olive from each salad on their flights! Yep, it's all about the right planning.

You are surrounded by someone's designs every day, from the chair you sit on to the book you read. If you haven’t been living under a rock, you’ve heard once or twice about Van Gogh’s story. One designer that was showcased at the gift shop of a “Van Gogh immersive experience”, got inspired by the artist’s story. They designed a set of mugs so that one of you can be the ear and the other the bandage. Let's look at some more original designs.

30 Body Facts That Were a Mystery for You
Our bodies are one of the most complicated machines there is. Like any sophisticated machine, they constantly send information about defects: in this case, the workings of our internal organs and systems. However, we often ignore what our bodies tell us, and this is a big mistake. For example, sometimes your ears can ring! You can also hear some hissing, whistling, buzzing, and even roaring. But all this noise doesn't have an external source. That's why it's known as “phantom sounds.” But why are your ears ringing? Or ever seen little dots traveling in squiggly lines, especially when you're looking at a bright blue sky? These dots are only visible for a second or so and might look like itty-bitty worms. What are they? We found some more truly impressive facts about the human body to tell you. Do you know, for example, what "the Pinocchio Effect" is? Or why you can't swallow and breathe at the same time? Or why your lips look red? These unbelievable facts about our bodies will definitely surprise you!

Speaking of cool, Earth's got this crazy thing called "blue marble syndrome" – it's when astronauts get so mind-blown by our planet's beauty from space they fall head over heels in love with it.
