When people speak about ancient times, they basically envision backward people who just gathered harvest and didn't know science or math to explain the world. But is that association really justified? For example, the Egyptian invented paper and built mind-boggling works of architecture like the Great Pyramids that scientists still can't explain to this day! And did you know the Greeks prized their dogs, and would do anything to protect them? They even invented that spiky dog collar everyone’s wearing these days. Or that the first university was in India almost 3,000 years ago? It had about 10,000 students and 60 different subjects. We decided to open up the curtains of history and found some really interesting facts about ancient people that you won't find in many history books or see in Hollywood movies!

Have you heard about these crazy new discoveries in the animal kingdom? First up, we've got the Pelican Spider—yep, you heard that right—a spider that looks like a pelican! Then there's the glass frog, found chilling in Ecuador, with its see-through skin giving us major cool vibes. But wait, it gets even weirder—imagine stumbling upon a massive glowing life form called a Siphonophore off the coast of Western Australia. Talk about a real-life alien encounter! And let's not forget about the mini muntjack in Myanmar, the Sunda flying lemur (or leaping lemur, if you prefer), and the Treehopper hanging out in the rainforest. Who knows what other bizarre creatures are waiting to be discovered out there! #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook: / brightside Instagram: / brightside.official Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.of...

Imagine lightning's big, bad cousin—gigantic jets. They shoot up from thunderstorms way high into the atmosphere, making for some seriously jaw-dropping sights. Then, there's "Human Torch"; it's when spontaneous combustion happens to people, and let's just say it's not pretty. And if you're feeling adventurous, let's talk about volcanic mudflows and lahars—literal rivers of boiling hot mud and debris that'll sweep you off your feet faster than you can say "volcano alert." Trust me, when Mother Nature starts throwing these curveballs, you'll wanna be prepared—or at least have some popcorn ready for the show!

Way back in the day, our Earth was a total rockstar with its own set of rings, just like Saturn. But those rings didn't last forever. Nope, they got shattered into smithereens by some cosmic smash-up, probably with another celestial object. So, what's left of those once-glorious rings? Well, some scientists think they might've coalesced into the Moon we know and love today. Yeah, the Moon could be Earth's cosmic rebound from the breakup of its rings! But hey, don't feel too bad for Earth; it's still rocking the whole "life-supporting planet" gig like a champ, rings or no rings. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Listen to Bright Side on: Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

You know how we're all dreaming about living on other planets someday? Well, turns out, to make that happen, we need to get creative with some enclosed ecosystems called biospheres. Enter Biosphere 2—a real-life experiment that aimed to create just that, complete with thousands of plants and animals and a handful of brave souls living under one roof. But despite all the high hopes and grand plans, this project hit a few bumps in the road. We're talking unexpected challenges like fluctuating oxygen levels, crop failures, and even tensions among the crew. It's like a real-life sci-fi drama unfolding right before our eyes!

You check into your hotel room and notice a suspicious blinking light on your big TV. Could it be that someone is watching you, or have you just seen too many spy movies? Hidden cameras come in all shapes and sizes. Large ones are easy to spot, but the small ones can be really sneaky and inconspicuous.

It turns out that many of us use garbage bags incorrectly. The secret is that the drawstrings on the sides are meant to be pulled outward, creating a wider opening and making it easier to fill. Most people tug them upward, which narrows the opening and makes it a bit more challenging. It's one of those everyday items with a hidden trick! Just like the arrow on your car's fuel gauge, which points to the side of the car with the gas cap, helping you avoid confusion at the pump.

What would happen if everyone on Earth flushed at the same time? And how does toilet flushing work, by the way? When you flush your toilet, you don’t even give a second thought to what happens to sewage water in the pipe work: how fast it travels, or where it goes. But if you ever do, then you should hope there will never come a day when everyone in the world flushes at the exact same moment. In older buildings, especially outside the US, you can still find this kind of a drawer that opens up on a really huge vertical pipe. That’s where all the waste goes when you and your down and upstairs neighbors flush. May sound gross, but you can even hear the waste water rushing past you when someone above presses the button. So imagine that the whole column just decided to flush at the exact same moment...

These are some of the questions about the ocean I'm gonna answer in this video. The ocean remains largely unexplored and it's time to get to know it better: mysterious phenomena, ocean waves formation and what makes sailors scared. Spoiler: you'll get to know what 'kinetic vampirism' is!

Have you ever wanted to meet someone from a galaxy far, far away to hang out with? Sadly, we haven’t found any evidence of intelligent life beyond Earth, but AI has some answers and ideas. It believes we may not have searched enough. Experts say that we’ve only explored only 4% of the apparent space. One more idea AI suggested is that intelligence is rare.

Robots are everywhere these days, but do they have a chance of taking over the world, or will they be our good friends? Unlike other machines, robots interact with the world. Based on their actions, they are able to adapt and make changes to their surroundings as well as respond to the world around them. They can independently sense, reason, plan, and take action.

Cozy up for a snow globe safety talk! Those whimsical, shake-and-watch wonders might seem innocent, but lurking within their watery wonderlands could be a hidden danger – toxic chemicals. Some older snow globes contain liquid that's not just H2O; it's a mix that could include hazardous substances like antifreeze. So, while you're entranced by the snowy scene inside, it's a good idea to check the fine print and make sure it's not a chemical snowstorm. Consider it a snow globe sleuth mission to keep your holiday decor toxin-free. Because in the world of snow globes, not all that glitters is snow ❄️🔍✨ #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

Everyone's talking about cold shower benefits. 💦 But what are they, really? If you take cold showers, will you lose weight? What happens if you take cold showers for a month? What happens if you take a cold shower after working out? Let's find out, what effect cold showers will have on your body...

Some of the greatest inventions we use every day were created by accident. From the microwave to ice-cream cones, the accidental inventions on this list completely changed our way of life. Sometimes things don’t go according to plan. But every now and then, it’s for the better! American chemist Roy J. Plunkett was doing research for the company Dupont to make fridges safer and invented a strange substance that was non-reactive, non-stick, and resistant to extreme temperatures. We all know it as Teflon. John Pemberton was a pharmacist trying to find a way to get rid of headaches. He came up with a simple recipe consisting of two ingredients: coca leaves and cola nuts combined into a syrup. It was later mixed with soda by accident and became a huge hit. Dr. Spencer Silver, a chemist for 3M Company, was trying to create a super strong adhesive but what he got instead was a “low-tack” yet high-quality adhesive only strong enough to hold up a piece of paper but durable enough to be relocated multiple times without losing its stick. We all know and love it as Post-it notes today. The first antidepressant was discovered in 1957 and was supposed to be a cure for tuberculosis. Wilhelm Roentgen unintentionally put his hand in front of an electron-beam tube back in 1895 and noticed that the radiation passed through solid objects and body parts leaving a shadow. And now we have x-ray imaging!

What would you do if you went on a vacation to another city and suddenly found yourself in another country altogether? Most of us would be confused. Even the most reckless of adventurers would at least raise an eyebrow if told they’d flown for close to half a century.
