Around the world, there are some foods that are either banned or super controversial. For example, in the United States, you can't buy haggis because it contains sheep lungs, which are banned. Foie gras, made from the liver of force-fed ducks or geese, is banned in places like California due to animal cruelty concerns. In Japan, eating fugu, a type of pufferfish, is a risky delicacy because it's poisonous if not prepared correctly. And in some countries, raw milk is a no-go because it can carry harmful bacteria.

Are you afraid of thunderstorms and lightning? It can penetrate your room and then flies back through the walls. It's a real natural phenomenon called Ball lightning. And you're fortunate to be alive after meeting it. Perhaps that ball lightning occurs as a result of a lightning strike on the ground. Another theory says that glass can generate these balls. But how dangerous are they?

If you're a football fan, the game is exciting to you as it is. But it can get even cooler: during a match between Austria and Denmark, a mysterious hole popped up from nowhere and stopped the game. The players were furious but also confused by this weird deep hole, much like in "Stranger Things." It was deep enough to consume a player's ankle. On top of that, the match was delayed by 90 minutes due to a power outage.

The Moon seems to be really close to Earth, but did you know that every planet in the Solar System, including Jupiter and Saturn, would fit between the Moon and us? "Black Moon" is a rare astronomical event that happens once every 2.5 years. It's an unofficial term that may mean the second new Moon in a month. Another meaning for this term is an event that happens about once every 19 years, when, unlike during a regular new moon, you'll be able to see its dark silhouette. Let's find out more about the "Black Moon," "Blue Moon," and "supermoon."

Our planet is full of places that are so beautiful they don't even seem real! There is a river in Colombia where you can see red, yellow, green, and purple waters flow down it, and the color depends on the water or light conditions. Earthquake Lights can appear before, during, or immediately after an earthquake and last up to 10 minutes. People can see a clear reflection of the sky in the waters of Sasaran Beach, Kuala Lumpur, twice a month. The mountainside of Zhangye National Geopark, in China, is known for its splashes of rainbow in thick straight lines.

Have you ever seen a rainbow at night? Moonbows are as cool as they are rare. They occur when the light gets refracted through water droplets in the air, just like it happens when a normal rainbow forms. But the source of light, in this case, is different. If you want to witness a moonbow, opt for a night when the Moon is at its fullest, for example, during a full Moon phase. But it's not the only rare natural phenomenon you can spot.

Buckle up for some seriously wild weather tales! First off, we're talking the grand champion of rain – a three-year marathon! Can you imagine that non-stop drizzle? But that's not all – ever heard of columnar basalt? It's like nature's rock concert, with these epic hexagonal columns formed by cooling lava. Then, let's chat about fire rainbows – not your typical rainbow situation, these iridescent wonders paint the sky in a dazzling display. And hold up, frost flowers? Picture delicate icy petals blooming on freezing surfaces – it's like Jack Frost's floral masterpiece. Nature sure knows how to pull off some jaw-dropping stunts! ☔🌈🔥❄️ Credits Credit: h_trismegistus / Reddit soupyhands / Reddit EXPLORE_PNW / Reddit photograteful / Reddit skysoleno / Reddit EphemeralOcean / Reddit Unknown author / Reddit SeasonedTimeTraveler / Reddit RealNukemon / Reddit TotherCanvas249 / Reddit LaurenceEdwards / Reddit Antscannabis / Reddit j3ffr33d0m / Reddit Alaric_Darconville / Reddit Alphabet_Qi / Reddit TheArcherofRed / Reddit PoppetFFN / Reddit Animation is created by Bright Side. #brightside ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Listen to Bright Side on: Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/idhttps-podcasts-apple-com-podcast-bright-side/id1554898078 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/brightside/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official/ Tik Tok - https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en Snapchat - https://www.snapchat.com/p/c6a1e38a-bff1-4a40-9731-2c8234ccb19f/1866144599336960 Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me

Did you hear about the amazing sight over Hawaii? Recently, a stunning phenomenon made it look like a copy of the Milky Way appeared in the night sky. Stargazers were treated to an incredible view, with the stars and galaxy so clear it felt like you could reach out and touch them. It was like a mirror image of the Milky Way, right above the islands. If you love stargazing, this was a night you wouldn’t want to miss! #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...

This video discusses an island that was first discovered in 1876 but was later removed from all maps. In 2012, the island reappeared on Google Maps, and researchers were able to find it using echolocation devices. However, they were still unable to find any signs of human activity on the island. Some theories suggest that the island is actually a piece of technology created by space civilizations.

Are you ready to explore some new unique places? Then let's get on a boat: looks like a huge vessel has just sunk in the distance. In a couple of minutes, you see a small piece of land appear right in front of your eyes. It's releasing flames and lava. For the next three years, the small island covered with volcanoes will be slowly emerging from the water. Every day it'll erupt and fill the sky with black ash. What secret is it hiding?

Have you heard about those odd natural phenomena like spinning ice disks and spinning fire whirls? Scientists have finally explained how they happen, and it's fascinating! Spinning ice disks form in slow-moving rivers when a chunk of ice breaks off and starts rotating, creating a perfect circle as it grinds against other ice. Spinning fire whirls pop out during intense wildfires when heat and wind create a vortex, making a swirling column of flames. It's all thanks to a mix of temperature, density differences, and a bit of complex physics—nature's pretty amazing, right? And it has more surprises for you. #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...

Can you imagine an island that appears and disappears to come back again once in 7 years? Back in 1821, a man claimed he stumbled upon an island close to Antarctica and decided to give it a special name: Emerald Island, after his ship. Some people claim they've seen the island with their very own eyes, while others say it's nothing but a myth. Even those who claim to have seen Emerald Island can't seem to agree on what it looks like. So, could it be real, and could it be the only weird island in the world?
