Spotted A Rainbow Cloud From My Balcony. Not As Beautiful As Aurora But Pretty Rare To See Such Phenomena In India
This Is What Sunset Looks Like From Space
Even in times of scientific and technological advancements, our beautiful planet remains full of mysteries. From the incredible bismuth crystal that looks like it came from some sort of sci-fi film to the enchanting glowing forest in Japan with its luminescent mushrooms scattered along the forest floor, there are so many exquisite finds on Earth. They make us question how much about the place we inhabit we don’t really know.
Some of the most standout mysteries that have been captivating the imagination of many throughout the years include Stonehenge in Wiltshire, England. The structure consists of a ring of standing stones, with each stone standing approximately thirteen feet high, seven feet wide and weighing 25 tons. It’s believed to have been built about 5000 years ago, but scholars still do not agree on what its purpose could have been.
Another mysterious object is the stone spheres found in Costa Rica, located on the Diquis Delta and on Isla del Cano. There are over three hundred petro spheres scattered throughout the country that are still considered a great, unsolved archaeological mystery. The heaviest of them weighs many tons, and they’re believed to be made of granodiorite.

Sendai Daikannon, One Of The Tallest Statues In The World
I am fascinated by the optical effect of the design. The statue is not at full body length, it's around 3/4, missing the bottom 1/4. This makes the brain believe that the statue goes lower (like if the legs of the statue extended down), therefore it's perceived longer than it actually is. How cool!

The UK Is Full Of Charming Crinkle Crankle Garden Walls
In England you sometimes see these "wavy" brick fences. And curious as it may seem, this shape uses fewer bricks than a straight wall. A straight wall needs at least two layers of bricks to make it sturdy, but the wavy wall is fine thanks to the arch support provided by the waves.

This Device Is Used To Measure Lengths On Maps. Simply Roll It Along Streets You Want To Use And It Tells You The Distance
My grandad worked for British Ordnance Survey in the 1950s and 60s, he went out, measured the landscape and then hand drew maps. When he died, we cleared out his home studio and I found at least 6 of these in various draws, boxes etc. I remember sitting with him as a child running them over maps to see where we were in relation to landmarks etc. I still love looking at maps 30 years after his death as it reminds me of the gentle, kind soul he was.

A Hand Of A Koala
Koalas have human-like fingerprints. They are almost identical, and even under a microscope, it is hard to distinguish the difference between theirs and those of humans.
This Apple's Flesh Is The Same Colour As It’s Skin
I made cider from apples like this. It came out bright pink and checked in at a hefty 8.5% abv. We named it “Prider”, put it in a rainbow box and served it up during Pride Week about 6 years ago. 60 pints sold out in about an hour! 🙂
414-Pound Gorilla On The Exam Table
There might not actually be anything wrong with it. Zoos do this with most animals for just regular medical checkups and dental work. Unfortunately you can't ask wild animals to "open wide" for the dentist - not if you want the dentist to keep all their fingers. ;)
Load More Replies...I was reading this while my partner was sleeping, I had moved down a few posts when he woke up and said "I have just had this really weird dream I was working back in theatres and we were trying to treat this huge female gorilla" 😳
Wonder what it is dreaming of under the effects of the anesthesia.
Gorillas are up to 10 times stronger than humans ... a 30 pound baby is already stronger than a full grown man.
Yea right ! I had my gall bladder removed recently !. Every one of those people, including the custodian, sent me a bill. My initial ER visit cost me thousands . Apparently that is the rule. If they say hello, how do you feel., they can send you a bill for $100 s of dollars. I never knew this. Medical Billing systems are way out of control ! Greed & Averase ! SOBs.
We're 3 times weaker than chimps, so a gorilla could definitely obliterate us. We're all just hairless, lanky apes working our silly little 9-5 jobs.
Load More Replies...If he were to wake up all sudden, well hes kicking everyones ass in that room and doesnt matter if there is 30 ppl they all are getting a severe beating.
Amazingly, this is the first photo I have seen where the size of a full grown male gorilla is on display. Imagine if he wakes up with a hangover.
We're closest to chimpanzees, and they're still about 3x stronger than us.

That one nurse who stands on the side ready to jump out of the window 👉👈
That one nurse who stands at the side ready to jump out of the window and lock all the others in the room if the gorilla wakes up 👉👈
her expression shows that she's really "enjoying" the tube in her mouth.
Wow 😍 This Perspective Makes It Look Like King Kong ! Huge Beautiful Specimen 😍 ❤
This doesn't necessarily mean that it's sick or injured. It might just need an annual exam.
Nurse standing way back by cabinet ready to be first out if he wakes up .
Omg imagine him coming out of anesthesia before he should have for some odd reason. He's huge
Sad to say, I just watched a TV program about a person that weighed more than that!
Hope they gave him plenty of anesthesia…….wouldn’t want him waking in the middle of a procedure!
Oh Man! Look at all those ladies doing something I could never do. I'm a big fan of nurses ever since I was diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Hay guys, it has one eye open. I do like the way you put a privacy cover over the bottom half.
I saw this on a zoo vets tv program. They do ever test they can think of while the gorilla is asleep. Not many chances to that stuff.
Wow, didn't realise how huge they are. Hope all is well with the patient.
As a vet tech I immediately think of how important it is to maintain good anesthetic control.... The whole time
He’s getting better health care than poor Americans. Be happy for him.

I kNow something THAT SHOULD BE ON THIS LIST! THE BACK SIDE OF WATER!
I thought you could only see the backside of water if you took the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland.
Load More Replies...I just love looking at and learning new facts! I’m of the opinion if we just look…..we could learn something new everyday!
Whoever who had the mindset to put this together is brilliant! Everything was beautiful and awe inspiring! I could not stop looking at it! There was so much stuff that I had never seen.... it just blew my mind! I can't thank you enough!!
A crystal out on my front porch sent a rainbow of color across to the far side of my living room to my hour glass.. Only lasted a minute. IMG_202310...9527e7.jpg
The wavy walls are also used for planting sensitive fruit trees. The waveform protects the plants from the wind and the masonry stores the heat of the sun and gives it off during the night.
This is the new pics lol. The first was sad but this ones happy and I like it,
It was a beautiful and unexpected treat for my eyes to see such beautiful creations of illusion.
Wow im shocked i actually got a fright with the koala and spider hand lol😂
