💡 Check out some awesome Bright Side MERCH (open globally!) here: http://bit.ly/2OJubyA You open your eyes and see lots of white spots and rings. You try to look at them directly but they drift as you move your eyes. Those are called eye floaters. Even though they look as objects in front of your eyes, they're actually inside your eyes. They're mostly harmless but pretty annoying as they cover the view.  Our body is a unique mechanism with so many hidden functions! For example, why do we actually get goosebumps? Or why do we yawn when we see someone else yawning? And why do fingernails grow faster than toenails? Let's get the answers to the most popular questions about our bodies!

You're walking through the forest, enjoying the weather and see a stick underneath your feet. You wanna take it and throw for your dog to play with it but suddenly you realize it's not a stick at all - it's a living being!  A walking stick bug looks exactly like a regular stick but with legs and antennae or twigs attached to a small branch. There're more than 3,000 species of walking stick bugs all over the world and in diverse climates. For example, in Borneo walking stick bugs can reach impressive 21 inches in length. Meanwhile, in North America walking sticks are the smallest: barely grow to a half inch long.

Klerksdorp spheres are small, spherical to disc-shaped objects that were found in 3-billion-year-old deposits in South Africa, and they've sparked a lot of mystery and debate. Pseudoscientists claim they must have been made by intelligent beings because they seem so out of place. Geologists say they're just the result of natural processes. There are other mysterious historical finds too, like the Antikythera mechanism, which is an ancient Greek analog computer, and the Baghdad Battery, which might have been used to generate electrical current thousands of years ago.

Did you hear about the underwater eruption in the Pacific Ocean? It's making the water fizz like a giant, natural soda! This happens because volcanic activity releases tons of gas, like carbon dioxide, which bubbles up through the water. It’s a wild sight and a reminder of how powerful and unpredictable nature can be. Imagine snorkeling through a sea of bubbles – how cool would that be? #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...

Animals like cats, dogs, elephants, and humans have ears that stick out to help funnel sound vibrations into their inner ears! Dolphins, on the other hand, don’t have outer ears but have some of the sharpest hearing around. Scientists think dolphins use a part of their jawbone to send vibrations to their inner ears. Inside the inner ear, these vibrations travel to the cochlea, which is full of tiny hair cells that help detect different sound frequencies. The longer an animal's cochlea, the more types of hair cells it has, giving it a wider range of hearing abilities. Pretty cool, right?

Do you often visit places where Earth acts in a mysterious way? Like places with zero gravity or where objects turn into stones? Or never-ending lightening storms... or waterfalls that go nowhere. Probably, not so often. But here's a list of unusual places located right here on our planet that will definitely give you shivers... The Devil’s Kettle Waterfall is situated in Minnesota in the US. And it looks like a pretty average waterfall. However, what's interesting about it is that it has 2 different bodies of water. People visiting the waterfall have dropped different objects into it and never got them back... As they never reappeared in the stream. I wouldn't want my phone to fall into that stream of water!
