7 Ways to Look Taller and Slimmer

How to protect yourself in a critical situation? Knowing some useful pieces of advice for different life situations can be really helpful! There is hardly anyone who’d want to find themselves in a dark alley with a strange person chasing them or get a flat tire in the middle of nowhere. What would you do if the person chasing you grabbed you by force and took you to their car? What if you don’t have a spare tire and the “nearest” service station is actually many miles away? TIMESTAMPS: If somebody is trying to take you away by force 0:58 If you’re in an elevator with a criminal 1:34 How to understand when a storm is coming 2:06 If you get a flat tire 2:53 Stay focused during a plane’s takeoff and landing 3:24 Put out a fire with baking soda 3:53 How to quickly calm down when panicking 4:32 Use your phone as a reflector when you cross a road in the dark 5:29 Smell camphor to remove signs of tunnel vision 5:56 Start blowing or rubbing your nose to distract a predator 6:38 Make water safe after a natural disaster by adding drops of bleach 7:18 Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ SUMMARY: If you are being pushed into a car, try to “accidentally” drop as many personal belongings as possible (but remember that it’s better to keep your cell phone with you). This could help the police find you faster. If you’re in an elevator with a criminal, press the buttons for every floor. This will give you a chance to run away or signal someone. It can also baffle the criminal — and make you look like a lunatic. Shake any drink, and pour it into a glass. If the bubbles spread to the sides, the weather will be good for the next 12 hours. If you suddenly get a flat tire in the middle of nowhere, make small holes in the sides of the tire, and stuff it with grass or thatch. Stay attentive during the first 3 minutes of takeoff and the last 3 minutes of landing. Don’t get distracted! According to statistics, 61% of all accidents in the air occur in these time periods. If your kitchen stove or the oil in your frying pan catches fire, do not try to extinguish them with water. Why? Water repels grease and oil, and the fire can spread when you splatter it with water. Instead, pour a box of baking soda onto the burning area. Panic is one of the main factors that decrease your chances of survival in a dangerous situation. Therefore, it’s important to stay calm and follow simple actions that will help you stabilize yourself. You can use your cell phone or camera as a light reflector when crossing a poorly lit road in the dark. It will help drivers see you on the road and react in time. To remove eye tension, take a fabric pouch containing powdered camphor crystals or a bottle of camphor oil with you. When you feel tired, bring the pouch or bottle close to your nose, and take a deep breath. If you are being threatened, act like a hysterical victim: cry, sniff, blow, or wipe your nose (even on your sleeve). Water may be unsafe to use after a natural disaster like a hurricane, blizzard, or earthquake. Purify your tap water with bleach while you wait for the local authorities to announce that the water is safe to use.

What things you should avoid while driving. Today’s cars are also packed with plenty of safety features like airbags, anti-lock braking systems, traction control, and shatterproof glass. However, despite your car’s sophisticated safety features or computer system, you could find yourself in a tricky situation at the worst possible time. And it’s still a good idea to avoid doing certain things. TIMESTAMPS: Don’t press the “Off” button while driving 0:58 Don’t select “reverse” while driving 1:50 Don’t select “park” while driving 2:26 Don’t attach too many keys to the ignition key 2:54 Don’t forget to change your car’s oil 3:35 Don’t overfill the engine oil 4:27 Don’t wait until the fuel tank is empty 5:05 Don’t ignore warning indicators 5:45 Don’t forget to check your tire pressure 6:31 Don’t forget to balance your tires 7:14 #parking #drivingtips Music: https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/... SUMMARY: Some cars might require you to press the button for 3 seconds or more to shut it down. This is a safety feature in case you have a problem with your accelerator or brakes. If your car has cameras and a screen on the deck, the rear-facing camera might come on, or parking aids might become available, but the car won’t back up all of a sudden or come to a stop. If you shift to park while driving, your car might make an awful grinding noise and continue driving. Your car probably won’t suffer damage if you accidentally do this once. Gravity is still at work when you put your car keys into the ignition. During car rides, bumps and potholes will cause these heavy keys to pull and pull on the ignition until it wears out the tumblers. If you don’t change your oil, your car will run less efficiently. It will also stop lubricating the engine components, causing wear and tear. If the mechanical components continue to grind on each other, the car might become inoperable. The engine oil always comes with a dipstick, which has a mark to indicate the level the oil needs to be filled to. Fill it to this level and not to the top as if it were a bottle. Signs that your car’s catalytic converter has been damaged are that your car won’t accelerate when you press the pedal, your car’s fuel emission will drop suddenly, or your car won’t start. A good rule of thumb is that if you see a warning light on the dashboard, call or bring it to a mechanic as soon as possible. Checking your tire pressure is a good practice that often falls by the wayside. It’s even more important to do it when you’re headed out on a road trip or if your daily commute is over 30 minutes. If the tires are out of balance, you don’t have full control of your car, and your tires will wear unevenly.

The video discusses various foods that are often mistaken for other items. For example, carrots are actually regular carrots that have been shaved down to a baby size, rice and white rice are the same product, and avocados can't ripen while on the tree. The presenter also shares an interesting fact about Wasabi: most of it is not actual Wasabi, but a mixture of horseradish mustard and green food coloring. Finally, the presenter shares a caution about fresh pineapple: it contains an enzyme that digests protein, and can cause a burning sensation when eaten in excess. #brightside Find more information on the topic in this article: https://brightside.me/creativity-cook...

We meet liars every day, but we don’t know what to do when they are our kids. Bright Side knows why children lie and 9 easy ways on how their parents could stop their children from lying. Did you know that your behavior in certain situations may also influence your child to hide the truth? TIMESTAMPS Kids know the consequences 1:02 Kids don't want to upset you 1:59 They don't lie but fantasize 2:51 Kids tell lies because they don't remember 3:41 They think that lying is polite 4:35 We are programming the right answer 5:15 Kids are afraid of changing roles 6:16 We tell lies ourselves 7:10 Kids think they are too silly 7:55 A Single Phrase to Stop a Child’s Tantrum 8:46 SUMMARY Let’s say your child got upset because a friend of theirs doesn’t want to share a toy with them. Don’t wait until the screams are out of control. Ask your child right away: "Is it a big, a middle-sized, or a small problem?"  And when they reply, suggest thinking about the solution together, whatever size the problem might be. Perhaps they’d accept another toy? Or invite the friend to play together? There are many options! Children’s psychologists explain there are three basic reasons why this seemingly ordinary question calms kids down: • The child sees we accept and respect their feelings. • The question makes them stop to think and assess the situation. • By asking this question, parents invite the child to try and solve the problem themselves. Therefore, by asking this question and calmly talking with your little one for a few minutes, you’ll save yourself a lot of time and nerves and will also gain their confidence.

You probably don't need to worry too much about a regular spider bite unless you have an allergy. But a venomous spider is a different story. Allergic reactions from them are more severe. Venomous spiders are easy to identify by their pattern. For instance, a black body with red "hourglass" coloration on the underside of its abdomen signifies a black widow. And the venom of a black widow spider causes immediate pain at the bite site and then spreads to other areas of the body. The black widow is one of the most venomous spiders in the world. Poison 15 times more potent than a rattlesnake’s! They won’t touch you if you don’t touch them – that’s why they prefer quiet, undisturbed areas like attics and sheds. But if they feel threatened – or worse, she’s got eggs to protect! – this normally shy 8-legged introvert will come for you! So what happens to your body when a spider bites you? And what to do about a spider bite? #brightside TIMESTAMPS: Why the black widow spider can bite you 1:07 ... and what will happen if it does that 2:39 Brown recluse bite 5:20 Wandering spider 6:43 Wolf Spider Great Spider 😲 8:10 Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook:   / brightside   Instagram:   / brightgram   5-Minute Crafts Youtube: https://www.goo.gl/8JVmuC 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/ Learn more about your ad choices.
