This Earthquake Lasted More Than 200 Years

2020 has been a very strange year so far, don't you think so? One might even beg to rewind this year and go back to the previous one. So let's remember, what an amazing year 2019 was. And it truly was, as 2019 was full of mind-boggling discoveries and scientific breakthroughs. Some of the discoveries were so unexpected that it's hard to believe they actually happened. For example, scientists found out that if people started having 6 fingers, the brains would easily adapt to it. Also, in 2019 a group of scientists grew human taste cells in a lab, they actually discovered those had an ability to smell, just like our noses. Meanwhile, outside of our planet some unusual things happened as well. The supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy lit up twice as brightly as usual. What a bright year indeed!

There're so many things in the world we absolutely have no idea about: curious animals, mysterious places, unusual processes in our own bodies. Plus, scientists make new discoveries every now and then. It's so difficult to pay attention to everything new going on - and you don't even need to. You just have to know at least 10 of the facts from this video - and you'll be the most interesting person in the room. For example, did you know that nails grow with different speed on your hands? Nails on your dominant hand grow much faster. Are you looking at your fingers right now? Good! This is what you can tell your friends in your next smart conversation.

How many hours a day do we spend staring at the screens of our laptops and smartphones? Yes, countless hours! That's why we eventually notice our vision change and get much worse. We replace glasses and contact lenses to get sharper vision, but this process seems to have no end. However, we can do something to improve our eyesight even now! First of all, we should start with changing our lifestyle. Pay attention to what we eat, when we exercise, how many hours a day we sleep, if we sometimes fall asleep in contact lenses - we should stop it immediately! Also, eye exercises are really helpful. Your eyes have muscles and they can get sore when held in one position for too long, just like any other muscle in our body. Give your muscles a break and you'll be grateful over the years.

Very few of us decide to dive into the depth of the ocean and explore, what's going on there. What we can tell for sure is that it's a place full pretty scary inhabitants we know very few about. The ocean is deep: the average depth of the entire ocean is about 3.5 km. and its deepest point is the Mariana Trench, which hides a lot of murky secrets.  One of the questions is: is the Meg the most terrifying creature ever living in the ocean or it has competition? The size isn't always the decisive factor when it comes to danger, even though the Meg was pretty impressive in size. It could reach up to 82 ft. in length. However, some tiny inhabitants of the ocean can be terrifying as well. Take the blue-ringed octopus, for instance. It might be small, but this thing is no joke. It has a dangerous venom and an antidote to its sting still hasn't been found.

Ever wondered how many times a minute you blink? Or how big your brain would be if you removed all those wrinkles? Or how long of a line you'd get if you stretched all of your veins in one line? Our bodies are such fine mechanisms, that it's always really interesting to find out what makes those systems work so well.  For example, did you know that not all of us experience goosebumps? Some scientists have suggested that goosebumps are an evolutionary holdover from our early ancestors who kept themselves warm through the heat they managed to retain beneath their hairs of skin. Your body is many things in one: it's a walking chemistry set, a sustainable life form, a complex biological phenomenon. So there'll always be something to learn about the body, always something to find out about its marvels.  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.

Nowadays one can find absolutely anything online. There's even no need to go to a library, as almost every book you need is in digital format. Very often we catch ourselves googling every question that appears in our heads. Or if a friend doubts what the right answer is, we say "ok, let's google it". But how cool is it to show your knowledge about various facts using... just your brain! You don't need to access any webpage - just search for the right answer in the best computer ever - your head!  For example, next time you see a knob made of brass, you know why it is made of this material: actually brass prevents the spread of germs. And next time you get yourself a Chupa-Chups and notice a tiny hole on top of its stick, you know it's there to make it hard for the candy to come off the stick. Want more random cool facts?

Is there any natural phenomenon that truly scares you? Maybe a thunderstorm, a flood or a tornado? How about something much less common but pretty real: spider rain! Yup! It may rain spiders in some places of our planet. And after it happens, the whole ground is covered with spider web like a white carpet. There're many weird places on Earth where really strange things can happen. For example, a sleeping town - people fall asleep there without any particular reasons and their sleep may last long. Another place is a city where no boys are born and girls truly rule there.  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.
