Picture in your mind, you’re camping with your buddies for the weekend in a nearby forest. Your tents are all set-up, you ate your dinner, and you went to sleep. Suddenly, the smell of smoke wakes you up. You go outside to see what’s going on, and there it is: you’re in the middle of a wildfire. This scenario might seem unreal for most people, but it’s more common than you’d expect. Wildfires are very fast; they can overtake the average person in just a few minutes. Their flames travel approximately 14 miles per hour, and they burn everything in their path if they find enough fuel to feed on. Knowing what’s going on and how to act in these situations is a true life-saver. Other videos you might like:

What to do when you’re trapped 6:39 #wildfire #forest #brightside SUMMARY:
– Naturally occurring wildfires usually come about during droughts or in dry weather. That’s when green vegetation becomes “bone-dry”, to the point that it acts as a fuel for the fire. – Whether they occur naturally, or are the result of human actions, three elements must be available for a wildfire to burn. Fuel, a strong heat source and oxygen.
– Fuel can be any material that feeds the fire. For example: grass, brushes, trees, and sometimes even houses. – You can create a defensible space around your house that covers at least 30 feet – This is your shield.
– Since the fire sparks can travel for miles, make sure that your gutters and rooftop are cleared as well.
– The best way to keep an eye out is through communication networks, either through social media, or even better: old-school local radio broadcasts.
– If a wildfire has spread beyond control, and it’s close to where you live, chances are you’ll need to evacuate as soon as possible. – The best route to take is the one that doesn’t have enough flammable material for the flames to feed on; such as waterways and rocky areas. – When evacuating, your best tool outta there is your car. So, map out all the roads you can take that will lead you to safety.
– Keep all your important valuables ready inside a box. This should include passports, birth certificates, marriage licenses, family jewelry, and whatnot. – According to statistics, more than 50% of homeowners either refuse, or fail to evacuate their homes.
– Make sure you keep all windows and doors closed, but NOT locked. This will prevent the fire from spreading faster, while still allowing fire-fighters to get in.
– Change to cotton clothing. Most other synthetic material can melt and cause serious injuries. – Flames outside a house can cause the temperature inside the home to rise, causing a fire inside the house. So, it’s important to move the furniture away from the walls, and to the center of each room.
– Lastly, don’t leave your home until you’re sure you’ll have better chances of surviving outside than inside. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

What If the Largest Underwater Volcano Exploded
How do you imagine the world's most powerful volcano eruption? Boiling-hot orange lava spilling over the slopes of a mountain and destroying everything in its path? Huge clouds of ash, blacking out the sky and wiping out all the life in nearby towns? Toxic gases that sneak into the smallest nooks? But do you know that you might not even notice this devastating event? Few people know that around 80% of all volcanic eruptions happen underwater. What's more, submarine volcanoes alone spit out more than 75% of the world's magma. There are over 1 million underwater volcanoes on our planet. But as you may guess, it's very hard to explore and examine these underwater monsters. No wonder scientists almost missed the largest underwater volcano eruption of our time!

– A Kiwi passenger was flying back home after having an amazing vacation in Samoa, when something strange attracted her attention. – This moving carpet, which spread for a whopping 150 square miles, was the result of the greatest submarine eruption in modern history!
– Havre Seamount volcano, which exploded on July 18, 2012, lies between American Samoa and New Zealand in the southwest Pacific Ocean.
– The seafloor, miles away from the volcano, was littered with giant pumice blocks, and some of them were the size of a van! – Underwater volcanoes are usually gentle giants that don't bother us too much. When they erupt, it can easily go unnoticed, due to their distant location.
– If you were somewhere around at that moment, you would see the ocean start to bubble furiously, and you’d smell the disgusting stench of sulfur. – But it turned out that the Havre volcano eruption was an unusual one. The caldera (which is a large crater that appears after massive eruptions) spanned for almost 3 miles, and 14 vents in it spewed out huge amounts of lava.
– But the most interesting thing was that the volcano produced not only pumice rocks, but also lava domes, ash, and even underwater lava flows! – Climate changes may affect not only weather and sea level, but also trigger disastrous volcanic eruptions all over the planet, both underwater and on land! – You can probably imagine the panic every single person on the planet would feel should all the volcanoes erupt at once. – Once inhaled, volcanic ash turns into a glass-like substance inside people's lungs, and you can probably guess the tragic outcome.
– By the end of the eruptions, the world would be encompassed by a volcanic winter, and the very concept of seasons would become outdated. – Eventually, the climate would get so incredibly hot that all the trees and plants would die out, all the oceans would boil away, and Earth would turn into a Venus-like place.

4 Proven Ways to Get Rid of Fruit Flies
Ah, it's summertime! So you probably have some delicious fruit in your kitchen: peaches, strawberries, oranges… But you know how it goes – you bought more bananas than you could eat up in time, so, it’s time to talk about fruit flies. Yup, you're not alone in your love of fruits! Bugs are not what you want to find in your house. And fruit flies are especially annoying because it doesn't take long for them to take over your kitchen. Luckily, there are several easy ways to get rid of those pesky critters. So here are some tips on how you can keep them out of your sweet summer treats for good! Other videos you might like:

The Funnel Method 0:50
The Bowl Trap 3:01
Freezer Swap 4:08
Prevention 4:51 #fruitflies #bugs #brightside SYMMARY:
– The funnel trick is a magic trap for fruit flies, and it’s kind of a fun DIY project. – Start by grabbing a tall vase or jar to use as your base container. – Next, you’ll need to choose your fruit fly bait. Fruit flies go after anything sugary.
– Now, roll a piece of paper to create a funnel shape, and tape it so that it keeps its form. – Stick the narrow end through the top of your base container so that the funnel is resting in the opening. – Finally, set your fruit fly trap near the infested area – perhaps near your fruit bowl, garbage, or sink. – There's a similar method but with a little less crafting. All you need do is put ripe or rotten fruit in the bottom of a medium or large bowl. – Throw in a sweet liquid as well, maybe soda or syrup.
– Cover the bowl as tightly as possible with plastic or Saran wrap. Grab a fork and poke holes around the top of the wrap.
– This is the same idea as the funnel method – we’re luring the fruit flies to a bait that they can get to while making it harder for them to escape.
– Take 2 medium-sized jars and fill them with fruit rinds and peels. Cover the mouths of your jars with clear stretchy plastic wrap. – Poke a small hole, perhaps with a toothpick, in the middle of the dents; this is where the fruit flies will enter the trap.
– When you notice fruit flies in one jar, put it in the freezer. This will freeze the flies and their eggs! – The one sure-fire way to prevent fruit flies in the first place is to store your fruit properly. – Once the fruit is ripe, it’ll last much longer when refrigerated. – Even if your bananas are black on the outside, still try refrigerating them – this may save the tasty inside.
– Citrus fruits like oranges and grapefruit stop ripening after they’re picked, so these can stay in the fridge for up to 3 weeks. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

17 Foods You Can’t Buy in Some Countries at Any Price
Every country has its customs and … a list of banned food ingredients. Yep. Things you can always find on the shelf of your local grocery store might be off limits somewhere else in the world. That’s not just a cultural phenomenon, but a matter of health and safety. For example, in Europe and Great Britain, selling chicken treated with chlorine has been banned since 1997. Since 2010, chlorinated chicken has also been banned in Russia. Farmed salmon is banned from a list of countries, including Australia and New Zealand. Raw, or unpasteurized milk, is so common in Europe, especially in Austria and Switzerland, you can buy it from a vending machine there. However, it’s been banned in about half of the United States for the past thirty years. So you guys might want to reconsider your list the next time you go shopping. Other videos you might like:

The First Human Who Learned to Hibernate
Do you ever want to curl up under a warm blanket and sleep through the freezing winter just like bears? Actually, many animals do that, but unfortunately, it doesn’t work with us humans. Or… does it? Well, we know one man who survived the cold for over 3 weeks just like that. Imagine you’re going on a picnic with your colleagues. To make the get-together even more exciting, you choose to meet in the mountains. What could be better than a delicious meal in the open air with an incredible view? That’s exactly what Mitsutaka Uchikoshi thought on October 7, 2006… Other videos you might like:

10 Facts About Our Planet You Didn't Learn In School https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRXdjc5yxVs&
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umlYYwaYY8E TIMESTAMPS:
Why Mitsutaka decided not to use a cable car 0:52
The last thing he remembered 2:04
Happy accident 3:54
24 days without food and water 4:20
So how did he survive? 5:15
How we could harness the power of hibernation 6:05 #truestory #survivalstory #brightside SUMMARY:
– That day, he went up Mount Rokko to join his buddies from work.
– So after Mitsutaka and his friends had a really good time and were done with the grilling, they decided to come down and go home. – Everyone felt that way, well, except Mitsutaka. He came up with an even better idea. What if he stayed and found his way down all by himself?
– At first, everything was just fine. He was walking through the beautiful hills, thinking about the nice day.
– At some point that day, he simply got lost. – But when he tried to cross a river, he slipped and fell. And the worst part was that he broke his pelvis, which made it almost impossible to walk normally. – He recalled later that “the sun was out, he was in a field, and he felt very comfortable”. That was the last thing he remembered.
– It was only by sheer luck that on October 31, a hiker was tramping through the area. When he stumbled upon a man, it was, of course, none other than Mitsutaka.
– He spent 24 days wounded, without food, water, or any protection from the rain and cold. – To protect itself, his body entered a state similar to… hibernation.
– Since Mitsutaka clearly had nothing to nibble on for over 20 days, his metabolism decreased to a minimum.
– After 2 months in the hospital in Kobe, he was as good as new. Dr. Shinichi Sato, who treated him, claimed that his brain had also recovered 100% as if nothing had really happened!
– But most scientists were excited because it was the first known example of a human going through hibernation.
– Hibernation could be the key to exploring the universe in reality. – As far as more down-to-earth issues are concerned, it could also be applied in medicine.
– In fact, a procedure that somewhat resembles hibernation has been used by surgeons for decades. – Maybe researchers will take this technique further to simulate hibernation. Or who knows, maybe they’ll come up with something new. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

– If you lose your backpack at the airport, you have a good chance of finding it because it’s large. A smaller bag will be more difficult to spot, and if an opportunistic thief spots it, it’ll be easy for them to hide. – With the online check-in options, you somehow guarantee your arrival at the airport for your flight. So, the sooner you do it, the better. – You can always weigh your luggage at home, or you can restrict yourself from packing some necessities that are already available at the airport. – Right before your long-awaited journey, make sure you check some websites that show you the secret. For example, which seats have more leg room.
– It’s better to invest in a good quality lock for security, or try a reusable cover that can keep your luggage nice and clean. – Many people automatically go to the first check-points that tend to be overcrowded. The main reason is that the last checkpoints don’t have a queue, and passengers assume that they’re closed.
– Next time you travel, make sure you double check the amount of liquids you’re taking, and place them in a transparent pack to speed-up the process. – When trying a new cuisine or new food, you don’t know how your stomach will react to it, and doing that right before a flight is a huge no-no. – The best time for turbulence sensitive passengers to fly is during the winter, in the morning or late at night. And if you’re wondering why turbulence has the luxury to pick it’s time to shine, let’s get into some sciency stuff. – The airport is one of the most infectious places you can be in. So, having some anti-bacterial wipes and sanitizer to protect yourself is literally life-saving. – 93% of flyers experience jet lag. So, the best way to avoid this is by adjusting your watch, and maybe the time on your phone, to the time of your destination.
