More 14 Riddles Even Smartest Students Couldn’t Solve Videos

We're used to having drinks and meals 30 minutes into a flight and for the airplane to start decreasing altitude 30 minutes before landing. However, there are flights without all these rituals simply because there's no time for them. For example, the short-hop leader among scheduled commercial flights remains the route of the Scottish Airline LoganAir. It connects 2 islands: Westray and Papa Westray. The distance of this route is less than 2 miles. In good weather, the flight can take just 47 seconds. If you have very good eyesight, then, from the airport of departure, you can see the airport of arrival and even the friends meeting you. These two islands are part of the Orkney Archipelago. It has over 70 islands, and there are no bridges between them. The flight’s altitude doesn’t exceed 300 ft, so, sitting by the window, you can enjoy the magnificent landscapes of Scotland. Just not for long. But jetting from one country to another doesn’t always mean long packing and hours sitting at the airport. So, today, we'll tell you about the quickest flights in the world. #brightside TIMESTAMPS:

More Less Than 1 Minute Shortest Flight Ever Videos

Okay, here's another cool 'what if' scenario for you. What if the Earth were physically split in half? Is it even possible to separate the planet? Weel, to do that, a super-powerful laser would be needed. Such a laser has to receive energy directly from the sun. The weapon goes into space on a rocket thousands of miles above our world. Then, once the laser arrives at its destination, it opens wide to expose plates of solar panels. The laser absorbs and concentrates the sun's rays. Then a powerful energy beam with the diameter of several cities shoots into the middle of the planet. Oceans through which the beam passes boil and evaporate from the high temperature. These vapors turn into a vast thundercloud in the sky. A strong wind drives these clouds over the continents. Heavy rain falls, which floods not only cities but entire countries. As the tectonic plates shift, tsunamis are created. Huge waves crash onto the shore. The Earth is split in two. And, this is just the beginning… Do you like disaster movies? Then you'll definitely like our new 'what if' video. #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

More What If Earth Split and Pulled You to the Center Videos

If we could taste colors, what would each color taste like? Sounds like a hypothetical question but this is exactly what happened to me recently! It was a Sunday morning, and I fried eggs for breakfast. But something was definitely wrong. I wasn’t sure if it’s eggs or me, though. Now, you've tried fried eggs, right? They normally taste like… eggs. But that time, along with the egg, I could also taste lemon, vanilla yogurt, and even some paper. Whatever was the reason, I decided I’d be okay with just a tea for that day. But as soon as tried it, I spat it out. What is that? Did I put a spoonful of black pepper there? I tried to eat some strawberries but, along with the normal strawberry taste, they had a taste of hot chili. Suddenly, I got a weird thought. Do I… taste colors? And then I remembered something I read in one article once. Synesthesia! According to the theory, signals from one sensory system may end up in another system. For example, when a person can see the color of music or feel the smell of words. Something similar happens to newborn babies. And something similar happened to me… #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Have you ever heard of Carrington Event? It was the worst solar storm ever recorded. On September 2, 1859, people all over Europe and North America woke up at night, confused and still tired. But when they looked out of their windows, they discovered it wasn't sunlight. Auroras appeared even in the regions where they had never been witnessed before, like Cuba, the Bahamas, Jamaica, and Hawaii. The most high-tech stuff of that time, telegraph wires, shorted out throughout Europe and the US. Sparks were flying from equipment, and many human operators got electric shocks. Papers in telegraph offices burst into flames. All the machines were immediately disconnected from their batteries. Fires, ignited by short-circuits, spread over large areas. Earth's inhabitants had never seen or experienced anything like that before. At that time, very few people knew that the Sun was to blame for this chaos… So, let's figure out what a solar storm can do to Earth and how dangerous a geomagnetic storm. #brightside TIMESTAMPS:

A regular lack of sleep makes us feel exhausted right after waking up. Moreover, it's one of the main reasons for gaining weight. Around 15% of the human population suffers from insomnia. People need about 8 hours of good sleep every night to support the normal state of physiological and psychological health. We have studied the reasons for insomnia and found effective methods to get rid of it. But first of all, do you know why some people put a glass of water under their bed? Well, in feng shui, water symbolizes wealth and perfection. It transforms from liquid to solid form and gas quickly and flows freely. Many believe that water helps in new beginnings and carries some coded information in it. And, it helps you sleep safe and sound because it absorbs negative energy. You can check to see if you have trouble falling asleep because of negative vibes with a simple test. Feel a bit skeptical about this ritual? But why not try? By following our simple recommendations, you will be able to forget about insomnia forever and enjoy nice dreams every night. #brightside TIMESTAMPS:

More Put a Glass of Water Under Your Bed, See What Happens Videos

Imagine you’re scuba diving in the ocean, watching corals and colorful fish flitting by, when suddenly an enormous shadow appears above you. You look up and see a massive creature approaching you, its mouth a gaping abyss… Relax, just stay still and you’ll be fine. This leviathan is a basking shark — one of the scary sea monsters that isn’t really capable of doing harm to anyone. Basking sharks are filter feeders, just like baleen whales: they open their large mouths to swallow plankton and don’t even have teeth. Mother Nature is always full of surprises. It's hard to believe how many incredible and different creatures live on our planet! Some of them look terribly scary but they are not dangerous at all! They can look scary based on their large size, sharp teeth, or thorns, but all of these animals are mostly harmless to us. For example, tailless whip scorpions you might meet in North and South America, as well as Asia and Africa, are more afraid of you than you are of them. These nightmarish creatures don’t have stingers and won’t even bite when threatened. So, we gathered some new facts about the animal world. After watching the video, you'll realize how diverse and amazing it really is. #brightside TIMESTAMPS:
