Lightkeeper Saw Sailors Nearly Frozen and Knew What He Had to Do



It was a cold winter morning of January 28, 1885. Fierce winds, blizzard, and freezing temperatures discouraged anyone from wandering outside at Cape Elizabeth, Maine. Head lightkeeper Marcus Hanna was cocooned in a blanket in the safety of the light station known as Two Lights. Sick with a severe cold, he was sleeping after a difficult night shift. The man was unaware of a tragedy that was unfolding not far from his home. The schooner Australia departed from Boothbay, Maine, at 5 PM on January 27. The ship was heading for Boston, and there were three people on board: the captain and two crew members. At first, the journey was uneventful. But not long after the schooner had left the port, the weather started to worsen. By midnight, a severe storm was pounding southern Maine. In no time, the temperatures dropped below zero. To avoid the worst outcome, the captain decided to seek shelter in Portland Harbor. But luck wasn't on seamen's side that night… #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

They Released 1.5 Million Balloons Never Expecting It’d End Terribly



What happens when a helium-filled balloon is released and rises into the atmosphere? How long does a balloon last in the sky? Well, let’s see. As it gets higher, the temperature and pressure around the balloon begin to fall. But the pressure inside stays the same, which makes the balloon constantly expand. It travels upwards for about an hour and a half, and reaches a height of about 28,000 feet, or 5 miles. That’s only a little less than the altitude that planes fly at. That’s when it goes pop, and the little pieces fall all the way back to the ground. The Balloonfest ’86 was a fundraising event that took place in the city of Cleveland, Ohio. The goal was to set a new world record by releasing a huge number of balloons into the air. They wanted to release 2 million of them, and it took 6 months to organize. Just as it started to rain in the early afternoon, the balloons were released into the grey sky, setting a new world record. The colorful cloud filled the square. But as the rain became heavier, the balloons were pushed back down. The storm carried them back to the city… #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Which Animal Can Run the Farthest Without Stopping



Everybody knows that the Cheetah is the fastest animal in the world. But in the ultimate test of speed vs. endurance, it immediately takes the lead. The cheetah reaches highway speeds in only 3 seconds, but after just 20 seconds – covering a distance of 7 football fields in that time! – it can’t keep going. Lions are built for short bursts of speed, either. They hunt by sprinting to their prey and pouncing on it with leaps of up to 36 feet, almost as long as a semi! More than a few seconds, though, and their muscles tire out… So which animal has the most endurance? The human takes the lead! Speed is for the animal kingdom. We were built for long-distance running, and we top them all! The best we’ve got in that department is a man named Dean Karnazes, who jogged 350 miles across Northern California without stopping for…80 hours and 44 minutes! That’s over 3 days of non-stop running! Learn more interesting facts about animals with the video! #brightside TIMESTAMPS:
