The Craziest Natural Phenomenom Ever

Published in Entertainment at April 12th, 2017 at 9:14 AM

Science is a huge part of the modern day world, from the life savings medicines and procedures it helps humanity with, to the very technology you're viewing this video on, it was all down to breakthroughs in science. So when there are natural occurrences that are just as mind blowing and mesmerising as scientific breakthroughs, its only right celebrate them. This video checks out the worlds best natural occurrences in a bright light.


A Corona

A corona, or crown, is an aura of plasma that surrounds the sun and other stars. The Sun's corona extends millions of kilometres into space and is most easily seen during a total solar eclipse, but it is also observable with a telescope.


Phantom Suns

Sun dogs, mock suns or phantom suns, are an atmospheric phenomenon that consists of a pair of bright spots on either side on the Sun, often co-occurring with a luminous ring known as a 22° halo.


Ocean Crop Circles

They’ve been called the crop circles of the ocean floor—seven-foot diameter patterned circles, but their origin was an enigma, and local divers termed them “mystery circles.” The mystery persisted until 2011 when the culprit, a male pufferfish just five inches long, was finally caught in the act. And recently scientists studied the process of how the species creates these elaborate designs in order to woo females.


The Great Blue Hole

The Great Blue Hole is a large submarine sinkhole off the coast of Belize. It lies near the center of Lighthouse Reef 70 km from the mainland and Belize City. The hole is circular in shape, over 300 m across and 124 m deep. The Great Blue Hole is a part of the larger Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System, a World Heritage Site of the United Nations.


March of The Red Crabs

The Christmas Island red crab is a species of land crab that is a habitant to Christmas Island. Although restricted to a relatively small area, it has been estimated that 43.7 million adult red crabs once lived on Christmas Island but the accidental introduction of the yellow crazy ant is believed to have killed about 10–15 million of these in recent years.Christmas Island red crabs are well known for their annual mass migration to the sea to lay their eggs in the ocean.


Giant Crystal Cave

Giant Crystal Cave is a cave 300 metres below the surface Mexico.The main chamber contains giant selenite crystals some of the largest natural crystals ever found. The cave's largest crystal found to date is 12 m and 55 tons in weight. The cave is extremely hot, with air temperatures reaching up to 58 °C with 90 to 99 percent humidity. The cave is relatively unexplored due to these factors. Without proper protection, people can only endure approximately ten minutes of exposure at a time


Giant Spider Web

It is believed that the huge web is formed during a ‘perfect storm’ of weather conditions when the air is dense with flying insects – making it easier for spiders to catch their prey.


The Catatumbo Lightning

The Catatumbo Lightning is an atmospheric phenomenon in Venezuela. It occurs only over the mouth of the Catatumbo River. The frequent, powerful flashes of lightning over this relatively small area are considered to be the world's largest single generator of ozone gases. It originates from a mass of storm clouds, and occurs during 140 to 160 nights a year, 10 hours per day and up to 280 times per hour. After appearing continually for centuries, the lightning ceased from January to April 2010, apparently due to drought, temporarily raising fears that it might have been extinguished permanently


The Grand Prismatic Spring

The Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park is the largest hot spring in the United States, and the third largest in the world. It is located in the Midway Geyser Basin. Grand Prismatic Spring was noted by geologists working in the Hayden Geological Survey of 1871. Its colors match the rainbow dispersion of white light by an optical prism: red, orange, yellow, green, and blue.


The Moeraki Boulders

The Moeraki Boulders are unusually large and spherical boulders lying along a stretch of Beach in New Zealand between. The erosion by wave action of mudstone, comprising local bedrock and landslides, frequently exposes embedded isolated boulders. Local M?ori legends explained the boulders as the remains of eel baskets, calabashes, and kumara washed ashore from the wreck of ARAY TAY URU, a large sailing canoe. This legend tells of the rocky shoals that extend seaward from Shag Point as being the petrified hull of this wreck and a nearby rocky promontory as being the body of the canoe's captain.


Basalt Columns

Basalt Columns are natural rock formations created by the rapid cooling of lava on the earth's surface millions of years ago. Unweathered basalt is black, but after thousands of years of weathering, many more beautiful colors evolve.


Bioluminescent waves

Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism. Bioluminescence occurs widely in marine life, as well as in some fungi, including some bacteria and animals such as fireflies.


The Great Sardine Run

The sardine run of southern Africa occurs from May through July when billions of sardines spawn and move northward along the east coast of South Africa. Their sheer numbers create a feeding frenzy along the coastline. The run, containing millions of individual sardines, could rival East Africa's great wildebeest migration. However, little is known of the phenomenon. It is believed that the water temperature has to drop below 21 °C in order for the migration to take place. The shoals are often more than 7 km long, 1.5 km wide and 30 metres deep and are clearly visible from spotter planes or from the surface.Sardines group together when they are threatened.


The Blind Ant Mill

An ant mill is a phenomenon in which a group of army ants, which are blind, are separated from the main foraging party, lose the pheromone track and begin to follow one another, forming a continuously rotating circle. The ants will eventually die of exhaustion. This phenomenon is a side effect of the self-organizing structure of ant colonies. Each ant follows the ant in front of it, and this will work until something goes wrong and an ant mill forms.


Living Rocks

Living Rocks are an organism that somewhat resembles a rock that is alive. It is a filter feeder that eats by sucking in seawater and filtering out microorganisms. They're born male,but also becomes female in later life, and reproduces by tossing clouds of sperm and eggs into the surrounding water. If it is alone, it will procreate by self-fertilization.


Lenticular clouds

Lenticular clouds are lens-shaped clouds that form in the sky. Because of their shape, they have been offered as an explanation for some UFO sightings


Raining Animals

Raining animals is a rare phenomenon in which flightless animals "rain" from the sky. Such occurrences have been reported in many countries throughout history. One reason offered to explain this phenomenon is that tornados sometimes pick up creatures such as fish or frogs, and carry them for up to several miles. However, this primary aspect of the phenomenon has never been witnessed.


Lake Of Mummies

Lake Natron in Tanzania is one of the most serene lakes in Africa, but it's also the source of some of the most incredibly haunting photographs ever captured — images that look as though living animals had instantly turned to stone. The alkaline water in Lake Natron is so caustic it can burn the skin and eyes of animals that aren't adapted to it. And deposits of sodium carbonate — which was once used in Egyptian mummification — also acts as a fantastic type of preservative for those animals unlucky enough to die in the Lake.


Rainbow Eucalyptus

Rainbow Eucalyptus is a tall tree, and is the only Eucalyptus species found naturally in the Northern Hemisphere.The unique bark is the most distinctive feature of the tree. Patches of outer bark are shed annually at different times, showing a bright green inner bark. This then darkens and matures to give blue, purple, orange and then maroon tones.They grow 6 feet wide and over 200 feet tall.


Fire Tornado

A fire whirl – also known as a fire devil or fire tornado, is a whirlwind induced by a fire and often made up of flame or ash. Fire whirls may occur when intense rising heat and turbulent wind conditions combine to form whirling tornados of air.


Sailing stones

Sailing stones or sliding rocks are a phenomenon where rocks move and make long tracks along a smooth valley floor without intervention. Stones sometimes turn over, exposing another edge to the ground and leaving a different track in the stone's wake.Trails differ in both direction and length. Rocks that start next to each other may travel parallel for a time, before one abruptly changes direction to the left, right, or even back to the direction from which it came. Trail length also varies – two similarly sized and shaped rocks may travel uniformly, then one could move ahead or stop in its track.
