 15 Most Dangerous Places on Earth (P3-End)

our planet Earth has some of the most breathtaking landscapes but unlike tourist fills cities and towns there are a few places no human should ever dare to visit here are the 15 most dangerous places on earth



kawah Ijen Volcano Indonesia

 seeing the breathtaking and mesmerizing blue  lava like rivers of light might seem like a futuristic movie scene but in reality it's extremely poisonous kawah ijen lake a stunning  turquoise lake sits at the peak of Kiawah ijen volcano and at night electric blue flames can be seen rolling down the mountain  sides the absolutely jaw-dropping lake is full of hydrochloride acid which is more corrosive than battery acid the hydrogen  chloride gas spewing from the volcano collides with sulfur containing gases and creates a powerful chemical that is  unimaginably corrosive the Greek Canadian explorer George Coronas once again had the opportunity to explore one of the  world's most dangerous places the adventurer took a small rubber boat out into the acid lake to measure its acidity it's just a  toxic lake of sulfuric acid but they possibly go wrong the pH of the water was measured to be as low as 0.1 3 but even though  this volcano and Lake are clearly dangerous and deadly to humans miners still risk their lives to collect the accumulated sulfur  George had watched these miners hard at work and recalls how the only protection they had was a wet rag stuffed into their  mouths sulfur dioxide gas would still leak through and dissolve away their front teeth beautiful as it may seem the kawah ijen  volcano and lake is one of the most dangerous places on earth


Mount Washington New Hampshire

 the United States it's a widely known fact that Mount Everest is not only the  tallest mountain in the world but is also the most dangerous mountain on earth and while no other great summit can come close  to the incredible height and perplexity of Mount Everest there's one other mountain in the world that holds a substantial title  known as the most dangerous small mountain in the world Mount Washington in New Hampshire is any hikers worst nightmare but what exactly makes this peak so hazardous it's clearly not the height but the  wind in April 1934 the highest ever wind velocity of 231 miles per hour was recorded on Mount Washington even at wind  speeds of 60 miles per hour hiking becomes nearly impossible powerful blowing winds and cold weather combined to intensify  hypothermia freezing temperatures that drop to negative 40 Fahrenheit and continuous heavy snowfalls make Mount Washington  a truly dangerous place to visit daredevil hikers who see this mountain as a beatable obstacle do heavy research before starting their unforgettable journey  meticulous calculations have to be made in order to begin the adventure with appropriate weather with over 150 recorded  fatalities since 18-49 it's paramount to embark on such an adventure extremely prepared and organized .


Lake Nose  Cameroon

The silent but deadly lake Norse turned out to be much more dangerous than scientists first assumed macness  located  in Cameroon Central Africa seemed like an innocent beautiful lake surrounded by small villages at first glance no one could  expect this quiet blue and picturesque Lake to be more than just a pool of water but the narrative changed on one fateful August  night in 1986 a tall fountain of water started spouting out of Lake nose the fountain soon released a white cloud of gas which  grew bigger by the minute it reached 300 feet in height and spread over to the nearby villages residents soon started to lose  consciousness and collapse on the ground the gas turned out to be carbon dioxide at concentrations greater than 15 percent  arbon dioxide can be lethal and on that August night more than 1,700 villagers died on the spot co 2 can be kept under Lakes  and surrounding rocks for decades when a volcano erupts it emits dangerously high amounts of carbon dioxide this compound  has the ability to pass through rocks and slowly dissolve in the groundwater if this event takes place near a lake carbon dioxide  eventually saturates the water leaving it to be extremely dangerous and hazardous while most cases have dissolved under water  carbon dioxide over turn reach the surface and eventually dissolve in the atmosphere this didn't happen to Lake Nepos poisonous  gas remained trapped underclothing triggered its release and resulted in over 1,700 deaths


Fraser island Australia

 A fun way to spend a hot summer day is to pack your suitcase and head to the beach everyone enjoys a refreshing entertaining time at the beach swimming and tanning alongside your friends and family but one beach that's categorically forbidden is located on Fraser island just off the southeastern coast of Queensland Australia stands a beautifully mesmerizing Beach but unlike your local shores Fraser island is the  Number one most dangerous beach in the world. Every aspect of the beach is unsafe and  extremely hazardous from the ocean water and beach sand to the animals and water species that inhabit this land no part of  Fraser island is considered to be bearable deep inside the ice-cold waters live Irukandji jellyfish and blue bottles tentacle species  with powerful stinging abilities how can sand be dangerous you may ask as the sand in the lakes can't be seen enthusiastic  swimmers choose to go headfirst into the water without any hint of how shallow the water truly is as far as animal inhabitants go  most have heard of the infamous Australian dog species the dingoes and unlike our human companions and loyal dogs these  species aren't as friendly to people as one might assume they are wild undomesticated predators that can attack anyone or  anything that triggers aggression or irritation as there are thousands of beaches across the world there is no logical reason to visit  fraser island without a death wish


Elephant Kingdom Thailand

 the elephant kingdom located in Conjure  Thailand is  thought to be the world's most terrifying tourist attraction  whilst cities and towns all over the world offer beautiful scenery and  historic castles this particular tourist attraction offers something completely different even though the name elephant kingdom  might make you think this famous Thailand destination is stretched-out land inhabited by elephants in reality it's something quite  the opposite have you ever wanted to climb into a metal cage and feed reptiles well the notorious elephant Kingdom offers just  that tourists from all over the world gather in Conjure in the hopes of feeding live ten foot long crocodiles only separated by a  metal cage that has kept afloat with plastic barrels there was little to no barrier against the deadly reptiles tourists on board of the  metal cages often don't realize that they themselves could end up being the crocodiles meals the small caliber rafts were often  broken down and unsafe the empty plastic barrels that held up the cage would often sink or move adding suspense to the  already tense situation when a tourist captured the now viral photo of tourists dangling food for the reptiles social media went  berserk the international outcry forced the Thai government and local police to finally step in and take proper measures this  extremely dangerous and over-the-top park was finally shut down in 2016 on the counts of numerous safety hazards.
