10 Most Enigmatic Places on Earth

January 6, 2013 Leave a comment

I am sure all of you must have heard about various locations in the world but what I bring to you is a list of places about which there are still speculations and their existence is not entirely logical so to speak.

So compiled here is a list of some of the most enigmatic places on earth. Do share your thoughts in comment section.

 

Machu Picchu

This is one of the most preserved places of Peru and was apparently built in 1450 CE

Baalbeck

This place is famous for the three temples and the wall that surrounds them. The wall is built with the Stone of the Pregnant Woman, some of them weighing as much as 1000 tons!

Easter Island

It is famous for the stone structures that are present there. Some that weigh more than 86 tons. There were actually so many of these structures that they were later moved onto the perimeter of the island and places upon stone slabs!

Stonehenge

Built in 2500 BC, the Stonehenge is one of the most amazing prehistoric monuments. It has been remodeled quite a lot but it still maintains the same spell bounding factor in itself!

The pyramid of Ghiza and Sphinx

Although the pyramids have been the center of attention for quite sometime now, one still wonders and gets awed at the spectacular magnificence of these structures and what maths would have been involved when coming up with them!

Underwater ruins of Japan

In 1995 a swimmer in Japan went further across the shore and found what appeared to be a whole lot of man made structures under the water that were found to be 5000 years old! Amazing isn’t it!

The Stone Spheres

Since the 1930′s in Costa Rica, archeologists have been coming across these stone spheres in all different sizes and some as heavy as 16 tons!

Chichen Itza

This is supposed to be the place where the famous Mayan civilization presented the rain God with still-beating human hearts as part of a ritual of theirs. The same civilization that predicted the end of the world in 2012. Creepy eh!

Tiahuanacu

This particular structure in Bolivia is famous particularly because it has been standing for 17000 years now and apparently was made using some technology that no longer exists! Interesting I say!

The Nazca Lines

Considered to be one of the most amazingly mysterious places in the world, the Nazca lines in Peru are these huge pictures made in the plains apparently drawn by some giant hand. Given their form, they are certainly not man made!

10 Amazing Things You Didn’t know About Dreams

January 6, 2013 Leave a comment

Dreams are a very important part of our lives because for some that is actually the real world (unfortunately) and then for some, it is an escape, and then for others it carries messages and signs. The science of dreams is very interesting but listed below are some even more unknown aspects of dreams that might interest you.

Epic Dreams

Dreams that completely changed a person after he or she woke up from it, are known as epic dreams. Some people who have seen epic dreams have also experienced dreams within dreams, and eventually a life altering phenomenon!

Marijuana and Dreams

Doctors have found that those taking marijuana had eventually suffered from a complete loss of dreams and after they stopped taking it, the experienced what could only be called vivid dreams. This proves that marijuana messes with the REM of a person.

Difference in dreams of different genders

So here are the amusing differences between the dreams of men and women. Where women have longer dreams, filled with emotions, and with places and people they know, men’s dreams are shorter, void of emotion and normally involving places and people unknown to the dreamer!

Dreams and Psychosis

Here is a thought, if a person has a continuously disturbed REM, it can eventually lead to psychosis. REM is the Rapid Eye Movement Sleep, for those who didn’t know.

Dreams of the Blind

There is something you did not know, even the blind people have dreams. They only dream sense and sounds, no images unfortunately.

Dreams inspire great ideas

Vincent Van Gogh claimed that he dreamed his paintings and then he painted those dreams and this stands true for a lot of different great inventions. They were dreamed first!

Children’s Nightmares

Believe it or not, children have more nightmares than adults, specially in the age where they cannot speak. Some people also believe that when children cannot speak, they see the exact future in their dreams! Creepy no?

Dreams are forgotten

More than 90% of the dreams are forgotten! Yes, no wonder we do not remember what goes on when we sleep most of the times.

Dreams of Animals

It seems hard to believe but yes, animals also dream. The pattern varies from dogs to cats to birds ofcourse but doctors claim that all mammals can dream period.

Brain Activity during dreams

Now this is a rather interesting find, that the cortex of the brain is more often than not, more active then it is when a person is asleep! A very bad case of this is when the brain does not shut off at all even if coma is induced, which then causes fatal insomnia!

10 Bizzarre Guiness World Records

January 6, 2013 Leave a comment

Going through the Guinness book of world records is a favorite pass time hobby for a lot of us. I am sure that not all of us remember all of the weird records that are listed there. We have all seen various kinds of records that were made and then broken but in this article, I will be bringing to you some of the strangest world records ever!

Read on to find out exactly to what extremes people go to get on the Guinness Book of World Records! Do share your thoughts in comment section.

The Worlds Longest Diary

Robert Shields of Washington, is in the habit of writing a diary everyday from 1972 to 1996! The diary is more than 35 million words long and considered to be the longest diary in the world!

1016 Piercings

Robison who graduated from a high school in Ottawa decided to get 1200 but found it so painful that he just settled for breaking the record after which all but the record breaking piercing was left in his body! The previous record was that of 1015 so he just got 1016 done!

Most T-shirts worn

Wearing the most T-shirts at one time is a record that is held by David Alexander who wore exactly 121 t-shirts to break the previous record.

Largest Display of Star Wars Clone Troopers

LEGO® in the U.K built the largest collection of Star Wars troopers clones which are entirely built up of plastic lego bricks and nothing else. The collection was displayed in 2008 and there are as many as 35,310 models of Star Wars troopers in there!

Largest Smurf Collection

Steven Parkes who is a British national started collecting stuff toys and key chains of the Smurfs when he was merely a child and it soon became a habit! He now has more than 1100 pieces now that include Chritmas Smurfs, Smurfs dressed as historical figures, and Smurfs related to Easter!

Maximum number of people dancing to Thriller

Hector Jackson, an impostor of the original Micheal Jackson decided to throw him a tribute! So what he did was that he performed at the Monument of Revolution in Mexico City, the song titles “Thriller”, the same year that Michael had died. It is estimated that the number of people were around 13597!

The World’s Biggest Miser

Miss Hetty Green, however, she was a very rich lady and I certainly do mean very rich because she has nearly 107 million dollars in adjustment. The extent of her miserliness can judged from the fact that once her son broke a leg and she spent so much time looking for free medical treatment that the leg was amputated! Talk about being a miser, this woman is a total biaatch!

Tightest Frying Pan Roll

The record is held by Scott Murphy who rolled an aluminum frying pan with his bare hands into a circumference of 30 centimeters. It was a 12 inch aluminum pan. I would surely not like to be on the receiving end of a punch from those hands!

Eating an Airplane

The man called Michel Lotito ate up a Cessna 150 which is an airplane for those of you not in the know. It took him two years to eat the whole plane, the years in question being 1978 to 1980.

Eye Popping record

I reserved the weirdest for the last place so here goes. There is a guy from Belo Horizonte named Claudio Pinto. He is the first man in the world who can pop both of his eyes out nearly 95% or what would roughly be one and a half inch out of their respective sockets! YIKES!
