If there's a river or a lake near your house, then you probably know that certain places aren't suitable for you to swim. Well, for example, if there are some hidden rocks or, according to some legend, a terrible monster. But there are places where not only you're not supposed to swim, but you shouldn't even put your hands or feet in. We don't simply want to scare you, so you're gonna see it for yourself. These are the places where you shouldn't to swim. *** / @incredible-qq2zi SLICED ► goo.su/v3QLR

TikTok Memes its supposed to be ironic

I live in Australia and I have never seen a tarantula at a beach and when I go camping at the beach up at Kalumburu I can see and hear the dingos but they never attack us. Plus the beach’s are beautiful here in Australia so come for a holiday and get a drink of beer in chill out with your mates and cook something on the barbie👌🏿❤️🇦🇺✌🏿
Tarantulas dont live in aus (australian btw)
He said spiders not tarantulas.
Yea mate beautiful ayy bloody oath come visit
My name is KingWerewolf180 bloody hell mate
Its beatiful there i dont live there tho i live in Norway and its cold but right now its warm and so fun to go to the Beach like OMG its so fun 😂
It would have been a lot better if they actually showed the place they were talking about the whole time. Instead of throwing clips of movies in there. Some of them I'm not even sure if it is a movie clip or the actual place they're talking about. Super annoying.
Also a lot of the stuff he talks about is simply not true, take the Lake Chirik-Kel aka "blue lake". According to this guy it is unknown how deep it is, which is not true: the lake has a maximum depth of 258m
Danielle Turner - LifeVantage Distributor yep
I made it
It's annoying as hell!!!! The Aussie accent doesn't help either
If you're on a top 10 video for decent content; you're an idiot
One place no one should ever go is my room, you can only go in with an experienced guide. my friend Timmy went in and never came out, he said it would be easy.
Ty C same my room is so messy
Mine too
Cool
I love how after each mention of the word 'dangerous', people are shown smiling and swimming XD
Haha! 😅
Okay, I’m sorry I have to say this but I’m a bit offended. I live in Australia and yes there are dangerous creatures here, but you just need to be careful on the exact places you are heading to. I don’t think it was very nice that you said “You guessed it, absolutely everything” I mean there are some beaches that are forbidden and I get what your trying to say. Let’s not forget the fact that Australia is a beautiful place and the animals that we have is what makes Australia😊
Right. But here in the USA, we don't have but maybe a handful of places you can't go. Australia _is_ dangerous, but in a cool way.
i agree Gabriella Moon
Gabriella Moon correct man!
my favorite animal there is the stone fish it is fascinating
@Donald Trump you can't even spell president😐
I love water bodies. .. but when the water is like dark blue it scares the shit outta me
Baekhyun Is Holy same if the water ain't clear it looks scary I ain't going in
Hi fellow exol
Heaven Smith ikr it's so scary
Katrina KWP hola exol ♡♡
I feel the same way pall
Wow the first one was like the Simpson's movie with homer dumping in the lake...thats so sad. How ignorant we can be as humans treating earth like this.
Marcus Hardigan it's a far greater problem than mankind is willing to admit. We need Robot Artificial Intelligence to intervene or we're generally screwed.
Blue 64 if A.I took over we could possibly have a iROBOT situation and need will Smith to save the world.
Marcus Hardigan better than a Fallout 3 Situation
Blue 64 i didn't play fallout 3 sorry. But still the idea of A.I getting control of politics might be a bit scary. Like the movie Keanu Reeves made where he came to save earth from us. Which was to wipe us out. That's really scary. Depends who creates the A.I too might effect the robots look at humans. It's always some corrupt fuckhead effecting life.
Marcus Hardigan actually, that was entirely Humanity's fault, the Machines were simply defending themselves in that conflict, Humans declared open war, Humans used Nukes, humans drew first blood, Humans were their own instruments of destruction, propagating the War because they were at war, then fighting harder because they were losing.
A team of divers reached the bottom of Blue lake lol It's 253 ft
Blood Raven shit i dive lol and im too scared to go past 18 :o
Migxy Grace where you dive at :o I want to so bad but only super murky rivers near me :(
It's 77 m 253 ft
Good eye!! I fixed it :)
Thats Blue lake Australia, the one talked about in the video has been explored to 850+ feet.
I love the way that "Fraser Island" literally describes the entirety of Australia.
I live in Australia and I have always been told don’t swim at beaches in Northern Australia because they are covered with crocodiles. I went to northern Australia a couple of years ago to a cafe where you could see the beach and there were crocs everywhere.
Mekenzie Premecz I'm Australian and I've always wanted to see a croc for 11 years!! Pleeeease tell me the name of the café
o wow man seems legits Bish, stop lying
Weirdo Aka lucy what would he gain from lying about something like that 😂
Please tell me where... the only place I’ve seen a fucking crocodile is on the sign at Australia Zoo... 😂😂
Mekenzie Premecz yes that is true
10. Chernobyl 9. Chernobyl 8. Chernobyl 7. Chernobyl 6. Chernobyl 5. Chernobyl 4. Chernobyl 3. Chernobyl 2. Chernobyl 1. An American high school's pool
Chernobyl is terrible to swim at because of the nuclear disaster that happened.
yes but first it is not all Chernobyl and Chernobyl has 1 small lake that's all then there is a river nearby and surely there is also nuclear energy but not more than the energy levels around Chernobyl because there aren't radioactive fluids driven in the river
Nugget// Baconbot17 hey that’s not true!!!!!!
Ikr
Wow. Thanks for the information
4:12 What y’all going on about dingoes don’t attack humans And Fraser island is actually a really nice place Tho u do have to be an experienced swimmer. Sharks won’t attack u unless u on a surf board THEY R RIGHT BOUT THE JELLY FISH They r really dangerous and jellyfish in Australia kill hundreds of people each year. Spiders aren’t all that dangerous but there are still some that can kill u So u can go if ya want Don’t blame me if something bad happens
Olivia Rodrigues LEARN BASIC GRAMMAR! It is YOU AND ARE! And it’s THOUGH, AND IT IS ABOUT!
Doom Maximus IYM SORRIE THET EYE HAFE THITTY GRAMMA!! P.s love u ❤️
Jellyfish kill hundred of people each year?! Do some research...since records started in 1883 its estimated that jellyfish have killed a total of some 80-90 people; i.e. less than one a year.
SomaliCoastguard I don’t give a sh*t about the precise number
Olivia Rodrigues~ Kill people who are allergic or not? Jw since I’m DEATHLY allergic.
WELL EXCUSE ME I LIVE IN AUSTRALIA AND NEVER HAVE I EVER EXPERIENCED A VENOMOUS SPIDER, NOR A DINGOE. :( Australia just wants to be loved
no austraila is not a safe place lmao and good job for liveing becuz i sure as hell would not lmao
It discourages tourism which means less people in our already overpopulated county. I like it. We don't need more people our country will start to suffocate
AUSTRALIAS THE BEST
Even though I’m Tasmanian
no australia is a death trap XD
They did not say the bermuta triangle so I guess that's my next swimming trip. 😂
Same

The most dangerous place to swim...my public pool.
Kaylee's squishy's plus! 7303 the kitty pool....
Wild's Corner oh my goodness yes! No one ever knows or wants to know what is at the bottom of that pool.💀😂
Kaylee's squishy's plus! 7303 I used to have 8 siblings now only 6 survival of the fittest thank you Darwin lost good men to that damn kitty pool
Dingos aren’t that bad, they’ve very very skitish. If you move a little faster than normal, they’ll jump. It is a different story if you’re alone with some food. Don’t hit them even if its only one, because next thing you know some of its friends come and you’re being ripped to shreds 🤷🏽♀️
Donald Trump you’re a precedent?
@Donald Trump it's president......🤣
Oh and don't pee in their territory or they will find you and attack

Don't swim in the public pools in Houston Tx! Sometimes you can see turds floating by!
Lol yes

glasslinger you're hilarious
Ugh and exploded diapers! As i was coming up from the water... Right by my face!
glasslinger Public pools are disgusting.
Its sad that humans can destroy such beautiful places or things
Omg
We have also caused the end of species
Nice video ...very well done 👍👍 Mystery lake in Jamaica...no bottom , full of fish , unknown species, some bigger than a metro bus ....much more .....only very experienced swimmers as am I should dare swim there & even so- Danger ! Danger ! & lots of mosquitos at night ...
I love the part when you show the apocalypto dudes when you mentioned the "locals"😂😂😂 @3:18
Could you tone down the movie cuts in favor of the ACTUAL images and clips of the stuff you're talking about?? It's annoying and makes it hard to know what is what...
crimeevil1 i konow its pretty annoying
crimeevil1 yes I agree
facts bruh
True
And it's just a bunch of woman in bikinis, like what the hell is he just super horny?
wow i live in Australia and i have never seen a bloody dingo at any of our amazing beaches, just woww
No but it is rather common for Fraser island
Yeah the only thing here that is dangerous is jelly fish
AUSTRALIA HAS THE BEST BEACHES WTF. AND ITS VERY SAFE
Shut up greta
harrison’s hot springs in bc. it’s a awesome place to visit but there is lake there which has sea weeds in it. you can put your feet in it and do a little deep but people have died there because of the sea weed but i recommend all of you to come to canada british columbia and visit this place because it is gorgeous
In Florida, we consider anything with water holding alligators and snakes, so we generally stay away.
Ryan Brown no I live in Florida and I swim in lakes and ponds with snakes and alligators and I don’t stay away
Hunter Sampsell tf
I live in Florida and I agree. I ain't getting in any water but the ocean lol
Hunter Sampsell stfu
Hunter Sampsell wtf how tf will you live
how about I don't swim anywhere ever and for that matter stay away from all lakes, rivers and the ocean because that shit scary
Deez Nuts lol okay just did
oh yea
Anton Fuchs what about springs?
Emma The Potato :3 well if the water is clear and shallow enough to touch the bottom while keeping my head above the water and be able to breathe than I'd be fine with that
Anton Fuchs depends how tall you are. It’s super cold though. It’s also pretty clear. Chances of alligators but they almost never attack humans. There is fish but they are harmless.
Detroit River. Yeah, it looks normal and clam but the currents are so powerful. Once you fall into the river, It's hard to get back to surface. A few months ago, A woman died in that river. She and some friends were on a boat and thought it'd be cool to swim in the river. Then got in and was swimming but, a speedboat went pass them and waves started to pull and push them around. The girl's friends got back on the boat safely but the girl was pulled underwater by the currents. Divers had to come and diver in the river to get her body. Every time it rains or storms, everyone should know the currents of a body of waters will get higher. So every time it stormed, I'd always watch the river get all crazy and water splashing everywhere. It's scary to watch but was still entertaining for me. Thanks for reading my ted talk :)
hey, im australian and can i just say not once have i ever seen a fricken dingo, i have never been bitten by a spider or seen any really poisiness spider, i have never been stung by a jellyfish... and I know this last point has absolutly nothing to do with this video but austrailians dont costantly eat vegemite, i actually really hate vegemite but when you use the tiniest bit on toast it actually tastes pretty good... okay sorry for my rant😀...also pls ignore my spelling lol
When I visited Australia they had me put vegemite behind my ears to keep the drop bears away. I didn't use toast, put it directly on my ears.
@Caitlyn Whalan Not since I put vegemite on my ears!
Crafternoon discovery that sounds like something someone would say to lull unsuspecting tourists into a false sense of security. Those crafty Australians, always up to something...
@@jerry3890 uuummmm you eat weird...
@@jerry3890 wtf is wrong with your eating habits
Yeah, the Toilet Bowl in Oahu Hawaii or as Hawaiians call it The Halona Blowhole: not to be confused with The Queens Bath. I went for my senior trip in 1990 and nearly died. In fact, I believe it's been officially closed down now because too many people have died. There are two main sections. The first and biggest is pretty safe if you stay in that area. Then there is a secondary or back part. There is a sort of rock cover formation. It's called the Toilet Bowl because there is a section where the water flows in and out to the ocean. I guess you could say that's the third section and one where you'd NEVER want to go. I tried looking for a video of that piece but didn't find one. There probably is somewhere, but there are a few vids of the Toilet Bowl itself, which I'll post. So, the second section is dangerous. We were told it was dangerous, but really didn't say how dangerous it really was. In 2015, I'll post the video, they had 426 rescues in 2015 so far and had 6 deaths in the last 12 months of when that newscast was broadcasted. Anyway, I was in the 2nd part and what happens is ocean tide flows into the TB overflowing onto the rocks beside it. Anyway, there are holes in the rock there where you can hold on and the water will briefly go over your head. Then about 2/3 of the water goes back out into the ocean. Unbeknownst to me, there was a little alcove that's beside where the water comes in. It's about 6 feet back, but it's all underwater. You can't see it. Well, I'm a VERY strong swimmer...or rather used to be at 18. Anyway the tide was strong and it can pull you from where you're holding on. A friend and I got pulled back into this alcove when the tide got pulled out to sea. We were probably in there for 5 seconds maybe a little more, but as the tide came back in, it pushed us back out to around the place we were pulled too. It was a bit scary at first, but nothing big. I was in there for about an hour straight with the water going over my head for a few seconds and got pulled into that alcove a couple times, then pushed back out. There was a 3rd time though and I got pulled back again. My friend was still in there too when I got pulled back. I was just waiting for the tide to push me back out. I felt the tide push back in, but I was still in the alcove, or so I thought. At that time, I could hold my breath for a good while, 3 minutes. Not even close to the world record, but better than most. Anway I waited for about 10 seconds and I felt the tide start pulling again, I started swimming forward pretty hard. I was wearing contacts at the time so I always kept my eyes closed. Well I went to go up for air thinking I must have cleared it and I felt rock over my head and still underwater. OK, so at this point, I'm VERY scared and I opened my eyes losing one of my contacts. All I saw was darkness. It wasn't black, but pretty dark. As you know, getting scared turns your adrenaline on, makes your heart beat faster, oh and incidently uses up more Oxygen. So, I swim as HARD and fast as I can. Look, I'm no Michael Phelps but I extremely strong at swimming. I've swam out of riptides before, I beat anyone I ever swam against. My point, I'm strong and it like I was going no where. It was like I was stuck in a bottleneck. I have no idea how long I was stuck there. It felt like 5+minutes, but it was probably 1 minute and change maybe. It felt like 5 or 10 minutes, but I know that's not right. Anyway, at that point where I tried to swim out of that twice at my hardest and felt, I burned up most of my o2 and I KNEW this was it. I'm going to die. People who've had near death experiences say your whole life flashes in front of you. I didn't have that, but rather I thought how my mom and dad would feel, I could see my funeral and there was nothing peaceful about it, but then I was still conscience for most of it anyway. There comes a point though, even though you know you're going to die, you're going to open your mouth and gasp for air and you'll just choke down water and drown. Well I prayed of course and it was still all dark and rock on top of me and I don't know if I temporarily blacked out or greyed out, but as I was about to breathe, I remember suddenly seeing sunlight only about 2 or 3 feet above me. I reached out kicking hard and took the massive deep breathe. I climbed out of there just getting my air back. I asked everyone beside me how long I was gone. They didn't even notice. I asked incredulously, how could you not notice? I was stuck where the ocean tide comes in and out. Anyway, that was one of many near death experiences I had. Ok, here's the video of the Toilet Bowl itself. kzhead.info/sun/ZLewmp2rj3WHqKM/bejne.html Here's the news video of it after someone died. kzhead.info/sun/p5uEkddwaapnpIk/bejne.html That thing has been closed and opened numerous times. The newest video I could find was from 2017 and it said they were reopening the Halona Blowhole. I don't know if it's open or closed now, but a fair piece of advice. If you just MUST go there, stay in the first part, where you see most people, even kids. I don't think Michael Phelps could have swam out of there. I didn't swim out, I got lucky and got pushed out. I wasn't turned around or anything, it got me and it was either pure luck or God saved me. I don't know. I can tell you though, you could be the strongest person on the planet and you're not going to win against "Mother Nature" unless you're a superhero. I'm not talking Batman, but a Mutant or Metahuman. Seriously though, if you find yourself in a situation like that, first of all, don't do it...at least stay in the safer part. I know I'm speaking on deaf ears, because when you're young, you feel like you can do anything, but U can't. That said if I could go back to the Toilet Bowl, would I? I sure would, but I wouldn't go in the 2nd section. I don't know for sure, but I imagine everyone who's died has either gotten knocked off their feet and swept into the ocean or was in the back part there and the same thing happened to them. I was just lucky!
Sithtiger all this for 34 likes.
I read all of that tbh worst use of a trip to the toilet
Sithtiger wow , I just got learned 😂
Tried finding Toilet Bowl when I lived there, never did. I know there’s been a lot of drownings at Molakini in Maui. My friend was stationed there in Coast Guard- she called it death crater.

Love the intro!
Ruined with unrelated BS film additions. Hope you had people watch the entire thing as at 3min I'm out
I literally just found a article from 2008 about scientists finding the bottom of the blue lake like it took me two seconds to google that
opencabinets yeah me too!
"Yeah, we found the bottom of the Mariana Trench, but finding the bottom of this lake is like, totally impossible." -said no one ever
Haha I thought I'll look through the comments I can't be the only one to of seen the article and you didn't let me down!
First hit on google (2008) of blue lake base found in Australia. However, the "blue lake" from the video is one located in Kabardino-Balkaria (Russia).
Just google: Stunning underwater pictures show undiscovered cave network of the Blue Lake.
I swear mind warehouse has something against Australia
Ya
?
I've got nothing against Bitey Stingey Land, except the spiders, jelly fish, sharks.........aah, it's all been said before.
OMGitsDESTINY2 Great I mean Australia has something against the entirety of the human race sooo
You do find spiders on the beach and whales but not sharks, its too close to the sand banks and there are no dingos at the beach either.
Thanks. for the imformaion
Oh my god bahahaha the Fraser Island bit had me laughing. Watch out we are just so dangerous 🤣
Fraser Island Is wonderful, The only issue is the animals in water. Always make sure to swim in areas where it is safe! Not some ridiculous beach with a rip! Also theres a Blue Lake in Australia too! Apparently It is like the blue lake in this video, It is highly deep. At the bottom there is a Spanish Ship from ages ago!
"highly deep"....yeah that's a good one. A Spanish ship at the bottom of a lake?? right. I was born in Australia and have been many places and I have never heard that one.
Haha I was born in AUS too. Maybe you haven't put the effort into searching it up. FYI I said APPARENTLY! And how about you spend your time not picking on some stranger that you don't know and keep comments to yourself. The story about the Ship MAY BE A RUMOUR
I read that the max depth of Blue Lake is 253 Ft
Ron Pigeonhill How did a Spanish ship end up in a lake???
I don't know how the hell it did, but in my reply I said IT IS A RUMOUR!
Hanakapiai Beach. Hawaii Hawaii may sound like the ideal location for a beach holiday but one area you should avoid at all costs: Hanakapiai Beach. This stretch of coast might look like an idyllic swimming spot but looks can be very deceiving. The water often seems calm and serene from afar but underneath the surface there are strong riptides and powerful currents that have claimed the lives of over 80 swimmers over the years. There is even a plaque (see photo above) that warns people to stay out of the water and has the current death toll marked up. Bolinas Beach. California While films such as Jaws and Deep Blue Sea may make you petrified to ever go swimming in the sea again, the chances of actually being attacked by a shark are incredibly thin. With that said, taking a dip at Bolinas Beach in California will significantly increase those chances. The beach is part of the ‘Red Triangle’ and is a hugely popular hunting ground for the greatest predator of all, the Great White Shark. The sharks are attracted to the area New Smyrna Beach, Florida New Smyrna is known as the shark attack capital of the world. Be careful when surfing out in the Atlantic since Florida sharks may attack humans. Common sharks in New Smyrna beach include blacktip, spinner and tiger sharks. West End, Grand Bahama Island West End has some of the most shark-infested beaches in the world. Aptly named, Tiger Beach off of Grand Bahama is one of the world’s top spots for seeing tiger sharks. Most diving expeditions guarantee an up-close sighting of these toothy creatures, which can grow to be about 16 feet long. Tiger Beach is on the bucket list of many underwater photographers and adventurers-- steer clear if you're not a pro. Queensland, Australia There’s a lot to love about Queensland. The beaches are world class, the marine life is abundant, the Great Barrier Reef and the Whitsundays are two of Mother Nature’s most impressive marvels. However, in keeping with Australia’s legendarily lethal reputation, plenty of danger lies in wait in Queensland’s waters. Beware the sharks, saltwater crocodiles, stonefish, blue-ringed octopus, and box jellyfish. A sting from the latter can cause cardiac arrest and death within minutes Australia is home to some of the most incredible marine life on the planet, but one area you may want to avoid exploring is the ocean off the coast of Queensland. These waters are not only home to sharks, salt water crocodiles and the venomous blue-ringed octopus, they are also the location of one of the deadliest creatures on the planet, the box jellyfish. Certain species of box jellyfish can have tentacles up to 10ft in length, that contain enough poison to kill a human in 2-5 minutes! Sightings of these sea monsters often cause entire beaches to be shut for days at a time in order to protect swimmers. Lake Victoria, Africa Lake Victoria is Africa’s largest lake by area, the world’s largest tropical lake, and the world’s second largest freshwater lake by surface area. Its expansive shores touch three countries - Tanzania, Uganda, and Kenya - and for centuries, it has been a vital resource for the millions who live nearby. But it’s not without its perils. According to local officials, erratic weather conditions and other unfortunate circumstances cause 5,000 deaths each year on the lake, making it one of - if not the - most dangerous places to swim on the planet. Amazon Basin, South America The Amazon basin stretches across South America, covering nearly 40 percent of the continent in the countries of Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela. A mind-boggling array of flora and fauna call the basin and the Amazon Rainforest home. A mind-boggling number of them also want to kill you. Dare to dive in the water here and you could meet your end courtesy of eels, piranhas, alligators, anacondas, or the candiru, a parasitic freshwater catfish that reportedly has a nasty habit of invading openings in the human body There are many reasons why the Amazon Basin is a dangerous place to swim. The waters are home to the anaconda, the red-bellied piranha and the electric eel, but the main reason to avoid the rivers and lakes of the Amazon Basin is down to a tiny fish called the Candiru. The small fish is part of the catfish family and is also known as the toothpick fish or vampire fish. While the Candiru may look perfectly harmless from afar, the fish is known to have a tendency for invading human bodily openings, including…. the urinal tube! Boiling Lake, Dominica The dangers of this unusual locale are clear as soon as you hear the name. Boiling Lake in Dominica’s Morne Trois Pitons National Park is a hot spring you definitely don’t want to bathe in. The water temperature ranges from 82-92 °C (180-197 °F) along the edges, and the centre is so hot that no one can get close enough to measure it. The depth of the lake is also unknown. True to its name, the grey-blue water is literally boiling, covering the surrounding area in a perpetual cloak of steam and threatening to scald anyone who would dare attempt a soak The name says it all here. Some people, however, may not take the risks into account and fall victim to the allure of the steam. The boiling is believed to be caused by heat from a magma chamber beneath the lake but the water temperature can reach a scalding 194 degrees. Bikini Atoll, The Marshall Islands Lost somewhere in the ocean, this island looks like a paradise, doesn’t it? But Bikini Atoll was actually home to numerous nuclear testing programs that turned the picturesque island of Bikini into a radioactive wasteland. The inhabitants were forced to abandon their homes, and even today this remains hazardous for living organisms: the abnormally high level of radiation recorded here can cause cancer. Elephant Kingdom in Chonburi, Thailand In Elephant Kingdom, Thailand, at a Crocodile farm, the owner leases out a small semi-closed raft space for tourists to come visit, see and FEED crocodiles! The raft is a thin wooden one balanced on plastic barrels and has net enclosure half way around it. The shack has a roof too. The people get inside the enclosure and are given fishing rods to feed the crocs. They use beef or meat pieces attached to the rods and dangle the rods before the crocodiles. The reptiles then jump out of the water to catch the meat and their food. There are tourists who also tease the crocs by dangling the meat in front of them and then pulling it up as the hungry animals reach for it.
Red Paws I learned more in this comment than I did in this 10 minute video
Purple_Panda agreed
Red Paws No-one even bothered to thank you for painstakingly typing all that information for us in your post 😡 THANKYOU!!! It was extremely interesting and informative, also...scary!!! Personally I generally only swim in actual swimming pools, but have been Scuba diving twice in supposedly 'safe' areas in Greece. Awesome! Lakes and dark water absolutely terrify me as you can't see what is lurking under the surface 😱! I know that we are invading various creatures habitats when we can't resist swimming in their homes, but oh some of those waters just look sooooooo inviting...! I believe most people think 'aw it'll never happen to me' but it does! Thankyou again...you may have saved quite a few lives with your efforts 🤗 take care and don't let the 'Salties' bite!!!
The best beach (my opinion) is siesta key, Florida.
Thank You for writing this! This has helped me on where not to go to visit on vacation😁
Although the Gozo blue hole can be dangerous, it’s beautiful when the water’s clear.
There is a creek called eli creek and it’s perfect for swimming and I’m talking about Fraser Island I know that because I live in Maryborough and I’ve been there so many times and yes you might be stung by jellyfish but it is also great for fishing
don;t give away our secrets.. preservation my friend!!
I live in rockhamton
Congratulations, you live in a shithole. Nothing to boast about @R. Evans no. 4
I love Eli creek however very cold but refreshing
Ummm... i live in Australia and never in my entire life have i seen a dingo on a beach😂😂👎🏼
Alanna Parry watson there on fraser island
Alanna Parry watson behind some beaches in Australia are forests. Aka dingo home
have you been to many beaches
I'm from the opposite side of the world, but I'll take a wild guess that they don't hang out near cities. Australia sounds like a nightmare to hike in, aka my personal hell.
Meridia's Bacon nah just stay go to the state NSW and you will not find any dingoes
I only swim in pools I don't trust lakes , or any water I don't know whats in it . :)
weeb
I live lakeside, but wouldn't ever swim in it! If I cant see through it, I'm not getting in! I have no desire to swim with fish or any other water creatures, only except chlorine tablets 😂
Must I ask, what do you drink?
I love it when people don't recognize sarcasm...clowns 😒
Some sort of aquafobia
Eagle's Nest Sink in Weeki Wachee, Florida. There's a sign under water telling you to turn back because you could die. A truly deadly place.
I'm in Australia and just wanna say that every single detail you said is spot on. I have walked outside my door and INSTANTLY been swarmed by hundreds of man eating spiders and venomous land sharks who can kill a group of 45 people at once. It is a truly terrifying place chock full of murderous frogs, drop bears, hoop snakes that can roll as fast as a car. Stay out or die.
This is why I prefer pools
kendra mendoza nahh not dangerous enough
Peter Beedle he could of worn ear plugs
Pools are dead
kendra mendoza I just like anywhere with water.(Not literally)
Nice to know you prefer bacteria-ridden cesspools :P I can't stand pools because it's essentially the unflushed toilet of the public. There's really nasty shit in them..
Im a swimmer... The pool is the worst, never swim in a swimming pool... it’s full of little kids squealing, people are sweaty, people who are unhygienic, saliva is in there, earwax is in there, snot is in there and lastly... the biggest of all... PEE. 😂 I have training tonight.
I would not want to be you
Not so bad if its salt water
Lyssa Merchessa yes but clorain is in there
Lyssa Merchessa you forgot poop. and dead bodies. a public pool in the city I live near had a dead body in it for days and no one noticed, because it was so gross and dark.
I'm a swimmer this is all soooo accurate but don't forget the random clumps of hair and leaves and other random things. I've also seen the plastic part of tampons way too many times
Does this channel have a bad history with Australia or something? Like what did we do wrong?
With the Fraser Island one.. it’s correct that they don’t let you swim in the sea but there are beautiful natural lakes and rivers you can go in.. and the beaches are perfectly safe in the day.. the dingos tend to come out at night and only if they hear or smell food.. it’s an amazing island that everyone should visit regardless
interesting fun facts - but why do all these videos show clips of other places or movies. Its not just this channel all channels tend to do this - its the only thing i don't like about these videos.
I've noticed that too. But i don't think it's annoying.
I just want to see relevant images. If I was to shoot a documentary about life on mars - I am not going to use footage from The Martian - it then becomes FAKE media. Ever watch Transformers- they used the same reentry footage in like all 3 films
Every time I hear about lakes filled with toxic gas at it's bottom, I always think back to BBC's "Walking With Prehistoric Beasts" episode 1, "New Dawn" where the Ambulocetus was swimming in a lake that occasionally created large bubbles at it's surface. Releasing quanities of the toxic gas that was trapped in the lake. Before one night, the toxic gas was finally released from the lake bed and escaped. Killing many in a toxic cloud within I think, 50 meters in range of the lake from all sides. It's been a part of my childhood since I was 5, since I have the entire collection of BBC's "Prehistoric Earth; A Natural History".
LoL, get laid!
Gabe Perras No thank you, I enjoy being a virgin. Any who try to take it away will never experience sexual pleasures again. I think you can figure out what that means.
LoL, your a virgin!
Yes, 18 and still got the most precious thing ever. Also, it's supposed to be "you're" as it is "You" and "Are" combined to form one word. I also don't understand why it's considered a shame to be a virgin, it's something to be cherished, and I know I'm still pure. As I have stated before, any who try to take it away, will never experience any sexual pleasure again. If you didn't get the hint before, I refer to making that person a eunuch(If man) or barren(Female, remove the uterus and sew her private opening together).
LoL, you're also a grammar nerd! I don't think you need to worry about anyone "trying to take it away"
I went to Australia once and went for swimming at Fraser island. It was so beautiful, didn't see any scary animals beside rays.I wouldn't go there alone anyway.
The hell with going to Australia this summer
I was trying to overcome my fear of the ocean never mind
I once swam someone and this huge pink flat fish with two fins sticking out the water started swimming next to me
Reaper XVII same
Reaper XVII if ya all scared of the ocean you should come to croatia it is NOT ocean its SEA and its not even that deep no sharks no worries i love swimming there every summer
Billie Jean - I Agree, Croatia’s Coast Is Astonishing.
Mr. CWL 🤗🤗
There is a lake down the street from my grandpa’s house in Pennsylvania and there is about 100 dead bodies in it from the civil war and pollution
Wow
Cool
What's the lake called? And where in Pennsylvania?
Dom C Raps it would be just bones from the civil war because the body rots after so long
Yeah but I could probably go magnet fishing and find some cool stuff
How about enchanted river in hinatuan, surigao, Philippines???
im australian and i have never been biting by a spider and dingos are not at fraser island sharks don't always bite the jellyfish are there so i can't say anything about that
Dingoes are definitely at Frazer island but they won't come near you The rest is true though
“This is Australia there for you’ll meet unpleasant animals” THATS BS. AND THATS NATURE, GET USED TO IT YA BABY!
Cherrybomb Icecream Australia has the most dangerous snakes than any other place in the workd
Ikr. This guy. The place he’s talking about is awesome I’ve been there. And he’s complaining about spiders. Ooh a little spider how scary. He needs to go outside
You're so triggered
triggered
This is why I only swim in pools.
where the only threat is excess urine, chlorine and getting hit in the face with flying pool paraphernalia!
2tru
Don Mapp i live in finland and here is no dangerous water animals
The best place to swim!!
Ya I totally agree✋
theres a river near where i live and its fine but at a certain part there is an underwater cliff that goes incredibly deep and you cant see the bottom at all and before the cliff there is a ramp underwater and is made a loose slippery rocks. It is still fun to swim in but make sure there is someone with you always
There’s a waterway in England called the Bolton Strid, or just the Strid for short. It looks tranquil, but the currents are so strong that no one has ever been known to survive falling in.
Why isnt loot lake in this list?
Fortnite memes
LOL😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😁
Get out NOW
Yea who goes there and lives
Lucas Buttercups BLESS YOU
I have swam in Fraser Island also dingos are scared of humans usually and spiders aren’t everywhere
Icha Raee I bet this was copied and pasted. By the way, please fix your grammar.
Wow so many beautiful places
There is a lagoon in Huamuxtictlan, Guerrero that pulls inexperienced swimmers in.
The only place that I knew do not swim..is at the middle of the ocean
The Frazer island one was exaggerated. It’s not that bad and there’s not dingos and Spiders creeping round. Jeez
to be fair Fraser is one of the only places on earth to find pure bred dingos but ur right
Same with the mono it's ok to swim in since i did it like 20 times and always turned out fine(besides 1 really bad sunburn) and there was one near there that was turquoise color then L.A started dumping garbage, chemicals, etc. in it
Your right i live in Australia yeah it's dangerous but they over exaggerate it
It's actually a really go place, like no shit
Yeh I've lived in Australia my whole life and Frazer Island isn't that dangerous yes there are dingos and yes there are currents but all beaches have currents so come give Australia a break
The Wisconsin river. Seriously, so many people have drowned/gotten carried away by the current. Even experienced swimmers, boaters, and fishermen.
When I went to Hawaii, my family took me to the olivene pools in Maui. If you don't know what that is, it is an all naturally made pool below a cliff surrounded by rocks so that the waves wouldn't come through to the pool. I recommend looking up pictures of it bc it was rly cool. However, while I was in the pool with my family there were numerous times when the waves would be too big and would splash over the rocks. It. Was. Terrifying. Also, on the way to the pool I noticed a memorial for a guy who stood on one of the rocks when a wave came and his body was never found (rip) so yeah I would not recommend the olivene pools in Maui
The bacteria one literally applies to most bodies of water in China and India.
my first time swimming in the ocean at the beach, i swam really far, and i looked below me and i saw the drop-off. I HAD A HEART ATTACK AND ALMOST DROWNED BECAUSE OF HOW SCARED I WAS ( I had to get rescue by a life guard. )
thats bad
SoggyWafflez lmao that’s pretty scary. When I went to Barbados I never ended up going very far with the deepest drop being like 40 cm even though I’m a strong swimmer
Drop offs are legit terrifying. Glad you're ok
SoggyWafflez you idiot. The NUMBER ONE RULE OF SWIMMING IS NEVER, AND I MEAN *NEVER* PANIC!
@@doommaximus6388 yeah
So their saying Australia 🇦🇺 is basically so don’t go there, RUDE. Me as an Australian is offended 😤😤😤
I'm Australian and IT IS not that bad
Fiji is fine to because there are shark attacks everywhere
XxKKitKaTTxX KitKat. YOU AND ME BOTH OZZY OZZY OZZY!
Why are you offended??? It just made Australia look really cool to me and now I really want to visit it.
I totally agree what is so bad about our country
I have dived many blue holes and i agree they can be dangerous if you dont plan the dive but you can say that about any dive location as they can all be fatal and experience doesnt mean anything either as i used to know a few dive instructors and dive masters that have alot of experience and they are no longer alive anymore due to something going wrong on a dive. So its down to just being careful and planning and then all you have to do is enjoy the experience.
Omg wth I’m really annoyed because all these idiots say Australia is SOOO DANGEROUS like yes there is dangerous animals but the chance of ever even seeing them 1% literally it’s a safe country it’s amazing actually so COME TO AUSTRALIA💗😄
Sharni Hughes Animals in Australia kill* about 5 people per year.
Sharni Hughes you’re right Australia is actually really safe especially how strict border control is!
New Smyrna beach Florida is probably just as dangerous as any Australian beach. Nurse sharks abound in the coastal waters. Many people have been bitten (not killed though). Then there are the rip tides which have killed a few people.
What about spiders and snakes?!
memo well the spiders u see are usually little like the type of little ones u see.Also the ones you see on the internet are over exaggerating and I’ve like never been in contact with a snake before so it’s still quite safe
Far out what do you think australia is 😂there are no spiders on the beach and a dingo is a rarity
Ye, he is CRAZY! He's makin Australia seem terrible!
Mate welcome to Australia!!! Sharks are very were in Australia and jellyfish! Crickey mate!
1# should be Red Tide. O wait, so soon we can’t swim at all because no one knows how to take care of the earth
5:36 There's no fish because HOW would they get there? If the lake is being filled by underground streams of course there would be no fish.. How about someone tries stocking that lake and see what happens?
In my experience of fishing fish are never at the top always at the very bottom nomatter how deep so maybe if the got a boat and a sea fishing pole maybe the is
They actually did multiple attempts to populate the lake with different kinds of fish, but the fish fail to procreate
Jurjen van der Hoek they die because their is no food supply for the fish in the lake
Jurjen van der Hoek and birds dont go near it because their are no fish to eat
Bc fish wouldve evolved there, how do fish get in lakes with small exits and enterances?
Blue lake is actually 77 metres deep and is a crater and so many people have found the bottom
There are a number of lakes with this name. He means this one in Russia: todiscoverrussia.com/blue-lake-in-russia-kabardino-balkaria-tserik-kel/ earth-chronicles.com/anomalies/the-mystery-of-the-blue-lake-in-kabardino-balkaria.html A friend of mine is one of the world's foremost cave divers, he's one of the 3 lead divers of a team who have been pushing the world's furthest cave diving penetration, last I heard it was up to about 11,000m, almost all of it underwater. If you're interested here's a link to a video from their 2013 trip (can't find a more recent one) vimeo.com/73807131
Wildwood falls, cottage grove oregon. It's about 35 ish foot waterfall with a cave behind it. And someone dies swimming up there damn near every year. It's beyond gorgeous, though
4:00 what movie is this from?
Why not loot lake they said tryhard johnwicks live there
Myth are you actually myth
Griffen The gamer No lmao
Legend has it Ali a lives here
Myth and
LOL
So I can go ahead and jump into the Bermuda triangle??????
It's really just media wanting money. That stretch of ocean has the same disappearances as any other place once you think about it
Bruh I was just thinkin bout the bermuda triangle and bout to look it up then i saw this comment
Natalia Ludzik Yes you can unless, your made out metal. It supposedly has a magnetic force which changes the direction of a compass which confuses pilots and ship captains.
Are you sure? I thought the magnetic pull thing was in a lake in Asia.
IKR LMAO XD
The Australian one it might happen in some parts of Australia but when ur on the west side of Australia like right on the far west the beaches there are really good
A fan from FIJI ......🏝🏝🏝
I always go to Frazer island for holidays and I have never got hurt!!
Paula Bamford you made it out alive no way hahaha
Bahah marine crocodiles, never fucking seen one in my life. I’d be worried about crocs any other place than Frazer
I've been swimming in a blue hole in Tennessee. They're cold and the scariest part is that you can't even really see your feet under you. They are really pretty though even if it is dark. A lot of people dived off a ledge near the top. This definitely isn't a place to swim if you aren't willing to go out of your comfort zone though or if the unknown or not being able to see under you scares you.
The Mighty China Wheres the blue hole?
FracturedSoul Elizabethton, Tennessee
I went to a quarry like that but it's illegal
I live in Memphis Tennessee I’ve never heard of blue holes ever ever around here
The Mighty China *****^*^*^
Well i can swim in my bath 👍 thats a Gud idea
Also don’t swim in Lake Lanier in Georgia. That lake is cursed.
Why
Why is it cursed what is the story x
