On October 9, 1780, the most powerful hurricane in history, the Great Hurricane, broke out
The hurricane was named San Calixto II. It killed all life for a week before subsiding. According to various estimates, about 27 thousand people living on the blooming islands of Haiti, Grenada, Martinique and dozens of others were killed.
The survivors of the nightmare recalled two things: because of the wind, they could not hear their own voices, and the voices of those around them. The wind and rain stripped the bark off the trees - this was recorded en masse in various places. Such an effect is possible if the wind speed reaches 320-350 km/h. That is, San Calixto II blew with the speed of a Formula 1 race car. It is known that the coastal villages on different islands were literally flooded with a wave of over 7 meters high.

Why old spiral staircases turn clockwise.
This is a tradition from the Middle Ages. The spiral staircases in the towers of medieval castles were built so that the ascent was clockwise.
The reason was that if the castle was overrun, the defenders had an advantage in a hand-to-hand fight on the stairs, because the right hand could strike the hardest blow.

The Palazzo Farnese in Rome was built around 1530. One of the decorations in the painted halls, besides the magnificent frescoes, was a detailed map of the world. The map is incredibly detailed, with riverbeds, cities, ports and landmarks.
It differs from what we are used to with Green Antarctica. on the map can everyone see? Well, Antarctica... A huge single continent made up of two Americas, where South America is connected to the flowering lands of Antarctica. And no Drake Strait!

In the 19th century, the stoves were heated with radium
In the castle, and later in the surrounding villages, explorers noticed the stoves. Slits on them were depicted in the form of a sign of radiation. Such stoves have a rather unusual structure. It almost makes no sense to heat them with coal, the fuel consumption is too high. Many models have no pipes at all, as if they did not need smoke extraction. On such stoves are also marked radium.
Huge rooms a stove with radium could heat, unlike any fireplace or wood burning stove.

This vase was made in ancient Assyria in the 8th century B.C.
It is made of amethyst, which is one of the most valuable varieties of quartz.
The uniqueness of the vase lies in several things at once.
Firstly, you can see its exquisite workmanship, not to mention the two holes in the sides. In our time, the creation of such products is not a problem, but how realistic it was to make such a vase 3000 years ago?
By the way, now look at the effort required to make amethyst:
1. Deburring.
2. Finishing with diamond grinding tools.
3. finishing with diamond paste
Grinding on the loose abrasive
5. Polishing with chrome oxide.
Another mystery is the shape. It resembles an egg, but the vase is stable on the surface.
How was it possible to achieve such balance and stability of the vase by hand processing?

Modern photos of ancient stone quarries allow us to see the smallest polished details, cuts, semicircular saw marks.
And how were these things made by people who had nothing but a hammer and a hammer?

Giants
Many archaeological finds around the world supposedly prove that the Earth was once inhabited by giants.
The photo shows the footprint of a giant's huge leg.
Do you think there really were giants?

The pyramid of Saint-André.
This ancient pyramid of Saint-André, over 50 meters high and 200 meters at its base, was located northeast of Nice, dating back to 4000 BC and was an important historical record of European civilization on the continent before the Roman Empire and the advent of Christianity.
However, despite its historical importance, the pyramid was completely demolished in the 1970s to make way for the freeway.

The photo shows modern attempts to transport stone blocks.
In human history, larger stones have been lifted and moved, such as the lower blocks of the Egyptian pyramids, the trilithons of Baalbek and Stonehenge. Where did the car driver go wrong? Judging by the denoscriptions of the transportation process in antiquity from our historians, modern people have the wrong tactics. They should have taken wooden skids, tied them with string and hauled them with a human engine. Then they would have had no problem getting the stone to the site.

Hanging Rock (Krasnoyarsk Territory).
One of the wonders of nature is located in the nature reserves "Ergaki" - a stone block weighing about 600 tons, as if frozen on the edge of a precipice.
The stone has been standing in such a rickety position for hundreds of years, and no one can figure out how it is holding on. Its whole appearance: the slope and the very small area of contact with the rock clearly show the instability of the position.

The sequoia is the largest tree on earth, and the longest-lived - according to various reports, it has lived from 2,000 to 6,000 years: more than all known ancient, middle and new human history today. Some sequoias are centuries older than the Egyptian pyramids.

Parkas' elongated skulls were finally sent for DNA analysis. Let me tell you right away that they turned out to be human. Although no alien DNA was found in the skulls, the results were able to stump scientific traditionalists.
All the skulls belonged to the Native Americans, but in the DNA found traces of haplogroups that lived in the Black and Caspian Seas, and in the foothills of the Caucasus. How the ancestors of the Indians 3,000 years ago crossed the Bering Strait and reached the Pacific coast of South America, scientists are not specified.
As, indeed, it is not specified why the volume of the Indian skull is 1.5 times larger than usual, there is no sagittal suture and traces of artificial deformation.

A descendant of the giants, 1925
This photograph was taken by Martin Chambi Jimenez, one of the first known indigenous photographers of Latin America.
He was recognized for the profound historical and ethnic documentary value of his photographs.
The photo shows a tall man, a native of the southern highlands of the province of Paruro, and the photographer himself. This race of tall people, inhabited parts of the Amazon forests no more than a few centuries ago.
The skeletons found in those places "show no signs of diseases, such as growth hormone problems, which are common in most cases of gigantism. On all the skeletons, the joints were healthy and the lung cavity was large. Most of the skeletons have all the hallmarks of old age and natural death from old age," British anthropologist Russell Dement.

Bill Gates-funded lab breeds 30 million mosquitoes a week for release in 11 countries
Scientists work in sweltering laboratories in Medellin, breeding 30 million genetically modified mosquitoes each week. The insects grow from larvae to pupae and adults, they are kept at the right temperature and fed generously with fishmeal, sugar and, of course, blood. They are then released into the wild in 11 countries.
Bill Gates, who is funding the project, assures us, "The mosquitoes being released are not terrorizing the locals. They help save and improve millions of lives."
Just as his "coronavirus vaccines" have "saved" millions of lives, and his previous vaccination projects have left thousands of women in India and Kenya barren. Or his polio vaccines, which caused paralysis, seizures and febrile convulsions in sub-Saharan Africa, Afghanistan, Congo and the Philippines.
