15 Strangest Bodies of Water

The ocean makes up about 71% of our planet. And while we can look at that as one massive body of water instead of multiple oceans divided by man-made boundaries, not all bodies of water are the same. Some bodies are saltier than others, causing us to seemingly walk on water, while some contain zero salt, allowing us to see for miles beneath the surface. And some bodies of water exist… underwater! So join us for today’s video, as we count down the 15 strangest bodies of water that exist in nature!

The Strid should be one of top 5.

[@samanthadrennan]

I kept waiting for it to come up!

[@eudaenomic]

The strid is a very dangerous stream that kills all who jump in. It must be cavernous underneath. I've seen most of what the Jack a Snacks channel has shown, but he is limited by funds.

[@GM-gg9db]

An acidic lake has a “caustic nature”? Got a chuckle over that. 🧪

[@joeylawn36111]

You're not Neutral on the subject either....oh well, I guess it's just a pHase.... 😉🙃🤣

[@anthonycade9034]

On that first one…even the insects and birds were dead. There are remnants of the village being on the top of the hills from long ago. This suggests that the locals there knew about the danger but it didn’t get passed on, and history repeated itself.

[@NeidalRuekk]

Lake Nyos actually has two 'relatives'. Lake Monoun is about the same size as Nyos, and both of these lakes are safely de-gassed. But the third lake, Lake Kivu, is over 2000 times the size of Nyos, millions live around its' shores, and a volcano with unusually fluid lava is poised to erupt and send a lethal flow into Lake Kivu, potentially killing tens of thousands.

[@anthonycade9034]

@ did you know about the hot springs in South America that are unknown geothermal…thousands of miles away from any volcanic activity?

[@NeidalRuekk]

@@anthonycade9034 I didn't. It is possible that there's a magma plume nearby that is too weak to pierce the crust with volcanic activity but is more than enough to heat the water in this way. Just a thought

[@vincek6613]

The great salt lake in Utah also has a pink section in the north like the other lakes mentioned here

[@Voiceofreason-l5c]

I live a few miles away from there, and was unaware of that fact until flying over it. Lol. It's crazy how many of us travel across the world, when there are so many things we don't explore in our own regions. (For example, I've been to Jellyfish Lake in Palau, included on this list, but had never visited the Great Salk Lake until a relative from Florida wanted me to take her there. Lol.)

[@joeylawn36111]

7:56 If divers go into the lower layer, they had better hope that all the hydrogen sulfide washes off of them before they leave the water altogether, as that gas is Deadly....

[@bradbrown8759]

Awsome waters. Natures favorite toy. The Strid is another wonder waters. Very good video.

I was expecting to see that one.

So why doesn't the dye show up down stream of Devils Kettle? If it did rejoin the river, then where did the dye go? I think there needs to be more research done.

[@altercard5389]

Probably gets diluted, that or they didn't bother looking

[@misspat7555]

@@altercard5389I’m guessing it’s the second one; they assumed it didn’t reconnect shortly downstream, and so didn’t bother checking downstream on the same river. D’oh! 🤦‍♀️

[@SabrinaZabita]

​@@misspat7555they did this research. The dye was diluted. Your research was a few minutes of a KZbin video, they are professionals driven by curiosity and scientific prestige. You're not considering anything that someone on the team didn't consider and test in 2015.

[@melissastapleton1403]

It doesn't show up because the Devil's Kettle leads to the ocean, entirely separate from the 😊 other water going over top of the rock as a traditional waterfall.....

[@joeylawn36111]

I'm guessing that they didn't (and probably couldn't) use enough dye.

[@blauemadeleine]

Great video, thank you. Rio Hamza... fascinating. And Lake Baikal, it was one of the dreams of my life, to travel on the Transsiberian railway and to visit Lake Baikal. Alas... It will not happen. 😢

[@brettbarager9101]

I was surprised you didn't mention the "ocean beneath earth's crust." That is the collection of water inside a specific kind of rock; it is greater than all of the surface water at present.

[@tcf70tyrannosapiensbonsai]

Besides that, a very interesting episode!

[@OpenThisGate87]

Kawah Ijen; I'm sorry but something cannot simultaneously be caustic and acidic these 2 properties are opposite.

[@tazmirhasanovic7191]

27:12 is definitely my favourite lake

[@The_Pariah]

@7:08 - Pro tip: If you get in your prawn suit you can get nickel and sulfur chunks from inside that the hazy area. But watch out for the leviathan ghost that hangs out around that area.

[@missmandy67]

If the Devil's Kettle is really diverting down to join the other River where is all of the stuff that they put in there. Where's the logs and the ping pong balls and all of that

[@stipy5916]

Down in some cave with air in it, the logs , ping pong balls rise when they get there. The water continue at a lower level tunnel. My guess....

[@missmandy67]

@@stipy5916 well ping pong balls don't usually sink and what are the odds that everything they send down disappears. Everything. Nothing has been seen to come through. That is too strange

[@wardarcade7452]

How about the Casiquiari Canal in southern Venezuela and northern Brazil a 210 mile (340 km.) waterway that actually links the Orinoco River system with the Rio Negro/Amazon River? Despite the name, it is actually a natural waterway but it uniquely links two opposite-flowing river systems and is believed to be the only natural waterway in the world that does this!

[@rymal93]

I'm pretty sure that the train going through the water wasn't scraping anything up .... surely it was delivering it elsewhere

[@Kruegernator123]

I didn't know Solid Snake became a nature narrator.

[@yoogeunjung336]

Kawah Ijen is in the Ijen Mountain Range, not on top of Merapi which stand next to it,, And 8:48 is clearly not Ijen Crater, that's Kelimutu Crater in East Nusa Tenggara province,,

​@@GilbertRezentes with a giant wall huh?

[@AG-yj1jv]

@topfives 2:15 You got the lesson wrong - it's NOT about being afraid of *every lake,* but learning to recognize risks and how to mitigate them - that sometimes "ancient wisdom" or superstitions are there for a reality-based reason that needs to be examined, tested, and understood because the ancestors maybe weren't as scientific, but they experienced things before and they wanted to protect their next generations. And if they're telling you something is "bad" for people, we should consider the hazzards...letsee...it's a former volcano. What hazards exist around lake volcanoes, and how can we mitigate them? Modern society likes to believe it is so advanced it can ignore the unknown - where ancient peoples respected it. If we are that advanced - we should have recognized the danger and acted on it.

[@SkiiDreamr420]

2:21 but you forgot to tell everyone that they've installed some special events to help let out the CO2 so that doesn't ever happen again
