The 5 most dangerous places on earth

If you still do not know where to go on vacations, take note because you will love all this places!

5. Bikini Atoll

Looking at that image no one would think this is a dangerous place, right? Maybe what makes this place so dangerous is the volcano that is just above but no, the reason is a lot more stupid. In 1946 United States chose this atoll as a nuclear test field to drop 23 nuclear bombs! That caused the destruction of 3 of the islands and left a radiation that even today it's impossible to live here, we have to wait minimun to 2023 for someone to live here again. Unti now the island is completely inhabited.

4. Yungas Road

When this road is also known as "The Death Road" you already know what you can expect. The Yungas Road is the world's most dangerous highway because obvious reasons, around 100 people per year die here, that means that this road is comparable to one of the cities with most murders in the world I guess that's why they called it "The Death Road" in that case it has a lot of sense, you just have to look at images and see the conditions of the road, you won't even think to walk there and a lot less drive, because the road at some points tilts dangerously making more accidents happen than desired, even in some cases the cars will fall down the ravine. Just like al this is not enough, the transit is double way, what may seem impossible as one car can barely fit in the highway, what a madness! Currently The Yungas Road is a tourist attraction since if the people want they can go by an alternative road that has been made a long time ago nevertheless the deaths remains happening because the road conditions has not been modified and even existing the existence of that alternative road there is still people that prefer the normal one, maybe because of the adventure, maybe because of the landscape or maybe because of the adrenaline.

3. Danakil Desert

On this list I didn't want to include places that due to natural conditions are dangerous but because of this desert I make an exception as being the world's cruelest place according to National Geographic, known also as "Hell in Earth". This place has the highest temperature in the planet getting to be from 50 to 60 degrees, surrounding it there are two volcanos that remain active, when there is wind the ashes spread all over the place and the sand is so hot that it burns the skin if the sun has not done it before. This desert is incredibly cruel, that's why it surprises so much knowing that a tribe lives in here, this people lives from the salt commercialization that is extracted from the mines in the desert, those small salt pools are the only things that this desert has to offer.

2. Mount Huashan

The deal with this mountain is not normal, the Mount Huashan in China is famous for being the most dangerous tourist route, despite everything is made with some safety, along the route there are some rails where the harness is fastened and that is all the safety you are going to have the rest is chain hanging, some wooded planks, holes in the wall and irons crossing the rock tha helps as stair, the harness is used only in the dangeroust zone and despite it offers some safetiness it only depends on you, for example If you decide to unhook the two only strings that can save your life at the same time the guides that are around the mountain can not do anything, as much in the middle of the way they can help you if someone enters in panic at any given moment, by the way the harness that we are talking about is not specially made to hold a body that is falling, the way this assumption is made it would come off very easily if that person has no where to hang so it is not a real safetiness.

1. The Island of Snakes

During XVIII and IXX centuries those condemned to death who were near the island could choose to die by hanging or go to this island full of snakes capable of killing in a few hours, they were aware of the danger that was supposed to go, that they knew that sooner or later they would end up dying, currently It is still the same, the danger of the island is so high that they do not let anyone visit it, except in special cases like for example to make a documentary or to investigate the conditions of the environment as well as the snakes, and even with those who are accompanied by people who have been there and know the island, like guides, it does not mean they are safe, the island is stupidly deadly and there are people who are In charge of keeping it that way, even if it seems lie, when they say that the island is full of these snakes it is not an exaggeration the whole surface is full of them, hidden waiting with patience that a prey is close enough to attack, after the bite, the poison acts with In relative rapidity, the person begins to feel painful cramps that are expanding throughout the body, muscles weaken and vomiting begins, at this point the sight and balance are useless so the person dies between vomiting and pure pain
