water is fun water is refreshing but water can also be quite dangerous if you've seen our other videos you'll know by now that we love water parks and I'm always down for a swim in random pools around the world whether the natural or man-made it's always fun to go for a dip in the water especially if you're like me and you live in a hot place okay Tucson Arizona sucks but sometimes bounties of water can be misleading and what seems like a fun and adventurous journey to a swimming hole can turn into a tragedy if we go to the wrong spot today we're gonna be looking at ten places you should never swim it doesn't matter how exhausted or overheated you are you will want to stay away from these waters at all costs of course some of you might be adventurous and you might have some experience swimming at dangerous spots but you're going to find that these places are absolutely a no-go regardless of how brave you are when you make it at the top of the list you'll see a place that you'll definitely have to stay away from unless you want to go for the last difficult life of course with all that said and done let's begin shall we number 10 the Ganges River India millions of Hindus will be swimming in the Ganges this week for the annual Magh Mela festival the Industrial Age definitely brought a great advantage to humanity but with all good things we also get some bad ones and in the case of India you can see that in the Ganges River what once was a beautiful and powerful stream of water coming down from the Himalayan mountains is now a polluted river full of all sorts of garbages and other disposals that came as a result of the industrialization of the area surely the river has played an important role in growing the economy of the country but it has also become one of the most dangerous places to swim at so if you're used to swimming in rivers make sure you don't dive into this one just enjoy it from afar and explore other cool things that India has to offer number nine Queensland Australia I wish I didn't have to put Queensland on this list after all this is the place where you can find some of the most impressive gifts from nature such as the Great Barrier Reef and on top of that you also have the Whitsunday Islands and some of the most beautiful beaches you could ever see in your life and while it is Australia's second largest territory it is also one of the places with the most deadly creatures in the world saltwater crocs stone fish sharks blue ringed octopus and box jellyfish if you've watched our videos about dangerous animals which there are many you'll know that these are some of the creatures you want to avoid at all costs and unfortunately Queensland is the place where you can find all of them it's like a big old mixture cocktail of madness you'll even see some signs along the coast that warn you about possible encounters you might have with these animals number eight Sam Mason whole Thailand if you love exotic experiences out of your comfort zone with some of the kindest people in the world you'll definitely want to check out Thailand great food breathtaking landscapes and a lot of cultural heritage this country has a lot to offer for all kinds of travelers now if you're not used to hot weather you will find its heat a bit overwhelming but there is nothing that a trip to the beach can't fix especially when they have some of the best ones in the world but whatever you decide to do in this amazing country and just make sure you stay away from the summation hole this spot is one of the deepest areas to dive in and all the country so deep that you won't be able to see anything once you get closer to the bottom and as a result you're likely to get lost in an underwater dark world especially if you're not an experienced swimmer this confusion would make it harder for you to find your way up and ultimately lead to the end of your life number seven ganz BAE's South Africa the windswept waves of South Africa's southern Cape indicate that winter has arrived and winter means shark season also known as gans Bay or gangs Bay this fishing town is also the coast of South Africa it is popular among tourists who want to spot some whales but it's also known for its high density of white sharks in the waters nearby while some tourists enjoy playing near the sharks even going as far as getting inside cages and going underwater to see these deadly beasts some people have decided to stay away and focus on other activities and that is because gans Bay has been the scenario of many shark attack induced deaths the boys even got its own nickname people call it the shark alley while there are some other places in the world where white sharks gather gans Bay is the location where you are most likely to get attacked by one of the beasts so keep that in mind if you ever make it began spay enjoy the whale and shark watching but maybe don't swim in the waters number 6 the Gulf Coast USA the coastline along the southern part of the United States is one of the most important economic hubs in the country along this area you can find big cities like Baton Rouge New Orleans Biloxi Corpus Christi Tampa and the largest of them all Houston Texas having access to water you might think that it's easy for the people living in this area to go for a swim anytime they want but that's not necessarily true I mean I'm sure they have pools lakes or other cool places where they can go for a quick dip but the Gulf Coast is definitely not one of those places first of all the water in the Gulf is very hot so it won't make any difference whether you stay inside or outside the water it'll still just be hot also these waters are home to some deadly animals including snakes and I don't know if you're aware of this but snakes can actually swim what's even more strange and scary about this is that some of the snakes found in the Gulf are rattlesnakes and I know that a bite from a rattlesnake is rarely deadly but if one of these animals didn't survive in the waters I can only imagine what other creatures might be deep down there number five the Potomac River USA believe it or not one of the deadliest stretches of water is right here in our own backyard the Potomac River Gorge and the Great Falls of the Potomac rivers are usually places that inspire peacefulness and calmness they can be very relaxing and they're the perfect escape from the stress of everyday life especially for people who live so close to them and when wonders are a bit more rough rivers becomes a perfect place for some whitewater rafting or other adventurous things but whatever you decide to do in rough waters I just hope it's not swimming the PATA mad river is a great example of what could happen to you if you decide to do that in this river which is located between West Virginia and Maryland you will find some rapids that can easily pull you down to the bottom of the river the water pressure will make it difficult for you to breathe and eventually that will keep you from finding your way out so perhaps this is not the place to swim without the proper gear maybe a picnic on the shore and dipping your feet will be enough for a cool outdoor activity number 4 Blue Lake Russia blue waters are generally appealing and luring the more blue a body of water is the cleaner we think it is but the Blue Lake Inn cover Edina beccaria Russia is a bit different than other Blue Lakes you've seen before this one has grabbed the attention of scientists and people in general due to the blue color that comes from the high amounts of hydrogen sulfide in it but what's more interesting about it all is that it doesn't matter how interesting this place is people have still not been able to explore the bottom of the lake for that reason people have decided that it's best not to swim in it since no one knows for sure what kind of creatures might be living at the mysterious bottom of these waters it's a strange mystery that much is for sure and while we let experts figure out what's happening at the bottom of this lake it's better if we find another place to swim number three lake key vu Rwanda Lake EVOO in Rwanda is one of East Africa's great lakes white key who is part of the African Great Lakes and is located between the borders of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo due to its geographical position it has been the scenario of some of the most important historical moments of the continent this was especially true in the 19th century when different groups were fighting for power but another interesting fact about this lake is that it is considered one of the most dangerous in the world due to its explosive nature in other words this lake tends to erupt from time to time and that is because its ground is unstable and influenced by the movements of a volcano in the area now an erupting leg doesn't mean that it's going to blow you up into pieces if you're swimming in it instead Leakey who releases plenty of carbon dioxide into the air and if you know about chemistry and humans and you will know that co2 is a substance we should stay away from it's kind of why we have carbon dioxide alarms now it's time for the day's best pic the picture I have for today shows a big and threatening wave and what appears to be one of the worst serving experiences for the people in this picture let's check out one of the most dangerous places for surfing and swimming number two Puerto Escondido Mexico florid Oh Escondido has what many people consider to be the heaviest speech break in the world this sounds like a dream for all those adventurous surfers who want to put their ability to the limit but beware if you don't have the skills to endure this type of wave you might find yourself carried away by some powerful undercurrent in fact just making it to the spot where the waves break is already an accomplishment people who have been here say that paddling out to catch waves is already good thing you can celebrate as it's not an easy task to make it that far into the ocean and being able to catch more than one wave in a single day is also quite rare all of those who managed to do it can say they survived one of the deadliest waves in the world this spot has claimed the lives of many people including kite surfers professional surfers and regular tourists it surely looks like a beautiful and impressive place that I would like to visit but I'm not sure I would like to go that far from the shore I saved the best for last but first I have a quick challenge that takes 45 seconds 53 if you can leave it like and subscribe within the next 5 seconds you'll get 10 years of amazing look just try it whose really work number one nyira gong go a Democratic Republic of Congo the place at the top of the list is not the one that you wouldn't necessarily visit because you need to cool off instead this is a place you'd likely visit if you're feeling cold just like when you look for hot springs in the cold mountains however do not mistake these hot waters for hot springs the nyira gongo is in fact home to one of the hottest swimming holes on earth but those holes are also considered part of the largest lava pit in the entire world so unless you want to boil yourself to death you might not want to make use of these swimming holes not only is it dangerous for its lava but the place also releases plenty of toxic substances that will make you suffocate as soon as you inhale them in fact you don't even need to get inside the lake to get these substances into your system you could catch them just by hanging around the shore it sounds like swimming is not always that fun after all especially when we come across dangerous places like the ones I showed you on this list are they scary enough for you or are you feeling like you want to go check them out as soon as you get a chance let us know in the comment section down below hello to see what you all think with all that said and done I'll see you all next later everybody
