10 Scientifically Impossible
Places To Exist
When you think of amazing wonders of nature, you think of things like the Grand Canyon and Victoria
Falls. These landmarks, for all their beauty and majesty, kind of look possible. A waterfall may be
majestic, but it is certainly not a scientifically impossible structure, right?
Well, not all amazing landmarks are quite like that. There are some landmarks that are so impossible
that we don't even know how they could even exist in the first place. Seriously, these places defy human
and scientific imagination.
Follow us on a tour of the top ten most scientifically impossible places to exist.
#10 The Mystery Of Devil's Kettle Falls
Why on earth would a place be named Devil's Kettle? That sounds like an objectively terrible name. But
you'll soon learn why this place has to take on this bad name.
Devil's Kettle is in Minnesota and is on the north shore of Lake Superior. It's in Judge C.R. Magney State
Park, and the kettle is the main attraction of the falls.
The Devil's Kettle is basically a waterfall with a strange twist. At the falls, a river forks out of a rock
outcropping. One side of the waterfall tumbles down normally down a two-step stone embankment,
while another side of the waterfall tumbles down a deep hole and vanishes.
Forever.
Over the years, scientists have thrown all manner of things into this hole. Their mission, of course, is to
find where the water disappears to, but they've never found any of the items, and they've never found
where the other half of the waterfall goes to.
Now, the conundrum is this. The sheer volume of water pouring into the hole every day tells us that the
ground couldn't just be soaking it up. The water has to be going somewhere. Scientists have theorized
that the water may be forming an underground river.
But the fact remains that we simply don't know for sure. And we may never know the answer to this
mystery.

#9 The Toxicity Of Lake Karachay
Did you know that spending up to an hour at lake Karachay may actually kill you? Well, now you do. But
first, where's Lake Karachay, and why is it so deadly?
Lake Karachay is a Russian lake that is considered to be one of the most polluted places on the planet. If
you stood on the shore of the lake in 1990, you would be exposed to a dose of about 600 roentgen,
which is more than enough to kill you. Why is this lake so toxic though? Is it a natural occurrence, or was
there something more?
No, it's not natural, and there's a story. The lake is actually located within the Mayak production
association, a place known for being one of the largest and leakiest nuclear facilities in Russia. The entire
lake was kept secret by Russia till the 1990s, and it's a general belief is that the government was busy
dumping nuclear waste into the river throughout this period of invisibility.
Today, most of the lake has been covered with concrete, but it is still incredibly dangerous.

#8 The Light Of Kawah Ijen
In Indonesia, right near the side of a volcano, there lies a sulfur mine. The volcano has no risk of eruption
and is dormant, as far as we know at least. But at night, a remarkable thing happens in the mountain.
A neon blue substance spills down its side, looking like a river of lava— but a blue kind. However, as far
as we know, blue lava doesn't exist. When this phenomenon started manifesting, a lot of the locals were
scared. I mean, regular lava is scary enough but blue lava? Absolutely, not.
Apparently, this was caused by the sulphur being mined from within the volcano. Heat causes the
sulphur gas that is trapped inside to build up and escape, and this causes blue flames to shoot right into
the air. The gas then kind of liquefies then flows right down the mountain.
And that's what causes the blue lava.


#7 The Lights Of Hessdalen
In Norway, just over the Hessdalen valley, there's a unique phenomenon that locals have been seeing.
At night, locals often observe floating lights of white, yellow and red cross the night sky.

These lights have now been christened the Hessdalen lights, and they've been known to appear when
it's dark and can last from a few seconds to more than an hour. The lights are sometimes quite slow and
may seem to float in the midair, and at other times they could be really fast and may move at incredible
speeds.
