Hidden city behind the bedroom wall!

In 1963, a resident of Cappadocia, Turkey, uncovered a mysterious room behind a wall in his home, leading to the rediscovery of Derinkuyu, an ancient underground city. Built primarily by the Phrygians, skilled Iron-Age architects from the 12th to the 7th century BC, this vast city was hidden for centuries beneath the surface. Over time, it was expanded by various civilizations, including the Byzantines. Derinkuyu, one of the largest of its kind, could shelter thousands of people and livestock, showcasing remarkable ancient engineering and resourcefulness.

Like a scene from a Terry Gilliam film, he tore down a wall in his house only to find a room beyond and then behind that, an entire city! Time Bandits for real! Anyone?

THE DEEP

There are things in the deep reaches of the oceans that frankly REALLY need to stay there . . . .

“Here in the Pacific, 200 metres down, we enter an alien world… This is a barreleye fish with a transparent head filled with jelly so that it can look up through its skull.” 

- Sir David Attenborough

No, I mean REALLY need to stay there . . . . . . . 

Terrifying Deep Sea Creatures to Feed your Nightmares

These weird and scary creatures were found at the deepest part of the world’s oceans located at The Mariana Trench. On March 26, 2012, film director James Cameron became the first person to reach the bottom of the Mariana Trench. These are just a few of the creatures that he found. Truly creepy.
