This island actually exists, and traveling to it is unlawful and involves many dangers.

Did you hear about the spooky discovery in Poland? Archaeologists found a 400-year-old "vampire burial"! The skeleton was buried with a sickle placed across its neck, which people back then thought would stop a "vampire" from rising from the dead. There was also a padlock on the skeleton’s toe, another creepy precaution to keep it in the grave. Historians believe it was more about superstition than real vampires—probably a way to deal with fear during tough times like plagues. It’s wild to think how much folklore shaped burial practices back then, right?

Our planet is home to many mysterious places you won't want to visit because it would be too dangerous, or the local population wouldn't welcome you. The Javarri Valley in Brazil is an untouched jungled area of 33 thousand square miles, slightly larger than Austria. It’s illegal for outsiders to enter this area, as contact with outside humans would be volatile to the natives' health. Heard Island is an offshore territory of Australia, 80% of it is covered in ice, and it has the country’s only active volcanoes. Here's your unique chance to see this and other territories around the world where you can't travel without a special permit.

Imagine a volcano that’s been snoozing since the Stone Age—thousands of years ago—and now it’s waking up! Scientists have recently noticed signs like rumbling earthquakes, steam, or small eruptions from this once-dormant giant. It’s a big deal because dormant volcanoes can still erupt with a bang, and people living nearby could be in danger. Experts are keeping a close eye, using cool tools like satellites and sensors, to predict what might happen next. While it’s scary, it’s also a reminder of how alive and powerful our planet is. Nature doesn’t follow a strict schedule, so it’s always full of surprises!

In 2011, archaeologists rediscovered an ancient "gate to hell" in the city of Hierapolis, Turkey. This stone doorway leads to a small cave-like grotto and was once thought to be an entrance to the underworld. The gate, also called the Plutonium, sits above a fissure that releases deadly volcanic carbon dioxide (CO2). Visitors to the site in ancient times would see a visible mist of this gas rising from the ground. Even today, the area is dangerous—birds that fly too close to the gate suffocate from the toxic fumes. The city of Hierapolis is just one of many places on Earth where you aren't welcome, but can still check them out in our video.
