Soon the water begins to get dark as the sunlight can no longer penetrate through the ocean, but Ms Zecchini keeps swimming down. In the footage, relaxed Alessia, from Rome, Italy, can be seen calmly swimming to the base of the 107-meter rope as support divers surround her. Footage captures the diver reaching a platform and ripping off a tag from it before turning around and boosting upwards. After breaking the astonishing record she rapidly swims as fast as possible back to the surface to get air.

The map shows all the traveling that this eagle did in one year. The tracking device has saved all the locations the eagle has been to. The bird has crossed many countries in the Middle East, but it stayed clear of the Capsian and the Red sea.

Modified**** Eagles are majestic creatures not only because of their looks, but they’re also admired for their intelligence and incredible predatory skills. It’s no surprise that they are symbols of entire nations and countries, appear on national emblems, coins, and works of art. A man named Fahd Qash from Jizan region, Saudi Arabia found something unexpected in the swamp on his walk. What he found was a dead eagle with a tracking device around its neck. Upon closer inspection, the man saw that the device had the owner’s email on it. As it later turned out, the GPS has been fitted in Kazakhstan The tracking device has saved all the locations the eagle has been to. Turns out, scientists were doing an experiment where they attached GPS on supposedly 20 eagles and marked every single place they visited in one year. This bird has crossed many countries, but interestingly enough, it stayed clear of the sea. https://www.boredpanda.com/gps-tracks-eagle-movement-over-twenty-years/ Lalasticlala, Mynd44

In the north of Japan there’s Aomori City, home to 300,000 people. Blizzards and ice storms turn the nature/forest surrounding Aomori into a unique viewing. Icy Siberian winds sweep into Japan by bringing massive amounts of snow that pile up in unusual formations, proving that nature is a one-of-a-kind artist. Even though annual snow-cleaning costs around $30 million, the frozen wonderland that the snow creates here makes it more than worth it.

Even though accessible for few months only, the Snow Wall Walk is a huge tourism attraction with approximately 5000 daily visitors At its highest point the snow wall reaches as high as 55 ft (17 meters). An average round-trip ticket price for an adult costs around $40. In order to prepare this road for visitors, the Japanese use special snowplow trucks that are created precisely for this location.

Welcome to the majestic Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, just a few hours from Tokyo. It’s a part of the ‘Roof of Japan’, a mountain road across the Toyama and Nagano prefectures. Located North of Tokyo, on the so-called ‘Roof of Japan’, a 55- miles-long (90 km) route, the Snow Wall is easily the star of the show. Curious travelers can visit the sight for a very limited time only. In 2019, the snow corridor is open to pedestrians from April 15 to June 22. Once here, tourists can indulge in an hour’s walk through the icy passages. https://www.boredpanda.com/aomori-japan-snow-wall/?cexp_id=16288&cexp_var=0&_f=featured Lalasticlala, Mynd44

Joseph Avellino, 34, was charged with battery in the first degree and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child after what law enforcement believe to have been an altercation with the woman. Cross County Deputies responded to a residence around 4.20pm but deputies found the victim had already left in a vehicle. Partain said she was injured after turning up at Avellino's home near Wynne with her 14-year-old son and 15-year-old nephews to confront him about a theft. 'I told him, Joseph I don't want you on my property no more, this and that. And he was like, "Well I'm going to shoot ya'll",', Partain explained. '[He] was pointing the arrow at them and he fired a shot at one of them, and I pushed them out the way and I got hit,' she said. 'I think I was in shock because once I got hit I said, "I can't believe you almost shot that kid".'
