8. Schitovaya Bukhta – Russia


Schitovaya Bukhta is known to be one of thegreatest surfing spots in the world but unfortunately there are also numerous military facilities based here. Because of this, surfers need to apply for a permit to ride the waves and secondly one of these bases houses old nuclear submarines which leak radiation.

I think these people offended sango

maybe sango lives there :p

7. Bikini Atoll – US Marshall Islands

Bikini Atoll has a high amount of marine life making it a great place to dive and it has also been made a Unesco World Heritage Site. But despite it’s beauty there are also dangers.The seas are shark infested and it was oncea testing ground for nuclear weapons between 1946 to 1958. Around 20 nuclear bombs were set off on the islands infecting the area with radiation. The government hassince declared the area safe but do you still want to visit there?

6. Chowpatty Beach – India

Chowpatty Beach is India’s most famous beach but it is also one of the most pollutedin the world too. Every year hundreds of Mumbai residents celebrate the Hindu festival of Ganesha Chaturthi on the beach and it’s a tradition to wash their idols of Lord Ganapati in the sea.But as the waters and beach are so disgusting the chances of catching something here are highly likely.

5. Volusia County – Florida

Florida was in the headlines as it had the highest amount of shark attacks in 2013. There have been more shark sightings off the coast of Volusia County than in the entire South African region, which is notorious for its shark habitat. While most shark attacks in Florida are not fatal it still puts you off wanting to take a dip.But it’s not just sharks that are a threat, Florida also has the highest fatalities from lightening strikes in North America too. Guess you are not safe in the water or on the beach.

4. Gansbaai – South Africa

Gansbaai has so many white sharks in the waters that it has become a tourist attraction for adventure seekers. You can feed the mighty beasts and if courageous enough can take a swim with them too. Of course you’ll be given a shark proof cage for safety otherwise you’ll be their food.

3. Fraser Island – Australia


Sadly Fraser Island is a paradise that is forbidden to people as the seas are home todangerous jellyfish and sharks. The beach is just as dangerous too as the island is home to some of the world’s deadliest spiders and a few large crocodiles too. Is this piece of paradise really worth the risk?

2. Playa Zipolite – Mexico

Mexico is home to Cancun Beach which has been voted the most beautiful in the world but it is also home to one of the most deadliest beaches too. The name of the beach supposedly translates to “beach of the dead” which alone should put off visiting here but it still has a large amount of tourists visiting every year.Playa Zipolite looks like paradise and can put you into a false sense of security, a dip into the luscious blue sea could end up being your last as the waves are huge which result in dangerous undercurrents. So many people have died on this beach that a special lifeguard team have been stationed here, thanks to these heroes the number of drownings has declined over the years

1. Kilauea – Hawaii


Hawaii is famous for amazing beaches, big waves, and perfect sunbathing weather but it’s not without it’s dangers. Hawaii also hasnumerous volcanoes with Mt. Kilauea beingthe most active. The sand on the Kilauea beach is black from volcanic ash and while it may be an amazing place to visit, there is still the danger of the volcano erupting. Especially when you consider that it has been active since 1983, it should make you think twice about visiting here.

#3.Empathy: is the ability to feel when others are going through. (psychopaths lack empathy)

Nobody likes to be labeled a psychopath who lacks empathy(even if you are one). So when you tell any girl that you like her for being able to feel for people beyond her self makes em happy. give her instances you have notice her feel for someone else.

#2.You are intelligent: every bimbo loves to think and be told that she is intelligent. trust me she will appreciate it when you tell her she is intelligent. if na lie ask your bae

#1.You are beautiful: every girl loves to be told "you are beautiful" even if she is a little less than average beauty wise. telling her she is beautiful helps you score a little more points when trying to defend your love for her.
