Top Ten Dangerous Road in the World

How we determine the road is dangerous?

A) Lots of hazards that may appear in many different forms; 

for instance, poor weather, drunk drivers, 

and simple human error can all complicate an otherwise uneventful journey. 

B) On the other hand, 

sometimes the condition of the road itself can put your life in jeopardy.

Some of the following roads appear normal, 

but actually have high death rates. 

Others just look outrageously insane. 

C) Some roads fall into both categories.

This list is dedicated to all the white-knuckled, terrified drivers who are forced to brave dangerous roads – and to all the crazies who navigate them for fun.

10. Grand Trunk Road (India)

GT is considered dangerous NOT because of risky heights or disheartening road conditions, 

but because of the traffic congestion. 

Trucks, buses, bicycles, pedestrians, and animals have turned parts of this heavily-used road into a major headache.

9. San Isidro de General – Cartago (Costa Rica)

8. Sichuan - Tibet Highway (China)

7. Skippers Road (New Zealand)

6. Halsema Highway (Philippines) 

5. Patiopoulo Perdikaki road (Greece) 

4. Luxor – al – Hurghada Road (Egypt)

NO PICTURE *SORRY*

3. Fairy Meadows Road (Pakistan)

2. Nairobi – Nakuru – Eldoret Highway (Kenya)

As anyone who’s ever driven a car before knows, a road can qualify as dangerous without having muddy, hairpin turns thousands of feet in the air. People die on roads around the world because of other irresponsible drivers, and that’s why this road in Kenya made it onto the list. It looks like a decent place to drive, but speeding, unsafe passing attempts, and drunk driving have inflated the death toll to over 300 every year.

In other words, you might actually have a better chance of surviving on one of those precarious mountain roads.

1. Old Yungas Road (Bolivia)

According to the Association for Safe International Road Travel, the title for World’s Most Dangerous Road goes to Bolivia’s old Yungas Road, which twists and turns for about 40 miles between the capital city of La Paz and the town of Coroico in the Yungas jungle region. If other roads seem risky, the old Yungas Road is nothing less than a suicide mission.

Built in the 1930s by Paraguayan prisoners of war, the Yungas Road was until recently the main route from La Paz to Bolivia’s northern Amazon rainforest region. Dropping nearly 12,000 feet in overall elevation, the road is extremely narrow, subject to frequent landslides and fog, and offers no protection from the sheer cliffs that drop straight down for a couple thousand feet. Before a modernized and safer route was completed in 2006, somewhere between 100-200 fatalities occurred every year, and the roadside is presently littered with crosses and memorials. For obvious reasons, locals have given it a simple yet somber nickname – Death Road.

By the way, there are quite a few companies in La Paz that offer extreme bike tours of the Yungas Road for adventure seekers. If you like teasing death, then this is the road for you.

What is this?

What is this strange creature?

So cute right?

The octopuses of the genus Grimpoteuthis are also known as “Dumbo octopuses” 

The name comes from the ear-like fins protruding from the top of their “heads” (actually bodies), resembling the ears of Walt Disney’s flying elephant. 

They are benthic creatures, living at extreme depths, 

and are some of the rarest of the Octopoda species. 

They can flush the transparent layer of their skin at will, 

and are open ocean animals, unlike most octopi.

The Key Card Hotel

The Key Card Hotel in New York is built out of 200 000 card keys. Every room and every wall, even the toilet are made out of card keys. The hotel is made by Bryan Berg, who has the world record in card house building.

 

Marketing Tips

A professor was explaining marketing concepts to the Students:-

1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!" 

-That's Direct Marketing

2. You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says: "He's very rich. Marry him." 

-That'sAdvertising

3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day, you call and say: "Hi, I'm very rich. Marry me." 

-That'sTelemarketing

4. You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl. You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink, you open the door (of the car) for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her a ride and then say: "By the way, I'm rich. Will you marry me?" 

-That'sPublic Relations
