In 2020, a resident in the Philippines entered his garage only to find this bat hanging there.

Known as Flying Foxes, these creatures boast a wingspan of almost 6 feet, making them the largest bats on the planet.

Though extremely large, the bat in this photo looks larger than it is due to forced perspective.

Genghis Khan is one of the ancestors of the Turks and the founder of the Mongol Empire.

Genghis Khan, who did not lose any war during his reign, is considered one of the greatest military leaders in world history.

Khan summoned the city's leaders and told them,
“You have committed great sins. If you ask me what proof I have for these words, I say it is because I am the punishment of God. If you had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.”

17-year-old Juliane Koepcke was sucked out of an aeroplane after it was struck by a bolt of lightning.

She fell 2 miles to the ground, strapped to her seat and survived after she endured 10 days in the Amazon Jungle, 1971 Koepke and her mother were on LANSA Flight 508 when the plane was struck by lightning mid-flight and disintegrated.

Koepke was strapped to her seat when she fell 3KM from the sky.

It is speculated that winds during the thunderstorm and the foliage in the jungle helped lessen the impact and the seat she was strapped into.

Koepke had broken her collarbone and had a wound on her right arm. She survived for 10 days in the jungle and had to endure maggots infesting her arm and severe bug bites. She followed a river and found a boat hut where she found other people.

She ate candy found in the wreck for food. Sadly, her mother did not survive. 14 others initially survived the crash but did not survive while waiting for emergency services.

Koepke was rescued from the jungle and went on to study mammology. She is still alive today at the age of 69. Photo is from a recreation.

2,000-year-old face cream inside a metal container from Roman times with visible ancient finger marks. ⁣⁣ "The cream was found to be composed of refined animal fat, starch and tin.

The researchers then created their own version, made to the same recipe.

When they rubbed the whitish cream into their skin, it produced a white layer with a smooth powdery texture. The latter quality was created by the starch—still used for this purpose in modern cosmetics."⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

According to Professor Richard Evershed from Bristol University: "White face paint was fashionable in Roman times and normally derived its colour from a lead compound. A tin compound would have been an acceptable substitute and in good supply from Cornwall."⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

In ancient Rome, lead was by far the most popular metal and was commonly used in cups, plates, coins, pipes, cosmetics, face powder, paints, food seasoning, and even birth control.⁣

Scientists have even discovered that tap water from ancient Rome contained up to 100 times more lead than that of local spring water.

As a result, some historians have speculated that lead poisoning may have played a part in bringing down the Roman Empire.⁣⁣

In the early 1990s, Brazilian photojournalist Sebastião Ribeiro Salgado was stationed in Rwanda to cover the genocide, an experience that left him traumatized.

In 1994, upon returning to his home in Minas Gerais, Brazil, Sebastião hoped to find solace in the lush green forest of his childhood.

Instead, he discovered that his home had transformed into a dusty, barren land stretching for miles, devoid of any wildlife. "The land was as sick as I was. Only about 0.5% of the land was covered in trees," he remarked.

At this time, his wife, Lélia Deluiz Wanick Salgado, proposed that they embark on the ambitious journey of replanting the entire forest. Sebastião supported the idea, and together, over the course of the next 20 years, they planted an astonishing 2.7 million trees.

Their efforts resulted in the rejuvenation of 1,500 acres of rainforest, and the site eventually became home to 293 plant species, 172 bird species, and 33 animal species, some of which were on the brink of extinction.

These tunnels were once believed to hide religious fortunes deep in their chambers, but the real treasure is found in who - or what - created them.

In 2009, a farmer was driving through his corn field in the south of Brazil when he suddenly felt his tractor sink and lurch to one side, making the vehicle shudder to a halt.

Researchers came to investigate and were surprised to find a tunnel nearly 2m high by almost 2m wide and about 15m long running across the field and right under the farmer's house.

Deep claw marks embedded into the walls indicated its past occupant was not human. A geologist and one of the scientists who visited the farmer's property, concluded was the work of a giant ground sloth from at least 10,000 years ago.
