The Giant Human Skeleton Ever Saw!!

The Recent exploration activity in the northern region of India uncovered a skeletal remains of a human of phenomenal size. This region of the Indian desert is called the Empty Quarter. The discovery was made by National Geographic Team (India Division) with support from the Indian Army since the area comes under the jurisdiction of the Army. The exploration team also found tablets with inscriptions that stated that our Gods of Indian mythological yore, ˜Brahma" had created people of phenomenal size the like of which He has not created since.

The account added that the team also found tablets with inscriptions that suggest the giant belonged to a race of superhumans that are mentioned in the Mahabharata, a Hindu epic poem from about 200 B.C.

"They were very tall, big and very powerful, such that they could put their arms around a tree trunk and uproot it," the report said, repeating claims that initially appeared in 2004. - National Geographic official report.

An Unusual Fish named as Arowana (5 pics)

Arowanas, also known as aruanas or arawanas, are freshwater bony fish of the family Osteoglossidae, sometimes known as "bonytongues". In this family of fishes, the head is bony and the elongate body is covered by large, heavy scales, with a mosaic pattern of canals. The dorsal and the anal fins have soft rays and are long based, while the pectoral and ventral fins are small. The name "bonytongues" is derived from a toothed bone on the floor of the mouth, the "tongue", equipped with teeth that bite against teeth on the roof of the mouth. The fish can obtain oxygen from air by sucking it into the swim bladder, which is lined with capillaries like lung tissue. The arapaima is an "obligatory air breather".





The role of the "fish mom" is pretty different that it lay eggs directly into the mouth of the "fish dad". And the dad has to keep its young children in the mouth until they go out.

Fake Egg was created in China. (9 Pics)

Chinese are now creating Fake Eggs... Can you believe that they are creating artificial eggs!!


Actually, Here are the ingredients used to fabricate the artificial eggs. Chemical terms are given in translation from the Chinese, so I’m not entirely sure that they are accurate.
To make an eggshell, calcium carbonate is used, for egg yolk and egg white – sodium alginate, alum, Gelatin, calcium chloride and pigment.
these above materials are used to create this fake egg...

Planets will collide in 5 billion years, report

From chaos we all began, and to chaos we’ll all return, but not for a very, very long time – 5 billion years or so, more or less.

In the journal Nature today, two French scientists, using arcane mathematical models, predict that in the distant future, the Earth and planet after planet will collide with each other as an inevitable part of the solar system's long-term evolution. For many millennia, the scientists say, the orbits of the solar system's eight planets will remain stable, just as they are today, but eventually small eccentricities in their flight paths around the sun could cause Mercury, Mars, Venus and Earth to smash into each other, either one at a time or all at once - the ultimate chaotic disaster.

The Flying fish

The Exocoetidae or flying fish are a marine fish family comprising about 50 species grouped in 7 to 9 genera. Flying fish are found in all of the major oceans, particularly in the warm tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans. Their most striking feature is their pectoral fins, which are unusually large, and enable the fish to take short gliding flights through air, above the surface of the water, in order to escape from predators. Their glides are typically around 50m, but they can use updrafts at the leading edge of waves to cover distances of at least 400m.
