10 lakes are beautiful but can kill people

These lakes are famous for their quiet space and beautiful scenery, but they also contain unpredictable dangers.

1. Ho Natron, Tanzania

This is one of the scariest lakes in the world, with a bright red color. The dead creatures in the lake were turned into statues and swept away to the shore. Scientists explain hydrogen and alkaline gas to produce salt and limestone, which helps preserve living organisms and prevent them from decaying.

2. Lake Kivu

Located between Congo and Rwanda, Kivu is one of the most dangerous lakes in the world. Any mountain or earthquake activity causes the lake to explode immediately. So far, it has killed more than 2 million people living around by being poisoned with CO2 and methane.

3. Roopkund Lake, Himalaya

The bodies of 200 mysterious dead people lay under this lake for more than 11 centuries, until the British army found them in 1942. What happened to 200 people at the same time? The answer is due to hail with a diameter of 7cm.

4. Lake Michigan, USA

Lake Michigan looks really attractive with its turquoise water and the beautiful, but dangerous, surrounding landscape beneath the water. Strong currents here can sweep bathers away from the shore. In the autumn, large waves appear on the lake like in the ocean.

5. Lake Nyos, Cameroon

This is considered a killer lake because it killed 1,746 people. On August 21, 1985, a cloud of poisonous gas appeared around Lake Nyos and killed all living creatures. Scientists say the cause of the volcanic bottom of the lake sprayed CO2 gas into the water before spreading all over the place like a cloud.

6. Boiling lake, Dominica

The water in this lake has an average temperature of up to 92 ° C. Guests are prohibited from swimming in the lake because the water here can boil humans. The cause of water in the lake is high temperature because it is located next to the active volcano.

7. Lake Gafsa, Tunisia

The strangest thing about this lake is that it appears in the middle of the arid desert. Scientists believe that Lake Gafsa's water originates from seismic activity, but they cannot explain how this phenomenon happened. Visitors may be in danger of swimming in the lake, as it contains toxic algae and radiation from nearby phosphorus mines.

8. Ho Kawah Ijen, Indonesia

This is the lake with the highest acid concentration in the world. The water is light blue and the temperature at the bottom reaches 200 ° C, while the methane gas here produces mysterious blue light at night. Despite the dangers, locals are still down the lake shore to exploit sulfur without carrying protective gear.

9. Lake Hillier, Australia

Hillier Lake has a beautiful pink color, but it is an extremely dangerous 'killer'. Scientists explain that pink water is created by many different microorganisms living in the lake.

10. Lake Brosno, Russia

Local people said they often saw an ancient lizard in this lake.

Local people say they often see an ancient lizard in the lake, but scientists still can't find its whereabouts. So what happened? The process of decomposing the bottom of the lake creates bubbles of CO2 and they can cause small boats to overturn so people think they are attacked by monsters.
