Deadly hidden danger in the 'rainbow ice cave' in the US

A few days ago, the images taken by photographer Mathew Nichols inside an ice cave in Mount Rainier National Park (Washington, USA) made many people ecstatic. Because in the ice cave there are all the brilliant colors of the rainbow, like a magical light show.

After seeing these images, everyone wants to go to the ice caves in the hope of seeing and photographing that beautiful rainbow light.

Photos in the ice cave make many people bewildered.

However, the National Park Service (NPS) had to issue a warning that visitors to national parks in the US should not enter the ice caves to take pictures, as doing so could cost anyone. network.

They explained that there is such a beautiful light in the ice caves because sunlight shines through the ice ceiling of the cave at the right angle. Sunlight can create such an amazingly beautiful work, but it also melts the ice, causing the ceiling and ice walls in the cave to collapse unexpectedly.

The lighting effect creates stunning images in the ice cave.

And if the ice does not melt, the falling ice can cause serious injury or death to people in the cave or standing near the entrance to the cave. On the ground, the water level can also rise suddenly due to melting snow, and the water temperature is extremely low. People entering the ice caves may experience hypothermia, which when prolonged, will cause cardiac arrhythmias, affecting the nervous system .

Entering the ice cave is actually extremely dangerous.

In fact, Mount Rainier National Park has had to close several ice caves due to unsafety: Pieces of ice, some the size of a car, broke off and fell from the ceiling, according to the NPS.
