Imagine: night, an Aztec temple, and suddenly a chilling scream ripples through the air.... 😱

It's not a victim, but a “death whistle” - a unique artifact capable of realistically imitating a human scream over great distances.

The Aztecs used these whistles for ritual purposes and to intimidate their enemies.

A creepy object with an equally creepy history!

Wow wow wow!!! @wowfactory

Robocop in action: in Texas, a machine defeated a criminal!

In Texas, something happened that we've only seen in sci-fi movies before. An armed criminal, a shootout, a barricaded motel - just like in an action movie! But instead of a SWAT team, it's a... a robot!

This iron hero didn't stand on ceremony: he poured pepper spray on the villain, and then just ran over him. Bang - and the criminal is neutralized! No danger to the police, no unnecessary casualties.

Wow wow wow!!! @wowfactory

In the Pacific Ocean at a depth of more than 3 kilometers underwater drone filmed the rarest squid Magnapinna.

It is an elusive creature with incredibly long tentacles reaching 8 meters.

Magnapinna was first discovered back in 1907, but since then only about 20 sightings of this deep-sea dweller have been recorded.

Jeanne Calment, a French ultra-long-lived woman, lived for 122 years and is known for her unusual lifestyle. She smoked for 95 years, starting at age 21 and quitting only at 117, when she lost almost all of her sight and could not light cigarettes on her own.

At the age of 90, Kalman struck a deal with lawyer François Raffret, whereby he would pay her a monthly allowance in exchange for the right to her apartment upon her death. Despite his expectations, however, Kalman outlived the lawyer, and his widow continued the payments. Eventually, the amount of the payments exceeded twice the value of the apartment.

From September 29 to November 25, 2024, Earth will temporarily get a second moon.

The asteroid, which is moving towards our planet, will revolve around it during this time.

Such a phenomenon, when an asteroid becomes a temporary satellite of the Earth, occurs quite rarely and provides an opportunity to study its characteristics and behavior near our planet.
