OMG! Whoever touches the water of this lake turns to stone, knows where in the world is this mysterious leak?
There are many extremely dangerous lakes and rivers around the world. Today we are going to tell you about such a lake that you will be surprised to see. Terrifying photos of this lake were revealed in 2013. Wildlife photographer Nick Brandt took pictures of this lake (Lake Natron). Frozen corpses of animals were visible in these photos. The animals turned into stone because of the water of the lake. The world was shocked to see these heartbreaking photos. This dangerous and beautiful lake located in Tanzania is called Lake Natron. Located in the Northern Ngorongoro District of the Arusha Region, Lake Natron is known as a saline lake or alkaline lake. This lake is believed to be extremely dangerous. Any living thing that comes into contact with it is said to turn to stone. The water of this lake is salty because of the Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano. This volcano is the first lake in the world to emit a peculiar lava called natrocarbonatite. The water of this brackish lake has become salty because sodium carbonate and other minerals from the surrounding hills are leached into nitrocarbonate. The high pH level of the water of this lake causes irritation to the skin and eyes of most animals. Apart from this, staying in water for a long time can also cause animal death. Sometimes the water of this lake reaches 60 degrees Celsius. This salt water lake won’t turn you to stone, but it can cause unimaginable skin irritation. The longer a person stays in the water of this lake, the greater the burning sensation. However, the pH level of water keeps fluctuating during the rainy season. If conditions worsen, the person may suffer severe burns. Therefore, this lake is considered extremely dangerous. Share this story Tags
