Weirdest Discoveries Made in the Jungle
People have been making discoveries in the jungle for as long as we can remember, and yet, there are still so many secrets to uncover. Let’s have a look at what incredibly weird things people have discovered amongst tangled vegetation and treed canopies.

9 - Goliath Birdeaters
If you’re afraid of spiders, put your hands in front of your eyes right now! This is the Goliath Birdeater and it’s the heaviest tarantula in the world! They can reach 5-inches in length or 12 cm and can weigh up to 6 ounces or 170 grams! This monster spider was discovered around the marshes and swamps of the Amazon River and it burrows underground and only comes out at night to grab its prey. Amazingly, they’re not dangerous to humans. They do shed their hairs which cause a bit of irritation, but that’s about it.
8 - Meteorite, Sri Lanka
A meteorite fell in the Sri Lankan jungle and the scientists in the United Kingdom who have been studying the rock believe something out of this world. Two separate studies have confirmed that the meteorite contains fossils and algae that could suggest that life exists somewhere in space. The disbelievers believe that the algae and fossils were just picked up on earth, but the former option sounds way more exciting!
7 - Flesh-eating parasite
In 2011, a team of explorers discovered the “Lost City of the Monkey God” in the Honduran jungle. Douglas Preston was amongst the team and he has released a book about the journey which is worth the read. The site that the team found is believed to be this lost city, but that’s not all the team found. They also found that they had contracted a flesh-eating disease and needed to leave in a hurry to save themselves. The parasite enters your mucous membranes and eats your face away. They also encountered venomous snakes and had to leave in a hurry, leaving behind many secrets still needing to be uncovered.
6 - Jesus Lizard
The jungle is home to many incredibly unique animals, including the Jesus lizard, scientifically known as “Basiliscus basiliscus.” This insane lizard has a special webbing on its feet, so when it's running away from predators, it spreads the webbing open and can literally run on water for up to 20 meters or 65 feet! They are found in the jungles of Central and north-western South America.
5 - Cookeina
Mushrooms and fungi are also common in the jungles and rainforests, and in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, you find a weird mushroom called the Cookeina. There are many different species of this intriguing looking mushroom and the Temuans of Peninsular Malaysia eat some of the varieties and use some for bait!
4 - Go find some treasure
If you consider yourself a bit of a treasure hunter, head to the Amazonian jungle and start searching for the treasures supposedly buried by the people of Atahualpa, the last Incan emperor. A team have already uncovered a structure made up of hundreds of two-ton stone blocks and believe they’re on their way to finding the Treasure of the Llanganates. Atahualpa was captured, and his people offered a room full of gold for his safe release. The offer was refused, and Atahualpa was executed. It’s believed he was buried with the treasure, so now it’s up to you to find it.
3 - Potoo
A master of disguise is the Potoo, and this bird is found in the Amazon rainforest. These nocturnal creatures are so still during the day that they look like they’re part of the branch they’re perched on. The branch that they’re on is also home to the one single egg that they lay, which is incubated by both the male and female. You’d have to really look hard to find one of these weird birds!
2 - Humpback Whale
The words jungle and humpback whale do not go together at all, yet that’s exactly what was discovered in a mangrove swamp near the mouth of the Amazon river. The whale was 36 feet or 11 meters long and it took workers two attempts to reach the whale. They realized something big was there by the birds that were circling above it. It’s believed the calf was separated from her mum and stormy weather and high tides launched her ashore. It’s speculated that the whale swam closer to the beach looking for food and suffocated after swallowing large amounts of plastic. The whale will be left to decompose, and the skeleton donated to a local natural history museum.

The Old Train Shed
So in this short video martin zero took us on a whim to this wooded area in Horwich where we going to go looking for clues of an old railway that was once there, unfortunately I dont know the name of this section of line, as the research didnt turn up much and the same for the old maps I use. We explored a vast wooded area which we had to get through by walking through a sodden field in which we got our shoes soaked and covered in mud. Whilst exploring the wooded area we found an old bridge possibly a rail bridge back when the line would have been active, also came across some sleepers which were partially rotten. We also stumbled upon what looked like and electrical pole or telephone pole which had cables still mounted on it but were heavily corroded and rusted. Then myself and Adam lost Martin and shortly after losing part of our urban exploring team I had received a text from Martin saying he had found something so we hurried on and eventually found him. He shows us a huge hole in the ground and we were stumped and perplexed at what it could be or couldve been in its historical past. After the jaw dropping discovery we then carried on further until we hit the fencing border and as we gazed through we saw the old train shed in all its glory but we could only look on in ore at this magnificent piece of historical construction still standing today.
I hope you enjoy the video as usual

10 Kids Who Were Raised By Wild Animals
10 Real Kids Who Were Raised In The AMAZON JUNGLE
Subscribe to our channel: ► ◄
Have you ever been to a restaurant or just out in public and you get disrupted by loud and hyper kids? Yup, children can get pretty wild and make quite a scene. However, what about when children get really wild? We mean this in the literal sense and have 10 examples of children who were raised in the wild by animals.
We’ll start you off with Natasha, a girl who was actually raised by feral cats and dogs after her parents neglected her. Then there’s Bello, a character who is seemingly straight from a Disney movie thanks to the fact he was raised by chimps. We’ll travel to India to tell you about a boy who was actually living with wolves. Not too far from there, lives a woman in Cambodia who appeared from the jungle one day after living a feral life for several years. If you like cats then be sure to stick around for the story of the little boy who was actually raised by a pack of feral street cats. No discussion of kids raised by wild animals would be complete without mentioning Marina Chapman. Allegedly kidnapped, her strange story involves monkeys in the jungle and a happy ending. In Siberia, a boy named Andrei was abandoned by his parents. Incredibly, he survived the harsh environment thanks to man’s best friend. In the Andes Mountains in South America, we’ll tell you about a boy known only as Daniel who survived thanks to wild goats. Speaking of mountains, there’s also the incredible story of Marcos who basically lived with wolves and, from what we can gather, experienced a Disney-like story over several years. Finally, there’s the story of a Ugandan man named John who fled into the jungle as a boy and was “discovered” years later living with a troop of monkeys.

8. The Lost City of Giants
Deep in the Ecuadorian jungle, explorers discovered a lost city in 2012. However, it certainly wasn’t any normal ancient city. It is known as the “Lost City of Giants.”
According to reports, upon arrival, the explorers found a set of massive structures, the largest being a 79-meter-tall by 79-meter-wide (260 ft x 260 ft) pyramid of unusual shape. At the top of the pyramid is a flat, polished stone, believed to have been a sacrificial altar. The magnitude of these buildings is what gives the city its name and leads many archaeologists to believe that giants did build and inhabit the city, although many others remain skeptical on that point. What makes this discovery even more peculiar is not just the buildings themselves but also the tools and artifacts found there. Many oversized, manufactured tools were said to have been discovered, allegedly so big that it would be impossible for humans to use them. The team that discovered the city believes that the tools are a crucial piece of evidence that in the distant past, giants once walked the Earth.
7. Maricoxi
The Maricoxi are essentially the sasquatches of South America. They are reported to be huge, ape-like beings that can stand up to 3.7 meters (12 ft) tall. Although they appear primitive, they’re said to be fairly intelligent, wielding bows and arrows and even living in villages. According to British explorer Colonel Percival H. Fawcett, who allegedly encountered the creatures while mapping out the jungles of South America in 1914, they were extremely hairy and lived north of a tribe called the Maxubi. They could only speak in grunts and were extremely hostile toward humans. In the colonel’s book, Lost Trails, Lost Cities, he describes how he and his men were nearly attacked by the beasts when they got close to their village. However, they were able to keep the beasts away by firing their guns into the ground by the creatures’ feet, sending them running in terror.
In 1925, Fawcett disappeared along with all his men while on an expedition to find a lost city. Theories suggest that they were killed by local tribes or died of starvation. However, some say they were killed by the Maricoxi, although there is no evidence to back this up.
6. Boiling River
When he was only a boy, Andrés Ruzo, a geophysicist, heard a legend from his grandfather. This legend was about how the conquistadors went in search of El Dorado, the city of gold, deep in the Amazonian jungles. The fortunate few survivors of the expedition returned with all sorts of stories, ranging from man-eating snakes, jungle people with poison darts, trees bigger than they’d ever seen, and a boiling river capable of instantly killing anyone who would fall in its waters.
This story remained with Ruzo into his adulthood. For his PhD, he decided to make Peru’s first detailed geothermal map. Boiling streams do exist. They are located near volcanoes or other geothermal hotspots. The Amazonian basin is nowhere near such places, and the existence of a boiling river would be next to impossible. However, as fate would have it, his aunt, of all people, was familiar with the boiling river. Not only had she been there before, but she was friends with the river shaman’s wife.
She took Ruzo there, some 440 miles away from any volcanoes, and deep within the Peruvian jungle. The river itself is about 82 feet wide and 20 feet deep in some places, and for a distance of about 4 miles, its waters are close to boiling point. This site is known as Mayantuyacu, and is considered sacred by the natives. They use its waters for everything from cooking, brewing tea, or washing.
Because Mayantuyacu is nowhere near a volcano, there isn’t a simple answer as to where the heat comes from. The best explanation so far, is that this water comes from far away, as far as the glaciers high up in the Andes Mountains. Then it goes through an immense network of fissures within the mountains themselves, then deep underground where it’s heated, only to come back out in this place, making this stretch of the river boil.
5. The Stone Spheres of Costa Rica
Ever since the late 1930s, people have been discovering strange stone spheres scattered all across southern Costa Rica. In order to make room for banana plantations, farmers began clearing the jungle
