    He doesn't mention that Death valley cools drastically at night. The real danger with deserts beyond dehydration and sun exposure is not being prepared for the shift in nighttime temperature.

    Me and my friends went hiking in Death Valley many years ago. Didn't know about the mountain lions or black widow spiders, but I remember how paranoid we were about the scorpions and rattlers, although I found out years later that the venom from scorpions and even rattlers isn't actually as deadly as it's often portrayed (although I wouldn't recommend testing that). We had to wear gloves for climbing because of how hot the rocks get, and every once in a while you'd accidentally brush up against a rock and jump from the burn. We each had packs with 3 two liter bottles of water and soda, which we completely drained in the 4-5 hours we were out there. The next day it was like someone tie-dyed our shirts with salt lol. It was absurdly hot there but, I know it's a cliché but it's kinda true: it's a dry heat so it doesn't feel as unbearable. It's also pretty desolate out there, despite the fame of the area. Roads are quiet, no crowds. The heat keeps people away for the most part. Slept on top of the car that night because we were paranoid about creepy-crawlies on the ground and we were too poor to pay for a place. I remember how amazing the stars were out there.
  • “So staying home and watching YouTube all day seems like the responsible choice.” Someone finally gets me Edit: Wow, this is the most likes on a comment I’ve ever gotten, thank y’all so much and have a great day!!!!
  • I've been in Death Valley lot's of time's, we did custom landscaping for the rich and famous living in Las Vegas during the 70's, and had a woman who wanted a moving flower bed that would follow the sun's movement each day. So we got old map's of an abandoned silver mine and went to bring up an ore cart and enough steel track to complete the electrically controlled ore cart on a timer including automatic sprinklers. It was hot and hard work but it turned out great.

    The road up to "Fairy Meadows" in Northern Pakistan is comparable to the road mentioned at the start of this. Sheer drop offs for thousands of feet and incredibly narrow roads. While it hasn't been closed off (that I'm aware), I'm surprised it wasn't listed in this video.

    I would of thought Chicago would be on this list.

    About 20 years ago my husband and I drove across much of Death Valley in April. The temps by day were in the mid 70s, and we were out the other side before nightfall. Some amazing sights, including Zabriski Point - famous for the movie of the same name. Apparently we had inadvertently picked the perfect time to go. OTOH when we woke up at our motel the next morning it was snowing, and we kept seeing signs that places like the Donner Pass were completely shut down. It was still snowing when we got to Reno, but gradually warmed up a bit. What a long strange trip indeed!😉😁
  • I have spent quite a few of my childhood vacation in the Skeleton Coast Nature Reserve, and I will admit, though different, the desert does have a rather strange and captivating beauty. Also, should you go there during the summer season, and not take appropriate shelter on the beach, one could experience very cold temperatures and even freeze to death at night if not protected form the Atlantic winds. Still worth going, I'll admit just...be careful

    The world is a dangerous place. Yet, it's still beautiful
  • Fun fact: if you're still feeling the smell of rotten eggs, then that means you're relatively safe. The hydrogen sulfide will only cause respiratory problems if it's concentrations under 500 ppm, but will result in a fast death if it exceeds 800 ppm. It only keeps its smell up to around 10-15 ppm. Which means that if you're no longer feeling the smell of rotten eggs, that's the time to turn around and hightail it out of there.

    Been to Death Valley in the middle of winter. Loved it. The sand dunes are incredible and there are hot springs there. Beware: food, drink and gas are very expensive. About double of the usual cost. There is a cafeteria there (it might not be there anymore) and that was outrageous.

    The walk to Divers Cove in Laguna Beach, CA. It's on a cliff near Divers cove and the waves and water are such that they took my dog out to sea. She got caught by the wave and sucked under. I saw her nose pointing straight up before she went under. She came back up like 30 seconds later. I've never been so scared in my life. Thank God she was okay. She never liked going into the ocean much after that, but eventually she got into body boarding, so she ( the Dog ) took that up with avid enthusiasm.

    The most dangerous place I visited was when I was 8 sneaking into my mom's room to steal her phone in the middle of the night to play games
  • I live in Belize and to me the blue hole is absolutely breath taking
  • I never came out of my home so far. That I EVEN didn't visit anything. I loved your channel so much! Continue posting videos, Be Amazed!
  • At 6 years old, the most dangerous place I've ever been is in the ocean in Maine, on crab island, a sandbar, when it was overflowing.
