5 Natural Things You Won’t Believe Exist | All5!. So in this list, I'll be showing you 5 Natural Things You Won’t Believe Actually Exist
5) The Stone-Turning Lake
There are millions of lakes around the world, but none are quite as bizarre as this one.
Lake Natron in Tanzania has created some of the most haunting sights.
The lake itself has a high PH which has the ability to turn animals that fall into it into stone.
However are many animals that live in the lake as they have adapted to life in this harsh environment.
Photographer Nick Brandt captured some extraordinary images of dead animals when he visited the lake.
He even posed each animal in a position that made it look like they were still alive.
4) Flowering Desert
Deserts are generally known for their harsh environment.
Due to the lack of water, it's unlikely for vegetation to ever grow.
However, in the Atacama Desert, something amazing happens when given the right conditions.
Every 5 - 7 years when rainfall is unusually high, the desert is taken over by thousands of beautiful flowers.
It's a breathtaking sight to see and goes against everything we expect from a desert.
3) Rainbow Trees
These trees found in the Philippines may look like someone just painted them but in fact, they are completely natural.
They can grow up to 76 meters in height and are known for their amazing colours.
For most the year the trees have a smooth orange bark.
But in Summer the tree's bark becomes multicoloured with the colours green, red, orange, grey and even purple.
2) Hair Ice
If you live in a cold climate you're probably familiar with all different kinds of ice.
But this specific Ice is so very rare it's unlikely you've ever seen it.
In order for this hair like ice to form the conditions need to be humid and very cold.
It also needs mycelium which are the roots of a fungus that lives on rotting wood.
So if you take a stroll in an icy forest you might just find hair ice.
This type of ice is also very hard to spot as its usually covered by snow, but if you know where to look for it, you could be in for a real treat.
1) Living Rocks
Let's face it, our planet is basically just one big rock.
If we go out into space, rocks are literally everywhere.
But have you ever seen a rock that bleeds?
Probably not and the truth is, technically neither has anyone else.
You see these bleeding rocks are actually not rocks at all.
They do look like rocks but are in fact marine invertebrate filter feeders.
Locals even eat them raw like oysters or cook them with salad and rice.
