The area is largely undeveloped, & road building is deemed too expensive for the two Latin American countries, resulting in a missing link in the Pan-American Highway. Crossing the two countries by land requires moving through vast swathes of swamp on the Colombian side, & a mountainous rainforest on the Panamanian side. But the area's difficult geography & hostile environment should be the least of a traveler’s worries. The Darien Gap is home to the FARC. FARC is present on both sides of the border. In 2000, English plant hunter Tom Hart Dyke went to the Darien Gap in search of rare orchids with his friend Paul Winder. The two were eventually found by FARC. They were held for nearly 10 months, in which during that time they were fed with spiders & snakes. 6: The Australian Outback Australia's Outback is deeply ingrained in the country's heritage. The vast remote inlands include scorching dry deserts, tropical & monsoonal climates, & unique wildlife animals not found anywhere else on the planet. For starters, the Australian Outback is home to creatures. There's the Inland Taipan, recognized as the most venomous snake in the world. Then there are crocodiles; both the freshwater & saltwater kinds. These huge reptiles are mean, cunning, & unpredictable. Also, there's a large variety of poisonous bugs like spiders, scorpions, stinging ants, wasps & bees. But as dangerous as wildlife animals are, they can be avoided with good preparation & a bit of common sense. 4: Lake Natron, Tanzania Lake Natron is a salt & soda lake in northern Tanzania, close to Kenya's border. Temperatures at the lake are always high, reaching up to 60° C, causing it to experience high levels of evaporation that leaves behind sodium carbonate mineral deposits. This causes the lake water to be extremely alkaline, with a pH above 11. For most living creatures, the area's extreme temperature & high salt level makes it inhospitable. Lake Natron's corrosive environment acts as a natural barrier against predators trying to reach flamingo nests made on seasonally forming “evaporite islands”. In 2013, photographer Nick Brandt went to Lake Natron & faced an eerie sight. Lying on the ground near the lake's shores were calcified flamingoes, birds & bats. 3: Siberia, Russia Siberia is an extensive geographical region that comprises most of Russia's Asian region. The population density of this enormous piece of land is only about 3 inhabitants per square kilometer, making it the most sparsely populated region on the planet, & for good reason. The thick green forests are very inviting, but when October comes they would all be covered in white snow. Winter in Siberia is no joke, with some villages reaching temperatures as low as -67 °C (-89 °F). & if the cold fails to get you, a wild bear most likely will. Even today, infrastructural remnants of the cruel era still remain out in the open & in use by the public. The Kolyma Federal Highway runs through the Russian Far East. 2: North Sentinel Island, India The North Sentinel is a remote island in the Bay of Bengal, off the eastern coast of mainland India. If there is any island you should steer clear of at all costs, it is this island. The reason is that North Sentinel is inhabited by the Sentinelese. The Sentinelese are among the very few remaining isolated communities on the planet. Their current number is unknown, but according to Indian censuses should be between 50-400 people. According to experts, their population faces potential diseases as they lack immunity due to living in isolation for centuries. Following the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, an Indian government helicopter was dispatched to observe the situation of the islanders. They had apparently survived the disaster, & shot arrows & threw stones at the hovering aircraft. In 2006, two Indian fishermen who ventured into North Sentinel waters accidentally drifted too close to the island. 1: Ilha de Queimada Grande, Brazil 20 miles off the coast of Sao Paolo, Brazil, is the deadly island of Ilha de Queimada Grande. Referred to as "Snake Island", the entire place is swarming with thousands of venomous snakes. The island is the only place on the planet where you could find the infamous Bothrops insularis, better known as the Golden Lancehead Viper, owing to its pointed lance-like head. Its main diet on the island consists of birds, which the Golden Lancehead Vipers can pluck out of the sky from tall trees. Scientists are still puzzled as to why these snakes are incredibly venomous compared to their brethren on the mainland.
