Unexplored Places We Are Still Not Sure Really Exist

2/11/2026
There are still some places on Earth that remain a total mystery, and we’re not even sure if they really exist! For example, there's the legendary city of Atlantis, which people have been searching for forever—some say it’s hidden beneath the ocean. Then there's the Eye of the Sahara, a massive spiral formation in the desert that might have been a meteor crash site or even the ruins of an ancient city. The Amazon rainforest is another mystery; deep inside, there are rumored to be uncontacted tribes and hidden temples. Even in modern times, places like Mount Roraima in South America seem like they belong to another world, with their flat-topped peaks shrouded in mist. So, even with all our technology, some places still keep their secrets! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This Island Doesn't Exist But Keeps Popping Up on Maps

2/11/2026
There’s this wild mystery about an island called Sandy Island—it doesn’t exist, but it keeps showing up on maps. For years, people thought it was real because early explorers reported it, and mapmakers just went with it. Even Google Maps had it at one point! Then, in 2012, a research team sailed to where it was supposed to be and found… nothing but open ocean. Turns out, it was probably a mix-up with pumice stones floating on the water or just plain human error. Now it’s a reminder that not everything on a map is true, and even cartographers can get it wrong! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

While such intersections of aerial and terrestrial transportation are not common, they happen so frequently that you might be surprised. But after all, a runway and a highway aren’t so wildly different. They look pretty much the same: roads are straight pieces of asphalt, just like you’d find in an airfield. In this video we're gonna take a look at an emergency case scenario, when a pilot needs to land a plane of a highway.
