Greatest mysteries of the world

Bigfoot

Bigfoot, also known as “Sasquatch,” is an ape-like creature reputed to inhabit remote forests, particularly in the US and Canada. It is described as being twelve feet tall, walking upright, and covered in dark brown or dark reddish hair. It's known as “Yeti” in Tibet and Nepal, “Yeren” in mainland China, and the “Yowie” in Australia. Whether Bigfoot is an alien creature from another galaxy or an elaborate hoax - or indeed real, the mystery has remained unsolved since centuries.

Bermuda Triangle

An unknown number of ships and aircraft have vanished without a trace here. Situated in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean between the coast of Florida and the islands of Puerto Rico and Bermuda, Bermuda Triangle has claimed everything from charter boats to large surface vessels, from small pvt airplanes to large commercial airliners, with passengers and crew never heard from again. Many believe that an extraterrestrial influence gives this portion of the ocean menacing power.

Egyptian Sphinx

Depicting a reclining half-human, half-lion mythological figure, the Egyptian Sphinx is the earliest known monumental sculpture. It's believed that it was built by the ancient Egyptians as the great protector. A treasure of untold value or even from an extraterrestrial culture is believed to be buried beneath this famous statue. Mystery has surrounded the Great Sphinx for nearly five thousand years, yet the Egyptian govt has been reluctant to let anyone solve the riddle. 

Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu - a Pre-Columbian city in Peru was constructed around 1450, at the height of the Inca Empire, and was abandoned less than 100 years later, as the empire collapsed. Few knew of its existence until 1911, when it was brought to the world’s attention. It is said that the silhouette of the mountain range behind Machu Picchu represents the face of the Inca looking upwards, while the largest peak, Huayna Picchu , represents his pierced nose. It is often referred to as "The Lost City of the Incas".

King Tut’s tomb

In 1922, the richest tomb in archeological history was opened in the Egyptian Valley of the Kings. The tomb of King Tutankhamen - an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty - had been untouched for 3,300 years before it was opened. Mystery surrounds the cause of the famous king's death and the unexplained deaths of the many of the researchers who opened the tomb. Many believe it to be the 'Curse of King Tut' which unleashed punishment and death on those who opened the tomb.
