YES, WE CAN BRING BACK SOME FROM DEATH

Image
In 2018, there were widespread reports of a 53 year old Frenchman who had suffered a cardiac arrest and died. He was then resuscitated back to life after 18 hours from the arrest of his heart. This was brought to have been possible in part because his body had progressively cooled down naturally after his heart had stopped, through exposure to the outside cold. The medical team who revived him were reported as being 'stupefied' that they had been able to bring him back to life, in particular since he had not even suffered brain damage.

DEATH ROAD, THE MOST DANGEROUS ROAD IN THE WORLD

Image
The Yungas Road  also commonly known as the most dangerous road in the world or death road. This road is one of the few routes that connects the Amazon rain forest region of the northern Bolivia, to the capital city of La Paz. Most of the road has enough width for a single lane. When a driver faces incoming traffic, he must maneuver in the tight and treacherous space he has to continue his journey. This narrow road cut precariously into the side of the mountain with sheer vertigo-inducing drops off on one side and hulking rock overhangs and cascading waterfalls on the other. There are no guard rails for most of the road. Landslides, fog and water falls are those constantly causing threats for the drivers. The road became famous in the 1990s after happening several recurring accidents. Cars and buses plummeted down its cliffs of over 600 meters high'. An estimated 200 to 300 people died every year in different accidents until 1994. 18 cyclists alone died sinc...

This South American country has the lowest price for petrol in the world. The last  reported price was Rs 02 12 in Indian currency. Venezuela has the largest oil reserves in the world. The government is also giving huge subsidies to oil. However due to sanction imposed by America and some other countries in 2005 they could not sell oil in the world market. Consequent upon lifting certain sanction in the oil sector India made huge buying from Venezuela from December 2023. Surprisingly this could not make any positive impact in prices in the retail market of our country. As per available information Reliance Industries have received approval to buy oil from Venezuela.
