There are at least half a million different islands around the world, most of which pose no threat to humans.
But some geographical objects carry a mortal danger.
What islands should those who don't want to tempt fate know about?
North Sentinel
It is hard to believe that in our days authentic cultures that developed in a closed and isolated manner have still been able to survive.
North Sentinel is one of those mysterious places. The thing is that people live on the island, which territorially belongs to India. They have never had contact with the rest of the world.
However, approaching the locals is deadly dangerous, as they are not friendly. As a rule, the inhabitants of North Sentinel kill strangers who try to invade their territory.
Bikini Atoll
This island, which is located in the Pacific Ocean, has a rather dark reputation. The island was a great place for many people to live, but in the 1940s, the locals were asked to move to other places.
It is believed that at this time, weapons of mass destruction were being tested.
After some time, local residents were allowed to return to their homes. However, dozens of people soon said goodbye to life due to the development of oncological diseases.
Miyakejima
This Japanese island was used for habitation for many centuries, but volcanic activity made itself felt. Toxic substances made habitation on the island impossible.
Therefore, people were taken to other regions for several years.
Over time, the island became less dangerous to live on, so some people found the courage to return. However, it is believed that the threat to life due to the dangerous fumes still exists.
