The Most Unexplainable Places on Earth

Eternal Flame Falls

In Chestnut Ridge Park, New York, a methane-fueled fire glows behind some incredible waterfalls. The fire is naturally occuring, but not eternal. Sometimes, wind causes water to splash onto the fire source which diminishes the flames, but it always starts up again once its dry enough! This is another natural wonder.

Easter Island

The mysterious Easter Island Moai heads are one of Earth's greatest mysteries. These figures were erected over 900 years ago and weigh approximately 14 tons. It's unclear how ancient Polynesians carved and placed these statues. Researchers have studied these for decades with no real answers.
