• There are a lot of Mysteries around the world. They can be from what we see everyday around us. Like:-

Why do the young try to act so much older than they are, but the older try their best to look and feel young.

why people with the most money are the most unhappy, and people with nothing much are the happiest.

Why do people long to be rich or powerful, and once they are one of two things happen. (1) they are never satisfied and still long for more, (2) they are overwhelmed and do not know what to do with themselves. These are the mysteries of life still unsolved.

Let us see some unsolved mysteries of the world.

The Bermuda Triangle• The Bermuda Triangle is a large part of ocean in

the North Atlantic that has been the source of many plain- and boat disappearances.

• A number of explanations have been suggested over the years ranging from; time warps, extreme weather to alien abductions.

• There is substantial evidence to show that many of the disappearances have been exaggerated, but even if those were excluded from the total count, the odds of vanishing into thin air are higher in the Bermuda Triangle then anywhere else.

• The Bermuda Triangle is still one of the biggest unsolved mysteries in the world.

The Loch Ness Monster• The Loch Ness Monster is a legendary animal that

supposedly resides in the depths of Loch Ness, a long narrow lake situated in rural Scotland.

• Stories concerning the monster date back to the 6th century A.D. The region was in complete isolation until a road was built alongside the lake in 1933.

• Then large numbers of people travelled through the region for the very first time. Over the years thousands have reported seeing something in the lake. Most reports depict a long neck surging from the water with a small head of a unknown creature.

The Zodiac Killer

• In the late 60s and early 70s, the Zodiac Killer terrorized northern California, murdering four men and three women.

• The killer sent letters containing four cryptograms to the local media. Of the four cryptograms sent, only one has been definitively solved.

• Despite several people coming forward over the years claiming to know the identity of the killer, the murderer's identity is still unknown.

The Bigfoot

• Bigfoot is world-famous for scaring the hikers and hunters in North America. Scientists consider Sasquatch to be the result of folklore and misidentification. However, many people still believe these humanoid creatures exist around the world, just like the Yeti of the Himalayas.

Tamam Shud• In December 1948, an unidentified man

was found dead in Somerton Beach, located in Adelaide, Australia.

• Found in one of his pockets was a piece of paper with the words “Tamam Shud” written on it. When the words were translated they meant “finished” or “ended”.

• Although governments around the world have tried to identify the man his identity has remained a mystery.

• Atlantis is a legendary island first mentioned in 350 BC by Plato. He  wrote about a beautiful island in the Atlantic Ocean that went under the ocean waves in one day and one night.

• For years people have been looking for this mysterious lost city. The exact location of the lost city of Atlantis has been questioned by many people.

• Some people think it's lost somewhere in Central America and some think its near Andes mountains in Bolivia. However its exact location has not been found yet.

The Wow Signal• On a summer night in 1977, a signal was caught

by a big telescope and it seemed for a short period of time that human history is going to change. The message was sent from another world and lasted for seventy seconds.

• The signal was actually shift of letters to numbers and was so intriguing that Ehman circled the letters with red ink and wrote “Wow” on it, since then it is known as “The Wow” signal.

• Many professionals and astronauts tried to actually find out the exact meaning of that signal but did not succeed and the signal has never been found again.

Georgia Guidestones

• Also identified as the American version of Stonehenge, the Georgia Guidestones located in Elbert County are shrouded in mystery, although they were erected only in 1979.

• Written on the walls are 10 “new commandments” written in English, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, China, Russia, and Spanish although no one is sure why or for whom they were meant.
