here we can discuses fun stuff like world wonders, missing people, weird artifacts, and any ambiguous thing other then politics. (and please do not compare people who disagree with you to Hitler It's not nice). ^Oh wait. this isn't G+ is it…^
since this is the slow part of the year here are some things to get started on:
Baigong Pipes
The Baigong pipes, which are also known as 白公山铁管 (Bai Gongshan Iron Pipes) and Delingha pipes, are a series of pipe-like features found on and near White Mountain (Chinese: 白公山; pinyin: Báigōngshān 'Mount Baigong'), about 40-kilometer (25 mi) southwest of the city of Delingha, in the Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, China.
Some of the Baigong pipes are reported to be associated with three caves in White Mountain. These caves are reported to occur within the front...
stone spheres
The stone spheres of Costa Rica are an assortment of over 300 petrospheres in Costa Rica, on the Diquís Delta and on Isla del Caño. Locally, they are also known as bolas de piedra (lit. 'stone balls'). The spheres are commonly attributed to the extinct Diquís culture, and they are sometimes referred to as the Diquís spheres. They are the best-known stone sculptures of the Isthmo-Colombian area.
They are thought to have been placed in lines along the approach to the houses of chiefs, but their ex...
Roman dodecahedron
A Roman dodecahedron or Gallo-Roman dodecahedron is a small hollow object made of copper alloy which has been cast into a regular dodecahedral shape with twelve flat pentagonal faces. Each face has a circular hole of varying diameter in the middle, the holes connecting to the hollow center, and each corner has a protruding knob. Roman dodecahedra date from the 2nd to 4th centuries AD and their purpose remains unknown. They rarely show signs of wear, and do not have any inscribed numbe Roman dodec...
Quimbaya airplanes
Quimbaya artifacts refer to a range of primarily ceramic and gold objects surviving from the Quimbaya civilisation, one of many pre-Columbian cultures of Colombia inhabiting the Middle Cauca River valley and southern Antioquian region of modern-day Colombia. The artifacts are believed to have originated during the Classical Quimbaya period 500 BC–600 AD.
Poporos are vessel type containers primarily used to store powdered lime, made from calcined seashells. They were often cast in gold, decorated...
the London hammer
The London Hammer (also known as the "London Artifact") is a hammer made of iron and wood that was found in London, Texas in 1936. Part of the hammer is embedded in a limey rock concretion, leading some to regard it as an anomalous artifact. The tool is identical to late 19th-century mining hammers; one theory for its encasement in rock is that a deposit of highly soluble travertine may have formed and hardened around it within a relatively short time.
The hammer was purportedly found by a loc...

World wonder #1: My brother Peter

World wonder #3: Peter's equipment… I try to to be too curious.
shiver The Bermuda Triangle gives me the creeps…
It's very mysterious!
The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a loosely defined region in the North Atlantic Ocean, roughly bounded by Florida, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico. Since the mid-20th century, it has been the focus of an urban legend suggesting that many aircraft, ships, and people have disappeared there under mysterious circumstances. However, extensive investigations by reputable sources, including the U.S. government and scientific organizations, have found no evidence of unusual activi...
I would guess that half of those disappearances are real(I mean it is 1,300,000 square km), the others are planed (especially the ones with the government involved).
Yeah, I agree. Still, it is weird.
