Sirens come into action across the island when the levels of sulfur rise strongly and sharply.

Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands is the UNESCO World Heritage Site which is known to be fatal for two reasons, one is nuclear radiation and the other is for sharks.
The site has been the eye-witness of more than 20 nuclear weapons tests between 1946 and 1958. Although in 1997, the island was declared ‘safe.’ But their native residents refused to come back. Eating products are not recommended that are locally grown. Then no chomping or biting on fallen coconuts.
Apart from this, the lack of fishing in the area during the last 65 years means that marine life including sharks — attracts hundreds of divers every year along with many damages and debris in this area.

In the north of Scotland, this small island was used by the British government for biological armed conflict testing during the World War II.
Many experiments were done on the uninhabited island using the Excessive toxic anthrax bacterium (virus), which killed hundreds of sheep and forced the island to be confined. In the 1980s, the island was purified by using hundreds of tons of formaldehyde — another potentially dangerous material.

In between the time period of 1946 and 1970, the sea around the Farallon Islands off the coast of San Francisco was used as a dumping site for radioactive waste. An approximated 47,500 55-gallon (208-liter) steel drums were thrown out here but their exact location and the risk they pose to the environment is not clear.
It’s also concluded that attempting to remove them would result in causing more damage than leaving them untouched. There’s also an extensive elephant seal population, which attracts a number of Great White Sharks. So, at your own risk, go for snorkeling.

Ramree island is situated off the coast of Myanmar (Burma), is famous for a horrific incident that occurred during the Second World War. During 1945, following the fight between British and Japanese armed forces, an estimated 400 Japanese soldiers were forced to escape into the marshes that surround the island, where they were seemingly set upon by the island’s sizeable population of saltwater crocodiles. The incident is there in the Guinness Book of Records, The Greatest Disaster Suffered [by humans] from Animals. The island houses thousands of saltwater crocodiles, which are world’s largest reptilian predator. They can weigh about 2,000 pounds. The fact is that even a small crocodile can kill a big person. It just not end here as the poisonous scorpions are everywhere as well as mosquitoes carrying malaria.

People who used to live there actually departed the area in the year 2000 (and once in 1953) because the levels of gas were through the roof. They were allowed to enter again five years later. It is compulsory to wear masks at all time for the residents of Miyakejima, one of Japan’s Izu Islands.

20. Hashima Island (Japan)



Via: wikimedia.org

Hashima Island could have claimed the title of the most densely-populated destination on the planet. Thousands of Japanese workers along with forced laborers from China and Korea who worked hard in the island’s deep mine shafts during World War II have a long history in the past. When Japan shifted to petroleum as its main energy source instead of coal, the island was no longer economically usable, and hence abandoned. Most of the massive concrete buildings are still standing, though, which makes this island an atmosphere of a floating ghost town, or an old battleship.
