This Seems to Be Just an Ordinary Roadside Barrier, But You’ll Be Amazed When You See It in Action!

he world is full of good people constantly looking for ways to apply their creativity in order to help others.
Metallic barriers at the side of roads are meant to keep people safe, preventing cars from going off the highway.

However, if a car hits one of these barriers at great speed, the consequences can be serious.
Recently, however, the South Korean company ETI developed a new kind of barrier specifically designed to save people’s lives and reduce the chance of the driver or passengers being injured.
Plastic rollers are installed between the metal columns of the barrier. While the metal part absorbs the force of the car’s impact, the rollers begin to turn, ensuring that the car doesn’t turn over, and at the same time reducing the potential damage to the car.

7 brilliant housewife tricks for the cleanest bathroom ever

Keeping the bathroom clean is not an easy task, and it requires a lot of time and effort. Hair-clogged drains, moisture-loving mildew, dirty shower doors, and, ahem, the toilet all make for an unpleasant chore.

lets know know how to make bathroom cleaning less of a burden. Here are 7 super effective tricks to help you enjoy a great-smelling and germ-free shower room in no time at all.

Streak-free mirrors

If you are not a fan of expensive commercial window cleaners that leave those pesky streaks on your mirrors, you can make your own toxic-free cleaner at home. Simply make up a solution of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide, spray it on the mirror, and wipe it with a sponge to get any spots off.

You can also use shaving cream. Not only will it make your glass surfaces shine, but it will also prevent your bathroom mirror from steaming up after your next hot shower.

A sparkling bathtub

One way to get rid of germs and make your bathtub look brand new again is by using a mixture of 1/2 cup of vinegar, 1 cup of rubbing alcohol, and 1/4 cup of water. Add all the ingredients to 4 quarts of warm water. Spread the mixture evenly over the dirty areas, let it sit for 15 minutes, and then rinse well. You will be amazed at how clean your shower will be.

A clean toilet

A standard mouth rinse can make a perfect toilet cleaner. Dissolve your oral rinse or toothpaste in water, apply this mixture onto the dirty surface, wait for 30 minutes, then scrub well with the toilet brush and rinse.

Spotless tiles

A cotton ball soaked in oxygen bleach will help you keep your tiles extra shiny and free from water spots. You can also use mouth rinse or toothpaste for this job.

Getting rid of rust

Getting rid of rust is easier than it may seem. Simply pour salt over the rusted area, rub it in, and squeeze some lemon juice on top. The lemon juice reacts with the rust to dissolve it from the surface, and the salt absorbs the rust stains. Leave the solution overnight, and wash it off in the morning.

A dust-free ceiling

For a clean and dust-free ceiling, use a mixture of 1 part vinegar to 1 part warm water. Dip a mop in the prepared solution, and begin cleaning your ceiling. Please bear in mind that you should wear safety glasses when doing this kind of work.

Clean shower curtains

In a spray bottle, mix together 16 fl oz (500 ml) of all-purpose bleach and 2 tablespoons of dishwashing liquid. Spray this solution over the entire surface of your shower curtain, let it sit for several minutes, then rinse. Your curtain will look like new again.

How to Get Out of a Falling Elevator Alive in 4 steps

Unfortunately, no one in this world can ever be completely safe from life’s dangers. However, it is within our power to find out beforehand how we should act if we find ourselves in an extreme situation. In fact, timely action in such a situation could save both your own and other people’s lives.
We at Bright Side would like to share with you the recommendations of scientists and engineers about what you should and what you definitely shouldn’t do if you find yourself in a falling elevator.

Firstly, it will be very difficult to jump when you’re in freefall. Secondly, your jump will reduce the speed of your fall by the same amount that it’s occurring, and this is bad news for most people.

Thirdly, there’s no way to predict which part of your body you’ll land on, and therefore what harm jumping will do to your body. The guys over at the Discovery Channel have long since proved that you should never do this

This also isn’t a good idea, since a weight that is ten times greater than that of your body is going to come down on your legs during the fall. This could lead to extremely serious injuries.

As soon as you feel that the elevator is falling, immediately lie on your back on the floor of the elevator. In this position, the strength of the blow will be spread equally across the area of your body.

In this situation, the best thing you can do is sit on the floor of the elevator. In this position, the load on your skeleton will be less than if you were standing. If there’s very little space, then at least try to bend your knees, as this will also help to reduce the force of the impact.

Japanese road reopens one week after vast sinkhole appeared

A section of road in the centre of the Japanese city of Fukuoka has reopened just days after a sinkhole opened up outside a busy railway station and threatened to topple nearby buildings.

Huge sinkhole opens up in Japanese city: 'I heard a loud boom'

In a typical demonstration of Japanese workmanship and efficiency, workers toiled around the clocks and had practically filled in the section of road in just two days, according to local media.

The road reopened to traffic and pedestrians early on Tuesday after local officials declared the repaired stretch safe.

The weeklong rush to reopen the busy stretch of road included repairs to a sewage pipe and replacing traffic lights and utility poles that were swallowed when the sinkhole opened up shortly after 5am local time on 8 November.
