Stay away from this place, you don’t even have to swim in it to die of toxic poisoning. It is considered one of the most dangerous places on the planet. Located in eastern Russia, in the southern Ural mountains, the lake was a dumping ground for the Soviet Union’s nuclear weapon facilities. It is contaminated with radioactive waste caused by accidents and disasters. And don’t expect to see any warning signs near the area either. The area should have been closed down by the Russian military. But then again, it is Russia. Just be sure not to go even 10 miles near the area. But that is your choice.
