Our world is so diverse that it’s just impossible to know about everything, even if you have a huge library. We, for example, didn’t know that ants are able to build temporary bridges using their bodies to make sure others can get across. And now we know what happens to a boiled egg if you forget about it for 20 years.

We at Bright Side hope that you love learning new and amazing facts about our planet as much as we do! If so, here are 14 photos just for your pleasure.
