I think it was taken in the Republic of San Marino, a small independent state in the middle of the Italian Republic. It's on its eastern medieval ramparts, facing a sheer (and very high) cliff to the right.

hey anonymous, that wikipedia link doesn't make the irukandji sound particularly dangerous.
Irukandji syndrome is produced by a very small amount of venom and includes severe pains at various parts of the body (typically excruciating muscle cramps in the arms and legs, severe pain in the back and kidneys, and a burning sensation of the skin and face), headaches, nausea, restlessness, sweating, vomiting, high heart rate and blood pressure.
Certainly not pleasant, but not exactly in the same league as "dead in 30 seconds."

Irukandji is a nasty little bugger. wikipedia doesn't make it sound like much but the discovery channel did. there was a show where these two researchers were trying to capture one and they got stung. the guy suffered immense pain for two days. his colleague for 2 weeks.
so "severe pains at various parts of the body (typically excruciating muscle cramps in the arms and legs, severe pain in the back and kidneys, and a burning sensation of the skin and face), headaches, nausea, restlessness, sweating, vomiting, high heart rate and blood pressure."
may not sound like much but you might wish you were dead after the 3rd day. in fact the guy mentioned some other jellyfish he wished he was working with "with [somthing] the pain goes away in 30 minutes or you die" then he alluded to doing research on elephants instead. because their big and dont sting :)
needles to say next time the went Irukandji hunting they were wearing full protection.

The non-plus-ultra is "Clostridium botulinum" - a small bacterium producing a really insane poison called botulin toxin (also known as botox...) during the cell division.
Between 50pg/kg and 3ng/kg are needed to kill someone (!!). In my opinion, THAT is impressive.

Each cone snail has about 100 different variations of its venom. There is no antivenom to its sting. Several victims have survived though with immediate and constant pressure on the wound site and then mechanical ventilation. The risks of getting snuffed by one of these creatures is exceedingly small. Small as they are they can still be made non-existent, which is just what I'm will be doing by never going to their habitat.

Great writing but fatalities from many of these are very rare. Some are easily defended against also. Thin fabric like panty hose or a thin lycra jelly-suit are enough to defend against nematocysts firing, or look into Safe-Sea Sunscreens, that can also protect you. You'll find bottles of vinegar lining Aussie beaches and lifeguard stations, which is sufficient in most cases.

This is just FUD. It scares Yankee tourists away from coming to Australia. I can't remember the last time any of these critters actually managed to kill someone.
And for some reason the funnelweb spider, the salt water croc and the great white shark are left off the list. These do kill people. The crocs usually get some drunken swimmer every year. And because of the murky water - you don't see them coming.
But far more deadly - especially in usa - people with cars, guns and/or alcohol. And for a nice slow death - you can't go past cigarettes and high calorie fast food.

Australia is home to loads of poisonous things. However, the death rate there is extremely low (as in 1 or 2 every year). Due to their comprehensive knowledge of the poisons, and prompt medical attention. In the toxicology world, Chironex is generally thought of as more dangerous than the Irukanji - just because severe poisoning from the Irukanji is very rare. Blue ringed octopi are not always toxic, they absorb their toxin from prey/water. In general, CPR will save a person bitten by a B.R.O.

I've worked with most of these animals before and they aren't all lethal. A stonefish will hurt an incredible amount if you step on it and you will probably wish you were dead but unless you get an infection in the wound I wouldn't chisel out a tombstone any time soon. The Stonefish venom is a type of toxin that will simply break down under high temperatures, so throw that foot in some hot water and you will be fine (very sore but fine).
Box jellyfish are in the same boat. If you get stung on the arm or leg you will be in mind numbing pain but you probably won't die. Get stung around the torso and you are in big trouble though. Stop the sting and remove the tentacles all you need to do is cover the area in vinegar (which is at most affected beaches) and do CPR if they happen to stop breathing. But the vast majority of stings are not that bad (I have been stung dozens of times).
All said and done though, if you follow the warnings and listen to what locals say you won't get hurt. It is rare to die from these things but if you insist on frolicking in the water in the middle of summer on a beach that has a closed sign on it don't be surprised if you end up having an extremely painful holiday experience.

And what you dont know can kill you. Just because YOU know about these critters, does NOT mean everyone else knows. Most people ouside of Australia dont know that the Platypus is venomous.

fun article, reasonably well written, but as elmark's already hinted a trifle sensationalist.
eg, sea snakes do possess a dreadful venom, but their fangs are located at the back of their mouths, so it's very difficult for them to get a grip on humans sufficiently to deliver a fatal dose. the webs between your fingers and toes, or your earlobes, are about the only place they can do it. they're not particularly aggressive critters, either.

Hmm... wondering about the people who were nasty about pronouns but didn't notice the following:
"...as viscous and deadly as they are quiet and unassuming..." - should be "vicious," unless you're referring to their ability to run in your car's engine; and "...knock full grown monkey's out of the trees..." should be "monkeys" without the apostrophe.
Other than those (and I'm just a wee bit picky when it comes to language), a fine article. Thanks!

(1.) The cone snail is not NEARLY as deadly as you would portray. Only a couple of the larger species are actually deadly to humans and again, only the largest of these would approximate the effects you describe

Overwrought sensationalism; sounds like a National Enquirer article or the voice-over from a cheesy TV documentary.
I liked the casual self-contradiction of "They are the only animal in the world known to be able to kill a human by touch alone." ...followed by the very next paragraph describing how touching a different animal (a caterpillar) will also kill you.
All of this hype gets people worked up about remote possibilities of death from exotic animals. How many people worldwide are killed by all the animals in this list put together? Maybe a few dozen a year.
The real easy-to-miss killers are more mundane. I'd put mosquitoes high up on the list, since the diseases they spread (malaria, typhoid, sleeping sickness, and many more) kill millions of people a year.

Shut up and come back when you've done some research.
Among all the posts of Dark Roasted Blend, an absolutely great site, the frequent Russian posts are distinguished by their almost uniform excellence. Speaking just for myself, but I suspect many others too, I would love to see a specialized DRB "Best of Russia" site.
And please, let's stop name calling and rudeness not only on DRB, but all forums.
Best of Russia, eh?
Probably worth a separate category... good idea.
You sure about that 75000 horsepower figure? That seems rather low. A single 747 engine gets about twice that.
That's what quoted on "Quark" site. Wiki also mentions 171 megawatt output for each reactor.
Nuclear-powered icebreakers? North Pole? Which travel agency I have to go to?
This is simply an amazing post. The photography is more than outstanding. Such huge icebreakers and sitting so low in the water.....2 nuke reactors on one ship.....WOW!
Wow, that was one of the best post from the past few days (along with the radioactive mines exploration one.)
The part with the bears is so sweet! (pun)
171 megawatts * 2 is much more reasonable!
171 megawatts = 229314 horsepower
2 * 171 megawatts = 458629 horsepower

Sure, theres no such thing as global warming...
...And the earth is, of course, flat.
Hopefully, you got the sarcasm. Instead of mindlessly regurgitating a political line, perhaps educating yourself would be a good idea. (As its obvious your IQ score wouldn't even buy a candy bar).
Global warming .. I agree with Mr Anonymous...this was the coldest Winter in 80 years for the entire globe. Maybe you should quit buying the party line and start doing some research. Back in the 1970's we were headed into a new ice age...everyone freaked out like you are now. Don't kid yourself, the planet is a lot bigger and has more staying power than you do/will.
Great photos !!
What a bunch of jerks for feeding the bears condensed milk in a can. Firstly, the bear runs a risk of choking to death, secondly, the metal can tear its mouth and internal organs to shreds, and lastly, must we pollute every nook and cranny on this bloody planet?
What an amazing piece. Thank you very much for posting this.
There has been some global warming, just as there has been global cooling in the past and the cycles have continued since there has been an earth.
The new thing is the effort to blame any slight uptick trend on humans and the motivation is political, economic, and sociological because even if we were 100% to blame the situation could not be stopped, let alone reversed, without less than the entire world human population reverting to hunting/gathering and eschewing fire to cook the game--for hundreds of years. We might then see a tiny change of no significance.
It's the sun, stupid.
It's also global elites manipulating the masses to achieve goals that failed by other means.
Anonymous, you obviosuly have never had sweetened condensed milk. Giving it to the bears is the best thing that could ever have happened to them (the bears, I mean).
$23K for two weeks on an icebreaker, hmm. I didn't know you could buy a ticket on an icebreaker at all. I'd love to hear if anyone knows about any cheaper ways to get a ride on an icebreaker.
thanks
Don't blame global warming,blame the icebrakers for loseing the part of the ice-cap on top of the world which help the global image of depleeting ice formation,slicing in a straight line to the North Pole...don't blame the hunters of the Arctic on polar bear depleation...
Those were not mammoth bones but Bow head whale bones...as usual false information...probiganda to blame the innocent habitants,shame...
what is less known is that good share of Soviet-now-Russian icebreakers were done in Finland as part of their post-WWII retribution.
A skeptic of the global warming alarmists leaves a comment, and everyone starts hurling insults?
Did it ever occur to you that there are scientists who are skeptical of global warming? I guess you'll tell me that those are stupid scientists, simply because they don't believe what you think they should? Don't assume that anyone who disagrees is just ignorant.
For some valid arguments, and SCIENTIFIC DATA against the global warming scare, visit
http://www.globalwarminghoax.com/about
Unless you're just too afraid that you might be wrong.
What is also less known is that those MIR deep sea subs are both made in Finland. Based on the quality of the soviet/russian tech I presume that the only thing soviet that made its way to the north pole were the crews on board.
Great pics, and I'm sure it was a thrill to feed the bears, but why did you give them a CAN? I'm sure that feeding them a can that will get chewed into sharp chunks of metal is a great way to help an endangered species. To the guy that said this was the best thing that ever happened to the bears; What the hell are you talking about? A slow painful death is good?
Ya, about the milk. Why didn't they just freeze it on deck, cut it open then throw them the chunk of iced milk? Not like they had no means of freezing a can of condensed milk and I KNOW they had time. You'd think a crew of engineers would have a little more ingenuity. Those pictures are really great.
have you ever stop for sec to think it could be possible that somone accildentally drop the can? jus maybe this friendly japanesse were drinking some in the edge of de ship to admire the viw and his wife in a lovely hug make him drope it? we most learn to see beyond our sight....golobal warming? who knows,most of the humans do nothing about serious problems such as disease, hungry nacions,etc...i guess you took that for granted....stop fighting and beeing disrespectful to others...do something about it.
