This is one of the rare natural phenomenon. There is the Bleeding Waterfall. Actually, there is a water source from the waterfall flows blood. It comes continually. It is found at a glacier in MC Murdo valley South Polar region Antarctic. The first, time a geologist found a frozen waterfall in 1911 and they met the strange things. The color red is the color that flows red algae, but the true character was more than our expectation.


Approximately 2 million years ago trapped bellow Taylor Glacier water stream containing a collection of ancient microbes, and they were isolated under a very thick layer of icenaturally. It developendently, these microbes lived without light, heat, oxygen and they were caught at a very high salinity conditions and rich of iron. It provided red color similar to iron in the blood.


Natural phenomena are very strange and rare, a waterfall dropping such a continuousblood.
