The Dead Sea, the lowest place on earth, at 1200 feet below sea level.
At 28% mineral, nothing can live in it. And it's impossible to do anything but float. The only way to drown is by swallowing the water, which will then go straight to your lungs.
Shrinking by 1 foot a year, it is 40 miles long, 8 miles wide, and 900 feet deep at the deepest part. Sodom and Gomorrah was somewhere near the southern end, but it has never been found... because when God wants to destroy something, He does.
When it rains in Jerusalem, half of the water runs out to the Dead Sea. During rainy season, there are literally waterfalls in the desert.
Swimming in it is really fun... and kinda trippy... and afterwards your skin feels AMAZING. #apictureadayofIsrael #israel
