World's Most TOXIC Islands HD

Although islands may be a good choice for a place to escape to during the zombie apocalypse. You have to choose wisely! The natural boundary of oceans or rivers seems to make people feel that these islands are good place to test out nuclear weapons, leave toxic waste or even completely engulf them in waste. Here are the World’s Most Toxic Islands Subscribe to American Eye http://goo.gl/GBphkv 5. Izu Islands If you got to wear gas masks on an island, you should probably consider it toxic. These are some of Japan’s volcanic islands which often spew sulfur gas into the air. The islands themselves are beautiful but there is a serious problem! With increased levels of volcanic gases, residents of these islands ha ve to wear some creepy gas masks just about all the time.

Gruinard Island Located Northwestern Scotland this oval shaped island is only about a mile wide and half mile long. But it’s been home to some mysterious incidents in the past. It was once full of trees but it is now completely treeless. In 1942, British military scientists chose this island as a testing site for biological weapons during the 2nd World War. In order to test Anthrax as a weapon of mass destruction, it was bombarded with several anthrax bombs, using sheep as their test dummies. To no one’s surprise, all the sheep died. In 1945, the man who owned the island, wanted his land back but the British Ministry of Supply claimed that the island was now unfit for human inhabitation.

A lot of shady stuff seemed to go on here and many nuclear and biological weapons were stored here. This place was artificially constructed in top secrecy in order for it to expand from a small reef.. The area was used for atmospheric nuclear testing as well.. and on July 9th 1962, 1,4 megaton explosion was detonated at an altitude 250 miles, resulting in an electromagnetic pulse. This was dubbed operation “Starfish Prime” and it created a massive fireball in the sky a knocking out communications as far away as Hawaii. Many Shady Experiments took place here that we might get to in some fut
