New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Florida is one of the most dangerous places in the world due to the attacks of sharks. There were 701 shark attacks worldwide between 2004 and 2014, according to data from the International Shark Attack Archive. And of these, 219 attacks occur in Florida, surpassing other famous dangerous places like Hawaii, Australia and South Africa. New Smyrna Beach tops Florida’s hazardous beaches chart, with the most attacks per square mile.

Yosemite Half Dome, United States. Only the most intrepid explorers can try the last 120 meters of the half-vault of Yosemite Valley, which is a nearly vertical face. Climbers must use metal wires to help themselves to the top: about 60 people died in the Half Dome, many falling into the damp stone of the rocky cliff bottom known as the “slabs of death.” Recently, two adventurers managed to defeat him in a difficult type of free climbing.

9. Cliffs of Moher, Ireland

Cliffs of Moher, Ireland. These stunning cliffs boast incredible views of the Atlantic Ocean, which can be fatal to tourists due to the lack of handrails. It is a very popular tourist destination and attracts one million visitors per year. They are home to about 30,000 birds of more than 20 species.

10. Colorado River, United States.

Colorado River, United States. It is a river that covers parts of seven states in the United States, and two Mexican states. Despite being one of the most spectacular river systems visually, accidents and deaths are common: only in the first seven months of last year there were 15, caused by rapid water currents.
