It might sound supernatural, but there is one very real object so deadly that even looking at it could get you killed.
Just 300 seconds in the room with the so-called ‘Elephant’s Foot’ will leave you with just two days to live.
This deadly mystery is a 2m wide lump of solidified lava formed from the molten core of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor.
Due to the intense radiation, only a handful of photos of the Elephant’s foot have ever been taken.
