What If the World Lost Oxygen For Five Seconds?
Think about if all the oxygen of the earth disappeared. Not forever, just 5 seconds? This is WHAT IF, and what will happen here if the world loses oxygen for just 5 seconds. Take a deep breath. Realize how satisfying it is? What you are breathing is oxygen that takes up about 21% of our atmosphere, which contains 78% nitrogen. Although it is not the most abundant gas in our atmosphere, it is the most important. Without oxygen, plants, animals, water, and we humans would not be where we are today. 5 seconds may not seem like a lot of time to be without oxygen. Most of us can go for at least 30 seconds without breathing, so ... it will be faster for your body to notice. Your breath will be really normal. But as for everything?
Shocking What If the World Lost Oxygen for Five Seconds?
Not so much. In just 5 seconds, the Earth will look completely different. Without oxygen, you can say goodbye to the Hoover Dam, the Pantheon Dome, and anything else made of concrete. These structures will collapse immediately. Oxygen acts as a special binding agent for concrete. Without it, concrete is just dust. Talking about buildings, any untreated metal will be added together immediately. This is because metals have a layer of oxidation that prevents them from welding together. Without that layer, metals would immediately bond to each other. If you are relaxing on the beach in time, expect hard sunshine. The ozone layer, our protection against the sun's UV rays, is made up of oxygen. Remove oxygen, and the Earth will become extremely dangerous. There is nothing to protect us from the sun's UV rays. Apart from sunburn, our inner ear will explode. Losing oxygen means 21% of our air pressure. A drastic change in air pressure is equivalent to being at sea level and falling immediately below 2000 m. Our ears will not get enough time for adaptation. Have a good time yet? Well, it is not expected to last long. Without oxygen, there is no fire. The combustion process will not be possible in vehicles. Any mode of transport that is not electric will fail automatically. Plans will fall from the sky, and millions of trains will be stopped in their tracks. The sky will be completely dark. Light from the sun bounces off many particles in the air before it collides with the Earth. Without oxygen in the atmosphere, there are fewer things to bounce off, and the sky will look dark. Oh yes, and when all this is happening, the earth's crust will be completely uprooted. This is because the earth's crust is made up of 45% oxygen. The crust will crumble and will continue to erupt until there is nothing left, sending you and everyone to the planet in a free-fall. sound like fun? Probably right there. But fortunately, you can take a deep breath of 21% oxygen, knowing that it will never happen. For more things that are fun to speculate on.
