40 Incredible Pictures That Are Almost Too Interesting
I like the internet for a lot of reasons, and one of my favorites is that it never stops showing me things I had no idea about, usually in picture form.
To be fair, I seek this stuff out. I like perusing the interesting corners of the web to scratch that itch. I’ll probably never attempt to climb Mount Everest, but there are enough pictures online to show me what it’s like. Spoiler alert: there’s a lot of garbage near the top, but the view is incredible.
Now that I’ve seen the pictures, I don’t ever need to climb it myself. That’s just one example of the things you can see on r/Damnthatsinteresting, a subreddit dedicated to the most fascinating stuff people come across. It’s like mildly interesting, but on steroids.
