Top 5 Sights In the World
The document lists the top 5 sights in the world: 1) the Pyramids of Egypt, 2) the Grand Canyon in the USA, 3) the Great Wall of China, 4) the Taj Mahal in India, and 5) Serengeti National Park in Kenya/Tanzania.

Some Mysteries of the World.
This presentation includes mysteries about three very famous sealed cases like The Black Hole, MH370 and Aliens.
The unsolved mystries
This presentation covers several mysterious phenomena including the Yeti, Loch Ness Monster, UFOs, Atlantis, and crop circles. For the Yeti, DNA analysis of a hair sample found it belonged to a brown bear, suggesting sightings are misidentifications of local wildlife. Analysis of film from Loch Ness in 1934 concluded the "monster" was actually a species of eel. Studies of UFOs have been conducted by various government organizations but their existence remains undeclared. Atlantis is considered by many to just be a story, though some believe it was real. Crop circles are also discussed but no explanation is provided.

For a long period, all beings existed in darkness between Heaven and Earth.

Early humans
Hominids first appeared around 3 million years ago in Africa. Early humans like Lucy had evolved to walk upright but did not make tools. Later hominids known as Handy Man were the first to use stone tools. Upright Man was able to control fire, allowing them to cook food and expand where they lived. Cro-Magnon man was an advanced early human that lived in Europe, worked together in tribes, stored food, and made clothing and art, painting in deep caves though the purpose remains a mystery.
