Our planet is full of strange, mysterious and mind-boggling places, animals, and phenomenons. All of these make one wonder how we as humans have progressed so much and yet we don't know much about the earth or its habitats.

Here is a collection of some amazing photos that will give you a new perspective.

1. Giant of the sea

Whales are the largest animals living on this planet. Some whales can weigh over 200 tons and are almost 100 feet long. Here you can see the comparison between a humpback whale and a human.

I like this

7. The smallest computer in the world

Yes, this is the world's smallest computer and it is even smaller than a grain of rice.

We love the spirit by this baby turtle as it's planning on eating a raspberry almost his size.

There is no need for a dog when you can have a huge, fluffy Flemish Giant rabbit.

Manute Bol is a former NBA player who used to dunk without jumping. After all, he was 7'7'' tall.

First of all, this is not a scene from a movie. Secondly, if you think a moose is harmless, we'll let you reconsider it.

I like this

As some crazier things happen in Canada, we can see a moose just taking a stroll. Maybe it is going to get bread and milk for breakfast.

I like this

Scientists have confirmed that its huge size doesn't help it walk fast.

36. Size matters?

In baseball, there is not much focus on height. So, if your height isn't much, it won't matter a lot if you know how to play.

I like this

The giant in the picture is Aaron Judge and the little guy is Jose Altuve.

37. Who knows aliens built it

40. Same amount different masses

So the big pile here is $1 bills and the small stack is $100 bills.

I like this

They are both the same amount and yet their masses are different. Long story short, money just never looked this smaller.

41. Both are running backs

This photo gives nightmares to opposing teams as one of them is Derrick Henry and the other is Dion Lewis.

I like this

Both play the running back position in the NFL and they are considered one tight unit that you don't want to mess with.
