This blood waterfall is located in the Taylor Valley of Victoria, Antarctica. Blood water bounces out from under the glacier and flows continuously for thousands of meters along the icy river. The scene is very spectacular. Due to the infusion of blood, the entire glacial river was dyed red, and when viewed from the universe, it looked like a red ribbon hanging on the ice of Antarctica.

Scientists have discovered through research that the water source of this blood waterfall comes from a frozen high-salt lake 400 meters below the glacier. The lake water is subjected to formation pressure to send the water pressure to the surface of the glacier, bursting out, forming a waterfall flow. This principle of spraying water from groundwater to the surface exists in many areas, but the difference is that the water from this high-salt lake turned out to be blood red, which has to be reminiscent of the wounds of the earth. bleed.

Scientists conduct sampling tests on the water in the blood waterfall. The test results show that the water is rich in iron oxides, making the water dark red, hence the name "blood waterfall". The Taylor Valley is part of the McMurdo Dry Valley. The Taylor Glacier is located at the western end of the valley. The water of the Blood Falls comes from a frozen high-salt lake about 400 meters below the glacier. The lake water is rich in sulfur and iron compounds. These iron-rich lakes flow from the cracks in the glacier, and the iron is rapidly oxidized by oxygen in the air, forming this wonder.
