THE HOTTEST RIVER IN THE WORLD

THE HOTTEST RIVER IN THE WORLD

It's really hot here. Is it really so hot? The story of the Amazon's boiling river is told here. While in Peru, I heard about a mysterious river that is so hot that it boils. It sounded too good to be true, but the locals said it's real. This is the hottest river in the world, and if you fall into it, you will die or get severe burns. We went to see, but be careful—this is the closest I've ever been to painting.

So I took a plane to the heart of the Amazon jungle to see it for myself. We arrived there and began a full day's hike to see this mystical river. Come guys, are you scared? No, just being cautious is called wow. You're being wise because, even in the jungle, this is the closest I've ever been to passing out. Can you imagine how wonderful my life has been? Yeah, your life has been extremely unsony. I always played it safe.

We boarded a boat and headed north. As we got closer, the river's temperature changed from cold to warm. Wow, you should have seen it; it was freezing outside, but in an instant the water heated up to a perfect temperature, making for a perfect jacuzzi. That's how we knew we were headed in the right direction. However, as we went on, we noticed animals in the water that had been boiled alive—look at this snake—so we knew we had to be careful if we fell in. What's for dinner? It's too real, too uncommon, and too lean for dinner.

We continued on and discovered plants that were unique to the Amazon by taking a detour into the bush. It seemed as if we were on a different planet. Why is it difficult to do this? Elin, it's going to get hotter and hotter again, and the smoke is making you feel like you're going to pass out. The steam is like a massive outdoor sauna, and there's no way out. Indeed, she was right when she claimed it was how we knew we had reached our destination.

The Amazon's boiling river was ninety-three degrees Celsius at its center. You could drink tea straight from the river since it's so hot. It's so hot that you could cook an egg in it and have it for breakfast. I nearly passed out when I got too close to it because it was so hot. It feels amazing to be as close to fainting as I've ever been. This is even more unusual because it's not a volcano. It's geothermal water heated by the earth's interior, 100 percent natural, and incredible. Whoa, this is really hot. Yes, isn't it hot? I'm not kidding, but this is kind of like, "Oh, if you fool me, I think you should try it." Amazing, I can't believe you attempted touching the water in my neck. You must; it's a necessary element of the work, fantastic.

It's insanely hot right now.

This river is sacred to the natives, who use it for spiritual healing. They maintain it and guarantee that it is protected territory. The world's hottest river can kill you if you approach it too closely, but if you treat it with kindness and care, as the locals do, it can become your best friend. If you're interested in the world's hottest river, you should also be interested in the deforestation occurring in the Amazon right now, based on what I observed there.

I adore Amaro Mayu's work because it is helping to preserve the Amazon rainforest and its people. They are bringing super fruits that the indigenous people of Peru and the Amazon have enjoyed for thousands of years and putting them in bottles to sell to the rest of the world without causing any damage to the rainforest. They are also using the super fruits to make delicious and healthy juices, and by doing this, Amaro Mayu is enabling the indigenous people to harvest, preserve, and protect the rainforest in a sustainable manner. We should all support a company that preserves their home, the Amazon rainforest, so that breathtaking locations like the Boiling River will be accessible for a very long time. Visit amadomayo.com to learn more about them, and we sincerely appreciate you watching the movie.
