Two engineers take a break at the top of The Swarm
Engineers carry out safety checks on rollercoasters and other rides at Thorpe Park, Surrey, Britain - 26 Feb 2013
Engineers with a real head for heights are seen carrying out safety checks on the rides at Thorpe Park in Surrey. The park's rollercoasters are scary enough at the best of times, but imagine 'riding' them without the aid of a carriage and with just a few safety ropes. That's exactly what these specially trained engineers are doing ahead of the park's reopening on 14th March. Using harnesses and ropes to scale the rides, they methodically check each section - even at the very top!

A swarm of ants attack an unlucky fly
Macro photographs showing ants at work by Andiyan Lutfi, Cibinong Village, Indonesia - 13 Jan 2011
They may seem small and harmless but these ants proved they were a force to be reckoned with when a fly strayed into their territory. The insect may have been double the size of its attackers but it didn't seem to stand a chance against them. The extraordinary spectacle is part of a series of macro photographs, showing the tiny creatures in breathtaking detail that would not normally be detectable with the naked eye. Amateur photographer Andiyan Lutfi snaps the incredible shots at his own home in Cibinong Village, Indonesia. In one of his photographs a group of hungry ants clamour to get their hands on a delicious chocolate brownie he had left on a pile of leaves.

'Like sending bees to war': the deadly truth behind your almond milk obsession. Bees are essential to the functioning of America’s titanic almond industry – and billions are dying in the process.
'Like sending bees to war': the deadly truth behind your almond milk obsession. Bees are essential to the functioning of America’s titanic almond industry – and billions are dying in the process. A recent survey of commercial beekeepers showed that 50 billion bees – more than seven times the world’s human population – were wiped out in a few months during winter 2018-19. This is more than one-third of commercial US bee colonies, the highest number since the annual survey started in the mid-2000s.
Beekeepers attributed the high mortality rate to pesticide exposure, diseases from parasites and habitat loss. However, environmentalists and organic beekeepers maintain that the real culprit is something more systemic: America’s reliance on industrial agriculture methods, especially those used by the almond industry, which demands a large-scale mechanization of one of nature’s most delicate natural processes. Pictured: Beehives stand along a blooming almond orchard near Shafter, in California. Honeybees pollinate many crops, including almond trees in February, and are essential to the food chain. Bees are vanishing at an alarming rate in 24 states throughout the United States. (Photo by Ann Johansson/Corbis via Getty Images)
