The dead sea is one of the saltiest waters in the world. it is said that when you bathe here even if you don’t know how to swim you will not drown because you will just float and besides that the mud in the dead sea is also said to cure skin diseases and is good for human health in fact, it became the first health resort it in the world. what is the scientific explanation why it is easier to float in the dead sea? And why is it called the dead sea? The dead sea can be seen between Jordan and Israel, the truth is that it is not really a sea, the dead sea is a salt lake. the dead sea is a hypersaline lake which means that its salinity or salt is very high, its salinity level is 34%. and 10 times higher than the sea. due to too much salt in the water it becomes denser than typical sea water, the salt content is higher and the buoyancy is high which is why something floats in the water. according to scientists the density of water in the dead sea is 1240kg/m3 while the average density in the human body is approximately 985kg/m3 the density of the human body is lower relative to the water density of the dead sea so you will really float here effortlessly. because the dead sea is so dense, it’s thick and it’s like you’re swimming in olive oil.
