<p style="margin-left:0.0px;">We are all used to traditional beauty contests, during which models impress with their beauty and charisma. However, it turns out that there are also original beauty contests, the photos of which will shock you!</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Miss Beautiful Ape</strong></p><div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe src="https://assets.pinterest.com/ext/embed.html?id=108016091040188343" height="399" width="450" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></div><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">The contest "Miss Beautiful Ape" took place in 1972. It coincided with the release of the film Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. It wasn't a simple beauty contest, but an original casting for the main role of the Planet of the Apes franchise. The participants fulfilled all the standard requirements of beauty contests. The "Miss Beautiful Ape" contestants were dressed in bikinis and had monkey masks on their heads. The winner of the competition was Dominique Green. As the winner, she received a role in the upcoming film Battle for the Planet of the Apes.</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Miss Perfect Posture</strong></p><div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe src="https://assets.pinterest.com/ext/embed.html?id=411868328395842731" height="461" width="450" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></div><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">From 1956 to 1969, the “Miss Perfect Posture” competition was held in the USA. The emphasis was not on the girl's beauty, but on her correct posture. The girls stood near their X-ray pictures, done in three projections: standing straight, on the left, and on the right leg. The participants stood on special platforms that showed the weight distribution between two feet. The first competition winner, Louise Conway, had a perfect distribution - 50 for 50.</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Marilyn Monroe Look-Alike Competitions</strong></p><div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe src="https://assets.pinterest.com/ext/embed.html?id=136515432442570257" height="465" width="450" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></div><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">Marilyn Monroe has been an undeniable sex symbol for many years! People around the world have been admiring her appearance for a long time. So it's not surprising that Marilyn Monroe's lookalike contests were quite popular at one time. They were held throughout the United States, and also abroad. In 1958 Marilyn Monroe's lookalike contests were held in Great Britain. The participants were measured by Marilyn Monroe cutouts to see if their figures matched that of the sexy star. The girl whose figure most closely resembled Marilyn's parameters became the winner.</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Miss American Vampire</strong></p><div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe src="https://assets.pinterest.com/ext/embed.html?id=144326363036592448" height="435" width="450" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></div><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">This original beauty pageant originated in 1970 as a promotional tool for the feature-length horror film House of Dark Shadows. Girls aged 18 to 25&nbsp; tried on the most sophisticated "vampire image" with originality, charm, and poise. Charisma and videogenicity were also important, as the competition winner received a weekly role on the TV show Dark Shadows.</p>

<p style="margin-left:0.0px;">The plane is considered one of the safest types of transport. However, sometimes there are accidents - during them, an oxygen mask and an inflatable vest can save lives. Interesting, why are there no parachutes for passengers on board? If they had an opportunity to jump out of a falling plane with a parachute, there would be more chances to survive. Or not? Let's analyze!</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Most accidents occur during takeoff or landing</strong></p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">It turns out that there are several reasons why there are no parachutes on the plane. Most emergencies occur at the time of takeoff and landing of the aircraft. In this case, it's dangerous for passengers to use a parachute because it won't open in time and the person will crash.</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Unsustainable conditions outside the plane</strong></p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">If the plane breaks down at altitude, parachutes won't save the passengers' lives either. At a standard altitude gain, the temperature outside is from -40 to -60°C, and there's practically no oxygen. In such conditions, a person cannot survive even with a parachute.</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Panic prevents evacuation</strong></p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">In life-threatening situations, only some people can overcome panic, put on the parachute correctly, get to the jump site in an organized manner, and use the device properly. In addition, the movement of the plane is quite difficult. Due to the high speed of the falling plane, the parachutist will die.</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>It's too expensive</strong></p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">A parachute costs about $1,000. So that you can understand more concretely, the Airbus A320 aircraft has 180 seats - that is, it's +180 thousand dollars to the price of the aircraft's configuration. The cost of parachute kits for 100-500 people on each flight will be very significant, and will inevitably raise ticket prices. In addition, there will be less space on the plane, and passengers will have nowhere to store their luggage.</p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;"><strong>Not enough time</strong></p><p style="margin-left:0.0px;">The fall of the plane takes up to 90 seconds. It's impossible to leave it in this time in an organized manner, with a parachute ready and in full force. As much as we would like to refute these claims, we won't succeed.</p>
