Last summer police officers from Edmonton, Canada, investigated one of the weirdest cases in the history of the department. A twenty-year-old boy woke up in shock to find that he was engulfed in flames. According to witnesses the blaze started spontaneously on his body. The victim was treated for second-degree burns at a local hospital, and all the doctors who reviewed his case said they have never seen anything like it and can’t explain it. -

This is the very latest find to hit the web about the recent missions to Mars. As you can clearly see in the photo taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover, there’s a clear shadow of an actual person working on repairing the rover while standing right next to it. Most conspiracy theorists have jumped to various conclusions with the two most popular being that either a human is already capable of traveling to and living on Mars, or that the mission is a hoax and that the rover never even went there, and all these photos have been taken at the same studio where the moon landing was shot. -
3.
The Harbour Mille incident wasn’t just another bizarre UFO story but the reported sightings of multiple unidentified flying objects during the night of January 25, 2010, near Harbour Mille, Canada. At least three UFOs were spotted and according to the descriptions of various witnesses, the objects looked like missiles but emitted no noise. A resident managed to take a photograph of one of the objects. -
4.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission failed to figure out the reason behind the death of dozens of turtles in Keystone Heights in January 2012. Locals noticed the dead turtles at the end of Pinon Road and after further investigation, experts ruled out traumatic death as the cause. -
5.
A strange report emerged from Chile in 2013 detailing sightings of a peculiar winged creature. The young man, who witnessed the mysterious animal flying between two trees near Bustamante Park in Santiago, Chile, described it pretty much as a cross between Batman and Dracula: bat-like wings, a beak full of razor-sharp teeth, tearing claws, and a long tail with a flanged end. Was this flying reptile a figment of the young man’s imagination or does it provide living proof that prehistoric creatures still exist? -
6.
A twenty-three-year-old student whose name has not been disclosed has fallen victim to one of the most extreme recorded cases of déjà vu ever. According to his own claims, he has such a strong sensation of having done things before that he can barely function and recently had to drop out of college. Although no official explanation has been given for his condition, according to psychology expert Dr. Christine Wells, this could be the first-ever recorded instance of psychogenic déjà vu, which could be triggered by anxiety rather than a neurological condition such as dementia or epilepsy. -
7.
A ring-shaped crater was first spotted about two months ago by geophysicist Christian Muller in Antarctica’s King Baudoin Ice Shelf during a routine survey flight over the region in December. The mystery surrounding this 2 km ice ring in Antarctica led Muller and his team to discover two previous studies pertaining to a large meteorite around the size of a house that was believed to have landed somewhere in the Antarctic back in 2004. The researchers now believe that the ice ring they found might be the impact site of a meteorite that struck the area 11 years ago. -
8.
In 2011 two American treasure hunters began searching Lake Michigan for gold. What they found instead were the long-lost remains of a seventeenth-century ship that they believed to be the Griffin, a vessel built by French explorer Robert de La Salle in 1679. The newly discovered wreck, however, has turned out to be somewhat of a mystery as experts have been unable to agree on whether it’s actually the ship the treasure hunters claim it is or something that hasn’t even been historically recorded. -
9.
Recently, a very strange and unusual natural phenomenon occurred that most experts can’t explain. The entire sand volume at Porthleven in Cornwall (UK) mysteriously disappeared due to a freak tide, but after a second high tide a few hours later, the entire sand volume was re-deposited on the beach, returning it to its original state. -
10.
Many researchers from universities in the US, UK, and Poland have recently found that different types of icebergs can be identified from their acoustic signatures. By placing underwater microphones near the Hans Glacier in Svalbard (in the Arctic Ocean), they were able to monitor the process of ice breaking away from the main flow. Although they all agree that this natural phenomenon is real, no one can explain how it occurs and so it remains a mystery -
11.
The strange burning object was sighted by multiple witnesses across two countries (Brazil and Argentina) last month. Most astronomers theorize this to be a comet though a certain explanation has not been found. -
12.
Few people in history have had the bad or good (depending on how you see it) luck of having a near-death experience during their lifetime but apparently that’s not the case for forty-nine-year-old Beverley Gilmour who has had over a thousand near-death experiences in the past thirty years! In 2013, doctors and scientists studying her condition, classified her incredibly unique case as the only known one in the world and have yet to give any logical explanation as to why this woman has been flirting with death over and over again. -
13.
On the day of the rare snowstorm in Libya in 2012, strange clouds, which looked like a tidal wave of cotton filling, “conquered” the sky above Panama City Beach. Was it a tidal wave of cotton filling? Or, according to the more extreme theorists, some ghostly aerodynamics maybe? The only sure thing is that the mysterious cloud formations in Panama City Beach that day had the weather world buzzing. -
14.
The strange sound heard throughout Costa Rica in 2012 became somewhat of a global phenomenon. On January 9, 2012, thousands of Costa Ricans awoke to a strange loud sound that emanated from the sky. Many frightened civilians called the authorities to report the apocalyptic-sounding hum but the lame explanation concerning the thunderous sound that they received left most of them even more suspicious. -
15.
A team of researchers who have been studying deer populations at the Xuan Lien Nature Reserve in Vietnam’s Thanh Hoa province were amazed when they rediscovered a species that disappeared over eighty-five years ago and hadn’t been seen for nearly a century. So far, they don’t have a scientific explanation for this bizarre development, which has caused many conspiracy theorists to label the situation as an unexplained “resurrection” of sorts. -
16.
A medical mystery surrounds the unexplained condition of twelve-year-old Landon Jones, a boy who never gets hungry or thirsty. The boy, from Cedar Falls, Iowa, noticed something was wrong when he woke up on October 14, 2013, feeling dizzy and suffering from chest congestion. A chest X-ray later showed he had a bacterial infection in his left lung, which later healed. However, ever since then, the boy has no physical desire to eat or drink, even though he can still taste and smell normally. Consequently, Landon’s weight has dropped dramatically and his parents have to constantly remind him to eat and drink. -
17.
In 2012 thousands of dead herring carpeted a stretch of coast in northern Norway and then (even more bizarrely) disappeared. The original estimations of twenty tons of dead fish couldn’t be verified simply because before the locals could start the official count, the fish disappeared. This phenomenon has yet to be explained. -

Following a hailstorm in England, tiny blue jelly-like spheres about 3 cm in diameter fell from the sky. After they rained down, the sky turned dark yellow. A local witness reported that he found a few spheres and noticed that they had an exterior shell and a softer inner one but did not smell, weren’t sticky, and did not melt. What were these spheres? We will probably never know.
