Sometimes the most incredible things happen on our planet. We are somehow used to fantastic and mystical stories, so we do not always believe in miracles. mysterious phenomena happen in reality. There is irrefutable evidence for this. What are the megalithic structures scattered all over the planet worth! Whatever theories put forward by scientists, they cannot explain their origin. There are other artifacts that also do not fit into existing theories and paradigms. Let's talk about them.

ice woman

This story can surpass in incredible improbability any other mysterious phenomena.

It was in Langby, Minnesota. It was a cold frosty day. The temperature dropped so low that it was scary to go outside. At such a time, Jean Hilliard, a nineteen-year-old girl, was discovered. She was completely frozen. The limbs did not bend, the skin froze. She was sent to the hospital. The doctors were amazed. The girl was an ice statue. The mystical phenomena demonstrated by the young organism were just beginning. Doctors were sure that the girl would die. And even if the situation developed in a positive direction, she was threatened with amputation of limbs, a long serious illness. However, after a couple of hours, Jean came to her senses, thawed out. She had no consequences of "freezing". Even the frostbite is gone.

Delhi: iron pillar

Mysterious phenomena can occur with the most ordinary, at first glance, materials. Well, who are you going to surprise with iron these days? And if you say that it was made more than one and a half thousand years ago?

Of course it's incredible. However, in Delhi there is a structure that already adorns the city. It is made of pure iron. This is a seven meter high column. It is not subject to corrosion. Some experts believe that it could not be made on earth in those days. However, such an artifact exists. It must be indicated when describing the Photo, unfortunately, does not reflect all the incredible majesty and significance of this structure. By the way, studies have shown that the column is 98% iron. Ancient people were not able to obtain material of such purity. This is a complex technological process.

Carroll A. Deering

Mystical phenomena often occur in the ocean. The Flying Dutchmen have been talked about for centuries. Not all stories are true, of course. But there are also documented facts.

So, an interesting and mysterious fate befell the crew of the schooner with the name "Carroll A. Deering". She was discovered on the very last day of 1921. Since she gave the impression of a ship in distress, rescuers went to her. Their amazement, mixed with horror, is simply impossible to convey. There was not a single person on the schooner. But there were also no signs of disaster or catastrophe. Everything looked as if people disappeared suddenly, without having time to understand what had happened. They just evaporated. They took with them personal belongings and a ship's log, although they left cooked food in place. No explanation has been found for this fact.

Hutchison effect

A person creates some mysterious phenomena with his own hands, having no idea how it turns out.

So, John Hutchison was a great admirer of Nikola Tesla. He tried to reproduce his experiments. The results were as unpredictable as they were incredible. He received a fusion of metal with wood, small objects disappeared during the experiment. The most significant of the effects was levitation. The scientist was even more puzzled by the fact that he could not repeat the result, that is, some mystical, non-linear events occurred. NASA specialists tried to repeat the experiments, but to no avail.

viscous rain

There were even more incredible, mysterious phenomena on Earth. Among these, one can safely classify the unusual rain that fell on the heads of the inhabitants of Oakville (Washington). Instead of drops of water, they found jelly. The puzzles didn't end there. All the inhabitants of the town fell ill. They developed symptoms of a cold. Jelly guessed to explore. White bodies were found in it, which are part of human blood. How this could happen, scientists could not figure out. In addition, two types of bacteria were identified in the jelly, which did not explain the symptoms of the disease of the local residents. This phenomenon has remained unexplained.

vanishing lake

The mysterious phenomena of nature sometimes look like a fiction of a science fiction writer. Neither mystics nor scientists can find an explanation for them. In 2007, a lake in Chile threw such a riddle. It was not a puddle with a loud name, but rather a large body of water. It was five miles long! However, it disappeared without a trace! Geologists had explored it two months before. No deviations were found. But there was no water. There were no earthquakes or other natural disasters, but the lake was gone. A more or less acceptable explanation for the event was given by ufologists. According to their version, the aliens pumped him out and took him to their "unknown distances".

Animals in stone

Some of the mysterious ones are millions of years old.

So, there are documented cases when frogs were found inside solid cobblestones. But this can still be explained. But the fact of finding a turtle immured in concrete, where it lived for at least one year, is difficult to substantiate. It happened in Texas in 1976. The animal was alive and well. There were no cracks or holes in the concrete. However, this structure was filled a year ago. How and why the turtle existed in the air chamber all this time is not clear.

Donnie Decker

The existence of a boy capable of generating water has been documented! His name was Donny. He could "make it rain" indoors. The first time it happened was when the boy was visiting. He went into a trance, as a result of which water began to pour from the ceiling, and the whole room was covered with fog. Another time this happened a few years later, when Donnie visited a restaurant. The miracle did not impress the owner, and he drove the teenager out. But these two episodes could be called fiction. However, there was also a third case. It happened in prison, where Donnie got for The rain poured directly from the ceiling of his cell. Neighbors began to complain. Donnie did not lose his head and once again demonstrated his abilities to the guards. Where he went after his release is unknown. They say that he worked as a cook.

There are many more amazing things happening in the world. There are people who claim to have seen aliens. Others may sense the future. Others see through walls. Schools have arisen and exist that are engaged in the development of superpowers in ordinary people. Probably, in order to “feel” this unknown, one must believe in it. Then it will become clear that miracles exist! They are real!

Scientists have been trying to solve many mysteries of the natural world for many centuries, but some phenomena still baffle even the best minds of mankind.
These phenomena, ranging from strange flashes in the sky after earthquakes to rocks that spontaneously move across the ground, seem to have no definite meaning or purpose.
Here are 10 of the strangest, most mysterious and incredible phenomena found in nature. 1. Reports of bright flashes during earthquakes
Light flares that appear in the sky before and after an earthquake

One of the most mysterious phenomena is the inexplicable flashes in the sky that accompany earthquakes. What causes them? Why do they exist?
The Italian physicist Cristiano Feruga collected all observations of flashes during earthquakes dating back to 2000 BC. For a long time, scientists were skeptical about this strange phenomenon. But everything changed in 1966, when the first evidence appeared - photographs of the Matsushiro earthquake in Japan.
Now there are a great many such photographs, and the flashes on them are so different colors and shapes that it is sometimes difficult to distinguish a fake.


Among the theories to explain this phenomenon are heat caused by friction, radon gas, and the piezoelectric effect, an electrical charge that builds up in quartz rocks when tectonic plates move.
In 2003, NASA physicist Dr. Friedemann Freund conducted a laboratory experiment and showed that flashes may be caused by electrical activity in rocks.
The shock wave from an earthquake can change the electrical properties of silicon and oxygen-containing minerals, allowing them to conduct current and emit light. However, some believe that the theory may be only one possible explanation.

2. Nazca drawings
Huge figures painted in the sand in Peru by ancient people, but no one knows why


The Nazca lines stretching over 450 sq. km of coastal desert, are huge works of art left on the Peruvian plains. Among them are geometric figures, as well as drawings of animals, plants and, rarely, figures of people that can be seen from the air in the form of huge drawings.
They are believed to have been created by the Nazca people during a 1000 year period between 500 B.C. and 500 AD, but no one knows why.
Despite its World Heritage status, Peruvian authorities have a hard time defending the Nazca Lines from settlers. Meanwhile, archaeologists are trying to study the lines before they are destroyed.


At first it was assumed that these geoglyphs were part of the astronomical calendar, but later this version was refuted. Then the researchers focused their attention on the history and culture of the people who created them. Whether the Nazca lines are a message to aliens or represent some kind of encrypted message, no one can say.
In 2012, Yamagata University in Japan announced that it would open an on-site research center and aim to study more than 1,000 drawings over 15 years.

3 Monarch Butterfly Migration
Monarch butterflies find their way through thousands of kilometers to certain places


Each year, millions of North American monarch butterflies migrate more than 3,000 km south to overwinter. For many years no one knew where they were flying.
In the 1950s, zoologists started tagging and tracking the butterflies and found that they were in the mountain forest of Mexico. However, even knowing that the monarchs choose 12 of the 15 mountainous places in Mexico, scientists still cannot understand how they navigate.


According to some studies, they use the position of the Sun to fly south, adjusting to the time of day according to the circadian clock of their antennae. But the Sun gives only a general direction. How they set up is still a mystery.
According to one theory, geomagnetic forces attract them, but this has not been confirmed. Only recently, scientists began to study the features of the navigation system of these butterflies.

4. Ball lightning
Fireballs that appear during or after a thunderstorm


Nikola Tesla allegedly created ball lightning in his laboratory. In 1904, he wrote that he "never saw fireballs, but he was able to determine their formation and reproduce artificially."
Modern scientists have not been able to reproduce these results.
Moreover, many are still skeptical about the existence of ball lightning. However, many witnesses, starting from the era of Ancient Greece, claim to have observed this phenomenon.

Ball lightning is described as a luminous sphere that appears during or after a thunderstorm. Some claim to have seen ball lightning pass through windowpanes and down a chimney.
According to one theory, ball lightning is a plasma, according to another, it is a chemiluminescent process - that is, light appears as a result of a chemical reaction.

5. Moving rocks in Death Valley
Stones that slide on the ground under the influence of a mysterious force


In the Racetrack Playa area of ​​Death Valley, California, mysterious forces push heavy rocks across the flat surface of a dry lake when no one is watching.
Scientists have puzzled over this phenomenon since the beginning of the 20th century. Geologists tracked 30 stones weighing up to 25 kg, 28 of which moved more than 200 meters over a 7-year period.
Analysis of stone tracks shows that they moved at a speed of 1 m per second and in most cases the stones slid in winter.
There were suggestions that wind and ice were to blame, as well as algae slime and seismic vibrations.


A 2013 study tried to explain what happens when the water on the surface of a dry lake freezes. According to this theory, the ice on the rocks stays frozen longer than the surrounding ice, as the rock removes heat faster. This reduces the friction force between the stones and the surface, and they are more easily pushed by the wind.
However, no one has yet seen the stones in action, and lately they have become immobile.

6. Earth rumble
An unknown hum that only some people can hear


The so-called "hum" is the name given to the annoying low-frequency noise that disturbs residents around the world. However, few people can hear it, namely only every 20th person.
Scientists attribute the "hum" to tinnitus, distant pounding waves, industrial noise, and singing sand dunes.

In 2006, a New Zealand researcher claimed to have recorded this anomalous sound.

7. Return of the cicada insects
Insects that suddenly woke up after 17 years to find a partner


In 2013, cicadas of the species Magicicada septendecim appeared from underground in the eastern United States, which had not been shown since 1996. Scientists don't know how the cicadas knew it was time to leave their underground habitat after 17 years of sleep.
Periodic cicadas are quiet and solitary insects that are buried underground most of the time. These are long-lived among insects, and they do not mature until they are 17 years old. However, this summer, they woke up en masse to breed.
After 2-3 weeks they die, leaving behind the fruits of their "love". The larvae burrow into the ground and a new life cycle begins.


How do they do it? How, after so many years, will they know it's time to appear?
Interestingly, 17-year-old cicadas appear in the northeastern states, and in the southeastern states, a cicada invasion occurs every 13 years. Scientists have suggested that such a life cycle of cicadas allows them to avoid meeting with their predator enemies.

8 Animal Rain
When different animals like fish and frogs fall from the sky like rain


In January 1917, the biologist Waldo McAtee presented his paper entitled "Raining from Organic Matter", which reported falling salamander larvae, small fish, herring, ants, and toads.
Rains of animals have been reported in different parts of the world. So, for example, in Serbia it rained frogs, in Australia perch fell from the sky, and in Japan - toads.
Scientists are skeptical about the rain of their animals. One explanation was proposed by a French physicist back in the 19th century: winds lift animals up and throw them to the ground.
According to a more complex theory, waterspouts suck out aquatic life, carry them around and make them fall in certain places.
However, there has been no scientific research to support this theory.

9. Stone balls of Costa Rica
Giant stone spheres whose purpose is not clear


Why the ancient people of Costa Rica decided to create hundreds of large balls of stone is still a mystery.
The Costa Rican stone balls were discovered in the 1930s by the United Fruit Company when workers were clearing land for banana plantations. Some of these perfectly spherical balls were up to 2 meters in diameter.


The stones, which the locals call Las Bolas, date back to 600 - 1000 AD. Further complicating the mystery of this phenomenon is the fact that there is no written data about the culture of the people who created them. This happened because the Spanish settlers erased all traces of the cultural heritage of the indigenous population.
Scientists began to study stone balls in 1943, marking their distribution. Later anthropologist John Hoopes disproved many theories explaining the purpose of the stones, including lost cities and space aliens.

10 Impossible Fossils
The remains of long-dead creatures that appear in the wrong place


Ever since the theory of evolution was announced, scientists have come across discoveries that seemed to challenge it.
One of the most mysterious phenomena has become fossil remains, especially the remains of people who appeared in unexpected places.
Fossilized prints and footprints have been found in geographical areas and archaeological time zones to which they did not belong.
Some of these discoveries may provide new information about our origins. Others turned out to be errors or hoaxes.


One example is the 1911 find, when archaeologist Charles Dawson collected fragments of a supposedly unknown ancient man with a large brain dating back 500,000 years. Piltdown Man's large head led scientists to believe he was the "missing link" between humans and apes.

Mankind has always been attracted by inexplicable phenomena. Scientists have established the following: this comes from the fact that such riddles are able to stimulate the human imagination. This article will introduce you to cases that defy explanation or logic.

vanished lake

On the territory of Chile, in Patagonia, in May 2007, the inexplicable happened - the lake disappeared. In its place, only a dry hole of thirty meters and icy mountains remained. It is worth noting that the lake was not small: its length was 5 miles. The most interesting thing is that geologists conducted an inspection at this place two months before the disappearance, in March of that year. Nothing unusual was found. During this short time, not only did the large lake disappear, but the river that flowed out of it turned into a small stream. Geologists are completely confused: what could have caused the disappearance? A variety of theories have been put forward. One of them seems quite acceptable: the lake disappeared as a result of an earthquake. But only in this area no tremors were recorded. To this day, this phenomenon has not found a scientific explanation.

ice girl

Jean Hilliard, aged nineteen, from Minnesota, was discovered in the early morning in the snow. Found her neighbor. The girl's body was completely frozen. Medics immediately took the victim to the hospital. What the doctors found is beyond comprehension: Jean's body was made of ice. The doctors were confused: they did not even know if such a degree of frostbite was possible. The limbs did not bend at all. Despite all the efforts of doctors, the situation remained critical. If the girl regained consciousness, most likely, the brain would be seriously damaged. And the legs would have to be amputated altogether. But two hours passed and the girl began to have severe convulsions, after which she came to her senses. The most interesting thing is that the patient did not complain about her health, neither physical nor psychological. Imagine the surprise of the doctors when, very slowly, frostbite “let go” of her limbs. The girl stayed in the hospital for 49 days, and then, safe and sound, went home.

Faces of Belmes

In the house of the Pereira family for 20 years, these persons appear for a very short time. The most remarkable thing is that they belong to both men and women. Interestingly, the expressions of these faces are constantly different. Experts are interested in this effect. They were interested in one important question: what exactly causes such a phenomenon. Not much time passed before the researchers found human remains under the foundation of the house. However, the faces continued to appear. Scientists have not explained the reason for the appearance of these faces.

Rain of jelly

In Washington, in the city of Oakville, on August 7, 1994, residents witnessed a real nightmare. It was not the expected rain that began to fall from the sky, but a jelly-like mass. After such a strange phenomenon, almost all the inhabitants fell ill: there were symptoms very similar to the flu. And they lasted quite a long time: from 7 weeks to 3 months. One of the residents sent a "piece of jelly" to the laboratory for research. Scientists were shocked: the composition of the "drops" included human white blood cells. In another laboratory, it was found that the mass also contained two types of bacteria. But the most incredible thing is that one of the species is present in the human digestive system. Until now, questions remain unanswered: what was this substance and how is it related to the spread of the disease?

There is one manifestation of the so-called "witchcraft" that has found practical application. - The dowser - This is both a miracle and a job. The phenomenon was widely known at the beginning of the last century as a prediction of the presence of groundwater. Here you can’t say that in the presence of underground waters, the twig in a person’s hand turns only because of some unknown chemical or biochemical ...

Throwing stones is one of the most common manifestations of a poltergeist. In his book, I. Vinokurov gave a detailed description of one of the first known cases of a poltergeist in Russia, which occurred in a shelter for beggars and vagabonds at the church on Kulichki in Moscow in 1666. The study of archival documents allowed the author to establish how this...

The inexplicable from real life, which took place at the beginning of the last century, has not yet found its declaration. On August 12, 1931, Angelo Faticoni, who was called the “cork man,” managed to stay afloat for fifteen hours, although twenty pounds of lead was tied to his ankles. Faticoni could sleep in the water, curled up, ...

In 1906, in several New York houses where Mary (Typhoid Mary) worked as a cook, diseases were observed that were reported as cases of typhoid fever. The case was investigated, in full accordance with what in 1906 was considered scientific knowledge. The theory of the microbiological origin of diseases prevailed. Nothing was said...

Spontaneous human combustion. At the beginning of the 20th century, several more mysterious cases occurred (and these are only those that have become public knowledge). And how many such incidents went unnoticed by the "general public", history is silent. Spontaneous human combustion in Blyth England At the end of March 1908, an incident was reported in London newspapers, which from the very...

The end of the century before last and the beginning of the last century were very rich in inexplicable cases. There are many reports of poltergeist phenomena that remain so obscure due to eyewitness bias that it is impossible to tell if they are stories of girls with supernatural powers or some invisible beings who reveal themselves in the presence of female mediums. But history...
