35 Mind-Blowing Coincidences That Seem Impossible To Be Real My dad lives in a national park here in Australia. It's farmland that's grandfathered in. It's the remnants of a volcano that blew itself up very violently, so it's very hilly terrain.

One day we were sitting out on the deck, when we see a hang-glider come down halfway down the valley, and it didn't look like a nice landing. "S**t, we better see if he's alright, they don't land anywhere near here"

So we get in the car, drive for about 10 minutes to reach the spot. We head over to the guy who is standing by a very damaged glider. The pilot is staring at us incredulously, he stammers "F**k, Jack, is that you?".

My dad, who hasn't seen his childhood friend for 35 years shouts "F**k, Tim, is that you?".

They both grew up in Greymouth, NZ. Found each other randomly after a glider crash in NSW, Australia.

35 Mind-Blowing Coincidences That Seem Impossible To Be Real Not me, but a story I heard.

The guy telling the story was from the UK and on holiday in Greece. He went for a walk and passed a public phone, which started ringing. On a whim, he answers the phone... and it's his bank, calling him about some unusual activity on his account.

The bank starts asking him questions, but he's still taken aback by how his bank knew his location (this was in the early 90s), and asks them how they got this number. The bank tells him that it's the number they have on file. He tells them that can't be right, because he's in Greece, and this is a public phone box.

OK, so the bank tries to work out what happened. And then they realise. INSTEAD OF DIALLING HIS PHONE NUMBER, THEY ACCIDENTALLY DIALLED HIS ACCOUNT NUMBER... WHICH JUST HAPPENED TO BE THE EXACT NUMBER OF THIS PHONE BOX IN ANOTHER COUNTRY THAT HE ALSO JUST HAPPENED TO BE WALKING PAST AT THE EXACT SAME TIME THAT THEY CALLED.

What are the odds of that happening? Like 3 to 1 at least.

The most popular subreddit for questions and the second most popular of all is r/AskReddit. Currently, it has 49M members and this number doesn’t even account for people who visit and don’t join. Plenty of people ask questions on this subreddit daily, and while some don’t get that much attention, others pretty much go viral.

Today we’re going to discuss one of these viral questions. It was asked on the platform some time ago by a user whose account is sadly suspended. Still, the question gathered quite a lot of attention – over 8K likes and over 2.5K responses.

35 Mind-Blowing Coincidences That Seem Impossible To Be Real This guy I went to grade school and high school with, an acquaintance at best. I've seen him in 5 different locations in different countries throughout the last 15 years.

Disney World when I was a kid.

Some beach bar in Thailand.

The Bean in Chicago.

A pub in Budapest.

A library in San Jose, Costa Rica.

We've become friends due our love of traveling, but neither of us post on social media and neither of us communicated with each other our plans to travel. We never talked outside of the random meetings. Now if I see him, its like the world wants us to have a beer together. haha.

35 Mind-Blowing Coincidences That Seem Impossible To Be Real I passed out after receiving a flu shot when I was 28. The nurse who helped me up kept asking if I wanted my mom. It seemed like a really weird thing to offer an adult woman - the option to have her mother phoned and brought in - so I was really confused and getting progressively more annoyed at her repeatedly asking...

...until my mom walked up to me. She had the appointment after mine to get vaccinated. The nurses assumed we had come together, but neither of us knew about the other's appointment, and we lived an hour away from each other in different cities.

Some of these answers were about coincidences people experienced themselves. For instance, meeting the same person over and over again, encountering the individual they were just talking about, and so on.

Others talked about the coincidence phenomena they’re fascinated with. Like the Jim twins – two boys who were adopted by different families and years later reunited. Coincidentally, up until their reunion, the men lived nearly identical lives, which led to them having almost identical brain waves and personalities.

The Jim Twins. Look it up. Two twins who were given up for adoption at birth, given the same first name by their adoptive parents, took family vacations to the same beach, married women with the same name, divorced, their second wives' names were off by one letter, both served as volunteer sheriffs, both were into carpentry, both smoked the same brand cigarettes and drank the same brand beer.

Another phenomenon mentioned in this list is related to J. R. R. Tolkien. He died in 1973. When you reverse this number, you get 3791, which coincides with the One Ring verse (3 rings for the elven kings, 7 for the dwarf lords, 9 for men, and 1 ring to rule them all) from one of his books. Quite peculiar, isn’t it?

Some quite famous coincidences weren’t even mentioned in this list. For example, the one about the writer Mark Twain and the comet. He was born on November 30, 1835, when Halley’s comet came the closest to Earth.

Likely because of this, the writer himself predicted that he would “go out with the comet” when it returned next, which ended up kind of happening. M. Twain died on April 21, 1910, a day after the same comet’s closest approach.

35 Mind-Blowing Coincidences That Seem Impossible To Be Real My wife and I were looking to hire a caterer for our wedding and when we met, my wife and her started talking about their lives a bit.

Turns out they had both literally grown up on the same street, in a city of 10 million people, on the other side of the world. Both had left the city around a decade before immigrating to our current country.

They knew the same people, had hung out at the same coffee place, attended the same church. They even used to grab mangoes off the same large tree that hung over the wall of one of the large houses in the neighbourhood.

But they had never met one another until meeting on almost the exact opposite side of the planet, in a small town of about 50,000 people.

And that’s just one example. As these Medium and History.com articles show, there are plenty of other famous coincidences.

Well, the Reddit post said that these coincidences were supposed to make people question the fabric of reality. We don’t know whether these incidents or phenomena made anyone feel so extreme, but a peculiar feeling was almost guaranteed. For those who experienced them themselves, they were shaken enough to remember them for some time and then share them online.

35 Mind-Blowing Coincidences That Seem Impossible To Be Real Last week I am at work doing a job, my coworker strikes up a conversation with the homeowner at the job site and mentions that his parents live across the street from him, he also asks how long he had lived there. Homeowner responds that it has only been a few months, he just moved to the city from *small town several hours away*.

Co-worker laughs and says he was born and raised in that town. Then asks "Do you know the mini-plex at the corner of X street and Y street? I lived right across from that."

Homeowner looks confused, "do you mean at 103 X street? That was my house"

They talked more, and discovered that my coworkers parents had sold their house to this Homeowner when they moved to the city. He lived there for 15 years, and then sold it to move to the same city, across the street from the previous owners. Small world.

My wife was kind of hungry so we went to Buffalo Wild Wings at like 10 at night. This is a lone Bdubs in a town of like 50k people at 10 pm in the middle of the week. I walk in and see one of my friends, the one stationed in Japan. So we sit and catch up. about the time our food order had arrived friend 2 walked in.

35 Mind-Blowing Coincidences That Seem Impossible To Be Real My mum and I were heading out for a morning shopping trip so I was in the shower pretty early, around 7.15am or so. My grandpa had been ill with a cold - which could be concerning as he only had one lung - but was recuperating at home and had seemed perfectly fine when we spoke to him on the phone the previous day. Chipper, even. Yet out of *nowhere*, my brain suddenly went: "We're not going shopping, he's died". I have intrusive thoughts every so often so I just told myself to shut up and get on with the shampoo.

Five minutes later mum bangs on the door to tell me my grandpa had passed away in his sleep and we need to head over to his house.

I don't believe in psychics or precognition or anything like that, and I've never even thought of myself as a particularly perceptive person either. Like, I'm as dense as a brick most times. Which is why this still has me spooked fourteen years later.

So the chance of there NEVER being a dream that is in the same week as meeting that person, is not that high.

I have loved creating and writing down stories about people and things since I was little and I think this passion led me to get degrees in sociology, communication, and journalism. These degrees opened various paths for me, and I got a chance to be a volunteer in the human rights field, and also try myself out in social research and journalism areas. Besides writing, my passions include pop culture: music, movies, TV shows; literature, and board games. In fact, I have been dubbed a board games devotee by some people in my life.

My dad was a national park ranger and each summer I lived in Yosemite National Park. At the end of summer, we would pack all our stuff up in the truck and make the 350-mile drive back to home. One year while driving through the middle of the desert, we saw two guys hitchhiking. They had been riding their bikes on a long, multi-day trip and one of them had just gotten two flat tires. As we are driving past, my mother noticed that the guy with the flat tires was her younger brother. She had no idea he had been out on that trip & the chances of us driving by at the time he needed help on this very deserted road were very slim.

I was in the US Air Force and stationed at a base in Japan. One day I was walking somewhere on base and happened to run into a guy from my graduating class in my very small home town. That wasn't too surprising because at the time we graduated, the local economy was crashing and some people joined the military for the opportunities in it. The two of us were standing there chatting, and we starting talking about this other guy in our class who had been a total goofball who was always getting into trouble. I said “Oh yeah, I wonder whatever happened to him.” Right at the moment, we heard someone yell “Hey guys! What are you doing here?” We looked to the side and saw that guy walking toward us. That was when we found out what happened to him. He outranked both of us.

My daughter married the daughter of her dad's high school girlfriend. They hadn't seen each other in more than 39 years, after our kids got engaged. Crazy because we are from CO, son in law was raised in FL and they met in TX.

There's someone in my area (who I've never met) who has the exact same name as me. But that's not the crazy part (neither first name or surname is uncommon). The crazy part is that one night I got a call from a guy whose voice I didn't recognise but who knew my name. I asked who he was and he said "it's James!" and when I said "uh, who?" he seemed confused and said "it's your friend James!". I said I didn't have a friend called James. He at first acted like I was being silly for not recognising him, but we eventually figured out he was friends with the OTHER Beak Hookage. But that's STILL not the really crazy part. Because this was a call to a landline phone. At my parents' house, so the number was not listed under my name. My best guess (he hung up) is that he was calling every "Hookage" listed number in the phonebook in the hopes of tracking his friend Beak Hookage 2 down. Oh, and one other thing? Beak Hookage 2 also had a younger sister with the exact same name as my younger sister.

I should add that this was before everyone had a smartphone in their pocket and the internet wasn't that widely used either, so losing someone's number was pretty common.

My coincidence is the number 208. Every apartment I have ever lived in and most hotel rooms I have stayed in have been 208. I did not choose those places - they were just the ones available. My phone number, which I also did not choose, ends in 208. My flight numbers when travelling always have 208 in them , and I adopted a cat that had an ID tattoo #208. I could go on and on - yes, there's more. Wonder what that means?

I've told this before... I grew up overseas. The one kid in the compound we lived in was a princess or something. I was 10. She was probably 11 or 12. I had lunch with her family, whole goat, lots of rice and just a ton of food. They had servants (1971ish) who served and cleaned. She once came to our house and we had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and we helped Mom clean up. 15 years later I'm in the States working on a golf course and talking to a couple who live on said course. They had returned from England from a wedding. A beautiful princess who described her favorite day from childhood, a pb and j and little clean up with mom. I was stunned to say the least.

During WW2, my great uncle was in the Navy and on board the Hovey when it was blown up. Another ship disobeyed orders and went back for survivors. As my uncle climbed up the side, a man reached down to pull him up over the side, and when he looked up, it was a classmate from his small High School that he had graduated with.

I got a job at a Target and my coworker and I shared Facebook info. It turned out that I knew his sister, was friend with his friends, we even went to the same parties in high school, but we somehow didn't know each other.

Some years ago my grandmother had lung cancer and spent her last few days in the local hospice. She passed away late on Christmas eve in 2004. My dad passed away in the early hours of Christmas morning 2013 in the same hospice, in the same room and also of lung cancer.

One summer when I was little I attended a special art school. To get there I had to take two bus routes. In order to get from bus route A to bus route B I had to cross a busy street. One night I had a dream in which I had just gotten off bus A and saw bus B approaching the intersection. I ran across the intersection against the light, and almost got hit by a car. The very next day, that is what happened!

Ever since I was a small child I have had psychic dreams. I dream about something at night then the next day or a few days later the exact same scenario that I dreamt will happen IRL, even down to what people are wearing and what they're saying. Sometimes when I am listening to the radio i randomly think of a song I haven't heard for ages and it will be the next one to play on the radio, and sometimes I randomly think about somebody I haven't seen or heard from for years, or even decades, and I will meet them in the street or a shop or something.
