30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did I’m (31F) from Northern Ireland and this happened about 10 years ago. As I walked my dog, I suddenly felt like I was being watched. I looked around and quickly noticed a grey wolf slowly walking through the field I was beside, staring right at me with a mangled rabbit in its mouth. We were both walking in the same general direction. It looked huge, around 5 feet or so. It stared in such a predatory way I was terrified that it was going to come for us. It was about 15 meters away with a pretty pathetic fence between us, and we both just stood there frozen for about 10 seconds staring at each other. Eventually I picked up my (small) dog and backed away while watching it, I didn’t know what the hell to do. When it was nearly out of sight and still hadn’t moved, I turned and ran. I told my dad who didn’t seem to believe me but said I should call animal welfare, and they didn’t take it seriously at all, I never heard back from them. We don’t have wolves here so I have no idea what the heck happened. I Google it every few years and did read something about people managing to get wolves as pets and then releasing them when they got too big to keep or something, so I wonder if that’s what happened. But I always see a look of worried disbelief when I tell someone!

Edit: This was in the middle of the day so I could see it very clearly. Definitely didn’t look anything like an Irish Wolfhound, and we own large dog breeds (as well as the small I was walking), and it didn’t seem anything like a large dog. The closest breed I saw mentioned was the Northern Inuit, but more grey.

But it was much bigger with a wild, predator-like temperament. Honestly if I hadn’t seen it walking while staring, I might have wondered if I was just seeing things.

I saw a few comments mentioning a wolf sanctuary in Ireland and when I looked that up, this is the closest to what I saw! The town I was in is pretty small and not anywhere near any of the sanctuaries/zoos. I was also in a residential area—a row of houses on one side of me, the field on the other, so it still feels really random.

Edit 2: Someone has let me know that a grey wolf escaped approximately around the same time that this happened, from Tyrone which is only about 40-45 miles away from where I was! So it is seeming likely that someone was trying to keep it in captivity and it escaped. I’m not crazy, hurray!

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did I have clear and distinct memories from when I was still in diapers and a crib. No one in my family believed me until I described the EXACT layout of my room at the time, bed and dressers included.

I even described a time my mom gave me cough medicine in a Mickey mouse spoon from before I could even talk.

It’s weird because my short term memory is trash, but my long term memory is absolutely unreal.

Here’s hoping this all fits.

Used to work health care. Specifically, dementia palliative care. Palliative meant that people had a certain amount of time to live, and usually declined pretty quickly. To put it nicely: dementia residents came to me to be cared for while they died.

I worked night shift, 11pm-7am. I’ve seen and heard dead residents at night, watched living residents talk to an empty room, and then mention they were talking to someone who died long before they ever came into my care, someone they had never met.

My coworkers believe me, but no one else ever has.

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did I think I had a collision problem once. Was about to take a shower and stuck my arm in to feel the water. But the water just...didn't connect. It went right through my arm, no temperature or splashing or anything.

Here's the weird s**t. I wasn't by myself. I called my wife in and she watched the same thing happen. Her arm acted normally, got wet and warm. Kept putting my arm in the stream and it didn't interact with the water at all, was like it wasn't there.

We tried water from the sink, and that was fine, I could touch that. I poked a bunch of other random s**t too, no changes. Wife put her arm beneath mine and said she could feel the water hitting her arm, like mine wasn't even there. Then at one point I stuck my arm in and it was just...fixed? Everything worked normally. We hadn't changed anything.

My wife hates talking about it because people always grill her with questions and explanations

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did I live in a rural community in Canada. My sister came to see me once and swore up and down that she saw a zebra grazing in the fields. I made fun of her for a couple of years about how the zebra roam the north pole and how Santa has zebra instead of reindeer. She was really starting to doubt herself but stuck to her guns.

Well, I was driving one day and lo and behold, a f*****g zebra grazing in the field. Turns out a zoo sometimes lets them roam around there.

When I told my sister she felt vindicated.

Edit: Since this has come up a lot. This was near between Orangeville, and Arthur. And was about 10 years ago.

Friend of mine had some family from europe visiting him in the Toronto area. They wanted to see "Canadian Wildlife" so he drove them around the country a bit. They were asking if it was really possible to see moose or bears, a little skeptically. He said probably not this close to the city, but it was possible. Five minutes later a giraffe ran across the road head of them. Turned out it had gotten loose from a safari park thing. I hope they don't still have those.

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did My Betta fish disappeared out of a covered tank. And then reappeared in front of my eyes.

If you can imagine: This tank is clear plastic on all sides, including the bottom. There's nowhere to hide when it's empty. The only thing not transparent is the metal lid. Betta fish are known to hide, so I didn't worry about not seeing him for a couple days, but on day 3 I got worried, so I took the heater and filter out. Checked the inside of the filter. Took the plants out. Took the hides out. No fish.

Nothing in the tank but water and glass rocks now, so I started scooping the rocks out, thinking he may have gotten trapped under there and died. Pretty soon I'm staring at a tank with nothing but water in it. No fish.

I figure there's no way he's still alive so I start scooping the water out. It's about 3/4 full when suddenly my fish does one of those fishy slow-turns in the dead center of the tank. There he was. It wasn't, like, I turned away and then back and my fish was there. No, I was staring at the tank, and I quite literally saw him swim back into existence. One second he wasn't there, the next he was.

I moved him to a smaller bowl for a few days to keep an eye on him. Covered the top with perforated plastic wrap to ensure no jumping. He disappeared from the bowl a couple days later and never came back. Have owned several Betta fish, and I can honestly say no other fish has ever dimension hopped out of a tank since.

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did Not something I saw, something I felt and heard. I was struggling to sleep one night, lying in bed feeling wired and irritable when I felt pressure lift from the bed on my partner's side. I assumed he'd got up to go to the bathroom (I was facing the opposite way so I didn't see him do this) a few minutes go by and I hear him come back into the room and feel him get back in bed, nothing strange about that.

Lying there still frustrated the same thing happens again, a lift of pressure, some rustling sounds like a person trying to navigate a dark room, an absence of sound for a few moments and then the sensation of weight on the bed again. Still not thinking much of it, because it wasn't an obvious cause for concern, I continue trying to fall asleep. Then it happens again. And again. And again.

I wasn't too into the idea of asking him if he was ok as we had a ridiculous argument that night and I was pretty pissed off with him, so I just ignored it. But then... Then it sounded like he had got up and was simply pacing around the room clumsily, I could hear things on the shelves being touched and slightly moved and hands gently brushing against walls, and then I felt the bed suddenly dip in a concentrated spot of the mattress as though he had stood on it. This carries on for I don't know how long, rustling, pressure on the bed and so on until I snap. I sit bolt upright, turn around and say "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?" to see my partner waking up from a very deep sleep and looking confused.

I told him what had happened and he said he'd been asleep next to me the whole time, which was pretty obvious to see him in his very sleepy state, plus he would have had mere seconds to jump into bed without me noticing in the time it took me to sit up and turn around. I somehow fell asleep that night feeling confused and as though eyes were on me.

And in a typical cheesy haunted house fashion, I get a call from my mum the next morning telling me my uncle had died the night before.

That seems very dismissive since there is no indication that the person telling the story couldn’t move which would seem to be a pretty big component of sleep paralysis. This is just a normal dream of their partner getting up repeatedly. Similar to when you might think you turned off your alarm, got up, started to get ready for your day, just to have the alarm go off again in real life and you awake to realize that you are still in bed and you were dreaming about getting up and getting ready.

My nextdoor neighbor asked me if someone died in the house years ago. He knew that a man committed suicide several months before he bought the house. But he described sitting on the bed and sometimes feels a person sit on the bed next to him. He described a woman in detail. Well, the suicide man's wife died in the home several years before he committed suicide. My neighbor described her to a tee. He'd never seen a picture of her before. I didn't tell him another suicide happened in that house about 30 years before too. Something about that house!

When I was 12, I stayed with my great aunt while my mother and brother ran to the grocery to get lunch stuff. She took me into her basement and "introduced" me to her husband. Her long dead husband. Who's remains were in a ziploc in a file drawer, neatly filed. She made a big deal about how she bought a brand new box of ziplocs for him instead of reusing one. She was all about the frugality, my great aunt.

No one believed me until after she died. When my mother and aunt found the cremains in the ziploc in the file drawer.

My Dad passed away from Cancer when I was 7 years old. My parents asked me if I wanted to be there when he died and I said no. My parents arranged for me to go to their best friends house to sleep over the night after I had said my goodbyes as he was fading away. That night he did pass and I experienced something that I cannot explain. I remember this vividly, I was fast asleep and I wake up bolted upright at 11:50pm like I was pulled awake and I knew immediately that he had died right then. I had this really strange sense of calm and acceptance and I felt my Dad’s presence like he was saying goodbye. Later I asked my Mom when he died and told her that story and it shook her hard, it happened. A few years later she took me to a clairvoyant who afterwards said I was a clairvoyant too. My mother is a highly intelligent lady, women of science and to my knowledge didn’t tell this lady a thing. A few years later I’m sitting on the couch after school with my sister watching TV and I get that same feeling again and immediately know that my Mom has been involved in a car accident and I told my sister right away like I didn’t have a choice I just said it. I was right she had been in a car accident at that exact time. This was before cell phones and I had no way of knowing, no communication with my Mom. Two events where I knew without a doubt that events had occurred when I had no logical way of knowing. It hasn’t happened since and I have no explanation whatsoever for either of them.

I have very vivid memories of my great grandfather. I distinctly remember which room he lay in for months while being cared for by his family and what the layout of the room was like. I also have a memory of playing with him and him talking to me while I was being fully aware that he had cancer in the latest stages and understood that he would probably die soon.

Thing is I only ever met him once in person and I was only 4 months old.

My family has pointed out that I knew facts about his appearance that I could not possibly have known because there are close to no pictures of him. (like a big scar he had across his chest from an operation)

I have no other memories from my early childhood. (In fact my memory about that time is so bad I don't even correctly recall things from my time in kindergarden.)

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did Was playing with my Cousin and a friend of ours outside. We were riding our bikes and had a bunch of fun, but couldn't explore that far from where I live l, since we were like 7 or 8 y/o.

As we were cheerfully cycling down a long road behind a parking garage near my apartment, I started to slow down as I was getting tired of it. Both of them were continuing to cycle down the road as they haven't noticed me being left behind yet.

You have to understand that the location of the road was right in between the parking garage (with 2 floors) and a fence which has only rails on the other side and was usually deserted. So once I stopped cycling, I could only turn tail or follow the road ahead.

After reaching my limit, I simply stopped my bike mid way after a while and tried to catch some breath. While doing so something caught my eye on the backstairs of the parking garage, I tried to get closer to check out what it was out of curiosity. But boy was that a mistake. I spotted a man who seemed kneel down behind a wall of the backstairs. Didn't seem suspicious at first, however after a closer look I saw what seemed like knife covered in blood. My body froze and all I could feel was fear that went through my body, which felt like it lasted for minutes. The man just started to catch on with me standing on road and began to slowly stand-up and face my direction. I was somehow able to get my brain back to process and bolted down the street with any power I had left in me.

After passing both my cousin and friend, as well as leaving a big distance to where I spotted him. I started to break down in tears and explaining what happened. No one would believe me, since they went back to check and found nothing strange. Got so traumatized from it, that I avoided the road until my mid teens.

Tldr; saw a man with a knife covered in blood behind a parking garage while cycling as kid and no one would believe.

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did When I was a kid I remember seeing a lady’s face in a doorway "grinning" at me, with what I assumed to be something brown covering her entire face and teeth. I would see her several times until we moved away when I was 5. Obviously my family didn’t see her but my mom got worried when I told her that I saw "the lady from the kiosk", which is what I called the lady after I dreamt of her falling down a flight of stairs in a small store not far from our house.

And I s**t you not, my mom told me a few months ago that in the same store I was dreaming of, a woman had fallen down a flight of stairs and had her face torn on the way down, apparently being covered in dried blood when she was found, hence my description of her. Imagine the look on my face when I heard that lmao

Also, apparently I kept talking to my mom about a man in the wall back then?? I don’t remember seeing a "man in the wall" but I do remember talking about him.

When I was little, maybe 7, the son of a lady who babysat my brother and I, cut his leg on our swing set. Green goo came out of his leg. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember the type of bolt it was, the cover is was missing to prevent cuts.

I’m a dentist now (taken gross anatomy, dissected a human body, routinely in the OR for resections of crazy head and neck tumors).

With the exception of gross infections, I’ve never seen green goo come out of someone. Let alone a healthy leg.

In November of 2012, the day before the world was supposed to end, my buddy and I went up to the store to grab drinks. We no joke saw a full size airplane so low to ground we couldn't believe it. It was hovering above a street light and wasn't moving. Even weirder was when we got to the store as soon as we entered every single person we could see all turned their heads and started right at us, like we weren't supposed to be there. They stopped shortly after but damn was it the weirdest thing ever. Of course no one believes us.

The sky “go black” about 2 years ago.

It was 7 am and I was off to work and the sky had that beautiful dark blue hue it does just as the sun is about to start rising. As I’m walking to my car in the drive way, the sky turned completely black and then I heard just a long prolonged trumpet sound. I thought the world was ending. The sound lasted for like 5 seconds and then everything went back to “normal”. It was insane and I still don’t understand what happened to this day.

30 Incredibly Bizarre Things People Saw Happen Yet Others Refuse To Believe They Did When we were ten years old, all of my cousins and siblings were playing hide and seek in the dark in the middle of a park. When someone gets found, you join the seeker to look for people, but you can’t tell them where they are. I was the seeker and I had just found one of my cousins, so we were walking around and looking for the rest. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw someone that looked exactly like my brother run past us at inhuman speed. I turned to look at my cousin and he had admitted that he saw the same thing. We found my brother later in the round, but he was at the other side of the park. Nobody believes either of us but both of us still remember it.

Edit: no, we were not all ten years old. Me and the other seeker were ten years old.

My cousin saw this aswell but anyway, back in Pakistan my family owns a good amount of land and my uncle was building kinda far from most of the houses in our village, it wasn't that far but further than most houses were. The part of land he built his house on wasn't completely cleared out and he had a path going through the trees, he needed the path initially for vehicles to get in to bring building materials. Anyway I was walking past at night with my cousin and it was like 11 at night so not that late but it was pitch black bc it was December, in our village there had been a few people who claimed to have seen jinns in the area and while walking back I jokingly said lets go say hi even tho I knew they were asleep, I look down the path and saw someone there. I pointed it out to my cousin who shouted who's there, it disappeared then about 10 seconds later it reappeared significantly closer, I was so scared I nearly pissed myself (I was 7 at the time) We broke into a sprint and ran home. I couldn't sleep properly that night.

This has happened to me 4 times. But I managed to prove it for 2 of them. The other two are actually almost b the same thing. I was outside with my partner, brother and dad. I see a fire ball flying in the sky and then it exploded. I was the only one that saw it coz the others were too busy chatting. The next time I was camping and standing outside with my partner, our mate and his dad. We were chatting away and I see a fireball flying in the sky, I tried getting the others attention but by the time they looked up it had gone behind the cabins nearby. Everyone thinks I was seeing things.

How big were the fireballs and what color? I've seen a decent sized meteor/fireball streak across the sky and explode (way, way bigger than a shooting star, but not big enough to wake the whole city). It was bluish green. At first I thought it had to be an explosion from a chemical plant or something (except it was coming down instead of going up somehow...), but when I looked up what it could have been later, I found that fireballs from meteors are often blue/green. Apparently, they're quite common, but the average person never sees one. If you spend a lot of time in the wildenerness where you can clearly see the sky at night, you have a much greater chance, though. I would love to see one again. It was so beautiful.

When I was like 3-4 I was hit by lightning. I remember my dad telling my to get my doll carriage-which was a 50s style real baby carriage with the metal sides an big wheels-off the front lawn. As I was walking to it i saw a blue light come down an hit the street. Then it did a snake walk lazily towards where I was. Next I know I'm in the bushes. If there weren't there I'd have been bounced off the side of the house. So my dad comes back out hearing the noise an sees me. Said "oh ground lightning". Like ok. But am I ok?? Yeah. It snapped right at my feet and because I had my hands on the carriage the rubber wheels grounded most of the charge. But it do know everything hurt. Later in life like 20 or so I was electrocuted at a job. You feel the marrow in your bone pop an explode. And you can't move. Only think an realize it's happening. I used to get shocks from plugs in walls. So I have a habit of pulling them out by the cords. Bow I just need to hit the lottery...

I was walking home late from work, drizzly day so I had a trenchcoat. Car turns too from very busy main street onto badly-lit street I am in the middle of crossing (it's not going SUPER fast but still enough to be dangerous). I instinctively tried to jump out of the way (backwards, not sideways, like an idiot). My foot comes down on the fender, bends my ankle so my other foot comes down on the hood. Trying not to fall I get another few steps that take me over the hood, land on my butt on the trunk and am left standing in the middle of the road - a wicked bruise on my thigh but otherwise completely unharmed - as the a****** driving speeds off down the empty street without stopping.

It was also across the street from the park so we liked to sit there and watch the world go by. One day we were watching a couple of our favorite squirrels do their thing when it started raining. One went back to their tree in the park and the other ran under a lilac bush. The rain started coming down hard so the one in the bush decided to make a dash for the safety of his tree. As he ran across the street, the second he touched the manhole cover, it was hit by lightning. It was just...gone.

Just the words showing up as the person says them. Other stuff too--a bunch of question marks when they look confused or a cartoony raincloud for moody. It's like I'm living in a comic book, or that movie spiderman: into the spiderverse. It's kinda fun sometimes, but god does it get annoying.

When I was 9, my friend lived across the street from me. It was her birthday but she was out of town with her parents that weekend. I made her a card and thought I'd go leave it between her doors for when she got home later that night. It was winter and was dark early. I went up a narrow walk between two fences to her door, then left. As I was about 20 feet away I turned around to make sure I'd closed her screen door tightly and there, at the door under a dim porch light was a man standing looking down at where I'd left the card. He wore a dark brown suit and a bowler hat. It was all very old dress. He didn't move. Everything was oddly quiet. I in fact blinked many times, even turned around to check another time. I thought it had to be a trick of the light. No, each time he was there, like a statue, just gazing down at where the card would be, between the doors. I found out the next day that they'd been gone to her Uncle's funeral and he'd been buried with his favorite bowler.

About 3 years ago I was on my own watching tv when suddenly my body jerked forward and froze. My jaw was wide open like a scream, hands clenched. I couldn't move at all but I could still hear and see. Only then my hearing became delayed. As in I could see what ad was on the tv but I would only hear is 10 or so seconds later. I was trying to will myself out of it and I felt so strange. Started to wonder if I was dying. Eventually I started to be able to rock slowly and fought to hard against it until I hit the floor and regained control. I was absolutely terrified. I went to my doctor about it thinking it was a seizure and he said he'd never heard of anything like that before. It never happened since.

Haven't read all of them but it looks like people are tending toward ghostly or alien things. Don't believe in either. I don't think anyone's lying, I just think there must be other explanations. Anyway, mine isn't like that. So when my daughter was about 7 or so she had a hamster named Hammy. He escaped from his cage one day and we searched and searched for him . Like for days. He was beloved by the whole family. After we had given up thinking he got in a vent or something. Thought he was gone forever, he'd been gone for weeks, I heard a little scratchy scratch in the tv room. I investigated obviously and there was Hammy. He'd been living in my daughters fold up Barbie house. When I opened it up, there he was!! There was pee and poop in it but the crazy part was when I opened the miniature fridge it was stuffed with his food!!' He must have been moving house and gone back and forth to his food dish to stock his new home!!!

I was once playing with my friends at a local playground which was near a rather steep railway bridge. I was about 13 years (before I discovered boys) We were on the pavement that went over the bridge and I saw my sister (who is 8 years older than me) walking to work, she had her yogurts in her hand and was wearing her denim jacket (this was the 1980's). So, wanting to say hello to her I checked the road both ways so that I wouldn't get run over and hurried across the road to talk to my sister. When I got there she wasn't there. No one was there. I jogged to the top of the hill to see if she was on the other side of the bridge and again no one was there. I'd seen a very detailed vision of my sister but no one else saw it. My friends thought I was bullshitting them. I know usually these sorts of visions end with 'when I got home I found out she'd been killed' etc but my sister was safe and well and is still alive to this day.

Carried up the ramp to go down the slide together (no clue why) and when I sat down at the top of the slide, I looked down at the worm wiggling on my palm. It disappeared into the palm of my hand. Must've blinked or something but it freaked me out so badly! I haven't and I'll never hold another worm again. So creepy!

When I was a small child my family lived in a small apartment. Sometimes at night when I would walk past the bathroom I would have a weird feeling and I would feel someone tickling me. A few times I even heard laughing.

I like stories like this, even though they’re all totally explainable. There’s a podcast I like that has stories similar to this thread, it’s called Spooked.

I can sometimes get what I call "visions". They started around 5-ish years ago and have happened ever since. So, I'll be lost in thought, or at the edge of sleep, or even while talking to someone. I'll close my eyes and suddenly there's a scene in my mind. One I remember vividly. We go to KFC, and a particular one too. There's one that has a "super target" across the street. Well, we ate there and got done and everything. This was where I could see my vision playing out *exactly* how I originally saw it. We were approaching our car, which was a black KIA. I'm maybe 10. Where I live, it very rarely gets cold. But that night, it was cold. I had a purple parka on, black leggings with doodles on them, my hair down, and my converse on. My dad was wearing a grey jacket with a lot of pockets, a green shirt on, and some jeans. My stepmom has a leather jacket, black pants, and black cowboy boots, carrying a Boba Fett handbag. I told my dad about it, but I think he's still skeptical.

My Mum, Dad, brother and I saw a Tasmanian Tiger (which is extinct, apparently). It was back in the 80's and too quick for us to grab a camera. No one believes all 4 of us

I was 11 (1991) when we moved into a rented house. I heard my mom occasionally talking to another person as if they were there, but my sister and I were in our bedroom and my dad was at work. The person was a woman. Once, I heard a crash, like something was thrown against a wall. My mom said that she knew what the lady was trying to do and it didn't scare her. I went downstairs and asked what was wrong, my mom said nothing and was cleaning up a plant pot that was broken on the floor. My mom and dad took a weekend job putting ads in the Sunday newspapers. I would be woken up and sit in the living room for a few hours until they came home. On one of those nights, I had a sudden feeling of intense dread. It felt like something was next to my chair and watching me. It went away after a few minutes and everything felt normal again. Years later my mom told me the house had been haunted, and

One time I remember holding a key with a rubbery end and i put it in an electrical socket. I remember sparks then blackness, I woke up on the floor, still holding the key. I don't know where the key went.

One time I was driving through Kansas and looked out the window of the car. And I saw a PEACOCK CHILLING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. No one has ever believed me.

The human mind is a wonderous thing. It can make us see and experience things we can't explain.

Tell us more about proving it? What did it end up being? (Not doubting you, just curious.)

My one uncle claimed to see Bigfoot, but as he hunted while drunk, I hope it's understandable why we didn't believe him. (We did however find bear tracks.)

Same here. I don't talk about any of those things anymore because most people get scared and change the subject.
