The world is full of mysteries, some of which we understand and others that we’re still figuring out. From all the incredible things that happen on our planet, some just seem way too far-fetched to be true. Almost like they can’t be backed up by scientific evidence.

That’s why we put together this list of weird phenomena and crazy happenings that seem extremely fake but are actually real. You better clear your schedule because some of these posts might lead you down an intense rabbit hole of research.

“Redheads Need More Anesthesia”: 27 Incredibly Weird Phenomena That Seem Too Fake To Be True Most of psychology and neurology sound like absolute b******t once you read into at first, and then there’s just this disgusting mountain of evidence in your face. Like just look at ADHD, for an ADHD person the reason they didn’t do something can QUITE LITERALLY be “my brain didn’t *let* me do it” and it’s not bs, like it’s a thing called executive dysfunction which is the brain not know what or how to do something or start or a lot of other things and then just doesn’t.

It the outside observer it looks like laziness, and that they’re just slacking off scrolling their phone or watching stuff, but inside is an entire monologue of said person screaming at themselves to just do the thing, but they can’t. It’s also not just for important or menial tasks, they’ll “procrastinate” on things they want to do, like playing a video game or reading a good book. It can often feel like “Locked In Syndrome” a condition where you’re locked inside your own body as an observer.

    “Redheads Need More Anesthesia”: 27 Incredibly Weird Phenomena That Seem Too Fake To Be True You absorb more nutrients from cooked eggs than you do from raw eggs. People don’t believe it because cooking eggs actually does reduce the amount of nutrients. BUT cooking them changes the protein structures and makes it easier for your body to actually absorb them. It’s called Protein Denaturation and it increases the bioavailability of the proteins. Bioavailability describes what is actually available for your body to digest and absorb.

    More nutrients doesn’t necessarily mean more bioavailability and less nutrients doesn’t necessarily mean less bioavailability.

    The same thing happens with a lot of food. Especially plants, many of them have complex proteins that are more bioavailable when denatured.

    So many examples on this list might sound absurd at first, until you try and uncover the truth behind them. Like the idea that your personality changes when you switch between languages. The idea behind it is that you might speak in a different language when going to a new environment or culture and that ultimately affects the way you express yourself.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Compared to that, pseudoscience doesn’t have evidence backing it and is almost always based on flimsy ideas. To understand the difference between what information’s real and what’s fake, Bored Panda reached out to Paul M. Sutter. He is a theoretical cosmologist, NASA advisor, and author of a book called ‘Rescuing Science: Restoring Trust in an Age of Doubt.’

    The most important thing Paul told us about pseudoscience is that it “takes the surface tools of science, like complex jargon and fancy equipment, but misses the deeper soul, like skepticism and openness.”

As it turns out, you can achieve a pretty high dopamine response from fantasizing/ imagining/ talking about goals, which can provide your brain with enough happy chemicals to actually HINDER your drive to go and achieve those things for real. This sounds like b******t, but it’s true.

You're telling me the 'roots' of mushrooms act as a big message delivery system that not only allows information to be sent large distances across a single specimen but can also be used by connected TREES to communicate with each other and swap nutrients??? This is an oversimplification and mycelium absolutely does not think (isn't sentient) like humans do-- however, I am not exaggerating just how implausible it all sounds. There are some amazing mushroom documentaries out there and it still baffles me.

    That might be very true, different languages have sort of different aspects to things. For instance, in English, I might say "I dropped my fork", but in Finnish, I would say "my fork dropped from me" if it is an accident, pointing the "blame" to the fork. If I said in Finnish I dropped my fork, it would mean I did it on purpose. There are lots of small differences like this in the grammar itself, not to speak of the mentalities of different nations etc.

    It's close to an old theory in anthropology/linguistics, called the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. They suggested that because languages have different constructs, grammars, nouns that other languages don't share, etc., that they affect the very way we perceive the world and think about it. "Habitual grooves of thought," is how I think they said it.

    Across the globe, around 60% of folks believe that the average person in their country doesn't care about factual information and just believes what they want. That is quite worrisome, considering how easy it is to pass pseudoscience off as real science and how believable a lot of it seems.

    That’s why we also contacted Melanie Trecek-King to share her views on this topic. Melanie is a speaker, writer, educator, and consultant specializing in critical thinking, information literacy, and science literacy. She is the creator of Thinking Is Power—which empowers individuals with skills to make better decisions and protect themselves from misinformation. 

    She is also an associate professor of biology at Massasoit Community College, the education director for the Mental Immunity Project and CIRCE (Cognitive Immunology Research Collaborative), and a fellow of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry.

    Melanie explained that “pseudoscience masquerades as science but doesn’t adhere to the rigorous processes that make science reliable. Pseudoscience is widespread and can be dangerous. To protect ourselves, we must understand its characteristics and why we’re vulnerable to it.”

If you stop eating those foods, the bacteria will die, so they send a message to your brain, causing you to crave those foods. If you're trying to give up french fries, for example, it will take about 4 weeks to kill all the bacteria accustomed to digesting that food, and you will continue to crave it while they live.

    It also may be possible to lose weight by getting a fecal transplant from a thin person. The only problem is, it is also possible to get a mental illness (potentially) from that same person, so they should be screened carefully.

    it's broadly applied, too. PTSD, anxiety disorders, phobia, dissociative disorders....EMDR is indicated for a wide variety of life challenges.

    privately, i call it the "little miracle". there are times when it appears to be almost mystical, but then, the human mind is vast and endless, and we know very little about it.

    To simplify things for everyone and help distinguish between the facts on this list and misinformation, we asked Paul Sutter for tips. He said: “Here are my warning signs that you might just be encountering pseudoscience:

    1. Secrecy: science is open to critique and evaluation. Watch out for ideas that rely on some secret or arcane knowledge that only a select few have access to.
    2. Convoluted: even the most complex of scientific theories are straightforward and to the point. We always try to have as few steps and assumptions as possible to explain the data.
    3. Conspiracy: if an idea needs vast conspiracy to work, like there's some cabal of scientists and government officials trying to hide the ‘truth,’ it's probably not true.
    4. Static: science is always changing and updating with new evidence. Keep an eye out for ideas that haven't changed for decades or longer.”

    A lot of it is how long term stresses can change the chemical makeup of your cells, which can then essentially wake up dormant DNA. So, if you have the DNA for certain cancers, experiencing the right stresses for the right protracted amount of time can wake them up and start them multiplying. This can also affect babies in the womb, as the stresses change the chemical makeup of the mother’s cells she shares with the baby. Additionally, the stresses of womb placement for multiple births can affect it—-there’s usually one dominant baby who ends up getting the lion’s share of nutrients from the mother, leaving little to their siblings. Even monozygotic twins (identical) aren’t 100% identical, and become less so as they grow up, because of differing life experiences. That’s how you can have one twin develop cancer or schizophrenia, and the other not develop it at all. It’s a really fascinating science, and truly answers the nature or nurture questions, by proving that it is a combination of both that shapes us.

    Most of us aren’t scientists, which is why it can be hard to distinguish between fact and fiction. Melanie Trecek-King explained that “the line between science and pseudoscience isn’t always clear, but there are a few telltale signs. Unlike scientific claims, many pseudoscientific claims are so vague that they can’t be tested.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “By using overly broad statements (promotes vibrant health and wellness) or appealing to energies or spiritual forces (rebalances the body’s energy fields), pseudoscientific claims are difficult or impossible to verify. Pseudoscience promoters create an aura of mystery and encourage us to interpret their claims based on our hopes and desires,” Melanie explained.

    If you take one thing from this list, it should always be to question the information that comes your way. A very important point that Melanie mentioned is: “Pseudoscientific beliefs are motivated by a desire to believe, often due to identity needs or wishful thinking. Hope is powerful, and it can overwhelm our critical thinking faculties.”

    “Remember, true scientific claims are supported by rigorous evidence and are open to scrutiny and debate. By being aware of how pseudoscience can fool us, we can better protect ourselves from falling prey to its deceptive allure,” she added.

    Quicksand can trap you, then you drown when the tide comes in. I live near a part of the coast where this is a very real risk (we have very wide and fairly flat beaches). I also live near a couple of lifeboat stations equipped to rescue people who do get trapped like that. I've seen a documentary on the telly where the presenter volunteered to get trapped by what they typically call "soft sand", and watched how they freed her leg - local to me in NW England. It's genuinely scary stuff and nothing like the Hollywood version.

    It also had to do with taking lead out of paints used to paint the inside and outside of houses and apartments. When paint oxidizes, it turns to a fine dust that can be inhaled. Additionally, we all know how babies go through a phase where everything goes in their mouths. They found that paint chips that fell in their reach also were ingested. Just like we removed asbestos from our insulation, we removed lead from our paint—-and both were given time limits for abatement that have now long ago passed. If you ever come across old asbestos insulation or leaded paint, you have to have it correctly removed by professionals, and replaced with new. (I worked in real estate when the bulk of the abatement jobs were happening.)

    What is fascia? Fascia is a thin casing of connective tissue that surrounds and holds every organ, blood vessel, bone, nerve fiber and muscle in place. The tissue does more than provide internal structure; fascia has nerves that make it almost as sensitive as skin. . . . . . . . https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/muscle-pain-it-may-actually-be-your-fascia#:~:text=What%20is%20fascia%3F,almost%20as%20sensitive%20as%20skin.

    “Redheads Need More Anesthesia”: 27 Incredibly Weird Phenomena That Seem Too Fake To Be True That cosmic rays (neutrinos) are responsible for a lot of random computer errors. The smaller components are and the less electricity the need makes them more susceptible to interference. They carry very little electrical charge but enough to flip zeros to ones. The wrong flip, and oops not working correctly.... temporarily. This is why turning things off and on again fixes so many issues.

    Neutrinos do not carry any electric charge - that's why they are called neutrinos (tiny neutral ones in Italian). Also, although some of them come in large numbers from the Sun (and other cosmic sources), usually they are not considered as cosmic rays, due to extremely low chance of interacting. Cosmic rays close to Earth's surface are composed mostly of muons.
