I once saw a bad car crash where a pickup truck ran a red light going like 55 and hit the entire front off of a little Honda with a couple and a baby in it. They were okay but the pickup truck flipped onto its top and I don't know what happened to the driver/passengers. I was young so it really freaked me out.

I was sitting on the balcony of the condo in Gulf Shores during a storm, when a man ran out to grab his beach umbrella. Lightning struck him and he was dead instantly, charred black. I was maybe 300 feet away. Weird shite.

People see life every day and don't believe in evolution.
They fill their cars up with gas and don't believe life is millions of years old.
But I saw Johnny Manziel play football and I still don't believe someone could've been that good at playing QB. GOAT, IMO.

When I was 16, I was on a date with a hot girl. We went to see a movie that I dont remember.
After the movie was over, we were just cruising around and we had a flat tire on the front passenger side of my car. I pulled over on the shoulder of the road and was changing it, and another guy stopped to see if we needed any help, and was parked behind my car.
I had gotten the spare on and had snugged the lug nuts, but the car was still on the jack,my date was standing beside me watching me.
The guy that had stopped to help suddenly yelled "LOOKOUT" and there was a car coming full speed down the shoulder, driver is obviously wasted.
I tried to grab my date, but she took off running straight down the shoulder, I ran off to the side, and watched as the drunk hit the car of the guy that had stopped to help, his car then hit mine, and launched it like a rocket.
The bumper of my car, hits the girl right in the arse, knocks her down and runs over her.I thought for sure she would be killed.
She gets up after it is over, and didn't have a scratch on her, her clothes didnt even get dirty!
Unreal stuff.

I once saw a human fetus in a jar in the back of a cabinet with some other embalmed fetal animals on the campus of a Community College in Virginia.
We're cleaning out the cabinets for extra credit. You're talking dust collecting on this stuff, maybe been there 20, 30 years. The most fricked up thing about it was that it was in a gallon size Duke's mayonnaise jar.

What kind of jar is the right choice?
A Vlassic Pickle jar? That would be a morbid joke.

Yikes. For no particular reason I've become really paranoid about this. As in, get nervous running to my car 10 feet when it's lightning. Just sure I'm gonna get popped.
I guess worst thing I saw in person would be a dead body in the middle of the interstate in Slidell. Came upon it probably 2 minutes after guy had been hit. I got a decent look, but thankfully not a good look enough to sear into my mind.

So you witnessed the results of felony animal cruelty, while on duty, and ignored it... I see that and don't believe it

Yeah I feel bad, but I was like 3 weeks out from leaving the country. Wouldn't want to get dragged into that mess.
Selfish I know, but plane ticket had been purchased well before and I had been placed on that beat without my consent and told to quit if i had a problem by a supervisor who was fired around the same time I saw this incident.
And it wasn't ignored, just wasn't reported.
I also didn't report a fight between two friends, nor did the other officer assisting me.
I was a security guard, not a cop, and I don't see the harm in ruining someone's life over a mutual conflict (regarding the fight of course).
It reflects poorly on my integrity though, I agree with that much.

I'm a little older than some of y'all so I've probably seen a few more things that defy logic.
I was pulling Battalion CQ in Italy about forty years ago and was called to the scene of an accident involving a young African-American lieutenant. It was my job to document the accident in a report and to take pictures using a Polaroid camera. When I arrived on the scene I saw a BMW that had impacted a concrete powerline pole at a high rate of speed, obviously, hit it square dead bang center in the front. The driver, still in his OD greens, seemed to be slumped over the wheel, although it was dark and there was some glare coming from the driver's side window. As I began writing the report I noticed another group of Italians standing almost 100 yards down the Way from the spot of impact. Anyway, I took down the license number and description of the vehicle, took a few pictures from the outside, etc. Then I walked over and one of the Carbs opened the door where I could clearly see the body of the driver slumped over the wheel. I took a picture of the driver ... then waited for the photo to develop. When it did, I had to take a second look ... something wasn't right. European laws, auto laws are far different than US laws in terms of bumpers, shatterproof glass, emissions, air bags, etc. He was driving a European built BMWer. The front glass had collapsed in on him almost immediately upon impact.
So I walked down to where the Italians were circled around, about 100 yards down the road, and there laid the LT's head cut-off as cleanly as if it had been severed by a sword. Sitting up straight, looking back towards the accident, eyes wide open along with his mouth .... with a total look of amazement on his face like "oh shite!"
I took pictures, filed my report, and I recently heard those pictures are still on the wall at the Provost's office in Vicenza.
Another thing I've seen that is unexplainable, but I saw it with mine own eyes and there were other witnesses. Twice ... I've seen UFOs. Once right after a jump onto Salerno DZ at Bragg, everyone on my end of the drop zone saw it including a couple of other officers ... we were told to stfu afterwards and never speak of it again. The other time was once over a drop zone in northern England when I was training with the SAS. Same thing, same sort of sighting, except this time the Brits were with me the other guy and me who were attached to them at the time ... again we were told to never speak of it again. They were UFOs and what they did, in the air, is beyond anything you would believe. I believe in UFOs. Not so much after the first one, but after the second one there was no doubt ... we're not alone.
In the sixties I saw a little girl run out in front of a speeding red '64 Impala couple convertible on a paved road driven by a beautiful woman in a head scarf wearing a bathing suit wrapped in a silk wrap ... the little girl, it was like slow motion, ran in front of her and was hit by that big chrome bumper, knocked under the car and the car passed completely over her. She got up and walked away crying. The woman who was driving was hysterical.
At Bragg, there were three of us walking back to our car after seeing a movie one night out off of Bragg Blvd, and as we were crossing the road a drunk driver swerved and hit one of my buddies, a good guy named Castro ... hit him so hard it literally knocked him out of his shoes. Killed him instantly. His shoes were still sitting there in the road side-by-side right at the exact spot where he was impacted.
I once caught the same fish twice in one night. My first child was conceived that night as well. My first wife and I were camping along the shores of Lake Murray. I hooked a big bass near a submerged wood pile and fought him for awhile from the end of a dock but could never get him to the shore. Hooked him on a lime green Mann jelly worm. Eventually I decided he had pulled the line into the wood pile and was tangled, so I cut the line and walked back over to where my wife was around the campfire ... where, soon after, my first daughter was conceived. Early the next morning, before the sun came up, I walked back out to the dock and began fishing with another Mann jelly worm and hooked another fish ... another big one. Got him about halfway between the woodpile and where I was on the dock and he seemed to come to a completely stop ... so I kept fighting him. The sun was not yet up but I knew I had the fish so I kept pulling tighter and tighter ... until the fish was finally fighting me on the surface of the water, just his tail in the water. It was freakish. But as the sun came up it became clear what had happened. It was the same fish I had snagged the night before. He was still hooked on the other line in the woodpile on the same Mann lime green jelly worm, but he had bitten the other one the next morning and I now had the line so taught between the two that he was suspended just out of the water. I felt so sorry for the fish I waded into the water, he was so tired he could hardly move ... and I cut both lines and removed both hooks and set him free. I guesstimated he went about 7-8 pounds which was a lunker in those days. My ex-wife and I still tell our daughter that story ... it was a full moon too. That daughter gave me my first grandchild.

I was in a hotel, and the clerk started yelling for help. This was about 11:15p and she was the only employee around. She said she got a call from the elevator that someone was trapped and needed someone to go up and talk to the person between the 4th and 5th floors while she got an elevator repairman (required by law in this case.)
I talked to the lady for a few minutes and she was panicking and afraid she was going to pass out. I ran downstairs to ask if the repairman was on the way and she said he was 45 minutes out. The hotel maintenance guy showed up from home and said we couldn't wait, that we would break the law. I heard her screaming, other guests were complaining about the banging on the elevator walls, ..and finally about 30 minutes in, silence.
The maintenance guy opened the door above, lowered himself in and opened the roof hatch and ..no one was inside. the elevator guy got there with and opened the 4th floor door, lowered the elevator and opened the elevator door, and nothing. No evidence anyone was there.

One from my Uncle who is a bait fisherman based out of West Palm Beach, Florida: Saw a woman hanging out of a shark's mouth that had made a pass off the side of his boat.
Can't verify it, but I believe him.

I went to a festival today. There was a middle aged man just sitting at a table, outdoors, with his dick hanging out of his shorts...
Yes, his dick was hanging an inch out of his shorts. Tons of people walking by and dude had no idea.
I saw it. I still can't believe it.

The same thing happened to me at Disney World when I was 14 except that it was sack. Old man was sitting on a curb waiting for a parade.
