Diamond encrusted rock discovered in Russian mine contains an estimated 30,000 diamonds!

Miners in Russia’s Udachnaya diamond mine received a nice little Christmas surprise when they pulled a highly unusual and very rare diamond encrusted rock from the ground a few weeks back. The rock is about the size of a ping-pong ball and contains an estimated (hold on to your seat!) – 30,000 diamonds! Unfortunately, the diamonds’ small size makes them only useful for mouse jewelry so the miners graciously donated the rock to science.

Bizarre cloud formation in Australia prompts citizens to wonder: Has the end drawn near?

It’s a rare weather phenomena called a “fallstreak hole” that occurs when the water temperature inside a cloud drops to freezing but the water vapor itself cannot freeze because there are not enough “ice nucleation particles” – and man, does it look freaky. Last month citizens of Wonthaggi, Australia were treated to the spectacular sight of a fallstreak hole (also called a fallstreak cloud or punch hole cloud) which had many worried about what was occurring in the skies above them.

The Skeleton Flower magically transforms into glassy, crystal-clear blossoms when it rains

The Diphylleia grayi or Skeleton Flower’s large, fizzy green, umbrella-shaped leaves are topped with small clusters of beautiful pearly white flowers that bloom from mid-spring to early summer. Oddly, as the petals of the flowers are soaked with water, they lose their white pigmentation and turn into magnificent crystal-clear flowers. Once they dry out, the coloring slowly returns and the flowers turn powdery white again.

The Aztec Death Whistle and the sound of a thousand ghouls they make

For decades, archaeologists thought the ancient Aztec Death Whistles were nothing more than disturbing skull-shaped toys for little Aztec kids. They studied how they looked, how they were made, and where they were found. But nobody thought to blow into one. When they did, they found that the creepy clay objects made a spine-chilling noise described by one archaeologist as “the scream of a thousand corpses”. Yeah, they’re that creepy.

This terrifying video is too insane to be real - isn't it?

Well-known Vine phenomenon, Logan Paul, notorious for his humorous vines, posted this video last week that has a lot of people concerned – and other applauding his work. In the video below, Paul dodges a speeding car, jumps as another car passes under him, then does an immediate dive to allow a fast-moving pickup truck to drive over him. Seems impossible – yes? Paul’s a known gymnast so the stunt is not totally out of the question. Then again, it has to be fake because, well, he’s still alive.

Piri Reis map - who or what charted land masses before they were believed to have been discovered?

There’s an ancient map, called the Piri Reis Map, that has scientists scratching their heads and ttheologians saying, “We told you so”. It is extremely accurate and charts much of the land that had yet to be discovered at the time of its creation. Even more remarkably, it charts the Antarctica land mass which was not even possible until ground penetrating radar was invented (in the 1800’s) that would allow map makers the ability to peer beneath the mile-thick ice covering.

Flashing smoke and fire from Uranus is no laughing matter

Scientists using the W. M. Keck II Telescope in August captured some pretty amazing pictures of eight massive bright spots on Uranus. Appearing to be massive firestorms, the bright spots are actually the wavelength of storms in the Uranus atmosphere. Scientists believe the flashes of light are caused by methane gas rising into the atmosphere, freezing into crystals, and then reflecting sunlight away from the planet. The strength of the storms are highly unusual – the intensity of which are normally only seen once every four decades during Uranus’s 42-year equinox (which peaked last in 2007).

Ghost caught on security cam in Japan - woman walks through it (circa 2011)

This video surfaced around 2011 and sparked much discussion. Years later, the consensus is still out – hoax or real? In the video, which was captured via a security cam on the streets of Japan, you will see a woman walking down the sidewalk (top-right side of frame). As she approaches a man standing stationary on the sidewalk, she turns her head to look at something on the opposite side of the street. By all appearances, she is about to walk right into the man. Instead, she walks right through him.

Our newest hero! Historic first landing on a comet - hold on tight Philae!

Today the European Space Agency’s Philae comet probe became the first spacecraft to land on a comet! Philae has been hitching a ride on Rosetta spacecraft as it travelled over 317 million miles on its 10-year journey to Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (sorry kids, nerdy scientists name these things, not me). Scientists believe Philae landed successfully (bounced actually) but failed to launch the harpoons that were intended to anchor it to the Comet 67P/C-G.

The Gombe Chimpanzee War - violent four-year civil war for territory involved kidnapping, rape, and murder (1974)

The violence began on January 7, 1974 when a party of six males from the southern Kasakela tribe brutally attacked and murdered Godi, a young male member of the northern Kahama tribe. Over the next four years, all six males from the Kahama tribe would be killed by the Kasakela. Female Kahama tribe members suffered similar fates – one was murdered, two went missing and were never found, and three were kidnapped, beaten, and raped by the Kasakela. The war was over a sliver of turf – and the combatants were monkeys.

Mysterious SDI defense program deaths beg frightening question - how far will a government go to protect its secrets?

The Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), popularly known as the “Star Wars project”, was first proposed by United States President Ronald Reagan in 1983 . Its stated mission was simple: create a space-based system to protect the United States and its allies from attack by enemy strategic nuclear ballistic missiles. After four years of study, it was announced that a global space-based shield was impossible using existing technology. By then, the world had begun to recognize that dozens of British scientists who worked its projects had begun to die mysterious deaths.

When he turned on his flashlight, he expected to see a small mammal, such as a possum or a rat. Instead…

Countdown to extinction - Suni the white rhino dies. Only six white rhinos remain on the planet.

Calling it a “sorry testament to the greed of the human race”, rangers found the lifeless body of Suni the white rhino in his hut on a Kenyan wildlife conservancy this week. Suni was 34 years old when he died and was one of only seven northern white rhinos left on the planet. That leaves six white rhinos on Earth, only one of which is a male, so sadly, the countdown to extinction has begun.

Top-secret X-37B lands after mysterious object falls from sky, loud booms heard, debris detected on radar

A series of mysterious events last week have some wondering if the top-secret X-37B spacecraft is up to something highly unusual. The X-37B launched into space on December 11, 2012 and remained there for nearly two years. And then it didn’t land. Suddenly, a series of unusual events occurred including mysterious “tiles” falling from the sky, a tremendously loud boom that was heard over three different states, followed by a debris field captured on Arkansas radar. What was the X-37B doing in space all that time?

Sun gets in Halloween spirit - makes spooky jack-o'lantern face for all its fans

The Sun showed its Halloween spirit this week by putting on its best spooky jack-o’lantern face. The incredible image above was captured by NASA on October 8, 2014 and shows active regions on the sun combined to create the spooky image. The sun’s active regions, a storm of magnetic fields, appear brighter because they are emitting more light and energy.

Original Siberian Bigfoot photos surface - animated sequence reveals interesting details

Photos of a Siberian Bigfoot (or Siberian Snowman) walking behind a stand of trees were taken in April 2011 near the mountain top of Sheregesh Green in Russia. Until this week, only edited versions of the photos existed. This new set of nine photos, taken by tourists in Seregese and supposedly witnessed by “a score of witnesses”, put the sighting in better context.

Family flees home infested with 6,000 brown recluse spiders - nightmarish spiders "bleed from the walls"

For most people, the brown recluse spider is the stuff of nightmares. They are not very aggressive – but they move very fast. The bite of a brown recluse spider can cause nausea, fever, convulsions, and even necrosis of the tissue (i.e. death of living cells) leaving a gaping, ulcer-like wound that can expand to surrounding tissue leaving scarring so deep, only surgical skin grafts can repair the horrific damage. For the Trost family, the nightmare became real when 6,000 brown recluse spiders began falling from the ceiling and “bleeding out of the walls” of their Missouri home.

Five crystal-clear disc-shaped UFO photos from Albuquerque, New Mexico circa-1962 turn up in grandmother's photo album

An anonymous couple came forward this week with an amazing set of five crystal-clear photos of a daytime disc-shaped UFO taken sometime between 1961 and 1965 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The man and his wife were going through old personal belongings when they discovered a 50-year-old photo album belonging to his wife’s grandmother. The wife recognized the photos as pictures taken around the time she was born (1962) when her grandfather was a Captain in the United States Air Force and stationed in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She recalled the family living in Albuquerque from 1961 through 1965.

Gibsonton, Florida – Showtown USA (aka Freaktown USA) is home for many famous sideshow freak performers

The migration of sideshow freaks to Gibsonton, Florida began in the 1936 after legendary carnival performers Al “the Giant” Tomiani and his wife, Jeanie the Half-Girl moved to waterfront property in Gibsonton to start a fishing business. “Gibtown” looks like any other non-descript American town with a grocery store, gas station, and library, but if you travel deeper within its streets, you’re just as likely to run across elephants in a resident’s front yard or any number of legendary sideshow freaks who have made their home there for over 75 years.

Schlitzie the Pinhead

From birth Schlitzie looked like any other baby boy but as the years progressed, it became apparent that he suffered from microcephaly, a condition where the face grows at a normal rate but the head does not. Microcephaly bestows upon the person an abnormally small head (often only half the size of a normal head) and sloping forehead. Known as “chaus”, “rat people” or “pinheads”, the condition almost always results in mental retardation and diminished brain capacity. The cause of the condition varies. Sometimes it can be caused when a child’s mother consumes excessive alcohol. There is no cure.

Mass sighing of three UFOs over Breckenridge Colorado - balloons and drones ruled out

The investigation of “three shiny objects” sighted on Friday, October 3, 2014 in the skies over Breckenridge, Colorado continues. The three UFOs, witnessed by hundreds of people in the area, is an interesting sighting because of the movement, or lack thereof, of the three objects. Reports indicate the objects would remain stationary for as long as 15 minutes at times, before moving to form triangles or straight lines across the sky.

New university research study supplies evidence of "life after death" in near-death experiences

University of Southampton researchers have completed the largest ever medical study of near-death experiences (NDEs) and out-of-body experiences (OBEs). From a four-year study of more than 2,000 people at 15 hospitals throughout the United Kingdom, United States, and Austria who “died” from cardiac arrests and were resuscitated, they found that nearly 40 percent of people experienced some sort of “awareness” during the time they were clinically dead and before they were revived. The study is groundbreaking in that it disproves the suggestion that such events are hallucinations or illusions occurring while the person is technically “alive”.

Sharks locked in an intimate kiss? No! It's a rare case of two sharks attacking each other! [Video]

You can usually tell if a shark is hungry by, well, let’s face it – if they’re breathing, they are hungry. But they usually don’t attack each other. In the video below, two sharks go at each other off the coast of Neptune Island in Australia. It’s hard to tell if they purposely attacked each other or accidentally locked jaws while going after the same piece of bait but in the end, the result is the same – we end up with two sharks embraced in some sort of weird, angry kiss.

This woman can sing two musical notes at same time (which freaks Reeko out) [VIDEO]

Singer Anne-Maria Hefele can sing two notes at the same time and the result is nothing short of amazing (Reeko says eerie). The otherworldly sounds (Reeko calls them creepy) that she makes are created by moving the fundamental and overtones in opposite directions. She makes these wonderful sounds (Reeko says they’re spooky) by shaping her mouth and throat and positioning her tongue to change the path of air as it travels from her lungs past her vocal chords.

Yambuku - Ebola virus ground zero and the terrifying discovery (and death) of "patent zero"

The Ebola saga began in 1976 in a small village in Congo called Yambuku and the news leaking out of the area was terrifying – lifeless bodies of feverish birds falling from the sky and human bodies piled by the roadsides formed impressions of the apocalypse in the minds of medical professionals. When samples of an infected Flemish nun’s blood arrived in Belgium, scientists immediately recognized they were dealing with an unknown viral invader– and that it was extremely dangerous.

35,000 walrus unable to find sea ice to rest on - each themselves instead

Pacific walrus are looking for sea ice in Arctic waters and finding that available ice is now much harder to come by. The walrus seek the sea ice to rest on. When they cannot find sea ice, they take the next best thing – an empty beach. In the photo above, an estimated 35,000 walrus beached themselves on a beach north of Point Lay in Alaska after being unable to find an ice sheet to rest upon.

Slow down people! Scientists say we are consuming ecological goods of one-and-a-half Earths

Scientists say we are now consuming the ecological goods of one-and-a-half Earths and if we don’t slow down, there will be nothing left to sustain us. According to a new report, wildlife populations have been cut in half over the past 40 years. More specifically, 39 percent of wildlife on land, 39 percent of wildlife in the ocean and 76 percent of freshwater wildlife have disappeared over the last 40 years. Those are scary numbers.

The loudest sound on Earth occurred on August 27, 1883 and circled the Earth four times

On August 27, 1883, when a volcano erupted on the island of Krakatoa, the Earth emitted a sound louder than any sound in history. The sound was so loud, it burst the eardrums of sailors in a boat forty miles away and circled around the Earth four times before succumbing to silence. No louder sound was thought to occur prior to this event and no louder sound has been created since.

Holy man claims he can bring dead back to life - kills volunteer, flubs resurrection

A pir (a Muslim saint or holy man) in Pakistan excited the villagers of Mubarakabad, Bahawalnagar when he announced he could bring the dead back to life. Muhammad Sabir had already gained notoriety for his ability to perform miracles and was popular amongst the villagers. When he announced he could breathe life back into a dead man (with the condition that the dead man was married and have children), 40-year-old Muhammad Niaz couldn’t pass up the opportunity to experience the afterlife. Indeed, Niaz got to experience the afterlife but unfortunately, after a botched resurrection attempt, will not be able to tell anyone about it.

Woman obviously misunderstands men's motiviations - adds third breast to make herself unattractive

21-year-old Jasmine Tridevil (I’m guessing this isn’t her real name) says she was rejected by 50 plastic surgeons before one cosmetic surgeon (licensed?) agreed to perform an unusual surgery to add a third breast in between Tridevil’s two natural breasts. At a cost of $20,000, the surgeon’s only condition was that she sign a non-disclosure agreement to protect his identity.

The history of the Freak Show

Freak shows were popular attractions during the mid 19th to mid 20th centuries until changes in societal attitudes towards handicapped persons and tightening of local laws prohibiting “exhibition of deformed human beings” led to the decline of the freak show as a form of entertainment. Featuring attractions such as deformed humans and animals, unusual physical performers, “pickled punks” (abnormal fetuses preserved in glass jars), and occasional hoaxes, the freak show has captivated audiences since as early as the 16th century.

No huge Kleenex needed - Snot Bot gathers whale snot for scientists to study

Those crazy scientists over at Olin College of Engineering have developed a robot, affectionately named Snot Bot, that is designed to collect mucus (whale snot) from whales who refuse to blow their noses in huge, conveniently-placed Kleenexes. Unlike whale blubber (thankfully), they don’t want to use the whale snot to make soap, candle wax, or yuk, whale-snot cooking oil. They need the whale snot to tell if the whale is sick or not.

New dinosaur king - Spinosaurus towered over Tyrannosaurus rex and ate pretty much anything that got in its way

Spending most of its time swimming in water, the newly discovered Spinosaurus gobbled up sharks and alligators whole. It had paddle-like feet, dense leg bones, sealable nostrils that allowed it to swim underwater, backward-slanted cone-shaped teeth, and a huge 6-foot sail on its back that would have risen from the water like a shark’s fin. Oh, and it was about ten feet *bigger* than the previous dinosaur king – Tyrannosaurus rex.

DNA evidence proves Aaron Kosminski was Jack the Ripper - case closed?

Has the Jack the Ripper case been solved using DNA evidence? In Russell Edwards’ Naming Jack the Ripper (September 9, 2014), he claims that DNA evidence shows beyond reasonable doubt that Aaron Kosminski, a popular Jack the Ripper suspect, was the infamous killer of at least five prostitutes during the Victorian era. Edwards reached his conclusion based on DNA collected from a shawl found next to the body of Catherine Eddowes, who’s body was found in Mitre Square in the City of London on September 8, 1888, with her throat cut, abdomen ripped open and the left kidney and part of the womb removed.

Amazing video - new method of ants working together - a daisy-chain!

An ant brain is tiny, about 1/40,000th the size of a human brain so it goes without saying, they’re not too bright. But an ant colony of 40,000 ants collectively has the same size brain as a human and working together as a group, they are capable of extraordinary feats. Together they may not be able to drive a car, work a computer, or send a text message but check out the amazing video below which shows a colony of ants forming a long daisy-change in order to pull a dead millipede back to their nest.

Like marriage, tattoos often seem like a good idea at the time. But teens often fail to realize that the cool barbed wire tattoo is going to be little more than a picket fence when they get old. Now you can get a temporary tattoo that eventually wears off (hopefully by the time you have to go out and get a job) and serves a useful purpose while you wait for it to disappear.

Called "streamers", solar power plants are causing birds to ignite in midair

They call them “streamers” for the smoke plume that comes from the birds as they ignite in midair while flying over solar plants. Solar plant operators argue that the puffs of smoke commonly seen erupting above the panels is nothing more than insects or bits of airborne trash being ignited by the solar rays reflecting from the panels. Wildlife investigators however, recently reported witnessing an average of one “streamer” every two minutes at a solar power plant in California.

Watch what happens when astronauts on the moon drop a hammer and feather at the same time

For a long time, Reeko has been trying to convince his readers that despite mind-boggling implications, Galileo was correct – all objects fall at the same rate regardless of how heavy they are. In other words, mass does not affect gravitational pull. Theoretically, in a vacuum, if you dropped a school bus (with the principal inside) and a feather from a tower, both would hit the ground at the same time. Here’s proof.

A 14-year-old Texas boy was found four days after he ran away from home in the most unlikely place – living inside a 24-hour Walmart in Corsicana, Texas. The young teen had set up two hidden “camp sites” inside the store, including a sleeping area tucked behind a row of baby stroller boxes, and survived by eating food taken from the store.

Who's your mummy? How (and why) ancient Egyptians preserved their dead.

Unlike gangsters and politicians who go to great lengths to hide dead bodies, Egyptians did everything they could to ensure the dead body stuck around. They did this because at the time, they believed survival of the body after death was necessary in order to “live again” in the afterlife. Thus the preservation of their dead was extremely important to the people of ancient Egypt.

Earth's magnetic field weakening at an alarming rate - will humans be impacted?

It’s no secret. The Earth’s magnetic field has been weakening at an alarming rate – 10 times faster than in previous years.

On July 11, 1804, the United States Vice President, reacting to insults from the former Secretary of the Treasury, challenged his foe to a duel during which he shot and killed his opponent. Burr was charged with murder in both New York and New Jersey. The charges were eventually dropped although the incident ruined Aaron Burr’s political career.

Scientists discover huge new rocky planet dubbed "Godzilla of Earths"

Scientists have discovered a new planet that weighs 17 times as much as Earth. Dubbed the “Godzilla of Earths” (officially known by its more boring name – Kepler-10c), the planet is a new type of huge and rocky alien world that is about 560 light-years from Earth. Scientists have always thought that a planet the size of Kepler-10c would be gaseous, collecting hydrogen as they grew and eventually becoming gassy Jupiter-like planets. They were surprised to find that despite its gargantuan size, Kepler-10c is a solid, rocky beast.

OJ Simpson innocent? Was Nicole Brown Simpson murdered by Jason Simpson, OJ's son?

An exhaustive new book suggests that O.J. may indeed be innocent for the deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. In the book, Dear suggests that the real murder is O.J. Simpson’s son, Jason Simpson. Dear proposes that O.J. did visit the crime scene shortly after the two victims were murdered but rather than committing the crimes himself, merely initiated a series of actions to help cover up the crime and protect his son. An interesting theory – but does it merit consideration?

Rising global temperatures is turning all the sea turtles into girls

Scientists have always known that reptiles, such as frogs, lizards, and turtles, are very sensitive to temperatures of the area that they live in. In fact, temperatures affect reptiles before they are even born and help determine whether the baby reptile will be born a boy or a girl. 84 degrees F is the preferred temperature for reptiles and if it gets hotter than that, the babies begin to be born as girls. At around 87 degrees F, all baby reptiles will be born girls (any hotter and they die altogether).
