Some days in other parts of the world are more unusual than others.
While we have our usual rain or snow, some odd things have fell from the
sky: a bag of marijuana, vampire fish, meteorites, and what not! Events
seemed like a page from a Book of Revelation or a Hollywood apocalyptic
movie, but they are certainly real! These stuff aren’t made for
fiction, too–science can actually explain them. Here are 10 of the
craziest things that fell from the sky.

A Meteorite Fell On A Woman While Napping In Her Living Room
A meteorite fell from the sky and onto a napping woman in her own
living room in Alabama, USA. Ann Hodges was sleeping in the living room
couch when the meteorite came soaring through the ceiling and smashed on
her hip.
She became a minor celebrity afterwards with offers from
around the world to purchase the meteorite from her. A bitter court
battle ensued as Birdie Guy, owner of the rental house, sued to take
ownership of the meteorite. Eventually Hodges obtained ownership for
$500 and the meteorite is now in possession of University of Alabama.
Fish Fall Out From the Sky in Small Australian Town
In a small outback town in Australia, residents were speechless when
they witnessed fish falling out from the sky. Christine Balmer, Lajamanu
resident, shared: “The fish fell in their hundreds all over the place. The locals were running around everywhere picking them up.”
Balmer
reports that the fish were ‘all alive when they hit the ground.’ Thus,
they would have been alive when they were flying up in the clouds. This
wasn’t the first time residents reported of seeing fish falling from the
sky.
Vampire Fish Fell From The Sky, Terrifying Residents
In June of 2015, a mysterious ‘vampire fish’ fell from the sky in a
small town in Alaska. Everyone was terrified by this strange-looking
fish with five rows of sharp teeth all around the town, dead and
alive–in gardens, roads and parking lots in Fairbanks, Alaska.
They
were eventually found by scientists to be arctic lampreys. It is
believed that the lampreys fell from the sky because of seagulls who
carried them.

Candy Rain in Napa, California
Something odd happened between September 2-11, 1857 in Napa,
California: it began raining candy and sugar! No one knows why it really
happened, but here is a snippet of the report: “It’s said that on both
of these nights there fell a shower of candy or sugar. The crystals were
from 1/8th to 1/4th of an inch in length & the size of a goose
quill.”
Additionally, “Syrup was made of it by some of the lady residents of the section.”
3 U.S. Army Humvees Fell From the Sky
In April 2016, a video showing 3 Humvees falling from the sky and plummeting to the ground went viral.
The

Airborne Brigade. When the first Humvee fell, someone yelled ‘Oh yes!’
followed by laughter. The video is still under investigation, but Army
confirmed that no one was hurt.

Vietnam. The biggest was 45 kg found in a stream in Tuyen, Quang
province and another was found in Yen Bai weighing 250g.
Local
reports were alarmed at the mysterious orbs falling from the sky.
Initially they were believed to come from old satellites, but as most
parts were undamaged these may have belonged from a failed satellite
launch.

were 40 guests in the house and were horrified when a plane dumped the

In Arizona, a family was shocked to see a huge bundle of marijuana
crashing their roof of their garage in the middle of the night. It was a

They believed that the weed was
probably dropped by an aircraft by accident. These bundles were normally
dropped in the desert and city outskirts.

It wasn’t until a few days later when they were found by police that the fallen girl wasn’t really an angel, but a sex toy.

Turtle Crashes Into A Car’s Windshield, Alive and Unharmed

Florida. The turtle came through a woman’s windshield, bounced off the
passenger seat and landed on the dashboard. Bjanes had minor injuries,
but the turtle survived unscathed.
Police believed that another vehicle ran over the turtle and was thrown airborne, flying into the woman’s windshield.
