1. Man saves falling babies twice

According to Time Magazine (Miscellany, Oct. 17, 1938), In 1937, a mother was standing in a window in a 4 storey building in Detroit, Michigan when she accidentally dropped her baby from the 4th storey window. Luckily, there was a man below named Joseph Figlock walking below. He was a local street sweeper and was working beneath the window when the infant fell from the shy and hit him in the head and shoulders. The tackling toddler was thankfully not killed. However, he and Mr. Figlock were both injured.
The following year, another mother was in a high-rise building when she allowed her 2 year old son David Thomas, to fall from the window. Ironically, Figlock, doing his job sweeping out an alley, was again struck by the tumbling baby. Remarkably, once again both of the survived.

Joseph must be some catch, both figuratively and literally. Not only can he ensnare small children like a German Shepard at a Frisbee throwing competition, but women seem to toss their offspring at him like rice at a wedding! One thing is for sure, if you lived in Detroit in the 1930s and you threw your baby out with the bathwater, Mr. Joseph Figlock was going to be there to save the day!

2. Left handed president coincidence
The United State

Only 10 percent of Americans are left handed and when you look at the number of US presidents that are left handed, you would expect to see approximately the same but of the last 14 of the US president, more than half of them were left handed. This includes 5 out of the last 7. Over the last 20 years, almost every presidential candidates has been left handed.

In 2008, John Michell and Barack Obama were left handed. In 1992, all 3 of the candidates who were running were left handed. This phenomenon is strange because in the 18th and 19th centuries, left handedness was considered a punishable disability. Kids who were left handed back then were forced to be right handed. These all changed in the 1970s and children were allowed to be left handed.

3. Hugh Williams: Perpetual Shipwrecks survivor
(The Unsinkable Hugh Williams)

4. The DEUS EX twin tower Omen

[img][/img]
In 2000, a pc game was created called DEUS EX. When the skybox artist was creating the game, he forgot to add the twin towers to the New York city skyline. Some people say the memory constraint involved made it impossible for him to add the Twin Towers. Other people believed that he simply forgot. Whatever reason, he had to come up with an in-game explanation for the reason that they were not added. He decided to say that a terrorist attack was responsible. When they created this explanation, there was no way that they knew that a year later, a real terrorist attack would take down the towers.
It is a spooky coincidence.

5. Two brothers killed in a moped


In 1975, a man was riding a Moped in Bermuda when he was struck by a taxi and then killed. This showed the world how dangerous riding a moped can be. However, people kept riding them. A year later, the man’s brother had paid that the moped that his brother was killed on repaired. On the day that he finished repaying the repaired fees, he took it out for a ride and sadly, he also was struck and killed. The crazy part was that the man was struck and killed by the same taxi driven by the same driver who happened to be carrying the same passenger as his brother’s death.
This is regarded by many as the greatest coincidence EVER

6. Bullet kills its intended victim years later

1n 1883, a man named Henry Zigland was shot at. He left his girlfriend and she committed suicide. In order to make him pay for what he has done, his girlfriend’s brother shot him. The bullet only graced his face and lunged into a tree. Right after shooting Zigland, the girl’s brother committed suicide himself. Years later, Zigland wanted to see the place where he was almost killed as he believed that he was the luckiest man alive for surviving. He went to the tree and decided to cut it down because it still had the bullet. The task was too difficult for him to do alone therefore, he took a more drastic measure. He took a few sticks of dynamite as he believed blowing off the tree would be the best way to get the bullet out. When the tree exploded, the bullet in the tree propelled from the tree and shot Zigland in the head, killing him instantly. It was very creepy that the very bullet that was meant to kill Zigland as those years before eventually did.

7. The JFK and the Lincoln coincidence

America had two presidents who were loved by all; John F Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln. The fact that these two presidents were loved by so many is not the only thing. First Abraham Lincoln was elected into congress in 1846 and John Kennedy was elected a century later in 1946. Lincoln won his election in 1860 but his inauguration was in 1861. John F Kennedy won his election in 1960 but his inauguration was in 1961, exactly 100 years after Lincoln.
Both presidents had a vice president and a successor named Johnson.
Both presidents were shot in the back of the head in front of their wives and both were shot on a Friday. Lincoln was assassinated in a Ford’s theatre and Kennedy was assassinated in a car which was made by Ford.
Lastly, both presidents have 7 letters in their name.

8. Arch Duke France Ferdinard assassination coincidence

When Arch duke france Ferdinard of Austria was assassinated, he was in a car with a license plate that read A111-118. When it first happened, people didn’t think much of it, it’s what happened later that’s really strange. After the assassination occurred, a war broke out and it ended with an armistice on November 11, 1918. The license plate of the car that the Arch duke was assassinated in was a spooky omen. The plate was coded A for Armistice, 11 for November and 18 for 1919.

9. Message in a bottle competition

A man named Mark Anderson was manning the fishing boat Corpeus in 2006 and on this day, he found a message in a bottle that was 92 years old. Thanks to his discovery, he earned a spot in the Guinness book of world record for finding the oldest message in a bottle ever recovered. He was very proud of his accomplishment that he often brag to his friend and fellowship fisherman Andrew Liber. Six years after Anderson found his message in a bottle, Andrew Liber was working as a skipper of a Scottish coast when a message in a bottle floated by him. The message was 98 years old. He took his friend’s spot in the record book. This leave us asking the question that; are these message in a box drawn to the man or to the corpeus.

19. James Dean’s bad luck car

This is one of the weird coincidences that actually happened. James Dean had the nickname “Rebel without a cause” and he was one of hollywood’s most popular heartrobs. In 1955, he was killed in an awful car accident while driver in his Porche. He’s not the only person who was injured by this car. After the accident, the car was towed to a garage for repair. There was a mechanic working on the car and the engine fell out and shattered both of his legs. Years later, the engine was sold to a doctor who put it in his race car. The doctor was then killed in a race accident while racing in his car. Another driver purchased the drive’s shaft from James Dean’s porche and he died in the same race as the doctor. Years later, the garage that the Porsche was repaired in ended up being destroyed by a fire. The car was still mostly intact as it was sent to be displayed at a museum for show off. While on display, it fell off the mount and broke the hip of a teenager there to view the car. After this incident, the car was being towed to Oregon, where it fell off the tow bar and crashed through the front of the shop it was parked in front of. Finally, in 1959, while the car was sitting on steel supports where it was found broken into 11 pieces mysteriously. The cursed car no longer exist.

11. Virtual twins died and born on the same day

The founder of Ferrari died in 1988, the same year the footballer Mesut Ozil was born. What is strange is that these men are identical. Some wondered if Enzo Ferrari was reincarnated as Mesut Ozil
