2 Aluminum Wedge of Aiud


Back in 1974, a group of workers in Romania discovered three different objects 10 meters deep in a sand trench.Two of the items were prehistoric elephant bones that have been dated as old as 2.5 million years ago. The third object however, is an aluminum wedge that was found together with the ancient bones. This discovery dumbfounded most researchers, as aluminum was difficult to create even by 19th century standards. While some call it evidence of extraterrestrials, others are calling it a hoax. Whatever it is, we may never know.

3 SS Ourang Medan

https://cdn4.list25.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Slide1602.jpg

What happened to SS Ourang Medan or “Man from Medan” in Malaysia is perhapsone of the most fascinating and mind-boggling mysteries that ever existedin seafaring history. Everything began with an SOS message in 1947 that mentioned the captain, along with the rest of the crew, was dead. What’s worse, even the telegrapher died during the transmission of the message. When the Silver Star was able to receive the distress call and went to inspect the ship,they confirmed the deaths of all aboard. Speculations of ghosts, hazardous chemicals, and even aliens have been raised, but there is still no conclusion as to what actually happened.

4 Nazca Geoglyphs

5 Lal Bahadur Shastri

He died an unexplainable death since he left the country healthy. Many have claimed that he died of heart attack, butthe doctors and other specialists who have checked him out, including his wife, confirmed that he was A-okay. His wife had also made the assertion that the Tashkent Pact, upon signature, gave the chance for him to be poisoned. This was never proven since there was no post-mortem diagnosis of the body so every assumption that could be answeredwere already included in the grave.

7 Wow! Signal

https://cdn3.list25.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Slide1971.jpg

When Jerry R. Ehman worked under theSETI Project of the Ohio Wesleyan University’s Perkins Observatory, he did not expect that he would be able to pick up a radio frequency supposedly coming from deep space. He was able to get a 72-second signal from the constellation Sagittarius and was never able to get it again. Up to this day no one is sure about the origin of the signal. It derived its name, however, from the “wow!” that Jerry wrote in the margin of the printout.

Extraterrestrials
https://cdn4.list25.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Slide1771.jpg

From the mysteries found in the EasternIslands, to the Bermuda Triangle, and even with the Roswell Incident during World War II, men have always been in question as to whether we are not alone in the universe. With some claiming to have been abducted and others calling hogwash, there is as of yet no consensus.

10 The Lost City Of Atlantis

https://cdn4.list25.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Slide1671.jpg

The City of Atlantis has been imagined asthe crowning city of Neptune, where mermaids and mermen live. But based on what Plato has discussed during his time, specifically with his two dialogues Timaeus and Critias, it specifically mentioned the existence of Atlantis based on the storiesbeing heard during the journeys, and howAtlantis was in its prime state, thus giving a clue that the place did exist as Plato was a real entity. Now that it sunk into the deep, many are still wondering if it is real, knowing that there are certainobjects underwater that may be the remnants of this once beautiful city.

The Loch Ness Monster


For ages, people have been hearing about the Loch Ness monster and how it baffled everyone thinking that it is a creature unlike any other. There have been many sightings over the years and photos and videos of actual footage have been checked and looked at time and time again, confirming if it could be some kind of sea serpent or a descendant of the dinosaurs. Even up today, as some are claiming, it still exists and swims under the waters.
