Iron, the king of all metals, is used in almost everything from the foundations of a house to a bicycle chain. Unfortunately, iron cannot escape its fate, slowly turning into rust.

How did something made of 98% iron last so long? Scientists have found the answer to this question, but how the ancient blacksmiths discovered this fact so many years ago still surprises archaeologists.
Belmes faces
Does it seem to me, or does this spot on the wall look like a person looking at you? This is one of the Belmes faces who were in the Pereira family home.

The strange thing is that faces stay in the house only for a short time, and then they disappear. Research has been done on what causes this effect.

Disappearing lake
In May 2007, a lake in Patagonia, Chile, literally disappeared, leaving behind a 30-meter pit, icy mountains and dry land. It was not some kind of small lake. The lake was 5 miles long! When geologists last examined the lake in March 2007, they found nothing strange. However, something happened during these 2 months that not only made the lake disappear, but also turned the river flowing out of it into a small stream. Geologists wonder how such a large lake simply disappeared. This could have happened due to an earthquake, although no tremors were observed in this region. Ufologists claim that this spaceship dried up the lake. This puzzle was never solved.
Viscous rain
On August 7, 1994, a surprise awaited the residents of Oakville, Washington. Instead of the usual rain, people saw jelly falling from the sky. When that rain passed, almost everyone developed severe flu-like symptoms that lasted from 7 weeks to 3 months. Finally, after the mother of one of the residents of the city became ill, having touched the substance, he sent a sample of it for research. The results shocked all scientists. The drops contained human white blood cells. The substance was then brought to the State Department of Health in Washington for further testing. Here they found that the gelatinous drops contain two types of bacteria, one of which is also present in the human digestive system. However, no one was able to identify this substance, and how it was associated with the mysterious disease that gripped the city.
Donnie Decker
He was nicknamed the rain boy in 1983. Donnie was visiting a friend of his when he suddenly went into a trance. Immediately water flowed from the ceiling and fog filled the room. His friends called the owner, who was worried about what they saw. Some time later, Donnie was sitting in a restaurant with his buddies when the rain started pouring down on their heads. The restaurant owner immediately kicked him out into the street. Years later, due to a minor offense, Donnie went to jail, where he too caused havoc when it rained right in his cell. After complaints from inmates, Donnie explained that he can make it rain at will, and immediately demonstrated this by pouring water on the jailer on duty. Finally, he was released and found a job as a cook at a local restaurant. Donnie's real whereabouts are unknown, as is the reason for the mysterious rain.
