Weird World: 12 Oddball Events We Somehow Missed

We have all heard some pretty strange stories in our lives. But every once in a while, we come across an event that is so incredibly strange that we can't believe it actually happened. For example, take the case of the man who woke up in a coffin after being pronounced dead. Or the woman who found a live frog in her salad. These stories may seem like they were taken from a work of fiction, but they are actually based on real events. And while we may never know exactly what happened in each case, one thing is for sure: strange things do happen, and sometimes, truth really is stranger than fiction.
