It is believed that the light is some kind of marsh gas apparition that confuse the fishermen, making them chase the light.

Ghost lights in West Bengal.Īleya (or marsh ghost light) is the name given to this unexplained phenomenon over the marshes, often spotted by the fishermen of West Bengal and Bangladesh. Tourists are often spotted posing, holding the rock from the other end to make themselves look super human. Yet, somehow, this massive piece of rock doesn't seem to move, defying all laws of physics. The slope is apparently so slippery that the local children use it as a natural slide. The Butterball is a giant rock, 5 meters in diameter, carefully placed on a smooth slope. Krishna's Butterball is a tourist attraction in Mahabalipuram, a town well-known for its stone carvings. Known as the disappearing beach, Chandipur beach in Odisha is unique in the sense that the water level recedes to almost 5 kilometers during low tide and hits the surface of the shore back during high tides. Why is this happening? No one seems to have a definite answer till now. Once the rain has stopped, hundreds of fish are found on the ground. Witnesses of this event state that it begins with a dark cloud in the sky followed by lightning, thunder, strong winds and heavy rain for 2-3 hours. In fact, in Honduras, it's a yearly occurrence. What's funny is that this has happened in other parts of the world as well. It was a foggy day and when the mist finally lifted, residents were bemused to find fish on the roads and their rooftops. But how about 'it's pouring fish'? That's literally what happened in Jamnagar on 24th October, 2009. 'It's pouring cats and dogs' is a well-known phrase.

It is, however, said to be dangerous to venture into the maze without the help of a guide. The superlative central arched hall is almost 50 meters long and about three stories high without any pillars or beams! The shrine is also known for its mysterious design of the 'Bhul-Bhulaiya' maze, which is made of more than 1000 narrow staircase passages. The strange thing about this massive shrine lies in its architecture. Gravity defying palace in Lucknow.Īn architectural marvel, the Bara Imambara a.k.a the gravity defying palace, is one of the grandest buildings of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. However, in reality, it's only an optical illusion. Can you imagine a car going up a steep hill with the ignition off? Crazy, right? Standing at a height of 11,000 ft above sea level in gorgeous Ladakh, the Magnetic Hill is known to possess strong magnetic properties which have the strength to pull cars uphill. You have to take a trip to Leh and check this out for yourself. However, a study done by the Government Of India later revealed that the rain had been coloured by airborne spores from a locally prolific terrestrial algae. At first, scientists thought it was a meteor burst, while some even went to the extent of terming it as 'extraterrestrial' rain. Heavy downpours of red coloured rain fell sporadically, leaving a pink stain on clothes. This strange event took place in Kerala between the 25th of July and 23rd of September, 2001. When Earth passes through the debris, specks of comet-stuff hit the atmosphere at 140,000 mph and disintegrate in flashes of light. The 'most famous' of the meteor showers, Perseids is an annual phenomenon that occurs between mid-July and early August when Earth passes through the remains of comet 'Swift-Tuttle', the greatest activity occurring in the second week of August, N Sri Raghunandan Kumar of Planetary Society of India said.Įvery 133 years the huge comet swings through the inner solar system and ejects a trail of dust and gravel along its orbit. According to weather reports, heavy downpours during the past weeks gave way to floods that killed several people in Iraq and also caused havoc in neighbouring countries like Saudi Arabia, Jordon, Egypt, and Israel. A video that went viral on November 16 shows a frozen river flowing through the desert mass of the country. The Sand River in IraqĪn interesting weather phenomenon in Iraq has given birth to a ‘sand river’, a flowing mass birthed by rains and hair storms in Iraq. Is there a scientific reason behind them, or is it just an act of God? Check this out and know for yourself.
