The Weirdest thing you ever witnessed ?

RaiseTheBlinds

well for me , 3 things have happened :

1.. Two Fathers claiming the same BABY in a trolley in cornelscourt ( years and years ago) ..... there was absolute murder in the food isle !!!
theres were also 2 trolley's and a baby in each trolley !
they both must have left the child to get something and both returned to the one trolley. they both gunuinely believed the baby was theirs, and were ready to kill each other ! didnt stick around to see it resolved but, guess the wives were called in and some humble pie was eaten , large!!

2. slow rolling fireball high in the sky,...... with a flaming trail.
lasted 4-5 minutes , and couldnt believe it didnt make the news !!! probably 15 years ago now. obviously a meteroite, but fantastic spectacle.

3. 3 and a half metre nurse shark beside me whilst snorkelling in indian ocean.

giz your stories please !!!

I work at a hospital in the emergency room.
The strangest patients are from the local prison.
They get bored and want a vacation. So they swallow unusual items such as spoons, pens, forks, and get to come to the hospital to have them surgically removed.

After the surgery they get to lay around and recover instead of actually being productive. IMO that's a crappy reason to put your body through that once a week!

Well I saw a really really really really old person before. Far older that I previously thought someone could get with out dying. It was just so old, and I say it because I'm not sure if it was an old old old man or an old old old woman. Words can't describe how old it was.

I used to hand search luggage at Dublin Airport for flights to the US. I pull a guy out of the lineup, and search his bag. Even though he's travelling alone, I begin to notice that there's quite a bit of women's underwear in his suitcase. I eventually come to a sock that has a long, rubbery sausage-like object in it. I quickly close his case, and say "That's fine, sir. Have a nice day"

You should have asked him why did he have a weapon of mass destruction in his bag?
Then sent him for a quick search :eek:

A bloke lying in the middle of road on stephen's green at 2am headbutting the road and shouting while taxis dodged him.

a couple doing the no pants dance in a phone box. Left little to the imagination and was outside Cuba* in Galway a few years ago. It was alot busier back then too.

Walking to work one day and saw a youngish guy lurched over the steering wheel of his car, the car was parked at the side of the road on a grassy verge, with the drivers door open, not wanting to be nosey I walked passed, but noticed he wasn’t moving much I found it very strange and thought something was up, stupidly I walked back to the front of the car, he was staring right at me through me and as I got closer I realised he was DEAD. :eek: :eek: :eek:

!

Myself and my brother seen that fireball aswell, I think it was near 20 years ago though.

Strangest thing I ever seen was a gun fight on Parnell St at about 3 am in the morning. I was just coming out of Fibber and I was very very drunk, it all seemed a bit surreal.

This is how it was resolved:

Guy A- "Ah, sorry, look, this one is mine, see? I remember buying the two packets of frozen peas.":)

Weirdest thing I witnessed? I've seen this bearded guy guy running in nothing but shorts and runners twice now in Dublin. I understand jogging/fitness etc, but in just shorts?

Heyes

The towers around the twin towers falling down,and all the caos (sp?) on that day, lines of people waiting to give blood, people covered in dust, fighter jets flighing over the city, no phone lines working, ambulances and police sirens constantly ringing for days... more a case of a weirdest experience than weirdest sight.

I saw a mini cyclone (tornado? twister? whatever) in Limerick about a year ago. It was about 20 feet high and lasted about 5 seconds. Don't think anyone has topped the OP's stories yet though.

ScumLord

When I was really young we used to go into an old unused graveyard in town to do the weige board. One time on the way out a big old rotten tree exploded behind us.

Saw some sort of UFO type thing when camping.

Saw an old zz-top looky like in cezh republic singing to the bartender with his pants around his ankles.

I remember that fireball....it was about 21, 22 years ago. Never forget it. Was around winter time, about 8pm and remembered looking up and a huge ball of flame went silently through the sky. Never been so scared in my life. I was nine years of age and ran home and made my mother phone the police to check if any planes or shuttles (!) had crashed. Always thought since I imagined it......until now!!!!

I was on the 130 coming home from work one night, the bus pulled up outside St Annes and a guy jumped on the bus, screaming flailing his arms everywhere . Then I realised he had no clothes on. So everything really was flailing everywhere. He ran away and jumped in a car. Oddest thing ever. Poor woman bus driver, she sat there not knowing what to do for a few minutes. Someone in the car had videotaped the wholething.

I_and_I

I once witnessed a friend who was off his face on pills have a 15min conversation with four of his friends who weren't even in the room, not the strangest thing I have ever witnessed but definatley the funniest. Those things are insane. Mind you he had taken about ten.

Mossy Monk

a flying silver cigar shaped thing flying in the sky. really weird. about 10 witnesses so i'm not going mad

yesterday on the way to Waterford i saw 3 UN tank like vehicles going the opposite direction. never seen anything like that before

Duff

The silent disco at <snip> when your pissed. Take the headphones off and its mad, everyone dancing with no music on!

Also seen a few UFOs..wierdst was one night comming home from my girlfriends house i seen a yellow ball that broke into two yellow balls and ''danced'' across the sky!

RaiseTheBlinds

ok,.... im about to add number 4. to the list of wierd things, after much debate with myself ill say it.

one day in work (first floor) ... i was standing up against the window frame looking out,....when all of a sudden the number 10 (I think) bus pulled up and stopped in traffic.... directly on eye level with me is the top deck of the bus, and looking a bit closer inside i find myself face to face with a guy "entertaing" himself with his trousers around his ankles...... we instantly made eye contact and i dont know if i was more freaked than he was !!!!!

some poor girl was sitting right in front of him with her earphones on and reading a book, and was totally oblivious to what was happening !!!!

......... also just to note............

gosh , the meteroite i saw wasnt that long ago,..well i was probably 12 or 13 years old at the time i think,..... it was a beautiful clear night and there wasnt a breeze in the air,.... i remember being able to blow smoke rings as i was skulking down the lane sneaking my mums Silk Cut Red.

but yeah,... it was bizarre , glad i mentioned it , cause i asked everybody i knew if they had seen it and everybody thought i was telling porkies.

Unpossible

1. When walking down the main street of St. Petersburg me 7 my friend passed the dead body of a middleaged man in a suit (looked like he wasn't short of money). The veins in his head were purple (he was bald), his eyes were open and someone had put a light see through sheet over him, but nost of it had blown off. He was on his back next to a building, main street 10 minutes walk from my hotel and nobody seemed to care. There was no police line, no paramedics, no police, nobody. Loads of people passed without giving a second glance. Its when I realised that life in russia is cheap.

2. In St. Petersburg again, some guy had a full grown brown bear ( don't know the breed name but he was big) on a chain and had him jumping and posing for photos.

3. Seeing people in chinese trains choose the squatting toilet instead off the sitting (weird to me because there was nothing in that toliet to hold onto if the train lurched and there was a western toilet right next to it that they avoided).

I am trying to remember more stuff, Im used to odd things so its hard to figure out what others would find weird
