Fish falling from the sky

There are unexplained mysteries in the world that humans try to find out more about, but are still terribly afraid of what they might find.

In June 2009 a headline read, "Tadpoles, fish fall from sky in Japan." The same thing had happened in Australia and in other parts of the world. Even jellyfish, frogs and a cow torn into small pieces had fallen from the sky.

There have been a number of 'weird' things happening such as the supposed sightings of aliens or UFO's. While researching some interesting facts for my blog I came across a website where people can view the pictures other people supposeldy took of aliens. The funny thing was that these people registered on the sight because they believed that this mystery could be fact, yet everyone on the sight critised the images saying that they had been photoshopped.

Ghosts and other unexplainable phenomenons are also a cause of concern for humans, but most of us choose to ignore these strange things when others speak about them. This is because we are all afraid that there may be things we can't explain. We go to great lengths just to prove things (e.g space missions) so that we feel better, yet we make movies about everyting that can't be explained because we want to believe in the impossible.

There are things greater than us and I think this is what makes us scared. We've been the dominant species for as long as we can remember, and losing that would be too much for us as humans to even imagine.

  1. Weird things do really happen and you are right- what we don't know scares us.

  2. Often human beings are afraid of those things which they cannot control. In order for them to be in the driving seat they have to have control. History has provided us with numerous examples of the fish falling from the sky phenomenon - rare, but true.
