Nature holds the power to destroy the entire human race of this planet yet it’s generous enough to let us exploit it. Isn’t that the most beautiful and selfless gesture? On the other hand, humans try their level best to be as creative as possible. Well, many times the results look weirder rather creative.
Every picture has its back story and when you’ll read through these stories, your curious mind will ask a lot of questions for sure. To prove our point we’ve brought you a list of pictures that will either make you look twice or close your eyes and click next. So, be prepared as going further will take you on a ride full of emotional ups and downs… Definitely, some of these are filtered and edited to some extent as this collection is made through world wide web.
Warning: Some of the pictures can be amusing while others can be disheartening.
Wave Hitting Hard
In 1989, Jean Guichard clicked this incredible image of a lighthouse nearly covered by a giant wave. The lighthouse located on the northwestern coast of France is named as Phares dans la Tempete, la Jument, the term itself means “lighthouse in a storm.” Surprisingly, the photograph also shows Theodore Malgorne, the lighthouse keeper checking out the giant wave as we check out the weather. However, the true story behind it is that Theodore was actually waiting to be rescued along with a group of his friends who were inside the lighthouse.
Here’s a good to know information: The people in the lighthouse survived the powerful waves and the structure itself is still standing straight in the middle of the ocean.
Camping With Raccoons
From about 30 years from now, a lady was camping alone in the woods when she heard some weird noises right outside her camp. She was terrified by the thought that it can be a bear. Out of curiosity, she grabbed her camera and clicked a picture before going out of her camp.
Wait, aren’t raccoons supposed to be solitary animals? But then there’s no explanation to this late night party that these raccoons were up to. Campers are usually warned to protect their food as raccoons are omnivores and opportunistic eaters who prefer to work at late nights.
Tornado, The Background
In 1989, this girl got her photo clicked with a tornado in the background. Reports suggest her name is Audra Thomas and she is a resident of Beaver City, Nebraska. She poses calmly when an F-1 tornado looks like it is right behind her. However, there’s a gap of around 1 mile in between.
The surprising fact about this picture is that the person who clicked her photo is her mother, Marrilee. Neither our team nor the National Weather Service recommends this fervor for taking photos as with the tornados you never know which direction it might turn to.
Small Piggy Big Jump
This little piggy made his way out of the running truck. This guy seemed to know the right way to utilize the overcrowded livestock truck to get freed from the slaughterhouse. All we hope for is that this guy was aware of the trick of tucking and rolling. Otherwise what might have happened to him must be drastic.
Moose Boat
In 1908, the photo of the then President Theodore Roosevelt crossing the river sitting on a moose was quite popular. Before we take it any further, it is necessary for you to note that this photo is fake! It was made as a political ad that turned into a big joke. Moose was the political mascot of the opposition party. In reality, it is the outcome of two photographs: one is Pres. Roosevelt sitting on a horse and other of a moose crossing a river.
Frost Flowers
Obviously, they are made of ice particles that cover a plant. In the places where the temperature turns minus, the plant’s inside temperature doesn’t decrease. This results in transpiration and a fragile formation.
