I have seen some pretty strange things in my life. And I have had some pretty bazaar things happen to me. Feel free to one up me. Probably the strangest thing I have ever seen was when I was out running my dogs. I usually ran my dogs on some property behind my house but the guy that owned the property was grazing his cattle on the property so I made arrangements to run my dogs a few miles away from where I lived. I had never ran my dogs there before. As usual I was running with my AR15. Coyotes were common and cougars weren't uncommon. Anyway I had ran about 45 minutes when all of a sudden my dogs slammed on point. (I can't remember how many I was running but it was typical for me to have 10-12. I raised and trained hunting dogs at the time.) anyway when I first saw the dogs point I immediately scanned the area to determine what they were pointing at. I finally noticed something about 700-800 yards ahead of me. I raised my rifle to view what I was looking at and I saw heads buried from the neck down. I looked at my dogs and I can see they had their hackles up. So I will stop my narrative to see if I have anyone guessing what I was seeing and if anyone can one up me. |

Let's hear more about your story. I got up too my dogs who were frozen on point and was able to see the first head which was a blond woman shoulder length hair. |

1998, driving through some National forest west of Susanville CA; middle of nowhere, middle of the night.
Come over a rise and see a shirtless dude running along the side of the road with a huge branch over his head fully aflame. Figured it was either drug or a cult, did not stop. |

Is that even a thing? Quoted:

What appeared to be spontaneous human combustion. In fact, the fat in our bodies burns. And when wrapped in heavy clothing, the fabric will act as a wick and burn very slowly, for hours and sometimes days. However, it usually takes some fuel like spilled alcohol or flammable synthetic fabric and a spark to get the fire going. |

Figured it was either drug or a cult, did not stop. okay the end of my story: semi anticlimactic. I eased my way closer and was finally able to discern what I happened upon. I was about 75 feet in front of my dogs who were locked solid on point. What I happened upon was a shooting range. The farmer who gave me permission to run my dogs had apparently buried mannequin heads into the ground for target practice. I don't have words to describe the terror I had before coming to this conclusion. |

Didn't see 'it', but on our 'neighborhood forum' (Nextdoor). Some guy is complaining about drones that are shaped and look like birds. With other people chiming in that they have seen the same thing. I'm starting to wonder if russians are opening a portal nearby.
Sidenote, you can read some entertaining shit on Nextdoor. |

That's kinda messed up. I'd be a bit leery of that farmer afterwards. Quoted:

Multiple personalities. I thought it was bullshit until I saw it for myself in an interview. Seeing a woman change from normal to a man's voice and a completely different mentality like dual booting a computer was fucking insane. |
| Sister had a solid black cat that got too close to the fence and one of the dogs was able to grab it and kill it. Brother and I burried it in the back lot. A few days later we get off the bus and an identical cat is just chillin on the sidewalk like he belongs there. |

Family vacation in the mid 70's. Traveling with the parents in a 1975 Winnebago Chief going through Chicago on Lake Shore Drive during the huge annual air and boat show. Bumper to bumper traffic and we are barely moving. Two cool things happen. First, as we get close to uptown a mounted CPD officer rides up next to us as we are sitting stopped at a light. We had the side windows open and the screens pulled back. His horse stuck his head in the camper and scared the living shit out of my mom who was sitting at the kitchen table by herself. Turns out horsie was only interested in the bowl of apples sitting there and copper let mom feed him one. But the big show happened about 15 minutes later after we moved in amongst the buildings on the left and the lake on the right. Again, traffic moving at a crawl so we were watching as a large crowd was looking up at a building that we couldn't see. Suddenly they all started running and there was a blur and then a quick flash of color. In a few minutes cops were everywhere. Yep, we just kinda sorta witnessed a jumper hit and bounce. We were directly across but probably several hundred feet away all kinds of lanes of cars going in each direction between us. So didn't really see anything but the flash coming down and the bounce, which was about car roof high so probably 5 or so feet. |

Another strange story.
I was out Elk hunting. Beautiful day. Clear blue skies, snow on the ground, perfect elk hunting weather. I had walked 2-3 miles. Not a soul insight when I saw a flash in front of me. I raised my rifle scope onto what I presumed was a white tail. I was elk hunting but I have no problem sighting in a buck just to get a good look at it. Then in the white tail moved and I saw a dark huge blob extend from it. I dropped my rifle thinking that I was too close to see what I was looking at. I had my scope centered an inch high at 100 yards. Anyway when I dropped my scope I lost my visual. I couldn't find it. So I put my scope up and found the white tail again. I looked all over for horns but was just about ready to call doe when my scope went dark again. Wanna guess what I was looking at? |

During a flight to the UK, while over the Atlantic, I saw a ball of blue light roll along the top of the right wing until it got near the engine. It then exploded with a loud bang - the ball of light, not the engine.
The pilot announced immediately that we had a slight static discharge on the wing. Wierd though. The ball of light was between two and three feet in diameter and had enough "texture" to its surface that you could tell it was actually rolling along the wing. |

I was totally creeped out. My heart was racing. But I focused my scope on the heads. There was about 5 and even though I was in an area that had zero crime I felt like I was walking into hell hotel. I kept moving to my right flank. I had about 300 yards to my right before a fairly steep canyon. My thoughts being if the SHTF I would run zigzag to the canyon and skirt the Clift. I had a 30 round mag in my rifle and a 25 round in my hip pocket. I got up too my dogs who were frozen on point and was able to see the first head which was a blond woman shoulder length hair. Nevermind I see you posted the answer |

1999. Third floor apartment, back patio area smoking a cigarette, approx 9pm, two green lights appear in sky from my extreme left and fly until out of sight to my right.......in about 5 seconds.
They seemed to be at airplane altitude....but when you watch airplanes traverse the sky it takes minutes. These things were hauling ass. Wasn’t lights or lasers, wasn’t cloudy, the lights were round and well formed. I swear it was aliens, nothing moves that fast. |

Tonight two of us including one science professor who believes only in science, not alien mysteries etc. saw something in the Utah sky. It was just north of the star Gienah in Cygnus. It was flashing randomly and NOT moving in an orbit. It appeared to be very distant because the reference star is magnitude 2.48 and the object was slightly lower mag. It then very slowly moved in a straight line north then about 3-4 degrees of movement it stopped or disappeared. I ran all kinds of checks against known objects, artificial satellites, space junk, found nothing. 9:40PM MT tonight.
What was that? Geostationary sats maybe tumbling but no data to support this. |

I have to be of a select few who have watched a fat man poop on scope.

Ball lightning from about 300 meters away. Strangest fucking thing I've ever seen. Also, I arrested a methhead once and I opened the backpack he had on him and saw I what looked like I human head in it... turns out they guy was an artist and it was a mannequin head her used when drew. |
| How about a jacked-up 4x4, stopped in the street while the driver talked to the two women standing at the side of the road? Neighbors talking? Get closer and the truck pulls further to the side. The walker I get a good look at doesn't look right. Then I notice weird movement up the street, like I'm watching an ape shambling towards us, or a zombie in a movie. Proceed slowly up the street and see a young, half naked dude, holding a baseball cap over his crotch and waving an axe as he's walking backwards. Trying to decide whether to pull over and call 911, when I see two units responding with lights. |

In grade school, our class went on a field trip to the local courthouse. The original courthouse had been added on to and ended up being an odd "C" shape with a small courtyard in the center.
When lunchtime rolled around, we ate bag lunches in the courtyard. There were several street lights on rectangular poles and one of the kids set their glass Coke bottle next to the lightpole. A dog wondered through, walked up and sniffed the Coke bottle. He then walked just past the bottle, backed up, and shit a turd perfectly balanced horizontally between the lip of the bottle and the lightpole. . . . . . . . . . Now it's a poop thread.

| I saw a chick projectile vomit from a reclined position in the back seat to the farthest point on the front dash in a 78 lesabre 4 door. For the record that's like 38 feet. It was on the way back from an all day outdoor concert. There were 7 passengers. It's still burned into my memory. |
