The world of science is pretty good at providing explanations for some of our universe's strange phenomena,

until it's confronted with something it really can't explain.

From meat raining down from the sky to entire islands disappearing,

let's check out some mysterious events that left scientists scratching their heads.

You're listening. You're listening to be amazed.

In April 2016, a concerned Australian MP, Jeremy Buckingham, visited the Condamine River in Queensland,

after strange local reports that the water in the river was on fire.

Unlike most reports of bodies of water becoming flammable, there was no trace of crude oil in the area,

which left residents and scientists baffled.

On closer inspection, Buckingham noticed huge bubble streams erupting from the riverbed.

This is usually a natural occurrence when gas streams underground migrate to the surface.

But when the amount of natural gas being released

was tested, which in Australia just means holding a lighter above it, the resulting fireball was so

powerful it almost blew Buckingham off his boat. After inspecting the surrounding areas,

it was discovered that a fracking site nearby was responsible for the disturbance

in the underground rock's natural containment of the gas below. As such, the gas was pushed

upwards, polluting the river and making it flammable, as if Australia wasn't filled with enough

nightmare fuel already. Crooky, mate.

Did someone order a nightmare fuel?

Can I suggest a side order of Kill It with Fire?

Stories of sewer monsters and alien-esque creatures are nothing new to pseudoscience,

but footage from a South Carolina sewer of giant lumps of what seems to be living, rithing flesh is enough to peak any real scientist's interest.
