Unsolved Mysteries that continue to baffle mankind
#1: The Disappearance of Frederick Valentich
No trace of Frederick Valentich nor his aircraft has ever been found. In 2012, Keith Basterfield, an Adelaide researcher who has been investigating the disappearance since 1978, concluded, "The only thing we can say for sure is that the plane and pilot disappeared
#2: Overtoun Bridge
No one knows why so many dogs have jumped to their deaths off Overtoun Bridge in such eerie fashion. However, theories include the dogs sensing depression in their owners, the dogs knowingly committing suicide, the dogs succumbing to some kind of supernatural power, and the dogs chasing the scent of something below the bridge.
#3: Bloody Rain of Kerala, India
The blood-colored rain returned yet again in 2012 and caused panic in the Indian people. There is still no definitive explanation for its color.
#4: The Oakville Blobs
No samples of the blob remain today, and no one knows for certain what caused them to rain on Oakville.
#5: The Toynbee Tiles
There are more than 60 tiles in Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, Washington D.C., Indianapolis, St. Louis, Baltimore, Cleveland, and Kansas City. They also have also been found in in Brazil, Chile, and Argentina.
#6: The Disembodied Feet of the Pacific Northwest
In 2012, authorities broke the case and concluded the feet were those of suicide victims, most of whom had jumped to their deaths from a bridge over the Fraser River, which flows into the Pacific Ocean at Vancouver. The feet were found in rubber-soled running shoes and boots because fish could chew threw materials of the shoes. The rest of their bodies decomposed, while the remaining severed feet in shoes were carried down the coastline.
#7: The Tamam Shud Case
In addition to all of those mysteries, there is the baffling introduction of a young nurse who may have known more than she let on, the name Alfred Boxall, a second copy of "The Rubaiyat," the revelation of a mysterious sighting on Somerton beach, and countless other twists and turns that have never been solved.
#8: The Black Dahlia
In the history of The Black Dahlia case, more than 60 different people have confessed to the murder, 25 of whom were considered actual suspects by the DA. While some of them were disproved, new ones were added. The case has never been solved, and there have been theories with the killer having ties to the Cleveland Torso Murders, The Lipstick murders, and the Zodiac killings.
#9: Mass Deaths of the Arkansas Blackbirds
The mystery lies in why the widespread deaths have occurred in the same town in back-to-back years, and why birds haven't just dropped dead from the sky all over the U.S.
