The Fairy Chimneys of Cappadocia
Turkey’s Cappadocia region is extremely an exclusive for its beautiful
nature and history. The Fairy Chimney also called tufa rock cones are
located in a region once known as Cappadocia, which ran through the
historic Silk Road trading route. The ancient civilization shows the
sings how they carved out towers of rock, give way to homes thousands of
years old but still decorated with original frisks. The fairy chimneys
are result of a geologic process that started millions of years ago,
when sculpted by wind, flood water, and volcanic eruptions rained ash
across eventually hardened into stuff, a porous rock, covered by a layer
of basalt. Ultimately, the lengthy work of erosion instigated, the
softer tuff wore down, giving way to pillars, stand as tall as 130 feet. Source: CP

Hidden Away in a Small Cave
Hidden away in a small cave, back in 1836, a group of young boys
discovered 17 miniature coffins, each containing a small wooden figure. Investigations by police found that the discovery could have a chilling back story.It is thought that the tiny coffins could be connected to the murders of Burke and Hare, which took place in Edinburgh in 1828.
Burke and Hare were a pair of Irish immigrants who committed a total of
16 murders and then sold the bodies to doctors for use in dissection
lectures. They were eventually caught and executed.
People believe that the coffins are connected to the killers because of the number. The belief is the 17 coffins represent the victims of Burke and Hare, along with the first body they sold (the man died of natural causes). Many of the figures were lost or destroyed, however, the remaining ones are currently on display at the National Museum of Scotland.

A Bizarre Video Showing Cars Seems to Levitate Into the Air
A bizarre video has surfaced, showing cars which seem to levitate into the air without warning. The mysterious force sent multiple cars into the air on the footage uploaded to LiveLeak. A Reddit user has since found out the apparent cause however, saying :
"A telephone pole was being installed. There was a steel cable that was
coiled on the road that (they believed) should have been no problem for
cars going over it. The street sweeper truck on the right went over it
and wound up the cable in the rotating cleaner. The other end of the
cable was attached to the pole on the left of the video. The cable was
brought taut and caused all that damage to the trucks and car".
