Atlantis, Camelot, Disney World; these are just some of the legendary locations spoken of in ancient poems and texts which we believe are most probably fictional. The Roman Empire was one of the largest in Earth’s history, with its borders spanning as far as Spain in the West, Iraq in the East, Britain in the North and Egypt to the South. When you consider how some religious people today are still triggered by the idea that dinosaurs once roamed the Earth, imagine what kind of effect it had on the people of the early 19th Century when it was confirmed that these bones once belonged to a seventy-foot man eating reptile.When this pair of metal cat claws was discovered in a Peruvian cave back in 2014, it seemed that Charlie Kelly’s finest invention had actually been created fifteen-hundred years before him.Upon first glance you and I might think that the Voynich Manuscript is nothing more than an old biology textbook written in an ancient language, but if you know what you’re looking at then a WTF moment smacks you straight in the face like an unwanted Valentines gift from fist of Chris Brown.As if the discovery of dinosaur bones wasn’t unsettling enough to those of a devout nature, in 2016 we made yet another find that not only brings religion into question, but presently accepted science too.The culture of Ancient Egypt has fascinated man for centuries, with their hieroglyphic language, spectacular tombs and weird cat fixations making them one of the most intriguing civilizations that ever lived.

Ordo Templi Orientis or Order of the Temple of the East is a secret religious society which began in a similar fashion to the Freemasons.When you think of the word Hashshashin what kind of image does it conjure up? Formed in 270 BC by Indian King Ashoka of the Maurya dynasty, this secret society contained only nine men, but was believed by some to be one of the most powerful groups in the world. Have you ever experienced that weird feeling you get when you suddenly learn a new word or phrase, then you can’t stop seeing it everywhere for days, weeks or even months afterwards? This British society was basically a club for 19th Century horse whisperers, with its members required to be employed in the care of horses, to keep the secrets of handling horses, and be willing to shake hands with the devil during the group’s acceptance ritual. Remember that Indian group with only nine members? Well the Giga Society is even more exclusive, consisting of just six or seven members in total, depending on which randomly Googled source you’d like me to believe. The Skoptsy are by far the most gruesome secret society on this list, as rather than celebrating human sexuality like Aleister Crowley and his pals, this brutal Russian sect would castrate men and mastectomise women in the belief that genitals and breasts were sinful.

Ancient creatures roamed the Earth…and some new findings are shedding light on the unknown. Some of these creatures are a little freaky. Some are entirely new species.

At first glance, Elasmotherium sibiricum may not seem all that astonishing.If you’ve seen the first video we did on astonishing creatures that once roamed the Earth, then you’ll remember that weird shark with the gigantic furled-up under-bite. As its name suggests, the Microraptor family were distantly related to the more famous Velociraptor genus, with both creatures having sprung from the Shanag genus of the Early Cretaceous period. Imagine going for a paddle and stepping on one of these bad boys. A giant rat you can ride? Yes please. Chalicotherium was a bizarre creature that existed in Europe, Asia and Africa between 28.4 and 3.6 million years ago. No list of the planet’s most astonishing creatures would be complete without naming its largest ever inhabitant – The Titanosaur Argentinosaurus Huinculensis – Or Tito Argento to his friends.

Weird tests and can help you discover…your weird psychology. Just like a buzzfeed quiz.

Your neuroscience, iq, personality, etc. These tests can even be “brain games.” You can test for racism (don’t give bad answers), if you can hear colors, or even test if you have a resting b**** face. They can be interesting, so we’ve gathered the Top 10 as a list, and they are pretty weird, but based in science &psychology. Even so, I’ll bet most of us have taken a personality quiz at one point or another…

….and who hasn’t spent ten minutes of their life trying to work out when they’re going to die, how much of an 80’s chick you are and which game of thrones character you’d like to die being spooned by.

I like to believe that I am completely free of all bias, whether it’s racial, political or otherwise. Has our last entry made you realise you’re not as woke as you thought? This one’s a little trippy, and I’m not sure how scientifically accurate it is, but what the hell let’s try it anyway. Hypnoid dot com’s shape test uses the Pierley Redford Dissociative Affect Diagnostic to test your brain’s affective response system, and while the results are often worded like a crap horoscope you’d read in Cosmo, the test itself is pretty darn trippy. Anyone else remember that early 2000’s website Hot or Not?Ever wonder if you’ve got flea bites? If you’ve uploaded a photo to Hot or Not and everyone’s told you you’ve got resting bitch face, then it’s important you get tested. This next one is mostly for residents of the USA, but since American culture has infected every corner of the globe then non-residents may wanna give it a shot anyway. If you’re in a relationship and your sex life is getting a little boring, you might consider introducing something new into the equation to spice things up.

Ever get the craziest feeling when you’re thinking about someone and at that very moment they call you on the phone? Doesn’t that just freak you the heck out? Are coincidences rooted in the reality of facts?

It’s fair to say that Jennifer Bricker’s life didn’t start out how she would have hoped, considering that she was born without legs, with her heart on the wrong side of her body, and she was then put up for adoption by her parents. I can’t decide whether this next story is a genuine coincidence or if the guy involve is simply the stupidest criminal in existence. What do you think?If you thought the story of Jennifer Bricker was weird then just wait until you hear the remarkable tale of the Jim twins, whose lives are not so much coincidental, more an exact carbon copy.That last story was pretty bizarre, but surely this kind of thing only happens once every bazillion years or so, doesn’t it?

In June 2007 the wrestler Chris Benoit murdered his wife and seven-year-old son, before taking his own life using a weights machine.
