What are the most interesting strange but true stories you know?

At a school, there was a teacher who had a very squeaky chair. One day, during a really quiet exam, the chair started making the most ridiculous noises every time the teacher moved. The students couldn't help but laugh. What made it even stranger was that the chair had never made those noises before. It was like it knew it was the worst time to start squeaking and that made the whole situation extremely funny.

One interesting strange real story is about a dog that saved a whole family from a fire by barking until they woke up. It's strange because the dog had never shown such behavior before.

There's a story of a Christmas gift that kept traveling. A package was sent from one country to another as a Christmas present. Due to some postal mix - ups, it ended up traveling to three different continents before finally reaching its recipient just in time for Christmas. It was a long and strange journey for that little package.

One interesting strange true story is about a group of birds that would follow a particular car everywhere it went. The owner of the car tried everything to get rid of them but they just kept coming back. Another is that a book in a library was always found on a different shelf every morning, even though the library was locked at night.

The mimic octopus is very interesting. It can change its shape and behavior to mimic other sea animals like sea snakes, lionfish, and flatfish. This helps it avoid predators and also hunt for prey more effectively.

One interesting story is about a parrot that could recite an entire Shakespearean sonnet. It had been taught by its owner over a long period of time. Another is a case where a tree in a small town was found to have a car stuck in its branches. It happened when a storm blew the car into the tree. The last one I'll mention is that a woman received a letter from her long - lost twin sister who she didn't even know existed until then.

A really strange 'weird but true story' is about a group of people who found a boulder that seemed to be floating in the air. It was actually an optical illusion created by the surrounding terrain and the angle from which it was viewed. But when they first saw it, they were completely baffled thinking it was defying gravity.

There was a woman whose ex - boyfriend had cheated on her. She knew he was really vain about his car. So, she got some washable, but very bright pink paint and painted a big heart on his car with the words 'cheater' inside it. It took him days to get it off and he was the talk of the town for a while. It was her way of getting back at him for the pain he had caused her. This story is interesting because it shows how emotions can drive someone to take such a bold action.

A story about a dog that could predict when its owner was about to have an epileptic seizure. It would start whining and acting strangely hours before the attack. Scientists believe the dog could sense some small chemical or electrical changes in the owner's body that humans couldn't detect.

The story of the Taos Hum is quite strange. People in Taos, New Mexico, reported hearing a low - frequency humming sound that no one could explain. Some thought it was caused by industrial equipment, but investigations found no such source. Another strange story is about the Voynich Manuscript. It's a book written in an unknown language and filled with strange illustrations. Decades of attempts to decipher it have been unsuccessful so far.
