19 Unbelievable Stories People Kept To Themselves

17.

I live in Mexico city. When man of steel came out, me and a couple of friends went to the mall to see it. After the movie we were in line to pay our parking ticket and I said I was going to fly away just like superman. So I got on a knee and pretended to be preparing to take off (just like in the movie). In that precise moment there was a small earthquake. Whenever there is an earthquake everybody gets super nervous and scared, but that time I was euphoric because it seemed like I was the one that caused it by assuming the taking off position.

I saw a dude walking a back road in my town. From afar it looked like a really drunk person trying to walk but as I got closer it looked like all its limbs were fucking broken and twisted. I just sped past, it never stopped or turned to look it was just going its merry way. It was wearing a long black duster style coat. I couldn’t make out any defining details besides looking like they just got ran over by a train.

I was on the hwy one day & a guy in a hummer comes up beside me & places a notebook against the windows with the words “just a smile.” I did not give him any response & made my way slowly to an inside lane two lanes away from him. He starts tracking me & ends up next to me & this time his note says “you’re pretty, let’s have a drink.” Uh, hell no! I am able to get away while he gets boxed in & I make a quick exit up ahead. As I’m sitting at a light thinking I’ve lost him I look down the cross street & see him. Thankfully I live in a secure building & reached my garage just before he’d see me turn in & as the gate closes I see him go by in my rear view. Two weeks later I see on the news they want to talk to a guy in a hummer about a murder they are investigating.
