I was driving my car once and suddenly it stopped running. I had to get out of the car and check what was wrong, but I found nothing wrong with the engine or battery. I turned my head towards a ray of light coming from the city´s electricity cables. The spark of light crawled towards my car. When I turned my car on, my car´s engine started again. It was strange!

That sounds very strange...my most extraordinary experience is maybe not extraordinary but it was the most amazing experience I've ever had I lived in Cuba for a few months back in 2007. I decided I wanted to go on a tourist type trip and back then I had a bit of money. I hired a massive catamaran and crew to take me on a whale watching trip for 2 days. On the second day we were well out to sea looking for whales and the sea was very rough. Then the catamaran hit a wave and the whole thing went totally airborne and at that exact time this massive whale did a jump probably 10 metres from us exactly parallel to us I've never seen anything as amazing as that sight. Since then I've been a fairly big supporter of the sea shepherd cause.

That story gives you something to start a conversation whenever you need an excuse. I love the sea. I wish I have the time and money to go to open sea and maybe watch a big whale like the one you came across. I surely won´t want to come across a shark!

@Mike197602 Yeah! One photo would had been perfect for arousing our curiosity here on Mylot. I could get the courage to get into a steel cage and watch the big sea animals from there. I´ve heard that you can scuba dive with tiger sharks in Cozumel, Mexico

@quantum2020 I am actually very interested in sharks too...especially the dangerous ones I'd love to go in a cage with great whites/bulls/tigers swimming around but I know I don't have the guts for that, I'd be too scared I stick to watching that on TV. On that catamaran at the time it went into the air I was on the netting in the middle being sick Just pure luck I saw that whale to the side and I'm beyond gutted I've no photograph to share

That is very strange but amazing as well. I don't have anything like that-not that I can think of right now anyway.

Whoa that gave me the shivers my friend...that is indeed very strange wow! I think the most incredible incident was when I found out that I lived to survive a very dangerous situation. I should not have survived it, I fell many feet through a plate glass and the glass penetrated my lung ..I walked a good 1/4 mile back to house when I was a child with this big shard of glass in my body. I still have the scar..

@TiarasOceanView Thta was strange, too. Many times, when we are in a dangerous situation, our system does the hard work for us.
