53 Terrifying Real-Life Encounters That Prove Truth Is Stranger—and Scarier—Than Fiction
Seeing two old women, who were clearly battling a virus of some kind sampling all the dishes at a buffet with the same spoon.
Watch a woman press her finger with a long nail into a muffin and then leaving it. I saw the muffin spring back so no one would have noticed. I did notify the vendor.
Seeing a man clip his nails in a restaurant.
walked into a 5 person restroom at a prominent restaurant that allowed cigars. This was a while ago. Someone had quite literally plastered every single surface in the place with vomit. I cannot imagine the force she must have had with her vomit. Objectively, it was astonishing. Personally, I’ll never be the same.
Guy walked out of a porta potty at a boat launch, with both his hands covered in his own feces. He simply looked at me and said “no tp” and proceeded to walk down toward the lake.
An old man leaning over the balcony of a mall clipping his nails, letting them rain down on the people below all while humming jingle bells in the middle of the summer. Considered pushing him over.
I knew a girl in college who just didn’t take care of herself. No exercise, no skin care, didn’t shower as often as she should, the whole kit and kaboodle. Anyways my gf at the time was best friends with her so I saw her a fair amount despite us not getting along personally either. One day we were walking across campus and she says “I’m kinda hungry.” I didn’t think anything of it until she reached into her regular a*s purse and pulled out a block of cream cheese. I watched her take multiple bites from this stick of warmish cream cheese. I was disgusted.
Saw a kid playing with the urinal water at Newark airport last year. Still gag when I think about it.
A woman chaging her baby’s diaper inside of a restaurant. Not even doing it in the restaurant’s bathroom. Doing it where people are eating food.
I was 2 tables away and I could smell that baby’s s**t. Do that s**t in the bathroom or something.
Pun not intended.
Well, a classmate of mine in the Swedish equivalent of high school blew her nose into her hand and licked it up during class.
I will preface this with the two people involved knew each other, but I as a witness did not know that.
Man is going into a Casey’s General Store as a woman is walking out. He holds the door for her in the way where she has to walk under his arm and very close to his armpit. Dude is wearing a shirt where he had cut the sleeves off, so his armpit fro is very near her face. He takes his other hand and pushed her face into his sweaty armpit.
That s**t was nasty. It was a hot day, pushing 105 F and the man was a sweaty outdoor worker.
bleh.
I saw a guy put his hands down his pants and rub himself then remove his hands and sniff them while walking at the traffic lights.
I saw a girl in a club semi-squat down in the middle of a dancefloor and just p**s a f*****g river out across the floor. Seemed like only other girls slipped in it, my group all watched from the sides and stayed completely dry but it seemed like everyone around her was oblivious until they or their girl went down and slid away.
Saw a girl fall at the climbing gym, she landed with her arm posted and hyperextended her elbow. When she stood up, her arm was flopping like a noodle.
Went bowling and watched a girl slip over the line holding the bowling ball. She crunched down on the floor and somehow snapped her humerus. Her friends thought she was playing, so i walked over to her and she was in straight shock. By the time 911 came she was vomiting all over herself and all over me. At least my body was gracious enough not to vomit back onto her, but I definitely lost it after they took her away. I’ll never forget the sound of that crunchy snap
Bleh.
Local teens making g*n shot sounds downtown beach city on a busy tourist night. Everyone ran. But there was a grandma on a bench with her grand daughter and ice cream. The girl was terrified and the grandma had this look like she knew she could not protect her grandchild. I have little doubt that was traumatic for them.
As for the laughing teens, sorry your parents have you living in a tourist beach city. How horrible it must be for you, you poor thing 🙄
Someone taking a s**t on the floor at the grocery store.
I was on vacation in Las Vegas and walked out of the casino we were shopping in to go back to our place. A woman had just ran her car down the strip and pulled on to the sidewalk and k****d several people. We missed seeing it happen by seconds, we saw the aftermath.
A young woman all dressed in gothy black, leading a young man by a leash connected to a dog collar. Just out there amongst the crowds in the square. Unusual for New England.
I was in the emergency room, and there was a psychiatric patient who literally flung his feces at a nurse and called her the worst of the worst racial slurs. He was almost immediately sent to a hard-core psychiatric hospital and was taken by the cops out of the emergency room.
Saw a guy in Mexico get on the subway without a shirt on, with bleeding cuts all over his body, and his shirt balled up in his hand. He laid his shirt out and it was full of broken glass, which he then laid down on top of and rolled around on.
He wanted money, but all he got was looks of confusion and repulsion.
