Existence is quite bizarre. Sometimes we can end up taking that for granted, and then suddenly, life throws us a reality-shattering curveball that leaves us unable to figure out what happened no matter how much analysis and logic are applied to the strange event. This fun and disorienting AskReddit thread takes us down a lightly unsettling rabbit hole, where people share their most unforgettable "glitch in the matrix" moments.

    Font - dressinbrass • 10y Diving at about 80 feet in molokini crater off Maui, I was looking at a reef when felt something smack my tank from behind. I looked up and my dive buddies eyes were like saucers. The bump was from one of three bottle nose dolphins. They circled around us for a few minutes then darted away. We were just awestruck in 80 feet of water with 30 pounds of gear while these amazing animals had a good time around us. Humbling. 186 ...

    Font - likeahurricane • 10y My weirdest experience was also in Indianapolis. I was sitting at a light in a convertible, and a truck driver pulls up and shouts, "Hey y'all want some mayonnaise?" and then picks up a huge, 64oz+ container of mayo and throws it at me. Thankfully I caught it. Could have gone horribly awry, though. Still to this day I don't know why this happened. edit: Recurring question: Not only did I eat the mayo, I was on my way to a cook out, so a lot of people ate it. 4 936 ...

    Font - Pizzadude · 10y I was riding with my sister, and she glanced at the rear view mirror and said, "Oh my god..." I glanced back and saw a truck flipping end over end. Not rolling sideways, flipping end over end. My brother in law and I ran back to help, leaving my sister and nephew a ways off because we knew it was going to be gruesome. The driver, a teenage girl, crawled out and stood up... without a scratch. Apparently she pulled into the other lane to pass, but there were cars coming befo

    Font - [deleted] • 10y When I was about 13 we had a ritual during the summer where we would hang out at my buddies house and alternate between hanging on his front porch and playing Super Mario in his second floor bedroom. One day we were doing the same old on the porch and decided to go in and fire up the Nintendo. Good decision. After about ten minutes we heard a tremendous crash from the four corner stop out front and the whole house shook. Being closest to the window I looked out and saw a h

    Font - [deleted] • 10y Disclaimer: I live in an old farmhouse. So, I was lying on my couch surfing the internet on my laptop, when something tickled the right side of my neck. I batted it away, thinking it was just a fly, but I saw something sort of move away out of the corner of my eye. I turned to look, and saw nothing unusual. I went back to perusing the internet for a moment, paused, then looked over my other shoulder. Trailing out from under the pillow my head was on was the scaly body of a

    Rectangle - snipawolf · 10y When in Michigan when I was little, we saw a lightning storm at night on the beach. The whole sky was lit up, and the lightning was practically continuous for minutes on end. There was no wind, only the greatest "fireworks" display I have ever seen. 99 ...

    Font - FlawlessCowboy • 10y Well thing is I didn't witness the vent with my eyes, but rather my ears. I used to work security for a simulator building on the weekends. It was an ideal job for a college student. Plenty of downtime, which meant homework, music, reading, movies, games, etc. Anyways I happened to be working the 11-7 shift one night. It was my preferred shift, I've always been a nightowl. The building is empty as usual during the weekends, and I had recently done my rounds. I often c

    Font - turn my music down and make sure it wasn't something wrong with the speakers. I then hear it a second time echoing down the hallway even louder. I then closed the door to the security office and looked down the hallway (one wall was glass) from the office almost expecting to see a frakking raptor head my way. I eventually decided I had to see what this was making the noise to make sure the A/C or something wasn't screwed up. Rather timidly I approach a set of doubledoors I ad identified a
