From time immemorial, mysteries have always troubled to scientist. Up to now, despite the most advanced technologies, some supernatural phenomena have remained inexplicable. One of the most typical cases is the Oakville Blobs.
Local officer David Lacey shared that when he was on patrol that night, his wipers couldn’t wipe off the substance, so he had to pull over at the gas station. “It was very mushy, almost like if you had a jello in your hand.”
Initially believing that this was just a rare event that would leave no harm, on the evening of the same day, David and hundreds of Oakville residents suddenly had difficulty breathing. The symptoms were similar to those from flu but more severe, causing the patients to have extreme vertigo, blurred vision, and an increasing sense of nausea that didn’t wear away even with the help of medicine.
Even the doctors couldn’t explain this disease, which lasted from 7 weeks to 3 months for those contracted.
After various studies, they were astonished again, as the sample contained two types of bacteria, one of which is normally found in human intestines. Still, no one could identify what they were and how they caused illness among the entire town.
One of the staff, Mike Osweiler, speculated that the substance could have been human waste from an airplane. However, the idea was immediately rejected by the Federal Aviation Administration, whose regulations require that to be dyed blue, while the substance is white.
Some other theories suggested that this strange phenomenon came from testing a new biological weapon, or a biological attack by the military. This theory originated because residents saw military aircraft appearing every day over the town of Oakville, shortly before the rain occurred.

Although there have been many speculations, this incident is still left open. Later, the incident in Oakville was also ‘reproduced’ on the program Unsolved Mysteries on May 9, 1997. To this day, this remains a mystery in human history.

The rain turned out to be blobs
The bizarre incident happened on August 7, 1994 in the town of Oakville, Washington. Around 3 a.m., some people suddenly heard the pitter-patter outside, thinking it was a drizzle following the previous storm. However, the unusualness was that time, that “rainwater” looked more like glue that dripped very slowly on the window glass.
