11 Bizarre Personal Stories That People Encounter

You can only embellish a story so much before it becomes improbable. However, if you really think about it, belief is based on a hard-core theoretical probability that can be tested and scientifically derived, whereas asserting that something has a non-zero possibility of happening is based on believe. Therefore, using that reasoning, even the most improbable tales might still be true.
The following list is also asserted to be true, regardless of whether you accept it or not, despite how implausible some of them may seem.
People have started revealing information about themselves online that is entirely accurate because it happened to them, yet it still sounds fantastical.

#1 It's all in the heritage, you know

I am related to William Henry Harrison - the president who died from hypothermia because he wouldn't wear a jacket. My great grandfather and his son both died from hypothermia as well but under slightly different experiences. I have almost died from eating way too many vitamins, jumping into a ceiling fan, and jumping from a cliff. My dad almost lit a gas station on fire. Basically, we are a very dumb bloodline starting from William Henry Harrison.

#2 That one time when gaining weight is a good idea

I beat anorexia. I'm a guy and I do not have photos of me from that time (due to shame) so I have no proof. I have gone from 70lbs to ~130lbs.

#3 Dodged a bullet there

I took my mother for a surprise trip to NYC. She got married to my father there in '68. The surprise was manufactured by way of telling her we were going to Australia (we live in New Zealand, so a trip to Australia is not a huge deal, it's the type of thing you could do for the weekend) and therefore she packed a bag and brought her passport. We got to the airport and said "Surprise! We're going to New York!" and she cried her eyes out with delight.
When we arrived, on our first morning, I said "Okay, what do you want to do?"
She said "When I was last here, in 1968, the Twin Towers weren't complete, so, I'd like to go to the top of them."
"Your wish is my command!" I said and off we went to the WTC.
That was the afternoon of September 10th, 2001. Suffice it to say, there was a particular poignancy when we looked out the window at around 8am the next morning.

When I was a kid, I woke up to find my cat giving birth to her kittens on my pillow, one inch from my face. I took it as a compliment.

#6 Meeting both of your exes at the altar

I was the best man on both sides of a lesbian wedding because I had dated both the bride and the bride, stayed close friends and introduced them to each other after our breakups.

#7 Well that ended well

My dad kidnapped me and took me to Singapore for very malicious purposes (i'm sure you could imagine). i was 15 and my dad literally had fake documents and suitcases filled with random clothes. when we got there we went to a sketchy hotel and after 15 minutes he went to the bar. a bit after that, some guy just walks in. i was confused but he began muttering saying i was 'too pale' and 'too old' and he left. i called my dad but he didn't answer so i climbed out through the window and went to the police. they put me on a plane home that same hour.
i don't really tell people because it's a bit of a crazy story and sounds made up (hence why it's here) but yeh.

#8 This kid experienced Tony Hawk'ception at its best

I was at a store when Tony Hawk was signing autographs. I was only 10 at the time and was a huge fan. One of his early video games had just come out. The store had a couple TVs on the wall and some video games to play. Being a kid I waited for one controller to open up and someone leave. A kid ended up leaving and I grabbed the controller and started playing and minding my own business. A couple minutes later the store wanted to grab photos of Tony playing his own video game. He came over and grabbed the second controller and began to play multiplayer with me. Probably played for 10 minutes. The bonus was it was also my 10th birthday. So I played Tony Hawk Pro Skater with Tony Hawk.
I do not have photos of myself playing the game with him but I believe my parents have a couple of photos of me with him and getting his autograph. I still have the signed board on my wall.

I once successfully ran an unfunded shelter for ~100 homeless veterans....as a homeless civilian.

#10 He would've gotten away with it if it wasn't for that meddling blood type

Source: aoyfas

I found out my "father" wasnt my biological father in 10th grade Biology class. We were learning about blood types and traits. I raised my hand thinking I was a smart a*s, "You're chart isnt accurate, my dad has AB negative and I'm O positive." My teacher said "I think your mom has some explaining to do!". And we all chuckled.

Turned out, he was not my father.

At age 50 odd and with limited to no video game experience, my mother completed Mario64 before I did, in about half the time it finally took me to do it.
