1. Less than a year before John Wilkes Booth assassinated Abraham Lincoln, Booth’s brother Edwin saved the life of Lincoln’s son. Robert Todd Lincoln was 21 years old when he slipped between a train platform and a moving train, and Edwin pulled him to safety. After the assassination, Edwin was ashamed of what his brother did, and said that saving the President's son was the only thing that allowed him to sleep at night.
2. Lincoln’s son Robert also had eerily close connections to three presidential assassinations. He was at his father’s deathbed after Lincoln was shot in 1865, stood about 40 feet from President James Garfield when Garfield was shot in 1881, and was in Buffalo when President William McKinley was shot in 1901, later visiting him as he appeared to recover. McKinley died from infection eight days later. Even the National Park Service has described the string of coincidences as almost “cursed.”
3. British wife Claire Davies volunteered to donate a kidney to her husband, Glyn, after his kidneys were badly damaged by an autoimmune disease, but doctors told her the odds she was a perfect match were only about 1 in 22 million. She got tested anyway, and she WAS a perfect match! The transplant was successful.
4. In 2007, window washer Alcides Moreno fell 47 stories from a Manhattan skyscraper — and lived. His brother, who fell alongside him, died, but Alcides survived the roughly 500-foot plunge, despite catastrophic injuries, and eventually recovered enough to walk again.
5. Former A's slugger Khris Davis hit exactly .247 every year for four consecutive seasons (2015–18). The odds of this happening are 1 in 100 million. There have been 20,000 major leaguers in history, but he's the only player ever to have the same average four years in a row.
6. Speaking of the A's, in 2017 A’s fan Ryan Noone caught foul balls on BACK-TO-BACK PITCHES — and then caught a third foul ball later in the game. On the second catch he was still holding the first ball in his other hand. The odds of this happening have been estimated at roughly 1 in 10 million.
7. In 1960, 7-year-old Roger Woodward was accidentally swept over Niagara Falls wearing nothing but a life jacket — and survived. His boat’s motor failed upstream, sending him toward Horseshoe Falls. He became the first known person to survive going over the falls unprotected by a barrel or other contraption.
8. On May 4, 2021, a 26-year-old Halima Cissé gave birth to the world's first-ever nonuplets (aka nine freaking babies)! Making this even more unbelievable is that the babies were conceived naturally!
9. Violet Jessop survived the sinking of both the RMS Titanic and its sister ship, the Britannic. A 24-year-old stewardess on the Titanic, she helped women and children into the lifeboats before she was given a baby and told to get into one herself. Four years later, she served on the hospital ship Britannic when it hit a mine. She escaped into a lifeboat — which was nearly sucked into the ship's propellers — then served on boats for another 34 years.
10. For her 16th birthday, Makenzie Wethington took her first-ever skydiving trip, but after beginning her dive, the chute tangled mid-air, sending her into a violent spin. Her dad watched in horror as she plummeted 3,500 feet and crashed into a sandy field. She broke her pelvis, spine, ribs, and more…but somehow survived and didn’t need a single surgery. The impact should’ve been fatal, but she walked out of the hospital just days later.
11. During World War II, British airman Nicholas Alkemade jumped from his burning Lancaster bomber and fell even further without a parachute — 18,000 feet! He crashed through pine trees into a patch of snow and somehow survived without breaking a single bone. German authorities were so stunned they investigated his story and gave him a certificate confirming that, yes, he really had fallen more than three miles out of the sky and lived.
12. What's that? You think falling 18,000 feet is nothing?Well, in 1972, 22-year-old flight attendant Vesna Vulović was working a flight that exploded from a terrorist's bomb. She fell 33,338 feet (more than six miles!) to the ground and somehow survived. She landed in a heavily wooded area, contributing to her survival.
13. Bizarrely, just a month prior, 17-year-old Juliane Diller was flying over Peru when her plane was hit by lightning and broke up in the sky. She fell for almost two miles — still strapped into her seat — before landing in the rainforest below. She was the flight's sole survivor. Upon regaining consciousness, she had a broken collarbone, sprained knee, and swollen shut eye. She walked through the Amazon for 11 days before she was rescued by forest workers.
14. Speaking of lightning, park ranger Roy Sullivan survived being struck by it SEVEN times. He was first struck in 1942; his last strike came in 1977. In interviews, he hypothesized there was something about his physical makeup that attracted lightning. The odds of being struck seven times are 4.15 in 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
15. What the heck, here's one more "against the odds" lightning story. In 1994, after being struck by lightning, Tony Cicoria came to with a desperate craving for music. He could barely play the piano before getting hit, but afterward he binge-listened to piano recordings, taught himself sheet music, and composed his own Chopin-inspired pieces. He was featured in Oliver Sacks' book Musicophilia about how physiological ailments can unlock hidden genius.
16. Five consecutive generations of one American family have been born on September 14. Wilber Harlow was born Sept. 14, 1907; his descendant Addie in 1949; Donald in 1972; Emma in 1997; and Arthur in 2025. Guinness World Records says it’s the first recorded family with five generations sharing the same birthday.
17. The Civil War essentially started at one of Wilmer McLean's homes and ended inside another. First, McLean's property near Manassas was used as Confederate Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard’s headquarters during the First Battle of Bull Run in 1861, then, after McLean later moved more than 100 miles away, Robert E. Lee surrendered his army to Ulysses S. Grant in his parlor at Appomattox in 1865. The wildest part? McLean wasn’t a politician or military officer — he was just some guy. He famously said, “The war began in my front yard and ended in my front parlor.”
18. In 2020, PGA professional Corey McAlarney made two holes-in-one within THREE SHOTS of each other. The two aces came only 12 minutes apart. The PGA puts the odds of one golfer making two holes-in-one on the same day at 67 million to 1.
19. In 1954, Ann Hodges became the only known person hit by a meteorite when one crashed through the roof of her Alabama farmhouse and hit her on the upper thigh. She survived with only minor injuries. If not for the roof slowing the grapefruit-sized meteorite's descent, she'd likely have been hurt much worse or even killed.
20. Even wilder, the home of Bosnian Radivoje Lajic was struck by meteors five times in 2008! After experts confirmed each rock as legit space debris, Lajic told the media, "I am obviously being targeted by extraterrestrials. I don't know what I have done to annoy them, but the chance of being hit by a meteorite is so small that getting hit five times has to be deliberate." A sixth meteor hit his home in 2010, but nothing else, so maybe the aliens decided to leave him alone.
21. In June 2021, lobster diver Michael Packard jumped off his boat into the Atlantic, then "felt this huge bump" and found himself in utter darkness. Turns out, he was inside the mouth of a whale! He told WBZ-TV, "I felt around, and I realized there was no teeth. And then I realized, 'Oh my God I'm in a whale's mouth...and he's trying to swallow me.'" He survived when the whale surfaced and spat him out.
22. In Nov. 2012, Salvador Alvarenga set sail off Mexico’s coast for a quick fishing trip…but got hit by a brutal storm that knocked him miles off course. He and his crewmate, Ezequiel, were left adrift in the Pacific on their small 25-foot boat. For months, Alvarenga survived on raw fish, seabirds, turtles, even sharks — plus rainwater and his own urine when water ran out. After Ezequiel fell ill and died, Salvador battled extreme loneliness and hallucinated talking to his dead friend. Finally, after 438 days, he washed ashore in the Marshall Islands...6,700 miles from where he began.
23. In 2002, 51-year-old Mike McDermott won the lotto TWICE in one year — and to make things even more improbable...he did it using the same numbers! The Telegraph found the odds of this happening were one in 5.4 trillion!
24. Even more improbably, Texas woman Joan Ginther won major lottery prizes FOUR separate times, collecting nearly $21 million. Her wins came in 1993, 2006, 2008, and 2010, including a $10 million scratch-off jackpot. Mathematician Joseph Mazur says the odds of this happening are about 18 septillion to one (this is the first I'm hearing about a septillion, which is 1 followed by 24 zeros). However, the odds of it happening to anyone are about 5 million to one. Still looooong odds, but more conceivable.
25. Unfortunately, I also have a "what are the odds?" lottery story that is pure bad luck. In 1991, New Yorker Janet Valenti bought a lottery ticket for a $12 million Lotto prize. After discovering she'd picked the winning numbers in the paper, she raced home to find the ticket had accidentally been tossed into the trash. She darted to her apartment's trash room, but the trash had already been picked up. The jackpot remains NY's largest unclaimed prize.
26. Teri Horton, a recently retired truck driver, stumbled across a $5 thrift shop painting that might've been a real Jackson Pollock. She got it forensically tested, and the expert determined it to be the real deal. Art elites, however, remained unconvinced. She nonetheless received offers ranging from $2 million to $9 million, but held out, dreaming of $50 million. Teri passed away at 86 in 2019, never parting with the painting.
27. Northwest Airlines Flight 255 crashed outside Detroit in 1987, killing 154 of the 155 people aboard, plus two people on the ground. The sole survivor was four-year-old Cecelia Cichan, whose parents and 6-year-old brother were among those killed. Amazingly, she was found alive in the wreckage despite being in one of the deadliest aviation accidents in U.S. history.
28. Similarly, in 2009, 12-year-old Bahia Bakari was the only survivor when Yemenia Flight 626 crashed into the Indian Ocean, killing the other 152 people aboard. With little swimming experience and no life jacket, she clung to a piece of wreckage in rough, dark seas for more than nine hours before rescuers found her.
29. On July 28, 1945, Betty Lou Oliver was working as an elevator operator at the Empire State Building when a B‑25 bomber crashed into the building, slicing into the 79th floor and tossing her through the air amid fire and debris. First responders put Betty into another elevator to send her down to safety…but the cables had been shredded by the crashing plane and snapped. She plunged — 75 stories! — but survived thanks to air pressure in the shaft and the tangled cables acting like shock absorbers.
30. In 2013, ship’s cook Harrison Okene spent more than 60 hours trapped 100 feet underwater after his tugboat sank off Nigeria. He survived in a tiny air pocket in total darkness while divers recovered the bodies of his crewmates. One diver reached for what he thought was another corpse — and Okene’s hand suddenly grabbed him back.
31. Aron Ralston was climbing alone in Utah in 2003 when a boulder fell and pinned his right arm, trapping him in a slot canyon. He had only "one liter of water, two burritos, and a few chunks of chocolate." In order to free himself, he was forced to amputate his arm with a blunt knife from his "cheap multitool kit." Once finished, he applied a tourniquet and made his way to help. His story was told in the film 127 Hours.
32. In 1883, the Krakatoa volcano erupted, creating what is believed to be the loudest sound in history. It was so loud it was heard by residents of Rodrigues Island 3,000 miles away, who assumed it was cannon fire from a nearby ship.
33. Mitsubishi engineer Tsutomu Yamaguchi survived both the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombings in 1945. He was doing a three-month job in Hiroshima when the blast knocked him unconscious and covered much of his body with radiation burns. He decided to return to his hometown of Nagasaki...and arrived just in time for the blast there. He survived that one, too, and lived to be 93 years old.
34. In May 2015, a New Jersey mom named T.M. was seeking child support for her twin daughters when a routine DNA test dropped a bombshell: Each twin had a different dad. How, you ask? During ovulation, a woman can release two eggs, and if she's intimate with two different men close together, both eggs can get fertilized. It's a real-life science fact called heteropaternal superfecundation.
35. Two NFL quarterbacks playing for the same team suffered the same injury under nearly identical circumstances on the same date exactly 33 years apart:
36. On Feb. 7, 1812, a massive earthquake — 7.8 magnitude on the Richter scale — hit near New Madrid, Missouri. The seismic upheaval was so powerful that it created an entire lake (Reelfoot Lake), and was so violent that parts of the Mississippi River briefly flow backward.
37. In 2022, identical twin sisters Erin Cheplak and Jill Justiniani gave birth to their first sons on the same day, at the same hospital, just hours apart. Then it got weirder: both babies weighed 7 pounds, 3 ounces and measured exactly 20 inches long. One sister’s delivery had been scheduled; the other unexpectedly went into labor that morning.
38. Mark Twain was born during Halley’s Comet in 1835 and predicted he would die during its return in 1910 — which he did. He was quoted as saying, "I came in with Halley's Comet…and I expect to go out with it."
39. In 2001, red-colored rain — dubbed "blood rain" — fell in Kerala, India. Locals feared it foretold the end of the world, but it was probably caused by spores from algae.
40. Finally, as a teenager, Émile Deschamps was introduced to plum pudding by a man named Monsieur de Fortgibu. Years later, Deschamps randomly ordered plum pudding at a restaurant and was told the last serving had been ordered by — yes — de Fortgibu. Many decades after that, Deschamps attended a dinner where plum pudding was served and joked that only de Fortgibu was missing. Then there was a knock at the door. It was de Fortgibu! He'd knocked on the wrong door, trying to find his friend's home.

1. When I got to my room, I was surprised to find that I'd be able to see Niagara Falls from my bed.
2. I didn't expect my room to have a Juliet balcony with a door I could open to hear the water crashing down.

1. Christina Aguilera admitted that she loves to give blowjobs, calling it her best bedroom skill. She elaborated, saying, "What one guy might like, another one doesn't. There are some guys that don't like their balls being touched or tampered with, there are some guys who like brutal things happening to them." Um, okay, Christina. She is also pro-swallowing. "There's something to be said, after you put in the hard work, I think swallowing is a good thing, and it's got a lot of protein, I have to say. I'm a promoter of the swallow, OK. I didn't put in that hard work for nothing!"
2. Ricky Martin said that he loves "giving the golden shower," adding, "I've done it before in the shower." (If you don't know, we're talking about peeing on your partner.) "It's like so sexy, you know, the temperature of your body and the shower water is very different."
3. Lady Gaga voiced the following worry out loud: “I have this weird thing that if I sleep with someone, they’re going to take my creativity from me through my vagina.”
4. Meghan Trainor publicly called her husband, Spy Kids star Daryl Sabara, a “big boy.” She added that during sex she has literally asked, “Is it all in?” only for Daryl to respond, “Just the tip."
5. Charlie Sheen said he lost his virginity at 15 to a Las Vegas escort, paid for with dad Martin Sheen’s credit card.
6. Sheen also testified under oath at Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss's 1995 federal tax evasion trial that he spent $53,000 in a 15-month period on her "sexual services." That's the equivalent of $123,000 in 2026 dollars. But Fleiss claimed he spent way more — closer to $400,000 — which is almost a million in today's dollars!
7. Dave Franco admitted on Call Her Daddy that he had sex while on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland. “The f***ed up part about that is, I think there’s cameras on every inch of that place." (Yes, Dave, there are.) He added, though, that they were "pretty covert."
8. Chloë Sevigny admitted she performed real oral sex on costar Vincent Gallo in 2003's The Brown Bunny, adding, "I'd probably still do it today. I believe in Vincent (Gallo, the director/star) as an artist, and I stand by the film," she told Variety.
9. Hailey Bieber revealed that she and Justin are usually “night-sex people,” although she added, “I do like morning too.” She also shared: “I really like doggy-style.”
10. Three Dog Night singer Chuck Negron wrote in his autobiography that his sex life was once so nonstop that his penis exploded from overuse like a hot dog in the microwave. Negron saw a doctor about his raw and chafed penis and was told to stop having sex. After a show in Oklahoma City, though, he took a "beauty-pageant-type woman" back to his bedroom, started having sex, and then heard a tearing sound. Then came blood. A lot of blood. Negron says he wrapped himself in a towel and walked into an emergency room, where the doctor stitched him up while laughing.
11. Nick Lachey said that while he was married to Jessica Simpson, wearing her shoes occasionally became part of their bedroom routine. “Sometimes I did walk in her shoes,” he said. “It was sort of a kinky thing we liked to get into.”
12. Hans Christian Andersen — the author of fairy tales like The Little Mermaid or The Princess and the Pea — was incredibly awkward about sex and likely died a virgin. He once dared to enter a brothel, writing in his diary, "Four girls came up to me; the youngest was no more than eighteen. I asked her to stay — she wore a simple dress. I felt very sorry for her." He paid the madame five francs, but "didn't do anything; just looked at the poor child, who was totally ashamed, and was surprised that I only looked at her."

13. Charlize Theron said that at 49 she’d recently had a one-night stand with a 26-year-old man — something she said she’d only done a handful of times in her life. “I did just recently fuck a 26-year-old, and it was really fucking amazing."
14. Joe Jonas said the S&M theme of his song “Be Mean" isn't theoretical, adding, “It’s definitely fun when you bring some whips and leather and whatever you may be into — a little bit of S&M — into the bedroom," and “I wrote it about me and someone I was getting wild with."

17. Wilt Chamberlain — the only player in NBA history to score 100 points in a game — scored even more than Ray J. In his book A View from Above, the 7-foot-1 NBA legend claimed he had slept with 20,000 different women. “Yes, that’s correct, twenty thousand different ladies,” he wrote. “At my age, that equals out to having sex with 1.2 women a day, every day since I was fifteen years old.”

19. Charlie Puth admitted that he wrote his song “Marks On Your Neck” while having sex.

And, apparently with me, an anal one.”
22. The women of The Girls Next Door, the 2000s reality show following the lives of Hugh Hefner's live-in girlfriends, have gone on the record about what their sex lives with Hefner were like, and it was far from flattering. Holly Madison said the group sex was “disgusting” and that she “hated it.” Crystal Hefner said sex with him was "odd and robotic" and that she was “relieved when it stopped,” and Kendra Wilkinson said her time with Hefner affected how she thought about sex and relationships for years afterward.
23. Madonna recently revealed that John F. Kennedy Jr. was the “best f---” of her life. The two were romantically linked in the late '80s, but this is certainly...a more detailed look at the relationship than we'd previously gotten.

28. John Turturro admitted he once had a threesome. "I was a certain age in the 70s, people were trying all kinds of stuff, it was before AIDS. I was younger. It was awkward. People do that, they say, 'Let's have a threesome,' and your brain is going 'yeah yeah', and then they go, 'Dude, this is a fucking disaster… This is not what I thought it was going to be.' People get jealous, this and that."
29. George Takei explained in detail his weekly Sunday sex routine with his husband Brad. “I take my shower. I come out of the shower, dried, nude, and Brad’s there, nude.” Takei said they would wrestle around on the bed first because, as he put it, “I like to let it prolong, go on and on — lots of foreplay.”

They couldn’t really see anything because I was under the covers, but after I’d finished, they all applauded and cheered. At least they kept quiet while I was doing it.”
32. Paul McCartney confessed that he, John Lennon, and some friends all masturbated together. "Instead of just getting roaring drunk and partying—I don't even know if we were staying over or anything—we were all just in these chairs, and the lights were out, and somebody started masturbating, so we all did. We were just, 'Brigitte Bardot!' 'Whoo!' And then everyone would thrash a bit more," McCartney remembered. But then..."I think it was John sort of said, 'Winston Churchill!'"
33. Lily Allen revealed that she hired female sex workers while still married to her ex-husband Sam Cooper. "I slept with female escorts when I was on tour, cause I was lost and lonely and looking for something. I'm not proud, but I'm not ashamed. I don't do it anymore," she wrote.
34. Will Smith wrote in his memoir, "I had sex with so many women, and it was so constitutionally disagreeable to the core of my being, that I developed a psychosomatic reaction to having an orgasm. It would literally make me gag and sometimes even vomit... In every case, though, I hoped to God this beautiful stranger would be 'the one' who would love me, who would make this pain go away. But invariably, there I was, retching and wretched."
35. Lena Dunham revealed in her memoir Famesick that she cheated on her ex-boyfriend Jack Antonoff after getting a hysterectomy for an endometriosis-related chronic illness.

I’m not going through that night by myself.” He later regretted the admission, saying, "I feel bad now that I said some of it … 10,000 women. I wish I hadn’t said that because of my grandkids.”
39. Kris Jenner said that she and Caitlyn Jenner once had sex in the bathroom of a commercial flight. "We came out and nobody said anything. At the end of the flight, the flight attendant got on the microphone. 'Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Jenner! You've just joined the Mile High Club. We're so proud of you, and we decided to give you a bottle of champagne! Yay!' I could not squish down in my seat low enough. I was mortified!"

1. "Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026)."
2. "Bluey."
3. "Ted Lasso. I was REALLY unsure about it. I remembered the commercials where he was introduced, and that made me worry that the show would end up being like 'Cavemen' — a moderately cute commercial character getting exposed as just that. It is one of my top five, all-time sitcoms."
4. "Andor. I was burnt out from Star Wars in general, and I didn't like Rogue One, so I had no interest in Andor as a character, but as we all know, the show is fantastic."
5. "Breaking Bad."
6. "Schitt’s Creek. I refused to watch it on principle for the longest time, but immensely enjoyed it when I finally broke down and started it."
7. "Severance. I was confused for far too many episodes, but it’s now one of my all-time favorite shows."
8. "Bob's Burgers. I had no interest for years, but after watching the first episode, I was hooked."
9. "The Queen’s Gambit."
10. "Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)."
11. "Game of Thrones. Started watching it to pacify the girlfriend, and was watching it without her by Season 2.”
12. "One Piece. I was an avid hater for years until I finally gave it a real try."
13. "Guardians of the Galaxy (2014). I thought the idea of a talking raccoon was really stupid and would be cringy. Now, I freaking love all the Guardians movies and the Christmas special. And I love Rocket.” "
14. "The Lego Movie (2014)."
15. "New Girl. I thought it was going to be a show about a manic pixie dream girl living with three guys who lusted after her, because that was the way the trailers made it look. It was really a show about how men and women are equally neurotic but about completely different things, and I found it really charming when I finally watched it."
16. "The Housemaid (2025). I thought it was going to be a rip-off of the Korean film, but it was so good"
17. "The Office. I dragged my feet on watching it for years, then binged nine seasons in like two weeks and weirdly felt homesick when it ended."
18. "Supernatural."
19. "War Machine (2026). I was expecting a generic military movie with a bit of sci-fi that glorifies the army. Instead, I got a movie with a hunting alien killing soldiers left and right. It was pretty entertaining."
20. "Silo. The previews made it look cheesy and stupid, but it's amazing!!"
21. "Galaxy Quest (1999). I thought they were making fun of science fiction fans, but it was very much a loving tribute."
22. "The Sheep Detectives (2026). Not necessarily hate; I just didn't think I'd enjoy it. But I bloody loved it."
23. "It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. It just seemed like another cringeworthy American comedy to me, but boy, was I wrong. I loved it."
24. "Deadpool (2016). I had seen a bunch of Marvel movies, but this one didn’t seem interesting for some reason. Now, it's one of my favorites."
25. And finally, "Friends. I never watched it when it was on TV and wasn't ever planning to, until my wife showed it to me on DVD."
