I remember about 8 years ago now, we used to live in a flat above some shops with a big long balcony that took you to all the front doors to the other flats. It overlooked a small car park, I was out there having a cig probably about 4.30/5.00am as I couldn't sleep any longer.
I hear a car engine running, I walk forwards and peer over the balcony and there is a car there, drivers door open, headlights on and in front of the car was this guy full on raving, dance like no one's watching type dancing, no music at all, just the car running.
He was going for it!!
Then all of a sudden he stopped and ran back into the car, slammed the door and drove off 😆
It was so fucking weird !!

I actually remember being a little freaked out at the time thinking wtf have I just seen !! I went back inside and woke my dp up because I just had to tell someone what I'd just seen !
Still to this day I wonder what he was doing, was he on drugs and just needed to dance ?
Was it a guilty pleasure ???

Anyone else see anything crazy that has confused the life out of them ?

I drive to very quiet places and sing so maybe he drives places and dances? I should track him down and he could dance to my singing 😂

I discovered that hermit crabs were real and not just things in cartoons when I was 33, on a beach in Thailand. Mind blown! DH and I were walking and one scuttled out in front of us, followed by a whole flock more of them with their little stalky eyes and adorable running gait. They then all stopped in front of us and stared up at us, a bit like the Toy Story aliens. I don’t know if they were used to the local fishermen or whatever coming along at that time of the morning and giving them scraps and were expecting that from us, but it was so weird to go in minutes from not knowing something existed in reality to having an army of them at my feet!
