Marathons today follow a simple formula. There's a starting line and a finish line, a crowd of excited and apprehensive racers, and a clear course to follow. But the 1904 Olympic Marathon took some unexpected turns, in more ways than one. From the moment the starting gun went off a few minutes after three pm on August 30, the race got even wilder. Preceded by horses meant to clear the road, and followed by cars to monitor the race, the runners were instantly choked by swirling, dry dust. This, the

On May 10, 1940, the Nazis invaded the Netherlands. And life for Corrie ten Boom, a 48-year-old watchmaker in the Dutch city of Haarlem, would never be the same. With the help of the Dutch resistance, Corrie and her family constructed a tiny, secret room in Corrie's bedroom, a room they used to offer shelter to neighbors, customers, and anyone else who asked, eventually saving some 800 people from the Nazis. Not only did the ten Boom family offer a "hiding place" and hope of escape, but they also

The Titanic was infamously touted as the “unsinkable” ship, a title that unfortunately came to be bitterly ironic. But in the wake of its sinking, that title came to be associated not with the ship itself, but with one of its most famous passengers: The Unsinkable Molly Brown. And Molly Brown was just one of the passengers on the Titanic who proved, in the face of unimaginable dread, to be a hero – a designation she shares with people like second officer Charles Lightoller, first-class passenger

In the early morning hours of April 15, 1912, as word began to spread that something had happened to the Titanic during its maiden voyage, the White Star Line released a reassuring statement. "While we are not in direct communication with the Titanic," the company's New York-based vice president P.A.S. Franklin told the press, "we are perfectly satisfied that the ship is unsinkable." By that point, the ship was already at the bottom of the sea. https://allthatsinteresting.com/rms-titanic credits:

Along the border of Northern Mexico and Texas’ Rio Grande Valley, there are whispers of a creature known as La Lechuza, a seven-foot owl with a woman’s face whose cries can be heard at night, enticing victims to wander into her clutches. In some tellings, the Lechuza was once a human woman, but an act of cruelty committed against her or her child turned her into a vengeful monster. In others, the Lechuza is a witch’s familiar, serving her mistress’ will by abducting children, or perhaps she is a
