On August 7, 1994, a bizarre gelatinous substance fell on the town of Oakville, Washington. Over the next three weeks, the gooey rain would fall six times, usually during the middle of the night. During the same time, Oakville residents began complaining of a mysterious illness similar to flu, with blurred vision and shortness of breath mixed in.

A sample of the substance was taken in for testing, and was found to have a high amount of human white blood cells. Further tests found that it contained two types of bacteria, one of which is found in the human digestive system. This led some to believe that it was human waste from an airplane, but the Federal Aviation Administration disproved this. Generally, evidence from the sample supported that the rain blobs were "alive."

But nobody knows what the hell the blobs were. Ridiculous theories of ocean bombings causing jellyfish particles to fly 50 miles onto the city have been made, and many believe it was biological weapons testing by the military. The only fact, though, is that no samples of the substance exist today.
