These pictures were taken by ordinary people with conventional photographic equipment and certainly weren’t edited. Yet this fact gives us even more questions.

Axar.az collected 5 real pictures which are more like fantastic film shots.

1. Hessdalen Valley Lights

This shot was taken by a Norwegian photographer with a 30-second exposure, and it isn’t the only evidence of the existence of strange luminous objects flying over the Hessdalen valley. Spectral analysis shows that this object consists of silicon, iron, and scandium. Scientists still don’t know what it is.

2. The Falling Man

This shot was taken by photographer Richard Drew on the day of the terrorist attack on September 11. The photo traveled around the world in a matter of hours. Many people noted the man’s strange body position: he falls almost straightened up, which is extremely difficult to do. The identity of the man in the photo was never established, although many Americans claimed they recognized their relative in this picture.

3. Astronaut from Solway Firth

In 1964, Jim Templeton took a photo of his 5-year-old daughter in the country. And though the Templetons claim there wasn’t a soul around except them, during the development a distinct figure appeared in the photo behind the girl’s head. The subsequent analysis showed the photo wasn’t subjected to any changes.

4. Sir Goddard’s squadron

The photo album of Sir Goddard’s squadron who fought in the First World War contains one strange photograph. After the development of the photo, all the squad members recognized a person standing in the back row as their friend, Freddie Jackson, who died two days before the picture was taken. The squadron was photographed on the day of Freddie’s funeral.

5. Babushka Lady

On November 22, 1963, in Dallas, the American President John Kennedy was shot dead. That day, photographers took a lot of pictures at the crime scene, some of them showing a mysterious woman holding a camera in one hand. Special services were trying to find her for a long time since she may have captured the president’s assassination on camera. However, all attempts to establish her identity turned out to be a failure. The unknown woman was nicknamed Babushka Lady since she wore a headscarf just like old Russian ladies.
