While the rest of the world believes India is a magical place full of mystery and adventure, it does feel like we Indians have forgotten just how strange and wonderful our own country is. There's reports of unexplained sonic booms, enticing fairy lights and a whole lot of alien influence, all based in India. Here's something that might jog your memory and remind you that there is a little magic out there.

9. Twin village in Kodinhi

While four out of every 1000 births in India are twins, the village of Kodinhi in Kerala lays claim to 45 births out of every 1000. With a total population of 2000 families out which 400 are twins, this strange occurence has baffled investigators and scientists alike. Equal parts fun and creepy.

10. Skyquakes

Sonic booms were being experienced even before humans beat the speed of sound. Allegedly, people have heard loud sonic booms, also known as skyquakes since the 1800s in places like Jodhpur and around the Ganga river. This unexplained event is said to sound like a loud cannon and has been attributed to secret military drills as well as the collapse of underwater caves.
