The Tunguska explosion was blamed on a meteorite or comet that, experts believe, exploded as low as 5 miles above the ground. Up until now, no one has found a crater or debris that supported this belief.

Marine geologist, Luca Gasperini, and his team may have located the crater about 5 miles north-northwest of the suspected epicenter. Lake Chesko has a strange funnel-shaped bottom that is consistent with craters. Future drilling may resolve a century-old mystery.

Lake Delton’s Wonder Spot has wowed tourists for more than half a century. Located in a wooded ravine, this spot consists of a crooked cabin where people can’t stand up straight, water runs uphill, and chairs balance themselves on two legs. This place is one of the 21 known “gravity vortexes” in the United States.

Its owner, Bill Carney, has sold this tourist attraction to the village of Lake Delton for the sum of $300,000. The village plans to bulldoze the cabin so they can build a road through the crevice.

Deep in the mountains close to the Mexican border, a mysterious place exists where time is altered at random.

A joke? Not according to Ron Quinn.

Quinn first submitted his stories to The Weekly’s former editor, Michael Parnell, in November 2002. Upon his departure in January, Parnell passed them on to current Weekly Editor Jimmy Boegle.

The Weekly staff decided to publish them; after all, they are quite compelling. Plus, Quinn’s got some credibility; a life-long treasure hunter, Ron Quinn’s stories have been appeared in Arizona Highways, Treasure Magazine and Fate.

The Weekly does not know the location of the site Mr. Quinn speaks of, nor could we verify the events mentioned. Therefore, we present his anecdotes as interesting stories–nothing more.

This “time portal” supposedly exists high on a plateau near the Mexican border. Mr. Quinn refused to tell anyone other than close friends about the exact location of this strange place because he felt that it was sacred. Reading the accounts of his visits, I almost felt like I was there. I don’t know whether I believe his story or not, but I enjoyed his writing.

The Beloye Lake in the Vachsky District of Russia’s Nizhni Noggorod region disappeared overnight last spring. Researchers speculated the lake’s disappearance to karst collapses. However, skeptics ruled this out because the collapse would have happened gradually.

Reactions varied with the villagers. One immediately blamed the US, stating that we have special technology to vacuum up water. Another villager blamed extraterrestrials.

Where did the water go?

According to researchers, this isn’t the first time Beloye Lake has vanished. In 1600, a church stood on the land, which appeared solid. Then, one day, the church was sucked underground. Two decades later, a lake suddenly appeared where the church used to be.

Senior research fellow with JSC Anti-karst and Coastal Guard Vladimir Tolmachev says that return of the lake is a natural phenomenon akin to a huge bathtub.

‘When we want to pour water out of the bath we take out a stopper and the water goes out. As for the lake, the water easily flew away as some hollow appeared in the karst layers. Now, a huge stopper is forming of sand and clay there. So, it is highly likely that the lake will come back.’

It’s all a matter of when and where.
