40 Images Of Truly Special Things That Arose Out Of Nowhere

Monica May 19, 2023

When something truly special happens, especially when it arises out of nowhere, people want to capture the moment. Moments like that are rare, which makes them even that much more special. These internet users shared images of random, special things, like intricate snowflakes, tiny bird feathers, carrot hands, and cars buried under rivers.

It’s similar to finding secrets inside things we use every day. When you look hard enough, you’ll usually find something quite fascinating. Some of these things on this list are quite funny, others quite special, and others are just so random, you might just do a double-take.

40. Anthropomorphic Icicle

“An anthropomorphic icicle hanging from my eave this morning.” – via Fritzout

We’ve all seen the standard icicle shape that’s sharp and pointy. This one decided to take on a womanly human form. Those few frozen droplets worked together to accidentally create this piece of art. Imagine if this happened often? We’d have our very own winter museum outside of our houses.

“My friend’s outfit exactly matched my coffee cup today.” – via Brentusfirmus

It’s not often you find yourself matching another person. But what happens when you match your coffee cup? Surely, that means it’s going to be a good day. This woman matched her coffee cup to a T. It’s worthy of a photo, and they even make a cute “cup-le.” This is a truly special memory.

Reddit

38. Round Mold

We don’t usually see mold in the shape of a perfect circle. This round mold is picture-worthy, considering it looks painted onto the bread. Maybe this Reddit user even decided to keep the rounded, moldy bread as decoration, as a truly special finding.

34. Tangled Roots

“The way this oak tree grew tangled up around this palm tree.” – via derf_vader

Reddit
