15 Incredible Human Deeds
Life is an unpredictable thing, which often spurs people into completely thoughtless actions. There are quite a lot of such deeds in the history of humankind: someone was hit upon a certain idea by alcohol, someone was incredibly courageous and brave, and some deeds are even hard to evaluate. WeLoveUA decided to tell you about 15 incredible situations that could be truly considered the strangest ones in the world.
Shark Murder
Vance Flozenze was vacationing at the beach in Florida with his nephew. When an 8-year-old boy went swimming, he was attacked by a bullhead shark, which bit off the boy’s hand. Vance saw it and went mad: he rushed into the water and threw the shark to the shore. Then he beat it to death and took the nephew’s hand out from the jaws of a predatory fish. Due of this, doctors were able to sew the boy’s hand back.

Lightning Does Not Strike Twice In One Place; It Does Three Times

After Hugh regained consciousness, he had neither food nor weapons, and the nearest town was 300 kilometers away. That is the distance the wounded American managed to overcome during the 6 weeks, mainly crawling.
The Mission To Kill A Killer
