20+ Photos of rare things we didn’t expect to see

There are so many things humans haven’t seen in this world yet. Regardless of how much traveling you do, or how many people you know, there will always be something new to spot.

The following photos will help put that into perspective for you.

Iceberg Flipped Over

This isn’t an edited photo of an iceberg, but one that flipped over. That’s why the blue looks so exotic.

When they say “only the tip of the iceberg,” this is what they meant.

Unusual Postal Truck

Any kind of delivery truck, whether it’s for a courier or the postal service, is going to have a few unique traits as it’s a specialized vehicle.

That said, this new postal truck looks like a cartoon vehicle, as pointed out by the person who posted this on Reddit. Like, it looks like a truck, but the proportions don’t feel right.

Snail Going For A Wander

Snails are known for leaving a slimy trail behind them wherever they go, which makes it very easy to see exactly where this snail has traveled (the answer, of course, is “all over this hat”).

It’s definitely a cool sight to see for anyone who doesn’t own this specific hat. As for the hat owner, it’s probably more than a little bit gross.

Fingernails Pushing Out Chemo

This is someone’s fingernails pushing out chemo. That’s absolutely wild. Our bodies can do a lot of exciting things.

Hopefully, this helped this person recover from the terrible cancer disease.

So They Can Be Square??

The starfish on the left looks like SpongeBob, and Patrick did the fusion dance to become one.

The squareness is a result of a birth defect, which is very rare.

Whale Skeleton In Costa Rica

How on Earth did this skeleton end up in the middle of the woods like this?

A whale is enormous, so do you think another animal pulled it this far?

A Powerful Flashlight Shining Through A Hand

The person who posted this said that’s a 4,000-lumen flashlight. It’s shining right through this person’s hand.

That’s the light you see when you die. That thing shouldn’t be so powerful.

Rainbow Cloud In India

The person who spotted this admitted it’s not as beautiful as aurora, but it’s still pretty rare to see.

I’ve never seen a cloud any other color than white or grey.

The Albino Peacock

Finding an albino animal is already rare enough, but a peacock makes it even better.

These are already majestic creatures, so this all-white one is in a league of its own.

The Way This Ice Froze

Why does this water look like it froze a parasite in that bottle? This is insane.

Ice shouldn’t look like this when it’s freezing. Whoever owned this should’ve let it go.

The Glasswing Butterfly

A butterfly with transparent wings is as beautiful as it gets. Look at this marvelous insect.

I’m going to say that’s one way they stay safe against the other bugs trying to eat them.

Ants Made Flour From Almond

These ants found this lone almond, gutted it, and made flour with it. What in the world?

How did they know how to do this and why did they even do it?

Impaled Pumpkin At Cornell University

No one knew how someone managed to impale a 60 pound pumpkin on the top of the spire at Cornell University.

It’s over 170 feet off the ground and no one saw anyone get up there.

Apple With Same Color Flesh and Skin

I would think I was in another universe if I bit into this and saw the same color.

It’s for sure rare to see, but don’t get alarmed if it happens to you.

Dog Gets Dental Work

The rest of the teeth on this dog look fine, so I wonder what happened to those front teeth.

Still, I didn’t know this was possible for dogs, but it is.

Largest Claw Ever

This has to be the largest lobster claw a lobster ever had. Why is it so large?

What was this thing eating before it got captured? That looks like a meal for the whole family.

Cursed Water Leak

You would need to move if this leak was at your house. This is too insane to handle.

Imagine that bubble popping and soaking you with all that dirty water.

“30-Second Long Exposure Of Airliner Departing From Runway”

Imagine seeing this on the runway before your flight. Would you think it was fake?

The camera technique made it possible, but it’s still nice to see something like this.

A Foggy Eye?

Yes, that’s a foggy eye, but not in the literal sense. Someone’s wife showered with her contact lenses.

This is what it looked liked when she walked out of the bathroom.

Best Friends Forever?

Are turtles and frogs supposed to have similar patterns that are this unique? This is incredible.

They have to be best friends forever now, but they probably don’t even know they look the same.

Someone’s Friend Caught This In Hawaii

Did you know there were rainbow fish that looked like this? That’s a beautiful sea creature!

I wonder if it’s tasty if you tried to eat it, but he should’ve thrown this back in the water.
