Unbelievable Stories That Are Actually True

We often think that unbelievable stories only happen in movies, but real life can be even more surprising. Some of these strange events get solved, but many stay a mystery, making them even more interesting. In this collection, we share some exciting real-life stories that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The Story:
When I was a kid, I pretended to have a stomachache so my grandma would let me stay home. I’m not a good liar, so she decided to test me. She said if I was too sick for school, she would make a doctor’s appointment. Three hours later, I was rushed to the ER for emergency surgery. My fake sickness turned out to be real—it was appendicitis, and it was so bad that if I hadn’t gone to the hospital that day, my appendix would have burst. I felt completely fine that day, so pretending to be sick actually saved my life.
