LOCATION:
Cavendish, VT USA
WHAT HAPPENED:
Phineas P. Gage was packing explosives prior to their detonation using a
three foot seven inch iron tamping rod.
For some unexplained reason, the explosives detonated prematurely and pushed the iron rod up through Gage's cheek a little above the jaw and out his brain. He lived for many years afterward only losing sight in his left eye, although friends and relatives reported that he had turned into a lying bully.

WHAT HAPPENED:
Mr. and Mrs. George Snitowski and their young daughter were in their
automobile driving around when it stopped running dead cold.
Mr. Snitowski got out of the car and started walking towards a bright light he spotted deeper in the woods. On his way to the light he felt a peculiar sensation all over his body, a peculiar prickly feeling. He soon stopped and turned back.
On his way back, he lost his balance and fell many times. When he arrived back to the car his wife was pointing at a ten foot giant that was standing about thirty feet away. The family locked themselves in the car until the giant and the light in the woods flew away with a pendulum swaying motion.
