20 Times Mind-Boggling Coincidences Made Us Wonder If There Was a Glitch in the Matrix

There are many cases of bizarre coincidences in history. For example, a novel called The Wreck of the Titan: Or Futility, by Morgan Robertson, tells the story about a ship called Titan that sank after colliding with an iceberg with many people onboard. It seems like the book is based on the tragic story of the Titanic, but it was published in 1898, 14 years before the disaster happened. However, scientists say there’s nothing mystical about that: we’re surrounded by coincidences all the time, we just don’t notice them.

That’s why we at Now I’ve Seen Everything gathered 20 other cases that will make you exclaim, “What are the chances?”
