In March of this year, an unidentified person in New Jersey's Old Bridge township dumped hundreds of pounds of pasta in the woods.

So far, no one has been able to figure out who the culprit was, but sadly, there was no sauce to go with it.

In Ecuador, grieving relatives at the wake being held for a 76-year-old woman were surprised to hear knocking from an unexpected visitor, the deceased woman herself.

It seems that she woke up inside her coffin, after which her relatives quickly rushed her back to the hospital.

And earlier this spring, hundreds of people gathered at Cooper's Hill near London, England, to watch a bunch of runners take their mark.

Their goal?

To run faster than a rolling wheel of double Gloucester cheese as it made its way to the bottom of the hill 600 feet below.

And the prize?

The winner got to take that seven-pound wheel of cheese home with them.
