Believe it or not: freaking dragons 🐉
Surely you’re joking, dragons are just myths and movies. There’s no way people could ever claim to actually see them. But nope, even modern day people see something that they called a “dragon”.
The Bedford Times-Independent, Bedford, Iowa, August 11, 1887 reported that a man named Lee Corder encountered a flying serpent "...writhing and twisting, with protruding eyes and forked tongue. Great scales, which glistened in the sunlight, covered its huge body, which appeared to be flat and nearly a foot in width." The beast seemed to fly and land with a thud in Mr. Corder's cornfield. He watched with awe and astonishment as eventually the dragon returned to the sky.
In October 1890 Independence, Iowa was home to several reports of a monster with "wings, a monstrous head with horns, a mouth like an alligator's." The creature also appeared green in color and covered in scales.
One witness named simply Megan claimed that in 2005 she and her husband witnessed a flying dragon while driving on the streets of Burlington in the middle of the night. Describing a 10 foot long snake like creature with bat-like wings and the head similar to a seahorse.
Only 15 years ago a witness and his friend reported seeing an odd flying serpent in the air seeming to shoot small blasts of fire with smaller bat sized flying creatures around it. The creature was so close they could see the creatures scales reflected off a nearby streetlight. Later their mom came to pick them up and saw the creatures too before they flew off.
Now I know there’s no evidence and a mountain of evidence against them existing but it’s still fun to think about. I personally hope Reign of Fire happens and we all get burned to a crisp.
