The UnBelievable

by The HISTORY Channel | Rewind Studios

Did you know that a woman once survived a 30,000-foot fall by crash-landing into a nest of angry fire ants? Or that a 13th century pope declared war on satanic cats? How about the lumberjack who survived near-decapitation by way of his own chainsaw? Each episode opens our cabinet of curiosities to uncover the strangest-but-true stories in human history. These aren’t tall tales--they actually happened! We dig into the historical record to show you how and why it happened. What follows is a barrage of strange people, odd places, and peculiar events that prove one thing beyond doubt: The world is even weirder than you think. The UnBelievable is a History Channel original podcast brought to you by Rewind Studios. New episodes every Friday. Follow wherever you get your podcasts.
