What are some events in recorded history that are extremely hard to believe, but without a doubt actually happened?

Moving to: m/AskMbin!@kbin.social – 55 points – I've watched the Oversimplified Video and there was a bit about Wilmer McClean.
And the best part is, it was actually true!
Here let me copy and paste something from the internet
"The Battle of Bull Run, one of the first battles of the US Civil War, occurred on and around Wilmer McClean's farm in Northern Virginia. Not wanting to live surrounded by war, McClean and his family moved to Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia. The Battle of Appomattox Courthouse was the last significant battle between Union and Confederate forces. The Confederates signed the surrender order in Wilmer's sitting room. It is said that the Civil War started on Wilmer's farm and ended in his sitting room."

"And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful."
Ugh. You’ve activated my PTSD.
Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.
Really, there are so many moments from TFG that fit into the topic of this thread.
