Events

In 1893, Jean Mayeur, a French politician who successfully found a way to be elected to the Chamber of Deputies under a variety of different governmental structures, failed to attend the Chamber for the first time in 26 years. Because the anarchist Vaillant exploded a bomb in the Chamber on that day, Mayeur avoided death — leaving Chris Cwej to wonder if somehow Mayeur either possessed psychic powers — or took advantage of someone else who did. (PROSE: The Death of Art)

In 1926, Agatha Christie's car was found at the side of a lake. (TV: The Unicorn and the Wasp)

In 1965, the Kecksburg UFO incident took place in the USA. Multiple witnesses reported seeing a mysterious fireball in the sky above Michigan and Pennsylvania, while others heard something crash in the woods near Pittsburgh. (PROSE: Time Traveller's Diary)

In 2006, aboard the SS Elysium, Ruby Duvall discovered that fellow passenger Barbara was actually 61 years old, not 40 as she looked. They also discussed how they no longer had to be careful with water like at home, as they were literally floating in it. (PROSE: Iceberg)
