Wait, That Actually Happened? Mind-bending Historical Moments You Won’t Believe
When Locusts Darkened the Skies
It’s not a figment of imagination; swarming locusts can block out the light as they move. It occurred in 1875 and was dubbed “The Great Locust Swarm.” When the pack moved, it blocked the light and created complete darkness.
While this was exciting, the locusts caused devastation on fields from California to Minnesota. They consumed all edible stuff, not even sparing cloth and plants. Only the buildings were left unharmed. And though authorities tried, it was impossible to stop them.
