Not every phenomenon that has occurred on Earth can be explained and neither science, technology nor research have been able to solve some of the world’s mysteries. In a population of over 7.5 billion people, many mysteries have emerged that remain to be solved. The demand for logical explanations for these events is great, but nobody has been able to solve these mysteries. This has led mankind to rely on their instincts when speculating. But until they’re solved, here are 10 unsolved mysteries from around the world.
10 unsolved mysteries from around the world
1. The dwarf village
There are different sizes and shapes of humans, but according to Chinese records, most of their population was made up of dwarfs, but humans born on Earth were designed with individual differences. There is no logical explanation for this event, although rumor has it that around 60 years ago the village was struck by a mysterious disease that affected most children between the ages of five and seven and slowed their growth in the process.
Experts who have researched about the disease have concluded that the possibility of the outbreak of the plague disease is very rare, but in the case of Yangsi village, almost the entire town was affected. The villagers believed that they were enchanted because their gods were angered by their ancestors’ improper burial ceremony.
As interesting as the village may seem, the Chinese government has refused to make the village a tourist hub. However, investigations into the village have revealed that the most recently born children have escaped the wrath. To this day it has remained one of the unsolved mysteries of the world.
2. Sleepy Hollow

It is reported that over 200 residents fall asleep at the same time without any just cause.
