Survival

Serial killers infamously target sex workers, so the&nbsp;tale of a sex worker who stopped a serial killer provides a much needed twist to a story where the killer usually gets away with it. When Neal Falls responded to sex worker Heather Saul's escort advertisement online, she naturally assumed the standard transaction would occur. But&nbsp;the moment he arrived, Falls revealed his intentions for Saul involved assault and violence. Thankfully, after a scuffle between the two, Heather Saul managed to stop Falls, and in doing so, stopped him from hurting anyone else in the future.After the death of Neal Falls, authorities found evidence on Falls that implied he was likely involved in the death and disappearances of sex workers in many different states across the country. To this day, years after Falls's death, people are still investigating this dead man and the many crimes he probably committed.

When you think of a murderer, you&nbsp;probably envision&nbsp;a man. And indeed, women only make up a very&nbsp;small percentage of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-prolific-american-serial-killers/ranker-crime" target="_blank">convicted killers</a>. However,&nbsp;ladies are just as capable of&nbsp;complicated and controversial&nbsp;murder plots as their masculine counterparts and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/famous-female-serial-killers/reference" target="_blank">their crimes are just as grisly</a>.A common&nbsp;female murderer&nbsp;archetype is the&nbsp;Black Widow.&nbsp;Much like the spider from which she earns her name, this killer&nbsp;will murder her husband, perhaps makes some money off of his death&nbsp;through insurance or inheritance, and then&nbsp;marry again to repeat the cycle. Some members of the supposedly gentler sex will convince a new man&nbsp;to murder their husbands for them. Occasionally, the woman and her partner will participate in the homicide together.Below is a list of women who have&nbsp;used&nbsp;the power of persuasion on weak-minded men, as well as on friends and family members,&nbsp;to get&nbsp;them to commit murder.&nbsp;

A horrifying cloud&nbsp;over Brazil, observed in the city of&nbsp;Teixeira de Freitas, got&nbsp;residents and&nbsp;Internet users wondering if it foreshadowed the arrival of the apocalypse. Reportedly disappearing&nbsp;after four minutes, the cloud, known as a &quot;Hand of God&quot; cloud formation,&nbsp;appeared in multiple pictures and videos taken by witnesses, spreading its presence all over&nbsp;the world wide web.&nbsp;As it turns out, the Hand of God in the sky is a phenomenon seen all over the globe. Though it <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/diseases-science-cant-explain/laura-allan?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">can be explained</a> by science, the Hand of God&nbsp;inspires divine awe and fear into many people, who see it as a sign of the divine.No matter how rational&nbsp;humans pretend to be, the awe-inspiring spectacle of a supposedly heavenly <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/a-guide-to-cloud-types/analise.dubner" target="_blank">cloud formation</a>&nbsp;reaching toward the Earth&nbsp;reverberates deeply on a spiritual level. The fact it appears all across the world suggests it truly occurs as a natural weather pattern. Or maybe it desires to tell humans something. So what was the Hand of God cloud, and will it return again?

In the spring and summer of 1995, 150 animals wound up dead in Puerto Rico. The species varied, but their apparent manner of death did not: they all had mysterious puncture wounds and had been drained of blood. The killings were attributed to a cryptid&nbsp;known as &quot;el chupacabra,&quot; from the Spanish word&nbsp;chupar,&nbsp;meaning &quot;to suck,&quot;&nbsp;and&nbsp;cabra,&nbsp;meaning &quot;goat.&quot; Witnesses claiming to have seen this goat-sucker&nbsp;described an animal&nbsp;with a &quot;reptilian body, oval head, bulging red eyes, fanged teeth, and long, darting tongue.&quot;

Sightings have been on the rise since those first attacks, and supposed&nbsp;pictures of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/chupacabra-backstories/scottmarcano" target="_blank">el chupacabra</a> have cryptozoologists&nbsp;convinced the creature is real. Sometimes these beasts resemble&nbsp;bipedal reptiles; other times they look more like&nbsp;hairless canines. But whatever shape their body takes, their bites always take the form of one to three holes in the shape of a triangle.

Take a close look at these&nbsp;photos of el <a href="https://science.howstuffworks.com/science-vs-myth/strange-creatures/chupacabra.htm" target="_blank">chupacabra</a> and decide for yourself:&nbsp;could&nbsp;these pictures be&nbsp;evidence of a supernatural creature, or are they merely clever fakes?

True Crime

Barrels are&nbsp;a common method of disposing of human remains by murderers.&nbsp;In particular, dead women are found in barrels with unnerving frequency. Some killers get away with their murders with proper sealing and storage, but most end up getting caught when the bodies start decomposing. It's only a matter of time before the barrels are discovered and the wealth of physical evidence contained inside have led to the capture of many of the killers. Regardless, there are plenty of killers who have been connected to <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/snowtown-murders-facts/laura-allan?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">bodies in barrels</a>.&nbsp;Let's take a look at some of the most disturbing cases of uncovered women's remains in barrels.

Jeffrey Dahmer

Before the police found him, Jeffrey Dahmer appeared to be an ordinary man in his 30s who kept to himself. That image was shattered on July 22, 1991, when the victim he lured to his home&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/story-of-boy-police-gave-back-to-jeffrey-dahmer/amandatullos?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">escaped and sought help</a> from police. To the shock of the Milwaukee community and local law enforcement, they had unexpectedly stumbled upon a killer who had kept himself under the radar with <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="http://www.ranker.com/list/serial-killers-who-had-normal-jobs/ranker-crime">a normal job</a>.&nbsp;Inside Dahmer's&nbsp;apartment, the police discovered a box of Polaroids containing depictions of the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="http://www.ranker.com/list/twisted-jeffrey-dahmer-crimes/amandasedlakhevener">infamous crimes&nbsp;Dahmer</a>&nbsp;committed. In his fridge, they&nbsp;found a severed human head. Police arrested Dahmer on the spot and&nbsp;began searching his apartment. Forensic scientists and detectives uncovered ghastly evidence, like a&nbsp;drum that housed decomposing remains. Dahmer went on to&nbsp;confess to 17 murders. The remains of some of his victims, like his first, were never found - the only evidence of what happened to them are the photos Dahmer took as trophies and&nbsp;his 60-hour confession. Dahmer's story has become fodder for several Hollywood movies and tv shows and more than a few <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-jeffrey-dahmer-actors-tv-movies/alex-alvarez">actors have played Jeffrey Dahmer</a>.The Polaroid pictures and the crime scene photos that came out of apartment 213 at 924 North 25th Street in Milwaukee, WI, relay a grim scene of events that shook Wisconsin and placed Dahmer&nbsp;on the list of notorious <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-prolific-american-serial-killers/ranker-crime">American serial killers</a>.&nbsp;

The hype only keeps building, and both fighters continue to&nbsp;trade&nbsp;verbal blows on social media, the press, and culminated in a four-city press tour that ended in a roasting. While Mayweather&nbsp;remains the favorite, the best Floyd Mayweather&nbsp;burns by Conor&nbsp;McGregor landed the Irishman a victory in the trash-talk arena.Analysts speculate that the payday for both fighters will surpass the $100 million mark. The fight will be fought in a boxing ring under boxing rules, and with 10 oz. gloves.

Not only that, he also secures his legacy, for better or worse, as one of the most outspoken trash-talkers the sports world has ever known.
