Like, for example, this\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/my.entertainment.yahoo.com\/news\/is-it-a-bird--is-it-a-plane--nope--it-s-a-dragon-caught-on-tape-033157903.html\" target=\"_blank\" data-rapid_p=\"1\">dragon was spotted flying<\/a>\u00a0over England.

The two-minute long clip shows a giant, slug-like creature with a mean-looking head being hoisted onto a trailer as a huge throng of curious onlookers, well, looked on.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the main question here is: what exactly is this thing? Is it an overgrown worm? Is it a thousand year old underground monster? Or -gasp! &#8211; a science experiment gone wrong? Officials have released a statement saying that it&#8217;s a carcass of a whale, but we find it weird because as far as we know, whales prefer to hang out in the ocean, not on dry land.<\/p>\n<p>What do you guys think?
