Villagers near Gurugram mistake toilet waste from plane for 'rare mineral'

Strange objects falling from the sky may not be a completely unknown phenomenon, but it can sometimes end in bizarre revelations. While something crashing down from the sky can be a meteorite or something rare, there is a possibility of it turning out to be something unexpected.

Villagers in Gurugram suspected that they had come across a rare mineral when they found a piece of rock dropping from the sky in the fields. Suspecting the blue rock to be a meteor, villagers stored it in the refrigerator and called the Meteorological Department as well as National Disaster Management Authority.

But contrary to their expectations, it was revealed that this material was actually something called ‘blue ice’. The term is actually used for frozen toilet waste leaking from planes.

The villagers were disappointed and are now busy cleaning their houses following the discovery.

There have been several incidents of toilet waste leaking from aircrafts and falling on people as well as houses in different parts of the country in the past few years.
