Frogs rain down on Serbia
Traffic came to a halt and locals fled inside after thousands of frogs fell from the sky onto a Serbian village.

Residents in Odzaci told local daily Blic they thought the world was coming to an end.

Aleksandar Ciric said: "I saw all these small frogs just start raining down. There were thousands of them."

Another villager, Caja Jovanovic, added: "This huge 'cloud' seemed to come out of nowhere and its shape and colour looked very strange.

4. Yep, it happens. A waterspout can suck them from a lake.
Happened to my Dad in Iowa during a severe storm.

6. you mean he was sucked into a waterspout or he was
pelted by frogs? I'm not trying to be a smartass either. I had a biology teacher in high school who claimed to have seen two men on a lake sucked into a water spout and dropped unharmed elsewhere, but I never believed him.
