Oakville clots (Oakville Blobs) — the General name for the strange jelly-like substance that fell from the sky during the rain in the us city of Oakville, Washington, 7 August 1994.

The substance fell in the form of numerous gelatinous lumps of small size. After just a couple of days in the city broke out unprecedented for these places the epidemic disease, like flu. Ill almost all the residents and of course, that soon the disease was associated with prolapsed clots. And when one of the residents got a sample of the separated clot and sent it to a laboratory for analysis, there found in the leukocytes — white blood cells, and the human.

The city was ill for three months, and then precipitated substance was finally interested in the State Department of health Washington state who took to themselves the samples of the substance for further analysis. As reported, these experts later found in clusters two types of bacteria, one of which is found only in the human digestive system. They also stated that human white blood cells in the clots were deprived of their nuclei.

Basically it is all official information about Oakville clusters, which became known to the public. All the rest is a variety of hypotheses and conspiracy theories on bacteriological weapons and the classification of Washington further research results of the clots.

Now about this phenomenon can be found just a few small notes from American Newspapers 1994 and all. No pictures of the clots themselves are not. In the web you can find some details about the rain on 7 August, but whether they are true is hard to say.

It is reported that the rain mainly fell in the area of the farm Sonny Barcliff and the first who felt the sickness as the flu, turned out to be the inhabitants of this farm. The court itself was Sunny Barcliff, and the second is her friend, they begin to have severe dizziness with nausea and bouts of fatigue. Then Sonny found an inner ear infection. The first patients were examined by Dr. David little and he first spoke about a possible connection strange clots and diseases of women. But then he said that it could be just a coincidence.

Then someone found out that after dropping clots killed the cat, Sonny. She first started to have problems with the intestines, and then she died. Also someone said that the clots fell out on the farm not once, but twice in a few days.

A mysterious case to Oakville in subsequent years was repeatedly investigated by various researchers of anomalous phenomena, finding all new and new interesting details of the incident. In particular, they found that besides the usual symptoms like the flu, the ill residents had problems with breathing and blurred vision. It also turned out that in addition to cats, Sunny Barcliff in the city for three months after the rain died many other cats and dogs.

Some people believe that a distant from the centre of the town Oakville just became a place for experiments new military biological weapons or to test possible biological attack. The US air force confirmed that they have made of the doctrine with the bombing in the Pacific in August 1994, in the area 50 miles from Oakville, but they denied their involvement in the mysterious substance.

Residents Oakville, however, skeptical, as many of them told me that the day before the rain they saw in the sky military aircraft. According to the expert Mike Osweiler, these clots could be just the contents of the toilet out of the plane, however this version was denied by the experts FAA (Federal aviation administration), which stated that all commercial aircraft are painted toilet fluid blue. Oakville clots were colorless.

According to the most popular version of the fallen with the rain the clots were the jellyfish, which disturbed the bombs of the air force in the Pacific. The remains of the jellyfish looked like it was picked up by strong winds and fell with rain in the area Oakville.

In a similar way described usually and the causes of hair loss the so called "star jelly" or "star rot" is a soft mucous substance, which from time to time find in the grass after rainfall. It is often called "angel hair" and is associated with UFOs and dimitras (himtreylov).
