Burned bits of bread, stains on drain pipes, creases in socks: At this point folks have claimed to see Jesus' face pretty much everywhere. But these "sightings" go beyond the typical toasted bread portrait into truly odd territory.

00:00burned bits of bread, stains on drainpipes, creases in socks. At this point, folks have
00:05claimed to see Jesus' face pretty much everywhere. But these sightings go beyond the typical
00:10toasted bread portrait into truly odd territory.
00:14What if it's a miracle?
00:16No, it's not a miracle!
00:18Listen, it could be a miracle, it could be bulls—
00:22There are so many bread and or cheese options for divine sightings that they're practically
00:26their own sub-genre. The O.G. Grilled Cheesa Sandwich that kick-started the new wave of
00:31Savior visitations — which actually had the Virgin Mary on it, the seller claimed,
00:35not J.C. himself — sold on eBay for $28,000 in 2004. Also, the moldless sandwich was apparently
00:4210 years old at that point. There's an earlier bready version of Jesus seen on a tortilla
00:47back in 1977, too. The corn disk was encased in a glass and metal shrine on a cloud of
00:52cotton balls, because why not?
00:55More recently, we've got multiple Cheezus pizza sightings. In 2011, a pizza from Brisbane,
01:00Australia's Posh Pizza emerged from the oven with the bubbling face of Christ on top — though
01:05some say it looks more like a Christian veil. The pie drew $158 on eBay. Later in 2022,
01:11dad and truck driver Glenn Smith made a homemade pizza, and Jesus' face emerged in the blackened
01:16bits of cheese on its surface. Smith told The Sun,
01:19I used tomato puree, chorizo, and cheese. All the basics, really. Then I saw the face
01:24like Jesus.
01:25If Jesus' face lives in bread and cheese, it only stands to reason that it'd bleed off
01:29into the grease.
01:31Oh, it's so greasy.
01:35That's exactly what happened in January 2023, when Kim Ellis looked down at her grease-soaked
01:39pizza box and saw Jesus' floating locks.
01:43If greasy Jesus isn't your thing, then no worries. The owners of the most aptly named
01:55pen in existence, Gloria, found Christ's face in her very feathers. As a 2010 archived post
02:00on the forum In the 2000s says, police officer Mitchell Granger from the West Midlands, England,
02:06recognized the face right away in the picture of his chicken. He says,
02:09I literally said Jesus Christ when I saw the picture. The face of Jesus is clear to see,
02:14and when I showed my mom, she even pointed out the ring of thorns.
02:17To be clear, the face of Jesus wasn't a permanent pattern in Gloria's feathers. By all accounts,
02:23Granger was on his property one day and decided to take a picture of Gloria, who was in the
02:26middle of a dust bath. Upon looking at the photo and showing it to his partner, Sharon
02:31Conway, the two saw Jesus' face in the feathers. It passed around word of the sighting to friends
02:35and family, which seemingly ignited a wave of religious sentiment. Despite the apt naming,
02:40Granger named the chicken Gloria — not for any Christian reason, but because she'd survived a
02:45fox attack on her chicken coop that killed 19 other chickens. Hence the reference to the 1978
02:51Gloria Gaynor song, I Will Survive, as well as discussions of black race.
02:56In case you thought chicken feathers were the most unusual place to spot Jesus,
03:00we direct you to another heavenly body, so to speak. Spencer Matthews and his
03:04cheese grater-like abs. Matthews, a British TV actor and celebrity, decided to run 30 marathons
03:10in 30 days to challenge himself. He ended at the end of August 2024 in a desert, looking exhausted,
03:16desperately hungry, and having lost almost 21 pounds of water weight. And there, on his bare
03:21torso as he stood with one arm encircling the waist of his wife Vogue, emerged the hardened
03:25and suntanned face of the Son of God. And in case you're wondering, Jesus' mouth is the belly button.
03:31As Metro recalls, plenty of fans pointed out the sighting on Instagram, saying things like, quote,
03:36"...it looks like Jesus. I can't unsee that now."
03:39Takes a little work to see Jesus' face in Spencer's abs, sure,
03:43but it's just as possible as any of the other sightings on this list.
03:46There's no word on whether or not Spencer caught word of the sighting,
03:49although it's unlikely Jesus will stick around on his torso as he recovers from near dehydration.
03:55Parisians around the world might recall the shock and horror of hearing that Notre Dame Cathedral
03:59caught fire in 2019. The ancient, imposing, and gorgeous landmark dates all the way back to 1163
04:06CE and stood watch from the north side of the Seine River over the passing of countless kings,
04:11wars, revolutions, and more. And all it took was a flippantly discarded cigarette or a faulty wire
04:17to nearly burn the whole thing down. Restoration is on schedule, and the project received £850
04:22million in donations from French sources alone. In other words, what better location to behold
04:27a sighting of the savior of humanity? At least, that's what Scottish passerby Leslie Rowan
04:32thought. She told the Daily Record,
04:34"[When I looked at this photo last night, I was really astounded by what I saw.
04:38When I look at it, I see a silhouette of Jesus. I really see a vivid image. I feel like it will
04:42bring comfort to people in Paris and all over the world at this sad time."
04:46To be clear, we're talking a full-body apparition — stereotypical Jesus robe,
04:51sash, and all. Not everyone was convinced, however. I guess we'll have to see if Jesus
04:55drops by for the cathedral's reopening. While there are many more notable places
05:00where Jesus has apparently made an appearance, we're going to end on a sighting that,
05:05and pardon the pun, every potty can agree is pretty silly.
05:11Namely, seeing Jesus' face in the stains on a newly laid bathroom floor,
05:16or the top of his head near the base of a toilet. Freda Murphy of Birmingham,
05:20England, backed up her claims with photographic evidence of a smeared,
05:24glossy Jesus face right where folks have to step if they make a pit stop.
05:27Murphy was no stranger to unexplained phenomena, as she'd previously contacted a medium to
05:32investigate her house on claims of phantom baby cries. Keep in mind, though, she has five kids,
05:37feeling touched by unseen entities and beams of light streaming from somewhere.
05:42Then, when her family finished their new bathroom floor,
05:44she saw Jesus staring up at her from the cement. She told the Birmingham Mail,
05:48When I looked at the image, it sent a shiver down my spine.
05:51I could make out eyes, a nose, mouth, long hair, and beard.
