In India sometimes it rains heavily, this can lead to strange things happening. These spiders wanted to do anything to get out of the rain so they fled their sanctuary when the water started coming in. It looks like a horror movie.
People also call these wonders "sailing stones". They are not a part of any specific area and are found around the world. Death Valley does have the biggest concentration of them though. Nobody knows exactly what these stones move but they can travel up to 300 ft per day. These giant tones can be as heavy as 700 pounds.
