Miracles: When the News Feels Impossible

Ever read a headline and thought, "No way that just happened"? That’s the kind of story tagged here. We collect news moments that feel improbable — huge comebacks, sudden turnarounds, milestone achievements against the odds, and events that change a game or a life in an instant.

What qualifies as a miracle on this page

We don’t mean supernatural events. On Explore Africa Daily, a "miracle" is a real-world upset or dramatic reversal: a player fighting back after a near loss, a team clinching a title when everyone counted them out, or a public figure pulling off an unexpected political move. Think Novak Djokovic coming from behind at Wimbledon, or a bowler reaching a rare 400th wicket in a match that looked lost. Those moments make you gasp — and that’s what we collect.

These stories span sports, politics, culture and major public events. Sometimes a miracle is a tidy milestone like a 400th wicket. Other times it’s a chaotic collapse turned into triumph, like an underdog team storming into a final. We tag any story that carries that wow factor so you can find surprising, uplifting or shocking reads in one place.
