Q. The list starts with Charles Lindbergh in 1927, the American aviation marvel credited with the first non-stop flight from New York City, USA to Paris, France. The lastest entrant to the list being Barack Obama in 2012 joins the elite club of being affiliated to the list twice alongside greats like George W Bush, Ronald Reagan, Lyndon B Johnson, Harry S Truman, General George Marshall, Dwight D Eisenhower, Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, Mikhail Gorbachev, Bill Clinton, Deng Xiaoping and Franklin D Roosevelt (not twice but a whopping 3 times). The list also has its surprise features like Adolf Hitler and Richard Nixon (who also won it twice) and sometimes non-human entrants like the computer and our planet Earth. But the twist is if I say even you have featured in this list, what am I talking about?



Enough clues to set you through.

Q. In May 2012, this Harley-Davidson motorcycle washed up onshore the Pacific coast of British Columbia, Canada. With the assistance of media interventions about this unusual find, the owner of the bike was traced from a rather far off place.

Other debris, such as footballs, bottles and even huge decks(as seen in the 2nd picture) have shown up on the western coast of North America, and are reported to be from the same place. A large wave of stuff is expected to show up in 2013 and 2014.

So, what is the reason behind such a bizarre phenomenon or what is common to where all this stuff is coming from?
