That's true.
The classic quote is: "There are more things in heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
But to answer your question more directly, it is said that souls incarnate into whatever body, location and period of time suits their evolution. So from that perspective, any setting is possible. Including stuff that would seem ridiculous to us.
*disclaimer: this does not mean any of it is really real.

These things do inspire me to work on my life purpose with the focus on the nothingness / everythingness  (transient morality). Then, I can't think of a better mission in life than to align the life purpose with world peace. Is it possible that these things trigger these kinds of experiences with a combo of meditation / contemplation / self-inquiry? Time to find out. 
 
So awesome...
