The earthquakes have caused untold amounts of damage, but on Saturday, residents of the city of Fukuoka discovered an especially strange result: a mysterious foam blanketing the streets. Twitter users began posting photos of the unexplained foam shortly after the tremors receded. Some have speculated that an underground pipe had burst, although the origin is still unclear. What exactly the bubbles are made of is still a mystery. One Twitter user called it “disgusting.” h/t fox4kc
A Fukuoka city spokesperson told reporters that they did not know anything about the bubbles origin.
