What's oddest about Uranus is that it lies and spins on its side, with its North Pole pointing about 8 degrees below its plane of orbit and its South Pole slightly above that plane. Astronomers believe some massive collision with another object knocked Uranus askew.
Askew? Seems more like bent over.
