At least you used the right word, Matt. The NT ALLEGES that Jesus did this,
but the NT alleges quite a few things, many of them extraordinary.  As I
have noted on this list many times, secular records have confirmed the truth
of many biblical references, such as geographical names, the names of kings
and rulers, the time of their reigns, etc., but secular records or
archaeological evidence has ever confirmed a single biblical claim of the
miraculous.  Why do you suppose that is?
