The phrase is "what in the world...?!" Which is more of a reaction to something unexpected. For example, if you were to come home to find your house a mess and a pig running around the house covered in mustard you'd likely say "what in the world...?!" And either leave it at that or follow it with "...happened here?!" Or "...is going on?!"
"Thats absurd" is more of an exclamation reaction to something you heard. For example, your father has been told that your mother is dead when he knows for a fact she is only asleep in their bedroom and cries, "that's absurd! I just gave her a sleeping pill an hour ago and she is fine."
