In a way, we are all time travelers. We just do it very slowly. To travel 10 years in the future it takes me about...
10 Years.
I don't know, but there are cases out there which people hold up as
proof of time travel being possible. Some of them are photos, some of them are even
videos, some of them come from the supposed time traveler them self. Let's see what you guys make of all of it.
My name is Danny Burke. This is the "Top 10 Scary Time Travel Stories" Coming to number 10 now
we have Hakan Nordkvist. In 2006 this Swedish man claimed he had been to the year 2046.
How did he get there? Through his kitchen sink.
He was trying to fix a problem under his sink,
but when he went into the cabinet he noticed that it just didn't end. It kept on going and going and going
Eventually he reached the end of the tunnel and there he was in the year 2042
and he met his older self this might be easy to dismiss but for one thing - he brought his phone with him
And he filmed it. What you're seeing now is the footage of him meeting his older self in the year
2042 - they even show each other their identical tattoos. I don't know about this one
Maybe we'll have to wait until 2042 to see if he really was telling the truth.
Alright at Number 9 we have The Chaplin Time Traveler,
in 2010 a clip was uploaded to YouTube from the extras DVD of Charlie Chaplin's film "The Circus" it shows people
attending the premiere of the movie and then there is this woman. Now people claim she is talking into a phone.
Problem is, this was 1928 about 45 years before the first cell phone was ever even conceived of.
Believers say that there would be no reason to hold something to your face in 1928 and talk into it
So what was she doing? Was it a cell phone? Is she a time traveler?
Or is there some simple explanation for it? At Number 8 now -
we have the Hamburg Bombing. In 1932 two German news reporters visited the Hamburg
Shipyards to work on a story. J. Bernard Hutton and Joachim Brandt finished their interviews and as they left they heard
aircraft above them. The sky was filled with warplanes.
They heard the City's anti-aircraft guns firing as bombs
exploded around them. The Shipyard was being bombed, huge fires started, warehouses collapsed.
The two men ran to see if they could go and help someone but were told by a
security guard to just leave. As they drove away,
the sky suddenly started to clear. The streets were busy again with people, the building's were totally intact.
They looked back and everything was fine.
They told their editors this who dismissed it completely, so the men just kind of forgot about it. Eleven years later in 1943
at the height of World War II, the Hamburg Shipyards
were bombed by Britain. Bernard Hudson saw the newspaper pictures and felt a shiver along his spine. The scenes of devastation
were exactly what he had seen in person eleven years before. At Number 7 now - We have Time Travelling Hipster
This is a picture from 1941 of the reopening of a bridge in British Columbia, Canada. People's eyes were
immediately drawn to this man. His clothes don't seem to fit in, he looks more like a modern day hipster than someone from 1941.
People said his camera was just too compact for that era. For them this
was a sure sign of a time traveler, wearing and using things that just didn't exist back then. The photo
has been deemed as authentic, it's not a fake.
Critics of this theory though say that the clothes and the camera were available at that time though
not widely common. Alright, at Number 6 now - We have
Andrew Carlssin. In 2003 this man was arrested for playing the stock market too well. Over a two-week period
he went from having $800 to $350,000,000 (three hundred and fifty million).
He was arrested on the allegation that he had insider information. Under questioning he confessed he was actually from the year 2256.
That's how he knew which stocks were going to perform best. He promised to tell them the whereabouts of Osama Bin Laden or the
cure to AIDS if they let him go. He supposedly predicted the exact date of the Iraq War
starting as proof. The police essentially dismissed him as crazy and found no
evidence that he had committed fraud so they let him go. As the world media
swarmed to interview him, he was gone and has never been heard of since. Coming out at Number 5 now - We have Sir Viktor Goddard.
He was a famous British Air Marshal
most famous for his squad picture that contained the supposed ghost of a former member. He also claimed to have traveled in time.
In 1935, he was ordered to fly from Scotland to England when he passed over the abandoned
Drem Airfield. At that time it was out of use, plants had grown everywhere, there were even cows grazing on the runway.
Suddenly he ran into a strange storm, the clouds were yellow and Goddard became disorientated. He was just lost in the clouds and falling. Then the yellow clouds broke and he
could see the airfield again. The storm vanished, everything was clear. The airfield had changed, there were now mechanics
there, working on brand new planes. Three of them he recognized,
but the fourth was a monoplane that didn't even exist in 1935.
The planes were all yellow and mechanics were wearing blue overalls. He had never seen anything like it. Eventually though,
after many, many years the planes and the new uniforms did come to pass.
Drem Airfield even came back into use, just like Goddard said. Was this all a lucky guess or a genuine time slip?
At Number 4 now - We have John Titor. In 2000, a person calling himself John Titor
announced on an online forum that he was an American soldier from the year
2036. Now he said the government sent him back to
1976 to get an IBM computer
which they needed to debug computers in the future.
He stopped off in 2000 for personal reasons and decided to let people in on the secrets of the future. He got certain things
right North Korea developing Missiles
Ibm computers having secret functions he also left detailed schematics and explanations of his actual time machine
But he did get some things wrong
he said there would be another American Civil war in 2008 and world war three would have happened by
2015 but he also said that time lines could be changed does that explain it by the way the mysterious john t?
Thought disappeared altogether from the internet in
2003 ok another three now
We have the Mike tyson fight in 1995 Mike Tyson boxed Peter McNeeley in Nevada in
2015 YouTube started buzzing with people saying that in the background of one of the clips of this fight there was a time traveler
They said this woman here was carrying. What is clearly a smartphone and taking pictures years before that was even possible?
They said that no photo like that existed in
1995 and that it even flashed red like a smartphone other people countered
Showing examples of cameras that did exist back then it kind of looks similar
What do you guys think though is it too close to call or is it proof of a time-traveling?
Boxing fan going back to watch their favorite match okay at number two now
We have the astronaut the categorising over in Spain started being built in
1513 it's a Grand old Cathedral with a lot of nice stonework you'd expect from the Middle ages
Except for one bit of it there along one of the entrances is a carving of an astronaut
What is an astronaut doing on a 16th century church well?
this is where the explanation is divided the church itself and many other people there say that the astronaut was added as part of a
1992
restoration project that makes sense
But others say that doesn't add up they say that the astronaut was carved a lot earlier than that and that the restoration work was
Actually to just repair the damaged astronaut. They say it was proof of a time-traveling
Astronaut who left a little mark on the era. He visited and finally now at number one. We have Gertrude Jones
This is her in 1938 living the Factory where she worked
Some people on YouTube were freaking out saying that she was talking into a phone decades before that was even possible
they said even the way she
Holds it is
reminiscent of someone holding a smartphone with your thumb over the screen however in 2013 a woman came forward in the comment section of the
video to say that she was the
great-granddaughter of
Gertrude who was actually part of a science experiment to test an early wireless phone some people say that's it case closed
No more explanation is needed
But others say there are no records of these
experiments that happened about
40 Years before the first cell phone
Prototypes were even being made was gertrude a time traveler was she also the person who commented on the Youtube video in an attempt
To cover her tracks. What do you guys think of this one well guys?
It's the end of the video and I have a confession to make I am a time traveler as you can see in this picture
Here this was made sometime in the 1800s, please don't tell anyone my secret is safe with all of you
I hope my name is Fanny burke. Thanks for watching guys
I hope to see you soon, and I hope you're having a lovely day wherever you are
