Small correction about 1:06. The phrase time travel (タイムトラベル) and time leap (タイムリープ) are two distinct concepts in Japanese. It's not the case the time travel is generally called time leap in Japanese. Saying time travel (タイムトラベル) is actually more common in my experience. Time travel (タイムトラベル) refers to the act of stepping into a time machine and sending your whole body back into the past. So if you travel back in time two weeks, two versions of yourself would exist in the world. Time leap (タイムリープ) refers to the act of sending your consciousness back to your own body in the past. So if you time leap two weeks back in time, then there would still only be one version of yourself. You basically implement your current memories into your past self. This distinction doesn't really exist in English, but it's quite old in Japanese time travel fiction. I've read the original Steins Gate visual novel in Japanese and there are multiple methods of time traveling in the story, each of them clearly distinguished, including time leaping and time traveling. This makes sense, considering that the 2chan poster mentioned that they only transfered their consciousness into the past and didn't actually travel into the past physically, thus using the term time leap (タイムリープ). Compare this to the @chan (Stein's Gate version of 2chan) poster "John Titor" in the visual novel. They said that they came from the future, traveling in a physical machine (a car) specifically calling it time travel (タイムトラベル).
yeah true, I regretted my wording almost immediately after upload. I’ve also played the steins:gate VN in Japanese. you’re right. it’s a bit of a complicated distinction to keep people interested in a long explanation of, but I shouldn’t have said “generally”.
These are what I believe to be the correct definitions: タイムトラベル (time travel): to transfer your entire self into another period of time, which if within your lifespan creates the possibility of two of you existing at the same time; in Japanese, the use of this term often implies having a specific goal タイムリープ (time leap): to consciously roll forward/backward time instead of transferring bodies across time; this is probably the best explanation of events that don't end with two of the same self existing at the same time, and usually, nobody except the time leaper him-/herself has memories of the old timeline タイムスリップ (time slip): you are sent to another timeline WITHOUT your will or permission, given by "slip" referring to effectively tripping or falling; it seems it may either be a physical or conscious travel, and there are works of fiction where someone time slips into a distant past or future (where another yourself doesn't normally exist) In other words, time traveling is a technology. Time leaping is an ability. Time slipping is a phenomenon.
There are definitions for all of these terms if you search for "時間移動" in the Japanese monolingual dictionary "ニコニコ大百科". Here are rough translations: タイムトラベル（time travel）- As it creates a mental image of "travelling", it refers to the act of intentionally traveling through time. タイムスリップ（time slip）- As it creates a mental image of "slipping", it refers to the act of unintentionally traveling through time. タイムリープ（time leap）- The act of transferring your consciousness to yourself at another point in time. There are also the following terms for time traveling in Japanese: 時間移動 (jikan idou) - An umbrella term for all time traveling terms. Literally translates to "Time Movement". タイムワープ（time warp）- As the term "warp" refers to the act of teleporting through space, the term "time warp" refers to the act of teleporting through time. ウラシマ効果（Urashima effect）- While not strictly "travelling" through time, your actions occur on a different time axis. (e.g. When you move close to the speed of light you will perceive time as slower than a person on earth.)
Fun fact: the word 'chyuunibyou' started from a radio show, when the host coined the term for any cringy behavior that people do when around that age (including: drinking coffee black and pretending to enjoy the taste, purposefully being a contrarian or having a 'non-mainstream' outlook or interest, being a punk etc). Years after the show ended, there was a 2ch thread where people started sharing their own 'chuunibyou' stories, and some of them were so extreme that it caused the word to change its meaning to the 'full-on anime protagonist persona' today. I also remember hearing moistcr1tikal talking about his past that was literally the symptoms of a chuunibyou, but he had it in college instead of middle school 🤣
It’s a much more compelling thread than the stuff that happened with John Titor, which is the guy that inspired Steins;Gate’s plot in pretty big ways, so I like it. It’s a classic old IB thread, but it’s simple. It’s good!
@@TheRibbonRed Donald Trump is John titor, in his original world the Deepstate launched a nuclear war and the last humans were fighting an artificial intelligence while the "elites" who launched the war were in their bunkers full of food and slaves. He time traveled and became president. One of the reasons he came back was to retrieve an old IBM 5100, It was later found out that the IBM 5100 had an undisclosed feature that let it debug and emulate code between programming languages.
No way. John Titor is much more interesting. You can spend days reading the threads he made and the speculations about his posts. The problem is that a lot of people dont do simple research and believe second hand accounts about the John Titor posts, and there are also those sloppy investigators that in order to pass the whole as a hoax will believe very easily some random speculation about his real identity.
@@manudollfie I kinda disagree, though. The bit that makes Titor interesting in my opinion *is* the secondhand posts and urban legend that was built up around him. As far as the original post goes, (subsequent Titor posts are very likely not the OP) I think this one provides a more compelling *story* than the Titor guy did. That’s just my taste, though.
A fascinating peak into the online culture of Japan. Thanks for covering this, I haven't seen anyone else go quite as in depth as you do with these types of stories from Japan.
As someone who is a mostly English speaking American, I’ve often wondered where the fuck are the rest of the languages online? Every major social website is American made, 90% of pages unless they’re someone’s personal page are in English, it’s just so fucking weird. I’m into a lot of German music and try to brush up on it when I can but outside of a few subreddits or Instagram pages it’s like where the fuck is everyone?
@@PlutoTheGod Content on the internet is disproportionately produced in English. It's something around 60% English when only 17% of the world speaks English. If you want to find content in other languages you have to go out of your way to do it, and it may not exist in your target language. As an English speaker, you can probably find a forum for just about any obscure topic or video game. If you were a German speaker you may not find anything online for whatever fandom you're a part of, which is why there's so many ESL speakers globally. Many people today learn English because the content they're looking for only exists in English. As for the reason why most stuff is produced in English, it's probably because the internet was invented in America. Everyone else started out on the backfoot in terms of infrastructure and the culture adapting to this new technology and by now it's largely become the standard to make things with the option to use in English. The only reason you wouldn't is if your target audience is entirely local (which it is for many websites, that's why you only hear about them on channels like this). That being said, any major website like twitter or youtube can be used in just about any language. What the algorithm shows you is going to be influenced by your location and language settings.
@@PlutoTheGodit's bcs English is often the second language of all non native English speakers, it is more easy for me to find ppl with the same interest that I have in English than in Spanish, I just use Spanish for very regional things or hobbies that I want to do only in Spanish
The thing about the earthquake and weather predictions is that could be chalked up to studying patterns and making accurate predictions. However the death, murder, and food poisoning is much harder to accurately predict (for obvious reason) unless some foul play was at hand.
IDK about Geology or such but if one could pinpoint a strongness of an earthquake within a margin of a day and calculated a drastic typhoon better than the Govt. then one is really good with it.
There is no way to accurately predict an earthquake, however predicting that a moderate strength one would occur in the Tohoku region just a year after the most devastating one in recorded history occurred is not much of a longshot. There were literal thousands of aftershocks in the first few years after 3-11-2011, during these first few years you could just make a random shot in the dark about an earthquake that's going to happen in Tohoku and you'll have a good chance to hit the mark. So in this case chalking up the earthquake prediction as a lucky coincidence is not too out there of a conclusion.
I had a shaman friend who dimension hopped. I completely believe time travel is possible. The reality is, this isn't something you want to do. Trust me man it's better to just live a normal, simple life. Don't go chasing ghosts and shadows all it will do is drain you and stray you from your path. Then again it seems my path has turned from something exciting to shutting myself indoors and reading manga all day every day. Maybe that's just how I cope now that I quit drinking. anyway TMI. tl;dr this stuff is real man, spooky scary.
You should just make a standard (short and simple) outro that _reminds_ people to like and/or subscribe if they like the content, rather than _asking_. People do forget.
My suspicion is this: A website moderator may have created the entire thread and somehow manipulated the dates. The only thing that throws me off in such a case is that if they had done so, it's hard to see any purpose in the inclusion of inaccuracies like the earthquake being a day before. But this same thing is thought to have been done involving the fictional game "Polybius", and the motives for doing so could range from increasing site visitor traffic, fame, or just creating something for people to get excited about.
this is the explanation my mind went to immediately. not only does it make sense but it's also the only explanation that doesn't break my entire reality
私のリクエストに応えて頂き、ありがとうございました！😊 Also, on 2ch, there are lots of fun things to do, such as making an unpopular anime character take first place in a popularity poll (such as forcing Hannes to take first place in Attack on Titan 😂), and buying up bean sprouts at a festival. have something to talk about! I would love for everyone to see it✨ 言語が違うので外国の方には伝わりにくいですが、日本のネット文化も他国と同じ様にかなり面白いです。これを機会にぜひ日本のネット文化に興味を持ってくださったら嬉しいです✨ Japanalysisさんへ。まさか、自分のリクエストがこうやって動画になるなんて貴重な体験で感動したし、凄く嬉しかったです！本当にありがとうございました😭💓
My assumption was this was a guy who's job prolly had to do with natural disasters having some non-public knowledge and was doing a bit of trolling. Or heck, maybe he worked in the news and knew which stories were going to be broadcasted and when. Especially because of the short time frame, I really see this as a guy with special knowledge trolling rather than anything supernatural happening.
There's nothing supernatural happening that's for sure, it's kinda silly that japanese people (heck even other people reading this youtube thread) think he has some kinda of super power or whatever.. What's the interesting part is as you mentioned whether he had some special knowledge of working at specific place like news and what not or if he was perhaps doing some statistics and just guessed, since for example murders happen everyday in Japan.
@@Nomishko I'd say you're unreasonably disbelieving. Just because you don't like supernatural stuff or whatever, doesn't mean they don't happen. And supernatural is just a tag, really. It could probably be explained through science over time, however long that takes.
The one prediction that stands out is the worker dying trapped under concrete. The rest are fairly common occurrences: earthquakes, food poisoning, and murders happen everyday in Japan. P.S. never eat undercooked chicken.
"food poisoning, murders, earthquakes" - generally yes, but he specifically said that it is a "group", meaning a lot of people poisoned at the same time, not the single occurence and also the details of the murder. Yeah you can say "tomorrow someone will die, earthquake may occur", but try to say where and how and you will see that you can't predict it that easily.
If there's some kind of natural disaster it's lickely that there will be fatal victims. The way he said worker without specifiying the gender looks like a bet. Group of people getting food poisoned isn't something that easy to predict and the murdered dad even less. But anon could be planning a small amount of trolling and spoiled it online
Ok. Now this is pretty interesting.. one of the most convincing case of time travel I ever heard of.. Hard to believe that he made very detailed predictions instead of vague ones.. The earthquake is the most unbelievable there is.
@@sewan1485 the video literally talked about time discrepancies/parallel universe. The fact that the things actually happened even with minor differences is interesting.
you can make 10 post say earthquake and be right.... dude are you mentally invalid? you could give really exact timing data ciencie proof... wtf is he not doing that? is he also mentally r3tarded? :S please stop all been idiots on porpuse it doesnt make sense.
Just to put this out there, Don Quixote is a story about a man who read a lot of fictional books about knights and princesses and decided to set out on adventures. He would get himself into delusional situations that would somehow pan out. Haven’t read all of it but plan to.
Super interesting, please do more 2chan/old forum videos, the oddity mystery things like this are especially cool. I was almost interested in trying the time traveling method from the guide but the idea of everything being mandela effected and not knowing how to get back makes me more scared than interested, even if I'm skeptical of it working.
Going back to past to mend your actions in the future seemed a nice ability to have. For now I can only see fragments of what is gonna happen in the future through a dream. I cannot control it tho, it just shows me the place, things and people nearby or in front of me at the exact moment. It might be just Deja vu but it happened so many times now, and still happening from time to time. The most notable thing about this is that I stopped having regular dreams when I got into middle school (when I slept, I don't have any dreams at all). Now, whenever I dream, I know it was bound to happen, sooner or later.
this is very interesting to me. mostly because the way he did it, and the way he felt ( unable to move ) is kinda exactly lined up with the way people astral travel, “reality shift”, etc. etc.
The closest I have with these kinds of events is when I was 7. I have an older brother and older sister, the three of us woke up one morning and we had the exact same dream. It was pretty cool. Sadly, I don't remember the dream, but I do remember the feeling of excitement and intrigue we all had as we talked and knew details of each other's dream. It's like we entered into the dream world together and went on an adventure. It was a fleeting moment as we all had to get ready for school but I believe that that moment influenced our way of thinking. My brother is very religiously inclined, he used to be incredibly scientific but then he shifted, my sister is easily susceptible to godly conspiracies as well but in a different way, more spiritual and supernatural than religious. I, however stayed on the scientific. Other worlds and time cracks, especially, are most interesting. I really wished that memories of dreams didn't fade ever so quickly. I'd love to know what happened. But, whatever it was, that dream triggered our curiousness of unseen forces and unknown laws. We're all figuring it out in different ways and I just can't help but think that if we didn't share tht dream, we would be completely different people today. Part of me still slightly believe that we lived our entire lives in that dream and woke up back in time to change certain outcomes.
If you want to remember a dream, the instant second you wake up you have to think about the dream, try remembering then how much is possible, if you repeat that the dream becomes a memory and it doesn t fade away easily long term
So... some predicted Japan would have an earthquake and tsunami? I just wrote "food poisoning" and I found about of recent news of it as well. Also, most eastern Asian countries have this image of overly strict parents, so their children having resentment towards then isn't unheard, and I bet the same can be said about the bat, blunt weapon are probably the most common weapon to be used in Japan a country with strict regulations for weapons. I reckon the one about the worker is hard to explain, but it wasn't exactly what happened and as you said, there were thousands of threads like that, it is inevitable something like that would happen and someone would be "right", how many people were wrong though?
It's this funny little phenomenon where these sorts of future predictions are more likely to be believed if you throw out multiple predictions, even if they're wrong. If the predictor says only one thing will happen and something kind of close happens one day off, you'd say they're just guessing, right? But if the predictor says multiple things that are each kinda correct, all of a sudden it becomes believable, despite it actually being false on every point. Not to mention none of these are actually all that rare to be honest. Japan's on the monstrous geological fault of the western edge of the Pacific Plate so even large earthquakes are common. Murders aren't really rare anywhere in the world (and in Japan, the murder weapon isn't going to be a gun in interfamilial murders, so of course it would be blunt force object or stabbing, and the actual weapon was never proven here, besides the kinda right but actually wrong suspected weapon of a wood sword). "Group poisoning" is honestly just really vague. It could be a cult style kool-aid thing, food poisoning, or something else. "Group" also just doesn't really mean anything without context. Two people can be a group, and so can the entire city of Flint. Two lovers in a suicide pact could be a group poisoning just as much as the whole city of Flint having horrifically flawed water supply systems. However, because there are multiple predictions that are kinda correct even if none of them are individually, it seems to some people that it is true. It's some false flag in our minds that probably goes back to low-information survival environments. Imagine you are a hunter-gatherer and you heard kinda the tiger-in-a-bush noise. Probably just a bush in the wind. But if you then see kinda the orange stripes of a tiger, you should be very alarmed. The part of someone getting trapped under concrete was pretty wild though. I don't think it's a common construction fatality. Based on statistics I find, its probably pretty rare as it doesn't even come up as a cause of construction fatalities.
@@Zeromus725 I will remember your nickname and try to contact you (if I won't jump too far). See, I don't really believe in it, but if it happens It could be a way to 'experiment'. Is there something that I can say that would 100% convince you I have traveled back in time? So your past you would believe me?

1. I'm totally in favor of more 2ch threads 2. I feel like the earthquake, Typhoon, and food poisoning are things that are pretty easy to randomly guess. Typhoons and earthquakes happen all the time in Japan, and in a counter of ~120m people, a random food every few days isn't that far fetched.
Yes,but he specifically said it will be exceeding what the government has predicted,if it's a guess,he's having the luck exceeding even anime protagonist. Not to mention the other prediction about the reinforced concrete and the murder.
ive had dreams that actually showed me small parts of days that hadn't happened yet (simple events like grabbing a fork, talking to someone), and each time everything was 100% accurate, even down to how I and other people were standing or sitting, however most of the time I couldn't hear anything
I've actually experienced it three times back then. Got scared and creeped out of how my dreams do happen accurately. It stopped for almost 6 years now, but I do miss that kind of ability ngl
I had a dream like that twice, one was about a quiz in math i had when i was grade 3 and now.... Another dream which i cannot disclose details of because of privacy, it was 1:1 the dream, the details, i just couldn't see well so i didn't know but i knew
I don't know if it's just in my head, but this happened to me when I was a kid. I remembered that I did something terrible on one night and I wish I could redo time. If I remember correctly, my original timeline has a bigger moon and brighter. Sometimes, it changed to a blue moon. It sounds ridiculous but I remembered it like that. One time when I was watching a TV show with a blue moon, I was bewildered when I said to my friends I've seen a blue moon before in real life, which they stare at me weirdly.
For me, I've experienced something like the guy called "zero" in this video I was sleeping soundly that time and then I dreamed about a weather phenomena and saw three tornadoes in a huge hectare of land. Thought it's just a wild dream. Three days have passed and I heard the news reporting about three tornadoes hitting three different provinces in my country "Guess it's just a coincidence", that's what I thought. But then, it happened again
im genuinely curious as to how zero predicted the exact locations correctly tho, like i get earthquakes, murder, and food poisoning are pretty common but what abt their exact locations? howd he get them right
I would love a video explaining Japanese Idol culture, handshake events, how the fans bid on handshakes, and so on. It is fascinating that Japanese idol groups sell millions of hard CDs in today's age, most probably because of the ticket inside the CD case. I have googled and googled and haven't found out the answer to this.
It's definitely either a lucky guess (East Asian parenting and kids' resentment + baseball is massive in Japan. Combined the two...) or as mentioned in the end of the video, the news was indeed posted long before the thread started
@@StingcatKnight I just went to work normally, I noticed my lottery ticket numbers were the same but I thought it already passed so I picked a different number and didn't win.
There is something called "confirmation bias", I think? It's a psychological thing where people tend to select information that confirms their belief, ignore contrary information and stick to vague evidence as proof. I think this is happening right there. People got their predictions, and because they wanted to believe, they made sure to find something that would prove the predictions, no matter how vague or how many discrepancies there were.
The boring answer: survivorship bias. There are COUNTLESS threads from people goofing off pretending to be leaping time, but all it takes is for one to be eerily "correct" for it to make it to the public consciousness. Think of it like documenting how one person walked into a casino for the first time ever, put all his money on 24 Black and winning. The fact is: there were countless other people before him who did something like that and lost. But you only remember the memorable ones.
Correct. Given infinite time and/or attempts, everything that is possible will eventually happen. It's difficult for many to grasp how probability truly works, hence the desire for explanation fills the gaps with easily accessible esotericism.
Once is an oddity, twice is coincidence, three times are a pattern. Who knows though, without being there and only having archives to go off of it's hard to tell
I feel as though this oddly correlates to the concept of reality shifting (which was called quantum jumping earlier in the mid 2010's, but was more limited in scope).
this was fascinating. i've had my own experience with a physical reality shift WITH another person who was experiencing it with me, and a friend on the other side, but seeing someone else living it in real-time, documented, is just mind-blowing. thank you for covering this :D edit: I wonder if the dates on that thread could be edited or something - why hasn't this been talked about internationally?!
Why hasn't this been talked about? Because people who don't understand something just chalk it up to whatever the heck they want so they don't go crazy.
If the dates were shifted or already happened then nobody would respond unless they're part of the hoax. My thoughtsis that obviously it can be 1 guy and a group of friend's doing this if they manipulated time stamps
It's pretty hard to believe these kinds of things unless you single-handedly experienced them all I think that's why it didn't gain international popularity
It's really cool that Steins;Gate, a show based on the John Titor time traveler posting on message boards in 2000, inspired its own time travel stories on message boards Also, I'd bet it's called Time Leaping because that's a thing from Steins;Gate This sounds like a thing from Chaos;Head with delusions into reality
Time Slip is the proper word for 'Time travel' in Japan. This one is from the translation of western novels and movies. Time Leap is from a Japanese movie 時をかける少女 often quoted into another Japanese anime. Time slip and Time travel are popular but time leap is not.
gg is shorthand script for gugu; google usually is said as "Guguru" and the -ru ending makes it sound like a verb. Plus, "Guguru wo suru" or "guguru wo tsukau" are pretty awkward sounding when you can just use it as a verb. "Gugure kasu" was usually thrown at me a lot in my Tera guild lmao.
Welp maybe he thought it was time travel, but maybe he only dreamt of a memory he had from a few days ago. It happens to me, like I was in the body of the victim trying to run away from the murderer, it feels so real even though it was only a recreation of the event my mind had come up with. Sometimes I feel shivers that what my dream has shown was almost the same as how the suspect described how he killed his victim.
Is the kanji character 神 around the 3:00 mark actually referring to "God" with an upper-case G? 神 is often translated as "deity" or "god" (with a lower-case G) in English, but some scholars believe the meaning is so intrinsically connected to traditional beliefs (as in Shinto) that it's best to use character's pronunciation "kami".
imagine if he was actually God's avatar and he just got self aware and started trolling everybody "Yo God, what's the forecast on the 4th?" "Oh, earthquake my guy" "aight bet"
I went through the thread and there are some interesting details he mentions, like once you go back in time you can never return to what was your original present... but not only that: the past that is now your present looks similar to your original world, but it's noticeably different. For example, he says that the shape of countries would change. Even if this isn't true (which very probably isn't) it definitely makes for a great story.
This was absolutely wild. The thing I will say however is to keep in mind some level of skepticism Japan is pron to Earthquakes semi regularly same with typhoons However the fact that he managed to get the magnitude of the earthquake correct and everything managed to line up sure there where some things off but they all generally fit also to predict them all happening back to back is honestly quite scary like if it was just the earthquake I'd easily right it off but everything else alongside predicting when that's a bit harder to disprove... Edit: There is one possibility for it to be disproven but I dunno if it's even possible some have suggested that perhaps a moderator changed the dates of the original posts but I dunno if that's even possible.
2chan content would be such a gold mine. Keep trying new ideas like these, you seem to define your style more and more. I'll continue keeping an eye on your channel. Can't wait to see what's coming next
2chan seems interesting, and plus most stuff about 2chan here in the west are just horror stories, no glorious threads like with 4chan thread recaps over here.
It's kinda wild to imagine how the time lines work for all this While this man's timeline is stuck in a Groundhog day loop, from his perspective his timeline is still linerally moving forward. Regardless of how he's playing out the same events over and over again he still lives moment to moment in a universe that exists completely separate from our own. Now, it gets weird when you start to consider that there was a specific segment in both our timelines that intersected and harmoniously overlapped. These segments then played out perfectly in sync, and at a certain point on the combined timeline they completely split off from one another with no warning just like when they first met. Our time continues to tick on forever forward, just like it always has, while his gets forcibly reset once again. His timeline can be seen as one where he exists as a wanderer through an endless multiverse, and ours is a potential host to countless visitors. Time travel is weird man
"Zero" has basically described astral travel. Except... having gone back in time in astral form, he shouldn't be able to rejoin the world in the past, since his body remains in the present. Unless he was able to reinhabit his past body somehow, maybe he was astral traveling that night as well so it was easier to take the body over?
Sometimes when a timeline is redone or someone travels backwards in it even if they're in a different world sometimes there are certain events that are constants because they help time move along.
what zero is talking about sounds alot like reality shifting. i dont know if it has any base in japanese culture but, reality shifting is a spirtual belief pretty common in fanbases in the wests online culture.
I think he slept on 1st October and during the 7 hours of sleeping he covered 5 days 2nd , 3rd ,4th, 5th and 6th and believed it was completely real and harnessed all the things which was going to happen in next days and when he woke up on 2nd he thought he would on 7th and already knew all the things ahead till 6th but I don't know why zero never posted anything after that maybe it is really time leaping . I always believe that if we believe anything it can happen like he was thinking of time traveling before sleeping it can actually happen
I think this has happened to me. I just woke up and there was no memories of like anything, I was 5 back then, I just woke up and I heard a voice calling someone, I went to the the person who was calling someone, but I didn't know it was my name, she just grabbed my arm. She is now my mother that I know up to the present, on that day I really don't know what has happened I just woke up from something I didn't know of, its not possible that I just won't remember anything for the last 5 years
The other fact that Zero mention might be incorrect but Saying an earthquake will happen in a specific location is really AMAZES ME! It did happen on the exact place he mentioned THAT NADE ME THINK THAT HE REALLY DID TIME SLIP. HOPING ZERO IS FINE AND ALIVE AS OF TODAY.
If only I was on 2ch back then, because I have so many questions: * Can I come along on your next leap? * Will I get paid before or after? * Is my safety guaranteed?
Small story regarding a similar experience (no time-travel and intentionally vague) I'm not sure but someone mentioned in a video I watched once about an 'out of body experience' that can be replicated during sleep, they listed their method, the sensation that appears when it's happening, and their experience in an almost parallel world. I disregarded it at the time but when I fell asleep that night I had the same sensation they described multiple times which never happened to me even once before. I had not intended for that to happen at all, everytime I'd manage to 'stop' it before it happened but I am curious as to what would have happened had I let it go. Descriptions of this parallel world line up with my own spiritual beliefs which is the reason why I didn't let myself go, it just seems like some place you're not supposed to be in, which is why I'm being vague about it. That or it's a completely deep and complex concept in the mind like an ID well from ID Invaded... I've had dreams like that too. I don't think there's any time travel involved 😅 (though if you've read the sequel, maybe it's possible)
As a person who completely disregards stories like this, you will be surprised that out of body experiences aren't uncommon and have been scientifically recorded when they happened. When a person is clinically dead, they can usually be brought back to life using modern technology but in that state of being clinically dead, their brains become extremely active, especially the parts of the mind responsible for dreaming and fantasizing. Patients that went through this often described an out of body experience and seeing themselves from above being worked on by the medical staff and even remembering the names of the nurses. This can however be explained and it's not due to spiritual energy, your ears are still active and other senses are still there so your mind has a lot of data to work with when hallucinating an out of body experience. It's really strange but interesting
@@energeticstunts993 that's right , I've also read that when a person is announced dead clinically, their brain is the most active as its trying relentlessly to bring the person back to life trying every possible way to do so. That might be the same thing happening to this person although it has nothing to do with death.
My mother once experiencing "out of body experience" during surgery. Long story short, her heart's valve need to be replace with steel valve because it's entering stage 4 (unrepairable). In the operation room, my mother suddenly woke up but she realised that she's watching herself from above, with surgeons surrounded her body, preparing to start the surgery. It's only for a moment before she fade into unconsciousness. Several days after surgery, she ask nurse about that but they just told her it's the usual side effect of anaesthetic drugs. She genuinely thought she's dying lol, but it's been 10 years and she's still living well, and those situations never occurred again.
@@shukrantpatil We still don't fully know what happens after death so chances are that paranormal stuff are gonna be explained scientifically. No, I'm not saying they're gonna be debunked, I'm saying spiritualism is gonna ve explained. Currently, people are too scared to explore it scientifically.
dude i get exactly what you mean. awhile ago alot of my friends were really interested in this concept called shifting realities, and basically the same thing that was in the video you watched about out of body expierences and going to a parallel world. i didnt really believe it but actually ended up trying to do it quite alot however it never worked the closest i got was seeing all white, feeling my body floating and then i got this really wrong feeling and forced myself to wake up. after that tho i started getting these weird dreams where itd start out as a normal dream with me just doing normal things like being with my friends or something and then i'd get this really really weird wrong feeling like the one i had before that something was going to take me away or take me over? and i would have to fight to like wake myself up and it felt like something was trying to pull me out of my body? sorry idk if that makes any sense but if i lost focus id start to sorta drift out like falling asleep and then id get that really wrong feeling and force myself to wake up. idk it got so bad that i stopped wanting to sleep for awhile. i have insomnia now and dont get much sleep normally so most dreams i dont really remember now but i havent had that feeling happen in any of my dreams for awhile.
What if he was working for a news agency? Maybe some of those predictions were just some articles that the journalists were working on and were going to be aired in those dates+working on the news might give him some insight on meteorological/geological data
My take: These time travel threads were popular so it's bound to happen that one person out of all of them would have great predictions. And the only ones we hear about are the ones that are correct in their predictions. This type of thing has been happening for all of recorded history. Instead of time travel, it was prophets and fortune tellers.
When people post enough of these time travelling stories eventually one will hit. Further, Japan has a large population making sweeping predictions much more likely. And even further to that, murders over there tend to be extreme, earthquakes are common, and I presume food poisoning happens fairly often. It was a lucky hit but a spooky and entertaining story none the less. I wish zero would have continued it on somehow after hitting it. Perhaps its better to leave it alone, the intrigue remains to this day so I'd say good call. If they came back what more could be said? Provide more info and most likely be proved bogus?
