The Most Convincing Time Traveller Story

I've found convincing proof that in 2006, a real time traveler emerged from the 1950s, with others also making similar claims. Prepare your Tardis for a mind-bending exploration of compelling and strange stories of time travel. Before we begin, let me clarify that time travel is absolutely possible. According to Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, time and space are connected, and the faster you move, the slower time passes. Scientists tested this theory by placing clocks on a fast-moving airplane and the ground. After comparing the two, the clock on the plane was slightly behind the one on the ground. This doesn't mean we can time travel now, but it is thought-provoking.

1. The remarkable case of Sergey panamarenko

In April 2006, a man dressed in vintage clothing and holding a Retro Camera was seen wandering the streets of Kiev, Ukraine looking completely lost. The bewildered stranger stumbled around in what seemed to be a state of shock before accidentally running into a few nervous police officers. He frantically asked for directions to a place that no longer existed, and then proceeded to inquire about the current year, repeatedly. Growing weary of his constant questions, the officers ultimately decided to arrest the peculiar man on the spot. Some time later, the mysterious gentleman found himself being interrogated while in police custody.

He introduced himself as Sergey Panamarenko and said he was from 1958, which the police didn't believe at first. However, he showed them his ID from the Soviet Union, which Ukraine separated from in 1991. Despite being born in 1932, Sergey looked much younger. He claimed he time-traveled after taking a photo of a strange object in the sky with his fiance Valentina Kurish. The police didn't believe him and sent him for a psychiatric evaluation, but could he prove his wild story?

Sergey, a psychiatrist, grabbed his camera and contacted a photography expert to check for any photos of the unusual bell-shaped object. First, they confirmed the camera was genuinely old. Secondly, the film inside was remarkably well-preserved despite its age, making it difficult to develop with modern technology. The film had been discontinued in 1970, and when it was finally developed, the expert was even more surprised.

The pictures showed Sergey in 1950s attire, one with a woman and another with the mysterious Bell. COV conducted another interview, where Sergey claimed to be a time traveler. He could not explain the Bell-shaped UFO or his experiences. The psychiatrist could not get more answers and sent Sergey back to his room, never to be seen again.

Sergey disappeared from his room despite CCTV confirmation he had returned to it. Even with bars on the window, his disappearance seemed impossible. The police found old records of a Sergey Panamarenko missing in Ukraine in 1960, and they eventually located his supposed fiancée, Valentina Crish, who confirmed his disappearance in 1958. Sergey had reportedly time travelled and become a local celebrity before vanishing for good in the 1970s.

Valentina handed over new photos to the investigators, one of which depicted Sergey standing in keev in 2050. The skyline appeared considerably more advanced than the current day. It raised questions about his whereabouts and how Valentina obtained the photo. Did he time travel multiple times? How did he even time travel initially? His current location remained a mystery, residing potentially centuries or millennia into the future.

The mystery of Sergey's disappearance was never resolved, making his story legendary. It was featured on a Ukrainian TV show called "Aliens" where the events were reenacted. However, the supposed evidence, including CCTV footage and photos, were all recreations. The CCTV footage showed a date of Wednesday, 23rd April 2006, which was actually a Sunday.

The authentic video is suspiciously missing, the ID card has multiple errors, and the image of Sergey in 2050 features cloned skyscrapers. The Ukrainian show may have invented the whole affair and portrayed it as true. There is no real evidence for the story yet, just smoke and mirrors. It remains unclear if this is a convincing time travel tale or an exaggerated urban legend.

2. A Wartime Wonder

During a routine flying mission in 1935, British Air Marshall Sir Robert Victor Goddard experienced an unusual turn of events. Sir Goddard was flying back home to Andover, England from Scotland when he passed over an air base near Drem. While looking at the hangers below, Gard was surprised to see a sudden storm with unusual brown and yellow clouds and violet winds, causing him to lose control of his plane and descend through the clouds.

However, as he sped through them quicker, he delved deeper and emerged panicked and sweaty yet alive. Regaining control of the plane, he faced the air base once more, but this time it was bustling with activity and filled with workers assembling unfamiliar yellow planes and pilots in blue overalls instead of the typical brown. He wondered where and when he had ended up.

After being thrown into a turbulent storm cloud, Goddard returned home to find everything seemingly normal. Shocked and bewildered, he shared his incredible experience with everyone. Over the years, Goddard's story became well-known, but few believed it. By 1939, something extraordinary happened at the airbase near DM - it was renovated and not only back in action, but yellow planes and blue overalls became the norm for the RAF.

All the visions Godard had in 1935 actually happened, leading some to speculate he may have experienced a time slip, a hypothetical phenomenon that can transport one to a different historical period through a disruption in SpaceTime. While some doubt his story, others believe he may have fabricated it for attention or was simply hallucinating.

I have my doubts that an RAF pilot like Victor Goddard, who is well-regarded and respected, would fabricate such stories. It seems unlikely that a random hallucination could explain his experiences, so how do we explain the coincidences turning out to be true?

Goddard went on to become a firm believer in the Paranormal and he even wound up writing books on the subject I have to say whether what he saw was real or not I do believe he at least thought it was.

3. The time Authority

There have been many individuals who have declared themselves as the first time traveler caught on camera, but Dziga Vertov, also known as Vertov, has gained a group of dedicated followers and a YouTube interview from 2014. He told his tale about the future Authority's ability to control Time Travelers and Ordinary People to prevent them from altering History; they have the power to erase memories or imprison individuals in a Perpetual cell while a clone takes their place.

According to Vertov, he took a big risk to conduct the interview. It was not for any positive reason, as a warning was given that future generations will face catastrophe. Society is predicted to collapse, money will disappear, but Vertov also mentioned that we will eventually rebuild and discover how to utilize unlimited resources.

The interviewer was understandably doubtful of these claims when our future friend refused to provide any evidence. Vertov didn't react well to this skepticism and left the set, never to return. Perhaps he had gone back to his time machine and decided that the past was not worth revisiting. It's hard to believe anything without proof, but presenting evidence may have altered the timeline and upset the supposed time Authority. It's curious how his way of speaking does not seem different from ours despite living 10 centuries in the future. The verdict is still out on this matter.

4. A Very Long Nap

Have you heard about a coma patient waking up and being astonished by the changes in the world? Well, imagine waking up 20 years later like Paul Amadeus Dienach did in 1921, only to find yourself in the year 3906. That's some incredible time travel!

Dienach, a Swiss teacher born in 1884, had a brief relationship with a woman who left him for a wealthy man, leading him into a severe depression. In 1917, he was diagnosed with Encephalitis lethargica, also known as the sleeping sickness. Due to an illness, he began experiencing sudden episodes of unconsciousness, leading to the well-known coma of 1921. Upon waking up in a hospital unfamiliar to him, Dienach discovered he was in a different body, that of physicist Andreas Noram, who had been in an accident. Despite not understanding the language spoken by the hospital staff, Dienach could see past events through Noram's memories. Through this, he realized he was in the year 3906, where humanity had been devastated by violence, poverty, and overpopulation, leading to a catastrophic nuclear war after his time.

After our species rebuilt under a new world government with true equality and prosperity, strange spiritual entities visited Earth and brought Enlightenment. Humans even learned to control chemicals in their bodies. Despite sounding fantastical, this was almost 2,000 years in the future. The world of 3906 was essentially a Utopia, where people worked for only 2 years before retiring. While living in the future, Dienach fell in love with a woman he believed was the reincarnation of his lost love. However, after a year of utopia, he suddenly awoke back in 1922. Being an intellectual, Dienach kept his experience to himself out of fear of being called crazy. He eventually wrote all about his experiences in a diary and moved to Greece to teach. During his time there, he gave the diary to his preferred student George Papahatzis to read, despite being advised not to share it. Papahatzis eventually went against his teacher's trust and published it in 1972.

Whether you agree with his decision or not, we wouldn't have known about it otherwise, which is the main issue. Some argue that Papahatzis's work was actually fictional and passed off as true for publicity. This would mean that Dienach was never a real person, but rather a literary creation. In fact, the photo commonly associated with him was found to be of a criminal from New Zealand, raising suspicions. Others believe that Dienach did exist and had a remarkable experience, but it wasn't time travel. It was likely just an extremely vivid dream, similar to those experienced by coma patients, making it a plausible explanation.

what if Dienach really saw the World of Tomorrow - does he even exist? The only way to know is to wait and see if his predictions come true, although it could take some time.

5. Future Photo

We may need to consider wearing tinfoil hats for the following story. In 2018, a man named Alexander Smith appeared in videos on the YouTube channel Apex TV and made a shocking revelation: he believed he was a time traveler. It was no surprise when he mentioned that the CIA had sent him on a classified mission in 1981, where he traveled to the year 2118. Despite keeping the details of the mission secret, he claimed the CIA was displeased with his actions upon his return. Smith stated that he had to go into hiding as the CIA continued to pursue him.

Alright, so besides his statement, all we've got is Smith showing a photo he claimed was taken in 2118, but was confiscated by the CIA. The blurry image supposedly showed a futuristic cityscape, which he had been keeping since the 80s. He believed the world wasn't ready to see it until now, and used it to warn about climate change impacting the future. The blurry image was said to be a result of time travel.

Additionally, his inconsistent American accent doesn't convince me. Coupled with the strange mask he's wearing, it appears that Alexander was simply a opportunist seeking fame, unless time travel caused his face to change. I couldn't resist including this for its humor.

6. sinkhole

In a 2006 documentary, a Swedish man named Hakan Nordkvist shared his unbelievable time travel story with the world. One day, while trying to fix a leak under his sink, he was startled to see the sink move away from him as if by magic. He had to crawl under it to reach the leak, but then a blinding white light appeared and surrounded him.

After hakan disappeared from the kitchen, he found himself outside, facing an older version of himself. Despite feeling startled, the older him was pleased to see his younger self. Understanding that no one would believe the encounter, young hakan recorded their conversation on his cell phone.

Yes, they both got tattoos that matched after having an amazing time. However, Hakan had to go back to his time to tell his story. The documentary has stirred up controversy online, with many questioning if everything is as it appears. It's suspicious that Hakan never explains how he returned and that the footage is conveniently blurry when showing the future person's face.

The cell phone cameras available at the time were not very good, but he could have captured a better angle. Moreover, skeptics noticed that the matching tattoos appeared too fresh - shouldn't the older man's tattoo have been more worn? These questions were valid since it was later unveiled that it was all a publicity stunt. It was orchestrated by the insurance company AMF for their pension plans, using Time Travelers as a theme. It's confusing, I know.

7. Mysterious Messages

In 1984, a dusty old cottage in the English village of Doston became the setting for an unbelievable tale of time travel. Teacher Ken Webster, his girlfriend Debbie, and their long-term guest Nicola were renovating the property when they discovered mysterious six-toed footprints. Initially dismissing it as a prank, they ignored the strange footprints but things took a bizarre turn with unexplained cold spots, strange shadows, and rooms filled with neatly stacked cat food. Despite the strange occurrences, they continued on until a significant change happened. Ken, a teacher, obtained a modern computer and was surprised to see eerie text on the screen. The message was a spooky poem about nightmares and decaying flowers. Another mysterious message soon followed, accusing Webster of theft in an old dialect, signed LW. Initially, Ken thought it was a joke.

However, it's important to note that this occurred in 1984, a time when the internet was extremely basic and Ken's computer was not linked to any network, so he couldn't have just randomly decided to message LW. Kem cautiously sent a message to LW and surprisingly received a reply, which led to more messages being exchanged. Gradually, LW and Ken began to build a relationship. Lucas, previously known as LW, stated he resided in the 1500s, which clarified the dialect used on the land where Ken's Cottage now stands. It was Lucas who had been causing the strange occurrences through a time slip to grab Ken's attention. Additionally, Lucas disclosed communicating with a mysterious individual from the year 2109.

The man from the future had come to the past and given Lucas a box of Lights, which might have been the computer he used to talk to Ken. Making things more confusing, Lucas revealed his true name was Thomas and he had been using a fake name under orders from the man from 2109.

In the end, the man from 2109 also joined the conversation, revealing to Ken that he and Thomas were part of a secret experiment with the potential to change history. However, by disclosing his real name, Thomas may have jeopardized the grand plan, the details of which remain unknown. In his final message to Ken, Thomas mentioned being accused of Witchcraft and forced to leave his land, but still expressed gratitude for their friendship and vowed to leave a book about the events for Ken to find later. The man from 2109 assured that the book would eventually be found, but then disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a mysterious and eerie story. Despite its strange and complicated nature, it all comes from Ken's book, "The Vertical Plane."

Ken definitely benefitted from this, giving reason to fake it. However, after analyzing messages from Thomas, Peter Trinder, an English teacher, confirmed the authenticity of the vocabulary to the 1540s. Other academics have disagreed, noting inconsistencies that could suggest a hoax. Despite this, the true origins remain unknown. The messages were genuine, as no one was present to create them. Thomas's promised book has yet to be found, leaving doubts about its existence. I am undecided, hoping it is real, but without more evidence, the truth remains uncertain. It is up to you to decide.
