Ten
People Who Traveled Through Time
If one wants to travel through time, the only way we know of is to
get your hands on a speeding DeLorean with a Plutonium powered flux capacitor.
There are probably a bunch of other ways to do it we just don't understand all
the nuances of the our own earth yet, let alone the wonders of the universe.
Some scientists think that it might be at least theoretically
possible to travel through time, no one (as far as we know) has devised a
sure-fire way to make it happen. But that's not to say that people haven't
reported traveling through time. There are many fascinating stories from those
who say they seem to have quite unexpectedly visited - if only briefly -
another time and, sometimes, another place. These events, often called time
slippages, seem to occur randomly and spontaneously. Those who experience these
events are often bewildered and confused by what they see and hear, and
afterward are at a complete loss to explain them.

Mountauk Experiment
|
Is the
Government Conducting Time Travel Experiments?
The Montauk Air Force Station is rumored to house a massive,
subterranean laboratory where top-secret government experiments in time travel
are being conducted. Rumors began in the early 1980s when two men, Preston
Nichols and Al Bielek, said that they had begun to recover suppressed memories
of working in the lab. Many believe that the laboratory managed to create a
"time tunnel," which allowed scientists to travel back to 1943.
A Time Portal in Versailles
In 1901, Eleanor Jourdain (above left) and Anne Moberly
(right), the vice- principal and principal, respectively, of St. Hugh's College
in Oxford, reported that they had accidentally slipped back in time. While
visiting a small chateau on the grounds of Versailles, the women suddenly found
themselves in the time of the French Revolution, where they reported seeing and
interacting with people who they believed to be in the court of Marie
Antoinette. The two women posthumously published an
account of their tale,
calling the book 'An Adventure'

A Portal
in Liverpool
Bold Street in Liverpool has gained quite the reputation recently.
Many people have claimed that while on the street they have suddenly been
transported back to the 1950s and '60s. According to a report called "On
the Edge of Time" by Tim Swartz, a man walking along Bold Street slipped
back in time to the 1950s. When he returned to their own time he recounted
seeing the names of several historically accurate store signs.

Hawker Hart Biplane
|
Flight
into The Future
In 1935, Air Marshal Sir Victor Goddard of the British Royal Air
Force had a harrowing experience in his Hawker Hart biplane. Goddard was a Wing
Commander at the time and while on a flight from Edinburgh, Scotland to his
home base in Andover, England, he decided to fly over an abandoned airfield at
Drem, not far from Edinburgh. The useless airfield was overgrown with foliage,
the hangars were falling apart and cows grazed where planes were once parked.
Goddard then continued his flight to Andover, but encountered a bizarre storm.
In the high winds of the storm's strange brown-yellow clouds, he lost control
of his plane, which began to spiral toward the ground. Narrowly averting a
crash, Goddard found that his plane was heading back toward Drem. As he
approached the old airfield, the storm suddenly vanished and Goddard's plane
was now flying in brilliant sunshine. This time, as he flew over the Drem
airfield, it looked completely different. The hangars looked like new. There
were four airplanes on the ground: three were familiar biplanes, but painted in
an unfamiliar yellow; the fourth was a monoplane, which the RAF had none of in
1935. The mechanics were dressed in blue overalls, which Goddard thought odd
since all RAF mechanics dressed in brown overalls. Strange, too, that none of
the mechanics seemed to notice him fly over. Leaving the area, he again encountered
the storm, but managed to make his way back to Andover. It wasn't until 1939
that that the RAF began to paint their planes yellow, enlisted a monoplane of
the type that Goddard saw, and the mechanics uniforms were switched to blue.
Had Goddard somehow flown four years into the future, then returned to his own
time?
The
Philadelphia Experiment
In the fall of 1943, the
USS Eldridge was allegedly made invisible and telported from Pennsylvania to
Virginia in an incident that came to be known as the Philadelphia Experiment.
Alfred Bielek achieved notoriety as Eldridge's sole survivor. His
memories were buried until he saw the movie, The Philadelphia Experiment in
1988, at which time he remembered that he was born in 1916 as Ed
Cameron.
As Cameron, he'd been
recruited in 1940 for a Navy Project called Project Rainbow, whose purpose was
to figure out how to make ships invisible. For reasons not entirely clear
"black ops" soldiers later sent Cameron through a portal to the
Pentagon to Alpha Centauri One, where aliens interrogated him and then
physically regressed him into a one year old Al Bielek in 1927. Bielek later
claimed that he became the director of mind control for the Montauk Project
whose members in the 1980's traveled through a time vortex and changed the
outcome of various wars. When they returned to their own time they would
evaluate the changes and determine if they were for the better. If not they
would simply restore the status quo.

Time
Traveler In Chaplin Movie
A woman filmed outside the 1928 premiere of Charlie
Chaplin's The Circus has convinced many people that time
travel is real. The unidentified woman holds her hand up to her ear and talks
to somebody, although no one is near her. But wait — there were no cell phones
in 1928! Could this woman be a time traveler communicating with her
contemporaries via mobile phone?
China,
traveling from the tomb
Time
Travel with a time twist
In December 2008, Chinese
archaeologists removed the opening of a giant coffin within what was
believed to be an undisturbed, 400-year old Si Qing tomb in Shangsi County.
Once they removed the soil around the coffin, , they were shocked to find
this: A small piece of metal shaped like a watch, with the time frozen at
10:06. “Swiss” was engraved on the back..

Von
Helton the Time-Traveling Vampire
Known simply as VonHelton, this enigmatic figure suggests he might
be part vampire, but asserts he is 100% time traveler. He has provided proof of
his time travel prowess by lining up side-by-side photographs of himself
starting in a studio in 1857 England, with stops in 1916 France, 1945 Berlin,
and ending in the modern day in front of an American flag. Is he, in fact, a
time traveler? Or is his "vampire gene" keeping him immortal?

Man Meets
Himself
Hakan Nordqvist was having a normal if irksome time fixing his
leaky sink when he suddenly found himself crawling through a tunnel. At the end
of the tunnel was Hakan himself - but as an older man, somewhere around 70. So
that his claims wouldn't be refuted, Hakvan filmed himself jovially embracing…
himself. The footage even shows the two men showing off their matching tattoos.

Multiple watches helps when time traveling

Time
Traveler Discovers the Secrets of Macedonia
Pasko Kuzman is a Macedonian archaeologist whose findings are
considered incredibly important in his field — oh, and he's also a
self-proclaimed time traveler. He wears multiple watches on one arm, which he
says help him travel through time: one takes him back to the Bronze and
Neolithic Age, one takes him to the future, and the third is "The
Archeologists' Watch," which alerts him to the presence of gold. Could his
archeological fame be due to actually having visited the past?

Time
Traveler Caught in 1941 Photo
At first glance, this photo appears to be nothing out of the
ordinary — The picture above, taken in 1941 is from the reopening in
South Forks of Gold Bridge in British Columbia. The bridge was almost entirely
washed away during a flood in 1940. One man appears to be oddly out of
place wearing ray-bans sunglasses in the middle of a much more formal group of
hat and tie wearing locals. Observers at the museum where this photo is on
display have also noted that he is wearing a silk-screen tee shirt, this technology
was not available in the 1940's and he is also holding a modern 35 mm camera.
The photo has been authenticated to be 70+ years old.

Highway
to the Past
In October, 1969, a man
identified only as L.C. and his business associate, Charlie, were driving north
from Abbeville, Louisiana toward Lafayette on Highway 167.
As they were driving along the nearly empty road, they began to
overtake what appeared to be an antique car traveling very slowly. The two men
were impressed by the mint condition of the nearly 30-year-old car - it looked
virtually new - and puzzled by its bright orange license plate on which was
stamped only "1940." They figured, however, that the car had been
part of some antique auto show. As they passed the slow-moving vehicle, they
slowed their car to get a good look at the old model. The driver of the old car
was a young woman dressed in vintage 1940s clothing, and her passenger was a
small child likewise dressed. The woman seemed panicked and confused. L.C.
asked if she needed help and, through her rolled up window, indicated
"yes." L.C. motioned for her to pull off to the side of the road. The
businessmen pulled ahead of the old car and turned onto the shoulder of the
road. When they got out... the old car had vanished without a trace. There were
no turnoffs or anywhere else the vehicle could have gone. Moments later,
another car pulled up to the businessmen and, quite puzzled, said he had seen
their car pull off to the side... and the old car simply vanish into thin air.

1950s
Educational Video Instructor
In footage from a civil defense educational film from the 1950s, a
teacher gestures to the chalkboard on which is written, "With
Warning" and "Game 2 Giants 9 Rangers 0." Such was the score of
game 2 of the 2010 World Series. Is this proof that the teacher was in reality
a time traveling sports fan?

Is Henry
Fonda from the Future?
As Lt. Col. Owen Thursday in the 1948 movie, Fort Apache, Henry
Fonda appears in one stagecoach scene to pull out and interact with what
appears to be an iPhone. Could it be that Fonda visited the future and brought
home a souvenir? Or perhaps the props master found the phone misplaced by a
careless time traveler from our own time?
