What's REALLY happening to people who suddenly travel 'back in time': The time slip phenomenon has been experienced by floods of Mail readers, as a paranormal expert this is my explanation

When I was a Masters ­student in ­Liverpool in 1996, I deliberately walked the long way into the city ­centre from university every day.

It wasn’t superstition or ­paranoia. It was because I longed to experience the infamous Bold Street Time Slip.

A handful of people claim to have been strolling down this gently sloping thoroughfare only to be suddenly transported back to the 1950s.

The past would be fraught with perils for a person from our time and it smelled really bad.

The one time I visited Gettysburg, I was standing on the hill where Pickett’s Charge took place...It was a kinda foggy morning and very few people were near...A strange feeling came over me and it seemed like I could almost see the battle beginning...I almost could smell the rifle smoke and hear the firing of rifles and cannons...I found myself hardly breathing and looked at my wife...She was looking at me with a strange look in her eyes...
About that time, a couple of people came walking behind us and were talking...All of a sudden, the feelings, smells and sounds went away....
Later, she and I were at our car and she started explaining this weird feeling that had come over her on the hill and we discussed it...We BOTH had the same experience at the same time....
Nothing like that has ever happened again....

I’ve experienced deja vu in Italy. My husband and I were at one of the palazzos in Florence. I was on the second floor looking into the courtyard and he was in the courtyard looking up. We caught each other’s eyes and for about a minute it seemed like the rest of the world disappeared. It was just us, in that space, together and it felt like we had been in that place before.

My husband is a very critical thinker and is not prone to flights of fancy. As we were leaving he mentioned in passing that he felt like he had been there before.

I was shocked. My husband rarely talks about his feelings and for him to experience the same deja vu, let alone admit it, was out of the ordinary.

Like you, I have also seen events unfold before they do. Usually they are warnings and the risk manager in me kicks into gear. I can look at a situation and know innately that if action is not taken, bad things will follow.

Sometimes people brush me off as being an alarmist or hysterical until things blow up. I have to bite my tongue to avoid the “I told you so” urge. Usually, moving forward, they listen.

When I was a teenager my family lived in a three story house. My bedroom was on the third floor. One Saturday morning I heard two men at the bottom of the stairs leading to my room having a brief discussion. I was unfamiliar with both voices. I got up and went downstairs to see who was visiting our home so early on a Saturday morning. My Mom was sipping her coffee and told me that nobody was visiting. The only people in the house were me, her and my three brothers who lived there at that time.

I’ve often wondered if that was a time slip or something else. But I remember it as if it were yesterday and this was back in 1977.

is just more proof we live in a simulation,

Quantum mechanics strongly suggests we live in a computer simulation and nothing in the Bible contradicts this. I certainly think we are.

I would tavel back and made sure Biden and Pelosi’s mother had abortions at the right time, and that certain prosecutors and DAs were aborted. I would also get ride of Hillary and Bill during the 1968 riots. Just to be fair, I would get ride of Bonher, Graham, Rubio, Romney, and a busload of other RINOs.

wow... interesting story, but sleeping for 6 months could be fatal... unless you sleep eat and drink.

I want to go back in time and buy 100,000 shares of Microsoft the day it started trading

A lot of people have similar experiences at Gettysburg and other mid-Atlantic battlefields. I’d say Gettysburg and Sharpsburg are the worst but Brandy Station and all the nearby Culpeper battlefields will do it. The trick is, you have to be alone, and there not always easy to achieve at Gettysburg.

After a busy and stressful night shift, I had a vivid dream of the space shuttle lifting off then exploring. It was so alarming and real I awoke in a panic. I told my coworkers about the dream at shift change the next night. They chided me and shrugged it off. Two weeks later the Challenger disaster unfolded just I had dreamed.

I had a similar, eerie feeling like that the first time I visited Antietam. Just a deep feeling of “dread.”

And that was before I did any deeper reading on the battle.

Antietam is very creepy—and we were dumb enough to stay overnight at a bed and breakfast adjacent to the battlefield.

All of this — the article you posted, and some of the FReeper experiences described here — is just more proof we live in a simulation, and sometimes the simulation glitches.

I've slowly been convinced of this. Seems fairly obvious now.

The closest thing I've experienced to some of the stories being related here, is that my wife and I went to San Antonio when my daughters were fairly young. (5 or 6 I think). We were in the middle of the Alamo, and my youngest said we were being watched. Upon questioning her, she was apparently seeing people near the ceiling. I told her not to worry, that they were just happy that we were there to pay them respect for their sacrifices. She accepted that, and we continued the tour.

If the whole dang country had time-slipped into 1930’s Germany, how would we know the difference?
