A man who claims to have taken part in time-traveling experiments in the 1980s has revealed what the world will look like in almost 100 years' time.

The man, who hid his true identity behind a human-like latex mask and called himself Alexander Smith, claimed that he was transported to the year 2118 by the CIA in 1981.

In a recent video posted on popular YouTube conspiracy channel ApexTV, the alleged time traveler "surfaced with fresh revelations" about the scary future of planet Earth.

He claimed: "The world as we know it will change a lot and I feel it being beneficial to humanity to know not only about this change but also about the secret technologies being withheld from the public.

"After my original video and after the second interview I did, in which I showed the photograph taken in the year 2118, I have decided it is time to share every detail of my experience."

According to the Daily Star, Smith issued a grave warning to the world’s population, saying: "I believe the people deserve to know. I believe that you, whoever is out there watching this, I believe that you deserve to know the truth because I feel it would be beneficial to the human race about what is happening behind closed doors."

According to the time traveler, WW3 is set to take place soon

Terrifyingly, he predicts that the world will experience a third global war at some point in the next 100 years, and afterwards, most people will be forced to live in towering metropolises with cutting-edge technology, AI systems, aliens, and flying transport.

Smith is convinced that the civilization-changing conflict would be sparked by a “conflict of interests” between the United States and North Korea in the near future.

In the video, he explained: "The conflict started off small, however, it soon spread and Russia soon took the side of North Korea.

"Tensions began to escalate, and eventually missiles were fired.

"I can't say where these missiles hit; however, I can say the effects were not what one may consider desirable. However, as a result of this conflict, the world began to become one.”

War would bring the world closer together

Heartwarmingly, he outlined how the war could bring us closer to world peace, saying: "Borders began to become meaningless and the people began to have a love and appreciation for life - one which would inspire them not to inflict any type of harm upon their neighbor.

"As a result of that, of the conflict, which some might describe as a Third World War, the world became a better place."

Another bizarre proclamation made by the self-described time traveler was that commercial time travel will become available to ordinary people in just two years' time.

Also in 2028, the US Government will reveal that intelligent alien life forms exist.

However, it may come as a shock to you that Smith has little evidence to back up his profound proclamations, so perhaps stick to planning your next vacation closer to home.

A man who claims he traveled back in time from the year 2045 has made a series of extraordinary predictions, with one specifically impacting the United States.

The man, who calls himself Adam Archon, alleged that time travel would become available to the public in 2028. According to him, that same year will also be the moment extraterrestrials openly reveal themselves, ending what he described as years of government secrecy.

While the self-proclaimed time-traveler discussed alien life, the disappearance of physical cash, and US existentialism, there was no mention of flying, self-driving cars, android-like governance, and phones built into our hands.

Archon, who bizarrely claimed to have been born on December 6, 2019, despite recording the interview months earlier in March 2019, offered no evidence to support his story.

The interview recently resurfaced online following renewed interest in UFOs after the Pentagon released classified files.

Speaking while reportedly connected to a lie detector, Archon declared: "Yes, it is true that aliens did land on Earth in August 2028. In fact, we have known of the existence of aliens before 2028, but it isn't until 2028 that it becomes public knowledge."

During the interview with YouTube channel Apex TV, his face was blurred and his voice disguised. He claimed he had travelled back to a period before his own birth because, in the future, visiting history had become routine.

He also alleged: "Time travel was released to the public in 2028, but it was invented in 1981. It was just kept secret until they released it publicly."

Archon went on to suggest that many UFO sightings reported today are actually vehicles used by future time travellers visiting important historical moments.

The ten-minute interview has attracted more than 1.3 million views, with Apex TV claiming the lie detector indicated he was telling the truth throughout.

Another prediction involved a microchip known as "The One," which Archon claimed people would begin receiving in February 2029. According to him, the implant would allow users to make payments, improve brain performance, and enhance health, eventually replacing traditional money altogether.

While similar implant technology already exists for contactless payments, Archon insisted his version would make physical cash obsolete worldwide.

He then predicted an even more dramatic event. According to his timeline, the United States would no longer exist as an independent nation by 2030, becoming part of a global government divided into continental regions.

Under this system, he claimed America would become "District 3." Archon further alleged that this new world government would eventually be overseen by an artificial intelligence known as "The Light," scheduled to launch in 2033.

He claimed the AI would be integrated into every electronic device, allowing people to ask it questions at any time, while ten government officials would oversee its decisions to ensure they remained ethical.

Looking even further into the future, Archon claimed that by 2045 scientists would have successfully cloned dinosaurs, creating a real-life version of Jurassic Park.

He said: "You can see T-rexes, Triceratops, velociraptors. If they existed, you can see them. People can go and visit things in the past, like to go visit the dinosaurs or major world events."

The time-traveler has been brought into question

Despite the video's popularity, many aspects of Archon's story have been questioned.

In another video uploaded in January 2019, he predicted there would be a noticeable rise in UFO sightings later that year. Although UFO reports did increase, many of his other forecasts failed to happen.

For example, he claimed: "In 2020, there will be a robot released to the public that causes a lot of controversy."

No such widely recognised event occurred, and he also made no mention of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Viewers also noticed an inconsistency in the recording itself. One sceptic commented: "Does anyone else see that the video is 3:36 minutes long but the clock in the back moves a good 15 minutes? That means this was rehearsed and they had to cut out the mistakes."

Perhaps his most controversial prediction involved Yolanda Renee King, the granddaughter of Martin Luther King Jr. During the interview, Archon claimed: "Yolanda Renee King does become, and she is in fact noted as the greatest president of the United States, yes I can confirm."

However, critics pointed out a major contradiction. If the United States ceased to exist by 2030, as Archon predicted, there would be no US presidency for King to hold.

In addition, King would not reach the constitutional minimum age of 35 to run for president until 2043, making the timeline impossible under current US law.

"It was unbelievable," Edward said. "I was standing on a huge wooden platform. Not only me - houses, buildings, vehicles, of course, all made from wood."

He continued: "After I realized it was the same city, Los Angeles, but underwater. Just it was flooded and the whole city was underwater, and people (were) living on the water."

A self-proclaimed "time traveler" has shared a photo that he allegedly took in the year 5000.

It seems like there are many time travelers around these days, and yet none of them seem to be willing to give me the winning lottery numbers.

Anyway, we've once again been warned about the future, but what is it we are adding to our ever-growing list of fears?

Time Traveler Issues Warning

A man named Edward says he was part of a time-travel experiment that launched him 3,000 years into the future - and he swears he has the photographic evidence to prove it.

According to Edward, it all happened back in 2004 while he was working in a lab in Los Angeles. There, he claims he was “assigned the duty to visit the future and take photographs of what he saw.”

In a resurfaced interview shared by ApexTV, Edward’s identity was concealed with a pixelated face and distorted voice. But what he had to say was anything but subtle.

“I will tell you a story which will amaze you and you will be astonished,” he said. “I appeared to ‘place’. It was unbelievable.”

Edward described standing on “a huge wooden platform,” surrounded by buildings made entirely of wood. Then came the twist: “I realised it was the same city, Los Angeles, but underwater.”

He claims he wasn’t alone in this watery world of the future. Edward says he met a man who explained how the city ended up submerged beneath the waves. The cause? Global warming.

“That all was because of global warming. Pieces of ice in both poles saw that enough had been melted, and the world dropped under the water,” he said. “The flood happened because of too much quantity of Co2 in the atmosphere, which step by step destructed the natural shield zone.”

Predictably, not everyone is buying Edward’s deep dive into the future.

Online viewers were quick to mock the interview, with one writing: “I guess in the future they haven't figured out how to get to the point.” Another joked: “I want to time travel and get the last 18 minutes of my life back.”

A Painting That Might Just Show... an iPhone?

While Edward was showing off flooded cities, art lovers were busy debating whether a woman from the 1800s was casually scrolling her iPhone a century and a half before it was invented.

The painting in question is The Expected One by Austrian artist Ferdinand George Waldmüller. It shows a young woman walking through nature, seemingly absorbed in an object she’s holding in her hands, while a young man waits for her with a flower.

The artwork, currently on display in Munich, has sparked numerous theories suggesting that the mysterious object is - of all things - an iPhone.

Peter Russell from Glasgow told Vice that he noticed the resemblance during a visit to Germany with his wife. "What strikes me most is how much a change in technology has changed the interpretation of the painting, and in a way has leveraged its entire context."

He explained: "The big change is that in 1850 or 1860, every single viewer would have identified the item that the girl is absorbed in as a hymnal or prayer book." But, as he put it: "Today, no one could fail to see the resemblance to the scene of a teenage girl absorbed in social media on their smartphone."

And the internet absolutely ran with it.

One X user declared: "This 1860 painting 'The Expected One,' painted by Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller clearly depicts a time traveling woman holding her iPhone. It's amazing what kind of inspired vision artists can have."

Another tweeted: "Time travel is real. She’s definitely holding an iPhone in this 1860 painting."

Do you think time travel is real?
