I am a time traveler from the future. I can guarantee that John Michael Godier will keep dropping absolute bangers.
Although his releases really slow down after be becomes the co-president of the Pan-American Union.
such relief!
I wish I could have him come by once a week to my hospital bed and tell a story about the universe it's so calming. He's a gem

I hope you're right. I'm addicted.
John you have single-handedly made spooky October my favorite month.
I'm currently travelling forward through time at one second per second.
_"Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes."_
- Big Man Tyrone
Someday, from one second to the other, one youre alive and then youre dead. Forever. And nothing had mattered as everything will simply continues.. Or you had children and your genetics are passed down.. But that on itself doesnt matter a bit on any scale, if you remove biological selfishness. Brutal.
You are currently traveling forward through time at the speed of light actually. You are always traveling at the speed of light, everything does. The more you would accelerate to move through space, the less you would move through time, and vice versa.
Okay.
I'm doing it a planck at a time.
If a person could time travel backwards. What happens to all the matter and energy already occupying that space you entered into? Ignoring that you don't just materialize into the side of a mountain, even empty space isn't truly empty. The atoms that constitute you would emerge and collide with atoms (particles of all sizes) in that space. Seems like time traveler would always result in a large explosion of energy as particles instantly collide and occupy the same space with other particles. Could be the cause of big bang events for all we know. Time colliding could be the "singularity" event.
Even more problematic: The probability to find any of the particles you are made of somewhere in the universe would add up to 200%. This totally would break the Schrödinger equation that is a function of t. It simply can't have two results for the same t.
I think the simple answer is time travel is impossible, it would throw the universe off balance.
Well, I think you could hypothesize around that by arguing that you're traveling from point a to point b. You're NOT blinking out in one reality and "popping" into another. But yeah, if you literally had to "pop" into that reality in a discrete quantized way, the issues you raised would be a problem lol. It would probably set off a chain reaction akin to a supernova hyper localized to one small area and expanding outward like an atomic blast. Obviously, all this is conjecture ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
While its an assumption that there would be any kind of teleporting or popping into existence, even if you did, what would happen on a quantum scale would be what is always happening. The forces that keep atoms from touching are incredibly powerful, and the very act of teleporting would be something happening on the quantum level anyway where stuff pop in and out of existence all the time, particles can teleport and be in two places at once. As Hollywood cool as exploding atoms because the were forced to touch would be, i just don't really see that being an issue with any kind of teleportation i can imagine as being functionally real.
What if you are traveling through some kind of worm hole or portal to do the time traveling? Then you are just going for a walk 😉

I love this channel. I usually pause the video a minute in just to talk to myself about the subject topic for a good 10 minutes before I continue. The ability you have to jumpstart my brain is always fun.
A time traveler walks into a bar, but the bartender refuses to serve him.
"Why the hell not?" he asks.
"We don't serve *any* time travelers here," the bartender explains, "not since one got stinking drunk and trashed the place four years ago."
"Four years ago, you say..."
This whole concept of a civilization, even us, becoming the universes zookeeper is absolutely bone chilling. I am shook. Thank you for taking me to these thoughts.
I am gonna have to go back in time and watch this again!
So this would technically be the second time you've watched this but first from your point of view?
Fantastic video, John! Thanks a bunch!!! 😊
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
The challenge with time travel is that it’s not just time, but space. Where earth is , or any city on it, is different at a future time. So you would have to get past the magic of traveling backwards, but additionally overcome traveling distances.
Yep. That's rarely ever discussed in sci-fi depictions of time travel. I think only Dr. Who explicitly states that machine used on the show travels through time AND space to get to wherever they're going. Even then, I do wonder if backwards time travel is possible but travel through space over reasonable time frames is a hard problem that will never have a solution, making the whole idea of going back in time to a specific place completely pointless.
very true ... the funny thing about time travel... your traveling to an earlier state of the universe... and that means the earth issint where you left from... the earth moves... the entire solar system and the galaxy around it moves... so if you travels back even 24 hours... thats a massive distance problem... earth the sun the galaxy, its all zooming through space right now at super fast speeds i dont know the number but lets say hundreds of miles a second... so if you traveled back 100... 500 years into the past from your time... your going to appear in that past universe in the middle of deep space!... you better have a good ship and be able to track your position reletive to earth... thats why we dont see time travelers... assuming the tech is even possible.
Why can’t it be like when you throw a ball inside a moving car
that assumes space is absolute
@LEGObiWanKenobi I think that's because we are in an accelerated frame of reference following a curved path in time-space.
spooky october has had me pumped for WEEKS!
i dont think ill go 24hrs without watching any of your new videos as long as youre on youtube 😅
Youre the best, thank you for all the labor of love through your content!
Truly a gem
I play these on repeat in the background. More fun than listening to stupid old rock bands. :)
When I can’t sleep I put this on, close my eyes and just listen. It works really well.
YEAHHH JOHN! I knew you were a VOY fan! Love your channel. And as always, this blunt is for you.
You always post right after I get home from work, just in time for me to unwind on the couch and listen to the soothing science of John Michael Godier. Thanks for making consistent, quality videos 👍
I’ve been waiting for these October videos!!! You’re the GOAT!
Just traveled back in time to see the release of this epic video
My favourite form of 'time travel' is where you travel to an almost identical alternate universe that just happens to be X days in the past.
This would, of course, involve a lot of taste testing of alternate universes by the time traveling device until you find one that fits and even then there could be minor differences that go unnoticed.
Interesting
All the time travellers are floating in space, because they only took time into consideration, but not the movement of the earth
Yup given the expansion of the Universe a jump of just a couple of seconds forward or back would leave you gasping your last in the vacuum of space.
If you can time travel backwards in time, you can be sure as pie that they'd be able to calculate the mathematical path towards where in space and time they should be (after all, the two are sides of the same coin, forever intertwined).
If you can backwards time travel, you likely are in a ship with breathable atmosphere, no?
@@THX..1138 This concept was weaponized in the 'Strontium Dog' stories in British Sci~Fi anthology comic, 2,000AD.
Floating in space _where_? The same place in relation to _what
_? The Earth? The Sun? The center of the Milky Way? The cosmic background radiation? There is no such thing as a universal spatial coordinate system. Relative to its own frame of reference, the Earth is standing still; it is not accelerated into any direction.
I just love the food for thought your channel gives with every single video. I never just click the next recomendation, I just have to sit, smoke a cigarette and mentally digest.
Hey John thank you for another thought provoking video.

Thank you John for making this October even better and memorable
Everybody's always asking "where are the time travelers?"... never "how are the time travelers?" :^(
Since one possibility with the Fermi paradox is that we're the first, maybe there's a similar possibility with time travel. We could be on a timeline not yet modified by the appearance of time travelers from the future. Assuming aliens and time travelers will exist, combining both kinds of isolation is even less likely, but someone is guaranteed to have that experience. It could be us.
I would like to think so. There’s two sides to the story obviously. And I truly love your thinking. But, we are a species that has no clue about even staying on a different planet for over a couple days. Time travel is video right now. We are traveling to a certain path and point in time where JMG had collectively decided to take this information and put it into a concentrated form for us to gobble up. BUT we are (if there is day other things in this universe, ) are the only ones with “the keys” to access this Time Machine of a thang called videos. Even spookier is TH-cam comments. Often times these comments are never spoken outloud. They purely exist on a digital level, so they don’t? But you have stepped into my brain essentially reading my mind. And once again hood a certain key in this world to access this at any given moment. And I was all up in your thoughts I guess? Just a wild perspective on normal everyday things. I dunno.
The Book and Film " The Sound of Thunder " gave a fascinating insight into backwards time travel .The inevitable commercialisation .
And its drawbacks and consequences .
6% on RT? No thanks bro.
Time travelers who go back in time experience the Universe in read-only mode, thus solely existing as non-interacting Observers.
Now you may understand where Dark Matter comes from ;)
There is no "read-only mode", as every measurement also is an interaction.
@@NeovanGothnot in read-only mode
My big question is if you traveled into the future: what variables would determine the reality you would find yourself in? Would the random chance of landing in some specific offshoring universe be a bit like the apparent randomness of genetics received from birth? Thanks for the thought provoking uploads John!
If you travel into the future you are still travelling into OUR current universe. All you did is remove yourself from the timeline while you travelled. And you can't ever go back. So no, it is not a random universe at all.
@@HeadCannonPrimebut it would still be one possible future...
@@Ray-c1r For whoever went to that future it would be their permenant present. What made it the future would be time ticking away normally for the rest of us until the traveler returned, for him/her it would just be a few seconds but for us experiencing time normally 100 years or more could have passed.
Think of it like the traveler going into cryogenic sleep. Except its really just the rate the experience time slows down by a lot.
@kcjones9440 Did you ever notice how your vehicles clock is always slow? 😅
Been listening to you for years for some reason haven’t subscribed yet. Finally done man look forward to more of your content
I always felt that time travel is disproved by the fact that no one has rescued the lost episodes of Doctor Who.
...And cuz the same guy never won the lottery ten times in a row.
Or director’s cut of Event Horizon haha
...that we know of...
@@JooshMeooh task 2 when I invent a time machine.
Maybe they were rescued, but taken to the future to protect the present.
i found your video about alien life that you posted 6 years ago and got so excited when i saw that you're still posting
In June 2009 Stephen Hawkings invited time travelers to a party. And you guessed right, nobody came. 😄
Yeah, but that was cuz they all knew he was going to get really drunk and puke in the potato salad.
What if they didn’t come because they appear alien? It would’ve freaked us out and caused a butterfly effect.
I came. Even before I entered through the door, I saw the food was.. meh! So I left. Didn't even bother to say hi to him.
This channel is one of my favorites. It's so awesome.
If we're ever contacted by far off alien civilizations, our first response to them should be "be careful or they'll hear you" just to mess with them 😁
Underrated comment
“The call is coming from inside the house!”
And this is why people hide knives from you.
Let's hope that they have a great sense of humor, because that would be a pretty messed up way to begin the conversation 😆
Then they respond back “we are THEY”
Kicking off October right!
More spooky stuff please!!!
Scariest bit was your sign off. “In which we live.” Rather than “In which we liiiiiive. “
*shivers*
What if backwards time travelers are invisible/unable to effect the past. Like they can be there but just not cause change.
Like the Ghost of Christmas Past in A Christmas Carol.

@@shardinhand1243dude, if a civilization can develop and utilize a time machine of some sort for travel to the past, then determining how to get back to Earth from deep space would be trivial in comparison. In fact, they would probably just be able to appear in the place they know Earth’s position would be in relative to the galactic plane at that prior point in time. Personally, I don’t think it’s possible due to paradox issues with backwards time travel, but if it *is* possible, then those who achieve such technological prowess would likely be capable of truly insane feats.
@@aaronk2907 You nailed it. We already have computers that can tell you where in space the earth will be in 10 days or 10 years. Orbital projections are not that hard. Hell, the game Kerbal Space program can calculate orbital projections better than NASA could in 1965! If some alien was intelligent enough to crack time travel, galactic positioning would be literal childs play.
Read-only universe
Fun things to think about. Especially around this time of year.
How do we know time travellers haven’t gone back and changed the past? We wouldn’t ever be able to know because all we are at any given time are who we are in the present. Memories are nothing but that. If the past changes, maybe our memories change without our knowing. To us, nothing has changed but in reality everything has changed
Edit: if time travel is possible, I think the fact that we’re still here means either we’ll be the top dawgs or we haven’t been extinguished yet. Or we never simply develop enough to be a threat
Exactly that's what I was thinking if it was altered that'd just become the new past that we are taught and we'd never know it used to be any different who knows how many times it might have been changed I also thought this could be a good explanation for the grandfather paradox aswell
Duh thats why I know the mummy was Brendan Frazier not tom cruise . I had a wtf moment on this one, I asked everyone i know and they dont remember it iether . Wierd stuff like this all the time i know they're tweaking something . Youre the only one who gets it . Ty 😁👍🏻
"Memory is a mess. Life is a mess. Everyone's got memories of a holiday they couldn't have been on or a party they never went to, or met someone for the first time and felt like they've known them all their lives. Time is being rewritten all around us, every day. People think their memories are bad, but their memories are fine. The past is really like that" -- 11th Doctor

I freaking love this channel.
Time Traveler here, amused at what this video entails (I've already watched it)
You should have said something yesterday...
Oh, my Entropy!!
I propose the idea of virtual timetravel. The universe might or might not be deterministic, but the outcome of past events is definetly determined. This opens the door to "rewind" time in simulations based on the current state of the universe. With enough data and the right mathematical tools we might some day be able to "visit the past" without causing trouble to our own existence. This might sound boring to people who want to change history but archeologists, historians and biologists would kill for this.
If backwards time travel were possible, I'm under the impression that it would "create" a new parallel universe. This would avoid any paradoxes.
Pretty scary if true. Assuming near infinite possible decisions times another near infinite amount of combinations or these possible decisions would mean that the entirety of reality itself would be beyond incomprehensible on scale far larger than what we already know
I thought multiverse theory already meant that any action would result in a new universe being created, which would mean backwards time travel could never cause a paradox anyway.
That’s an interesting theory
Ah multiverse theory. If that's true then someone must've thought it a comical dick move to come back and create this one we're living through now; given the state of the modern day.
It may be the same sort of concept/dilema of copying consciousness. Like if you copy your brain into a computer is it you or just a copy. What happens to the old u can u both independently exist if its you?
I feel backwards of linear backwards time travel would be incredibly paradoxal. Like we may be able to send ourselves back to a version/space in the universe where time is earlier than your initial entry, but once there you could probably never say" return to earth and kill hitler" because of the vast distance and litteral issues of traveling space time to an exact point.
So maybe if we make it "back" to the past the descions and probability make it unlikely that the past and future even matter to us at that point.....time may be something we evolve out of.
i really really really enjoy your content - i think i will give your books a try. please keep it coming my friend
well think about it.. there’s basically an infinite amount of timelines you could travel back to. for example, i want to travel back to 1993. wouldn’t you have to choose an EXACT time in 1993? what month, what day, what hour, what minute, what second.. etc. If someone wanted to travel to our current time, they would have to choose 2023, October 3, 12:25 (time of writing this comment) AM, and whatever seconds we are at.. and then like it goes into how like there’s basically an infinite amount of numbers in between whole numbers. 1.1, 1.01, 1.001 etc.. that can be translated to microseconds, nanoseconds. So basically it’s a gamble that they choose our EXACT timeline. Odds must be so low..
I think there is a smallest unit of time.
What is the smallest unit of time possible in the universe?
What does that have to do with timelines though?
Why would they necessarily jump to an alternate timeline if they couldn't specify an instant moment in time?
its not just time you would need to travel but space since the earth is moving through space.
There isn’t an infinitesimally small fraction of a second. There IS a smallest possible time (and distance). Think about it this way… When you land on an airport after a flight, there is a scheduled time of arrival. It is not precise into infinity. Regardless of when it lands, it DOES land at some arbitrary point of time. You can reduce it as much as you want but ultimately you DO land. The only trouble is DETERMINING at which “exact” time you land. Is it 7:32:12 pm or 7:32:12.23273639 pm? … does it matter?
What an absolutely incredible start to October
Time traveler's insurance is incredibly exclusive to achieve, think about it: closing causal loopholes just because you want to experience a timeline where you strangle a baby tyrannosaurus is going to require _massive_ post editing just to close the circuit which means lots of energy which means lots of investment. Time tourism would rather occur at set incidents that don't violate observation laws.
TLDR: Time Crime and Extradimensional Cops
Lol
A really good (IMO) time travel movie nobody's ever heard of: Happy Accidents.
I don't know why time travel is so hard for people, just double tap or press the arrow keys!
"Space is littered with the corpses of countless time-travellers who forgot to account for the movement of the cosmos" - some cool quote from somewhere I'm probably butchering.
This video reminds me of my favorite Time Travel show 7 DAYS. They even had contact with alien once that found them using their star travel method as a time machine interesting. I really whish that show had lasted longer it was fun.
I remember that show, it was excellent.
Interesting
Spooky October off to a great start 😳 thanks john
I think Igor Dmitriyevich NovikovI got it right. The past cannot change because it has already factored in a time traveler's actions.
This was a good one john, really good.
Another issue with TRUE time travel is that Earth isn't stationary. Even IF time travel were possible you would also need to be transported to Earth's location at the exact time you'd like to travel to
That would imply the existence of a preferred frame of reference, through which the Earth could move with a certain velocity, but according to Relativity there is no such thing. If a time traveller would appear at another time, but in the same place, the same place in relation to _what_? The Sun? The center of the Milky Way? The cosmic microwave background? It's just another point that shows that this type of time travel most likely isn't physically possible.
Isn't that fairly easy to determine? Not trolling it's a sincere question
True time travel is completely misunderstood.
It's not the user that needs to travel backward in time, but the environment without the user.
Splendid video, John!
Maybe that’s what we are seeing in our skies… I’m leaving this comment in the past for you John to read in the future.😊
John this was an excellent video. Your idea that we may not time travelers visiting us because there are no humans in the future is very heavy.
But is also a fascinating concept. Spooky October indeed.
What is so unique about 2023 or our few decades for time travelers to come here at the present time.
Thank you, John. I think the reason is because the past doesn't exist.
Everything that exists, only exists now. Conservation of energy/mass requires nothing is left behind.
However, in the future, there will be a way for you to pseudo-travel back in time; your virtual self will be able to project itself into your own past, or any publicly available past, for a limited time. You won't ever be able to go past your own virtualisation process, or beyond when public virtual records began.
And of course, as a virtual human you'll always have the ability to suspend yourself for a time, so you can pop back into consciousness every few millennia, and catch up on what's been happening.
In addition to this, there may well be people who try to simulate the past - and that's the scary scenario, because 2023 is far too interesting to not be a target for simulation... D'OH.
Correct. The Schrödinger equation is a function of t, means for any value of t, the probability to find you somewhere in the universe always adds up to exactly 100%. That means of you would magically beam for now to yesterday at 12 pm, the probability to find you somewhere in the universe would suddenly jump to 200% yesterday at 12 pm, and jump back to 100% now. This would also mean that yesterday at 12, quantum information would suddenly pop into existence, while now it would disappear, which totally isn't allowed.
Brilliant video. Thanks
What if the time travelers don't know they're time travelers? What if they Quantum Leap but have no Ziggy?
Intense and thought provoking video. Welcome to October indeed!
The Mandela effect suggests timelines may already being manipulated but only a minority of people are aware somethings changed.
the mandela effect is just a pyschological phenomenon, nothing actually changed, you just misremember
I’m absolutely sure that in the James Bond - Moonraker (1979), when Jaws meets his new gf, she had a row of braces too. They both smiled and saw each others grills and knew they were meant for each other. That was the point of the entire scene. Now she doesn’t have the braces. I saw it in the theater and remember the braces and thinking they were perfect for each other.

This has always been my best argument against time travel, and FTL to a lesser extent, outside of the raw math.
If time travel were ever possible we should be drowning in an ever expanding glut of time travelers. We're not, therefore no time travel by us or anyone ever.
Except that one little twist where we could be so insignificant that alien time travelers have no interest in us or don't even know we exist.
@@HeadCannonPrimeThe Intergalactic Legal Code also prevents this
What if the time travellers have already influenced us and notable events on our planet were achieved through intervention? I highly doubt the average man would be allowed to participate, if technology ever did reach such feats, time travellers would be akin to astronauts and personnel involved in top secret/black project type stuff. You might get 10 per billion.
We were overrun by travellers, but then some Karen jumped back and killed the grandfather of the guy that invented time travel.
It took a few tries, but Karen finally deleted everyone who ever invented time travel...
Another great video John. Keep these thought provoking ones coming. 👍
"Where are the time travelers?" they ask, but as soon as you disclose, everyone thinks you're bonkers. But still they ask :: eye roll ::

@@shardinhand1243Not really. Space and Time are the same thing. Imagine you have a 100x100 square of space right now. Because of the expansion of the universe, as time goes by the square decreases in size(that 100x100 square takes up "less" size compared to the now bigger universe, let's say 90x90) The same way going back in time, the square of space would increase in size. Meaning if you wanted to visit that exact size 100x100 square, you would have to be in the exact same spot at exactly that time when you drew it.
The same way, if you're trying to visit an exact time, you would need to visit an exact location with it too :)
It's spooky October!! Yay!!
One thought I've had is that whenever time travel to the past is invented, it causes paradoxes that lead to that particular universe collapsing into non-existence. This assumes that there is a multiverse. So any universe where one could exist automatically cannot have backwards time travel, since all universes with backwards time travel cease to exist.
That is an interesting possibility. One possibility that I favor is that when you travel back in time, you automatically spawn a new universe, so you can never go back to your original universe once you have time travelled. This would also solve various time travel paradoxes.
Or perhaps the universe has self-correcting code built in, where it will not allow for certain actions or events that would skew the future in a significant or paradoxical way. In that scenario you could not "delete your grandfather" if you went back in time, because something would happen to prevent it : maybe a tree would fall on your head or you'd get a lighting strike, etc. and you could never complete your mission. A la "Final Destination" style.
That said, actions or events that would not impact the future significantly or create a paradox could be allowed, since not every action would have a major ripple effect in time.
interesting idea
@@johnathanmartin1504 If this was the case the time travel machine would require an amount of energy on par with the big bang. Which is literally ALL the energy.
@@SevenSixTwo2012 On the contrary. There would be exponential affects because every little thing is interconnected . Everything would change and be altered and the changes would expand outwards in time to whatever the time disturbance came into contact with at any future spacepoint in time. The disturbances might vary in intensity depending on what's affected or the nature of the contact . But any slight change can multiply exponentially certain systems directions in incalculable ways. But basically you're not going back in time unless a future AI can create some kind of ghost images with energy to become visible and make sound energy and alter the direction of matter flow slightly. The past,present, and future are interconnected according to physics ,so time is like a spider web where all spacepoints exist simultaneously. Now that i think about it it might be possible to affect the particles of the future and past by what we do in the present instants as time unfolds. Communication might be more possible than time travel by people which is more likely totally impossible for backwards time travel due to the entropic nature of matter from the big bang slowly evaporating and cooling directionally as time itself. How would we go backwards if our particles are going forwards? Decaying over time. Our very sense of time moving directionally is due to matter moving towards evaporation. We sense time this way because everything we are made from is part of the process where matter is energy according to physics and Einstien. And matter is thusly a form of concentrated energy just as sound and light are forms of energy. Or water cascading off a cliff is energy and used to generate electricity from dams. Since we are all made from energy we experience entropy through the filters of our senses. Which is imperfect but part of our evolution. It might be possible to connect to the past and send information briefly in dreams but without explanations so much through our interconnectedness of past,present,and future particles interactions. If we could do it directly into somebody's mind maybe. But at this stage of evolution our development is far and away lagging by millennia and probably alot longer than that. So we don't know what's possible or what our evolution as a species will reach. We do know we have countless roadblocks all along the way though. And any of those roadblocks could be permanent stoppers to further evolution. Problems can increase in difficulty beyond what this species can handle quite easily at any point in time. Especially with global warming. We could go extinct as a species very quickly all of a sudden at any time to to a number of potential catastrophes. Like a huge asteroid. Or a runaway environmental system being pushed to the brink of elimination. And don't let anybody convince you that governments or world leaders or the wealthiest people know what they're doing and we should simply trust them. That's complete hogwash. What's really happening is you have to obtain knowledge of THE THREE BODY PROBLEM IN PHYSICS. No one is capable of calculating the orbits of three or more bodies like the orbits of planets. The financial system was created by complete morons and propogated by the lineage of morons playing confidence games with unsuspecting babes out of the womb for many centuries of tomfoolery and trickery. Seeing that depends on how intelligent you are. And if you can't figure that out that means something that defines aspects of universal behavior. In it's entirety.
JMG video. Awesome. I can enjoy watching Beavis and Butthead travel through time by walking around a time zone sign. I can also enjoy these fantastic videos. I’m glad so many other people do too. Keep up the great content.
Very simple. Relativity is just wrong. Time cannot be an axis.
Another banger from JMG!😎🙏🏾
As planets, stars, and galaxies themselves are moving through space at enormous velocities, you would have to also move back to the place of an event as well as the moment, otherwise you would probably re-materialise in empty space light years from anywhere
No they don't, because in Relativity there is no preferred frame of reference in relation to which they could have a velocity.
This is super counterintuitive for us humans, because we are used to perceive free fall s movement relative to the ground, but _actually_ free fall is the _absence_ of acceleration, while standing still on the ground means to constantly accelerate with 1 G.
I've been waiting for a video on this topic. I'm interested to see if you mention the somewhat funny story by John Wyndham that appears in Seeds of Time.
Im gonna pretend im not baked af and missed half the video 😂 i have to rewatch it now😂😂😂
And yet we don’t have a designated “landing spot” for time travelers, even for the sake of proof of concept.
“Insert an extra photon in this particular box that everyone knows about.”
I always thought the grey Aliens were human time travelers from the future. It makes sense because they have the same body type us and look like what humans would evolve into. And they fly around checking us out at night and abducting some . Idk just a thought
I think it's more likely that stars created in the same group as our sun shared the genesis of life among themselves with panspermia and then maybe evolved later on separately, hence the humanoid form, biologists also think life didn't have enough time to develop on earth, complexity doubles every so many million years, extrapolating backwards apparently life would have needed to be closer to 12 billion years old to achieve the complexity in genetics we see today.
But then I'm convinced we have been genetically modified and altered, in their image after their likeness. We are the self replicating probes.
Why all the experiments if people truly are being abducted? Just hypothetically speaking. Have no idea if those being abducted are really are or just dreaming or having hallucinations.
Except there is zero proof of abductions or even visitation. That shit is only in movies.
John, you have one of the best shows on TH-cam.

I am a Christian that does homeless outreach. I met a guy a few years ago who claimed to be a time traveler. His story was that time travel was only possible backwards (the future hasn’t happened how can you go there), in addition you can only transmit the consciousness into the body of a genetic relative. Unknown to this guy (we’ll call him Kevin), his relative was schizophrenic. Kevin was the future guy and John was the current guy. Maybe he was telling the truth and having another mind in your body or telling cops you’re from the future would get diagnosed as a mental illness. Anyway he’s dead now. Also he spoke Latin and German with no explanation where he learned them. Sure he could be self taught. But another interesting fact. This happened in central Florida btw.
One of the best videos ever John, thank you happy Halloween 🎃👻
Damn jmg really be coming up w fire ideas 24/7
What's interesting is they could be everywhere among us, now and throughout history, changing history all the time and we wouldn't even know it. Just like when Doc and Marty go back to alternate 1985, only they are aware that the world is different, to everyone else it is just normal.
This amazing and spooky universe in which we WHAT?! Now I'm officially spooked!
gotta LOVE spooky season with JMG
Just because we haven't found something yet doesn't mean it's not there, or at the very least that it's not a possibility. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Spoopy season, yay!
Idk why we assume they’d pop out and go “HELLOOOOOOOO!!!!!!”
@11:47 perhaps because the entire universe is one incomprehensively large for event? Maybe That is why we perceive time, or the arrow of time.
great explanation!
John are you the time traveller and playing with our minds
They’re in our atmosphere flying disc like space craft & in our oceans!!
Amazing video !
It's always funny everytime I cruise back in time to Stephen Hawken's unannounced party for "time travels".
Get a slice of yellow cake, hop back into my time ship as the universe expansion stops and reverses to reconcile causality paradox.
