Real Life Glitches in the Matrix

Everyone has experienced a glitch in the matrix at some point during their lives. Sometimes it’s as simple as déjà vu. Other times it’s a much more irregular occurrence. Here are some of the most extreme glitches in the matrix, from personal accounts to undisputable photographs, we have come across.

“We were visiting family in Nevada with my dad, and they lived out in a very dry area in a fairly good sized trailer. A couple days in, I was playing outside with my cousin, pretty much just messing around in the dirt. At some point, I look up. Right next to the house is a… field I guess? Surrounded by wire fence, probably originally for livestock. But anyway, there’s this guy standing there. This is a good 300 or more feet away, so I cannot see him clearly at all. Queue the weird. As soon as I look at this guy, I have what I can only describe as an out of body experience. My body pretty much just went into lockdown, and I was no longer seeing through my eyes. And I wasn’t just floating there or anything… I was in that man’s body. Through his eyes I could see two little shapes playing across the field, but I could just FEEL that he saw the shapes as animals. And then I realized he was holding a f***ing shotgun. After that I regained my body and blurted out “we have to go indoors,” offering no explanation to my cousin, who thought I was nuts. Still freaks me out when I think about it today because it’s the only time I’ve ever lost control of my body. It was almost like a dream but the whole thing felt like it was happening in slow motion.”

“One evening, a man and his wife returned home from dinner. When he opened the door, he saw his wife sitting at the computer doing work, which is a normal sight when he gets off of work, except for the fact that SHE WAS ENTERING THE HOUSE WITH HIM. When they went to bed, he told her that he’d unexplainably seen her sitting at the computer earlier, and she got very serious, then told him that when he opened the door, she saw herself sitting at the computer too.”

“The first happened a couple years ago. I can’t remember the occasion, but my mother and I had gone to A&W for lunch, and we were both sitting there eating our meals. We happened to be seated pretty close to the washroom doors, so I noticed everyone going in an out. First person to come out is this old man who’s kind of hobbling along. He walked past and I looked at him and went on with my meal. Not 30 seconds later, another man comes out of the bathroom, and at this point I get a little freaked out because I realize it’s the exact same person. Same limp, clothing, face, everything. A couple minutes later, the same thing happens except it’s an old woman this time. She comes out, then 30 seconds later comes right out of the bathroom again. My mom took a look at me and said ‘You look like you’ve seen a ghost.’ I just kind of stammered a bit then wrote it off as me being crazy.”
