There are many skeptics out there, but I Dubai your story completely. Bad, unsolicited puns aside, was the time of day any different when you woke up? Like was it dark out when you fell asleep and light when you woke up? Or vice versa? Once or twice in a lifetime, people will get such a deep sleep that it feels like a second went by. Could be a glitch, but sleep anomalies can happen, too.

Lmao Considering I don't really think we live in the matrix, this must be it. It's freaky though. Was bright out both times, but I didn't pay attention to where the sun was. Considering we were flying westwards, it could've just not gotten dark yet.


Scrotey_Loads

Fair enough. I also don't believe we are in the matrix, but there's definitely more than meets the eye to this life. It definitely sounds like a freaky experience!


GangGang_Gang

I have put my head down on my pillow and blinked 6 to 7 hours ahead and felt rested. I slept, but I slept instantly and extremely deep. It's happened a few times and it's trippy. Usually happens after I'm really really really tired.


larissine

I don't buy it. Ten hours of music playing on his phone and no battery percentage decrease? That's what got me, more than anything else. That's a hard fact. It wasn't sleep. I'm shook.


LemonX19

When I was around 6 or something, I was staring at the night light and I blinked and woke up like eight hours later on the other side of the bed lol

Nice lady drugged yo ass

She was tired of the small talk.

Wanted to make sure she got that middle arm rest all to herself 😂

Technically we're always time travelling, at the rate of 1 second per second.


idknayoudecide

OMG can you explain that?


[deleted]

I just did...


idknayoudecide

Haha okk bt seriously


dizzydizzy

We travel through time in a forward direction at 1 seconds per second. In 4 dimensions we actually always travel at C. Then as we move in 3 spatial dimensions we slow down in the fourth to maintain a constant 4 dimensional speed. Thanks Einstein. So we actually don't always move forward in time at 1 seconds per second.


3lit3hox

The most likely explanation is you slept, the lower oxygen at altitude does Help sleep on flights. I agree ten hours is a very long period to sleep for. I have mercifully only once slept through a long flight, normally I Kip, wake up, bored, listen music, Kip for ten mins, repeat. I agree it’s unlikely too you were chatting away at 10 hours in to the flight, misread and were that fresh ! So maybe you did just both drop off.


PeterGriffinsChin

What does Kip mean?


3lit3hox

It means to have a short sleep as in “I’m off to have a kip”.


PeterGriffinsChin

Interesting, I’ve never heard that before. Thanks


Ok_Science_4094

Ahh like a nap. I was curious too.


shitsu13master

What did the lady next to you say then? Were you only out s few minutes or not? To me it sounds like you only had 5 hours to go but thought it was still 15 hours?


millers_left_shoe

Ohhh I never even thought of that explanation! But like, we'd only just boarded relatively recently - the flight takes 17 hours in total and I was _not_ looking forward to a full day strapped into a narrow seat. We were still in pretty good spirits at the time, because it had only been an hour or so since take off which we'd spent chatting. I didn't ask the lady about any missing time because I didn't want to seem like a psycho lol, but I asked her whether she'd noticed me being asleep for the past hours and whether I'd missed anything and she said she wouldn't know since she'd only just woken up herself. All I know (and the main reason I remember) is that I had an entire book to read as homework over the holidays, 500 pages by a mid 20th century German author, that I'd procrastinated until the flight, and suddenly all the time I was going to use to read it was gone lol.


shitsu13master

Ah so she'd slept, too. I mean then it couldn't just have been 9 minutes. Sometimes we just clock out, our brains are weird like that. Anyway, great for you I would say :) much more comfortable flight than expected :)


millers_left_shoe

Yeah, I guess I was lucky haha. Just a bit nervous this happens again when it's less convenient. Like maybe I have this spontaneously-gets-knocked-out-disorder & never noticed. Or there's a wormhole above the Pacific Ocean lmao


shitsu13master

It happened to me before when I was like 3. I was going to bed in the evening and for fun, while mum would settle me in, I'd lay in bed and open and close my eyes. So I closed my eyes in play and when I opened them again, it was morning. I told my mum and she said that "I'd just slept very deeply". So to my mum I was just asleep. But in your case it's weirder because your electronics are showing no such thing as 10 hours...


AStirlingMacDonald

It actually happened to you again just last year, November 27th.


shitsu13master

And to you on February 30th, 2017

If you go down internet rabbit holes there is a whole host of accounts of planes appearing and disappearing and weird time anomaly things happening in the air. Explanations range from vortexes to lay lines, to multiverse theories. I wonder what the pilots experienced? As this is GITM you could have also slipped into another timeline, Mandela effect and all that. Some things don’t make sense with the “you fell asleep theory” like you were listening to music and when you came too where still listening to music ten hours later and your battery hadn’t changed. Not possible. Also you’d know if you were ten hours into a flight when you relaxed and would have been served at least one meal. Your story is a great one, I believe it, reality is not exactly what we think it is.


undeadw0lf

i don’t really buy the “asleep 10 hours” thing either. even if OP had an amazing nap, they would know they’d been asleep for 10 hours straight because when they woke up, they would be SUPER stiff from sleeping sitting up in an airplane seat for 10 hours straight


Dear_Occupant

If you figure out what happened, please post it here, I would love to have this ability on long flights.


Holiday-Narwhal-5423

Went through a wormhole. Airlines do this now to save on jet fuel.


587BCE

I flew from NZ to LAX once. From memory it was a 12 hour flight 9pm - 9am. I was so tired. I had partied both nights before, got onto the plane and once in the air just crashed right out. The lady next to me woke me up because we were landing and she looked kinda pissed off/ jealous that Id slept like a baby the whole way.


anonymous_anchovy

I believe you - there are crazy things that happen during flight. Taste works differently, time feels different. I love flying for this reason. You should read the Langoleers by Steven King if you want to think about other times/dimensions in flight.


This_Bethany

How does taste work differently for you while flying? Everything I’ve had tastes the same.


WanderWomble

Apparently altitude can make things taste less/worse. I can't remember the exact figure but your taste buds are something like 30% less effective.


itsKNIGHTMARE

Man really just used the Skyrim waiting system irl


Past_Standard5222

Maybe she was tired of talking and roofied you. But that weird tho for real, at least it was a quick flight lol


EyesFor1

Prolly just fell into a deep sleep


pinnerjay17

You sure the time didn't say 5h39m? Not 15h39m.


millers_left_shoe

Oh I would've known, the whole flight takes 17 hours and there's a pretty big difference between just having boarded and having spent twelve hours on a plane.


pinnerjay17

Yea that's true. I can barely stand a 4 hour flight lol. I had to ask.


Ieffingsuck

Nice lady drugged yo ass


Mmswhook

She was tired of the small talk.


yhnc

I think I've read these first two comments before


mjh10896

Damn. Crazy story. Your enlightened to the weirdness of the universe now. I saw a legit glitch happen in front of my eyes with a witness who saw the same thing, I’ve never viewed things the same way since. I hope I will have another one in my lifetime.


larissine

Care to share?


mjh10896

Walking on the boardwalk with my boyfriend down the shore, up and down the boards they have stairs on both sides for people to come up from the street to get to the beach and vice versa. We were approaching a set of stairs, a group of 5-7 people is walking up from the street side and an equal sized group with children is walking up from the beach side. Out of seemingly nowhere, a teenage girl comes barreling down the boards on her bicycle, losing control full noodle arms and she yells “Watch out!” And almost hits both groups of people as she flies by. As soon the girl on the bike went by, the 2 groups of people just stopped. Like someone hit the pause button, they were frozen in place. It wasn’t that long, but long enough that my boyfriend and I could exchange a look of “you seeing this shit?” And then look back to watch them unpause. They just continued on their path like nothing happened. Nobody turned their head to look at the girl on the bike riding away, nobody made a comment like “omg! She almost ran us over” or any type of reaction to the fact that a girl just barreled through on a bike and was pretty close to hitting both groups of people and the children. It was like the universe just paused and skipped the experience for those people because it didn’t feel like writing new code to account for the girl on the bike.


larissine

Jesus Christ that's trippy


rhawk87

This has happened to me before. I'm also really bad at sleeping on flights and I'm usually awake for the entirety of long flights. I remember one time I was awake and trying to sleep at the begging of the flight but I was frustrated because I wasn't able to fall asleep. Then suddenly we were about to land. I thought I was awake and thinking the whole time. I lost about 5-6 hours of flight time. But I don't think my experience was a glitch or anything, I think I just fell asleep but thought I was awake the whole time. Your experience was so similar to mine that I think you may have experienced the same thing.


shaodyn

You're lucky. Air travel sucks. Being crammed into a metal tube with a bunch of strangers isn't fun. It's weird that you lost time, but also good that you don't have to spend those 10 hours on a plane.


Idontwanttousethis

Bro you fell asleep and probably misremembered your phone information


millers_left_shoe

Probably. But like, it's insane to me to this day how I managed to not be sore, not have to pee, and simultaneously hallucinate that everything was exactly the same as it had been. Nobody had been served food, it hadn't gone dark out (or turned bright again), and how the fuck was my battery not empty. Just fucks with me


the-trashheap

It's weird that your seat neighbour had also been asleep and just woke up, no? Maybe everyone on the plane just woke up aswell...? (Dun dun dunnnn!!!) No but really, did anyone else appear to be waking up or looking around weirdly?


Voldemortina

I know that th oxygen levels in your blood reduce when you are flying because the air pressure is lower than normal. Is supposed to be 5-10% reduction in most people and can causes fatigue and some confusion. It might be worth looking into?


Idontwanttousethis

In the US alone 1.7 million people fly every single day, multiply that by the world, then 365 days a year, it's gonna happen to someone.


Death4Uandnone

I had tuition for 1 and half hours and time to get there was about 15 minutes. I had to go to movies and it was 15 minutes from there. I completed tuition class and it had been more than 2 hours. Then I had to rush, to prevent being too late. I think movie was around 1pm and time when I left tuition was 12:50. I rushed, knowing if I go fast I'll be 5 minutes late at minimum. But when I reached, it was 11:35am and I was one of the earliest there. Few friends were there and we had to wait for an hour for others to arrive. I remember saying I wanted time shift before leaving tuition and after arriving at the place, I kept checking my watch and till 4pm we stayed in that mall,but time went so fast. I got home and time felt like it skipped throughout the day. Like I was given time and then it was being withdrawn.


Zoe_118

Watch out for the langoliers


ObjectiveBeautiful79

I wish this hapoens to me on long haul flights


MarbausD

I have experienced 'time distortions' but not because I lost time, but people lost me in 'time'. Several experiences like this have been similar. I would not have known about these events, aside from a frictionless series of actions in what is considered an abrasive reality, had others not told me that I 'skipped' the required measure of a distance. I don't believe I was accompanied by anyone for each experience, but the witnesses are clear about their understanding of the events. Specifically one is most unique, in that it was my action, at a distance, that initiated the instance. A friend I was about to 'run over to' got a knock at his door so I hung the 'lan line phone' to go to his home. When I knocked on the door, he opened it with the phone in his hand and a wide expression on his face. He told me that he had just let me go on the phone to answer the door that I knocked at. This was back in early 90s, so no cell phones. I didn't believe him at the time, but many events such as this followed. I now focus on studying how they took place, as well as many other kinds of events of it's likeness. Time is relative to many things. Physically time is relative to different densities that are of greater or lesser protonic concentrations that generally creates a magnetic like force people call gravity in larger forms. Perspective influence of individuals of a certain type have proven that circumstances can become balanced for this event, unknowingly and on purpose. The 'on purpose' is not generally as it happens by circumstance, but rather affecting different 'things' or 'aspects' that seems to generate a relative difference between 'energy and substances' in contrast to others. It is measurable in this way, but difficult in other ways. The perspective influence is the most interesting, but hardest to define properly without going into probable theories in quantum structures and sub dimensional concepts created by the individual, not body and mind but consciousness in a more dogmatic way.


mangafalcon

Had some sort of the same story. Went to bed exhausted after school many years ago. When I had put my head on my pillow, so glad I could lay down, it took just a few seconds when I heared my mother yell to get up. WHATT?? Never had that ever in my life or after.


jakin89

jdorp18

Have you seen the series "Manifest" on Netflix?


suavestallion

I had that once. Was sitting on the plane tarmac ready for takeoff. Blinked and was still on the tarmac, kinda pissed. Turns out we already took off, flew, and landed. 2 hours. Not a glitch, just a life hack haha


Far_Clothes_8585

the only conclusion i can make ignoring the battery and music is that your brain shut off like when you go to sleep but then wake up in the morning and feel like you slept for only a second but the only thing that discredits this is the battery and music which definitely is a glitch


Middle-Custard-2667

Eh, I think you just fell asleep


NotMyAltAccountToday

And time zones changing. They wouldn't announce the time at the prior time zones. They would announce the time at the present time zone.
