By time anomaly I mean had time seemingly accelerate or slow down significantly. No, not time speeding up when you're having fun sorta thing. Something akin to what David and his friend report where there is a measurable distance covered and different clocks involved etc.

For those having missing time, I made a separate category/answer.
 
almost always back in my Ouija board days....hours would go by in minutes. I rarely have that anymore unless I'm in an altered state (semi-asleep, meditating), or...at work! lol!
 
Time went reaaal slow when I was in school. Summer vacation always went too fast. Oh, doctors offices and the dmv has slowed down time I'm convinced.
 
I have had several time anomalies. My two witnesses of two different events were a very drunk man at a club and a guy with a fake name at a UFO conference!
 
Have you ever experienced the same brief moment multiple times in a row? I call it "three-timing." I've had it a few times and I know at least one other person who has. It's like everything I am experiencing is recorded on a disc with an occasional scratch that skips.

Yes I have had that one too and so has my boyfriend. I get's frustrating when you remember doing something and then have to do it two more times. .
 
The trippiest time this happened to me that comes to mind happened while I was driving. I was going around a very dangerous turn...several people have died from crashing off into the very deep, steeply walled ditch there...I rounded the corner, then I was approaching the corner I had just rounded...I said aloud "whoa...", then the process repeated and I said "whoa!"... a little louder the second time...then it seemed like a gear caught and reality started rolling as you would expect.

I've told these stories before, but they're possibly related to this subject. On two occasions it seemed that elements of my environment became frozen in time, but I was still in motion like normal.

The first involves my friend and I driving home from the airport. There was a huge jet plane coming in to land to our left, and as it came very close to the tree line, right in front of our eyes it just simply froze in the sky. Like a movie on pause, it was completely stationary. We both shouted out loud and confirmed that the other person was seeing what we were seeing. We continued driving along, watching the plane. It stayed stationary for around 10 seconds, I estimate. Then, like un-pausing the movie it just started moving all of a sudden and dropped behind the trees. It was a very eerie thing to watch.

The second thing was a very loud and deep sound, like a massive boom of thunder, coming from all directions at once, that went on and on and on and on. I estimate perhaps an entire minute. I was standing outside and no one was around, it was an incredibly bizarre feeling. I initially thought that maybe a bomb had been dropped somewhere in my city.

Who knows what the explanation might be. But they were interesting.

Fascinating. A scenario like that could explain Davids recent story about getting from Boston to New York in 2hrs. If everything stopped about them for 2hours, and somehow they just didnt notice then it would explain the whole thing.

Brandon, after this happened, did you and your friend freak the hell out? I would have.

In addition to a "Thanks" button, there's clearly a need for a "Holy Crap Dude That's F**KED UP!" button too.

Wow. No way, never experienced that. That would turn my whole world upside down.

I've experienced deja vu.

Hi Brandon,

I didn't see your previous post so please forgive me if this has been brought up before. Is there any chance that the plane could simply have levelled off for a few hundred metres before descending and that you just happened to have pulled along side and been travelling at roughly the same speed for that period of time, giving the impression that the plane was "stuck", or did you appear to move towards/past it while it was apparently stationary in the air? Very interesting experience in any event, do you go into it in further detail in another post?

Like macavity, I would love to know more about this event. Much more:D
 
I wonder if David and his friend passed through Garden City when they time warped.

I wonder if it's that your brain freezes for a few seconds before processing what you're seeing...like your computer taking some time to load a program :confused:

I'm an artist...or, at least I like to pretend I am an artist. There is a mental state I call "being on" where my brush and the surface of the canvas is the only thing that exists within the realm of my focus. I can get into the same state, but for shorter periods of "consensus time", playing a musical instrument. In this state I have had half a day pass in what felt like no more than a few minutes...pure Slack.
And then I've watched a small spider weave a web in the cold, smelly, county drunk-tank for what seemed like an eternity...although it was only about half a day. It was like "Matrix" time, except it sucked really bad.
 
I have had more than one occasion of driving and thinking "how did I get here" where I do not recall the previous 15 to 45 minutes. Sort of like sleep driving maybe?
