Man claims he's caught a time traveler using his shed in bizarre footage

People are flooding social media to weigh in on a video a man claims shows someone time-travelling in his shed.

I often think about if I had to have any power in the world what it would be. Being able to fly? Invisibility? Time-travel?

However, one man seemingly doesn't have to think about it, because he's been caught on camera seemingly transcending time.

Real estate investor Alec Schaal - who manages Airbnbs - took to his page earlier this week to share footage which he'd captured from his house's cameras showing a man 'coming onto [his] property to what looks like rob [his] house'.

However, something almost more alarming happened.

"I literally can't even make this up even if I wanted to make this up," he says. "It blows my mind."

Schaal's house cameras first pick the man up at the front of the house, before the cameras facing onto the backyard take over, showing the man looking 'super sus like he's being chased' wandering around the backyard before then going into Schaal's shed.

The TikToker then fast forwards the recording, with viewers being able to track it along the bottom, seeing there's 'no movement' from the shed or in the rest of the backyard.

"He never leaves the shed," Schaal explains, noting he also started talking on the camera trying to question the man as to why he was in the shed before ultimately calling the police.

Schaal says he was 'watching' the shed the whole time until the police arrived, but when the police went into the shed, twas taken aback with what they found.

According to the TikToker, police went into the shed and reportedly found no one there.

Schaal initially theorised maybe 'there's a tunnel in [his] shed' but also questioned if the man 'teleported' or is ultimately a 'time traveler'.

And in a follow-up video, things get even more strange as the backyard camera picking up a man coming out of the shed the very next day, with Schaal getting a notification someone was in his backyard.

However, the man that leaves the shed looks slightly different to the one who went in, but Schaal argues only because he looks like an older version.

"Same facial features, white hair," he says. "I don't even know what to think at this point. He literally left the same shed."

"And he looks right at the camera too," he continues.

And it's not taken long for people to flood to the post to weigh in.

One user wrote: "Thats him but older! Definitely a time traveler!"

"Honestly if he not a time traveler it's still weird that some young guy went into your shed and some old guy came out of the shed the next day," another added.

A third commented: "Can you ask him if groceries are cheaper on the other side of the shed?"

And a fourth wrote: "Time traveler before gta 6 is crazy."

So what do you think?
