【Time Traveler?】Mysterious Man: (Taps Shoulder) Look Behind You” → The Next Moment…

[1] 【Is he a Time Traveler?!】Moment a Man Prevented an Accident Captured on Film, Causing a Stir!

In Turkey, footage capturing a moment described as a true narrow escape from death has become a hot topic. Serdar Binici is a man who runs a shop in Turkey. One day, after finishing his business for the day, he was outside putting away the products displayed. At that moment, a man passing nearby tapped him on the shoulder. Serdar turned around, but the man had already left. However, the next instant… the metal gate from the bed of a nearby moving truck came flying towards Serdar! Here is the actual footage. https://youtu.be/mA7joBIJ4-E Serdar noticed the metal gate and managed to dodge it just in time. Afterward, the truck driver got out and apologized to Serdar. However, if the passing man hadn’t tapped Serdar’s shoulder, he might not have noticed the gate, potentially leading to a major accident. Speaking to the media, Serdar said, “(The man who tapped my shoulder) told me to ‘Look behind you.'” Online, discussions about this mysterious man are rampant, with comments like, “He must be a time traveler!” and “He’s an angel protecting Serdar!” While it’s natural to think it was just a coincidence, I’m surely not the only one who feels something beyond human understanding.

• [3] The timing is incredible!
• [5] It’s probably a psychic.
• [11] Isn’t he called a devil for letting him live longer than the lifespan God gave him?
• [13] It’s his dead grandpa.
• [14] The timing really is perfect.
• [18] ・If you interfere with history, the corrective force of history will return it to the original path. ・A parallel universe occurs, and multiple branched worlds exist side-by-side. ・The original history and the interfered history interact, leading to the annihilation of both. What would happen, I wonder?
• [19] A time traveler? Ridiculous. He’s just a psychic.
• [24] Didn’t something like this happen during the Fukuchiyama Line derailment? A woman rushing to get on a train was stopped by an unfamiliar old woman who told her, “Don’t get on this train.” While she was confused, she missed the train, and that train then derailed. The woman searched for the old woman on the same platform for several days but never found her.
• [25] Did he alter history?
• [27] Interesting.
• [28] A long time ago, near my house, there was an accident where a woman riding a bicycle got hit when the door of a truck passing by suddenly opened, and her arm got ripped off.
• [30] Looks like a scene from a movie.
• [31] Strange things do happen, huh?
• [38] >>1 Even if that truck’s metal gate hit him, wouldn’t it just knock him over backward? Probably wasn’t that serious, right?
• [39] Must be a Stand user.
  Stand User: Refers to beings like guardian spirits with materialized special abilities that appear in the popular Japanese manga “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure.”
• [41] Isn’t the passerby in more danger?
• [43] Time traveler: “I did it to get views.”
• [44] >>41 I thought so too.
• [47] The possibility that the man who tapped his shoulder has future sight abilities.
• [49] A time traveler? It’s a famous photo, but he’s probably just a dude whose fashion sense was about 100 years ahead of his time.

• [58] Isn’t he a Stand user? Like King Crimson or something.
• [60] It’s like Final Destination.
• [62] Looks like a movie scene, doesn’t it?
• [65] This is amazing.
• [69] If you meet your past self, you die.
• [71] I can’t trust him unless he’s wearing slightly tighter future clothes.
• [75] There are probably timelines where he failed a few times. Like, he called out, the guy stopped, and got hit. The optimal solution became a quick shoulder tap while passing by.
• [78] I’m always late for appointments, just like a time troubler.
• [79] It’s probably his descendant from the future. If that person died, his own existence would disappear, so he came to save him. I’ve seen that trope countless times in fiction.
• [85] Maybe he just tapped his shoulder thinking, “It’s dangerous to work on the roadside like that.” Isn’t it a nice story?
• [93] The camera is moving, so it’s staged.
• [95] It’s hilarious that multiple people with crazy ideas like “the camera is moving” are appearing. These foolish people probably can’t even see the mouse cursor.
• [99] The impression from the video is rather plain, not very dramatic.
• [102] Why are they filming? That’s weird.
• [103] Was World War III prevented?
• [104] Reminded me of Kintaro cutting in line for the zero-yen meal in the commercial.
  Kintaro: Refers to a character based on a Japanese folk hero who appears in a famous commercial series for a Japanese mobile phone company. Here, it refers to his action (cutting in line) in the commercial.
• [106] Probably a traveler with a time transfer device, though I don’t know for sure.
• [107] >>102 Isn’t it a security camera?
• [110] Even if this is staged, I want to maintain the mental composure to think things like, “Well, strange things happen in the world,” and “Glad he wasn’t hurt.”
• [114] >>24 Isn’t that literally her future self? Even if you become the Time Police, public servants are useless.
• [115] The timing is incredible. Like, he absolutely would have been hit if not for that exact moment.
• [116] Why did he turn the other way?
• [117] Ton ton ton ton Hino’s 2-ton.
  Ton ton ton ton Hino’s 2-ton: A famous jingle phrase from a commercial for the Japanese truck manufacturer “Hino Motors.”
• [118] This guy might have already known the metal gate was loose and just told him because his position was dangerous. But since he’s the type who struggles with communication, like us, he probably mustered the courage to tap his shoulder and say, “L-look behind…” Then, naturally, he couldn’t bring himself to talk to the driver (truck drivers = scary image), so he quickly fled the scene. As a result, what was just suspicious behavior turned into a mystery video. Also, regarding “he turned around, but the man was already gone,” maybe after tapping the shoulder, the man himself got hit squarely by the gate and fell into a manhole. The driver noticed immediately because of the sound and stopped… The story of the man who fell into the manhole going to the future due to the impact is for another time.
• [124] Reminds me of the video where an old man tells a cat that got separated from its group, “It’s that way.”
• [129] Couldn’t this possibly be the work of extraterrestrial life?
• [132] >>116 Isn’t it because he was told, “Look behind you”?
• [134] >>38 An old lady in Japan died from something like this, you know.
• [135] Maybe he just saw the accident about to happen to the man in front while walking and warned him. Not from the future, but someone with the ability to see slightly ahead.
• [136] Regarding both >>1 and >>24, they aren’t forceful, are they? They offer advice but don’t compel. That’s the feeling.
• [138] That’s a metal gate for securing truck cargo, right? If something like that hit your head, you’d probably die.
• [139] Isn’t it his future self? Their way of walking seems similar. The one who came from the future is the future self who got hit by the gate, so the moment he avoids the gate, the future changes, and it wouldn’t be strange for the future person to disappear.
• [140] >>24 How many retries do you think it took for the old woman to save her?
• [144] >>18 Time interference itself was originally factored in, so it’s not a problem. This world is just playing back a recording (play).
• [145] >>140 Maybe around the 10th time?
• [147] Was World War III averted?
• [148] >>18 The crucial point is when you save, right?
• [149] >>114 For the crime of changing the future, his future self will be pursued by the future police. Sounds like it could become a movie.
• [161] Sometimes you see child prodigies who seem like they’re already on their nth life.
• [173] Well, it’s just a coincidence, though.
• [183] Isn’t it the Grim Reaper?
• [221] >>49 Saw this a long time ago. You can tell the era by the reinforcement(?) in the center of the car’s windshield.
• [226] >>49 He looks pretty cool, actually.
• [233] There was a Doraemon story like this, wasn’t there? Nobita went back in time using the time machine to save Gian’s father, who was critically injured in an accident. Gian’s father was saved, but in exchange, Nobita got beaten up badly by Gian. It’s a story about how forcibly changing the past makes you pay a price of equivalent energy somewhere else down the line.
