Andrew Karlsin is a man from the future. The mystery of Andrew Carlsin - a millionaire from the future - has been revealed. He knew for sure

Time travel is a favorite plot among science fiction writers and the subject of dreams of their fans. However, there are those who claim that they actually arrived from the future - some fleeing from the special services, some in an attempt to warn humanity about the impending disaster. told the stories of the most odious guests from the future.

Soldier from 2036

In 2000, the minds of Americans were captured by the story of John Titor, who allegedly arrived from 2036. He registered on one of the resources and talked about his experience, demonstrating his time machine in between.

Titor admitted that he was a soldier who was sent back in time to deliver an IBM 5100 computer to scientists. Future programmers must fix bugs in it that will cause problems in 2038. However, Titor decided to temporarily stop in 2000 to communicate with his family, collect photographs lost in a future war and prevent the coming catastrophe - World War III.

Titor suggested learning basic firearms skills and keeping everything at the ready to “leave the house in ten minutes and never return.” He even gathered a team of volunteers ready to go with him to 2036. “I don’t set myself the goal of being believed,” Titor explained. - I’ll tell you a little secret: in the future no one will love you. We consider you a generation of lazy, self-centered and incredibly ignorant sheep. I think this should worry you more than me.”

Titor scheduled a global catastrophe for 2015. It was supposed to begin with a Russian nuclear strike on the United States, which collapsed during the 2005 civil war. The cause of the war was the conflict between Arabs and Jews. As a result, almost the entire world would have to lie in ruins: Russia and Europe would disappear from the face of the planet, and only a few military bases would remain from the United States.

Titor finally disappeared from the Internet in 2005, when one after another his predictions turned out to be false. In 2008, private investigators determined that neither John Titor nor his family existed. The only person to confirm Titor's existence was his lawyer, Larry Haber. Some fans still believe in the reality of Titor, and explain the unfulfilled predictions as a temporary paradox: since he spoke about them, they did not happen. The Habers were simply friends of the guest’s family from the future, with whom he was staying, and therefore, from their computer he accessed the Internet.

Nuclear attack on the Bitcoin rich

In 2003, the entertainment resource Weekly World News published a story about the arrest of an unusually successful economist. Andrew Carlssin allegedly made $350 million in two weeks on risky investments, investing just $800. Such an exceptional case could not fail to attract the attention of the police, who arrested the newly rich man. During interrogation, he did not reveal the fraudulent schemes, but admitted that he arrived from 2256. A source in the Securities and Exchange Commission told reporters about this.

During interrogation, Karlsin admitted that he got too carried away: he planned to invest in both successful and unsuccessful business projects, but “it was too difficult to resist the temptation,” so all of his 126 investments brought him instant profits. According to journalists, they could not find information about him until December 2002, as if Karlsin really did not exist before that.

For his release, he promised the government to tell the government where bin Laden was and to reveal the secret of the cure for AIDS, but he flatly refused to admit where the time machine was located and explain its structure, since he was very afraid that the unit would fall “into the wrong hands.” They refused to release him from prison until an unknown well-wisher paid his $1 million bail. Karlsin was released and was due to appear in court in April 2013, but disappeared on his way to the hearing.

The story was picked up by many world media: publications about Karlsin appeared in The New Yorker and The Scotsman. But most of all, the mysterious story of Andrew Carlsin surprised not newspaper readers, but employees of the FBI and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Journalists literally tortured them with requests to comment on the “time traveler.” The refusal of the intelligence services to comment on Karlsin’s case only emboldened conspiracy theorists, who were confident that the authorities were simply hiding the truth.

The entertainment resource also found its own prophet. In August 2013, a user under the nickname Luka_Magnotta wrote an appeal to Americans asking them to abandon Bitcoin. According to him, the use of cryptocurrency could lead to nuclear war, and he came from 2026 to warn humanity about this and force them to stop in time.

Luke said that in his time, the dollars familiar to people had already disappeared. After the value of Bitcoin reached a million dollars, humanity became disillusioned with other currencies and abandoned them: “Now all wealth exists only in two forms: bitcoins and land.” The population, according to him, is suffering from hunger, since all the money is concentrated in the Citadels - completely robotic fortified cities where the cryptocurrency rich live. But having money does not guarantee a comfortable life: at least every fourth Bitcoin owner is tortured to find out his password.

Politics is also not all right: most governments were destroyed, as people preferred to hide their income and stopped paying taxes. Russian hackers stole 60 percent of Africa's wealth in two days, after which a civil war began, which only the two richest countries could stop: Saudi Arabia and North Korea.

Luke claimed that he was planning a nuclear apocalypse to end the dominance of the Bitcoin rich. With the help of 20 nuclear submarines, he plans to cut all underwater Internet cables and launch missiles into densely populated areas. He concluded his story with a request to nip Bitcoin in the bud, because “he knows how it will all end.”

Magnotta’s prediction was remembered in November 2017, when Bitcoin reached the ten thousand dollar mark, as predicted by the “guest from the future.”

The future is unclear

The latest fad among self-proclaimed time travelers is the display of photographs from the future. Guests from another time prefer to do this on YouTube- ApexTV channel dedicated to paranormal phenomena. Just since the beginning of 2018, three time travelers have already shown their photographs: from the year 6000, 10,000 and 2118. All the photographs are similar in one thing: for some reason they are not clear.

An alien from the year 6000 explains the blurriness of the photo by saying that when traveling through time, they are distorted. He was lucky that the same thing did not happen to his insides: according to him, scientists have observed this too. He stated that he was born in the 20th century and participated in experiments in the 1990s, when researchers sent several people into the future, to different periods. He is forced to hide his name and face and change his voice to avoid being caught by the mysterious "they".

According to the testimony of the “guest from the future,” this is how the world will be in a hundred years.

In 40 centuries, he said, everyone will be able to teleport and move through time. But there is no need to worry about time paradoxes: the travelers will be invisible and will not be able to interfere with the course of history (he does not explain how he was able to appear in the video). The world will be ruled by artificial intelligence, devoid of emotions, which will also reduce people in size so that they take up minimal space and consume fewer resources.

A man who visited the year 10,000 explained the blurriness of the image by “changes in the electromagnetic properties of the Earth,” due to which cameras began to work differently. According to him, while studying in America in 2008, he met a professor who invited him to fly to the future. Having doubted a little, he made up his mind. According to him, in the future, grass grows everywhere, and skyscrapers are so tall that their tops cannot be seen behind the clouds. All the cars fly in the sky, and aliens walk on the earth. People also learned to fly, and the time traveler suggested that nanotechnology helps them with this. There were soft robots and holograms everywhere. He really wanted to fly into the future again, but when he came to the professor the next day, he was not at home, and the time machine had disappeared without a trace.

Having moved from 1981 to 2118, and then to 2018, Alexander Smith, that the original photo from the future was confiscated from him by the government, and he was left with only a poor quality copy. According to him, he is wanted, so he lives in hiding and hides his real name. As for the future, the robots told him that “smart aliens will come to Earth in the middle of the 21st century.” Smith called global warming the most terrible danger to humans and asked residents of 2018 to think about the environment “at least for the sake of their children and grandchildren.”

The same channel has already published several interviews with a guest from 2030 under the pseudonym Noah. He even took a lie detector test, and he passed the test with honor: when asked directly whether he was a guest from the future, he answered “yes,” and the polygraph showed that it was true.

Noah looks about 20 years old, but claims that he is twice as old and has retained the appearance of a young man thanks to a “secret medicine.” According to him, scientists learned to travel in time 15 years ago, but they hide it from the public. And only in 2028 will the government allow anyone to travel to the past or future. Then humanity will go to Mars.

According to him, by 2030, humanity will learn to treat many forms of cancer, robots will run the house, and almost everyone will have some kind of Google glasses with the same power as today's computers. Bitcoins will finally come into circulation, but traditional money will not disappear either. Due to global warming, the climate will become hotter in the United States and colder in Europe. He also said that the US President would be re-elected for a second term, but refused to provide evidence so as “not to cause a time paradox.”

The story about the mysterious Andrew Carlssin is leading both the global Internet and its Russian segment. And no wonder - the details are breathtaking. FBI agents reportedly arrested Andrew, a 44-year-old man, in New York. And they accused him of fraud on the stock exchange. Like, he used so-called insider information. That is, he entered into a criminal conspiracy with managers of companies trading shares, receiving commercial information from them, thanks to which he had major financial success. Allegedly, owning only 800 dollars, Carlsin earned as much as 350 million in two weeks. At the same time, he made 126 transactions - very risky, but in the end they turned out to be incredibly profitable. Moreover, profits, as a rule, came as a result of unexpected events in the business world - those that were impossible to predict.

DOESN'T TELL WHERE HE HID THE TIME MACHINE

The amazing luck that accompanied Andrew aroused the suspicion of the US Securities Commission (SEC). The man was arrested and demanded to hand over his accomplices.

However, he denied charges of criminal conspiracy. And he said that he worked alone. And I received information from... the future. From there he, in fact, came to us in a time machine. Specifically from the year 2256. “We all know that your era was characterized by extreme instability of the stock market,” said Karlsin. - Archival data is also available, with which it is easy to make a fortune. And it was very difficult to resist such temptation. According to Andrew, he planned to work carefully, losing periodically so that the investment did not look suspicious. But he couldn’t control his thirst for profit and got caught. In prison, Karlsin offered the investigation a deal. He promised to give up the place where bin Laden was hiding in exchange for freedom. And explain how to make a cure for AIDS. But he flatly refused to indicate the place where his time machine was hidden.
“Karlsin is lying and will be in prison until he tells the truth,” investigators said.

THE TRACES ARE LOST IN 2002

A number of Russian newspapers reported about the “time traveler” for some reason not on April 1, but a little earlier. The story was immediately picked up by Internet news portals. And the impression was created

As if it had just happened. Moreover, it has nothing to do with jokes. A small investigation showed that Carlsin first “appeared in our time” in mid-March 2003. The tabloid Weekly World News (WWN) wrote about him. Moreover, it sharpened the suspicion that the “player” could really come from the future. Quoted the words of one of the investigators. He said that, of course, he did not believe the fables about the time machine. But his attempts to find references to a man named Andrew Karlsin were unsuccessful. Like, there is no information that it existed before December 2002...

WOW JOKING...

The story's high point came after it was posted by the Yahoo news portal. It was from there that she went for a walk around the world - on thousands of sites, on blogs. No mention of the original source. And became a legend on a global scale Numerous forums

They were full of responses. Including from Wall Street brokers. Their essence: even if you have insider information, it is impossible to earn that much. This means that Karlsin is not lying that he came from the future. That is, millions of people believed that such a person existed and was actually arrested. However, there is a suspicion - on the verge of one hundred percent certainty - that WWN simply made up this whole story. In fact, he is famous for such jokes. And he doesn't have to wait until April 1 to play a prank on his readers. The tabloid has April 1 all year round. But those who believed in the reality of the “millionaire from the future” did not know about it. If only because they considered news sites to be the primary source.

THIRD CIRCLE

The story didn't end in 2003. Made a second trip around the world in 2006. Already with new details, the roots of which were lost in the wilds of the Internet. But WWN definitely no longer had anything to do with them. It was said that someone posted a million bail for Andrew.
dollars. He left prison and, naturally, disappeared. Rumor has it that he is hiding somewhere in Canada. And via email he shares some information from the future. For example, he claims that enormous oil reserves are hidden in the Canadian province of Alberta. And here it is supposedly possible to produce 300 billion barrels a day. Although with difficulty, since the oil is heavy, deep deposits of sand are saturated with it. Then, in 2006, he promised to appear to the world in 2007. But he didn't show up. Now history seems to have gone into a third circle. But with one suspicious oddity. There is no trace of Andrew Carlsin on the Weekly World News website. It's not on Yahoo News. All details remained only in copies. And this gives rise to a terrible suspicion: what if the tabloid wasn’t lying? This happened to him...

Two “guests” themselves admitted that they arrived from the future. One is under suspicion.

1. An eccentric from an old amateur photo

Private from the museum Bralorne Pioneer Museum British Columbia blew up the Internet. By early May, the number of links to it approached one and a half million. And this is just a month after the photo was discovered by inquisitive citizens.

The original photograph, which has become almost the most replicated in the world, is posted on the museum’s website as an exhibit of the virtual exhibition Their Past Lives Here (“ Their past lives here"). What is shown? The event supposedly took place in 1941 - the opening of the provincial bridge (South Fork Bridge), which was built to replace the one that was washed away by the flood. Among the others gathered there is a young man. In fact, it attracted the attention of the Internet community. With its unusual appearance. It, the community, not all, of course, but the majority, decided that this guy was clearly not from the time in which those around him were. And from the future. And his haircut, a T-shirt with a printed logo, a fashionable sweater, a portable camera and sunglasses of the 21st century model give him away. Like, there was definitely no such outfit in Canada 70 years ago.

The picture was examined by experts. Subjected to computer analysis, which, by comparing the background and the suspicious object, reveals whether Photoshop was used. No traces of “imprinting” were found. That is, the “foreign body” is genuine. And this very young man was indeed among the crowd at the time of filming. Which, according to enthusiasts, indicates only one thing: time travel is possible. And this is inspiring.

While some were speculating about what time machine the guest arrived in, from what year and, most importantly, why, others expressed doubt. Incredulous skeptics began to examine the young man with a magnifying glass, still trying to find signs of compliance with 1940.

Camera? The Kodak company, for example, was already producing quite portable models at that time - folding ones, in which the lens extended like an accordion. It looks like the “traveler” has something similar in his hands. But what exactly is impossible to see.

The sweater could have been knitted by a mother or grandmother. At that time, many people knitted. It is again difficult to evaluate the cut - how modern it really is. The entire silhouette is not visible.

Sunglasses... Of course, men 70 years ago almost didn’t wear them. And if they did wear it, it wasn’t like that. Look at the rest of the crowd - not a single person wearing sunglasses anymore. But the model itself... The “suspect” has glasses with leather pads on the arms - with triangular elements that cover his eyes from the wind and side rays. Experts assure that climbers already had similar structures in the late 30s of the last century. By the way, they are climbers and respected knitted sweaters.

An insurmountable difficulty was caused by the T-shirt - clearly cotton and with a printed emblem. No analogues were found at that time. There were only sweaters, again knitted and with emblems sewn on.

Result: Of those who saw the mysterious photo and responded on forums, approximately 60 percent believe that the guy is from the future. About 20 percent do not see anything supernatural in it. Although they admit that the suspect looks like an eccentric. The rest don't know what to believe.

2. I am from 2256

In December 2002, FBI agents arrested a 44-year-old man in New York on suspicion of fraud. Allegedly, when playing on the stock exchange, he used insider information. That is, having entered into a criminal conspiracy with managers of companies trading shares, he received commercial information from them. Thanks to which he had great financial success.

Having an “initial capital” of only $800, the suspect earned as much as $350 million in two weeks. Made 126 transactions - very risky, but in the end they turned out to be incredibly profitable. This aroused the suspicion of the US Securities Market Commission (SEC).

The arrested person identified himself Andrew Carlssin. He denied the conspiracy charges. And he said that he worked alone. And I received information from... the future. From where, in fact, he came to us in a time machine. Started from 2256.

This is the brief story of the “millionaire from the future,” which first appeared in mid-March 2003. The tabloid Weekly World News (WWN) wrote about him. And he even quoted the words of one of the researchers. He said that, of course, he did not believe the fables about the time machine. But his attempts to find references to a man named Andrew Karlsin were unsuccessful. Like, there is no information that it existed before December 2002...

The story then appeared on the Yahoo news portal. And I went for a walk through thousands of sites and blogs without mentioning the original source. Numerous forums were full of responses. Including from Wall Street brokers. Their essence was that, even with insider information, it is impossible to earn so much. This means that Karlsin is not lying that he came from the future.

Most likely, WWN simply made up this whole story. In fact, the publication is famous for such jokes. But those who believed in the reality of Andrew Carlsin did not know about it. And they considered news sites to be the primary source.

The story, by the way, continues. But WWN no ​​longer has anything to do with it. Someone else says that the arrestee was given a bail of a million dollars. He left prison and, naturally, disappeared. And now, you won’t believe it, he’s hiding in Canada - in the very province where the “guy from the future” was photographed.

And here's what's still strange: on the website Weekly World News there is no trace left of Andrew Karlsina. It's not on Yahoo News. All details remained only in copies. And this gives rise to a terrible suspicion: what if the tabloid wasn’t lying? This happened to him...

3. And I am from 2036!

Name John Titor known since November 2, 2000. Then he first appeared on Time Travel Institute- a forum for time travel enthusiasts and theorists. Logged in under the nickname TimeTravel_0. And he wrote until March 2001. Then he disappeared. John reported that in 2000 he was passing through. Stopped to see relatives on the way “home” - to 2036.

Titor identified himself as an American soldier participating in a military time travel project. He said that he was sent to 1975 for an IBM 5100 computer. They say that it was needed in the future to decipher computer codes, since it supported the APL and BASIC programming languages.

Titor's time machine is military-grade. It was first installed on a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette, then on a 1987 Jeep.

“American Soldier” sprinkled physical terms related to time travel in his posts and answered questions. And he reported on what significant things had happened in the future he had already lived. He “remembered” that the civil war began in 2004. And it ended with a world nuclear war. In 2015, Russia launched the attack and defeated everyone, including the European Union and China. Then peace came. And instead of the USA, AFI appeared - the American Federal Empire.

It seems that John has completely lost his mind. But those who believed in its “foreign” origin justified even such a mess. Like, there can be many time lines. In the one connected with John, events developed exactly as he said. We just took a different line.

And the traveler's information about the IBM 5100 turned out to be accurate. Experts say that the details about this car that Titor reported in 2000 became known only in 2007. This strengthens the position of the “soldier”. What ruins it is that he recklessly said that in 2036 cameras would not be digital, but film.

Sources at the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) confirmed to Yahoo Weekly World News that 44-year-old Andrew Carlssin gave a bizarre explanation for his strange success in the stock market after he was handcuffed and interrogated. “We don’t believe this guy’s story—he’s either just a lunatic or a pathological liar,” said one SEC specialist close to the case, speaking on condition of anonymity. (I see no reason for anonymity. Elite)

However, the fact remains that with an initial $800 investment, within two weeks Karlsin had a portfolio valued at $350 million. Every trade that this investor made increased the overall capitalization of the portfolio due to unexpected business events that cannot be foreseen with the help of simple luck. According to an anonymous source from the SEC, the only way Carlsin could trade so accurately and successfully was through illegal inside information. (Anonymous from the SEC, of ​​course, knew the only other way - to be associated with specialists generating quotes. Elite) Investigators are determined - “Karlsin will sit in a prison cell until he agrees to reveal all his cards.” (Please pay attention to the fundamental point. As long as you drain your deposit from your broker, everything is fine and no one bothers you. And if suddenly you made a long series of successful transactions, then your broker not only takes your money away from you, but also imprisons You are sent to prison and tortured until you give up all the secrets! You automatically become a thief who knows insider information and must prove that you are not a camel.

The past few years of decline in the US stock market have left many investors crying in despair over their half-empty beer mugs. And Karlsin came to the attention of Wall Street watchdogs when he made 126 high-risk trades in a row and ended up winning every time. “When the shares of a company rose in price due to a merger or technological breakthrough, which in any case implied the secrecy of the reason, Mr. Karlsin inexplicably knew about it in advance,” the representatives of the investigation claim. When they began interrogating the strange investor, they got even more than they expected: a stunning four-hour confession.

According to Karlsin, he traveled back in time from a future more than 200 years away from our era. “The knowledge that your era saw the worst stock market decline is common knowledge here, and anyone, armed with information on selected stocks, can make a fortune from it,” says Karlsin, “though the temptation is difficult to resist. I planned to look natural, you know, lose a little here and there so that my investments don’t look so suspiciously brilliant, but I couldn’t resist and got caught.”

Elite. Now what really happened? We saw part of the invisible struggle between specialists (market makers) and their clients.

The fact is that some clients of specialists (marketers of market makers) sometimes stop paying money for quotes and do not even display their total position to them. The specialists are not fools, and they sell data on future quotes to some traders they know. What happens next? The trader wins against his DC - marketer, and he, seeing losses, begins to either withdraw the total position to a specialist, or takes money from his successful trader. This is the game.

Of course there is another explanation. The specialist could have used a low-quality random number generator, and Andrew Karlsin simply approached the matter like a cryptanalyst and reconstructed the sequence of ticks. In fact, creating true random numbers in a computer system is a big problem. Many Web casinos got burned by this. A computer usually uses a pseudo-random number generator - however, after a certain period in such a generator, the numbers begin to repeat, and this can and should be used. Of course, even on the stock exchange, the specialists who set prices are different. Some are literate, some not so much. So the “guest from the future” may have taken advantage of the specialist’s illiteracy. Or directly bought future quotes from him.
