Watch: Security Camera Captures Time Traveler in Florida Backyard?

By Tim Binnall

A Florida homeowner believes that a security camera watching over his Airbnb rental property captured footage of a mysterious individual using his backyard shed to travel through time. The rather fantastic tale reportedly came to light on Monday when Alex Schaal took to TikTok to recount the eerie occurrence. He explained that weirdness began when the security system alerted him to an intruder on the property, which is five hours from where he lives. When Schaal checked the live feed, he saw a man wandering through the backyard and initially suspected that the stranger planned to "rob my house." However, the situation quickly took a strange turn that ultimately left the homeowner scratching his head. 

Shortly after venturing into the backyard, the peculiar interloper enters a shed on the property and seemingly never emerges. When Schaal attempts to speak to the man through the security system, he receives no answer, which leads him to call the police. Cops subsequently arrive on the scene to investigate the situation, but find that there is no one in the shed, leaving Schaal to wonder what became of the stranger. The incident became all the more bewildering the following day, when the security system picked up yet another mysterious man emerging from the backyard shed. 

In this instance, seen below, the individual appears to be an aged version of the original trespasser from Schaal's first video, leading him to surmise that the security system had caught a time traveler in action. The homeowner's tale and his two videos have since gone viral with many viewers agreeing with his assessment. That said, not everyone is convinced that the tale is on the level as more skeptical observers suggest that the story is simply a well-crafted hoax on Schaal's part.
