I teleported about 10 miles.

This may be a long explanation, but I want to make sure I convey the setting, context, atmosphere, etc. so that anyone reading this has a very detailed account of what occurred. I'll even tell you what I was thinking about as I was going through this experience just to express how aware of my surroundings I was. But before you read this post, you might read this other one first: https://nuforc.org/sighting/?id=177385

The above link is a report I submitted last year about a sighting I had in 2020. And if you read that one, you’ll see that I wasn’t sure if I had seen a UFO or if it had just been an advanced aircraft with the US Air Force. Well, I now know for sure that it was not the US Air Force.

Here’s what happened:

Friday night I had no plans so I decided to drive to a nearby small town to look at land in the area. After the sun went down, I decided I'd driven around enough, seen enough, and now that it was getting dark, it was time to go home. It was approximately 7:50pm when I pulled into a gas station. I've stopped at this gas station before and was familiar with it. I run inside, try to go to the bathroom, but it’s filthy so the store attendant lets me use the employee bathroom.

By the time I’ve finished all of this, it's maybe about 7:57pm or so when I get back to my car. The gas station sits at an intersection. One road is a highway that runs north/south and leads to my house (lets call it Highway 123), the other road runs perpendicular east/west (lets call it Highway 0). So while I'm pulling out, I decide to go down Highway 0. I plan to just drive about 2-3 miles down the road to just see what is that direction and then I’ll turn around and get back on Highway 123 and head home.

So I turn right out of the gas station heading east on Highway 0. Within 100 meters (just about the length of one side of a running track), I see an intersection sign that says Highway 123 is ahead. So I immediately think, oh that's odd, Highway 123 is directly behind me. So this must be 'Highway 123 Business' in front of me. Which was still odd to me because usually highways are only split into an 'express' route and a 'business' route in areas with a lot of population and retail/commercial space, and this area was in the middle of nowhere so there was no reason to split the highway. So I immediately knew that it was strange for me to be approaching Highway 123, even if it was the ‘business route’ of Highway 123.

About 100 meters after seeing that sign, I arrive at the intersection and there is a red stoplight. So I pause and scan the intersection for cars. There is vegetation and trees and even a natural rock formation in the center of the intersection. It looks familiar, but only because it matches the scenery and aesthetics of the area; the intersection itself surprised me because it seemed out of place. Instead of waiting for the light to turn green, I decide to just take a right on red and go south.

So I take the right and pull onto this mysterious 'Highway 123' heading south. And as soon as I do it strikes me as familiar. But not familiar as in it simply fits the aesthetic and scenery of the area, but genuinely familiar. Like I recognize specific oak tree clusters and boulders on the side of the road that I’ve been seeing since I was a child. And this is the first instance that I felt that odd, disoriented/vertigo feeling that you get once you realize you're turned around or lost. Nothing physically felt off or weird until this moment. So I drive down the mysterious Highway 123, going slow, looking around. My brain is trying to reorient me because the scenery looks familiar and my brain recognizes it, but I’m disoriented because I’m not supposed to be anywhere near this area.

After driving less than a quarter mile, I come upon a pretty, wooden, hand painted sign that says Spring Meadow (fake name). It's a subdivision I always drive by on Highway 123. So at this point I know for sure where I am because I've seen that sign a million times in my life. But the problem? That sign is 10 miles north of the gas station I just pulled out of. And not only was I 10 miles away, but I was driving south. Meaning I was essentially driving back TO the gas station, not AWAY from it.

The whole ordeal only lasted about a minute and 30 seconds, if even that long.

I pulled over at the Spring Meadow subdivision and spent about 10 minutes thinking about what occurred. I’ve heard of people having weird experiences like this and I always told myself that if it happened to me then I would check and triple check to make sure there is no reasonable explanation. So I did exactly that. I checked and re-checked my location, looked at the map, etc. Considered the timeline, retraced all my thoughts, was able to envision the highway and the intersection I had just seen. I didn't feel weird at all. I only felt disoriented when I realized I wasn't where I thought I was. But otherwise, no weird sensations, no black outs, no "loss of time", nothing like that. And nothing I could think of could explain how I had gotten to that location so quickly.

At 8:12pm I decided to call my cousin. My thought was that if I'm not thinking clearly or if I’m acting weird, she'll be able to tell that something is wrong with me. When she answered she was in the car with her daughter so we just chatted about other things. I got off the phone with her and then decided to call one of my other friends just to be sure. She answered and was doing a movie night with her family and that conversation also went fine aside her being worried something was wrong because I had called her instead of just texting like I normally do. I again decided I would wait until morning to explain to her what was going on. I didn’t want to ruin their evenings by worrying them that I was on some random highway having a mental health crisis at nighttime. So I thought it better that I wait until they know I’m somewhere safe/secure to tell them what happened.

After that I hung up the phone, got out of my car and made sure I could walk normally and was functioning normally, which I was. I walked around my car, checked it out, looked for any indication that something strange happened which of course I did not find. Then finally I decided there was nothing else to do but go home.

A couple of days later I went back to the gas station and took a right onto Highway 0 and I immediately knew that I did not drive down that road that Friday night. Almost as soon as you turn out of the gas station, the real Highway 0 immediately curves around a ravine, it has a bunch of guardrails to keep cars from falling into the ravine. On the real Highway 0 there is no sign intersection sign that says Highway 123 ahead. (But there is a sign in about the same location that lets you know you’re on Highway 0.)There is also no intersection with a rock formation in the center. On the real Highway 0, you don’t come to any intersection for over 10 miles. And finally the kicker: There isn’t even a roadway near the Spring Meadow subdivision that runs east/west. Spring Meadow is flanked by a river and a state park. A highway coming from that direction is simply not possible. I would’ve had to have driven out of the river or over the state park terrain to get onto the highway from the angle in which I did it.

Here’s a few things I know: Aliens are real. They have extremely impressive technology that functions here in our world. They are able to teleport and move undetected through our atmosphere despite the rules of physics. Human bodies can teleport and be fine afterwards. And also, something tells me aliens are well-meaning and likely don’t have the violent tendencies that humans have.

Some other thoughts: For whatever reason they wanted me to see them. If you read my first report that I linked at the beginning, I explain how it was strange that the aircraft hovered over me until he was certain I had seen him multiple times. It was this behavior that made me think it was a human rather than an alien because classic UFO sightings always have the aircraft fleeing or evading detection. But this was not the case for my situation.

I also wonder (and have a strange, intuitive feeling) that the teleportation interaction I had was him intentionally proving to me that he’s an alien. But if he wanted me to know he’s an alien, then why not just land his aircraft nearby and hop out and knock on my front door? Well, I put some thought into it, and I suspect the aliens might appear a bit monstrous and ghastly to humans. I actually think it might’ve traumatized me had he done it that way. So if you think about it, teleporting me from one location to another (instead of just abducting me and then putting me right back down where he picked me up) is a completely harmless interaction, yet it absolutely proves to me that something otherworldly is afoot, you know? Now, my last thought is why would an alien want to prove to me it exists? That I do not know. But I think I should mentally prepare myself just in case. And if this escalates any further and he does decide to fully reveal himself, I’ll of course post an update.
