BACK TO THE FUTURE Predicted 9/11

Forget 'Future Day' - October 2015 is 'Awakening Day.'

By Oct. 18, 2015

As everyone is looking towards October 21, 2015 - ie, the day Marty McFly travels to in Back to the Future II - they obsess over hoverboards and self-lacing Nikes and Pepsi Perfect. But what they're missing is the bigger message, the deeper meaning, the real truth: 

Back to the Future predicted 9/11, and there's a conspiracy video to prove it. 

I don't know how much of this video is for real and how much is a joke, but I will tell you that it really blew my mind about 6 minutes in when it juxtaposed Marty from October 2015 (long way around, to be fair) with an image from Back to the Future director Robert Zemeckis' new movie, The Walk, released in October 2015: 

WHOAAAAAA. 

The video is semi-repetitive and a lot of its points are hilariously bizarre - exactly what you might find in a conspiracy video. Stuff like the way the 1955 DeLorean burning tire tracks make a 9/11 in the frame, or how the time of Marty meeting Doc at Twin Pines Mall (you can guess what they do with Twin Pines, right?) is 1:16.. 91:1 upside down. There's really good stuff about the Twin Towers on the TV in the future McFly household as well. 

Is it real? Is it parody? This video perfectly proves Poe's Law - you can't tell. And that's what makes it great. 

Watch the whole thing. It gets touchingly earnest at the end.
