i just saw myself wtf?!

I was walking down the main road, there were quite a few people and it is lined with many shops (dunno if this helps) but i was just walking and listening to my music when the world went into superfocus (i wear glasses but suddenly it felt like I could see better) AND I SAW MYSELF! It was like I was walking behind myself like I saw myself walking for what 3 seconds? then blinked and it was gone. I was just standing there like :eek: it was ME! I am 100000% sure I saw it!

What happened? Did I die or something? I didn't feel weird after - just freaked out...

forgot to mention, the people walking next to me didn't change or shift, they were in the same place as before but I was 2 meters directly ahead of myself - i was walking behind myself
God knows what kind of glasses you wear :lolwut:
That's so weird OP because I was walking down the main road, there were quite a few people and it is lined with many shops (dunno if this helps) but i was just walking and listening to my music when the world went into superfocus (i wear glasses but suddenly it felt like I could see better) AND I SAW MYSELF!

i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have :smile:
Dude, sounds like you got yourself a mirror.
What you're describing sounds like what some people experience in times of great stress or anxiety. They often say that it was as if they were watching themselves from the corner of the ceiling, looking down upon themselves, just a general 'out of body', unreal sensation, as if life were a movie, and so on. I often feel this way when walking to school and I get absorbed in my own thoughts. I think the sensation is more likely to happen if you're listening to music, and you're quite prone to day dreaming.

"only took 4 cans of Redbull..." - famous last words.

well I had a breakdown yesterday morning where i just sat at the bus stop and cried for 2 hours before going to school so i think i might be stressed. Yeah it was like a movie! Like the way it looked was like a movie - the whole scene... and I daydream a lot because i tend to get absorbed in my thoughts but not when i'm walking - only if im sitting still somewhere for a long time... weird...

thanks though :smile:

Unless you're making this up for the lols, it seems to me like you had an out-of-body-experience.
