Hi all, this story takes place in my buddy’s living room. For context the downstairs of his house is a large square intersecting at the living room. Wraps around through his kitchen and laundry room. His bedroom is directly behind the laundry room.

“James” needs something from his bedroom and gets up to get it. Realistically this would normally be a 20-30 second trip. He leaves thru the side exit and appears instantaneously with what he needed from his bedroom at the other exit. Now I would normally chalk this up to being distracted or just a distortion of how long he was really gone for if not for our other friend sitting directly across from me. “Sarah” is the first to speak, dumbfounded she asks how he possibly just did that?

James is very obviously confused and has no idea what we are talking about but we both witnessed him basically teleport from one side of the house to the other. We timed him sprinting full speed, I looked for trap doors, a functional teleporter, we exhausted all options and there wasn’t one. We had both seen our friend materialize in an instant. He left through the exit and then he was just through the other exit the next instant. Very cool looking back on, when asked about it now he just says we are both crazy but we know. I’d dissect him if possible to see he’s not an alien or some otherworldly being but that’s not kosher.
