THE ALBUM FROM ANOTHER UNIVERSE

There's been a new buzz that's been spreading around the internet lately which made it the talk of the town not only among Beatles fans but of netizens alike.A man who hid his real name under the pseudonym James Richards claims that he traveled into another dimension parallel to our own world and discovered that the Beatles never broke up[at least in that realm] and are all alive and well.Richards even claimed that the fab four continued to release new albums the way the Stones did in our world.

Richards proceeded with the story about him chasing his dog around September 9.2009 when he tripped into a rabbit hole and hit his head on a rock that knocked him unconscious.He then claimed that he woke up in a room with a machine he had never seen before and  a man who introduced himself as Jonas said that he had brought him to his world to help him.Richards claimed that he had a fine conversation with the strange man that they started talking about the things that they both like and that includes the Beatles which astonishingly mentioned here before never broke up and carried on in the decades releasing more albums.

Richards claimed that he saw all the albums including Sgt Pepper which,according to him,has a slightly different cover.It was never mentioned how he got back to our dimension but he managed to bring a 'proof' of the said album to our world.According to the claim,the strange man Jonas told him that he would bring nothing from that world when he goes back.So Richards managed to steal a small cassette tape with the claimed 'album' which he brought back to our world.He even uploaded the strange album to his own website for people to hear.

SKEPTICISM

Well we can't really argue the fact that a lot of strange things do happen including several phenomena that just cannot be explained even by science itself.But still we cannot remove the possibility of it being a hoax considering that he had managed to bring back a cassette of the said album with the songs handwritten on the sleeve.Shouldn't it be an album cover itself with at least a photo of the fab four on what they might have looked like in the present day,considering that John Lennon was never shot and George Harrison didn't die of cancer.Or perhaps he could've brought back a vinyl or a CD which is more likely if that other world was more technically advance than ours.Anyway, a cassette is still more practical over the fact that it is easy to hide in one's pocket but shouldn't be an album cover be present instead of a recorded cassette? A lot of questions still lies on the credibility of the said claim though but we still can't argue that it could have happened after all.


The said album has also been uploaded on youtube which I included here for you guys to listen.You be the judge,is a parallel universe with our own doppelgangers ever existed? Or is this another hoax by a person who is seeking attention?
