In terms of Fortean experiences, these are sometimes called timeslips, and there's plenty of them documented, however that encounter in Versailles is the one that usually gets rolled out. There's been a few cases of forward-slips, definitely looking forward to getting my hands on a hover-car is things like this are to be believed. https://forums.forteana.org/index.php?threads/time-or-dimensional-slips.13755/ https://forums.forteana.org/index.php?threads/time-or-dimens...

  I've heard about those, where people notice things going very silent before a mundane but out of place scene unfolds before them. Wing Commander V. Goddard claimed to have spotted a Royal airforce base several years into the future, noticing mundane, but ultimately true details like the changed color of the aircraft mechanics overalls. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/fascinating-story-time-travel-scotland-12024127 https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/fascinating...

The only remotely paranormal experience I ever had was when I was in the Pyrenees mountains in France. It was the middle of the night and I sat alone between large rusty metal structures, that had been airlifted down from an old abandoned mine higher up. It felt historically significant to me and being young and stupid, I decided it might be an interesting experiment to "open my mind" to the material. Not that I had any idea what that entailed. I just sat there and let my mind drift, while consciously disabling anything that felt like a firewall on my thoughts. Suddenly I got jolted into the far too real experience of a mine elevator cable snapping and men screaming as it went down. In fact, I felt like I was one of them, screaming along with them, fully experiencing the sensation of immediate life threatening panic. It was completely unexpected and quite terrifying. I jumped up and ran out of that field, only calming down when I was far away from that place. I would not qualify it as an actual trip to the past. More as an example of what kind of things the human brain can create when given free range. But I won't completely dismiss the possibility of material holding on to some form of memory, mostly because of how vivid and unexpectedly intense this experience was.

Essentially the premise of the quite entertaining UK TV series 'Goodnight Sweetheart' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodnight_Sweetheart_(TV_series) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodnight_Sweetheart_(TV_serie...). I just learned two new words (Fortean and timeslips) to describe the phenomenon. (Obligatory xkcd https://xkcd.com/1053/ https://xkcd.com/1053/)
