Which is more likely?<p>That lie detectors can be fooled, or that time travel is possible?<p>8973? Sounds like it might be from a 1973 story with 7000 years addded, this seems a bit mundane an extrapolation for 7000 years in the future anyway. If it can be comprehended, or put into words it&#x27;ll be a huge let down.

This headline is tabloid nonsense. Lie detectors do not detect lies[1].<p>Even if they did, an insane, delusional person telling this story could pass one because they wouldn&#x27;t believe they were lying.<p>1. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.apa.org&#x2F;research&#x2F;action&#x2F;polygraph.aspx" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.apa.org&#x2F;research&#x2F;action&#x2F;polygraph.aspx</a>
