A photo taken 121 years ago has sparked an internet conspiracy theory. Are you sitting down?
Climate activist Greta Thunberg is a time-traveler who landed in 2019 to save the Earth!
The picture shows three children during the Gold Rush of 1898. Shot by Eric Hegg in the Yukon territory of northwestern Canada, it is part of the University of Washington’s Special Collections archive.
Twitter was in awe of the resemblance between the girl in the image and Greta and one user wrote,
“So ‘Greta Thunberg’ is in a photo from 120 years ago, and it’s my new favourite conspiracy. Greta’s a time traveller, from the future, and she’s here to save us.”
Well, actually this explains a lot. (Does it?)
She is a time traveller 😆@GretaThunberg

To those saying ‘How can she be in the past if she’s from the future?!?’ Obviously, as a time traveller, she can travel to ANY time period. She obviously tried to go back 120 years, didn’t work, and now she’s here. Obviously! 🙄

Maybe she is from the future who was sent back in time to key moments in history to stop climate change 🤯😂 https://t.co/FH0TFlCvKm

It is safe to say that @GretaThunberg must have used a solor-powered time machine to time travel. https://t.co/G8kl3Hms1o

Please Mr Spielberg buy rights to make the #GretaThunberg time travel movie we’re waiting for.

120-year-old photo sparks theories that climate activist & environmental heroine, @GretaThunberg , is, in fact, a ‘time-travel’ who has traveled thru time to save our planet! Wishing her all the best and success in her mission to save the Earth. We can use the help we can get! https://t.co/YCJ35l4irh
