    The strange mystery of the man from Taured



    It’s July 1954; a hot day. A man arrives at Tokyo airport in Japan. He’s of Caucasian appearance and conventional-looking. But the officials are suspicious.

    On checking his passport, they see that he hails from a country called Taured. The passport looked genuine, except for the fact that there is no such country as Taured – well, at least in our dimension.

    The man is interrogated, and asked to point out where his country supposedly exists on a map.

    He immediately points his finger towards the Principality of Andorra, but becomes angry and confused. He’s never heard of Andorra, and can’t understand why his homeland of Taured isn’t there.


    Tokyo airport

    According to him it should have been, for it had existed for more than 1,000 years!

    Customs officials found him in possession of money from several different European currencies.

    His passport had been stamped by many airports around the globe, including previous visits to Tokyo.

    Baffled, they took him to a local hotel and placed him in a room with two guards outside until they could get to the bottom of the mystery.

    The company he claimed to work for had no knowledge of him, although he had copious amounts of documentation to prove his point.



    The hotel he claimed to have a reservation for had never heard of him either.

    The company officials in Tokyo he was there to do business with? Yup, you’ve guessed it – they just shook their heads too.

    Later, when the hotel room he was held in was opened, the man had disappeared.

    The police established that he could not have escaped out of the window – the room was several floors up,


    He was never seen again, and the mystery was never solved.

    Similar happenings to the Taured mystery have occurred before. In 1851, a man wandering Frankfurt an der Oder in Germany claimed he was from a country called “Laxaria”, a state found on the continent of “Sakria”.

    Another man, who spoke a completely unrecognizable language, was caught stealing bread in Paris in 1905. He said he was from “Lizbia”, and although the man did not speak Portuguese nor recognize Portugal as his homeland on a map, the authorities assumed he meant Lisbon, the capital of Portugal.

    JUST A STORY?

    The story appeared in the book “The Directory of Possibilities”, Colin Wilson & John Grant [Corgi Paperback, 1982. ISBN: 0-552-119946].
    No one knows for certain if this was a factual account. No documents or newspaper clippings exist other than what was written by Colin Wilson and John Grant.

    In the story of ‘The Man from Taured’ we learn that an European visitor to Tokyo seems to be caught between two worlds. One of which the man’s reality seems similar to ours, except of course for the country that doesn’t exist.At least in our world.

    Taured exists in no map, yet the man carried official documentation to prove otherwise. So what really happened in that muggy Tokyo airport in 1954?
    Could the man from Taured have been a traveler caught between a wormhole? One that sent him unknowingly into our dimension. An alternate universe in which things played out entirely different. A world that lived under the control of the Axis side.

    Another explanation is that the man from Taured was telling the truth. As far as he was concerned, he came from the country of Taured. He’s always known of his country to exist, and had never heard of The Principality of Andorra before seeing it printed on the Japanese world map. As far as he was concerned, everyone had to be playing a prank on him. However we all know that Andorra clearly has existed for quite some time and that the Allies won the war. So could this man be a spy for some dark government agency sent on a mission to Japan? A brainwashed spook that was given a false identity alongside all documentation to make him believe.

    The Principality of Andorra has certainly had a long history with war and politics, so that explanation wouldn’t be such a stretch.What happened inside that Tokyo airport we may never know. One thing is for certain, strange things happen every single day.

    No one person can ever change the truth, but the truth, once learned, can and will change the person

    You must be the change you wish to see in the world when you are through changing, you are through

    It's stories like these that absolutely make me believe in alternate universes as explained by John Titor.

    I'm of the opinion that large particle accelerators are key in learning how to traverse into these parallel universes.
