[0:17] [Music] [0:18] Welcome everyone to the season premiere [0:20] of Strangely Local, a Hastings Community [0:22] TV original series. I am your host, Alec [0:26] Mat. [0:28] What if you could turn back the clock? [0:31] All of us have asked this question, but [0:33] tonight we hear from someone who claims [0:35] to have done it. Here is Mr. Andrew [0:39] Connors who says a trip to the fair made [0:42] him age in reverse. [0:45] Let's take a listen. [0:47] >> People often told me I look 10 years [0:48] younger, but since my birthday back in [0:50] January, I've noticed time is catching [0:53] up. [0:55] I woke up one morning and as I was [0:58] shaving, I noticed a few gray lines in [1:01] my beard. At first, I thought it was [1:02] just the shaving cream, but then I [1:06] washed my face and they were still [1:08] there. Thought to myself, "What now?" [1:11] Later, me and my son went to the fair. [1:14] We uh went on the ferris wheel. A few [1:17] spins in, I started feeling more [1:19] energetic, and when it stopped, I [1:22] checked my phone. I had a text from my [1:24] wife wanting a selfie. I sent it to her. [1:27] She texted back asking if I used a [1:30] filter to make myself look younger. [1:34] I was confused. Filtered. [1:37] So, I took a closer look [1:39] >> and [1:40] >> uh all of my gray hairs were gone. [1:43] >> Nice. [1:44] >> Me and the kid explored the fair more. I [1:47] felt more energy than I had in a long [1:49] time. [1:51] and I asked him if he would like to go [1:52] on the ferris wheel again. After the [1:55] second time, I noticed that my skin was [1:58] smoother now. I couldn't I couldn't [2:00] understand it, but I wasn't going to [2:03] complain about it. I won't lie, I was [2:07] compelled to go on the ride again, but [2:09] my son asked to go play some more [2:11] carnival games, so we checked a few out. [2:16] It was getting close to nighttime and we [2:19] had to go back home soon for dinner. I [2:21] asked him if he wanted to go on one more [2:23] ride. I suggested the ferris wheel again [2:26] and he he was okay with that. [2:31] The line, unlike the previous two times, [2:34] was very long. We stood there for who [2:38] knows how long. I We were getting tired. [2:42] He turned to me and asked, "Could we go [2:44] home, Dad?" He was hungry, wanted to see [2:47] his mom, and [2:50] I didn't have it in me to say no. So, we [2:52] went back to the car and headed home. [2:56] >> Respect, man. [2:57] >> When we got back, I I saw my skin didn't [3:00] look as smooth. The gray returned to my [3:03] hair, and I went along with my wife's [3:06] speculation that I edited the picture, [3:09] and that was that. [3:11] Sometimes I wonder if it was all in my [3:13] head, you know. [3:15] >> You never know. Well, thank you so much [3:18] for sharing with us and have a nice day. [3:21] >> You're welcome, Alec. Uh, thanks for [3:24] taking my call. [3:26] >> Time. What a thing. It's either your [3:29] enemy or your friends, but it all [3:32] depends on how you look at it. Thank you [3:35] everyone for tuning in to our season [3:36] premiere. We will be back next week with [3:39] more tales to astonish. Until then, [3:42] Hastings, [3:44] keep things strange.
