Back To The Future predicted 9/11

Question

When Doc Brown and Marty meet in the parking lot you can see a sign that says "Twin Pines Mall". Later, after altering the future, the parking lot sign reads "Lone Pines Mall". Could Micheal J Fox have something to do with 9/11? Maybe the guilt of the event caused his Parkinsons disease.

Answer 1

The claim that Micheal J Fox is involved with the 9/11 terrorist attack could most likely be traced back to the conspiracy theory about Back to the Future predicting 9/11. The theory is believed to have started from a youtube video posted in 2015 called "BACK TO THE FUTURE predicts 9/11. The claim that Micheal Fox was involved cannot be proven, and is just speculation due to Synchromysticism as listed in the original video. Additionally it is highly unlikely that Fox being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease is related, as Parkinson's is believed to be related to, "a combination of genetic and environmental factors, such as exposure to toxins"(National Institute on Aging, 2022).

Answer 2

No, Michael J. Fox did not have any involvement in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. That has been traced back to the terrorist group al-Qaeda, which Michael J. Fox has no involvement with, since the group is largely Islamic and has roots in the Middle East. While it is true that the "Lone Pine Mall" incident did mimic the events of 9/11, it can't be automatically assumed that because it was mimicked in a movie, that the actors had inside information about 9/11. In recent years, Fox has actually participated in 9/11 memorial fundraising events in which he raises money for Parkinson's disease.

Answer 3

The source of "Back to the Future predicting 9/11" goes back to a 9 year old satirical YouTube video by YouTuber "Barely Human". There is nothing in this video that "predicts" the September 11th terrorist attack on the twin towers in New York City. The only parallel that even closely ties the event of Marty McFly being at the Twin Pines Mall and the attack is the statement that there are "muslim terrorists" attacking Doc Brown. Also, Parkinson's disease cannot be onset due to lying. Stress could be a factor in Parkinson's disease, but the symptoms are different case to case.

Answer 4

The claim that Back to the Future predicted 9/11 or that Michael J. Fox has anything to do with it is false and an entirely baseless conspiracy theory. The movie was released in 1985, which is sixteen years before the attacks. There is no plausible evidence linking any aspects of the film to the events. In the film, after Marty McFly travels back in time and knocks down one of two pine trees, the "Twin Pines Mall" becomes the "Lone Pine Mall". Its' a detail symbolizing the butterfly effect, not an obscure reference to 9/11. Additionally, proposing that Fox had anything to do with 9/11 or that the guilt from something like that caused his Parkinson's disease is factually incorrect.

Answer 5

The claim that Micheal J Fox had something to do with 9/11 is completely false. The "prediction" of 9/11 is a complete conspiracy theory. There were Youtube videos made about it but all of them ending up just being theories made by confused people. A lot of this falls under "true nature of coincidence."

Answer 6

Stating that the Back To The Future movie predicted 9/11 is extremely misleading and exaggerated. On IMBd it states that this conspiracy theory is backed up by fans themselves. There are multiple fan groups that can publish any statements online without backing them up with evidence. This claim is simply a series of coincidences that happen to align with the 9/11 terrorist attacks. There are also videos on Youtube that have been published in the past where regular civilians try to break down this conspiracy theory. Also the theory that his Parkinson's Disease was caused by his guilt is entirely false. Parkinson's Disease is caused by genetics and risk increases with age. By providing a credible source for this comment it would help people have a more educated conversation on this topic to find the real truth.
