This fact is a curious part of Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity, and scientists claim that time passes faster if you’re just standing a few steps higher on a staircase. Today’s article can show you some other tricks that time can pull like a real wizard, and sometimes you’ll be faced with the illusion of feeling these effects yourself.
