On a January episode of the Onward podcast, Phillips said, "I was with my boys one time, and I was telling them I was gonna go to Waffle House...this was in Georgia, and I end up at a Waffle House like 50 miles away from where I was... they said: 'That’s not possible, you just left here a moment ago.’ But it was possible. It was real.”
There are a number of possible explanation for Phillips' story that aren't "he's nuts" or "he's lying." About 10% of people report having had an out-of-body experience, the sensation that one's consciousness has separated from their physical body. According to research published in The British Medical Journal, OBEs are often linked to a glitch in the temporo-parietal junction (TPJ), the part of the brain that integrates sensory information to orient you in space. If the TPJ is disrupted—by exhaustion, stress, or biological causes like epilepsy or migraines—a sensory "misfire" can result, where you no longer feel moored to the physical space your body occupies. It's not teleportation, but it might feel like teleportation if it happens to you.
Another possible cause: microsleep, a sudden temporary episode of sleep or drowsiness where an individual fails to respond to sensory input and becomes unconscious. Drowsy driving accounts for over 600 fatalities annually in the U.S., and could explain ending up in a ditch in front of a Baptist church with no memory of how he ended up there.
OK, but what if it was teleportation?
No one can prove a negative, but, like historical claimants John Dee, Gil Perez, Heraldo Vidal, and every other person who has ever said they teleported, there were no reliable witnesses to Phillips' improbable journeys. No one saw him blink out of existence and no one saw him appear at the Waffle House. There's no other evidence either, so I feel confident saying that Mr. Phillips is extremely unlikely to have teleported, but let's explore the possibility.
Quantum teleportation is a method of instantly transmitting information using two "entangled" particles. Measuring one particle immediately determines the state of its partner no matter where it is in space—could be a million miles away, the particle does not care. But there's a catch: You have to read the result. The data needed to complete the transfer has to be sent via a normal signal, like a radio wave or a fiber-optic cable. Since those signals are capped at the speed of light like everything else, it's not instant from our point of view.
"We'd have to have a huge number of these entangled particles to bring a human being, and have the human being be co-mingled with this collection of particles that are entangled with the ones in L.A...It's the huge number problem that gets in the way of doing it."
What, exactly, is Gregg Phillips?
That's the logistical problem. There's a larger conceptual/philosophical question to teleportation. In quantum teleportation, the original particle is destroyed to complete the transfer. The quantum state is read, transmitted, and reconstructed elsewhere, but the source is gone. So who (or what) really arrives at the Waffle House?
A Fema spokesperson responded to the controversy to CNN, saying, "This is so silly it’s barely worth acknowledging," but the question of who is actually running FEMA's disaster response is not silly, because if Gregg Phillips really did teleport, whatever is currently running FEMA's disaster response is not Gregg Phillips. A collection of atoms that look and talk like Gregg Phillips appeared at a Waffle House, while actual Gregg Phillips blinked out of existence back on the highway.
