It’s been years since this happened to me,but it still wobbles my mind whenever I think about it.

Few years back, I was watching TV with my Father at daytime. The TV was connected with a Cable so there’s two switches that were turned on.

Suddenly Electricity went off. I thought of taking a small walk and dad told me to turn off the switches. So I got up to turn off the switches and WTF? Both the TV Switches were already turned off. I got confused about what just happened? Dad got up to say “why aren’t you turning off the switches” but he also went silent to see that the switches are already off and he saw that I haven’t even stretched my hand yet to turn them off. He got confused just as me but decided to just ignore all this walked out of the room.

If there was one switch, I could say maybe I mistakenly balanced it and it got off because of this, but 2 switches turned off at same time on their own was just weird and creepy.

Like, how the hell they turned off on their own?

Later one day, I told my mom about all this, and she explained that things like this were common occurrences in our house back in the day. My mom also used to get scared by all this but my dad was always so chill about all this.
