TikTok users have been baffled by a mysterious account with millions of followers, named simply ‘Someone,’ after they made a strange prediction about the date 9/15/21.
Although TikTok is best-known for its viral dances and challenges, there are also several slightly bizarre accounts that have gone viral in recent months.
Some have gone viral for creepy PSA-style horror videos, and others like Aesthetic Time Warper have made a stir with their dramatic predictions for the future. But non so far have been quite as mysterious as ‘Someone.’
‘Someone’ is an account with over 9 million followers, and notably has no profile picture or bio. Their display name is the date ‘9/15/21,’ and the account is currently set to private.
Several days before that date, people started sharing screenshots of a comment from ‘Someone’ claiming September 15 would be “the day the internet will break.” This was said to be a result of a predicted solar flare.

It’s not currently clear who is actually behind the mysterious ‘Someone.’ Many are confused about how they have managed to gain so many followers in seemingly such a short space of time, but there’s no clue to their identity on their page.
