A viral video showing a mysterious hijab-clad Muslim woman at the JFK Airport who carried the passport of an allegedly uncharted country called Torenza birth wild conspiracy theories on the internet and even as the clip was later debunked as an AI-generated hoax preposterous claims continue to surface about the origins of the mystery woman and her fictional homeland. One such recent claim which has reignited interest in the Torenza passport woman story paints Torenza as a lost civilization that flourished over 2000 years ago somehow vanished into a parallel dimension but resurfaced in the modern era in 1954. Did Torenza resurface in 1954? According to viral social media posts the Torenza woman came from a real country named Torenza an ancient civilization that existed before Jesus Christ but was somehow lost to time akin to other legendary mythical civilizations like Atlantis and Lemuria. The crazy theory claims that in 1954 Torenza resurfaced in our dimension after more than 2000 years and there is evidence that proves its existence as a real country. However the year cited by the so-called believers of the Torenza myth gives away the whole game as the hoax seems directly inspired by an older urban legend called Man from Taured where a mysterious man claiming to be from a non-existent country called Taured arrived at the Tokyo airport in 1954 before vanishing without any trace. Both stories bear striking similarities including the a mysterious figure from an uncharted country and its believed that the Torenza hoax is a sort of modern retelling of the Man from Taured myth this aided by cutting-edge AI technology. Is there evidence of Torenza? Many who believe in the Torenza hoax cite the alleged discovery of ancient stone tablets dating back to 200 B.C as evidence of their claim. According to them the tablets which date back to 200 B.C have been unearthed by archaeologists which show that Torenza flourished in ancient times. One of the sources quoted in such posts is a website called Explorer World which claims that Torenza was once a thriving technologically advanced kingdom that had trade ties with ancient Rome but was somehow lost to history. Other theories added a tinge of sci-fi to the Torenza lost civilization claim asserting that the alleged lost kingdom existed in a parallel universe and had resurfaced twice during the modern age in 1954 and again in 2025. Torenza a lost civilization? The alleged discovery of the above mentioned ancient stone tablets has garnered many believers who cite so-called archeological evidence as definitive proof of Torenza. They argue that ancient empires like Troy and Hittites were once considered myths until archaeology proved otherwise asserting that Torenza is a similar case and its existence will be proven once archaeological proof is unearthed. However experts have pointed out that no credible historical or archaeological evidence of Torenza is found anywhere in history. According to reputed historians and archaeologists there is no peer-reviewed research excavation reports or verified artifacts that mention Torenza confirming that its nothing more than a modern internet hoax akin to Lemuria Atlantis and such. Further the claims about Torenza being mentioned on ancient stone tablets has also been debunked as there is no record such artifacts being found studied or displayed in any reputable museum anywhere in the world. Additionally there is no reference of any kingdom or place named Torenza in Roman trade records ancient maps or historical texts from that period. How Torenza myth originated? The myth stems from a viral video that surfaced earlier this month showing a hijab-clad Muslim woman arriving at the JFK Airport carrying the passport of a supposedly uncharted country called Torenza. The video was later debunked as an AI-generated hoax but despite the debunking it sparked wild conspiracies on social media ranging from parallel universes and government cover-ups. This old woman she came to America airport according to her passport her country on the passport doesnt exist she came from Torenza please who knows This country? pic.twitter.com/RcSnDx6Urj — Nafisat ✨ (@Nafisat__121) October 12 2025 One conspiracy theory claimed to reveal the Torenza womans origins citing alleged leaked Pentagon documents according to which she was an interdimensional traveler. The purported documents claimed that the woman was was part of a failed biogenetic experiment which aimed to test subjects who could survive travel between parallel dimensions. Where is Torenza? Nowhere after the video went viral fact checkers confirmed that it was AI-generated and JFK airport has no records of such a passenger or incident. Digital forensics experts pointed out multiple signs of AI manipulation in the altered video such as unnatural facial movements inconsistent lighting and blurred text on the womans Torenza passport. Additionally they also noted that background elements such as airport signage and uniforms did not match the actual layout at JFK airport. In a statement U.S. Customs and Border Protection denied any such incident stating that no credible evidence supports the existence of a country named Torenza. The Torenza hoax is reminiscent of a similar incident which took place in 1954 at the Haneda Airport in Tokyo when a man who claimed to be from a non-existent country called Taured baffled officials before mysteriously vanishing. While the Torenza passport woman hoax has sparked wild conspiracy theories on the internet from government cover-ups to parallel universes and shape-shifting aliens the reality is that the video is AI-generated and not an actual event.
