Say that you suddenly wake up in the year 1875. You end up talking to someone and you want to convince them that you’re from the future. How do you do that?

I’d probably be burned for witchcraft or be shot for it, but let people listen to my mechanical heart valve.
I imagine the average person would 100% freak out over hearing it. A ticking sound? Inside a person’s heart? In a time when mechanical body parts aren’t normal or really all that existent? That’s a burning as a wizard or being shot as an overreaction.
Wait, can you please explain it further?
With that description I imagine it like a ticking clock/watch, is that accurate? How loud is it, do you hear it yourself, or is it only audible when resting an ear on your chest?
I never thought about this, but it’s fascinating.
I don’t know how exactly to describe the ticking, what to compare it to. I can always hear it, but that’s probably because it’s an internal noise for me. I cannot say exactly how loud it is to other people. One time when it was quiet enough and I was right next to my brother, many years ago, he thought he was hearing some sort of time bomb ( probably because he was playing The Godfather ), but you can hear it a lot more clearly and more easily if you stick your head to to my chest. I presume it mixes with the sound of my heartbeat.
