In rare instances, individuals were able to break out of the simulation on their own steam. Morpheus tells of the original “the One,” the first person to wake from the Matrix. Because they were the first, they necessarily broke out on their own.
Choosing to learn what the Matrix really is, he takes a drug (commonly called the "red pill"), which is actually a program designed to disrupt his mind's neural connection to the Matrix and make it easier for his real body to be found and awakened in the real world.
Who was the first person to free people in the Matrix?
When the Matrix was first built, there was a man born inside who had the ability to change whatever he wanted, to remake the Matrix as he saw fit. It was he who freed the first of us, taught us the truth - As long as the Matrix exists, the human race will never be free.
The Fifth One (mainly referred to just as The One at the time) was a legendary human male born inside the Matrix who somehow became powerful enough to manipulate nearly any aspect of the Matrix to his liking.
The Animatrix confirms that only two people have ever achieved self-substantiation: an Olympic track athlete named Dan Davis and a teenager known as The Kid. The Animatrix segment "World Record" revealed Dan accidentally unplugged himself from The Matrix by pushing himself beyond his physical limitations during a race.

Why are humans plugged into the Matrix?
Humans need to be in pods because that is how they used as a human battery for the machines. The pod keeps humans alive but unconscious and tethered to the Matrix, and they are also used to create human life.
Neo was the “chosen one” both figuratively and in-universe, but the way the Matrix movies deal with the idea of a predestinated hero is quite different from other popular stories like Star Wars. In The Matrix, being The One meant that Neo could perceive the Matrix simulation in a way that no other human could.
How do people have babies in the Matrix? Morpheus explains to Neo that babies are not born—they are grown. This suggests that the usual human birth cycle (in utero fertilization and growth followed by birth at term) is not being followed.
In addition to Neo's general ability to manipulate aspects of the Matrix, perhaps his most notable power is being able to dodge bullets, although being able to fly is certainly up there as well. Neo is also telekinetic in general, able to move objects with his mind.
Scaling Neo's power is easier when comparing Keanu Reeves' character to Agent Smith. Before fully awakening his potential, Neo is soundly beaten by the Agent, but overtakes the enemy program after evolving into The One.
Become your own person by shedding all of the exterior influences in your life. Take a break from social media, challenge yourself with new books and experiences, and question everything. At the same time, improve yourself in any way you can.
The answer is no, we are not living in the Matrix, and this is not a computer simulation. The easiest way to know this is to understand the incredible complexity of the known universe and its infinite interactions.
After humans blocked the machines' access to solar energy, the machines responded by enslaving humankind and harvesting their bioelectric power while keeping their minds pacified in the Matrix, a shared simulated reality modeled on the world as it was in 1999.
In the first Matrix film, Morpheus explains that Neo's "body" is a digital construct created by his mind known as a "residual self-image," rather than an actual flesh-and-blood human body.
In the real world of The Matrix, Neo is the same age as he is in the Matrix: around 37 years old. This pattern continues for The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions as, again, the two films take place around six months after the events of The Matrix.
Even with Neo growing into The One, Morpheus is able to take him on and defeat him multiple times, despite him later finding it impossible to defeat any one of the Agents he then comes up against.
Before being reborn, Smith was the perfect antithesis to Neo; where Neo freed minds, Smith took them over, adding them to his web and taking their abilities. He even gained the power of flight and proved he could do almost anything Neo could. As a result, his return in Resurrections showed him at more of an advantage.
Morpheus tells Neo in The Matrix that the machines picked 1999 because it was the peak of human civilization, when we were smug, assured we were in control of everything and celebrating our existence.
Kid takes himself out of the Matrix through faith in Neo, and essentially chooses to be Neo's closest disciple. After Neo sacrifices himself through the Deus Ex Machina to reinsert his prime code and reset the Matrix, Kid goes on to fashion E Pluribus Neo ("From Many, Neo").
The first theory is The Twins were once Agents themselves. It's known they are "Exiles" - rogue programs cast off from the mainframe. But this theory posits they were previously Agents from a much older, now defunct version of The Matrix, and they eventually went rogue and were thus cast out.
The MATRIX refers to the systems and structures in society that keep us bound to the traditional ways of living and working. These systems can include societal norms, cultural expectations, educational institutions, and corporate structures that often prioritize profit over people.
Cypher justifying his decision to betray his friends and re-enter the Matrix. Cypher (born Reagan) was a redpill assigned to the Zion hovercraft Nebuchadnezzar under the command of Morpheus.
Neo is talking (possibly metaphorically) to the machine mainframe. He's talking to the Source, to the power behind the machines, to whatever sends the Agents after him.
