    This is some weird s**t...

    [​IMG]

    Before commenting on the picture, watch the video...very creepy. He slows it down frame-by-frame, normal speed, close-ups, normal distance.

    YouTube - Chaplins Time Traveler

    I'm not saying that it "is" a time traveler, I am just saying that it is incredibly strange. Also, that ain't no woman. Hands/feet way too large.

    Read the rest here:

    • Fake footage of a recreation filtered to look authentic


    • Real footage of a crazy person talking into a bar of soap


    • There is nothing in her/his hand, and he/she is scratching her ear

    I said to watch the video first. Your comment will sound stupid to you after you watch it.

    There is definately something in the hand.

    You may be right about some crazy person, but the footage is real.

    But...he was in the past...where presumably no one else had a cell phone...so who was he talking to? Not to mention at that time all phone calls were connected through an operator. And don't even get me started on the fact there were no cell phone towers, therefore he couldn't possibly have service.

    Unless he had an iPhone. Because people who own one will tell you that yes, yes you can time travel with it and still make calls.

    Comment from a Youtube user:

    The man in the video says no one at the film festival could give him an explanation. I'm guessing the people who go to the Belfast film festivals are idiots.

    Oh, and one other thing, if you have time-travel capabilities and you go to a Charlie Chaplin film...well, then frankly you have lost all right to go time-traveling in the first place.

    How could you get cell phone signal that far in the past? Verizon is the awesome.

    Can you hear me now?

    Good

    If you can time travel I would think that the reception problem wouldn't be nearly as big of a hurdle. And unless you think there is some rule that only one person is allowed to time travel they could be talking to another time traveler. Or he/she could be talking to somebody on a space ship in orbit. The possibilities are pretty much endless. Obviously the easiest explanation is just a crazy person talking into or to a small, dark, flat thing, but the arguments about reception or who is he/she talking are ridiculous.

    eh I actually think it would be more difficult to transmit radio waves through time and catch them like that. They believe it happens already, but I'm not sure harnessing that would be easier then time traveling.

    Occam's Razor.

    Those arguments about reception were only mentioned to shine a light on the absurdity of the claim.

    Just how the guy in the video says, "Well, the only explanation we have is that this is a time-traveler and that's a cell phone" Really? That's the ONLY explanation you could come up with?

    :lol:

    I don't think it will ever be possible. Besides the physics of it, you still have to deal with the human race and irresponsibility.

    As soon as something is invented or discovered we'll find a way to **** all over it and use it for evil.

    You wouldn't have to be transmitting radio waves through time. You would just have to be able to have two time travelers.

    I'm familiar with Occam's Razor. I said that I believed the most likely explanation was just a crazy person speaking into or to an object in the very post you quoted. But logically, it doesn't follow to claim that a time traveler on a phone can't be the answer b/c he wouldn't have anybody to talk to.

    thats something different then what I was thinking. Obviously they could communicate in the same time, although that to would depend on the device and the range.
