Stranger Dimensions Proving we actually live in a b-movie since 2011
What if time travel is possible? And what if there’s already proof that people from the future have visited us, and even interacted with civilizations from our ancient past?
What follows are a series of images many claim are evidence that time travel has already occurred. Are these stories and photographs actual proof of time travel? You decide!
Evidence of time travel in Chinese tomb?
In December 2008, Chinese archaeologists allegedly removed the opening of a giant coffin within what was believed to be an undisturbed, 400-year old Si Qing tomb in Shangsi County.
As they removed the soil around the coffin, however, they were shocked and amazed to find this:
A small piece of metal shaped like a watch, with the time frozen at 10:06.
“Swiss” was engraved on the back.
If the tomb was truly undisturbed for 400 years, what could explain the existence of this modern artifact?
Time Travel Proof In Museum Photo?
The above photo was allegedly found on the Virtual Museum of Canada website, an online repository of “Canada’s rich history and culture.” It’s said to be of the reopening of the South Fork Bridge in the early 1940s in Gold Bridge, B.C., Canada.
But in the photo, something doesn’t belong.
Who is this strange individual, seemingly out of place — modern attire and all — in what would otherwise be a perfectly ordinary gathering? Is he from the future?
Woman on cell phone in 1928?
The above video contains a short clip taken from a special feature on the DVD version of Charlie Chaplin’s film, The Circus. In it, we see a relatively mundane shot from the film’s premiere at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in 1928. Two individuals walk across the screen behind a zebra.
But what’s that woman holding to her ear?
A cell phone? A pan-dimensional communication device? Is this a real time traveler?
Woman on cell phone in 1938?
More recently, some have claimed that the above video, from 1938, also captures a woman speaking on a mobile phone. The footage was apparently taken in Massachusetts, as a crowd of people exited a factory. One woman is clearly seen holding an object up to her ear, which some claim may also be a mobile phone.
You can view the original uncut footage here.
Whether this is proof of time travel or not, one thing is clear: any future time travelers must be sure not to take futuristic devices into the past.
Because someone will find it and post it on YouTube.
A Compact Disc case in the 1800s?
Allegedly, this painting was created sometime in the 1800s, and appears to be of a man holding what looks like a fancy CD box.
You can see the flap held up by the man’s thumb, but remember: The earliest form of plastic wasn’t invented until the mid-1800s, and (obviously) Compact Discs weren’t in use until the 1980s.
Perhaps it was made of glass? But what was the purpose of this strange box, and was this photo truly taken in the 1800s?
Contrary to popular believe, this is not actually a photograph, but rather a crop from a painting. Thanks go to Eddy Pengelly for the correction.
Andrew D. Basiago’s Trip To Gettysburg
This singular image is courtesy Andrew D. Basiago, who allegedly took part in DARPA’s top secret government operation Project Pegasus back in the 1970s.
The photograph is said to have been taken during one of Basiago’s temporal trips, during which he found himself at Gettysburg on the very day of Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, November 19, 1863.
Basiago is, allegedly, the young boy at center-left.
Says Basiago,
“I am the boy standing in the foreground of the image at center-left, looking to his right. My shoes were lost in the transit through the quantum plenum that took me from the plasma confinement chamber at the time lab in East Hanover, NJ in 1972 to Gettysburg, PA on the day that Abraham Lincoln gave his famous address there in 1863.”
Of course, Basiago has other stories to tell. Click here to find out why he thinks President Barack Obama traveled to Mars in the 1980s.
John Titor
Believe him or don’t, John Titor captured the imaginations of forum-goers in a way no other alleged time travelers ever could.
His story, in short, is an urban legend for the Information Age. He provided insights into the future, pictures of his machine (like the one on the left), and, hoax or not, his story was compelling.
His original fax to Art Bell, his warnings about the future (which were never likely to come true, if you follow his narrative). Sure, they were just posts on a handful of message boards, a few pictures that could have meant nothing.
But suspend your disbelief for a little while and just enjoy the story. It makes for good science fiction. And if you believe? It makes for very compelling evidence of time travel.
Rudolph Fentz
Am I supposed to believe that a man named Rudolph Fentz vanished in 1876, only to reappear 74 years later in New York City?
Maybe.
As the legend goes, Rudolph Fentz materialized on a busy New York street in 1950, only to be hit by a passing car, his mysterious temporal voyage ending in an instant.
Police investigations then led one captain on a strange journey of his own — proof that time travel is possible, and sometimes fatal.

While the Rudoplh Fentz story appears in Jack Finney’s About Time: 12 Short Stories, it has often been repeated as legitimate evidence of time travel. Many claim, without hesitation, that the Fentz story is based on factual events, and Finney was simply relaying it years later, in fictional form.
The “Real” Time Machine
Designed by Steven Gibbs in 1985, the HDR, or Hyper Dimensional Resonator, is said to allow its user to astrally travel through space and time (via naturally-occurring interdimensional vortices).
Some on the Internet claim to have successfully used the device to visit the future. Allegedly, Gibbs was given the designs/inspiration for the HDR by two aliens and/or time travelers named… Paco and Pedro.
The above image clearly highlights the machine’s “rubbing plate,” “wishing well” (into which you place your crystals, naturally), and a handful of knobs and switches. For more on this peculiar invention, head on over to The “Real” Time Machine.
A Time Portal Under The Kitchen Sink?
A Swedish man named Håkan Nordkvist claims that, in 2006, he momentarily traveled to the year 2042 and met his older self. He even snapped a photo of their (his) matching tattoos, seen above. Check out Did This Man Find A Wormhole Under His Kitchen Sink to find out more.
Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.
And there you have it. Are these images proof of time travel? Is time travel possible? Does time even exist? At the end of the day, it’s all just a bunch of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey…stuff. Best not to take it too seriously.
Leave your thoughts in the comments!
And also be sure to check out photographer Flora Borsi’s faux time travel photo gallery, which contains awesome photos like the one below.
that photo of the guy with the sunglasses is real, and he is NOT a time traveller, he was pilot and the camera and glasses he was wearing were available at the time.
The woman wasnt holding a cell phone, but on movie sets even back then they had walkie talkie type devices.
Proof of time travel will be disclosed very soon. Time travel as you perceive it is wrong. A person cannot go back and forth through time. Imagine jumping into a raging river, you are swept along the current to a distant shore. Now imagine jumping back in and trying to swim against the current to where you first jumped in, you wouldn’t be able to do it. Time travel is a one way trip, period. Various organizations in the far future have sent back people, observers if you will to study human achievements first hand. These observers are to note events, not change them. They are even forbidden to have contact one another. Their notes are hidden in preassigned areas for future pick up. Most aspects of daily life and certain events that are known of in the future are gleaned from these documents.
The people who are selected to travel back have to meet several criteria before they are chosen. They cannot be married, have children or alot of close family. They must be ordinary looking so they can blend in easier and they must have studied ancient history and the texts of the time into which they’ll be inserted. Studies include daily life, customs such as religion and even the slang used in conversations. All applicants are then rigorously tested before consideration.
Even though the screening process is very precise, mistakes are sometimes made such as a person being sent back with items that are not used in that time. Despite these mistakes the program has had overwhelmingly great success. The purpose of the program was not just to document historic events from first person accounts but more to study the daily life of past generations.
That’s a strong claim. I think some equally strong evidence is required.
@Bigbuddak:
Though I respect your opinion, I think you should reconsider: to say time travel can only occur in one direction is not an outrageous claim; to say time travel can only occur backwards is contradictory to that claim. Every single one of us is traveling forward in time at a constant rate. We are all time travelers we just have no control over it.
I am going to have to agree with mike.
Have no idea about the Chinese tomb, but the rest have been debunked ..
The woman wasn’t holding a cell-phone or even a “walkie talkie” as @gopolks thinks. It’s a hearing aid. Even those on Youtube know the story.
I hope I don’t come off as offensive here, just trying to comment on what bigbuddak was saying, though I am relatively sure he was merely trying to be silly. Backwards time travel has not conclusively shown to be viable under physics as we currently understand it. Many are of the OPINION that it is impossible but that hasn’t been shown either (though admittedly proving a negative is very hard). Forwards time travel is not only allowable by the current laws of physics but really very simple, in a way. All one has to do is go very fast. Now it is true that the speeds we are talking about are fantastically out of the reach of current technology but it is possible that eventually technology will advance to this point. Once again, though, this would allow easy forward time travel, not backwards. As it seems now, were a society to have the knowledge and technology to perform some sort of backwards time travel, they almost certainly would be capable of forward time travel, as it is a much simpler problem.
Don’t you all think maybe its a little ignorant to answer this question based off our laws of physics or to think any of us have a true idea of whether or not time travel is possible. You all right and wrong. Your right because these “hypotheses” are based on our little perceptions of what the universe is. Its all relative. All animals perceive the world in different ways so you can’t genuinely believe that the way we see and understand the world is how it actually is. Your wrong because our laws of physics only apply to our perceptions and even then, don’t apply across the universe. If they don’t apply across the universe how can see even begin to understand it? That said, if it was true we would never know about it as it would be the most protected secret in our existence as its obvious ability to cause chaos. But to think that we have any understanding of the reality of this universe and whatever is beyond it is ridiculous and ignorant, as we cant even begin to explain life, consciousness, thought, love, emotions, and instinct. If we can’t understand what these parts of our world, even though these are what makes up our world, how do you think we could understand time travel, which is solely based on a PERCEPTION of the human mind?
this is hilarious and cute if people would actually believe this, i don’t think anyone has to make another argument on this
Wibbley wobbly, timey wimey…stuff. The Doctor would be proud. Interesting ideas though. I have heard a few of these theories before.
Traveling through other dimensions is the same as traveling in our own dimension. What divides spectrums of perception (or dimensions) is not time, but pressure. Time travel is impossible! It’s true that time does slow for a craft or person in motion but this is strictly a mechanical function of pressure.
In order to travel to another dimension, one must be pressurized from the inside as well. Therefore, as a result of the pressure of other pressure spectrums of perception (or dimensions) that exists outside of our solar (3D) pressure spectrum boundary… it’s going to take an advanced technology of which our society or science has not yet discovered (but they will).
This discovery of advanced technology (or other dimensional technology) will eventually, be able to pressurize both man and or craft from the inside using the natural electron conduits that exist all around us and also, within us. Before we can pressurize a craft or a man in this way, we are going to have a computer program that understands these electron conduits; how they are structured and how the particles that are rotating and orbiting around us and through us, work; of which by the way, is also how the universe works.
This universe we live in is a machine. It works like a clock and it is always on time; we are going to have to understand how it works before we can make these new discoveries. [more…]

Why people always prefer to complicate things? If I learned something in this life, is the fact that the answer to such mysteries is always the simplest. Every man has the right to believe what he chooses to believe, but why in the world would you prefer to believe that a woman holding her hand to her ear while passing in front of a camera (which was something pretty awesome at that time), is a time traveler. Wouldn’t you say that it’s a thousand times more plausible that she was just a little shy, and she was just trying to cover her face with her purse and possibly speaking with the guy filming? Not sure if this is what exactly happened, but I strongly put this on top of the time travel theory.
Why are they hiding area 51 and not tell what are they doing in there…they surely have aliens in there and UFO’s. It’s a secret testing facility where they test airplanes prototypes. They can’t just tell everyone what they are testing because then they would attract international attention on there.
I think people always try to spice up the boring society we live in, and try to attract attention. One example would be the Nibiru planet that it’s suppose to come in December and the Anunakki that need our gold. Everyone need attention, and the best way to do it, is online, and presuming monsters/aliens/conspiracy/ufo each time a new old photo appears. The story gets every time more distorted and webmasters keep evolving this false information because it keeps the traffing going. People invented stories and even write whole books in order to make crystal skulls a real mystery and add value to them in order to sell them.
I guess I jumped off track a little, but what I mean is that we should all focus our attention to the root of all false information and stories…resources/money. Some are doing it for the attention, some for the money, and some just because the information gets so much circulated that it becomes true
Get well soon, Bigbuddak.
In my humble opinion the only way time travel is possible is thru meditation – like astral transport which is an ancient practice perfected after years of concentration by yogis and monks.
Do they reckon time travel is the same as the teleportation Andrew Basiago refers to and which he claims he and Obama did when they supposedly teleported themselves to Mars? Man has the capacity to realize amazing feats but we often don’t see that physics and mysticism are interconnected. Lol
I’m not sure if anyone will be interested but i’ve recently searched up footage of Marilyn Monroe’s funeral. Now remember her funeral took place in 1962. In the footage there appears to be a woman using a mobile phone. Something similar to “The Circus” .
Did they build cell towers in 1962 as well? Who was her service provider? I would think Verizon.
Hi, where I can see footage from the funeral of Marilyn Monroe?
Regarding the 1800s picture of plastic cd-cases.
It is a drawing, not a photograph.
Comprehensive report may be found here:
http://tt2012.com.au/PPHC-SG/smith_encounter/
Very interesting link! I’d only ever seen that image referenced as a photograph, and I guess it never occurred to me that it was actually a drawing (although, now that I look at it, it seems obvious). Thanks for the info.
Personally, I’m skeptical that time travel would be possible to a time BEFORE the invention of a time travelling device. Physics doesn’t designate any point in space as unique therefore without a device creating a logical start and stop point in space, there would be no way for a traveller to just happen to end up on earth. We’re not sitting still in space. We’re hurtling around the sun at 67,000 mph while the sun is hurtling around the galactic core at half a million mph while the galaxy is no doubt hurtling through space at an insane velocity imeasurable except in relation to other galaxies. There is no “absolute” velocity with relation to space-time so there would literally be no way to predict the EXACT spacial location of the Earth nor would it be possible to know our exact spatial location with relation to where the Earth once was. In other words, if you travel through time with something like the Delorean in Back to the Future, you’ll find yourself floating around in the vacuum of space (or whatever celestial body happens to be occupying that point in space, but most likely nothing), not at the same location on Earth at a different point in time. Even going back in time one day would leave you in a quite a predicament as we will have moved between 11.5 trillion and 15 trillion miles with relation to the galactic center and this doesn’t even take into account the (impossible to obtain) velocity of the galaxy as a whole.
One would need a time machine that stays at a fixed point in space if they actually wanted to end up on Earth. You would leave this time from it and arrive at another time as if you never left the machine. The problem here is obvious. You can’t travel to a point in time where the machine doesn’t exist whether past or future. This would make travel to a time BEFORE the invention of the machine impossible.
The most realistic scenario for time travel is the scenario proposed by Kip Thorne in which a man-sized wormhole is propelled at relativistic speeds for a round-trip to the Andromeda galaxy. One end would experience time normally (and remain in the past) while the other would return to Earth thousands of years in the future. One could step through the wormhole into the past/future, but you’ll see that this is even more restricting as you can only go back and forth a certain distance in time. That is, time will flow normally at each end of the wormhole so there would be a constant number (say 6000 years) that you would be able to travel. Not a second more or a second less.
So, that being said, I highly doubt any of these people were time travellers.
For the record, I agree with you (both on how time travel would likely play out, and the likelihood that any of the above pictures are evidence of, well, anything). But I’ve always found time travel claims interesting.
Anyway, I really like how time travel worked in the movie Primer, despite how confusing it could get. You could only travel back to when the box was turned on, etc. One of my favorites.
I assume that if backward time travel is possible, it would be at a time further in the future that our time now, when:
1- Mobile phones could be different, i.e. they are not bulky and held by hand (maybe wireless, etc..)
2- CD’s would not be used anymore to take them back to the 1800′s
3- Watches could also have different styles
4- T-shirts / sunglasses etc… could also be different
What is shown from the photos’s are objects that are available at our time now, which lacks imagination.
You make a good point about most (if not all) time travel claims like this.
They always contain objects we’d be familiar with from modern time. Like you said, watches, CDs, modern clothing. Never anything futuristic or unfamiliar.
I’m not altogether convinced time travel to the past is even possible in the first place, so perhaps it’s a moot point, but you’d’ think a civilization capable of time travel would have technology that would make ours utterly obsolete (then again, maybe they’re smart like Doc Brown and make sure not to take anything from the future back with them…or not).
It reminds me of the people who used to call into Coast to Coast AM during Open Time Lines. They’d claim to be from the year 3,000 or something, yet their dialect and language would be from modern times. Funny.
Good point! Some things are obvious as soon as they are stated.
oh im sure it is posible . what goes up comes back down at least here. time travel is about energy not pressure . think of it as harnessed sound waves .
@John titor. I am huonin kyouma. I have an invention. I call it the phone microwave(name subject to change).
@Toni In theory we could already have the technology for time travel in our modern society and the government could just be keeping it as one of the worlds most protected secrets like propagainda stated. Which would be plausible because think of the amount of havoc time travel would cause humans would run themselves extinct with endless fighting going back in time to change mistakes, people wanting to be a “hero” and preventing tragedies such as 9/11, Slavery (of all races), etc. Think about it if Einstein did succeed in his time travel experiment then for all we know someone in power could have said it failed and hid it away, only to be used by people in power to gain more power.
Video’s of people talking on a cell phone back in time… how would the cell phone get reception if there were no cell towers back then? So from a technical stand point; it doesn’t make sense.
Hello , I would like to comment , very true that cells wont be useful to make or receive calls bcaz there wont be any towers or signals . But yes you can shoot or take a picture with your phone. bcaz its just a camera ! but modern
Ok, let’s get one thing straight; time is imaginary. It is a result of memory and planning. Ever heard of space-time? Simply put there is but one time, ever. The now. One plethora of atoms that exist and are moving about producing the appearance of change, molding into new elements and being ionized into energies, blah, blah, blah. Main idea is that this is a closed system. There is nothing anywhere real that points to multiple time lines or the ability to revert google’s of tons of matter and peta-hertz’s of energy into states it used to exist in. I hope I’m wrong, but…
So….with all the soldiers and other individuals available to DARPA to choose from, to send to Lincoln’s Gettysburg address…why? Why did they choose a youth, rather than an adult? Why did he lose just his shoes, and not his coat, or his arm, or part of his colon? Why send someone at all, and why send someone to, of all things, a speech? Granted, an important speech, but still, with all of time presumably at your fingertips, why send someone to something that has been relatively well-documented already? This sounds implausible on it’s face, and as the gentleman said, I think we’ll all need to see some strong proof to even consider believing such claims.
Time travel is only theoretical at this point in time…And theoretically you can only move forward in time opposed to backwards. http://arstechnica.com/science/2012/07/steven-hawking-on-time-travel-m-theory-and-extra-terrestrial-life/
@ an observer, it would be ridiculous to suggest that his colon would get left behind. He would need some way to poop in the past for him to still be alive today. Logic, please.
I also wonder why would DARPA send a boy and not an adult back in time if this time travel project were true. Did Andrew Basiago travel alone back in time? If so, who might’ve took his picture then?
Why does the photographer have to be a time traveller? Its a photo taken by someone doing exactly that, taking a photo. Looking a lil bit too much into it.
i think the first picture is definitely evidence of time travel, i mean come on, a delorean? that shit is straight out of back to the future
the watch in the Chinese tomb is a ring watch, My mom had one, real big in part of the early 70,s now how it got there who knows…Had a metal detector one hit a metal abject.. Dug about two feet down .. Found a penny from same year we where digging..
Great idea for a post.Thank you!
time is non existent. we have created the idea of time, only so we can organize things and events, etcc. if you look at before, now and then as one never ending, never beginning string, then it is possible to travel to any time. and if you go to the past and change something, the come back to the future, nothing would be different because logically speaking you already would have done that in the past, ( like in futurama when fry kills his Grandfather, fry didnt die because his grandfather was never his grandfather: he is his grandfather and always was!)
The strange thing is we have just now discovered that wormholes exist within us, people talk of streching these wormholes bu as someknow this would cause all manner of problems, so l say time travel will be eventually done through infact the mind, the greatest computer ever build.
anything is possible, we are making this all up. All there is is NOW, time doesnt excist, unless it does in your reality. Everything that has happened, or is going to happen is all happening now guys. Now is all there is, and we are all ONE. One with EVERYTHING. The illusion of being Connected with everything, in a disconneted manner in the big matrix of information, numbers and codes. We are infinate conciousness here for The game. The game of self mastery. So get Shapeshiftin LOL. Groupof1.co.uk. wee anne magic
To travel in time you must break the speed of light. I have done this by “gating” different currents of elec. together and forcing them down a single wire.I get only wire decay and a strange distorted current.I am a nobody.If I can do this,our goverment has this and much more. Get ready.
Time and our perception of it is based on the interaction and decay of subatomic particles and their relation in terms of energy to the ‘light barrier’ (The speed of light where matter becomes energy and ceases to function in a way we understand.) and to gravity it’s self, which may or may not be an effect created by a subatomic particle.Anyway the point is some particles have been made to jump in time by effecting their properties. It’s a technique you’ve all heard of, teleportation, because when you make something jump in space, you make it jump in time too.
To date it’s only been done with individual electrons and photons, but the theories sound, you can make SAPs teleport to anywhere in time and space by making them instantly swop characteristics via something called quantum entanglement with each other. However in order to do this you need to know the characteristics of not only the SAP’s you want to port, but also the SAP’s you want to interchange them with (they dpnt actually trade places, just characteristics) And the only way to do that is to have a computer that’s powerful enough it can calculate a SAP’s past characteristics by anaylising it’s present ones and figuring out what’s making it behave the way it is now and so allowing it’s to simulate it’s past behaviors by eliminating present modifiers and applying a set of modifiers as they where calculated for the past.
This is obviously an insanely epic task far beyond the power of present day computers, But here’s the kicker, if anyone ever does get a computer this powerful traveling in time becomes redundant because if the computer can simulate the past to such a level of detail as to allow a quantum entanglement then all you need to do is watch the simulation on your holo deck / virtual reality projection system, you don’t need to travel there, you can effectively remote view it, you might actually be able to remote view it if you could build a device that could read and interprate the natural entanglements that happen between SAP’s anyway. The only time anyone or thing would travel in time is when they needed to change something, (which isn’t as big a no no as you think as technically all eventualities are played out anyway.) but all actual observation could be done remotely in what is actually a similar process to how radio and tv signals are remotely viewed (it would just be done across the entire energy / matter spectrum instead of just a tiny electromagnetic piece of it.)
Just wanted to bring some almost factual science and logic into this.
I wish time travel were possible, but I’m afraid it is not because time does not exist, humans invented time.
To all the people who keep saying that time does not exist: YES IT DOES. It is in fact PROVEN to exist. Do some reading on Einstein’s theory of relativity. Study time dilation. Time is not merely an artistic construct of humans. It is PART of the UNIVERSE.
Sorry Nonya but Einstein’s theory is about space-time, his theory tend to prove that gravity and acceleration forces can bend the structure of space-time.
Then that induce that if we find a way to create wormholes we should be able to travel through space and “Time”…
@ Anne Henderson: I do think exactly the same way, I just wany to add that for me the only thing important is to focus on Here & Now in this big experiment…
Well, well, well.
Lets say, that time travel is possible, lets just say, lets..
A: Ok, who owns the technology?
B: They could presumably go back, forward, etc, seems ;like the world still is at war, and no-one is really in power, so the time bandits suck eggs, smelly eggs, mermaid old fish tail wives story eggs.
C: Do you think the “owners” creators of this science would ever tell man, civilians, let alone military departments.
Now lets say they are still trying to make this science work, ok, plausible, right, ok, so who invested how much into the CERN project and if they already had the technology working CERN would already be operational and successful, trust me, and no-one would ever know it existed.
I can add to your theories, photo’s above they are all good ideas, but each one has been dropped on it’s head.
But there is a way to be in one place in one moment and another place seconds later some 400 miles away, without any damage to the person, who’s knows this?
The secret lies in the Vatican vaults, secret archives. So good luck finding it, but it is there.
Jesus was one of the privileged who could do it. Hint, hint…..
But it’s not a machine…….
Once we open our minds to the impossible, you realize anything is quite probable yet we shrug it off and end up feeling it’s just unlikely
This website is the reason the internet cant have nice things.
Don’t you all think maybe its a little ignorant to answer this question based off our laws of physics or to think any of us have a true idea of whether or not time travel is possible. You all right and wrong. Your right because these “hypotheses” are based on our little perceptions of what the universe is. Its all relative.

If we can’t understand what these parts of our world, even though these are what makes up our world, how do you think we could understand time travel, which is solely based on a PERCEPTION of the human mind?
Without debating the science and having only skimmed most replies because the theory of time travel itself is above my expertise, I have several points
*You can’t use a cell phone without a cell phone Tower. How would one use a cell phone in the 20′s-30′s if there are no towers or satellites to pick up the signal? Is it some other type of device? Perhaps, but it can’t be a cell phone. For some reason, that suggestion irked me.
*Why would anyone chose to leave behind all modern conveniences and health care to travel back in time (without a way back, if you’re to be believed, Bigbuddak), just to find out information that can be easily found in newspapers, literature, journals, photographs and first hand accounts of that time period? If you’d said, They give up their whole life in the modern world, chose extreme isolation and risk death by appendicitis to change a horrible event that occurred and Save all of humanity from annihilation… OK, they’re my heroes. But you actually claim they give up everything…. to find out what slang someone in 1890 or what underwear they put on? I could find that out with a trip to the library, or Google.
*Realizing I came late to this conversation, and no one will probably ever see this, having moved on in your own timelines to brighter things… Do we really believe everything the Chinese Government Claims? I would say their credibility is slightly strained, and I would have to see more proof than a single picture of a random person holding up a ring-watch to believe this is time travel. Also, just because one believes the tomb was undisturbed, doesn’t mean it was undisturbed for 400 years. Grave robbers, foreigners trying to sneak in without the Chinese governments knowledge….curious travelers who accidentally fell into a place they knew they shouldn’t be and covered up the evidence of their passing. These are far more plausible than time travel
All great points! Especially regarding the absence of modern health care, etc. I’d never given that particular inconvenience much thought in terms of time travel.
And I do, personally, read all of the comments here, if that counts for anything. Some are strange, but the conversations this post has sparked have at least been…interesting.
Ok, with “the cellphone lady”, what towers would she be using while talking on the cellphone in that time? So that’s disproven. The guy in the picture is wearing pilot goggles, his hairstyle is vintage and also his clothes. Disproven again. With the watch found in the tomb thingy, it is supposed that it was untouched for that amount of years, doesn’t mean it wasn’t. There is no such thing as time travel because time is not dimensional so yeah. No evidence as of yet.
It would not matter what a time traveller did if we are in lets say string one including 1 set past and future going back in time would create a string two because our past is already set, going into the future i don’t really have a clue on I would assume it would continue of string one because you are not altering events that have already happened you would be creating the events that were bound to happen from what was done in present time. So by saying that we could have time travellers but that would make it so we are not in the original string of events. I don’t know about you but thats a bit mind blowing to know we could be the alternate reality and there is an original.
time travel might actually be possible if you could go the speed of light becuase if you were travling the spped of light in space for 11 hour the earth will age and you will not.
time is not linear its non linear
Time travel is possible in the far future perhaps, just not now, and come to think of it, sending a person back in time is actually a ridiculous idea, what a waste of resources, you have to de-molecualrize him and virtually assemble him from at the given point in time, which would make him a replica, not the same guy who was send in the first place, he would not even have the same conscious reality perception, in short time travel as said in Sci-fi is a waste of time,
Now, the best way to actually do this is to send information back into time, electrons carefully impregnated with data , that can be send back to the past, it could be captured as light by eyes, and the person who gets it instanty gets the information that was send back, this could be useful s ideas, needed to make a change in wahtsoever direction that the sender chooses..
Come to think of it, if indeed such a thing is possible, then all the wars ad inventions and information we have know could be an uncnsious flow of information thats being transferred from some distant point in the future, Think of it.. lol.
Time travel is not possible for one reason: doing so changes the mass of the universe, and thus would enable the mass of the universe to become infinite. Changing the mass of the universe is inherently impossible because this would result in changes to the fundamental constants that define the very foundations of physics; the gravitational constant, the Hubble constant, even the speed of light, are all related to the mass of the universe. Not to mention to concomitant violations of the laws of thermodynamics and the effective reversal of entropy that would be involved in such a mass change.
To demonstrate how time travel alters the mass of the universe, consider this scenario: I transport myself back in time to 5 minutes ago, so that my current self is standing beside my earlier self. There are now two of me at the same time; thus the mass of the universe has increased by my mass. We wait five minutes. At this point we have both returned to now. My ‘earlier’ self goes back in time (because I’d already done that), but my ‘current’ self also goes back in time, meaning that five minutes ago there are now three of me at that point in time – and the mass of the universe has increased again. Repeat this ad infinitum (remember we have effectively infinite time because we’re cycling through the same five-minute period here, over and over) and you can see that there ultimately turns out to be infinite copies of me, comprising infinite mass. QED.
We know the universe does not have infinite mass, because there is empty space between all massive objects; if the mass of the universe was infinite there would be no space. In fact, an infinite-mass universe could only a be a black hole in its entirety and nothing else.
Finally, it’s become self-evident that all this extra mass has, from the point of view of the universe, been created out of nothing – a clear violation of the first law of thermodynamics. Since, by Einstein (E = mc^2), energy and mass are functionally equivalent, it would be theoretically possible, for example, to build a perpetual motion machine by recursively time-transporting any energy source until the source becomes infinite and then using that energy to run the machine forever. Again, the laws of thermodynamics can go hang.
So from this, it seems quite reasonable to draw the conclusion that time travel is impossible for this reason alone, even if no other reason existed.
I have just one question. Lets assume that woman is holding a cell phone in that movie but whom would she call?
Well there you go. Proof! Swiss watches are actually Made in China. Can’t say I’m surprised!
Who knows if time travelling is true or not…we will never know…maybe
Am I the only one that got the Doctor Who reference?
I was going to ask the same thing!
I got it. Wibbly Wobbly….
Strange pics…who knows if time travelling is possible or not?
John Titor saying hello,
I am not John, but you may call be John being as how popular his conquests have become. His legend, as it where, grew so big that all of our vaulenteers were code named ‘John’ from the beginning, our beginning.
Our beginning took place 8 years prior to when John’s team first accomplished time warp technology. His return to your time, coupled with his messages to the people of your time, sparked a great interest in time travel that accelerated the discovery process. We not only discovered that time can flow forwards and backward, but, like John’s team we learned to move transdimensionally, only we learned to control the direction in which we traveled. We didn’t do this alone.
Our team was visited by a group from our future that called themselves States Men. They guided us through several aspects of time travel technology and hoe to control its rotation. They made it very clear there are strict guidelines in place for traveling from one plain to the next. We moved with caution.
The States Men were very interested in how our technology was influenced by the indirect actions of John Titor. Our first task was to travel to a list of dates and times to assess if other time travelers had been there. Unlike what John has said, when you go back in one dimension it does effect the next. These changes will be discussed at a later date. Our research concluded that not only had others visited these dates, but they were not all from our future. What we discovered is that time distortion can be achieved a number of ways, and not all of them are mechanical.
The above photos are very comical, with the exception of one. The man in the sunglasses was indeed a time traveler. He and I were very close in training and he was the second of our team to travel back through time.
We cannot go into a future that is yet to exist
And we cannot go back to the past that no longer exists.
The only time travel I know is in the present and I wish to be in Alaska for Christmas, because I wish to experience Bing Crosby’s White Christmas for the first time.
Happy holidays!
The one with the woman using a cellphone, according to Cracked.com it’s a listening device for old people, they have an article with the details
I promise time travel is possible. I have been visited by a traveler from the future. I know its not something i can prove a.t.m. but its true. This man’s mission was to have me eat 4 bowls of carrot soup. I know this sounds funny and I can’t tell you why, because i don’t know why. He told me of certain future events that only someone of my nature would pay very close attention to. These events have happen and the chances he was predicting them are not possible. This man was a very nice guy that was only interested in me and was not at all about himself. He knew my family and I but we had never seen this man. I got some of the best feelings from the mans intentions. I believe in Jesus Christ and feel their is no reason to lie about such things. I don’t need people to prove me wrong because it will get all of us no where. This happen after I turned 21 years old, I am now 28. Since then I have become aware of so much more then I thought was possible. Ive also been threw a lot of hard times and realize why this man didn’t warn me about anything to do with me. The man told me I would see what he was saying for myself when the time came. The events are of no importance to my well being and have not changed anything for me.
My theory of time travel is about vibrational energy’s. Only those who understand would be capable of such a feat. What people fail to realize is that we are simple people with simple minds. Just because we see no way to do what seem impossible doesn’t mean its not achievable. I can’t explain how everything works because I do not know. Inner peace can play a major role on understanding things. Listening to people that doubt everything because they don’t understand is foolish. When people become angry and curse of those things they don’t understand is no different then being cursed.
Think about it. Right now, we have the super rich paying for flights into space. So why do we assume that in the future, if time travel becomes reality, that people would travel to the past for scientific purposes? I can imagine a huge tourist industry built around time travel. What better vacation for world weary future dwellers, than to go back in time and experience the world at a favorite time? I would love to visit the turn of the last century, and then go back home in a week or so. Yeah, Dr. Who has a great job.
Bigbuddak, are you a Fringe fan? Sounds like it. As Walter says , “Even the impossible is possible.”
All very explainable.
An obvious question for Basiago: WHO took the ‘photo’? How was said photo FORWARDED to Basiago’s modern era AFTER THE SILVER-PLATE NEGATIVE TOOK HOURS (!) to develop??! DId he tell the ‘photogtapher’ to U.S. mail the picture to an address he represented to the photogapher as being an 1863-address, but was REALLY his own, modern address??? Doesn;t add up…
About the 1928 & 1938 women on cell phones….exactly how would they even work? No cell towers, no satellites and no one else to talk to.
So let’s pretend I’m so time traveler. When I get to 1938 the first thing I’m gonna do is pull out my cell phone and talk to who, exactly??? A.) unless I know the chick from Charlie’s movie then there’s probably (definitely) nobody else with a cell phone, and B.) THERE ARE ZERO CELL PHONE TOWERS. Or satellites. (And why isn’t everyone in the picture stunned by an apparent wireless phone??)
Now let’s pretend I brought back CD’s. The first thing I’m going to do with those is uhhh, nothing. Because I don’t have a computer. So I might as well let some guy take forever painting me with them while nobody makes a big deal about having different technology.
As for the first picture, it’s either photoshopped or those styles really aren’t as “modern” as we think. Nobody is looking at him like he’s out of place or even really taking notice of him for that matter.
As for the tomb, pocket watches had been around since the 1600′s. Wristwatches weren’t invented until the later 1800′s. Maybe a traveler from china discovered the Swiss were just ahead of the current? After all, pocket watches were making money for the time being.
The old women with the phone in the 1920s film is using an old fashioned hand held hearing aid. http://www.inquisitr.com/88670/charlie-chaplin-time-traveler-solved/
the photos supposedly mobile phones ……….. can’t be cause even if they are time travellers and took mobile phones with them ..surely they wouldn’t work because the phone masts/towers that now pepper the countryside these days didn’t exsist then so any mobile phones taken back to the time of the photo wouldn’t work
Probably not. However, some would claim that any time travelers from the future would likely have the technology to communicate “through time.” Not sure how that would work, but…
Of course, I don’t personally believe this stuff is evidence of anything, really. Interesting claims, though.
Why take a picture of the matching tattoos? I find it convenient that there is no photograph of standing next to each other. To me, that one fact completely debunks this man’s claims.
Wow! I’m so glad there’s no such thing as Photoshop. Otherwise these pictures would require a lot more proof than .jpgs on a web site!
Man, the people with first hand time travel experience or those with complex time travel stories seriously need to get off the drugs.
I am not one that would normaly post something on a site like this, however I do have a couple of things to say. I am not saying that I believe or disbelieve the theory of time travel. I agree with arguments on both sides. But here are a couple of things that are simply food for thought.
1. When Dick Tracey comics first come out, he had things like a telephone in his watch. Once again during that time there were no Cell Towers, no satelites, yet some how he had a phone that worked. Now that technology is available.
2. During the 60s Star Trek came out and they had computers, fought with stun guns, operated with lasers, etc. Now we have these technologies.
Although the technology that we have today may not be exactly what people imagined 50, 75 or even 100 years ago, but it is still there. I believe that if a person can imagine something, that somewhere at some point there will be someone that can make it a reality. As far as Time Travel goes, people have been discussing this for 100′s of years. Who am I to say if it exist or doesn’t.
For all of you that absolutly refuse to beleive that this is possible, I am just glad you weren;t around the Wright Brothers, or Mr. Bell, or Thomas Edison. Because we sould surely still be in the dark ages.
“People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually — from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint — it’s more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly… timey-wimey… stuff.”
— The Tenth Doctor, Doctor Who, “Blink”
Well according to stephen hawking… who knows way more than any of us about the physics of theoretical time travel… It could only happen forward in time, not backwards. The basic theory is that if the human body could somehow survive speeds faster than the speed of light, it would have different effects on the body and the person could end up years in the future with very few years of aging on the human body. So it’s kind of like time traveling because it could be 1000 years later, but your body has only aged 2 years in human time.
Backwards in time though is a totally different thing… and for that you’d have to believe in multiple dimensions to be possible which is a completely different concept.

If the women were on cell phones, they wouldn’t work anyway…the phones would require cell service.
