Fun Post Time Travel Photos

Weird Clothing that doesn't seem to fit...

Technology that seems out of place for its time...

Do you believe people can travel backwards in time? Would they show up in old photographs?

Here is a place to post your images.

This famous time travel photo is known as the "Time Traveling Hipster"


Or this one! Did cell phones exist in the 1950s?


Or how about this one? "Jello Dancing" during the depression?

 

If time travel were possible, shouldn't there be time travelers here from future right now? There would be an infinite number of time travelers, going to an infinite number of points in history...we would not only be aware of the time travelers, but they'd be everywhere.

 

I am sure there are perfectly reasonable explanations fir all of these. I will watch this thread though

 

The Travelers are only here to help fix the past to prevent the furture.

 

Here is another classic. Would be funny though to find out what this is.

 

I love the idea that sophisticated time travellers are whipping out early 21st century smartphones to record events

 

The reason for this painting is for sure that Stallone forgot to take his phone with him while having fun as Pope Gregor the IX

 

I was visiting the city of Graz two years ago and saw this guy. I immediately ran away.

 

Photo colorization shows a t-shirt with a logo that is unlike those seen when this picture was taken.




And this photo which could be from 1917. The person circled is getting stares. The t-shirt doesn't quite seem to fit. The townsfolk are rather befuddled by his appearance. Look at the man to his right who is staring at him rather than looking at the photographer.




And then there's Andrew Basiago who claims he is the boy in this photo taken at Gettysburg.





Vladamir Putin, Time Traveler?


And this guy? His manner of dress is too stylish for the era and could be an anachronism.

 

Young Stan Lee ?

 

There's the internet story / legend of John Titor. He apparently travelled backwards in time from 2036 to get an IBM 5100 computer. His mission was to fix a timeout set to occur in the year 2038.

This woman's Nike shoes and anachronistic camera give her away as a time traveler. Look at the gentleman to her right who seems more interested in her than the photo he is trying to take.



Gone without a trace.

 

If this were true that means someone here, in F&G has to be one. hmmmmm....

 

?

 

You don't actually believe any of this stuff, I hope?

 

We are all true believers in this thread. It's true, all of it. Especially Greta, Travolta and Nicolas Cage
Time to move this thread to the JCC

 

I'd say it is no smartphone but a mirror he got as a present

 

Would a mirror be so thick? My only question is which operating system was he using?

Perhaps even more interesting are the "propane tanks" to his left. Interesting this one is, very interesting. Look how everyone's attention is directed towards him.

*Generally, the narrative created by time travel photos is too good to ignore.

 

Windows. The reason their culture perished.

 

So we can hold Bill Gates responsible? I guess it could be a rare Windows Phone or a Microsoft Surface Tablet?

The thing he is sitting in is also interesting. Is that supposed to be a bathtub? Or could it be something else?

Generally in time travel photos, we see the "time traveler" being disruptive. People are scratching their heads and looking away from the camera because the person showed up out of nowhere and their clothing and technology are out of place. So this artwork fits.

 

Vista for sure.

 

I think the "bathtub" is actually a "sky chariot." The propane tanks might carry rocket fuel. Or maybe the Windows Vista machine is powered by the "propane tanks?"

This next time travel photo has bugged a lot of people. Who else could this be but Jay-Z when he went back to the 1930s?
