For one day only, You can go back in time.....

[AndyHunter]

What year would you go back to, and why?
Would you go to witness the birth of Christ, or witness your own birth?
I'd go back to 13 September 1965, no real reason, just so I could see what it was like in the "Swinging 60's"

 

[Marbod]

I will go back to the year 1101 to be a crusader. But really only for a day.

 

[Whonder_Whore]

The Year 1969....
Woodstock Fetsival....

[AndyHunter]

Or... how about going back to last Saturday, making a note of the winning lotto numbers!

 

[juballs]

go to the largest jackpot ever won and buy a ticket with the winning numbers

 

[om3ga]

Or... how about going back to last Saturday, making a note of the winning lotto numbers!

:rofl:

I was going to say either the dates when JFK or Martin Luther King were assassinated or the night Princess Diana died.

But instead, I'd go back to one of these three events:

July 30 1966, Wembley Stadium, London - England 4 - 2 (AET) West Germany (World Cup final).

Failing that - 1968 and watch West Indies cricketer Gary Sobers' record breaking six sixes off six balls (it was during a county game between Nottingham and Glamorgan, in Swansea).

Finally December 2, 1942 at the University of Chicago, where a team led by Enrico Fermi initiated the first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction (in an experimental reactor named Chicago Pile-1).

 

[KittyKat]

Great question to ask a history geek like me *blushes*

1) The assassination of JFK

2) The day of the Tet Offensive in Vietnam

3) The day Hannibal reached the summit of the Alps

I could go on, but I'd most likely bore everyone to death! LOL

i would go back to 1990's, i'm 14 again, no worries, no problems
lay down on the hot sand of Tel-Aviv's beach and think about what i'm going to do when i grow up

1500 B.C. The Mesopotamian capital of Babylon

I have always wanted to see Babylon in it's heyday. The hanging gardens, The Tower of Babel, The statue of Marduk, and the sexy Persian girls!

I'd go back to the first day my mother was afflicted with a malignant, cancerous tumor on her lung (early 1999), rush her to an oncologist, and have her treated for it. We never knew what was going on until it was too late, until the symptoms appeared (November 1999) - and by that point her tumor was inoperable. It would have killed her for the doctors to operate on her.

She showed symptoms (weird ones - her voice went from normal to a Marge Simpson voice very suddenly, and she was stubborn and said it was a cold) too late for it to be operable, and when they finally did a chest X-ray on her, they saw a tumor the size of a grapefruit on her lung. Had they not caught it when they did, the doctors said she would have been dead in 2-3 days; the chemo and radiation treatments DID help. The tumor was pushing on one of her vocal chord nerves and THAT was what had been affecting her speech.

She went through Hell (radiation and chemotherapy) to "buy time," and it did...we had 6 more months with her, but the tumor killed her in the end.

The tumor ruptured October 9th, 2000 and she drowned in/on her own blood - she couldn't breathe due to the rupturing of the tumor. :crying:

Christ... I'm crying now. :crying: The memory of rushing over to my parents' house to see my dead mother, hairless from the chemotherapy and blood all over the bed and on her face (Dad tried to clean her up as best as he could before calling all of us to come over, but there was still blood everywhere) haunts me to this day.

Anyway, that's the day to which I'd go back. I'd maybe be able to save her life. I miss her every single day.

Fuck. I didn't want to think about that again, but that's my answer.

Both of my granddads died before i was born , i'd like to go back to meet them, get to know them
even go couple of months back to see my grandmother in Moscow, who recently passed away from Alzheimer's

 

[grannopal]

I would also like to save a couple of loved ones, but for the sake of keeping this topic on a happy note, I would go back to 1965 Newport festival, and see Dylan go electric. Woodstock sounds like a good Idea too. Another thing I would have liked is to see Maradona score against England in 86.

 

[Jacksson_77]

I was thinking about a day which I wanted to go back to, but until Nightfly's post I had no idea.
Now I know I'd go back to the day my father died at the age of 37, in 1977. I was only four years old when his life suddenly ended in an accident and if I could, I'd prevent this from happening. If not, then let me go back to any day before that accident.

:hatsoff: Jackson

Nov 20th 2000....The Day Before my Sister was killed by a drunk driver and tell her that I love you

 

[Imagine]

Messing with the timeline is a tricky thing. Theoretically, making things better is only one possibility. Consequences may be worse than you anticipate, ranging from a minor inconvenience, say the death of a person, to a slightly larger inconvencience such as the universe imploding. Oops. That's a can of worms I'd rather not open.

As for merely observing, that's another thing. The creation of time and space would probably be my pick althought a bit complicated. The creation of life would be another good one. Somewhat more "realistic" would perhaps be to see whether Christ was actually born or not.

 

[Basedow]

If you go back far enough all you'll need is a PSP and a bag of snickers and you'll surely be crowned king of some place.

 

[Imagine]

Why'd you want to be king over a people that'd be that impressed by a PSP and a bag of snickers?

 

[Basedow]

May as well just ask why would you want to be king. Before electricity who wouldn't be impressed by something electronic? I bet I'd rule over Ghengis Khan's army with a friggin' flashlight.

 

[Jacksson_77]

I've always asked myself this question: if journeys back in time should be possible some day, where are the tourists from the future now, shouldn't we see some of them?

There are only two answers:

a) humans will never be able to travel through time
b) time tourists can only be observers, but not take any action

Hmmm, some brain food...

:hatsoff: Jackson

 

[Montrealman]

I'd go back.....




















To The Future !!!
:tongue:

Goodday :hatsoff:
