Apparently they think it's an old-fashioned hearing aid. Shame. I was hoping it was Captain Picard in drag. | ||

That's really weird - if it's a hearing aid, why's she talking into it? I think it's the Devil. | ||

but who's she talking to? | ||

...and via which cellphone mast? | ||

Great. World's first sighting of a time-traveller, and it's a fucking Hollywood agent. | ||

Maybe it's a dictaphone.  | ||

I used a dictaphone once. it's much easier to use your fingers. the other guy really wasn't pleased. | ||

Judging by her bulk, I can only assume she's wearing some kind of hefty time-travelling vest beneath her coat. We must record this thread for posterity, just in case she accidentally drops a bucket on the little tramp's head and changes the face of comedy forever, in A Sound of Thunder-like fashion. | ||

She's just hearing about all the fuss about her in 2010. She can't believe it. Retrocausal, of course. | ||

...just in case she accidentally drops a bucket on the little tramp's head... Oh, if only. | ||

The most amazing thing about this video is something that nobody has yet commented on. Yes, the woman is a time-traveller using a modern mobile phone, but the gent in front of her has a futuristic hands-free phone which is so small it can't be seen at all! | ||

The most amazing thing of all is that anyone believes this is anything more genuine than an ad or viral designed for some as yet unclear purpose. I wonder what ringtone was on the phone back in the day, though. Silent movies, would it matter? | ||

The most amazing thing of all is that anyone believes this is anything more genuine than an ad or viral designed for some as yet unclear purpose. I am very sensitive and disinclined towards these things myself, Mark... but this one, if so ("if" - listen to me!) is so cleverly done, I can only tip my hat to it. | ||

This might well be a viral. A similar story broke earlier this year. http://forgetomori.com/2010/fortean/time-traveler-caught-in-museum-photo/ | ||

What is 'a viral'? Are you implying the film is concocted and not really a 1928 footage? | ||
| Degsy (Degsy) Username: Degsy Registered: 08-2010 Posted From: 86.139.164.67 |
I haven't looked into the background of this too deeply so it may well be genuine footage (just misinterpreted by our modern sensibility). But my spider-sense tells me to treat anything on YouTube with a modicum of scepticism until proved otherwise. I wouldn't be surprised if a follow-on video is released where the woman is seen waving an i-phone or whatever and asks Chaplin for the lend of his charger. | ||

I believe the footage was completely faked, staged - but cleverly so! I like that whomever did this, did it subtly, and not in-your-face-ish. The very - forget low-key, it's the non-key taint to it: THAT'S what makes it so compelling.... | ||

new evidence found! This will clear the matter up once and for all! http://www.youtube.com/watchv=Z2vysLk5yqE&feature=related Regards Terry | ||

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2vysLk5yqE&feature=related Sorry if it didn't work last time. I've pastd this directly from You Tube. if not it is "another Time Traveller spotted in Charlie Chaplin film" |
