I reckon the mobile phone user in the video was military, they ALWAYS get technology before civilans and anyone else etc

There's a small (but apparently growing) band of people on the internetz looking through old images and trying to spot people who are 'out of place' or 'unusual'. I've seen about 3 or 4 of these 'time traveller' images. Makes me  every time. This mobile phone one is at once the most amusing and pathetic, all at once.

pathetic a bit too harsh a word professor when considering as we live in a tech age and you see funny coincidences where it looks like yesteryears people are using or have modern day tech etc that looks completly out of place  damnit hard to explain properly

i think it becomes a little clearer if you think that technology is designed to accomodate how we naturally move and hold things, not the other way round.

Well, ok, but as other's have pointed out, stopping to think for 5 seconds about how a mobile phone works should've prompted people to think of other alternatives that fit with the time frame. On the other hand, maybe in the future there will not only be time travel, but mobile communication that operate across different time frames. Or, it's just a woman with a hearing aid. One's complete speculation, the other's an almost certainty.

This weekend I think I'll try time travelling. It'll probably take me until late on Sunday night/early Monday Morning, when I think I'll try going back in time by about an hour. I'll let you all know how I get on.

I'd love to join in, but I can almost guarantee I'll forget about it and miss the whole thing.

When I was a kid, I had an alarm clock that would automatically adjust for BST/GMT. I used to try and stay up in the hope of seeing it automatically adjust. Think I only ever saw it a couple of times.

Hold on, you mean the clocks go back this weekend? Bah, that means it's officially winter.
