Time traveller - Takes video of his present and future self

Hello ATS,

I hope that I have posted this in the right place, if not then I do apologise. I also done a search for it and couldn't find any threads on it.

I always found the topic of time travelling interesting, and while i was browsing through youtube, I came across a very strange yet interesting video.

I would love to know what you guys think and also if anyone has any more info on this then it would be great if you could share. Thanks!

Hi Ephio. This video has been on youtube for a while now and is a complete hoax. The video shows him with his "future" self, but look at the tattoos of both of the men in the video. I have 2 tattoos and I have for years and I know that they fade over time. The "future" self of this man has the same tattoo, but it has not faded, as if if it would be the very day he got it. This hoaxster plastered this video all over youtube as a means of garnering attention.

Ah i see, that is a very good point about the tattoo.
It's sort of hard to see though in the video as the quality is terrible lol
Thanks for the reply

This has been posted a million times and proves nothing. For me, the tattoo gives it all away. Being something who is covered in tattoos, i can tell you that they definitely fade over time.. and I'm only 26. They both look brand new.. impossible.

EDIT: WOW! You pretty much posted my exact thoughts haha.. weird. sure you're not my future self, Rubicant? o_o

No problem. I am guessing that this supposed "future" self is his father, or a friend that helped him perpetrate the hoax.

Yes, I assumed time portals would be under the sink in the kitchen, and I have met many people who would love to take pictures of themselves hanging out with themselves...under the sink in the kitchen...lol

Some older person that looks like him and has nearly the same tattoo doesn't mean "proof". The tattoos aren't the same unless his older self had it darkened and added more to it. But the tattoos are definitely different. Somewhat different designs and both different colors.

Not "proof" by any means.

Oh, i understand

But is there a chance the the person got it re-done??
Personally if i had a tattoo and it started to fade, I would want to get it re-done, so that it would look good again.
Im not saying this is video is true, I am just saying that you have to weigh up the possibilities.

Not at any point did i say that it was proof. I just stated that it was interesting and that i would like to know info about it, if anyone had any.

You can but again it will fade in another few years and you can only go over a tattoo so many times before it scars and does not look good at all. I suppose it's possible.

If one entertains that notion, what are the chances that the time traveler met his future self shortly after or within a time frame of a few months of getting the tattoo re-inked? Seems like too many coincidences to me.

It appears to have been recorded by a third person...

Thats a really good point.
How long do you think a tattoo takes for the fading to become noticeable??

My first started fading within 6 months. It was noticibly different within a year.

Ah i see, yeah the chances are quite low then lol :S

Time travel?

What a load of crap

absolute bs. ok if he really met with his future self, lets hear who gets nominated for the next decades worth of elections, lets here significant events etc. or hey we can always just show another guy with the same tattoo? really? im not one to insult others beliefs, but youd be bloody sucker to believe this guy.

a legitimate story that i believe is closest modern record of time travel is from a pilot a few years ago who went over bermuda triangle and saw either another dimension or the future, who really knows? others know the story im referring to.

A time portal under the kitchen sink?Meeting his future self after entering his sink portal?And a couple of wash off tattoos is just a bit far fetched for me,thanks.

I'm pretty sure I've seen this video posted here before. This is what I could find about it:

The Print Ad titled THE TIME TRAVELLER was done by Forsman & Bodenfors advertising agency for product: Pension Funds (brand: Amf Pension) in Sweden. It was released in the Nov 2006.

Apparently they have other ads like that:

Amf Pension Adverts & Commercials Archive MEET YOURSELF IN THE FUTURE

The Print Ad titled MEET YOURSELF IN THE FUTURE was done by Mindshare advertising agency for product: Pension Funds (brand: Amf Pension) in Sweden. It was released in the Nov 2004.

You could send a picture of you and they would text you back an image of what you'd look like when you were 70 years old.

You can see some pictures of the outdoor campaign here.

Maybe not, but the title of the actual video screams "PROOF!!!" Too many people don't know the definition of "proof" or "evidence".
