  • TremorX, on 12/22/2007, -1/+179I don't think his flux capacitor is firing at exactly 1.21 Jiggawatts, if you know what I'm saying.
  • KeyLimePie, on 12/22/2007, -0/+178You must not have been here the first time this was on Digg back in 2043.
  • creep303, on 12/22/2007, -3/+165Safety not guaranteed!
  • inactive, on 12/22/2007, -4/+163Too bad he didn't give a more detailed story. I find it hard to believe that it wouldn't have crossed his mind to get some useful information from the future. The only trouble I have with this story is that he does indeed seem very genuine. Then again, so do some actors. Also how do you just come back to the present? Alright, so I'm in the future and this is an incredible twice in a lifetime opportunity. Oops! Look at the time! I need to get back and get my sink fixed before dinner. The plumbers always overlook those pesky wormholes. Bye, me! Nice meeting, me.
  • magixx2, on 12/22/2007, -1/+142He probably just hit his head on one of the pipes.
  • Sphiner, on 12/22/2007, -10/+150***** but i like it - digg
  • nubnub, on 12/22/2007, -5/+116You know you are traveling through time at the moment unless you stopped time o_O
  • inactive, on 12/22/2007, -3/+106Vile hippies have been able to do this for decades... it's called LSD. :-)
  • inactive, on 12/22/2007, -2/+100Who is holding the camera?
  • luke374, on 12/22/2007, -0/+87I would do this too if my dad and I had matching tattoos.
  • gn0stik, on 12/22/2007, -0/+82I have to agree. I just crawled under my sink and nothing happened.
  • Hollic, on 12/22/2007, -0/+60"I have a time machine at home. It only goes forward at regular speed. It's essentially a cardboard box and on the outside I wrote 'Time Machine' in Sharpie."

  • m0d3s7m1k3, on 12/22/2007, -3/+62How much you wanna bet I can throw a pig skin over them mountains?
  • hazard, on 12/22/2007, -0/+59Easy! His teenage self who also happened to be under the sink, who do you think talked them into getting those silly tattoos?
  • relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -6/+64http://timetraveler.ytmnd.com/
  • kucing, on 12/22/2007, -3/+60I just came from the past to digg this.
    Now I'm crawling back under the sink to return.
  • rtcrump, on 12/22/2007, -1/+55This is from a Swedish retirement fund commercial. Buried.
  • nosfan1019, on 12/22/2007, -1/+54I'm now absolutely 100% convinced
  • phre3k187, on 12/22/2007, -0/+47"We invented a time machine that travels to the future at the speed of time"
  • robdiggity, on 12/22/2007, -0/+47Yes. This story can't be real because both tattoos look brand new.

    Not because some ***** guy says he climbed under his sink and traveled into the future to meet himself at age 70, and recorded it on his mobile phone, and never described how he managed to return.

    But then again maybe it was real - I couldn't understand a goddamn word of their darn-fangled future language.
  • Vullkan, on 12/22/2007, -0/+39if you stop the time you will not be aware of that, after it continues its like it never stopped.
  • xbirdmanx, on 12/22/2007, -0/+35You mean this guy really didn't travel into the FUTURE?!?!?!?!?
  • jcc6655, on 12/22/2007, -0/+35you can't let them know our secrets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • eanbowman, on 12/22/2007, -1/+35That man came up with the best excuse for a video of him and his secret lover I've heard of yet.
  • GregR, on 12/22/2007, -0/+33It's interesting that his older self was wearing a shirt that looked like what you could buy in the stores today.
    Pretty boring future where styles aren't going to change. A photo with a newspaper or some piece of technology would have been much more convincing.
  • JT114881, on 12/22/2007, -1/+34I have only done this once.
  • johnnynack, on 12/22/2007, -2/+33i checked under my sink, it's not there
  • JVIikel, on 12/22/2007, -2/+33Of course it's not real. Did you see the tattoos? They both look brand new. Either as a grandpa he got the tat removed and then got a new one over it, or maybe it looks new because it *is* new...

    Just throwing that out there.
  • kucing, on 12/22/2007, -9/+39I just came from the past to digg this.
  • Intenseboredom, on 12/22/2007, -3/+32I always figured the reason why we don't time travel is because....

    we can't
  • DarkenKO, on 12/22/2007, -4/+32burried for inaccurate title...

    also... photoshopped
  • Takuro, on 12/22/2007, -0/+27Your past self beat you to the punch. (See 3 digg comments up)
  • bnorman, on 12/22/2007, -2/+28Or just pay an old guy that kind of looks like you to get your same tattoo. And head to the beach!
  • solidsmoke, on 12/22/2007, -0/+26Well, I guess his older self would remember travelling through time and meeting HIS older self.
  • n0tj0sh, on 12/22/2007, -0/+25Must bring your own weapons.
  • drudometkin, on 12/22/2007, -1/+26you forgot to put the crystals in
  • Harbinger67, on 12/22/2007, -0/+25Push it to the limit!
  • someguyouknow, on 12/22/2007, -0/+24It has to be leaking first.
  • beersnob, on 12/22/2007, -0/+24*****! Old me's tattoo should be faded/half-green. Looked brand new!
  • magicmarc, on 12/22/2007, -0/+23I can imagine this starting as a BS story to his wife as to where he was that day, when he was supposed to be fixing the pipe in the kitchen, and it just took off, with him sticking to his story.
    Meanwhile, he was having a wild time with a tattoo machine and a 70 year old man.
  • DarkenKO, on 12/22/2007, -3/+25what? how did this sell any cell phones? our phones can film the future, with long distance clearity!
  • superyounan1, on 12/22/2007, -1/+23its been dugg before. I can't imagine going to the future, meeting my future self, and not having much more to say than that.

    anyone can get duplicate tattoos with an old guy and take a 10 second choppy video clip.
  • Sharky35, on 12/22/2007, -1/+21Maybe the tattoo is the source of the Vortex...
    THATS why it didn't look faded.... Prove me wrong.
  • SonicEarth, on 12/22/2007, -0/+18That's 88 miles per hour.
  • MrAction408, on 12/22/2007, -0/+18makes more sense than a vortex under your sink
  • pepemt, on 12/22/2007, -0/+18shouldn't the old guy's tattoo have been more faded?
  • lumbergh, on 12/22/2007, -0/+18Have you seen what old people wear? My mom, who is 71, still has outfits (complete with padded shoulders) from like the 70's.
  • Takuro, on 12/22/2007, -1/+18Under the title "How to Meet Your Past Self / Where to Get Tribal Tattoos."
  • inactive, on 12/22/2007, -7/+24This is a advert for a cell company, it was disproved awhile back.
