Ever done it?

Re: Ever done it?

We've seen so many hoaxes over the years that when someone comes with new stuff, no one want to believe him.

It at least makes some interesting discussions.

Hiya.. what would it take to make believers out of those who are skeptics?
What is the one thing...besides the obvious...like Lotto numbers.
Something scientific...
I think for me I would actually have to do it to be sure.
The only reason I believe in Out of Body Exp. is cuz I have done it.
( And no, I wasnt high)

Anyway, people are posting to discuss on different topics. Keeping an open mind is the trick. Even if you're not a believer, you still can discuss about the subject. Yardstick is a good exemple. Everybody knew it was a hoax, but the thread wasn't dying. I think that's how it must be with a "interesting" hoax.

OK, as Harte said, there's a line that must not be crossed. We're here to discuss, not to attack other posters

Re: Ever done it?

Even though I think that most TT stories are fake, I am totally open to TT. Some of the science intimidates me..I go with my instincts and I think that TT is real....but I dont know it from the science part..Its what I feel in my soul....
Its something that I feel...Its weird..I just think that we have TTs here but they wouldnt reveal themselves. I just feel that they wouldnt do that And I dont even know why......

Re: Ever done it?

Interesting. To reply to what you said earlier gonzogirl, the bad thing with out of body experiences, is that you can't proove you're experiencing them. Just like HDRKID, he can't proove it, hoax or not. That must be why he doesn't want to do physical time travel with his HDR...
Maybe there are some TTs around us, if they exist (And they are not posting in forums !). If so, I wonder how they deal with paradox... It makes me think of TimeCop with Van Damme !

Re: Ever done it?

I think all paradoxes can be solved with the multiverse theory. With everything that could go wrong, it seems logical that that'd be the only way it would work.

Like I said in another thread though, the trouble with that method would be finding a universe similar enough to your own to jump to... And then finding your way back.

Regardless, if there are time travelers here today they'd certainly not be posting on forums about it for obvious reasons.

Re: Ever done it?

Besides, I wonder what kind of technology they are using. It makes me think of different movies like star trek, back to the future, the time machine. Are they using black holes/white fountains ?

I didn't see it since a very long time, but When they get back in time in Star Trek, it was pretty cool. Didn't they turned aroud the sun a few times in order to get back to the past ?

What about the movement of the earth in the universe ? I mean, the earth is moving around the sun, the sun is moving in the galaxy, the galaxy is moving in space. Even with the multiverse theory, it might be a problem if you go to the future, but stay in the same absolute space. It would mean that the earth moved away from you while you were time travelling.

An interesting idea and the basis for a classic science fiction short story - can't remember the name - where a guy murdered another guy while shooting pool. Made the cue ball jump into another universe and back. The ball had picked up a bunch of momentum in the other universe because of what you say above, and when it came back, it broke right through the bumpers on the table and went straight through the guy and then through the wall and out.

I believe Titor had some type of clock that prevented this from happening. He had some example story about when time travel began. An object they "sent through" ended up several thousand miles away, blah, blah, such and such...

Re: Ever done it?

I can't imagine any technology dealing with this problem. To me it sounds just too amazingly complicated. Figure that : You're trying to deal with earth movement as travelling through time, but not through space. While moving in time, how could you also move through space "artificially" (here I mean, moving independantly from the earth) in order to still be on earth when you "arrive" then.

I think that this problem happens only when travelling through time like in Back To The future. The way the DeLorean travels is instantly. The DeLorean isn't moving gradually through time like in the movie The Time Machine for exemple. In the case of Wells' time machine, I don't think we're having this problem.

Anyway, that's what I understand !

I remember Titor talking about that device, though not giving so much details.

I just dont get the timeline or multi universe stuff..I mean why would we have another universe that is almost the same as ours? When people are born and go into their world why is it just almost like ours?..would ours be like theirs I mean which came first?
I do think there are more dimentions tho...ones that we cant see because our brains are not developed enough to get it..like dimentions of the consciousness.
But the whole bizzaro world thing I just dont see the WHY.....
