Proof of time travel. There are also some incredible color photographs from WWII (http://www.yellowbullet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=396393) that look like they were taken with a modern camera.

Some of this retouching stuff is awesome. I saw the sound of music recently on bluray and despite its age it looks freaking incredible.

Those are really cool, thanks!

Notice the clothing that everyone is wearing. Looks like something my grandmother wore. Not so much the grandmothers of today (we're getting past the generation of WW2 folks, if you were in your 20's then you're in your 80's-90's now), but when I was younger and everyone's grandparents were WW2 vets, this is how they dressed. The point here is that however you dressed in your 20's, that's how you'll dress in your 70's! I suspect that when I'm 75 years old, everyone my age will look like this, 50 years older

They're all white! Obviously a lot different from London now. 😉

Funny thing is, somebody a 100 years from now will be looking at videos of us today, thinking "boy, they had it rough back in those days". It's all relative.

When the Great Economic Collapse happens, they'll be lucky enough to even have electricity to run the Ipad to see the Youtube video of how good we have it today. (It will be a cat video that they're viewing)
 
Anybody else catch the guy on the smart phone a couple min in? Was he a time traveler? I've already said too much.
 
Just watched again. It really seems like it's playing in slow motion. I bet it was an odd frame rate and they had to slow it down a bit to synchronize with our 60hz video standards.
