Is it possible to travel back in time? If so is it possible to travel back in time prior to the creation of a time machine?

Is it possible for you go back in time and kill yourself?

It is possible. John Titor did it to warn of us of the upcoming civil war.

Do a search in OT and Highly Technical - ideas on time travel have been discussed before.

I believe that with enough energy and a wormhole, you could travel into the past, but only as far back as the machine has existed.

I traveled back through time to stop the Great Nuclear Holocaust of 2007. I guess it worked.

And I came back from 2073 to stop you from accidentally delaying the invention of time travel and creating a paradox.

Oh, I already did, er..well...will. I'm here on a second trip to give myself the pointers that I gave me last time through.

I can't reveal if I have or haven't done any time travel.
