This man says he crawled under his sink and found himself in the future, he recorded it with his cell-phone.

    bogus. In the future, everyone walks around in UV resistant full-body suits and breathes through special pollution filtering masks.

    I won't say that time-travel is absolutely impossible, and he may very well be telling the truth. I don't think a hallucination would be able to record on his cell-phone, so he'd have to knowlingly lie.

    What I do know though, is that if backwards time travel is possible and acheived at any point in the future, we'd be aware of it. "Where are the time-travellers from the future?" that question tells me that either backwards time travel isn't possible, or we never figure out how to do it.

    You've never time-traveled? It's great fun. Oh wait, I'm not supposed to talk about it. :eek:

    Apparently it is actually possible for time travel at the moment, but only for a very minute period of time.
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    lol, I don't think it's possible, but it might be.

    Ok, let's say this guy went 30 years in the future and met himself. Then he knows that in 30 years his younger self is going to come from that past. Yet, there is no camera crew, no recording devices waiting for him in the future, no way of proving the event happened.

    What he could do is say, 30 years from now I'm going to come from the past and have whitnesses there to prove it. But that didn't happen, which makes me wonder if it was real, or what he was thinking.

    I travel into the future all the time, we all do, if that's what you mean?

    I travel from one second to the next constantly, it is a wild ride! lol

    But seriously, i saw something about time travel on a discovery programme and they were talking about lost time or something, during light speed experiments.

    I'd be skeptical of that, because solid matter can't travel at the speed of light, as far as we know. CERN which is just being completed only acheives 99% the speed of light.

    I don't watch movies at the theatre very often, actually, I've never heard of "Meet the Robsinsons" :(

    I'm not surprised :).
    It's the new Disney movie. I had not heard about it either, but I have a seven year old son and it was raining today.

    It may have been one of my favorite movies ever. A lot of play on the time travelling theme, which I can't recount lest I give the story away.

    I understand and partially agree with what you are saying man, but at the same time i remember that i am on a big massive ball in the middle of a universe who's limits appears to have no boundaries and beginnings are unknown so im keeping an open mind about what is impossible!

    Maybe his arm was outstreched holding it, or maybe it is another flaw in his story.

    Damn every thing about this is weird

    Maybe we haven't reached the period in time yet that our future thinks is good enough from them to to travel back to.
