Creed Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Say when you die you get to chose 5 events in history to travel back in time and expierence the event "live". You have to be an innocent bystander and can't interact and change the course of history. What five events would you want to see? Mine are - in no particular order: 1. Kennedy assassination 2. Miracle on Ice (only sporting event and I hate hockey) 3. Any random day in my parent's childhood - example my Dad's 5th birthday back in the 1930's. 4. D day in Normady 5. Jesus' crucifiction. 1 Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 5. Caesar in Egypt at the time of Pompey's death 4. The Philadelphia Convention in 1787 3. Painting of the Sistine Chapel (yeah, I intend to draw out and prolong my free post-death experience.) 2. Dinosaurs 1. The Big Bang. Cool topic, by the way! Fun to think about. Parent's childhood is a good one, too, I would put that on there as well, but I wanted to have a distinct list. Quote Link to comment

Creed Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 One day at Auschwitz-Birkenau A day with a T-Rex (Preferably a day when it killed something important) Being at Aushwitz-Birkenau "live" and knowing all the history would be indescribable. I also thought about the T-Rex thing or just going back to where my childhood home is but 300+ years ago before the area had civilization (except maybe some indians). Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 One day at Auschwitz-Birkenau A day with a T-Rex (Preferably a day when it killed something important) Being at Aushwitz-Birkenau "live" and knowing all the history would be indescribable. I also thought about the T-Rex thing or just going back to where my childhood home is but 300+ years ago before the area had civilization (except maybe some indians). I would lump the "Battle of the Bulge" in with Aushwitz also. I love watching and reading things about WWII and would have to say that I would travel back to that time. I would also visit the Phillipines and witness the Bataan Death March. Quote Link to comment
wildman Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 ok mine would be 1. watch any of the major battles of the civil war 2. to the date and time that Bill Clinton supposedly didn't in hale. Just so I can witness it and call him a liar 3. Kennedy's assasination (wasn't thinking this one till I read it above, great idea Creed) 4. Mayans to find out the truth of the 12/21/2012 date. 5. The resurection of Jesus (to see if he actually gets up and brushs dirt of his clothes. Or if his body was stolen as a cruel prank.) Quote Link to comment
