If you can travel back to the past....

[SuperiorIronman]

Give a record of the future in all its forms to Walt Disney and task him and his company to make it early.

[PaulBullion]

Travel to 1998 and kidnap Ralph Nader and take him to a deserted island for 2 years.

1. Warn people about 9/11(though I doubt people would listen, society was in a different mindset back then)
2. Go back in time and win the lottery, because I already know the numbers.
3. Invest in a major company like Apple or google, before it was popular.
4. I wouldn’t really travel to any point in time before the 1970’s. Those days were horrific for people like me.

I want to arrive in time 30 seconds before the "Big Bang".

That would be awesome! ...for the few seconds before the radiation turned you into an overdone french fry...

Time didn't really have any meaning back then. Time basically stops long before the singularity. I doubt you could get anywhen near the Big Bang.

Especially considering that there was nowhere to go to. Like, for real, no space at all save for the singularity.

Travel to the past...well there's 1986 so I could see Queen's final concert, or one of them at least, with Freddie Mercury. I would've loved to see them live. So that's a fun one I'd like to do, as well of course as being able to go back and see some of the best Liverpool Teams in the past from when we dominated the league and Europe even. Seeing Dinosaurs would be awesome as well, unless one of the Predators like T-Rex spotted me LOL.


They're the fun stuff obviously but on a more serious note, obviously there're events in the past that I'd like to either try and stop myself or at least give people a better warning about.

I have these inner monologues about this idea, and honestly, I'd go back to before I traumatized a social worker who wanted to interview children living in a homeless shelter to see how it affects them psychologically.

TMI, but when you call someone "Toilet Face" and look back with great shame, it's something that I wish I could undo.

[Mister Mets]

I'd be wary of doing anything to change the past.

I think I'd try to bring endangered species, and works of literature to the present.

And Silphium. Exclusive sales rights for a natural form of birth control would make a person a billionaire today.

I'd go see dinosaurs.

I think this is the only answer I really like in this thread.

Most of the other ones I think are bound to end in disappointment.

But dinosaurs? Yeah, that would be awesome.

Thanks. As an older board member, I am a bit amused by others wanting to go back to times I lived through.

Not sure exactly everywhere I'd go, as there were many things before I was born that I'd love to experience first hand and several times I'm nostalgic about from my early life. One thing is certain - I'm bringing back a supply of modern conveniences like TP, Antibiotics, clean water/food, and more stored in whatever my conveyance is.

Well in my time travels you can only go back as a "Holographic Observer", not a flesh and blood being, you can only observe and record, not interfere or be an integral part of the event.

Now I know how my parents must have felt when I would tell them I would have liked to have experienced the '50s.
