    Time Traveller caught on tape?

    I came across this tonight. Whats your take on this?

    Please watch entire video and explain what we are seeing here. To me it looks like a guy dressed as a female. No mobile phones in the 20's though!!

        Ha! Yeah, Roger Ebert posted this on twitter as well. Pretty amusing stuff.

        Check out this clip from "Bye Bye Birdie" - got to 1:46 in:

            It's probably a fat lady scratching her chin or trying to hide from the camera, cause you know... she's probably ugly, and doesn't want her Kim Basinger sized man-hands caught on film.

            I mean, seriously, any see her hands in Batman? HUGE man hands.

              Could be a reporter talking into a recording device of the time ... ie, a tape recorder with old fashoned square microphone.

                  >A man named Valdemar Poulsen was the first to use magnetic recording in 1898; however it was not until the late 1930's that tape recording as we more commonly know it was developed

                  same with walkie talkie, wasnt really used until late 30's, 10 years after this.

                      she has a receiver to a simple crystal radio (which picks up only the strongest radio single in the area), they were very popular in mid to late 20's
                      the hand receiver is possibly bigger than the radio.many companies put instruction books on how to make one with house hold items.

                            The power of suggestion plus matrixing equals time traveler.
                            You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                              This is weird and freaky. It creeps me out.
