@@brianstabile165 Depends on the culture, but they'd probably reference important events in their immediate history, most likely regarding rulers. The Xth year of Emperor Y's reign. The Xth year of King Y's reign. The Xth year of the Y Dynasty. The Xth year of Consul Y and Z's period. The last one was used by the Romans if I'm not mistaken.
@@brianstabile165 Japan still uses the year of the current emperor's reign on their money as well as in other facets of their culture while, at the same time, observing the widely accepted Roman calendar and dating system
I kinda expected the entire video to be: “If you don’t see any Toyota Corollas on the roads then you’re sometime between 13.8 billion years ago and 1937, but if you do then you’re sometime between 1937 and now... good luck”
Imagine travelling back 30 seconds in time but you’re in the most isolated part of Antarctica so you have no idea if it’s still 2020 or 15 million years ago
How to entertain yourself and start an urban legend: 1. Dress in an offbeat, slightly odd but memorable fashion. 2. Run into a shop demanding to know the year. 3. When they tell you simply respond "Damn! Too early!" Then thank them and run out. 4. Exactly one year later dress in the same outfit and run into the same store and ask the same question. 5. When they answer yell "Yes! It worked! There is still time to save her!" And run out again. 2k+ likes? Thank you all. It's nice to know there are more slightly warped people like me around. The downside of so many liking the idea is that someone will run into a shop and the staff will say: "Another one? You're the third time traveller this week."
The more interesting question is how to tell if you’ve slipped into a parallel universe. Here’s a couple of obvious ways: 1. You go to a medical appointment and the doctor sees you at the time of your appointment; and 2. You go to the supermarket and your trolley runs in a straight line. How else would you tell?
Try determinate whether there are big bouts on the coast or not. If there are, you are somethere after 1400s, when Columbus got to America. Or after 1000 if you are on the east coast of Canada
Imagine a game like geoguessr but instead of being dropped somewhere random in the world your dropped into a different time period of earths history and have to figure out when it was. That would be sick.
@New New Milo Anyone would expect at most to start the video at 400 million years (I think around 450 million years ago mass extinction event happened)
you know they should make one of alternate realities because there is definitely 1 alternate reality but if we find out there is a second it will probably mean that there is infinite
You are not a part of this briefing, Mr. President. After JFK leaves - man... now we have to convince him to travel in the open top car again. He hates the idea because he knows about Gavrilo Princip.
Or, us traveling to another time while seeing that the digital year indicator on the time machine broke so we don't know what year it is. But it turns out to only be 10 years later because the corona virus ended up killing every single human in the world by 2030.
@Jiyuan Zhang, oh 😂, ok. I'm sorry then. Seriously though, can you imagine if you suddenly saw that there were no other people left at all except yourself? That would be incredibly frightening.

The guy who suffocated to death is the origin of life on earth. After he died all the microorganisms in his body spread out all over the earth. Life created life. It’s a closed-loop
post 19th century, you get only 2 answers, Victoria or QE II. Both answer won't help much coz the combination of both answers is easily more than 100 years of range.
You could also tell where you are based on what plants and animals you see. If you see people farming corn, for example, you know you're in North or South America, if you see emus, you know you're in Australia, and if you see ostriches, zebras, or lions, you know you're in Africa, at least if you see ALL of them, but if out of those three you ONLY see lions, you might be in Europe from earlier, probably between 191,000 and 57,000 years ago.
@@rileykipp5219 The stupidity of that sentence made my neck retract in cringe. Time is a part of the fabric of the universe. Everything moves in space and time. You can't move in space without moving in time. Time is something we can measure. It is affected by both gravity and speed. The clock on satellites tick at a different rate then on earth, so we have to adjust the time on them. Hell even if you take a clock on top of the Everest it ticks at a different time then on sea level. But explaining time dilation to somebody like you it's like explaining quantum mechanics to a monkey.
@@0xb1_ i mean, it would, you would still die, but atleast it's a way of dying no others can get, so you can feel special about that, a rare way of dying i guess.

It would be even worse if you ended up in Japan. Even if you knew the language, things would be difficult. "Who is the ruler of this land?" "The Emperor" "What's the emperor's name?" "He's the emperor."

@@chirpp1879 The whole idea of "common era" is a recent invention, and it's whole purpose is to reject God and Christ by offering a "replacement". Again, not historical.
@Patrick Cossack Good? I argue this: if an idea is not from God, then remove its leader here on this Earth, and the movement dies. Jesus was no fool. Can you predict the future? Only God can, and he has told this civilization much. It is the rejection of his Son, that will cause Antichrist to come. Many will side with Mr. 666 and go down to their deaths. This world system will be judged.
You may be warping time around you, messing with the timeline too much could be dangerous to the future, as time will be very different when you return.
realLifeLore 2 years ago: *why time travel to the past is impossible* 2020 basically: *if you do happen to time travel to the past, this is how to tell what year your in*
eh, could be normal at new years. I had nurses wake me up in the middle of the night and ask what day it was, checking for potential brain damage, and I was like "I don't know, is it before or after midnight?"
Me: "Great video, using what you said, I've worked out that I'm in England, seems to be between 1200 and 1400". "I tried talking to some locals, but what they said made no sense, was like present day soccer fans talking about a lost match." "Soon after, some higher up guys arrived and I tried talking to them too, but no luck, the just dragged me away and locked me in this room." "One thing seems clear it must be a cold place because as I look out the window they are gathering a huge pile of wood in the town square........"
The "Anglo-Saxons" that ruled England before the Norman Invasion came from the North Sea area of Germany (Old Saxony). They included Germanic peoples (Frisian, Jutish, Angle) who mixed with the Romanized Britons. Their language was similar to proto German, which is likely why the text was familiar to you. English changed after the Normans (from Brittany in France) invaded and took over the country.
As a Swiss person and someone who knows the lords prayer I could basically deceiver almost every word. The next one is more interesting though. There I can only recognize a few words.
Oh my god. If time doesn't exist then my time machine and me itself doesn't exist. And If both of us don't exist, how do we even get to there? Talking about "timeless" period doesn't even make any sense.
I don't think anyone would respond to "what time is it" with "Minecraft is for kids." Hello Hi I am a time traveler cool What time is it *MINECRAFT IS FOR KIDS*
Instructions unclear, there is a giant ball of fire targeting for me falling through the sky and there's a bunch of big lizards around me. By the way, I am in Chicxulub, Mexico.
@@kwipxd no i just dont think the world has ended because people have to wear a mask from time to time. i couldnt imagine being so triggered by things changing ever so slightly.
"We've successfully time travelled" "But to what year" "That's the guy, let's ask him" "What year is it?" "RLL just referenced Toyota Corola!" "We could be anywhere"
Technically we’re always moving through space, so time travel also requires us to find the exact coordinate for earth at that point in time and a way to travel there
Never thought of it like that, but makes sense. To travel back in time we’d need coordinates not just for the time period but also for the position in which the earth was (in relation to space).

Homer Simpson: "OK, don't panic; remember the advice your father gave you on your wedding day. " Grampa Simpson: "If you ever travel back in time, don't step on anything, because even the tiniest change can alter the future in ways you can't imagine."
Me: What year is it? Random guy: 2019, there's this new virus thing in China! Me: Oh, you mean the Coronavirus pandemic? Random guy:... *say sike right now*
Unexpected perils of time travel. 1) When you go back in time you get younger. You cease existing before the year of your birth. 2) Even if that doesn't happen, you don't have any memory of anything that hasn't happened to you yet. You don't even realise that you are from the future. 3) You need to synchronise travel through time with travel through space. Because the Earth is rotating, orbiting the Sun, and with the Sun and the rest of the solar system, orbiting the galaxy, and the galaxy is moving at speed away from all other galaxies, if you don't synchronise perfectly, you will end up in intergalactic space. 4) Time as a whole will continue going forward with or without you, regardless of which direction you choose to go. You may find your ability to effect events non-existent, having given up your place in the line, only able to observe impotently and unable to return.
