Lastly,
I would have stopped that visitor that interrupted Samuel Taylor Coleridge to go for a walk instead of finishing his poem kubla Khan. I will always hate that bastard.

Probably this photo to see how it was faked.
There is no way anyone would stand on those beams like that from so high up without any protection and worse of all shoes that look made to slip, and his feet aren't balanced flat at all.

Though I also say this one because no others come to mind. I don't really care to see any of them tbh. Would rather see what's in the future, I already get what happened in the past.

[RavVid]

Most historic events have been really really really really bad for a lot of people. War etc. Can't quite think of one that was really good for a lot of people. Will give it some thought and get back... when i can think of one of the later :)

[AviatorTom]

I'd like to already be on the moon, in the Sea of Tranquility, when Neil and Buzz touchdown on Apollo 11 in 1969. That would hopefully put an end to the Moon Landing Conspiracy.

[strateguy632]

Nobody would believe you were there!

[Static_In_The_Attic]

Doc Browns Time Machine.

[strateguy632]

The day when trump won president, when liberals screamed cried for nothing due to belief fear mongering.

I wanna relive that in history n this coming election.

[abc3643]

The death of my ex-girlfriend's husband but that hasn't happened yet and likely will not happen in my lifetime.

[sobg1124]

That one is easily. VJ day. My father and grandfather told me all about it. Everyone, I mean, everyone, celebrating in the streets, driving on the sidewalk, whooping it up. That really must have been something to witness!

[exitseven]

The signing of the Declaration of Independence.

[DrPepper12]

Why?

[exitseven]

@DrPepper12 It would be amazing to see the original cast in the same room. Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, John Hancock and Samuel Adams. I could discuss electrical theory with Ben Franklin and Government with Thomas Jefferson. Samuel Adams could give me some pointers on making beer,

[sobg1124]

Now, that would have been epic!

[thearchjoker]

The last time a space shuttle landed on earth. these days we only work with rockets

[strateguy632]

But it lands like any plane you can see.

[thearchjoker]

@strateguy632 but they don't fly no more

[Lliam]

Alexander being greeted by the Egyptian pharaoh in 332 bc.

[DrPepper12]

Excellent choice 👌🏻

[Avicenna]

The signing of the Magna Carta would have been epic

[OddBeMe]

I already experienced OJ, 9/11, balloon boy, global depression, global pandemic, and a president telling a black audience about “black jobs”

[beefcakebradybatson]

The fall of the Berlin Wall, which began Communism's much-deserved end.

[Staximus]

I'd like to see how they built the great pyramid of Geezer

[goaded]

Why am I picturing a pyramid with a Trilby? C:

[OtterMan68]

Fall of the Berlin Wall - the day they realized the guards had abandoned their posts

[llorando]

The destruction of the dinosaurs, would be interesting to see how they went extinct.

[strateguy632]

I say it was a man made virus because dinosaurs were killing humans so they made a virus for that but it backfired n killed some people too.

"Tanis: Fossil found of dinosaur killed in asteroid strike, scientists claim
Watch: Sir David Attenborough seeks expert help to understand the significance of the fossil leg

Scientists have presented a stunningly preserved leg of a dinosaur.

The limb, complete with skin, is just one of a series of remarkable finds emerging from the Tanis fossil site in the US State of North Dakota.

But it's not just their exquisite condition that's turning heads - it's what these ancient specimens are purported to represent.

The claim is the Tanis creatures were killed and entombed on the actual day a giant asteroid struck Earth.

The day 66 million years ago when the reign of the dinosaurs ended and the rise of mammals began."

[Ladsin2]

There were at least 5 mass extinction events which resulted in the death of ~90% of the species on planet earth. Which one would be most interesting to experience?

[goaded]

@Ladsin2 Probably the ones where you could breathe.

[Ladsin2]

@goaded Likely still die in the extinction event even if you could breathe.

[goaded]

@Ladsin2 Duck and cover, man, duck and cover!

[Dongie]

Have lunch the day Jesus fed the multitudes. There it is. Hanging out speaking to Jesus in English.

[Ladsin2]

It'd be pretty cool to see the Early Roman Empire. Maybe see if Socrates is all he's cracked up to be or not.

[Anonymous]

Immaculate conception to see if she was really a virgin.

[strateguy632]

But how would you find out?

[goaded]

Maybe it was you!
