Charlie Brooker tends to approach Black Mirror as a show that's designed to warn the public about the present way we use technology and how it's effecting us. Even the title "Black Mirror" is a reference to what a screen becomes when you switch it off. A Black Mirror episode that focuses on our obsession with nostalgia and how it's fuelled by social media could potentially be done, but since Black Mirror tends to focus on more plausible technological developments I doubt there would be any time travel involved.
The worst thing about time travel is going back an realizing you have enough time to stop some horrible event, but you don't know enough about said event to know how to actually stop it.
Then there's those weirdos whose ADD has caused them to pointlessly obsess over past events they would go back and change if they had a time machine ever since Princess Diana was killed the evening of August 31, 1997 by some overly aggressive paparazzi and an intoxicated driver in a Paris tunnel. I'm speaking hypothetically of course.
@@TheFiddleFaddle I don’t know how I would stop it, but I do remember being at Boy Scout camp that year and hearing the news. The idea of going back in time to direct myself (I turned 11 a few days before) and my Boy Scout troop to prevent that crash would be hilarious. Would we succeed? Probably not. Would it tug the nostalgic heartstrings of aging Millenials? Probably.
Honestly, just send the CIA an anonymous letter not only warning of the attack, but also accurately predicting several unlikely happenstances over each next day until the attack so they can tell maybe they should pay attention to it; maybe bring up some government secrets that haven't been revealed yet.
It wouldn't even have to be that day. Just go back to 2000 and make predictions all year long. In fact, you might as well make an unparalleled fortune trading the markets, buy out all the airlines and cancel all flights that day much to everyone's chagrin. That way you save everyone AND become a trillionaire. Me, I'd be evil, I'd just go to a parachute manufacturer the day they were going out of business and buy their inventory, then go to the top of the towers on 9-11 and sell them for a million dollars each.
Actually the CIA FBI and NSA already knew about the attack and they still didn't take it seriously. Also the 3 agencies didn't share their data with each other due to inter-agency pissing match. So they only knew bits of the what's going on. That's why Homeland Security was created in the first place.
I shall never stop wanting to set my sights for the 1990s in the off chance I find someone with a time machine until the day I die. I will never set my sights on a later jumpback point. In 2030 I won't be like "can I go back to 2015?" NO, I'll be like "1993 or bust!"
Done. Now that we are back in the 2010's you are morally obligated to stop the COVID19 pandemic by destroying Wuhan lab, else all those innocent people will die and it would be all your fault.
No he didn't. Bush was plotting to invade Iraq before he won the election, much less 9/11. He was obsessed with Iraq and those nonexistent WMDs. 9/11 had nothing to do with it. Even with 9/11 cancelled Iraq would still have been invaded.
@@lolipedofin Might have been harder, but he was hellbent on invading Iraq before 9/11. He clearly intended to do so well before 9/11, and I doubt 9/11 changed that.
I just realized this is just like the twilight zone. Guy wants to time travel out of nostalgia, realizes he needs to fix the past, but then becomes the bad guy in the past for trying to fix the past.
...until you realize there's a thousand other terrorist attacks, mass shootings, ecological disasters (hurricanes, tornadoes, typhoons, mudslides), ethnic wars, etc etc all over the world that he willingly ignored.

People don't really want to travel back to a particular era, they just want to be children again when life was simpler and they didn't have any responsibilities.
Well, there are a lot of people that have the whole "born in the wrong era" and say they'd like to go back to the 30's or 60's because things were so spiffy back then! The clothes and music were so grand! Of course, I don't they would really love it that much.

But what if you accidentally caused your parents to never get together or in some other way caused yourself to never go back to that moment, you have to do really small changes and do them anonymously. Creating fake identity's would be very useful.
Alright i'm sick of people pretending like they are so smart by correcting someone's joke. The point of a joke is not to give information or facts, it's meant for people to laugh. By the way, the fbi AND the cia were both involved in 9/11, and in fact it was the miscommunication between those 2 agencies that ended up having the terrorists go through with it.

+SuperPiposaru Right up until you realize that as terror attacks go, 9/11 is very mild, and the only reason anyone noticed is that it happened in the US. What about the millions who died to starvation and warfare in that same time? Though it might be worthwhile to undo the damage the goverment did and is still doing after 9/11.
***** yeah , these conspiracy theorists are just really annoying , their logic is that the goverment made an inside operation to collapse the buildings to start the war with afghanistan , first off : they didn't knew about the attack before it was clear it will happen , second off : why would the goverment ignore a terrorist attack even if it didn't collapse the buildings , that doesn't make sense at all . I guess they are just typicall america haters and want to damage america's reputation by making easily debunkable conspiracy theories .
if you guys take a look again, the cut on the steel beams is impossible, it was a clean line cut which is impossible if it wasn't thermite. there's no other way around.
LargeBanana yes , adn the goverment wouldn't have any use of collapsing it . Even if the attack didnt colapse the buildings the war would happen . It would be stupid if the goverment just ignored it like it was a normal day .
Antonio Klaić That's cause you don't know that line of trucks filled with money drove off bellow the buildings days before the attack. You know, you are seem to know awfully a lot of what is in government's best interested and what are their plans. Who know, do you really think it was government? I mean, all know that president is not even informed about doings of some secret agencies and not only that but president of USA has level 5 or 6 clearance pass while there are at least 7-9. My point is, you cant know, I can suspect and with good reasons to suspect, but on the end, I still BELIEVE that it was inside job JUST like you BELIEVE it was not. Edit: Best reason why I can believe it was inside job with ease is cause USA did shit like that all the time, it's just another day of service.
In fact, without 911, the present would probably be worse. Because of it, we tightened our security and if we didn’t, there could have been several 911’s killing way more than just 3000. Plus there’s also all the indirect links with it
That’s actually how “Loose Change” got started. It was originally a fictional film about some dumb teens who discover that 9/11 was an inside job and try to prevent another one, then when producer would touch the script they wrote one in a fake documentary style, until meeting with the conspiracy theory community they realized there was a ready market if they played it up as serious.
COVID would be over a decade away and there’s only so much you can do to prevent the transfer of a virus from animals to humans. It would make more sense to be under obligation to stop the Iraq War or the Recession if traveling back to the 2000s.
It's almost impossible to prevent or stop covoid 19 the biggest issue is the unwillingness of the CCP(Chinese Communist Party) co-operate and let the international community go into Wuhan to investigate its origins the CCP even went as far as silencing the doctor who first discovered covoid 19 in December of 2019. They've spread propaganda and misinformation under reporting the number of deaths due covoid in their own country even going as far as saying the virus originated in Africa and not in Wuhan. You'd have better luck saving people from natural disaster then stop the Wuhan virus.
@@cebolenkosingcobo5122 that's not what happened. When it was still manageable China had already been in talks with america about it and what was going on but our government chose to ignore it. Kinda like how our government ignored intelligence on 911
@@cebolenkosingcobo5122 so in other words, you have to go to Beijing and blow up the Great Hall of People when the CCP members are assembled there and in process making yourself number 1 most wanted man/woman in China.
The best way to stop 9/11 would be to get eight allies, each of your board two of the planes. Be sure to get pilots liscenses before you go back in time. Taking advantage of the poor airport security, sneak onboard some weaponry. When the hijackers start to hijack, simply kill them with knives and bum-rushing techniques. Hopefully one of you survives and can use your piloting skills to safely guide the plane to safety. Airport security would get ramped up, preventing any further attacks.
+Nonuv Urbeeznus I like this method. The only problem I see is that one might not remember exactly which planes the hijackers used. Most people couldn't say where the planes took off from. But if you had a time traveling guide who could tell you stuff, like in this video, I'd say it's a good method!
Actually September 11, 2001 was bright, clear, sunny and quite seasonably warm. That kinda makes it worse somehow, than if it were a cold September morning but there it is.

@Vicente Hamel Trust me, making someone believe they are going to die have long term consequences, I almost died of a drug overdose 3 years ago and it changed me alot.
Well it would be a time paradox. You feel the urge to stop 9/11 so you time travel to stop it and if you do stop 9/11 but in doing so your future self never feels the urge to time travel and stop 9/11. Paradox. Also you don't know what you'll be changing: NSA wouldn't exist Edward Snowden would be living a regular life in America The Iraq,Afghan War probably wouldn't of happened. There might of been a different terrorist attack cause America didn't bolster the security of planes and airports.

Depends on how it works. Very well possible that, the timeline just splits creating an alternative universe where that change occurred. Meaning the timeline the person came from is unchanged. So if he/she where to ever go back, nothing would change. Its also very well possible that, using said machine will just kill you. Or bring you into the past where all you can do is observe. Or a past being eaten by langaleers. Who knows for sure though except for who ever made the machine and used it. ( If anyone actually ever does )
Benjamin Sapiens Or like in Family Guy "Back to the Pilot", The Towers doesn't fall, so Bush doesn't have anything to use in his next election campaign, and is not elected in. He goes back to Texas, refounds the Confederacy and the American Civil War starts again.
I remember that time I went back to 1909 and killed that guy in Germany. I got so much flak for killing an "innocent aspiring young artist", I went back and stopped myself from doing it.
George W. Bush would have been a boring, conservative President who continued a policy of deregulation and might not have won a second term. The main line of conflict in American politics would have been environmentalism vs. libertarian capitalism for way longer, as opposed to nationalism turning into populism vs. realism. As a result, the political camps would not have changed as drastically as they did. In Europe, the "Old Europe" social-democrat generation (Chirac, Schroeder, Blair) might have ended sooner since they would not have been able to run on the basis of being a counterweight to Bush. In consequence, their successors may not have ended up being Sarkozy, Merkel, Brown. Also, Green Day would never have had the career they so desired. Global contempt, particularly amongst young Muslims would be less. I think the long term impacts of a generation of Muslims having a concrete reason to develop, or being influenced to develop, a visceral hated of the west has yet to be felt. Putting aside terrorism/attacks directly, the political and cultural impacts of the masses developing genuine fear and hatred of the US is going to have ramifications in the years ahead. Secondly the total cost of the war is estimated to be $3 trillion all in. In the context of the the overall national debt ($21 T) its not the determining factor but it's still a huge investment in something that does not pay anything back to the country (compared to infrastructure etc).
Good analysis! But that's all assuming Wolfowitz wouldn't have convinced Bush to invade Iraq anyway. Afghan war wouldn't have happened, but the stuff about other leaders being a counterweight to Bush and Muslim resentment seems to have come more strongly from Iraq than Afghanistan despite Afghanistan lasting longer. Bush probably couldn't have won a second term if he had invaded Iraq (already fairly unpopular move by 2004 even before the intensity peaked in 2005) without any domestic attack making people feel like they needed a "war president" though. I'd say that without 9/11, his only chance of getting reelected would've been to NOT do a major invasion.
@@tifforo1 Both interesting posts. I think the neocon group (Wolfowitz et al) wouldn't have had nearly the influence. Sure, they could've taken some yellowcake to the UN but probably the most that would've come out of it was a long-term no-fly zone enforcement over the minority regions and extremely harsh sanctions. No boots would've hit the ground. No ISIS, but al Qaeda probably would continue random attacks throughout the world and still attain the flag bearer status for sympathetic groups in Asia and Africa, albeit more slowly without the stunning event to catapult them to the top. Man, if only our current political debate was centered on ecology vs. economy. What a freakin' walk in the park that would be...
To be honest your only really judging from an idealised version of the future based on the war on terror not occurring, whilst it's very likely something else of similar occurrence could have taken place, perhaps even intentionally if your a conspiracy theorist, even involving other big military threats like Russia, China and Iran. The lack of airport security was always going to result in an attack to eventually to change that. The naivety of the general public being ignorant of the consequences of globalism whilst accepting the corporate sell of "its good for us and them" ideal was never going to last either when the truth comes out and highlighting how it lowered wages and destroyed the middle class, enabled global terrorism and made the west a political correctness circus which would always lead to rising nationalism and a fight back against those who felt persecuted and that their freedom of speech was being ignored. One thing is for sure is that most of those in power during this time become insanely wealthy, powerful and are remembered mostly in a positive light when many of them should have been put into prison, told to apologise for their crimes and had their wealth taken away from them, instead we continue to live in a world that they created and benefited from, so our following politicians continue to follow them as rolemodels and uphold the system that keep them all wealthy and powerful.
OK, but without 9/11, would Bush be able to whip up support. He campaigned as a conservative opposed to Dlinton's foreign interventions in the Balkans and everywhere else.
haha right! Like he wants to stay up as a late as he wants then is told to go to bed by 9, or can't be out in the streets when it's dark. Or all his friends can only be contacted if he goes to their house cuz he never memorized their house phone numbers. Then he'd be like, "I want my freaking independence back!"
Depending on how much time he had, he might've been able to amass a huge fortune, buy out the specific airline company involved, then order security to be heightened on the day of 9/11. What companies were really taking off in the 90s, anyway? Yahoo? AOL?
Plot Twist: He kills the terroists, only to realize they didn't cause 9/11 and it was actually George Bush ordering a controlled demolition on the Towers.
Dank Bank Damn. The end of the movie he kills the terrorists only to realize it was Bush all along. Second movie he has to kill Bush. 3rd movie the time guitar stops working while there is a national manhunt for him
Oh for fucks sake it was a satire video using a common tragedy that a lot of people know about to make a joke about people wanting to "Go back to the 90's". Fuck off if you think they only care about 9/11 and crawl back under your rock.
Michael Ritchie You say that but by the end of the day 12 - 50 more people will comment that same stupid dribble and forget that the video is satire. People know about 9/11 and it's commonly joked about. That makes it funny. People still get pissy when you joke about all those drowning japanese children.
Scinf J its one more month and one more day then 9/11. That means it would be far worse. To quote Team America "It would be 9 11 times a thousand." "You mean..." "Yes, 911,000"
Yeah like wrecking Iraq and Afghanistan to prevent them from being a major world power, thereby preventing them from enslaving the planet in religious lunacy. That'd be a controversial but neat book.
Raquel Robles but then you would have to travel a lot faster than light. and you would be so far. that you would see earth as a shadow in front of the sun.
Yea that was one thing that really upsets me about many people in this country. They talk about how terrible 9/11 is (Which it absolutely was) and their patriotism about saving American lives then won't put on a damn mask cause "Muh freedomz" when we have that many Americans dying every day right now. Boggles my mind.

Knowledge of all those stocks and the time at which they all peaked would make someone with a thousand bucks easily into a billionaire by the time of the housing market crash if they started in 1991. A billionaire with the foreknowledge would have the influence and wealth to prevent the housing market crash if they knew where, when, and how to apply leverage. You might not stop 9/11, but you would stop a lot of suffering and such when it came to 2008 and onward. Might have even been able to prevent 9/11 and contributed to world peace if you had the right timing, for that matter. But maybe that's not what you meant by "Why?", so I'll explain the housing part. If you invest in housing during that time, you stand to lose massively if you don't get out a day or two before the market bubble burst. Same with Enron - if you don't pull your cash a few days before the big scandal hit, you lose it all. Trillionaire by 2008 if you hit all the market booms for each company listed above, plus maybe a couple of others. What you do with that wealth, power, influence, and fame is up to you... if time travel were real, of course.
Brother Jay Gaming You ever heard of black monday when in 1987 the stocks dropped. How would prevent 9/11? Why not just stop the islamic revolution? If you knew that you wouldn't have such a shit job in the present and need to go back and make yourself rich. How much do you make now? How come your now a real estate or stock broker? I'd rather not fuck someone over for personal gain. If you sell your Enron stock some other sucker is going to lose it all when it does collapse. I'd rather not wreck someone's life. Also what about after. Wouldn't they ask for their money back from you because the stock was low before the crash and they just changed the books.
Well he's also from the future but if he can bring himself back to the 90s he can bring a video back with him. Then he could use the video as proof that 9/11 is gonna happen and needs to be stopped.
Being honest I wouldn't change anything. I would just do some cool stuff that won't change the future or make a paradox, like this video is suggesting...
If he took him back to '99, it wouldn't even matter, and awareness of school shootings would probably not matter and no political awareness would come of it.
@@EternalShadow1667 honetly mass shootings is a very recent development in the US. I mean it's happened before columbine, but not like it is now. it's an everyday thing now.
That would only save 13 victims. You could do better than wasting the effort on that. Small potatoes compared to the 2994 I think it was on 9-11. How about giving malaysia a warning in 2004 about the impending tsunami? Or getting New Orleans to evacuate before Hurricane Katrina in 2005? Or the tsunami in Japan in March 2011. That would save more than the 9-11 escapade would. Every day there's something comparable to tiny little Columbine.
Ah, yes, the moral and ethic conundrums that come with time travel. Are we morally obligated to try and prevent certain tragedies? Is it even possible or will whatever happen happen despite our best efforts because the future is set in stone? On the one hand, stopping 9/11 would be great and you'd think it'd be the right thing to do, saving all those people. On the other hand, how would it change things? How many people would be born or not born if you stop 9/11? How would it affect America's anti-terrorism policies? One if, if not the, biggest reasons we stepped up our anti-terrorism tactics is because of 9/11.
People see terrible acts of war and terrorism as something that should always be stopped if we had the knowledge and power to do so. But that is just pure naivety, sometimes a lesser evil stops a greater evil from becoming a reality, plus also highlights the weaknesses in a society that has not been at war in so long. It showed how vulnerable we are to being attacked, imagine if instead of 9/11 we had an even bigger event of mass highjackings and assassinations of everyone in power to destabilise the country, all conducted by another superpower? As the old adage goes: If you want peace, prepare for war.
Because of your "anti-terrorism tactics" there's more terrorism now than there's ever been and a growing number of countries have been destroyed by your illegal wars.
@@Lewa500 BULLSHIT! The assholes who started the war we're in (which IS NOT illegal) haven't been able to cause as much bloodshed because of our anti-terrorism tactics!
This video makes a really good point. Like, if you go back in time, you feel obligated to stop huge tragedies from happening, like the Holocaust and 9/11. But how do you stop tragedies before they happen? Bc no one is going to believe you Bc it hasn't happened yet. No one will know what you did. If you go and kill the guy who did the Sandyhook shooting you'll be pegged as murdering an innocent person. You'll be the only one who knew that he was going to kill a bunch of innocent children and teachers. Kind of makes you wonder what if some of the random shootings that happen every day are people who time traveled back to stop other people from doing something worse? I mean logically that's obviously not true, but it's also impossible to prove that this isn't the case, you know? You there's always that little thought in the back of your mind of it being a possibility. Sorry, didn't mean to get so serious over this but it really made me think.
Embarrassing confession: I was in high school on 2011. The whole "make a wish at 11:11" was a decently big thing, and with the approach of November 11, 2011 people were talking about wishing at 11:11, kids superstition and whatnot. I'm not superstitious but I always liked trying things. I decided I would wish to go back in time with all my present memories and try to stop 9/11 from happening. I did end up unable to stay up that late and fell asleep, waking up degected the next morning.

Simple. Half an hour prior to the first plane hitting the North Tower, pull the fire alarm. You still lose the plane and the tower, but far fewer lives lost. All the better if you can come up with a plan to trigger the South Tower's fire alarm in time!
You'd probably get apprehended for pulling a fake fire alert before much could be done and people would either not leave their offices in time or go back to their offices in time for the planes to hit.

Have you never seen that family guy episode
If this was more serious, it would make a good Black Mirror episode.
especially with the concept that despite you saving thousands of lives and tragedy, you will be remembered as a monster for the rest of your life and nobody will acknowledge your sacrifice
Charlie Brooker tends to approach Black Mirror as a show that's designed to warn the public about the present way we use technology and how it's effecting us. Even the title "Black Mirror" is a reference to what a screen becomes when you switch it off. A Black Mirror episode that focuses on our obsession with nostalgia and how it's fuelled by social media could potentially be done, but since Black Mirror tends to focus on more plausible technological developments I doubt there would be any time travel involved.
@@MythicSuns meabe it would be better as an episode of a twilight zone

@@MrDiscoveryMinecraft I mean, Black Mirror is basically modern day Twilight Zone so.....same thing?
The worst thing about time travel is going back an realizing you have enough time to stop some horrible event, but you don't know enough about said event to know how to actually stop it.
Then there's those weirdos whose ADD has caused them to pointlessly obsess over past events they would go back and change if they had a time machine ever since Princess Diana was killed the evening of August 31, 1997 by some overly aggressive paparazzi and an intoxicated driver in a Paris tunnel.
I'm speaking hypothetically of course.
@@TheFiddleFaddle I don’t know how I would stop it, but I do remember being at Boy Scout camp that year and hearing the news. The idea of going back in time to direct myself (I turned 11 a few days before) and my Boy Scout troop to prevent that crash would be hilarious. Would we succeed? Probably not. Would it tug the nostalgic heartstrings of aging Millenials? Probably.
u sound like u have had to deal with this before?
Would you really completely change the course of history just to stop an event?
Oh that's easy just if you have time travel you can easily just go back to your present time to do the research and then go back again.
Honestly, just send the CIA an anonymous letter not only warning of the attack, but also accurately predicting several unlikely happenstances over each next day until the attack so they can tell maybe they should pay attention to it; maybe bring up some government secrets that haven't been revealed yet.
Oh please; every conspiracy theorist knows that the CIA was in on it.
It wouldn't even have to be that day. Just go back to 2000 and make predictions all year long. In fact, you might as well make an unparalleled fortune trading the markets, buy out all the airlines and cancel all flights that day much to everyone's chagrin. That way you save everyone AND become a trillionaire. Me, I'd be evil, I'd just go to a parachute manufacturer the day they were going out of business and buy their inventory, then go to the top of the towers on 9-11 and sell them for a million dollars each.
It's also a very great way for CIA to get on your tail and tries to find out how you suddenly knew everything.
Actually the CIA FBI and NSA already knew about the attack and they still didn't take it seriously. Also the 3 agencies didn't share their data with each other due to inter-agency pissing match. So they only knew bits of the what's going on. That's why Homeland Security was created in the first place.
Though how much do you remember that happened in that time frame that couldn't have been predicted
This idea would make an interesting movie.
limitless possibilities and concepts to explore, the kind where squeals would have a different plot altogether
Anthony Baro: I was absolutely thinking that. I wonder if they'd actually be cool with developing it as a feature. I'm totally down.

Wait, if it’s the FBI, wouldn’t they say September 11th? Have I been saying it wrong my entire life? Is my existence a lie? OH GOD!

Jet fuel doesnt melt steel beams .................................................but it weakens them enough for the building to collapse.
***** yeah , these conspiracy theorists are just really annoying , their logic is that the goverment made an inside operation to collapse the buildings to start the war with afghanistan , first off : they didn't knew about the attack before it was clear it will happen , second off : why would the goverment ignore a terrorist attack even if it didn't collapse the buildings , that doesn't make sense at all . I guess they are just typicall america haters and want to damage america's reputation by making easily debunkable conspiracy theories .
WishMasterPtolemy I am a troll as much as unicorns pooping butterflies exist .
if you guys take a look again, the cut on the steel beams is impossible, it was a clean line cut which is impossible if it wasn't thermite. there's no other way around.
LargeBanana yes , adn the goverment wouldn't have any use of collapsing it . Even if the attack didnt colapse the buildings the war would happen . It would be stupid if the goverment just ignored it like it was a normal day .
Antonio Klaić That's cause you don't know that line of trucks filled with money drove off bellow the buildings days before the attack. You know, you are seem to know awfully a lot of what is in government's best interested and what are their plans. Who know, do you really think it was government? I mean, all know that president is not even informed about doings of some secret agencies and not only that but president of USA has level 5 or 6 clearance pass while there are at least 7-9. My point is, you cant know, I can suspect and with good reasons to suspect, but on the end, I still BELIEVE that it was inside job JUST like you BELIEVE it was not.
Edit: Best reason why I can believe it was inside job with ease is cause USA did shit like that all the time, it's just another day of service.

Watch the movie "The Butterfly Effect"
That’s actually how “Loose Change” got started. It was originally a fictional film about some dumb teens who discover that 9/11 was an inside job and try to prevent another one, then when producer would touch the script they wrote one in a fake documentary style, until meeting with the conspiracy theory community they realized there was a ready market if they played it up as serious.

COVID would be over a decade away and there’s only so much you can do to prevent the transfer of a virus from animals to humans. It would make more sense to be under obligation to stop the Iraq War or the Recession if traveling back to the 2000s.
It's almost impossible to prevent or stop covoid 19 the biggest issue is the unwillingness of the CCP(Chinese Communist Party) co-operate and let the international community go into Wuhan to investigate its origins the CCP even went as far as silencing the doctor who first discovered covoid 19 in December of 2019. They've spread propaganda and misinformation under reporting the number of deaths due covoid in their own country even going as far as saying the virus originated in Africa and not in Wuhan. You'd have better luck saving people from natural disaster then stop the Wuhan virus.

The best way to stop 9/11 would be to get eight allies, each of your board two of the planes. Be sure to get pilots liscenses before you go back in time.
Taking advantage of the poor airport security, sneak onboard some weaponry. When the hijackers start to hijack, simply kill them with knives and bum-rushing techniques. Hopefully one of you survives and can use your piloting skills to safely guide the plane to safety. Airport security would get ramped up, preventing any further attacks.
+Nonuv Urbeeznus I like this method. The only problem I see is that one might not remember exactly which planes the hijackers used. Most people couldn't say where the planes took off from.
But if you had a time traveling guide who could tell you stuff, like in this video, I'd say it's a good method!

Depends on how it works. Very well possible that, the timeline just splits creating an alternative universe where that change occurred. Meaning the timeline the person came from is unchanged. So if he/she where to ever go back, nothing would change.
Its also very well possible that, using said machine will just kill you. Or bring you into the past where all you can do is observe.
Or a past being eaten by langaleers.
Who knows for sure though except for who ever made the machine and used it. ( If anyone actually ever does )

George W. Bush would have been a boring, conservative President who continued a policy of deregulation and might not have won a second term. The main line of conflict in American politics would have been environmentalism vs. libertarian capitalism for way longer, as opposed to nationalism turning into populism vs. realism. As a result, the political camps would not have changed as drastically as they did.
In Europe, the "Old Europe" social-democrat generation (Chirac, Schroeder, Blair) might have ended sooner since they would not have been able to run on the basis of being a counterweight to Bush. In consequence, their successors may not have ended up being Sarkozy, Merkel, Brown.
Also, Green Day would never have had the career they so desired.
Global contempt, particularly amongst young Muslims would be less. I think the long term impacts of a generation of Muslims having a concrete reason to develop, or being influenced to develop, a visceral hated of the west has yet to be felt. Putting aside terrorism/attacks directly, the political and cultural impacts of the masses developing genuine fear and hatred of the US is going to have ramifications in the years ahead.
Secondly the total cost of the war is estimated to be $3 trillion all in. In the context of the the overall national debt ($21 T) its not the determining factor but it's still a huge investment in something that does not pay anything back to the country (compared to infrastructure etc).
Good analysis! But that's all assuming Wolfowitz wouldn't have convinced Bush to invade Iraq anyway. Afghan war wouldn't have happened, but the stuff about other leaders being a counterweight to Bush and Muslim resentment seems to have come more strongly from Iraq than Afghanistan despite Afghanistan lasting longer. Bush probably couldn't have won a second term if he had invaded Iraq (already fairly unpopular move by 2004 even before the intensity peaked in 2005) without any domestic attack making people feel like they needed a "war president" though. I'd say that without 9/11, his only chance of getting reelected would've been to NOT do a major invasion.
@@tifforo1 Both interesting posts. I think the neocon group (Wolfowitz et al) wouldn't have had nearly the influence. Sure, they could've taken some yellowcake to the UN but probably the most that would've come out of it was a long-term no-fly zone enforcement over the minority regions and extremely harsh sanctions. No boots would've hit the ground. No ISIS, but al Qaeda probably would continue random attacks throughout the world and still attain the flag bearer status for sympathetic groups in Asia and Africa, albeit more slowly without the stunning event to catapult them to the top.
Man, if only our current political debate was centered on ecology vs. economy. What a freakin' walk in the park that would be...
To be honest your only really judging from an idealised version of the future based on the war on terror not occurring, whilst it's very likely something else of similar occurrence could have taken place, perhaps even intentionally if your a conspiracy theorist, even involving other big military threats like Russia, China and Iran. The lack of airport security was always going to result in an attack to eventually to change that. The naivety of the general public being ignorant of the consequences of globalism whilst accepting the corporate sell of "its good for us and them" ideal was never going to last either when the truth comes out and highlighting how it lowered wages and destroyed the middle class, enabled global terrorism and made the west a political correctness circus which would always lead to rising nationalism and a fight back against those who felt persecuted and that their freedom of speech was being ignored. One thing is for sure is that most of those in power during this time become insanely wealthy, powerful and are remembered mostly in a positive light when many of them should have been put into prison, told to apologise for their crimes and had their wealth taken away from them, instead we continue to live in a world that they created and benefited from, so our following politicians continue to follow them as rolemodels and uphold the system that keep them all wealthy and powerful.
Well, I’m sold, what strategy would you propose they use to prevent the attacks?
OK, but without 9/11, would Bush be able to whip up support. He campaigned as a conservative opposed to Dlinton's foreign interventions in the Balkans and everywhere else.
I was expecting Eric to realize that the 90s wasn't as good as he remembers.
That would have been funnier.
drksideofthewal That would have been too obvious.
haha right! Like he wants to stay up as a late as he wants then is told to go to bed by 9, or can't be out in the streets when it's dark. Or all his friends can only be contacted if he goes to their house cuz he never memorized their house phone numbers. Then he'd be like, "I want my freaking independence back!"

Depending on how much time he had, he might've been able to amass a huge fortune, buy out the specific airline company involved, then order security to be heightened on the day of 9/11. What companies were really taking off in the 90s, anyway? Yahoo? AOL?
He could also plant evidence on the hijackers to get them arrested and investigated

As a time traveller it would be their solemn duty to NOT mess up the timeline and let them perish, as tragic as it was.
so the only horrible thing that happend between 1990-2015 is 9/11..... only because it's in a western country doesn't mean it's more important
that's what I was thinking what about Waco ruby ridge and Oklahoma city
Oh for fucks sake it was a satire video using a common tragedy that a lot of people know about to make a joke about people wanting to "Go back to the 90's". Fuck off if you think they only care about 9/11 and crawl back under your rock.
Michael Ritchie You say that but by the end of the day 12 - 50 more people will comment that same stupid dribble and forget that the video is satire. People know about 9/11 and it's commonly joked about. That makes it funny. People still get pissy when you joke about all those drowning japanese children.
Michael Ritchie Also, if I twisted my tits the lemmings stuck between them would get hurt.

woah
10/12? That'll be amazing but... Why this particular date?

Yeah like wrecking Iraq and Afghanistan to prevent them from being a major world power, thereby preventing them from enslaving the planet in religious lunacy. That'd be a controversial but neat book.

Brother Jay Gaming Why?
Knowledge of all those stocks and the time at which they all peaked would make someone with a thousand bucks easily into a billionaire by the time of the housing market crash if they started in 1991. A billionaire with the foreknowledge would have the influence and wealth to prevent the housing market crash if they knew where, when, and how to apply leverage. You might not stop 9/11, but you would stop a lot of suffering and such when it came to 2008 and onward. Might have even been able to prevent 9/11 and contributed to world peace if you had the right timing, for that matter.
But maybe that's not what you meant by "Why?", so I'll explain the housing part. If you invest in housing during that time, you stand to lose massively if you don't get out a day or two before the market bubble burst. Same with Enron - if you don't pull your cash a few days before the big scandal hit, you lose it all. Trillionaire by 2008 if you hit all the market booms for each company listed above, plus maybe a couple of others. What you do with that wealth, power, influence, and fame is up to you... if time travel were real, of course.
Brother Jay Gaming You ever heard of black monday when in 1987 the stocks dropped. How would prevent 9/11? Why not just stop the islamic revolution? If you knew that you wouldn't have such a shit job in the present and need to go back and make yourself rich. How much do you make now? How come your now a real estate or stock broker?
I'd rather not fuck someone over for personal gain. If you sell your Enron stock some other sucker is going to lose it all when it does collapse. I'd rather not wreck someone's life. Also what about after. Wouldn't they ask for their money back from you because the stock was low before the crash and they just changed the books.
Whoa, dude! You're taking this a bit too far. This was a hypothetical scenario, not a "I need an excuse to be hostile" situation.
Why can't he just bring some video footage of 9/11 back to the 90's with him?
ArtloverHannah because the footage would Be from the future. And why in the beginning you even would try to Stop it
Well he's also from the future but if he can bring himself back to the 90s he can bring a video back with him. Then he could use the video as proof that 9/11 is gonna happen and needs to be stopped.
Everything from the future disappeared. The video would too.
He's from the future and he didn't dissapear. He'd just have to bring it on old fashioned 90s compatible technology.
ArtloverHannah because if he successfully stops 9-11, then the footage would never exist in the first place. This is a grandfather's paradox

How about giving malaysia a warning in 2004 about the impending tsunami? Or getting New Orleans to evacuate before Hurricane Katrina in 2005? Or the tsunami in Japan in March 2011. That would save more than the 9-11 escapade would. Every day there's something comparable to tiny little Columbine.

NEEEEEEEEERD
Ah, yes, the moral and ethic conundrums that come with time travel. Are we morally obligated to try and prevent certain tragedies? Is it even possible or will whatever happen happen despite our best efforts because the future is set in stone? On the one hand, stopping 9/11 would be great and you'd think it'd be the right thing to do, saving all those people. On the other hand, how would it change things? How many people would be born or not born if you stop 9/11? How would it affect America's anti-terrorism policies? One if, if not the, biggest reasons we stepped up our anti-terrorism tactics is because of 9/11.
People see terrible acts of war and terrorism as something that should always be stopped if we had the knowledge and power to do so. But that is just pure naivety, sometimes a lesser evil stops a greater evil from becoming a reality, plus also highlights the weaknesses in a society that has not been at war in so long. It showed how vulnerable we are to being attacked, imagine if instead of 9/11 we had an even bigger event of mass highjackings and assassinations of everyone in power to destabilise the country, all conducted by another superpower? As the old adage goes: If you want peace, prepare for war.
No fate but what we make. Dum Dum Dum Dadum!
As Terminator so clearly pointed out, if you mess with the timeline in any way, 9 times out of 10 you done fucked it up
Because of your "anti-terrorism tactics" there's more terrorism now than there's ever been and a growing number of countries have been destroyed by your illegal wars.
@@Lewa500 BULLSHIT! The assholes who started the war we're in (which IS NOT illegal) haven't been able to cause as much bloodshed because of our anti-terrorism tactics!
This video makes a really good point. Like, if you go back in time, you feel obligated to stop huge tragedies from happening, like the Holocaust and 9/11. But how do you stop tragedies before they happen? Bc no one is going to believe you Bc it hasn't happened yet. No one will know what you did. If you go and kill the guy who did the Sandyhook shooting you'll be pegged as murdering an innocent person. You'll be the only one who knew that he was going to kill a bunch of innocent children and teachers.
Kind of makes you wonder what if some of the random shootings that happen every day are people who time traveled back to stop other people from doing something worse? I mean logically that's obviously not true, but it's also impossible to prove that this isn't the case, you know? You there's always that little thought in the back of your mind of it being a possibility.
Sorry, didn't mean to get so serious over this but it really made me think.

Embarrassing confession: I was in high school on 2011. The whole "make a wish at 11:11" was a decently big thing, and with the approach of November 11, 2011 people were talking about wishing at 11:11, kids superstition and whatnot. I'm not superstitious but I always liked trying things. I decided I would wish to go back in time with all my present memories and try to stop 9/11 from happening. I did end up unable to stay up that late and fell asleep, waking up degected the next morning.

Simple. Half an hour prior to the first plane hitting the North Tower, pull the fire alarm. You still lose the plane and the tower, but far fewer lives lost. All the better if you can come up with a plan to trigger the South Tower's fire alarm in time!
That wouldn’t be enough time
You'd probably get apprehended for pulling a fake fire alert before much could be done and people would either not leave their offices in time or go back to their offices in time for the planes to hit.
Set the top floor on fire and disable the sprinklers
At least 2 hours and 30 minutes prior to the first attack.
