The time travel thread

Pax Romana? Sounds interesting. If I did it, it certainly wouldn't be for the Catholic church though!

I'd do it to destroy the catholic church! And yes its Pax Romana.

Assuming this time travel machine doesn't just move me forwards and backwards through time in the same location, I'd do a load of obvious stuff. Check out what the Aztecs were doing with those crystal skulls and shit. Watch some Celtic druid ceremonies. Visit Easter Island while it was populated. Try and meet Nostradamus, Jesus, Confucius and so on.

More importantly though, I'd travel back to the point at which football was invented and steal the ball. I'd keep moving through history and stop football and cricket from evolving at whatever point I need to.

Next I'd hand out thousands of Plan B skateboards, pairs of Globe Lutzkas and photos of Ryan Sheckler flexing his back tattoo at medieval jousts and introduce them to the concept of the X Games.

Then I'd shoot forward to the 1960s and introduce football and cricket to Californian beach dwellers.

When I return to the present, the natural order of things would be turned on its head and I would be able to watch football vs cricket rivalry play out like skateboards vs scooters.

5. witness the D-day landings (from a safe distance)

Assuming you're talking about operation neptune I reckon you'd regret watching it from any distance.

AKA the Grandfather Paradox - go back in time, kill your grandad so you are never born in the future. But then, you won't be born to go back in time and kill him, so you end up being born anyway.

I would 100% make certain that I performed that variation of this and end the life of many another people's Grandfather to prevent them existing, I have made a list but it gets complicated, less complicated than that paradox though so it's win-win.

WHERE IS THE BLOODY DELOREAN ?!?!?

I've driven a DeLorean, comfy and made in Belfast.

Help Guy Fawkes out.
See Pink Floyd.
Check out dinosaurs.
Definitely be up for going back to the 70s or something and popping some tricks.
Go back to when I was 17 and make myself do a practical qualification so I didn't work in an office for so long and also make myself smoke less weed.
