Charlie Chaplin Time Traveler: Do People Believe Time Traveler Caught On Film Theory? (Video)
Do you believe the Charlie Chaplin Time Traveler theory?
By now, I’m sure that you know about the whole Charlie Chaplin Time Traveler video. Basically, a video from a 1920s Charlie Chaplin movie shows what some people are deeming “A Time Traveler Caught On Film.” There is a man who walks into the frame who looks like he is talking on a cell phone.
Really? A Time Traveler? Isn’t that stuff usually reserved for science fiction movies?
Not in this case. If you missed it, you can watch the video clip below of the now famous Charlie Chaplin Time Traveler.
There are many theories on what this clip from “The Circus” could be other than a time traveler talking on a cell phone, from early hearing aids, to some sort of ice pack to soothe a tooth ache. But the craziest part is that some people seem to be buying into the time travel theory.
What do you think? Do you think that a time traveler was actually caught on film? How will you explain this video to your kids if they ask about it?

Gman commented on Oct 28 10 at 12:48 pmIf it is a “cell phone” then she must have brought a cell phone communications tower and all the technology hardware required back in time wiht her. As we all should know, cell phones do not operate independently.
Jackie commented on Oct 28 10 at 12:51 pmEven if you traveled to 1920 do you really think your cell phone would work with no cell towers???
Darryl commented on Oct 28 10 at 8:51 pmThis is a great editing job, but a total fake. The movie lines and the reflection effect only appear when the time traveler is present. For most people that’s hard to notice. A much more easier thing to notice is the shadow that is present on the time travelers coat when passing behind the zebra but there is no shadow on the mans pants.
steve commented on Oct 31 10 at 4:43 amShe has something in here hand? After looking at the footage over and over. It does look like what ould be a cell phone. It is odd but she does look like she is holding a conversation with someone. But take a closer look at the end when she turns. She looks like she laughing but take a closer at her hand! She definitely has something in here hand, its not bulky either! makes you think!
