A scene shoot at the premiere of Charlie Chaplin's 1928 film "The Circus" shows a woman walking with her hands on her ears appearing as if to be talking on a cellphone. This footage has been quite a buzz since then on the internet because of course at that time there no cell phones. Now the question here is, was she really talking on a cell phone? That will be very difficult to answer since no one can say for sure whether or not what she is holding is a cell phone or something else like some hearing aid or some other hearing device since on the footage there isn't any clear view of what she is holding. But what makes many people to want to believe or to believe that is a cell phone is the fact that she appears to be talking and for all the time that she was accidentally shoot on the footage.
For that reason, many sensation loving individuals have jump to the conclusion that she is a time traveler. But for that to be true we are going to have to look at it from a more technical point of view. For example even if one time travels from one point in time to another can they have the means to communicate with the future from which they come from? If yes then would be quite interesting since it will seem to establish that even though there no satellites at that time communication could still be possible over air wave. Or that technology is not limited by time. Meaning that I could travel from 2020 back to 1789 and carry my iphone 5 with me to call my parents while in the middle of the jungle. Funny isn't it?

Also I ask myself important questions like why is it only now that this footage is being given so much attention when it has actually been around for a very long time? People answer you that our world is evolving and we get to look at thinks more critically but I say we are in a world that is more moved and absurdly responsive to sensational issues. So some people just take advantage of that fact. Nevertheless, as I already said before no matter what the truth is we will never know if she really is a time traveler or just some ordinary 1928 lady. And every one of us will just have to make our own judgement as to whether she is a time traveler or all of this was a make up.
