Opening a 30 Year Old Time Capsule
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 мар 2019
- On March 11, 1989, I made a time capsule. It has stayed sealed through all the life changes and moves. Today, on the 30 year anniversary of sealing it, I'm cracking it open!!
By popular demand, the picture I never show in the video can be found here: images.app.goo.gl/zpS2uDjw5E7...
Not earth shattering but not something I wanted my kids to see at the time...

Your dog is literally like “who cares 🙄.” Great video 😂
He always is... 🤣
Pets are pets and people are people and that's that!
This is so cute and meaningful
Wow! This is so cool to me. It made me tear up seeing how happy opening this made you! I felt your inner child awaken & it was so sweet to watch. Thank you for waiting all these years, not giving into opening it & finally sharing this moment with us, Todd! ❤️ I'm going through a lot in my life right now & just seeing your smile & true happiness looking back on fond memories from your childhood makes me happy. I'm 23 & I never did a time capsule as a child, but this makes me want to do one even now at 23 for when I am in my 50's or older to look back on with my future children one day. 🙂
It was a challenge but it made it so special when I finally did it. I highly recommend it. Do it tomorrow! Don't wait. Sooner you do it, the sooner you will be able to open it.
Thanks for the kind words. You're comment made me feel great over my silly 8th grade decision! ❤️❤️
Awesome! I dug a time capsule and not opening in 25 years, I'll probably be married and have kids but I put a soda in there and some other cool things like notes saying what's going on in the world rn and what I think will happen, great video!
I like the note to yourself. Wish I had done that!
Hope you got some stuff that can handle water getting in. Or it’ll ruin it
Awesome!
Who was waiting for him to show us the picture
Me
@@thomaswarren5794 brother
Meeeeeee
Same. What was on it?
I had the same Alf puppet!!!
Hopefully, you were as Born to Rock as I was... 🙄
@@toddrubel most definitely
This is absolutely amazing!
Loved this. I would like to see what the money looked like
It was a bunch of dirty half dollars. Might be the only thing that was worth something... Face value! 🤣
This is so sweet to watch! Great video, loved it!
I am fascinated by time capsules and other stuff that gives a look into the past, so this is great!
Thanks for posting this !
nice vid! thanks for sharing this moment!
My pleasure. Hope you enjoyed!
Great video! I recorded Star Trek eps from the TV back in the 1970's and listened to them in bed under the covers at night, too! 🖖😊 And my brother had a baseball cap piggy bank as well, though his was Cincinnati Reds! 😊
Wow, i having this project now, and i cant waited for it😊
this was great haha glad you didnt bury it like the other guy whos stuff sadly got wrecked from the wet.
Me too!! Mine was hiding in different attics across the different places I lived. Luckily, nobody had a roof leak! 😁
i love your personality omg
Nice to meet you, Todd! I am from Peru. Really cool video! Time capsules are so cool!
My dad did the same except he buried it in his backyard on August 14th 1980 when he was 10 years old
We recovered it 40 years later it contained a bunch of stuff it had a mix tape his brother made for him in the summer of 1980 which contained the latest hits at the time, a Star Wars toy, a roll of Super 8mm film which we still don’t know what’s on it, a movie stub for Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, and a letter from his 10 year old self
Which said
Today is Thursday August 14th 1980
To whoever finds this in the year 2000, send it back to me through a time portal, so I can write you back on the current events of this year which are Jimmy Carter is president of the US, the rock group Queen just released a new album, there’s a new Star Wars movie out in theatres I’m looking forward to seeing the next one
Those are the events that are happening in 1980 so please write back soon
My dad had a wild imagination about the future
We all thought The Future was soooo close... Dumb kids. 🤣🤣
Thanks for sharing that!!!!! I wish I would have seen that!!! Your dad sounds great!
_blast from the past_
This is awesome!! I have that same Alf, and my kids play with him now. I think it was a Burger King promotion.
It was from Burger King! Good memory!
Noooooo I wanted to know what was on the picture!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Very cool video!!!!!! I love this
Thanks. I wrote what the picture was in the description... Not that exciting unfortunately... 😁
I love this and now I am gonna make my own time capsule
Excellent! Good luck! Just remember to hide it away or it will be too tempting.!
This is so fucking cool to me, I have no connection to the 80s but god it was such a cool decade.
Wow!:o
My whole house is a time capsule
The kids in the back😂😂😂
ok
More curious about the Alf World Premiere
That Yankees stuff probably worth a lot of money
I'm currently 17 I'm planning on burying a time capsule. And in that time capsule it's going to going to have a DVD with a video of me giving directions to another time capsule which has old coins from the 1940s and I buried that one in 2018. I will open the time capsules in the year 2050 so I'll be 47 year old
I put cassette tapes in my capsule but I have no way to play them today. You probably won't have a DVD player. Probably better to just make a map...
@@toddrubel true
Sorry to tell you, but if the DVD contains organic dye, it probably won't last even near 30 years. If you've already made the capsule you should open it and replace the DVD with an M-Disc DVD, M-Disc Blu Ray, magnetic tape, clay tablet or something else made to last decades. Also make sure the capsule is very water tight, as groundwater can be pushed in and destroy some of the contents. Throwing in some desiccant would probably be good too, reducing the chance of condensation.
Would suck waiting 30 years only to find out the contents are destroyed, even more so than having to redo it after 2-3 years.
If you include any type of storage format (be it DVD, flash drive, etc.), include a player or device that can read it in the capsule as well.
Wow 2019 was 2 years ago jeesh I’m old
would be cool if i thought i'd make it to 30 years
It wasn't easy!! 🤣
Wow
I love bazooka Joe
Alf tho!!!
I made a time capsule with my best friend in the 90’s but he told me 20 years later that he waited a week before digging it up and taking everything home for himself! Couldn’t he have at least buried back our letters to ourselves! Jeeesh!
That sucks! Lesson learned about that friend...
Funny thing about time capsules it the person a who made it, also wants to open it later.
I just wrote a message 4 people in 2050 and put a 2020 25 cents coin in and now I’ll make a time capsule for me that I’ll open in 10 years
Go for the 30! In 10 you'll probably still remember the contents...
@@toddrubel idk I’ll be 40 in 30 years hmm
That's close to when I did it!
Omg long time
Yes it was. It was a challenge to keep it going.
👍

Making one for the year 2025!!! I’m 18
Awesome! Good luck!
Thanks!
@Haraz33 I'll check it out.
I made one at the end of 1999 when I was 20. I’m going to be opening it this year in 2020 now I’m 40. It’s been stashed in my mother’s loft.
Just waiting until I get a better camera, and it’s why I’m watching videos of other people opening theres.
@@JarlGrimmToys How did I stack up? I did mine completely off the cuff with no prep. 😏
just put it in your attic and not burried it🤔 nice..i also made time capsule but i cant burried it because our place was cemented ill just put it in a closet and sealed😊
Mine was actually in several attics as we moved. 😁 Just make sure it's in a back corner that is safe from weather and safe from eyes (including your own - aka try to lose it up there)
thanks for the suggestion open in 2035
i also click the subscribe in your page sir😊
Best time capsule I've seen so far!!! Did you find some cool coins in your piggy bank
Nothing that cool. Best thing we're some old silver dollars from the 70s...
@@toddrubel you didn't show the picture to keep hiring why it something wrong with that picture i was waiting to see it🤔
