Back at my old primary school, my school had a time capsule that was buried in 1920 and suppose to be opened in 2020 but due to Covid, we never got to open it😒😔 im in year 8 now

Time is a companion that walks with you through life. Reminding us to cherish every moment.

I remember my class putting together and sealing up a time capsule when I was in the second grade back in 1990 and our school moved into a brand new building. It may have “only” been 33 years ago, but I’d still love to be able to open the capsule and see what I and my seven year old classmates put into that capsule at the dawn of the 1990’s.

If I were to create a time capsule some of the things I’d put in it are: a newspaper for that day, a set of current coins, a photograph of my family, a few toys that are currently in trend (e.g. in 2023 a squishmallow & 5 surprise mystery ball), a list of the top movies and music currently in the charts, the price of grocery staples (E.g. milk, bread, eggs, baked beans, butter, tea bags, etc.).

I have made a personal time capsule. I have been a digital artist since 1983 - Commodore 64 - Amiga - Mac and PC. I have saved all of those Art files (plus some of my favorite music and movies) onto a rugged Military Spec flash drive. Then I put the drive in a steel box and filled the box with reinforced concrete. The outside of the time capsule looks exactly like an Airplane's "Black Box". (It is Day-Glo orange with reflective white stripes.) Inside of the box is an aluminum panel describing what is inside of the concrete and how to open it.

We have a time capsule in the foundations of our house! We had an extension built in 1999/2000 and we thought because it was the turn of the millennium, it was a perfect time to plant one. It’s to be opened 01-01-2100. We put tickets to the local flower show, a newspaper, some photos of us, coins and a couple of pound notes, a few of my toys, some art I made in primary school, my primary school uniform and some of our trinkets. We hope whoever finds it gets some enjoyment out of it!

After 6, 000 years, I SEVERELY doubt the media stored in the capsule (books and tape recordings) will even be intact, let alone legible.

me among a group of Christians made a capsule about 3 years ago. i'm not entirely sure where it was buried, but i remember adding notes to it writing about Covid and how things have been. not sure when it's supposed to be dug up, but i think i'll remind the leaders about it so it's not forgotten before i eventually leave the group. (they are the ones who buried it) all i know is that it's likely buried somewhere around the building. i think we may have added a few items as well, but i have forgotten what those items are.

There was a lot more in the Salt Lake Temple capsule. Photos, news clippings, a copy of the Book of Mormon, and a few other bits. I live down the street, and I am LDS (Mormon). They've been rehabbing the Temple and it's set to reopen next year.

Job security for the archaeologists of the future. Some of these will be "lost" to time before eventually being rediscovered, if there's even anyone left by then.

I get so pissed off when i think about how i wont be alive when these things are opened😤. Anyways, Great video!

[Daldiepie]

for the 100 years film i just wish i live long enough just to see it, sure i might be 105 when it primieres but forget about it I JUST WANT TO SEE IT

When we poured a new sidewalk up to our house back in about 2005, we made a time capsule out of pvc pipe and buried it at a specific spot near edge of the sidewalk, where we could get to it when we are ready. Each person added one item-a Diet Coke, Pokemon card, Lightning McQueen car, a letter telling about our family and current events, photos of us and a Twinkie. At least, that’s what I remember. We haven’t decided when we will open it yet.

@ 2:56 it’s in two

7:27 I love how the other guy included a brand new car and Steve Jobs just included a mouse instead of the full computer.

I’ve been watching your videos for years now and they’re always so fun even when I’m so bored these videos are just amazing and get the boredom away😊

[frog]

We should put the slaughterhouse footage in the capsules, that way, future people will be grateful for the time they live in.

In 1983 here in Sydney my mathematics teacher convinced the school to buy 20 Apple 2Es they were only $2000 AUD and in the holidays we could take them home if we could afford the replacement cost if it was damaged. No windows then but you needed a boot disk to get it working and the most common programming language was basic. During that time they produced the mouse which made things a bit easier. We got the computers because my mathematics teacher developed a HSC course in computer studies it was approved by the board of education but not assessable for your HSC aggregate. It was boring my favourite program was Line 10 print words, line 20 goto 10 and the screen would fill up with whatever you told it to print.

It looked like this
10 print "this sucks"
20 goto 10
