Anyone seen the Charlie Chaplin time travel video on youtube?
Apparently in an old Charlie Chaplin film, Circus, there was some extra footage added to the DVD that was released, as a 'bonus' feature. In it, there is a very short clip of footage on the street where there are general public walking on the sidewalk and you see a lady or man (unsure) with a large fur coat holding what appears to be a long black cell phone and talking into it as he/she walks, then turning towards the camera you see him/her talking and smiling... clearly in conversation with someone on the phone.
Users have tried to explain it as being an old hearing aid that came out around that time period, which was large and cellphone-like, but why would she/he be talking to themselves??
Watch below for full explanation and story behind it with details:
Instead of a simple, much more plausible explanation like, "Oh maybe she's scratching her head, or holding her had, or blocking herself from view" (it was actually a hearing aid)...they call time travel?
Ask them why the Earth is round and they'd probably say that Zeus's goat shat us out.

Why are people so quick to disprove things. "Oh it cant be a cellphone, because theres no towers in 1924!!! durrrr". Who's to say that this person isn't a time traveler, you have zero proof against it.
Also.... its not a hearing aid, in 1924 hearing aids were ridiculously huge.
