  • It's a location radio device used by cast to maintain proper positioning and timing. Simple really...

  • Why CELLPHONE? Why is everybody so dumb?

    That's a transmission DEVICE. He's using on the ear because, oh well... He must listen?

  • wonder what the signal was like in 1928??

  • "Can you hear me now?" "Yes I can hear you loud and clear." Thanks Verizon guy. "Good."

    Can your phone do that?

  • Shes Transparent you can see through her as shes walking....look at her hat, indicates photoshop unless she was invisible too

  • she's a timelord :D

  • @belkys13 Hands free? Are u a fucking retard? We have bluetooths already invented

  • no one ever talks about her disappearing for fuck sake.

  • It looks like an iPhone 29GS-XYZ-ALPHA/OMEGA. Don't ask me, I'm not from the future ;)

  • If you know what it is, contact us...

    Nek Minit, dead.

  • If I were to make a time machine, and I went back a week, I'd materialize in empty space, because the earth would have moved away. So, how do I relocate? I don't know.

    "Beam me up Scotty?"

  • i'm pretty sure anyone who did go into the past didn't have the time, energy and resources to make a cell phone tower so his time traveler friend doesn't forget to get the bacon. and if they did go back in time, why the hell would they be using it in a film shoot.

  • KYLE PATTON WHO WORKS IN HEBRON KENTUCKY IS A HOMO!!!

  • @DAVEPRO74 he must be pissed at you

  • why do people say it's not real cause the were no phone masts in 1928 duhhh if she's just traveled through time she can do anything she's probably some kind of super witch

  • i am a time traveler too, and the lady in the film was saying "can you hear me now?" its what gave me the idea for the verizon commercial....your welcome!

  • By looking to the Black dress, i'm thinking she HIGHLY probably THE SORCERER / A MAGICIAN [or maybe something like that]...hmmmm....

  • Dont make sense to test, because nobody was visible to chat back with her. She was clearly having a good time on the phone with Somebody. And if you dis miss this as a fucking ear piece then you are a dumb ass

  • Guy got my last name!!!

  • The first hearing aid wasn't pattened until 1936, also they had large battery and antennas...

  • time travel hasn't been invented yet, so this "traveler" should be from the future and in the future cell phones won't be like that anymore, thay will all be hands-free, so it just doesn't make sense. so there

  • @belkys13 But their future would be now.......

  • @area2fred precisely! this is the kind of cell phones we have NOW and now we don't have time travel. a time traveller should be from further ahead in the future, where cell phones won't be like that anymore

  • @belkys13 Are you sure we don't have time-travel now?

  • @belkys13 how do you know all this? have you seen future cell phones? do you know when time travel eventually is invented? I really wanna know.

  • @anthonywilliams999 because i'm a time traveller myself :)

  • @belkys13 you dont know what goes on in area 51

  • @belkys13 Who says it will be hands free? Just because blue tooth exists doesn't mean it's the best and easiest and most efficient.

  • search, "iphone time traveler,"

  • That my wife ex-dorris we are from the year 3012 well not anymore after are divorce she went back to the 20s and I came back to 2011

  • all the brilliant minds in the world, and you choose someone from the University of Oklahoma?

  • @sfarmer18 because the brilliant mids of the world have more important things to do than indulge this nonsense

  • @belkys13 good point....they probably are not thinking up too much stuff @ OU and had time for this. :)

  • Audio hadn't been invented !!! All Charlie Chap films were silent with a piano playing behind the scenes of to the side of the theatre !!

  • I KNOW (woman on a radio) *air-strike in bound firing for effect* then she runs off because a ac130 comes and destorys everything and then the second world war

  • Ok, let`s assume that he really was a time traveler. Who would he be talking to? he`s the only one with a cell phone. And, a mobile device needs to connect to an antena. There were no such antenas in that time. How did he get a signal then? That person is clearly NOT using a cell phone.

  • So...How did she bring along all of the necessary supporting infrastructure? The cell tower that her hand held phone is communicating to? The land line that the cell tower must connect to in order to communicate with anyone? Before anyone posts an opinion, they should first attempt to understand how the tech works.

  • @SirThunderPants It might be a cell AFTER our time.

  • Omg, time travel. Lol. it's a hearing device

  • How come know one googles this movie and find out who she was? Then, Find out if the woman had a hearing problem. deedeedee She is a professor and can't figure that out. What a dumbass!

  • @ksktrash this was an extra, nobody knows who she was. she probably wasn't even signed on the list. movies back then were different from today, nobody cared about extras

  • @ksktrash this doesn't look like a charlie chaplin film, but a feature that features chaplin (as you can see, his name is in the back... if it was a film, it'd be his character's name). this woman looks like someone that the camera caught on the street.

  • What I really want to know is why there's A FREAKIN ZEBRA with a SADDLE?

  • They are so ruining our fantisy..

  • you know it's a shitty documentary when he's trying to explain to you that mobiles didn't exist in 1928

  • It looks like a man dressed as a woman.

  • i think they,re hiding something from us

  • it is clearly a hearing device! google the image of a 1928 hearing device and you get your answer :)

  • @sangredevina Yeah you're right but she was TALKING!!!!! how could she be talking via a hearing device! also she was walking alone by herself!

  • @cdsaudi It's a silent film, so the director(that's Chaplin himself) might be giving orders behind camera and she is just aswering to the director. there's no soundtrack on silent film(obviously) so we can't hear what she's saying. And yes, that might be a hearing device, or maybe she's just scraching her head, but SHE IS NOT A TIME TRAVELER. voilá, problem solved.

  • These guys are so stupid! Call a pro lip reader so they can see what she is saying! It will help alot

  • Just ask to director or producer for the film (probs real dead tho).

  • Only person who will ever know the truth, is the dude in front of her.

  • @iWhisPerYouSleep hahaha totally

  • One explanation: Chuck Norris's mom !

  • wormhole??? yeah right!!! i barely get 3 bars in the city!!!!! so i doubt this person can get signal through a wormhole and through another dimension!!! Verizon is not that good!!! anybody got rollover any dimension minutes???

  • Dammit you found me

  • look before it fades.. her hand has nothing inside..

  • how would she get reception..

  • Can't be time traveler, because If we ever invented a time machine, at that time we probably won't use a cell phone anymore.

  • Can't be time traveler, because If we ever invented a time machine, at that time we probably won't use a cell phone anymore.

  • @CustomFig You do know wormholes are being tested today, some scientists sent some electrons back in time 2 days.

  • That's it, wormholes. I'm convinced!

  • this has gone too far!! THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS TIMETRAVELERS.......i told myself the same thing while i was walking past a model zebra on my iphone4 the other day -_-

  • This is Spock dressed as a woman.

  • look at 1:05 wen tat other person gets in front of the person wid da phone she/he disappears

  • *be

  • its a man plus it looks like this person is see through???

    could it me a GHOST???

  • LOL tat person on the phone looks like a man

  • Bitch looks like she's having an all-out conversation to me. Hearing aid? Hmmmm.......doubt it. Cell phone? If it looks like shit, smells like shit, feels like shit, tastes like shit..... ya know.... it just might be shit.

  • Gotta love mainstream indoctrinated scientists and researchers, ofcourse they are going to downplayer ANYTHING from thinking outside the box . We must thank them for there views and the valuable insight it contains. It will enable me to close my mind down and no longer help make better decisions. It was silly of me to ever believe in anything beyond mundane human capabilities and try to expand my use of my mind to anything beyond close-minded beliefs. Thanks for your valuable help.

  • Ok this is from the government u know this because y would tey let people know this becaus cuz of riots to know more about the technology like really look at it like this they didnt have hearings aids then

  • Mr. Hyde got struck really hard on stage and has an icepack over what could be a broken tooth that he is working with his tongue.

    Or a common man in a common slicker with contrasting scarf .. holding an icepack to a nasty scratch from his girlfriend while he rehearses what he's going to tell his wife.

  • is there really anybody out there who believes this is a time traveler?

  • @Zatzzo man who really knows. Why do you think it'd be such a ridiculous thing to think?

  • tht's isn't an explanation. it's just a presumption.

  • we're ALL time travelers. there. 

  • @dontrollmeplz also your name is cool

  • @dontrollmeplz Yeah... I feel like an idiot

  • She must have pretty bad reception, considering there were no cell phone towers then

  • but look even if its a time traveler, how did she get on the set? and why would she? to show up on film? to say something even though "the rules of time travelling" forbids her to make it known that time travelling exists? it makes a story but...why would she be on the set? it does look like a cell. but maybe because were used to that action nowadays signifying cell phone usage.

  • On my list of what this looked like to me, a cell phone user from the future never ever made the top ten possibilities. I thought it was a pet bird that he was keeping warm and talking to. Who knows, maybe a pet gerbal.I think the hearing aid is highly possible. But lets not forget; haven't we all at some point put our hand to our ear on a cold day, while talking to ourselves, Cell phone my ass. She was singing the lyrics to Frampton's "Freebird".

  • One of several hearing aid devices from the 1920's...

    rexophone.comSLASHwp-contentSL­ASHuploadsSLASH2010SLASH01SLAS­HI.jpg

    It was suggested that on buying one of these that you speak into the microphone to calibrate the volume level. This lady probably just bought the device and is testing it.

  • @bretmclachlan No, I don't think so. Someone traveled back in time with a hearing device that looks like a cell phone. They either gave to a hearing aid company or had it manufactured. There is no better way to disseminate disinformation than time travel.

  • how can it be?have you ever asked how did she get to the year 1928?and is it really a mobile phone or something else?where is the woman?what is her name?

  • was it an ericsson or nokia?

  • Did cell towers get good service back then?

  • Good thing we absolutely understand everything in our oceans...oh wait. Well...we completely understand everything in space...hmm..nope, nevermind. At the very least we have a perfect governement set up in...wait...that, doesn't exist. Well....I guess when we actually DO reach a point in time were we understand more things, we can at least figure out the mysterious cell phone lady...

    PS - the way this video was presented was kinda asshole-ish. Just sayin'.

  • I'm just glad to know that when we finally get the technology to travel in time we will still be using the same phones then that we use now. ...unless.... maybe we already have time travel OMG

  • why would she test a hearing device during the filming of a movie?

  • don't fish people you moron

  • its probably just a tape recorder

  • of course, she cant be an insane woman talking to a bar of soap.

    but then again, time travel is way more possible or probable than insanity,

    specially in those days, who wouldn't miss appearing in a chaplin movie for 2 seconds rather than trying to kill hitler, that woman is a douchebag time travel.

    greetings fellow earthlings

  • MMM, That is obviously dressed more suited to a Keltic era, my estimation is that this is an alien whom has just returned from a long trip, Looks like he found a coat to try and blend in, and whats up with the show sandels? Just a thought

  • by explained you must mean broke down

  • oo ahah

    Oblitus sum dicere, tam varia, nec cognovit i i have been sermo super mobile phone catched in camera.

    Pellentesque tempus Cyborg II ad telephono mobili uti potes loqui spatia inter tempus ...

    i cant magis dicere.

  • @MrTugaUK Translated:

    My deep friendship, I ask your time, so I am a traveler, I can not say much for now, however, maybe one day the world will be ready to accept and use all my knowledge to make him a good time. The best looking in

  • Abyssus meus amicitia ,

    EGO sum vestri sic quaero vicis viator , pro iam ego cant narro ultum tamen maybe unus dies orbis terrarum ero paratus ut recipero totus meus scientia quod utor vicis eo facio bonus.

    Optimus Contemplor

  • WTF?

  • its very good that you asked an associate professor for the history of science. anything less than that would only sound like a female voice expressing a hypothesis... you know, because no one without a degree can do that. I was really under the impression that this was a time traveler. being that i don't have a degree, i never once thought that there could be a logical explanation for this video.

  • And I thought my phone coverage was good.

  • if there is a time travelling devise, we will probably never know, imagine if we could change time or terrorists got hold of it. we will never know

  • Well, speaking from personal experience, the group I am affiliated with, we often go back in time and give people cell phones equipped with dimensional technology to send the call through back to the present. We like them to call in occasionally and tell us of their day to day activities in that time. We have gone as far back as the 1600's. We have aquired a lot of information but unfornunately it is not available to the public as of yet. Sorry. Glad to see someone caught an instance of our work

  • creepy 0:53 when she looks at the camera OR IT MIGHT BE U !!!!

  • is it just me, or is she see through?

  • @tylermc14 the parts where it looks like she's see through, thats from a reflection, thats wehy it looks like see through.

  • i say its a 1920s hearing aid and why shes talking is cause she just got it and shes testing the distance by talking with a friend that possably has another one just like it and ther enjoying this new device cause i checked it out thats when they came out with these hearing aids that look black and long like a cellphone i could be wrong but its just a thought

  • Just say it was a phone, she might not even be using it properly, she might be pretending.

  • @1213camy yeah,,, just at that time the film was made if she was using a phone it would b ginormous.. either that or she's using 1/2 a phone to trip us all up ;)

  • university of oklahoma :D cause i figured it out to and i live in oklahoma its a voice recorder 8D

  • i think that womans explanation is stupid

  • man, I love worm holes, keep using them all the time, they work a treat!

  • its rose from the future lol where is the doctor? lol who ever discoverd this crap you need you head looked at why don't you track the lady down she might just take you back to let you see carlie chaplin. what a weirdo lol !

  • creepy...

  • hey i'm from 2549 and that woman is my aunt

  • I CAN ASSURE YOU ALL; THIS IS NOT A CELLULAR PHONE.  I HAVE SEEN THESE DEVICES BEFORE, IF YOU LOOK CLOSE YOU CAN SEE THE FINGERS CURVED AROUND THE HANDLE OF THIS OBJECT -_-_-_-_-_IT WORKS WITH THE USE OF FREQUENCIES _-_-_-_-_-_-_

  • Time travelers aren't fucking real... Geezus

    It must've appeared to be a cell-phone but trust me it's not.

  • @LavaLoom no shit sherlock

  • @FRIGIN05 gfto im talkin to the ppl who dont kno

  • Hi , I've been time travelling for many years now and if you want an explanation for this clip here it is:

    This is Charlie Sheen in disguise an he's obviously WINNING!

  • naw that bitch is wrong...its a cellphone

  • But the thing is it hasn't happened yet. It's not the future yet and if this was real it Probably would have been a memory to us but I know nothing about time travel so.....

  • Maybe they remade it when there was cell phones

  • The person may be accomplishing a (sound check). Even a large sea shell can be used for people to hear, may not be easy to listen and understand the varieties of frequencies. The person seems to have trouble walking also. I have seen devices of this type and they are also used for DIFFERENT purposes unknown to modern man even in this day and age.

  • Explained? That's not an explanation. It's barely even a consideration.

  • @medicinegone Thats the only explanation that makes sense. So yeah it is an explanation.

  • @medicinegone

    True. They didn't even conclude at all.

  • @medicinegone

    I agree. This is hardly an explanation.

  • Hello. I`m a time travelller. I wrote this message on the 31st of May. But you might not get it to June or later so I`ll be in the past. But in saying that, I`ll be here in the immediate future.

  • @leonardbullhock How can you Time Travel if you.. nvm

  • @leonardbullhock Screw Youtube for saying your comment is written Two Monthes ago :P.

  • @leonardbullhock if you're really a time traveler, than you need your ass seriously kicked!!!!!!!!!!! you let 9/11 and the recession and a host of other horrable other things happen!!!!!!!!!! including the birth of Justin beiber !!! now a days its not wise saying you're a time traveler

  • It could possibly someone testing out a prototype radio because of WW1 and WW2.

  • If it was a phone, how would she get a signal?

  • @TheRealLazyGamer she's calling the future LOL

  • it really looks like he or she is talking like is he or she so excited about a hearing aid that they would talk to them self or is it a real cell i mean if you really think about it with everything that is going on in this world like possible ancient aliens and the end of the world then what is the truth

  • It was Nathan Stubblefield's stolen cell phone of 1912.

    Any more questions?

  • Verizon could definitely use this to their advantage and claim she is using their services.....what up now Sprint?!

  • Did he SERIOUSLY just ask for time travelers? Really?

  • Charlie Chaplin planned this whole thing out.. he new in the future that we would have some kind of device like this and he intentionality put this in the video to mess with our heads.. Charlie is rolling over and laughing in in his grave!

  • I wonder which cell phone company she is with?

  • Is it a time traveller? Or a robot from Venus? Or Elvis chatting to Bigfoot? Come on!!? Why all do certain people NEED to jump to the most stupid concusions?

    Its probably a hearing aid, or a person testing radio communication, or Someone with a problem or two..

  • The cell phone thing isn't hard to believe. Its the fact that there would have to be many cell phone towers in the area, as each cell signal only travells a max of 5 miles. :-)

  • I drop my cellphone in a holl of worms... and now.. its lost... 0_o"

  • if it was a time traveler, you'd think they'd go to great lengths to not be uncovered. You wouldn't walk down the street and talk on your phone.

  • They are Lieying because that's me and I am the Time Traveler!!! Time Travel is possible Because I found out a Way to do it

  • tape recorder?

    

  • Looks like she is holding a phone yeah!, BUT it looks like a really big phone or rounded idk!

  • it was not explained... at all.... o.o

  • I think it is fake I mean that looks like a old cell phone like from the 90's not a new one just saying

  • Ok, the worm hole is far fetched; but also the fact that she is allegegedly using the cell at a time when there certainly was no infrastructure to provide service.

    Unless a set member comes out claiming to know what happened, I'd say you're all selling Chaplain short - he simply knew the value of communication and understood that the 'squeaky wheel gets the grease'. He worked out that communication devices, powered by content, would be the future.

    Don't hate the playah'....etc

  • Wow... so this is how you write a comment in 2011...

  • Idc how much u say it's not I will never belive u... It's a fu&king time traveler

  • suzanne moon, she's that woman from the TTPA - the time travel protection agency.

  • It's a man, baby!

    Unlimited talk, text, and web for 2 cents a month.

    It's another one of those unexplained things, that will never be explained, but fun to watch the nerds try to explain.

  • not much of an explanation, Bro!

  • i cant believe anybody's taking this shit seriously..........

  • far fetched indeed. why even suggest it's a cellphone calling trough time using wormholes in the first place ??? WTF

    if she's a time traveler she could be talking to another time traveler locally with some sort of 2-way set.

  • Hello people of the 21th century! I am a time traveler from the year 2107. In order to travel I am using the latest Iphone 98! I have noticed people here are using the Iphone 4, which only has a 5 MP

    camera!

    Apple has improved since the Iphone 4, my Iphone has a 6 MP camera!

  • She is not a time traveler, but a nazi agent, using the secret mic and earphone...Germans have invented some cool stuffs long time ago...

  • how about it is just a crazy person talking to herself

  • I googled images of 1920s hearing aids, and I'll be a SOB if some of them didn't actually look a bit like modern cell phones! So this is a reasonable explanation, to me. But I'd still like to believe it was a time traveler caught on film. Possibly a future Chaplin fan who went back to see the original premiere of his (or her) favorite Chaplin flick.

    FIY, if it is a time traveler the device would be an unknown type of communication device, but not necessarily a cell phone. 

  • if it is a time traviler she has a futrue phone that dosent need towers and this is stupidi think evryone would time travel and mess the world up there is no futrue with time travel the world is allready to smart world will end befor wecould do that stupid thing..

  • Handheld radio maybe? Either way, get a grip. No such thing as time travelling. Nobody will ever go back into the past or go into the future.

  • @LondonCAFC Traveling to the future is possible, just extremely hard to do. Look it up.
