Prevent Roswell crash being covered up.

American Manned-Space program not being terminated (We'd be on Mars already).

I would prevent human existence. It's been nothing but a slaughter festival since day one.

My change the history wouldn’t have a butterfly effect.

It would be more like a Mothra affect .

I would go back in time prior to WW1 and find a chemist. Then I would supply him with information on penicillin along with the formula to make it.

It would save hundreds of millions of people .


I'd be the butler,
on that infamous morning,
slipping a mickey-finn to François Ferdinand, causing him to take a rain check ...

Saving untold millions of lives
21st century problems don't even exist
and we'd already have been to Mars and back

All because I went back in time and served tea to some hungarian bloke !

I thought about it and decided to save JFK from assassination.


How do we know someone didn't try?

I vaguely remember reading that the motorcade changed course unannounced beforehand. I don't know if it's true or not.

as soon as Hitler kills hisself, Josef Stalin drops dead.

USSR too busy re-aligning its ruling class to meddle in the rest of the world.
no communist domination of east/central Europe for a generation.
no cold war fears of nukes.

Prevent WW2. All those people across so many countries, cultures and religions that were wiped out in the Holocaust, who knows what some of them could have bestowed the planet with.

It's a pondering that has cropped up in my mind since childhood -- if they hadn't all been exterminated, what would have been different today?

I would go back to 2011 and buy $500 worth of Bitcoin when first offered, then return just in time for selling it off on Dec 17, of 2017. My net worth would be over $32 million.

similar discussion on another forum
many votes to nullify Kaiser Wilhelm II

no WWI. no millions of innocent young men dying for nothing, in the most horrible conditions.

no Versailles treaty --> no WWII.

no Lenin to Moscow. no USSR.

(somebody mentioned Archduke Ferdinand's assassination. even if it had never happened, WWI probably would have anyway.)
