100-Year-Old Mysterious Package is Opened

submitted by pumkinandstorm

1 decade 2 years 6 months 3 weeks ago

Mystery

(youtube) Story: The first mayor in Sel kommune in Norway wrote «Can be opened in 2012» on a package from 1912. Johan Nygaard then decided to give the package to the administration of Sel in the late 1920s. They got the package on one condition: You can not open the package until 2012. And the encouragement has been followed. No one has opened the mysterious package, and no one has any idea what's in the package.

All very fine and dandy but I don't speak the language and still have no idea what was in the package.

Details! - please

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Best thing since Gilraldo opened Al Capone's vault

I wanted it to say the world ends on Dec. 21 2012

If the newspaper is from August 1914 , it makes the whole story (and video title) bogus.

It contains the instructions for building a time machine!>> ^Sagemind:
