Can they now just rip it open now? The suspense is killing me:):) I bet they already had a peek and re wrapped it.





It's going be a big let down. Some time capsule made by people with bits of crap in it:(

A mouldy sangwich...

Duggy747

A dirty shìte that's gone all white and dusty now.

"Dear Norwegians of the future,

When you invent time machines can you come and get us? It sucks here in the year 1912. Also it will be nice to be in a time when people aren't still talking about this 'unsinkable' Titanic disaster.

Yours sincerely,

Present Day Norwegians."

Please be nudey photos, please be nudey photos.

Stinicker

I installed a load of these time capsules into the foundations of the house and also inside the windows when they were being installed. Just stupid mundane stuff but will be cool for those who find it in a few decades.

MHalberstram

Probably some confession from a priest about riding his housekeeper/schoolchildren/farm animals

Will it be on RTE or BBC cause the live stream yoke wont work on my computer, is there any other link? And is it on at 5 or 4?

fishy fishy

It says that it is 99 years and 363 days old. Could they not just wait the extra 3 days?

Herring. The Norwegians love their pickled herring.

It's live!!!

tune in for really bad television presenting. How they're going to stretch this out for the next hour is beyond me.

Where is it live? I'm still seeing the pre-program thing.

Genghiz Cohen

It actually contains another parcel that says "Do not open until Aug 26th 2112".

The guy on it said 6:30 their time which he said was 4pm GMT (our time). Didn't know there were time differences to the half hour?

CrazyRabbit

Inside, there will be instructions on how to tell the difference between GMT, BST & CEST.

Hopefully.

live stream, solid connection all day.

"To be opened at 6pm (4pm GMT)"

Ireland is GMT+1 for the summer (i.e. tune in @5pm)

Short piece on it here with English subtitles http://www.vgtv.no/#!id=55551

Rheo

It will be a series of envelopes, each smaller than the last. The final envelope will contain a small slip of paper with two words written on it: "The game"

Naw, it's probably some type of clothing like a jumper or some crap.

godtabh

It will say "you opened it on the wrong days you dip ****s"

I really hope it the answer to the getting figs into a fig roll dilemma

Laika1986

Today's newspaper

Tabnabs

LOL, a load of old folks with Norwegian bogger accents just turned up and freaked the cameraman out :pac:

Shryke

Nostradamus type stuff would be fun, a bottle of wine would be great if the package was addressed to me. Mjölnir, Thors hammer, marking a return of the thunder God would be OK too.

Tabnabs

One hour to go...

Faolchu

The goberments spine

They should get techno Viking to open it, he could have a little dance around while hes at it:!

And inside it contained!

Tabnabs

Reporter just announced half five (Irish time) opening.

Sleepy

and an epic moustache!

Tabnabs

You just know they'll take a sneaky peak and swap it for something like an iPhone in bubblewrap if it's just an old newspaper or painting.

westendgirlie

I am all excited.

This means I am destined for a big disappointment!

ChunkyLover_53

Well, was it Gwyneth Paltrows head or what?

I have no sound. Why have the put it in a box on the floor

Maybe the old mayor was a major troll and it's actually a shrinkwrapped 100 year old ham sandwich.

Sleepy

eh, what? Why did she just put it in a tupperware container?

smellslikeshoes

I'm thinking 100 year old Norwegian porn.

wyrn

I know I only heard about this from the OP this morning, but I can't wait to see what's inside. I bet it's a book of memoirs from the Norwegian version of Peig
