Mr. Beat: This Time Capsule Video Took 50 Years to Make

 I saw a YouTube short with Mr. Beat where he shows himself returning to his old high school to open his own time capsule dating to his senior year. And it was amazing to see the look on his face, when he found the time capsule and all the things him and his classmates put into it.

Then I got to thinking what would I have put in my own time capsule. Well my own senior year of high school had long passed so I can only speculate. Assuming no other classmates were involved with this, I'm sure I'd leave in it stuff that I was most interested in.

Mostly popular culture I was into such as music, TV, movies, etc. Perhaps a written note (ideally printed from a computer certainly written by hand too). Perhaps a floppy disk as Mr. Beat left one in his time capsule - what would be on it would be a good question and who knew diskettes were on the way out a decade later. That would be the start but I don't want it to be as unwieldy as the one opened in Seward, Nebraska as you see depicted in Mr. Beat's video below. [VIDEO]

Very fascinating. Time capsules that we know about in all history. The one by Paul Revere and Samuel Adams and then some we know about are older than that. And then this one just opened in Nebraska this past July 4th.

Mr. Beat has a time capsule which he even schedule a video to be shared in 2075. We don't know what the world will be in yet another 50 years. Will YouTube even be around? Would even the Internet Archive?

The next question is that if you left a time capsule of your own, what would be in it?
