It’s Open: Video 100 Year Old Mysterious Package Unpacking
Gudbrandsdal Museum Curator Verdens Gang says the package has been kept unopenedin the museum in Gudbrandsdal and dates back to August 26th, 1912. It carried a note from a man named Johan Nygard, specifying that it is not to be opened until 2012. As the first mayor in Sel kommune in Norway wrote on a package from 1912 “Can be opened in 2012′ .
The package weighs 3.1 kilos, is 40 cm wide, 28 cm deep and 9 cm thick, and is safely placed in one of the Gudbrandsdal museums. The package is sealed. Previously it has been placed in both archives and vaults.
The package, which has survived both World War 1 and World War 2, has been moved around in the city Otta several times. It’s just a coincidence that the package has not been lost. Several times it has actually been lost, but luckily it has always been found.
There were few clues about what the package contained. What was known is that Nygard was involved in local politics and that he reportedly walked up to the mayor and handed him the package telling him that its contents would “benefit and delight future generations,” according to a video that was posted the Verdens Gang website.
They aren’t telling what the letters and documents say…..
Without that info, whats the point in sharing the “big unwrapping…?”
Very anti-climactic.
I would have expected more of an explanation of the documents and other items…
she needs to lose some weight, I thought she was going to take it away and eat it. LOL
She said the newspaper was from 8 August 1914 how can it be 100 yrs old? by my maths that equals 98. What a farce
A newspaper in 1912, dated 1914… actually suggests that something was pre-planned
BINGO!!!!!
Or the whole thing is crap, or has been horribly tampered with…
Hmm…My first thought came when I saw them pull out a supposedly 100 year old package that had been lost more than once, then found, and most likely would have been moved and other things placed on top of it, and still even so, brown paper and what looked like possible jute string to tie it up was sure in excellent condition to be one hundred years old. like I say hmmmm……
What a let-down. First of all that did not look like a 100 year old package. Then they just thumb thru it like its nothing. Top that off with not revealing what any of it said. Got me all interested then – nothing! Bah!
Letters for the USA – from whom? Seems an odd remark to make at such a quick glance.
I thought it was interesting that the “instructions for a time machine” were in the one envelope from 1912 and the front page of a newspaper from 1914 was in the group of papers. Yes, I would be interested in finding out what all the letters etc were about. This idea doesn’t sound strange to me seeing all the experiments that have been done in the 1970s by the US government at the Montauk Project. strange stuff indeed.
