The 30 minutes prior and to when Jesus raised Lazurus from the dead. I would observe the body closely to determine if in fact he was dead, and watch him be brought back to life.

Pretty hard to argue against him being the Son of God if he did this..

I would like to go see the first man and would like to experience the first moments after the birth of the universe. I would be able to answer man's biggest questions.

I'm not sure how much impact 30 minutes would have to affect 9/11, but I'd sure as hell try.

How would you best spend 30 minutes prior to 9/11 attacks that would actually impact/reduce the lives lost?

Maybe call in a bomb threat to the towers and Pentagon?!? Something that would force an evacuation of the buildings impacted. It would have little impact on the individuals in the planes but it would save hundreds, maybe thousands of people.

What could be done in 30 minutes that would keep all four of those planes out of the sky and not just delay it to another day?

The lottery is the only correct answer. It would have to be a recent one. Find the most recent large jack pot with no winners purchase ticket. Come back after your 30 minutes and cash ticket. You have upto a year to claim.

September of 1990... I'd be a fly on the wall in the the workshop of Jim Sanborn, and find out once and for all how to decode the 4th paragraph of KRYPTOS.

Zodiac Killler- find out who he really is.

Or find out what happened to MH370 by being a fly on the wall... assuming we live through it in your hypo.

There's a little show called Timeless that was on the last couple of years...not sure if it has come up in this thread or not. BUT, it is a show, a lot like this thread...

Check it out!

You're right but there was going to be a WWI with or without Princip.

Apple stock was at its All time low of 0.21 cents per share. Put 1000 on it. Today that would be 266,666 shares. With stock splits. At 219.63 a share that would be worth $58,568,000

Buying 10,000s of bitcoin at fractions of a cent per destroys this.

Careful, I’ll assume your dad was a Gump too.

You might not want to watch 30 minutes of Gumpiness.
