You decide...

Is this a time traveler? Looks like someone using a cell phone, in 1928.

Be sure to watch the footage at the bottom.

Just for fun lets say she is a time traveler and did manage to bring a cell phone back to 1928.... my two questions are what carrier is she using, and who is she talking to?

Watched the footage, I'll admit, it is rather odd behavior for someone to have in the pre-cell phone era.

it's impossible unless there were satelites and cell phone carriers that went back in time as well...

Maybe she is not a time traveler but an alien talking to the mothership or maybe she was just crazy.
