100 year old package opening

norwegian livestream of some 100 year old package to be opened in about an hour / 4:30 GMT:

noone knows what it contains!

edit: can't believe i decided to make a thread about this but not about the curiosity landing. ah well.

Presumably they know who buried it? Was it buried?

Anyway, if they do, then I should imagine they could make a very reasonable guess as to what it is.

Probably just a poem and a dried leaf.

My guesstimation: nothing of any particular interest to the average current day mind. 100 years ago, that was before those friggin two world wars (3 depending on your definition). This will be like receiving a letter from a distant planet.

I have my "WTF" by hand for right after the package is opened.

(Still excited though!) ;-)

Any other predictions as to what it could be?

Im guessing hand made shirts.

100 years ago isn't that long. I've got books older than that. It's not like century-old artefacts are rare or anything.

"There are few clues about what the package might contain. What is 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,"

This is going to suck.

Norwegian meatball recipe? Grot?

Norway had been independent from Sweden for 7 years when that was packaged...

Ive just remembered how much it sucked when Geraldo broke through into that vault that was owned by Capone or something and there was nothing there...

That piece of history is forever played in my head as a Simpsons ditty.

I saw a man in a kilt. Was he in the box?

Gwyneth Paltrow's head.

I think it's more likely to be the lost colony of Roanoke Island,than that I'm afraid.

Vsnares should release a sequal to HCCBU called 100 Year Old Package Opening, and it should sound really pleasant and organic.

Contains another package that says to open in 2112. Troll from beyond the grave.

have they opened it yet?

No they havent,theres some bird dancing about expressively at the moment.

Why all this fuzz about opening a stuffy old package? What if there's just a mummified turd in there or something equally crappy. Now there's some interpretive dance along to my favourite track from the Babel soundtrack.

so the stream runs for 9 hours now showing dancing and stuff?

nice idea to make people watch random stuff they don't care about for a whole day

How is the music and dancing in any way related to the package? There was a guy talking in a kilt a while back that looked retarded. Literally retarded.
