I thought about this for a few minutes. At first I thought watching the failed assassination attempt of Hitler might be interesting. I wonder if the German officer who planted the briefcase bomb had sweat trickling down his brow. I wonder what the reaction was after the bomb went off. If Hitler wet himself. If everyone left, running and screaming out of the room. Insider details like that.
Unfortunately, all the famous events that took place in a moment in time are usually the bad ones. The good things in the world take time to slowly build up. Rome wasn't built in a day. But the WTC did fall in a day when the planes hit.
At first, trying to come up with something good, the only thing I could think of was Jesse Owens, the black American, winning at the Olympics in Nazi Germany.
Thinking about "Good," I immediately started thinking about religion. What if I went back to witness the miracles religions are based on. Get to see if they really happened. Yeah, that's it. I'd go back and watch the tomb to see if Jesus really did rise from the dead. That's what I'd do. Put the tomb under surveillence. I would drink some invisible coffe to stay awake while I was standing there as my invisible self, and see if that rock moved.
