Well, they say what he's wearing is accurate for the time period he was in. I would have thought that if they did have time travel in the future, you couldn't interfere with the past, no matter how tempting it is to kill Hitler well before he led Germany to self-destruction.
Reopening of the South Fork Bridge after flood in Nov. 1940.
1941 (?)
South Fork Bridge, Gold Bridge, B.C. Canada
The man with what appears to be very modern sunglasses seems to be wearing a stamped T-shirt with a nice sweater, all the while holding a portable compact camera!
Unless he's holding a flux capacitor it's not the real deal.

Clear conclusion:
Even if something looks out of time in old pictures, looking at it in detail you notice it might just have been ahead of the rest, looking differently.
I understand the excitement, do not participate though.

He's wearing period style Wayfarers with some kind of shielding at the sides. His 'stamped T-shirt is a pattern knitted sweater and his portable compact camera is a box-brownie or the like. Myth busted.

Killing Hitler before he comes to power is killing an innocent man.

Given the decline of the standard of dress since those days, I wouldn't be surprised if he was from the future.
Alternatively, this may be an even more important archeological finding: The first modern douchebag.

hahaha some real funny comments right there 
I just found it interesting and thought i'd share it here. Didn't really think that he was from the future, just photo shopped into the image, but wouldnt they people in the museum have realised that??

Reading the article it seems inconclusive wether he was or was not photoshopped into the image. However they do say that even if he was all of his clothing is consistent with the time period. While they do not conclusively come out and say it in the article, they have basically debunked the myth.

I think you are right, he was probably down way before his time, a cool guy no doubt 👍

I'd time travel to tell Kaz that the world's future is depending on GT5 when he is making GT1.

Depends...
Most people think time is linear, but in reality most recent studies show its not. Depending on what theory that counts, you could go back and change stuff, as it wouldn't be "back". Some theorys have "time" going backwards, others have everything happen at once. And others again have multiple things happening at the same time, with different solutions to given situations, and multiverses.
Time paradox's are fun. indeed.

I cannot imagine a world without WW2, the aftermath and the Baby Boomers that followed afterward. Without the baby boomers, certain TV shows may have not become successful, certain cars may not have been designed or built, the issue of human rights probably would not have been addressed until far later. Vietnam, the war protesters, rock bands like the Beatles, muscle cars, mid-engined supercars, I could go on and on. WW2's legacy still has an impact on us today. Not to mention technology like radar, and jet engined planes (that's a big one). I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Besides, would you really want a C&C Red Alert universe where the Soviets became the aggressors instead?

On the time travel theme, Stephen Hawking recently outlines three possible methods for time travel:
