Flux Capacitor joke on reporter

[JohnnyTheFox]

Often the media is too quick to want to break news that they don't bother to fact check their information. This was the case for this lady when reporting about a skydiving jump plane accident ("crash landing") in Cranland Airport in Hanson, Massachusetts. What is hard to believe is that this person has not seen the movie "Back to the Future" or maybe she thought that was real?

The third and final Back To The Future movie was released in 1990. Millennials were born between 1981 and 1996. She was born in 1984. Looks like you were right but did teenagers like her in the late 90's typically considered popular late 80's movies as lame and not worth watching? Oh well.

lol. There is a literal long laundry list of alphabets that could easily supplement that observation--with the only possible exception being PBS.

Well that is awesome and all but the real question is whether you can do anything to fix Doc's hair? Now THAT would be impressive.

Looooool.

I've used that joke throughout the years and only recently started noticing folks weren't sure of what I was referencing.

Old age...
