  Call the movie “Back to the Stoneage”. Then send a tech billionaire to the past where nobody gives a fuck about them and they have to work to survive for the first time in their pathetic lives.

    If they have to work to survive, maybe any time from the 1800s on would work. You imagine a genius from the modern day, with all his knowledge, could blow the competition out of the water, create a one-man technological revolution, and radically change the course of human events!

    …until you realize he’s not actually a genius. He’s a dumbass. He just owned capital that other people used to do things. So if you remove him from his money and even name recognition, he’s just some loser who keeps asking if ketamine has been invented yet.

      Even if you throw a real modern day genius with all his knowledge, an impeccable work ethic and a real can-do attitude into an 1800s factory as a floor worker, they’ll turn into a sleep-deprived, hopeless, chain-smoking alcoholic within a month, just like everyone else.

      There was a Twilight Zone episode like that.

    Cam we make it a documentary about sending Elon and a bunch of other tech billionaires to Mars? That way we can enjoy it when their ship breaks up and they all die in space.

      I like this. If they make it to Mars they get a survival habitat where we can vote them off, one by one

        I’d say the Discovery Channel could show it, but I definitely want David Zaslav on that ship, so who would put it on there?
