    Here’s a list of everything inside the time capsule:

    Movies, including Home Alone and Back to the Future on VHS
    CDs, including Please Hammer, Don’t Hurt ’Em by MC Hammer and Michael Jackson's Dangerous album
    A Nintendo Game Boy
    Rollerblades
    Reebok Pump sneakers
    A jar of Gak, at the request of a Dr. Emmett Brown impersonator, who showed up in a real DeLorean and fake hair
    One of Joey Lawrence’s “Whoa! ’92” hats, which he stopped by to present
    News reports, including coverage of the AIDS crisis, Desert Storm, and the end of the Soviet Union
    Books, including a world atlas, history book, comic book, phone book, the Orlando TV Guide for the week of April 30, 1992, and a copy of the Book of Endangered Species
    An issue of Nickelodeon magazine
    A Nicktoons t-shirt featuring Ren & Stimpy
    A piece of the Berlin Wall
    A Barbie doll
    Pencils
    A skateboard
    A baseball
    Twinkies
    A stick of bubble gum (though no one seems to know which kind)
    Photos of things too big (or alive) to fit inside, including bicycles, planes, trains, cars, politicians and celebrities
    A videotape, which was a recording of the live ceremony, shot by a girl named Vicky who stood onstage to operate the Kid Cam
    The camera recording the tape, which appears to have been unplanned—Mike O’Malley and Joey Lawrence both looked baffled about how to remove the tape from the camera, so the whole setup was tossed in at the last minute
