You are sent back 100 years.

You have been sent back to the year 1915 to the exact geographical location you are in now. The only way for you to return to the present is to completely convince 10 people that you are in fact from the future. How do you accomplish this?

 
- I travel to meet with Nikola Tesla

- I show him my iPhone 6

There's person number one. I'd be afraid to show Edison, who may believe it, but who would want to cash in on it. I'd fear for my safety. Tesla may know of others I could convince.

 
I am trying really hard to come up with a convincing answer but I'm stuck. In the year 2015 we have watched technology develop so fast that Its nearly impossible to keep up. Yet, if you tell someone you are from the future they'll most likely call you some very mean names. It seems like 100 years ago, where the technology was so far off from developing anything even close to time travel, they would not only call you mean names, but possibly burn you at the stake as well. I think I would probably just make myself comfortable and hope that eventually I made enough good friends that I could possibly convince them.

 
I'll find Tesla and recruit him to dominate the planet. It is easy to convince a smart man about the truth, in the first place, he is called 'a man lost in time'. Just show him your knowledge on Electromagnetics and Modulating signals. I'm an Engineer, btw.

Next, find similar smart people like Albert Einstein or Planck. I know a little about their theories, and a bit of Quantum Physics.

If you get them to your side, the next steps are easier because you would have gotten famous. BUT, I will stop at 9 people and enjoy a little first.

How far would you have to travel, given that you will land exactly where you are now in 1915? How would you pay for this travel if you need to?

Good point. I'd have to go by train and I would definitely need money. Hmmmm.....

I like that idea, I think I would take some time to enjoy it as well. Might as well see what life was like before that advent of all this technology. Are you located in Europe? If not, how would you get there?
