35 years separates these two pictures.

andstep234 · 2012-11-06T11:24:18+00:00

I recognise Billy Brag, who are the rest? Should i know?

poteaser · 2012-11-06T14:52:18+00:00

The subway hasn't changed much.

KarmaRaeJepsen · 2012-11-06T10:47:44+00:00

35 years is a long time to be stood there.

Harmswahy · 2012-11-06T14:54:04+00:00

Those are some fucking cool looking kids.

OrrinH · 2012-11-06T10:57:49+00:00

They even used the same camera??... Now that's attention to detail

mongobongodog · 2012-11-06T10:47:08+00:00

Is that Roger Sterling in the leather jacket?

Tim_Buk2 · 2012-11-06T15:02:14+00:00

Billy Bragg - This Boy Done Good - http://youtu.be/KMf-XAOZRmU

New England - http://youtu.be/mgwU4zCEJtY

Two of my all-time favourites.

LoserProvocateur · 2012-11-06T14:41:20+00:00

and about sixteen pounds of hair

FlockofSeagulls · 2012-11-06T10:39:55+00:00

this was posted last summer

Squalor- · 2012-11-06T14:50:07+00:00

From Irina Werning's Back to the Future series. Well, the second batch of the series.

Anhedonique · 2012-11-06T17:11:57+00:00

Scrolled all the way down and still no one mentions who the hell is in this picture.

IsThisTheRealLife · 2012-11-06T15:25:07+00:00

35 days between reposts.

two2teps · 2012-11-06T15:25:37+00:00

Wonder how long seperates the reposts...

alltimeisrelative · 2012-11-06T14:55:52+00:00

Wow, they still have the exact same clothes.

michiganjames · 2012-11-06T15:00:34+00:00

Very cool!

mikeyFRESHHH · 2012-11-06T15:34:41+00:00

Is that Anderson Cooper?

SteveGerrardGerrard · 2012-11-06T15:49:07+00:00

What's Lembit Opik doing there?

mathen · 2012-11-06T15:57:04+00:00

Arise, ye workers from your slumber...

silverence · 2012-11-06T16:05:18+00:00

People age? No fucking way!

Yohococo · 2012-11-06T16:14:17+00:00

Pretty sure that's less than 5mm

TheDeclanation · 2012-11-06T16:20:23+00:00

This is a repost from a few months ago. Nice try ;)

tbell324 · 2012-11-06T16:24:52+00:00

is there a subreddit of pics like this?

RiotCrits · 2012-11-06T16:26:37+00:00

Same camera 35 years later?

nikolaoured · 2012-11-06T16:42:20+00:00

they are such pimps my brain cant handle it.

alblaster · 2012-11-06T16:45:02+00:00

so It looks like they got old because they cut their hair. Hair is the real fountain of youth.

TheBigYello1isTheSun · 2012-11-06T16:45:10+00:00

Knowing full well how much things change or die as the world turns, I find it amazing that every detail outside of their physical appearance is spot on.

Cickle_Funts · 2012-11-06T16:55:44+00:00

And a couple of weeks between reposts.

ballbreaker101 · 2012-11-06T17:03:46+00:00

and i think about three months separates this repost from the original.

shafafa · 2012-11-06T17:09:32+00:00

Is this to prove how horribly they've aged?

lisabadcat · 2012-11-06T17:15:07+00:00

How many weeks separate this from the last time this was posted?

Scr3wtape · 2012-11-06T17:15:52+00:00

This i such an old repost

BgBootyBtches · 2012-11-06T17:17:13+00:00

You've gained some weight...

BeardedDeath · 2012-11-06T17:19:56+00:00

Looks like they all got a haircut and a job

goodguygregor · 2012-11-06T17:25:33+00:00

Is there some serious photoshopping going on or did they hold on to those clothes for 35 years purposely?

Excellent work either way!

Snodgrass82 · 2012-11-06T17:30:54+00:00

More like 35 pixels!

jrock77 · 2012-11-06T17:34:05+00:00

Two big thumbs up for keeping same outfits and poses! Others, while interesting, often lack in the details.

Ym4n · 2012-11-06T17:34:28+00:00

i don't know why the right one seems more natural

Thisguy2021 · 2012-11-06T17:36:55+00:00

All I know about this picture is this:
Time seems to have struck the man in the top hat like a ham sandwich.

Trainbow · 2012-11-06T17:47:39+00:00

CAN WE FUCKING STOP IT WITH THIS THEME

Actionjackson83 · 2012-11-06T17:49:12+00:00

Awesome pic, crappy infrastructure. 35 years and they don't upgrade the train at all. Get your tax dollars back.

jogrogers26 · 2012-11-06T18:03:57+00:00

Op is a fagt

locozildjiangodx · 2012-11-06T18:36:34+00:00

I didnt even notice the guy in the back till I saw the 2nd picture was lacking giant hair

RumorsOFsurF · 2012-11-06T18:49:50+00:00

3 months separates this repost from the last time it was on the front page

wwwords · 2012-11-06T19:09:05+00:00

I had The Rolling Stones playing "Mother's Little Helper" when I clicked on this. Talk about perfect timing--with the line: "What a drag it is getting old."

Trevtown · 2012-11-06T19:10:56+00:00

It's likely that the guy behind the camera for the original photo was part of this bunch of hooligans. I wonder if he is sad for not being a part of the remake.

Oh well.

klaq · 2012-11-06T19:12:18+00:00

looks like these guys are on the way to do some of the ole ultra violence

Boneslatch · 2012-11-06T19:12:46+00:00

aha. well I have seen this many of times before, on reddit and elsewhere. enjoy a downvote. muahuahuahua

kitteh_pants · 2012-11-06T19:40:05+00:00

From left to right I see Blake from Workaholics in the older photo, and Anderson Cooper, Jeff Goldblum, Willy Wonka and Michael Douglas in the newer photo.

SadGruffman · 2012-11-06T19:40:24+00:00

I want that pink floyd shirt.

gifforc · 2012-11-06T19:47:21+00:00

also, about 10 pounds of headfat.

Iainsane · 2012-11-06T19:57:42+00:00

Taken on the same camera no less.

BetterThanOP · 2012-11-06T20:03:59+00:00

pff, not the same subway car. 3/10

Clarkson23 · 2012-11-06T20:14:19+00:00

Definitely the better of the bunch

Cudiedout · 2012-11-06T20:27:18+00:00

Guy on the far right still looking like a boss 35 years later

Twitchxiii · 2012-11-06T20:42:02+00:00

The little balls they hold onto on the train got smaller

Emceegus · 2012-11-06T20:42:04+00:00

Doesn't look like that turkey has aged a day!

genderOutlaw · 2012-11-06T21:17:18+00:00

This picture was used in the music video for Bittersweet Melodies by Fiest.

zovm · 2012-11-06T21:20:17+00:00

I hate these posts

iAmAfatboy · 2012-11-06T21:26:04+00:00

why is this shit on the front page again?? stop recycling and just throw it in the garbage

phartnocker · 2012-11-06T21:32:35+00:00

time is a tyrant.

imstartingover · 2012-11-06T22:08:01+00:00

Just wanted to say this is one of the best photo remakes i've seen. You guys nailed the outfits and poses. A lot of times you see all sorts of things that are off about the pictures. This one isn't perfect, but it's pretty damn good.

Tannon34 · 2012-11-06T22:08:07+00:00

The hair just disappeared at some point, probably about five years after it was taken

Santaman2346 · 2012-11-06T22:12:10+00:00

Your friend in the leather jacket looks very similar to Billy Bragg.

quackerzdb · 2012-11-06T22:54:30+00:00

Finally! One of these where they actually wear the exact same clothes!

tydy_ · 2012-11-06T23:00:07+00:00

These are my favorite kind of pictures.

raresaturn · 2012-11-06T23:18:48+00:00

Is that Billy Bragg???

khysanth · 2012-11-06T23:33:51+00:00

How do the people in these pictures always manage to have the same clothes?

ChefHans · 2012-11-06T23:45:13+00:00

This is the coolest thing I found on REDITT Cheers to you guys !

jwjenay · 2012-11-07T01:05:24+00:00

Yeah, Irena Werning (The photographer of this one) did a ton of these in her Back To the Future Set: http://irinawerning.com/index.php?/bttf2/back-to-the-future-2-2011/

psych00range · 2012-11-06T15:16:50+00:00

i remember seeing this but thought it was like 3 months ago not 8. time flies

GPManager · 2012-11-06T15:20:21+00:00

That's it. From now on, I'm going to download the entire frontpage of today too. And then repost it in a year.

This is the 4th pic in a row which is a repost.

Canada-USAsFreezer · 2012-11-06T15:20:00+00:00

35 years and 350lbs.
