I remember watching this video in school. It was about a group of kids who go to some kind of basement or garage where another kid claims to have built a time machine. The kids are skeptical since his other inventions have never worked, but he insists that he's serious this time. The other kids accidentally get into the time machine and go back in time, but they're able to communicate with the inventor kid through a walkie talkie. They visit a bunch of historical places (I can't remember where) before finally ending up at the end of world war 2. They cheer for the end of the war and end up accidentally yanking out a crucial cable they needed to run the time machine. The inventor kid tells them how to fix it through the walkie talkie: by putting "our year" into the place where you enter what year you want to travel to. The kids do so (literally entering "OUR YEAR" ) and return to the present. Does anyone know where this could be from? It's been bugging me for years?
