A would-be saboteur arrested today at the Large Hadron Collider in
Switzerland made the bizarre claim that he was from the future.
Eloi Cole, a strangely dressed young man, said that he had
travelled back in time to prevent the LHC from destroying the world.
The LHC successfully collided particles at record force earlier
this week, a milestone Mr Cole was attempting to disrupt by
stopping supplies of Mountain Dew to the experiment's vending
machines. He also claimed responsibility for the infamous baguette
sabotage in November last year.
Mr Cole was seized by Swiss police after CERN security guards
spotted him rooting around in bins. He explained that he was
looking for fuel for his 'time machine power unit', a device that
resembled a kitchen blender . . .
