1991. It couldn't just go online to replace it all. It was slick a kick in the summer. The mic tried not to think about it over the next 3 years. Until this 14 year-old was fishing off the same break water. A friend asked him to help look for something he dropped in the rocks. And jamie lee uncovered an old wallet. Instead, it was like custody and super hard. I was super surprised not only to contain id that expired in the previous century. There were old fashioned video store cards as well. Yeah, super old before may come on. What are the chances jamie's dad bill lays started searching for the owner online before finding a lead and sending a message which nick thought was a scam. At first. I don't even know to be touching my until he was sent a picture of his younger self smiling back at I was blown away when bill didn't waste time, he immediately drove to the nearby town. Wernick was living. I just saw it as a nice gesture that I would do for my fellow neighbour and reunited neck with what's been transformed into a time machine of sorts, remembering how I thought and saw things, which is why despite being very thankful that jamie and bill went to the effort to return his old things may cause even more grateful to be forming new friendships. Something like this that's totally out of the blue can reconnect it here past and build new connections to people in the community. Adam sawatsky, ctv news, comox.

Thank you so much for being with U.S. inc here, this is super exciting, but also very different than anything that I've ever heard about before. So tell me about your passion from pinball machines, how it all I started playing when I was about 19 years old at a convenience store in the maples. >> And I used to go after work and I go play with a friend from work and I just fell in love with it. The convenience store closed my parents had a pinball machine since I was a little kid. Never work. It got fixed when I was about 22 23, I started playing again and I was like man, this is far and like I forgot how from this and I googled on winnipeg and I found them in a manitoba pinball league and it blew up from there. It was so much fun. Your own a bow. 40 pinball machines. >> Yourself. Yes, sir. Tell me about that of I started collecting. Yeah. When I got into the my parents had that game and then I'm like man, I'm going to buy my own game. And so I met a collector and he sold me a game. >> And then it just went crazy from there ya.

Tell me how that strength is helping you in this yeah, I'm, I'm one of those people when I get into something I get obsessed. I look at videos, I read everything on the internet. I can, I read rules. So every game has its own set of rules. It's like a video game or a board game. And so I've, there's site you can go to and they've got streams of games that have been competitions and no talk about the rules of the games. So I've watched a ton of those videos. So when I'm in a competition with my friends, they're usually the go-to. What do I do in this game? And you know, I'm like a chute this and that lights the shot and then you shoot this in, it blows up the game or something like that. That's and that's going to be part of your strategy when, you know, yes, that's right about this world's competition. So this competition, it's called I of pa 19, it's the world championships.
