PARADOXES DOES IT MAKE SENSE?
So I went back in time 5 years, shot myself. _ Most say this can't happen. I say why not? At the exact moment I died from the bullet that came from the gun my future self shot we both would not exist. So therefore, I would have died 5 years younger than now from a gunshot. Make sense?
Update:So I existed until the point of me shooting my younger self. What's the problem? All physical data, pictures, wouldn't exist =0 they would just disappear like i did when i went back in time =0 ...... seems all too irrelevant.

Time Travel into the future is possible. If Free Will exists, then time travel into the past is not possible, IF there is only one universe. But, some versions of Quantum Mechanics proposes multiple universes. Multiple universes are possible, then time travel to the past is also possible. Though any change made in the past results in living on a different time line. (Example of the fun you can have with this: Solution to the “Grandfather Paradox,” If you go back in time it is impossible to kill your grandfather. Every time you try the gun mis-fires and you stay on a time line where your grandfather lives. See:

Same goes for you. Every time you try the gun will mis-fire and you continue to live on THE time-line that brought you to today and your time-machine
Well, according to the 'Back To The Future' logic, the instant you travel back the five years, you create a brand new timeline that deviates from the original, so you could shoot your younger self and be just fine because you wouldn't be existing in the other timeline anymore. You'd have jumped into an alternate reality.
no, it doesnt make sense... if you died five years ago from a gunshot WHO went back in time to shoot you? WHO was that person, where did he come form and how did he manage to travel back in time if YOU have been dead for 5 years?
if you exist up to the point of being shot, the problem is that 5 years after you were shot no one is around to go back in time and shoot you. Cause you are dead... have been for 5 years.... so WHO gets a gun and goes back? there's NO ONE to do it cause you are dead, have been... for 5 years.
Its very simple
Nope. If you did not even exist, you could not have travelled back in time, assuming that is possible.
If I'm not wrong logicians have a set of code to re-write your argument. Maybe you should try that out and then you can check for yourself if it's works.
Many worlds - by going back you created another universe - one that has you and an entirley unrelated corpse. Due to the many worlds you now cannot tretun to your starting world.
