Hmm. Our current estimates vary based on the theory in play, but realize most of the humans probably didn't interact much with the monsters before the part where they died. If they fell randomly, it places 201X PF (post-founding, aka monster time) around 1910 AD/CE. If they didn't? The odds are anywhere.

Also, VHS tapes degrade significantly over the course of a few decades. Soooooooo...

(I'm actually doing some experiments on how magnetic tape reacts to water. It's only one piece of the puzzle- my results suggest dust is much more important- but SCIENCE!)
