History. It's being made all the time. From small personal achievements and tragedies to events that impact the entire globe, History flows from our lives. It's been said that the past is a foreign country and I believe that is true, the past is populated by people and their customs and cultures most of which is very different from ours today. It's important to remember that the people of the past lived as we do, day to day not knowing what the future will bring.
It is my hope that at least one of my videos will provide a glimpse into the live of people past and how their stories are important today.

What's the music @ 4:37?
They used my families summer home in cleer creek for viewings and funerals.\We have pictures of the coffins stacked up in the yard.
I live in Nevada
Springtrap ahhh
20,000 dead in the first day. That's the equivalent of a whole Division wiped out. In one day.😮
It would have been a great help to show on a map where these towns were.
That's a great idea. If I remake these videos again I'll very probably do that. When I made these videos my skills were certainly rudimentary.
You'd think that with wars still going on today that men may have found a better way to solve their difference of opinions 😔
There is a great Irish American song called kilKelly, the song is a story about a man that goes to America time of the famine and he is writing to his father in Ireland and father is writing back, in one of the verses the father says, your sister Bridget and Patrick O’Donnell are going to be married in June,Your mother says not to work on the railroad and be sure to come on home soon☘️❤️🙏
Gods chosen people The Beautiful Native Hawaiian People.
Thank you. Beautiful!
They still use rail for cattle guard it’s strong and cheap it’s not in spec for the railroad to use anymore but cheap to build cattle guard
Nothing but a meat grinder! Mens lives pissed away because a general said they should be.😢😭❤❤❤.
so, the allies were fighting germany and russia is that correct?
Incredible video! Sharing. Thanks!
Insane lol
Weird cause at time, I would come with My Friends and Family Members, and it was creepy as well a stinty smell in that scary house.
I have the real railroad spike the very first 1860 transcontinental railroad spike was made of red wood and very big the wooden spike that won the west
Field Marshall Haig became known as the Butcher of the Somme - not because of his successes against his enemy
They're in paradise.
i doubt there was any socializing between the crews, one had almost entirely chinese crews who spoke little or no english, and where despised by nearly everyone. the other crew mainly Irish who could hardly be understood by anyone else and were despised by nearly everyone else.
You can see some of the horrors the carnage, men walking into their Death, nothing could make you understand the noise and smell especially in a multi year war, horrible terrain for trench warfare especially as it seemed to rain non stop, think it was some of the wettest year's on record that clay holding water and all sorts of bits of humans and animals mixed in some crazy soup in a massive shell crater, slip in you'll never get out and become part of that crazy soup, that had to be most brutal war to date, even do the Ukrainians and Russians are close second and probably pass WW1 for wasting life the longer it go's on, probably end us all 😢🍄🟫🍄🟫
this felt so liberating to watch. I love railroad history and the big, wide, open they sought to unite. Thank you for teaching us
I have two great uncles buried there. My wife was a resident of Scofield. It's a small world.
Icons 1 generation killed in 24hours 😢
I've visited there several times. I love the Hawaiian Spirit of love and family. Its amazing to me that they took cursed barren land and made it island beautiful. Even with the bad treatment they got. They have resilience and still keep joy in them. That is the light of Christ shining in the dark. Thankyou. Aloha
I went on that ride in Long Beach and saw him! I remember thinking, 'that guy looks real.'
I thought the battle of Antietam was the standard for one day bloodbaths. Then I heard about day 1 of the Somme. It's on just entirely another scale. 😢🪦😳
you'd rather fight in ww2 over this hell, because in ww2 they didn't full on fucking charge machine guns in entrenched positions with nothing but a prayer, modern tech met old-school warfare in ww1, which led to this being the war you had the least chance of surviving, ww2 killed a shitload more, but it had more soldiers, more fronts, and lasted 2 years longer, thew only exception could be the german soviet front, which was by far the highest death toll in the war
That was very good. Thank you. If you haven't done the Boston Revolt of 1686, that's a great topic as well
liked and subscribed! I live in Garden Valley and I shoot local drone footage. See the smoke rolling into Garden Valley / Crouch Idaho.
Tooele mentioned , I’ve worked a lot in Ophir🤌🏻
R.I.P you brave men.......
Some extra information. This is still to this day considered the deadliest day in the history of the British armed forces. What is more is that during ww1 when units were formed young men from the same and neighbouring towns were placed in the same unit to improve coordination. Unfortunately that meant that when a unit suffered heavy casualties the youth of an entire town could be wiped. On that day many villages and small towns in Britain lost all or most of their young men. An entire generation wiped out in just a few hours. Motorhead has made a song about this battle which sabaton has recently remade called 1916. Personally I prefer the remake more, however I recommend listening to both. We should never forget these men and their sacrifices, regardless of their side during the war.
War is so stupid. Why country leaders feel they have to conquer more land for the country at the expense of their people is beyond comprehension. I understand you're going to have skirmishes sometimes but these a lot worse for very little reason very little benefit are insane
It isnt though. WW1 is less about territory. But rather contest of resources. Both the allies and central power realized that the only way to achieve victory is to break the will of the people fighting them. Its ultimately is Kill/Death ratio contest. As to why the fight is a bit complex. A series of treaties and alliances that are meant to be countermeasures to stop war become a catalyst to make european countries going to war. By late 18th century, germany become a new superpower kid on the block. Russia eager to expand its influence, try to expand its influence in the balkans at the expense of the ottomans and austria-hungary. Both then seek the help and allied with new superpower, germany to keep russia at bay. Russia alarmed with this 3 neighboring country allied. Then sought germany nemesis, france for ally just in case germany attacks. France eager to avenge their loss in franco-prussian war decades earlier. Was more than happy to ally with russia. Italy was also a new country, at first they side with central powers, but later disagreements on territorial boundries with austria make them join the allies. Britain wanted to stay out of war. But after germany attacked belgium unprovoked. Joins the war.
So with 1.6 million artillery shells they couldn't Make some out of a clearing out of the barbwire
WWI was a shameful butchery and the end of the European supremacy. Good morning America ‼️🇺🇸
This would have been me very scary to think
Enjoyed, thanks. Question: What waas your Plan B, in case you had a car brek-down, or two flat tires at the same time? I have heard there is no cell phone coverage out there, and you could be on your own for several days until someone else came along. So, what was your prepartion for emergencies ...? Regards from pennsylvania.
Great question! I had informed friends and family that I would be traveling across this road and if I didn't turn up by a day and time, there was a problem and to come look for me. I plan on redoing this journey and include more personal stories from the people who lived in places like Terrace. Next time I'll have a device that allows me to text via satellite and send an SOS to local emergency services should something go seriously wrong.
I think this story makes a very compelling argument that there's no such thing as ghosts. 66 years without burial, and corpse used as a side show prop? If ghosts weer real, surely he would have come back as a vengeful spirit.
Because there are too many people, the ghost cant focus on some one to haunt, also children which have that weird aura that nullify the presence of a ghost, especially a lot of children. In my country, school only built on old graveyard or heavily haunted place, because with time, children/student presence nullify the presence of the ghost.
Hell on Wheels is a good series about this.
Grandes soldados 💔😢
We will remember them.
Hi u need to go about 200 years earlier to find wher for he ore went
Always a joy when an actual human talks about history with real footage instead of the shit ai voice and images
Yes!
"You wouldn't believe what happens next"
makin me nuts these days
@@filmandsong05 doesn’t do big subjects like these any justice i agree.
Great video!
lived here a long time. Fantastic place.
Thanks for posting the forgotten RxR history of Utah. I lived in Marysvale, the Southern terminus of the Denver & Rio Grande, and became interested in the trax in the state. l have driven most of the Line of the UP in the West desert. Utah has lots of History.
The casualty rate in ww1 was insane
Is it?. I seen casualties upwards of 41 million in taiping war in china. It was almost tripled the casualties of all combatants of both allies and central power combined. And this was decades before WW1. In 1870s
@@aetius7139Wrong, the Taiping Rebellion left only 20 million dead
World peace is in danger because of US and British. They are involved innevery war
