TIMELINE 1970 - Everything That Happened In 1970

- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- Weird History's Timeline is back and is taking you all the way back to 1970. Coming out of the hippie '60s, 1970 would immediately take a turn, quickly shaping into its own identity. From the rise of Black Sabbath to the Beatles breaking up, to the Apollo 13 mission, 1970 would have America (and the world) on its toes. Take a ride with Timeline as we go back to '70.

I should get into the timelines. Thanks a bunch! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Pink Floyd's Dark Side if the Moon!
Best thing about the year 1970 for me is my husband’s birthday in October. His mother was severely epileptic and was told if she ever had a child it would worsen. And it did, but her joy at having my husband made her life extraordinary despite the added hardships from her condition. What’s better than unconditional love to represent the start of the decade🥰
Are muscle cars from the 70s covered?? Would love to see old muscle car commercials! I’m loving your videos!
The premiere of Star Wars on May 25th 1977
Wow this is a really dope surprise. I thought you gave up on the timeline series. This is one of my favorite series to see watch on UA-cam and tv in general
They announced it at the end of the 2000s set, they just never said when😊
@@strange4change_6 I think I do remember hearing that but it’s been so long
I commented about this on their last video on Friday and literally 2 hours later they posted this 😂
If there's one thing weird history doesn't do. Is give up. It is the American dream in action.. lolz
Time travel time!
Before my dad passed away in Feb this year, he’d visit me and we’d watch Timeline since he really enjoyed reminiscing about the things you covered. So I’m forever grateful for these videos 🥰 thank you for the great content!
*hug*
Sounds your your father was one swell of a guy. He will be missed ❤
@@Off-with-a-bang oh he was a riot. Melanoma spread throughout his body and took him at 69 years old. Sharp memory too. He loved history and when I watched this with him last year he’d say “yup, I remember that.” Then go off on a history lesson lol
He was my favorite person In the entire world. I hope you have your pops around. Cherish the times you have with your loved ones. As time goes on, those memories are so important. It’s what we have when they’re gone. Thank you friend for the kindness. 🤗🥰
RIP your dad Ashley, peace and love to you and your family in this time, and keep on rockin and laughing and bringing joy to your lives, your father sounds like a great man
@@ENigma-um8zw that's so nice of you, thank you for the kind words. it's been tough finding reasons to keep going.. but i know i'd get scolded by him if he were here. lol. Wishing you and yours good health and all the happiness :)
So glad the decades are back! Can’t wait to see the 2000s eventually! You guys are awesome
Same!
Same!
Weird History Should do Timeline 2000s after Timeline 1970s
@@NASCARFAN93100 I'm sure that's the direction they'll head. There's a LOT less people who're 60+ watching this.
I'd personally like to see the 60's because as much as I like nostalgia, I like the random educational value of a decade like the 60's with so much cultural strife. I lived through the 2000's but definitely can't say the same for the 60's (or 70's for that matter).
He has to finish in order from 1970 to 1979. If we see the end of Timeline 1979, he'll say "Make sure you watch the rest of Timeline: the '70s. If you want to continue forward, watch Timeline: the '80s as well as Timeline: the '90s." After that, he'll announce what will Season 4 of Timeline will be.
80's kid here and I feel like the 70's is just really glossed over so I'm wicked happy this series exists so I can learn the more specific stuff. Can't wait for the rest of the series.
It was kind of glossed over in the 80s. There was so much happening that it was not easy to cover it all.
My father was born in 53" and thank God he's still around with me,but when I was young he would recount many of the historical events that he lived through in his youth. From the 60's-70's.
Yeah go back and add more I say, I love it 😀
Same here, really curious about a quick recap of the decade that came before I was born...
A mind job full of distraction and now the devils real intent being manifesst
This is the kind of content that should be on network television and all the streaming services. We can't forget our history.
I was born in 1971. One of my coolest memories was my dad taking me to the theater to see the First Star Wars Movie on the Big Screen. I was around 7 or 8.
Same for me, but I was born in 68,so I was almost 9, my mom ,dad, two sisters and my cousin Michelle and I went to the drive in to see it in my parents 76 Chevy station wagon, remember it so well.
@@timlach759 That’s a great memory! I remember when my parents had a big Station wagon. They were popular back then. Another cool memory was seeing Rocky 3 at the outdoor theatre back in 82 I believe. With the parents in the family truckster. Outdoor theater’s were fun. There not as popular like they used to be. But I know there is still one in Freedom, Wisconsin.
I think that was 1976. I saw it at the movies, too. I recall that & Watership Down. I know the cousins would all go to the movies after Thanksgiving Dinner. I recall being snuck into a drive in to see Silver Streak at - Louisiana Downs, I think it was.
I know we've all been waiting for this series to come back but think about this. Some viewers might be watching this years from now and of various different ages. Decades past so fast and life speeds up. If you have any 70's stories, please share them. It's a time some of us will never be able to experience
I'll have more as the decade progresses, but my grandfather had his first heart attack in 1970 a few months before my parents got married. My Pop was one of the first patients to receive a modern internal pacemakers at John's Hopkins in Baltimore.
I wasn't born yet but I've always been fascinated by the years 70 & 71. No clue why. The 60's were marked by more change but maybe American idealism had degraded into something more obviously selfish, fragmented, corporate, and cynical by 70-71'. Maybe???
The internet has changed us all more significantly since then, but maybe it's just a more concentrated manifestation of that same 70's shift toward fragmentation, corporatism & cynicism. Maybe???
I was born in March of '71,so my entire childhood was in the 70s. The thing I remember most was waking up earlier on Saturday morning than during the school week, so that I could watch cartoons!! Super Friends, Space Academy, Jason Of Star Command were some of my favorites. Star Wars being released in '77 made a HUGE impact on my young mind and set me on the sci fi loving path that I am still on to this day.
I consider myself lucky that I was born at the time that I was, because I was a child of the '70s, a teen in the '80s, a young adult in the '90s, and older/mature adult in the 2000's
The thing that really stuck with me as I grew up, though, at the time, I was too young to understand, was all the "Don't forget, hire the vet!", tv ads, billboards, posters, and bumper stickers. It would the early 80s before I really knew what that meant.
I was born December 1969. I remember the TV show In Search Of narrated by Leonard Nimoy......summers that lasted 3 months.....playing until the street lights came in.....real Christmas pageants at school before it became "offensive"...listening for school closings when it snowed.....Halloween as a little girl was my favorite holiday.....so many memories. So blessed to have been a little girl in the 70's.
I was born in 1970 but was unaware of most of the history that occurred during that year. Thanks for this awesome video!
Same here Chewbags. Nice name
@@bobtwichew3103 Haha thanks! Same to you ;)
@don s I'm also a May 1970 baby! My earliest memory is around the same age, 5-6 years old.
I was born in December 1970 and my first memory was 4 years old when the news on our console tv showed the Symbionese Liberation Army snake symbol during the kidnapping of Patty Hearst. I remember that snake symbol scared me big time!
Me too I was born on march 5th 1970 and I remember being in a crib and breaking out to explore the neighborhood as young as 2 years old and of course playing with my older brother in the yard and sandbox
Here are the top 10 songs of 1970, according to the Billboard year-end singles chart:
10. Band of Gold- Freda Payne
9. Let It Be- The Beatles
8. Get Ready- Rare Earth
7. I'll Be There- The Jackson 5
6. Ain't No Mountain High Enough- Diana Ross
5. War- Edwin Starr
4. Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head- B.J. Thomas
3. American Woman- The Guess Who
2. (They Long to Be) Close to You- The Carpenters
1. Bridge Over Troubled Water- Simon & Garfunkel
52 years later and those songs are still played by Rock stations across the country.
Beginning theme song name?
Don't forget Led Zeppelin as well.
@@CJColvin Dude, Zep never had a song in the top 10. Stay on topic!
Do not forget YMCA.
My husband, Gary (Viet Nam vet) and I were married on 7-17-70 (52 years ago today) and lived together happily for 45 years. A lot of bad things happened that year, but also a lot of good things happened. I weighed 95 and stood 5'1" tall. My soldier boy is now in heaven. RIP Sweet Prince and son, Mikey, born in 1972, is with him. God is Good, All the Time. Rosie (Love Grows Where Rosemary Goes).
Happy Belated Anniversary!!! And my empathy to your losses!
Great song, music is life as they say, when you are happy or in a good mood, you dance to the sound of the music, but when you are sad, you listen to the lyrics..
I love these. 70s baby here. But im here for whatever decade you wanna give us. Love the pop culture references and jokes through them. Keep.making these.
Great song, music is life as they say, when you are happy or in a good mood, you dance to the sound of the music, but when you are sad, you listen to the lyrics..
One of my fondest memories of 1970 was seeing the Jackson Five for the first time on The Ed Sullivan Show. That performance was the talk of the school yard and school playground the next day.
I turned eleven that year. The technical beginning of my teen years.
Eleventeen?
Teen years are 13-19, not “eleventeen” or “twelveteen” lmao
I turned 13 in 1970 and came of age in the 1970’s. Good times. Would not trade it for anything.
Great song, music is life as they say, when you are happy or in a good mood, you dance to the sound of the music, but when you are sad, you listen to the lyrics..
I was born in 1960 and i just love these videos, takes me back, i had a blast being in high school in the 70's! Id love to go back just once ✌️
1960 as well…..no regrets
I'm so excited! I was a little kid in the 70s and it's unreal how crazy the 70s were. It'll be good to see the energy embargo. My parents 1880s uninsulated rural michigan farmhouse cost $300/month in Jan 1973 to heat. That's $1000 today! And the most epic event of my childhood, the 1978 blizzard, best time to be a kid, ever. You didn't make up snow days back then.
That blizzard was awesome. My parents were vacationing in Florida and my Aunt Marge watched me and my two sisters. She had two girls and boy all the same age as me and my sister's. Great memories.
I remember The Blizzard of 76',77,' and 78' and I agree with you man that was like a vacation period.
Yeah, I remember that, too. Southwestern Ontario. Grandmother didn't believe me when I said the radio said that school was cancelled. So I'm out struggling through chest-deep snow with neighbours catcalling me about how school was cancelled. Boy, was I pissed off. I would have been 9 or 10.
People made 150$ a week. That's too high.
Oh ..
I forgot the bad winter but thought it came later. We made tents over our heater vents.
Well done, nostalgic and funny. Like how you pick and choose interesting topics as opoosed to standard disasters and news. The 89s and 90s Timelines were da bomb!
1970 is my favorite year during the 70s. So many groovy tunes from that year. Super excited for this one!
Tony Orlando and Dawn, The Carpenters, Neil Diamond were BIG at the time, I remember them, and still a substantial amount of 50's/60's music on the radio! :)
This is amazing. Its like stepping in a time machine. The transitions between the clips showing the cities and commercials at those times really give some awesome insight.
Love it
I'm so excited for this one! This was my parents Era and I love the styles and identity of the the 70s.
Awesome!
My parents era too😍
Diana Ross left The Supremes that January and scored her first solo #1 hit that year with Ain't No Mountain High Enough, a cover of the Tammi Terrell and Marvin Gaye tune. Tammi Terrell passed away in 1970 ironically as well.
Whoa. I almost can't believe what I'm seeing. I'm ashamed to admit I had lost hope. I'm sorry for doubting you, Weird History guys.
So glad your back with this series! This is my favorite on UA-cam and I’m 1997 baby (25 years old). I’m a history junkie and this series teaches me so much on pop culture and history before I was born! I love it-continue please!
I’ve been looking forward to the 70s since you started the series. I’m glad it’s finally here!!!
Same here, my favorite decade because I was a young child, the years before hell started for me.
My favorite memory is that I graduated from high school in Charleston, WV in 1970. Turned 18 and joined the Navy to see the world. Saw Corpus Christi, Texas, but that was a world away from rural West Virginia. Great year!
I’m in CC now. Would love to go to West Virginia for awhile. 😊
Great song, music is life as they say, when you are happy or in a good mood, you dance to the sound of the music, but when you are sad, you listen to the lyrics..
This decade was indeed my parents’ childhood era. Could not wait for more 70s to upload! 👍🏾
Born in ‘65 and was ten when the Vietnam War ended in ‘75.
My dad was born in ‘67, mom was born in ‘71, step mom was born in ‘66, and step dad was born in ‘71. I use these videos as a way to beat them in trivia lol
@@tegantalks9612 That’s very smart.
@@Ljordan093 my strategy has worked thus far, no one expects me to know so much about stuff that happened a good 15+ years before I was born
It was a great time to be a kid in the 70's !! I wouldn't have wanted to be an adult then. The 80's were way better to be a teen ! Everything after that goes down hill. It just all depends on how old one was during the start of that decade (70"s). If your parents were born in the mid to very late sixties then they would have had a lot of groovy memories. Also location has a lot to do with things. I like your comment.
May 18 1970 my birthday..70s and 80s were by far much cooler than the next decade's
This is the best series to ever exist on UA-cam
The timeline series is one of my favorite series of videos to watch on UA-cam. I love watching these nostalgic videos from previous decades, I look forward to future decades you may cover keep up the amazing content!
Can't f**king wait!!! Loved the other decades. This is gonna be another awesome set of videos! Man I'm pumped for tomorrow. Thank you for the hard work and commitment to your audience. I will watch them all. Probably watch the other decades again after this one is finished so I can journey through time with this great channel.
It's only the year 1970
Ikr! As soon as the trailer came out, I was like, “FINALLY!!” 😆😆
My decade. Started at 12 years ago ended at 22. Best decade for music. 👍👍👀🎸
You were a preteen a teenager and an adult all in one decade🙋
@@thelovelyone1582 would not trade it for any other decade
So glad I caught this live, can't wait for 1971. Amazing video as always, Weird History is always fantastic.
70’s music is absolutely awesome
So excited that this series is continuing!
When is Timeline coming back?!
The Production on this is outstanding. Loved all the other episodes and the first one of the 70s Is great. Keep it up
The music of the 70,'s is a fond memory.I loved listening to the top 40 songs .
Great song, music is life as they say, when you are happy or in a good mood, you dance to the sound of the music, but when you are sad, you listen to the lyrics..
I think the 70’s were so much more interesting than the 80’s or 90’s, so again- words can’t describe how EXCITED I AM!! Loved this video!!!
I always thought this. Most people like/miss the 90s more than any decade
Great song, music is life as they say, when you are happy or in a good mood, you dance to the sound of the music, but when you are sad, you listen to the lyrics..
This was good. I spent exactly all of 1970 in southeast Asia earning the Vietnam Service Medal with the USAF and this helped me put together a lot I missed. Thank you.
The farther back from modern times the better. Do the 60s next!
I was just 11 in 1970, but it would kickoff the best decade of my life! Bell bottoms and the sexiest long haired 70’s guys. High school, friends and Keg parties with the best music ever!
Best 'series' on UA-cam. So, so well put together.
Born in '65 so these videos are amazing time capsules of my youth 😀 looking forward to upcoming years ✌️much appreciated
Apollo 13 was the most memorable for me. Everyone was glued to the TV and praying for their safe return.
So happy this series is back, missed it. Please do the '50s
Those commercial breaks made this feel so '70s
You forgot Dr. Demento (aka Barrett Hansen)! His show started in 1970 and continues now as a weekly podcast.
As a teenager in the 70's I'm loving this Keep em coming!
Born 78 but I remembered all the awesome stories from my parents from the 70s. Their favorite decade.
Meeeow!
What an awesome treat to have this drop today, took a little bit but as I well knew it was absolutely worth the wait. This is by far my favorite series on UA-cam, please never give up on these! Thanks again Weird History 😊
I loved the Timeline 80's and 90's videos. Your 70's videos look to be just as great. Keep up the great work.
I used to love watching VH1's I love the 70's, 80's, 90's series!!! Glad you're doing it for the next generation!
YES!! TIMELINE is back, and showcasing a decade that is near and dear to my heart. Thank you, WH!
Broooo I’ve been waiting what feels like forever for the 70’s😂😂 I knew it dropped in July just not when. Just loaded up UA-cam and this is on my home page lets goooooo. I’ve watched all the 80’s and 90’s all the way through MULTIPLE times love this series. Appreciate you taking the time to make these.
I love these looks-back through the decades. Especially when you had lived through it. I'll check to see if this was the first of it's kind, and if it is, please continue with the series. I will now have to checkout the others. Nice work, Mr. Weird History.
Love the music, the vintage commercials and even the transition to the commercial breaks. All so very 70's!!
I went to high school and college in the '70s. I can say it was wild to say the least.
Born in 1977 and I’m seriously thinking of making my 16 & 13 year old kids watch all of the timelines as part of a history “lesson”. Highly educational & entertaining. These are the BEST!!!
Fun fact you may not know:
In the 1970s farmers attempted giving weed to cows in order to improve milk production.
They finally had to conclude the steaks were too high so they had to disco-ntinue, but the smell was legendairy.
My favorite UA-cam series!
I am so glad to have it back. Been waiting a while for it. Waiting for the next episode will be the hardest part.
Please keep it up! I want at least 1972 to see what happened the year my parents were born.
the timeline series is what made me subscribe to the weird history channel. I hope more is in the works! 😁
Yes, more and bigger plans in the works
Looking forward to the 1760's! 😜
@@dvdv8197 I think after 20th century, we would probably cover centuries
@@WeirdHistory I was hoping you start going year by year. Some decades could warrant a year by year.
@@Redblueladybug uhm they've had those. 😅
I've been dying for a 70s retrospective! I feel like it's a very very important decade to understand what's going on now and I feel like it's a decade most people know very little of and only think of disco
Agree! I seem to remember Disco really kicking in in the 2nd half of the 70's, at least 1975 or so.
For the first time in my 15 year youtube history I opened the video just to express my excitement! Will plan a special occasion to watch this - not now 👀❤️
Thanks Weird History. 80's & 90's was some the best media I have consumed on this platform. Absolutely priceless. Thanks again
That was a great timeline of my birth year!! Can't wait to see the rest of them... Timeline is a brilliant series!!
I really hope that this series continues.
I was born in 1970. I can remember when gas prices jacked in 1973 before I turned 4.
I also remember the USA 200 celebration in 1976.
And they haven’t stopped jacking up and up and up.
Timeline was what got me hooked on Weird History 😀
You guys really outdid yourselves with this episode, I am excited to see what else is in store for this series
WOOO!! So glad timeline is back, love learning a good deal of history from these!!
Some of the best content on all of UA-cam. Thank you Weird History
The Timeline is my best series of the channel and a staple of my Sunday evening, keep it up guys...
Lovely, this was great, these make me rewatch the VHs I Love The 70s/80s/90s series lol. As this was influenced by and other humorous and insightful decade overviews. This will be fun to watch, lots of great music and movies in this decade, got the sprawl of rock to punk and the beginning of the New Hollywood renaissance.
Yes I am so excited! I know a lot about what happened in the 80s and 90s but not too much about the 70s so this is another good series to add.
I'm thinking I'll probably find something I'll like learning about even if it's not my favorite decade aesthetically yet think I'll like it more as I watch. Lot's of great music I know that
@@MichaelTurner856 I like the aesthetic of the 70s and I’m a huge pop culture fan so I love learning about new things
Such a very good summary! I love the timeline series! Especially the parts where you talk about things that aren't really discussed much anymore but were prevalent in the years that they occured
like the assassination of JOHN F. Kennedy and the start of the Vietnam War during the back half of the sixties ?
Wasn't expecting you to make a video like this one, but I love it already 💙😁
Thanks for doing this, I was born in 1960 so the 70s were my true growing up years. Keep them coming.
I was 5 years old in 1970 and basically grew up in the 70s so it goes without saying that I'm quite fond of that decade and look forward to the rest of the series.
OMG. I'm one year behind you. I started Kindergarten in 1971. I dug being a kid then.
Saw Hendrix on the thumbnail and I have never clicked on a video so fast, then I realized it was a new Timeline video ! My girlfriend is gonna be so mad I watched this without her lol, we watch all of these together
HOORAY - Timeline is back, and the 70s are a decade I can relate to. :) Life is pretty good. THANKS!
@weirdhistory will you please add a little “HBD to Brett! 🎉” on April 9th in your 1976 video? Brett (my husband) is my favorite thing about the ‘70s 😊 We love your Timeline series and are always excited for the next years to come! TY! 💜
I’m freaking out. This is my life’s one joy.
Great job! I was a junior and senior in high school during 1970. It was a long time ago, but I remember so much of what was covered here. Love the Weird History vibe. Thanks! I'm eager to see more.
Yoko Ono was freaking creepy (probably still is). Thanks for a fun look back ... I don't remember 1970 but do remember the sequellae. I distinctly remember hearing the sounds of the Vietnam War on the nightly news, and it terrified me (even as a small child).
Idk how I'm so late, this is by far my favorite series currently on UA-cam.
Three things that I learned about the year 1970: #1 both Janis Joplin's and Jimi Hendrix's passing at their age of 27, #2 The Beatles broke up, #3 American Top 40 began on The 4th of July PERIOD!!!!!
Looking forward to many more episodes of the the 70s and other decades like the 60s
Wow 1 year we waited this, after 70’s I hope we see 60’s or 2000’s
Me and my kids would check every Sunday for a new timeline. Was nice to watch a new episode again. Brilliant work as always. Thank you.
Thank you for bringing this awesome series back. Very well done. 80s was my favorite so far. Cheers from Niagara 🇨🇦✌️
This is definitely my Era, born in 73 I have been looking forward to this timeline 😄 💜 😀 😊
At one point, Harry Nillson was considered to replace Paul in The Beatles. How awesome would that have been?
Oh wow you even got Genie in here. Such a heartbreaking story. From what I understand we do know that today she lives in an adult foster care home though. Her location more than that is 'unknown' on purpose to keep people from bothering her.
Well worth the wait Weird History! Spot on fantastic as usual! ❤
Man, I really love this & these. I was born in 1979 & I watched that yesterday. This is just so fantastic to watch.
These timeline videos are my favorite to watch on UA-cam. So excited!
The charisma of young Michael on that Ed Sullivan appearance will always baffle me. Dude was like 6, 7 years old n just owning it, crazy
I'm so happy this is finally out! My parents graduated from high school in '75, married in '76 and I was born in '79.
Great song, music is life as they say, when you are happy or in a good mood, you dance to the sound of the music, but when you are sad, you listen to the lyrics..
I was born in 72. I love videos like this to see what was going on, what my mama may have been seeing and wearing before I came along. She’s 83 now, and I’m blessed to still have her and ask questions often.
Welcome back Timeline! You were sorely missed!
I believe the seventies had the best talk shows of any decade. The conversations were deep and substantive, something that is quite rare on television today. I wish could I go back in time, sit in front of a vintage television set, and watch Orson Welles reminisce about life.
