The series of films that the Jam Handy corporation made for General Motors are the some of the best educatuonal films for physics and mechanical engineering ever made.

@UA-cam WantsToSilenceMe Now that sounds like some handy jam!
i agree 100%
I agree. I learn a lot more than my 10 year of school taught me.
They must have had a muget that was through the roof.
That was probably the only time, when Chevrolet-funded document did mentioned Mustangs.
Ha
And if the Mustang car existed yet, they wouldn't have been mentioned, lol
You got me there mate
And when "Mustang" was mentioned, it was immediately followed by, "...or cow-pony!"
dklein2008 A mustang is a type of horse
i feel like i'm a mechanic after watching this videos.
I feel I am a horse herder after watching this.
@StealthyMonk
Screw holiday inn express 😝
MrHillfolk - Lol - I’m not a mechanic, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express!!!! Made my day
I'm a horse
😂😂
The fact that this was in 1937 is very telling because just 30 years prior to this film being made, most of the country was still on horseback!!
It is strange how mankind all of the sudden made these quantum leaps in such a VERY short period of time.
Alien technology
And in the 32 years following this jet engines would be developed, then rockets that could reach escape velocity.
My great grandmother was born in the 1880's before cars and even indoor plumbing were available to her.
She watched Niel Armstrong walk on the moon.
My great grandfather saw the Wright bros and their flying at the age of 6 at the ok state fair 1906. I watched the lunar landing with him in 1969 when I was 6
Around this time, the world became small, so instead of exploring places, they started exploring ideas
All done by white people✊
These videos should be brought back in the mainstream ASAP
Thank you very much for uploading videos like this. Even modern 3D videos can't explain horse power this easily.

Education sucks these days. It's all about non-existent issues such as feminism, equality and gender ideology bringing useless knowledge to the kids.
@@marcelomcustodio wtf school do you go to
@Khaffit beautiful horses by the way. You got a problem with pretty horses?
@@marcelomcustodio Too bad nobody gives a damn to step up and say something about it or maybe they’re to afraid
Respect to the cameramen who captured the inventing of horsepower on video...
If they weren't there, we would've never seen how exactly they did it
Watt are you saying ? Oh... nothing...
The comment is simply.... awesome. It says a lot...
literally half the video is JUST horses.
Daniel Gordon yea dude the video is called horse power, I don't know what you were expecting but this is horse power man. 33000 thousands pounds dude you don't even know 3 mil ants for 1 horse power dawg. Factoar.
yo homie dawg homeslice bread slice fam chica that cool man bread slice pal buddy.

I'm measuring my engines in elephantpower from now on.
Or antpower.
What about kilowatts?
I appreciate the 2 minutes of clips to show exactly what a horse is. Very informative
So my 6.1 Hemi SRT engine is rated for 425 Horsepower oorrrrrr 85 Elephant Power.
Shayne Baldwin 1275000000 antpower looks so much better
Shayne Baldwin and, 425 actual horses would have more torque then your hemi!
It's funny you say that, the 426 Hemi from the 1960s, is called the elephant engine.
@j mcmann Not even 0.01% Shaggy Doo power. (this is dying)
In that case, my 2018 Mustang GT makes 92 elephant power. (460 HP)
Why don't they teach these things in school lol

Becuz its to old to teach

You're fucking stupid right?
If you go to a car dealership TODAY and compare two 2019 cars, the easiest way to compare the power they develop is with the measurement of horsepower.
Because it is species appropriation.
So James Watt developed the Horsepower unit and then had a competing unit of power named after him.
Yes, exactly. The Watt is the unit for the same concept as the horsepower, based upon the fundamental units of the SI unit system, instead of the horse specifically. It is named that way because James Watt was a pioneer of establishing a unit of power in the first place.
Similar thing happened with Celsius, as our temperature scale we call Celsius was actually the reverse of the temperature scale created by Anders Celsius. He put boiling water at zero and freezing water at 100, so that weather temperature records would always be positive numbers, and living in Sweden, he knew first hand about how common freezing temperatures are. It was switched after his death.
That some buff horses right there!
These videos were very well made.
God damn people must have had way longer attention span in 37, that was two solid minutes of horses
The ship at 5:45 is the MS Batory, a very loved Polish ocean liner.
thank you captain
So?
Fun fact: did you know that camera man are invincible, a great example is 1912 with the sinking of the RMS Titanic, because the camera man who shot the clips of the Titanic was going to make his own movie, but he was to deviated by the sinking of the Titanic. He lived until 1965 after magically surviving the sinking of the Titanic and capturing it all on film. He later handed his footage to his children who game it to the movie studio in 1996.
These videos are gems, thank you for uploading them
0:30 - Not gonna lie. This is the first time I've ever seen horses fighting. Usually I see them just kicking the shit outta humans.
They do fight each other especially the Males.
Such professional work explaining this!
@INERT thank goodness I wasn't the only one who that didn't slip past everyone's making jokes about horses not even a single comment about that
@@hotbowlofstu9228 not a single comment complimenting the work and effort of the documentary and educational molasses of clean sweet work given from our older generations.
I can't take this old film seriously. Too much horsing around.
Tubmaster 5000 Lol
Wat?
Every time I hear a corny joke like that, I think of my step father, he had a million of them.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🐎🐴
@@balinx 745.7 watts to be exact
" if you can't explain it easily, that means that you don't understand it well enough... "
Albert Einstein.
What part did you not understand? The experiments by Watts found that the average horse could move 33,000 pounds, a distance of 1 foot, over the duration of 1 second. That's one horsepower.
That's a good quote by Albert Einstein, but it doesn't apply here because the video explains it pretty simply.
@@toytacambery9427 1 horse power is not equal to the power rod one horse..
Advertisements back then is very informative than a whole DW dutch documentaries
Summary:
- here are some horses
- "horsepower" is the power of a horse
- look how technologically advanced we are
great video
That's still crazy when you take in consideration it takes 3 million ants, or 5 men to produce one horsepower, and with that is a specific unit of measurement and at the time you were able to get 85 hp, now we are achieving 200+ in modern day sportscars. You cannot supply that amount of energy with your mortal energy if you tried, let alone the horse is now obsolete in terms of modern day travel. Yeah half the video was horses but they are fascinating animals when taken of what they can do.
Ah I see you didn't understand the actual explanation of 1 horsepower being 33,000 pounds, moved a distance of 1 foot, over the duration of 1 second.
Great comment
Horsepower is actually more than the average power of a horse.
Over 2 minutes in before they even start on the video. They really knew how to keep audiences interested 80+ years later
Great old footage, with scenes you won't see in modern times. With great basic information. Love it!
It's weird that this is more informative than most informational films today It's really presented in a way that makes it easy for almost anyone to understand they get straight to the point in a way that really feels simple and informative this is back when they actually cared about educating people and approached the matter with common sense
I miss those lovely days with black and white pictures .
It was so exciting to hear the band at the beginning of every movie or cartoons... Nostalgic...
“It’s not the number of cylinders that’s important “ they were trying to downplay Fords V8. Still a very good video. I use these to teach my daughter about how vehicles work.
I can see that, but they were not wrong anyway. These videos are incredibly informative
This is the best channel ever for engineering students
5:58 This part must have been aimed at comparing the new Ford V8 vs Chevy's I6
"It isn't the number of cylinders, It's the size and design that's important."
I love these videos. I feel like we lost so much since those days. Wish I knew what was missing.
we got dumbed down by TV
But now we have UA-cam.
Really... it was just the Baby Boomers who were dumbed down... the fortunate ones who lived between a world war and a terrible recession.
what's missing is a desire for knowledge.
@@diggy_the_first replace TV with cultural Marxism
@@TheTdw2000 settle down McCarthy, you probably ought to think twice when repeating Nazi-originated lies like 'kulturbolschewismus'.
these videos are a boon for humanity
In 5:44 there is polish ship MS batory, which began service in second part of 1936. This footage may be recorded during it's very first cruise across Atlantic Ocean :)
They don't make them like this anymore. (The instructional videos). Thank you for this awesome collection of antique media.
This stuff is amazing & so are the advances they made up to today. They are proud of 85 Hp, I couldn’t imagine explaining to them 85 yrs later my 1/2ton eco boost truck comes with almost 400hp & 470ft/lbs of torque. I bet they would be proud
I only buy car in coolie power. My Camry has a 6 cylinder 1200 coolie power
apparent racism from back in the day was apparently racist
This should have a billion views
My horse just threw a rod in the middle of nowhere.
My horse keeps stalling in startup and It keeps telling me to "check engine"
@@jwalster9412 lol
My horse won't start
These videos are awesome.
Now i saw your channel videos.This all videos super and definition are good. I am automobile technician(Electrician).
gorgeous footage,!
Simply amazing...
If you trim the fur, you might get 2HP.
There are also other things that can weigh down a horse... We have to set the horse for optimal racing conditions.
Add some stickers for extra 30hp
Fun fact, as modern horsepower is measured, at full output a horse has about 15hp
@@pauld.b7129 But that's the full output, which the horse can only do for a short time.
Mopeds
Best content .. really explained very well
I love these old movies.
These videos are amazing
1937's documentaries are 5x better than modern day teaching systems.
What?! 85 horsepower!? that's insane!
I know, right? How did they pump that much power out of that engine?
It was probably a v8 too
This video is made in the 1930s before even colour film, and yet I press the like button with confidence before I press play.
Opening scene around the 30 second mark is probably right near Lone Pine, CA.
Film is in amazing quality
It's incredible to think how there are cars now days that produce 500 and 600 horsepower.
I think you mean 1000 HP
talfacprez Top Fuel Dragster is ridiculously extreme. The casual observer probably isn't even aware of how much this is.
Lou Fazio about 10,000 horsepower
Yea, but the expensive engine needs to be rebuilt by an aircraft mechanic after just a few runs. I'm far more impressed with mass produced engines that can last a long time.
@@justinus64 *2000Hp
If only teachers included this video with physic class, I would have understood better. So easy to understand.
What I learned:
Always keep your jam handy
5:45 - polish M.S. Batory. What a surprise! I would never expect I will see a polish ship in an old american technical movie:-D
Greetings from Poland.
Respect the narrator 👌
I’m sold, where can I buy one of these Motor Cars?
Thankfully we don't measure power in units of antpower.
i like how he says "power"
You can tell this came out after Ford introduced their V8 to compete with Chevy's straight 6; they make a point to say that more cylinders doesn't necessarily mean more power.
But V8 is monster and go brraappp
For how ignorant the general population is about automobile mechanics nowadays, even 82 years ago, most of the fundamentals of automobile mechanics are still relevant and explained very well here.
Please. As a " millennial". Never stop posting these classic, perfectly and easily explained videos on motors. I'm mechanically inclined. But my friends are not. And these videos save hours of explanation. Plus, its cool to see how it all started
When the narrator puts it that way, 85 hp does sound impressive. I mean, imagine 85 horses?
Now imagine 500 hoses under a mustang.
Wait, no that makes less sense than it was ment to...
I've never been into cars, but by the end of this video I felt something.
Ok class what did we learn today. I learned how my piston will move back and forth in a cylinder with proper lubrication
Crazy to think that now days we have 1 Cylinder engines making 80HP... Back then it was an inline 6 barley making 80HP
Thanks
Nice information
I'm also automobile engineering
I can only imagine what they would think to know that now a days there’s compact piston engines up to 5,000 hp (top fuel drag). They wouldn’t even believe it
Or a 1020 HP tesla plaid that is just a daily driver...
But they last only 1 or 2 races LOL
What about a car that weighs as much as its Horse power 1300-1300
The coolie...
In Indonesia means rough workers
Thank U
we're watching a video of dead horses by today
Charles Steven Bojos
And many dead people
But what of those horse's offspring? Do their descendants live on today?
What the fuck did you expect? Seeing a 100 year old horse still alive?
Aboriginal and Torrens Straight islanders beware that this film contains images of horses deceased.
I thought horses lived up to 300yrs?
Me ya encantado ver estos vídeos ,pero lo único es que podrían poner subtítulos en español para poder entender un poco más , exelente!!!
That was one nice horse.
Awesome I learned how they created the measurement of horsepower! thanks youtube
veary helpfull
5:49 that a beauty train!
put go faster stripes on your horse for more hp

Let him suck up some funny white powder racing stripes and really watch him go!!
And a spoiler
thank
Ok sir
Nice video
🙏🏻 I’m an automobile engineering student 👨🎓 in Pune, 🇮🇳 India... Thanks 🙏🏻 for the information 🙏🏻...
Now you know our secrets!! 😱
I gave LIKE in the video, it's a beautiful video .. My mother language is Portuguese, forgive me for my poor English.
This video makes an apology for a lie. 1 horse (the animal) has at least 15 h.p. (horsepower the measure). In this same movie we can see 4 horses pulling a loaded wagon (cart) uphill on stony ground.
The engines of trucks, vans, cars are so weak that they need a gearbox with 1st gear, 1 reverse gear and 1 differential, each with a reduction of around 4: 1; ie in 1st gear or reverse, the reduction is approximately 16: 1. If we took all this 16: 1 reductions a vehicle would hardly get out of place.
I hope I have explained so that you can understand.
5:54 someone flushed the toilet
Damn that's some good spotting

OLD but GOLD
nice horse
A horse was doing many jobs like taking out water from a well. They were also driven a chariot. AND during wars they are mounted by kNights. We have a 16 hp and we told them that it had 16 horse power.
Man these videos are fucking great
Hi welcome to HELLO LEYLAND GROUP
Nice good dear
You heard it here boys
Size matters!
No replacement for displacement.
Had a friend who had their F-250 4x4 stuck in the mud...1 hp exceeded the power needed to get it out (I guess I don't actually know how quickly it did it.)
Given enough time I guess
basic of engg got clear after watching this video
Amazing! considering horse racing were popular at that time.
"it isn't the number of cylinders, but the size and design which is important" this can also be translated as, quality over quantity.
3 millions ants = 1 horsepower.
Noted.
there were no computers around at that time, how do they do it . Amazing
