These are so good. I love the Victorian era and it’s usually so difficult even with a vivid imagination to hear the sounds and the sights. This is as close as it’s going to get. More please! 😊
What a brilliant video, I'm loving all of these. They really bring History to life and when you think of it, it could be the best thing yet of glimpsing into the past. A whole data base of films like these could be made with the advice of Historians etc. The graphics on computers are so good to do this now, and it makes me think that the average human may live up to100 yrs but look at all these life's and what we have done in them, to contribute to the future. we can't see the future but we can defiantly go back to the past. Just seeing the Thames so busy is an eye opener in it self and it was like this all over Britain. Brilliant ❤
London.
Then..The Greatest Seaport on Earth.
Great video! 👍
Oh the good old days,, when life was so much simpler and real..
Think of the air at that time, though. Tons of coal smoke and soot plus tons of horse manure. Imagine a hot summer day with all this in particular. The great impetus that led to the invention of the automobile was the realization that if the industrialized society continued to expand at the rate it was, the ever increasing amount of horse manure would become intolerable and eventually turn the cities unlivable. Also, I recall when I was a child reading about the decision to sandblast clean Parliament, Westminster Abby, St Paul's Cathedral, and other of the most important buildings in London which people had assumed were all constructed centuries earlier in a very dark brownish black stone. But once the sandblasting began, Britain was astonished to realize that these buildings were actually made with medium light beige stones. Britain and the world learned the reason all those buildings were 'dark' to 'black' was, not because the stones in construction were that dark color, but because over a century or more of coal dust and soot accumulating layering over them as the Industrial Age advanced decade after decade.
I love this, excellent
I'm amazed by the amount of traffic on the Thames. There must have been collisions all the time as there doesn't appear to be any rules of travel with boats not keeping to any easily identifiable lanes! Also, I think this was the time when the Thames was effectively an opened sewer (a major health risk especially if you fell in it) so it must have stank, especially in warm weather.
I cannot believe this is just a modern recreation of times past, it is too good, too realistic, too mindblowing! So tell us how you managed to travel back in time to film this?
I like the colour given to the water of the Thames here, a sort of diahorrea brown. Given the "Great Stink" of the time, that's quite believable.
And I don't suppose it's changed all that much in 2024
@@johnhuggins1394 its not brown anymore. More grey, and there's quite a lot of livestock now, including the odd lost whale or 2!
I must say, everything looks clinically clean in 1868.
Even the river traffic looks spotless.
We know that the Thames absolutely stunk of Shit in those days, and if you fell in, you were sure to die of some decease even if you could swim.
You are the BEST....!!!🥰😍🤩
Cannon street station was a very busy one, the bridge would've had many trains going over!🧐
This Assassins Creed game is one of the best. I nearly beat it 100%.
Victorian Era 1837-1901.
Have you got a ‘video’ of the Milbank Penitentiary view from the Thames. It stood in the 1868s where the Tate Britain is now.
WOW !!!
Lots of these reconstructions are dated 1868.
What's the big deal about 1868.
Wait what?
London is supposed to be one big hotel, not a factory.
Get it right.
Has more the aura of Shanghai than London. It's something "asian" about it.
