The Industrial Revolution: The Birth of the Modern World
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лис 2023
- The years of the Industrial Revolution are not clearly defined, but the period spanned both the American and French Revolutions, the expansion of empires into the Indian and Pacific Oceans, and the opening of the American West. It began in the 1700s with a shift in one of humanity’s oldest necessities, the need to make cloth to protect their bodies from the elements. The textile industry was the first to be mechanized, to create modern manufacturing and shipping methods, even the first to adopt supply-side engineering, though it wasn’t yet called that. Here is the story of the Industrial Revolution, described by some historians as “…the process of change from an agrarian and handicraft economy to one dominated by industry and machine manufacturing”.

I remember my high school teacher describing the industrial revolution as "a great time to be alive or the worst time to be alive depending on who you were"
Your pauses to take a sip of your drink, especially holding it that way are like perfect for comedic delivery. Great job again!
❤agreed
And then he goes and spills the tea.
its funny because for me everytime the background music stopped playing and he began his 'me me me' rant i right arrow clicked
I was expecting Simon. Pleasantly surprised by Karl.
Thanks for the video 👍🏻
That was very interesting. Karl, I enjoyed how you sipped your tea during some of the humorous parts of the video. 😄

Thank you!
You are an excellent host.
That blazer looks great karl!🎉🎉🎉 Your style rocks!
Did you know the Liverpool vs Manchester rivalry started because Liverpool increased import charges as they were against the slavery in production of cotton. Manchester then built the Manchester shipping canal to circumvent Liverpool.
That was a great little documentary of industry. I hope you make a part two three and four 👍
Love your style and narration karl! Very immersive! Suggestion karl: Henry III. Englands most underrated king
I love how he goes back to his roots and drops random facts.
Well this is incredibly fascinating.
No longer interim host! YAY! Also hello again, heirloom frying pan.
Oh my god it's Karl!!! I didn't expect to see you in class
Thanks.
Okay Simon isnt coming back and he didnt sell the channel.
He never owned the channel. .
Karl is the host for now.
Dont hate in Karl, it's not his fault. He doesn't own the channel. So be nice.
Look in the community posts on here or top tens and theres a video called "its all my fault" explaining what happened with Simon.
Stay Cool 😎
i don't "hate" Karl personally; I hate mumblers, so that hate is applied due to the transitive property. A mumbler who cannot annunciate clearly makes a terrible narrator. Speaking clearly is just one more thing that does not seem to matter anymore... It's gone the way of the hyphen and the Oxford comma.
@@cynic1864ableHe doesn't mumble. You just lack the ability to comprehend his accent.
He DOES mumble and does not enunciate. That coupled with his accent makes him impossible to understand
@@christinebenson518 Next time I think I am listening to a mumbler, I will have to ask myself, "maybe, I just don't 'comprehend' his accent?" Being that Karl's is not that strong, at least to me, I don't think that's it. The mumbling just lazy, especially when one is the narrator. Like not dragging one's feet, speaking clearly should be something everyone tries... but effort is tough for most folks. However, the effort you have shown in determining how my mind works, & what it can comprehend, is impressive, and I do appreciate you putting more effort into clear communication than Karl.
@@jenniferstump3783he doesn't. He is speaking in a way that pronounces his words more, and hides most of his accent. Not being able to understand doesn't mean he mumbles
Was expecting to see Simon but was absolutely delighted when I saw Karl ❤
LOVE the pause and drink for the blazing 25MPH warning for women. 🤣 Thank you Karl! I needed that.
*The guy living in a Narrow boat with the big TV watching this* "He's talking about me" 😅
This video deserves a sequel. I want to know how industrialization impacted armament and weapon productions, tools for warfare.
Excellent documentary! My homeschooled teens appreciated just the right amount of sarcasm and salty language....a perfect attention-keeper!
Why do You talk so fast???? Great source of knowledge and information. Thank You
It's good to see Karl getting into his groove and I dig the bonus facts that he added here!
Ah yes, the Industrial Revolution. An era with
🎵Many different types of machines and factories with machines in them, so they could make a lot of products real fast🎵
I was just about to leave a comment on AI when you brought it up yourself. The script of the video was good at predicting the thoughts of the audience.
Almost as if it was written by....
Agreed. Great unscripted comment.
The Industrial Revolution and its consequences on…..
I think you're referring to Hero of Alexandria who developed a spinning wheel which was powered by steam, but I don't think it was of much practical use, but considering it was 2000 years ago was pretty ahead of it's time!!! Think you're a great presenter btw and keep meaning to look up your own channel.
Fun fact: Coal gas is produced while coking, and before long, it was being gathered and used to provide light in houses, via gas lamps. This gas is also why "Natural Gas" is called what it is, because Coal gas was artificially occurring.
I was originally resistant to a new host, but Karl has grown on me. I hope he stays and is promoted from interm host!
One cirtic on your presentation, try to move the teleprompter so your looking at the camera not to the side of it. Other than that loved this!
Oh man, this is cool. We get a new fact boi!
*Ahem* He shall be known as the Fact Goblin.
Wont be able to watch football now without thinking Cottonopolis United or Cottonopolis City?
I would like to make a statement about Karl referring to donkeys as "stupid animals". Donkeys tend to be smarter than horses. They got a reputation for being dumb because they were outsmarting the people working with them.
it's consequences have been a disaster on the human race
Still loving the channel. Any chance of doing a video on Jim Henson, C.S Lewis or Mother Teresa? Think they would be interesting to know about them. Cheers
All of those are great ideas. I'll check to see if they've been pitched yet. :)
Currently watching this on my canal boat lol
Trains hitting 25mph,more as it’s known to users of Northern trains. Ambition.
I feel like I’m supposed to ask, “where is Simon?” 😂
Danny escaped and locked him in the basement. We are planning a rescue now. Shh
"Where is Simon? Is he safe? Is he... alright?"
It was only a dream
Where is Simon? I want to know myself
@@kayloradoon farm with all the other aging presenters.
or on his own yt channels
I watched this sitting on a canal, and having a smoke
17:06 Wait, to this day? I thought from seeing the original Full Monty that they were basically done by or before the 1990's? What made Sheffield steel so good anyway?
The Industrial Revolution to me is just like a story I know called 'The Puppy Who Lost His Way.'
25:07 Karl ‘It is only the existence of child labor laws that prevents corporations from abusing children.’
McDonalds ‘ Hold my Big Mac, now watch this.’
OMG that was so freaking funny! Traveling at high speeds (25 mph) could make a womans uterus fall out. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wild, right?
Thought this was a biographic show not a geographic show
He makes a video of Silvio Berlusconi, prime minister of Italy
I'm really warming up to Karl as he settles in to the channel and would probably enjoy him as a long term host.
If you're happy with Karl as host, share the new videos around as much as possible. We were gone for several months, so we're not in the algorithm's good graces yet. ;)
agreed, i like him.
He has grown on me. I disliked him always joking but he’s learned that comedy is okay with less serious topics.
George c marshal biography please
English people back in the day "oh we don't have nails, better burn down a house"... Americans "welp we don't have bullets... Better melt idk our forks"
Where are the Luddites these days ? " What say, Silas ? , shall we go to town today to wreck machines ? "
This video explains why I say so often on these videos, that everywhere that the British has been, they are better off than they were before the British arrived. God save the Queen! The Victorian era was one of the greatest errors in human history, and this, from an American
A (joking) backronym for SOS in German is "Seeman ohne Schiff" = seaman without ship.
The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race
Sending out an OSO. Sending out an OSO.
I’m waiting for a biographical on Malik Ambar and more African leaders. Or eastern culture in general. Great host in Karl
I would strongly argue that the lathe was the tool that started the Industrial Revolution
What many don't understand, is that manufactured goods are far cheaper (Not necessarily better) than handmade. True most of the laborers were underpaid, but that's been addressed with minimum wage laws. A pack of 10 pencils can be bought for 50 cents. A hand made pencil would be several dollars at least.
Can you do a video on Edwin Edwards (the 50th Governor of Louisiana), Lester Maddox (75th Governor of Georgia) and or George Wallace (45th Governor of Alabama)?
He law against child labor does not prevent exploitation of children in the workforce, it only assigns punishment. The morality of the corporate heads prevents the exploitation of children.
The guy/gal who made that frying pan would dissagree. . .
The parents had their kids work
25:27 reminds me of my first day in Business Associations back in Law School. The professor asked us to come up with the first three words that pop into our minds when we hear the word “corporation”. None of my words were legally relevant but she loved my third word which was “amorality”. Again not legally relevant but a good idea to keep in mind if you ever find yourself in a position to influence public policy.
And just in case anyone is thinking of crying out “socialist” or “communist”, please note the word I used was “amorality” not “immorality”. My word choice was deliberate.
I thought the history of S.O.S. was interesting. I didn't know it.
14:43 - wait, what happened in 1913? I know in *1813* the first commercially viable steam locomotive "Puffing Billy" on the Wylam Colliery Railway.
The Ticknall Tramway became largely disused by 1913 and the last revenue-earning journey was on 20th May in that year. However, a single wagon was run empty in a return trip once every six months in order to keep the route viable. Ultimately, it was finally abandoned in September 1915 when the local industries fell into disuse, partly because the quarries were becoming worked out and the constraints of the First World War had curtailed much of the local trade. Additionally, the prevailing necessities of war and the need for scrap metal demanded the removal of the redundant rails for melting down.
@@sandybarnes887 No kidding! Thanks for clearing up, what I otherwise thought was a crack in the narrative!
👋
No way.
Another weird thing you've covered in Biographics was that train heist in the UK. This at the very least affected people that you've made Biographics videos on people that you will make videos on in the future.
Steel is not a metal, it's an alloy of iron and carbon.
As for the prosperity of the people...it went to the people at the top. The workers were being exploited like never before.
I don't know why you're complaining, that has always been the case.
"If you go back to 1800, everybody was poor. I mean everybody. The Industrial Revolution kicked in, and a lot of countries benefited, but by no means everyone." -- Bill Gates
Karl jumpscare lol
If you drive certain fords or bmws i made parts for them
Hey, if Simon is gonna have a co-host, Karl is a solid pick up.
Not a co host but replacement
@@jrmckim still solid.
Britain from 1800 to 1900.
20,000 Waterwheels decreased in number.
Windmills decreased in number.
Englishman Thomas Newcomen's 1,500 Atmospheric Pumps disappeared.
Scotsman James Watt's 500 Steam Engines and their descendants increased in number to 10,000,000 !!!
For every SINGLE Waterwheel in 1800 there were now 500 Steam Engines in 1900 !!!
That's an increase in Power Capacity and therefore Productive Capacity for the whole country of 500 times in the space of one human's lifetime.
This WAS the Industrial Revolution and it was all due to only ONE SINGLE Invention, James Watt's Invention of the world's first PRACTICAL Steam Powered Engine.
Take away James Watt's Steam Power and Engines, you get no Industrial Revolution!
Simon’s back with another historical gem. Ah Wait a Minute…
You just about lost me at 22 mins. Then I got mildly interested. Then you lost me again. Oh , wel. Thanks team, at least for trying
SOS isn’t an acronym or a backronym, it’s an initialism. Come on Karl, you’re a writer for god's sake.
He was referring to Save Our Souls, not SOS 😊
@@sandybarnes887 From one Sandy to another, that’s not an acronym either, it too is an initialism. An acronym is a word formed by the initial letters of each of the successive parts or major parts of a compound term, such as NASA or Radar, an initialism is when the initial letters do not form a word like FBI, CIA, or SOS, just saying.
This isn't Simon's channel "what I learned today". Why am I learning things in the comments section.
i hope u finally get accepted to EU.
What Happened to Simon ?
There is a community post explaining everything
He is trapped in the blasement
Wait a moment
Bring Simon back!!!
Where's our man Simon?!
wtf where is simom?
He left when the owner of the channel died, during the grieving period of the daughter of the said owner, and she is now trying to keep those channels alive
first
Wait, did Simon get fired?
No he left over "reasons".
sad @@jrmckim
Did Karl kill Simeon?
This guy needs to learn how to pronounce "industrial" correctly.
Simon???
Bring back Simon
15:50 That would be about as easy as telling a woman: "You CAN get your children vaccinated, it's necessary and completly safe"
Ai is just the exact same evolution as cotton machines.
You are just a (bad) English reading agent that does not add much
No. No it's not. The Cotton machines were a tool for workers to use, LLMS are replacements for workers. Try again.
I bet Simon sold the channel, he doesn’t post as much on this one and I think he’s more focused on Into the Shadows and Warographics.
He never owned this channel. The guy who did died and left it to his daughter. I think she didn't want to pay him what he's owed or something
wow that's sad and I had on idea there was another guy originally. @@jrmckim
That isn't true. She asked him if he'd come back, but he declined. Now she has a new team. Stop making things up.
@@Biographics who hurt you sis?
Where's the bald dude?
Who da fock is Smallwood????
Who is this tool where is Simon he needs to get back making videos
I think you’re going to keep losing your American audience until you replace this man. He doesn’t enunciate, speaks too quickly for the way he mumbles his words together, and has an accent that’s difficult to understand.
Still? He's improved considerably. We have no trouble understanding him...
I can understand him but he does slur a bit
@@Biographics yes. I’m sorry I keep trying to watch your new videos, but I just can’t understand him. I love your channels, and I miss being able to watch them! Your writing and editing is great, and I think you could do well even without Simon. Thanks for replying to me
Im not a native english speaker and he is a little bit harder to understand sometimes but it not that bad, not like tech support from india 😂
This is not a biography.
Wow, this channel is unwatchable now. I miss Simon.
I'm sorry that you can't support one of Simon's former channels. I guess you're lucky he has 10 others for you to watch.
The industrial revolution was the biggest destructive catastrophe that has ever happened to the human race and the world itself.
Respect brother🫡 I collect & sell antiques and have quite a few Sheffield pieces
