As it is often said, "try and try until you succeed", a hundred and one failures must come to pass before achieving success. Man has definitely succeeded in its quest since time immemorial to conquer the skies. A testament to the will power of the human spirit.
Judging by the shape of some of those machines (resembling WWI era planes), the quality of the recordings (and the fact that they had access to cameras in the first place), the automobiles in the background in some of them, and the use of relatively advanced engines in some others, I would say that at least some, if not all of them were made long after the Wright Brothers' flight, and by people who were ignorant of quite a few things that were absolutely known by that time.

It’s nuts to see these machines now. I’m not an aeronautical engineer and flight is so well known now that I can’t even fathom what these people were thinking. Most aren’t even close to flying. How far we have come.
These are not aviation pioneers. Aeronautical engineering was already a well-established profession by the time these films were made: think of the airplanes that were flown in WWI. These are crank backyard inventors who didn't exactly know what they were doing. This series of films were presented as amusing novelties to audiences of the 1920s~30s.

Don't knock the crank backyard inventors too much. SpaceX, Axiom, ULA and others are part of that group.
No, no, no, no, no. The SpaceX, Axiom folks are qualified, experienced engineers working in a corporate organization. The amateurs in these early videos didn't seem even know the basic engineering already established in their own time.

@@marcinna8553 Even the greatest engineer started out with nothing but a dream and a crude first attempt. It's not like they had the internet and computers to assist them, and most real advances in aviation were classified, patented or just unavailable to the public.
I have a reference book, Putnams series, which covers early flying machines, which were by definition 'experimental'. Many of the pictures are captioned "the only picture of x and his machine, taken before flight" ie they died shortly afterwards in their crumpled machine. Although many survived due to the low speed and altitude involved, many such as Charles Rolls (of Rolls Royce) did not.
The crazy part is all of these were from AFTER the airplane had been invented. Yet these people were trying crazy concepts that obviously would never fly.
Surprised you didn't show the early parachute test in Paris. Maybe its too graphic. I like how most of the videos end with a guy being happy to still be alive, lol.
1:30 x 4:45 When the Internet was still young, I saw the further development in the form of a rotor drum built into the fuselage x it works, later never again.
They are pioneers of experiments,I don't agree with the comments that they are nothing, it's izzy to commenting from lazy position try to have a gut to jump like them, world will never forget your sacrifice RIP to all those who try❤️✨
So many people take for granted the lessons learned in the past so we dont have to. We judge these people harshly and pretend to be superior knowing that we dont have to test a rocket on ice skates or a glider with an unprotected person attached.
Reminds me of how the Wright Brothers flew until they learned from Gustave Whitehead in Bridgeport Connecticut. Gustave was flying 2 years before these Wright Brothers in 1901 in front of 10 eyewitnesses who filed affidavits in Court about this.
7041 was close to something engineers have done recently. Also, that helicopter one towards the beginning, seemed pretty promising since it actually did lift.
Well people never saw anything that flies before, only birds and insects, and his design has all parts to lift it self, so some kind of rocket and wings that are angled slightly up, just like any plane in 2024.
We aren't allowed to see the vast successes of early flight. We are to see only the failures. Some of these in this video fly, but the clip cuts off, and we are left to think it was a failure. weird designs did fly in the late teens and early twenties. It's very difficult to find film of them, but it exists.
Many may have, but that wouldn’t be shown here… it’s baffling how they seemed to be so unaware of the danger. Only when the contraptions started breaking apart there was a glimpse of alarm.
it's simple to build a car once someone knows how. it is not easy to be the first one to build a car. quick, build me a teleporter. someone figures out how to make one in fifty years with stuff in your garage. it should be easy, right?
Hey, you got to start somewhere, kudos to these men! Thank you all for your perseverance!
I don't know much about aviation and related fields, but I did learn at a young age that a bedsheet makes a poor parachute when jumping out of a tree.
You, as well.....
umbrellas equally so..take it from me 😂
Thanks for the laugh.. great comment 😂
Umbrellas don't do better, believe me...
You can add pogo sticks as inadequate to cushion the fall from a tree - It's a cruel world.
"If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There's no sense in making a damn fool of yourself." ~ Mark Twain
That was both fascinating and terrifying at the same time!
Love the propellor drop at 2:53
Those daring young men and their flying machines..
Those daring young men and their death traps ..
They go uppity up up, they go downdiddle down down.
The shear size and weight of some of these contraptions. I amazed that they thought they’d get off the ground.
Thanks to their experiments others knew no to bother with some ideas, if not them Wright brothers could be playing with tractor strapped with a bird wings and we would still not be flying.
Those people standing right next to those meat slicer propellers. 😂
With all the attempts going on at the time, it's amazing the Wrights ever found Gustave Whitehead.

With certain mind set, one can visualize if the machine have a potential, or not! Best example is at 3:39, such an incredible design
Boeing has approved all of these for production
😂
Yeah, and implemented some of them

2:41 , they were onto something, probably don't know WHY the birds wings lift it but they were getting warmer
IMAGINE their surprise when they found out that the wings did not need to flap
@hindugoat2302 yes , they were on the right track
3:41 looks like the washington monument in the background. it took 40 years to complete, completed in 1888. amazing how undeveloped d.c. was.

Kudos to the ones that have it a try.
4:26 amazing dude didn’t get chopped into bits
Look at the guy on the left laughing as he's quenching Rocket Man's flames. I'm referring to the rocket backpack. 0:54
3rd degree burns to the rectum....
hilarious !
Have to admire them for trying!!!
Some of these are just hilarious.
we need a goofy 1920's music for this
Yakety sax in the background and x1.5 would do.
mans ingenuity never ceases to amaze me.
They taught us what not to do and don't credit for that. Sadly, just laughed at.
Great Preservation thank you ! But to be honest! Why a digital Time in this big size in the Video? This looks really out of place!

so many had the exact right ideas just not enough thrust. Bad power to weight ratios. But so , so close.
Those daring young men in their flying machines.
All these people are famous. Many we have seen before. They are timeless.
Каждый из этих энтузиастов авиаторов по маленькому шажку приближали нас к созданию авиации и космонавтики их заслуга не оценима

Love the attitude back then of if you don't die, you've succeeded
The crazy part is all of these were from AFTER the airplane had been invented. Yet these people were trying crazy concepts that obviously would never fly.
There is a distinct lack of feathers on those contraptions.
What's most remarkable about this is all the idiots standing around near the huge, rotating propellers and other things.
Surprised you didn't show the early parachute test in Paris. Maybe its too graphic. I like how most of the videos end with a guy being happy to still be alive, lol.
If Boris Johnson was an aeronautical engineer. Seen before but still so funny, trying to lift 2 tons of engine with a spinning umbrella.
It's crazy how most of them tried to put wings on a bicycle

These are first UA-camrs actually.

Been on a few of these to Spain
Every race has a ‘fell at the first’.
