The history of early flight pioneers is filled with failures and crashes as they attempted to achieve flight, despite many failures, these early flight pioneers persisted in their quest to achieve flight, ultimately paving the way for the development of modern aviation.
If you need this clip for offline edit let me know, i'll send you a link. With time all movies will be available on the site.
Hey, you got to start somewhere, kudos to these men! Thank you all for your perseverance!
"This video beautifully shows how strong and ancient the human desire to fly is. Every failed attempt was a stepping stone toward success. These early experiments paved the way for the modern airplanes we see today. Incredible information and an inspiring story! 👏✈️"
It also shows why we have the Darwin awards.
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.
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.
Man as in mankind? Strange, I only see men.
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.
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 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.
Блогодаря упорству таких людей, мечты сбываются .
НЕТ.
Мечты - сбываются благодаря людям, которые еще НА БУМАГЕ могут отличить "ерунду" от "идеи", которые стремятся К ЗНАНИЯМ.
Здесь - подборка неудачников, "главное просто верить", ни один из них так ничего толкового и не создал.
Фильм укрощение огня,,,,,Королёв начинал с ерунды? ,,,,,
@@StareCG Знаний на тот момент было недостаточно, их набирали в том числе эмпирическим путём. Более того: глядя на типичные конструкции крыла до Первой мировой (да и отчасти в ходе неё) подозреваю, что о том, что работает 4-й з-н Бернулли не подозревали, а копировали хорду крыла птицы.
@@ЮрийДымченко-е2пкоролев сидел в тюрьме лохотронщик значит ничего он не изобрел как и Бартини и Костиков
Если следовать твоей логике дальше, то мечты сбываются благодаря горящим пердокам этих людей...
Love the propellor drop at 2:53
Boeing has approved all of these for production
😂
Yeah, and implemented some of them
0:27 you already have the plane!, you still want flying?
1:08 - I see today's drone design isn't new. This looks like it almost worked.
After I wrote somthing simlar I seen this commet. 😂
damm that part really scary 😨
Those people standing right next to those meat slicer propellers. 😂
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
With all the attempts going on at the time, it's amazing the Wrights ever found Gustave Whitehead.
Santos dumont 🤫
The ingenuity is just hilarious - also the lack of competence and common sense … that clip where the prop just detaches without even spinning 😂
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.
3:45 Capitol Bldg in the background. Old Post Office Tower too. Would have been south of town, possibly even the area where Reagan National is today. Wrights flew at Fort Myers.
@@crimony3054 interesting, in relation to each other maybe a little north of dca, you can see what looks like a railroad bridge (395?) in the beginning of the video, maybe the south end of lady bird park, the washington monument looks really close.
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.
Brilliant; hats off to all of them.
That's essentially how life evolves on Earth. Lots of random attempts during a long time, most of them destructive, until someone just comes up with a workable design.
SUPERHEROES ! ❤
Каждый из этих энтузиастов авиаторов по маленькому шажку приближали нас к созданию авиации и космонавтики их заслуга не оценима
.
4:26 amazing dude didn’t get chopped into bits
Ber Terimakasih lah kepada ilmuwan ilmuwan dahulu, karena penemuannya apa yang ada di masa sekarang kita bisa menikmatinya.
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.
Did you guys see the African modern day video like this. It's funny asf.
African airplane compilation. Check it out 😂
Some of these actually got off the ground.Just not in a very controlled way.
Kudos to the ones that have it a try.
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.
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.
Hommage à ces pionniers de l'aviation, merci pour ces images d'un autre temps !
The guy flying the plane at 2:45 finally figures out how to get one in the air and the first thing he does is purposely fly it into a barn. Boys will be boys!
if your bro is filming you,
you gotta give him a show
No that is called Barnstorming ..was popular in the 30's .. lots of old obsolete planes available and ww1 pilots with nothing much to do .. Curtiss Jenny's where popular for this ..they where cheap and the airforce retired loads of them in the 20's
Sad hobby😖
Have to admire them for trying!!!
so many had the exact right ideas just not enough thrust. Bad power to weight ratios. But so , so close.
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
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 !
2:35 "Stewardess! Bring me another Rum and Coke, please..."
4:04 .. So close .. Russians have been doing that for years .. If he had contra - rotated the props iit would have almost certainly have worked .. as it was it must have been really hard to control ..
The top two and the bottom rotors run in opposite directions if you look closely. if they didn't, the entire apparatus would rotate. The problem was often a lack of engine power, which was fortunate for the inventors because it saved them from falling from great heights.
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.
Железные люди, даже падая с высоты, и им хотьбы что, а радости сколько на лицах! Уважение
The flapping wings 😂
As the contraption fell to pieces
It's always the Steps of failure to finally reach the step of success
0:35- I have no idea what this is supposed to do!
Love the attitude back then of if you don't die, you've succeeded
All these people are famous. Many we have seen before. They are timeless.
we need a goofy 1920's music for this
Yakety sax in the background and x1.5 would do.
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!
Awesome Footage.
These people are dedicated for task love them ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Some of these are just hilarious.
Those daring young men in their flying machines.
Tep by step... history engeener 👍😎
2:35 The crackling insect 😅
இத்தனை அறிவியல் மாமனிதர்கள் எடுத்து வைத்த சிந்தனை அடிகள் தான் ...
இன்று நாம் சொகுசுசாகப் பறந்து கொண்டிருக்கிறோம் !
❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
Во времена развития авиации авиакатастроф было не меньше чем сейчас.
"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
There is a distinct lack of feathers on those contraptions.
ขอบคุณ..ครูบาอาจารย์...❤😮❤
7041 was close to something engineers have done recently. Also, that helicopter one towards the beginning, seemed pretty promising since it actually did lift.
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.
Благодаря упорству, любознательности и смелости наших предков мы летаем на комфортных самолётах.
What is this thing at 0:37?
The multicopter at 4:00 counts! Also the airplane before it.
The airshows were the realthing in those days😂
All those failures make my day👍
I could swear there used to be a TV show that had those wings collapsing in it's intro, or maybe it was an old 80's MTV video, can anyone remember it ? 2:27
Without their trying back then, we wouldn't have got what we have today.
The airplane was invented by the Brazilian Santos Dumont. The airplane as we know it today was invented by him. The Wright brothers invented an object that was planted and depended on external help to take off. It depended on a catapult.
It's crazy how most of them tried to put wings on a bicycle
Cameras those days ,pretty great
The first UA-camrs risking their lives for likes.
titolo della musica?
The guy with the rocket bike was a little thick to be getting anywhere haha
What's most remarkable about this is all the idiots standing around near the huge, rotating propellers and other things.
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.
If Boris Johnson was an aeronautical engineer. Seen before but still so funny, trying to lift 2 tons of engine with a spinning umbrella.
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.
Dude at 4:55 came so close to becoming chop suey
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.
Большинство этих аппаратов, по-моему, были сделаны просто для фана)
Some machines are really weird made and might never go up.
Some people even trying useless machines. Too much hassle.
But yeah trying to make something that might fly based on some wild ideas and they looked even at birds...
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 THAT’S how Boeing got started….
4:43 why do I have to think of Wile Coyote? 🤔
These are first UA-camrs actually.
These guys with turning blades next to their heads sure were brave, or incredibly stupid
Knowledge lack of physics, determination, obsession, dreams...
3:51 What a bad ass !!!
Never give up look at the hi tech flying machines we have today
Man, that was awesome!! Those guys had grit and guts. Some serious stuff there!👍😂🇺🇸❤️
But not always the brains.
Why the American flag? 😂🏳️🌈
I got more air from my cape off the top bunk in 1973
The huge drone looked most promicing ;) 1:09
Been on a few of these to Spain
I see that NASA is at it again.
Born to crawl, dreams of flying.
This reminds me when I was a kid building with Lego's
Respect total 🫡
Looks like some of these are funny clips from movies.
Some of them were used as such!
@oldtimer2192 yeah, right?
How we’ve moved on. You could of put more better music to suit
That one looks like a modern drone.
It’s hard to imagine the absolute stupidity of some of these inventions.
They all worked with telekinesis, that's what these pilots forgot.
Da hat er sich mit seinem Raketen Schlittschuh Anzug den Arsch verbrannt. 😂😂
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?
