This is, in a way, more fascinating to watch in 2021 than it might have been some 115 years ago. This was a period of affluence, but unknowingly headed towards the Great War of 1914. It makes one wonder, where are we unknowingly headed today?
We experienced that with corona it was a world wide event that never been in the whole humanity history All the world countries or major cities shut down and went into a curfew so in my book this world wide event isn't anything less than the world wars it killed people all around the world it hurt the world economy etc.
Video was a non-existent technology in 1874, 1901 and 1911. Edison, the Lumieres and Le Prince shot film. Celluloid. Electronic recording was not involved.
There are lots of comments about the styles back then. But remember off-the-rack clothes of different sizes didn't start to get really popular until well into the 20th century. That would make a lot of people in these videos wearing custom fitted clothes. I don't know about you guys but I would look pretty good too if all my clothes were custom fitted!
"Passage de Venus" (Transit of Venus) recorded in 1874 is an amazing thing. Featuring astronomical event taken 147 years before is truly a rare and fantastic thing. It take you back through history.
My dad had an older fashion portable film reel camera in the 70s and 80s. I was a kid in the 80s and still remember "movie nights" Up until early 90s, he would set up the white screen, then get the projector. It was a rare ocassion becsuse the original reel and the ejection reel had to be synchronized, if not the film would bunch up and start to dangle. Then the bulb burned out, and everywhere he looked, all bulbs like that were no longer in production.
My school has photo class where you take and process your own photos, and even that takes like a hour! I can’t imagine how long taking a movie would have been
Enjoyed this! What a precious record. I noticed how everybody wore suits, vests white shirts, hats, and generally, nicer clothes than today, even most kids. Cheers.
Think about it, we got fantastic pictures from the USSR's Venera lander on Venus between 1961-1984, Viking landers on Mars in 1975-1983, Pioneer 10 and 11 in the 1970s, Voyagers I and II from 1977-1994 (still operating), Huygens lander on Saturn's moon Titan in 2004, several European landers on comet and asteriods in 2000s...all pictures were received from far distance with clarity!
The woman tossing coins to the poor children - I ran the characters to the left and right of her and it appears this took place in Japan. The characters translate to: 左側 (Left side): "明治三十二年" ("Meiji 32nd Year," which corresponds to 1899 in the Gregorian calendar). The Meiji era is a period in Japanese history (1868-1912), and the use of a year reference like "Meiji 32nd Year" is typical in Japanese historical contexts. Thank you GTP 4o.
I had thought that "The Horse in Motion" was the oldest at 1878. There was actual an earlier recording at 1873. Muybridge was 1 of the pioneers of the film industry and he had numerous films that belong in the time period that this video covers.
Well, technically, they're not "videos". They're films - movies or "motion pictures". What we know today as "video" first appeared when television was invented early in the 20th Century. The ability to record and playback television created the first analog of what we now call "video". Early television recordings were movies taken off of a TV screen along with the matching audio. These were known as "kinescope" films named after the cathode ray ("picture") tube which displayed the image recorded on film by a movie camera. Video tape technology was developed after World War II. Video recordings were entirely analog until the development of analog to digital conversion late in the 20th Century. i suppose this UA-cam entry establishes the term "video" as a generic term for any recording of images, sound or both on any medium via any technology. Yeah ... I'm an "old" guy ...
Yes, the term seems to have been backdated for some purposes. It has also been applied to the pre-MTV music promo clips that were actually quite common from the 1920s-on. Of course, the ones from the 1970s and probably many from the 1960s were actually videos, but before that most of them were film.
D Joseph Benedict ... Video is a generic term for playback on an electronic screen, but there's still WAY too many shooting / recording these days and calling it FILMING. Why is that? When I question them they get their panties in a bunch then tell me it's just a phrase and I should screw off. BTW, by definition film is a recording medium, but only one of many these days.
Actually, a man made a series of photos of himself that when put together show a rotating head shot. This was around 1860, and it could count as the world's oldest video. Upscale recommended.
@@mikerichs Yes, I agree. "Video" in a very loose sense may describe a moving picture, but the proper meaning of "Video" is an aparatus to transmit and show a live image of something somewhere else, and secondly as a visual medium. "Moving Picture" may mean film but also Zoetrope, magic lantern, and any other picture that moves, even though they are hand drawn rather than photographed. I guess "Film" and "Movie" are the words we've got for "The Roundhay" and other early experiments.
Agree with you 100%, wee look at them today all gone; in the future people will see us on you tube and wonder same thing, enjoy your life now because nobody stay here for ever, life is a round way trip for all.
All those people who didn't see the camera, little did they know they were being filmed and that people in the future would watch them on film long after they passed away.. It's so wild to think about
The clip of 1906 San Francisco is fascinating, not only because it was filmed 4 days before the Great SF Earthquake, but it's a crazy glimpse into the utter chaos of early street travel, with no dividing lanes and seemingly no rules governing right of way (or if there were, no one seemed to observe them)! There must have been dozens (hundreds?) of accidents daily, involving cars, horses and pedestrians alike!
Read Devil In The White City for a fascinating look at what it was like to live in Chicago in the last decade before the end of the 19th century. Bonkers. 10,000 head of cattle a day coming into the city by rail in stockcar to be unloaded at the slaughter houses. On average 2 people per day were struck and killed by one of these trains. Apparently the stench from the 1000's of cattle kept in the, stockyards, the butchered animal carcasses and rivers of blood from the slaughter houses, and the continual influx of trains made up of nothing but stock cars filled with cattle spraying gallons of shit like water from a fire hose was beyond the power of mere words to do justice. It had to be smelled first hand to be believed. Nothing but booze, brothels, and gambling houses. People going missing never to be heard of again was a common occurrence. Absolutely crazy.
There's a chance that accidents didn't happen all that often considering the fact that the speed of transportation back then is snail like compared to nowadays and it's also worth mentioning that the amount of people that could afford transportation such as automobiles is likely less than it is now (combined with the population being lower). Of course back then accidents definitely happened from time to time but the likelihood of a fatal injury from such things seem to be minimal
Fun fact about these daily accidents you mention. Also in 1906 but in Paris, Marie Curie's husband slipped and fell under a horse-drawn cart and it ran over his head. He died. RIP.
I have a picture of my Great Great Grandparents my Great Great Grandfather was born in 1872 and my Great Great Grandmother was born in 1879 my Great Great Grandfather was English.
Just an FYI-Today, digital technology sort of equalizes film and video, but when these historical moving images were made, digital didn't exist, video did not exist, just FILM, so what you're showing here is FILM. The definition of film is a thin flexible strip of plastic or other material coated with light-sensitive emulsion for exposure in a camera, used to produce photographs or motion pictures. Video is an electronic medium for recording, copying, playback, broadcasting, and display of moving visual media. So your title should read, "Oldest Film Ever Recorded".
OK Boomer... ;) whatever them were called back then ( even if , similar to todays' . . I mean , yesteryears' boomers, 1860's kids were born during, or just after, a war )

This thought is actually amazing. Imagine having a Plattform with Videos you wont ever ne deleted or rotting away. Imagine you can see and hear how people lived in 2021 while living in 2221
it isn’t. it’s actually test footage not actually captured…it might qualify as the first animation but isn’t actually moving. the real movie is lost, the true oldest is conveniently not mentioned here. odd, considering that it’s the very film that caused the creation of true motion picture cameras. it’s called “The Horse In Motion” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Horse_in_Motion
I know, all things taken into consideration, life is better quality than it was then. But I can't help but watch these and feel nostalgia for a time I never experienced.
words cannot explain how bad I want to visit the past, its so fascinating to me I want to know what it was like to live during those times, I know I can just watch the videos or hear stories about those times BUT I WANT TO SEE IT IN PERSON
Most don't realize that every soul captured in their moments were just like us in every way. They were living in modern times...they viewed their past the same way we do. They had the same dreams, the same humor, appetite, worries about kids not respecting their elders, what others thought of them, the same aches and pains. Very little actually changes. But its great to see this in moving motion. Glad they've been saved.
agreed, the only difference is that before kids used to respect their elders more than today. Before they would get smacked, today its considered child abuse.
@@velebitsko NOT TRUE! In my Western Civilization class I read a 2000 yr old letter I guess...written by a Greek philosopher, you know, like Plato and Sacrates...only I dont remember his name.

During the era of silent film, my great grandparents worked at the theatre improvising the sound. They both sang and played multiple instruments as well used other material to mimic things like horses galloping and trains clacking. I didn't inherit a bit of their talent but I am proud to have descended from such fun people
This is crazy…my entire life I’ve always wondered how etiquette and daily mobility in people’s lives worked, and that train video , the kid with the hat and his mom, the two women talking just so casually, the woman running and holding her hat …. It just fills so many missing emotional historical questions, this is great, it shows they are just people, and even 100s of years later , that still hasn’t changed. We all still are just, human
I’m 42 years old, my grandmother was born in 1899. I can’t imagine her a child in much of these times and living through leaps and bounds of technology and cultural change! Just wow!
0:54 The old lady walking or dancing backwards in the "Roundhay Garden Scene" from 1888 was called Sarah Whitley. She died just 10 days after that film was shot. She was born in 1816 and is the earliest born human ever to be captured on film. It's a strange thought, but Jack the Ripper's final victim still had three weeks to live when it was filmed. EDIT: It's been mentioned that Pope Leo XIII is the earliest born person on film. Great quality film it is too. I see also that a woman named Rebecca Clark, born in 1804, is claimed to be the earliest born. They say it's possible someone born in the 1700's may have been filmed too. So, like the earliest born person photographed, it seems to be disputed. Doesn't really matter anyway, does it?

Well, although technically "video" because of the very broad definition - "The recording, reproducing, or broadcasting of moving visual images" - I'd say that the vast majority of people would not call these "videos" but rather "film clips". In fact the first use of the word "video" came at the very early stage of television, more than half a century after the earliest of the examples above.

Hmmmm. So MOTION PICTURE FILMS ("movies") are now referred to as "VIDEOS"? Both types of footage are MOVIES. But FILMS and VIDEOS are very different things.
IMO people like your great grandmother whose lives spanned the 20th century saw more change than any other group who have lived. For example, when she was born the airplane hadnt been invented when she died there were people living on a space station.
When my nephew was in his early teens he was always annoyed and complained because his dad (my brother) was taking pictures and video of him. When he was 16 he fell out the back of a pickup and is now half paralyzed, and had 1/4 of his brain removed. Those videos and pictures are the only thing left showing him living a normal life.

@@johnbaxter533 We have yet to experience, as audience members, Aldous Huxley's Brave New World "feelies," cinematic projections of onscreen characters' feelings and scene sensations.
interesting to note that these EARLIEST movies appear to depict very simple and mundane subjects and techniques. I guess THAT was enough cause moving pictures, in their mere selves, were enough of a novelty and wonder at the time. After a while though they had to make the subjects more interesting and titillating and feature more tricks and illusions (or "special effects" as we'd now call them).

@@zzodysseuszz a lot of technology has made us stray further from things that made humans know how to survive and made us all miserable working to make money to buy things we never really needed in the first place. The fact that most people need refrigerators now when we never needed them before has actually become a hindrance. Another example: I saw many people comment under a video of a mother showing what she gives her kids for lunch and the comments were filled with people having no idea what was in the meal and angrily wondering why she didn't just give her kids Lunchables etc... I had to actually explain to them that she was packing fruit, vegetables and meat for her kids and that it was food people ate before grocery stores with junk food existed and someone actually thanked me for explaining... I had considered they were joking but they doubled down and said they genuinely had no idea. I can't figure out how. They were so used to premade junk they somehow forgot what food used to be I guess... Another example is money, as the meme says: "Humans are the only creatures who pay to live on earth". And if we go way way back in time, the decision to stop hunting, gathering, moving around to find food and settle and start farming was a pretty bad idea for a few reasons. One was more access to food which made people more fertile, the more fertile people became the more it changed women's bodies when they got pregnant and to this day, thousands of years later, when women get pregnant some of them still deal with the hormonal change that causes their teeth to rot. Many "advancements" we've made since then has seemed to cause us to take several steps back and have to come up with new technology to deal with it. Dentistry was one of the first medical types of treatments humans had to invent to deal with all the rotting teeth. They have found ancient skulls with cavities mostly after farming started. And all the advances we have today... Most of them aren't needed. I hear people say all the time they envy their pets because their lives are so simple. I don't see humans as being better either because of all the problems we've caused ourselves under the false idea it's all great advancements. We didn't need to do most things and could have still been alive and happy. The only things we really had to do was invent clothes out of fur because evolution decided we needed to lose our fur for some reason and so we all would have gone extinct without clothes...and we needed to eat more variety of food because limiting ourselves to only big creatures wasn't sustainable. There are still humans living ancient ways, not needing money etc... but our "advancements" are ruining their lives for no reason.

This is, in a way, more fascinating to watch in 2021 than it might have been some 115 years ago. This was a period of affluence, but unknowingly headed towards the Great War of 1914. It makes one wonder, where are we unknowingly headed today?
WW3.
We experienced that with corona it was a world wide event that never been in the whole humanity history
All the world countries or major cities shut down and went into a curfew so in my book this world wide event
isn't anything less than the world wars it killed people all around the world it hurt the world economy etc.
Judging by the current events, it's a strong possibility
Nuclear apocalypse
The Great reset, if the Luciferians have their way...
Video was a non-existent technology in 1874, 1901 and 1911.
Edison, the Lumieres and Le Prince shot film. Celluloid.
Electronic recording was not involved.
There are lots of comments about the styles back then. But remember off-the-rack clothes of different sizes didn't start to get really popular until well into the 20th century. That would make a lot of people in these videos wearing custom fitted clothes. I don't know about you guys but I would look pretty good too if all my clothes were custom fitted!
"Passage de Venus" (Transit of Venus) recorded in 1874 is an amazing thing. Featuring astronomical event taken 147 years before is truly a rare and fantastic thing. It take you back through history.
Basically thats what a film is a series of photos moving.
The moving sidewalk is a great idea. Bring it back
My dad had an older fashion portable film reel camera in the 70s and 80s. I was a kid in the 80s and still remember "movie nights"
Up until early 90s, he would set up the white screen, then get the projector. It was a rare ocassion becsuse the original reel and the ejection reel had to be synchronized, if not the film would bunch up and start to dangle.
Then the bulb burned out, and everywhere he looked, all bulbs like that were no longer in production.
My school has photo class where you take and process your own photos, and even that takes like a hour! I can’t imagine how long taking a movie would have been
Enjoyed this! What a precious record. I noticed how everybody wore suits, vests white shirts, hats, and generally, nicer clothes than today, even most kids. Cheers.
Who knew video recording existed 150 years ago? Wondering if you'll discover their emails, radios, and tape recorders.
It's ay may zing how many people apparently never heard of FILM, lol!
I wonder how it actually looked back then.. wish i can see for myself
Shouldn’t it be that the Lumiere Brothers’ contributions can’t be overstated, not understated? (@1:25)
I could go on and on. "Lumiere" is pronounced "Loomy-air" as well. Do some research!!
You'd think we today could have clearer security camera footage.
Lol
oh gee! right on.
It is blurred for a reason
Think about it, we got fantastic pictures from the USSR's Venera lander on Venus between 1961-1984, Viking landers on Mars in 1975-1983, Pioneer 10 and 11 in the 1970s, Voyagers I and II from 1977-1994 (still operating), Huygens lander on Saturn's moon Titan in 2004, several European landers on comet and asteriods in 2000s...all pictures were received from far distance with clarity!
I love this! Thank you for sharing this with us! I see all those scenes and wonder what is there now.
The woman tossing coins to the poor children - I ran the characters to the left and right of her and it appears this took place in Japan. The characters translate to: 左側 (Left side): "明治三十二年" ("Meiji 32nd Year," which corresponds to 1899 in the Gregorian calendar). The Meiji era is a period in Japanese history (1868-1912), and the use of a year reference like "Meiji 32nd Year" is typical in Japanese historical contexts. Thank you GTP 4o.
I had thought that "The Horse in Motion" was the oldest at 1878. There was actual an earlier recording at 1873. Muybridge was 1 of the pioneers of the film industry and he had numerous films that belong in the time period that this video covers.
I often like to think about how these people would react if they saw me just walk up in a pair of Jordans with an iPhone in my hand

Well, technically, they're not "videos". They're films - movies or "motion pictures". What we know today as "video" first appeared when television was invented early in the 20th Century.
The ability to record and playback television created the first analog of what we now call "video". Early television recordings were movies taken off of a TV screen along with the matching audio. These were known as "kinescope" films named after the cathode ray ("picture") tube which displayed the image recorded on film by a movie camera. Video tape technology was developed after World War II. Video recordings were entirely analog until the development of analog to digital conversion late in the 20th Century.
i suppose this UA-cam entry establishes the term "video" as a generic term for any recording of images, sound or both on any medium via any technology.
Yeah ... I'm an "old" guy ...
Never to old to share knowledge.
I didn't know that, thank you sir!!!
Yes, the term seems to have been backdated for some purposes. It has also been applied to the pre-MTV music promo clips that were actually quite common from the 1920s-on. Of course, the ones from the 1970s and probably many from the 1960s were actually videos, but before that most of them were film.
Appreciate for your sharing. Enthralling, for me. Regards,
D Joseph Benedict
... Video is a generic term for playback on an electronic screen, but there's still WAY too many shooting / recording these days and calling it FILMING. Why is that? When I question them they get their panties in a bunch then tell me it's just a phrase and I should screw off. BTW, by definition film is a recording medium, but only one of many these days.
Hi old guy.
I'm less than a minute in, but my understanding is that the oldest film on record was recorded in 1888...
You're right Christina,,, the short of Venus was a series of pictures,, the 1888 is actually a 'film',, hnks
Can you Imagine working in a factory all bundled up in that constricting clothing . This doesn't look like winter as I don't see coats being worn .
Can't imagine how hard it was for children to find their moms at public place when they got lost,everyone dressed up the same
props to the camera man back in 1874
1874's "Passage de Venus" still better quality than the recent so-called UFO videos.

Actually, a man made a series of photos of himself that when put together show a rotating head shot. This was around 1860, and it could count as the world's oldest video. Upscale recommended.
Oldest FILM - there was no "Video" then.
@@mikerichs Yes, I agree. "Video" in a very loose sense may describe a moving picture, but the proper meaning of "Video" is an aparatus to transmit and show a live image of something somewhere else, and secondly as a visual medium. "Moving Picture" may mean film but also Zoetrope, magic lantern, and any other picture that moves, even though they are hand drawn rather than photographed. I guess "Film" and "Movie" are the words we've got for "The Roundhay" and other early experiments.

The clip of 1906 San Francisco is fascinating, not only because it was filmed 4 days before the Great SF Earthquake, but it's a crazy glimpse into the utter chaos of early street travel, with no dividing lanes and seemingly no rules governing right of way (or if there were, no one seemed to observe them)! There must have been dozens (hundreds?) of accidents daily, involving cars, horses and pedestrians alike!
Read Devil In The White City for a fascinating look at what it was like to live in Chicago in the last decade before the end of the 19th century. Bonkers. 10,000 head of cattle a day coming into the city by rail in stockcar to be unloaded at the slaughter houses. On average 2 people per day were struck and killed by one of these trains. Apparently the stench from the 1000's of cattle kept in the, stockyards, the butchered animal carcasses and rivers of blood from the slaughter houses, and the continual influx of trains made up of nothing but stock cars filled with cattle spraying gallons of shit like water from a fire hose was beyond the power of mere words to do justice. It had to be smelled first hand to be believed. Nothing but booze, brothels, and gambling houses. People going missing never to be heard of again was a common occurrence. Absolutely crazy.
India is like this in daily
There's a chance that accidents didn't happen all that often considering the fact that the speed of transportation back then is snail like compared to nowadays and it's also worth mentioning that the amount of people that could afford transportation such as automobiles is likely less than it is now (combined with the population being lower). Of course back then accidents definitely happened from time to time but the likelihood of a fatal injury from such things seem to be minimal
Apparently, painting a white line down the middle of the road reduced the accident rate by orders of magnitude.
Fun fact about these daily accidents you mention. Also in 1906 but in Paris, Marie Curie's husband slipped and fell under a horse-drawn cart and it ran over his head. He died. RIP.
I've always wanted to go back in time and live in different periods. This is the closest I'll ever get😊

Just an FYI-Today, digital technology sort of equalizes film and video, but when these historical moving images were made, digital didn't exist, video did not exist, just FILM, so what you're showing here is FILM. The definition of film is a thin flexible strip of plastic or other material coated with light-sensitive emulsion for exposure in a camera, used to produce photographs or motion pictures.
Video is an electronic medium for recording, copying, playback, broadcasting, and display of moving visual media. So your title should read, "Oldest Film Ever Recorded".

Well, although technically "video" because of the very broad definition - "The recording, reproducing, or broadcasting of moving visual images" - I'd say that the vast majority of people would not call these "videos" but rather "film clips".

IMO people like your great grandmother whose lives spanned the 20th century saw more change than any other group who have lived. For example, when she was born the airplane hadnt been invented when she died there were people living on a space station.
When my nephew was in his early teens he was always annoyed and complained because his dad (my brother) was taking pictures and video of him. When he was 16 he fell out the back of a pickup and is now half paralyzed, and had 1/4 of his brain removed. Those videos and pictures are the only thing left showing him living a normal life. He's over 40 now. So, take those pictures and videos of your loved ones and don't let them talk you out of it. They'll appreciate it when they're older and wiser. So will their kids.

I love that at 4:02, the two gentleman getting on the moving sidewalk not only see the camera, they seem excited by it. The one playfully hits the other on the shoulder and looks like he's saying, "Yes!" though it's probably something else in French, lol.
I think a few passengers retraced their steps and went forward a second time.
Oops!
I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken!
He says, oui
I think they might have been the cameramen. They set up the camera then ran and jumped on before the film ran out.
@@fuckYTIDontWantToUseMyRealName I like to think that the two young men at 4:02 were the first two Videobombers in the history of film
I just finished playing Red Dead Redemption 2, and it was so immersive that it felt like I time travelled, which is one way modern people can experience the past as in these films
Awesome game! Hope you found the dinosaur bones!!
One of the best games ever I played I loved the story and the graphics and how well thought everything
and the time period too and as you said it's so immersive
1:27 even these guys had better camera footage then whoever records ufos
Camera quality in 18-1950 was much better than digitalized cameras of today, yes
reddit?
LOLOLOLOLOL!!! 👽👽👽
Brilliant comment 😉
Lol yes you are right
This is why i always take pictures and videos whenever I go out. My friends find it annoying but I know what I'm doing .A picture is worth a thousand words
And now under Covid we are living in a Historical moment.
I never appreciated pictures as a kid during my younger days now I don't have that much to reminisce on
I always live too much in the moment that I forget to take pictures/videos😕
Alas there are billions who think the same, & thus there are billions of hours of footage billions of people would have no interest in. Very old footage is obviously rare, & thus of far more importance & interest to many.
Would you have filmed the 9/11 ceremony the other week if you’d been there? I saw some were, even the silences, & they should be imprisoned for doing so, the selfish, insensitive twats.
That what my mom told me and i'm glad that I have taken those photo. U can never ever go back to those moment again, it's precious
Wonder how they'd react if they knew someone would be watching them 100+ years later?
I bet they wouldn't believe it
Same to us 😎
Over the internet
Bro think on that all the time lol.
From all around the world!
Just so anyone who reads the comments first knows. The GGGMILF in the thumbnail is not in the video.
You can report the lie. Not that it will do any good. Lying = $$$ on YT.
Dude that jump in the last Olympic event landed on his back with no cushion. Damn they didn't give a damn
Its actually similar to a Fosbury flop.
They were of a different breed. Much more truer to themselves.
But he stood up like nothing happened 💪🏻😂
What about that roller coaster with nothing but benches, not even railings lol!
@@Nate-bn5kk yes..
0:25 The good old days when Corona was just a beer.
Jajajaja
Am dead-😂
(I know it's a joke but)The Corona beer wasn't around when that video was taken
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
4:42 she's giving them money in the same way animals are given food. Thrown on the ground. Sheesh.
And those children are so small and skinny...
She tossed money, tRUMP threw paper towels…or was it toilet paper?
She should be ashamed of herself looking up from hell
Not much has changed in that sense, except the wealthy are less likely to spare any changed at all.
@@XueYangbaby that's how it was, it was normal for both sides back then
Their dress code looks better than todays.
Why is this footage so much clearer than every video of a ufo or other paranormal event these days? 😲
Or even a basic surveillance camera
@@xoxo1700s or even JFK assassination videos
@@HaveRandomQuestions yes exactly
The Watcher: Ever notice now that practically everyone now has an excellent camera with them in their cell phone, you don't see any videos or pictures of UFO's? Seems like the aliens are camera shy.
@@xoxo1700s - specifically bank surveillace cameras!
"Moving sidewalks" of Paris were one of the most amazing attraction of the 1900 Universal Exhibition : they were just a dream in 1880 !
The people in the 1890's must have been really startled, and awed, over a series of pictures that have the illusion of moving. A picture may say a thousand words but moving pictures can say one whole essay.
...the illusion of moving... So they called them MOVIES.
@@johnbaxter533 so that's why it's called "movies", the pictures are move-y
@@Alan-nj2zs movies and talkies.
@@johnbaxter533 We have yet to experience, as audience members, Aldous Huxley's Brave New World "feelies," cinematic projections of onscreen characters' feelings and scene sensations.
interesting to note that these EARLIEST movies appear to depict very simple and mundane subjects and techniques. I guess THAT was enough cause moving pictures, in their mere selves, were enough of a novelty and wonder at the time. After a while though they had to make the subjects more interesting and titillating and feature more tricks and illusions (or "special effects" as we'd now call them).
Absolutely awesome upload my friend👌🏻😁great work👊🏻🍻🍻🍻🇦🇺
You are famous, nuce job
Ooh your Australia did I ask
Australia doesn't exist
It’s amazing how you see so many people out in the streets and having a conversation in person. Nowadays you don’t see people walking outside and side walls aren’t around as much. People just stay in their phones and travel in vehicles.
Australia isn't real
Technology has existed for thousands of years. These are just simply primitive or early stages of modern technology.
Dude, "modern technology" has ruined the planet, where have you been???
@@davisworth5114 industrial society and it's future 🗿
@@davisworth5114 no it hasn’t lmao we’ve barely scratched the planet contrary to media propaganda
@@zzodysseuszz a lot of technology has made us stray further from things that made humans know how to survive and made us all miserable working to make money to buy things we never really needed in the first place. The fact that most people need refrigerators now when we never needed them before has actually become a hindrance. Another example: I saw many people comment under a video of a mother showing what she gives her kids for lunch and the comments were filled with people having no idea what was in the meal and angrily wondering why she didn't just give her kids Lunchables etc... I had to actually explain to them that she was packing fruit, vegetables and meat for her kids and that it was food people ate before grocery stores with junk food existed and someone actually thanked me for explaining... I had considered they were joking but they doubled down and said they genuinely had no idea. I can't figure out how. They were so used to premade junk they somehow forgot what food used to be I guess... Another example is money, as the meme says: "Humans are the only creatures who pay to live on earth". And if we go way way back in time, the decision to stop hunting, gathering, moving around to find food and settle and start farming was a pretty bad idea for a few reasons. One was more access to food which made people more fertile, the more fertile people became the more it changed women's bodies when they got pregnant and to this day, thousands of years later, when women get pregnant some of them still deal with the hormonal change that causes their teeth to rot. Many "advancements" we've made since then has seemed to cause us to take several steps back and have to come up with new technology to deal with it. Dentistry was one of the first medical types of treatments humans had to invent to deal with all the rotting teeth. They have found ancient skulls with cavities mostly after farming started. And all the advances we have today... Most of them aren't needed. I hear people say all the time they envy their pets because their lives are so simple. I don't see humans as being better either because of all the problems we've caused ourselves under the false idea it's all great advancements. We didn't need to do most things and could have still been alive and happy. The only things we really had to do was invent clothes out of fur because evolution decided we needed to lose our fur for some reason and so we all would have gone extinct without clothes...and we needed to eat more variety of food because limiting ourselves to only big creatures wasn't sustainable. There are still humans living ancient ways, not needing money etc... but our "advancements" are ruining their lives for no reason.
@@davisworth5114 Hah no
As i sit here looking at all these beautiful people, and knowing they're all gone now makes me feel sad. I wonder if any of them are my kin.
Don't worry. They are us, we are them. They just recycled into us. And the same will happen to us as well ❤️
@@dootdoot94xo44 Exactly! Where did this idea of " reincarnation " come from? Smh
@TheLee Yeah well that's bogus for sure. People are confusing Deja vu and Lamais vu with all these previous life memory nonse. But I meant our physical bodies are broken down by nature and are in a way cycled back into the ecosystem once we die and are remade back into us after a long cycle. Not talking about the soul. That stuffs spiraling into the afterlife. Wherever that is
@@AP-ex6qz Idk I'm kinda confused of reincaration is real or not
