EARTHQUAKE: The bellhop who foretold The Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906. - Фільми й анімація
I was born and raised in San Francisco and have gone through several earthquakes. For maybe 12 to 18 hours before they happen there is what I call 'earthquake weather.' There isn't a breath of air, you don't see a leaf moving anywhere and all of nature is silent. You don't hear a bird, a bee, a cricket, nothing. Is almost like all of nature is holding its breath waiting for it to happen. Is very strange.
Great description lucky.
I am 3rd generation San Franciscan … confirm dead stillness prior to quakes
Just a minute or two before an aftershock, my 2 cats would fly out the bedroom window
@@KAMMD We had a parakeet. Every now and then, he would be sitting on his perch and all of a sudden he'd flap his wings wildly for a couple of seconds. Later on the news, we'd hear there was a small earthquake, like a 1.8 or 2.2. Way too small for us to feel, but that little bird felt them.
sounds awefull.
I live in southern California and before an earthquake hits the air gets still, no birds, all animals act weird and hide,,, I've noticed a change in upset weather, unstable a few days before,,, unfortunately I some believe some don't,,, I've seen it
If you care about your life and loved ones youl get out and stay out of California. And off the coast land. The earthquake is not if but when. San Andreas will go. Also an earthquake that runs the Mississippi river. The madrid fault line. You can look up old navy geographic photos of preictions of what America will look like. God gives man dreams and visions. He warns us of what is comming. Take heed of the warning or suffer the consequences
So pray tell where does one go to where there are no life threatening natural disasters
No hurricanes no tornadoes no floods no massive fires no hail storms tossing large ice rocks down upon you no ice storms freezing your ass off for weeks at a time no oozing mud slides no volcanos to erupt someday no sudden sinkhole that swallows your house no blistering heat for days on end?
Did I miss any?
Life is a risk my friend no matter where you are shit happens just try to be prepared
I was born and raised in California lived here all my life I’m an old guy now been through lots of quakes and one flood that took my house out seen a massive wind storm that buried the sky for over a day sending a dust cloud fro here all the way to San Francisco that’s aver 200 miles away the wind was overa 100 mph I’ve seen insect invasions one weird frog invasion and you know I’ve heard horror stories from family and friends that don’t live in California tell me stories that make mine seem mild
I would love to leave California but not because of natural phenomenons it’s all this crazy liberal crap we put up with and this damn lying corrupt politicians and just plain weird people trying to run our lives
But then again they are everywhere too and I’m too old to run away so I just stay here and give’em hell
Yahooooo
@@james4582 My Dad was born in San Francisco in 1920.His folks left Texas in 1919 and I think it was possibly at the end of December they came out here to Calif.It was basically a semi new city after the 1906 Quake.He loved the city,but was real angry at the destruction of San Francisco by leftists and crazies later on. He and his folks moved out to Topanga to work on the Asbury Ranch up there.(His Dad Leo had met Mr.Asbury during his time working as a mechanic i think for White Front) They survived fires and flooding and a real bad earthquake in the 1930s,which almost killed my Grandma and my future Dad.My Grandparrents had survived the influenza in Texas.I don't know why I'm writing you this except it seems to me you'd empathize with my Dad if he was still on earth.Thank you for sharing your bit on your life here.
@@james4582 Hello sir. Thank you for your comment. That was a year ago, 2020. Yes, the year that America was played for fools with a fake plan-demic, and stupid mask-wearing, and forced lockdowns, all to justify the stealing of our election. There is a recall petition for your Gov Newsome. He should be forced out. My Gov Pritzker is also a lying politician. They are even worse than that - they had sold out the people to the fascists. We are now being run by a criminal cabal. A puppet president. A corrupt Congress. I hope you are still well, and I wish you the best sir. I myself am 69.
Let those with ears hear!
I remember this TV series when it first aired. It's better than what they have nowadays. Richard in Dallas , Texas.
So true.
One thing is for sure, their really was a 1906 San Fran Earthquake.
Yea😄 The old couple lived 😍 clap!clap!clap! Great Episode 😄
They didn't live, 😔 they were at heaven's gate.😭
The comment John Newland makes at the end about the telegram is the clincher, chills-wise.
In my childhood " A Step Beyond" was my favorite TV programe.
The 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake occurred at 5:04 p.m. on October 17th with a magnitude of 6.9. The earthquake of 1906 was a magnitude 7.9. After experiencing the quake in the Bay area in 1989, I understand the fear the residents of San Francisco would have felt that day, but imagine the strength of the 1906 quake...boggles the mind.
Never underestimate the power of a bellhop.
So many messages not recieved for bigotry!
Your comment is so imature!
Or the check-out chick
Have loved this show since I first saw it in 1959. I was 11 y/o. I still enjoy it.
Iwas born in 1954 never seen this before ,,leave it to beaver mum would never let us see stuff like this on tv
I was only 7 that year. My parents wouldn't let me watch it. But a few years later I did get to watch the Twilight Zone.
I only remember reruns Twilight Zone and
$5 dollar tip! In 1906! That's $150 dollars today! Crazy Sicilian! Now THAT'S Italian!
The chandelier that starts to come down at 4:09 looks like the same one in "Premonition" where the ballerina had a premonition of the chandelier falling on her.
That's what I thought too! I just watched Premonition last week so it was still fresh in my mind
I had a dream about many people fighting on a plane then it going down, on Friday, 9/7/01, I told my wife, and look how well that went.
When the animals leave it's like the rats abandoning a ship if it is unseaworthy. They can sense certain vibrations from the earth.
It's not psychic phenomenon it's Supernatural Insight and a Gift from the Creator!
@Merrick Cason you're a Pig!,😳😡😂

TRUMP 2021
"Earthquake," Season 2, Episode 17, aired 12 January 1960. John Newland as Himself (Host), David Opatoshu as Gerald Perkins, Olan Soule (as Olan Soulé) as Harris, Harry Ellerbe as Mr. Adams, Elvira Curci as Rosa Bandetti, Martin Garralaga as Carlo Bandetti, Herb Vigran as Grocery Wagon Driver, Oliver McGowan as Mr. Stevens, Gregg Stewart as Harry Perkins, Steve Fenton (Doctor on Right), Wayne Mallory (Doctor on Left), Nora Marlowe as Woman.
The birds and the animals began to act strangely and disappear right before the great tsunami in Indonesia over 10 years ago. They all fled for higher ground.
Robert Gardea no I was not there. I watched interviews from people who experienced this right before the tsunami hit the shoreline. I have heard about this phenomenon in nature documentaries.
Dogs can tell. I was on L. I. and my poodle sensed what was young that am. She got so scared, than I heard the tremors!
When the tsunami happened I felt it in Montreal and said to.myself oh there is an earthquake far away.
Having lived through some of San Francisco's the bigger quakes (but not as big as 1906 -yet) it's scary but afterward, a sense of a thrill like surviving the roller coaster ride. There are some of us who'll say, "iIm feeling a quake" before it hits.
The great tragedy of the San Francisco earthquake was the fact that they rebuilt San Francisco afterward.
But unlike Tornado Alley, quakes do not follow year after year after year
Something strange happened to me. At the time of the Loma Prieta earthquake that morning as my husband and children and I were leaving that morning I felt something wrong and it was a feeling that would not go away all that morning, the atmosphere was quiet and there were no birds or air moving and at two thirty that afternoon I collected my kids and husband because I was afraid, we went to an ice cream shop and we were together and then it happened, the earth quake happened.
Factoid. A man named Amadeo Pietro Giannini, after the earthquake, saw the need to help cover repairs by making small loans out of a wagon. All the banks had been destroyed and even the vaults were still unreachable. So here was Giannini who came up with his idea and a name....Bank of America. And now you know.....the REST of the story.
The nascent period of the golden age of television. So glad YT has that covered.
Keep an eye on the animals--instinctive.
Really good episode.
I totally loved it great show
Compared to the average half-hour tv episode in the years this show aired, this was quite elaborate. Large scale sets, earthquake--wrecked rooms...not the kind of ambitious undertaking they did back then, unless it was a much higher-budgeted show.
@Mr. Moon I'm taking all of that into account. I've been in the business for nearly half a century, and certainly know a lot about effects, production design, stock (set) units, stock footage, step-printing etc, all of which figures into my overall observation. I don't imagine it worth the time to go thru this particular episode ---or any episode---shot by shot. Half-hour shows were generally penny-pinching affairs at the time (and for many years afterwards), of necessity, and seldom ventured into anything requiring the least bit of "spectacle" regardless of how achieved, but put most of their emphasis on story and drama in exchange.
@Robert Gardea Feel free to explain the "you're all over the place" comment, which, by the way, is....? Thanks.
@Mr. Moon It might not be clear in my earlier reply that I don't disagree with your observations re: the means by which clever use of existing assets could belie the stingy budgets of tv shows of earlier eras. Just to be clear about that. thanks.
See the episode about about a tsunami in Hawaii. In parts it was practically a documentary.
@@nedludd7622 Yes. Quite good. Thanks!
They really put a lot into these episodes for the time.
They Never listen!!
Paul Catalano would you? 😉
Mark Hollingsworth I just read it. And I believe you had that experience.
My comment was to the OP though when he said ‘they never listen.’ Would he listen? How many listened to you? And how many believed you?
Have they ever listened?
Box set I own was missing last few sentences from John Newland. Thanks for having this so I could see it in its entirety!
darwinjeff ...lol....think, man. May look like John Newland...who knows for sure? Truth is stranger than fiction, with all respect. TRULY. GOD BLESS AMERICA and every good citizen within it.🕊🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
Really? You could make your own mini series with just John Newland TALKING, and none of his introductions or wrapups were ever needed for the actual series. The stories told themselves. We can simply accept or disbelieve the "mystery."
@@aplicqu8761 In this case, though, the final sentences added to the whole story of the earthquake.
The main actor in this episode played in Star Trek " A Taste of Armageddon", Anon 7 was his name.
David Opatashu was his name
I had to look twice, but yes, Anon7. Half the fun in these shows is spotting stars. 😊
Good call!
@@stevekitt52 Olan Soule -- the crooked bellhop in this OSB episode -- had a non-speaking role in another OSB episode where he played a wet seafaring ghost. In both that episode and this one, he is without his trademark glasses.
@@65if2007 He was in dozens of DRAGNET episodes.
Still good after all these years
And still they keep putting up tall buildings in San francisco. Thanks to the rich and greedy developers.
Great to see so many old Hollywood actors that I recognize 🥰
Thanks so much for putting these on you tube :) God bless you !
I used to live in LaCosta, CA in the early 80s. Been there just two weeks when around 6:00am, my Shih Tzu sat up on the end of the bed and started barking toward the epicenter of the incoming 4.2 earthquake. No shaking had occurred yet. I sat up and said, “Lady, what…”. That’s all I got out before the earthquake started rolling. All the glass in the house made “tinkle” noises. I jumped up and stood in the doorway. She could feel it coming before it struck.
Even today people don't listen.
i saw this one in the summer of 1971 then on easter of 1972, great episode
Even though I don't generally believe in such things, I think I would pay attention just in case. I've heard that Edward Casey's predictions came true, so what if . . .
Edgar Cayce.
*Cayce
Future Events cast their shadow before them...... a book on 9/11 has been written about so many people having premonition about the disaster - too many to dismiss!
the title please?
@@labeate - "Messages, Signs, Visits and Premonitions from Loved Ones Lost on 9/11" by Bonnie McEncancy. Hope that helps, might also be on a UA-cam video.
Tom Clancy wrote a book about it but didn't give the date.
When the animals leave it is time to get the hell out of there fast as you can make it happen!
A powerful story! My late cousin was in the last powerful earthquake in San Francisco. Afterwards, she told me over the phone, that her beloved black cat, Emily Dickinson, had disappeared in her apartment, before the quake. This story is very real to me. By the way, there's a video of San Francisco's Market Street, not long before the quake. It's on UA-cam.
This is at least the second OSB episode that veteran character actor Olan Soule plays without his trademark glasses. The other one was the one in which he plays the ghostly stowaway on "The Navigator".
Very true.
Love this program. Thank you so much for sharing it! Happy Holidays and the best of the New Year to yall :)
Thanks for uploading this episode.
I've always thought knowing the future would be awful! No one would believe any warning you give, and you'd be locked up as being crazy or at least a public nuisance. Then there's the fear I'd feel about my own future.😫
I totally agree! The most horrible thing would be if you knew the exact date you were going to die!!!😮
I really enjoyed this episode a lot! I feel horrible he had to die though! :(
It's saying between the lines that God was telling that man to get his life in order cos it was his time. Like someone else mentioned, real premonitions are a warming from God for that individual.
@@victorysaint And God also made the Sicilian woman believe him so that her and her husband were saved.
"See, I told ya !'
Animals sense a storm or an earthquake before they happens. They get nervous and agitated.
Ask you this question one, ;
These written stories are focused on rich people, as if to imply that poor people are not experiencing such things.
That's the irony of the situation - even if you had the facility of foresight it would be of no help as people would refuse to believe it. What will be will be.
I agree. In the last few days/months/years/decades, there have been warnings from holy people, and other spiritual ones. One of the most impressive is that of the Filipina on a prominent show being interviewed with her husband. Noth? (Not sure of the name of the Reverend). She had had a miraculous healing from a deadly childhood bout with leukemia. She was urged to tell about what's in store for the USA. She said California would be underwater; Colorado would be beset by volcano activity,. She didn't say how much of California; what part; so one concludes it would be the whole of California. He asked her, when? She replied, SOON! I personally don't have the means to move away; and where would one go?
Not quite true in this case. The Bandettis believed Perkins, and they lived to watch the destruction from the safety of the East Bay.
That was quite a good one step Beyond it's too bad nobody believed I think he went about it the wrong way I do believe him I know things like that can happen thank you for sharing the video 👍🇺🇸 🙂
5 dollars was a huge tip in 1906. A Ford car was 500 dollars. The tip was 5 percent of the price of a car.
@bradmyers7109: Sorry, but no. The tip was *1% of $500.00.*
@@elainelessack You are right but it was a lot of money back then. Average car over 30,000 now and 1 percent of that is 300 dollars. No wonder the wife complained. LOL
@@bradmyers7109: Yes, indeed, it was certainly a lot of money, a huge tip! 💸
It really is amazing that every single One Step Beyond is great !! Almost every show or CD or album lays a few eggs, but not One Step Beyond - it's truly a masterpiece / masterwork !! 😀😀😃😃😄😄😁😁😉😉❤️❤️🧡🧡💜💜
Loved this episode!
I could swear “Harry”, Geralds son, is a young Jimmy Stewart! He has an unmistakeable profile!
What a great narrator. Wouldnt you have liked to have him on a Discovery ID series. I put him close to Paul Winfield, the best there ever was on the old "City Confidential" crime series. The best.
Thanks
I born in 1946 in Puerto Rico in the fifties the TV 📺 arrived in the island. I never see these series. Lucy ball and Superman and others I saw in the island. I missed and I know the series would popular. I saw the series in 1970 and twilight enjoy 😉. I remember one the six sense but I never but was discontinued.
That poor guy should've just saved himself.
It's not phychic phenomenon . Lol . It's visions from the Lord God. It happens . It's just the way it is.
Real fact since this really happened.
David Opatoshu was Anon 7 in the Star Trek episode "A Taste of Armageddon".
good one
I just noticed in the credits, the name of Joseph M. Schenck who was a good 'friend' of Marilyn Monroe.
Well, "friend" !!
Joseph and Marilyn had a love affair :) Joseph helped her with her career :) He got her work after one studio turned her down :) He was a very powerfull man :) Marilyn loved older men with power...He left her a note it said " Dear Marilyn i am with you . I know you are right Joe Schenck "
They died one year apart > He died in 61 and she died in 1962 ....it was almost like he knew :) Google there names together it is all there :)
i wonder how they must be acting/behaving after the director must be saying cut.
Thanks a gazillion Pizzaflix*
Person who can see the future acting so crazy that no one believes them cliche
Was it considered a major cliche over a half-century ago when this was written? Also, this is supposedly based on a real person: If the show depicts the way he behaved, would this still be a cliche? Should the director (Newland) have altered history in that case---even if inaccurate---to avoid the perception of this being a dramatic cliche? I'm only asking for an opinion, not as a criticism of your comment. I wonder what I would do myself, as a writer, if I was writing about this same event and this man.
poor guy.
@Mark Hollingsworth hello!
Several SUPERMAN characters in this.
I enjoy these videos. Note to self: stop reading the comments. Not because of potential spoilers but because nut jobs are in the comments inserting their political “beliefs”, ranting that natural disasters are to be blamed on political party...just odd😳
I'm sorry - but don't remember this t.v. show. What network and time (year date) did it air ? Thanks !
Research the info yourself.
Um, we have internet now, in case you live in a closet.
@@jimadams8272 Oh, gee, thanks, I did. Thank you so much for your smart-ass reply. People like you must be ''perfect''.Now go back in your ''closet'' - you ass-hat.
Burton I hope you found your information, these are wonderful programs, we received them later in england ,like a lot of American programs, and visa versa,now TV company's ,and technology, mostly instantaneous, and 1940+1950s + birth of TV ,a lot of people couldn't afford a TV set , so really its a first time for some of these episodes, maybe we've had the golden era ,now its the plastic era of think of what we say,or else
@@terencebarrett2897 Thank you, Sir. Grew up in rural south of Tennessee, south of Nashville. What stations we could get - had never seen this certain show. Reminds me of 'The Twilight Zone', and 'The Outer Limits'. I take I'm not as ''smart'' as Jim Adams. So that you again Terence Barrett.
@Louis Ramos Thank you.
I’ve been watching these back to back. They’re great. But they do always seem to be much of the same storyline with different locations. Entertaining though.
Same storyline? What you talkin' 'bout Homes?
THESE ARE BASED ON ACTUAL OCCURRENCES. IT IS NOT THE SAME STORY LINE FOR EACH ONE.
@@teresajensen9256 the stories are story line
@@rahkinrah1963 Someone foresees an event.
Robert Gardea Lol. Yeah. You could say that!! 😆
I LOVE JOHN NEWLAND
This was the scariest episode yet!! @2:35 he began to rub the ice around his sweaty dirty neck-and then put it in his mouth! indeed!
This kind of superpower must be a burden as Cassandra must have felt centuries ago.
David Opateshew, consumate actor.
Something like this is probably have to happen to bring back San Francisco from what it has fallen to.
Okay, okay. He was right about the earthquake, But what the heck happened to the soup I ordered?
Elysilk - 😲 How could 11 months go by without your clever comment getting its first LIKE? Well, I'm glad I fixed it. [cue epic film music] I only regret that I have but one 👍 to give. [Ya know, taken from the alleged last words of young patriot Nathan Hale, altered to fit]
Unfortunately for this man, going around yelling at people "there's an earthquake coming!" only makes people think you're crazy. I wonder what would have happened had he kept his cool better. Unfortunately, the poor man's drunken history didn't help either.
The hotel manager was an as*hole 🤨...see, too many bosses haven't changed: its all about presentation, reputation & money, not about the employees 😑
only problem is if it was 5:17, the next morning and NOT the previous day's 5:17 pm when he told his boss, it would have been a different day, and not earthquake day.

It really happened in 1905.

I just wanted the horse to be OK.
Off the topic: UA-cam Manager - please turn off my comment section . My husband (the cop) wants us to stop having the comments/notifications. We are experiencing undesirables commenting, namely, nick turner. He is annoying us and refuses to leave us alone. We have addressed his scarcasism and just plain rudeness but he persists by bothering us. We like the YT channel but it attracts poor cliental. What can you do about it. Thank you.
I really wanted to slap this guy for not figuring out that the constant ranting and raving was not working.
This is what happens when all warnings signs are ignored. Fact.
That married couple at the beginning did listen to him …
The bell hop looks a lot like STAN LAUREL !!!
He didn't look remotely like Mr. Laurel!

This is what happens when no one believes.

It can happen again. I wouldn't live in California.
1989..Loma Prieta Quake..I lived thru it.Im glad I was't on the bay bridge that day.Weird to watch telephone/power poles sway back and forth though.My work van hopping up and down as I stood still.
pallaf100 Ther are lots of earthquake prone zones in the USA. Actually, the New Madrid fault zone in Missouri is worse- the earthquake there caused the Mississippi River to flow backward and change its course The whole Pacific Northwest and Yellowstone Natl. Park can wipe us out !
Everyone, live your life as if it were your last day on earth. Simply enjoy every moment. Live with no regrets.
I wouldn't live there either ...but somebody has to! Lol

There must be a time change between the (One Step Beyond) and where you/we live.
History recorded the Earthquake at :5:12 am April 18, 1906 not :513.am
In the early 20th century
People could not sense danger.
Computers were not in play at the time.
To bad this is maybe 280 P, worse than an old video recording.
History roman
It was made 60 years ago, long before CGI, or even computers were in use, so what in the world would you expect?????
