Excellent story but video ended with "it blew up"
Where's the rest of the story?

[@ronstewart2871]

Good question. Maybe it is "to be continued",,, I hope.

[@kyleeaddy5441]

It’s a successful cliffhanger and teaser.

[@curlyflipper2020]

I am form canada and this's what makes me have so much love for America , the first video game came from the states too

[@rickpicone9751]

Dad use to be a TV repairman back in the 50's. We were one of the first on the street to have a TV. A 12" screen in a cabinet the size of a Cadillac.

Hello 👋

[@MrSnead-vp1ll]

This question will be asked in the near future, " So, what came first, the network or the television"?...then the teen asks, "what's a television
, and for that fact , what's a network?

[@ronstewart2871]

FUNNY!

Excellent brilliant idea 💡

[@kraziecatclady]

There's a Farnsworth Museum in Idaho. It's small and kind of niche, but it was kind of cool. I went to it last year as part of a huge road trip with my daughter.

[@gerardjohnson2106]

FASCINATING

[@sammaniotes]

Here is a man, Philo T. Farnsworth, who's invention of television is used daily by both the young and the old; yet he isn't a household name. I hope you finish telling this story.

[@WG7D]

Editing problem? Looks like it cutoff at the conclusion (end)

[@cyankirkpatrick5194]

I remember about this.

If you're only going to put a teaser on UA-cam, LABEL IT CORRECTLY!

Good information

[@marilyndillard6484]

When I was a little girl, we had the FIRST TV on our street,. our house was full after 4pm. Most programs were educational, but we still watched,. wow have things changed..
*(we did finally get music an comedy shows)....NOW ITS MOSTLY PURE TRASH I'M SORRY FOR KIDS, THEIR LOSS BECAUSE OF FILTHY MINDED ADULT HUMANS. LEARN NOTHING OF VALUE ANYMORE.😢🤔 Just garbage!

[@johnsonbecca3960]

[@Eva-augustin]

They liked him so they just gave him money huh ? ....somehow I think there's more to this story

[@RobinPhillips1957]

TV was developed in England, UK. Two systems.

[@iamanempoweredone6064]

Ok. Now for the rest of the story…

liquid metal....i wonder if there could be the same principle
in reverse osmosis to make an image appear invisible or
clothed from a metal object

Hello 👋

👍👍

[@nogoodgamer7585]

The t.v was invented in 1926 and not by him lol he made a copy basically

[@Rocketryman]

Sadly it was poorly produced. You would not have heard of Philo Farnsworth without Vladimir K. Zworykin. Without Vladimir K. Zworykin's patent Philo was just a guy with an idea.
