Just how amazing it would have been if the exhibition had been preserved as a museum.
They tried to preserve the building, moved it (it was designed to be broken down and put back up) but then after a short period of time it burned down.
I love the energy in the narration. Adds a whole new depth to history, and the music is splendid
The music is pretty rad too ;) I always end up boppin my head lol
I agree! I love Tez's energy and enthusiasm.. it draws me right in, whilst bopping to the music! 😁🙋🏻♀️
Does anyone know the names of the songs/artists?
I recognized one of the songs as the theme from The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and alot of the music sounded familiar but I can't place it.
Thank you very much. I do get comments saying there’s sometimes too much music … you can’t please everyone I suppose. I do get a little bit carried away whilst editing I think😆. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. Tez
This is literally the best UA-cam channel in existence
That’s so nice of you, thank you. Tez
@@verynearlyinteresting your very welcome my friend
Terrific presentation. Unfortunate such a large percentage of the exhibit are lost to time...
Brilliant vid, Tez.. I was riveted from start to finish! Fascinating history about the Crystal Palace! 👍👌🙋🏻♀️
Thanks @pimpozza I’m so pleased you liked it. Tez
Great episode. Love your channel.
Thanks Billyo that’s very kind of you. Tez
Omg! This is utterly fascinating! I’d always wondered what had happened to the Crystal Palace, so thank you for letting us know. I have a fact that you probably don’t know:Hamilton, Ontario, Canada built a smaller crystal palace in their park ( which to this day is called Victoria Park) It was built for visit from the Crown Prince. I wish I had a picture that I could share with you of it. Thank you, yet again for your amazing videos. I am always so excited when I see them posted!
Oooh I didn’t know that … I’ll have a Google and see if I can find something. Thank you as always Stephanie for your lovely comment. Tez
@@verynearlyinteresting if your son lives in Ontario: they are building a pavilion in Victoria park based on pictures of our crystal palace. We also have historic markers around the park and one of them has a grainy picture of it.
I will definitely do a bit of Googling of that Stephanie. My son is a short train ride from Toronto (my geography is not great!). I’ll let you know if I find out anything about it. Speak soon! Tez 😊
Love your videos! You are a great history teacher!
That’s very nice of you to say, thank you. Tez 😊
Loved it all...as usual
Thanks Pattycake 😊
This was great, thanks!
Thank you 😊. Tez
A glass and iron building burned to the ground? That's a modern miracle!
I know but sadly it’s true. There’s footage of the fire on UA-cam if you search for it.
Metal melts and loses its strength if it's hot enough. The World Trade Center is an example.
@@gmaneis Very much aware of that. But fuel is required to feed the fire. BTW, my comment was intended to be ironic.
@@williamsherman3047 😁🙂
It had wooden floors and interior partitions
FANTASTIC!!!
Thanks! Tez 😊
Hi from Iowa... one of the best channels I've found in the past year🤘💯
Hello in Iowa! Thank you so much for your lovely comment. From Staffordshire, Tez
This one was great, Tez! Hadn’t seen most of these, though I did see a great exhibit at a Dickens Fair in California, with a model of the palace and several models of the inventions. This was definitely interesting! You outdid yourself!
Oh wow! I would have liked to have seen the model of it. Thank you Dawn as always. Tez
Very good!!
Thanks Timothy. Tez
Love this
Thanks Steve
i really enjoyed this video Tez, we had a similar exhibition in Sydney in the 1800s, it was called the Garden Palace and looked like the Crystal palace, but it ended up burning done.
Thank you as always! And … I didn’t know about that, I’ll have a Google! Tez
@@verynearlyinteresting your welcome
The Crystal Palace went from conception to completion in less than a year. It was designed by Joseph Paxton, who was better known as a gardener than a civil engineer; however, Paxton had pioneered the use of modular glass and iron frameworks for building massive glass houses, and really knew his stuff! The building was designed to be a temporary structure, but actually lasted over 80 years before the unfortunate fire that destroyed it.
I have to say My Good Man, that these types of uploads are the *Gems among the Rubble* . As both a Wood & Steel Worker, *FFF* ( Fabricator, Fitter, & Fixer ), in My Days, I've always been interested in the Analogue, Manual, & Mechanical,.. & The way you Exact these Little Nuggets of Knowledge on Your Audience is Nothing Short of Exemplary . . Thank You.. 👌👍
Thank you so much Michael, what a great comment to receive. It’s very much appreciated and I’m really pleased you enjoyed the video. Tez
My mother was a 10 year old girl when the Palace burnt down, she watched it burn.
Oh wow!
The building itself was amazing
I’m wondering how many of these manufacturers are still around???
Brilliant! So interesting!
Thank you Yvonne, I’m glad you enjoyed it. Tez
Interesting
My great great grandfather who was eight years old was working in a brickworks in 1851 .
Oh wow!
Wonderful, so interesting
Thanks as always Philip. I’m really glad you liked it. Tez
Well, Tez, you've done it again! Brilliant subject presented brilliantly! I've read and watched documentaries on the Crystal Palace for many years-- not many have touched on the technical exhibits inside (honestly can't name one). I've been woeful of the Palace's untimely demise all those years ago-- that sparkling jewel of architecture would still wow the masses to this day. A commentor before me mentioned how wonderful it would have been if all the exhibits had been kept inside for decades as a museum. I heartily agree!
Britain during the Industrial Revolution and the later "Machine Age" boasted a great deal of worldly innovations and firsts: think Isembard Kingdom Brunel, et al. You've got alot of rich history to draw from, Tez, get on it!. The Crystal Palace is a brilliant start to all this! A great opener to a series! I look forward to more!
I’ll definitely get on it! Thanks so much for this great comment, always very appreciated. Tez 😊
Thanks, Tezza.
The fax machine blew me away, but the self-registering thermometer was almost identical to one I used when I was a lab technician in the 1980s. THAT really blew me away. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Have a great day bro.
Hi Perry! Nice to see you again … and wow about the thermometer! 🤒
Your channel name is selling it short. This is VERY interesting.
That’s so kind of you, thank you. Tez
Thanks Mr VNI (in that London 😁👍) 💚
Hi Gaynor!😊
If I had a Time Machine it would be events like these I would visit. I wish they had a loved it button for videos that stand out for context. Thank you! 😅
Thanks Brian. I actually do have a ‘loved it’ button and I’ve just pressed it for your comment 😆. Tez
Thanks Tez for an absolutely cracking video! It was indeed a showcase for British progress and ingenuity but apparently half the exhibits were from foreign countries, the United States being particularly well represented including I believe the Singer Sewing Machine! Can't wait for your next vid mate.
Thank you so much Keith! And I didn’t know that the Singer Sewing Machine was there too! Wow. Tez 😊
If I could time travel the two world expeditions I would love to attend are this one and the Chicago Columbian Exposition in the 1890's. I did go to the 1964 New York Worlds Fair, I was nine years old and I still remember everything about it.
And I also think my i-phone is a miracle...until I get the bill at the end of the month.
Very Good!... #11 {5-14-2024}
Thanks Carl 😊
The Crystal Palace continues to amaze audiences, especially that 4-0 victory over Manchester United. In all seriousness though, Crystal Palace are about to redevelop Selhurst Park... and yes, it will feature an all-glass frontage, inspired by the original Crystal Palace. So... sort of being rebuilt, a very tenuous sort of I grant you. If you ever get the chance, visit the Crystal Palace subway, which is all that remains of the old High Level station.
Wow what a great comment thank you. I will put that on my to-do-list next time I’m in London. Thank you. Tez
Very interesting vlog in any case.
Thank you 🙂Tez
What kind of mic are you using?
It’s a DJI wireless lapel mic - in a cradle … screwed on to a boom pole. You can use them on your lapel but the sound quality is much better if you speak directly into them, particularly when shooting outside. Tez
How does a glass and iron building BURN down?
If you do a UA-cam search for ‘Crystal Palace Fire’ you can see it. It was filmed in 1936. Tez
Thank you for the info. I watched the video and read about the suspected cause. What a disaster! @@verynearlyinteresting
Very nearly too interesting. Great video.
Thank you very much. Tez 😊
All of those exhibits amazing really exciting except for that boring machine 😏😏
Good one Jim 😆
Wow that was interesting a lot of familiar names there some still around today
Hi Denise 😊
Hi Tez
Thanks for a very interesting post.
How many of those exhibits could be produced entirely in the UK today?
Thanks to wars corrupt politicians and without an empire to exploit Britain is reduced to a broken polluted backwater off the coast of Europe.
What could Britannia, who once ruled the waves, exhibit today as it slowly sinks beneath them?
Very nearly very interesting. 👍👍
How did a glass and iron building manage to burn down?
Very easily, sadly. If you search ‘Crystal Palace Fire’ on UA-cam you’ll find footage of it. Tez
Fascinating. No special slavery implements then ? Maybe the empire wasnt built on slavery after all.
Very interseting photos, reminds you that we have come a long way despite so many people trying to impede progress
Dinosaur fossils discovery.
Amazing! All these impressive, innovative ideas in 1851 yet the Brits still haven't figured out dentistry.
🤣 Can’t argue with that
Why do you yell ?
It's called enthusiasm!
Tez puts energy and enthusiasm into his storytelling.. Yelling is something else.. 🙂
