My father's cousin disappeared while on a reconnaissance patrol of Aachen in November 1944. He was never found.
Most of them young lads would have ended up on the somme
Amazing footage and processing! Pretty crazy that you can get so much detail out of 80 year old film stock.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Where are all the takeaways and Turkish barbers?
Look how modest and beautifully women were dressed back then. Nowadays we see women with bit of modesty and we shout go back to your country.
No processed food and people walked everywhere - and not an overweight person anywhere to be seen. Must be a complete coincidence!
Look at how well dressed so many people were shows how Bradford was such a wealthy city back then and in fact was until the early 60's then the decline started. I think Im right in saying that in 1947 there were more owners of Rolls Royce cars in both Bradford and Huddersfield than in the whole of London.
How are they not boiling with collars so high and tight?
It's Northern England. Boiling is an alien concept. :D
Literally everyone wore a hat in those days! Great footage. Thanks!!!
Their fascination with the camera and today everyone has a film making device in their pockets. I love that era.
If they could see it now they’d marvel about the lack of horse shit in the street,.
two things stood out: no plastic. shopping bags, grocery and food containers, all cloth or paper. Also: nearly everyone is over-weight. New York has been very fitness-minded for a few decades now, but by the looks of the population - at least here on the LES - it looks like this neighborhood was all about work and getting home to eat. No one looks very happy btw.
I heard the original title was 'Panting Philip".
Wish the clock went back than now
Great video! Entirely wrong music!
Only whites.
Lived in Bradford most of my life and always resented how everyone says it was a shithole, but looking how it used to be ...it IS a shithole now. Very obviously an important place then.
No traffic lights - not even a policemen! I bet crossing the road was an adrenaline rush for most people.
Oh No! Not the pie! FINALLY! A use for AI that is not creepy!
At 2:20, I believe the elderly woman is wearing men’s shoes. They are 2x the size of her feet.
Wow! Love it!😊
Those trams were such cool steampunk-esque contraptions. Can you imagine what a thrill it must have been just to travel into town back then? Nowadays people avoid the town centers because they're dreary & depressing

Shame about the music. It just needs hooves on cobbles & metal on rails.
Sheffield born and bred ‘ere. Thank you for this. It’s incredible to think that my maternal Great Grandparents and great-great grandparents might be on this video as they both hailed from the bottom end of Ecclesall Road area. Can you imagine what they would have thought if they’d have been told that 122 years later their great grandson / great-great grandson was watching moving pictures of them on his telephone that worked via satellites in space?
A once beautiful city. How times change
Still have horse's and carts going about Bradford.
Both my great grandparents were born that year, lived through two world wars, and both lived right into their 90s so i was a late teen when they both passed in the mid 1980s, but now i am older i understand who lucky i was to know and remember them, andcto think they were born is this time period is amazing. Great work.
The music is accurate 🤔
Yup, authentic Liquid Drum & Bass 1898 stylee! Vicky was a huge fan. It inspired Albert to pierce his dingaling lol The music was chosen to aid in bringing the film, and the people in it, in to the 21st Century. :)
@@livinghistoryaienhanced The music was a bad choice. Your audience will assume the title means that there will be the recreation of the diegetic sounds that would be captured if audio of the scene was recorded at the same time as the film was. Tbh I presumed the shit music was just a last-ditch attempt to replace unlicensed audio.
Pity AI couldn't add sound and not that shit music
Usually if I see "AI" in the title, I don't even bother to click. It's especially bad at video and photo restoration. It's just so bad at things it is not familiar with, and this scene is no exception, although it's better than many. The figures are well rendered. The colour restoration is my favourite part of your videos.
Generally the restoration quality relies a lot on the original source material quality, photo and film. There is a lot of junk out there AI upscaling and colouring. The original material for this film was pretty poor. I also worked on this clip last autumn, the tech has moved on a long way since then. Check out my other channel for more recent work - www.youtube.com/@livingedgeai Keep an eye on that channel for some phenomenal restoration and colourisation. And you can find upscaled photos and even more video work on the Facebook Page - facebook.com/profile.php?id=100091889587322
@@livinghistoryaienhanced "Generally the restoration quality relies a lot on the original source material quality, photo and film." I suspected as much. Did you digitise the original from film? What's the best resolution you can can scan of film this old? I've subscribed to that channel now. Incredible work. Almost unsettlingly good. Are there any tools that you would recommend for colourising old photographs beyond Photoshop?
Equivalent to people from the year 2150 looking back on us in 2024... imagine what the world will be like in the mid-22nd century.
Hunter gathering is at the end of the current trajectory it seems :)
I suspect that the gap will not be as great. The technological curve has been almost vertical since this film was recorded. That will not continue forever.
@@livinghistoryaienhanced There are too many rich, powerful people who enjoy their current lives to allow that to happen. Electing Trump would definitely make your prediction more likely though. 😢
@@Martial-Mat It looks like the AI will see it continue and accelerate. For example, film companies are forming now that will rely almost exclusively on AI and they will compete with and better Hollywood. More imaginative storylines, better visuals, deeper character development, unusual cinematography, faster production, new distribution methods etc. we will see a whole knew cinematic language develop. AI music software is incredible with some pro mastering after production, also AI driven, it is indistinguishable from traditionally produced tracks and great work can be achieved and ideas tested at incredible speed. Last Friday, I took a Bowie track, removed the vocals, dropped the backing track in to the AI and gave it the track Lyrics. It sang the vocals in a Bowie like voice, I didn't intend that, and changed the vocal melody and word emphasis to come up with a remix of a totally unique variety. I don't know of any cover version or remix of any song that has changed the vocals in such a way. We are entering a very creative period, perhaps the greatest this world has ever seen and it will be AI driven. We are accelerating. :)
@@Martial-Mat The parasite class are already preparing their underground palaces as we head towards the simulation reset. We are heading for a whole other kind of change.
Wow!
You can't jaywalk like that any more!!
Keep the 4K but lose the colour.
Too late 😁
How many "shots" is this made from? Is it originally "moving" pictures? Thanks.

I love these. Almost everybody is wearing a hat! I feel a strange sort of affinity with these people for some reason. Perhaps it's because every single one of them is long gone.
