- Hello, this is DGSpitzer!
I used a series of AI to restore a video from 90 years ago!
This short documentary with sounds was published on 10/4/1929, probably filmed around 1927-1929.
Hope you enjoy it!
The footage is provided by University of South Carolina's Moving Image Research Collections, thanks MIRC for their support!
Special thanks to the new AI project 'DeepRemaster', created by Satoshi Lizuka & Edgar Simo-Serra. I used their technology for the musicians' band part~
Addtionally used DAIN, DeOldify, and Topaz for restoration.
And also thanks to CCTV~
Here is the detail information about the footage:
Fox News outtake 4-786 copyright University of South Carolina.

The beautiful thing about the video is that it's about normal people. Going about their lives. Just wondetful.
Not much longer a year after Japanese invade, probably got their head cut off for sport
T Jack yes...
Yeah it’s sad and 20 years later you have a certain Mao who break you’re culture and history. And force you to buy his book and to follow him like a sheep.
@@JKMT no one cares they did the same to vietnamese over 4000 years
@@lucifer5379 um how do u know that
The most incredible thing to me... Is how relatable that conversation that boy had with the barber to this day. Thinking about it, I know it's silly. But when you look at mere photos, everyone looked so serious and distant. Seeing these films remind me that these people had their joys and humanity. They aren't just caricatures. Not just the posed smiles for the camera, or victims of the horrors of famine and war. We are still the same.
It's crazy to think the fact that everyone in this video was dead but videos captured their existence.
maybe not, the kids could be still alive
Not all of them
you are overthinking
Same 90 years later will remember tiktokers
It's crazy to think the fact that the sun is bright and water is wet
3:14 Hey that's "小燕子，穿花衣，年年春天来这里“! It's surreal how our childhood songs were actually played by random street musicians from almost 100 years ago.
嗨，你还别说，还真是。
My great-grandmother was only 8 years old when this video was recorded, and she's gonna be 100 years old next year. Life changed so much!

Very interesting film. I thought it was filmed recently because the quality is great.
Amazing. I bet the guy getting his haircut had no idea he would be making people smile all over the world 100 years later with his charisma and humor. The friendly nature you can see with Chinese society when the kids are eating and the guy is chatting to the barber is amazing and still present today.
This accent is exactly the same as the current Beijing accent.....All of pronunciation are same...incredible
Because it's Beijing. It's not like a language changes every hundred years..
Senpai Ah yes because American English hasn’t changed at all since 1920? And I’m sure the ways the Japanese Emperors of 1910 spoke can definitely be understood today? He didn’t mean Chinese as a language changed in any fundamental way, but that the accent hasn’t, which usually doesn’t happen in 90 years.
@@karimm2 If you watch American black and white films, you'll notice people spoke English differently
I saw a guy looking looking at his tablet!
@@LoveOwenCris yes, Beijing accent is hard to understand. My colleague in China, it was unusual accent, when I worked in Changchun
I love the era when the type of dress u wear is identified with the country you came from. Before the jeans, short shorts, and sneakers became the norm of all people.
It's a really good look -- the way they dressed back then. Very classy.
I wish it was still like that lel
Yeah well, I wouldn't want to wear the same type of traditional clothing everyday of my life. Globalism is not a bad thing. I now have the FREEDOM and options to wear whatever I like, even traditional clothing if I want.
Marian Rodu Globalism is obviously not a bad thing, especially if one of it’s supposed major side effects is something like boring clothing. I think the problem is with trends probably. I’d assume if lots of people started wearing traditional clothes from their countries other people would likely jump in and start doing it too. I think it has more to do with this than globalization and freedom, though those are also obviously contributing factors. The problem is that you stand out too much from the crowd and will probably get weird stares if you wore traditional clothing in a crowd of people wearing modern clothes, and vice versa
Chinese style dress was destroyed by manchurian in 1644. the clothes after then are manchurian style
Wow, this is so awesome! Even their dialog is more or less the same as what a customer and a barber would talk about today. The more of these old videos I watch, it really goes to show me that fundamentally, people haven't changed at all. We have new technology, but at the end of the day humans are mostly concerned about their family, friends, their work, having fun, etc, etc.
I think reading about history in textbooks gives us a very distorted view of history. Once you can see and hear people interacting 100 years ago it's kinda like oh okay, they're pretty much exactly the same as we are today!
I was born and raised up in Beijing now in Canada for 7 years, I love it! I can understand what their talking, that’s AMAZING! Also it’s possible the baby in 3:38 still alives just more than 90 years old, it’s possible. GOD bless...

Those small children would have been peers of my grandmother. She would have been a similar age to them (born in 1923), and is still alive today in 2020 (aged 97).
Please explain.
Bathe and relax in my shit what is there to explain? I’m confused. Please explain.
@Charles Huang the title of the video literally says it was filmed in 1929...
My grandmother was born in 1922 and she is still alive today as well!
@@1412Bunny LOL many just won't even bother to read the title!
The genuine smile on the young guy face tells us he was really satisfied with the haircut.
_ding hao_ _ding_ is from _wu-ding_ (roof) & _hao_ means *good* - so he's excited for the moment . . . wait util his friends start smacking his head for fun
Thanks for restoring the movie. I like the last boy. He's dynamic and lovely. I can see sunshine in his eyes across a century.
He looks completely different without hair.

4:48 is that an American sayin "Tell him to keep talking?"
Heard that. Sounds like someone from long island, ny
@@syamsul6063 Yeah I replayed it so many times thinkin if I'm trippin but man even the accent sounds like a really modern long island accent.
@@TheArtofBoxing101 that accent is really from long island. I guess the guy who recorded the film must be an American from NY.
you know what, a regular Long Island guy would say exactly raise his a bit his voice,"Tell 'em to keep tooowlkin'!"
and the guy said to the barber "do it faster"
My grandmother was 2 years old at that time. It's amazing seeing this time! Keep doing it. Your work is priceless!
The ordinary people back then were so genuine and sincere. I can see the kindness and purity in their eyes.
People of today are still genuine, sincere, and kind if they are not tormented by war, hunger, bad government, or greedy banks. I have had luck. When I asked for help from complete strangers, they offered it. I had been asked for help from complete strangers, and I offered it.
It is still like that today. Chinese people are so friendly.
Who would have known on-call barber becomes a thing again 90 years later.

This is the most realistic colorized video I have ever seen, thank you for sharing!
Queen Elizabeth II was 3 years old when this video was shot and she is still alive
Who?
So she's part of the reason other countries were colonised and have shit laws stuck to them?
@@RonLarhz Shit laws? You serious? We can have better integrated culture and living in modern civilized society with rules of law just because of British colonization in Asia, if the colonization never happen, we will having hard time to communicate and exchange with the world, I don't understand your statement of "shit laws", it sounds really hypocritic.
@@siongtzer Defend the aggressor, you are perfectly colonized.
@@siongtzer i agree with you!!
Gan siong tzer colonization isn’t the only way to make the world a better place, but it is indeed the most barbaric and cruel approach.
If that little boy in 1929 lived to be in his 90s would have seen amazing times.
yogibearstie my father’s grandma was born in 1912. Now she is 108 years old, healthy,sometimes drinking. She was doing some cloth business in Wuhan during 1920s, and she said this video isn’t surprising.
Even looking back, it is hard to grasp how much the world have changed since then. Remember: in 1929, Fleming had just discovered the penicillin, ushering the age of antibiotics and allowing humanity to, in a matter of years, being able to easily cure deadly contagious diseases that plagued us for millennia. The DNA would be identified properly decades later (let alone easily edited, which only happened almost a century later). And they still didn't have FM radio, jet engines, microwaves, radars, and even the ubiquitous ballpoint pens. Of course I won't even start talking about computers as the basics of transistors were still being figured out...
I know exactly what you mean and feel. 👍
@@markli439 really? It will be great to look at her, very interesting to hear story from the past. could you make a video?
@@markli439 please make a video about her...i'm begging. Really want to see her react about this video
@S. Young I believe he was talking exactly about that. _If_ he lived to *_his 90s_* he would have seen amazing times (compared to what we was living at that time). Because he would be living in the 2000s, which is so different from those times. I don't believe the comment was about those times being great times... Quite the opposite actually.

Edit: Yay! English subs!
That's very true. He seemed to really enjoy his new haircut
He is also kind, he tried to pay more because the barber makes less money, ancient rich kid.
and surprisingly with very nice set of teeth and smile
So adorable ❤️
He said"剃挺好，挺好"，it means "It's a good shave, quite good." He said that he would pay more if the new haircut is good, he was kind.
The current oldest person alive is 113 meaning every person under 23 is dead. Honestly most over 10 would be.

Not necessarily
@@Omariau yeah, it will probably look way older. The tech we know today have been improving exponentially.

There were some old people lived until 2000s from that era, It is crazy how their lives changed so much
Young people right now won't experience the same when they get old
You don't know what new technology will be invented this century, maybe something that will change the way we live now
Cracking restoration job. I think the bloke on percussion was playing a different tune to the other band members. That barber's blade looked a bit sharp.
The only TH-cam video series that I'm not watching in x2 speed.
一天剃头挣2块钱，一月60。还真不错，鲁迅先生在北京的时候，一个小学校长。或者派出所长的工资也就这么多，所以剃头师傅可以养活一家10口人呢。
It’s so weird to see how far we’ve came. And it’s also sad that everyone in this video lived out their lives, had memories, stories, and loved ones. For all I know, I could be linked to some of them in any way

In 1929 Peking is not the capital.
You r right, the capital is Nanjing in 1929
也是，Peking ismean北平
In 1929, Peking is a duck.

It’s amazing, I can watch it over and over. Definitely like “going back in time”
I can understand what they are saying.
The dialect is a little different from modern Chinese :)
Maybe that's because of the beijing accent
I believe accents change slightly over periods of time in almost every country. When I watch American movies from the 1940's and 50's they actually sound/talk a little differently compared to Americans today.
@@rsuriyop Like, totally! Lol.
