Interesting fact about Operation Babylift: some of the babies weren't orphaned at all. Their parents put them on the planes so they wouldn't be caught in the war and traumatized or killed, but intended on leaving Vietnam themselves and reuniting with their children in America (some of these said kids were already in the orphanages because their parents couldn't feed them properly, but they still went back and visited them regularly). The kids flown from there were adopted out to awaiting families, but without their birth parents permission or knowledge. One judge even threw out the class action lawsuit, and declared them all to be separate cases, and told the attorneys working in the cases that they couldn't contact the birth families and tell them where their children were. And out of all of those kids, only 12 were eventually reunited with their biological families, and that's after years of custody battles with the adoptive parents. And the birth parents had to find their kids on their own if they wanted to reunite with them, and there was barely any (if any at all) paperwork to help them. So some never found their kids, and most of the kids never found their biological families when they started looking later in life. It's sad if you really think about it.
I find it extraordinary that this video is explaining to viewers that Winnie the Pooh actually had a life before Walt Disney. Right across the rest of the World, even in places where children are not taught English, the four "Christopher Robin books" are among the best-loved and most renowned works of children's literature. If you have never read these books, or had them read to you; if you are one of those people who only know "Winnie the Pooh" from the Walt Disney versions, then you have missed out on a very important part of life, something that unites people across the globe. Yes there was a boy called Christopher Robin, a teddy bear called Pooh, a little toy called Piglet and a toy donkey called Eeyore. Christopher's father, the playwright and novelist A.A. Milne wrote a series of stories for his son, back in the 1920s. When you find these books and look at the charming illustrations, do not assume that the little character with bobbed hair and a checked smock over his trousers is a girl. His clothes are typical of boy's wear in the 1920s.
Cindy Graham - I'm STILL trying to find out who this woman is and have been doing so for years now! Lots of people use her photo, but no one seems to know anything about her! Grrr!
The Winnie the Pooh one has more of a story behind it: While it was WW1, a Canadian soldier went to Britain and got to take his pet bear with him, 'Winniepeg', and Winniepeg soon became a great attraction and everyone loved him. Then, a little boy called Christopher Robin saw the bear and named his own little teddy bear after him. Christopher Robin's father then wrote stories about Winnie the Pooh. :)
+Alexander Gallardo the kkk memebers are bad. and the cop was just doing his job so he shouldnt be critsized for him doing his job his job is to protect us all. he could even protect a murderer. its his job. but you are acting like OMG THATS SO KIND I LUV THE KKK!.." THAT IS NOT GOOD.
Love the narrator and her calm tone of voice. Sometimes it's really difficult to hear a story over narrator's over-the-top emotions and shrieks. Not the case here! Good job.
+Damp Squid Okay, cool. So when the ship is a smashing success and everyone is paying hand over foot to look at the exact replica along with applauding his wonderful masterpiece, we'll make sure to add an extra "oh, and Australia wants absolutely nothing to do with him because they hate him". Way to go Australia.
+Daniel Snook I don't understand why are commenting this to a little child giving a suggestion to be featured in the next video. What if you commented top 10 horror movies and a kid said no too scary. Think about it
+Mi-Chanlover1 i know, and it's not me knocking female combatants, female thai kickboxing is legit. It's just that these are clearly non athletes awkwardly posed for a fetish shoot.
great video. i like therichest channel. i must point out though - photography was not in its baby stages in 1910s. the earliest photographs date back to the 1840s. photography was still relatively expensive in the 1910s but it was very well developed and popular.
I JUMPED IN FEAR ONCE. WHEN DID I GET STARTLED? Well, I was watching this video, and then BAM!!! A pop up window said my laptop was at 14% and needed to be recharged.
Winnie was actually a real bear at a zoo in Winnipeg that the author's son Christopher Robin visited and loved, and that's what brought about the winnie the pooh series as opposed to some stuffed animals.
actually, there is much more to the story of '"Winni" (short for Winnipeg) the POOH', ou should look for the movie done about the real life bear, and the persons who adopted her----very touching and insperational
My mom's friend was going to be on the baby lift one but someone can to say goodbye so she went on the second one. Thank god because I have a crush on her son.
To be honest, none of these videos "left me speechless": some are interesting, yes, but none is particularly astounding - especially because many of them refer to events of which I was already generally aware, although I may not have seen them illustrated in photos, which was, as I say, interesting. What *DID* amaze me, though, is the notion that we have become a society *SO* frighteningly ignorant that (well, according to this video's narrator, anyway?) most people are unaware of the (I thought?) *VERY* well-known facts that (a) Disney's "Winnie-the-Pooh" was heavily based upon a series of books, and also (b) that the various "Winnie-the-Pooh" books (they have different names, of course - I'm using it as a catch-all term) were inspired by A.A. Milne's real-life son, Christopher, and his real-life toys - and, indeed, were largely written for Christopher Robin. What next: are people nowadays unaware, for example, that Disney's equally popular and famous "Jungle Book" film was based upon the (actually far more famous) Jungle Books written by Rudyard Kipling? Does nobody *READ* classic literature any more? Now *THAT* level of ignorance really *IS* shocking... :(
+Nell Smith What I find shockingly ignorant is people who don't know why there are 60 seconds in a minute or 60 minutes in an hour or how the days of the week and the months of the years got their names. I mean, we use these things nearly everyday and most have no clue or interest in why or how they happened. These are just some examples of things that happened in the distant past but affect us every day. BTW, I'll bet there are quite a few who think The Wizard of Oz was just a movie and don't know it started out as a series of books. To your credit I'll assume you do.
OMG Pooh was the name the soldier's son named the bear that had been a mascot to a British company after he was placed in a zoo. The soldier was the author from Winnipeg, thus Winnie the Pooh. He 1st wrote the stories for his son Christopher. You seem so professional.
The baby thing reminded me,today after school,I saw this 3 year old walking alone and there was a dog and he got so scared of it.He ran away.My mom was looking and driving after him to make sure he was ok.Will we were looking at him, he disappeared.
"Unfortunately, the first Operation Babylift place crashed, and 78 babies and 50 adults were killed." "But more than 170 survived." AS IF THAT MAKES ME FEEL ANY BETTER
To be honest I only click on this because I thought it would be a compilation of Pepe's, and I was fully prepared to go down fighting if Pepe Wentz wasn't on the list.
damn... only in America would someone considered a "minority" race do his duty and protect someone with OBVIOUS difference in belief/faith/racial difference.
That black man is truly one of the bravest and most honorable man I've ever heard off. I couldn't have ever done that. Protecting the bigot, racist and murderous people that wanted to divid us. Even if it was my duty.
+Luke Savini-Burke A similar incident happened last year. A KKK protester suffered from a heat stroke for staying out in the sun for too long and a black police officer helped him to the ambulance.
The KKK didn't want harm to come to blacks indiscriminately, they wanted segregation back, a policy which worked in the past and worked well in South Africa which prospered when the races were segregated. Since the end of apartheid South Africa has become a dystopian nightmare and the US is rapidly heading that way too.
If they're on the Internet, surely they can't be rare anymore
i know right
no shit sherlock

That is terrible
You are 100% right. Many were children who were half Vietnamese and Half American and ripped away from their mothers
Anyone else think of that depressing episode of Hey Arnold?
Thank you for sharing. Interesting but sad
It's happened again. Children separated from their parents at the border wall. As punishment.

It didn't say "old" It says "rare" photos.
it kinda does
+McKenley Coleman I could take a picture of myself right now and set my camera to monochrome. So it kind of doesn't.
Old photos are black and white so its most likely old except somebody uses a filter.
But who is the upset long haired woman in the video that fronts the photos??

Photography was not in its infancy in 1912!! It was well established by the 1850s.
I think she means compared to now. It was still rather difficult to get multiple photos in a short amount of time

Love your content. Maybe slow down on the captions so we can read fully.
the female boxers are clearly posed, nice try lying though, girl power i guess
Actually while the men were at war women had to take place of the men so female boxers were real during the time.
+Mi-Chanlover1 i know, and it's not me knocking female combatants, female thai kickboxing is legit. It's just that these are clearly non athletes awkwardly posed for a fetish shoot.
Welp screw that shit.
they are they're from another video
True it’s a photo op
New definition of speechless there. All seen before and hardly shocking
That "female boxe" photo is totally staged.
Could you please do more things like myths about animals or like top 10 strangest animals on earth or prehistoric animals that still exist today

I JUMPED IN FEAR ONCE.
WHEN DID I GET STARTLED?
Well, I was watching this video, and then BAM!!!
A pop up window said my laptop was at 14% and needed to be recharged.
She forgot to mention that Winnie the Pooh came from Canada.
Explains why the feminists shit on it and replace Christopher Robin with a girl.
That's probably because Christopher Robin was born and raised and lived in London, England.
Somehow this strangely peaceful music makes some of these more disturbing photos easy to process.
woah the comments here are fast the time I pause the video and came back they are already new comments. keep up the good work Therichest
none of those photos left me speechless.
how are they rare if they're all over the Internet?
Everyone in this comment section proves that this video didn't leave anyone speechless.
omg, Salvador Dali took his anteater on the subway!?!?!? Well obviously it's a service animal lol
Her voice is so soothing.
Winnie was actually a real bear at a zoo in Winnipeg that the author's son Christopher Robin visited and loved, and that's what brought about the winnie the pooh series as opposed to some stuffed animals.

I saw a scene from Hey Arnold that actually showed the man that gave up his daughter during the Vietnam War

Oh okay.
I thought this would just be a Pepe compilation.
You can’t say “unfortunately, and thankfully” to start a sentence. Is it unfortunate, or thankful?
