Amazing this is from 1900. I was born in 1968, but my paternal grandparents had our Dad very late in life….in 1940. My grandfather was born in 1900, and my grandmother in 1895! Hard to believe my grandmother was 5 when this was made. I never knew my grandfather,he died before I was born, and my grandmother died when I was six. Thank you for sharing these videos…….I don’t have any memories of them, so this is like watching what was going on in their world.
Well done on this rare footage. A few quick observations that stand out. This was obviously a very labor-intensive salvage operation. Lots of hard work. Noting the guy smoking on the job at 1:35. And of course you gotta show the boss supervising. The homburg hat and gold watch chain may have gone out of style, but the bosses are still with us. Somethings never change.
Imagine a very large vehicle tips over outside your house, you call the police, and they send a construction crew to start digging holes in the ground.
Doubt that. No one is interested in correctly archiving things. So you have many problems about: what media type will last hundreds of years? What file format do you use? Is any of that stuff so heavily patented that no one can decipher your files in 120 years? Paper and Cellophane will last the time. My .mkv files from my family definitely won't because there is no such thing as "indefinite storage".
@@ferrari2k There are bots collecting every image that can be found on the internet to train AI models with, so anything that are on the internet long enough will eventually be found in large image and data collections. Storage also becomes better with time, eventually we will be able to store everything in a permanent way. Some things are bound to be lost though, especially from the early internet, but I do think that there will be a treasure trove of data for people in the future. (and don't forget about the massive amount of data that big corporations collect on us, they will probably be able to exploit that to make money, selling history in the future).
Even if we are still here in a hundred-twenty years, the sheer damage by governments and people withholding and incorrectly recording and cataloging the world for the sake of protecting the feelings of the weak and pathetic is at this point irreparable.
At 0:26 The guy banging his head on the Traction Engine wheel. Funny! I can only imagine what he said: "Jeez! My fu*king bonce". "That hurt". "It's just my luck they invent moving pictures and I'm being filmed". "I just bet in 120 years time, there will be people laughing at me on some yet to be invented media outlet".
Little did they know that it would be captured on film 122 years later they must have thought when it happened that it would have been lost to time forever not have someone watching it all these years later on a computer screen.

@@k.umquat8604 Are you sure? How can you tell? These men seem to be having quite a hard time chipping at it with their pickaxes. I'm no expert in roads, but that seems to me like it's way too hard to be just dirt. Maybe it's not asphalt, but some other kind of pavement.
What Barry said, or some variation. It looks like it slid off the roadway as it came off a small bridge, not accounting for the camber on the road where the bridge was flat.
Yeah, you can always tell who has money and owns property, and who doesn't, by the clothes he wears and whether for a few seconds he's digging a hole or watching something happen. Once you know how to do that, you can go around painting everyone in the whole world into this or that convenient little box of prejudice. You'll be able to pit people against one another in endless conflict. Hooray!
Well, someone has to buy the equipment, the infrastructure, the tools, and pay the wages. You have no idea what the owners and investors had to do to get where they are either. They may have worked like dogs too. Your statement reveals a general lack of understanding of the real world and what it takes to prosper.
@@GradyPhilpott Does it though? Because that is a remarkably timeless scene... the rich man surrounded by sycophants standing around while the workers sweat. Who exactly does the working and who exactly does the prospering? Your statement shows you have spent way too little of your life on a construction site and know little of which you speak regarding human nature throughout history. Be careful chastising strangers, you might just reveal your ignorance to the world...
Haha I was thinking, as usual the RICH men in SUPER EXPENSIVE CUSTOM MADE Suits strutting their wealth....that also OWN & CONTROL the Country. 🤨 Grear piece of footage always live your uploads. 👍
@@BeingFireRetardant My good man, I have spent the majority of my adulthood working manual labor jobs, including construction and heavy equipment operating. I have worked in warehouses and in a potash mine, all in an effort to earn my university degrees, which due to catastrophic circumstances took me more than twenty years to complete. This does not include my service in the United State Marine Corps as an artilleryman on 155mm howitzers and 4.2" mortars in Vietnam, during which time I was severely wounded. I would also note that my comments refer to a video of men working around the turn of the 20th Century, a time which society was structured much differently than it is now. But, if you are inferring that I have no experience at the lower rung of society, you are sadly mistaken, as I worked at minimum wage jobs through most of the years that I struggled to earn my education and owned next to nothing except the clothes on my back and the shoes on my feet.
I’m so sorry gents. We took your generation’s gifts of hard work, ingenuity, creativity, foward thinking and hopes of advancing future comfort… and within 2 generations, we turned it into slothful ignorance, physical laziness, self-entitlement, instant gratification, backwards ideology and planned obsolescence.🥺💔😔
100 years ago when this was happening in Norfolk County, England during the "bright" and "heroic" times of America, my family was in Norfolk, VA literally locking a gay family member in an out building because he was gay. A pretty dark time in actual America (probably England too) if you ask me. You couldn't be what you actually were or someone (family included) could just lock you away, basically make you disappear, and nobody could do anything about it. Just say you were mentally ill, all because you didn't fit their idea of "normal". How about you let people decide who they are on their own? It literally has nothing to do with you so I don't see why you are complaining.

That was brilliant. Someone’s already commented on this; at the end, the chap that smiles into the camera made me smile too.
Cheesin’ for the camera…even then. Fantastic footage
Now thats one hell of a team work right there. i cant help but shed a tear watcing all these restored videos. thank you for doing this.

That is a Burrel Showman's Traction Engine and would have weighed several tons. Sterling work by those men to get upright.
It looks ENORMOUS
And heavy!
Imagine the guy filming was like this gonna be on TH-cam
That smiling guy was looking at us ahead of time.
Not a steam roller! It's a fairground traction engine. Built by Burrells of Thetford.
Yes, Thank you!
Thank you Andrew... where was this filmed? England?
It was a model X for sure.
Someone identified the engine as Edward VII, built end 1901 early 1902. It came to grief on a bridge in Norfolk, County where it was built.
