- Weird History presents Timeline 1999 - We are taking you back to the last year of the 90s. 1999 would end the decade, and the 20th Century, on a cliffhanger with the dreaded Y2K. The year '99 would feature infamous moments like Bill Clinton's impeachment trial and Columbine, but also, iconic ones like the release of "Livin' La Vida Loca" and "The Matrix" going to the big screen. Take a trip back to 1999 with Weird History.
What was your favorite 90s memory?
Should do the 00’s before the 70’s
Far too many to name. The music, the games, the movies, the cartoons, it was an amazing decade to be a kid and become a teen. While also recognizing the darkness of the world as the innocence faded. Oklahoma City, Columbine...
@@tenright2520 He owns the channel. He should do what he wants.
When Mount Pinatubo erupted on June 15, 1991.
Your viewers probably wouldn’t know about that though. You went with Micheal Bolton.
You forgot to mention Michael Abrams, who tried to kill George Harrison at his residence of Friar Park on December 30, 1999.
You guys at Weird History deserve giant props for not shoving this masterpiece full of ads. Thank you.
For real some videos have too freaking many!!!
Well that didn’t last long, did it?
"This episode brought to you by GEEK BOX." So tired of channels that are just a guy talking about movies or video games whining about how much it costs to make videos then begging for cash.
@@r.i.pyoutube6881 I didn't get hit with a single one.
Dude just get TH-cam red
I miss the 90's. My mom was still healthy and alive, my dad still loved her, I still had my grandparents. It was an amazing time and I didn't even realize how amazing, until it was too late.
You truly do take things for granted, as a child. May God have mercy on our souls, for the rest of 2021, and well into 2022.
Wait ur mom is dead? Hold your horses ur mother is unalived Holy Crap
90s*
same!!! My parents are also dead :( and one of my grandmas
Yes....all this.💯
I hope you're doing okay, especially in a such a mentally and socially trying time. Please be careful, soft and loving with yourself. Don't give up and honor your mother and live your life the best you know and can. For her, but most of all, for yourself. You deserve to be happy ❤️
There is no series that I look forward to anywhere near as much as I do this one. You guys got mad skills.
Hellz Yeah!
I agree....I laugh, I cry, I can frickin' smell the 90s. Its magical
Yeah same. the Other videos are decent but these are the best.
Agreed!
Reliving the war wrestling bios but yea this is up their also!!!
Due to the amount of iconic culture moments 1999 had, I must say that 1999 was probably the peak of humanity as a whole.
the whole late 90s and 2000 included is probably when we peaked
@@arthurvice503 Yeah what a superficial way to set the bar. “Me lika da 90s so me says it da best”.
I remember 1999 kinda fondly but things change 😃
The movie “The Matrix” thought it was.
Late 60's/early 70's was more the peak.
People were way more real , and movements weather It was music , sexual orientation , fashion , personality were all more genuine because we didn't have a cheat sheet of being connected through the Internet and easily being able to mimic and follow what everyone else does. Life still had genuine discovery and equally respectful , creative , and divided scenes , basically everyone did their own thing and couldn't fake It like most do now just to fit In. People are more self conscious because with technology there's nothing left to wonder about at all , and people habitually compare themselves to everyone else. Humans have a natural desire for companionship , and seeing what we can't be like or want to have only depresses us more or makes us hide behind what we think the world wants to see. I believe the entire 80's to the early 90's were the peak of American life , entertainment wise.
This did not disappoint and I’m so happy you’re doing the 70s next so I can see the rise (and fall) of disco
and rise again with ABBAs new album ;D
ok Gen X'er
Disco is back babeeeeeee!
awww i wanted the 2000s then the 2010s then the 1970s
@@cdur5091 got a problem? Respext your elders ya spook.
Y2K is still the most memorable New Years
Nothing else like thinking the world is gonna end when the countdown finishes!
Remember things that said y2k compatible.
I spent it at Times Square.....lol.
I was thinking, if chaos is coming, might as well be at the center of it.
In a way it did.
Viking Song you aint lyin
lol I was in a k-hole in ny with a girl I just met. Y2K was wild. We all just said fuck it that year.
This video just proves 1999 was the most important year in our recent history hands down. The impact of everything shown has been everlasting, and the events of that year foretold the things we are going to be seeing in the decades to come as which we have.
It doesn’t prove that
1999, 2001,2008,2020
I can't wait for the 2000s series!!! Born 1989 and this 90s series was so awesome
Graduated 5th grade and entered into 6th grade that year! Epic times!! The culture in America was booming!! It was awesome to be an early teen!! So thankful to be a 90s kid for so many reasons!!
same her 99 was my 6 the grade year also
I was 19 years old in ‘99 n it was STILL by far the BEST YEAR of my life.
The late 90’s - early 00’s were absolutely phenomenal time in America.
As the country goes into terminal decline I hold these memories tight n long for a rekindling.
Lmao ok Doomer Boomer
@@skywishr1313 Pipe down generation y-milenial-muskoomer
@@skywishr1313 They're actually Generation Y, not Boomers. Might wanna start educating yourself before opening your cockpocket.
I was 16-17 in 99. It was the best year of my life as well. Mardi Gras in New Orleans set a record that hasn't been broken since, and I was there.
One night at the Holiday Inn on Loyola had to be booked 6 months in advance and cost $347. Just 1 night. The other 2 nights, we just slept in my van. lol
It was also the year I met the love of my life.
I try to make every year the best year of my life.
I remember freaking out about Y2K as a nine year old. My mom got sick of it so much she contacted my uncle who was a computer programmer for the Department of Defense to send me an official letter telling me that nothing was going to happen because the US government had been fixing the problem since 1997.
😂😂😂😂
My dad worked on the Y2K project for the DOD as well. He said it was nothing, just the internal computer clock would become 00:00:00:00:00.
Did covid freak you out too lol
Just wait until 2037 hahahah
🤣🤣 At least your mom went through that effort. My mom just told me to sit the hell down.
The 90’s is when the internet really came of age. And the world was never the same again. I think everyone who grew up in the 90’s and early 00,s knows the sound of a 56k modem.
I'm sure the parents who had to buy those things know the sound as well.
Yep, the carrier tone negation sound... Born in 1968...I can remember my first 300 baud external modem.
The internet mattered most of all in the early 00s. In the 90s, people still went out and bought their albums.
@@chrisrj9871 Internet matters most of all now, and will be even more critical in the future. The OP is referring to when it came of age.
I was born in 99’ so I have no f*cking clue what that is 😂
This entire 90’s series was great. So many memories and cool/interesting things I never knew.
To be a child between 1997 and 2001 was very powerful. EVERYTHING was marketed to us. I was born in 1995, and I remember life in 1999 and 2000 was like a 24/7 Cartoon Network commercial break. If you were a kid in those days...you know this is true!
I'm same age as you but I don't remember anything from the 90s which is sad
*Born in 1994, and can confirm…*
Probably because you were 5 years old. 5 year olds today would probably think the same
Born 82. Genuinely think it was the best year ever to be born
Born 1993, and yeah, it's true
I was 15 in 1999. This brought back so many memories (not all of them good, obviously). I remember being skeptical about the whole Y2K hysteria. Most people I knew didn't take it very seriously. One of my neighbors pranked his family by sneaking outside at midnight to shut off the electricity.
This is the first year I really started making memories lol. I turned 7. Everything before this is a blur. We got our first computer with AOL dialup internet, my mom got a cell phone, and the next year we’d have a DVD player. We were a real modern family 😂
You're still Spring Chicken... I was born in 1976... ☹️
@@harunmusa1164 Why so sad. You were a teen through the 90s. Great decade to experience. Not everyone will be able to say. I was a kid the last decade of the 20th century and the transition from a millennium to the next.
Around 7/8 (1994) is when I started remembering what was happening in the videos too
I was born in 91 and I think we did all of this around this time too 😂😂😂 when we got the DVD player in 2000 we thought we were really in the future 😂😂
@@notsureiL Thanks 😊👍
I absolutely love this series and I'm so looking forward to the 70s. The decade I grew up in!
1999 had some super iconic and influential moments, probably more than any year in living memory
1999 is one of the coolest sounding years in history

Watching a film in the 90s was something I think we appreciated more than we do now because it wasn’t just a button press away.
I think the planning that went into seeing a film, whether renting, going to a cinema, or recording one off tv built anticipation.
If there was a decent film on tv, or even a bad one, you’d all be talking about it the next day in school
Yeah it made you actually get off your butt and physically do something instead of just pressing a button all night long
it used to be quite a lot more effort :)
I miss going to rent a movie from my local video store and being overwhelmed by the choice but finding hidden gems
I was watching that WWF pay-per-view live when Owen died. It was awful, and of all the wrestling deaths that’ve transpired over the last thirty or forty years, that one’s stuck with me the most. I still have a tough time whenever it’s brought up. That being said, thank you for including it in your retrospective. It’s the first time I’ve seen it mentioned outside of wrestling docs.
Agreed. As I commented he wasnt wrestling the Undertaker though, it was the Godfather for the IC title. Im 41 now and its sad how many wrestlers have met their demise much earlier then they should have in the past several years.
@@vliegpaul yeah, the Undertaker bit didn’t sit right with me because there’s no way those two were working each other at that time. But not everybody is a hardcore wrestling fan so I overlooked it.
Everyone thought it was a kayfabe. It just didn’t seem real that Owen had fallen. Raw is Owen is when reality set in that he was really dead. The thing that pissed me off and a lot of people around me at the time was that McMahon continued with the PPV as if nothing happened.
I remember the Gov Jesse Ventura saying something about the show still carrying on and the fans still cheering at the wrestling matches that same night Owen _died,_ and how it made them seem like wolves... it should be online somewhere.
@@chrisrj9871 The audience was not informed of his death until after the PPV. They actually didn’t know he had died.
1999 already!?
I remember the 80’s like it was yesterday…
I was born in 89, but it still feels like the 90's were only 10 years ago. Lots of good times.
Me too! 90s seem still recent sorta .....miss the 80s ! Best decade for pop culture!
lucky you. To me it's like the 90s were just a few years ago... but then i realized i haven't been really happy or carefree in a LOOONG time so that means the 90s are actually a very distant memory of the past...
These videos are so good.
Thanks a lot Weird History. Born in 1991 and these videos, specifically from the mid to late 90s really put me in my feels and gave me some good memories! 😭😭😭 Fantastic series!
I graduated from High School in 1999. It was such a time of positivity. I was also able to travel to Europe during the transition to the Euro and our credit cards transactions were in euro but the ‘cash’ transactions were still in the local currency - it was so interesting to see the change happening.
I graduated uni that year and also recall that happening. It was interesting seeing prices in Francs, Lyra, but also in Euros.
I miss the zeitgeist of the 90s, 1999 was such an amazing year.
I was 13. Born and raised in south America. Came to Us in August 1999 Life was amazing. I loved that year so much.
I've lived through 4&1/4 full decades almost exactly! The 90's has to be the one that I miss the most! Thanks for the nostalgia flashbacks "WEIRD HISTORY"!!! I Love this channel!!
It's a sad day indeed when you have to say goodbye to the 90's for the second time in your life. It was a decade in which I started as a child and ended as an adult. I knew that I was officially an adult because 99 was the first year that I disliked the current pop culture and used phrases like, "Back in my day" -- And as the fires burned at Woodstock I soldiered into adult life with an old man grimace on my disapproving face. Now, in 2021, hello midlife crisis. Ahh, the joys of life 😐
I was born in 94 so I didn't know anything abt the world, but were u one of the ppl who believed y2k was gonna be a problem
I'm there with you buddy, hang on it will get better, you could not be more precise in saying goodbye to the '90s is sad but rejoice that you can say "I was there" or "I remember that" just like me and many people over 40 or very close to 40 that can remember, midlife crisis, gray hair and grumpiness bring it on, you have no power here!
1999 is when pop culture turned from Gen X to millenial-focused so that might be why
.🤔😑🖕.
@@dundee6402*1997.
The Matrix, American Beauty, The Fight Club, what an amazing year for movies
Sega Dreamcast then playstation 2 came out then it was a wrap
@@forrestharper609that was 1998
1999 was an extremely good year for film.
I remember seeing the cult classic of Office Space even in the theater! LOL
Dont forget Austin Powers The Spy Who Shagged Me 😂
I miss them. 96' was the best year I've had in all my 42 years.
99 was better
One of mine too!
It all feels surreal looking back on it now. So many things I wish I could do over again. We had no idea that we were living in such a special time in history
2pac was killed in 96 so that's a no
I'm your age and I had a pretty weird '96 but culturally I think it was cool
This series has been amazing and honestly I can't wait to watch. I just wish your next series was the 2000's. I really wish to know what happened the decade I was born.
god the theme song on this series is such a jam. keep boppin through time you wonderful historians.
My God. You put so much of your heart into this series. This decade clearly means a lot to you.
Born in 88 so really enjoyed all the 90's, reliving my childhood. But although from the UK, I remember so much from this in the news, tv, etc. So many feels. Thanks peeps! Keep up the good work, many more years prior and after to treat us to.
What happened in 2020?
Everyone: let's not talk about it. Next question.
There's a timeline for that
he already made that video
The better question would be "what *didn't* happen?"
2020, 2021 - nothing happened. It's not worth speaking about ever again.
i am totally just waiting for the moment when we all wake up and be like "Oh god this whole last season... uh.. decade was just a dream."
Waited so long for the 70s Timeline series and knowing that it's next thrills me to no end. Wonderful Series so far!
I was born in 1980 so this whole series has been PERFECT for me…. In like one of the only times it’s perfect to be old! Imma def watch the 70s too and then I’ll feel like you yung’ins’!
1999 was a good year for me. It was also a turning point, the end of "youth." I had turned 30, and I could start to feel my body settling down a bit. Mainly , in the lower back. 33 years later , my body's in not too bad shape. Life has always been a struggle, good times, struggling times. I hope to read this post if I make it to 83.
Hopefully TH-cam will still be around.
I'm going to be 30 years old in August this year...
@@quanbrooklynkid7776 happy birthday!
Golden years now!!!
23 years later…
Graduated High School and turned 18 in July of ‘99. Best year ever. Nothing since has come close.
Class of 99' baby! When they told us Everything would shut down... we partied like it was 1999!! 🍾🥂
Hell yeah! Good times
1999 was the last year of the 2nd millenium. If Weird History made Timeline: 2000s for next year, a new and 3rd millenium was born.

Owen Hart wasn't wrestling the Undertaker the night he died, he was booked to wrestle The Godfather
facts
I came here to say the same thing. Damn, Weird History. It’s not a hard fact to Google this information and you even went out of your way to make a graphic with Undertaker portrayed in the ring. Side note: highly recommend watching the VICE “Dark Side of the Ring” episode about Owen Hart
Dang somebody beat me to it. Owen was going to win the intercontinental title that night
And the only reason the show continued that night was that call Steve Austin had to drop the WWE title to the undertaker. Otherwise the show would have been stopped
And the harness was not tethered. He was wearing a single button easy release on his harness and the cape accidentally hit the button that's why he fell. Owen did not want to do the stunt at all. He didn't even go to rehearsal.
The 90,'s is and will always be the best decade. It seems to still linger as if it never left.
The 80s seems to be the most favored. Hence, these videos started w/ that decade, as well as VH1's "I Love the..." series. From the 2000s to 2020s, it has never let go of pop culture nostalgia.
Everyone will have a decade that meant the most to them.
@@fieryhellkitten But not every decade will be equally loved in general.
The 90s was the last "great" decade, as the overwhelming majority still lived without internet access.
@@Gobble_de_Goop Ah, sweet hypocrisy.
I love this channel!! Tear drops for the 90s which was my best years as a small kid to teenagehood' and I'm so excited for the 70s, another decade I'm obsess with lol
PLEEEEAASSEEE!!!! Do the 2000s next. I love this series.
We went to see the Matrix when it came out in High School, however my bassist failed to tell any of us that he had taken 4 hits of acid before hand. He didn't even make it through the credits before running out and spent the whole time in the car doing who knows what.
I’m in favor of leash laws for bass players.
I was 19 in 1999. I was living in a tiny, shitty apartment that had the lovely view of a GoodYear tire sign (ironically, because it wasn't a "good year"). Everything on the radio was either Santana's Smooth, Christina Aguilera's Genie in a Bottle or Celia Cruz's La Vida es un Carnaval. I lived in Argentina and we just got a new president, who would later abandon the presidency in 2001 in a helicopter admist riots. It was a weird time.
Turned 19 in October.
How's life going now? I hope you have a better apartment now!
It was a good for me because I was 10 lol
I was 20 in 1999. It's hard to believe that 22 years had gone already! It's like I go to bed in my 20s and boom I'm in my 40s!
i was negative 8 in 1999
I remember throughout the entire year thinking the world was gonna end because of Y2K. Besides that, I fondly remember Pokémon cards, Backstreet Boys, N*SYNC and the debut of Spongebob in 1999.
It is amazing that Spongebob is still going strong after 22 years now. Some cartoon do not last long even though Looney Tunes ran from 1943 - 1946, it is probably one of the few that still gets aired till this day
Me too. :)
So much crazy propaganda.
Y2K disaster will really happen in 2KY: 2025

Love this. Please do a 2000s!
It was actually a 23 Min Standing Ovation, I remember it like it was yesterday... I'm from Philly and remember watching the whole game knowing it was really gonna be mike's last, he was so flushed, embarrassed and honored, he didn't know what to do he would stand up for a while take it in, sit back down talk to his teammates, put his head down smiling and just sat back and loved that he would get that much love here in Philly.. We knew we'd NEVER see a Man That could fly without wings again and I loved every minute of it...**You just had to be there to get it🐐Goat🐐
This is my favorite show. Not just on the internet. Favorite show in general. Dude needs a Netflix deal.
It's our final 90's Video. Man the memories! The biggest memory I had for that year was the introduction was the release of 2 games that forever shaped me as a kid: Jet Force Gemini and SUPER SMASH BROS.
The Matrix changed the world. I was a teenager and everything smelt like change, we tech enthusiasts wondered about the future, experimented with newly found freedoms and techno music ... what an amazing time to be alive !
Please do the next decade. These videos are gold. I just binged '84-'99.
I was tripping balls on new years eve, 1999. Then after the ball dropped we flipped over to comedy central to watch Cheech and Chong's Up In Smoke. Good times...
The Movie Channel had a marathon of all the Paramount F13 movies that day from what I remember.
At least you had a good New Years. Mine was depressing!
Hahahah! me too! I ate shrooms and waited for YK2 to hit! Then, when nothing happened, we all went out in the snow and smoked a huge J. I also graduated high school in '99. Can't believe it was over 20 years ago.
No Conan O'Brien's "In the year 2000" clips predicting the future? Those were hilarious.
Oh yeaaaahh!!
The late 90’s were some of the best times of my life. I feel so fortunate to have grown up in that era. From Pokémon to TRL with Carson Daily to the greatest era of professional wrestling with the Monday night wars, every was good for me back in those times!
2000-2005 had better wrestling though. 1998 is were things STARTED to get good and hit peak somewhere between 2000-2007.
This was such an awesome recap. Covered so many topics. Thank you, Weird History!
I remember being a kid and seeing the matrix for the first time, there was nothing else like it
Totally agree. I went to see it 11 times in the theater!
the Fry2k ad was genius. now a days McDonalds ads are just “here’s a celebrity. ok now but food”
in the 90's Mcdonald's was the place to eat, now it's a last resort.
Ever since that movie “supersize me” came out people are ashamed to admit they like McDonald’s… it’s kinda silly because if nobody really liked their food they wouldn’t be doing so well 😂 it’s like a part of growing up in the US! Happy meals were a rare and scrumptious treat when I was growing up in the 90s… anybody that doesn’t like chicken McNuggets is clearly lying
Those things aren't even any good 15 min after you get them. They turn into starch sticks!
Y2K was such overhyped hysteria. I remember that New Year's Eve, my father and I went to a local grocery store to buy a few items for New Year's dinner. We parked in the last parking space. When we entered the store, it was mass pandemonium! People frantically buying gallons of water, toilet paper, and canned goods. It was very reminiscent to what happened in the initial stage of the pandemic. I was 20 at the time, but I knew that nothing was going to happen.
Same, I remember eating then sitting in front of the tv with my mom and sister watching the countdown. Just a normal night lol. I was 10
Temi reminds me of COVID
Nothing big happened from Y2K simply because they fixed the major problems in time. There would have been problems if they hadn't realized it was a big deal and rushed to fixed things. The reason people were still nervous was because there was some uncertainty as to whether or not there were remaining bugs in systems that hadn't been found. It turned out that they did a really good job of hunting down and fixing enough of the bugs before the clock rolled over.
I remember how disappointed people were that nothing happened.
Days before it turned year 2000, my husband told me that he knew a guy that bought guns for when year 2000 comes. The guy told my husband that it was going to be the end of the world and that everyone was going to go crazy and there would be shootings and vandalism and he was going to protect himself. That it was going to be every man for himself. 😂
He’s not the only one that I heard about doing that. People said that they were going to get guns and start shooting in the streets. CRAZY!!!
14yrs old and I remember it well! I got drunk for my first time. Hell it was Y2K! The world was gonna end and I couldn't go anywhere without hearing prince.
Took me 4 months to travel back in time. I finished all the 70’s 80’s and 90’s. Your channel is one of kind, much love and respect. Will you be visiting the 2000 s in a series, I would love to see that.
This is hands-down my favorite TH-cam channel
I’m hype for both of these up coming series! Keep up the great work ☺️💕
Napster, now we have Spotify which pays the artists literal pennies. Thanks Lars
Man his comments pissed me off. “do you expect musicians to work for free?” No, they get paid exorbitant amounts of money to perform live and if they make music because they genuinely have something to say / want to make people feel something. People will appreciate it and spend the money on their records anyway. Art created purely for financial gain turns out to be trash 99% of the time.
And he said this knowing full well that album sales went up tremendously because music sharing eliminated the fear of an album having just one good single then nine filler tracks. Lars should be in prison for ruining so many lives.
Now, $35 gets a beautiful vinyl press, $10 gets a CD + digital copy.

Thank you!! I’m glad you picked the 70s up next!
This was my best year as a kid. I miss those days . Thanks for making this 😁
Excellent stuff. Always look forward to these and glad the 70s are next. Great idea for food history too. Thanks for your hard work 🤙
Well done for completing Timeline: '90s. As we finish the last year of the 2nd millenium, like I said before, *"Are you ready to party like it's 1999?"* Also, I'm looking forward if you can do Timeline: 2021 for Christmas and Timeline: 2000s for next year and for opening the 3rd millenium.
Well 1999 woudnt be the last year of the 2nd millennium that would be the following year 2000. As the year 2000 was the 1000th and final year of the second millennium which started on Jan 1 1001. 1999 would be the last year of the 1990s decade but not the 20th century or the 2nd millennium till 2000.
2000 is/was the last year of the 20th century don't believe me count to ten and tell me via reply comment where you start/end I'll wait.
It's won't happen next year still the 20th century in the 70s hopefully 50s and 60s.
@@djian703 I'm a little confused by the grammar of your comment (I'm not the greatest at punctuations but I still try mostly) can please provide more details?
I'm surprised and happy that Weird History announced to do Timeline: '70s. What are your predictions of that video topic? The '70s was a thrilling decade when we saw the rise of disco and some movies. Is there more aside from those?
been waiting for this one!! I was born in 1999... my mom still talks about how she watched news coverage of JFK Jr.'s death at the hospital while she was in labor with me lol
My younger brother was born the 14th of July, and the day he was brought home was the same day JFK Jr died
I wanted him to make a series for the 2000s for a similar reason. When I was born the news at the hospital were all about the 2000 election and the shutdown of the last Chernobyl reactor.
1999 was the year I was born!! So to me this is a great video!! Thank you
Rewatching all the timelines! When is the next season coming out? I can't get enough of this series! It reminds me of the old series on VH1, the I love the '80s, I love the '90s, I love the '70s, etc... I used to love watching that show. Now watching this one brings back a lot of memories growing up, born in 1984.
Oh hell yes.
Putting that reminder for sure!!
The 'we'll be right back segway' is always randomly hilarious 😂😂
If it wasn’t for countless programmers burning the midnight oil, Y2K would’ve happened as intended. What a decade to end a millennia.
Thanks again Weird History for producing such a high quality throwback! Can’t wait to return back to the 70’s.
On December 31 1999 at midnight I was standing outside to ring in the new-year when my friend yelled out, "DAMN MY COMPUTER CRASHED". That brought laughs from all my neighbours.
Owen Hart was supposed to be Wrestling The Godfather on the pay per view. I love these timeline videos, they bring back so many memories
I was 11 in 1999. One of my fondest memories of the year was that before school let off for winter break, we had a party with holiday treats and made stocking stuffers for our parents. This was back when classrooms could have multi-faith or even generic winter holiday parties without the "War on Christmas" or atheist Karens complaining, and ours was great: There were Christmas cookies and fudge, one kid who was Jewish brought latkes and applesauce, we all had a fantastic time.
And those stocking stuffers? We made "Y2K bugs" out of pipe cleaners, with little wooden balls for the heads. I have this vivid memory of sitting at my desk and very carefully drawing a smiley face on my bug's head, and I was so proud of myself because I'm not much of an artist but I got it just right! Ah, childhood, especially pre-9/11-and-its-aftermath childhood, I miss you.
Do you think it’s 9/11 and the “war on terror” that made us so nostalgic for the 90s?
I live in Scotland and even I found it exhausting throughout the 00s, but then again I was a young adult back then and probably just struggling to figure out my role.
@@CursedWheelieBin I think everyone has nostalgia for the eras of their childhoods, but millennials who can remember a pre-9/11 world definitely have special circumstances for that nostalgia. The world would be different and unrecognizable if 9/11 and the "war on terror" didn't happen.
Born in 1980 and I truly miss those times. Feels like a completely different planet
WWF, Digimon, Pokemon, Dragon Ball Z, Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, Disney Channel. All definitive editions to my childhood. Can't wait for the 2000's...
Gonna wait til season 4 lol 70s is the next timeline
@@thedawkknight6162 The 2000's get no love
@@Dante95nyc i thought they gonna be the next season since we did the 80s and wrap up the 90s so hopefully after the 70s season is done plus on the polls the 00s was voted the most by which timeline to do next while the 70s was in second place
@@thedawkknight6162 That's gonna be somewhere in the winter. You see how long it took him to the 90's lol.
Finally, by the time they finish the next decade video, it'll be time to do the 2020s
Exactly..
Thanks for making these series. I enjoyed watching all of it. Bravo!
I'm still living in the 90's. I refuse to leave... such a good time 😌
Yessss! I still wish it still were 1999. Such a simpler time and more carefree
Still Live In The 90s Never Really Moved Forward.
2 mins on Ricky Martin and barely 10 seconds on “the Matrix”…one of the most transformative sci-fi, nay any type of movie, ever made. It was ground breaking in vfx, story and the massive comeback of mr. Anderson himself, Keanu reeves.
Cry some more
Yawn to both
Ricky Martin was much bigger worldwide, though.
overhyped, it wasnt even a good movie. Its boring, slow moving, and leaves so much to be desired
My all-time favourite year to have been alive, even though I was only 5, there was still so much happening, besides the excitement and anticipation of the millennium hype, there was also great movies, great music, great pop culture, 1999 had it all and most of it is still with us today. I still listen to the music and watch the movies from this year on a regular basis. And also something we don't have today - looking at the future with hope. Today we look to the past, it just shows how times have changed and how much we took it for granted.
97 98 99 was off the hook for teen comedy movies. That was an insane 3 years of teen comedies. On par with the 80s and john hughes teen comedies.
This series is underrated
For me 1999 year was the most tragic and saddest year ever, my junior sister past away😔 May your soul be in Paradise Farizajon 🕊
My condolences 😢 🌸
Glad I saw it. Nobody really cared when it was 1990 or 2010. I remember they hype around 2000 though. Fun times. I was 20 when it hit 2000, and definitely partied like it was 1999 on New Years.
The reason there was so much hype about 2000 was because it wasn't just a new decade. It was a new century and a new millennium. Plus there was the Y2K end of the world rumor going around.
@@jac6547 Yeah, that's kind of what I'm saying. There isn't really any reason for hype now. We're way past that point and won't see it again in our lifetime. Maybe our grandkids will. I bet it was just like that in 1899 too.
i wish i got to see the world go from 1999 to 2000 but i was born in 2008
The death of John F Kennedy Jr was a tremendous loss. He was thinking about running for the New York senate in the 2000s. Then run to become New York governor and maybe even run for the presidency of the United States.
The Kennedy family sure has some tough luck.
more like tough enemies within the deep state.
I love the Weird History Timeline. My request to make timeline of The 2000s, so I can relive, remember and relate to everything of the new millennium, and then some.
Thanks for the trip down 90s memories lane🚘✈️🚉. It was like sending your mind away for 10 mins to reminisce😎
It made me sad too 😂😂
Appreciate these videos so much. Even as a nerd who lived through all of these and paid attention, I missed SO much! Thank you for filling in the gaps for some and educating the rest with a cliff notes of history. Thank you!!
When are the 70’s coming?!? I miss this series tremendously
This was one of the greatest years of my life. I broke up with a serious girlfriend who I treated like gold but was stingy with her heart and frustratingly frigid so I then moved to Maui. Started a successful business as well as a new life all together. Sorry Christine but the only thing keeping me from moving to Hawaii at the time was meeting you putting those plans on hold and trying to make it work. I was head over heels with her but so happy I grew a set of balls and broke it off. Best decision of my life.
Respect my man.
respect from me, as well
My first job after high school was at Lowe’s. After closing, I would put Eminem on over the PA every night while we restocked and prepared for the Y2K apocalypse
I used to turn up the radio in Wendys and blast music over the speakers around this time. My fat boss climbed up on a chair to turn it down and fell and broke her leg. Others turned it up sometimes, so I said I didn't do it. I think I was the one who taught everyone how to do it though, and change the channel to a rap station. They would come in the morning and turn it on and it was blasting rap. 😂
I love these videos so much. This is probably the 5th time I’ve watched all the Timeline 80s and 90s videos. Here’s to hoping Timeline: The 70s debuts soon!
1999 was full of firsts for me that I can't put on here...great video!
My favorite year by far of my life. Such good memories and times for me.
