Imagine going back in time to the 1950's. Telling them you can hold in one hand a device that holds all of the information known to man. Then explain to them we just use it to harass strangers and look at pictures of cats.
Bwaahaaahaaaa! Boy have you hit the nail on the head!
That’s not what everyone uses the internet for haha
I look at dogs thank you very much!
LMAO
David Ashenbrener , to see how many people have similar last names, lol!!
my Grandmother likes to tell a story about her father. my grandmother was born in the 1920's and her father passed away while she was in her teens. at some point before he passed he sat her down and told her that before she died she would be able to hold the phone in her hand and see whoever she was speaking to. she is 90 years old and you can hold your cellphone in your hand and make video calls.......
anyabar1987 fake and gay
Ranezia sad excuse for a human , person maybe but human no.........
anyabar1987 thats so dope
that's so rad
anyabar1987 My uncle born in the 1930's has a similar story about the TV. When he was a teenager sitting in the car listening to a radio program he said "wouldn't it be great if there was a box we could watch so we could see what the people are laughing at? "
The fact that I'm watching this on a smart phone is BLOWING MY MIND
Catherine Miner ME TOO! HOW DOES IT WORK? HOW AM I JUST TOUCHING THE SCREEN AND LETTERS APPEAR?!?!?
Qut 😂😂😂
c.m. lol
c.m. OMG 707 I'll likes you would get what I'm talking about if you played a "certain" video game
c.m. same
From a book called prophecy 2000 written in 1964; "you will be able to watch a motion picture in the palm of your hand."
Cellphones...
As we are.. watching this video in the palms of our hands...
Yeah, but they didn't include hot chicks with dicks did they? It's ironic how there's more than one side to how technology changes culture.
Shiet dawg. Time travel. Illumination confirmed
Sent me amazon link
I showed my 92 Year old great-grandmother my iPhone and my iPad and she was like "Oh my, we are living in the future!" I also let her listen to some music and she liked some.
You are so sweet to your great grandma.

I really dont think they predicted the future. But rather created the future. We create what we think up
Ooo someone read science of getting rich
Yeah that is what was thinking
deep

We can only create what we think up
most of what they're describing is basically all in a cell phone.

I love how they turn on the air conditioner at home using a rotary telephone.
That would extremely hard to do...
but by the late 1980s a system was available from Radio Shack called a Home Controller..the way it worked was you needed a modem and a computer (Tandy of course) and a handful of controller modules..you would plug the controller module into the wall then plug something into it i.e. a lamp..you would dial home from a touch phone the computer would pick it up... then you would enter a code for which device you wanted to turn on or off the software would send a signal to the controller module ..
As far as cost you would be into it for at least $2000 (over $4500 in today's money)..
I guess first Bluetooth connection or wifi
rotary phone would be a good punishment for your little brats.😁
And a window unit comes on.😅🤣😂
Isn't that how you turn your ac on?
my grandma is born in 1933. Witnessed every war in the Philippines and is now addicted to facebook.
forgot to mention she just turned 83 this july.
Kokoro Pororo well she has been prepared.
Fuck you.

kevin_kevinthe he said every war in the Philippines, the Philippines was not part of WW1
I don't get how a electric cabinet that takes 10 minutes to open is more convenient that just opening a door xD
its so they save space, something close to those mini fridges built into the wall.
WackyDaWaccoon I was thinking the same thing. Would drive me crazy waiting for that to open every time I needed something from the fridge.
I believe they expected it to be more quick and to save space because who wants a giant freeze box covering 15-20% of their kitchen
thats why we still have doors. :D
well maybe it'd be useful for old people. it's like those chairs for the stairs...it takes forever to get down but it's faster than picking yourself up if you fall xD
When they said slim tvs that can go on the wall I looked at my tv on the wall and I was like ayyyyyyyyyy
hiddenpower 6 ayyyyyyyyyeee "Marvellous "
hiddenpower 6 I know, it's crazy our TVs are about as thin as a children's book now

I was born in 1955. I have watched and experienced a lot of this come to pass and the changes they have brought. It is simply amazing to me but my adult children take it pretty much for granted. I love having such infinite information and communication in my hand. I remember the predictions and thought they were crazy.
I’m 18 but ever since I was a kid I wondered why people weren’t more impressed by the internet: being able to look up anything instead of searching for a long time in books at the library, playing online games with groups of friends, renting/ buying movies online and watching them in an instant, order things online and have them arrive in one to 5 days, and so on. It’s simply crazy and everyone born into these devices see it as a given and simply don’t care about how revolutionary modern technology is.
agreed 100%
what other predictions are there ?
A lot of this seems like a matter of relative perspective.
Generations can grow up well before or are born in periods of technological advancements and concepts.
It may not be that long until future generations born are born in an era of common interstellar space flight between Earth, Luna and Mars may look at how we live today on only one planet as bizarre and limited.
Funny how we watch these people predict the future on devices smaller then they ever imagined
Yet these devices are getting bigger and bigger
he making the safe move
As a computer operator in the 1980's - 90's I could not imagine a home computer or even a mobile phone would have more memory than the mainframe at the computer centre.
We computer operators went to a computer expo. There they had the new IBM 386 computers. We were amazed about the 80 megs of hard drive.
And watching said videos on a near-limitless virtual domain of information, communication, trade, employment, arts, learning, and entertainment they never would have dreamed possible.
The guy being able to see the guy outside the door was super accurate, like spot on
(4:54)
Ring doorbell lol
The one thing I’ve noticed is that they thought we would use different devices for everything. We’d have a device to use as a telephone, another device to email, another device to watch TV. Nowadays we can literally do everything we need on our phone if we wanted. The only reason we’d use a different device like a PC or TV is for a larger display / faster processing.
Out phones can't print anything
" The only reason we’d use a different device like a PC or TV is for a larger display / faster processing"
Actually, that's starting to happen now with foldable phone/tablets and foldable tablet/laptop hybrids e.g. I have a Samsung Z Fold 3 that can turn into a "larger display" and has 'Dex' a "desktop" computer like interface.
foldable, rollable displays and short throw projector technology that throw out 100" displays from a "smaller" display seems to be the current trend.
"faster processing" is relative as today we have computers and mobile devices sharing having nearly the same level of processing power and speed e.g. M1 iPads and M1 MacBooks.
Also...Augmented Reality glasses are a thing but still very niche.
@@misbinky2947 why do they have to?
We can write on "digital paper" and electronically transfer them.
Many students including myself haven't used actual paper nor had to print it out at Uni for some time.
The only places I know that still need to use paper are at work , government institutions and anything that requires a level of official authentication/certification, other than that it is possible to be almost completely digital and in some cases it's more practical.
One thing they didn't predict:
Bottled water
Yeah, bottled water in plastic containers that aren't biodegradable and litter oceans and streets.
They thought we'd be smarter than that.
I remember my parents telling me that when bottled water first came out, people thought it was a crazy idea and nobody would buy it
@@esquilax5563 Bottled water has been out for around 100 years. Please Google.

When I was a kid during the 70's me and my friends said "Do you think we can see each other while talking on the phone in the future"?" Then we laughed and laughed.
imagine not growing up without a phone or a computer like im really curious to know what kids did back then.... you can't be outside 24/7??!

George Orwell 1984 predicted a lot of things we have these days. The headphones. That is pretty crazy. He called them tiny seashells
yeah thats exactly why im eating myself to death
They've had headphones since like the 20's...
paula enriquez he also predicted much more relevant things
Floating cities=Cruise ships, 'the people never looked up from the small screens they held in their hands'=people texting while sitting across the table from each other. The birth control pill, and leave us not forget Big Brother.
paula enriquez I think they had headphones in 1984 just they were the size of beats

1950s: everything in the 20th century will be plastic
2019: say no to single use plastics, hashtag save the turtles
Plastic is illegal in California. Who would have guessed?
I picked up on that when they were talking about the dishwasher storage. "Plastic of course"
🤣 here we are banning the use of plastics right down to the straws.
21st dumbass
Im glad plastic is being used less. We do have to save the turtles, and many, many more things lmao
@buzzclick500 Lmao.
Crazy how the people from the past will NEVER know or confidently imagine what the future did become. And same with us!!! We will never be for certain what will happen to this earth in say 600 years makes me kind of sad like there is no way we will see
Future nostalgia? Maybe it's better that we don't know and live the best way can in the present.
There may be as they find out more on genetics and how to stop or slow down the aging process.
well, some of the younger ones from the past are still around today
@@OpiaKitty Yes, I remember a guy on TV in the early-mid-80s saying that one day there would be no difference between one's computer, television, telephone, record player, VCR, Walkman, etc. I looked around back then, at the CRT TV, the Vic 20, the Rockford Files-style dial phone, the cabinet hi-fi with the 8 track/record player and the ghetto blaster, and laughed my butt off.
Now my cell "phone" is the one laughing, I guess.
LaikaLycanthrope it’s true, i guess the cell phone is the one laughing now. but give it a few years and there will be something else replacing even that. technology is advancing quicker than i can accept.
also i’m fairly young so i wasn’t alive in the 80s, but i was wondering if you would rather keep this society with advanced technology, (cell phones.. etc) or would you rather have it go back to what it was like in the 80’s?
"So slim that it could be hung on the wall."
This guy can see into the future. Like wow. Spot on.
Lauren Opara He literally visualized the flat screen TV!
Lauren Opara As soon as I heard that I turned around and looked at my 50" tv mounted on the wall. lol
The last guy was even more spot on, he visualized the Singularity, which is yet to be reached, in the 60s! And seeing that such accurate predictions about the future were made 50 years ago, I think it's safe to say that when scientists say we'll reach the Singularity around 2060 they are not joking
Chris K theres quite a difference between predidicting that if the assets for a television would take up less space as they had been you could hang it up the wall, and that everybody is going to be an android
Lauren Opara yeah its funny, but people are acting like OMG THIS GUY IS BRILLIANT, THIS GUY IS JESUS because some guy just has the rational that if the assets for a television set would decrease in size as they had been, you could hang it up the wall at some point. anyone could think that up
Well people back then didn't think that woman would be working as doctors, lawyers etc

"No predictions by science fiction writers" he said, right after showing a prediction by Arthur C. Clark, who invented the world's first communications satellite and the 2001 and 2010 novels.
You misunderstand, it was in the context of their works. Like talking about the future directly how it is expresses in a fictional book set in the future, rather than flat out predictions within themselves.
Think Fact He verbally made predictions at the beginning of this video!!!
I'm not reading all that. Just admit you fucked up and move on.

Wow they predicted Computers being in every home turning on Appliance’s and utilities Wirelessly, FaceTime and call waiting and a flat screen tv hung up on the wall wow
All those things they thought were so amazing and marvelous back then... and here we are, present day, with our flat tiny phones with touchscreens that arent even just phones anymore, and ridiculously fast computers and such, and what do we do? We stand around complaining about these gizmos, saying "What a piece of junk!" and stuff. The impossible/incredible becomes so mundane. Kinda amazing to think about, really...
...and then these mental children complaining about their generation! Get rid of them!

Watchin this in 2019 from a tv hung on a wall while a man from the 1970’s on ur tv talks about how 1 day TVs will be hung on walls... CHILLS!!!
Wydia Becton common sense
Whats even more scarier is that the people showcasing these future technologies already had the prototypes and could have already made them back then.
I really wanna like but those 100 likes look so good
They were already being built into walls so why not hung there? Everybody knew from a half century of technological changes that tech always gets smaller, lighter, and more user friendly, so you don't have to know how things work to use them. Everything today can be predicted on that principal. And human reaction has always been predictable, awe and excitement, becoming lazier and reliant on the tech, finding the tech has taken over their lives, trying to regain a measure of independence and control, coming to a compromise with tech use.
T.V. Screens will be getting bigger and even become so slim they can even be hung on the wall. 😂😂😂
What about being able to call home to turn on the air conditioning or the sprinkler?
I use an app on my phone to set my aircon to a temperature, or turn on the sprinkler.
We are living in the future.

They got that right
did you notice that the TV screen was closer to a 16 x 9 ratio? it wasn't square like the old ones.
1960s: We will have robots in the future!
2018: Alexa play Despacito...
Close enough

Please Dont take my nuggers Ask this question again in 5 years when drones deliver you coffee.
they had robots in the 1980s
I'm not sure that's what they had in mind. But yes, we have robots in grocery stores to pay for our selections, and robots on our trains that run through the city (you didn't think that little chick with the attitude was actually driving, did you?) The tech giants in Silicon Valley have gone past the physical robot to the virtual one; in fact, we will soon see holograms interacting with humans. We already have androids, just not the ones with super computerized brains yet. It's not that far away.
The 50's sure loved plastic... A lot
It was the new shiny. That is probably the biggest reason why.
We do, too. It just doesn't show as much.
Stainless steel is 21st century
@@jesuschristhomeslice9492 and probably nano ceramics/metal in the 22nd-23rd century
You have got to be kidding! When I was a kid in the 50’s food was packaged in paper, cellophane, cardboard, or glass bottles or jars. Clothing was cotton, wool, linen, silk. The furniture was made of wood, fabric, leather and metal as were the toys and sporting goods. Shoes were leather or canvas.
We are being buried alive in a world of plastic now. Almost everything we eat is packaged in plastic. I bought a cucumber recently that was individually sealed in shrink-wrap plastic. Apples are being sold in styrofoam trays, jacketed in more plastic foam and covered with a plastic dome. One can buy a mouthful of pudding or yogurt or juice in its own damned plastic mini-container. Candy is wrapped in Mylar that will last millenia. Orange juice is sold in plastic jugs that is so ridiculously rugged one could store paint in them for centuries. We eat or drink something and the containers it comes in are not recycled and do not safely degrade. When I was a kid the thought of anyone buying water as a beverage in a plastic bottle would have been completely laughable. Our appliances, cars, furniture, computers, clothing, shoes, tools,- plastic, plastic,plastic... I am typing this rant on a plastic keyboard. There are continents of plastic clogging the oceans of the world. Sea creatures and ocean going birds are dying because they are jammed full of plastic. There are beaches that consist of more plastic particles than sand!
It is an orgy of plastic today. It is fucking insane. We are endangering ourselves and the entire ecosystem with this run-a-way thoughtless plastic nightmare.
“Candies for cuties” omg yes everybody needs that
Almost as much as I could use a bunghole shaver on my Swiss Army knife.
jimcarreyonline I used this and now I’m in prison!!!!
Some of these are amazingly correct
Svízel přítula the man speaking at the beginning had it spot on 👌🏻
Everything they said is correct?
I WAS BORN IN 1955 SO I GREW UP IN THE NON TECH ERA. IVE WATCHED IT DEVELOP INTO UNREAL HEIGHTS OF ACHIEVEMENTS. SOMETIMES SCARY FOR US.
Sometimes I feel the same. If it wasn't for my curiosity as a child (back in the 70's), I would be lost with things like computers, tablets etc as we have it today. From the late 70's until today there has been a giant leap regarding electronics and high tech available for "normal" people. Computers were things that governments and very large companies had back then, no one would have dreamt of ordinary people having such a thing in their home....let alone internet .

Yes, the internet is actually very old. Well over a half century. But it took until the 90's for it to come into use by the average person (which also, of course, led to its use by the, er, below-average person!).

The internet was invented in 1960's not the 50's.
Not really. Plenty of people in the 1950's and 1960's predicted shopping for things in front of a screen without having to leave home.

Lily Cannon I laughed at that😂😂
They actually predicted flat screen L.E.D tv's back in the 70's
And can be broken 10 times easier since its HUGE
10:22 “Hey Siri, thank you for doing an excellent job”
“Sorry, I couldn’t find Martha in your contact list”
vandan agrawal hahaha Ha!
Did they just predict the induction stove in the 1957 one!?
budmeister yes, yes they did
I believe the technology was there at the time, or at least the theory of its working was there, but not a viable way of mass production.
budmeister yep... and mentioned the microwave in the 1967 one.
Wouldn't it be cool if time travel was real and we can show one of these guys around
Habrid O'Young Right..Lol
Habrid O'Young or just watch elders react to tecnology
Habrid O'Young I used to like fantasize about this when I was little... (mostly rose characters from the American girl doll books)
Habrid O'Young Even if time machine was invented, the creators would destroy it after a few tests. People who can invent a time machine are smart enough to know how dangerous it si
Rokka a time machine wouldn't be dangerous if we somehow made it so when we came back, it was like we were never there.
that 70s guy knows exactly what's gonna happen lol
Funny how they thought were gonna spend that much time in the kitchen.
i do
Yeh I suppose sometimes I use my dishwasher as storage 😄
Holly Adamou My daughter has a dishwasher in her kitchen but has a sign on it not to use because " dishwashing is an assigned chore" for her kids.
Glenn Lego haha! 😄👍
My dishwasher was built in the 1960s, so they forgot to predict that some of us would still be using 1960s technology in the 21st century. The funny thing about it is that I start it by slamming the door shut.
I would love that!
jeepster4u2003 done you watch the middle? Ovens are for bulk storage like quilts
A lot of the 50s-60s stuff reminds me of Fallout.
Edit: 130 likes what the hell
Fallout follows a different universe where we focused on nuclear engineering rather that branching out
Coltallic it's because the technological revolution never happened in fallout
Fallout is a *Retro Futuristic*.
It gives me those vibes too.
it actually is the same universe till 1945, then the universe diverges from ours. they focus on nuclear technology, and the transistor isn't invented in the 50s like our universe. they keep the 50s style up until the nuclear war, and the transistor is not invented till like 2 or 3 years before the war in 2070 (if I remember correctly)
Coltallic yeah and its pretty cool tbh.
Well it actually turned out far better than the productions for the most part
Predictions
Ya, for the one about the phone on the computer, we now have Skype and wechat!
+ThatXoneXguy It's like Skype just for wee little people.
"The man of the future might spend most of his time here."
Oh, you mean on the computer? Yeah, that's accurate.
But instead of work, it's PornHub!
How about I predict about the future?
hmm... let me think...
robots everywhere.
Renars Magone the future: more shitty internet trends, assuming that we haven't nuked eachother yet.
Peter Laing innit
Peter Laing Indeed.
Mountain Shredder Cell phones aren't robots...... yet
***** it's a device... not a robot...
Hahaha, and what do WE predict for the future? Barren apocalyptic wastelands and the end of civilization. That or war with an alien species.
Natalia Your life is probably one hell of a wasteland
Natalia You forgot the zombie apocalypse with the virus and stuff
Rokka
AKA: College application season
END OF THE WORLD!!😈😈
Natalia I seen a video the other day about future predictions, they were pretty insane!!
Some that I can remember were,
Ocean Farming, as the world population will be a lot bigger.
A car the 100% drives itself and everything.
Robots ( of course lol )
We will have technology to be able to hook our brains up to a computer and upgrade ourselves.
Robots outsmarting their maker seems freaky
Jessika Maughan computers?
Jessika Maughan That's already happening... :P
every time I play chess with the computer 😠
It reminds me of the terminator movie where eventually skynet becomes self aware. Ironically, there is presently a skynet building robots. Now thats scary!
your cellphone is smarter than you
The futuristic view of a city was from 1927, in the movie "Metropolis". The "Jetsons" predicted "push-button-itis", which we now call carpel tunnel. The Walter Cronkite series, "The 21st Century", was from the early 70s, and it was riveting. I recently found that episode and was able to compare it to reality. Some of it was spot on. Some was way off. All of it was fun.
"Now the present day computers are complete morons..." lol
+Josh Giesbrecht the computers got smarter and us humans are now the complete morons!
+Computer Associates Hello im a microphone thats writting this. Bananarain of asid
+Josh Giesbrecht Yup we can watch television on our phones while taking a shit.
+Josh Giesbrecht and todays time, the people in front of the computers have turn into complete morons xD
+Josh Giesbrecht Imagine a smart AI finding all the shit calling computers stupid...
what if people in the 50s predicted the fidget spinner
__Getalife13__ Oh yeah one day they said oh we will make an spinny toy for autistic ADHD children that does.... nothing
They probably had them, but called them something else. And they were made from cereal boxes.
Wouldn't have been hard. Fidget spinners were invented in the 60s.
*back then* we will have amazing city's and flying airplanes!
2017: Fidget spinners.
Byzantine Mapper That's the point ;) its a mind fuck
flying what ??
Chief Tooth A flying airplane? What humbug! Airplanes will never be able to fly.
Insurance companies killed flying cars.
It's funny how in the 50s when they predicted the future they figured that women would still be classy.
far opposite from that...
Two words: human nature.
50s were truly a sexist time. thats what i was thinking about.
So true
@@deli5194 well I'd rather Ankle length skirts and a blouse instead of a fully clothed artificial animal that yiffs instead of using human speech
Idk why but his 'ooh swish' at 2:42 had me going for so long AHAHAHAH wtf
He was just predicting George Takei's "oh myyyyyyy!"
Instead we get fidget spinners
sidget finners*

I'm old, but a lot of technology has come and gone.
Ironically, I was just telling my daughter and teenaged grandson about Walter Cronkite last week. I said he was considered the most trustworthy man in America. Then explaining there was no CNN or Fox. THEN explaining news just reported facts, not opinions.
Nah, Cronkite lied to us a lot, we just disn't have the ability fact check him. New media hasn't gotten worse, it's just not adjusted to the social media age.
Well people from my generation don't have to worry about that since no one watches TV.
@@maizenn925 Welcome to the future! tvs r no longer a thing! (There's probably at least 1 person that will use a tv)
Did they look at you like you had 3 heads?
Wow your a grandma/pa
the dish washer is a place to hold your dishes
i have an asian family
so the dish washer just does hold the dishes for us. we dont actually use it we wash the dish by hand.
Lelouch The Coffee Guy
We don't waste duh water
Lmao you stole this joke.
Lelouch The Coffee Guy exactly
my asian family washes dishes by hand and uses the dishwasher as a huge drying rack
I'm not Asian, but I also use the dishwasher as a drying rack. I'd rather wash dishes by hand because that's how I was taught growing up. I never cared for learning how to use a dish washer.
"When wireless is perfectly applied the whole earth will be converted
into a huge brain, which in fact it is, all things being particles of a
real and rhythmic whole. We shall be able to communicate with one
another instantly, irrespective of distance. Not only this, but through
television and telephony we shall see and hear one another as perfectly
as though we were face to face, despite intervening distances of
thousands of miles; and the instruments through which we shall be able
to do his will be amazingly simple compared with our present telephone. A
man will be able to carry one in his vest pocket." -Nikola Tesla, 1926
+williamsrhyn Well, Nikola Tesla would be proud but speaking of Nikola, why don't we move onto Elon Musk? I think Elon should make a phone company to compete with Apple because we surely know that Elon would do WAY BETTER THAN iCrap!
+Josh Bray Android phones exist. Problem solved.
I'm in 9th grade and learned who Nikola Tesla was three weeks ago.
NEARest Galaxy Communications Don’t forget George Westinghouse. Tesla gave Westinghouse many lucrative patents to save George's business. Once saved, Westinghouse forgot Tesla.
Wow. Hanging a slim TV in the wall seemed almost impossible 60 years ago. Think about why will happen in the future
holograms
+MIC2077 "Church Windows" in the 1993 show "Wild Palms".
+MIC2077 we already have holograms but they are crazy expensive and impractical
***** You are mistaken. All of those things came much later than the 1940s.
***** New technology, once it is commercially available, is always more expensive at first because the market is small and the initial manufacturing costs are high. Once the early adopters have all bought theirs (sometimes the rich, sometimes people who have a special interest in whatever it is and splurge), the market expands, improvements in manufacturing are made, and the price falls a little bit. Eventually the price falls a lot. You are right, however, in that most of this technology was developed first by the government, either for military applications or for NASA, and then later used commercially.
2019 generation : we've reached the future
3018 generation : hold my beer
"we've reached the future." So, where do we go from here?
you know in the end well never reach the future cause some day the future wouldn't be the future the future would be today
Idk if thats gonna happen i mean they world could end right now or tomorrow
And now that i think about it, thats kinda scary
overused and boring comment
@@flimishere9075 yh maybe a asteroid is going to hit my coutry in 10 seconds and we are all going to die
Edit: we are safe phew
I love those old Disney world of tomorrow videos. They fill me with a warm nostalgia in a time I never lived.
I love that description!!!
Same here. And wonderful description!!!!!!
Same
if you ever go to Disney world, ride the carousel of progress. it's a theatre like ride that spins around several automated/animitronic sets that are highly realistic and detailed starting from the early 20's and ending in what the vision of the 90's was when the first version of the ride was made. it is extremely immersive from the sets to the animitronics. it showcases all the cool inventions of "tommorow" that were incisioned in each year
*ooh, swish.*
The narrator channeled Liberace there for a second.
That's literally the same thing I commented on another video that had this same video.
Candy for Cuties. I think the fashion one was way off unless you're talking about Lady Gaga. OMG maybe Lady Gaga is from an alternate future
jonny pepperston not that off the prediction that pants would almost entirely replace skirts,also those weird ass shoes without the heel were a trend for a while
No not even lady Gaga would put a lantern in her hair
It's not too far off. Women dont wear dresses or skirts nearly as much. Men wear cargo shorts with extra pockets for all the stuff they talked about. They said people would have built in phones on their clothes which is basically a cell phone.
@@petitcactusamer right. And it is making the males to commit son and think evil in his heart, they show their buttocks and legs. They should wear skirts that passes their knee, that doesn't show the shape of their buttocks, thighs, etc...
So glad my home is "complete" because I have a computer! :)
I just realised I have 6 all with different OS. Does the iPhone and iPad count? That’s 8. 🤦♀️
I know it's complete and all that but you got to think about adding a roof.
@@kdrapertrucker I love this comment
Where in the hell is my flying car? When I was 6 (1964), they said we'd all have flying cars by now.
We do, I think, but they're 200,000 dollars
They exist, but car companies aren't selling them.
+Breanna May Why is that?
+TheKidWhoLovesDisney AndDreamworks I don't remember exactly, but it had something to do with them making less money. The guy who invented them won't sell the plans to car companies, and do the government won't let him sell them. Also, the government says it would be dangerous because they aren't regulated.
One person drone is in development. (if you have 300k plus you may be able to get one!)
They got most of the things right. But at least they don't have to choose between Trump or Hiliary.

Some of these predictions, like cooking with electromagnetic induction, is quite startling.
That's actually true. There are stove tops like that. They cost a fortune!
Why startling?
@@dawncheriewoodworth3449 Fortune? We own one and we are not rich
We got one and it wasn't any more expensive than the alternatives, and it's great.
@@dawncheriewoodworth3449 It's called microwave...

In 1960's our technology is
"Completely Morons"
It's really scary to think that a device that you could fit in your pocket could do things that devices in the past could do, but it filled up rooms.
Jordan Lucero
the device you wrote that comment on could have probably sent Neil and Buzz to the moon and back
tacos mexicanstyle Yep
maybe so slim that we might be able to hang it (television) on the wall.
that's spot on
also the infrared glass oven is kinda like a microwave
Pasta Hobo probably a microwave oven because it cooks it and doesn't just heat it up
Thanks for putting this together. Especially with the actual videos from the past, as well as using your own voice. Way too many youtubers use robotic monotone voices and images that really don't pertain to the real topic. Keep it up. I for one am proud of your ingenuity.
No predictions regarding gender role changes. Except that women may start wearing fashionable pants lol
yeah I'm sure they'd be horrified. I allready am.0.0
Jamie J. They've escaped their kitchens and are running rampant
+Kennikans how was the garage, man?
Sass Taes Feelsbadman
Jamie J. Oh my god I forgot about that. They should've predicted "We think women will start exposing their huge asses with tight-ass pants."
where the hell is my flying car?
Steven C omg where is my "floating board"?!!
You know they actually exist... Its called an Airplane
Eqxus hendo hoverboard that is

ayy i got u, dubai is gonna be where the first flying car will be released/tested
i like how when he introduces himself he points to his lisp
"Lisp," Oxford dictionary: 'A speech defect in which s is pronounced like th in thick and z is pronounced like th in this.'

eheh, whoops.
+greyeyed123
that really grinds my gears

And even less will know how to pronounce it correctly: "et ketera"
People used to speak so nicely back then, pronouncing every syllable

“We may not have to go to work, the work will come to us”
People in 2020 in quarantine doing their work from home:👁👄👁
They got the electromagnetic induction stovetops correct.
T.C. McQueen honestly these predictions are probably the reasons we have the technology they're talking about today - a lot of innovative science is only possible after we observe the ideas in the limitless space of science fiction literature
