Orson Welles was a man beyond his time
Well he didn't even make War Of The Worlds he just did an Adaptation as the original War Of The Worlds was made in the 17th century...... so it's not something super genuis he's a good director sure but he isn't a genius story writer and the story is everything....
BB S̶k̶e̶l̶e̶t̶o̶r̶ The Lord of Destruction
I don't think the alien invasion storyline by itself is what matters, it's how Orson orchestrated this whole ordeal and fooled so many people using an outlet that was believed to be live and true, we can't deny that it was a clever move and that's why we're talking about him now and not the original war of the worlds

Why does it seem like everyone from this era has THAT voice
I think it may of been the audio equipment.
Leonardo ASN it was common to only hire, or to teach people THAT voice. And as Billybob said, the equipment definitely helped make that sound. It was the “right” way to broadcast, so people continued to talk like that on air.
It's called a transatlantic accent, it used to be taught.
they're called transatlantic accents, they're cool as fuck and need to come back into style
M nah they kinda cringe. Just like the entire British accent. It’s just rich people creating a divide in culture.

Although my grandmother has forgotten this story, as she's been getting more spacey, the story she told my dad is that her family were listening to Edgar Bergen's ventriloquist show that happened at the same time. However, after that was over, War of the Worlds was being broadcast, and they had wanted to catch as much of it as they could. They had heard about it, and Welles was a promising new talent that they'd already been impressed with. The following morning, when they saw in the newspaper that there was panic in response to War of the Worlds, her family read it and thought "wow, some people are really dumb."
wow, some people are really dumb.
Wow, some people are really dumb.
War Of the Worlds, some people are really dumb.

*wow, some people are dumb*
I’ve always been fascinated by this story of Orson’s broadcast. The War of the Worlds was one of my favourite books when I was younger, and I remember talking about it with my grandparents. My grandma told me how she’d heard about Orson’s broadcast shortly after it aired, and the, in her words, “waves of panic. People out in their porches with shotguns, protecting their homes.” I later learned that these reports were exaggerated, but the fact even my grandparents, living in Wales, heard about the whole thing not long after it happened was amazing to me.
What’s also interesting is that, even as far back as the 30’s, what were the “traditional” forms of media were affected and threatened by new technologies and methods of reaching an audience. Newspapers losing out to radio, and capitalising on any negativity of this new-fangled device that stole their audience, still happens now. TV networks vs Streaming Services, programming vs TH-cam, the parallels of how established forms of media give way to the new can still be drawn.
Fantastic video, great insight and explanation of one of my favourite events in broadcast history!

Wow my most popular comment and it is cause my chad of a great grandfather. Also just another story about him. He used to sell eggs to Einstein, but Einstein didn’t eat enough so when he went to his house he would rarely buy more so the great grandfather “fired” him as customer.
Your great grandpa's a badass.
Wait so he heard people “die” on the radio by the hands of aliens, and thought “I’m grabbing my shotgun and heading down there”
What an absolute champion

10:58 You know it's a brilliant part of media's history when the performance STILL gives you goosebumps.
I always thought it was silly how people fell for a fake alien invasion, but hearing that... Yeah, I understand now, that was VERY convincing.
it's easy to look back on it and think "ha ha they were so dumb how could anyone actually buy into an alien invasion broadcast" but honestly i'd probably shit myself if i was, i don't know, listening to my car radio on my way to work and heard something like that
Well this dude was a genius even if he didn't realize his power
Oh, he did. Maybe on the too much side. Still he was brilliant.
I mean, he did make Citizen Kane (and A Touch of Evil, he was also amazing in The Stranger and The Third Man). The man is a absolute legend, way ahead of his time.
It amuses me the fact that apparently, after one news bulletin, the majority of listeners just went "aight I'm out" and left home

Luckily, The word 'bro' didn't exist until the 70s.
@@em5345- THATS DA JOKE
The way Orson Welles ended the broadcast wasn’t too different from that actually. I highly recommend listening to it if you get the chance! 😃
@@Mallen151 "Hey look we made a Halloween special! :D sleep well.
It's just a intense joke, brother
Has there ever been a live action adaptation of this event? Not the book, but the broadcast itself.
No, and it amazes me that there hasn't, given how popular found footage is.
[edit] uh, unless you mean a movie *about* the broadcast itself, in which case yes, there's been a couple
There was a Simpsons episode about it a few years ago, but that's all that springs to mind
there have been tv movies over the years - i recall one in particular about terrorists with a nuclear bomb in charleston, that was told by news breaks and was on in the 80s. it did go off at the end, so that was surprising. they indicated it was fictional after each commercial break.
Alatina Thucklemuggin That’s Special Bulletin. There was also Without Warning that came out a decade later on the anniversary of War of the Worlds and was also about aliens
@@itseefa Wasn't that in the movie? Where the radio guy makes them rip their clothes off and roll on mud while making animal noises?
Orson Welles is an underrated storytelling god. He was so convincing with just his voice that he convinced half the US that aliens were actually invading despite warning them. Then he literally makes the best movie ever created(Citizen Kane)in the 40s(see other movies of the era-other than westerns, some avant garde films and Bridge on the River Kwai, most were pretty bad). Oh, and he STARED in the film, giving convincing performances for the same character over a span of a lifetime(the character's lifetime)
I love that even in the 30's, the news media was twisting the narrative of storytelling to make benign pieces of art appear dangerous.
Would this be like one of the first instances of an ARG?
Remind me, what does the "G" in ARG stand for again...
Lotus
Alternate Reality Game
No Musty Demon Shall Prosper I think he was pointing out that this wasn’t a game
Sir cat
Yeah I eventually caught on to that😅
It has elements of an ARG. It will have certainly played a part in the history of them too. But I wouldn't call it one.
The first official ARG I believe was for Stephen Spielberg's movie A.I. in 2001.
Everything before the 21st century tends to be up for debate on whether or not they would be classed as an ARG. :)
Its always surreal hearing Morrisson reporting on the hindenburg, the sheer horror and distress in his loss of composure always gives me goosebumps
It's just a prank bro, there's radios right there.
Needs more likes
And there's one on the top of the wall and there's one behind the mirror and...
If I heard there was aliens I would stand on my roof waving welcome flags
Reminds me of that scene from independence day where they're on top of that building supporting the aliens and inviting them to earth, then they just get fuckin obliterated
look at that Luxury dark and Luxury canals
uh oh stinky
Time to clap alien cheeks
Some Weirdo I’m glad we had the same idea in mind
When my sister and I were kids in the 1980's, we recorded our own version of War of the Worlds. It was adorable, with the two of us doing voices for all the characters. We still have the cassette of our little Panic Broadcast.
Wasnt there news articles to prove the mass hysteria wasnt that big? Or did i hear wrong?
The hysteria was made up by news papers to discredit radio broadcast as news sources
Yup
Yeah, 1930s people weren’t that dumb
There was likely some panic here and there, but nothing like what was reported.
RadioLab did a great episode on it several years ago that talked about it and also some other, later, _War of the Worlds_ radio adaptions that also sparked various levels of hysteria, and also a segment in between that went into how much the original panic may have beem played up by newspapers to try to discredit radio. Unfortunately I'm having some trouble finding it, RadioLab's website seems to have been folded in WNYC Studio's and the page and info lost.
beta.prx.org/stories/105107 this seems to be the RadioLab broadcast, but it doesn't seem to have the bit between parts one and two where they talk about how it was overhyped (that part was not part of the live show, but added later when the person they were talking to contacted them). Either way, it is well worth a listen.
EDIT TO ADD: www.radiolab.org/story/91622-war-of-the-worlds/ this appears to be the original URL if anyone wants to check the Wayback Machine to see if they can find the full episode.
Isn't it funny how older media tries its damnest to bring down the newest medium? Think about PewDiePie and the "journalists" that have huge, veiny, pulsing hard-ons for his surströmming.

A realistic approach to a fictional story really is more terrifying than a horror film
Reality is often more terrifying than fiction. So to combine them is to create something more stunning than anything we could ever experience in our lifetime.
At this point in time, most people would just assume this was fiction. It was ahead of its time and I'd definitely would have listened to it.

I a in love with the 1930’s-thru 1940’s. It’s an incredible decade of everything being so new to people. What made people happy, sad or angry is so interesting and so different from how we respond to things today. I’m really thankful you tackled this project and truly brought us into the time period. They made shows happen with little to none of the technology that we rely on today. And the radio stations relied on the genius of people like Orson Welles. Really fantastic, thanks so much for the glimpse into the era, the people and the art of Orson Welles.
I remember reading about this even being a thing and I was so goddamn excited. This had to have been INCREDIBLE - the creativity, the talent, the believability... It's no wonder this guy ended up making Citizen Kane, he's bloody brilliant!

but i mean imagine being able to fool so many people into thinking that martians are taking over the world. his skills are impressive.
I'm in the drama club at our school, we did this audio play. I was the gunner
See I was always under the impression that the whole "mass panic" thing was a fabrication. In general, even if a lot of people fell for it, most of them didn't FLEE, they kept listening with intrigue and confusion until the show finally gave away that it was fiction. You know, like MOST shows that present themselves as real. I think I read an article about this once that the reports of people who actually PANICKED at the show was probably in the "small handful" range
I think the most probable reaction of the majority would be to look on at their television (or in the time's case, radio) as they try to make sense of what's being told to them.
Usually, the brain would think "this is impossible", preventing most to act as the cogs in their head try to work. Unless someone really saw the incident in front of them and immediately assessed the danger, they'd normally stay still in shock and or curiosity.
The Newspapers were jealous of radio stations. So, they lied and created the "War of the World Panic" story
11:07 I've listened to the full recording dozens of times, I even own a copy on CD. Even now, knowing it was a show, dozens of listens later, those several seconds of dead-air are chilling. Just fucking genius to even think about dead-air for seven or so long seconds. Because, of it was real, it would take time for the studio to realize there's a problem and cut in. It's just perfect.
Over 80 years later and newspapers are still trying to scare people away from newer forms of media 😂

my teacher had touched this subject briefly, our class had even listened to the whole broadcast, but our teacher hadn’t told us the more negative side of the story. Our teacher had only said how amazing this piece of fiction was, and how we should take acting notes from this radio broadcast.
I was deeply fascinated by the broadcast and it honestly am amazed how much it impacted the world.
Fun fact: Orson Welles’, mr War if the Worlds, last role was the main villain of the transformers 1986 movie: unicron. The character he played was a giant transformer that becomes a planet that eats other planets. So, the guy who tricked the whole nation into thinking an alien invasion was happening played a giant robot alien before his death
