My favourite was the man refusing to salute. It makes me wonder what was going through his mind and why he refused.......I'd like to think that he knew it was wrong, he hated Hitler and everything about him, and didn't want to join Hitler's army and serve under his commands.
Isn't that the crazy thing about these photos ? We have no idea of knowing what was going on in their mind. What if he was checking his mobile phone at the time and just missed the salute ???? .... (p.s. I'm aware mobile phones hadn't been invented yet, but it makes you think)

Same. I love history though sometimes I hate how I have to study the same thing for school. I got bored when my teacher was teaching about medieval times, which sucks since the medieval times were very interesting to me and I loved learning about, and my teacher took all the fun away 🥲.
depends on the teacher , I hated school but was lucky to have a great history teacher , he was 25 and just out of oxford university ,he used to take us on trips in his own time ,we had loads of fun we went to Bath ,Stonehenge and a couple of other places .

Hi Chris. Please pass along this website to all your friends and acquaintances. If we don't learn from history we are doomed to repeat it. We all learn something from these historical photos.
Glad you enjoyed it. When I was young I didn't appreciate history or what people like my grandparents went through during the war. By the time I fully understood their sacrifice and that of their generation, it was too late to say thank you. It warms my soul that this channel is reaching all ages.

Then, the others are the type who want to know how past is related to the present and future, eg. Russia and us hated eachother since..i think the cold war (?) And still do. Yes, i wrote an essay.
I think it's part of Human evolution to do so. Much of what we have, language, government structures etc. came from the Romans. The Romans learned directly from the Greeks, who were heavily influenced by the Egyptians. Most of what we and they did was built upon the pillars of the past !
0:42 Something about this simple image is so striking to me. I've seen pictures of the Mona Lisa nearly ad nauseum since birth, but to think that same painting has been through so many wars. SO MANY. Still, she survives. She will very likely have to go through more, and people will have to pack her away again just like this. Then those of us who survive will see her brought out to the light of day again. A sad life for a painting if you ask me.
Agreed, and it is sad. But how powerful is it that through the generations there exists different people willing to protect such a beautiful word of art ?
These pictures make me feel really emotional, pinpointing things to my own family in that they were either alive or not long born, an times that will simply never be again 😔
It is honestly amazing how one click and a snap has preserved the suffering and joy humanity went through during the hundred-ish years the camera was invented.

The young Hitler photo had the mustache added in. He would have been either clean shaven or had a handlebar mustache before he had to trim it after he found out the hard way that has masks don’t work with any other facial hair.
8:00 My mum told me how she went out with her dad during the night of switching from the left side to the right. I think it was about three in the morning when cars started to switch and my mum got to experience it first hand. She was seven at the time.
Hi Jeremy. Good question. Some of the photos are rare, some i thought were rare, some I found aren't as rare as first thought. I research thousands of old photos just to find a handful that I haven't seen somewhere. But its so tough the more videos I make, not to use something seen many times. I do my best but some will always be rarer than others... Theres a limit at this point to what can be rare ! Thanks for watching.

The image of Lewis Payne is so clear. He looks young and idealist.
Could be from a hundred years later.
That's exactly what I thought when I saw it - he could be a modern-day fashion model with that hair 😲😲😲
He was young he was only 21 when he was executed.
He looks like a movie star.
he WAS young and idealist. unfortunately for the side that lost
Fascinating. I wonder if future generations will feel the same way about our times.
