I was in N.Y.C. for the previous 3 major Blackouts. In 1965 I was doing my homework in the Bronx, when the lights went out. In 1977 I was at home in Washington Heights when everything went black. In 2003 I had just boarded the Downtown Number 4 train at Yankee Stadium (the last stop above ground)! The doors closed and suddenly there was a thump, then nothing. Someone heard on a radio that there was a blackout. We didn't know at the time that it covered much of the Northeastern U.S.! We were able to pry one side of a door open, and everybody got out. I went straight to a store and bought up batteries and cold drinks (it was one of the hottest days of the year). If the outage had happened just a few minutes later, we would have been stuck underground overnight! Thank you for documenting this one!

I am traveling to NYC in a couple of days and have been watching your videos for the past week to get me ready. I have to say you seem like such a genuinely good person in all of your videos. I can feel the passion you have for the city listening to your narrating. Just wanted to say thanks, and keep them coming as I will continue to watch even after I've returned home and have no plans to return to the city for a while.
Dude you're like my favorite. Always have a video I want to see or need info around that area. You get them out fast too. Overworked and underappreciated. Thanks as always!!!!!
I'm sorry I thought I was already subbed but anyway I just subbed....Actionkid videos should have a hell of alot more views....I stumbled upon a video yesterday from another youtuber & I started going through his video page & his footage is often shaky & not in 1080p but most of the time its 720p & in & out of focus.....this punk had like 720k & 890k views on alot of his videos that were posted less than 2 months ago.....sometimes I think this generation is crazy.
@@solo401_ your right, I feel like the channel I'm talking about should have the amount of views I see under Actionkid videos & Actionkid should have his numbers....Now I'm a dragracing fan but I gotta admit that this particular guy I'm referring to content is not that great & his views blow all other dragracing channels out the water.....I mean he has videos that are close to 1 million that have not been up to long.....I almost feel that his channel is somehow mixed up with another channel .....maybe the algorithms of TH-cam.....
People like you make the difference. It's incredible to have this register few hours after the events. It's great and thanks a lot! The subway looked scary!!!!
Hi ActionKid, I don't think anyone can question the successful ACTION you took by starting this channel. It is a success to all who see it and you offer us the glimpses that we can't experience ourselves. I look forward to your further future actions. Broadway is a place filled with very broad road ways and is famous for it's theater creations. I hope extensively to see it one day myself. Thank you for the outstanding upload.
You're most dramatic vid yet. Everything else was travelogue; this documented a minor disaster; and Mantattenhenge on the same day. Nice work. I love your channel.
Whenever there is a power cut I think that it is just a little reminder of the real world, I mean there have been many more generations of human beings who have lived lives without the technology we tend to take for granted nowadays. I am glad though that the power was restored and I hope that not too many people suffered because of the outage.
Hah, you should come to my country. We get power outages at least once a week XD last month there was an outage four times in one day. And that makes me sad...
Man your channel is one of a kind.Very real & unique.Im suprised that you haven't reached a million subs yet.Just amazing how dedicated you are to showing New York to the world.I have never been to New York but i already feel like i been Sseveral times through your weekly videos.Mayor of that city should give you the keys to the city.Bless up man
There has even been a few Earthquakes in Australia recently, just a few hours ago there was one of about 6.6 magnitude of the coast of Western Australia.
Go ActionKid! You're like a 1-man news crew and you jumped right on the story. And thank you for providing my first a.m belly laugh @ 5:12 at that pedestrian you spooked with the camera!!!
@Actionkid I'm a NYC resident and I find your videos very relaxing. You can't imagined what time and energy you 've saved me from window/people watching. 😆. Great 1
Makes you appreciate the things you take for granted every day.So glad the power is back on as I type this from CA.We've had blackouts many times and they're not fun.But better than quakes! Thanks again for a great "at the scene" video.Take care,ActionKid!
Wouldn't want to have been stuck in any elevator during a blackout; " I survived "the '65, '77 and 2003 NYC blackouts ( 1977 was a MAJOR one).. truth be told.. Actionkid did a fine job here documenting important news ...Keep up the great work.
@@ActionKid During the '77 blackout, I remember walking from 2 WTC ( where i worked) all the way up Broadway to near 200th St , where i lived, in the dark.. Needless to say, i was a bit scared...
I live in France in a small village, between midnight and 6am they turn the street lights off to save power (like all maybe 10 of them) and then on top of that here is France it is usual to have shutters that you close as well after your windows.I would not like to walk around my house,! This really shows us though that whatever fancy electrical stuff you have, once the power goes out, its goodnight. Manhattanhenge was fab!
I saw this video a few months for the first time and today, Sunday October 20 for the second time. A great video and a awesome final shot of Manhattan henge. Go on Action Kid. I loved your videos.
Double Wow, I have been to times Square many times but never seen it so crowded & with a power cut Fasinating thanks for doing this walk even thou this was last year I never got the link on this only just today June 18th 2020 I bet its Empty Now! Great work Kenneth 😊😎😎☕🗽👍🙂🌟🗽
Such a fascinating video. I think one of my favourites. Great to see NY in such a different way, although i know the lack of power was not ideal haha. Love that you showed us the dark subway, something you'd never usually see in that way. I was worried people would fall off the platform!
My daughter and I were in town for the week and unfortunately we were there for the blackout. Our hotel room was on the 16th floor-thank goodness we did not get stuck in the elevator -a lot of guests did and were in there for hours. I was really impressed that most people behaved and helped others out…but I hope that I never have to encounter another blackout ever again-we sure are spoiled with electricity !!
Hey Bodie you made history because a year later these pictures were no longer there you are doing a very good job which I appreciate that I've been looking at for a few years and to this day I prefer to look at the older pictures because of this difficult situation that has been going on for years I noticed personally that the last few years were simply the best. Nevertheless, I wish that you continue in the hope that I will also watch the new videos.
Look at all the people from the underground that were forced to surface and walk to their destination. Personally, I think it's rather interesting to observe how "normal people" react when one aspect of their life is removed. The subway or elevator are two places I wouldn't want to be when NYC loses power regardless of the duration. It's really amazing to see how calm all the curious people are during the electric grid disruption. If this outage would have lasted more than half a day, no doubt all chaos would ensue. Whats more amazing is this power outage comes 42 years to the day after the great blackout of 1977 when ALL of New York was in the dark. Lights or no lights, 👍🏼to all the people that are still drawn to Times Square! We ❤️ you NYC! Shoutout to Action Kid for this incredible insider view of "Manhattan in Mayhem".
Ak - Another great video. Who knew? You just take things as they come and go with the flow. For some people a power outage charges their battery (no pun intended here), and it's time to party, and for others, they just want to get where they're going. But, yeah, I can imagine people getting stuck on an elevator; especially if they're by themselves. What must be going through their mind? The thing about something like this is, all the fallout just has this trickle down affect, and whether it's a business or whatever, it takes them awhile before they get their marbles lined up again. Anyway, thanks for these very informative and at times entertaining videos. You're doing a great service for the city of NY and everyone who has the ability to watch them. Over and out.
This blackout struck exact to the date 42 years ago on July 13, 1977. Only thing back then the blackout continued on July 14. History has a way of repeating itself but not to that devastating extent. "Those were the days my friend" as the song says.
Good morning to you kid thank you so much for taking a grand to do Times Square at all the different having him some streets and everything does the Avenues I have never been when I come to New York I'm not going to take you to come to that area but I'll be going through other areas I will be busy as well okay so in the meantime thank you so much for your cooperation it was a lovely time and have yourself a good week and we look forward to see you soon
I was around 42 years ago and a huge lightning bolt just north of the city struck all the power lines leading from upstate. Very strange for this to happen when the weather is so calm and delightful. ConEd still says they don't know.
This video is better than any news report of the black out. Gives a great overview of how the blackout affected that section of Manhattan. ActionKid on the scene! Interesting that half of Times Square had power.
@@ActionKid Think about it and do some investigating. 42nd street had half lit and half dark, (only street like that)? 42 years to the day that the outage in 1977 occurred, and I was told 42,000 lost power. Not coincidence obviously. I was told that these are only a few of the 42 references. Why 42 and what are the other ones?
10:05.....seeing that southbound #3 train that tried to coast by 66th St.....as a retired motorman.....I'm not sure if I would even try to coast further.....if you get stuck.... you'll have people stuck in dark tunnels......might have been better to stop adjacent to the station.....easier to evacuate if necessary.....
A little tip, if you find yourself without power and happen to be near a Starbucks, from my personal experience they will comp your coffee since most of them I have been at at least didn’t have back up power.
Two days before 4th of July part of Fort Lauderdale Beach has a power outage. And it affected the Resort I was in Fort Lauderdale. It was a day without power and it was very hot. And yesterday had power outage in a part of NW of Washington DC.
In no way Chicago compares to this city...No Freaking way!! This is for all you Chicago obsessed people on TH-cam who compares Chicago a city with 2.7 million people to NYC that have over 8 million!! But more than that NYC is a true mega city with so much packed into it if you're someone who love cities NYC is the virtual toyland of Cities!!!
You need to get a solar recharger for your phone, one that you can clip to your backpack so your phone can continuously be charged as you walk around..
I remember a power outage in NYC back when I lived there that was from The World Trade Center all the way to 42nd street. I had to walk in the pouring rain that entire distance to finally get to a subway with power at 42nd street. It sucked because all the buses and cabs were taken and the traffic lights were out so traffic got stuck all over the city. It was not a fun experience.
Down here in Panama City fl. we know about power outages. The hurricane last oct. I lost power for 3 almost 4 weeks. It was like a sauna. 70% of trees down. But NY with all the banks and elevators??? Being stuck in those would not be fun. Be safe Kenneth.
Awesome, beautiful place. Im from brazil and i want to travel to NYC, I study english here, im not very good in it, but I'll be better, I'm just able to travel there.

The action kid takes you where the action is foresaking his safety to bring us the blackout ! Thanks for the report !
You're welcome!
Action Kid is an intrepid and daring soul! 🇺🇸
When this happens sometimes, we understand the importance of electricity and energy.
If the environ"Mental" nuts had their way they'd want this everyday and without viable alternatives either. So antihuman.
Miss Tesla yet? We could have have it for free.
Curry & Coffee I agree with you.
Nah we just see how much we rely on that stuff now.
yep! we take it for granted, but it literally affords us ALL of life's modern conveniences.

Our man on the scene. I was living on W. 11th Street in the Village during the blackout of 1977. Darkness, candlelight and mayhem!
Wow that must have been something!
insane that this happened on 42nd anniversary of 1977!
This proves the importance of electricity, the best human invention that w/o it, we've got nothing!
Without electricity we'd all wake and sleep according to the Sun and we'd all be healthier.

Looks like some places still got power, back up system?
It was a partial blackout, not a complete blackout
Some of the larger buildings are bound to have big diesel generators in the basement.
Great walkabout! Thanks for posting so quickly.
Thanks!
It’s made the news down under, thought of you straight away mate
One of the greatest shots ever . Way to go kid .

Europe has most power lines underground. Thats why there is hardly any power outage. They do but not as much as here, something to think about.

great. There is no panic. (I hear that people are trapped in the elevator) (Japan)
GoodKillTubeHard 10.0 ~ Imagine being pregnant and in labor while stuck in an elevator full of people. 😳
10:05.....seeing that southbound #3 train that tried to coast by 66th St.....as a retired motorman.....I'm not sure if I would even try to coast further.....if you get stuck.... you'll have people stuck in dark tunnels......might have been better to stop adjacent to the station.....easier to evacuate if necessary.....
Good point. I was wondering how that #3 train was still running if there was no power. The trains can still coast to the next station?
I saw your video. Excellent, brilliant and
These kind of events show us how vulnerable we are ...
A little tip, if you find yourself without power and happen to be near a Starbucks, from my personal experience they will comp your coffee since most of them I have been at at least didn’t have back up power.
Two days before 4th of July part of Fort Lauderdale Beach has a power outage. And it affected the Resort I was in Fort Lauderdale. It was a day without power and it was very hot. And yesterday had power outage in a part of NW of Washington DC.
Wow that’s pretty crazy

In no way Chicago compares to this city...No Freaking way!!
This is for all you Chicago obsessed people on TH-cam who compares Chicago a city with 2.7 million people to NYC that have over 8 million!!
But more than that NYC is a true mega city with so much packed into it if you're someone who love cities NYC is the virtual toyland of Cities!!!
40 degrees Celsius. You are a great guide.
You need to get a solar recharger for your phone, one that you can clip to your backpack so your phone can continuously be charged as you walk around..
Thanks for the video Brother.
I remember a power outage in NYC back when I lived there that was from The World Trade Center all the way to 42nd street. I had to walk in the pouring rain that entire distance to finally get to a subway with power at 42nd street. It sucked because all the buses and cabs were taken and the traffic lights were out so traffic got stuck all over the city. It was not a fun experience.
Wow! I could imagine how crazy that must have been.
In Nashville, we just grab some candles and hit the front porch.
Down here in Panama City fl. we know about power outages. The hurricane last oct. I lost power for 3 almost 4 weeks. It was like a sauna. 70% of trees down. But NY with all the banks and elevators??? Being stuck in those would not be fun. Be safe Kenneth.
Thank you for your wishes!
I heard there was a power outage over the weekend including the subway system as well!
so the LInkNYC kiosks AD screens are powered off the mains but the tablet part you use to call people with still works but displays some message
Great weather 4 a walk btw
ActionKid on the scene. Woohoo!
Great job on your video. I would have loved to see what happened around 2 hours into the blackout.
