Classic news broadcasting. Ripping off the original uploader without any credit and posting about it with your own ads.
Agree somewhat, but the original uploader didn't make the content. JVC did and they did credit them.
He did do the hard work of recording from an HD VHS. That's like quoting someone saying an original interpretation of an aphorism without thanking the person that interpreted it that way.
They also said “just released” when they were a year later in this “report.”

I miss seeing classy people in NYC
in general, anywhere.
Unfortunately the trend is irreversible, but a change in political parties in the State and in the oval office will help a bit if we're lucky enough
@@Mr455HO Of course you’d bring politics into it for literally zero reason.
I wore a suit to a club other day??
@@jacobwenner2545What's going on in NYC right now is a result of nothing but politics
"And the city has changed in many ways" (shows picture of two similar and very familiar towers)
reminds me of that tragedy
I forget, what happened?

I was lookin for your comment mate
What makes it look even MORE surreal, is that the footage looks CLEAR
You can see the focus and concentration on the people faces. No one knows what each other is thinking about because they’re not sharing it with the world.
These years were great. Boombox radios, little TVs, video cameras, beepers and other stuff.
0:18 - Oh what a cute girl
0:21 - OH SHIT HELL NO
Please honey don't smile
I feel horrible for this but I thought that too 😂
@Greenballoffire she's definitely British
British tourist I'm sure
The city was so much more fun back then.
How?
@@vilheard3030 If you were into kink and fetish everything you could ever want was there.
@@sem_skywalker not really,I haven't seen a modern day video of NYC yet.
@@vilheard3030 Because there were still a lot of cool kitschy shops and restaurants that weren't overly expensive because they hadn't been priced out of the city yet. This was before NYC became a Londongrad of sorts - a place for dictators and other plutocrats to park offshore money in real estate. Don't get me wrong, there were spendy apartments and brownstones, but you could make a decent wage and still survive - especially if you pooled iwth others in a multi-bedroom apartment. The city was starting to shake the crime of the 1970s and 1980s, and the subways were also rideable.

The quality and feel of this video was created at the highest level. Bravo to the person who made it.
new york in the 90’s was wonderful
I was only 6 years old this year but '93 was pretty cool. I still remember watching those kids shows like Batman TAS, Uncanny X-Men, and Masked Rider Black. Good times.
Same!
So, you're 35 now.
I was 70 and saw a lot of changes
0:40 Your man really DID get caught in 4K.
💀
@@SelenaAstrodome :/
Bring back vhs tapes and cigarette ads 😂
"Offers a look at New York in a way no one has ever seen"...well, unless you lived in New York in 1993...
Also, HD-VHS did become a thing, as D-VHS, or D-Theatre, but it was short lived, it was in the market for only 2-3 years.
I had the exact same thought
A lot of my relatives lived in NYC in 1993. I lived in NYC the first two years of my life, but that was over a decade after 1993.
I don't live in New York but I went to New York in 1993 so I have seen it, better than HD because I saw it with my own eyes
Such a shame. They could have used as a "pro only" gear.
Can you imagine how many great pieces of HQ material we would have today?
Nope, D-VHS was around much longer than that. In 2002 they actually started releasing pre-recorded 1080i movies on D-VHS, and it lasted for a few years beyond this.
I wonder if that ponytail guy has seen this video lol
Gp Singh he has he said
Zachary LeSauvage found his facebook he's seen the video lol
blackham7 link?
@@wegood563 just find the video on TH-cam and scroll down in the comments not far down he left a comment
th-cam.com/video/fT4lDU-QLUY/w-d-xo.html
0:21 DAMN! That's some teeth!
0:39 Don't blame him, she was hot.
Lol, if you look closely, he didn't even look at her when they were walking towards each other and didn't see her face!) He only looked at her from behind once more, so he couldn't know what she looked like.
What’s creepy about this video is there were less cameras back then. Now there are more you never know who is watching and if your face is out there on some obscure social media vid.
In the glory daze we called that paparazzi and no you’re wrong.
Saying that like you just now didn't watch a video about people filming other people.
@@FloorPills forming an informed opinion often requires watching or experiencing something firsthand. However, I stopped watching when I realised how unusual the content was.
People were smarter back then. Less technology, more brain power needed.
American brains were damaged after being struck by the planes, that they can't even differentiate between two genders.
> 0:18 wow she is pretty cute
> 0:21 AYYY CARAMBAAA
Haha
The teeth were eww
La Creatura...
still pretty cute tho
Such a shity taste 😝
0:21 dammmmmm
R.I.P Trade towers
wished that the NBA back in the 90s have this kind of quality
Nothing ever changes as far as crowds of people goes...!
0:39 he literally found her beautiful, there's literally NO problems in that, and if men were the only ones lol
Bro he saw the video. 30 years later he commented on that
This is absolutely incredible. This is the year I was born.
1972 I was born so I have a head start hope your still alive
it been absolutely agreed on that you are incredible.
0:40 LOL
New York looked like a nice decent place to live back then.
But some things never change, Men Will be Men
What's wrong with that?...oh yeah it's 2017/2018....
Men can't be men anymore. Come on, it's the !
Dilmuk hammad Ali *You’re
Nowadays that glance is sexual harassment and you will be shouted down and shamed by the #metoo movement for doing so! Then required to get counseling, pay restitution, forfeit your career and apologize ad infinitum.
and women will never be women again. Eat that bitch
wow i never realized how fucking annoying flashy text can be when you're trying to focus on the footage
Before the age of smartphones
I feel like after this year things started looking funky
techmoan should take a look at this
This is from Techmoan you 'know.
Unless that was a joke.
Retro Renegade yup
He's the one uploaded it
So nice video, thank you
Vhs is a classic style.
I remember a 960i-video camera and television at an electronics store as a child!
They sale little TVs and radios at the electronics store in the 90s.
Lol, I don’t see anybody looking at their smartphone and the Internet, although it existed back then, was still a novelty.
Nowadays full of Uber, missing the yellow caps, definitely an icon in americans movies
1993 the legendary year in movies,music,series.. the best year of 90,s.
I believe 1994 was much better, at least in movies.
Soo dope
That dude at the end commented under the original video. 🤣
Wheres the orginal,i red these two actually met,crazy
You know that guy that turned around is here on TH-cam. He spotted himself. Was he eyeing that girl? 😏
Lol at the last part hahaha
The comely white, Caucasian woman with the earrings would be perfect in a Salon Selectives TV spot.
Awesome 😍
Lived it and its still wierd.i was 18
0:39 That’s Robert Knupfer Who was actually an extra in homeland
At least it was still America back then...
If I can only find who this super cute woman is at 0:23
bro 💀
WOW
Yes, a heterosexual man finding a beautiful woman attractive is a problem because... reasons.
Because he was not a soyboy. And thats a bad thing in the SJW world.
My goodness..... Do these people not really know this why we all exist?
they didnt say it was a problem holy shit
people cant even make jokes without assuming its a political statement
Patriot Teen They aren't even saying its a bad thing.
anybody know who this woman is at 0:37 that's walking in the crowd? is she still alive? what's her name is and what she up to today
The man who looked back was Robert Knupfer, he saw this video
@@stephenheath8465 the woman now works as a nurse at a hospital in Manchester NH and has two children.
@@HBC101TVStudios You serious??
The woman at the end is just fire ❤
This isn't new. I watched it in 2007 on some weird proprietary VHS.
D-VHS was the VHS format that was capable of high definition.
I was 3 years old.. damn..
This camera like 2020
War.....War never changes (fallout reference).
can someone please tell me is that lady dressed up is still Alive
Scorpio Heat this wasn’t that long ago. 25 years
0:37 WOW 😍
My birth year ♥️
Best days without covid 19 as a kid.
Wow
Ah they better not change
Re: 0:21. Teeth
0:19 can anyone tell me what her name is and how she is now? do you have her instagram?
Anybody know what's the lady name at 0:38? Is she still alive
She’s over 50 years old now
why you wanna know that?
Mr. Hard body of course she is, this was only 27 years ago
still pretty young@@newingvaeona8907
That girl !!!!! Wowwwww
Hi there, this is fab! I was wondering if I could borrow a 10 Second clip from this video? - it has the aesthetic I'm going for on my social media for a small business I'm trying to start.
0:00 look to the right you can see 5 wtc’s blinds!
and Americans say us Brits have bad teeth
Deberían hacer las torres gemelas otra vez
I would also have turned to look at that woman
The text seems to be describing something from 1933, not 1993. Surreal? Hardly. Pretty dull actually.
Why is this stolen?
Oligampla it says in the video it's a JVC demo video anyone can use it
that gorgeous lady lmao
I'm pretty certain this is the only footage in existence of double breasted suits in high definition.
How is it new if it was filmed 25 years ago?
36: the girl in the skirt is hot
Twon tower at 1993 how it can be / no one notice
Fakin ripoff. Shame on you!
Am I crazy? but I´m pretty sure Nicole Kidman appears at the end
No one dresses like this anymore
0:22 ❤❤❤❤❤
Ok
What hasn't changed - the open-ended focus on a man checking out a woman, and according him no privacy (the sneaky attempt at appearing neutral, while actually eliciting outrage at this). Even back then - women "don't" check out men at all! What has changed - this has become worse, thanks to wokeness.
oh please....
You seriously think women have never checked out men? That's a typical female response, not wanting to lose their ability to ogle the way they want!
Lady at 0:24 looks dated even for 1993
Haha was thinking the same - that's such an 80s hairstyle.
Techmoan!
No one has ever seen? I'm sure there other photos and videos of the exact same locations. It's from 1993 not 1793 stop making out that it's so far in the past.
has never seen in hd... you're kidding me..
My favorite year
This is from two years earlier and it's in 2k. (Not the vevo version, unfortunately) th-cam.com/video/tGc8jL4dzao/w-d-xo.html
UNKNOWNGAM3r ahhh nirvana the staple of early 90s rock... now we got 21 pilots, ew
That's just film uploaded to 1080p. How is this 2K? The quality is only as good as the source and that source is film.
@@CeeStyleDj35mm Film can be up to 5k equivalent resolution you idiot
@@derwamper1258 you have to compare Apples to Apples. I was referring to the link in the comment. And the only person who's an idiot would be someone calling someone they don't know an idiot. So don't be that way. Cheers.

What are you talking about? Your gushing is just silly.
Por culpa de George w bush ya no están las torres gemelas
LOL She totally liked him!!!!! :)

The end 😂😂
rip
😊😊😊😊
HD isn't that impressive as everyone would like to believe. I had a 4:3 monitor with 1600x1200 resolution, years and years before HD. Which is only a little lower than HD. it's not impressive at all.
You're not impressive at all
What machines or recording equipment was available at that time that even recorded close to 1600x1200 resolution? Its like me having a 8k display in this age.
Did you have the monitor before 1998?
The attractive girl getting checkout by ponytail man was annoyed due to the unwanted attention she always received. Fast forward 30 years later, she is now in her 50's or 60's and no one, except for her loved ones and friends, even notices her. She longs for the past when she was young and beautiful, as she wished she would have appreciated those days so much more.
-New York Post
@@Swim_Jonse For its age, this was a very high quality video that was edited well.
Cringe
lol plenty get noticed
She's probably a leader in whatever field she's in by now.
New York looks old compare to Shanghai.....
lol Shanghai looks like Dubai
