It's hard to move one when you keep on memories. In my country when someone dies, we give away at funeral some things, kind of gifts like mugs, plates, curly bread, candies, a symbolic gesture to provoke "letting it go", to move forward.
People may come and go, but when their voice and faces are recorded, they live forever. I hope you treasure those films with great care, surviving a child is the worst kind of loss one can endure.
Buzzfeed has a lot of great content (and yes, a lot of nonpolitical content). There's different sections to Buzzfeed. It's all under the same name, but they're isolated part that work by themselves. For example, their research team they hired has been stellar, but their name Buzzfeed hurts them in some ways. I think Buzzfeed hired them specifically to help their reputation. It's working, just slowly.
I could be in the background in that film. I was visiting my cousins in Brooklyn for first time in 1964. I went to the World Fair four times in the two weeks I was there. It was a wonderful experience for a 20 year old on his first visit to America coming from Ireland. I have lots of photos from that visit but no film. It must have been thrilling for your family to see the old film. Well done.
that's the precious thing about camera that everybody todays forgot. Now everybody have their own camera that could both record and shot and we became a self obsessed generation, back then having a video camera is a blessing, not everybody could have that, and even to develop and look at the result, it cost more money, buying the film again cost you more, that's why I didn't wonder why they only use it once and never use it again
That place is called Flushing Meadows. It's a Park in Queens NYC nowadays. And many of the buildings that were built for the 1963 World Fair are still there today.
Gabrielle X Oh calm down 😂 it’s not objectifying! It’s appreciating. Many women react the same way when they see their husband in a tight t-shirt looking young and buff. How come when a husband reacts that way to their wife it’s “objectifying” but when a wife reacts that way to a husband nobody blinks an eyelid? Everybody loves to be offended these days, so much so that you can’t even appreciate a sweet moment of an old man reacting to seeing his late wife when she was in her hay day for the first time in decades
Gabrielle X I don’t need to take my own advice, I’m not offended at all I’m laughing at the ridiculousness of what I just read 😂 I know for a fact that people can be objectified but my point is that this wasn’t a case of that and claiming this to be objectification takes away from actual cases of it. Also you literally said “you can still objectify your wife” clearly implying that you were talking about the guy saying “oh yeah” to seeing his young wife so shush 🙄
Wagwan It’s Bonbon actually I said that in response to the guy that said “how lmao it’s his wife”, because her being his wife doesn’t change the fact that he could still have objectified her and the same goes to any other relationship. I never implied or claimed that he in particular was acting that way, just corrected the previous comment and even said that’s taking it a bit far. You’re comment blew what I said completely out of proportion, probably due to your own ignorance, bringing in being offended over everything; so yes I stand by my original comment and you should take from your own advice.
Definitely brought a tear to my eye! Best video yall have put out in a while! And AWESOME job on the sound effects added to the film, they complimented it beautifully....I dare say, you're grandma would have been very proud of you, sweetheart. 💕💕
I'm an ESL teacher to Japanese, and one of my students also found 8mm films his father owned. He wanted to "watch the pictures" on the film, so he went to a photo shop, unfortunately, the professionals couldn't help him. But he was very determined to see the motion picture, so he manually developed it (he took a photo of each small film, then resized it on some photo editing app, onerous work!). For months we talked about his progress... I'll send this video to him!
My mother found an old reel in my grandmother's house when she passed away. It was of my mum and dad in the sixties. My dad died when I was 6 in the seventies so I don't really remember anything of him. So it was amazing and surreal when my mum got it developed to see him and my mum taking a summer stroll so youthful and happy. 🙂 I'd only ever seen pictures of him.
@Melinda Pelfrey Oh I'm so sorry to hear that Melinda. My dad died jogging at 38. His lung collapsed and he eventually had a heart attack and died. Seeing yourself with your dad must've been so emotional for you. May we all one day reunite with our loved ones! ☺
Isn’t time a strange thing? It seems so sad that we lose everything. Especially those so close to us. So much energy and life just goes away, as far as we know.... I have faith, but of course I really do hope there is something after this... there MUST be. What a crime if there isn’t. It would be so tragic.
Am I the only one who checked channel name? the content was too good to be on BuzzFeed channel. We got used to watching never I have ever blah blah edition.
This brought happy tears. I'm all about memories, especially capturing the moments make it so special. Glad you were able to develop the film for yourself and your family.
Hi from New Zealand, "The door of the camera dop off" that was your Grandmother wanting you to develop the film. Thank you for sharing your family history with the world👍
my great grandfather was taken to gulag during ww2 and was forced to work in camps in siberia. a few months after the war ended he managed to get back home in Hungary. but he was changed forever. he developed some sort of phobia for cold, he always wore winter caps, coat and thick clothing even during hot summer days, he was terrified of the winter and wanted to move to a warmer country. all he did all day was chop wood and store them in a storage room his house and during winter he constantly put wood in the fireplace, sometime he would wake up in the middle of the night just to put some wood in the fireplace. when he died we got everything he owned including his house because he decided to give it to us. as we explored the house we found a basement, which was full of fire wood and it had numerous antiquities from ww2 and ww1 as he survived both wars, and even some objects that dated back to the 19th century as the year was written on them. the biggest find was a family tree that showed our bloodline back to 5 generations. i the storage room and garage had some much fire wood that we used it for 17 years and there still is plenty of it left. i could never personally talk to my great grandfather as i was barely 2 years old when he died, which i really regret because i think he could have teached me some amazing stories
When u go through something traumatic like being freezing for ages it's no wonder that the mind changes so that it ensures the body will never be cold again.
@@mytube0969 ...So you do have to send the film cartridge away to be developed? I have one 35mm cartridge that needs to be developed, but I'm hesitant to send it off, because I'm afraid something might happen to it, and all would be lost then. Who did you send it to to develop it, please? Thank you.
My parents died in the nineties. So not long ago, but we were poor and didn't have a video camera. Sadly they both passed away when I was young. A few years ago my cousin gathered us all around the TV for Christmas. There was a video with everyone, including my parents at her brother's birthday party 20 years ago at her grandparents house. She just stumbled across it. My dad and his sense of humor on full display, my mom and her timeless beauty. I cried then, and I cry now as I type this. There I nothing more special than getting to see those who we have lost again, even if it's just in a video.
I used to develop film rolls back in highschool in Photography Class just like this ☺ It brings back so many great memories in the dark room 💖 It made me love the developer smell even though to many it smelled horrendous and strong haha
so cool... its why I don't understand why some people complain when someone takes pictures at a wedding, some travels, food, or just themselves being random. one day you'll forget those or be gone, no one will know bc you want to cherish your "memories" or "in the moment". memories fade and things happen... a picture stays for a long time.
Nobody will know what a sd-card is in some years. Kids nowdays don't even know what a cd or dvd is. Then bring up vinyl and cassette tapes.. They have no clue.
I almost said " me" then remembered my grandpa giving me a wood box with a Bible in it, almost 5 years later after he'd passed I was looking thru it for first time and found $7,754 I'm not sure why the odd amount or if on purpose.
Who else couldn’t resist posting a question/comment, slanted towards a put down? Just you? I doubt it, I’m not going to go read through all the comments but just so you know...it’s getting so so old! Even my 3 year old granddaughter knows that being kind is way cooler.
I would of checked immediately, sounds like grandma's ghost got tired of waiting for someone to check the camera so she popped off the door to the flim
*Side of a camera, that stand for years on the same place, randomly pops open Him: "Oh that's cool, doesn't creepy at all. Let's try to develop the film I found inside of it!"
My dad left me his old film reels along with the old camera and they were old but developed. Growing up, at the beginning of summer we'd all get together and watch them. Very old cartoons and also he recorded us, he was old school. There was videos of ham when he was little and my mother and she was younger and of their parents and of my brothers and sisters who are passed away What I would give to have all that back as someone broke into our house one year and stole all of it along with dad's coin collection. My whole family has been go been gone for years and I pray and put out in the universe that someone drop them off on my doorstep or I find them. 10 years I've been looking. The only thing that is priceless to me is the people on those film reels that I will never see again on this Earth. And that is the only thing I had left of my family and not one other thing. These are priceless❤💔❤🙏
That's horrible that somebody would have no heart to do that. Even if they didn't know what they stole in the first place, they should have given it back as soon as they realized it!
NEVER POUR FIXER INTO A SINK IT WILL POLUTE THE WATER AND YOU WILL BE FINED. I CANT EXPRESS THIS ENOUGH. Pour it back into the container you got it from. Great video but please be sure to be careful with harmful chemicals and pouring into the pipes some of them can’t get filtered out of the water and definitely shouldn’t be consumed
@@HeniHenii Nope...I'm in Prince Albert. I was thinking the film was either sent to Saskatoon or Regina, since they both have universities. I'd be shocked if it was Swift Current or Moose Jaw. By the way hope your enjoying our balmy minus 20 below zero weather today, compared to yesterday's minus 50 below zero.
It's like your grandmother reaching out to say hello to everyone in the family. It's funny how something we do during the course of our lives, turns into a valued gem after we're gone.
You’re a blessing to your family! That was very touching! How nice of you, and patient, to take the time and energy to bring this memory back to those who were in the film, and for other loved ones to share it with them, altogether! Beautiful family!
Cute so so, wholesome country style, wheat fields fixing wood fences , redoing horses shoes( hoofs ) YES he is nice interesting and intelligent too. I'll take 2 please one for my sister.
Oh, look: yet another unoriginal, oft repeated, done to death, Surprised Pikachu Face comment... Me: Surprised Pikachu Face Dammit. I'm caught in a feedback loop. Surprised Pikachu Face Please help.
what the film is stored on is called a "safety spool" designed to be loaded in daylight. Basically because the metal spool is light-proof, and the film itself is light-proof, only the unwound stuff round the edges is exposed to light. edit: more commonly called a "daylight spool" which i guess backs up my point lol
what an amazing story.. a tear-jerker even for a hardened 40 year old dude.... this man is BLESSED to have such a large family with so many generations all together still... Im 40 and have no surviving family AT ALL since 2017 besides my two daughters, and seeing this makes me feel extremely unfortunate in life... but this video has prompted me to put salvaging my dads old projector slides from storage on the top of my TO-DO list... from what I remember, they’re all photos from when he was deployed to Europe during the Vietnam War era... might be nice to sit down with my girls and have our own leap into the past together... it’s the little things...
as an advanced film photo student, the process of developing 35mm black and white film if you would care to know is 280ml per roll of water mixed with 10oz of developed per roll reel, then 10 mins with agitation for 30s then 5s every 30s, then you pour this out and do a stop bath with 68f water for 30s pour it out, then do fixer (20oz double for two reels so on) 5mins 30s agitation then 5s every 30s, then pour this back into the fixer counter as you want to save it. after this do hypo clear (20oz per reel) 2mins 30s then 5s every 30s pour it back into the container to save it, then you do a final wash with 68-75f water and leave it running into the container for 5mins then pour this out and do photo flow by putting the reel into it for 10s to 30s. hopefully, this helps anyone who needs it! :)
That's... a good starting platform yes but there are chemical temperature factors (specifically developer temperature), the film's actual speed and then if there's any push/pull exposure for the roll and sometimes the physical age of the film to be considered too. Also, use actual stop bath, not water, between the dev and fix. 👍
I am a graduated student, and you are wrong. first thing you do is wash your mouth for 30 seconds with mouthwash, spit it into the film. open a beer, drink half and pour the rest of it on the film, and there you go.
luke gooden for black and white 35mm this is the process, I didn’t explain for color since it’s a little hard to explain due to there being different times extra steps and other things
I don't comment on videos often. However, watching the footage of your grandmother at the fair made me cry. There are not a lot of things that make me cry. Thank you for sharing this happy moment with all of us.
Oh wow... this is so special. I really really loved your grandpa's facial expression. He was momentarily pulled back to that time in his life. Never ever let this film go to waste... if possible, save it for your children one day.
my grandmother gave me her house before she died and i found a whole stash of films in the attic. I spent a lot of money in developing them turns out it was just porn.
What an amazing find! I'm sure your family was overwhelmed by your work and they'll be forever grateful you shared it with them. Excellent job. Well done. XX
The ending was so beautiful. The entire video felt like it was pretty technical and towards the end it got me so emotional. We have definitely lost the touch to appreciate moments as everything and anything is available to be filmed on our phones, back then it was just so special. Great video!
This made me so emotional. Think of all the incredible memories that are captured on undeveloped film and lost to time. Please please please help support your local lab keep film alive
Skipped to the end 7:09 , it was a blurry picture that lasted about 10 seconds. You could see the disappointment his family's face. They were like, "this is it? Uh good job lad, we'll hang you're picture on the fridge..." Even the Canadian film developer seemed like he was laughing at the poor chump.
@@laserr10000000 Its not digital you cant rewind and watch it before developing. You can only watch footage from film cameras after developing the film. There is physically no way that family had seen the footage before unless you mean they refilmed the reveal to the family for this video.
I was born in 1964, that’s why I was eagerly interested in watching this clip . Am happily impress 😀 Thank you for sharing and well done all the patiences to finally be able to see this images , beautiful and good job :)
Wow I loved the ending how the new footage transitions to the old it's a bit awe inspiring that a point in time can be preserved like this it's like going back in time literally and stuff like this sometimes makes you think about our exsistance in general. Sometimes I feel Intelligent beings are the concience of our universe
Abhishek Sengupta Entirely different process. You cannot process Kodachrome in E6 you won’t get anything. Only way of processing it these days is in black and white. In a nutshell the colour dyes in Kodachrome are added during the end of the process from memory. It used a process called K-14 it essentially had the same make up as black and white film. Unlike E6 which had the colour dye couplers already in the film.
Lol I did a report way back in elementary school (1993 or 94) in Kansas on Saskatchewan, read some book about a boy (I can't remember anything about it though haha.)
Rolling Vehicles..I am from Kansas City, Missouri..and most USAers don't know KC exists..except in Kansas perhaps!..I was taught some information about the Canadian provinces in grade school..we were taught we had a great neighbor to the north..we were taught we invaded Canada twice in 50 years..and were defeated both times...(albeit by the British)....Regina is your capital (some form of the regal title of Queen Victoria)..Saskatoon is your largest city..your population is about 1.1 million. Many of us in the U.S. love Canada!
I think your grandma opened the camera for you guys to experience this awesome moment. Very cool and touching video. God bless you. This was an awesome experience watching. 👍🏻
I'm guessing back then people wouldn't film *personal* videos because at the end of the day it HAD to go through developing and someone would see it you know. Especially because as far az i know you needed to send the footage to the factory to have it developed.
My grandmother is still living, born in 1940, 78 years old. We watch a lot of old films her mother gave her. My grandfather, her husband, passed away from lung cancer. He was a coal miner. My family goes waaaaay back.
That is amazing!!! What a beautiful surprise to find film in the camera...I’m so glad you were able to salvage it and share the experience of viewing it with your family.
I can only imagine how much this meant to your grandfather, seeing his beautiful young wife and his children having fun. 😀
I kinda don't keep things like these.
It would only make it worse.
Knowing that _it was_ , and it will never be.. :(

so cool... its why I don't understand why some people complain when someone takes pictures at a wedding, some travels, food, or just themselves being random. one day you'll forget those or be gone, no one will know bc you want to cherish your "memories" or "in the moment". memories fade and things happen... a picture stays for a long time.
Nihilists don't care about such things.
Isn't that kind of a plot point in "One Hour Photo" (2002)
Nobody will know what a sd-card is in some years. Kids nowdays don't even know what a cd or dvd is. Then bring up vinyl and cassette tapes.. They have no clue.
@@kungpuk5186 alot of cameras don't use sd cards. The d5 can't use them. Only xqd and cfexpress
kung puk so sad
Who else would have checked for film as soon as they got the camera instead of waiting over a decade? 😂
I almost said " me" then remembered my grandpa giving me a wood box with a Bible in it, almost 5 years later after he'd passed I was looking thru it for first time and found $7,754 I'm not sure why the odd amount or if on purpose.
Who else couldn’t resist posting a question/comment, slanted towards a put down? Just you? I doubt it, I’m not going to go read through all the comments but just so you know...it’s getting so so old! Even my 3 year old granddaughter knows that being kind is way cooler.
@@If6turnsouttobe9 maybe you weren't supposed to look inside the bible at the time x
I would of checked immediately, sounds like grandma's ghost got tired of waiting for someone to check the camera so she popped off the door to the flim
Yep, it’s the first thing I would have done because I’d want to see if the camera worked.

Nope. I want to see the whole story and not just skip to the end.
My dad left me his old film reels along with the old camera and they were old but developed. Growing up, at the beginning of summer we'd all get together and watch them. Very old cartoons and also he recorded us, he was old school. There was videos of ham when he was little and my mother and she was younger and of their parents and of my brothers and sisters who are passed away
What I would give to have all that back as someone broke into our house one year and stole all of it along with dad's coin collection. My whole family has been go been gone for years and I pray and put out in the universe that someone drop them off on my doorstep or I find them. 10 years I've been looking. The only thing that is priceless to me is the people on those film reels that I will never see again on this Earth. And that is the only thing I had left of my family and not one other thing. These are priceless❤💔❤🙏
I am so sad to hear that terrible news. Try hold those memories in your heart. No one can take those away from you.
God will bless you and you will have your memories again 🙏
That's horrible that somebody would have no heart to do that. Even if they didn't know what they stole in the first place, they should have given it back as soon as they realized it!
This was actually a good video. The team behind this did a great job!
Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing this on TH-cam!
NEVER POUR FIXER INTO A SINK IT WILL POLUTE THE WATER AND YOU WILL BE FINED. I CANT EXPRESS THIS ENOUGH. Pour it back into the container you got it from. Great video but please be sure to be careful with harmful chemicals and pouring into the pipes some of them can’t get filtered out of the water and definitely shouldn’t be consumed
Thanks for bringing this point up! Buzzfeed should have been more eco-conscious, at least in their editing to make note of it in the video.
Up
But it wasn’t real fixer, it was coffee and vitamins
Caffenol is simply a developer. You still have to use a standard fixer with it. The developer can go down the sink. The fixer can't.
I highly doubt they're going to send someone in the sewer to trace back some chemicals That No One Ever Knows got poured down there

Never allow a regret be something you didn’t do.
This is a really great video! My dad actually works at Film Rescue.
That seems like such a cool job!
you think the camera popped itself out? think again.
God Bless
Kids might be playing around and bumped on it and fell. Then they didnt tell dad. 😂
Sounds like me days ago
Could have fell on the side and then popped open
Kate Sweeney or his grandma opened it 🤯
That does sound a bit....spooky. No offence to any one
It's like your grandmother reaching out to say hello to everyone in the family. It's funny how something we do during the course of our lives, turns into a valued gem after we're gone.
You’re a blessing to your family! That was very touching! How nice of you, and patient, to take the time and energy to bring this memory back to those who were in the film, and for other loved ones to share it with them, altogether! Beautiful family!
Really cool! Glad Canada had a helping hand in the project.
US will help too, if you say that it may be child porn :P

Tyler Eaton that’s such a weird thing to say
Your lost loved one opened that camera to bring you all together. Cool
Good Luck what a beautiful thought
I’m surprised he didn’t totally ruin the film by exposing it before it was developed
what the film is stored on is called a "safety spool" designed to be loaded in daylight. Basically because the metal spool is light-proof, and the film itself is light-proof, only the unwound stuff round the edges is exposed to light.
edit: more commonly called a "daylight spool" which i guess backs up my point lol
what an amazing story.. a tear-jerker even for a hardened 40 year old dude.... this man is BLESSED to have such a large family with so many generations all together still... Im 40 and have no surviving family AT ALL since 2017 besides my two daughters, and seeing this makes me feel extremely unfortunate in life...
but this video has prompted me to put salvaging my dads old projector slides from storage on the top of my TO-DO list... from what I remember, they’re all photos from when he was deployed to Europe during the Vietnam War era...
might be nice to sit down with my girls and have our own leap into the past together...
it’s the little things...
Omg! Do it!
Get one of those carousel projectors, they're wonderful. That would be an awesome family project.
now THATS a quality youtube video
Pun intended
as an advanced film photo student, the process of developing 35mm black and white film if you would care to know is 280ml per roll of water mixed with 10oz of developed per roll reel, then 10 mins with agitation for 30s then 5s every 30s, then you pour this out and do a stop bath with 68f water for 30s pour it out, then do fixer (20oz double for two reels so on) 5mins 30s agitation then 5s every 30s, then pour this back into the fixer counter as you want to save it. after this do hypo clear (20oz per reel) 2mins 30s then 5s every 30s pour it back into the container to save it, then you do a final wash with 68-75f water and leave it running into the container for 5mins then pour this out and do photo flow by putting the reel into it for 10s to 30s. hopefully, this helps anyone who needs it! :)
That's... a good starting platform yes but there are chemical temperature factors (specifically developer temperature), the film's actual speed and then if there's any push/pull exposure for the roll and sometimes the physical age of the film to be considered too. Also, use actual stop bath, not water, between the dev and fix. 👍
This is chemistry, don’t mix it with the imperial system please.
I am a graduated student, and you are wrong. first thing you do is wash your mouth for 30 seconds with mouthwash, spit it into the film. open a beer, drink half and pour the rest of it on the film, and there you go.
But don’t you think that different developers will have different dev times 😂
luke gooden for black and white 35mm this is the process, I didn’t explain for color since it’s a little hard to explain due to there being different times extra steps and other things
Ok, this is prob the only good BuzzFeed video

Good, quality content from BuzzFeed? Im kinda shocked, but im liking it. Hopefully this continues.
Yes, well even BuzzFeed screws up once in a while and produces something useful.

Eveyone else: _WTF IS THIS_

Well they copied this idea from another project someone made but sure
@@m0Smayne really who did they copy from this time
Oh wow... this is so special.
I really really loved your grandpa's facial expression. He was momentarily pulled back to that time in his life.
Never ever let this film go to waste... if possible, save it for your children one day.
my grandmother gave me her house before she died and i found a whole stash of films in the attic. I spent a lot of money in developing them turns out it was just porn.

Excellent job. Well done. XX
The ending was so beautiful. The entire video felt like it was pretty technical and towards the end it got me so emotional.
We have definitely lost the touch to appreciate moments as everything and anything is available to be filmed on our phones, back then it was just so special.
Great video!
This is genuinely amazing, I'm so glad you were able to help with developing it, I can't imagine how heartbreaking it'd be to have lost that
This made me so emotional. Think of all the incredible memories that are captured on undeveloped film and lost to time. Please please please help support your local lab keep film alive
Well I just found a roll of undeveloped film in my grandfather's old film camera. Oh boy...
Hmmm. Could it show the opening of the New York City subway on October 27, 1904? 😊

Tbh the family didn't seem too thrilled about it..
You saw like 30 seconds of them lol and they're behind a camera..
Skipped to the end 7:09 , it was a blurry picture that lasted about 10 seconds. You could see the disappointment his family's face. They were like, "this is it? Uh good job lad, we'll hang you're picture on the fridge..." Even the Canadian film developer seemed like he was laughing at the poor chump.
I guess they saw it already prior
@@laserr10000000 Its not digital you cant rewind and watch it before developing. You can only watch footage from film cameras after developing the film. There is physically no way that family had seen the footage before unless you mean they refilmed the reveal to the family for this video.
Well, because they lived it maybe, but it was a good throwback
I was born in 1964, that’s why I was eagerly interested in watching this clip .
Am happily impress 😀
Thank you for sharing and well done all the patiences to finally be able to see this images , beautiful and good job :)

Wow I loved the ending how the new footage transitions to the old it's a bit awe inspiring that a point in time can be preserved like this it's like going back in time literally and stuff like this sometimes makes you think about our exsistance in general.

It's Kodachrome. Kodak no longer makes the necessary chemicals.
Vincent Fitzpatrick they could have crossprocessed it in e6 chemistry..
Abhishek Sengupta Entirely different process. You cannot process Kodachrome in E6 you won’t get anything. Only way of processing it these days is in black and white. In a nutshell the colour dyes in Kodachrome are added during the end of the process from memory. It used a process called K-14 it essentially had the same make up as black and white film. Unlike E6 which had the colour dye couplers already in the film.
I had a similar experience. I’m glad u went through so much to get so little - it meant the world to your family. That was awesome. Well done.

I got goosebumps when he said Saskatchewan, Canada. Cause I'm from there! And it feels weird when an American knows Saskatchewan exist! Haha
Lol I did a report way back in elementary school (1993 or 94) in Kansas on Saskatchewan, read some book about a boy (I can't remember anything about it though haha.)
Rolling Vehicles..I am from Kansas City, Missouri..and most USAers don't know KC exists..except in Kansas perhaps!..I was taught some information about the Canadian provinces in grade school..we were taught we had a great neighbor to the north..we were taught we invaded Canada twice in 50 years..and were defeated both times...(albeit by the British)....Regina is your capital (some form of the regal title of Queen Victoria)..Saskatoon is your largest city..your population is about 1.1 million. Many of us in the U.S. love Canada!

as someone who regularly develops film with the actual chemicals, its really interesting and kind of funny to watch someone develop film with coffee.
EternalGalaxies I feel the same it’s so strange
Anyone else when he’s on the phone call but it’s his lock screen lol
I think your grandma opened the camera for you guys to experience this awesome moment. Very cool and touching video. God bless you. This was an awesome experience watching. 👍🏻
Wow! That was very heartwarming, having tears of joy for you and your family! Blessings .
That's a nice story, but what if it was a *PERSONAL* home video of your grandparents? 👀
I'm guessing back then people wouldn't film *personal* videos because at the end of the day it HAD to go through developing and someone would see it you know. Especially because as far az i know you needed to send the footage to the factory to have it developed.
@@xRainbowInTheDarkx Some people have no shame 😁
