    It is a strange feeling watching them. You can’t help but watch over and over again. Here these people are, many in their prime and yet now gone. Each one had a name and place in this world, dreams and aspirations, family and loved ones. All that and yet here they are anonymous, forgotten and unknown. Makes you realise how unimportant we all are. We’ll all be like them oneday.

      I agree with you on everything except the part about "how unimportant we are". In God's eyes, each of us are as important as anyone who has, is, and will be walking on this earth. Being "remembered" is overrated. What is important, is to connect with your God, live an honorable life, be kind to one another, and reach out to help those who can't help themselves. If you make a concerted effort to live this kind of life, then your time here is merely a stepping stone to a much greater existence.

    Pick any one of these people and follow them on the screen for the duration of the scene. They never could have imagined that thousands of people ,nearly a hundred years from that moment would be watching those fleeting and seemingly insignificant seconds in their lives with such interest. They have all left this world by now. Each had a story to tell . Each left their influences. Some lived a long time, and some lived short lives. They played a role in what We experience today as we will play a role in what those who follow us will experience.

      من اکنون خود را ، در چهره آنها میبینم .
      بله بله باید گریست ، واقعاً به این فلسفه گنگ و عجیب و مضحک عمری که چه آرام ، ولی زود میگذرد باید گریست .
      من هم با تمام چشم های متحیری که از آن ۱۰۰ سال گذشته ، به لنز این دوربین جدید و عجیب می نگرند ، گریه میکنم .
      من هم با تمام چشمهای غمگینی که اکنون در حیرت آن قاب تصویر متحرک ۱۰۰ سال گذشته ، اشک میریزند ، گریه میکنم .
      این آمد و شدها سرنوشت ناگزیر تمام انسانهاست . ببینید چگونه ما انسانها از گذشته ، در تکرار همین گامهای پرعجله و یا قدمهای آرام ، هنوز راه میرویم ، و بعد از ما نیز با عجله خواهند آمد و در آرامش خواهند رفت ؛ کاش میشد بفهمیم انتهای این مسیر و راه رفتنهای انسان به چه و چگونه و کجا می انجامد؟

    This is one of my favorites. The depression was beginning to take a toll. Many of these handsome men had been veterans of WWI and many more of them would be fighting and dying in just over a decade. Like us today, they were just living the life they knew, with no idea what the future held. It’s always so meaningful to look at these faces, knowing they all completed their earthly lives. It’s a humbling reminder from the Bible that there’s a time to live and a time to die. Beautifully restored. Thank you! ❤

    It really puts into perspective how little time we have on earth, the days/weeks/months we feel unhappy are wasted, I’m really trying to change my outlook on the world and value every single day to enjoy life. I don’t want to be old and look back and regret all the things I didn’t do. It’s a scary thought knowing once you’re gone, a few generations go by and you’re forgotten about forever. We need to thoroughly make the most of our lives while we’re living

We can look forward to the Blessed Trinity, our blessed virgin mother, Mary, all the angels and saints, including the martyrs. We won't be concerned with certain thoughts and feelings that we have now. Having said that, I did enjoy your poignant comment and the video.

    هذا المشهد يحمل في طياته بعدًا فلسفيًا عميقًا يتناول مفهوم الزمن، الفناء، واستمرارية الحياة رغم زوال الأفراد. رؤية أناس يسيرون في شارع مزدحم في نيويورك عام 1930، وقد أضيفت الألوان إلى لحظتهم التي كانت بالأبيض والأسود، تجعلنا نتأمل في طبيعة الزمن وكيفية تحويل الماضي إلى حاضر حيّ من خلال التكنولوجيا.
    كل شخص في هذا المقطع كان يعيش لحظة يومية عادية، ربما مليئة بالآمال، الأحلام، والمخاوف. لم يكن أي منهم على دراية بأنه سيُخلّد في لقطة كهذه، ولا أنهم بعد عقود سيُشاهدون من قبل أناس لم يولدوا حتى وقتها. هذا يعيدنا إلى سؤال جوهري: "ما معنى أن نعيش؟"
    الحياة تبدو وكأنها سلسلة من اللحظات العابرة، لكن هذه اللحظات تحمل قيمة خالدة عندما تُوثّق، حتى ولو لم يكن ذلك في نية من عاشها. كل من في هذا الفيديو قد فارق الحياة على الأرجح، لكنهم في هذه اللحظة، بفضل عدسة الكاميرا، ما زالوا "أحياء" بطريقة ما. هذا يعكس فكرة أن الموت لا يعني الغياب الكامل، بل هو فقط انتقال من شكل وجود إلى آخر.
    إضافة الألوان إلى مقطع أبيض وأسود من الماضي هو بمثابة إحياء لذاكرة الزمن. لكنه أيضًا يذكرنا بأن كل ما نراه الآن، وكل ما نعيشه، سيتحول يومًا إلى ذكرى أو صورة في أرشيف المستقبل. نحن نسير اليوم في شوارع مزدحمة، نعيش حياتنا، دون أن ندرك أن لحظاتنا اليومية قد تصبح يومًا ما مادة للتأمل من قبل أجيال لم نرها.
    ما يجعل هذا الفيديو مؤثرًا هو إدراكنا أن هؤلاء الأشخاص كانوا مثلنا تمامًا: لديهم أحلام، طموحات، وربما صراعات داخلية. لكن الزمن ابتلعهم كما سيبتلعنا جميعًا. ومع ذلك، فإن وجودهم في هذا المقطع يذكرنا بأننا جميعًا جزء من سلسلة إنسانية طويلة، وأن وجودنا ليس معزولًا بل متصلًا بمن سبقنا ومن سيأتي بعدنا.
    في النهاية هذا الفيديو ليس مجرد توثيق للحياة اليومية في نيويورك عام 1930، بل هو نافذة إلى الطبيعة العابرة للحياة. إنه دعوة للتأمل في قيمة اللحظة الحالية، وكيف أن ما يبدو عاديًا اليوم قد يصبح يومًا ما ذاكرة خالدة. وهو أيضًا تذكير بأننا، رغم فنائنا كأفراد، نترك أثرًا صغيرًا في نهر الزمن الذي يستمر في الجريان.

We’ll all be busting a gut laughing over some of the legit crazy stuff that went down during mortality.

    It’s like staring into an echo of heaven. So many lives of cherished people, captured in their everyday lives, doing the things that their children and grandchildren see themselves reflected in. Little things that turned out to be the big things. My grandparents were born in 1895. They were well into adulthood by then. I’ll never know how they moved, talked and laughed as young adults. Won’t know the jokes they told. They died in 1981 and 1991. I’m grateful I met them. We span 3 centuries.

This was their news, entertainment, and media of the day. They had to take time out of their day to catch up on yesterday or the day before's news, scores, and gossip. Here, we sit nearly a hundred years later with the ability to instantaneously keep up in real-time the happenings of the world. Information overload!!!

    This was an incredible video. The first thought that entered my mind was that all of these souls have now passed on while we watch with 21st-century technology a 2-minute snapshot of their normal, daily lives. The editing is so brilliant that it appears to have been a newsreel shot only 24 hours ago and not nearly a century ago. Seeing the automobiles of the era cruise by really got my attention. Observing them being used as regular, daily transport instead of sitting in a museum or a classic car show. I had the urge to want to just stop one or two of them to forewarn them of cataclysmic events coming soon, such as WWII. Tell them man will land on the moon in about 30 years. Also, to tell them that the harsh depression times they were living in would come to an end in a few years. But that would've certainly upset the time/space continuum. However, I have always been fascinated by time travel.

    This scene carries a profound philosophical dimension, touching on the concepts of time, mortality, and the continuity of life despite the passing of individuals. Watching people walking through a bustling New York street in 1930, in a moment originally captured in black and white but later brought to life with color, invites us to reflect on the nature of time and how the past can be revived into a living present through technology.
    Every person in this clip was living an ordinary, daily moment, perhaps filled with hopes, dreams, and fears. None of them could have imagined that they would be immortalized in a scene like this, nor that decades later, they would be observed by people who hadn’t even been born at the time. This brings us back to a fundamental question: **What does it mean to live?**
    Life appears to be a series of fleeting moments, yet these moments hold an eternal value when documented, even if that wasn’t the intention of those who lived them. Most likely, everyone in this video has passed away, but thanks to the camera’s lens, they remain "alive" in a sense. This echoes the idea that death does not signify complete absence but rather a transition from one form of existence to another.
    Adding color to a black-and-white clip from the past is akin to breathing life into the memory of time. It also reminds us that everything we see now, and everything we experience, will one day become a memory or an archival image for future generations. Today, we walk through crowded streets, living our lives, without realizing that our daily moments may one day become material for contemplation by people we will never meet.
    What makes this video so poignant is the realization that these people were just like us: they had dreams, ambitions, and perhaps inner struggles. Yet time consumed them, as it will consume us all. However, their presence in this clip reminds us that we are all part of a long human chain, and our existence is not isolated but connected to those who came before us and those who will come after.
    This video is not merely a documentation of daily life in 1930s New York; it is a window into the transient nature of life. It is an invitation to reflect on the value of the present moment and how what seems ordinary today may one day become an eternal memory. It also serves as a reminder that, although we may perish as individuals, we leave behind small traces in the river of time, which continues to flow endlessly forward.

      While the comment is beautifully written, it has some weaknesses that make it less convincing when you think about it more critically. First, it assumes that adding color to old footage somehow "breathes life" into the past, but this is just a technical change-it doesn’t actually bring the past back to life or make it more meaningful. The people in the video are still gone, and adding color doesn’t change that reality. It’s more of a cosmetic update than a deep transformation.
      The idea that these people are “immortalized” through the video also feels like an exaggeration. Sure, we can see them walking around, but we don’t know who they were, what they cared about, or how they lived. They’re just anonymous figures in a crowd, and while the video captures a moment in time, it doesn’t really preserve their humanity in any meaningful way. Calling this “immortality” seems overly dramatic.
      Another issue is the claim that death isn’t a true absence but a “transition to another form of existence.” This sounds poetic, but it’s not really explained or backed up by anything. If the video is the “new form of existence,” it’s a pretty shallow one since it only shows a brief, surface-level moment of their lives. It doesn’t tell us who they were or keep their memories alive in a personal way.
      Finally, the comment romanticizes ordinary moments, saying they might become “eternal memories” for future generations. But realistically, most of these moments will just fade away, and most people won’t care about them. For example, how many people actually sit and reflect deeply on random street footage from the 1930s? The idea sounds nice, but it’s not very practical or realistic.
      In the end, while the comment is thoughtful and poetic, it overstates the significance of the video and makes assumptions that don’t hold up under closer scrutiny. It’s more about creating a dramatic emotional effect than offering a rational argument.
