      I've seen the "Night Of The Living Dead" but I can consider this movie footage from the 1890's "The Planet Of The Living Dead" because none of the animals, birds or, unfortunately any of the people there are alive anymore.

      The saddest part to me about time capsule videos like this is just knowing that all of these people likely had all sorts of experiences and life stories to tell, but it's all just gone now. Trying to identify any of these people is probably impossible, and at best they're remembered vaguely by their descendants. It's why I think looking at history is just sad because the further back you go the less we see, and there were probably many great everyday people in the different eras who are just forgotten forever.
      Only semi-good thing for our time period is that the internet can easily archive all sorts of events and people, which should outlast us assuming nothing disastrous happens that causes the internet to either mass-lose data or just straight up hard-reset. Like even here on youtube you can watch videos from like 10-14 years ago with similarly aged comments, which is pretty wild itself.

    I find old slice of life footage old this fascinating, but it also makes me melancholic to think that everyone you see, even the smallest and most lively children, are now gone. Movies hit different than still pictures or paintings. To me the people seem more alive, like you could almost step into the video and get to know them if time wasn't standing in the way.
    I wonder how they lived their lives? Were they happy? Did they have family they left behind?

      @@SonRaySinTv these old clips and everything until digital cameras became popular not that long ago have been recorded on film which has tremendous resolution. Theoretically, film still has superior resolution to digital cameras even today therefore old even very old footage can look sharp. As for security cameras, its mostly the case of storage. Even small shops have like a dozen of the things and they record 24/7. They are obviously keeping previous days/months/weeks footage as well. If cameras were high res, they would need a ridiculous amount of storage. You can work around that though and modern security cameras have a decent amount of zoom to get close up details but thats not always the case and we see lots of use of cheap old cameras that deliver relatively useless footage.

It's kinda cool to see that not much has changed when people see a camera. Over 125 yrs, and people's reaction to being filmed has only intensified. You also get to see how people have been walking out in front of moving vehicles since the horse & wagon.

    I've recently been thinking about human lifespans and how they can overlap and bridge long periods of history. For example, I was born in 1960. When I was 5, we had a neighbor couple who were in their mid-80's. I remember them well. So they were born around 1880. If they knew someone who was in their 80's when they were kids, that someone would have been born in the late 1700's. So I knew people who knew people who were born in the 1700's. Really trippy.
    I saw a video here on TH-cam that showed some of the earliest photographs of people ever taken, which were in the 1840's. There was a very old woman in one of the photos who was born around the 1740's. She was alive at the same time as J.S. Bach, and the American Revolution happened when she was nearly middle-aged.
    The last Civil War veteran died the year before I was born. That also seems hard to believe to me. I've enjoyed talking to elderly people my entire life because their stories of the past are like experiencing history nearly first hand.
    Really looking forward to watching this video in a few moments because I've wondered how people were different back then. Did they walk differently? We've all seen the social customs of the Victorian era portrayed in films, but are those portrayals accurate? Did strangers tip their hats at one another in passing on the street, or is that just a product of Hollywood? This video is about as close to a time machine as we're likely to get. Thank you for putting this together.

      @@LeBonRoiLouis Yeah, it's really kind of wild to think about. When I was younger, my grandmother's. husband (she'd remarried after my grandfather died) told me that someone in his family (his mother or aunt or something) had come across the great plains to California in a covered wagon in the 1880's, and flew back to the east coast on a commercial airliner (probably a DC3) as an old woman. I'm not convinced that his story was true, but I imagine it probably was true for someone out there. If you ever want to see a really fun but also poignant film about this sort of thing, check out Little Big Man, starring a very young Dustin Hoffman. I think it was made in 1970. It's a fictional account of a guy who starts out crossing the great plains in a covered wagon in the mid 19th century and lives to be over 100. He meets all sorts of historical figures along the way. One of my favorite films.

      Ashura Nero by being a decent citizen. By educating yourself and making a difference while you’re alive. Although we may not have exact control on what happen behind the curtains, what the government officials do behind those walls, we have the right to vote, influence young people in a positive way, and make things happen with our voices. We can protest (peacefully) and let ourselves be heard (if you’re at least at a country with freedom of speech and basic human rights). We can use our privileges to help those who are less fortunate, treat people with respect, and be kind. If you look at those things, they are all so simple. Yet it’s quite improbable to accomplish as united people regardless of gender, sexuality, skin color, ethnicity, cultures and beliefs.
