The V1 flying bomb was not put into use until 1 week after D-Day. Some of the V1s were produced with a fighter cockpit that would allow for precise targeting and most likely the death of the pilot. These were only employed once at the end of WWII. If the piloted version was ready in time for the D-Day landing they might have had devastating results. Over 30,000 V1s were produced, but only about 12,000 were used. Because they were inaccurate they were more of a terror weapon than a precise bomb. They were much cheaper to build than the V2. The main positive of the V2 is that once launched it could not be stopped

Very well done--from a proud Canadian thank you.

(Literally) tons of engineering feats and facts that I'd never heard of before, good stuff!

Hello, my GGrandfater V.V.Crouch was in Verdun in WWII part of a Railroad Battalion. There was an incident where 60 glider pilots showed up and needed to get back to get more gliders. This was problematic due to sabotage of tracks, equipment and communication. Supply drops not getting through until a night glider mission was put together. Parts flow in. Train assembled, track cleared. Locomotive was fired and dawn and they got through without any authorization from HQ. Has anyone heard this? Can anyone add to this? I do have some documents, photos that confirm some of this.

天下腳下的北京況且如此，那其它地方就更是破落，所以難怪當時這麼多志士起義，再讓滿清執政全中國都得完蛋。

Fought for nothing... look at the shithole Europe is today...

A lot of those old buildings been torn down and replaced by new one's except the empire state building and Chrysler tall building.Some other ones are still around that's been remodeled.

World War 1 hadn’t even happened yet. Nobody knew what a great/world war was. Germany was the most advanced civilization in the world. No one had heard of the titanic. No one had TVs. Radios were something people had heard of, and maybe heard a broadcast in a public area, but hardly anyone had a radio of their own. Only the wealthiest ten percent had a telephone. The video portrays far more cars than there actually were, probably in an attempt to portray New York as an advanced city, but only about 0.5 percent of Americans had cars, and everyone else was on horseback. There were no airports and no one had even seen an airplane before except possibly on cigarette cards. The forerunner of the modern sportscard, every cigarette package had a trading card, and card collecting was very popular, as with no TVs color printing being the main form of media . This is the year that the T37 Turkey Red automobile cards came out, with pictures of automobiles on them which seem like go carts to us, but were the latest technology revolution to them. Smoking itself was somewhat of a novelty, and only a small percentage of the population smoked. Albert Einstein was a young celebrity having written his groundbreaking theory of special relativity 5 years earlier and was still five years away from publishing general relativity. Modern science was in its infancy. All films were silent, and merely accompanied with music. And here i am witnessing this entire era on my ipad.

So cool to watch this. Nobody dresses like this anymore. This kids all wearing Angus Young outfits, and i don’t think’ there was a person in this video not wearing a hat.

This was right around the time of economic recession. The workers might have been thankful for the job that they found while this construction was taking place.

This is why the terrorists avoided this building.

Incredible!!!

I wonder what these guys thought about the world trade center being built. They probably laughed at its engineering flaws, although I'm sure none of them expected commercial jets to ever destroy them.

Excelente video !!!

Tal vez me equivoque. Pero por los autos y la ropa este video pudiera ser del 39 o 40s. Muy bonito todo. Limpio y organizado. Se párese mucho a mi Patria Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

I missed what that pipe was for near the end but 86 miles of pipe on a giant spool is impressive to me........

Excellent! And thank God Hitler was an arrogant dumbbell and Rommel had to go home "to get laid.!"

I thought the three stooges built the Empire State building

Anne was just a poor baby girl, how is it possible to miss someone you never met ?

Danke und Respekt an die mutigen jungen Männer in den Landungsbooten, die ja größtenteils einfache Wehrpflichtige waren.

Hallo Rick, vielen Dank für diesen interessanten Film. Ich habe noch nie original Filmaufnahmen aus dieser Zeit von China gesehen. Viele Grüße aus Rheinhessen 🍷😀

Thanks for a great video. I'm bit of an armchair historian and market garden is one of my favorite topics. So when this video popped up on my recommendation list. My first thought was oh hum !!! Another bad video of the glider part of M/G. But how wrong I was. Nice video nice presentation and bravo for A collecting as much colour footage. And B for the wide selection of different footage. Not just what I call stock footage. Very well put together. Thank you.

Imagine if you were a fish swimming around the beach😮

When men were men 💪 thank you for this step back in time ❤

Imagine if a bunch of our generations “men” had to fight this war… with their pride flags, pronouns, gender identities… we would be fucked. Funny part is all these real men did all this so these weaklings of today could have that freedom… definitely not what they thought they were fighting for though

It was Brig. Gen. Teddy Roosevelt Jr. who said we’ll start the war from here, not President Franklin Roosevelt. Wayne Purzner

Cool. I can say I live north of Flushing.

This was definitely filmed with two strip Technicolor hence why it looks very red and green. They hadn’t mastered how to get a good blue for the sky yet until Technicolor processes later in the decade.

People walking in the streets alongside horse drawn carriages and trolleys. Cars have not yet taken over.

This is unbelievably stunning footage, to say the least! I suppose it's interesting how the original b/w gritty & scratchy material must literally make one feel how much time has passed in 80 years - more than an entire lifespan - and how far away these events now are. At the same time, this superb restoration and coloration (together with Sound FX) gives the images an incredible immediacy and tangibility that is hard to match. The quality of the footage even has that special desaturated, high contrast Cinemascope look of, for example, Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" to it. Just incredible. That this is Europa 80 years ago just blows my mind, and really makes me wonder, maybe at times worry a little, about the present we're living in and the fragility of democracy as a whole. Biggest appreciation and much respect out to Rick88888888, thank you!

12:55 Petrified tree in Beijing, what was that? I've never heard of it before. It seems that people around the cameraman looked surprised when they found him shooting a dead trunk.

Why do their faces look so...dead and unnatural? And their overall appearance is so different from the current inhabitants?

Peking in this old footage, just amazing

Geen "bontkraagjes" met vlassnorretjes die mensen uitschelden of anderszins lastig vallen, geen hoofddoeken, geen normvervaging. Wat een mooie tijd...

No, not at all, as two separate digitalized film files of the same titles can be found so we got choices to watch it the way it was intended or to see the ancient world in color. And sharpening and denoising also could benefit some historians when it comes to clues they may have missed before.

Engineering at this level blows my mind

Link for part 2?

I used to luv working with the Steel

This guys prepared the way of the African and Asian invaders in Europe. As Patton said before he was killed, ¨We were in the wrong side.¨

Maldito Hitler

Something's are good others are terrible for the footage. I like the stabilization in the basic cleanup but using AI to give detail where there wasn't really much detail and using it to colorize things which often gets terribly wrong it's not that great (it would be far better if there was a person that was there or knew the situation and it can be manually colorized that would be actually correct and not a wild guess, otherwise it would be best not to touch a colors as they vary from seem to scene, and are out of touch). And the motion sometimes seems a little bit too smooth it's uncanny and unnatural (the way it fits missing frames). while cleaning up dirt and scratch marks with AI maybe fast it can often remove entire chunks of detail and put in parts that were never even there in the first place I personally think AI is not the way, the real way to restore actual archive analog film is to do a full film restoration. That means finding the source film scanning it at a high resolution, color correcting it, fixing dust dirt and scratch marks stabilization of the footage and other fixes (this means doing literal manual work framed by frame often). ua-cam.com/video/mhFMFhIMMY8/v-deo.html this is all doable because they were all filmed on physical film which has incredible amounts of detail. it's just that depending on the transfer it can look great or bad an example of this famous song (old bad transfer from Tape master) 1 ua-cam.com/video/rdBF5seCfwg/v-deo.html vs 2 ua-cam.com/video/E8gmARGvPlI/v-deo.html a full 35mm 4K restoration the difference is quite noticeable - and even if something was HD and was bumped to 4K the detail is significantly better (not using AI but scanning it at a high resolution) (an example of an old black and white movie) ua-cam.com/video/K8eBcwuglfs/v-deo.html the real issue is that a lot of archival Studios are not willing to put the money and time into restoring old footage it can look literally like it was filmed yesterday it can look that good. Movies, TV shows, cartoons and anime have been restored like this for decades. sorry if you knew all of this, it's just a fact that a proper restoration will always look better than an AI interpretation

When we honor God as if already whole. As in the whole World. And remember other Nations Good will towards the Doctrine we so Honorly carry. And stop executions officially. God will gove His Blessings unceasingly. For what baffles man so is the reason they can only rehabilitate some and not others. Is that they choice to be healed by God Himself. Whimever desires to partake in this Work. God promised he would write their names on the pillar of His temple. The Forefront of His mind. And their sons will know them for all eternity. Amen.

How interestingly familiar. Much like Robert E lee. I fought with dignity and i will surrender with dignity. Today is a time for us to remember to establish Peace. We must put to work the prior works of our Fore Fathers. Joint resolution 165. For even George Washington has a Father in Heaven as do we. Knox and the door will open seek that we may find. Ask and he gladly gives only save this heart of mine. It is in recognition of the Rainbow. That God created Himself. He now invites us to join Him in His endeavor to cease from the destruction of Mankindness. Yhe fruits of the spirit love and live. Because it was manefested in the flesh! Haleluiah!!!

WOW

Как здорово увидеть это! Спасибо Вам!
