It's like a moving painting.
Looks cozy as fuck.
Everyone in that film is dead. Makes it much more sad to watch.
even those kids would be over 100 years old by now, that's insane

What would've those people said if you told them that in hundred years obese neckbeards would watch these videos through some weird flat screen connected to a series of tubes.
its scary when you think those kids who were like 10-12 looking probably went off to world war 1 [editline]29th January 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;43717911]What would've those people said if you told them that in hundred years obese neckbeards would watch these videos through some weird flat screen connected to a series of tubes.[/QUOTE] more like strings and nets
look at all those boater hats! Can you imagine this being the new hype like fedoras? [img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Sgj8XNR9WE4/TfMF6aBX-tI/AAAAAAAAAGA/xhqZlZZBVDY/s320/boater.jpg[/img]

What's the thing called again when you realize that everyone you come in contact with is living a life just as complex as your own? I'm getting that like x100 because everyone of those people has already lived their life and made their small contribution to the fabric of humanity and who knew that by some chance they would be in the right place at the right time and immortalized into a video clip and viewed by thousands of people from the future?
It's strange thinking that this is film of a dead empire's dying moments. Everyone in this film is dead, many of the buildings are gone, and chances are most of the [I]things[/I] - cars, clothes, etc. are gone.

I wonder how many of those soldiers in the video survived the first world war.

The British, Russian, and French empires were declining but the German Empire was barely over 30 years old and in that time frame it managed to get (if I remember correctly) more Nobel Prizes than France, Britain, Russia, and the USA in that time frame [I]combined.[/I] Germany gave us so many great things, even before it was unified. For example, most of the Modern World would not even exist were it not for Gutenberg's printing press. Imagine if they survived World War One in tact. We would probably have even more cool shit and a world with Germany at the helm. But best of all is what [I]wouldn't[/I] happen if Germany won; World War II. Don't get me wrong, the German government at the time was very totalitarian and power-hungry, but the people of Germany are responsible for so many great things. Yet the whole country has been ruined from years of war and abroad their reputation has suffered immensely because of World War II (and World War I to a lesser extent, a war which wasn't really the fault of any one nation but the greed and ambition of many empires in a time where "empires" were a dying concept). And when watching this, I contemplated, "how many of these people are going to die in the war in the next 18 years? How many of their kids are going to die in the war after that?".
Contributing with how Bucharest (Romania's capital) used to look back then. It used to be called Little Paris or Paris of the East [video=youtube;oC074zjlmGQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oC074zjlmGQ[/video]

Cars didn't look like that from 1900-1920 at least.

Those kids at 2:16 in the original video have a [i]stylish[/i] little car. It's literally a miniature version of a normal car.

Reminds me of that 1080p recording of a hockey match from like the 1980's or so. Freaks me a bit out to look this far into the past.
So many hats, I really wonder if people traded hats at that time. No seriously I really wanna know if they traded hats with friends for a day or something like I did with my xbox and my friends ps2 once.
