Jesus... some of those guys towards the end standing up on that scaffolding/construction stuff is insane. Just casually hanging out near a skyscraper length plummet, holding onto a thin cable.
If you listen carefully, you can hear people going, "I say, old sport, it seems traffic signal has been illuminated with a viridian color for a quarter of a second, and thus I am finding it quite perplexing that you have yet to move your automobile."
It's pretty haunting to consider how much of this has changed or outright disappeared.

Need some filtering done on the audio in post...all I heard for most of it was a deafening statickey roar that's telltale of old, degraded tape...but it's a nice little shot into what life was like in simpler times.
Holy shit, those airships. It's so strange to think that we'll never see behemoths like those again. Usually you'd equate "future" with "bigger," but not in this case. It's pretty weird to think that the age of luxurious air travel and air taxis are over, and now the largest American airliners are either defunct or complete garbage.
I've noticed this trend in other cities as well, London especially.
It's unsettling, even somewhat alarming, like losing part of ones identity.
