I have a video suggestion for you, you don't have to formally review it for the channel, but I think you would enjoy the video of Micheal Knowles ranking US Presidents. It resembles Ben Shapiro's ranking, but Michael ranks more presidents. I really think that you'd enjoy it. Love your reactions!!
pretty good ad, Chris. It made me think about creating my genealogic tree :)
MORE OF THESE VIDEOS PLEASE
Mr beast pls giv me moni am very pool 🙏🙏🙏
@@blackman5867hey buddy, BEAT IT!
WAY TO GO ON THE SPONSORSHIP!! I knew the first one was Elvis. When you said a concert in 1957, I was thinking, "Probably Elvis." I made a 50s music tier list, and a lot of my top tier songs are Elvis. The MGM one was from 1962, the lions name: Leo. And the 50s music, to me, is what leads to the evolution of modern music.
Elvis is my favorite entertainer and singer. I love most of his songs from the 50s through the 60s and 70s. Such a good soul and although he had his mistakes and less good things like everyone I truly believe he was a good person. RIP Elvis.
Absolutely agree. RIP to the arguably the Greatest of all time, certainly the most influential.@@colton2680
To be fair, any era of anything is already leading the evolution of the next era.
You can sometimes tell when RUclipsrs go into “commercial mode” and are talking something up just because they’re paid to do it. But I’ve been watching this channel long enough to know how passionate Chris is about family history. It’s so cool to learn about your family’s past and where they came from.
That photograph of the Red Cross worker taking down the last words of the wounded soldier hits you right in the heart. I can't imagine witnessing such things.
Congratulations on the sponsorship!! Great to see
After watching this channel for going on 3 years now, when that MyHeritage sponsor came up I was a happy man. Way to go on getting such a fitting sponsorship, Chris! We know how much family history means to you, so to see them sponsor you is truly amazing. Keep up the amazing work.
Love to see this series back!!! Thanks VTH
Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky was one of the early pioneers of color photography. His photographs taken across the Russian Empire in the early 1900s are some of the best examples of color photography from that period.
I totally agree with you that discovering history through discovering your family tree is just so much fun! I have found connections to world events, famous battles, not-so-famous battles that I have learned about after discovering that connection, religious/spiritual movements such as Shakers and Spiritualism, and other things that impacted personal lives like murders, bankruptcy, and illnesses like polio.
One of my favorite series you do- Also, wonderful sponsor, very fitting; the way you did the sponsor actually kept me engaged throughout it, instead of skipping past.
This is hands down my favorite series you do. So interesting and you’ve got my full attention. Great job explaining.
Love these videos, Chris! Your commentary adds great color to the unknown.
These are fascinating. I really like the color picture of Mark Twain. It looks very modern.
Thank you for the video. I just wanted to share something. May Grandma just passed away a couple of days ago. I was going through her pictures of her honeymoon with my step grandpa to Florida in January of 1986. She took seven photos of the Challenger launch and explosion. So unreal and emotional. Just wanted to share that.
Congrats on the sponsorship, Chris. I know I’m late to the party but I’m glad you chose a sponsor that meets your passions but also your target audience.
My Heritage is in fact a very nifty service. Best birthday gift I ever received. And great job on the sponsor!
How do you like it? I used to Ancestry but it was getting pretty expensive so I stopped it. Want to get back into it.
@@dstahl5260 in my personal opinion my heritage is just as good as ancestry. They both are pretty pricey but however “My Heritage” is more known for their European records while “Ancestry” has more North American records. Most of my family originated in the Germanic areas of Europe so I naturally went with My heritage. It’s really a personal preference kinda thing bc you’ll find a good amount on either service.
Ah this is my favorite series of yours Chris. Thanks for a Monday highlight. Congratulations on your myheritage sponsor as well.
Perfect sponsor for your channel! Congrats!
I'm so glad you brought this series back I look forward to any more your going to do.
Also congrats on the sponser!🎉
I just got off work... And now i am able to watch a new video from you? I like how this week starts
I LOVE this video series on your channel! Oh god, thank you!
Was actually just thinking about this series, glad it’s back!
You’re right, I really have never seen these photos before, fascinating stuff!
Congrats on the partnership! We all know how much your heritage means to you so this is incredible to see
Congratulations on the sponsorship! And something that strongly correlates with your channel to boot
14:44 This is not Johnny Cash. (Does it even look like Johnny Cash?)
In that photo, Elvis is cutting the hair of his cousin, Gene Smith, on the set of his movie, "Loving you".
I love what you do sir and this one of my favorites types of videos that you do.
Very few of those early color photos survived as the process at the time was expensive and cumbersome, requiring heavy (and fragile) glass plates that were treated with various dyes. Plus actually seeing them required a heavy duty light projector that ran a high risk of burning out the photo.
There are many technologies that could do the job they were made for quite well but then took many decades of further development before you had something that could be used as a consumer product or piece of research or military equipment.
Cracking the physics that make it possible is one part. Refining the engineering to make it into a practical product can be even harder.
Just to make you curious enough to wonder how many valuable and important photos were lost due to the process of time, they must have meant the world for those who have seen them before they disappeared forever...
Man I got so pumped when I saw the sponsorship, super happy for you Chris!
Love this series, please keep it going!
There is a picture of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria standing in a sarcophagus in Cairo in 1896.
The Egyptians had cut out the faces of some sarcophagi so tourist could stand in them to have their picture taken, and Franz Ferdinand had one taken of him.
These sarcophagi also have a historical significance as they are the precursor to the modern peep boards.
hey glad this series is back! it's one of my favorites
Hey VTH. Just wanted to say I love your work, and I enjoy watching your reactions. Your perspective and insight on the topics being covered is always a plus!
I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but Atun Shei made a three part series on the movie Gettysburg, and I'd love for you to cover it as well if you get the chance.
Keep up the great work!
Receny found your channel! Fascinating! Thank you!
I absolutely love this series! So glad to see it back!
Love nearly all your content on your many channels ! You’re the best historian I know. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
P.S. Man why are you wearing a Hoffenheim Shirt i hope it was a present ! I should hook you up with a Eintracht Frankfurt Jersey 🖤🦅
P.P.S. Sorry for any errors in grammar etc.
I may have to go to rehab because of my new addiction to your channel. Lol.
Seriously, you do a great job
5:39 I cannot remember how but I am related to George Armstrong Custer.
Love your channel keep up the great work. Thank you
I always love these photograph videos. So cool take a look back in time. I hope there are more to come
im not kidding yesterday i just went back and watched the historical videos one and the photos compilation
Fun Fact: my small podunk town in East Texas was frequented a lot by Elvis Presley, mainly to the old Mint Club and the KSIJ studios. Johnny Cash also wrote I Walk the Line while staying at a hotel here as well!
Yeah bro you deserve sponsors
congrats on the sponsorship, especially one so relevant
Please consider continuing this if you have more! Not the way I found your channel but the reason I subbed these were great
These may be my favorite videos of yours. Pleas do more in the future!
Congratulations Chris on your first sponsorship
I was waiting for a new episode of this series! I love seeing a lot lf historical photos, or even random photographa from the old times. Each photo really tells us just a glimpse of history.
I remember I had added a link of old photographs in one of your videls, but I guess it was not seen. But anyway, I would love to suggest about the photographs featured in Billy Joel's "We didn't start the fire" music video
I had no idea Morgan Freeman had been in the air force. Cool pic. I love it, when you do these old photo histories.
Yes!!! I love this series.
Thanks for bringing the series back Chris. For the next episode please show the colored photograph of Herbert Hoover in the White House with his family.
Love these old photo vids.
The tartan ribbon photograph was created by photographer Thomas Sutton, who was working with - and following the technique devised by - the great physicist James Clerk Maxwell. For some reason Maxwell, although very well known amongst physicists, never seems to have achieved the fame he deserved outwith the scientific community. This man was an absolutely bona fide genius, up there with Newton and Einstein in terms of his significance. In fact, Einstein had a photograph of Maxwell on his wall, such was his admiration for him.
There's a color video of HMS Hood a few months before it sank. Not a picture, but might still be a cool inclusion!
8:15 - A small mercy I guess is that people were shorter and smaller back then but still man the balls it took to do that! Even miners today I admire but back then WHEW!
I did that MyHeritage trial from another channel, might have been Armchair Historian, and I recommend it. I learned about my ancestors from way back, all the way to the 1600s in Virginia. Also found some info about my mom’s long lost (now dead) aunt. It’s Awesome stuff!
This is cool. What an awesome premise.
The series is back let's goooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at the mane on the mgm lion. Someone spent some time combing that lion, maybe that's why he's so cooperative.
Finally a sponsorship let's go
That photo of the 12 Russian snipers...that's the sort of thing that would be ripe for a movie or a Band of Brothers-style mini-series, unpacking their backgrounds, how they came into the war, whether they lived beyond it, etc.
Agree!!!!
Despite not being a Biden fan I have found many random facts about him over the years. Hearing a phone call he had with Nixon soon after his wife’s death, Nixon who’s not known for his good words in deeply personal circumstances called Biden and wished his support and help in mourning. Chris I feel like if you could, maybe do audio or video similar to this series. Things not everyone has heard or saw before besides pictures.
VTH DROPPED A NEW VIDDDD
I’ve been working on a project for Wikitree to create profiles for every African-American in the 1880 census. I started with my home county in Illinois. I got to the second community on the list, and was forcibly reminded that there used to be coal mines there! They were mostly gone by my childhood in the 1970s, but there were so many men working there in 1880, and quite a few of them were African-American, mostly from Virginia.
One person creating several million profiles?
@@dictatorofcanada4238 No, they put out a call to everyone on Wikitree to help out. I am one of hundreds. I just got started on my home county, which has 703 names with “B” in the race category on it (still am waiting to see if they want us to work on “Mu.” as well). Some already have profiles, so I just have to add that info on a spreadsheet. Otherwise, I create the profile, adding the citation for the 1880 census, and update the spreadsheet. It’s a great project to work on!
@@dictatorofcanada4238 They put out a call for everyone on the site, and over 100 of us responded. It’s a great project to be involved in!
Congrats on the sponsorship Chris
His name is Sam Nixon…
@@maximemunger5022 my apologies to Sam Nixon and his family for all the trouble I have caused him over this weekend. (Love your Indian history Sam!)
@@maximemunger5022 Love this joke
@@maximemunger5022 Jack has some of the best content
A sponsor!! About time
There’s a pretty interesting picture out there of Samurai posing in front of the Sphinx at Giza in 1864
Yooo let's gooo with the sponsorship!
Dope Video, these videos are great.
May I recommend the photo of Angélique Brûlon, the first woman recipient of the legion of honour, who served in Corsica during the Napoleonic wars and was put forward for the award in 1804, but received it only in 1851 aged 79.
also (although I know you've covered similar ground before) the photo of Charlie Chaplin at the premier of his 1931 film City Lights with Albert Einstein, with whom he was good friends. There's a funny anecdote about Einstein bringing a quarter of violinists to dinner and insisting he also play with them, though he wasn't very good and eventually his wife had to gently tell him to sit down.
Also since you liked the photo of Johnny Cash and Elvis, you might also like to know there's great photos of Marlene Dietrich meeting the Beatles at the Royal Variety Show in 1963.
Thanks! Hope you can make it to the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa Ontario someday. They have one of Hitler's parade cars, complete with bullet impacts from the guns of American troops who decided to shoot it up a bit.
LOL. When you mentioned that we would know the voice, I thought you were talking about James Earl Jones and not Morgan Freeman. XD
Another iconic voice.
I love these videos
THe photo of Chichen Itza reminded me of similar photos of Machu Picchu before it was rediscovered, completely covered by trees and vines
Take a look at Aníbal Milhais, the only person to receive the highest award of honor for Portugal, keeping two German regiments at bay while simultaneously saving a Scotsman, his story is super interesting, especially if you look at the complete lack of interest the portuguese government had at protecting its soldiers (mainly due to a coup and counter-coup during the great war
Pictures of the painter and Mannerheim in 1942 are interesting. Also from that encounter is a recording of the painter speaking calmly and relaxed. Recorder without the painter knowing it
The picture with the TV is particularly jarring because Apple just came out with the Vision Pro. I mean technically it’s not brand new technology but the fact that potentially we can have a computer attached to our face.
I love these!!
Chris, last summer I saw a photo while on vacation in South Dakota called "The Gathering" from 1883. It had many big named men from that time period. Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, Teddy Roosevelt, Butch Cassidy, etc. Is that photo real? It seems unbelievable that all those famous men would be in one place at the same time.
7:46
With a bit of research, this appears to be a photo of Jackie, the Lion that MGM used from 1928-1956 (Though Jackie himself passed away in 1935)
So this photo was likely taken around 1928, give or take.
One of my personal favorite interesting historical pictures is one in just stumbled across recently. The picture is at the 1962 MLB All-Star Game at the then brand new DC Stadium which would later be renamed RFK Stadium and in the front row watching Al Kaline at bat is JFK, LBJ, Jimmy Hoffa and Larry O'Brien who was at the time the chair of the DNC and the namesake of the NBA championship trophy.
Congrats on the sponsorship! Hope to see more of it.
As for the photos, I find it ironic that Joe Biden was one of the youngest senators in history.
Gotta say that the a Russian snipers were pretty cool too.
You can sometimes find that photo of Morgan Freeman in some of his movies. Especially in Last Vegas among other photos in his house
"More, please?" ~ Oliver
14:41 I could be mistaken, but I think in the background that could be Ernest Shackleton a year before his death?
Another crazy fact about Buddy Holly and his connection to country music that always drove me crazy was that a young Waylon Jennings played bass with Buddy Holly and the Crickets
He was actually flying on the plane with buddy while JP (The Big Bopper) was supposed to be driving but was feeling sick, so Jennings gave up his seat to JP that would eventually crash killing everyone on board
I’d love to see you do the Tucker Carlson and Putin interview especially the history maybe you can give us context as well as if Putin was wrong about his own interpretation of history.
My favourite videos
Hey VLG, love your content!
If you need some recommendations for future content I’d recommend J Draper. She has some excellent videos on English history
Wait no way the last episode was over a year ago
Not a photo suggestion but just an interesting fact connected to first color photo, before that famous one there was a guy called Levi Hill who claimed to create the first color photo with his invention Hillotype in 1851. He was actively telling about his invention, showing some of the pictures and selling his books in 1856 in which he promised to reveal his device. However he constantly kept removing the grand reveal on other date and soon everybody called him a fraud. He died in 1865 at the age of 48 most likely because of poisoning from the chemicals he used to paint his photos.
There are several known photos made by him, but obviously they were just painted. It's also worth mentioning he was supported by many other inventors, including Samuel Morse
Holy crap your grandma was 34 when she became a grandma!!??, my mom had me at 35, just fascinating how that is
The women in the red cross talking to soliders last words just reminds me of an animr ive watched called violet evergarden of the one episode of the main character talking to an dieing solider and the character us writing out his last words for the character to send to his family and finance
Now that I have seen all of these videos I can make a recommendation
In the 80’s while the war on drugs was going on particularly against the rise of cocaine. There is a photo of infamous drug lord Pablo Escobar outside the White House taking a picture with his kid
Interesting video
Theres a really cool photo i saw of Kaiser Wilhelm II in an Ottoman soldier outfit that i think is pretty cool
There are 4 known Revolutionary War veterans who lived long enough to have their photograph taken. Saw them in a YT Short.
Hey Chris! I know you said you planned on reacting to more Roman History since your Italy trip is approaching, so if you still plan on reacting to History with Snave's video on the Foundation of Rome you can add the video to your list if you haven't already.
Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/-YFJvxttHZ8/видео.html
Also, I love these historic photo videos you do and hope you check some more out!
9:12 the beginning of the end
Hi Chris was meant to be coming to Birmingham today but Child Care has changed last minute meaning I cannot come 😢
Have you ever heard of a photo called "The Gathering"? It could make an interesting video by itself. The photo was taken at Hunters Hot Springs in Montana, and supposedly is a who's who of legendary figures from the "Wild West", including Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Theodore Roosevelt, Judge Roy Bean, and others. The photo appears to be genuine and undoctored, the controversy is whether the people in the photo are really those people.
