Many years ago: we build it strong and long lasting, so that you respect our company craftsmanship. now: we build it weak, so that you can keep coming back and keep paying us.
Building a thing too good can be a problem for the business! The Royal Typewriter Company went out of business because no one would buy their new typewriters because the old ones just kept working!
If something breaks too fastI'm pretty sure that person wouldn't keep it although if they give it a life of two to three years then I'm pretty sure they would
What do you do with your five year old jeans? You throw them away. It wouldn't make sense to build things that last forever people would either throw them away anyways or just don't buy from you anymore.
I love the difference in durability between old books. You have to be super careful with 20th century books, moderately careful with 19th c ones, but you could probably throw a 16th c book at a wall and the wall would lose
The women in my family have been passing down an Ivy plant since the 1940's. Every time a female passes away, a piece of the plant is given to one of the a younger female family members.

Facts, don’t quote me on this but I heard that every new generation has a slightly bigger rib cage, which is why dresses and lots of other clothing doesn’t fit when it’s passed down
Had a light bulb by my front door that lasted 23 years for me, it came with the house so have no idea how old it really was. My elderly neighbor lived alone, no TV,phone, hydro or gas, heated his house with a wood stove since the 1950's. He liked his privacy but left his bathroom light on so I knew he was alive. One night his light never came on, did a welfare check and he was gone. The night after he passed I turned my light on to go to his favorite place, Safeway 😂 and it blew in a huge double flash. I guess it was his way of saying thanks for the 23 year friendship, and he made his final destination.
I know this sounds cheesy but: I really wish they made things the way they used to. Nowadays we had to replace our refrigerator when it broke after six months.
Old things simply last longer than they do now. My boyfriends parents air conditioning unit which was installed in the late 70’s just broke for the first time 2-3 years go. Meanwhile my parents air conditioning unit in their last house which was built in 2005 broke every single summer... once their air conditioning broke twice in 1 year and broke 2 weeks before they moved out of their house. SMH. The same applies to cars, silverware/fine china, clocks and clothes.
@@dewaldsteyn1306 you only see high quality old things because the low quality old things broke or were worn out and got thrown away long ago. This applies to cars, silverware/fine China, clocks, and cloths.
There is a story book on that light 💡 bulb! We use to read it all the time as children it’s a great book 10/10 recommend and the engineering is probably so interesting
It’s called planned obsolescence, they purposely make things made to break fast because it’s not profitable if people never rebuy a product after only buying it once
For those wondering about the century bulb, light bulbs very rarely blow out while they're on. They almost always go out when turned on or off so as long as it stays on it'll be safe till it cracks
Yeah, old stuff is so much higher quality it’s crazy. I was very fortunate and inherited my great grandparents furniture, some of it. I have a tea set that’s from Japan which my great grandfather got when he took a trip there. My great grandfather was a pretty interesting person, he loved to travel and was a doctor. I love traveling too and find Japanese culture interesting. My parents knew I loved the tea set and when I moved out last year (yes, during the pandemic-bought my first house, which was an adventure) they gave me the tea set. I love it. It’s also decorated in silver which I prefer over gold. With scenery of mountains. I display it proudly in my dining cabinet. My house is a 1950s one and still has original tile in the bathroom and in the kitchen. It’s funny because some people love it and others suggest updating. I’m going to keep it. I like the classic feel. The 1950s had a nice style. Solid wood and tile with color. My old furniture fits that style too. I think it’s growing on my family because they always say my house looks great. The materials last forever so why change.
Yes, that also is because they were very over-engineered compare to todays standards and expensive that only rich people could afford back then unlike today when everything is manufactured with quantity rather than quality cheaply to keep consumers buying new things more often to make companies going strong and customers happier for not spending that much.
Things built back in the day were made to last... a time where most companies tried to at least give customers a quality product. Now they barely *act* like they care
Apparently the bulb companies used to make the lightbulbs so good that they would stay on for a long time but because of this fact that means people had no need to buy a new one so the bulb companies got together and agreed to make them not last as long on purpose
Police Officer: "I bust criminals and find illegal drugs. What do you do?" FireFighter: "Uh, I supervise a 120 year old light bulb to make sure it stays out of trouble."
The most shocking part of this video was that one wedding dress managed to fit 11 different women in that family.. I guess it’s possible that it was tailored when needed though
When she said they took that dress to a designer, my heart jumped into my throat because I thought they were going to take it apart and make it into something "new", aka DESTROYING A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF HISTORY!! Thank gosh they didn't!
They HAD to take it apart. Definitely every seam of it. Then CAREFULLY clean the silken pattern pieces, the lace and take out all old inlets like linings, tulle, cotton or wool linings. Then one can begin to restore the broken parts of the silk and lace, put in new stiffening lining if required, sew the pieces CAREFULLY together again and then tell the bride: BE CAREFUL!😂 This is my Job also, as a Costume tailor, to restore!

All these old items looked amazing! The wedding dress especially had me in awe! Especially with how many years it’s lasted in this one family! The bread too was also shocking and it even still tasted good even after how long it was in those pots for! Gotta love the old days!
I just remembered a story. The family would also hear an alarm in a certain time they called a show to break the wall to find a body wearing the watch, the same alarm they could hear at a certain time.
Mine wanted me to but only had the skirt anyway she was barely 120 pounds at the time, seriously under weight and bordering on anorexic which she became later. I'm 200lbs and even as a child was large. I remember asking her, literally "how, as a hand puppet?" I mean her clothes fit me at the time and I was 7 some being a little small on me and I was 7 at the time. Unless I got married at that age how was I gonna fit in that dress. Even then I knew I was not born to be a skeleton, which even in the 80s she resembled
My dorm fridge that I started using as a freshman in 1982 is still going strong in the garage where I live now and it even has ice buildup around the icemaker.
The story of the clock behind the wall reminds of the time someone dropped one of those Build a Bear voice things down a toilet in one of our local stores. The voice thing got stuck somewhere in the toilet and every time the toilet flushed, the toilet would say, "I love you". 😂
You can tell that the reason the old stove and fridge work is because it was well manufactured but those people take really good care of their things too - those appliances were gleaming.
i also have such a clock. i used to play with it when i was a small child, then it was stored untouched in a box with my toys for many years. now I'm 25 and the clock is still showing the right time. I was shocked when I saw it.
Until capitalism degenerated into consumerism and finally killed it by US dependency on China. That's why the USA isnt as strong as it was because China holds them by the balls.
We actually have a ceiling fan that's been working for around 35 years. It's still the fastest in the house! As far as any of our family members can remember, we didn't have to do any sort of repair on it except for the coat of painting they'd done, because it was getting kinda rusty.

All these old items looked amazing! The wedding dress especially had me in awe! Especially with how many years it’s lasted in this one family! The bread too was also shocking and it even still tasted good even after how long it was in those pots for! Gotta love the old days!

Doesn't compare too that light tho?

I just remembered a story. The family would also hear an alarm in a certain time they called a show to break the wall to find a body wearing the watch, the same alarm they could hear at a certain time.

Not every mother wants their daughter to wear their wedding dress. I didn’t.
Probably because it had evidence of the Honeymoon on it
Mr Boombastic oop-
I would if it's been around that long.
I would advise her to wear something, more flattering, for later for their honeymoon lmfao. But keep the dress around.
Mine wanted me to but only had the skirt anyway she was barely 120 pounds at the time, seriously under weight and bordering on anorexic which she became later. I'm 200lbs and even as a child was large. I remember asking her, literally "how, as a hand puppet?" I mean her clothes fit me at the time and I was 7 some being a little small on me and I was 7 at the time. Unless I got married at that age how was I gonna fit in that dress. Even then I knew I was not born to be a skeleton, which even in the 80s she resembled
"jason was wowed"
Jason: "the bride was more beautiful than the dress"
convenient way to avoid directly commenting on the dress lmao
My dorm fridge that I started using as a freshman in 1982 is still going strong in the garage where I live now and it even has ice buildup around the icemaker.
The story of the clock behind the wall reminds of the time someone dropped one of those Build a Bear voice things down a toilet in one of our local stores. The voice thing got stuck somewhere in the toilet and every time the toilet flushed, the toilet would say, "I love you". 😂
OMG LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What store is it XD
😆 lol
Yoooo! 😂😂😂😂
Who else would just sell them except for that stove cause I got a really bad stove and my parents can’t afford to buy one
That sucks man
You'll pull through
Thank you
It means a lot I appreciate it
Start your own business and don’t go to college, best of luck
Who would have thought that clothes still “work” over time. It’s almost as if there’s nothing that can break...

SAME- but because ik I would the same-
But it makes sense
You can tell that the reason the old stove and fridge work is because it was well manufactured but those people take really good care of their things too - those appliances were gleaming.
Yes. I can believe that the lightbulb still works. They can all be made to last forever.
i also have such a clock. i used to play with it when i was a small child, then it was stored untouched in a box with my toys for many years. now I'm 25 and the clock is still showing the right time. I was shocked when I saw it.
That dude took like one bite and his face was like wtf is this.
Lmao
"Can you believe these old things still work?"
Thumbnail is a pair of pants...
lol! Right?
Well, it does work lol
And they're fricking huge
When a company manufactures something so well that it never breaks, they only get to sell you one. Its no coincidence things dont last as long today.
Yes. They weren't intentionally designed to break down like everything is now
6:03 the dress is timeless, they've done terrific job conserving it and she looked splendid wearing it
Thats a testament to America's craftsmanship
Until capitalism degenerated into consumerism and finally killed it by US dependency on China. That's why the USA isnt as strong as it was because China holds them by the balls.
That’s stove looks a lot better then anything now in days
Lol it does.

We actually have a ceiling fan that's been working for around 35 years. It's still the fastest in the house! As far as any of our family members can remember, we didn't have to do any sort of repair on it except for the coat of painting they'd done, because it was getting kinda rusty.
