- Hosted by Tom Brokaw, this episode gives viewers an unprecedented, inside look at the Museum and the recent renovations of the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial and the Bernard Family Hall of North American Mammals.
I’m now 71 and I remember going to this museum with my father when I was 7 years old. It was such a grand trip for me as I never got to be alone without my siblings but on this memorable day I was. It was just Daddy and me... a little girl with patent leather Mary Jane shoes holding her Daddy’s hand amazed by what she saw and heard. I did not know it but we were poor. I had been taught not to ask for anything at any time, anywhere. So when my Dad offered to rent the headphones for the dioramas I was shocked and delighted. I kept taking them off saying Daddy listen too. What a marvelous day. At the end of the day my Dad took me into the museum store and bought me a paperback book about dinosaurs which I treasure till this very day. Thank you for this museum where do much is taught and treasured.
Thank you for sharing this precious memory with us all!
I appreciate that despite financial difficulty your dad tried his best to make you happy. An inspiration to me as young man.
This is very lovely
Thank you for sharing your beautiful story .I actually felt like I was walking around in the crowd ,looking at all the exhibits, you clutching your new crisp paperback. You must have been wearing the biggest brightest and proudest smile of the museum
Same with me and mom. I love NY
Wow. My mom first took me here here about 60 years ago when I was 4 or 5 years old. Miss you mom. Thanks for taking me to see the dinosaurs.
You'll never see it all in a day, you can start when they open the doors, and sill won't complete your tour by closing time. It's the best museum I've ever been into in my life.
Very true. As a matter of fact if you TRY to take it all in on one day you will become exhausted and wont enjoy it as much. We did that the first time decades ago and by the end of the day we were not enjoying it. We went again years later and spent most of the time just viewing what we didnt see or was more interesting and that was more enoyable.
googleboyny very true it's like battle fatigue. It's all enthralling while on your sofa but when the walking and standing and hunger and restroom searches and more walking and more standing and... Better to do a highlights run or a particular hall destination for a season by season romp.
Agreed. I tried to do exactly that this weekend. I spent from 10 o'clock, opening time, to 5 forty-five, closing time, here one day, and then four hours more the next (all the time that I had in New York), and I still felt that I had only scratched the surface. I feel that really, one day per floor is necessary. *Maybe* floors 3 and 4 can be combined in a day, but floor 1 and floor 2 absolutely require each a day of their own. (And that's not even counting the space/cosmos extension to the museum.) Agreed that it's the best single museum in the world. (The Prussian collections in Berlin alone can surpass it, but they're divided into multiple separate museums.)
Your right it takes time. Enjoy and learn as much as you can. ☺️
It's a great museum but the Met is better - would take you a week to get through that one.
I had the fortune of visiting the museum at the age of 14. There are many exhibits I regret never seeing when I had the chance.
I've been going to this museum since before I can remember and it never gets old. I love this museum and the memories I have of it. I hope more people get to have the same experiences!
I grew up in NYC and loved going to the museum when I was a kid. The diorama was always my favorite part. I've been there a million times and still never saw every part. I reckon there are very few people who can say they have been to every single part, on every floor, of that huge structure. So many iconic places in NYC, like the Central Park Zoo or skating at Rockefeller Center in the winter, were familiar places I loved going to as a kid. Great city to grow up in. But, as any New Yorker knows, the city is a double-edged sword. Now, I live in the UK and look out my window with a view of horses in fields. I'd rather have my UK view over a penthouse view in NY any day.
I'm a Brit and have never been to the museum. However, when I was a child in the 70s I read the book Catcher in the Rye, in which a teen boy spends the day wandering around NY including the museum. He explains some of the exhibits in detail (as they were in the 50s when the book was written).
I can still remember as a very little boy climbing onto the herd of Elephants sculpture, and standing in that incredible place for just a few moments until my father realized where I was! I still keep that memory with me and have taken countless friends, family, and lovers to that wonderful museum over time. I have to say it's better now than ever, one of the great jewels of New York City...GO!
My cousin has worked for the museum for 20 years I'm very proud of this fact and her . Love you dina! Chip.
To be honest, I was moved to tears of gratitude for our dear Theodore Roosevelt. They're very right had he not protected these immensely glorious wild areas, all that beauty would have been transformed into vast, ugly, grey, soul-eating, concrete jungles of modernity. Enormous wastelands of industry and broken people.
Thank you so much for posting this Treasure of New York video I really appreciate it and God bless you for sharing this experience with me.
This was my favorite place as a kid. I can't even tell you how many times I have been there. It is a shame, however, that they replaced the life size fish with television screens. What made this place so magical was that it was so never changing. And I think that kids respond more to those dioramas than they do to the technological modernizations. Kids get enough TV at home.
Ive visited this.wonderful place atleast 30 times by age 20
The best place EVER!!
I'm starting as an intern/volunteer at the Herpetology department at AMNH after New Years. I'm so excited it's a dream come true!!!
How was your internship?
Snakes alive....
Yeah snakes good luck let us know how that works for ya
So beautiful.. the wonders of mother nature! It brought me to tears... And how amazing the job the team does to preserve this espectacular exibition!
We knew it was a very special place even as children. How lucky we were to have access to such a great museum. We loved the dinosaurs and the big Kodiak bear the most.
I used to go to the museum when I played hooky....
It's 2019 and this is more relevent than ever. TR, could you please make a guest appearence at the WH and say hi to DT, and remind him what it means to protect our country and it's natural resources.
A fabulous program!! The Museum is a wondrous & magical place
A wonderful presentation of an American Treasure----by Tom Brokaw, another American treasure.
As far as dioramas go, they never showed the sea life dioramas which are equally stupendous. Whenever I've shown out-of-towners around, this museum has always been number one on the sight-seeing list. Growing up, I'd gone here every couple of years whether with others or alone. It plain didn't matter.
they are in the Millstein Gallery which wasn't around when we were kids.
loved it and I think Teddy would have chuckled at the though of kids sticking fingers in his ear
What a wonderful documentary.
We need many more of these.
When your passion is also your occupation... Magic happens. 🕊️❤️
I've never seen this place, but can you imagine the memories it leaves a little kid with. 💚🙏
When Ben Stiller made the movie "Night at the Museum" he cast Robin Williams as the animated TR statue.
You mean the wax Teddy?
Thank You Very Much For Your Work. That Inspire Us. Thank You Museum's Employee For Their Service For Future Generation.
I went there alone after living in nyc for 8 years and i spent 7 hours inside! It really is a treasure!
Gosh, this was done before the museum decided to remove the statue of Theodore Roosevelt, one of the greatest presidents. He plays a big role in this video. So very sad that a great institution would cave to a bunch of Jacobins and dishonor itself!
That was done by the very people being controlled by the destructive left and their desire to destroy western civilization. A pox on them!
It was done by the will of the people of the city and with the blessing of his descendant, Teddy Roosevelt IV. It was an American decision process, and it wasn’t destroyed, merely moved.
I’d love to rent the entire museum to just go around and feel like a kid again
and take acid? jk
my fav of course is that giant whale
No need to rent it. Just go! Go early, it will be quieter.
if u live in nyc, you've taken at least 3 field trips here by 5th grade. It's not until now that I'm finally gonna be choosing to go in my adult life, I'm so excited! I wish covid hadn't closed the Hayden Planetarium though!
This is a great documentary, I really enjoyed it. It reminded me of all the reasons I love museums. I'm looking forward to visiting for the first time in March.
How was it?
I treasure the wonder of going here as a kid:)
EXCELENTE VÍDEO 🕒
When I was a kid this was my favorite place in the world and as I got older I coud go here and then later walk 15 or 20 blocks uo Central Park West to The Dakota and the Strawberry Fields John Lennon Memorial.
Whenever I get a chance to go to NYC I love to go here.
I rem.going to the Hayden Planetarium as a kid.Its huge projector look like a giant ant.That was an interesting building.Woody Allen used its interior in his movie Manhattan in one of the scenes with Diane Keaton.
I went there for the first time in 2019, loved it, can't wait to go back, thanks for this
I’ve been to this museum twice it’s one of my all time favourite museums
How on this green earth can anyone give this a thumbs down???
This is so AWESOME and SAD at the same time!!!
So amazing and inspiring❤
This is an ejxcellent presentation of lovingly performed preservation. Job well done, indeed.
With Best Regards To All The Work & Dreaming For This Museum.
It was the late 1960'[s & all through 1970's.It made me be so thankful not to take it for granted
This was Brilliant ty.
I remember I went with my family to new York, but I forgot what year we had gone, but we went to the natural museum, it was very neat to see all the animal's very life like! 😦 it was cool! ☺🐇🐰🐮🐴🐧🐂🐼🐻🐯🐆🐨🐵🐆
As someone who works there it’s crazy to see how much the museums had changed from 2012 to 2023 they should me an upstate version that would be great.
Use to go all the time in my youth, as I lived 4 blocks away on 84th street and Columbus.
You lucky ducky! I had to come in from South Brooklyn by bus and subway.
The dioramas are amazing. This museum does an incredible job.
I'm 62 and I remember going there when I was seven or eight it was the most magestic thing to me haven't been back since wow look how it's grown
thank you
Last time I went there, I saw that Teddy Roosevelt head statue with air pods in his ears.
I finally was able to visit this amazing space in 2013 and could have spent a week there ✨ amazing
NY Natural History Museum is very beautiful.
Great video!
I want to go there so bad
I remember when i first came to this Museum on a field trip with my school in 1965 in the 4th grade it was beautiful, they did a lot of changing since then.
"In the museum he showed his son, in the museum all the world's love."
è muito lindo! Me faz lembrar quando morava no interior. Muitas saudades. e quanto ao Museu;é a expressão de um povo que luta por suas necessidades e sonhos,e o fazem acontecer atravéz de muito trabalho e organização,(maravilhoso)
Loved going there with my dad as a kid.
Happily open once again, but of course with restrictions made necessary by current conditions.
Can't wait to get back!
I love it
Natural history museum thanks.
It’s easily one of the best places to have a field trip to
i lived in a few different states and syracuse. NY was the most exciting to have field trips. some of the best years first to third grade.
imagine pressing your face against glass and not caring about germs. tbh it was kinda gross then but still I just miss it
I always would love to go here
I sure wish I had the change to visit there. gonna just have to be happy with what we got here.
Im going to this one on sunday
A lot of it has changed
I love this museum so very much!!!! I've been there five times and I want to go there again. :D It's my childhood museum! n.n
I used to go here as a kid and yet i still am
As far as human terms go, the Earth will be here forever and will have beautiful vistas and diverse magnificent creatures with or without us. An eternal Eden in a sea of cold darkness.
Thanks God
I visit the museum but didn't have time to visit this part, definitely when i coming back to US i will go :-) amazing dioramas :-)
30:00 I lost any word I can say 'service' I would never be able to agree with that... and feel guilty I mean elephant lives so long and they remember their friends and families. I could never be reason with that not truly
I
Too bad they took the statue of Roosevelt down as he was one of its founders .He also created the National Parks across the country we enjoy.Kudos to him.
That was done by the very people being controlled by the destructive left and their desire to destroy western civilization. A pox on them!
It was removed because it showed a Native American and an African person attending to him like servants while he towered above. Roosevelt's great-grandson, Theodore Roosevelt IV, supported the decision, saying "The world does not need statues, relics of another age, that reflect neither the values of the person they intend to honor nor the values of equality and justice."
Furthermore, the statue was never destroyed, merely moved to the Theodore Roosevelt presidential library in North Dakota
plz help! what is he saying in 1:00 minute? Dioramas of this sort are really...? i cant understand but my homework is to do a script of this
+xa baz "Dioramas of this sort are really the life blood of the natural history museum". :) (good luck on your script! BTW, you can turn on captions on the video to help you out.
THIRTEEN Thank you very much!))
Tom Brokaw at the American Museum of Nashrel Hishry...
and especially his portrayal by robin Williams in the night at the museum films
Love the scat!!!
Magnificent!!
I love it. It is the best.
Dont forget those shrunken heads! Or the giant olmec
The best part in this museum is the show they give about the universe and the stars with whoopi goldberg narrating.. :') awesome
Iman Saleh oh that’s a shame
It's very good !!!!!!
9 year old Roosevelt: creates a natural history museum in his bedroom and writes a book
Current 9 year olds:
Woodly Theodore do you remember when you were in my class in junior high school?
amazing...thank you
Very interesting, but nothing about the new Hayden Planetarium ?
It's a shame you took teddy's statue down after all he done for conservation sad
Great I love
What is that soft song played on the piano..? I'm not quite sure, but it runs from 25:00 to 25:36
Evelyn Orea do you remember when you were in my class in junior high school?
What a shame they took down Teddy's statue!
well, they can't edit the night at the museum movies. oops maybe they'll remove it there too, now
It’s a shame it wasn’t just Teddy on a horse. It was taken down because it showed a representative of Native Americans and Africans standing on either side far below him like servants. Roosevelt's great-grandson, Theodore Roosevelt IV, supported the decision, saying "The world does not need statues, relics of another age, that reflect neither the values of the person they intend to honor nor the values of equality and justice."
I like this.
We used to have a beautiful museum a lot like this in San Francisco, The Academy of Sciences. Sadly it was demolished and replaced by an abomination that more resembles the interior of an Apple store, now I have to visit New York to remember what it was like.
if only other museums and science centers cared so much about their collections
I hope it's not weird coming here alone 😅😅😅
James Rios of course it's not weird gong alone :)
And at night
So they killed the animal to preserve jt?
It's a bit complex, back then zoos were limited in what they could do and maintain (breeding is hard today let alone then) stock, photography and motion picture were still complex and needed HUGE amounts of gear nearby, not too mention colour film poor.
So the only way too show them as they were was this way, it was calculated and they were careful about how it was done (they wrote BIG on it).
They admitted the irony.
no, its like a wax figure.
The Irony right, in the name of science, to preserve them from ourselves...
Duh!
53:30 bro is that girl in the blue peace shirt okay? She looked so genuinely upset lol.
amazing place
Just today I went to this
Dat attention to detail tho!
