Wow....I feel like I just entered a time warp. As a Pali 1975 grad it was such a kick seeing all those familiar faces and places, many I haven't laid eyes on since that time. It's amazing how the memories start flowing when you see something like this. Thank you so much for posting! Enjoyed the Paul Revere 1972 one also.
I graduated in 1975. This looks like it could be my high school. The amazing thing is these people are all in their mid 60's now. I never thought i would say that.
I was in grade 12, in Ontario Canada when this was filmed! It truly could have been my high school ! It was sooo similar despite the geographical distance! Hardly an overweight kid! Beautiful natural girls! I’m 63 now and still have long hair! Peace to ALL 70’s teens! We grew up in a golden era of social change, amazing music and a cultural Revolution ! Thanks for this post!
It truly is sad how fast time goes by and steals our youth away from us. The kids in this video had it made and didn't even know it and now it's 49 years later. If we could only go back and somehow have the realization how good we had it.
Such a difference from today! Only watched a little, so far, but people aren't so over-excited to be filmed, vs. today, where all some want to do is take selfies. Not to mention they're in the present, as opposed to having their head down, bent over a phone, and totally disconnected from reality. Nice...miss those days!!
Cool old film -- thanks for posting! This was 4 years after my brother graduated from Pali, 2 years after my sister graduated, and 15 months before I started in Pali in Sept, 1976 (Class of 79). I would have been finishing 8th grade at Paul Revere when this was filmed. At 1:43 that might be teacher Jeanne Hernandez standing up on the 2nd floor.
Today, in 2021, those students are 64 years old and about to retire next year from their professional career which we see them here about to start. CRAZY
Probably one of the nicest if not thee nicest, HS in Southern California. Legendary UCLA booster Sam Gilbert's wife was a teacher here. Garnered a very prestigious teaching award while teaching here.
So cool! This is my parents generation, they were both in high school from ‘74-78. Thanks for sharing this. I heard so many cool stories about how easy was to get away with stuff in school. I graduated in 2002 in a new state of the art school and they had cameras everywhere. But of course there was one door down in the hall corner by the maintenance room and most kids would skip through that door when the crew was out for lunch or doing whatever, just had to time it right and if you did sometimes you would get lucky and catch the county public bus and can hop on for a quick getaway.😂😂
The raw quality of this video, as well as other old high school videos like it, give it character. I like watching these videos, they're just interesting. Also, I wonder if the length of this particular video is intentional.
Still have 2 close friends from those days-& I see some fellow classmates on FB- sometimes it doesn’t seem as if any tjme has passed!! The best of times, the worst of times!!!
It’s incredible how much technology has advanced in 50 years I mean just look at that camera footage compared to what now anyone can record in a device the size of palm
The guy in the red baseball cap is still there to this day. He keeps flunking year 12. He thinks he has a good chance of passing this year. Sometimes he feels insecure being the oldest kid in the class and being older than the teacher.
one thing a little frustrating about watching these sorts of things is you sp deseperately wanna know what happenned to these pople / how many are even still alive, etc. but that's impossible. and jesus h. christ look how THIN everybody was compared to now!
I was born, WAY after 1975 but this is interesting. Is this a home video camera?? That might explain the lack of sound in the footage, I watched a home video of my grandma from 1969 when she was a baby and it also had that lack of sound, my idea it was just the low quality of these types of cameras, probably because they were less expensive than TV or movie cameras and that kind of stuff at the time.
I don't see much difference between now and then except that now we don't even give it a thought to do the right thing. Before, at least we gave it a thought to do the right thing before we said, "nah...screw it".
High fructose corn syrup was added to many kinds of pre-packaged food, fast food and most sweetened drinks beginning in 1985. That's why there was so few overweight kids back in the day.
Well that And the kids actually went outside to play. You know- rode bikes climbed trees swam in the creek ( where they Walked to) . Unlike today when they hold the couch down & “play” on their phones. 😂
I learned to do hand stands on my skateboard in the parking lot, wiped out one day and ended up with a 4" long raspberry on the side of my face, metal wheels by the way.
@@The1badgolfer I remember the name but I am not sure if the Cadillac wheels came out right after the metal “death trap” wheels or later than the first soft wheels. We used to go to the lumber yard, Safeway bought the property, we would buy a piece of wood for a buck and screw the wheel bases on with a screwdriver, just eye balling instead of measuring a perfect centered location. Amazing we are still walking.
It was a safer time, more wholesome time, and kids were happy. The family life was prevalent, most believed in God, and our floodgates had not let in our enemies yet.
Racists retards like you call anyone who is against police brutality against black people "enemies" yet you support white racist murderers. Like I said the, quicker your generation dies out the better it is for the country :) And thankfully due to anti-vax stupidity it's republicans that are dying quicker lol.
Back then a kid could record on an 8mm film camera. The technology didn't support sound. It wasn't until the '80s that videotape camcorders were made which could record sound as well.

I was being born in Ontario when this will filmed! (Not really-I was born in October)
@@SJHFotoWell you’re just a Little Whipper-Snapper then! Lol- actually just a couple of years older than my Kids! ✌️
These kids are now in their 60’s now. I graduated a few years later in 1978 and have great memories of the 70’s and 80’s.
Their WW2 vet parents would have only been in their 50s at the time.

Growing up in the 70s seems awesome but growing up in Palisades in the 70s seems soooooooo ridiculously freakin awesome!
Yes it was!
Absolutely love these videos. Times were better for sure. Look no one has a cell phone in the hand so you have their attention. I was two then ..
great I'm addicted to watching this now....🍁
Yeah this is super cool, I eish I could've oived through this time period.
my mom was born in 1975:)) such a cool era
amazing these are kids are approaching 70 now.
That's a chilling thought. Glad I'm 65, approaching 66 in May 2023.
I graduated 8th grade in June 1975. Wow, school started in September.
My freshman year was a blast.
graduated from Pali in 1979... great times great music great memories. now we are all old farts but back then we had the world before us!
I remember around that time my grandmother told me I “had the world by the Tail”. I had no clue what she meant!😂
Terry Cook gets two good looks! Classic vintage stuff. I was in that crowd!
Cheers All '75ers.....Kieron Keady
These looked like such fun days.
Not one cellphone, people just enjoying life

I'm your age and when I see teenagers from the 70s I still see people older than me.
Older but so many of them looked pretty!
Isn't it nice to go back in time if only for a few minutes.......

Mrs.Gilbert was such a sweetheart, nicest teacher I have ever had.
End of my freshman year at another school always nice to look back at simpler times
i’m a sophomore in high school at the moment. Crazy to think that these kids are well into their 60’s now. i’m honestly terrified of time flying 🥲

Back then there was no camcorder. This was most likely recorded on super 8 film.

All it took was one recommended video of a high school reunion for me to fall into a home movie rabbit hole.
Likewise😂 now I’m 5 videos in
I always wonder how Pali look back then in the 70's.
I am a junior class of 2013 :D
try the 60's- What a time then, Shangri La-- the coast not a zoo yet (nor society)
Im class of 2025 and curiosity got me here
@@teachandfunnstuff3127 same lmfao
jeez 11 years ago
I'm a Class of '75-er myself. My high school years were split right down the middle - two in New Jersey, two in Connecticut.
Almost every girl in this video have a similar appearence to Carrie from 1976 movie :o
😂That’s right! Hairstyles? We had One- long straight parted in the middle. ✌️
Everyone is so casually attired for graduation. On the east coast, we were formally dressed (Class of 1980).
My parents were the class of 1973 and 1974 in Pennsylvania. So wild this must be what it was like for them!
So cool....see 2000 babies everyone was young
I grew up in Santa Monica. I was class of 73.
hard to belelive these kids are now in their 60s
Wow-I was in the 1st Summer
Class from Pali-1963-looks the same!!!
Wow what a different world man
A better world
@@FUCKINGENIOUS i think in some cases its better and some cases today is better
I was class of 2008 and it looked exactly the same. ❤️
So many people had long hair back then.

Everyone has that 70's face structure
I remember those days they were great.Class of 73 Monta Vista Cupertino Calif.Would love to see footage from then.
All these young people are already at the end of their lives, some have already died....
Still have 2 close friends from

as if any tjme has passed!!

Hmmm it looks so much cleaner back then than it does now. I’m going into 10th grade at Pali now during the quarantine 😷

They were more physically active,(no video games, pcs, cell phones, gmo laden toxic fake food, etc.).
HS students from that time looked more like college students.
Chads, Jocks, Emos, Sports'O, they all existed back to 1970s.
