60 years ago today, April 8th, Yuri Gagarin was chosen as the crewman for the Vostok 1 mission, with Gherman Titov as his backup. 4 days later he would become the first man in space, completing a single orbit over the course of just over an hour.
"As his close friend and cosmonaut colleague Alexei Leonov tells it, then-premier Nikita Khrushchev cornered Gagarin "So tell me, Yuri," he asked, "did you see God up there?" After a moment's pause Gagarin answered, "Yes sir, I did." Khrushchev frowned. "Don't tell any one.""
Apparently the BBC has the balls to straight up deny uploading the HD versions of some of this footage because apparently sharing one of the most important events in history is something only they should have the privilege of doing, despite showing no interest in doing so... So I spend 6 hours tracking down the older versions to fill the gaps.

It's quite a beautiful thing that the first man to enter space, the representative of all mankind in the cosmos, wasn't a billionare. He wasn't a Rockefeller, a Rosthchild, a king or aristocrat. He was a worker, a person just like any one of us, the son of a carpenter and a milkmaid. Yuri had the honor that he did not because he was wealthy, or of noble birth, but because of his character and qualification for the job. In that one orbit, mankind and the working people had won, even if it was only for a brief moment.
Very well said.
Think so
Así fue, pero no podemos dejar de lado que era parte de la propaganda, hubiera sido incoherente que no fuera un hombre con ese perfil.
Un gran hombre Yuri.
@@franbtt4482si fuese solo por la propaganda, hubiese sido un oficial del partido, un general o un demagogo.
Compara eso con los americanos, que antes de iniciar el programa espacial con la fuerza aérea, consideraron lanzar a "stuntmen", hombres de espectáculo, al espacio, antes de que entendieran que no es simple ni sencilla la tarea, y que cada avance forma parte no solo de la historia humana sino que del desarrollo de un posible nuevo frente de batalla.
Lo que destaca el comentario, es como quien salió a "dar la cara" por la humanidad, no fue quien fuese dueño ni poderoso, sino quien estuvo dispuesto a ofrecer la vida por el momento. En la práctica, quien hace los logros y deja la primera marca en la historia no es el poderoso ni el pudiente sino que el hombre común, y así ha quedado demostrado en este caso y siempre.
Couldn't have been any other way, working people build society.
Son of a milkmaid and a farmer, worked at a steel foundry, first in space.
Soviet ideals as its best
the soviets specifically chose poor people to create an image of equality, I know this as a person whose relatives lived there
By the way, don't forget that Yuri flew into space thanks to Korolev, a Ukrainian by nationality. Who was sent to a camp in the Far East in the 30s literally for no reason. Where he almost died and returned back by great luck
@@muller1424 I don't understand how Korolev being a Ukrainian, deminishes anything. I mean, Baikonur is litterally in Kazahkistan. And probably a lot of enginneers came from all others Soviet Republics.
@@wolfpack571 Many engineers worked on this, but it was Korolev who made the greatest contribution to Gagarin’s flight; a city near Moscow was even named after him.
Some of you would ask why Gagarin was a hero. Imagine a ten-storey building. Now imagine it all is a rocket fuel. You are Gagarin sitting on the top, tied to a little chair. And we ignite it saying: "Don't worry, Yura. This time our calculations must be correct".
But soviet rockets don't fail just like soivet planes never crash

It will be funny in 200 years when people mix up the timeline of technological advancements. Wait people went to the moon before the Internet?
thats gonna be fucking hilarious i can just imagine.
This comment will be an historical document if MajorSamm manages to not get banned
If only people knew about the electromagneticgravitic craft being made during the Cold War that made rockets look like nothing but antiquated WW2 tech, and all that aerospace history is in deep darkness, shrouded in secrecy for decades…..

Space race was probably the best part of cold war. This music fits so well with Vostok 1 footage.
It was the best time for research development now it's pretty slow or sometimes even stagnant
@@savedemperor8024 our institutions have been invaded by those too concerned with ideology to bother with reality. They refuse to take risks and endeavor towards the future through action, preferring to stay within the safe confines of language where wrongs can be twisted to rights through subjectivity and apology as opposed to action where there are things that can never be undone. We lost sight of the stars because we became too stuck arguing about the true shade of the sky.
That's right, you'll even pay attention to fiction, where during the Cold War there were films of people quietly flying around the galaxy, and now there are no such films anymore. The Cold War was a time when everyone believed that a little more and the colonization of space would begin.

It’s a shame Gagarin is so little remembered. But then again, we are heading towards a society where even Armstrong is being forgotten.
One of the largest boulevards in my birth city (Belgrade, Serbia) carries his name and there is also small monument dedicated to him.

quote from Vladimir Komarov's wikipedia articile
Before leaving the Moon on Apollo 11's Lunar Module, Neil Armstrong's final task was to place a small package of memorial items to honor Soviet cosmonauts Komarov, Yuri Gagarin, and the Apollo 1 astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee.[35] Komarov's and Gagarin's name also appears on a commemorative plaque left at Hadley Rille on the Moon by the commander of Apollo 15, David Scott in memory of 14 deceased NASA astronauts and USSR cosmonauts, along with a small sculpture entitled Fallen Astronaut, on 1 August 1971. This plaque and the sculpture represent those astronauts and cosmonauts who died in the quest to reach outer space and the Moon.[36]
For the scientists, engineers, and astronauts/cosmonauts of either program there was always more mutual respect than antipathy. Politicians, jingoists, hollywood do not understand this.
All for a chance to reach the sky
Rip to those brave heroes
the soviets wanted many heros for their country, little did they know they would create a hero for humanity
Damn niceli sayed

They're all hanging out laughing at our inability to get along down here.
@Hijo David sus!
Doesn't matter what your nationality is. Yuri's flight into space was one of the greatest achievements for all mankind. He's a symbol, not of Soviet's might, but of the might of humanity.
Да! Но только пролетарской ее части!
you are wrong, in conditions when the world was tormented by the shackles of the Cold War, two states entered the space race, and the Soviet Union undoubtedly invaded the states, Gagarin’s flight is undoubtedly an achievement of all mankind, but the fact that it was organized by Soviet scientists and designers makes it clear about the greatness of the Soviet state, This is the first Soviet cosmonaut in space, it couldn’t be any other way!!!
Son of a carpenter, rose ti the skyes and descended three days later...

He was ready to die. If you are willing to sacrifice everything, you can reach the stars. I think he died as the proudest man the soviet union ever had. And he died with the knowledge that he was the first human seeing earth from orbit with his own eyes, its a nice thing to know.
Not just the Soviet Union.
The World.
There is no borders when it comes to the feelings humanity has for Yuri. These feelings swell inside me and are indescribable. He, along with everyone involved, pushed the envelope beyond anything we had ever done before.

Love that MajorSamm is bringing the brilliant composer Eduard Artemyev into the spotlight with this one
yeah this song is perfect in many ways
Siberiade. So fucking cultured
I'm a simple man I see Yuri Gagarin I like, imagine what it would of been like to be the FIRST man to ever feel the cold true weightlessness of space and actually leave your capsule into the vast void of nothing, both a terrifying and amazing thought, that this man did
Tho yuri wasnt the first to come out of the capsule, that was another soviet cosmonaut wich name I dont remember
@@nicolasoboukhov5815 huh i always thought he was the first to do a full on spacewalk lemme check. oh i am wrong, hes the first in space, not to spacewalk thats Alexei Leonov whoops lol
@@nicolasoboukhov5815 Alexei Leonov
He visited my home town of Manchester and gave a talk at the Trade Union Conference. My family have his autograph somewhere!
I'm not sure if the North West Film archive has any digital resources, but it was filmed and it's well worth looking up if you're interested!
He died

Man it makes me sad that we stopped heading for the stars,I wish I can live to see the day where man goes back to the stars and possibly mars
We will get there
NASA’s Artemis Program is planning on sending astronauts back to the moon in 2024. They recently just completed their final green test on the SLS Rocket that’s going to take them there not too long ago
@Aidan Hand Uh, yes, you can?
@Aidan Hand I do not know them, no.
Space is actually inside of bigfoot, we just need to reach him first
The color footage really makes this historical figure very relatable. In him we can see another human, another simple man.
Man, he was a beautiful man. Both he and Niel Armstrong were good-looking, but the way Yuri smiles is just nice.
"The smile of Yuri Gagarin is everywhere!"

He showed to the world to look past politics, and international rivalries, to truly look and say, "we did it" we sent a man to space, it doesn't matter that it was you supposed "rivals" we still fucking sent a goddamn man to space, think about that, we aren't all so different.
A hero for all humanity
Спасибо! До слёз!
12 апреля 1961 - день рождения Космонавтики! Юра, спасибо!
A simple man for his friends and family, but a hero for the world.
Those first guys, Gagarian, Glenn and the many men who would give their lives for the exploration of space should always be remembered
For all one can say about communism, the Soviet Union went from an agrarian nation to spacefaring in 40 years, amidst a devastating war AND fleeing German talent mostly seized by their rivals.
Well the US and Germany did the same in the same time (if we start on the great depression), but they didn't starve ⅓ of their people
@@Bolognabeef Do not forget also 100 billion children eaten by Stalin and 10 trillion German women dissolved in the acid of the corporation over one hundred percent by Beria.
@@Bolognabeef starve 1/3 of their people?
Youre a clown.
Yet in 2022...1 in 4 kids in the usa go hungry...
@@Bolognabeef Stalin didn't starve one third of his people. The Holomodor may or may have not taken as many as the Jews in the Holocaust. But that wasn't the same percentage in the Soviet Union even 10 percent. Maybe a third of Ukraine who knows there!
Don't forget the horror of Stalin. They did all that but they did it terribly inefficient. The bureaucracy didn't work well at all thus it's downfall.
To the 62nd anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's historical day of being the first human to enter space. He will live forever!
Gagarin hero of my childhood
I've been on love with this man for ages now wtf is wrong with me
Nothing is wrong with you. This is perfectly normal behaviour.
No homo but he is handsome
Indeed he is, "the smile of Yuri Gagarin is everywhere"
"If someone said Russians don't smile, show them Gagarin."
I'm an even simpler man, I see something from MajorSamm, I hit like and listen to it at least 4-5 times.
I love how you went through effort of finding older footage because bbc wouldn't let you use the HD content. I love the vids you create!
The men and women who went to space, the men and women who saw the last frontier themselves with their eyes were blessed to see the dark abyss for the first time, where mankind never went before.
Sadly not many people know him as much as Armstrong
A masterpiece! greetings from Brasil
Bom saber que o pessoal daqui também acompanha o canal!
The first man in space… so great…
A simple son of a shoemaker as the first man to be our cosmic messenger. Not some bourgeois exploiter. Truly a humble man and hero of all mankind. Glory to the world proletariat

The first man to exit our home planet....
The most lonely 90 minutes a man has ever been trough...

these are pages of history, of our history, which tell of visionary men and the heroes who made their ideas possible. Smiles and pride of popular homeland. Because the success is not of one man but of a nation that unity has given lessons to that part of the world that prided itself on calling itself the West. The barriers are set by men but the visionaries are able to break them down for themselves but above all for the sake of those voices that do not scream but whisper to be heard. An Italian friend. Glory to the peoples of the world.
Almost cried. All time favourite movie and composition for me, combined with some of the most favourite people and materials.
RIP, geniuses, Sergey Korolev, Eduard Artemiev.
What a brave soul. Bless Yuri Gagarin.
Internet has to be made ONLY for this video
Yuri, total rock star. Can’t imagine what it must have been like for him. Great video once again
Too few people know about Artemiev, and even then it's mostly through Stalker. Nice work, as always.
