@@StreetfilmsCommunity that was such terrible advice. I honestly think they told people that cause they knew there may be a shortage. Level 3 masks most certainly do help block bodily fluid. As long as you remove the mask properly it helps a lot.
@@savage4312 It is funny! 😊 Even in dark times, you have to keep humor up! As long as it is not personal or insulting, keep the jokes coming! English joke: Crime was committed. Police could not identify the suspects, because they were wearing full PPE. They could however exclude all NHS workers! 😂
You now every now and then you come across something like this that will be used to teach people what happened here in the city. Thank you for your work!
I was around 9/11 the city is Already passing the number of deaths from that time. I felt the loss. If we keep having ppl die, it may very well stay like this
@Ronnie Rising Yes, they do, and excess Co2 warms the atmosphere by trapping heat in the Ozone layer. Thats the problem- we are cutting down all the forests so the plants arent eating all our excess Carbon emissions. More trees, less pollution= massive reduction in global warming.
It's sad but true. This really is good for the Earth & planet, it's terrible but we humans have really let are greed get the better of us. I don't like the virus, but I am glad at least one good thing is coming out of this, I hope pollution goes down big-time after.
@Shamoun Kyriakos I'm sorry but I must politely inform you that you are mistaken. Average or small quantities of CO2 are fine yes, but only to a point. If they exceed a certain percentage then it is in fact capable of causing a body harm. Where I fear & feel the confusion is coming from, is the lack of considering how grave and far the extent of deforestation has gone. We no longer have the forests of old that we did even a mere fifty years ago. Much less a hundred. Trees do need carbon dioxide, but...we don't have the trees. Thereby leaving over time larger & larger amounts of Co2 in the atmosphere, which is heating the planet & if nothing else is causing lung problems for those in Beijing & Hong Kong China. Which is why masks are common there. It isn't lies. It's just a point connected to another dire problem, and one that greedy corporations do not want to be addressed or fixed because to fix it will lose them a severe amount of financial game & certain politics in ANY party will contrast the scientific fact & muddy the causes & effects because those same greedy companies will pay them either under the table or upfront for them to argue & nay say what actually is. Listen I work for Starbucks, I love my job, & maybe I am a hypocrit, but I know that somewhere my company is adding to the destruction of the rainforest, so that coffee beans can be farmed. No one is clean, however to say that something is a lie, when it is poorly stated but true, won't help. Also I really felt like someone should inform you of the destruction of the forests around the globe part of the conversation because if we did have the forests then you would in fact be mostly correct. The sad truth of the matter though, is this: we do not. They are gone, however, the good news: If companies like Starbucks could be redirected then maybe, just maybe we can have those trees again? We have to hope so. Thank you for reading & in you're way caring.
Thank you for this. I was a bike messenger there in the early '90s. The only similar circumstance/memory I can think of is when there was a crazy winter storm in winter of '95-ish and they closed Manhattan to all vehicles except emergency personnel. Of course - on the subways and commuter rails we were packed in like sardines (no 6 feet apart rules that week!).
I've been filming private vids all over Manhattan on bikes a few days a week in order to "never forget"... Good job on compare and contrasting older shots. Nicely done!
If anything, it just emphasises the shitty air you're normally breathing in NY and other big cities. As a small village person from Scotland, I love my fresh air, but whenever I go to London, the snot in my nose turns black.
Cycling is the way forward, the world needs to wake up to this. Here in the UK the bike is making a massive come back and I hope it stays big time after the virus has gone. We too can breath fresh air here also.
Very informative video. Here in Philadelphia things are close to normal. I cycle everywhere I go. Friday it was pretty quiet with very lite car and truck traffic. Yesterday and today traffic much more normal. But I did notice a big reduction of pedestrians and jump in bicycle traffic. Looks like we're getting our exercise in, in Philly ! Again, very informative video! PEACE !!!!
Katie M I’m originally from Staten Island and the only time we would go to Manhattan was at night when downtown was calmer like this. It’s not a bad place when it’s 85% empty. Now I’ve moved to the NJ shore. Never going back
Well that is because here in NYC there are almost 9 million of us living within the five boroughs that make up New York City. New York State itself is massive compared in size as far as space goes however in totality the population of NY State is 19.54 million yet it's about 5000 square miles bigger then the UK with a far lower population so throughout the state it would be way less populated. Also certain spots that are just regular active zones out here as well. I live close to Yankee Stadium and in between a mall and a shopping district called Third Avenue and trust me it's like Central Park even right now as scene in this video. After 8 pm it's pretty much dead.
First of all let me say I am so sorry for everything you guys are going through. I am glad you are able to enjoy the beauty that is there. Good Job NY! Awesome self control! We are hoping and praying that the new infections and deaths go down fast. I am glad that you showed the before the NY pause picture since that really highlights the dramatic difference. I live in wedged in the hills and mountains at the edge of the Cascade range in rural southern Oregon. Your quiet is so nice to see. Now our streets in rural Oregon are utterly dead now. I miss seeing people walking, biking and going to Farmer's Markets. People are taking the physical distancing seriously here and I am glad that New York is as well. Since we already stayed 9 feet apart during regular times people feel the need to drive into the mountains to exercise away from one another. Thanks for sharing!
Cicyclists should all be wearing protective glasses in case someone coughs or spits in their eyes . Sunlight and exercise are vital to maintain a strong immune system and it is extremely good for the mind . I think people will lose their minds from "cabin fever" and information overload long before ever catching the virus while cicyling . We are learning more every day about how to deal with the virus so the keeping distance is vital . From what I read the virus does not last long in sunshine The surfaces outside could have the virus so wear thin breathable gloves anyway .
Thanks for the tour. I've haven't been to NYC for 30years. I moved to P.R It sure looks different no bike lane when I lived in.nyc. Born snd raised in Harlem
NYC has had bumper to bumper traffic since the horse and buggy days. Why do you think almost all streets are now one way? The changeover, to relieve traffic congestion, began in the early 1900s, and continues to this day.
Reminds me of "I am legend" I Hamilton (near TORONTO) in Canada HSR wants people on the bus 6 feet apart. Yesterday there were 6 passengers and 2 drivers. One driving and one going to the bus garage at the end of shift. The bus was full no more pickups. They maintained normal schedule but would not pick up anyone. No pickups and the bus gets ahead of schedule because no time is needed to pick up anyone. Slow the bus down do a service adjustment so the drive times are right.
This is always how it should be. By bicycle. Be smart. Stay safe. This is no joke and should not be taken lightly. At this time many cities are implementing citing people without essential work authorization letters in possession.
remember to KEEP EXTRA DISTANCE WHEN FOLLOWING ANOTHER BIKE. If they cough of sneeze, it lingers in the air for minutes. If you ride into their contaminated air space, you can pick up the germs. Cyclist are moving much faster and can ride into the cough spray from another cyclist that is 4-5 car lengths ahead of them. You are correct, it is eerie to see NYC so desolate.
I was out two days ago trying to find a bike and luckily I was able to find one. They really do seem to be selling out. The Walmart I went to the Walmart worker said they stock up and within an hour sell out.
@Rick Gary A world where people aren't forced to leave their houses without it being necessary to make a living, with less queues and traffic jams isn't a good thing?
@Rick Gary I want the option, not the obligation. I hate crowds. It is much better when people are always at least 2 meters away from each other, unless they are in some kind of relationship and want to be close. If I were rich I would never want to use public transportation or even walk on the street. I love being protected inside of a bubble.
@Rick Gary I respect your opinion but I disagree. NYC is nice because of the touristic attractions, the diversity of restaurants and places to go shopping etc. I'd rather have lots of parking space and less people crammed everywhere if I could keep the rest 😆 It's like going to the discoteque, it can be fun, but I do not feel comfortable when it's full of people in a way you can't walk without bumping. That's my taste though, some people like chocolate, some like vanilla 😁
some of the groceries should tape the sidewalk down 6-7 feet apart while the people side in line for supplies, they feel so much closer than the recommended range, stay safe
This reminds me of the scene from on the beach almost surreal to see New York with almost no cars compared to the way it is normally., the city that never sleeps right now is taking a well-deserved rest.....
It's so wonderful to see so many walking around the city kind of videos. That's what I'd do in real life if I could but obviously, I can't afford that. thanks
Was in Brooklyn Navy Yard at same time of your video. Went up Canal over Manhattan Bridge and it was like driving on Easter Sunday. Great video. Thanks for sharing as others should see this.
That was very well done, thank you! New York sure looks different from when I lived there back in the early 1970s! And of course the city looks different now for what it would have looked like a month ago.
thank you for your sharing on the current street view of NYC as a cyclist, which gives us a direct presentation of the existential impact that the virus has bought to the city, and what is really appreciable is the comparison of same sites' view with the previous norm that conveys the degree of impact.
I haven't been there in over 21 years maybe a little more.It has changed a lot from the videos you show.I miss it a little but could never do all that commuting as i use to when i was younger.
Clarence, I see you are riding a WorkCycles bicycle. I guess very few Americans know how to appreciate the quality of this bicycle. Good for you for having this bicycle. As to the corona virus … brace yourself. Expect it to get worse. Regards from The Netherlands. p.s. Your backlight seems disconnected. Looks like you have a Shimano 8 gear hub. Good for the city. I own a WorkCycles with a Rohloff hub. Which is more suitable for hilly terrain. But I digress. What I want to say is for you to try a leather Brooks bicycle saddle for this bicycle. Very comfy. Both in summer as well as in winter time. Disadvantages: a) It requires more care and maintenance, b) it is slightly heavier, and c) the coating will color/contaminate your pants slightly.
Very cool video and thank you for making it Creative Commons. If I use it I’ll be sure to credit you in the description along with a link to your channel
I am at home watching virus pandemic and zombie movies for 5 days now! Think I will becoming zombie soon if this is not over within the next few days..... From Bangkok 😄
Try next few months, at least! Cases are still going up in Thailand. Meanwhile, binge 'Containment'. It was a 13 episode series that aired in 2016. Pretty good show. Really freaky in hindsight. ruclips.net/video/5jSHuPcenUM/видео.html
Honestly it’s the same in every single city and there is not a single excuse for them to equip some staff with proper gear and let them work on the roads , to fix random stuff , fix the roads , pavements , clean them and even more , clean trains , fix more stuff . They don’t have any excuses , it’s amazing how many people turn a blind eye on this subject .
In our country You can only go out for 3 reasons during lockdown: groceries, you have to see a medical professional or you work for essential services for example: medical, military, police, government worker etc. You cannot leave your house at all. Not even to walk your dog or exercise. All other shops are closed. Only chemists and grocers are open. When you leave your house you have to wear a mask. At present ou numbers are still low. We looked at China and Singapore and are following their example. Our death rate is very low Pray God we keep it so. Best regards Sunny South Africa xx
With factories, planes and cars idled, this should be the cleanest air we've had in a long time.
It is!
That’s the truth lol.
China had the Lowest C02 emission in a long time
@@arnold1112 You realize this was 12 days ago when doctors in NYC were telling us that masks are useless? Of course now they tell us the opposite.

Yea exactly. It's going to show that thousands of people died because idiots like this couldn't stay home for a few weeks.
Im lovin it. I wish the city was like this all the time.

Be careful what you wish for lol

And wash your hands regularly.

This is good for environment and animals, CO² gasses have fallen by 25% this week in america

Plenty of fresh air in Duns.
Bicycles are better at social distancing than cars, buses or trains.
Indeed.
Gabriel G I think (hope) he means a single-rider bicycle creates more social distancing than car pooling.
social distancing? You mean physical distancing.

I was out two days ago trying to find a bike and luckily I was able to find one. They really do seem to be selling out. The Walmart I went to the Walmart worker said they stock up and within an hour sell out.
The world could be a bit more like this if they allowed more people to work from home and also automatized more processes.

Need Resident Evil theme song....
In our country You can only go out for 3 reasons during lockdown: groceries, you have to see a medical professional or you work for essential services for example: medical, military, police, government worker etc. You cannot leave your house at all. Not even to walk your dog or exercise. All other shops are closed. Only chemists and grocers are open. When you leave your house you have to wear a mask. At present ou numbers are still low. We looked at China and Singapore and are following their example. Our death rate is very low Pray God we keep it so. Best regards Sunny South Africa xx
