A commercial for Nick News episode "giants" featuring Robin Williams... I saw that in a random vhs recording video this summer and now I can't find it...
There are so many videos that are lost and I miss them but they are mostly about 15 second meme videos like "Kirb" 😂 There is a long version but short version was better 😂
@@LovelyAngel., I remembered there was every Titanic video from when I first discovered YT in early 2008 at 7 (notably ones done in LEGOs or slideshow tributes with pictures etc). Though there's some that still exist. But a more recent piece of YT lost media that I want to see be re-uploaded out of curiosity again (but remains unlikely) is the Trap Lore Ross' Ready Player One rant video titled "Is Ready Player One is Garbage?" from almost 3 years ago. This was when he went by the name Ross Hacks. Unfortunately, the video was taken down sometime in the summer of that same year likely in July. And his whole channel was deleted sometime by late January of 2019 after I last visited it before New Years Eve.
3GI’s smash bros tournament 4 behind the scenes honestly that video was my childhood since it was the first live action smash video I’ve seen, sad to see it’s not available anymore but I can give details on what it was like The BTS featured a scene when the Pikachu mascot costume shot Rosalina with a taser gun being painfully removed from the actors body, small amount of blood was shown. another scene featured when the dog ran away from one of Mega mans attacks, the producer (I think) got a phone call about a missing dog with a red hat on its head (who was dressed as Rush) one scene featured the Doc Louis bloopers, I believe the Rosalina scene and Doc Louis scene were the reason it was deleted since it unfortunately featured blackface. one small scene features the Charmander costume dancing around with a spark in its mouth. and a scene of the final match, Mega man vs Shrek. when Mega man throws the mattress on Shrek after MM’s small pop off it is shown that the Shrek actor accidentally fell onto and crushed on glass shards but luckily didn’t get injured and that’s all that I can recall from the behind the scenes video. only clips partially available: the Rosalina taser removal scene can be seen in Smash bros tournament 5 before the fighters enter the ring The charmander dancing scene being at the end of Smash tournament 3
BlastphamousHD TV and charmx have many missing videos. There's also a missing sir spooks video talking about deep web videos and then there's the original version of cinemasins's everything wrong with jumanji: welcome to the jungle that played the titular guns n roses song when he was about to finish saying roll credits and stopped at cr and said oh.
I’ll elaborate on why I believe it’ll be mostly short-lived FOX shows. You see, FOX had a reeeeeeally shitty marketing team back in the early 2000s, letting go of shows that had so much potential such as Kitchen Confidential, Arrested Development (seasons 1-3), and more.
yes!!! Ive been looking for the pitch pilot of Generator Rex!! I believe theres only one pic of Rex's design of that time, he had flames for hair it was pretty neat!
I like how popular lost media has gotten in the past several years. One piece of media at a time and eventually all sorts or cooky stuff could be accessible in the future. I’ve always found it interesting that the fact that these things are lost can add a layer of mystique to it, even if it isn’t even important.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard of “lost memes”. As much as it would be funny to see I really do think that it could be an interesting subject to go into
Believe it or not there's actually good potential for something like this. Because of copyright issues, backups being lost, or the removal from the creators themselves, there's a lot of genuine internet culture history that's been lost. Arguably the most famous example is the complete deletion of the Machinima channel from youtube which has removed so much of the early youtube gaming era's memes and inside jokes. Moreover, there's a few minor viral videos that have had millions of views that have also been lost like the original Through The Fire And Flames parody that hasn't since been found.
Well, I know of a lost meme, the OCD otter. Most of the memes were taken down after the original photographer of the animal filed a lawsuit for unlawful use of copyrighted imagery.
As a huge fan of lost media, I'm seriously hopeful that you're going to get big some day. Keep up the good work! Here are some future episode ideas that I'd love to see you cover: - Lost media that has been found but then lost again - Preserved, but not released lost media, where we know for a fact that it exists and who has it, but they are either unwilling or unable to release it - Media that is not yet lost, but is living on borrowed time unless more advanced efforts are made to preserve it. For example, the Gameboy Color Pokemon games can be easily emulated, but the internal clock that maintains their calendar cycle can only work on the original consoles, which are slowly deteriorating and will soon be completely unplayable
@@42Fossy Go to a video of the hayley mills version of the song uploaded by a RUclipsr called swedefirebird70. There'll be a comment on there by a guy called badboyblue4u.
@@wethole The Drake and Josh pilot was available online for a short time on (I believe) the director's RUclips channel, but copyright took it down again shortly after.
Glad this channel exists! Here is another story of lost media for you: In the Vietnam War the US Army recorded all of it's data on a certain kind of computer tape. There was a format change over the years (more than one) and now those tapes are completely unreadable. Basically the Army's information on the day to day operations of the entire Vietnam conflict is unreadable. I cannot personally confirm that this is true, but that's what I heard. Maybe someone else knows more. Format changes wipe out media, that is for sure. You mentioned silent movies. Something like 90% of them are lost! A lot of them were crap the day they were made, but they also had great geniuses back then, just as now or any other time. 90% of the movies from a twenty year period is a hell of a loss. Same thing happened with black and white movies when color came in. Good, bad, and terrific, they were scrapped. It has happened again with VHS tapes. Some movies can only be found on VHS! They never got transferred to DVD. As the DVD format fades away we will have more losses.
I love how outside the box you are with this stuff Most of us know of lost media with things like cartoons and such but I've genuinely never seen someone tackle historical things. Thats creativity man Awesome job
I really appreciate how you handled the Fall of a Nation story. That was a great way to talk about something sensitive without reinforcing its hateful and harmful themes and imagery. I think this channel also once included a brief list of anti-suicide resources when discussing Kurt Cobain? Very thoughtful and ethical use of your platform!
You know what's more harmful than racist history? Running away from it and pretending it never happened. If you don’t acknowledge history and racist things such as The Birth of a Nation, you create more racism and more problems. It’s very important to preserve racist history to show how racist the world was at one point, to learn from it and evolve, lest we make the same mistakes. Also, last time I checked, the people who erase history because it offends them or doesn't line up with their views aren't usually considered the good guys. History is to be preserved, not erased, hurt feelings be dammed.

Whenever I see one of these videos covering Puppet lost media, it's only a section or two in a larger video, or it's just The Muppets instead of also some more obscure content.
@@teh_supar_hackr Yeah, I feel like puppetry in general doesn’t get nearly as much attention or recognition as a medium like animation or video games do, let alone on sites like RUclips (and especially not in lost media discussions) And even when people do bring up puppetry, the conversation tends to almost exclusively revolve around the works of Jim Henson (I love Jim Henson stuff btw, but it can be annoying when people don’t acknowledge there’s more to puppetry then just Sesame Street or Muppets). I just hope in the future people start to take puppetry seriously as an art form, and recognise that the medium is a lot more creative, inventive and way more diverse overall then they tend to give it credit for.
The adventures of twizzle Gerry Anderson's first tv series they have the pilot where is the rest of it, it has to be out there some where also what about pikins and sleneko with ratafak plachta
You're definitely the best lost media channel on here. In the beginning I didn't know how it'd do considering the channels already out but yours has become my favorite
Saki Sanobashi/Go for a Punch immediately comes to mind but I’m not going to say they’re wasting their time, they’ve found so many other lost animes that wouldn’t have been found without it
Loved this video so much, as someone who studies history and is probably going into archival/museum studies, this really shows the importance of archival especially in the modern day. Like there are no excuses now for people not to archive important pieces of media.
I love the argument that the moon landing was fake. Did you know that it would have been more expensive back in the day to fake the moonlanding then it would to land on the moon.
First of all, I love your channel. Lost media is one of my new obsessions. I just found "Zoom: America's Kids Respond", and I'm thrilled to bits about it. I'm downloading the episode right now, just to make sure it doesn't get lost again. I'm paranoid now about making sure we don't lose anymore media.
7:45 just a nitpick. Walt Disney's Snow White is the first full-length feature CEL/HAND DRAWN animated film. The first Full feature animated film as a whole is The Adventures of Prince Achmed by German animator Lotte Reiniger from 1926 which uses paper cutouts and runs to 65 minutes. Disney LOVES redirecting people away from this and often use deceptive language to try and keep hold of that title of "first" by using quantifiers or conveniently using "DISNEY'S first full length feature." But yes. Snow White is not the first full-length feature animated film.
The remastered Moon landing footage from Apollo 11 was in the 2018 documentary is enough for me. We saw how the footage looked in the Mission Control room in Houston and we know that the signal was pretty bad and people at homes couldn't see the footage clearly so it's probably the cleanest this footage ever looked.
Why do I get the feeling for the Lincoln one, the reporters just didn't want to write the entire speech because it was so long? Publisher: I paid you to get the speech and you come back with NOTHING?! Reporter: Uuh, no! I was....uh, OVERTAKEN by how BEAUTIFUL the speech was that my mere penmanship could not capture the strength it produced! You had to be within the crowd to understand the TRUE fires of passion of what-! Publisher: Get out.
This NEEDS a part two! A good candidate if you were going to do a part two is the lost recording of Rutherford B. Hayes giving a speech, first recording of a president, but the recording cylinder was lost. It’s sad we will never get to hear the voice of the most uninteresting person to have ever been in charge of anything ever.
Massive props to you for not showing any clips of "Birth of a Nation." It's the little things you put in your videos that make me really appreciate them :)
I'm so incredibly thankful that NFL Films stitched together the first Super Bowl. That's just far too iconic of an event to not preserve. I was so hyped when they announced that they were airing it on NFL Network in 2016. I believe that they aired it because they were airing every single Super Bowl in the lead up to that years Super Bowl.

Another piece of historical lost media is the 1927 film Wings. It was the very first movie to win Best Picture and it went missing for decades until a copy was found in a French film archive in 1992.
Could you do a second video on lost pieces of literature? I got some ideas for you: - "Love's Labour Won" by William Shakespeare: a lost Shakespeare play that was a sequal to the romantic comedy "Love's Labour Lost". - "The Isle of Dogs" by Ben Johnson: a lost satrie play from Elizabethan, England that was banned due to insulting Queen Elizabeth I and members of her royal court. - "The Annals of the Kings of Israel" and "The Annals of the Kings of Judah": two lost books quoted by the Old Testament that served as source material for the biblical "First Book of Kings" and "Second Book of Kings". - "The History of Egypt" by Manetho: Manetho was an ancient Egyptian historian who recorded the history of the pharaohs; his original text is lost but he is used as a source by other ancient historians. - "Q source": the theorized original source of the Gospels and supposedly based on the original teachings of Jesus. - The lost plays of the ancient Greek playwright Sophocles.
12:50 Those who don't know, Claudette Colvin was the first woman that was arrested for illegally sitting on the bus, not Rosa Parks. She didn't gain any publicity because Rosa was afraid the media will catch on and Claudette would get into a lot of trouble.
Despite the negative history of Birth of a Nation, ALL films, no matter how disgraceful, should be preserved. Erasing the past is just asking for history to repeat itself
that is very important! it’s very important to preserve racist history to show how racist the world was at one point! getting rid of that then creates more problems, also his whole “showing black leaders” thing was extremely pandering and i could see right through the facade he was putting on
I wanted to thank you for talking about the Abbey Road special since it is surprisingly not talked about much in the fandom. I hope this will make the search just a little bit easier.
Tbh a lot of our history is heavily lost films, games, toys, writings, etc. As i tried so much to look it up and buy stuff from the past it’s hard ngl as it’s either gone for good he my own art i made is lost or gone forever so anyone who found and has my paintings and drawings from my childhood your lucky got a once in a life time piece.
The Spiderman 4 and Shrek 5 had me dying at the end. But serious note, imagine if the lost 18.5 min was about Nixon funding the war on drugs or some CIA assasination attempts or something
i think it is ironic to say the birth of a nation is incredibly important in history despite being horrific and then dont show any of it, without proper acknowledgement which yes, includes sometimes having to SEE it, will just cause history to repeat.
Do you know what is up about the 80's seasons of Saturday Night Live? I've read that they've never been available for any kind of home release / streaming until Peacock, but even then some of the episodes are only nine minutes long on Peacock. I think all of the episodes are (illegally) preserved by some magic, but why it be like that??
So I know it's not too important and probably is gone for good, but a good chunk of John Laurens' letters to Alexander Hamilton are missing, as well as (*i think*) all of Elizabeth Schuyler's letters to Hamilton as well. It probably wasn't much that they wrote since Hamilton said in letters to the two of them that they didn't write back much, but its still fascinating to me imo
5:30 The someone who put that in Rock Band is me, allow me to use this plug to say I really like your videos, and I was quite surprised to see this one of all the songs I've done in the game in a random video about lost media 😎
Just discovered your channel. I really enjoy these videos, you do incredible work. My suggestion would be lost Saturday Night Live sketches/musical performances. There are a lot of great mythical moments on SNL that you can’t find videos of. I’m sure they aren’t truly lost. But not made public for various reasons. In any case, keep up the great work.
Your videos are always so high quality and you have a real talent for finding and presenting information that hasn't been reused over and over again! An idea: Lost hijacked recordings. Because of their random nature, a lot of signal hijacks weren't caught on tape. It might be interesting to see what you can dig up about it
Not to be pedantic, but snow white wasnt the first feature length animated film. That title goes to El Apostol, a 1917 argentine film which predates snow white by 20 years. This movie is also completely lost, so if you havent covered it yet it would be a great subject for a future video!
You should cover historical lost media more because there’s a lot, one of my favorite pieces that I’m beginning to search for is the Appeal of June 18th. It was a speech given by Charles de Gaulle to occupied France calling for the people to join him and resist the German occupation, however the BBC didn’t deem it important enough to record and all we have is the transcript with some minor changes to it. It’s unlikely it’l turn up but a part of me hopes I can hear de Gaulles famous and inspiring speech!
Please do a DEEP DIVE into “the most mysterious song on the internet”, sometimes called “like the wind”. It sounds professionally recorded and produced (in a studio) so I feel like this might be possible to solve! It’s actually an awesome song. 🎵👍 🎶
This reminds me of the INBA Cinemateca Nacional burning in Mexico City in late 70 I believe. There was a lot of silent Mexican movies, a lot of paintings too and important books, a lot of culture was sadly burnt and the only video recording in a documentary form of the 68 Tlatelolco incident
I don't know how much info you could gather on lost scholar papers/medical studies to time but it would be interesting topic. Getting into obscure parts of history, I keep running into works being missing to time (quite a bit being burnt)
You could do a segment on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade broadcasts. All but one are lost from 1946 to 1971. RUclips has the entire 1959 broadcast. I don't know how that was even found, considering that video recording software wasn't invented until 1971. However, the 1982 broadcast is considered to be the holy grail yet to be found. RUclips has some clips as well as 15 minute clips taken from the 1927 to 1929 parades. I just find it interesting....
6:36 Just an interesting fact: the recording of Rutherford B. Hayes also is believed to be lost. The earliest known surviving recording of a president talking is of Benjamin Harrison. Due to the degredation of the audio, it sounds like something recorded in hell itself. Here is a fascinating video containing the audio of Harrison (among every president after him): ruclips.net/video/GUZSlXPosmk/видео.html

honestly that video was my childhood since it was the first live action smash video I’ve seen, sad to see it’s not available anymore but I can give details on what it was like
The BTS featured a scene when the Pikachu mascot costume shot Rosalina with a taser gun being painfully removed from the actors body, small amount of blood was shown.
another scene featured when the dog ran away from one of Mega mans attacks, the producer (I think) got a phone call about a missing dog with a red hat on its head (who was dressed as Rush)
one scene featured the Doc Louis bloopers, I believe the Rosalina scene and Doc Louis scene were the reason it was deleted since it unfortunately featured blackface.
one small scene features the Charmander costume dancing around with a spark in its mouth.

I definitely hope so! Lost media is so interesting but not as many people are into it anymore :(
Same
Agreed
Couldn’t be more correct
@@iswearimnotafurry4953 Sorry, But You Made The :( Wrong Lol.
I love the argument that the moon landing was fake. Did you know that it would have been more expensive back in the day to fake the moonlanding then it would to land on the moon.
Yeah, I heard about that on Adam Ruins Everything. Man, the things people will believe.
Also, there’s no way the Soviet Union would have kept something like that a secret during the Cold War.
If there's more "Historical" Lost Media worth covering, I'd love to see a sequel in the future - you've earned my subscription!
Idea: *Pokémon Lost Media*
Done to death. About everyone you know has done it
@@ShadowProductionsXD Ok, I’ll change it to Pokémon Lost Media
@@ShadowProductionsXD Since I changed it to Pokémon Lost Media, I was wondering if Pokémon Live can be found
@@purr-fectcatstudios5195 What was your original idea?
@@CYBER_N0T Lost or Cancelled Movies, but I think it’s probably outdated already because there’s a lot videos talking about it
First of all, I love your channel. Lost media is one of my new obsessions. I just found "Zoom: America's Kids Respond", and I'm thrilled to bits about it. I'm downloading the episode right now, just to make sure it doesn't get lost again. I'm paranoid now about making sure we don't lose anymore media.
7:45 just a nitpick. Walt Disney's Snow White is the first full-length feature CEL/HAND DRAWN animated film. The first Full feature animated film as a whole is The Adventures of Prince Achmed by German animator Lotte Reiniger from 1926 which uses paper cutouts and runs to 65 minutes.
Disney LOVES redirecting people away from this and often use deceptive language to try and keep hold of that title of "first" by using quantifiers or conveniently using "DISNEY'S first full length feature."
But yes. Snow White is not the first full-length feature animated film.
Technically saying that the lost film “el aposel” (1917) would be the first
I can totally see this channel getting alot more popular, keep up with the good work
The remastered Moon landing footage from Apollo 11 was in the 2018 documentary is enough for me. We saw how the footage looked in the Mission Control room in Houston and we know that the signal was pretty bad and people at homes couldn't see the footage clearly so it's probably the cleanest this footage ever looked.
How about Lost Pieces of Media due to being Banned?
Lost paintings (those lost during ww2, garden heist ect) and lost treasures (the amber room, ireland's crown jewels, the florentine diamond, ect)?
Ireland's crown jewels would be a great one, they seem so little known, and those paintings lost in the sinking of the Lusitania etc
Weren’t many fossils also destroyed? I consider that a lost treasure
Why do I get the feeling for the Lincoln one, the reporters just didn't want to write the entire speech because it was so long?
Publisher: I paid you to get the speech and you come back with NOTHING?!
Reporter: Uuh, no! I was....uh, OVERTAKEN by how BEAUTIFUL the speech was that my mere penmanship could not capture the strength it produced! You had to be within the crowd to understand the TRUE fires of passion of what-!
Publisher: Get out.
This NEEDS a part two! A good candidate if you were going to do a part two is the lost recording of Rutherford B. Hayes giving a speech, first recording of a president, but the recording cylinder was lost. It’s sad we will never get to hear the voice of the most uninteresting person to have ever been in charge of anything ever.
two of my favourite things mixed into 1: lost media & history 🥺
The Beatles lost media list it's big af
Massive props to you for not showing any clips of "Birth of a Nation." It's the little things you put in your videos that make me really appreciate them :)
I'm so incredibly thankful that NFL Films stitched together the first Super Bowl. That's just far too iconic of an event to not preserve. I was so hyped when they announced that they were airing it on NFL Network in 2016. I believe that they aired it because they were airing every single Super Bowl in the lead up to that years Super Bowl.
Something that interests me a lot is Cambodia’s lost history. It’s crazy how an entire country’s history and culture can be wiped out like that.
Since we're all -impatiently- waiting for the Loki series to drop on Disney+, how about a video based around lost Marvel media?
That series is trash
Thank you for the Ringo dance
Future ideas:
Lost Media That Never Existed
Lost Media That's Only Rumored to Exist
Lost Media That Will Never Be Found
Lost Media From the 21st Century
Lost News Broadcasts
If you're looking for deep-dive topics:
"The Day the Clown Cried"
Lost Episodes of "Dr. Who"
The unpublished third volume of the "Dangerous Visions" anthology, edited by Harlan Ellison
Happy ypu got a sponsor.
Your channel is great!
Another piece of historical lost media is the 1927 film Wings. It was the very first movie to win Best Picture and it went missing for decades until a copy was found in a French film archive in 1992.
I like seeing how you dive into lost media of all kinds, not ones that have been done over and over again. Keep it up :)
Could you do a second video on lost pieces of literature? I got some ideas for you:
- "Love's Labour Won" by William Shakespeare: a lost Shakespeare play that was a sequal to the romantic comedy "Love's Labour Lost".
- "The Isle of Dogs" by Ben Johnson: a lost satrie play from Elizabethan, England that was banned due to insulting Queen Elizabeth I and members of her royal court.
- "The Annals of the Kings of Israel" and "The Annals of the Kings of Judah": two lost books quoted by the Old Testament that served as source material for the biblical "First Book of Kings" and "Second Book of Kings".
- "The History of Egypt" by Manetho: Manetho was an ancient Egyptian historian who recorded the history of the pharaohs; his original text is lost but he is used as a source by other ancient historians.
- "Q source": the theorized original source of the Gospels and supposedly based on the original teachings of Jesus.
- The lost plays of the ancient Greek playwright Sophocles.
Man, your videos are very good, a greeting from Brazil :)
I love how you showed a clip from the wkuk lincoln skit 😂 now you fded up now you fded up, you have fded up now
I'd definitely love to see a video about lost Cartoon Network or lost Nickelodeon shows. You're doing great Mike!
Nice idea, I would love to see the same.
@@deepdevour2998 same
I'd like to see a LostMedia episode regarding Pokemon, for example mentioning the "Pokemon Live" DVDs that were meant to be released, but cancelled.
And the anime 1998 new year special that Aired once in japan
*Lincoln done his speech*
That one guy:”Can you repeat that again?”
Love this. Maybe do one on “Most controversial Lost Media”
The descriptions of Lincoln's lost speech are like a laundry list of buzz words 🤣
Hey, you not showing those clips from Birth of a Nation and doing what you did was thoughtful and good!
12:50 Those who don't know, Claudette Colvin was the first woman that was arrested for illegally sitting on the bus, not Rosa Parks. She didn't gain any publicity because Rosa was afraid the media will catch on and Claudette would get into a lot of trouble.
Despite the negative history of Birth of a Nation, ALL films, no matter how disgraceful, should be preserved. Erasing the past is just asking for history to repeat itself
that is very important! it’s very important to preserve racist history to show how racist the world was at one point! getting rid of that then creates more problems, also his whole “showing black leaders” thing was extremely pandering and i could see right through the facade he was putting on
Mad respect for not showing the racist stuff surrounding Fall of a Nation. I love your work!
I wanted to thank you for talking about the Abbey Road special since it is surprisingly not talked about much in the fandom. I hope this will make the search just a little bit easier.
Tbh a lot of our history is heavily lost films, games, toys, writings, etc. As i tried so much to look it up and buy stuff from the past it’s hard ngl as it’s either gone for good he my own art i made is lost or gone forever so anyone who found and has my paintings and drawings from my childhood your lucky got a once in a life time piece.
The Spiderman 4 and Shrek 5 had me dying at the end. But serious note, imagine if the lost 18.5 min was about Nixon funding the war on drugs or some CIA assasination attempts or something
i think it is ironic to say the birth of a nation is incredibly important in history despite being horrific and then dont show any of it, without proper acknowledgement which yes, includes sometimes having to SEE it, will just cause history to repeat.
I’d like to see coverage on Lost Media that isn’t technically lost. Or maybe even lost media that was found then lost again. If that makes sense.
There's suprisingly a lot of lost media that was found that was lost again
Do you know what is up about the 80's seasons of Saturday Night Live? I've read that they've never been available for any kind of home release / streaming until Peacock, but even then some of the episodes are only nine minutes long on Peacock. I think all of the episodes are (illegally) preserved by some magic, but why it be like that??
Yay, a new video
And he got a sponsor!
You dont, but i do.
So I know it's not too important and probably is gone for good, but a good chunk of John Laurens' letters to Alexander Hamilton are missing, as well as (*i think*) all of Elizabeth Schuyler's letters to Hamilton as well. It probably wasn't much that they wrote since Hamilton said in letters to the two of them that they didn't write back much, but its still fascinating to me imo
5:30 The someone who put that in Rock Band is me, allow me to use this plug to say I really like your videos, and I was quite surprised to see this one of all the songs I've done in the game in a random video about lost media 😎
It was very nice and thoughtful of you to include pictures and videos of black figures instead of clips from The Birth of a Nation!!
Oh my God I'm addicted to this channel now...and coffee. Gotta have my Pops.
Just discovered your channel. I really enjoy these videos, you do incredible work.
My suggestion would be lost Saturday Night Live sketches/musical performances. There are a lot of great mythical moments on SNL that you can’t find videos of. I’m sure they aren’t truly lost. But not made public for various reasons.
In any case, keep up the great work.
Already becoming a must watch youtuber for me
Your videos are always so high quality and you have a real talent for finding and presenting information that hasn't been reused over and over again!
An idea: Lost hijacked recordings. Because of their random nature, a lot of signal hijacks weren't caught on tape. It might be interesting to see what you can dig up about it
The story about the Lincoln speech is very funny to me. Like what the people said feels straight out of Monty Python
Not to be pedantic, but snow white wasnt the first feature length animated film. That title goes to El Apostol, a 1917 argentine film which predates snow white by 20 years. This movie is also completely lost, so if you havent covered it yet it would be a great subject for a future video!
You should cover historical lost media more because there’s a lot, one of my favorite pieces that I’m beginning to search for is the Appeal of June 18th. It was a speech given by Charles de Gaulle to occupied France calling for the people to join him and resist the German occupation, however the BBC didn’t deem it important enough to record and all we have is the transcript with some minor changes to it. It’s unlikely it’l turn up but a part of me hopes I can hear de Gaulles famous and inspiring speech!
Dude, if it turns out that we actually have a recording of Abraham Lincoln, especially of that one speech... that'd be CRAZY!
Lost history is one of those things the the most likely to be lost to time
Please do a DEEP DIVE into “the most mysterious song on the internet”, sometimes called “like the wind”. It sounds professionally recorded and produced (in a studio) so I feel like this might be possible to solve! It’s actually an awesome song. 🎵👍 🎶
Yeah! :D
This reminds me of the INBA Cinemateca Nacional burning in Mexico City in late 70 I believe. There was a lot of silent Mexican movies, a lot of paintings too and important books, a lot of culture was sadly burnt and the only video recording in a documentary form of the 68 Tlatelolco incident
I don't know how much info you could gather on lost scholar papers/medical studies to time but it would be interesting topic. Getting into obscure parts of history, I keep running into works being missing to time (quite a bit being burnt)
Respect for not showing any "The birth of a nation" footage.
I have an idea for a video! Either (more) The Beatles lost media or the Rolling Stones lost media
Ps: I was here at 744 views
You could do a segment on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade broadcasts. All but one are lost from 1946 to 1971. RUclips has the entire 1959 broadcast. I don't know how that was even found, considering that video recording software wasn't invented until 1971.
However, the 1982 broadcast is considered to be the holy grail yet to be found. RUclips has some clips as well as 15 minute clips taken from the 1927 to 1929 parades.
I just find it interesting....
This was really great!
Could you do one specifically about media or other items lost in natural disasters (fires, floods, etc.)?
The Birth of a Nation was actually a remake of a now lost short film shot using a very early colour process in 1911
Idea: BBC lost media another idea is as well ITV lost media
Maybe the sad story of henner
Or idk docter who
Please tell me what is henner and yeh doctor who is always a good subject for lost media
Is it to do thomas the tank engine I watching a video on it now
nice how you handled the Birth of a Nation part 👍🏽
keep up the good work
6:36 Just an interesting fact: the recording of Rutherford B. Hayes also is believed to be lost. The earliest known surviving recording of a president talking is of Benjamin Harrison. Due to the degredation of the audio, it sounds like something recorded in hell itself. Here is a fascinating video containing the audio of Harrison (among every president after him):
ruclips.net/video/GUZSlXPosmk/видео.html
Awesome video as usual!
As for a suggestion (though I'm sure others have said it): Lost Photos?
Please do “Lost Deleted Scenes” I saw somebody comment this on one of your last vids had a lot of likes
Destruction of the Monument of Ayastefanos (1914), first Turkish movie ever made, lost since 1941.
Not sure when you got to 40k subs but congrats man you deserve it.
New video idea: intentionally lost media like Unus Annus or the audio of that guy getting mauled by a bear from that Werner Herzog documentary.
isnt unus annus all on the internet archive? i remember my bf finding it on there to watch just as he found out it had ended lmao
Congrats on your first Sponsor!
This channel is pure gold.
you should do a compilation of your old videos thats like a hour - 2 hours , you have a soothing voice bruh I could go to sleep to that
