Entire cities, towns, villages, counties, regions have been destroyed, are being destroyed right now, or will be in the future. Your comment is 100 imbecilian and yeah I just made that word up.

    There’s so much to say in this video/pictures.
    It was nice seeing actual clouds in pictures in this video
    The tower near the end was just incredible for 1865.
    Also some of the buildings made of bricks looked old in the picture
    The bridge in the beginning / Chesapeake and the bridge at the end with the wood supports were hard to comprehend how the bases were made
    The later bridge has a railroad track in it
    Too many old buildings to talk about so I’ll keep it here

    I noticed that the "Civil War" history altogether has no photos of actual combat, for example, the famous sea battle of the Monitor vs Merrimack in Mobile bay went on for hours surrounded by many people watching the spectacle and not one photo exists, only paintings and drawings. Where are photographs of the huge famous civil war battles? Photos of the battle aftermath and battlefields full of corpses? I see destruction, soldiers posing, but no war. Great video as always on this channel. Thank you.

    • @bernarddavis1050
      @bernarddavis1050 5 дней назад

      It's because the photographic plates used in those days needed such long exposures that no moving object could be clearly photographed. Film and movie cameras lay far in the future. There were plenty of still photos of corpse-strewn battlefields, some of them carefully re-arranged, but no pictures of actual combat for that reason, quite apart from the fact that camera equipment (which was large and immobile) set up in a combat zone would have been a highly visible target. Combat photography even today is difficult simply because nobody in real action wants to be seen.

    • @andrestrishak8292
      @andrestrishak8292 3 дня назад

      @bernarddavis1050 not true. They cameras perfectly capable of photographing troops in motion and even had cameras that can take several pics in order and they had zoom lenses. See what was available in the catalogs of the day rather than the bs narrative.

    • @bernarddavis1050
      @bernarddavis1050 3 дня назад

      @@andrestrishak8292 OK, show references to some of these "catalogs". We are not talking about lenses here, but exposure times. Wet plate technology, the standard until well after the Civil War was over, typically had exposure times of 5 to 10 seconds, far too long to capture moving objects without severe blurring of the image. If there were cameras back then capable of photographing troops in motion, you can be sure they would have been used for that purpose, so where are the pictures? They don't exist, and for the reason I have explained. People who hint they have been suppressed for some nefarious purpose are simply nuts.

    go to 10:55 "strawberry plains bridge"
    look at the shadow of the fallen timber piece.
    now look at the shadow of the "soldier" standing on the bridge.
    the two shadows are way out of parallel.
    in an untouched photo all shadows fall exactly parrallel.
    this means the photograph is "photo shopped".
    this means that ALL of the photos (allegedly) from one george n banard are suspect.
    this is but one small example of the kinds of anomalies that plague so many of these older photographs.
    I ave been trying to point these anomalies out for months on jarred's channel.
    I don't necessarily believe jarred is trying to be deceptive (tho, who knows), but when he reads the narratives of these photographers, I wonder if he ever considers that the narrative, like the suspect photos, is an absolute hoax.

    The fortified bridge is such a great example of finding something.... we're told they built that bridge and, if that is to be believed then why are the fortifications so cheap? Why not make them out of steel or anything other than wood? It's literally wood attached to the bridge. A decent cannon could take out those "fortifications" in the blink of an eye.

Probably reason there’s not action photography pics is cause they were murdering they inhabited people,destroying the cities and homesteads what we’ve been told about civil war is make believe. Theirs something a lot more dark and evil that went on. That’s why we don’t see the action battle pics.

      No one was fighting anyone when these photos were taken. these photos are not documenting any so-called "Civil War". They are documenting what was left after the "winners" took it all from the "losers". Nothing to do with "Slavery" and nothing to do with the "North v. South"...everything to do with power and money and control over the masses and the lands. always question everything that does not make any sense to you. Not a damn thing we see in any of the photographs or read in the "history" books makes sense in regard to that "Civil War" or the era therein. And these photographs mostly seem to depict people staged around a theme they want us to believe when really they are just showing ruins of war torn structures and long abandoned buildings.

    • @bernarddavis1050
      @bernarddavis1050 5 дней назад

    @ 5:10, that bridge? Who in the horse n' buggy hell built those footings? You'd figure it must have been built the same year they landed at Plymouth Rock or something. Again, it looks way too old and way too 'old world'.
    When I see this, I see ancient or very old footings and a upper portion that was built later on, by early Americans. Early Americans found the footings spanning a river and built a new deck. For anyone curious, these bridge combos exist across the entire continent. Old footings built with beautiful stone, almost seamless construction in some cases, topped with a wrought iron deck of some sorts. And often, a wooden deck was the predecessor to the wrought iron. The Chesapeake Bay bridge @5:35 mark is a perfect example of what I mean.
    My city has a few of these bridges (London, Ontario, Canada)

Who do you think built the great cathedrals of Europe? Those skills were brought to America by immigrants from the very beginning of European settlement.
