    Simple, mundane people watching. This footage will be invaluable to future historians. So important that it's preserved.

    I love the comments going "people looked so much thinner/energetic". I just came from Santa Monica Beach and it looks more energetic than in these clips. And people are still thin. It's upper middle class Cali.
