I like that every car back then exploded every two seconds and had suspensions like they were made of rubber bands. A normal ride with the family was like riding the roller coaster today.
I have never heard an old time announcer imitate accents like this guy did. I really enjoyed it, really brings out his humanity and further proves people have always been the same.
Doing dialects and accents used to be a needed skill for voice over or even stand-up. Sadly the thin skinned among us can sometimes be too critical of that. The cries range from cultural appropriation to outright racism. And though I can see that in some cases since material is more expanded today, I'd hate to think a classic, innocent bit like "Si, Sye" with Jack Benny and Mel Blanc would be demonized.
I like how the first cars were designed like horse carriages ,with the designers not knowing the speed and power that the cars would produce rending the designs redundant. Great clip.
These early pioneers of motorsports were the true race dogs of the track, all the excitement from two stroke inline four or even basic motorcycle engines chuffing more smoke than an old steam train! Watching the drivers get bounced like peas in a frying pan while fighting for position on the track! True racing that is close and personal and you see all the action unlike today..
Of course not this case, most people are using that phrase when referring to luxury cars especially Mercs and BMWs that were built from the 80s to mid 90s, which were built to their highest standards and didn't break down once a week. Sometimes that could also be fun to drive Japanese Domestic vehicles before the turn of the century that aren't made like another kitchen appliance like they have been since the early 00s.
Horseless carriages of the late 1890s and early 1900s. It reminds of Laurel & Hardy in their Ford Model T gotten into a wreck or fall apart, such as Two Tars, Leave Them Laughing, Big Business, Perfect Day, Hog Wild, County Hospital, Towed In A Hole, Busy Bodies, Blockheads, and Saps at Sea.
These staged comedy scenes with lightweight breakaway fences and other obstructions don't show what happened in real life to early cars that ran into stuff. Those spindly wooden-spoke wheels splintered into pieces, for one thing.
Every bang made horse run faster and won the race. Rocket car would go faster if parking brake released. Early driving school: 300+ driving instructors running behind the vehicle and shouting instructions. Great video, thanks.
My favorite "gadget" is a prank pyrotechnic device sold in novelty catalogs in the 1920s and '30s, designed to convince the target that his car is about to fall apart. The 10-cent item was wired to a spark plug, such that about 10 seconds after the driver started the engine the device emitted an ever-escalating series of alarming bangs, flashes, howls, etc., that simulated an engine tearing itself apart. Great fun, and perfectly safe, I'm sure!
You know. This explains why the older generations had Sooooo many more kids in the family, theyed get a head start on the drive home from the rough ride 😁
In black-and-white film, the silver-halide grains are coated in just one or two layers, so the development process is easier to understand. ... The fixer dissolves only silver-halide crystals, leaving the silver metal behind. In the final step, the film is washed with water to remove all the processing chemicals.
Yeah sports. Racing in a circle for hundreds of miles or a straight line for 1/4 mile, men hitting balls with sticks, tall men throwing balls in baskets, etc. Sports exists in the eye of the beholder
I'm not entirely positive about this due to the fact that I'm unable to see a glimpse of the front of the car but, I believe that the "Backwards Facing Car" shown for a brief time during the film, is none other than the fabled "Harry Hartz Backwards Plymouth". In 1932, Chrysler Corporation constructed a specially built "Backwards Plymouth" to gain attention to streamlining experiments and to test wind resistance. This was one of the several experiments leading up to the prototype Royal Trifon sedan. This lead to, what was to become, the Chrysler and De Soto Airflows of 1933.
The car wasn't designed to be LESS wind-resistant while driving backward -- notice that it lacks fairings of any kind -- but to MEASURE wind resistance in that mode, so that the Airflow design could be compared favorably with it.
Man, people laughed at everything back then. They laughed when they cleaned the carpet, they laughed when they took food out of the oven, they even laughed when Old Missus Dempsey fell down the stairs.
Educational yet very humors to keep your attention .. The omitted the Stanley Steamer however.. Steam cars were way faster in that Era.. Also Henry Fords Vanderbilt Cup Car was an interesting machine very fast and very crude..
Steam innovators solved the "long brew-up" problem pretty early on, by incorporating high-pressure flash boilers which made it possible to drive off within one minute of starting the car. The Doble steam car of the mid-'30s was considered to be the perfection of the steam car, however it was quite expensive, large, and required more maintenance than a gas job, so it never caught on. But it could run on cheap kerosene, home heating oil, etc, and was quieter and smoother in operation than gasoline competitors. The major internal-combustion engine makers kept up a barrage of public criticism of steam technology until the latter became a joke, at which point the steam era came to an end.

You can't see someone as human until they make an accent? Christ sakes you aren't that special.

Awesome!!! Even our great grand parents were crazy.
Those self-contained wheel cars are amazing, I never knew they existed.
They quickly went the way of the Dodo Bird.
Man those guy's on the race tracks had balls as big as a house driving those cars.
Wood racetracks too. Man that's crazy.
Waktu adaLah uang bro 👍👍
Getting burned alive was a pretty common way for race drivers to die.
They would have to have. They were the only things holding them in the car
We went from horseless carraige to brainless drivers lol
You think the horse "drivers" weren't "brainless?"
I like how the first cars were designed like horse carriages ,with the designers not knowing the speed and power that the cars would produce rending the designs redundant. Great clip.
this is more than comedy at the beginning 😅
An astonishing amount of extras in period costumes! Rather than the studio costuming them, they were probably still in peoples attics!
The motor racing in those days sure was exciting,unlike formula one today which is about as exciting as watching paint dry
Take a look at boardtrack racing.
They kinda revived it but it still isn't as populair. They are literally bycicles with no brakes going 90 kmh
Exciting, and deadly.

Yeah, it was great if ya liked seeing guys beheaded, eviscerated, or burned to death on a weekly basis. Ask Jackie Stewart how great it was.

I couldn't stop laughing when the guy got thrown out of the car when showing off his crash proof bumper or the guy that tried to jump his car.😂😂😂😂
Barney Oldfield the real thing. Great video. Thank you.
Those are clips from a silent film called "The First Auto" 1927 by Warner Bro. Vitaphone Starring Charles Emmett Mack and Pasty Ruth Miller
the rocket thing killed me 😂
smoke forever
Crash through fences like that with a modern car. Thousands of dollars of damage. Get stuck in the field. Airbags. Nice umbrella.
These staged comedy scenes with lightweight breakaway fences and other obstructions don't show what happened in real life to early cars that ran into stuff. Those spindly wooden-spoke wheels splintered into pieces, for one thing.
Maybe in those early "horseless carriages" but later, the Model T, with rather stouter "spindly" wooden wheels, were quite a venerable machine.
I know something about fences, and you are right, those weren't real.
I heard the A/C was ice cold in these cars and the entertainment system was top notch.😂
The voice actor is killing me 😂
This was a pretty "normal" style of narration in the 1930s thru 1960s
Her lies Beryl. He died from listening
Cough cough!
Reminds me of the Disney Nature Adventure films narration.
Everything had to be educational.
Unlike now.

Damn did they have drones back then with all these different camera angles
Most likely aerial footage from a biplane.
Head-on collisions in 1914 are bush league by today’s standards! LOL

Very2 funny moment's.. 😄😄
And the best video's...😊👍👍
No animals were hurt during filming of this incredible movie!
/Sarcasm
let's not forget the chickens
only the people watching had a very slow death from all that smoke a fumes
Except for the cat . Someone threw a boot at it.
3:00 the world before the driving school was discovered...
You had me on "Another genius devised this supreme test"
Thank god you guys were filming those!!!!
LOL so funny how some of these cars/ drivers were and not so hot in engine building yet
"back in 1916 cars came in every conceiveable shape and size"
today cars come in just 1 shape and 1 size
One shape is the most aerodynamic.
No, its the most ugly and garbage.
and 2 colors, white or black

Hello. I'm Troy McClure. You might remember from such movies as 'Gadgets Galore' and 'The Decapitation of Larry the Lead Foot'.
It's crazy to think that most of the different cars built at the end of this video, weren't made my auto companies, but just your average engineer.

8:22 'Torpedo car, 6 miles a minute'. That's 360 mph. Back when the Land Speed Record was 133 mph.
Lol this was so funny especially the smoke at the end. Haha shows how practicality rules invention not innovation. Lol those huge wheel caged
That smoke. AOC’s nightmare.
6:35 It reminds me the race from Mafia
Hands on the “wheel”, cigar in mouth, roll cage not invented yet, and wheels flying off. The wonders of the early 1900’s
"And now back to work...cough cough cough " haaaaaaa !!!!
Man this video is absolutely hilarious...... Thanks man I have not laughed like this in months.
Very funny rare
let's imagine we still have this technology . Imagine the kinds of drivers🕵️🦸🦹
thank god the aliens crashed here and gave us new technology .

Nice and funny video! I enjoyed! 😉
Bravo!! Well done 👍. Encore?!
"every word of it wrong!" My god! Were we truly that dumb?
