These guys saw the evolution from muskets to machine guns

This is so cool. Thank you for sharing this ❤

I wish I were in Dixie!!!!

Don't know if this is a dumb question or not, but where was President Lincoln sitting?

Men, they never saw the WWII or WWIII

For a 94-year-old man to be that cognizant & aware would be extraordinary in 2024, let alone 1929!!

Everyone is dressed beautifully.

The sunglasses make him seem even cooler

My 135th grandfathers neighbour who was fish shop owner knew genghis khan !

Imagine in 500 years from now our great great great grandchildren will be able to look at footage of their ancestors.

That piano is INCREDIBLE!!! WHO IS THAT????!

It was really fascinating and bone chilling to learn about the assasination of the president Abraham Lincoln from a person who directly witnessed it. From the era where he lived, he might not know that there would be internet and youtube and people across the world would get to see him and his emotions in the end acted so normally as it is. But, today in a world where knowing that people across the world will see it, many act indecently in the internet. This is like a time travel for me to witness the video.

As someone from early 2000's, I never imagined that I would get to see nearly a century old footage, showing a man born nearly 2 century before just a few decades after the Napoleon saying about the american civil war where the great Abraham Lincoln was still alive. So, they lived to witness so many major historical events directly that we learn from history books. Fascinating!!!

For state's rights...is enslaving people a valid right? No, therefore you weren't fighting for state's rights you were fighting for human trafficking whether you were old enough to realize it or not.

The Civil War was a stupid war fought by stupid people. The moral injuries of this war continue to harm this nation. Both sides did evil things in this war, but the Union was arguably more brutal, especially to the innocent civilians.

Lesson: don't bring rocks to a gunfight.

As a former Civil War Living History actor, I often asked people their birth date. Then I would ask them to go back 100 years to that time in America to realize what they would have seen and experienced. Many would have seen the opening of the frontier and the closing of it. Gone from horse and wagon to automobiles. Fly through the sky and sail beneath the sea. History became very condensed when thought of this way and how close to the past we are.

So what? It does not matter if his grandfather met Mickey Mouse.

THESE were what Blacks called "House N__g__ers" They were Mulattos who worked in the house during slavery, as opposed to working outside in the blazing hot sun. They were often well-spoken & educated, (probably by their master's wife or children.) (This preferential treatment of Mulattos borne resentment amongst Blacks (ESPECIALLY THE WOMEN) who viewed them as "Thinking they were BETTER than the others who worked out in the fields."

sound's like german family, all came to uk but never lost their accents, 😅 and I'm wearing my pink Freud t shirt 👕 😆

America was so much better back then

He could understand states rights and be willing to die for that.. but couldn't understand human rights?

"Extreme austerity, I had the rice pudding." Words mean different things to different classes.

And the greatest horrors of humanity are still ahead of them in time. Nuts to think about that.

Out of 8 billion people how many became Bertrand Russell? Are children today going to become somebody?

3:06 Damn she loved the city of LA.

State rights for the south... All were hero's - That's what they said they fought for..... Thanks so much for clarifying the truth ......

Wow - amazing History!

Ihr kriegt die Freihetsliebe der Deutschen nicht kaputt sie ist gepflanzt in euren Herzen.

Wait... Teddy Roosevelt fought in the Civil War as a toddler?

First illegal immigrats

What a time to be alive.

The narrator sounds a bit like Dean Martin.

How come they never interview irish or Chinese slaves?oh that's right they don't matter!

I'm 47 in 2024 and my great great grandfather fought in the Union Army of Tennessee from 1862 to 1865. He died in 1940 and was McMinn County Tennessee's last Union Veteran. My grandmother told me stories of him as she lived with him in the 1920s and 30s because he drew a government pension as a civil war vet during the great depression. His father fought in the War of 1812 by the way and his father for George Washington.

That's how senior citizens should be treated today, WITH THE UPMOST RESPECT,,these seniors are living history, so have respect for all of our seniors, and everyone else too,, I seen a 20 Year old punk, being disrespectful to a wonderful senior citizen, and I gave him a history lesson with my fist and boot,, and I guarantee that's a historical lesson he won't forget, don't disrespect our senior citizens, because someone will be watching you, and so Will I,,...

For you "then and nows" people just type in "3338 Broadway New York" on Google Earth street view or whatever, you'll recognize it on one of the corners even though it looks like crap now ....go figure.
