    Did they have drones !!! Some of this great footage looks like drone footage to me. In 1901 the population was 500,000 !!! Who built these incredible buildings ? Please don't say the convicts. I have many more questions regarding our "history" so I'll be doing my own research, starting with the oldest photos of Australia. Thanks for peaking my interest . I've got a feeling it's a rabbit warren.

    Notice how the people react to being filmed? They don’t react. Today you would have a buffoon in a uniform arresting you because someone has hurt feelings from being filmed. This how we got pictures of what life was like 110 years ago in the same way photographers film today so we have pictures for the future.

    Absolutely brilliant video thanks so much for sharing. It’s amazing how much this country has changed in even just the last decade let alone in just over a century. I think it’s also a bit sad especially when you look at how this country has become and looking at the footage of places like Luna Park how it bares very little resemblance to back then or even when I was a kid going to Luna Park in Sydney 40 odd to 50 years ago before the Ghost train fire in 1979 and before developers got their grubby hands on the land around it.

    John Jarret deserves an Oscar for the Ultimate bad guy role!!! Next time i find a CZcams poll on my favorite bad guy : F Darth Vader 💯 Mick Tailor beats Lee Van Cleef (Angel eyes) or he might have to share that first place! Van Cleef became just 59 yrs Old - Clint Eastwood is now 92🤷🏼‍♂️ One of my favorite actors! John Jarret “actually beats Clint…” (edit: Clint winn🤣)Time was different and so is Mick Tailor!!! 🫣 Would Love to see Dirty Harry to blow Mick Tailors head clean off…. With his .44 Magnum in Wolf Creek lll 🤣That aint gonna happen 🤷🏼‍♂️

    All the original clips are bright with good flesh tones, all the restored images are darker with unreal flesh tones like the film his a red filter over it. This is particularly noticeable at 6:39 and 7:07. Give me the original!

  • @keithnaylor1981
    @keithnaylor1981 Před rokem

    Baffling - in the clip at 1:51 everything is bright and clear on the original. As the image changes to the restored version the film becomes dull and loses its clarity as if it’s being viewed through a red tinted filter! Same problem at 2:22 - on the right his face and flowers are too red, and again at 2:26.
