You can suggest new videos to upscale in this thread 💖
Amazing. Thank you for your work. I'd like to suggest upscaling videos of the Romanov family, please!
Upscale some WW1 footage, I bet that would get a lot of views.
Great work. These videos are awesome.
What you say in that "boring" talking is actually what makes people admire your dedication and effort.

Excellent work. Which neural network software are you using?
These people may be long gone, but the magic of technology has made them immortal.

Reminds me of the TV series of Wind in The Willows when I was young. It ended with Mr Toad making a film and Badger said something like "He's ensured that after we are all long gone, a little of who we were will linger on"
we are all immortals and I will explain that in my channel soon
Lol.

What’s more crazier about this video is that they surely never in their lives thought that they will be watched by millions of people in 2020.
This video will be watched over hundreds of thousands of years to come, seeing this is the first video ever
This is mind-blowing 😮
That’s how beautiful life is
Yes, it's like wondering someone who's from 2152 will watch us.
It’s sad that nowadays all we have to offer for the future to reflect on our generation is Tik toks and vines 😭
I had to keep reminding myself while watching the remastered version that it is indeed genuine and I’m watching footage from the 1800s and I’m staring at genuine people just testing something out with authentic historical clothing and not just actors wearing costumes being goofy
Same here.. it’s weird.
Thought the same, my mind just cannot believe it or something
Well the clothes may be historical authentic...but walking aimlessly in a circle is kinda goofy no matter what era you are from.
And the people of 2785 will be so woke over witnessing a flat earther on tape.
@@mrsticky005 a lot of people in that era never thought motion picture would catch on the way it did. For the first few decades it was treated as an object of ridicule with how successfully talkies had been integrated. I can agree on that they all look out of place, but who are we to criticize? To remind you this is the first know video recording, EVER. I’m pretty sure most people, in this situation, would also not know what to do. They would also more than likely not have been anticipating some random persons critique 130 years in the future. I’m also pretty sure there was no script for them to follow here either. This IS a significant piece of history due to the hold it has on our civilization today
Interesting how this was 13 years before Queen Victoria died, 26 years before WWI, 51 years before WWII, and 132 years from today.
House Grumpy Boys Yeah crazy to think that we have actual video footage of the Victorian Era!
And before 100 million+ people were killed in the 1900's because of Marxist Revolutions.
@House Grumpy Boys 15 years before the Wright brothers first flew.
and I just can't believe how hundreds of years before henry tudor and Sultan Suleyman existed. Especially Suleyman he was so brillaint and smart his people knew him as the law giver and the Europeans knew him to be the magnificent. And he had the realest poetry having love story ever.
Interesting how water is wet and fire is hot
I imagine this scene like:
"Sir, we are gonna test a new invention: the film. Please make some kind of movement."
"Fine." And walks.
I totally see that as well. They were asked to move around.
Look like a dance...
Kinda like when you turned on your first webcam, you stuck out your tongue and wagged your head back & forth :o))
@@MrClassic-wm2yc This is my impression too... looks like a part of an English country dance. Maybe the added soundtrack should have some music.
The guy on the left morphes into nothingness for a second though. Interdimensional travel, maybe?
The first video ever is a GIF...
@Jack Hayhurst it's a short video of like 4s
No, it's a boomerang
@Jack Hayhurst bro, I know it's not exactly a GIF, it was just an "expression". Period.
@Jack Hayhurst you must be fun at parties
@Jack Hayhurst it looks like a GIF. Get a sense of humour you weirdo.
What’s crazy about this is that the older lady was born in 1816. When this was filmed, a man born in 1781 was alive, and a child who was already born got to see the year 2001. Two hundread and twenty years connected. My great-great-great grandfather was celebrating his 14th birthday. This isn’t just an old peace of footage. Or the first. It’s one of the greatest achievements in the history of humans, of mankind. Your restoration is a contribution, and it makes that eighty times more mind blowing. If I were to grade this, it would be 101/10. Thank you for doing this.
you tell em Pezzotti
Child who was already born got to see 2001 ???what????
@@i.pezzotti853 ohh now i understood i initially thought that she have seen the future year 2001 during the 1800s😂😂.
@@i.pezzotti853 So you are not talking about people who are in the film, but people who were alive at the time of this footage and they went on to live until 2001. I wasn't sure at first what point you were making.
Totally agree, ist one of the historic videos of the humanity, for sure.
imagine if cameras existed at least a few centuries earlier, my goodness
Keeping Up With The Tudors
@@90sHONEY I would definitely
watch that 😂😂
sid: Cameras actually did exist a few centuries earlier, about 400 years worth. The problem was the creation of film that would last.
omg to watch 1600 the golden age, rinascimento, omg
I imagine this all the time
Van Gogh was still alive when this was filmed, wow
The last person to have met Van Gogh died in 1997.
Cabbage Guy Apparently Yes, she had the record for supposedly being oldest person to have ever lived. Van Gogh died in 1890 I think.
Cabbage Guy yeah, the oldest person EVER in fact...
So?
It's funny that I thought the same thing when I watched this for the first time
Fantastic work. I can just imagine him telling everyone “Just walk around.” Lol!!
That would actually make sense because they might have wanted to show off the “moving pictures”
More like
“Ok, moving pictures. What shall we do?”
“I dunno. Walk around?”
In the old days of 8mm home movies, often everyone froze when the camera started rolling. Thus the old lament you can't get people to hold still for a still picture or to move for a movie.
I can watch him walking back and forth for hours 😌 fantastic work you did there
czcams.com/video/TCSUKIhjevo/video.html
I like how they’re just goofing around in the garden, it’s adorable
When you rich and got plenty of time...
Watching a moment in time 100 years before I was even born. All of human history and events after 1888 didn't happen yet. Seeing people exist so long ago in a brief moment really makes you think of life forgotten to time. All the struggles and difficulties being alive so long ago is something we cannot comprehend. Books and drawings of our ancestors can only give us a clue to life back then, but photos and videos bring out the true life now forgotten. Seeing old videos being brought back to life makes it more fascinating to watch because it makes it more believable to be actually there, witnessing the world around you. It wont be long until these old videos will look like they were filmed yesterday.
❤️👌So true
Yes. That's the beauty of these very old footage.
Well said
what's even weirder is right now will be like this in the far future
It's so weird people in 2152 will look back on us like this. Like knowing people born in the 1900's is normal to us, but by the 2100's people are gonna think it's fascinating to know people born in the 1900's. Heck, even the 2000s (2000-09)
The fact that you're the first preson in history to remaster the first video ever is amazing
Ar Hent
I think it’s the earliest known SURVIVING video. I believe there were several transitional prototypes between this and the old arcade flip books, which, while not technically “videos”, ARE definitely a kind of animated photography.
No originals older than this survive, however. Arcade Flip books had a poor shelf life, naturally wearing out quickly after hundreds of uses.
It's been remastered countless times by countless people.
Cool!!!
Sorry to be pedantic, but the Roundhay Garden Scene is the first film, not video. And you only have to read the other comments here to see that people are so young now that they weren't born when film was used in cameras. The originals are films, not videos.
@@cbnewham5633 i'm from a hispamic country, i know it was a film but here we just call it a Video. Sorry if i didn't express well but thanks for eth correction btw lol
Oldest surviving motion footage, from 1888, and it's still higher quality than the latest security CCTV stills published in a bid to find crime suspects, LOL.
Or any UFO’s or Big Foot evidence, which always seem to be shot with a potato.
I wonder why
Right. They have cameras that can zoom in on someone from like a mile away now. Meanwhile the police cameras be like “can u identify this grey blob”
@@C4shTheAlien lol grey blob 🤣
RoadRash NT Oh yeah duh, that makes a lot of sense lol. Why can’t they just buy a terabyte or two and just delete he footage every few days unless they need it though
They invented the closest thing to a time machine without even knowing lol
The grandmother already had her funeral dress in the first ever video of her.
What a bizarre coincidence.
Probably mourning dress, the mourning for women was very strict, and some women when they became widow they kept their mourning clothing until their own death. For example, Queen Victoria.
Imagine for argument"s sake she was 70 years old at the time this was shot. That would make her born in 1818 only 3 years after Napoleon was exiled to St Helena ....
@@phillipecook3227 Sarah Whitley (née Robinson) was born in 1816.
She was born again in 2020 who knows she is lucky
Yeah "bizarre" what a "bizzare adventure"
I couldn’t help but imagining people from the future taking our old videos and transferring it into some hologram that you can interact like you were there.
*Execute Order 66*
WOW I CAN FINALLY HAVE A PREGNANT ANNE FRANK?
Or taking this one and turning it into a hologram which you can interact with.
If you talking 3D hologram that is highly unlikely
@@mahogany7712 DUNNO BUT U CAN TRY A VR APP DEDICATED TO HER HOUSE IN OCULUS GO (IT'S A VERY NICE APP) !!!
sad that cameras was invented so late in history... we lost so many things 😔
We do have books tho.
@@petr-nagy still camera would be much much better
There is no lateness in history
@@petr-nagy It's time to time travel
if only we had a time machine..
I love the way everyone dressed back then. The clothing (especially the women’s) must have been stifling in the heat but very warm in winter.
The summers were cooler back then because global warming wasn't so bad.
jm gee 🤣🤣🤣
L W You’re probably right.
clothing was usually made out of fabrics that allowed the wearer to be somewhat cooler. also i bet summers were colder back then due to effects of global warming :) ive always been so interested in clothing from back in those days!
Their clothes creepy me out
And after doing this, they probably went back in the house, had some tea, and forgot all about it. They would have had no idea that what they'd just done was of historical significance, it was just a young man playing with a new toy.
No it was probably pretty exciting at the time.
Maybe centuries from now someone will say the same about us. Future generations will be staring at our videos and wondering what it was like to live in the 20-21 centuries.
Probably looked at the paper on the table and talked about who this Ripper fellow thought he was. And of course one of the women would have said it's terrible but what can you expect if you are a lady of the evening and felt superior in their aliveness because they were not hookers.
“Ok gang, I’m going to try this camera out, just act normal and walk around”
“What??? Well ok.”
It's kind of a very slow gentle and peaceful harlem shake
@@devillockj it was a experimental wooden cabinet camera that you could even fit in
One of my family home-movies on 8mm from 1960 was may Father doing exactly that.
Apparently that's 19th century normal
Driver Jay Always remember time is short. We must repent of our sins (sin is transgression of The Turah) and believe on The Master Yahusha. We must believe on Yahusha. In Hebrew, the word "believe" means to "trust and obey" so we must trust and obey Yahusha
Faith saves you. TRUE faith will produce obedience. If we have genuine faith, we will obey YAHUAH’S Law (Turah). We will repent when we stumble into sin (sin is transgression of The Turah) and trust in The Master Yahusha. Grace is what allows us to be the men and women that YAHUAH The Father in Heaven called us to be. It allows us to obey through His SET-APART (HOLY) RUACH (SPIRIT). 🙂
It's so uncanny. With all the improvements it looks like something we could have recorded with a phone just any day in anyone's garden. It looks so modern. Like people in costumes.
The quality kind of reminds me of a Beatles video, like something
czcams.com/video/TCSUKIhjevo/video.html
In 200 yrs from now these CZcams and phone videos may look just like those ......that's if they last that long, one thing in those old videos and pictures is they can last through decades, can we say the same for our current technology ?
@@twinkitten1 I doubt if people in 200 years will be very interested in our videos. Our era is creating so much stuff that I think they'll think we were a bunch of narcissists who spent all our time pulling faces, arguing with strangers and dressing cats up.
@@macmuggo5459 you're right
_they're inmortal now_
It's actually crazy to think that this video was only made 132 years ago. That's a small amount of time in human history. Makes you wonder what technology we have today that is basically brand new will be in everyone's pockets (or brain, or whatever) in 2152.
of we manage to survive global warming, internet is here to stay.
That is if we managed to live *_that_* longc sure. But I’m imagining what the people of the distant future are doing at this time as I type this.
It’s so cool to know that they had trees back then.
*underrated comment*
Stupidest and funniest comment ever, lol.
Thumbs up.
36minutesAgo well they used to be black and white but slowly turned to green by mid 20th century.
@@Lymbe06 true, I saw it happen in Pleasantville
I can see viewers a hundred years from now saying that about videos from our era...
All in their 160's by now....living in Century Village down in Florida.
Epic comment!
Omg century village 😂
LMFAO ! I live in Century Village ...Thanks
Lmaooo
Haha
133 years later. I wish I could show these people that their footage has been viewed by us, 133 years in the future, to show them how much the world has changed, and how the marvel of technology has put us in Mars and beyond. Man I get so sentimental thinking about this.
Man, this whole thing is really messing with my head right now.
The old lady in the film, probably spoke to people who knew people who were born in the 1600s
Probably a very very long shot because life expectancy back then was shorter. Can't imagine someone being over a 100 years old when that older lady was born. Maybe first half of the 1700's is more likely, which is still insane to fathom.
@@troymeredith521 so if this was filmed in 1880 and let's say she was 60, if she spoke to a 60 year old when she was little that person would have been born in 1760, if that person spoke to a 60 year old or older then that person would be born in the 1600s, it is a long shot I admit but definitely possible
I don't think this is a long shot, she was 72 in this video ie born in 1808. So she could have known people early on born around 1750s. They in turn as children likely knew people born 1690s. Life expectancy was short but living to an old age wasn't unknown if you had money, I live in Britain and you only have to walk round our cemeteries to see 90+ ages on many tombstones going back to 1600s.
@@troymeredith521 There were some very old people back then remarkably. Not as many as now but if you managed to survive the childhood disease and remained free of accidents and disease you had a reasonable chance of living to a fairly old age. Odds increased if you had good nutrition and lived in a safe environment. Living to the 90s and 100s was likely not as common as today but people could reach the 70s and 80s in many situations.
One of the oldest people living in the early 1900s was Margaret Ann Neve. She was born somewhere in France in 1792. She died in 1903.
Here is a good article from the BBC explaining the difference between life span and longevity throughout the ages:
www.bbc.com/future/article/20181002-how-long-did-ancient-people-live-life-span-versus-longevity
wtf that's crazy to think about
"Only ten days after filming, Sarah Whitley died at the age of 72. Louis Le Prince mysteriously vanished just before unveiling his new technology to the public.[4] Louis's son, Adolphe Le Prince, was discovered shot dead around two years after he testified about his father's inventions in court against Thomas Edison.[5]"
Yeesh. Ya think Edison might have had them whacked? The more I hear about the guy, the more I begin to think he was some kind of James Bond Supervillain of the 19th Century. It'd be interesting to write a story or make a video game where that is the big twist...
Edison also stole Tesla's ideas too. He was a pretty evil man.
theproplady
You need to read the 5 fists of science.
Edison was a scumbag and fraud.
Edison was pretty much a thief. Research what he did to George Melies and his films. The first incandescent light bulb was demonstrated circa 1823, underwater. Edison didn't invent the incandescent bulb, he invented a way to mass produce it. He's been wrongly glorified for many things.
Reckon Edison would have got on just swell with Musk and Gates
This video is absolutely incredible, being able to see their style, it’s just so fascinating
Oh my lantana, I could watch this all day. I love seeing his historical find.
This is 132 years old, and perfectly legible, yet all ufo footage even from last year looks like it's been filmed by Michael J fox on a Nokia 3310
Dont forgot about Bigfoot too!
And footage of God doesn't even exist!
Thankfully the Bible is legible. As opposed to film footage.
The Bible lmao. Oh wait you were serious?
@@waspjournals41 Please don't disparage the Bible, it's very absorbent...
Louis Le Prince deserves so much more credit. He’s the true father of film.
Yes! Buzzfeed unsolved did an amazing episode on him.
No he isnt
I agree. A lot of people think Edison played a role in Le Prince's disappearance. Unfortunately there's no direct evidence of his guilt.
@@mirandagoldstine8548 Ya but given the piles and piles of evidence that he was directly responsible for screwing over so many other inventors it's not a stretch to assume he did the same thing to Le Prince.
@@CoolioXXX52 yup yes he is 🙃
The talk wasn't boring but illuminating. Its amasing how your stabilising algorithm etc. makes it come to life. We are so used to perfect film. Now all of those wonderful old films can be viewed as though they were taken yesterday. The eye gets chance to study and take in the whole picture.
And right now the year 2023 …millions of people are watching them in their smart phones, smart tv’s, laptops everything ❤
You are truly incredible at restoring these. I hope someone watches a video of me 132 years from now!
Wouldn't that depend on what you were doing in the video?
In 132 years they might make a cybernetic humanoid copy from your image and make your their butler robot.

I lived close to Oakwood grange in Leeds, I remember the house when I was young, Roundhay is still an affluent suburb but rather sadly the house was demolished along with all the other stone-built houses nearby and the area was redeveloped, however the location of Le Prince's second film "Leeds bridge 1888" remains, including the building and the actual window he filmed it from

Having made THE FIRST FILM proving that Louis Le Prince made the worlds first film in Leeds, I really wish I had met you before I locked picture. I could have used what you did within my documentary. Brilliant work. It looks as if it was filmed only last week. I recreated that scene using a replica camera exact in every detail and we used 70 mm film stock which we found in Russia and cut it almost in half to fit the camera. We recorded it 125 later to the very hour on the same spot Le Prince shot that historic footage. Thank you for doing this.
Interesting. Where we can watch your film?
Dear Mr. Wilkinson: your film is a wonderful one. More than anything else, it has the great virtue of having put historic - and well-researched - information out into the world. Thank YOU!
@Straight Razor Daddy The film can be ordered on DVD - or streamed:

Perhaps you were asking, "How can I see your film without paying you a cent?" In that case, you need to look for an illegal download that ignores copyright and ownership laws. I hope you don't, though. That's what jerks do. :)
Louis Le Prince has probably made the very first film in history….. The problem is that he decided to leave France for the UK…. And that's according historians the Reason he's been killed by the french secret service… Like his son killed in New York city...
@Straight Razor Daddy I'm glad I was able to help you decide. Have a great week! 😁

We're still not there with sound yet; bad sound will always sound like bad sound, unless it was good to begin with.
Quite literally, indistinguishable from magic.
Dude, you are amazing! Thank you for these videos👏👏
Fascinating . GREAT JOB!! Thank you very much for sharing your work!
Just think... they were thinking. "Isnt this cool?" The same exact way we saw the first cell phones and the first internet video...

They more than likely were thinking "I say, this modern contraption is delightful!"
@Altoid Bazingá don't ruin it child 🙄
You can sort of tell the personalities of each of them after the restored footage. Amazing.

Thank you so much for shaing these precicous videos!!!
Brilliant & thanks for your work /expertise to get to the 250 frames- simply amazing
This is intellectually and artistically badass, and also emblematic of the end of “recorded ‘reality’.” When we’re muscling 230 new video frames from a 20-image still file, what limits remain to the dedicated?
This is dope.
dude, I'm sure everything you said was is true?
Huh?
@@iasimov5960 It isn't hard to understand man...
In Real Life yo see only FRAMES¡¡...So you recreate the IMAGE in your Brain¡¡...The man is Recreating the image the nearest that you saw if youre were in that garden ,that Evening....Y prefer THIS....But if you prefer you can see the Original Footage....I understand your Point...
In a universe where substance yielded more likes than empty pop references, this would be top comment.
Louis le Prince was the real inventor of the motion picture camera, not that scumbag edison. I wish that the world actually knew that this was the case.
Say👏🏼 it👏🏼 louder👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you and we appreciate your effort and skills.
Just came across your videos and had to join your chanel.... Absolute genius can't wait to see what's next!!
look how elegant people in those days looked! absolutely loved this, thank you Denis! ☺️

..crap, holes in the pants clothing nowadays, yeah...
@@jesussavessinners9980 stop no one asked
only 80s kids remember. 1880s, that is
Love the dressing from back then! Great work! Thank you for sharing it with us
Wow Amazing comrade! Great job, thanks for the intro it's always interesting to see the behind the scenes process
The earliest celluloid film was shot by Louis Aimé Augustin Le Prince using the Le Prince single-lens camera made in 1888. It was taken in the garden of the Whitley family house in Oakwood Grange Road, Roundhay, a suburb of Leeds, Yorkshire, Great Britain, possibly on October 14, 1888. It shows Adolphe Le Prince (Le Prince's son, another son, Alfonce Le Prince, was later shot in New York in a hotel room tryin' to investigate his father's vanishing by meeting Edison), Mrs. Sarah Whitley, (Le Prince's mother-in-law), Joseph Whitley and Miss Harriet Hartley. The 'actors' are shown walking around in circles, laughing to themselves and keeping within the area framed by the camera.
@Flimst There is actually credible evidence to suggest this, believe it or not. Letters from Edison prior to Le Prince's disappearance have some strange implications, and an unidentified body that looks LITERALLY EXACTLY LIKE LE PRINCE was found days later.
@@MrMarsFargo
Photo found in the French police archives in 2006, shows the body of a drowned man pulled out of the Seine in Paris shortly after Le Prince disappeared. He has a strong resemblance to Le Prince.
He never shot on cellioud. He used glass and paper negatives. Celliuod was launched for the first time three weeks after he made his film, in the USA.
@@YorkyOne It's not him. When I was touring with THE FIRST FILM, in Cambridge and met with some of the Whitley family. There was a surgeon with them and he said the bridge of the nose of the two men was different. It is true. I wish I and my team had spotted this before we finished filming.
I envy the descendents of these people. I can't imagine seeing my great great grandparents on video!
director and his son was killed 1year after this video by Edisoin hitmans who want title of the first movie director - so i guess no descendents
@@alternatereality7301 he had 2 sons ...the one here lived
Simply amazing! What an amazing time we are living in to make this magic literally happen, where we can generate realistic images from damaged footage, and art appear real and natural.
Amazing. Thanks for all your effort. Keep up the good work👍🏻👌🏻 love from Brussels, Belgium 🇧🇪
omg this is so cool that you did this. im a huge history enthusiast and ive seen the original so many times. your restoration brings it into a whole new light and it feels completely different 👍
People one year older than you be like:
"You were too young to remember
I live in Leeds and took my grandson to look at the house (and Leeds Bridge where another film was shot). I will show him this restoration - you've done a great job on it.
Thank you sir
Great work mate, fantastic peak back in time.
Чем ещё заняться в двенадцать ночи, как просмотром видосов в полном смысле слова столетней давности))
Очень круто, на самом деле! Так необычно осознавать, что более ста лет назад снималось... какая мода тогда была, тюрнюры эти и шляпы...
Спасибо вам за вашу работу! Это необычно и прекрасно ❤
132 летней,мать его, давности видос! Ааа, кто бы мог подумать тогда?!
ВОТ БЫ ГЛЯНУТЬ ВИДЕО ДАВНОСТЬЮ В НЕСКОЛЬКО ТЫСЯЧ ЛЕТ ))
Common Google, There should be a damn translator right here in the comment section.
@@JP-wx3bt If you are using Chrome as your browser, you can right click on the window and click "Translate to English". The translation may not be 100% accurate, but at least you'll get the idea on what they are saying.
Tik Tok: I let people do random things in a loop
The Whitley's: Hold my footage
Just to show you that while technology always changes, we humans do not. 😅
Thanks for your work and inspiration! 👍
Dennis, you just gave this film new life and passed the torch to the next generation
This is amazing stuff. I do a lot of what I call "audio archaeology", transferring from old tapes and acetates, but it's nowhere near this involved.
I've been doing audio restoration for many years.
I have an audio-recording of my Mom from 1930. It’s on a Speak-O-Phone disk in excellent condition, so no restoration was needed.
Is there anything like the upscaling using AI to, say, give higher fidelity to a 1927 Louis Armstrong recording, so that the trumpet sounds naturalistic, in a real room?
Oldest recorded film found in the archives at the Mistry of Silly Walks.
Immediately what I thought of ! 😄
There are certainly older films than this but they didn't survive the course of 100+ years making this the oldeest surviving film..
This is giving me chills, knowing that these people are like waaay from the past and that they're all now long gone, not knowing that one day we'll see their Video in the future..
Very well done. Congratulations and thank you for sharing this video with us. 👏👏
Little did they know they would live forever on film. Excellent job.
The title should be “the worlds oldest Boomerang video”

@@patrickboone423 no boomerang because it goes back and forth
FANTASTIC work!!!! Well done
