Whoever took this, thank you. It was when Samoa Pack was newly established and buses were entered from the rear, not the side as we have it now. You sit face to face and when arrive at your destination, you walk to the front to pay the driver your dime. It was when sodas were 15 cents. Thank you very much.
Beautiful island of Tutuila. I was 7 when this video was taken. LOVE it...... lots of memories 😍🙆♀️👍👍❤💗
Fa’afetai, this is truly a gem. I recognize some of the areas in this reel. 👍

W O W! Amazing that you have a video of our home from back in 1966. Cool.
Thanks for sharing I remember going on that cable car as a kid it hasn’t worked for 40 years since ? Also the camel rock only has one or two coconut trees left on it
WOW! I was 12 when this video was taken, and right before that huge hurricane in 1966 that paralyzed the whole island. Some of those houses shown in Futiga and Pava'ia'i came down during that storm. And most of the villages are practically the same, except few changes here and there. Thank you so much for sharing, appreciate, awesome memories.
1:06 is Mesepa where the American Samoa Community College is currently located. 1:13 looks like Pava’ia’i. The mountain in the background looks like Kango Hill.

real life not reel life
It's just a slang. Reel refers to the footage films or rolls of film.
