I imagine this is somewhat close to what an LSD trip would be like at the Frigidaire pavilion at the world's fair.
@@ginhphp4219 perhaps God could request that the people could remove those god awful feathered hats during ride. It is making the people behind them sneeze.
Yeah I feel like I'm tripping balls RN watching this.
You can't image what acid is like, you have to actually take acid. Talking about acid without having actually experienced it is ridiculous. Don't worry, one acid trip won't make you start listening to jazz.
@@railgap how would you know? You have no idea about my history.
And what is wrong with listening to Jazz? Why don't you take a few acid tablets and listen to John Coltrane's "OM" until then show some manners Beatnik.
I never realized what I was missing until I found this. Yeah, this is what was missing from my life. Love it.
This channel deserves so many more subscribers. These sleepcore videos are the best thing I've found on youtube - please keep it up
I like them also and subscribed.
Agreed 👍
Absolutely dude
Couldn't agree more
They are to sleepy to hit subscribe.
Thank you for posting this. As a person living in England in 1964 this appeared to me today as being way in the future. 1964 was the year I met my future and continuing wife. Amazingly we have been in Canada for nearly fifty years now. My wife and sons concur that Ford should bring back their 64 concept station Wagon as an all electric machine today and take the lead in the electric vehicle market. I can still dream can't I...............................
I like how I see precursors to Google Home and Alexa and such in the bit about future phones. Call your home to turn on your dishwasher actually became a thing.
They had no idea the the high point, the "furture" of America was their present, and that it would only go downhill from the mid sixties.
Agreed, the 21st century is a major disappointment.
@@timvandenbrink4461 для всех((
K boomer. Go enjoy your 21st century technology that's helping u stay alive and prosper.
You lost your mind you think this is downhill from the 60s
You guys see it😊our time period now sucks...culturally, the workforce, politics, etc. I could go on and on...2000s have really blown...🤣
The way that woman caresses a AC Unit... #relationshipgoals
Stay positive. One day you will be the AC of some woman's dreams!
Lmao I was laughing, thinking imagine getting so chuffed over the AC unit today, as if it's the best thing you ever saw. Prolly some places like that but still lol
yo that station wagon is a death trap
Such a shame that companies don't make videos like these anymore. Even if they were kinda of corny, they always had a positive and long term vision that made them fun to watch.😁
corny and, well, racist and, well, sexist and, well, classist, and well, I wonder why they stopped making them?
@@railgap it’s more about the video formats and not the things written in them. it would be interesting for companies to make mini documentaries like this. all the other “-isms” don’t have anything to do with it. things only shortened because so did people’s attention spans, and limited airtime.
I like the kitchen that is in their house already. Wood and brick.
I’ve said it before somewhere , these have helped ease me off to sleep so many times. Even good as just nice chill vibes. Thanks again!
I think I finally found the channel that will be my go-to watch when I'm going to sleep. I always sleep with something on, I get a ringing in my ears and I can't sleep unless I have something playing. It would be much more soothing than what's on TV at night, one night last week I woke up to the Star Spangled banner, and it was playing in my head while I was dreaming before I woke up. Made for a very weird nightmare
And look - a washing machine and dryer .How very futuristic !
She turned into a Geisha 😳
The Frigidaire opening segment made me wonder: Did they put something funny in their ice cubes?
These engineers were inventing the concept of internet. We are now watching videos on the world wide web just 50 years later.
Yeah... and they probably had no idea how popular the Porn industry would get because of it.
No one could have imagined just how pathetic society would become with the internet. Education is eclipsed by not only constant entertainment, but by loads and loads of misinformation and outright lies. It has become a world of opinions where facts are meaningless.
Wow that's a very interesting point. These engineers didn't know what would cause a lot of these things or their similar counter parts to become a reality. They just thought it was going to happen. That's deep.
Yeah, ended up not being such a good idea to bulldoze the Amazon rainforest. Also, those kids on the space needle would be surprised to see "21st Century" Seattle now. A shame, things looked a lot nicer back then.
I remember when they were called 'Jungles', whatever happened to them?
@@MrMenefrego1 they lost. the bulldozers won. progress!
Pfft: who needs oxygen anyhow? Or insects? Or pollination?
You mean a really crappy amusement park and crappy shops? 1950 Kids on the space needle looking into the binoculars lenses of today would be amazed of what our technology has become.
@@Gdub33 No, I meant they would be surprised to see the ghetto Seattle has become with black clad masked thugs and cowards blocking streets, killing people for disagreeing with them, and burning the city to the ground. Compared to that things in the 50's were vastly nicer, "crappy" amusement park and "crappy" shops or not. At least they weren't ashes occupied by homeless and toothless meth addicts banging their tin cups on the ground demanding handouts. I'll take the past any day.
@25:30 is the closest version of Homer Simpson’s dream car I’ve seen yet.
What a fabulous channel thank you so much for doing this
That bit about turning the rainforests into farms and pastures is sadly coming true. Back then they thought it'd be a good idea, and I founs the optimism in the narrator's voice off-putting considering what we know now.
There’s nearly as much biodiversity in the temperate forests as there are in rain forests, so unless you’re going to tell the billion people who live in Europe and North America to find somewhere else to live and let the temperate forests grow back, you’re not making any sense. You’re like a girl who thinks she can hang with the boys but says something really naive that makes it obvious she’s not a boy.
@@hamsandwichindahouse Ever see the movie, "Soylent Green"? That is probably the most probable future if resources disappear at present rate.
@@zsigzsag Good news. With economic development birth rates drop. Also, we are on a 10,000 year trend of becoming more efficient with our consumption while simultaneously getting better at producing energy. The sun's current output will continue for billions of years and we're only getting better at collecting it.
Here's another fun fact. A glucose molecule produced by a plant is indistinguishable from a glucose molecule created artificially. We're on our way to that, so there will be no need to panic about food or any other resource, so long as we still have the raw elements to work with and an energy source.
@@hamsandwichindahouse Well I hope you are right. There is a possible cataclysmic on the horizon lot of talk about changes in the Yellowstone Caldera. If we have a super eruption, the whole planet will suffer. Back to square one for humanity.
@@zsigzsag It's funny you mention that. I was literally explaining that to my wife yesterday. I told her people fail the grasp the horror of Pompeii and the absolute violence of Vesuvius, which would be dwarfed by something like Yellowstone. And to be fair to your point, in order for humanity to not completely waste it's cheap resources and find new and efficient methods of providing for the basic needs of all humanity would require unprecedented global social, economic, and political cooperation, which doesn't appear possible anytime soon, if ever, which is depressing. I hope for the sake of future generations we can evolve as a species before we destroy ourselves, which feels much more likely than an extinction level event like Yellowstone Caldera erupting.
About that woman in the first segment -- I'll have what she's having.
"Hey, Dad. Mom doesn't respond when I call her and she has this really big smile. Does that have something to do with that little plastic bottle with the little white round things she brought home from the doctor's office?"
Lady's drug cocktail: 1:3:1 white ignorance + colonialist and imperialist propaganda + housewife docility
Looks like an easy time but in reality it's a prison.
@@bradleydeherrera8396 Seriously. WTF were they on? They wanted to turn the whole Earth into a whites-only suburb?
@@bradleydeherrera8396 Jesus Christ, even drugs are colonialist
@@bradleydeherrera8396 sign me up
Coming from early 1900 s, this sure seemed exciting. I wish we could get the same enthusiasm at least. I loved the family expressions showed in the movie.
It's not from the early 1900s. They didn't even have films with actual real recorded audio until 1927. This is mid 1900s.
32:50 the girl starts touching the lady's clothes in front of the store. Made me laugh... People are not that friendly now. They would start screaming and filming you.
WOW this first segment is so dystopian 😬
Thank You For The Tasty Brain Candy. Tasty Delights to spark the caramelized cell that still functions somewhere in that hollow cranium holding up my ears.
The theme kitchens are way ahead than my mum’s current kitchen
Ours too!
Yeah I wish my oven could transport me around the world too!
That whole segment of the Seattle Center they didn't once show the bubblelator elevator? Anyone from Seattle remember the elevator of the future? It eventually ended up as greenhouse in someone's back yard. LOL.
And before that for a period of time it was at the Seattle Children’s Hospital. I loved the Bubbleator as a kid growing up in the 70s
You couldn’t have had chariots without horses, who are even more beautiful.
Was about to catch the best sleep of my life, and then BAM the loudest ad on CZcams. Almost had a heart attack.
54:45 "medium colossal"
Duty now for the future -- DEVO
Both are far ahead of the time in which they were created - and the latter still is.
The narrator starting at 35:10 is the voice of Dick Tufeld, the original "Lost in Space" Robot.
I didn't know that.
The first segment of the underwater environment reminds me of back in the days of the famous puppet show super car or Thunderbird. Thanks for the upload
Maybe Stingray by Gerry Anderson.
Wow ...Fantastic channel ! The insomniac hasnt got a chance ...Better than Pluto TV !!
👏(mostly)
I like Pluto lol
And of course our own predictions of the future will look just as ludicrous 40 years from now
You mean complete social and economic collapse? I hope you’re right.
Yeah ....
like the climate change scam
I can tell how World of Motion at EPCOT Center was inspired by this film style.
Just show them a modern smartphone of today. Though our modern technology would seem futuristic to these people of the 60's.
Because it is
Important world discoveries: blank The kitchen of the future: goofy smile
Would like to see a before and after of the Seattle Worlds Fair and CHAZ.
Those accursed young people running around everywhere and barging their way through. If the 21st Century is going to have so much disrespect then I don't want to go.
That’s because to even get a job you need a degree in college 50 years of job experience and to have quit 20 previous jobs and that job will hardly pay for your house
Sorry, you're here 😂
What? Lol. Boomer ur not making sense.
@28 minutes, the production car is still in production today, a rare gem.
This relaxed me so much 😊😊😊
Wow. Just wow
Can we please go back to the past? Its future is so much nicer than today.
I don't think clearing away the rainforests for "pasture for raising cattle and farming" would be nicer, or survivable.
Except the effect of these impractical inventions they stated in the film would create a much worse world. So no....let's not go back in the past and deal with the future.
@@johnathanmartin1504 this exactly
You should do a video of this film breaking down what and what didn't come to fruition. Yes, sort of or No and breakdown why the Nos are impractical.
20:26 Ford's Allegro beats our UK Austin Allegro in style.
What is the locomotives in your picture? I can tell it’s British but I only know the flying Scotsman and the rocket from the uk as most of my locomotive knowledge is of my country the United States of America or in the 1860s it would be known as the Confederate States of America
@@theblocksmith645 its a Great Western Railway 61xx class large Prairie tank, tank engine locomotive.
All this futuristic technology always ends in women cooking and cleaning.
So what's your point
@@michaelmerck7576 Why design tools for women to use when we can just make robots to be the user and the tool?
I like this channel so I subscribed.
The beginning reminds me of gumbaesia.
Lol that lady walking like a geisha
So this whole looking back at someone looking forward is a thing ....
41:03 She says Preston (Preston CZcamsr)
So good
45:35 don't know why but I found it pretty funny when he said that he believes in the world of tomorrow and thinks it's going to be a good one. . . if only he knew. . .
Nobody ever realised that the future...
Would be so shit.
At least we got squeazy cheese.
Keep the cheese!
1950's GM did not have an ecologically balanced view of the world. They envisioned all of the world to be developed for the sake of convenience.
imagine seeing the future and you're still a housewife there too...
And what will we leave to the deserving animals?
That high pitch tone tho..
Same. I cant focus on the video
I don't hear it much....maybe in too old? 33 and I don't really hear it except if I listen super closely.
just for me: 13:45, 15:10, 29:34
32:50 What, you just go up to a lady and start pawing at her clothes? wtf?
girls get away with stuff.
1:32 Walmart
Noone is snorting bath salts or smoking incents?
😀
" no one", " incense". You're welcome.
Reminds me of Fallout.
I swear most of the actors are on Valium... a lot of the woman seem high af
Is the high frequency noise added in the video or its really like that?
Retrofuturism is oddly comforting, maybe because it's still convinced of a mysterious and promising future and remains innocent of the steaming pile of dystopia that is the reality in 2020. It's like slipping into a dream.
Ads - understandable but loud and intrusive, will never be able to use this for sleep as a result, would prefer several at beginning and end to being woken up. I constantly get an ad for a particular laundry soap on different clips and the music is abrupt, louder in volume and grating, even without sleep, not good for immersion.
So pay for YT Red and no commercials. Easy solution.
Sucks to be you.
@@SandraLily2 That a little bitchy don’t you think?
30:21 ...more like texting
More vids of Earth 🌏 + Disrespectful Humans On 🌏
What year was this video made?
It looks like the middle 60’s
1964 according to the film credits
✌️❤️
サムネの、自動車に飛行機を搭載した乗り物の映像は、いつ見れるの？
we are controlled by insects from far away.
42:20 for later
I swear to God, all these old "Our Future" videos were only about destroying the environment and spreading humanity like more of a plague.
True true. And everyone is white. I have never seen a black person in one of these. All these boomers talk about how much better times were. I would NEVER want to live in that time.

They still have the woman - wife stuck in the kitchen, as her domain - in the future! I guess not much has changed in the future. Oh and they are still wearing those big 1960's hair styles. At 10:03 is this how people in the orient walk? What a cute but silly film. Designing cars of the future, do you see any computers? No it's all done on a drawing board or with wood and clay.
funny enough, They still use clay and drawing tables to design cars, computers to finalize and efficiently design the components. These old cars were death traps.
@@inflames6631 lol ...no
No one using clay for model anymore.
If you want to touch the prototype you just printing it.
@@mirek190 they absolutely do. Its called a mock up
Wake up lady you're having a nitemare (the. Modern kitchen)🥴
Offline is off ??
Flying cars are called airplanes
Actually the flying kind of cars are more like drones these days.
dan rather narrating??
How did my comment disappear?
I am soo glad the future is not as racists as these videos
Yeah, it was the White 1/2 of Obama that dropped more bombs than Bush ....😊
The brave new World, is´nt it.... 🤣🤣
Wow
People get some DUMB ideas
Without God 😔
24:00
MST3K should do this one!
Interesting how none of these "welcome to the future" videos from the 50s/60s predicted a global pandemic with people being in lockdown
They didn't think we were stupid enough to fall for such an obvious scam, they were wrong, we are!
@@MrMenefrego1 a wild covidiot appears...
@@thelogster Please do get your 'COVID-19' immunization injection, then tell me all about it.
@@MrMenefrego1 Will do.
(and thanks for proving my point)
@@thelogster Yes, poster boy for the Sheeple Generation, clearly I'm the 'idiot' here. In my 80 years, I have never seen a generation of people so willing to give their rights away, rights for which my generation fought. Okay, since you're the genius here, please do tell me, what are the ingredients of the so-called 'vaccine' that you are so eager to get? You can't tell me because you don't even know, genius! You are so intelligent that you're going to allow strangers to inject you with an unknown substance. Yes, clearly you are the well-informed one here, I'm the 'idiot'. lol! Be sure to wear that useless mask too because no germ could ever make it past one of those masks! 😂 Wait, you geniuses are supposed to wear two masks now, are you obeying that useless dictate too, genius? Thank you for proving the point that you and anyone else who bows to the Globalist dictates are Sheeple. Enjoy being a slave, genius. (you won't reply, as you have no intelligent reply to give)
The television industry segment of this video should be mandatory viewing for EVERY democrat politician so they can see how the private sector WORKS ....Since MOST of them have NEVER done anything but politics !
-1964 Look exotic east. I getting around in the exotic east, it is so nice
-2020 look some talibans ooo look some terorists, so nice, aaa look us army getting around, so nice
What’s with that awful high pitched sound???!!! 😖
With the exception of that moving fridge, the first segment’s view of the future looks like a lame, consumerist, strangely kitch-y purgatory. Also, way screw over the desert wildlife by artificially pumping water in into and drastically changing their environment. Eh, give the cartoon Futurama over this one any day. Suicide booths and all.
The clearing of the Amazon and the exploitation of the oceans certainly have happened, but the results are rainforest depletion and garbage piles twice the size of Texas.
That's how California became the Golden State and that how Israel is an oasis in the desert,that s why all the Arab countries want it now but in 1948 when that land was given to the Jews it was a desert wasteland nobody wanted that's why it was set aside by Britain,not being fully aware of the history that was ancient israel
Yeah this stuff is bleak. The sad thing is the boomers who get hard on this type of content.
Boring I'm jus waking up
The Ford looks like a mustang was rear-ended by a Jaguar and puked out that disgusting looking thing that can't decide if it's European or American! OMG then came the Ford Focus! LMFAO! It really shows the quality and stylish engineering of ford's sad European division! SMFH!
Coincidence that car manufacturers produced most of these early infomercials?
My phone number is uh "5-3"
