IMPOSSIBLE RESTORATION!! (no fake rust)

[@bcgrittner]

Excellent narration. I have heard The Real McCoy story many times over the years. Your story telling was right on the money. A little tidbit that your story didn't quite mention, specifically, was that Elijah McCoy became a master of lubrication as a result of his education in Scotland - which contributed to his development of the McCoy lubricator. The man was ahead of his time, but was slowed by the racial barriers of his time. Most people who I am acquainted with do not know the story of The Real McCoy. I enjoyed your telling of the story, hearing it once again. Keep up the good work.

[@pn784059]

This format should be a regular thing for you.

[@alifetomake]

French dude here. Never heard of the real McCoy before, but I'm glad you taught me the story! GJ!

[@mramanya]

What a great way to start the day. I love hearing the history, thank you Justin.

[@margaretadler6162]

I've got in trouble in high school when a teacher I had said necessity is the mother of invention and said that laziness is the mother of invention. I got paddled and then I said that the paddle was invented to make his life easier! I rest my case. Needless to say I got tossed out of the class. That was 53 years ago and I still believe that. Thanks for the video and the the trip down memory lane...lol

[@Phoeff99]

What a nice message and to think of the innumerable possible “Elijahs” are among those similarly seeking a life free of poverty repression and persecution that have crossed and which still await crossing our southern border. I’m glad you have highlighted the untapped potential of our previously disregarded classes and the plight of their struggle for a better life. Why so many want to stand in their way (just as those who stood in the way of Elijah and his family) and in the way of progress itself is beyond me. Well done sir.

[@nosyaj007]

If only history was this interesting at school keep up the good work

[@leebarnhart9725]

Hell, just look at the comments Justin. We love ya bro! You should start a second history of machine and tools type channel. You got that rare story telling gift. You could talk about paint drying and I'd listen intently to every word.

[@thomaswoodlock6316]

I love seeing all the restoration videos. I love them even more with a commentary of a history lesson. Cheers mate😊

[@leebarnhart9725]

Good gracious what a great story teller/ teacher you are! This was your best video ever, at least for me cause I'm a history nerd. I knew that the "real McCoy" phrase was derived from these oilers but you quite brilliantly filled in all the gaps and made the story whole. We got to wonder what other life changing ideas were stifled by slavery and wars in the past. A little history lesson with all the thing you restore would be good for everyone. The only thing that really matters is what happened because it the reason for what's about to happen. Orson Wells or Rod Sterling couldn't have narrated this any better!

[@rjtumble]

It's stuff like this that makes it clear you were the right choice as curator, glad you're going to stay involved with the museum. I hope to make it over for next years good of the land fest.

[@katestramenos929]

Love the stories!! You have a gift my friend and I’m glad people get to see/hear it!! If we had no monetary system, the world would surely work better by people just simply doing things they love for other people.

Must have had good spark when you grabbed that plug wire...LOL. I enjoy hearing the historical commentary as you go through your restoration.

[@DrMurdercock]

Being obsessed with motors all my life, the way you describe the internal workings gave me goose bumps man. Had to sub. Keep this amazing work up and you quoted the all time great, Tesla.

[@DevaJones03]

Thanks so much for paying on this often over looked history. It's much appreciated.

[@TheGoodoftheLand]

Thanks for watching Deva.

[@robertschreier345]

I love your history lessons on the random things that you have to restore. I love seeing the old brought back to life to run or be used again. We have become a throw away society and that is sad to see. People used to fix their broken things, now we just toss it to get a new one. I love the old things that I can still fix. Thank you for doing what you do, and keep on keepen on

[@pemtax557]

You have managed to amaze me several times now ... however, this story has managed to eclipse them all. What a heartwarming story! Humor, history, unanswered questions, it has it all and I enjoyed it thoroughly. You have talents that make me envious. Cheers ...

[@danmetzger5583]

Justin, That was your best vid yet! What a great story.

[@scottyboy7462]

i was captivated. so many unsung heroes of the industrial revolution. more vids like this may be good for business.

[@lizbelinoski1232]

This video is great!! I love the McCoy story & you got really deep in your thoughts there! I got to your channel thru Dr. Lee's. Thank you for helping Mark this past week! Y'all did a great thing!!

[@jameschippett2177]

I love how you have developed the restoration video in to something new, not just entertaining but informative. Well done & thankyou for your time & effort

[@dantheman9534]

Justin, I like watching you bring things back to life, but I have to say: this is possibly the best video you've done!

[@davidlee0817]

Love it,,,, we ran most. Of our pump jacks with the ole hit an miss,,,,brings nice memories,,,,them ole things are finicky! But damm reliable, grandpa would always say,,that’s the real McCoy there boy,,,,lol

[@YoungHeartedSoul]

Loved the way you narrated the story.

[@ArkansasPilgrim]

Your presentation of the history of the oil cup system of lubrication choked mme up. I revel in stories of ingenuity and accomplishment, especially about those with the odds against them. I'm going to show this to my son, Elijah. !!! God bless you, Justin.

[@PaganWizard]

Very fitting that you shared Elijah McCoy's story on Jackie Robinson day.

[@KoalityofLife]

Great video. Love the history stories and the restorations. Watch that spark though, it'll getcha. :)

[@PS-rr2jt]

A million “likes”! Excellent narration.

[@theradarguy]

Jason, I really loved this docuvideo. Please do more. I enjoyed meeting you at the bash last year. Sadly I won't be there this year.

[@EdgePrecision]

Such a simple thing we take for granted. Without these stories we would never know what effort went into them. Excellent voice over with the video. The 12:57 minutes went to fast. Keep doing this format!

[@MrBucidart]

The whole video was ..... very well done, thank you ..

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Another great history lesson. I see you tested it for spark the old school way. LOL Been there done that. I once heard that people tend to learn things three ways: some learn by watching how to do it, some learn by reading how to do it and then there are those that just have to pee on the electric fence. Glad we can learn by watching.

[@bcgrittner]

Yes, Elijah McCoy was the original and the best. With the education he received in Scotland and the grasp of mechanical things that he possessed, McCoy was the master of lubrication.

[@emjayw3018]

Outstanding Justin, you certainly have a talent for storytelling and historical research, captivating and suburbly told tale, with a simply awsome video 👍👍🇦🇺..

[@michaelevans7013]

Great information enjoy listening to the stories and the history

[@214rwoz]

I knew the story and I knew the controversy concerning it's origin, but coming from a mechanical background, I always believed Elijah's need was always the greatest need and therefore his was " The Real McCoy ". Thank you for your time and labor.

[@ianallen2]

I love some of these video's. To be honest, I have not watched them all and I love the history told about the items. I hated history at school back in the 70's, but I am in UK and it was mostly boring history. I have just voted for you Justin. And I have finally subscribed. :). I like the restoration vids.

[@hamroad1956]

Your voice-over narrative is VERY well-written. I continue to be impressed with your skills. All of them. Excellent voice-work, as well. It sounds spontaneous and relaxed, with close to perfect enunciation. You make great videos.

[@TimTurner115]

Thank you sir. I like the stories about all old motors and mother of inventions

[@larryshaw796]

Good stuff Justin, I guess that was more of a resurrection than a restoration but cool non the less. The idea of putting something in context is a good idea ,since it give relavence to the project.

[@shauntucker5145]
