The fact that they made such a sophisticated automate at the time speaks volumes about the brilliance of its creator 😀. Wonderful piece of work...

[@sticksnstonespatriot1728]

European genius

[@queenmary301]

@@sticksnstonespatriot1728 Germans in particular. I love my European ancestry. makes me very proud

[@lourdesajramos6774]

Hard to believe that was made in 1772. Restored in 1864. Genius creation !!!

My coughing chimney is a creepy guy

[@sabersgrrlchannel8054]

creepy and beautiful, i wished i owned such a masterpiece!

[@sabersgrrlchannel8054]

@Ross Sinclair obviously i'm saying creepy in a good way, like haunting. i just said it was beautiful and wished i owned one. what are you having difficulty understanding?

[@mitri10inches]

Truly the period of fine art in all things. The French are such leaders and masters of art and style. My favorite period which is so beautifully represented by this masterpiece of craftsmanship!

[@KarlMartell732]

Made in Germany actually, the video says it at some point.

[@deaconsmom2000]

What an amazing piece of history!

[@franckcolas8623]

fabuleuse harmonie !

[@pabloburgueno9691]

Its gaze at 1:45, wow !

[@MechanicalSculptor]

Absolutely remarkable! What amazes me most is the subtle gestures, as I am familiar with the complicated mechanics that it would have involved to include them. A true work of love and art!

[@bizmarkie9112]

Wow, it's amazing how old that thing is. Very beautiful and very intricately made. It's just purely amazing.

[@JohnAK72]

That's amazing how they crafted such a beautiful piece of engineering back then.

[@WilliamBrothers]

I'm considering purchasing one of these so that I might play these when I come home from work at 11pm, when I will then sit in my Louis XIV oval medallion tufted sage green linen dining chair as I drink a glass of Beaujolais Nouveau.

[@thumbprint7150]

Ha ha, sounds like fun.

[@AJ-dx6bn]

Haha yeah.... *Brings guillotine*

[@terfrocks2583]

Did you buy one? X

[@imtweetydiva29]

Great video. Robert Houdin is one of my favorite magicians.I have fell in love with these magnificent mechanisims(automatons) as I learn more about these fascinating automatons.

[@ellensalim9069]

Soo..beautiful. This is wonderful!!!

[@NekoCat86]

Such a beautiful creation.....

[@jeansonne100]

i was unaware craftsmanship like this existed until today

[@SuperKasper333]

Incredible and stunningly beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

[@1900maggie]

now this is truly a work of art.

[@bakersbarrel]

Truly incredible!

[@LathrineJadehawk]

Aagh that one dislike was me. I was aiming to Fav it and didn't have my mouse over quite far enough. Definitely don't dislike this; It's beautiful, in an eerie, haunting sort of way.

[@lilangeldreams2846]

Absolument brilliant! Le détail et le soin accordé aux gestures m'impressionnent beaucoup ^^ J'espère pouvoir construire quelque chose d'aussi sophistiqué un jour...

[@Flymehomegiantswan]

1:32 gave me chills this is a really good song

[@lydiasadkid]

Mon Dieu elle est magnifique, elle doit coûter une fortune ! 😱

[@Celticswynd]

I can't believe they are handling the dress with bare hands when they lift it up. Even if it's not the original fabric, it's still quite old. Handling such fragile artifacts with your bare hands can speed up deterioration!

[@YuRueiHuang]

It's very fantastic!

WHOAA I love this!

Beautiful.

A damsel with a dulcimer, in a vision once I saw...

[@thumbprint7150]

A damsel with a dulcimer In a vision once I saw; It was an Abyssinian maid, And on her dulcimer she played, Singing of Mount Abora. Could I revive within me Her symphony and song, To such a deep delight ’twould win me, That with music loud and long, I would build that dome in air, That sunny dome! those caves of ice! You sent me to Samuel Taylor Coleridge, thank you.

[@cinderling5472]

[@annecohen8927]

How sweet does she play! I like it!

Thanks to this video, I can never be scared by anything ever again...

Amazing ! ! !

[@ChewbySpirit]

Une pure merveille! Merci de nous la faire découvrir...

[@RamdomRando]

To think we are listening to something marie antoinette listened herself, posibly in her own room as she was just chilling.

[@keithosmarferrer]

it's more modern than our current humanoids!! it's an ART I tells ye!!!! an ART!!

Exactly! This video right here demonstrates the MOST impressive technological achievement in history! This uses no electricity or no computers! This 'proves' evolution does NOT exist! People are not evolving! People are DE-volving! I am telling you, people are becoming more and more retarded as the years go by! The smartest people in history lived hundreds of years ago!

[@Goldfischle]

unbelievable!

[@56bluegold]

Very Cool !

[@OxAriesxO]

A Robot don't take "decisions", he just do what he was built to do. Every Gear and every Piece have a diferent FUNCTION depending of it's position, speed, weight.. (idk the project). So this Machine are taking decisions constantly. If a Gear are at position A it will do something.. If the Gear are at position B it will do another thing. Respond a "decision" is just process the Algoritm... Doesn't matter if the process is 100% automatic. (Sry about my English, i'm still learning)

[@aukua5512]

Israel Rêgo your English is great! Yes, that's actually a animatronic, it's a robot but it processes with that much metal and movement that it came from the 1770s, in the 18th century. That's amazing. It's also one of the earliest animatronics ever, through it may be more than 200 years ago but it's still amazing! Yeah, I'm still learning my English too. I speak the language, since I'm a American, but I'm working on spelling, grammar, and punctuation. But for now it's good.

[@linaassoul]

Wow it's such a masterpiece

[@emenefer]

Incredible how this machine still works just as good as it did in its heyday, while my piece of crap 2014 ipad mini has had software issues that have rendered it useless for five years.

[@rich21421]

Amaizing! I have myself an automate from the XVII century, a little magician that makes objets apear and disappear from a table. I've been trying to find out if there are buyers for this type of antiquities, does anyone know were can a get information as to sell it? Cheers

[@babatasya171]

Супер!!!

[@mariachiarapavone3741]

che poesia!

[@youaremypreciousone]

An android dating from the 18 th , it's quite impressive !

[@Flymehomegiantswan]

Was the song made exclusively for the machine or can someone give me a name.

[@touficlteif4105]

What's the name of the piece at the beginning?

[@verzahaku]

Notevole...!

[@darksandra666]

asombroso, arte en su mas puro stilo,me gustaria saber ¿¿¿como se llama la pieza q toca...???!!!!

[@fatoprofugus6491]

FUN FACT: This video was filmed with a real 18th century webcam

[@agilsukamto119]

1:47 she smiles at you

[@SpiralsAreAlive]

Okay silly question, is the tapping of the hammers actually causing the music, or is it a music box or something in the hidden mechanisms making the sound

[@ChicoDiamante]

That song. Me gusta.

[@JedrzejP]

But does it support MIDI?

[@chowing08231]

The band at Chuck E Cheese: "Nah, that ain't music".....

[@Kyathis38]

Bonjour je ne suis pas sure mais il me semble l'avoir vu au musée des automate a Grenoble. Est-ce le cas? Ou je me trompe peut-être

[@jamwrightiam]

Is this footage free for creative Commons or copyright protected, cause it'd be great to work with in a video project and with of course proper citations but I'd like to ask

[@mahler71]

You're funny but so right.

[@Lucius1958]

Now if someone could reconstruct Vaucanson's flute player….

[@MyDiabolicoTwin]

That thing is scary as fuck

[@fluffybunny4165]

Phantom Driver how is it scary it's a beautiful piece of art! A work of wonder and patience! It's beautiful!

[@拓群]

I feel the same way.

[@otkcalvin437]

just like annabelle playing

[@TheDollyGeek]

This is such a pussyfied generation :/

[@gunnarthorsen]

Sex frightens you?

[@lewis666lewis]

Does anyone know if that is a real piece? And if so what is it called?

[@NJBZX]

that instrument is same like inside the grand piano

[@G6JPG]

Is it known what the tune is?

[@1957pinup]

FREEBIRD

[@dougabbott8261]

I would be happy with a mini doughnut machine. It is something amazing to watch a machine make so many intricate moves and with the mini doughnut machine you get doughnuts instead of music.

[@vasodeath]

@rich21421 ¿Eres de México?¿En serio tienes un automata?,¿podrias subir algun video? jajaja,en la Cd.de México he visto muchos anticuarios.hasta hay algun museo del juguete,igual a ellos podrias venderselo,si yo tubiera dinero te lo compraba,pero no tengo dinero Saludos ojala subas algun video

[@Haerodiel]

Well, not all robots are automatons. But let's not get into that discussion. ;) And I know; I was just pointing out that giving a machine a face does not make it a robot.

[@johnsethi145]

Wow a French santoor

[@maoravni4203]

That's Lisa Gerrard playing her Yang Chin...

[@MariChan93]

E' bellissimo! Mi chiedo come potessero davvero creare robot di questo calibro nel 1700...

[@madaraluka93]

@sharlene07 It's not stupid if you are chased away by a revolution... :/

[@eltunz]

C'est magnifique! Où peut-on trouver le DVD?

[@hervelefebvre8171]

[@oksanakoprakova3746]

The first time it began to move They must have thought it is magic. How could people build something so beautiful

[@2Ryled]

It is astounding even today!

[@danielda4471]

Hmm 18th century wasn't middle ages... and specially paris was a pretty modern city.

[@heru-deshet359]

Very patiently.

so much people think they are more able than those who were before

[@jacf4301]

😯

[@michellelau9046]

this is beautiful and the craftsmanship is stunning

[@aukua5512]

It's amazing that this came from the 1700s that it still works (if they take good care of it well and properly), it will last a long time. I'm surprised that every part of the animatronic/robot/mechanic figure moves, due to the rods, screws, and metal, that it is one of the first animatronics ever created. The machinery hidden under the woman's skirt moves the head, arms, and eyes. At first, it looks creepy, cause it's the way how it was designed, but it's truly a amazing masterpiece. It's beautiful.

[@narudayo5053]

This is not one of the first, at the same period japanese and other civilization where doing similar things. For Japan it's even more elaborated and they are called Karakuri puppets kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2bdin5ve92CiKs. Also animatronics existed even centuries before.

[@IHeartNoise]

Not sure why, but this makes me sad for some reason. Great music, though!

[@RamdomRando]

I Heart Noise / Ilya S it makes me sad because the owner of this music box was killed, it gives me feels to know she listened to this and i can also hear it but it was her’s she had a fucking music box of herself! If you think about it the king and queen weren’t bad people, they simply didn’t know how to take charge of a kingdom and got too involved in their own little perfect lives and honestly there was not much they could have done.

[@rexthegamergembox]

Maybe there is some backstory

[@user-mv5tm8eu5z]

@Dan Trebune boy what lmao

[@garyv2196]

the piano needs tuning.

[@ieatplastic1756]

@Dan Trebune duuuude that’s not the take away

[@TigerRose246]

Holy Hannah!! What an amazing creation. It boggles the mind to think of how they created this, one bit at a time, with what - hundreds? thousands? of moving parts. I can't help but wonder if after years of skilled craftsmen working on this, day in and day out, fine-tuning it to perfection, maybe Marie and Louis just listened politely to a few tunes, then wandered off and did something else, like kids at Christmas ("Oh, let's go play with the box!"). LOL Humans. Go figure.

This video right here demonstrates the MOST impressive technological achievement in history! This uses no electricity or no computers! This 'proves' evolution does NOT exist! People are not evolving! People are DE-volving! I am telling you, people are becoming more and more retarded as the years go by! The smartest people in history lived hundreds of years ago!

[@augustalavenderblue7353]

I don’t know about Marie Antoinette, but I wonder if Louis wasn’t taken by it. His hobby was watchmaking and so he was probably interested in mechanisms.

[@fruitygarlic3601]

@ Idiocracy is probably your favourite movie, making you one of the only candidates for de-evolution.

[@ballsxan]

Dude there were tower clocks by the late middle ages, so this just matches that time.

[@Mikey84]

This is what I call art :) Someone should tune the strings, though...
