As we will be too in 100 hundred years and people from the future will look back at our comments if KZbin still exists, crazy isn't it? Time will always continue to go on....

[@jckhammer]

@@TheMajesticKnight people in the future will def have so much more video evidence. Too bad we didnt have a chance for as much footage of one hundred years ago or more.

[@billbergendahl2911]

Very enjoyable video and music!

[@marioandrikopoulos2158]

Thank you for posting this Video 👍

[@paulpaulsen7245]

I enjoyed that very much, thank you! Here is a short calculation. From 1906 (from where the original film comes from) to 2017 = 101 years. Suppose there are 1000 people at least moving through those streets, we come to roughly 365000 people per year. But there is more - suppose 10000 people each day. Then we come to roughly 3, 6 million a year and in 100 years 365 million. I guess even that number is pretty low - by tripling the number we come to more than 1 billion. In other words - in 100 years there are maybe 11% of world population of 2020 moving through San Francisco streets! Whether more or less - I find such approach amazing and funny! Greetings from Germany!

[@markcolston4602]

Wow!amazing that the tower is still there after all that happened.

[@peteralbert1485]

There are a few other survivors from the Earthquake too - the Flood Building at Powell St, the Emporium's facade across the street from that, the Call Building a few blocks closer to the Ferry Building

[@robertmceachern2428]

No lights, No Signs, No road markings... No accidents!! (What the heck!).. Did people get stupider as time went on? A few near misses and wow! No road rage either. I think that big earthquake a week later, shook every humans brain loose! Awesome comparison video.

Wow, somebody from 1900 waking up and finding themselves in 2017 would freak at all the noise and speed! "Send me back, please!"

[@runawayuniverse]

Makes me miss living in the Bay Area. My Aunt lived in The City and I'd hop on Concord BART to go visit her and then ride my skateboard up and down Market Street. Fun times.

[@neilsinghal3253]

I think the color photography in today's SF distorts the comparison between the two time periods.

[@dominospizza4386]

You are completely right! It would be interesting if it was filmed with a camera from that time to see how different it really is

[@jonbryn4]

Yes i agree, the after footage should have been filmed in b/w

[@machia0705]

B&W is timeless. It’s an interesting phenomenon.

[@xChromerSatanasx]

And the rail cars don't have any wires connected and currently they do. Pretty strange eh

[@RaymondHng]

That is not a tram/streetcar. The vehicle that the camera was placed in was a manually operated cable car. Cable cars and the rails they run on are not electrified. There was a moving cable running inside the slot between the two rails. The cable car grips the moving cable and gets pulled. www.cablecarmuseum.org/mechanical.html

[@josh2b2josh]

It was free atmospheric energy, see the little balls on top of the trams and most of the buldings, lamps etc .. not to mention the one at the end on the little domed building where the turntable thing is, check global vision videos for reference. This was 4 days before the fire/eq destroyed most of the city including most of what you see here as very few buildings remain compared to what was. Now this place like many other cities looked absolutely awesome architecturally and wide open uncluttered and free back then.

A very very good documentary and also the relaxing magic music thank you! I'm feeling very sad regarding the shameless exploit of so many poor horses -slaves on the roads 100 years ago- ! Fortunately this kind of tortures today on this wonderful market street its over, lets hope forever!

[@safeatthird6060]

Great. Make San Francisco world class and clean again. PLEASE

[@gaynor1721]

The old b&w footage was filmed April 14th, 1906 - just four days before San Francisco earthquake struck killing between 700 - 3,000+.

[@latenightlogic]

The clock tower and surrounding buildings are exactly the same.

[@vainglorious101]

Blur Frontman the buildings can’t be exactly the same Because many were destroyed by fire in the great earthquake of 1906

[@latenightlogic]

Yeah - but the video is literally right there of them

[@criticalhard]

Blur Frontman I'm so happy to see that the clock tower is still there and maybe many of the original buildings too.

[@punchnazis3498]

aside from the clock tower (ferry building) and a handful of other buildings, most of the buildings in the older video were destroyed in the 1906 earthquake/fire

[@therose8521]

Were there any traffic laws back then?

[@BunnyRabbit_iris]

Wow it's almost scary how times change, very old people that's been here before we were even born, everything looked so old and now everything looks so new. The cars in the old clips can't even no longer be found or used, only in historical buildings you can see a model.

[@L30NBL4NK]

I think both landscapes bear their own vibe. The modern one is more reliable, and the old one, simplistic with its own charm too.

[@MeltyNote]

It feels so clean in the old time and the modern looks so busy

[@MeltyNote]

I mean the old was busy but there wasn’t cars, signs or any type of modern stuff, just a black and white image showing just buildings, rail, people, wagons and horses, it looks wide too in the old video

[@mtanyctrainatlantamartatra7164]

​@@MeltyNoteNo, the old time was full of dust and horse manure

[@jamalss2661]

At the end of the road in the old video when it turned to the left, there were large buildings and many skyscrapers But in the new video there are no buildings where they are now

[@ИванМалаховский-т6й]

Maybe they are destroyed in some of 2 great earthquakes, 1906 or 1989

[@peteralbert1485]

There are a few buildings that survived the earthquake and fire of 1906 and are still standing today: The Ferry Building, of course, but also the Flood Building, the Chronicle Building The Emporium's facade, the Call Building. If you know these, you can pick them out in both films

[@JayKarpwick]

@@peteralbert1485 Trivia: the Ferry Building survived the 1906 quake because it was one of the first in the city that had a steel-beam skeleton instead of being only stone and wood.

[@matthatter2849]

The old film you see was only 4 DAYS before the GREAT S.F. EARTHQUAKE IN 1906! So everything you see, with the exception of the clock tower and I'm not even sure if that was rebuilt or not, was destroyed either by the quake or by the fires afterward.

[@peteralbert1485]

A few buildings on Market that survived the earthquake and fire of 1906 are still standing today: The Ferry Building, of course, which pretty much survived intact, and also the Flood Building, the Chronicle Building The Emporium's facade, the Call Building.

[@matthatter2849]

@@peteralbert1485 Ok...that's great to know. Well, I should've done a little more research before I made my comment.

[@peteralbert1485]

@@matthatter2849 No worries - it's hard to see the facades with the grainy footage, let alone compare them to today's scene. I love SF history and I walk or ride streetcars on Market Street every day, so these are just details I've learned over time. It's interesting to compare how intact the Victorian neighborhoods are that surround downtown (the Mission the Haight, the Castro, the Western Addition) because the wood buildings rode out the quake better than brick and stone buildings...except for the brick buildings in Jackson Square, that somehow did not crumble.

[@pauleypavillion6088]

Market street today reeks of sewage due to street bums and drug abusers. That whole street has been taken over by these bums and derelicts. No good to even visit market street due to animal gangs infesting and out to commit horrible crimes. Its been disgusting since the 1990's.

[@daledm1]

You probably helped create the mess too Pauley as hateful as you sound

[@GBart]

You don't think it smelled like sewage in 1906, when horses still pooped in the street and many people still used outhouses and chamber pots? Come on, think, dude... Also opium (heroin), alcohol, and other drugs were abused just as rampantly if not more back then too. Heroin wasn't banned til 1924, and Coca-Cola had cocaine in it! Use your brain!! Or at least Google!! Drugs and bums weren't invented in the 1990's, that's just the limit of your knowledge of history

[@MightyCrazy]

SF is so bad now ever since Trump took office.

it definitely looks more pedestrian/biker friendly. At least there are now sidewalks and crosswalks so you don't have to risk your life crossing the street like in 1906.

[@gtb2009b]
