Mind-Blowing Vintage Photos

[@rockyroad7345]

I rode a "graviton" many times at the Astroworld Theme Park in Houston...late 60's or early 70's. It was called the Barrel of Fun or something like that. It would spin until the centrifugal force had you plastered to the sides and the floor of the barrel would drop out. It was great fun. I remember it being very windy with swirling air and pleasantly cool inside it on a hot summer day.

I have to take bonine to go on coasters ... I'd need to take two to go on that thing !!!

[@SherryRector]

They were so much fun.

I remember the Celestial Suite in the hotel at Astroworld was once the Guinness book record for the most expensive hotel room

After a hard day,I love to look at your channel late at night. The photos are beyond interesting and the music is soothing.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you so much ... Feedback like this makes the work worth it !

[@davidschumaker8107]

Hopefully they were "in-tune" and that milk didn't turn out sour! Good timing on the Oppenheimer pic!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Still haven't seen the Oppenheimer movie yet. It's supposed to be very good. But, this picture seemed appropriate for timing.

Candy man store at 6:04, with all those glasses jars stacked ontop upon another.. Should be an epic scale of mess if one wobbled around and toppled the others to fall...

[@DuckReach432]

Loved the Charles Schultz photo. The guys being jumped over by the motorbike - look at the face of the second-last guy lying on the ground. He is not a happy camper. Great collection.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Glad you enjoyed it. I was unaware that there was a real Charlie Brown who was Schulz's best friend until I found this photo.

Oh mercy I remember all too well the string removing my tooth

The thumbnail reminds me when I was a kid and my Mum attached my wobbly tooth to a doornob, and then to slam the door! I’m sure I wasn’t the only one. 😅

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

I had one done like that ... and only one ! ....lol

You are so welcome!

Those girls with the strongman looked like they could've been pretty strong themselves.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

No kidding !

[@ginettemorin2]

Wow!!! On your last photos I said they were mind blowing but I had not yet seen these!!! More than ever, some bring me to tears, some seem from another world (or planet), some are just unbelievable. Again, congratulations on your precious findings!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@johnforet216]

I rather doubt that a photograph exist from 1835 (2:00)????????????????????

[@ninakramer276]

Thank you again, for sharing your collection. In this grouping, I am in awe of the Sigiriya, in Sri Lanka, and the one deciphering Behiston in Iran. Incredible!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

I couldn’t believe how close the ladder is to the edge on the Iran deciphering photo when I found it.

[@esmith5717]

Superb presentation and great music too. Keep up the great work.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you very much! Appreciate the kind words and support.

[@garymorris1856]

Great photos, however, I believe the "mother removing loose tooth, 1897," is staged.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Possibly … a lot of these old photos are staged. The famous one of the iron workers having lunch on a skyscraper beam being the most staged of all. But they are still cool old photos so they get left in 🤗

We are all a snapshot in time. We Blow away like dust before the wind and are place remembers us no more. 😢

[@netwrench6570]

I don't believe that. All of our deeds are recorded and will be remembered at Judgement for good or for bad. Investments in eternal treasure will be remembered and rewarded. Deeds based on faith in Jesus are the only way to transfer temporal activities or wealth into the infinite.

[@kareneastman9695]

I wish I could have bought Candy in that store then.:-(:-D:-PGood photos.

[@hartubmoses6645]

OMG, the Graviton, we had one in Michigan, but I don't think it was called that. It was the early '60s, it didn't last long, but as a little kid, I loved it.

[@seandelap8587]

These are indeed nice photos you never disappoint

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

How did they put a ladder in the precarious position on the Behistun Inscription?

Very carefully !

Now these are scary as they actually happened which is frightening in its self 😮😮😮

[@robaxl3088]

4:00 looks like it’s altered ..look at the part of the cats back that you can see thru..it is it the quality of the pic?…I know a lot of fake pictures from the past are going around …just be aware and don’t everything you see

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Welcome, you might be new to the channel… We have a reputation for dismissing thousands of photos before selecting…. At least 95% of the photos we see do not get used …. Most of them are very rare .. with the exception of this one which is actually quite well known … certainly not fake.

[@GhastlyCretin]

I think that's just the colouring of the cat...

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Very rare that I post a photo that I've seen elsewhere but I love cats so I posted this one. But yes i believe it to be the color of the cat also ... going by the others I've seen of this photo

[@sammycrangle1000]

Injoyed your video thank you

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you too

[@papabits5721]

Did the cow thing work?

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

That’s a good question … I’m not sure of the answer unfortunately. I will tell you that my cat seems calmer when I play piano but I’m not sure that’s a good reference point …lol

[@CanMoose]

Cows love music..happy cows makes for good milk

[@hensonlaura]

I hope you will rethink the large banner for your comments, it covers so much of the picture I have to double back (wait for it to fade again) to see the details, and often the subject of the picture.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

The vast majority of people like it just the way the are and that's after much experiment. So, I go with the majority on these things. However, many have pointed out for those who wish to spend more time just viewing the photo (like I do !) The banner lasts for 8 secs ... just hit pause (you have another 7 seconds to do that). Then you can look for as long as you like. Hope this helps.

[@alyssamcintosh5868]

Dear God, anything but that! 0:54 Couldn’t the poor kid just wait for his loose tooth to fall out? 😟🫣 For that suffering, give him some 💵

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

The old tested method was to tie string to a door and slam it shut ... This worked and was how my first loose tooth was removed as a little one !

[@athenathegreatandpowerful6365]

It doesn't hurt. I pulled a couple of mine that way. Generally they did it with kids who were known biters. You had to be sure your tooth was underneath your pillow, no tooth no dime. Kid was probably afraid it would come out and he'd lose it so had mom pull it.
