Rare Historical Photos That Really Pack A Punch

[@jeparish]

Wow, Franco Columbu and Sly Stalobe training in 1904 didn't realise they were that old. Surely you mean 1984, maybe.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Oh no … that’s 2 weeks in a row I’ve done that 🙈 … At least they know it’s still me making the videos 🤣

Thank you for posting , I loved the music !

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you !! … Pink Floyd are one of my top three bands and biggest influences in the music I compose 🎹🤗

[@Roger-vz7ol]

I love your work. It is amazing to be able to feel what it was like all of those years ago. The photo of Lucy Smith and Pauline Rankin ascending the Salisbury Craig in dresses in 1908 speaks volumes. 👍💪

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Wow, thank you! … I loved that photo when I found it … the fact that they are wearing long skirts and regular clothes while doing that climb is amazing … people were a different breed back then

[@sanddabz5635]

@7:51...Wow! I had no idea that Franco Columbu and Sylvester Stallone were that old, jeez liftin" weights in New York City in 1904😂🤣

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Noted elsewhere already and corrected in description … My weekly mistake 🤗

[@Maxroffe56]

Great collection!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@rachelsill79]

8:00 I had no Idea Sylvester Stallone was so old. Looking great for 145!!😂😂

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

I stand by the date … probably 🤣🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈

[@kathytaverna9987]

That's amazing what the 2 women did climbing the mountain 😮😊

[@l.l.2463]

Excellent, as always. I think of your craft as being akin to old-fashioned quilting: They would often put in a deliberate mistake to remind themselves and others that only God is perfect. :)

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Bravo for thinking outside of the box.👏🏻 The more people comment, the more the KZbin algorithm promotes a video … Without question the most comments have been on videos with a mistake. Let’s just say I make too many mistakes and when they happen I’m not at all as upset as a perfectionist should be 😉

[@l.l.2463]

@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos Humility has its own kind of perfection! ;)

[@jujumulligan43]

Very well done. So many images, unfortunately of war and mankind's inability to live in peace. Another sad image is of the lion, walking alone in a desperate looking landscape towards its enevitable demise thanks probably to mankind. Why can't we learn to live together??

[@Rubeless]

Answer, greed.

[@Scout-ff6sh]

2:22 long skirts and no climbing boots!

[@chrissmurray255]

Holy Moly! 09:15... That Norwegian angler and the fish must have had one hell of a battle!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

“We’re gonna need a bigger boat” and "Call me Ishmael." Both came to mind 😆

[@DuckReach432]

The line of children evacuees from 1941 was very sad. Some of those little ones would still be alive. I wonder if any stayed in contact with one another after the war?

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

My aunt was one of them …

[@dianehinton4225]

Sometimes the children were never collected. For example both parents died in the war. A horrible time.

[@ianmax5263]

The helmet with the mortar shell in it was disturbing. If it was in someone’s head, survival is unlikely. Wars are horrible

[@johntyjp]

Just a different version of a mortar board that's all?!!🥴

[@tonyhewitt1345]

I suspect the helmet was on the ground when hit by the mortar.

[@eldonhoward7925]

Surviving that would be impossible. If they were wearing it when it happened their head would still be in it. At least until it was nuetralized.

[@elizabethpaton6807]

Wow that was inspiring

[@rdleahey]

The background music is important. This background music was great!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you 🤗

[@johnholland7369]

If Sly Stallon is 25-30yr old in that picture, in 1904. That would make him 145ish. Looking Good Sly. Lol

"vain"

[@pepperjonesugoChristian]

“Gone Fishing 1904” is what made soldiers in their day - no fear of death. Today life is held at a distance by many through media. It’s an imaginary world. Life on a farm or in touch with nature (hunting and fishing) prepares the person for sympathy with life and the necessity for death. That’s my take on the soldiers of yesterday and today upon observing your black & white photos.

[@Rubeless]

Deep

[@Sarahyoutubeaddict]

Great how 🤔 the viewer has time to ponder the photos 📸

[@joewelsh8979]

The toy guillotine... wow😮😮

[@wraubertoslots]

Oddly enough, not the same old recycled images that you are used to. I don't even know if I've ever seen any of these before.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

This channel is known for showing the rarer photos. So much clickbait and repetitive nonsense out there. I do hours of research and try to negate anything I think people have seen a lot. Not an exact science but only about 1 in every 500-1000 photos I find makes it. Its pretty time consuming but Im glad its appreciated :)

[@janebrown1706]

Robert Graves said his father would meet the trains of wounded at Victoria Station in WW1 - prob scared his son would be among them. And the shot up stirling bomber pic brings it all home of what it was like!!

[@ThreenaddiesRexMegistus]

That 18” gun would weigh substantially more than 4 tons. More like 150 tons. The shell weighs 1.5 tons. (BL18 Mk1 18” Naval Gun) A medium excavator can weigh 28 tons and contain much less steel. The breech, recoil system, and carriage would be massive. They could launch the equivalent of a medium car to a distance of about 30 km. The 16” guns on the Iowa class battleships could penetrate 27 feet of reinforced concrete at 10,000 yards for comparison, although these were more efficient and had comparatively longer barrel ratios.

[@Silverado1st]

I always knew Stalone is a time traveler, now I have the proof!

[@Lotte_Da]

There is this image call “the cult of the watermelon” on the internet archive. Just an interesting image from where I used to live.

[@Angelina-zu6no]

5'19 Pain's fireworks is more likely the 1940s than 1928 going by the hairstyle and shoes which were the fashion of that time

[@associatedblacksheepandmisfits]

Not a dreidel , but the spinner for a game of put and take.😊

[@Sarahyoutubeaddict]

Seriously, one wheeled motorbike 🏍, how did they arrive at that decision 😳

[@seandelap8587]

I thought something didn't seem right when it said that Sylvester Stallane was lifting waits in 1904 unless it was his grandfather with the same name as him and looked like him aswell

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Nope not his grandfather … just me being an idiot again 🙈

[@Rubeless]

Sean, you made plenty of spelling and grammar errors in your comment. Living in a glass house?

[@cheriem432]

@7:50 - is this Sly Stallone the movie star? from 1904?? I'm so confused . . .

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Typo … corrected in the description

[@TimothyKeith-Lucas]

It’s not a “farthing,” it’s a “penny farthing,” from the relative sizes of the old British penny and farthing and the front and back wheels. A farthing was 1/4 penny.

[@rattus3102]

4:22 That's just horrible! 😂

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

… at least I hope it’s a toy 😳

[@michelefritchie6198]

The photo of Sly Stallone weightlifting can't be from 1904; more like 1964.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

1980 … It was a typo

[@Rubeless]

Franco was a terminator, maybe he was sent to 1904 to off Sarah’s grandmother.

[@Sarahyoutubeaddict]

Hope no-one was trapped under the 📖 bookshelves 📚

[@Beverly-b8r]

Sly Stallone 1904?

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Not my first typo … and almost certainly not the last.

[@BlueSky-n2q]

Alot of those little war refugees were never returned to their right ful mothers lost forever due to not enough record taking so they could be returned so sad

1904 stallone?? That one cant be right the man wasnt born till what 1946 I think

The helmet looks like a Russian army one .

[@DavidLIrick]

You beat me to that one!! Lol! It is sad that today’s generation doesn’t even know who Sylvester Stallone is. Franco Columbo, was Arnold Schwarzenegger’s best friend, and an accomplished bodybuilder. I guess any black and white photo must be from long, long ago. Pathetic 😂

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

I started lifting when I was 14 and Arnie & Franco were my idols. No matter how many times I proof it, I always throw in a typo or two every week 🤣 Btw … it’s Columbu .. see how easy it is ? 🤣
