That's inflation for ya. It's especially jarring when you see old western movies where they fully expect to live the rest of their lives on about 500 dollars.

It was also way more unusual for someone to be recording with a camera, it instantly made people shine. Now every human has a camera with them at all times.

I like this statement.

Its just enjoying the moment alongside other human beings, knowing we are not on this earth for a long time. Scary for them to think this happened a long time ago

Back when personal video cameras were unknown and people didn't have privacy concerns over them.

It appears the whole world is just a music festival in this video

This is how the 80s were. People actually talked to each other.

Y’all are so weird with this now. Just bc people don’t want to talk to U, doesn’t mean nobody talks to one another

I mean if you’re drunk and everyone else around you is drunk like these people you’re going to socialize & be happy to meet new people. No matter what time period

Hope it gave you a chuckle as well.

Totally, if you did this now you'd just get attitude and ignored and possibly someone would get aggressive

Totally true. Even the 90's was when I was a kid, I wish I was born in a different time. Zoomers are really stuck in a bad place...

@@masterofdragons82 when portable cameras were made my guy. It just died out in the 20st century when we realized that people are weird.

Well the thing is the person holding the camera's actually pretty nice and charismatic, unlike most of the people who hold up cameras to people's faces today in order to *mostly* shame them and make fun of them. You don't see any homeless people getting angry that someone's recording themselves while giving them money.

@@KidAteMe1LetsBuildsAndMore Exactly. It’s charisma, something much less common nowadays since people aren’t as adept socially by in large

Pretty bizarre actually

@@KidAteMe1LetsBuildsAndMore idk I’d still find it odd if a nice charismatic guy came up to me w a camera in my face. I’m sure most of us would, stop the cap😂😂

there was no reason to since nowadays u never know where ur face will end up on the internet when you get recorded

Damn... forreal.

dude looks like matthew mcconaughey

This is a small sample, but still it seems like you might be right. And it would make sense.

I can confirm. Having been raised in Russia, which during the 90s was the same as this in terms of technology (if not further back), I was absolutely shocked when I moved to the US in 2005 and how weird and shy the kids were. It didn't affect me though as by the time I moved (at the age of 15) I had already developed strong social skills and very high and unshakable confidence. It started really bad around 2010-2011 when I was finishing college and smartphones became more popular. If anything people should take it upon themselves to develop the skills and build the confidence. I personally love a challenge.

@@ent2220all you can confirm is your personal experience. One that is not indicative of shit. That is what data is for.

@@afalseerra9517 And what's that data you're referring to? Moreover, I don't think data is necessarily needed given that you can go outside at any time and simply observe people constantly on their phones, which obviously discourages social interactions. Without phones, people were encouraged to socialize, the same way they are now by their phones, in order to have something to do / not get bored etc.

I noticed that. All of the electronics are draining our central nervous systems

It was a great era...I was 16 in 1987.

Mako 44 I wish I grew up in that era

Urban Género TV You would have loved it, there was no internet, instagram, facebook, etc. Every person you ever met, you met them in person and outdoors...and if you met a girl you liked or met a cool guy you made friends with, you sent each other letters, or post cards, or you called them from your landline phone from home.

Mako 44 that sounds a lot more human. Exactly why I said it

So fucking true

Tbf 30+ years of people using cámaras probably becomes not new and interesting and instead annoying

Usually cameras nowadays are assumed as being used to record someone doing something bad or probably talking smack behind their back, so people tend to get annoyed when they get filmed without being told

my thoughts exactly, very wholesome

That's because you're old now. Happens to all of us :(

Ｅｚｅｋ yeah, exactly. people get offended or they get creeped out. just the way it is. we're too busy talking to people online, we forgot how to talk to them in person.

Ｅｚｅｋ I drunkly talk with strangers nearly every time I go out so, maybe you're just not as approachable as you think you are

Ｅｚｅｋ yeah they had to back then for entertainment. We would probably be like that too if it wasn't for phones and other technology.

Ｅｚｅｋ I'm late as hell lol but I agree. I got fucked over and missed all the good years like this. I was born in 96 but with the way I was raised on top of just being different, I dont belong even a little in this generation-_- Then again, depends where you are. When I lived in Trinity Texas, it was almost like a whole separate little world, nothing but friendly people in what we called a"subdivision". Whether you know everyone or not, doesn't matter, they always smile and ask how you are.. But Houston Texas was way different. Same as where I'm from, Wildwood, New Jersey, home of scum and junkies where everyone thinks they're a "Gangsta" but in reality would get their add handed to them in the real ghetto.😂I swear, I don't belong here!

No social media means more social in real life rather than being more social on a app

That's actually one of my favorite parts of the video...it's almost like it's staged...with people entering on cue. But it's not.

It's beautiful.

Wish all of my conversations would go like that

Ryan Wood It almost feels like it was filmed for a movie lol.

Reminds me of a chill acid trip. All the strangers just flow in and out, playing along.

I guess to be fair this was back when video cameras were uncommon and special. Nowadays everybody is trying to be a vlogger and oftentimes people make a nuisance trying to film attention-seeking videos in public. Definitely a shame either way though

You try this anywhere and you will be asked to leave and cops called on you saying you were scaring customers

Social media has passively made people more alienated, vain and paranoid. The restraint is a complete choice. But you are definitely right lol.

FrobblOo I can tell you're an absolute delight to be around.

FrobblOo The issue isn't that it's a complete culture overhaul though, there will always be friendly people and there will always be snobby anti social cunts, sure. Nostalgia obviously plays part in the sadness and happiness that this video brings, but it's a fact that drug culture runs far more rampant these days, and with the advent of social media, more and more people are beginning to feel a false sense of entitlement. When I go out, sometimes I'll have an absolute fucken blast, but more often than not, I run into a large amount of people with superiority complexes that can only be attributed to internet culture that has only emerged over the last 5-10 years. So of course we can still find friendly fun seekers and party like its 1987 today, it's just that they aren't as prevalent.

FrobblOo WORLD STAR!!!!!

Maybe it's not only nostalgia.... I feel like so many things are so much better today : fashion, food, style in general, technology of course. Thanks to the internet, our lives have been improved A LOT : we can learn everything. How to speak a language, how to cook, how to style our hair and put our make up on, how to start a business, how to make a world tour.... Being a teenager was a nightmare till a few years ago. Except for a small minority from the upper class, nobody knew what to do with their hair, with their bad skin.... Young people were a lot more socially awkward because they couldn't improve their social skills on the internet. STILL, even if technically, except for music, a lot of things sucked..... the MINDSET was different. The 80's were about EXCITEMENT.... people felt like the world entered a new era of modernity and there was that "everything is possible" feeling. Now the most overwhelming feeling is FEAR..... fear of the future, of terrorism, of demography, of poverty. My mom always told me how young people didn't think about their old days during the 80's; Never. People didn't even think about buying houses..... renting was enough. People didn't think about the future, and that's a pretty strong indicator of a happier time for me.

People have been complaining about the old days being better since the dawn of time. Folks in this comment section are only remembering the good of this decade and not the bad.

I'd have to agree

Nah.. 1987 was just that much better

This literally happened to me at a 7/11 last year. They called the cops.

Hexa unfourtonetly true

Mostly because there wasnt internet back then.

Nope its just about recording everything just to get likes and views.

I think we're just more desensitized to recording. A lot of these people seem to brighten up as they see a camera as tho conscious that they could end up on TV (home cameras were bulkier and clearly gave the impression of a small TV crew to some of them) It also helps this is 2 AM. I get the sense that half these cats are drinking.

have you ever used social interaction in a 7-11 and been friendly at the same time?

You haven’t watched a Mr Beast video if you think people aren’t friendly like that anymore though.

It's the reaction I'm always prepared for but seldomly get..how unfortunate.

We were much less pathological and neurotic back then.

Where are you from? What part of the country?

@natalie garavagno I've lived in the south my entire life, and while there is still some old time culture around, it's becoming less and less common.

@natalie garavagno Oh yeah, I can see that.. I grew up in Florida, then Nashville TN, now Greenville SC, and we're prob more laid back and friendly than the rest of the country.. but not by much. I prefer the old fashioned lifestyle of actually knowing your neighbors first name, but with people's faces glued to smart phones and Instagram and Facebook all day, it's harder for that to happen. Every Christmas I'm surprised by how exactly 0 kids are outside playing.. it's unreal to me. And I'm only 31.

It's easy, you just start talking. I talk to strangers all the time. I have been asked where l was from once, had everyone laughing. It's easier without a effing mask

actually no. I agree with you to an extent. people don't welcome randoms like they used to. disregard my last comment.

i think a lot of the reason why people don't welcome randoms also has to do with the political climate, everyone is very hostile and on edge

im shooketh that definitely hasn't helped things. There's a divide right now that has split up our country. So much venom being spewed on both sides. I just sit back and shake my head. Cheers to you.

We also have smartphones to dissociate from our surroundings. We as a result only end up caring to talk to who we know instead of the random behind us on line.

Because everyone looked at eachother in the eye now it’s the camera lens

Because people had character back then. Everyone is so rude and antisocial these days. It's sad :/

Is that a rhetorical question? Most everyone was a character of sorts before the advent of constant, silent online communication.

It's still this way in Oklahoma

I "totally" agree. I was a junior in HS in 87, and had NO IDEA that in 2024 how f' up we would become. So sad. I miss these "normal" fun, crazy days. We have lost SO much in way of just having a good time and relating with others.
