They quickly went the way of the Dodo Bird.

Doing dialects and accents used to be a needed skill for voice over or even stand-up. Sadly the thin skinned among us can sometimes be too critical of that. The cries range from cultural appropriation to outright racism. And though I can see that in some cases since material is more expanded today, I'd hate to think a classic, innocent bit like "Si, Sye" with Jack Benny and Mel Blanc would be demonized.

You can't see someone as human until they make an accent? Christ sakes you aren't that special.

@@artdecotimes2942 That is not what I said, twist it how you please, troll.

@@ConfusedGoat13 oh truly, don't call me a troll because I insult you, you are right to be insulted...I don't need to be a troll to tell you that

@@artdecotimes2942 No, you´re not a troll. Just an idiot.

You think the horse "drivers" weren't "brainless?"

Wood racetracks too. Man that's crazy.

Waktu adaLah uang bro 👍👍

Getting burned alive was a pretty common way for race drivers to die.

They would have to have. They were the only things holding them in the car

Take a look at boardtrack racing. They kinda revived it but it still isn't as populair. They are literally bycicles with no brakes going 90 kmh

Exciting, and deadly.

Jaman duLu menyenangkan bro

These early pioneers of motorsports were the true race dogs of the track, all the excitement from two stroke inline four or even basic motorcycle engines chuffing more smoke than an old steam train! Watching the drivers get bounced like peas in a frying pan while fighting for position on the track! True racing that is close and personal and you see all the action unlike today..

Yeah, it was great if ya liked seeing guys beheaded, eviscerated, or burned to death on a weekly basis. Ask Jackie Stewart how great it was.

This was a pretty "normal" style of narration in the 1930s thru 1960s

Her lies Beryl. He died from listening

Cough cough!

Reminds me of the Disney Nature Adventure films narration. Everything had to be educational. Unlike now.

smoke forever

Yes

@@edithlewis9330 Amen to that! Lol

Of course not this case, most people are using that phrase when referring to luxury cars especially Mercs and BMWs that were built from the 80s to mid 90s, which were built to their highest standards and didn't break down once a week. Sometimes that could also be fun to drive Japanese Domestic vehicles before the turn of the century that aren't made like another kitchen appliance like they have been since the early 00s.

This used historical film. All the clips were edited into a movie short in 1955.

Pretty sure it first started out as a dating site lol

"Inventions that never caught on. They lived more in the future than we do in 2021."

Stfu

Exactly!!

With its terrible compression. No not really

These staged comedy scenes with lightweight breakaway fences and other obstructions don't show what happened in real life to early cars that ran into stuff. Those spindly wooden-spoke wheels splintered into pieces, for one thing.

Maybe in those early "horseless carriages" but later, the Model T, with rather stouter "spindly" wooden wheels, were quite a venerable machine.

I know something about fences, and you are right, those weren't real.

truly....i agree you

Real life crash dummies

First cat video.

@@julienielsen3746 😂😂😂😂😂yep

Most likely aerial footage from a biplane.

😐

Just them good ol' boys, Never meaning no harm.

That smoke. AOC’s nightmare.

There's a good chance he broke his back.

The car wasn't designed to be LESS wind-resistant while driving backward -- notice that it lacks fairings of any kind -- but to MEASURE wind resistance in that mode, so that the Airflow design could be compared favorably with it.

@@50zcarsman interesting

your comment is great lmao

Let's see, flat earthers, vax deniers, Q-anon, religious science deniers, moon hoaxers... no, folks then weren't any dumber.

/Sarcasm

let's not forget the chickens

only the people watching had a very slow death from all that smoke a fumes

Except for the cat . Someone threw a boot at it.

Yes that's true lol

The funny thing is, according to statistics, there are more horses now than there was then, except now they are mostly pets.

Google Bill Vukovich at Indy 1955, or Davey McDonald at Indy 1964 and see for yourself.

That would likely be an oil problem

That was special effects to make the story better.

Steam innovators solved the "long brew-up" problem pretty early on, by incorporating high-pressure flash boilers which made it possible to drive off within one minute of starting the car. The Doble steam car of the mid-'30s was considered to be the perfection of the steam car, however it was quite expensive, large, and required more maintenance than a gas job, so it never caught on. But it could run on cheap kerosene, home heating oil, etc, and was quieter and smoother in operation than gasoline competitors. The major internal-combustion engine makers kept up a barrage of public criticism of steam technology until the latter became a joke, at which point the steam era came to an end.

@@50zcarsman the early gas engines of that era could also run on kerosene, stove oil, and home brewed alcohol.
