This is some incredible footage from the innovative Lumiere Brothers in 1899 of a troupe of child acrobats in Paris performing some stunts, including a human pyramid and two members passing and juggling a small boy with their feet like he’s a sack of potatoes. The footage was colorized and

This is some surprisingly decent quality handheld footage (complete with mosh pit and crowd surfing!) from a 1994 No Doubt concert at Cal State’s Fullerton campus, about a year prior to the release of the band’s ‘Tragic Kingdom’ album. Granted a tripod for this camera would have been nice, but

Brought to us by Youtuber glamourdaze, this is some AI restored footage (noise and artifacts removed, upscaled to 60fps and 4K, color added) of life at Paris’s cafes in the 1920’s. It’s all got a very Great Gatsby feel to it, just Parisian. Obviously, while watching it I’ll try to

Created as part of WIRED’s Game Over(analyzed) series, this is a video of military historian Mike Loades (great name for a military historian) providing an in-depth analysis of the realism of medieval weaponry and armor used in games like Dark Souls, Mordhau, The Witcher 3, For Honor, and Kingdom Come:

This is some breathtaking footage from various locales around the world as filmed in the 1890’s and recently restored and colorized via artificial intelligence. It really is something to see.

This is a 3D visualization comparing the size of the largest living versus extinct animals of the same species, with a human standing there for reference/to keep the predators’ attention. In almost all cases, there was a larger species that has since gone extinct. I mean, if you believe the

This is Bataille de boules de neige (Snowball Fight) by Louis Lumière, a short silent film shot in Lyon, France in 1896 that’s been upscaled and colorized using DeOldify, an open-source AI tool that does just that. The result is impressive. Also, I really liked the plot: everybody nail the

This is a video of Youtuber and magician musician Johan Carlsberg performing a medieval bardcore cover of AC/DC’s ‘Thuderstruck’, with some accordion thrown in for good measure despite the accordion not being invented until the early 1800’s. Dammit *kicking over medieval armor display* this bardcore isn’t even canon! Now, where’s
