San Francisco 1906 (New Version) in Color [VFX,60fps, Remastered] w/sound design added

I colorized , restored and I added a sky visual effect and created a sound design for this video of San Francisco 1906, A Trip Down Market Street, Shot on April 14, 1906, four days before the San Francisco earthquake and fire. From the front of a cable car, a motion picture camera records a trip down Market Street, San Francisco, California, from a point between 8th & 9th Streets, Eastward to the cable car turnaround at the Ferry Building,
Video Restoration Process:
✔ FPS boosted to 60 frames per second
✔ Image resolution boosted up to HD
✔ Improved video sharpness and brightness
✔ Colorized only for the ambiance (not historically accurate)
✔added sound design only for the ambiance
✔restoration:(stabilisation,denoise,cleand,deblur)
✔ SKY Visual Effects (not historically accurate)
Please, be aware that colorization colors and SKY Visual Effects are not real and fake, colorization and VFX was made only for the ambiance and do not represent real historical data.

    I'm fascinated by the eclectic mix of transportation. On one street you've got horse drawn buggies alongside automobiles, and these alongside electric trolleys and bicycles. It captures a very unique moment in time with the 19th century on the way out, but the 20th just being ushered in. It reminds me how in any era you can see those glimpses of "how it's always been" mixed with what is to come.

    What makes this even more fascinating is that this was filmed just two days before the April 18th 1906 San Francisco earthquake. One of the deadliest events in United States history. Over 80% of the city was destroyed, fires raged throughout the city, and more than 3,000 people died as a result of that earthquake. This isn't only the oldest video of this kind, but it captures images of the city and structures than would soon be gone forever.

Also, what you said sent chills down my spin. Some of the people in this video may have died 2 days later and this was their moment to be immortalized.

What we see in this video looks so old and outdated to us, but they felt they were modern compared to life 100 years before them. Many people in this video were literally seeing a motion picture camera for the first time in their life, in person. That's why you see some people looking at the train car the way they are. At 5:11 for example. It's weird because I look at this video and one of the things I think is, it would be so cool to be there in person and look at all of that history. Then to realize that 100+ years from today, people will watch our videos and think similar things. Like you said, we're all a blink in time. Life is a shooting star.

    YES! The idea of matching wheel widths dates back at least as far as mining carts in the 17th/18th centuries. But of course there the tracks were laid to match wheel widths instead of the other way around. (*) Also this film's been digitized and cleaned up using AI which makes it a lot clearer than the original which was pretty rough-looking. (*) Being a railfan I've done some research on the claim that track widths date back to Roman times, but there doesn't appear to be a lot of primary-source info. Most of the documents quote other documents that point around in a big circle of citations.

The kids scattered in this video were only 65 to 75 when I was 10 in the late 1960s. Some of the young adults seen here were still only 80 or so when I was 10. They aren’t just historical ciphers to us; we actually knew people who lived in this time. People 80 years old today could have known people 40 years old in this video, and, of course, everybody younger than that. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to believe... Just sayin’

    Yours is the first comment I read that talks about our ancestors just while I was thinking about my grandmother who lived many years in San Francisco but not quite born yet. I wonder if she ever saw this film, but I'll bet she never saw it in color with sound (passed away in the early 90s, so before KZread or the Internet was a thing.) I wish she had, though. It's remarkable. Yet, I've seen at least 3 major milestones like your great grandfather, starting with the moon landing, then personal computers, and now the Internet with sites like this and smart phone connections to everything (I predicted them but so did many others). I guess you could say smart phones are also a major milestone, maybe? Then there's that helicopter on Mars, but don't get me started, lol. That's getting to be old news now too! Edit: Funny, but I couldn't edit this until a day later because I couldn't find the comment and thought it was glitched off the site, which is strange because that never happened to me before. Oh, well. Anyway, I wanted to add some fun facts and another milestone. I'll start with the latter. I think that's the JWST. If you know what that is, then terrific! If not, simply use another milestone I mentioned to find out! lol. Now for a fun fact: If you think the Golden Gate Bridge is a milestone, which I sort of do, then you might know that they had a contest and election to celebrate its grand opening with a "Fiesta" queen. To make a long story short, my grandmother's sister was elected queen. I've seen pictures of her in a book about the bridge showing herself in the queen's attire and crown, but I didn't know until yesterday on the official bridge website that there was some controversy about who actually won the election! Imagine that, in 1937, when President Roosevelt hit the switch to let cars pass over the bridge for the first time, an election controversy was reported in at least one of the newspapers. Fast forward to 2020, anyone? lol.

I read the whole book once many years ago and found it poorly written, lol. I guess that's why I didn't try to get a book copy for something I only wanted the interesting chapter. Btw, the picture I recall best shows her perched on a huge propeller of a plane in her queen attire, very glamorous looking! The website says she was 19 yo, married someone later named Brady, had 8 kids, and died in 1985. I recall my grandma talking about her older sister fondly, but I never met her.

    It's amazing how many early motor cars there were in 1906. San Francisco was wealthy and affluent. The shadows demonstrate that it was filmed around noon, and the precise movement of the camera to the street car tracks indicate it was mounted on a street car. Certainly a slower pace but definitely a bustling city.

    The film was sent off on the evening of the day it was filmed, heading by the Trans-Continental railroad to New York, where it was processed. There were no processing labs on the West Coast at this time. That's the reason why the film exists today.

    ​@@cryvsspy Hi, the finding of this "lost in time" film was reported widely at the time. The info was the film survived because it wasn't in SFO when the earthquake struck, because it was shipped off immediately to the East Coast. Judging by photos and early films showing the damage after the EQ, it's likely the unprocessed film would have been lost, possibly in the fires and early film was made of highly inflammable nitrate stock.

    As an SF local, it's crazy to see how much has changed and how much has remained the same. I can immediately recognize Market St, and the Ferry Building in the background. Not sure if it's the way it's shot, or maybe because of the earthquake, but it seems the street had a slight slope before (it's completely flat today - again, may just be the camera angle). Some interesting things I observed: @1:29 - That angelic statue to the left is Admission Day Monument, still there on Montgomery. Apparently erected in 1897... less than a decade old in the video! @3:18 - The cable car (now buses) took the same exact route, towards Haight & Stanyan! This is where Amoeba Music is today. I notice it says "Park" after "Stanyan" ... that's where Golden Gate Park intercepts the bus route. I wonder if the park was once named Stanyan Park? Because there is a Stanyan Park Hotel just a block away from the stop (apparently built in 1904!). @3:39 - Couldn't help but notice the 767 Market St sign to the right. That's now a boutique clothing store (St. John's). @5:34 - building to the left with the pediment, I think is where the Hyatt Hotel is now, based off the angled direction it is facing the street. Fun to compare on Google Maps (one of the light posts, though different now, matches up where it stands!). @8:20 - Castro & 26th St ... don't recall if this same direct bus route still exists. Think you might have to make a transfer today to get to that same cross street (I don't use the buses much anymore, so I could be wrong) @8:50 - Couldn't help but notice some cable cars with "Chutes" written on them. After some research, seems it was a huge amusement park in the Haight, apparently demolished around the 50s... just a neighborhood area now.

SF was a cow town in 1848 Gold Rush days with barely 15,000 people living there, and you believe that in 50 years not just these sublime buildings sprung up, but think about the sewer systems, utilities and water it would take to make this happen. If you start working out the logistics, you'll find that it's an impossibility. Then there's the date on the building at the end of this vid. "Erected AD 896". Our history is a lie!

    I watched Biden shake hands with the air and it was good quality. That's pretty paranormal, unless he has dementia, in which case it makes total sense.

    I've always been so fascinated with watching old videos from decades ago. This is by far the oldest, and best I've ever seen. What a treat to be able to experience this!

    I saw one recently that I never knew Thomas Edison filmed from like 1911 or something and it was on the Chesapeake and Ohio canal going from Georgetown to Cumberland. What amazing footage and to see these people during the early part of the 20th century and how they lived. I lived in Maryland for almost 39 years and just moved to West Virginia so the canal is not that far away from here and I've always been fascinated by it. I love that place. I just love to go back in time. And I love how the movements are not all jerky and stuff like in some old films is the case.

    LMFAO what are you talking about, OP? This video is FAKE… you say you like watching this stuff, but are you _actually_ watching??? Are you visually illiterate? Watch car with number 4867 on it; why is it going in the same path/loop over and over and over during this whole video? What is that? And there’s 30+ other things in this video that are completely ridiculous…

    Before any stoplights and street markings. Cars barely missing each other and people! Glad to have this footage for a glimpse of life back then.
