Amazing Historical Photos
The Best Rare Historical Photos Channel is Here !
This channel began due to my interest in history and especially rare old photos that really speak to the soul.
As a self-taught pianist & composer, I decided in December 2022 to make a video of old photos set to my music. That first video received over 100,000 views and 1,500 subscribers in the first 3 weeks alone. The vast majority of comments were very positive. So, I'll keep making theses videos for as long as they are enjoyed.

lovely agatha as a nurse.love her books
The inflatable tanks were a part of the ghost army of the United States.
Both Britain and the United States both used them frequently.
Forks were also dangerous weapons in the Middle Ages.
That rock at Glacier Point is no joke. I’ve been there many times and it never gets less scary. It drops for several thousand feet below that
I’m terrified of heights … I can’t look down … Scariest thing I ever did was drive up 14,000 ft of Pikes Peak in Colorado on the narrow windy roads with no safety barriers … my hands nearly ripped the steering wheel off they were gripped so tight 🤣
Cowboy and chuck wagon are not in Bonham Tx. Only far west and south Tx has mountains like that, Bonham is far east Tx.
Those Empire State Building steel workers were some of the bravest people on the planet. Right up there with Bearing sea crab fishermen. 😮
😊👌 NICE!
Thanks! 😄
pretty sure the last one was faked in a studio with a painted backdrop, that was not taken in the air as it purports to be
It literally says “Portrait of” … Portraits were usually done in a studio with a backdrop. It doesn’t even purport to be taken in the air … But he was the first to take an aerial photograph from a balloon
The size of that horse's neck!
As appealing as ever, these photos take us on a worthwhile jour6ney back in time.
Glad you enjoyed it 🤗
Fascinating depictions of human inventions across the years, and other memorable images.
What an excellent adventure through the world in black and white. People never change.
I watched a documentary about lobotomies, beyond disturbing. It was recommended for just about any and every mood or emotional problem. Plus a few hormonal. The way they altered peoples lives is unforgivable!
Thanks, interesting pictures! 👍
Thank you too 🤗
It's not Sins Sing prison it's Sing Sing but maybe this is an intentional play on words? 2:10
No I’m not that clever… it’s a typo … I have to throw one in every now and then so people know that it’s still me making the videos 😃
Enjoyed another wonderful selection of photos thank you !👍🏼🇬🇧
Many thanks! 🤗
X-ray - the cure was worse.
I agree the lobotomy was very creepy
Fantastic photos, as always. Thank you, Mark. My favourite channel.
The music is mesmerizing.
Thank you very much
@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos your music keeps more scrolling for the next set. Absolutely lovely.
🐘🚙 The idea for, “Babar the elephant”.
American flag 🇺🇸
👍
...and today people are getting freckles tattooed on their face.
That’s a thing ?
The first one with the cow…I thought she missed her pet ZEBRA or something!🤣
🤣
Mark I love your channel, your photos never fail to fascinate and amaze me and although I am a rock n roll kinda person I can listen to your music for hours. That being said with respect you really gotta work on your titles! LOL
I compose relaxing music for a living but prefer to listen to really heavy progressive metal like Opeth and Gojira 🤗 …. I hate the titles myself … but the KZread algorithm requires a certain type of title or the video will never be seen … Wish I could just put volume 1, 2 , 3 .. but the algorithm would ignore the channel completely
Lobotomy was creepy..rest weren't.Thanks.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy. 😂
Sad that we used to such things
5:10 wow! She's ripped!
Love your pictures!,! Just wondering if you could use white lettering on a transparent background so as to be able to see the whole picture! I sometimes will save a picture of perhaps a famous person, place, etc. but the explanations often cover a nice part. Just asking! Pictures are just for me!
I wish I could see the biggest horse)
was there two weeks ago it was surreal i had dreamed of visiting the Valley of the Kings and pyramids since i was a child and first saw them in a National Geographic magazine i am 72 years old
Wow that’s incredible … Did you feel safe ??? you are so much braver than me ! … The only place I haven’t been that I would love to go … Just not thrilled about going to such an unsafe place without my 9mm. I’m quite a bit younger and it’s not like I’m a beta male.. I lift heavy weights and do some mma, … lol so I guess I gotta just suck it up and get over there … You have inspired me 💪🏻👍🏻
@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos wife and i felt perfectly safe we were with tour group and tour company had a guard with us he had a heckler-koch submachine gun under sport coat only aggravation were the 'vendors' at markets who were very pushy dont worry about hurting their feeling just say "La!" which means no.........traffic laws did not seem to exist everyone drove as they pleased and blew horns constantly but no crashes! the whole experience was like visiting another planet.....it was truly a trip of a lifetime
@alanhodge984 Thank you so much for that input … I would definitely do it with a tour guide / company.. Knowing the guard is packing brings me some comfort .. so long as he doesn’t turn of course !!! .. My mum is obsessed with pyramids and Egypt and I would love to take her .. she’s not young anymore so I was worried about the danger … I’m going to look into it some more … Thanks again
@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos we used Viking River Cruises they made the trip 'seamless' and we had an egyptologist with us to explain everything........the camel ride at the pyramids was a blast take your mom!! get going!!
You really should explain for non-horse people that the 6 ft 6 in tall is at his whithers/shoulders, not the top of his head.
I wish I had room in the caption for such a lengthy explanation. Unfortunately I do not. However, let's pin this and people can see it at the top 👍
Guess a lot of folks don't know that in the MW and SE, men reared to be proper referred to RR time as "thinking sessions". Mr Williams knew this well although he had begun referring to it as Hairy Ploppers.
Love these old photos! I especially love the one of Shrimp & Moe Howard! They were actually quite handsome!
I wonder if the mother's 8 sons made it through the war and came home. I had 7 brothers in the military!
All came home 🤗
Health and safety hadn't been invented then obviously! 😅 But must more fun 😊
2:57 Few Wikipedia facts about Henry: -In 1913, his sister Ida swam all the way around Manhattan with Henry on her back. -1916, attempted to swim 20+ miles from southern Manhattan to New Jersey; needed rescue one quarter mile from completion. -Also 1916, swam one and one half mile across an extremely dangerous river from Queens to Manhattan while carrying 2 men with a total deadweight of 323 pounds. Nearly drowned when caught in a whirlpool and the two men panicked.
Thank you for giving the people in these images their dignity - not many do, so I subscribed to your channel. The picture of Evgeny Stepanovich Kobytev before and after war is heartbreaking - everyone should see the devastation of war...but from this sweet boys' face - not by experience. The price he paid might be worth it if it saved another boys' life.
My grandmother saw 12 of her sons go off to war, two of which were tail gunners. They all came home safely.
That is absolutely incredible ❤️ … I have posted several tail gunner photos in prior videos … they absolutely fascinate me … every year I go to a special Memorial service and make it a point to seek out every single ww2 vet and thank them … There aren’t many left … This year I met a 101 year old submariner and a 102 year old Tuskegee airman … such an honor These ww2 veterans are gods to me ❤️
The Success transported many prisoners to Australia. They were subjected to cruel punishments on the way including in the iron maiden.
Not true. That was the legend told by the charlatans who bought her from dry dock and turned her into a museum. She was a convict ship but only held prisoners in dock. She was a cargo ship then a prison ship... but NEVER a convict transport ship... that was all made up by entrepreneurs. None of the artifacts were on that ship. Although they were likely used on actual transport ships. ... Just not the success Heres the TRUE story. www.youtube.com/@AmazingHistoricalPhotos/community
@@AmazingHistoricalPhotosso I guess the book I have about the ship that was published in 1929 and reports that "an official communication dated from Whitehall August 18, 1786, informed the Lord Commissioners of the treasury that the goals were crowded and that it would be necessary to ship the prisoners off somewhere" is inaccurate and the photos of a "the back of the prisoner being washed with cold salt water after a flogging"; the one of a prisoner being branded with a broad arrow in the hand; and the one of a prisoner being flogged with witnesses, one of whom has on a prisoners jacket and a ball & chain attached to him must have been faked too. Sad to think of such big lies.
@marionabbott7173 all of those things likely happened … just not on the Success
I was not aware of the book but a 10 second search shows that yes the book also was part of the marketing ploy of the lie … here’s just one of the countless references to the true story about the fraud of the story and the book www.phototimetunnel.com/success-the-convict-ship-that-wasnt
@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos thank you for the information. I appreciate it. I love the old photographs and the stories that accompany them...when true.
Wow…my hometown of Virginia, MN made the cut for the ski jump ❤. And I agree…a BIG nope from me as well! 😱
It looks very cold there 🥶
The flooded Pantheon (5:00) was because of global warming, of course.
🤣
A lovely set of photos. Thanks, Mark. Good to see a "Nope" picture, too. 😊
One of the nopiest ever nopes !
@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos Yep! 😄
