@grahamwil @JamesLucasIT I was in Lake Tahoe in 78, and hitching was easy. I had a guest from UK stay for 9 months with me here in Hawaii; so thankful I saw the world in the last century.

@MusicPills10 I knew the next century was going to suck. Watched the world go to hell.

This is real footage from 127 years ago.

A family was performing their acrobatic act in Paris, in 1899, and someone was there to film it...

What you are watching was captured by the Lumière brothers, Auguste and Louis, the two Frenchmen who pioneered cinema. Only a few years earlier, in December 1895, they had held the first public screening of projected film in history, using their invention, the Cinématographe.

Now they were pointing their camera at the world around them, recording ordinary life as almost no one ever had before: workers leaving a factory, a train pulling into a station, and this, a family of acrobats throwing their bodies through the air.

The performers were the Kremos, a celebrated troupe who had created their signature act just a few years before this film was made. They were what circus people call icarists, specialists in a breathtaking discipline where one performer lies on their back and launches another into the air with their feet, catching and re-launching them like a juggler using human beings instead of clubs.

The family kept the act alive for generations. Their descendants were still performing, on stages around the world, more than a century after this film was made...

@adrenaIinIendnz why do they have a shitty bulb that only lasts 6 months? What a joke.

@one_miloo Those nailers on the joists supporting the deck are not painted or covered, probably not even treated, and even the nails are probably shit screws or not galvinized. This is why I always built my own houses. Typical half ass job I see on so many houses.

@Elissamaiss Everyone needed to see this again and again. But, then, It's obvious, that they just don't give a fuck.

@nature_yukiueda This is how I fished daily in Hawaii. THe tuna are swimming under them. When they run like this I could catch tuna up to 200lbs!
