Family At Picnic. Father Uses Tableware To Build Model Of Chevrolet, Showing Center Point Steering, Springs & Shackles, Shock Absorbers & Ventilation System. Animated Line Drawings Reveal Hidden Features Of Vehicle.
@@joetroutt7425 after 60 years your grandson will watch this in quarter the time and still understand it. Maybe after 120 years his grandson wil watch it in one-eight the time and so on …
"Gee mom! We're really hungry. Can we have our lunch now?" "Sorry kids, your father punched holes in the plates and spoons. Looks like you'll have to go hungry." "Aww, gee whiz."
I learn most of what I know from RU-vid and google, mabye about of video games. The school system force feeds you mostly basic information for 12 years of your life. Which explains why I know more about suspension and engine layouts than I do math.
Improvised Weaponry Saw this video a while back and you're absolutely right. Today he would be wearing the potato salad. We've come a long way baby. My wife would just punch me right in the face.
"Well hunny, the ground basics of rocket aerodynamic sound is negated by the flow of water ,see here " builds a rocket from half of a cake a spoon and a pile of leafs as he shoots it I to the atmosphere"
@@michaelrosenstock9187 nah, he would create an electric device that would separate the hydrogen and oxygen from water, then use the fuel and oxidizer as real fuel, then take her to a road, use a rock as chalk against the road, do math regarding Delta V, and theorize as to how fast his rocket could go. How would he power the electric object? Probably his car battery or make some sort of turbine system to produce electricity.
Abdalrahim Abdullah A modern cgi animation of how a transmission works is fucking bullshit and way too complicated. It's the principle of how stuff works what a learning person needs to know. They explained things in these films expecting the viewer that he knows nothing about the subject and used very simple physical objects to represent stuff that is actually in parts of cars aswell as proceeding slowly with the narrator explaining almost everything.
MLG_420 QUICKSCOPE I like Engineering Explained too, but these types of video where the main focus is cars engineering seems to be covered a long time ago by Chevrolet and it is as good as this video.
Hubby -: Pass the tomato sauce ,,, Now when the pilot turns his head the minigun made from the six tooth picks fires into the crowd of defenceless civilians, as you can see from the sauce patterns you get a 98% kill rate with a 2% survivors with life changing injuries... Wifey -: How do you know all this Hubby :- As a Lobbyist and engineer for corporate America we need to be able sell and buy congress man. And having these kind of stats just make my work easy along with a bag of cash. Wifey :- Oh Darling lets never stop making products from left overs.
Commercials back in the day were no joke. Today, everyone's got a high-definition video/audio recording device in their pocket, sometimes for under a hundred bucks. Back then, cameras and all that were huge, cumbersome, expensive, not easy to operate. Commercials used to be big productions. Animation? Graphics? You can google all that nowadays, and there's probably tutorials.
Yep, real facts you can make real decisions about and not just some advertiser's idea of how you should live, so you can pretend you are living that life buy purchasing their car.
All jokes aside this is one of the best explanation videos i have ever seen . ADDS SHOULD BE LIKE THIS. call me a boomer but honestly, these adverts were just straight up better (im gen z BTW)
as a kid we used to race for the seat over the tiers on the bus because they was a giant bump in the road and we would jump in the air when we hit it some of us actually hit the roof a few times
@@ogrengbuddha5373 we did the same thing. One day the driver changed the route, nobody knew it, then the bump came, we all jumped and flew in the air, and the bus driver turned right. I was the second counting from the left. The guy to my left smashed the window, i smashed him and the guy at my right smashed me. I couldn't have laughed more, neither could my friends. Fun fact, my friend at my left was bleeding. None of us noticed, not even him, until we got to school. All the teachers were like "what the hell did you do!?"
@@redking36 you would be VERY surprised how similar your car today operates compared to the one in the video. They still use all those ideas today. Yeah it's not an iPad in the dash, but they are most definitely features you would absolutely notice as soon as you started driving if they weren't devised back then.
@@kengurusafari He's not being dark, he's being logical and realistic. Can't run a lab without science! Unless it's a methlab, then being dark and illogical is mandatory.
@@nickvanderpool4822 YEAH, that exactly what I was thinking. LOL. I literally set it on loop on that part for at least 5 times. Busted out laughing each time.
Partially because people don't want to learn, they like being blissfully ignorant and coasting through life. Not always and not everybody, but it's much more common these days.
The video was just slightly under twelve minutes long! Hahah. These days we have many more distractions competing for our attention than we did back then.
I love these types of films. They explain everything better than any other film made. 1920s-1950s, i love this time period when it comes to automotive engineering.
@@JT-pt5tl other than electronics, most of these designs haven't fundamentally changed, just been improved upon. But we also live in an Era where the general public doesn't seem to care how anything they use works and the companies don't care to tell them.
@@JT-pt5tl nothing about an ICE car has fundamentally changed since this was made. Sure spring amd shock tech has improved, and the steering arms have changed shape, and we have anti roll bars, but nothing is flying or made of unobtanium. If you watch this, you can understand the fundamentals of cars
@@internetbodhi1009 we've moved from leaded gas, to unleaded, and that gas can make more power than any leaded. We also have EFI instead of Carbs. ECUs, OHC instead of OHV, in the 50s' we also didn't have forged internals yet. Now most cars have forged parts and the processes have been improved to optimize efficiency the pistons are stronger and lighter, while having better optimized shapes. as far as the block and head materials, those are now aluminum or ALSI. Not really much has stayed the same exept Suck, squeeze, bang, push.
your comment has brought an unknown clarity and wisdom into my twisted existential life. through all time and space let this comment be humanity's epoch into a better future for all man kind.
Seriously bro big thank YOU for putting out the content you're such a G this channel inspired me to get my kayaks out onto the rivers and lakes and such and flick lures and going camping and all that bit, I've been more outdoorsy over the last two years than likely my entire life beforehand.
I can't tell you how many times I've just been hanging out with the Mrs and broke into a detailed conversation about how our car functioned. Always a good time. 😃
@@Helperbot-2000 Nice! Actually, each of the four wheels already comes equipped with one of those airplane-grade shocks. You can then use these aftermarket ones for seats....to add even more comfort for your family. Hahahah
Know zakly wut u meen!! All that time spent as a kid in the late '50s in the living room looking at the Tube adjusting the WiFi sticks for better signal when you changed channels.
At 9:30... This car is so advanced that it has air ducts to allow air from outside the cabin into the inside of the car where our families are! Here; let me demonstrate by blowing cigarette smoke through this straw directly into your childrens' lungs. XD
If the vent intake was designed wrong, it would trap a lot of leaves and dirt. Add water from moisture in air and you get rust in hard to clean areas that will condemn your vehicle.
Modern cigarettes aren't 100% tobacco anymore. Around the time of the war, they started using filler & sheet tobacco. That's when coincidentally, cancer from cigs started to rise. Smoke premium tobaccy & you'll be fine 😏
himinn cos their shit wasn't fast or made in a microwave or full of added chemicals and salts. (and I ain't talking organic vs non, I don't car for that) but their food was a purer food compared to ours . Also portion control was alot better. Evey place I ate in America fed me 3 x what I needed, with a bucket of sugar pop
You're right, I thought the 50's were more a time of like "let's make it tasty without caring about what's inside" by watching old ads, but they'd probably cook fresh at home, and also people would burn a lot more calories just doing everyday things like housekeeping or just working.
I had a 1949 Chevy Fleetline Fast back for 29 years, a 1952 Chevy Hardtop, in which I replaced the center point steering, and a 1954 Chevy. They were great cars as you could fix just about everything yourself on them!
Kinseydsp Check out my channel. I bought my 49 Chevy Styleline when i was 18 had a 51 2 door Styleline when i was 19 and a 54 4 door 210 now (20) bout to buy a 52 Chevy Grain truck. lol
@@maggs131 most of them are now independent rear suspension as well. Even rear wheel drive trucks have changed significantly from solid front axles, to early independent axles that would eat tires, to independent front suspension that maintains geometry. And even the springs have changed significantly from leaf sprung front suspension, to coil srung, to torsion bar and then eventually struts
I tried assessmbling the same configuration on a picnic with my girl and the kids, using paper plates, skewers and elastic bands. After two hours and forty five minutes I had it finished, the kids had run off and my beloved was shouting "for fucks sake tommi! Stop fucking around with that shit and find them..." Then it started raining.
Wife: Our children just feel off the swing and broke their necks Husband: That's OK, we can take them in the Chevrolet to the hospital and the suspension will make sure their necks don't bounce up and down
Not the ones you've met, maybe! But out there in this world there certainly are women who are interested in "The Way Things Work". ( David Macaulay ) - Not to be intended as advertisement, just a figure of speech!
back in those days, women were family oriented, soft spoken and very humble unlike the spoiled entitled brats we have now. finding a woman like that today is very difficult but also very comforting.
80386 yea and contrary to feminists women back then were rulers of the house, if theu were pissed they really made the man know it, feminists are just sherrypicking cases and some small dicks quots.
Feminist here. Amused, not triggered. I also often have my hard times explaining technical stuff to women... "EVEN YOU will understand this" - Real answer I got: "No, I am a woman." So much to self inflicted supression of the female. True though, some feminazis will get upset about anything...
