Disneyland 1956 - HD Home Movies 

i never thought about that holy shit

Who's the leader of the club that's made for you and me?

Jesus Trav, that’s dark

That's cool, that means that some of the people who visited the re-enactment may very well have grown up in the Wild West.

Wow

@@Rymdpandan they say nobody made it out of the wild west

That's pretty cool! The wild west was always insanely popular, and people got nostalgic for it very quickly. I remember reading an anecdote about how Hitler used to read a lot of western stories as a child (this would be in the 1890s), which is, as you said, when the Wild West was still going on. So that means that the appeal for the west apparently extended to even Europe.

So what

Seems like old traditionally recorded footage reels can be restored to a higher quality more easily than the early forms of digital recording quality. Since stuff like old reels of film have a really nice natural resolution to them if they can be transfered to digital format and restored. Why many old shows and movies tend to retain their quality even if there's a bit of film grain type stuff to them, compared to the resolution and quality of early standard definition stuff in digital format like for TV shows in the 90s/early 2000s.

Dude,not expecting to find you in here!

What's your reddit profile?

I read this in your voice

Hey, I once found videos of a water theme park before it got demolished in the 90s, so that was fun. Not sure how I got them, since I'm almost 1000km away from the park, but it was a pretty fun find nonetheless.

It is, it was as close to real magic as it gets.

How was orange county back then? Were you from the area?

I was not from the area. From Washington state, but Anaheim was rural in comparison to today.

did you see get to meet Disney himself?

Doubledipin no we did not

theLMGN hmmm??? Im pretty sure you're the only one who brought politic in this comment section but go off i guess

sarahjacksky Were you there in the 60's? If so then that's actually cool

Yes please save whatever footage you have and post what you can. Don't let it end up in the garbage.

0:21

He's also at the bottom of the frame beginning at 0:13

Post it

portions sizes were really small back then

Not to mention fast food wasn’t popular back then, McDonalds was founded 16 years earlier though

If you go and look through a lot of these historic videos, you'll see barely any obese people. Obesity first started increasing from the 1970s onwards, but didn't reach the epidemic it is today until recently (past 15-25 years).

How do you know something like that???

Nah. 70mm film is wayyyy better than what any commercial TV can output today. Even 8K TV’s don’t do it justice. But most types of film are superior to digital cameras. If not all. I don’t know much about it.

It wasn't restored, mate

You'd be surprised just how good film can be when made well.

Thank you for sending me this video, it's really nice to see the 50's in colour

Said no one ever in the 50s

Actually you can already see him at the bottom at 0:13

As was just about everything back then.

But asbestos is ok now according to the president.

@@theovertaker40 I mean... it's got best right in it

So happy!

@@theovertaker40 1. That's just not true. Trump isn't unbanning asbestos. It was never banned in the United States. We never stopped manufacturing it. The EPA bill takes existing situations in which asbestos is used and says "now instead of just using it, you must ask the EPA for explicit approval which we can deny for any reason". 2. This is a video about Disney world and cool retroism, why bring politics into it. Not cool.

the one I think the color is amazing. Judging by a lot of new cameras today

Thomas Ennis well the red looks on par with moderate cameras. But other colors looks pretty dull. But with that said it still passed my expectations for that time period

The resolution/quality is nice and crisp, but it is below average for the 1950s. It's a regular 16mm film, it just happens to be well preserved. Most 1950s stuff was on 35 mm, and often has higher detail than even 4K can properly display.

Comparing analog film quality to digital quality...that's funny. Digital has only now started to catch up to the quality of film. This was shot on 16mm film which is effectively 2K resolution, so better than HD, but not quite as good as 4K.

Sound quality is garbage...

rzomg Thing is, most of the people in this clip look 20 years old. So theyre 82 now

Why you gotta hurt me like that

Not necessarily. Many people in the video may still be alive. The employees may be in their 80s. Children 62-72 like rzomg said. These are not uncommon ages to be alive in these days.

Gives me such a pain in my stomach when I think of this

The older people yeah but not almost everyone. Maybe if the video was 20 years older

JoCoBrony why do you say it like you expirienced it lmao

18*

Are you sure about that??? Public segregation, the issue of women’s rights, the Korean war, and a kajillion other social issues... and this is right before the 60’s which marked a huge social revolution and right after WWII!

@@TheJayson8899 That social revolution brought in AIDS, drug use, high crime, sexualization of minors, divorce, open borders, broken families, school shootings, and various other ills. Thank Lefties!
