Hello everyone, I made an error in converting the height from the imperial system to the metric system. Thank you to all of you who have brought this to my attention. Here are the corrections: 163 cm = 5'4 165 cm = 5'5 168 cm = 5'6 170 cm = 5'7 173 cm = 5'8 175 cm = 5'9
@@noizepusher7594 The show can be that they somehow got sent to present day America and now they have to adjust to modern life. The jokes practically write themselves. I can total see an episode where the Republican and Democrat presidential candidates are trying to out do each other in serving George Washington (who will get progressively more and more annoyed with each attempt) so they can get his endorsement for the upcoming election. And it can culminate in him publicly denouncing both candidates and the whole party system and then him endorsing some independent party candidate (and said independent ends up winning). There can also be some serious episodes, like Alexander Hamilton or John Adams addressing a crowd of BLM about to face off against some random anti-BLM group. And he then successfully diffuses the situation. And maybe have an episode where Thomas Jefferson declares war on the federal reserve, only to have Hamilton come up and try to stop him. They end up fighting and both get arrested and Washington has to bail them out. Or maybe another episode when they learn about the Civil War (their worst fears made manifest) and how there are still scars that haven’t healed right to this day. Followed by an episode where Ben Franklin buys out OnlyFans and starts making a killing.
I think he would be pretty happy with that. It wasn’t like they founded America because they hated Britain, but rather believed that parliament (and the king by proxy) was denying them their rights as Englishmen. To learn that the animosities resulting from the revolution would be put aside and they could walk together as allies, that was be a merry day indeed.
@Mialisus "Laws are not reversible." Try telling that to prohibitionists that witnessed Congress passing the 21st amendment. Culture is relative and the moral/lawful code of the 23rd century will be related (perhaps), but also quite different.
Random Guy Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton were both members of George Washington’s cabinet. Jefferson was the first Secretary of State and Hamilton was the first Secretary of Treasury, and used his time in office to develop the financial system America still uses today. They disagreed on just about *every* issue of the time (especially American finances) and pretty much hated each other’s guts. Despite this, Hamilton endorsed Jefferson’s campaign for presidency over Aaron Burr, who would later kill Hamilton in a duel. During his presidency, Jefferson tried and failed to reform the American financial system Hamilton created. The bit about Jefferson immediately punching Hamilton was more or less a joke about their intense rivalry.
Of all the founders I do believe Thomas Jefferson would adjust quickly. He was wide and deeply read, experimented in agriculture and open to new ideas. Following up on him would be Benjamin Franklin.
Washington: "I TOLD YOU GUYS, NO POLITICAL PARTIES!" Hamilton: "Can someone tell me what this 'musical' thing is?" Jefferson: "The slaves are what now?" Benjamin: "Haha Washington, they didn't even build a statue for you" John: *Screams in terror*
Jefferson originally talked shit about slavery in the deceleration of independence but they had to take it out because they feared the south wouldn’t agree and they didn’t want to start a argument.
Benjamin Franklin made so many quotes because of a type of writting that was popular back then. I'm not sure what it was called, but he made a good living from it. The internet isn't always the best source for this information.
Two jobs. He also advised Americans to avoid "entangling alliances" Though this was motivated by desire to prevent us from being manipulated and controlled by stronger European powers. By the time we formed such alliances, we were the ones doing the controlling. They might not be as concerned by alliances as the large standing army, given standing armies classic association with military takeovers. Or perhaps they (Washington in particular) would see the fervency of military officers support for civilian control and their avoidance of involvement in politics while in uniform and feel confident that they hd done well on this issue.
Great job, loved it. My Grandfather was born in 1884 and lived to be in his mid 90's and would tell stories about his old Civil War buddies he worked in the coal mines with. I was in my mid 30's when he died. See, your right, just a few generations ago.
Some of the founding fathers living to see the 1810's so they might not be as shocked as you'd think, neoclassical sleeveless gowns were pretty common for women at that time. However seeing everyone in gym shorts and t-shirts would be shocking.
Then he goes back to his friends "guys guys women here are so easy. You dont need to marry them. And they think that sleeping with you on second date instead of first date dont make them a slouth 😂😂 its paradise 😂
Hamilton: please u know who i am Broadway casting director: but you just don’t fit perfectly in the movie 4 others: we’re here! Broadway casting director: fine, i’ll change to about u guys. Edit: Thx for the likes
@@yourmother3126 Since Alexander has been known as a self-loving person/bordering on Narcissist, I doubt he would care. Regardless of the racism of his time, he was engaged in homosexual behavior with John Laurens, so I think he would be more accepting than most. He didn’t own slaves and hated slavery in private. His mother owned slaves, and after her death, even though his mother had written in her will that Alexander be given one boy named Ajax, Alex was denied this because of his illegitimate birth. He loathed talking about slavery to ANYONE, even George Washington, who owned more than 100 slaves. As a young man starting out his political career, he published his first major political essay, “A full Vindication of the measures of the Congress,” which drew direct comparisons between enslaved people and colonists oppressed by the British. And in 1779, he championed a plan proposed by his friend John Laurens to arm and enlist enslaved people in the Continental Army-and reward them with their freedom in return. (Washington himself had opposed the idea until the British dangled just such a lure.) “The dictates of humanity and true policy equally interest me in favor of this unfortunate class of men,” Hamilton wrote in an appeal on behalf of Laurens to the Continental Congress. “I have not the least doubt, that the negroes will make very excellent soldiers, with proper management,” Hamilton continued, adding that “their natural faculties are probably as good as ours.” His lobbying, however, failed to win support, and Laurens' plan was sadly abandoned.
I think what's incredibly interesting is how fast literacy increased in the US. We're at roughly 99%, but by the 1850s it was already at roughly 90%. It increased here earlier than basically everywhere else in the world, even Britain.
@@dogguy8603 He wrote like 51 pages out of the 85 federalists papers. What did Benjamin franklin ever do? He was just an *ss who took credit for electricity when he really didn't.
@@dogguy8603 well actually the washington thing is true but it wasnt something he fored slaves to do, he payed a big quantity of money for one teeth if the slave wanted to, then wahishingtono make a protesis of teeth for himself cause he had aomething in his teeths and all, it was weird, but not wrong
This is one of those things that I'd love to see a movie about, no lie. It could be a serious drama about these men coming to terms with the progress and faults of the country they created, or a comedy, (or a bit of both).
@@cupio-stardust :D I love that movie! It's so funny and terrifying too! And there's a Mussolini version (Sono tornato) which sucks and copies Er ist wieder da hard... eh.
Great idea, it makes you wonder why nobody in Hollywood hasn't thought of this?? Or someone is suppressing it.. you could get away with a comedy about it. Or you would think..
@@aa-mb6rs It could also be because Hamilton was the protagonist of the musical, and people tend to forget their literature lessons. Mainly the one that states "just because the main character is the protagonist, it does NOT automatically make them the 'hero' of the story." People completely forget that a) Things like villain and anti-hero protagonists exist, and b) Just because you like a work doesn't mean you have to agree with the main character's actions, even if they are unquestionably the "hero" and are meant to be seen as "right." From freaking Thanos in Infinity War, to another manga work I'm reading now (can't get into details because of spoilers), it's constantly idiots who sleep through their lessons going "hurr durr, they're the main character, so they must be the hero and therefore right!"🤦♀️
Jake Roberts Lin Manuel read Hamilton’s autobiography and thought that he was ‘gangster’ in how he got his business done and how he conducted himself. The other founding fathers were cleaner than Alexander Hamilton so he was specifically chosen for his ‘dirty’ tactics. Hence why the show is predominately gangster rap.
Them: Wait. Two? Me: Don't worry, we won both. Them: Then why was there a second? Me: Don't worry, we solved that problem. I mean, there wasn't a third. Yet... Them: Yet? Me: Well we've developed a weapon to unleash the fiery depths of hell upon entire cities from the other side of the world. So we decided that war would mean the end of the world. Them: So no more wars? Good. Me: Quite the opposite. Now most wars are about people who might have these weapons and making sure they can't get them. Them: Oh no.
@Malcolm Hoth well, speaking in terms of law and that slaves weren't considered people they were considered property. Property doesn't reserve the right to consent????
One of the founding fathers had a vision about the future of America, he wrote in his journal Somthing about having a Birds Eye view and seeing large city light’s throughout the land as far as he could see, he wrote some other stuff but I don’t remember what it was about
You'll be a pedophile in a few decades, lol. Lots of people support raising the age of adulthood to 18, it only worsens the problem for future generations, instead of raising more mature children.
"I say, Mr. Adams, I believe I was just insulted!!" "How do you mean, General Washington?" "A young rapscallion accused me of masquerading as a canine!!!" "Truly slanderous indeed! What exactly did they say?" "If I recall, his exact words were, 'Yo, nice costume, dog.'"
I think it's weird to ship real life people. There's nothing weird if they're fictional, but these are people with feelings, I'd feel so uncomfortable.
@@SM-qv2om yeah it is. But since they’ve been dead for ~200 years, it feels like we’re not bothering anyone. Also, Hamilton fans tend to disassociate the real Founding Fathers, so yeah. But shipping real people that *recently* died, or (even worse) *are still alive,* is downright creepy.
I do not ship real people bit more the idea / character of one's life like septiplier i don't ship Sean and mark i ship the idea of Sean and mark or lamms
the idea of Ben Franklin crying "Witchcraft!" at the sight of a phone is quite ironic considering Benjamin considered such things superstitious nonsense and even wrote a satire of witch hunting. Though to be fair being transported centuries into the future would probably change ones views on such things...
Franklin and Jefferson would not proclaim that technology is witchcraft. These two were extremely curious about science and its practical uses, and would likely be amazed by but not terrified of inventions born of science. They wouldn't understand smart phones (since they didn't dream of Maxwell's theories, let alone Schrodinger, Einstein, and Turing - but do most people using smart phones understand the contributions of these scientists?), but they would probably perceive the hand of science and reason in its creation.
They would spend some time being amazed, and wondering at the miraculous things that must be achieved when every person in the country down to even the most impoverished has free access to the collective knowledge of all mankind. Then they would actually look at the internet, and rapidly meet reality.
@TC Fenstermaker There are still deists today, deism is not agnosticism, agnostics say they don't know if god exists, deists affirm God exists but say religions are false and do not actually represent God. That is a very big difference.
Yeah, it would all be well unless he goes to a state like Virginia or Mississippi where there's a good chance that he will get himself lynched by the neo-confederates
Man, I loved this video. And I mean not just the content, but the style and the pacing. Serious talks interrupted by pauses for comic relief. Yes, it's long and it could have been much more packed and ”efficient”, but in a way I don't want that. I like to take my time and process everything you say, even though that means that I won't be able to watch the whole video in one take. Great job! Keep it up.
He'd leave at mid act 2 to go find Lin to challenge him to a duel, then some bonding will occur and Lin will somehow convince him to go watch the whole play and Alexander will cry at the end
Imagine showing them the military channel, for the technology alone let alone the commentary. And on so many levels. The A-10 Warthog and F22 Raptor must seem like metal dragons to them. Giant, fast, metallic vehicles armed with cannons that can fire, reload, and swivel within seconds. A technological marvel even for many countries today, let alone them. And the commentary. Learning that the US is widely regarded as the premier power in the world today, and that the stakes for all out war between major powers means almost all wars today aren't even fought between them, but against rebels not even in our own country. Then there is the whole gung-ho delivery that I think would frighten Washington as much as it excited him.
Washington: and its called a drone? FoL: yes general, we used them to successfully game the Irani radar network, during the US Iraq war. Washington: was that the war in the desert? FoL: which one?
Considering how cats were seen as gods in ancient Egypt I wouldn't be surprised to believe that TJ thought the black guy was an Egyptian. If he knew about Egypt in the first place that is.
@@jamiesorenson8761 dude I know that. What I am saying is that he must've thought that the black guy was an Egyptian because in ancient Egypt cats were seen as gods causing Egyptians to be their slaves. Which is why he would've thought that the black was the slave of the cat rather than being it's owner because of you know what. Sorry I wrote such a long paragraph I just don't like it when someone doesn't get a joke and ruins the whole vibe. Sorry lol.
If Hamilton saw Hamilton, he wouldn’t have died just yet, and since he saw the play, would he be scared to die and prepare to prevent it? Would the play change? Would he have actually seen the changed version, seeing himself not die like he did, and revert the change of the play happening? Thus a cycle forms? And a Schrödinger’s cat situation? This hurts my brain.
The freedom of African Americans would surprise Jefferson, and the big bank would amaze Hamilton. But Washington wouldn't probably like the two party system. Benjamin Franklin would be intrigued at the founding of electricity and when he is told he made it, he would be very happy. Adam's interests aren't well known, but I think as a false loyalist and he actually met King George and wanted to see America allied with Britain. So his dream came true and he could be overjoyed. Still the horrific acts of people in this century might leave a ill wound on the minds of the founding fathers.
I disagree I think jefferson foresaw thr freeing of the slaves eventually so I doubt he would be surprised over 200 years later it happened because of the foundations they laid in place for it to happen
why would jefferson be surprised by freedom for African Americans? His personal hypocricy aside, he clearly saw slavery as an evil thing (see: his attempt to ban it in Virginia, his succesful bans on the institution in the NW territories); his error was believing it would die a slow death from incrementalism rather than its entrenchment through the explosion of the cotton plantation industry.
Well, Tokugawa would probably be horrified that Japan had been occupied by a foreign power and forced to renounce its military. He'd also probably be shocked that Christianity was legal in modern Japan, though relieved that it remains a small minority. The warlords would be perplexed at the existence of democracy, even given the knowledge that it was imposed by a foreign power. I have no idea what they would think of popular culture, aside from a general disdain for foreign influence.
As aghast as they'd be over foreign influences exerted on Japan throughout history, I wonder if they'd feel at least a little pride at seeing how Japan has projected immense influence back on the world. Scientifically, economically, culturally, and politically to varying extents, Japan is a regional powerhouse and not to be underestimated on the global scale either. Perhaps enough to earn some approval from even the stanch isolationists of their time?
Shoguns and Samurais visit Modern Japan? Conquistadors visit Modern Mexico? Caliphs visit Modern Day Middle East? Persian Shahs visit Modern Day Iran? The possibilities are endless!
How the Aztec Emperors would view Modern day Mexico City How Ancient Egyptian Pharaohs would view Modern Egypt How Ancient Greeks would view modern Greece How Ancient Chinese Emperors would view modern day China How the Ancient Babylonians and Assyrians would view modern Syria and Iraq
These men were quite insightful. After the constitution was approved Benjamin Franklin was asked what kind of government had been adopted. According to the story he said "a republic if you can keep it". They recognized how important it was to limit the power and scope of the federal government. The importance of human rights coming from God, not government, as laid out in the Bill of Rights. We see our government taking away our rights. We see our government growing way beyond the enumerated powers of the constitution. They would recognize our country falling into tyranny and they would not be silent.
Whatever kind of rule it is YOU want, I’m certain they’d be looking for something far better. Quit imprinting your values based on the words of a bunch of dead guys from a time you cannot even conceive. And don’t forget that their actions too were a product of their times. It is only reasonable to view the present circumstances and judge them according to the present, and my judgement is that those you almost certainly place faith in are just as corrupt and immoral as those you oppose.
Not insightful enough to end slavery. They literally had the perfect opportunity while forming the country. They instead decided to expand what the British had started.
"If freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." George Washington - (the first President of the United states of America.)
So pretty much, Washington wouldn't even recognize America. Not just by sight of the development of industrial technology, but the actions of the people.
@E Fig In the event this isn't a joke: Don't see you killing no one. And he would would talk things through first. Beyond that he would be quite happy with the state of things.
@E Fig he probably would. I'm sure most of, if not all, would be super disappointed. I mean, one of our political parties openly hates America, and the other is always arguing within their framework, an obvious losing battle.
I'd've loved to be in the Facebook content moderation room while they debated how to go about Hamilton's duel challenge. Also, thank you for acknowledging Washington's partying skills.
Washington: Uhh... are you dancing? Alexander: Yeah Washington; To what? There's no music. Alexander: This machine allows me to listen to music while making it mute to all else. *Shows earphones and phone* Washington: Hmm, may i give the musician a try? Alexander: Here Washington: Wait.. *My name is Alexander Hamilton, and theres a million things i haven't done* Washington: YOUR A MUSICIAN!?!
"This song gives me joy with its upbeat sounds. Who or what is it about?" "Oh, this is King George's song - You'll be back." "..." "..." "I hate that song."
Might go something like this: “Whoa, this is WAYY better than a musket!” “You pay WHAT in taxes?” “Wait, you’re telling me you can press a few buttons, and anything you want will be magically delivered to your house?”
Madison's reaction to the standing army would be interesting, as well as his reaction to the notion that this is necessary because they have to be ready to go to war on a few minutes' notice.
Hundred years ago $1 ment something. Compared to the price of a cow to day or beef vs venison an entire buck was $1, in in an old book a breakfast was around 15cents or so.
@Bardenbella120 "Lin..." "Oh my broadway wtf-" "Lin,you read my bio right?" "Who tf are you?". "Hamilton,Lin. You liked the bio right?" "Yeah..." "Do a musical Lin or else i'll throw away your ankles" "K"
They all walk down Broadway, and stop when they see a familiar name. Washington is mildly annoyed that King George's songs are so fire. Jefferson and Hamilton chuckle to each other as "the room where it happened" is sung. Adams is annoyed at only getting name dropped, whilst Franklin is disappointed that the only allusion to him is a song referring to that one time he went to fly a kite...
George Washington: Can’t wait to visit all 13 states Fire of Learning: Actually Mr. President, there 50 states now, there’s one even named after you... George Washington: 😮😮😮
He never even got to see the CITY named after him, though he did lay the cornerstone of the Capitol, so he was basically a visitor to a giant construction site.
I mean considering it was suggested he become king, he probably wouldn't be surprised. Probably annoyed that he was made into a personality cult though.
I bet his face will be real happy when he finds out Washington is one of the worse places in America with riot after riot and washington dc not even helping, dont think most men back even cared about something being named after them anyways.
@Hoàng Nguyên I don't know about Washington specifically, but a lot of early presidents and founding fathers had no qualms about conquering native land. Although treaty violation would definately be more of an issue.
Considering the Founding Fathers were pretty progressive by their time, they will probably be impressed on how technologically advanced the United States have become. (Remember they came from a time when getting a small cut is potentially lethal) They will also be surprised that the USA became (one of ) the most powerful nations on the planet while Europe became less relevant in the world stage(when it was practically the reverse during their time) though some will dread the fact America became the very world dominating empire they fought against. They'll somewhat be proud about how Modern American society kept most of the tenets of the values and traditions they layed out 300 years ago. Though they will be shocked at our modern culture and habits
Ok lets talk about my main man jefferson he had hamilton like relations with a 13 year old black girl he inherited his slaves not buying or breeding them and in the original draft of the doi he condemned slavery which he took out to not offend the southern states and thats why I hate to see his statue taken down don't hate someone for a single reason look past them so jefferson was an odd case
I like how while everyone else is going through a mental breakdown and running everywhere Jefferson and Hamilton are wrestling each other and haven’t moved more than a few feet from where they appeared
41:58 "It's quite unlikely that we will ever be visited by historical figures who have been propelled into the modern world." I'm just here waiting for the comments to say, *"This aged poorly".*
Founding Father: challenges someone to a duel, arrives to the site with his sword Modern American: accepts challenge to a duel, arrives with his/her Yu-Gi-Oh! Deck
They would be horrified that we did it, but probably would be willing to forgive it because we did end up liberating it and gave them their independence as promised before WWII.
