They did a 60 Minutes Special on this film and determined that it was made just days before the Great San Francisco Earthquake. They said that many in the film may have only had days to live.

Whoever found it, thanks for sharing. Makes me feel like I'm in a sane society again!!!
World's Fair, Paris in 1900 - Exposition Universelle [Rare Footage]. The note says: "A Human Zoo was present at the exposition." Some sicko idea of "art", I suppose. Otherwise, I liked this cinematic time-travel back before WWI:
Edit to add: "Thomas Edison films from the moving Boardwalk at Paris World Exposition Circa 1900."

"If ever this vast country is brought under a single government, it will be one of the most extensive corruption, indifferent and incapable of a wholesome care over so wide a spread of surface.

He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie.

Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.

Those people were so irresponsible: NO child-proofing visible at all to protect the innocent little waifs-of-the-street from a myriad of life-threatening dangers ranging from random motorists to the street trolleys and horse-drawn buggies/carts. I'm calling Gloria Allred AND Alan Dershowitz.....
