Most of the footage that will be posted (later on) won't have audio. So If you like listen to Accuradio, it's free and a great source for anti-Top 40 music lovers.
It may ask for an email address, do so ....it's worth it.

RANDOM CLIPS
1) 450' Building in New York City
Three jumpers take turns leaping from the roof of a 450' building in downtown Manhattan in New York City. Camera angles include helmet-cameras facing forward and backward, from the roof top, and from a window in the building near where the canopies opened. The entire sequence from gaining roof access to the post-jump celebration is captured on video in this rare New York City BASE jump.

HISTORICAL FOOTAGE
1) From a contemporary Edison film company catalog: ELECTROCUTION OF CZOLGOSZ (http://mediastudies.cua.edu/faculty_sites/gitelman/video/executionczolgosz.mpeg) . Unhonored. [code for telegraphic orders]. A detailed reproduction of the execution of the assassin of President McKinley faithfully carried out from the description of an eye witness. The picture is in three scenes. First: Panoramic view of Auburn Prison taken the morning of the electrocution. The picture then dissolves into the corridor of murderer's row. The keepers are seen taking Czolgosz from his cell to the death chamber, and shows State Electrician, Wardens and Doctors making final test of the chair. Czolgosz is then brought in by the guard and is quickly strapped into the chair. The current is turned on at a signal from the Warden, and the assassin heaves heavily as though the straps would break. He drops prone after the current is turned off. The doctors examine the body and report to the Warden that he is dead, and he in turn officially announces the death to the witness. Class B 200 ft. $24.00
2) From a contemporary Edison film company catalog: WHAT HAPPENED ON 23d STREET, NEW YORK CITY. (http://mediastudies.cua.edu/faculty_sites/gitelman/video/tunnel.mpeg) Unbarbour [code for telegraphic orders]. This is a winner and sure to please. The scene as suggested by the title is made on 23d street, New York City. In front of one of the large newspaper offices on that thoroughfare is a hot air shaft through which immense volumes of air is forced by means of a blower. Ladies crossing these shafts often have their clothes slightly disarranged, (it may be said much to their discomfiture). As our picture was being made a young man escorting a young lady, to whom he was talking very earnestly, comes into view and walks slowly along until they stand directly over the air shaft. The young lady's skirts are suddenly raised to, you might say an almost unreasonable height, greatly to her horror and much to the amusement of the newsboys, bootblacks and passersby. This subject is a winner. Class B. 50 ft. $6.00

HISTORICAL FOOTAGE
1) From a contemporary Edison film company catalog: ELECTROCUTION OF CZOLGOSZ (http://mediastudies.cua.edu/faculty_sites/gitelman/video/executionczolgosz.mpeg) . Unhonored. [code for telegraphic orders]. A detailed reproduction of the execution of the assassin of President McKinley faithfully carried out from the description of an eye witness. The picture is in three scenes. First: Panoramic view of Auburn Prison taken the morning of the electrocution. The picture then dissolves into the corridor of murderer's row. The keepers are seen taking Czolgosz from his cell to the death chamber, and shows State Electrician, Wardens and Doctors making final test of the chair. Czolgosz is then brought in by the guard and is quickly strapped into the chair. The current is turned on at a signal from the Warden, and the assassin heaves heavily as though the straps would break. He drops prone after the current is turned off. The doctors examine the body and report to the Warden that he is dead, and he in turn officially announces the death to the witness. Class B 200 ft. $24.00
2) From a contemporary Edison film company catalog: WHAT HAPPENED ON 23d STREET, NEW YORK CITY. (http://mediastudies.cua.edu/faculty_sites/gitelman/video/tunnel.mpeg) Unbarbour [code for telegraphic orders]. This is a winner and sure to please. The scene as suggested by the title is made on 23d street, New York City. In front of one of the large newspaper offices on that thoroughfare is a hot air shaft through which immense volumes of air is forced by means of a blower. Ladies crossing these shafts often have their clothes slightly disarranged, (it may be said much to their discomfiture). As our picture was being made a young man escorting a young lady, to whom he was talking very earnestly, comes into view and walks slowly along until they stand directly over the air shaft. The young lady's skirts are suddenly raised to, you might say an almost unreasonable height, greatly to her horror and much to the amusement of the newsboys, bootblacks and passersby. This subject is a winner. Class B. 50 ft. $6.00
