this is why it's so important to take videos, even of seemingly meaningless things like a subway ride because watching this is like stepping into a time machine
-
That kid: "It's just a subway, nobody cares if I'm shirtless" 30 yrs later 4 million people:👀👀
-
This footage from 1987 is still better quality than most CCTV cameras today.
-
This footage is a valuable piece of history.
-
Shirtless guy is probably immune to everything at this point in life
-
No cell phones... apparently they used spray paint to communicate back then
-
My dad was born and raised in NY. These videos describe NY exactly how my dad said it was during the 70’s and 80’s. ❤
-
This is a piece of history right here. Nothing short of a masterpiece. Nothing too special just a moment in time captured.
-
The guy who “thought” of recording this trip is surely a time traveller
-
a person coming onto this train from japan would have a heart attack
-
i love how VHS renditions try to be as low quality as it can be but when i look at VHS from the actual era, they seem pristine and recognizable
-
i just wish there was more lol.. every time the video ends i'm feeling like there should be more! i love how he recorded so many things its like he knew people were going to want to watch all of it. thank you nelson rip bud
-
Safe to say whoever that shirtless boy is now.. he is definitely immune from the coronavirus
-
And amusing to remember that the guy filming was walking around with a 5 pound plastic box the size of a loaf of bread on his shoulder the whole time.
-
I am from Brooklyn and rode this train every single day! What a flashback! 😊
-
Lol NYC was so fckin dirty in the 70’s and 80’s and we just accepted it.
-
This could be 1987, or the year 3000 post-nuclear war.
-
It looks so surrealistic, like a movie from a dystopian future/past
-
I recognize that movie theater at 4:25. It's a Marshalls store now! People used to always tell me it used to be a theater. But seeing it...wow....

My heart is literally aching with joy! I made this trek from Queens from 1980 to 1987. The fun we had! Far Rockaway and Coney Island were the places to be! Great video! By the way, several things I love about this video.... First, this looks like such a fun NY group of kids! Mostly, I love that no one is on a damn cellphone. They are connected to each other and not to a damn phone!
