They are among my Youtubers I follow for years now. Actually only since they started their boat cruising a few years ago. Only later did I see they had a "former life" of traveling the US and Canada by RV. Travelling video journalists. This spring they sold their catamaran while in New Zealand and are awaiting a new kind of "green footprint" catamaran later this year.Tiredretiredlawyer wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 10:09 am RTH - the couple cleaning New York waterways was visiting family in ARKANSAS!!!!!
Fun point for me: a few years back I was looking for something about woodworking and tools and Youtube started offering wooden boat building and sailing, also block house building in remote areas, and I got stuck on a number of related channels since then.

Stunning footage of the construction of New York's Empire State Building in color (opened in 1931)
Rick88888888
2 Dec 2021
This film is a compilation of restored, enhanced & colorized film footage involving the construction of the Empire State Building (ESB) in New York nearly a century ago.
It shows how the base of the building is laid, how all parts are produced in nearby steel works, how steel parts are riveted together, the dangers of working at such high construction altitudes and the completion of the ESB.
What many people probably do not know is that the ESB was built on the spot where the famous first version of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel used to be at 5th Avenue (opened in 1897). In 1931 the hotel re-opened in a new location at Park Avenue.
The ESB started with the destruction of the hotel on 22 January 1930, after which the actual construction started on 7 March 1930. It was completed at record speed after only 13.5 months on 11 April 1931 and officially opened on 1 May 1931.
The building was designed in Art-Deco style, is 381 meters high and has 102 floors. Achieving such a height was only possible because of the use of a steel framework.
As an important symbol of New York City, the building has been named as one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers.
The various original B&W footage has been motion-stabilized, speed-corrected, restored, enhanced and colorized with contemporary Artificial Intelligence software.

Very interesting - thanks for sharing that. The US is pretty lucky if the worst sporting disaster in our history had only,, 23 killed, and having it be so long ago.
It made me think of the Hillsborough Disaster of 1989 in Sheffield, England, where 97 were killed and 766 injured. That is the UKs worst sporting disaster.
