[haroldofcardboard]

just think, queen elizabeth has now been on throne longer than queen victoria

[wexlerchick]

@haroldofcardboard No she hasn't. Victoria reigned for 63 years, 200+ days. Elizabeth so far has reigned 60 years.

it is so way cool that you compied this video, i watched in fascination. thank you for making the effort

[haroldofcardboard]

Yadsik, no, that's not it. In Victorian times it was illegal to walk slowly

Also, the description is wrong, she was 91 (and 3/4)

[4string59]

@haroldofcardboard She was 81. She was born in 1819, and died in 1901.

He clearly says St Pauls. I wonder why that error wasn't spotted and corrected.

[notnek202]

Her funeral took place at St. Georges Chapel (Widsor) not St Paul's.

@NZtenga It just looks that way because they had less frames per second in film back then. It is likely that this was filmed using a hand cranked reel.

People walked pretty fast back in the day.

It's just amazing the thought of knowing that they're commemorating her death and everyone in that video would follow, because by now (110 years later) we could easily say that every person in that video is dead.
