  • What about the Civil War?

  • First sentence in the description: "Montage of significant events in modern history CAPTURED ON FILM."

    Send me some clips of the civil war, I'd be glad to insert them into the video.

  • music didnt match for some parts. it sounded like 9/11 was good with that music

  • you could have Yakety Sax as the backdrop to 9/11, and unless there is something wrong with you the tragedy of the situation is still going come through loud and clear.

  • @ArchieAA Actually, thats really not true. Music adds context. Adding "Yakety Sax" to an event such as that would be so incredibly disrespectful. Don't be so naive.

  • @SilencerLX Yeah I know it would be... I was exaggerating to make the point that I don't feel that this music creates that feeling.

  • WORST IN AMERICAN HISTORY - THE AMERICAN DEBT CRISIS RIGHT NOW. BEST IN AMERICAN HISTORY - WHEN THEY ENTERED WWI AND HELPED THE ALLIES BEAT THE SHIT OUTTA THE GERMANS!

  • The worst thing that happened in America was Pres. Bush being elected.

    Twice.

  • best of america and there was hitler?

  • HEY WE DIDN'T WANT TO FIGHT IN WW2 BUT WE HAD TO WHEN JAPAN ATTACKED US AT PEARL HARBOR.

  • @JREwingofDallasTexas i kinda have a habit of smoking a lot of weed and then going on youtube to entertain myself. or i did 2 years ago when i posted that comment.

  • @nextbestrockstar I'm a big fan of the states, as you can probably tell from my name but it is ignorant fools like you that make the rest of the world believe that America is exclusively populated with obese, inbred, retards. Please enlighten me as to the 3 times that america has saved the world, because despite my 4 years living in Houston, and extensive knowledge of American History I cannot fathom what you are talking about.

  • very nice, but you should have gone back further & added pictures of pre-film american history, like the american revolution & civil war, among other things

    but still, this is very nice, i think this is the only american history monatge video on youtbe

  • I just see a bunch of political BS.

  • I like your video, but i have a bone to pick with you.

    Even doe the fall of the Berlin wall symbolizes the end of the cold war, your editing indicates that the fall of the Berlin wall was an american achievement. thats not true.

    The Reagan speech was made in 87 without any factual consequences. The wall felt in 89 by hands of the population itself that the germans call "the peaceful revolution" and are very proud of.

    Communism felt by himself, that's not america's credit.
