Another typical bizarre 70's Sesame Street film. It's funny with great music. A very funny way of filming too. The man jumps in circles and they only keep the frames when he is in the air. The old "Levis" commercials from 1972 used to do that too. Levis haw haw, we wew wee.. Anybody remember that one?

  • I LUV this! Especially the harpsichord!

    This is def classic, when they actually hired people to clean parks that way!

    They would always show this in 3 parts, the first then break to something then go back, so forth!

    THANX :D

  • That's right! This was divided in three parts with cartoons in between. I just cut all the segments out and joined all the films clips together.

  • This segment always cracked me up. A primer course on pixilation. They must've had the guy up in a harness for HOURS while they photographed each individual frame (probably with a Bolex camera). That section of Riverside Park in Manhattan looks almost exactly the same today as it did back then. Peace.

  • You are sure this is Riverside Park in Manhattan? How are you so sure? I actualy don't think they needed a harness for this guy. They just took a photo once every three seconds or so and he "jumped" a bunch of times in a row for a bunch of consecutive shots. That is how he floats in the air with his legs bent up.

  • Yes, we need more people like this girl-- grossed out by litter, AND does away with it. Too many people now are wussy wimps who just let litter sit there because they're too wimpy to get their poor little hands icky! We humans are going downhill.

  • I wonder how many people under 30 today know what stop motion film or reverse film is. This is FAR better than all this digital, 3-D, High Definition, stereo, or suround sound stuff. I miss this stuff.

  • I wish I knew who these 3 people were. I'd like to see what they look like today! :)

  • Inmate trash pickup program in progress here.  They let the first guy out of Bellevue.

  • Mr. Yuk came into being around 1972, and I'd wager the girl's reaction was influenced by Mr. Yuk - her tongue hanging out and all.

  • I LOVE IT WHEN THE GIRL SAYS YUCK YUCK

  • That little girl put it so perfectly. Ich and Blech are right. If we all cleaned up the streets and/or parks, we'd have trash up to the sky!

  • nice

  • There's one guy that really likes his job! :) I love the SAcottish music that follows him everywhere.

    Uh...dope, you're SITTING ON A TRASH CAN and you still drop the paper on the ground?!

    That little girl is cute as a button! I love her adorable 'Yeech!'

  • @CanadaFamilyMan Hey i pick up at least two trash bags worth every week!
