17
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:07.840
in the world on June the seventeenth. A lot of people do not realize

18
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:10.759
that in India the taj Mahal is
a mausoleum. Yeah, I wasn't built

19
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:15.800
as a tourist attraction today. In
sixteen thirty one, Mom Tazmohal, she

20
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:20.080
died while giving birth to their fourteenth
child. Her husband, the Mugo Emperor

21
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:23.479
Shah Johan. He ordered the great
mausoleum be built in his wife's honor.

22
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:27.840
Took around twenty thousand workers almost twenty
years to build the Well, it's her

23
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.159
tomb, the taj Mahall don't fire. You see the whites of their eyes?

24
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:35.879
Well, that line became famous today. In seventeen seventy five, in

25
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:38.919
the American Revolution, at the Battle
of Bunker Hill, was fighting near Boston,

26
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:44.039
Massachusetts to day now. The colonial
soldiers they did put up a pretty

27
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.120
good fight, but they were way
out numbered by the British and men and

28
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:52.520
weapons. The British did for a
lot more casualties, but they ultimately did

29
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:54.719
win the battle. Now, that
famous Battle of Bunker Hill was actually fight

30
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:59.800
in Breeze Hill. Eighteen thirty seven. Charles Goodyear, he received the first

31
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:04.719

Republican Party. Oh, this first national

32
00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:10.759
convention in Philadelphia. Oh, and
so it was the chapel Land gone again

33
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:24.719
until the chapel gone again. Eighteen
seventy one, Anna Swan she married Martin

34
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:30.479
Bates. Now Anna she stood seven
feet eleven inches tall. Martin he stood

35
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:35.439
seven feet nine inches tall. They
are still the tallest married couple. Nineteen

36
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:38.800
oh one, colleges they started using
the first standardized testing for admission into all

37
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:45.000
colleges and universities. Those tests be
game here SATs. In France. In

38
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:50.080
nineteen thirty nine, they held their
last public guillotining. Yeah, the convicted

39
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:53.520

got the honor. But it was the

40
00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:58.240
last public guillotine. They still guillotine. The last person actually guilotine was nineteen

41
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:02.759
seventy seven eineteen sixty three, the
United States Supreme Court rolled agains reading the

42
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:09.400

nineteen ninety four on National Live TV,

43
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:13.879
the Los Angeles Police they chased a
white Ford bronco of oh oh J Simpson.

44
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:16.480
Yeah, he didn't turn himself in
to face murder charges for killing his

45
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:19.519
ex wife. Now, the chase, it lasted an hour and a half,

46
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:23.879
that Ojay. Once he got home, he stopped and the police were

47
00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:26.199
able to arrest him there. Now, if you're too young to remember,

48
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:29.160
it wasn't the highest speed chase.
But back then we didn't have as many

49
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:31.240
