lord and a federal agent. Stars

29
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:36.879
Johnson. All Right, what happened
on June twenty first, seventeen eighty eight

30
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:39.520
in New Hampshire. They ratified the
US Constitution. They were in the United

31
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:43.800
State to do it, and that's
solid took yep. That made the Constitution

32
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:47.319
now the law of the United States. Eighteen thirty four, Simus McCormick he

33
00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:52.479
invented the reaping machine. So what's
that now? It cut and gathered ripened

34
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:57.639
grain crops. It basically helped launch
the agriculture revolution. Eighteen seventy nine,

35
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:01.680
Frank Wilworth opened up will Worse Great
five store in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. At

36
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:06.599
one time there were over four thousand
Wold Wars Stars. Nineteen ninety seven they

37
00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:08.800
closed the last four hundred stores in
the United States. Now there still our

38
00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:13.840
Woolworst, but they're down in Mexico. Eighteen ninety three, the first ware

39
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:16.039
Ferris wheel began running. It was
at an exhibition in Chicago. It was

40
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:20.280
built by George Ferris. Two hundred
and sixty four feet high. It's a

41
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:23.680
pretty big beck then. Now,
I guess you wouldn't want this girl to

42
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:28.280
be named Big Bertha. It was
nineteen thirteen in Los Angeles. Tiny Broadwick

43
00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:30.879
became the first woman to jump out
by a parachute of an airplane. He

44
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:36.280
had eighteen year old jumped out at
one thousand feet over LA Now she volunteered

45
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:39.479
to do it. Nineteen forty two
it's still the hottest temperature ever recorded in

46
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:44.520
Asia, one hundred and twenty nine
degrees, and he guesses where terret ZeVA

47
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:46.879
Israel? So are you more surprised
by the one hundred and twenty nine degrees

48
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:51.360
or the fact that Israel was in
Asia? Now, if you like Vinyl

49
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.759
records, it was nineteen forty eight
at Columbia Records. Debut that thirty three

50
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:58.080
and the third album that caused US
seventy eights to go out of production.

51
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:00.400
Now, if you've seen the movie
It'll Be in Mississippi Burning, Yeah,

52
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:03.759
you'll know this story because it's based
on it. Nineteen sixty four, three

53
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:08.520
civil rights workers, two white and
one black. They were working to register

54
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:12.479
black citizens in Mississippi to vote Wow
the Klue Clubs plan. They murdered him,

55
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.280
took him forty one years to find
the ring leader the whole thing,

56
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:17.879
and put him in jail. Nineteen
eighty nine, the United States Supreme Court

57
00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:24.879
ruled that burning the American flag for
political expression is legal. In an effort

58
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:30.360
to promote private space planes that could
achieve spaceflight, the X Prize was offered

59
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.199
out roared with ten million dollars.
To get it, you had to have

60
00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:35.839
a privately funded space plane and had
to make two trips into space within fourteen

61
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:40.639
days. Today, in two thousand
and four, Spaceship one made it second

62
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:44.040
flight. YEP, so I was
able to claim the fries claimed all ten

63
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:49.720
million bucks. Cost thirty million dollars
to build Spaceship one. Go coat coat
