sixth Now we've talked about Man Tambora
in the Indonesia erupting. Yeah, well,

32
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:40.439
the cause what we called the year
without a Summer. There's proof today

33
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:46.240
it was eighteen sixteen ten inches of
snow fell all across New England. Eighteen

34
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:50.319
forty four in London, England,
George Williams he formed the Young Men's Christian

35
00:02:50.360 --> 00:03:05.479
Association or the Ymcade. What do
you think of Georgia? Think about his

36
00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:09.439
Christian Association being celebrated by the village. People probably think it takes a village.

37
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:15.240
Eighteen eighty two in New York Kerry
Steely he invented the electric iron.

38
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:19.199
Now it weighed fifteen pounds and took
a half hour to warm up. Nineteen

39
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:23.199
twelve in Alaska, nov Rupta volcano. It started erupting today. Now it

40
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:28.000
erupted for three days. The eruption
it was thirty times bigger than sound ay

41
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:30.639
Lowonds. Yeah, Noverrupta. It
was the largest volcanic eruption in the entire

42
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:37.280
twentieth century. The Revenue Act of
nineteen thirty two was enacted today in nineteen

43
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:39.759
thirty two. Now it created the
United States first gas tax. They were

44
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:43.759
at one cent per gallon. People
got around it, though, so they

45
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.360
had to put an amendment on it, so the New Revenue Act of nineteen

46
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:51.280
thirty two read it was one cent
per gallon or one fourth of a cent

47
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:55.439
per leader. Nineteen forty four,
it was D Day the Normandy landings took

48
00:03:55.479 --> 00:04:00.080
place. It's the largest amphibious landing
in history. One hundred and sixty one

49
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:03.159
thousand Allied soldiers stormed the beaches of
Normandy. Forty five hundred of the men

50
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:06.520
were killed and over five thousand were
wounded. In that first twenty four hours,

51
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:11.439
five beaches were landed on Britain,
United States, and Canada all hit

52
00:04:11.479 --> 00:04:14.919
them. United States we got Omaha
in Utah, which actually had the hardest

53
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:18.560
resistance so meant for the toughest fighting. Then Britain they landed on Golden Sward.

54
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:24.040
Canada they got Junio. So what
does D Day stand for? Well,

55
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:27.000
nothing, say, it was just
a working title. They said they

56
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.199
were gonna launch on D Day and
then they would fill in that D Day

57
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:31.600
was later. Oh, they never
filled it in, so it's still D

58
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:36.600
Day. Now. This would actually
be huge now, except I think you'd

59
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:40.959
have way too many contestants to be
able to do it. In nineteen forty

60
00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:45.879
nine CBS they debuted the game show
It Pays to Be Ignorant. Nineteen seventy

61
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:48.480
two gold it hit an all time
high. It was selling for sixty dollars.

62
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:51.519
Announce. Yeah today, I just
looked at this almost twenty four hundred

63
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:56.399
dollars announce. Nineteen eighty four,
Soviet Union, they started playing the video

64
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:59.560
game Tetris. Yeah, I won't
come to the United States until nineteen eighty

65
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:02.240
eight. In nineteen ninety nine,
over in Brazil, at the Putnam Max

66
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:06.920
Security maximum security prison, they had
the largest prison break in Brazil's history,

67
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.079
or three hundred and forty five prisoners
made a break for the gate. Now

68
00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:14.639
as the guards are trying to round
them all up, two of the prisoners

69
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:18.079
were shot and killed. Five innocent
bystanders were actually thrown into jail. Twenty

70
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:21.120
eighteen, over in France, a
man won their lottery for the second time

71
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:27.839
in two years. The odds were
doing it. One and sixteen trillion cot

74
00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:41.879
and you know we don't get use
that's the birthday. Who was born

75
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:46.199
on June the sixth, US patriot
Nathan Hale. He was born in Coventry,

76
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:49.120
Connecticut, in seventeen fifty five.
Seventeen seventy three, at eighteen years

77
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:53.120
old, he graduated first in his
class from Yale. Then he enjoyed the

78
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:57.319
Connecticut and militia to fight in the
Revolutionary War. Seventeen seventy six, he

79
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.399
volunteered to be a spy. Now
George washer and personally told him if you

80
00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:03.839
do this and you get caught,
you will be hung. Hal said,

81
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:06.279
oh, that's cool. So he
went to New York City and started sending

82
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:11.240
back intelligence and the British didn't catch
him. Now the British actually wrote it

83
00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:14.319
down. They said that his last
words before they hung him, I only

84
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:16.000
regret that I have but one life
to get for my country. He was

85
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:42.199
twenty one years old. That was
Levi Stubbs singing lead for the four four

86
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:45.639
Tops. Now Levi was born in
Detroit in nineteen thirty six. Now he

87
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:47.759
and three of his buddies they formed
the Four Tops in nineteen fifty three.

88
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:53.680
Now those four they remained together from
nineteen fifty three to nineteen ninety seven before

89
00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:57.560
they made any changes to the group
sold over fifty million records on the Rock

90
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:00.199
and Roll Hall of Fame. Some
of their biggest hits are I Can't Out

91
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:03.439
Myself. It's the same old song
reach out, I'll be there Baby,

92
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:06.680
I Need your eleven. Levi had
to retire in two thousand because of health

93
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:10.920
dishes. Two of the original four
tops they're still performing, so I guess

94
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:15.199
with two new talks Levi. He
married nineteen sixty and they had five children.

95
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:16.879

as Gary US Bonds now his record company.

98
00:07:45.160 --> 00:07:47.600
They picked the name us Bonds.
Yeah. They thought it sounded like

99
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:50.800
a public service announcement, so they
thought it would get the DJ's attention.

100
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:55.399
Well it worked. He was born
in Jacksonville, Florida, in nineteen thirty

101
00:07:55.480 --> 00:07:58.480
nine. He's eighty five today,
still performing. He's actually doing a show

Academy of Dramatic Arts. Then he
hit big playing Freddy Krueger and all those

120
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:22.360
Nightmare on Elm Street movies. Now, back in the day when you went

121
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:26.320
to a slasher film, they were
kind of a joke. So he went

122
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:28.559
just to kind of have fun,
get a little excitement. They usually let

123
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:33.159
him see some girls boom during the
movie. Now, their original Nightmare on

124
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:37.360
Elm Street came out scared that crap
out of everybody. Now, Robert,

125
00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:39.279
he had a nice career doing horror
films, but he says he's too old

126
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.960
to do Freddy Krueger anymore. Yeah, he retired from that one, not

127
00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:46.399
from acting, but from Freddy Krueger. So if they're released anymore Freddy Krueger
