Can you imagine an elevator that has no doors and doesn't stop? Paternoster was a highly questionable invention intended for making it comfortable to reach even the highest floors. This lift would move slowly in a loop, went up and down, and never stopped. For those who like to do things their way, like putting on makeup and doing their hair before taking a shower, there’s a weird vintage invention too. There were many other weird inventions which thankfully stayed in the past. #brightside Preview photo credit: Paternoster Lift Challenge | University of Sheffield: The University of Sheffield / YouTube, https://youtu.be/iG2j0okC-wU Animation is created by Bright Side.

More Why They Don’t Built These Non-Stop Elevators Anymore Videos

Taking a photo with your phone takes less than a second, but in their early days, photos took way longer. The oldest photograph in the world is about 200 years old. It took around 8 hours to capture it! It was taken by Joseph Niepce in Saint-Loup-de-Varennes, France, and titled simply ‘view from the window.’ And if you think selfies are a recent concept, here comes the big surprise: the first selfie was taken in 1839! Its author had to stand still and look forward for a staggering 15 minutes. #brightside Credit:

More Why Carrying a Photo in Your Wallet Is a Must Videos

Imagine a building that looks like a regular one on the outside but is actually all fake? Turns out New York City is full of those. At 58 Joralemon Street, there is a building that was meant to be a regular one, but in 1908, they converted it into a fake building. It’s part of a ventilation fan for the subway and also serves as an emergency exit for some of the surrounding buildings. All the way to 415 Bruckner Boulevard, the Bronx, this townhouse also serves a similar purpose – to hide an electric substation for New York’s utility company. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. —————————————————————————————- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz —————————————————————————————- Our Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru —————————————————————————————- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me

Here comes a collection of facts you've always wanted to Google but never actually did. I'm sure you cried at least once when cutting an onion. That's because onions and garlic contain amino acids, and one of the compounds gets decomposed when being sliced and irritates your eyes. The reason why you see things when rubbing your eyes is that you increase the pressure in your eyeballs and activate the neurons of the retina that process visual information. Some backpacks have sternum straps, and they allow you to redistribute the weight of the backpack a bit. #brightside Credit: CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/: YKK Zipper: By Jorgebarrios, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=12024875 YKK: By Cornischong, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=15341871 Chips: By Silverije, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=99551354 Animation is created by Bright Side. —————————————————————————————- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz —————————————————————————————- Our Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru —————————————————————————————- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me
