Newsreel footage from the Tacoma Narrows
Bridge Collpase. She was already known to
move up in down in the wind, but in 1940, she
began to oscillate due to resonance and would
eventually collapse

| B.K.S. Iyengar 1938 newsreel Part 1 (SILENT) |
 |
This is from the same 1938 newsreel that
shows Krishnamacharya demonstrating yoga.
Here we see a young Iyengar (still alive,
well, and doing yoga, BTW) doing advanced
poses that constitute the advanced A & B
astanga series. This is obviously well before
Iyengar dropped the vinyasa aspect from his
practice and rebranded it as "Iyengar Yoga",
putting greater emphasis on allignment.

| 1952 newsreel- latest futuristic and experimental aircraft |
 |
-- Bill Horton's "wingless airplane". Bill
entered into a partnership with Howard
Hughes, and legal wrangling from that (still
ongoing!) stopped all development of this
plane.
-- "Sky Baby" the world's smallest homebuilt
biplane, 1952. Made it in the "Guinness Book
of World Records", but not practical for the
homebuilt market and designer Ray Stits
donated it to the National Air and Space
Museum.
-- the Fulton Airphibian, the first roadable
aircraft (designed to be used as a car or an
airplane) to be certificated by the Civil
Aviation Administration.
-- XH-17 "Flying Crane", by Hughes aircraft.
It still holds the record for the largest
flying rotor system that ever flew. But was
not practical for production.
