How did Czechs and Slovaks in 1950’s see the “crazy” year of 2000? / Co ocekavali Cesi a Slovaci v 50. letech od roku 2000?

cosmic future google imageMy linguistic buddy Jamie forwarded me this awesome YouTube video the other day (thank you Jamie!) which you just have to watch; it is a REAL documentary about what Czechs and Slovaks  in 1957 expected in the “cosmic” year of 2000 to look like. When I watched it for the first time, I could not believe it was real! But it is real!!!
PS: the movie has English subtitles :0)

CZ: Muj linguisticky kamos Jamie mi nedavno doporucil YouTube video, na ktere se proste musite podivat. Je to vynatek ze zpravodajstvi ceske televize (CT1) z roku 1957, ktere divakum predstavuje, jak by mel “kosmicky” rok 2000 vubec vypadat. Je to fakt sranda – tedy to, ze to ti zpravodajove mysli vazne :0)

    This is really cool! I remember when I was a small child (and I am 30 now), we would always try to imagine what the year 2000 would be like. And this is even older!!! I wish some of the things came true, though… What do you think 2050 will be like?

    Man, 2050….are we still even going to be here??? Maybe we will be all living on the Moon like “Neznalek” by then 🙂

    Rok 2050 – to zni opravdu kosmicky; a budeme tady vubec jeste? Mozna, ze budeme vsichni bydlet na MEsici jako Neznalek!!
