This is a little video of a group of French [edit: French-Canadian] kids being handed pieces of old technology from the past 30 years and trying to determine what the hell they are. Objects include a Game Boy, old Coleco Vision cartridge, 8-track player, record player, floppy disks of various sizes, and an old rotary phone. I'm not gonna lie, the kids fail pretty hard. Which is weird considering I feel like my generation is at least aware of the technologies of yesteryear. But maybe that's just me. Or -- OR -- maybe this is just French-Canadian kids. Just remember -- those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.


The three-and-a-half minutes of poor guessing.

Portable 8 track player-"I thought it was a bomb." Priceless.

Scary that I had one in the 70's. Loved that damn thing and the three cartridges I had to play.

I may not be as old as some. but I do actually remember old game boys, and floppy disks.
Speaking of gameboys, did you know that apparently the new 3DS is apparently dangerous to people because of its 3D technology? lol

And the black kid was the first to use it as a turn table... maybe he'll be a dj when he grows up.
