What was your first YouTube steam engine video? Here is mine.
No matter if it is nice or not, warts and all, it must be the
first.

Here's my first on YouTube.
1,138 videos ago in 2006. (I've been busy!)
My Jensen #95-G outside in the winter driving 2 Jensen generators.
Enjoy,

Thanks, Gil, for your very first YouTube video.
A good runner, short, sweet, and to the point.
My first was a cellphone video and looks like it.
Now, you other steamers are 'On the spot'. Ante up!

The earliest one I've found, though there was a better one a couple of days later that perhaps I should have show.
Naw ..... it isn't really that much better.

Thanks Bruce, for the kind words.
That video may have been the first one I ever uploaded to YouTube, but I think I took several videos of that engine a day or three earlier, and that was likely the third or fourth try. A couple of the other videos I took that same day didn't get loaded onto YouTube until a few days later, the reason being my internet connection takes over an hour to upload each minute of video, and any little glitch kills the whole deal and then it needs to be started over. So, this video being the shortest one, I uploaded it first as a trial, after failing a couple of times trying to upload the longer one.
As for my voice appearing on videos, there are several that have it, sad to say, so if you want to hear me at my worst, check my YouTube archives!
Meanwhile, here is that longer video of the same engine, that I think is actually the first one that I took and tried to upload, but failed, so went to the shorter one to find my first successful upload:

My very first videos were all gas and hot air engines, but my very first steam engine video was my D.R. Mercer traction engine 14 years ago.

Oooooh that's a nice one Mike!
Seems I could get enjoyably dizzy watching that beauty, even if it was tracking in a straight line!!!
My first video of a stationary steam engine (I had made one of my first outdoor live steam railroad about a month earlier) was this one of my Wilesco D21 powered EKT workshop diorama. None of my videos are very professional and this is no exception but at least it showed things running.

Can’t remember my first as the first few were terrible quality and deleted (not that this one is much better 😂)
This was a copy/ripoff of the Demon’s video as I really liked his idea
