Berlin in July 1945 (HD 1080p color footage)
That's how it looked like just after the Second World War in Berlin! Fascinating moving pictures in color show the situation of the city in summer 1945, just after the Second World War and the capitulation of Germany. Daily life after years of war. Pictures from the destroyed city, the Reichstag, Brandenburger Tor, Adlon, Führerbunker, Unter den Linden, rubble women working in the streets, the tram is running again.

Not really the end of the war yet. The US bombed Japan a month later.
Not exactly "HD" but pretty damn good for 70 years ago.
Amazing clip for historical period of time
Obvioulsy it starts off with footage of some guy without a leg, probably lost in the war. Very interesting look at such a long time ago.
