I'm 67..my "arts and crafts" class project was to make a chariot..pretty sure got a D in that class but been fascinated with tracked vehicles ever since..LOVE this channel! Thank you for the memories!❤❤

I was born in 1959 so I kind of grew up watching Lost in Space. The show with its special effects and futurist ship and robot really captured my imagination. It was my favorite show growing up and I still enjoy watching it today as well. I really do believe that shows like Lost in Space helps to make young people interested and curious about science and technology. Great video Dan!

This is one of the BEST channels on YouTube. Thanks Dan for another fantastic glimpse behind the scenes of my favorite TV show, Lost In Space.

I always wanted to have my very own chariot from lost and space.

Since Billy Mumy and Angela Cartwright and Marta Kristen are still with us, I'd like to see an updated film of the Lost In Space characters
in a new story to see what happened when they got older. Did they ever make it back to Earth? Did they just accept that they would
never make it back? Imagine seeing Will Robinson in his 60s still piloting the Jupiter-2 through the galaxy. But also imagine that
they never encountered other humans and so never fell in love and married. Being truly lost in space would have been a prison.
It would also still be possible to have June Lockhart in the project since she's still with us at 98 years old ... she'll be 99 on June 25, '24.

I was probably six or seven years old when my parents drove down the road next to the Fox lot. Sitting next to the fence and fully visible from the road was the Chariot! Best day ever!

[kahunadad]

The Chariot was my favorite part of the show after the Robot ! Them Chariot theme in "The Angry Sea" was my favorite Music cue too

[kbjerke]

When the series first came out, I *WANTED* a chariot like that!! That, and a flying belt, lol. Thanks, Dan!

[brooksiefan]

Now, tell me there isn't magic all over that series. Amazing things happened and we are all fortunate to have that material still around. Great episode!

The Rocket Belt (Jetpack) would be perfect to bumper to bumper rush hour traffic. I would've loved to elope with Judy in the Spacepod.

[igorschmidlapp]

That ski slope deserved to go out of business for abusing the Chariot that way. Just having it for a skier transport would have been an attraction in itself...

[sanddab]

I have a photo of my 8 year old self standing next to the chariot in 1967 on the studio lot back when 20th Century Fox had tours for the public.

My grandparents had a cabin in Big Bear Lake, CA. In 1970, I was 9 years old, and I saw the Chariot parked just off Hwy 18 at the Snow Mountain ski area (now Magic Mountain sled & water park). I begged my parents to stop and let me look at it. At the time, it still retained all of its exterior show appearance, although it was looking pretty rough. I climbed up on it to get a to look inside. The drivers seat and skid steer controls are all that I remember seeing. The next time we came up to Big Bear, it was gone, and I never saw it afterwards.

Here in the UK, we've had a huge number of homegrown sci-fi TV series, along with plenty of Hollywood productions that have shot here. You'll often spot props from some movie or TV show turning up as hired-in elements in another show.

One of the repeat offenders for this is the BBC's Doctor Who (particularly during it's original run, between 1963 and 1989). Because of the format of the show, with the Doctor bouncing around time and space and sending up somewhere new every few weeks, the show's designers had to be on the ball. But they also had to spend their limited budgets wisely. So they'd call round props houses and scenery high places to get whatever they could.

One particular story saw the Doctor land on a planet where alien computer absorbed all energy. So when the Daleks turn up, their death rays are useless. But in secret, they fit themselves with a bullet - firing gun with a distinctive barrel. These were provided by an armourer company who hired out guns for TV and films.

A couple of years later, this same armourer company was providing weapons for a production called "Star Wars", which needed a lot of prop guns. So, they reused the barrels of the Daleks' replacement guns and stuck one on a pistol. That gun was given to the character known as "Walrus Man", and you see it again in The Mandalorian, amongst his arsenal aboard his ship.

Dan Madnbad still here watching 🔥💯‼️Please dont quit!!!

[trikkerman]

Do a What Happened to Bigfoot and Wildboy. Seems not to many people my age remember that show. I'm 55 now.

[Iconoclasher]

Even as a 10 year old I could never figure out how they stashed the thing when not using it. It was almost a quarter the size of the J2. 😂

[JustWastedHoursHere]

Lost in Space was one of John Williams' first composing jobs, long before he wrote the themes for Jaws, Star Wars, Superman and Raiders of the Lost Ark. What's interesting is that he didn't compose for each episode but rather did several different themes for different possibilities in the show, like intense moments, scary moments, whimsical moments and so on. Then the editor for each episode would just use whichever sounded appropriate. Alexander Courage did the same thing for the original Star Trek series.

[dondickerson]

As a kid watching Lost in Space, I wanted a Chairot just because it looked fun as hell. Still hope I can hit the lottery and have one built. I am 64 and still live all of the old shows the best

[perry]

It justs shows the true genius, and production of the show. They didnt miss a beat with the chariot. Amazing.
Thanks Dan.
