It was filmed by French brothers Louis & Auguste Lumière. According to legend, as the image of the train filled the screen, the audience panicked and ran to the back of the theater in fear. There’s no evidence  of the audience stampede ever happening but that legend helped cement the film’s place in movie history. Shiryaev told NowThis that  improving footage with machine learning is one of his hobbies. In August 2019, Shiryaev upscaled  the 2012 footage of NASA’s Curiosity  rover descending. As of Feb 5, 2020, Shiryaev’s version of ‘The Arrival of a Train’ has nearly one million views on YouTube. #film #documentary #machinelearning #News #NowThis #NowThisNews Connect with NowThis » Like us on Facebook: http://go.nowth.is/News_Facebook » Tweet us on Twitter: http://go.nowth.is/News_Twitter » Follow us on Instagram: http://go.nowth.is/News_Instagram » Find us on Snapchat Discover: http://go.nowth.is/News_Snapchat NowThis is your premier news outlet providing you with all the videos you need to stay up to date on all the latest in trending news.
