My thoughts exactly. Maybe things didn't work out and they wanted to get rid of the wedding footage. And it keeps coming back like a boomerang?

The irony is that it's the people who recorded the mundane every day things, like going through McDonald's drive-through or riding a train, that now have the most interesting footage. E.g. There's someone on YouTube who posted up a one hour drive through suburban LA in the early 80s, and that's gold now.

I know what you mean about the mundane stuff being so sought after. I am also one of those people who bookmarks and slowly rewatches these videos, just hoping to spot passing details.
