Feeling old? Watch kids outrageously react to Walkman cassette players

             
It wasn't long ago that we all thought a Walkman and a pair of headphones were the ultimate way to listen to music.           

But come this generation, hilarity ensues after kids get introduced to what has now become outdated technology like tape cassettes and a Walkman.       

In this "Kids React to Walkmans" video by new-media production duo "The Fine Brothers," kids and teens attempt to figure out the portable cassette player known as the Walkman with mixed results, especially when all they had ever known were digital devices like tablets and iPhones.           
In the video, kids and teens poke and prod the Walkman, without a clue as to how the portable player actually plays music.       

The kids had a similar reaction when given a plastic cassette tape and asked to put the tape in the Walkman.          

While many of the kids interviewed complained about how long it takes to put the cassette in the player, plug in headphones, and then listen to the music, another kid said it's just as time-consuming to play music on an iPad.         

While watching this video may make some of us feel old, it's important to remind ourselves of the technology from the past so we can appreciate the gadgets of today.
