The secret tip, I am about to reveal to you, will allow you to find and download literally tens of thousands of free, public domain videos, movies, training films, and more.
Using the Google search engine, you can use this little known search secret to find public domain videos that are hidden on Government agency web sites.
As an example, look at this Google search result below:
If you click on any of the search results, you will see folder index pages with downloadable files.
If you left click on these files, you can play the videos. If you right click on these files, you can download them to your computer. Check the video file size first, some of these videos may be quite large.
-inurl:(htm|html) intitle:”index of” ”last modified” ”parent directory” description size (wmv|avi|mpeg) site:gov
The search string, above, tells Google to look in the title of pages for the phrase, 'index of' 'last modified' and 'parent directory'. This will return computer folder listings.
The search also says to look for files with wmv, avi, or mpeg in the file name - indicating video files.
And the search says look only in government (gov) sites.
By building this type of search string, you can quickly zero in on files and folders that are deeply hidden within the file structure of these sites.
By experimenting and modifying the above search string, you can see what other results you can obtain.
A word of caution: You may come across adult content so be careful.
