Sam's perpetually inconsistent censoring may be my favorite part of this channel
Simon, who literally hosts a show called Geographics: "Detroit, Illinois" sounds right
lol. Good point. Simon,...lock it up. ;-]
Simon doesn't know anything he just reads scripts other people write but because he reads them, everyone thinks he's smart.
InciniumVGC we don’t think he’s smart, we think he’s funny
@@InciniumVGC Simon is a presenter. he never claimed to be smart, just to be better at reading out loud than us.
edit: although he turned this into a business, so that already makes him smarter than most.
TBF, there IS a Detroit, Illinois. It has a population under 100. Not 100k, just 100. However, this is not where John DeLorean is from and it isn't where the cars were built. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit,_Illinois
Simon:
Packard Motor Company? Never heard of it. Maybe it just made shit cars.
Packard:
Actually goes bankrupt after making cars of too good quality
My grandpa used to build (work for) Packard!
Ask the man that owns one
Shit.
Yeah because they were high quality they were super expensive so not enough people wanted to buy them. They instead bought Nash Ramblers (Nash became American Motors and eventually went out of business also...but at least they lasted 30 years longer than Packard.)
@@themoviedealers Imagine that. Following a World War and a massive economic collapse, people were a bit less extravagant in spending.
I heard Simon has multiple personalities. Danny and Sam are only two. He never sleeps. Survives on facts alone! What an amazing beings!
This might be true. I'm not even sure any more.
"Plane whoopsydoodle."
Shouldn't have laughed at that, but I did. A lot. 😂😂
"Allegedly" merch is allegedly in the pipeline. Allegedly.
i want that shirt soooooo badly
We need to buy it soon. Cause the merch will be delivered tonight.... mostly.
Just commenting to algorithmically support Simons cocaine habit
It's why he has so many channels. Gods bless cocaine. 🙏
So the Boi with the Blaze
Is also the Guy with coke?
Ape Deathray .....don't be a douche, why don't you just send him some actual cocaine if you (allegedly) want to support his (alleged) cocaine habit?
"Allegedly"
Allegedly
I can just see Danny in a rock pit as Simon yells down at him
“It puts the script in the computer or it gets the hose again”
"PUT THE SCRIPT IN THE FUCKING BASKET!!!"
It cant get the hose if theres a computer too. 🤔
No doubt a reference to a scene Simon has never seen
sporkafife I know right, he said he’s never seen princess bride and so he had a ton of comments “never seen princesses bride, inconceivable!”.
I really wish I could have watched him read the comments, muttering to himself “well it’s not inconceivable, maybe they don’t know what that word means.” Lol!
Hey Simon, I loved this one. The DeLorean is probably THE most iconic and wanted shitty car :D.
Since it would also be about automotive: could you ask Danny to write a script about the Volkswagen Diesel scandal?
There are so many hilarious facts around that one and I would love to hear about them in an upcoming blaze.
Back in 1983 are used to be southbound on interstate 287 in New Jersey near Somerset New Jersey and you would go over Route 22 going east and west on the left-hand side there was a building that didn’t seem to be rented but the parking lot had between 1000 and 1100 bright silver cars parked in it for several months one day several moved car movers showed up and all the cars left when the sun hit the cars from my right which was the worst at night on the way home the glare was unbelievable. Nobody really paid much attention to them when they showed up or when they left now it would probably be a tourist site. So somebody had a lot of these cars in one place at one time I always heard they were impounded but never really heard much about them
There's a garage basically full of One off factory custom Ferrari F40s rotting in a garage in Brunei.
What about the hilarious esacepe of reno nissan boss, actually is that on biographics?
Deloreans are cool asf they just need to be LS swapped:)
I worked for GM when John was still there. He was the father of the Pontiac Firebird and the Trans AM. Both of these cars made literally millions of dollars for GM. As an example, Burt Reynolds drove a Trans Am in Smokey and the Bandit. Some GM and Ford cars were considered true sports cars, but they were never intended to realistically compete with European sports cars. Also when I worked at GM, I drove a company car, and every year, seriously, I and other folks who drove company cars, would carefully note what specific mechanical problem was going to be the primary repair issue that year. Some years it was brake systems, transmissions, carburetors, air conditioning systems and so on. It became a running joke.
😲 You forgot the GTO! F bodies are really cool, but the GTO is the coolest muscle car made (and the car that kicked off the factory muscle car trend depending on which camp you are in)! I might be biased though. I have planned on buying my dad's 64 for the last 20 years even if it is only a 4 barrel soft top with a two speed auto.
2 years later watching this from Ireland , my 2 favorite films BTTF and SATB Jerry Reed will always be my favorite American
This channel grew so fast I remember when there was like 300 subs I follow all your channels this is my favorite
I'm Commander Shepherd, and this is my favourite Simon Whistler channel on Whistler Station.
Samsies!🤗😍😘
Yeah, after this channel grew in that quick time, I thought his podcast channel might grow like this channel too, but it hasn't seemed to yet...
I was in the 1st 1,000 as well. This shit is the best shit to ever be shat
Thanks :).
1985: "We can't have kids imitating the movie and jumping into a refrigerator. They might suffocate."
2008: "Indy, get in!" *NUKE*
Think there might be more safety measures now but yeah still not a good idea
Get in there Lewis
So on the subject of car safety. Why do car trunks have latches inside so you can get out, but morgue draws do not?
@@brolohalflemming7042 kids shouldn't be hide and seek at the morgue?
@@bartfoster1311 Well, I mean, if you *have* to be sensible about it...
Refrigerator's used to self lock. So many young children died while hiding in them. Magnetic doors started to come into use as they could be kicked open from the inside. It reduced the death rate dramatically.
That makes sense, definitely unfortunate though.
I have one of those refrigerators in the basement. I won't say what's sealed in it, though.
Brian Crawford lol
There is a “Special episode” on punky bruster about it.
@@terabiman You should try getting into a blood banking freezer. It's something insane like 80 below. It's pretty damned cold.
I love that Simon just stops in the middle of the video to talk for a minute about his broken boiler... this is the high quality educational content I'm subscribed for.
Missed a trick not kick-starting the "allegedly" t-shirt, flying to a country where cocaine is legal, and filming yourself snorting the full dollar value of your Kickstarter up your nose.
Allegedly.
He already lives in one.
Legal tho?
I feel like its not really legal anywhere...definitelyNOT anywhere its SAFE to visit with a large wad of legal tender.
@@FOODSTAMPS860 It's legal in sea land, and Simon IS a knight there.
Fuckin typo! 😰😡
@@FOODSTAMPS860 Hmm. 🤔 I already gave an answer, but my comment seems to be missing. Drugs are decriminalized in Czech republic, and thus personal use is legal. Just like in Portugal. Its a fact, not an opinion.
Simon, Danny, and Sam are the true Legends!
The Holy trinity as Simon so humbly puts it lol
I’ve noticed that mega projects is drifting to a business blaze style.
Many of his channels are now blazing.
Not mad at it
And that’s a good thing
Simon is just getting lazy. To strict he had to add some sense of levity.
Everyone loves a good blaze 🔥🔥🔥
Getting to see Simon's humorous side is certainly worth him just cold reading an unseen script. LOL
The GTO with stacked headlights is my favorite gto model
Ever seen the official video to "Life is a Highway" by Canadian rocker Tom Cochrane? Red drop-top Bel Aire, I think '67...had the stacked headlights and looked very similar to the GTO. Also, the song was later covered by Country wankers Rascal Flats for the soundtrack of Pixar's Cars so you might likely have heard that version....unless you were listing to popular radio or watching MTV in 1991
"The refrigerator has to bring in cool air."
Sir, I am triggered beyond belief.
It's been a while.
Thank you.
17:48 "yeah 9/11 plane woopsiedoodle" x'D Best comment of the week (in context ofc)
digimanga ...brilliant...hahaha....and then he followed it with "what, too soon?".....classic, Simon!
The DeLorean, the worlds first snorts car...
🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👌🏼🏆🏅
O
In approximately 1983 are used to come southbound on 287 into Somerset New Jersey where route 22 crossed east to west on the left-hand side of the road was a parking lot at a big office building that had over 1000 DeLorean‘s since it was the end of the day the sun coming from my right or the west hand side would hit those stainless steel cars and almost make it undrivable all of a sudden over today. Car movers showed up and all the cars disappeared but this had to be the most cars or DeLorean‘s ever in one place at one time they sat there I think for about six months in the well had to be over 1000 cars there it was impressive but like most things they just were not so well known because nobody really paid much attention to them now you would probably get flocks of people to try to go there.
Lexus took over the moniker, they have models with tiny coke mirrors built into the center console for the driver.
A business blaze Pablo Escobar? Might have a mention of cocaine.
Maybe. Im pretty doubtful, he never had anything to do with it
He was "allegedly" associated with it. He was just a very successful small business owner in a niche market. Who through a serious of brilliant business moves was able to "eliminate" his competition.
@@beowulfsrevenge4369 and oversight committee
I would like the comment but I don't want to ruin it. It's at the perfect number.
@@beowulfsrevenge4369 You must be very clever and know all about business. I would never have thought to disguise mass murder by claiming "through a serious of brilliant business moves was able to "eliminate" his competition". Will you be about in the next couple of months. I may have an investment opportunity in southern Mexico, involving small localised plots of land. I may need a chap such as yourself who would be able to explain away any chemical changes to the soil composition.
The most alarming thing on this video : this is Simon WITHOUT cocaine in his system 😐
Later on : Simon smashes his flux capacitor and blazes way past 88mph.
they absolutely gave up on the censoring halfway through the vid and i absolutely love that
Just got a new phone. Came with RAID SHADOW LEGENDS!!!
Yeah deleted it
You Legend!
At least you can delete it, imagine if you had to play for 10mins to access your phone
NO?! Really? Is this true?

Yeah, idk what companies or anything but some have included it as part of the pre-installed software that comes with the phone. Luckily not set as a system app or anything though 🤣(at least afaik)
@@brainblaze6526 unfortunately yes, along with candy crush and a few other money grabbing games. I might have to "cleanse" this thing with fire to be safe...

“Light is so bright here” so proof that Simon is likely a vampire
Confirmed. Vampire robot.

@@brainblaze6526 I think the scientific term is "Dracudroid", correct?
I'm now expecting a Today I Found Out about how fridges worked, since Simon doesn't know already, though there is some interesting history of innovation there - its probably be write interesting 😉
Overhead cams are exactly what they sound like.
The cam inside the head of an internal combustion engine can be either up the top end of the head, with the rockers underneath the cam.
Or the cam can be underneath the rockers.
A cam is a lot like the crankshaft, a straight round rod with offset ovaled lobes sectioned evenly to one another along the rod. It runs in line with the inlet vales or injectors. They let petrol/diesel into the combustion chamber) on the down stroke of the piston.
On the up stroke of the piston, the cam rolls around and opens the exhaust valves, letting the exhaust gases flow out of the engine.
It is timed with the crankshaft and the harmonic balancer by either a chain, belt or can be gear driven.
My Geography Side of me died when you said Detroit, Illinois.
Mi... Michigan? Is that right? I could Google it, but I prefer to rely on the information presented by the documentary Robo-Cop
@@Naptosis I mean, Sam Googled it for everyone right in the video.
Majorcaro ......what did the pedantic side of you do?
Then he says Chicago Ohio. When Chicago is in Illinois. To be fair I couldn't point out Wimbledon on a map.
@@andrettibark It actually takes place in London.
Regarding the fridge question.
There were a number of cases of suffocation of children, back in the 50s I think it was. Fridges back then had these iconic large chrome plated handles that locked the door shut. Legislation was introduced that required fridges to be opened from the inside.
Jonatan Rullman ...So can we count you as a "No" on the frozen children thing?
@@remlatzargonix1329 He used to keep a couple in one of those fridges for a rainy day, that is until he found out to his detriment that it's frowned upon to keep the frozen carcasses of his neighbours kids in a fridge, apparently people get upset about it for some reason, and I have it on good authority that it's kind of illegal. :D
And to further answer Simon's question in a fridge/freezer air is not pulled in, they're sealed. The refrigerant is compressed on the outside of the machine, then moved through a sealed system inside, the refrigerant then expands and soaks up the heat, and a fan may be used to mix the cold and warmer air. There is also a fan that can be used to blow the cold air from the freezer in limited quantities into to the fridge compartment to keep it cool (often it's the same fan), but no air of any significance gets in or out once the doors are shut.
@@serpent77 He has an entire channel about engineering, still not sure if that was trolling or not though.
@@greenhowie The whole thing is a massive troll... I dunno, I think that's the point of it, now sssmash that dislike button.
Thank you for putting Danny's name in comic sans. Putting the blaze in business blaze
Always.
Simon we as a society need more people like you. Especially your view on religion absolutely brilliant. I appreciate honesty and this is wonderful.
You can definitely suffocate in an old refrigerator. There are occasional news stories and articles for making sure any unused fridges on your property aren’t safety hazards.
I learned the dangers of hiding in a fridge as a child from an episode of _Punky Brewster._ 🤷🏻♀️
Simon finding out how much his merch costs, being disgusted ,then backpedaling when he realises that's the ONE sponsor he doesn't want to piss off is priceless..
edit: don't know if you chose the time for that ad break at 17:08 Sam, but it was perfectly timed with the meme.
Ad breaks are all chosen by UA-cam automatically, but sometimes they absolutely nail it.
They also often choose Raid Shadow Legend ads, which is golden.
"Where is Detroit" Sam. If I ever meet you, I owe you a beer.
Okay but no Heineken, Danny would kill me and we have radiator space.
@@samuel_avila I might actually enjoy being chained to the basement radiator with y'all, as long as someone provides decent takeout & a pad of MadLibs. And gin as a beer alternative :-)
you know what surprised me on that map is that Windsor is to the south.... at first I thought he had it upside down but then I looked it up myself and that *is* correct...
geography's weird.
Your allegedly shirt should have a big paragraph of things you have said on the show and a big stamp of allegedly on top of it.
I think it'd be best if it ONLY said, "Allegedly". Perhaps over or under his face on his regular shirts.
That's all. Just his face and, "Allegedly..."
Personal preference of course.
@@robertkruse2360 Compromise: Make it like a band tour T shirt. Have it just say "Allegedly" on the front, and on the back it could have a bullet-point list of shit Simon's said, arranged like a listing of concert dates.
The allegedly shirt is a 2birds with 1 stone for some of us who like Letterkenny as well. If someone said "i liked your shirt" i would be curious as to which one was why
Wah wah. That's a brilliant Idea!! 🔥⭐
I second the motion
I remember when the news broke about DeLorean's FBI drug sting. His car company venture was sometimes updated on the news. Remember, Back then, we basically had 3 channels, ABC, CBS, and NBC. There was also PBS, but that was limited to Sesame Street in the morning and Monty Python at night, a combination I still don't understand, but I am SO glad I flipped over to channel 2 (PBS) one time at night anc found out about Monty Python when I was a kid. :)
The public was VERY sympathetic to DeLorean, who was seen as a champion against the big car companies who, until then, had really been giving us shitty cars, but they would soon hae their asses handed to them by the Japanese auto invasion. When the details of eh sting came out, and people found out that the FBI used a *REAL* drug dealer, who approached DeLorean, who was struggling to fulfill his lifelong dream, and *MEANT* to help the US public by upping the standards and expectations for good cars, whooo-boy, people did *NOT* like that... Not. One. Bit.
As far as the DeLorean car itself, it was pathetically underpowered. One of DeLorean's quotes about the car industry was 'Too many bean counters and not enough Engineers', but unfortunately, his company was doomed from a LACK of bean counters and financial responsibility.
Mudder Fukker WELL SAID - as a car guy Old enough to remember it on the news. The proud owner of a 65 GTO and a fan of John DeLorean from an engineering standpoint. This video scared me for life and is one more reason to lose faith in humanity!! - AHH Millennials!!!!
Well that and 12 inches of snow.
My 9th grade chemistry teacher drove a DeLorean. It's now sitting at a golf shop in the shop owner's collection.
Fridges normally don't breath the way you're thinking. They're essentially insulated sealed boxes with a heat pump to remove what heat works its way through the insulation, and those can be constructed in a closed cycle with a refrigerant. The fans attached to them are necessary to blow air across the condenser coils, the same as an A/C unit.
A NEW BLAZE. Settling in to earn my ABSOLUTE LEGEND title by watching all 34:42 minutes of glorious Simon rambling.
You absolute legend. It's confirmed.
SIMON HAS DIFFERENT OPINIONS THAN ME, DISLIKE SMASHED
SMASH IT ;)
Double down on your disapproval and double tap that dislike button!
"Allegedly"
When I was growing up, my neighbor got a Delorean before the movies came out. It was a sweet looking car - Delorean was a legend car designer! (Yea, I'm in the metro Detroit MICHIGAN area)
A movie that Simon has seen? I never expected that.
He should watch The Fastest Delorean in the World I bet he'd enjoy it... Been to the dude's house and the car is amazing. I saw it on the street years beforehand once, so that was cool getting to chill and hang and laugh at my friend suck and lose at mini-golf that was insane.
I am now going to refer to 9/11 as "the plane whoopsie-doodle'
Reminds me of that tragedy.
How about the CIA whoopsie doodle instead?
Worst birthday party ever when that whoopsie happened
@@joshglover2370 Why is everyone so obsessed with the CIA but doesn't do any actual research on the intelligence community? Have you heard of the National reconnaissance office, National Geospatial Intelligence Agency, or the Defense Intelligence Agency? Yes, these are all real and yes, they all have official .gov websites if you care to look. Just Google "Big 5 intelligence agencies" (Yes, we have five. And that's not counting military intelligence.) And of the 5, the CIA is really not that worrying. We know alot about the CIA. These groups operate ENTIRELY under a black budget, we don't even know how many employees they have or what their official mission statements are. The NRO has existed since 1961 and no one outside top levels of government knew until 1992. Its declassified government information that they had satellites that could effectively determine the bore dimensions of a tank gun from space, in the mid 1980s.
@@barneymiller7894 Daddy chill
Used Simon's extended ba duh boom boom tssss in a Teams meeting today. One of my colleagues piped up with, "That's not how you do that!" and my boss replied with, "...allegedly." and then we laughed and laughed and didn't explain why. It was great! .........SMASH THAT DISLIKE BUTTON.
Can I join your Teams meeting, sounds much more exciting than mine!
Glad to hear that you're all being productive 😂
Sounds like a better meeting than oh so many others smh.
This is epic. Best thing I heard today.
OMG Now you know that you are all secret Legends.
"Do refrigerators have air?" well Simon, you are brilliant in many ways. You dazzle us with your humor, your idea's, you entertain us with your wits and sarcasm. But an engineer you are not. In those days you could get locked in some fridges and suffocate. When i was a young boy they had public service commercials about not playing in fridges and if owners were disposing of one, they had to take the door off. Great Blaze, you should do one on the brickland car,, there is a story with ups and downs.
Thing is, that PSA was running long after the issue would have been likely. The magnetic sealed door was gaining popularity in the early 80's, so the latch-handle models were mostly being moded out.
@@OtakuUnitedStudio Yes i did fail to mention that PSA was out dated, maybe it continued for the ones who still had an old one, don't really know why. So in Simon's defense ,,he was born way after that was an issue, my bad. Sorry Simon,, :-)
Not playing in fridges? That is highly specific. I don’t think I would have thought of that until I saw the idea on tv.
They definitely have air, they just don't have airflow
@@doctorlolchicken7478 In summer-time, with no air-conditioning... seems like a "cool" place for a little kid to hide during hide and seek. I can see it being popular.
This is the one that got me to subscribe, I've watched your other channels for over a year, and this is one of my favorites. Keep up the good work. I enjoy the raw opinions, and the way you really don't care who subscribes. Unlike most other channels on UA-cam, who are always asking for subscriptions and the eximent about cocaine is hilarious.
Fun fact for you about US car regulations: they are different in every state.
Some allow personally made cars to be driven, some require you start with a chassis from a production vehicle to make a kit car, some require safety inspections (MOT's basically), some don't. Some have emissions requirements, some care how dark the tint on your windows are.... It's all down to state regulation. I am sure there are some federal regulations for manufacturers, but most things come down to state laws.
I lost it at "plane whoopsy-doodle", hilarious!
“Includes cocaine” - I’d be disappointed and surprised if it didn’t
'Allegedly' you have to snort it off the steering wheel but only at 88 mph.
Every time Simon tells me to smash the dislike button I want to slam the "like" button like 40 times. I think I have problems

I think you just might have problems as well. You only liked then unliked twenty times. You need to at least need to hit the like button an odd amount of times for the last hit to be the only like that counts. Or just just stop virtue signaling your Simon fetish.

I owned a 1981 DMC-12 Delorean and it was an interesting vehicle to be sure. So iconic that people would slow down to take pictures of it when I was on the road, or crowd around when filling the gas tank. Did not have a lot of pickup when it came to speed, but would cruise nicely (did get it up to 88 Mph once, causing the steering to get floaty due to the front end lifting). The biggest comment I got on it, other than "OMG! Is that a DeLorean?!" was if I would make it look like the one from the movie. Other than some memorabilia I had in the trunk, I did put in a Flux Capacitor that hung between the seats off of the cargo netting.
You sold it?

When the host of 8 UA-cam channels who is famous for plastering his own mug all over shirts and well... mugs... calls out your narcissism that's how you know you're a narcissist.
Also, I wonder if Simon ever shed a tear for the seized DeLorean cocaine.
Alleged cocaine
I cried for a month, and I don't like cocaine at all.
I wept, but then I found out it wasn't really cocaine, and all was right again in the world.
I hate seeing that large scale destruction of such sweet substances.
Seen some absolutely absurd amounts of drugs from across the spectrum just burned away in huge piles.
Like multiple forklift load piles of shit.
Tons of MJ, Coke, H, various pills, and smaller amounts of just about everything else under the sun.
Definitely deserving of a mourning period. So much lost. AND WHY?!?

"if you unsubscribe it wouldn't matter"
To answer your question yes getting stick in a fridge would absolutely suffocate you, there is no air exchange going on between the inside and the outside just the refrigerant moving in it's own sealed loop between the cold plate on the inside and the radiator on the outside using compression and expansion to forceably drive heat from the former to the latter.
Started watching Business Blaze because of Simon. Comes back for Danny's tales
I really, really want to know the story behind the Comic Sans burn of Danny's name in the credits...
The real miracle of science that Doc Brown performed wasn't making a time machine. It was making a DeLorean go 88mph and stay in one piece.
Wow you dont know shit! They hit 88mph no problem. I been to 125 easy. The car is better than what you drive im sure
The Men Who Built America is probably the BEST documentary/drama series that I’ve ever seen.
As a Master mechanic I worked on many, many DeLoreans. Once learning the quirks they were really quite manageable. And fun.
The dual overhead cam is essentially the same engine still in use today, and is the most popular form of an engine.
It was quite exotic at the time, and a rarity among American manufacturers. The GM Quad 4 was still a few years away, and the econobox Ford Escort used a single-OHC engine into the 90s. I'm not sure what Chrysler was doing, but then again I never am...

About overhead cam vs overhead valve: a 4 stroke internal combustion engine operates like suck, squish, bang, blow. 1. A mixture of fuel and air is sucked into the fngine by the vacuum created by a piston moving down, 2 the mixture is compressed by the piston moving back up, 3, the mixture combusts, 4 exhaust gasses are blown out. In step 1, the intake charge, or mixture of fuel and air is let inmuch the valves open and how long they stay open is controlled by camshafts, basically just shafts with cam lobes on them that open and close valves. Old school engines are called overhead valve and the cam is located down in the engine block and requires pushrods to operate the valves. This is extra moving mass and inefficient. What DeLorfan invented is overhead cam, where the cam(s) are/is in the engine head, above the valves which allows them to operate them directly, without pushrods, so its a bit more efficient.

Stop complaining, I've had to work nearly every day and I'm not looking forward to everyone else saying 'isnt it great to be working again!' 😁

Hearing it called Detroit, Illinois feels weird since I am an Illinoisan.
Then you should know that you have your very own Detroit. Right about here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit,_Illinois

The first time I thought I was seeing things. The second time I knew I had been trolled. xD
I've been scrolling comments for 10 minutes trying to see whether anyone else had noticed Sam getting in on the Danny-baiting by using the *worst font ever*.
Why hasn't your comment been *pinned*?!
"...a mist of bones."
Epic burn by Sam putting Danny's name in Comic Sans
Simon. Where are you finding these McLaren's that only cost 3 times a corvette? I want one too. 😉
Danny. You need to start including some small photo's of old stuff you reference, I feel if Simon saw a firebird he would know exactly what one was. ("Oh the car from Night Rider with 'the Hoff' in it.")😉
Sam. Loving your work dude. 👍
hahaha, true.
@@brainblaze6526 I've just realized that *SAM* reads the comments, not Simon.

In the US. You can buy a used Mclaren 650s for about $150,000 and a new Vette is $60,000 base price.
The Delorean is a classic case of "never meet your heros".

I'm late to the party but an overhead cam is when the camshaft, a part which opens the valves for air, fuel, and exhaust, is above the cylinders. This is better than a pushrod design because there are less moving parts and less slop which allows for more precise timing of valves opening and closing.
I can’t even tell you how excited I was when you mentioned one of my favorite people of all time at 12:37, Gio Jibjabjiobjob. Maybe we can do a Simon crossover and get a video on him on Biographics. Anyway, thanks to the Blaze Barons for making me learn a little bit and laugh a crap ton. It’s much appreciated.
cam shaft controlls the timing of the valves ergo when it takes in air , compresses it , burns it, then exhausts it. known as the 4 stroke engine. is driven by the crankshaft which drives the pistons thaare responsible fore the aforementioned functions . over head simply means that it it is over the head covering that covers the pistons. honestly Simon that's a great video for today I found out .
"They've got to bring cool air in" Yes Simon, that's how they work. On a hot day a fridge brings cool air in to keep your beer cool. /facepalm
Thank you, I was hoping someone would say it. Yeah Simon, a fridge just blows “cool” outside air on the food.
It's why opening the fridge frequently makes the whole process so much more efficient. 🙄
Maybe his fridge is a Maxwell's Demon model?
@@oxoalan1 shit that reminds me I forgot to open my freezer last night! damn missed that cool summer air.
@@svampebob007 I leave mine open at the moment (it's winter) because then there is a net warming effect in the kitchen. Sadly, the salmon has defrosted.

70’s. He was in a TV show called Hee Haw. Detroit, Michigan!!!
Hee hee hee HAW HAW! I loved Roy Clark as a kid, bc I watched it with my awesome hillbilly grandpa. Also Roy was an amazing musician and as a wee one “Dueling Banjos” was a great song. So there

I absolutely love this vid! Better telling of the story than anything you will come across, even in the future! Simon has evolved past the 'talking head' youtube story tellers and has planted his bong ass on the top tier. Good job guys, keep 'em coming.
Since Simon asked what overhead cam engine is at 6:15, I am bound to explain.
A camshaft has lobes to control the opening and closing of engine valves. When the valves are directly controlled by the cam lobs because of camshaft sitting right on top of valves, that's overhead cam.
Other method is to use a rocker arm to transfer the control from cam to valve, allowing the camshaft to not sit on top of valves.

WRITE THE F*CKING SCRIPT, DANNY!
And one of Simon making puppy dog eyes and saying "I need you Danny"
Obviously that needs to go on 1 of those keys used to bleed radiators (very niche merch i know) 😜

Slap me danny? Plz no xd
according to Simon’s pronunciation the Italian car designer was an Ewok

Firebird - never watched "Smokey and the Bandit"? (admittedly that car was a later version, but still.....)
Come on, boi! 😂
Simon hasn't seen star wars, you expect him to have seen a movie about driving beer in a truck while Snowman sings country music about what direction they're driving? 😂
@@jonintheredZ06 East Bound and Down baby! 😂
Yep definitely deprived child
Sooo, Simon is a young kid? Nothing before 1996?
Liam NIre thank you Liam!
Lane change turn signal just means you don’t fully depress the lever till it clicks. You hold down slightly, the turn signal blinks and when you release the lever it goes off.
12:47 - I realise it's written Esprit (which kinda looks like Espirit), but it's pronounced "Ess-pree". I have a bigger issue with this than the Star Wars thing Simon! You're British FFS! 😂
Liam NIre ...have bowl of branflakes
Holy shit, totally is, I legit thought these were two different models of Lotus... HA!
Esprit is french for spirit, cant blame the poor brit for the pronounciation 😜😹
I’m British and I deliberately mispronounce anything French, which is quite common where I grew up. Buffet, Ballet, Filet, etc.. Some people don’t know they are saying it wrong, others do. Nobody cares.
Reminds me of Only Fools and Horses.
