Alright, i'm Italian, i'm gonna explain everything real quick. First, the place is named "ToccaFerro" (i think), The guy at 5:50 was saying "eat, eat! us italians like to eat a lot!", The black clouds are not that much of a surprise, in that place there is bad weather often as far as i know. Black cats are a tradition in that place, almost every granny has one, and they're little cats loved and fed by the whole city, my granny lives there and she has one too, the cat's name is Nuvola. (It means "cloud" in italian), Also hotels in that place have good reviews, yet are know to have the slowest service ever, and if you go there on Saturday, they're probably closed or busy, us Italians on saturdays like to relax and eat Carbonara (tipical italian food), and last, the chandieler that fell once he said "may a chandilier fall down if i'm lying" is a urban legend, i know this video is meant to show that it doesn't give you bad luck, but i wanted to point out and explain some of the stuff :)

"Your thoughts create your reality." "You just have to believe for it to be special, there is no secret." Its because they believe "that town" is full of bad luck.
I’m Italian, I’d really like to visit this place, since the people who live there look friendly, especially Chip!! Who cares if it’s unlucky? Might as well just go there and have the best time of my life!
Italian captain here: - 2:30 In Italy we "touch iron" ("tocca ferro") to reject bad omens, not wood. There is also a NSFW version where we touch our own nuts, lol. - 3:39 It's not uncommon to hear bells ring around 5 or 5.30 pm. It can be for a number of reasons. In my town they ring the bells every day at 5.30 pm. In this case I would suggest that a catholic Mass is ready to be celebrated.
I love how this resembles the ospitality of Italian small villages, btw Chip was saying "Mangiate Mangiate dovete sempre mangiare" wich translates into = "eat eat you always have to eat "so that's why he was bringing you all those chips Ps: the bottles are for cats so if they scratch it they get wet and go away, it's also very common in Greece
fun fact: all of the things that the italians said were not what you thought, the first guy (opthe old man) said that he didn’t understand a word of what isaiah said, and the second one was trying to describe the name because it’s called “touchiron” but amazing videos anyways! edit: “Chip” was saying “eat, eat, we always eat!”
3:47 maybe there was a wedding or something like that. Sometimes in Italy bells just go off at apparently random moments, expecially in small towns. This time I was on vacation in the mountains and this "alarm" went off and I was so scared. Turns out it was just mid-day! I thought that a war started or something 😂 4:30 Bells go off even when it's "time":30 in Italy :) 5:46 the guy was saying: "eat, eat, always eating" but not in an offensive way. I know old people in Italy are kind of weird but they are really kind and funny ^^ 6:59 Nah, Italians are just really friendly and welcoming, expecially if they're old people from the south of Italy. I tried to explain everything as best as I could, also I know this stuff bc a lot of my relatives live in Italy, so I went there al lot of times and I can speak Italian LoL
there could legitimately be witches there, and those bottles of water you saw could be them leaving it out to make moon water. Witches are just people who practice witchcraft, which, is becoming a much more common practice! :)
Please respect people and their beliefs. If you aren't into that stuff it's fine, but you don't need to say "It isn't real!!!!" Whether you're Atheist, Christian, practice Judaism, or any other religions, it doesn't matter. Just respect people please
Italian chips guy - “oh dear.. tourists in our town, well since they are cursed and will soon tragically die I guess I’ll give them their last meal as a send off”
I saw the short in my home page and i knew for sure that was in italy. You see, i'm an italian and seeing how the town was built i recognised the italian stile. Anyway i think i will visit that place, It's only a few hours from here so yeah, i didn't even know that this town existed but now i want to try those chips. Anyway if you want to order a pizza and a coffee you can say "posso avere una pizza ed un caffè per favore?" and when he gives it to you just say "grazie"
7:15 thats for preventing dogs and cats for peeing there, i know that because doing that here in south america is really common, idk why it works but it works.
That’s cool and all but The Hog Rider is a fast ground troop with medium hit points, low damage, and the ability to jump over enemy Walls. He is unlocked at level 2 Dark Barracks. The Hog Rider (person) is a bare-chested dark-skinned man holding a hammer. He has a Mohawk, wears a brown leather loincloth, a red belt, and a pair of leather sandals, as well as two large golden wristbands and a gold earring. His ride is a large hog, about half his height. It has a brown leather bridle looped around its tusks, which in turn is held by the Hog Rider. Hog Riders prioritize defensive structures above all other targets, and will bypass all other types of enemy buildings and troops while any defenses remain on the battlefield. This is true even if they are under attack by enemy Clan Castle troops, heroes or Skeleton Trap skeletons. Note that like all troops that prioritize defenses, Hog Riders do not consider the Clan Castle to be a defense regardless of whether or not it contains enemy troops, but do consider the defending Grand Warden and the activated Town Hall weapon (if any) to be defensive buildings. Once all defenses are destroyed, Hog Riders become like any other troop with no preferred target; they will attack the nearest building to them regardless of type, and will turn and attack enemy units if they become aware of any nearby. ADVERTISEMENT Strategy Offensive He can be used to jump over any level Walls, rendering them ineffective against Hog Riders. Note that while this allows Hog Riders free access to what lies behind the Walls, it does not open up gaps for other troops to move through. If the Hog Riders need the support of other ground troops, you will still need to deploy Wall Breakers, a Jump Spell, or Earthquake Spells in order to assist them. Hog Riders can be used en masse, i.e. a "Hog Rider Rush", without requiring any Wall Breakers to break Walls. However, such a strategy can be costly in terms of Dark Elixir, and sports weaknesses against defending Clan Castle troops, Heroes, Giant Bombs, and Skeleton Traps, a problem which only becomes more prominent at higher levels. At Town Hall 10 and above, Hog Riders can be combined with Miners in a strategy known as Hog Miner or Hybrid. Both troops are able to bypass Walls innately, but Miners do not have a preferential target, allowing them to cover for Hog Riders by dealing with defending Heroes and Skeleton Traps. The combination also has weaknesses against flying Clan Castle troops, as neither are able to target air. At lower levels, Hog Riders are quite capable of acting as distracting troops like Giants; they have nearly as much health as a similar-level Giant, move twice as fast, and do considerably more damage. They work well with the Healing Spell when you group several of them together. A good tactic for using Healing Spells is to place them strategically on a cluster of defenses (at least about 3 or more) and also deploy them shortly before the Hog Riders arrive in the area, deploy them in front of the Hog Riders. This is so that the Hog Riders get the most value out of the Healing Spell, and destroy the defenses without losing too much HP. Spots where Giant Bombs or Bomb Towers are/may be should be given special attention when deploying Healing Spells. Hogs of the same level as the Giant Bomb will survive a single Giant Bomb, but they're helpless against a pair of Giant Bombs even with a Healing Spell. Heal them after they've gone through a Giant Bomb blast. The Hog Rider is one of the best troop types for drawing out Clan Castle troops, as it can avoid Walls to penetrate deep enough to reach centrally-placed Clan Castles (and enough health to not die before it gets there). Deploy one or a few to trigger the Clan Castle troops, then lure the reinforcement troops to the corner side, and deploy multiple Archers or Wizards to slaughter them, and then deploy the remainder of your Hog Riders. This strategy is especially effective during Clan War raids. However, Skeletons from the Skeleton Trap and Heroes can also easily kill the Hog Riders, as they can only target defenses, so make sure to have some troops that target anything, such as Wizards, which can swipe out the Skeletons. Hog Riders don't target air so flying Clan Castle troops, especially Dragons, can be a big threat. Most mass Hog Rider strategies in Clan Wars require that the Clan Castle troops be killed first by luring. Bring other troops in addition to Hog Riders, such as Wizards, to deal with enemy Clan Castle troops and clean up the base. Poison Spells can be used to kill almost any enemy Clan Castle troop, but beware as the troops will attempt to flee the poison. If the Poison Spells are decently leveled, and you effectively keep the Clan Castle troops from escaping the Poison Spell with distracting troops, they can eliminate almost any troop. They can also be used to dispense of those pesky Skeletons risen from the Skeleton Traps. Time is also a factor to consider. With only 3 minutes in an attack, it is essential to make sure that this whole process and the remainder of the attack is done as quickly as possible to avoid running out of time. Defensive Defending against Hog Riders is tricky, as their ability to bypass Walls renders them irrelevant. However, the fact that they can jump over Walls and attack defenses means that they may leave behind their ground support (such as Barbarians, etc.), as they will not be able to follow. This will allow your interior defenses to concentrate on the Hog Riders. Another way to defend against Hog Riders is to exploit the fact that they will attack the closest defensive building. You can arrange your base in such a way so that you have high-powered defenses on the inside and lower-powered defense on the outside, with a layer of resources in between. That way, the Hogs will (in theory) complete a loop around your base before being able to attack your interior defenses (Inferno Towers, X-Bows, etc.), by which time they should have all been killed by the interior defenses. You can place Spring Traps and Giant Bombs in between defensive buildings to take out a few Hog Riders at a time; good usage of multiple Spring Traps and Giant Bombs can severely hinder a Hog Rider rush. Hog Riders can be easily killed using "forced pathing". Forced pathing is a strategy that manipulates the Hog Rider AI and makes them go to at least 2 defenses that cannot be prevented by surgical dropping or side clearing. Placing a set of Giant Bombs in between the two can most certainly hinder the attacker progress. They would not be able to heal the Hog Riders in time. Clan Castle troops, Heroes, and Skeleton Traps set to Ground Mode can be an annoyance to mass Hog Rider raids, as Hog Riders will not attack them unless all defenses have been destroyed. Make sure to centralize them if you want to beat Hog Riders. In Clan Wars, Dragons are excellent troops to place in Clan Castles against Hog Riders, especially for Town Halls 8 and 9. They have high HP, meaning they won't die easily and can kill mass quantities of Hog Riders swiftly if not properly lured. Most mass Hog Rider strategies require that the enemy Clan Castle troops be killed first, so if the attacker lures out a Dragon, but fails to kill it, then a 3-star win is next to impossible, much less a 1-star win via destroying 50% of the buildings. Multi-target Inferno Towers can be a severe hindrance to Hog Riders, having high HP to take several hits from Hog Riders, while hitting large groups of them. Although the Hog Rider is certainly not a liability on defense, the fact that all defensive troops are unimpeded by Walls negates the primary advantage of the Hog Rider. Still, for the space they take they are faster and more damaging compared to Giants. ADVERTISEMENT Upgrade Differences The Hog Rider undergoes significant visual changes at levels 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Initially, the Hog Rider is a dark-skinned man with a black mohawk and beard. He also has a gold earring in his right ear and sports two heavy golden wristbands, a red belt, and a brown loincloth. The Hog Rider's hammer has two brass bands. At level 3, his hammer increases in size and turns black. The brass bands on the hammer's head disappear, and the hammerhead goes further down onto the stick, creating a button looking object on the top of the hammerhead. At level 5, his mohawk turns from black to orange, making it similar to that of a level 5 Goblin. At level 6, his hammer gains three large, golden spikes and a bronze plating. At level 7, the edges of his hammer start to glow red, and he gains a brown headband but reverts to a black mohawk. At level 8, his hammer is now mostly golden. His hog also gains a headband. At level 9, the gold on his hammer is much thicker. His headband also lightens in color. At level 10, his hammer turns a bright light blue color that resembles the look of ice. This matches the theme of Town Hall 13. It also gains a small same-colored glow. At level 11, his hammer turns a light greenish color. This matches the theme of Town Hall 14. His hog gains gold armour on its face and muzzle. History Patch Type Description March 12, 2013 Update Added the Hog Rider, with 5 levels.

In Italy is pretty normal hearing bells without reason haha you’re gonna hear them in every town of the country I’m italian btw People usually put water bottles on the floor near doors ti avoid cats peeing on them
actually the man who touched metal saying « toccaferro » is just because in italy instead of the expression « knock on wood » we use « touch metal » :) also if you visited this town on a sunday then the bells probably rang simply because it is sunday lol andd the guy bringing chips was saying « eating, eating, we’re always eating »
3:57 that was perfect timing, as soon as the bells stopped he just pointed out that there are dark clouds like the saying when something bad happens there’s a dark cloud or whatever
The name of the town is: Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
2:30 I have to correct you, maybe our traditions are different, for good lucky we dont touch wood, we touch metal, because is the material of horseshoes are made of, and they are simbols of good lucky, so if you dont have one of them to touch, you simply touch something made of metal .

However, Skeletons from the Skeleton Trap and Heroes can also easily kill the Hog Riders, as they can only target defenses, so make sure to have some troops that target anything, such as Wizards, which can swipe out the Skeletons.
Hog Riders don't target air so flying Clan Castle troops, especially Dragons, can be a big threat. Most mass Hog Rider strategies in Clan Wars require that the Clan Castle troops be killed first by luring. Bring other troops in addition to Hog Riders, such as Wizards, to deal with enemy Clan Castle troops and clean up the base.
Poison Spells can be used to kill almost any enemy Clan Castle troop, but beware as the troops will attempt to flee the poison. If the Poison Spells are decently leveled, and you effectively keep the Clan Castle troops from escaping the Poison Spell with distracting troops, they can eliminate almost any troop. They can also be used to dispense of those pesky Skeletons risen from the Skeleton Traps.
Time is also a factor to consider. With only 3 minutes in an attack, it is essential to make sure that this whole process and the remainder of the attack is done as quickly as possible to avoid running out of time.
Defensive
Defending against Hog Riders is tricky, as their ability to bypass Walls renders them irrelevant. However, the fact that they can jump over Walls and attack defenses means that they may leave behind their ground support (such as Barbarians, etc.), as they will not be able to follow. This will allow your interior defenses to concentrate on the Hog Riders.
Another way to defend against Hog Riders is to exploit the fact that they will attack the closest defensive building. You can arrange your base in such a way so that you have high-powered defenses on the inside and lower-powered defense on the outside, with a layer of resources in between. That way, the Hogs will (in theory) complete a loop around your base before being able to attack your interior defenses (Inferno Towers, X-Bows, etc.), by which time they should have all been killed by the interior defenses.
You can place Spring Traps and Giant Bombs in between defensive buildings to take out a few Hog Riders at a time; good usage of multiple Spring Traps and Giant Bombs can severely hinder a Hog Rider rush.
Hog Riders can be easily killed using "forced pathing". Forced pathing is a strategy that manipulates the Hog Rider AI and makes them go to at least 2 defenses that cannot be prevented by surgical dropping or side clearing. Placing a set of Giant Bombs in between the two can most certainly hinder the attacker progress. They would not be able to heal the Hog Riders in time.
Clan Castle troops, Heroes, and Skeleton Traps set to Ground Mode can be an annoyance to mass Hog Rider raids, as Hog Riders will not attack them unless all defenses have been destroyed. Make sure to centralize them if you want to beat Hog Riders.
In Clan Wars, Dragons are excellent troops to place in Clan Castles against Hog Riders, especially for Town Halls 8 and 9. They have high HP, meaning they won't die easily and can kill mass quantities of Hog Riders swiftly if not properly lured. Most mass Hog Rider strategies require that the enemy Clan Castle troops be killed first, so if the attacker lures out a Dragon, but fails to kill it, then a 3-star win is next to impossible, much less a 1-star win via destroying 50% of the buildings.
Multi-target Inferno Towers can be a severe hindrance to Hog Riders, having high HP to take several hits from Hog Riders, while hitting large groups of them.
Although the Hog Rider is certainly not a liability on defense, the fact that all defensive troops are unimpeded by Walls negates the primary advantage of the Hog Rider. Still, for the space they take they are faster and more damaging compared to Giants.

Upgrade Differences
The Hog Rider undergoes significant visual changes at levels 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.
Initially, the Hog Rider is a dark-skinned man with a black mohawk and beard. He also has a gold earring in his right ear and sports two heavy golden wristbands, a red belt, and a brown loincloth. The Hog Rider's hammer has two brass bands.
At level 3, his hammer increases in size and turns black. The brass bands on the hammer's head disappear, and the hammerhead goes further down onto the stick, creating a button looking object on the top of the hammerhead.
At level 5, his mohawk turns from black to orange, making it similar to that of a level 5 Goblin.
At level 6, his hammer gains three large, golden spikes and a bronze plating.
At level 7, the edges of his hammer start to glow red, and he gains a brown headband but reverts to a black mohawk.
At level 8, his hammer is now mostly golden. His hog also gains a headband.
At level 9, the gold on his hammer is much thicker. His headband also lightens in color.
At level 10, his hammer turns a bright light blue color that resembles the look of ice. This matches the theme of Town Hall 13. It also gains a small same-colored glow.
At level 11, his hammer turns a light greenish color. This matches the theme of Town Hall 14. His hog gains gold armour on its face and muzzle.

Legends say he still has bad luck
Nice video this video was entertaining and fun to watch 😃
For the future: RIP Rock. Isaiah>The Rock
Yo that guy at 0:31 was Harry Potter.
actually the man who touched metal saying « toccaferro » is just because in italy instead of the expression « knock on wood » we use « touch metal » :)
also if you visited this town on a sunday then the bells probably rang simply because it is sunday lol
andd the guy bringing chips was saying « eating, eating, we’re always eating »
Imagine The Rock going to this town, you can't even imagine it because he would be so scared of going there.
Stolen comment
5:47 basically what he’s saying is that us Italians just keep eating and eating. That’s why he keeps giving you guys food
Lol he was a great guy
Imagine doubting living 24 hours in a town that is normal but has rumors about it
maybe the town lied abt the bad luck so that tourists can make them money lmao
You need to study the art of paper because everyone knows paper beats rock
3:16 OH MY GOD THAT CAR HAS MY NUMBER ON IT-

The name of the town is:

Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
2:30 I have to correct you, maybe our traditions are different, for good lucky we dont touch wood, we touch metal, because is the material of horseshoes are made of, and they are simbols of good lucky, so if you dont have one of them to touch, you simply touch something made of metal .
The old guy that was keeping bringing chips to you, said:
"Eat, eat, we always eat!"
How do I know?....
I am Italian. xD
My guy is mrbeast 6:30
"you know its like a dark cloud?"
"yeah"
"look over there... 😟"
"WHAT THE FRICK"
got me laughing like crazy!
