@james fraser That is not the case. @ohn McDevitt The bells in Westminster clock tower do not have buttons - they're controlled by a weight-driven clockwork called the 'Bell train', which is at the top of the tower. At each Hour a break is applied after the amount of 'bongs' required. To allow the bell to chime for this long, the breaking mechanism just doesn't need to be used, allowing the weight to drop further down the tower, making the clockwork work for longer. The clockwork is semi-automatic, keeping time of the clock and bells, although it is still manually wound 3 times a week by a group of clock-keepers.
Big Ben is the nickname for the great bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London, and is generally extended to refer to the clock and the clock tower as well. The clock tower holds the largest four-faced chiming clock in the world and is the third-tallest free-standing clock tower. It celebrated its 150th anniversary on 31 May 2009, during which celebratory events took place. The tower was completed in 1858 and has become one of the most prominent symbols of both London and England, often in the establishing shot of films set in the city.
People, the bell works separately and there is a person or a computer that strikes the hammer to the bell. So they can ring it at 5: 00 or 5:05 as they wish. or any number of times aswell.
the clock is still working but hammers that make the chime have a manual seting that lets you chime the as long as your finger is on the button its a verydangerous thing to i know this because im a bell ringer and we do it and it broke one of our bells doing so
Can we have a new rule, we all know by now that Big Ben is the bell, not the clock itself. But everyone calls the clock Big Ben anyway, so why not officially rename it?
Judgment that is not physically, mentally, and spiritually beneficial is useless therefore has no true value. Without judgment progress cannot be made. For no one can express or receive love or any other desired emotion in its entirety if the don't know themselves. We are all not created equal however we all have a equal obligation to living up to the pleasure, potential, and responsibility of femininity and masculinity. So do your best to become physically fit, mentally sound, and spiritually balanced being able to express physical freedom. Which can be accomplished through clean air, water, fitness, and high sources of nutrition organic and non-genetically modified would be best. Plus formal education or real hands-on experience. When one learns the body's capabilities and limitations by fully engaging with all their senses to their extreme limits in the most efficient way that is humanly possible. The subconscious then begins to naturally subconsciously systematically coincide with the mind-body souls spirit mother Earth and all the various different forms of life that live within this world and the most efficient way that is humanly possible. Thus yielding the best spiritual kickback for one's efforts accomplishments experiences. You might want to take these points to heart Considering the simple logic if life is not free, why the hell would death be any cheaper? It's not the question the common, basic, average, normal man or woman may be able to wonder is what is the spiritual cost to one's own soul and spirit for freely living dying off having only used the smallest percentage of a fraction of the true potential they are first born with. Not to add insult to injury for the last hundred and 50 years or so the mass majority of the population has been living and dying yielding the worst spiritual kickback that has ever been manifested since the beginning of life only getting worse. And that has nothing to do with everybodys so-called charming personality and everything to do with the standards of quality pertaining to our air, water, foods, landscapes, working/living environment, every day home products, habitats, and ecosystems. Which is ignorant beyond retarded (no offense to any disabled people.) When you consider for the last 490 years Give or take we have had the manpower woman influence or vice versa to have created clean high paying jobs from coast-to-coast globally that would improve upon and maintain the quality of our life in such a manner. That the mass majority of the population from coast-to-coast globally would naturally, gradually, and systematically start becoming stronger, smarter, healthier, happier, better off physically, mentally, and financially possibly spiritually then the previous generation. Now I would like to resurrect the wish and prayer I made prior to my 8th birthday which was to be held spiritually accountable to the statements I proclaim to the way I'm living personally and professionally. I guarantee you never see or hear another body, man or woman in power, persons of legal, religious authority, or leaders ever freely validate the statements they proclaim with that level of certainty one reason they don't have the best interest of the majority of the population's needs at heart a another reason could be they cum from a bloodline of cowards or simply have a lifestyle that suggests, confirms, and validates them as being feebleminded physically inadequate submissive subservient which it doesn't get any worse than that. One is genetically inherited and the other is a simple generic learned behavior. Quite possible to be a combination of these worst-case scenarios nonetheless either way it is physically, mentally, and spiritually useless to freely live and die in such a low quality manner. Especially if that ignorant stupidity, weak, lonely desperation stems from being soft, lazy, out of shape, over fed, undernourished, overworked, and underpaid with a dirty low-paying job that comes from outdated power sources, inferior materials, poisonous, toxic substances, pesticides, and chemicals that never change their killing composition. Which means simpletons whether it is a solid, liquid, or burnt off into our airways atmosphere as a vapor it is always going to be poisonous, debilitating, and deadly to the body at the same time polluting, corrupting, and devastating to mother Earth and all the various different forms of life that live within this world. There is no cash profit to be made in the demise of the planet. Thanks to those dirty low-paying jobs we are in the mist of environmental financial global collapse. The good news souls and spirits have paid out are picking up the tab on the end results of those dirty low-paying jobs. The even better news that the common, basic, average, normal man woman may be able to comprehend his souls and spirits have been are being managed, directed, maintained, and implemented with all the disease, sickness, illness, pain, suffering, injury, abuse, neglect, hunger, addiction, sadness, anger, and hyper- aggressive violence. That has been allowed to occur manifesting throughout the history of mankind into what it is today thanks to people like Donald Trump who have the false belief if the mass majority of the population is at their worst they will feel less afraid inferior to the true potentials of love, honor, and the creation of life. Here's the deal you're either part of the world solutions or exacerbating the planets problems there is no safe in between. Either way no matter how you look at it each and every moment of every life has been spiritually accounted for. S.R.F.
There are 4 Quarter Bells, and the hang around Big Ben. And, interesting, one of the quarter bells, as well as Big Ben itself, ring an E Note when they strike.
Whats Better?

Me too m8
toshin paban i
Pedro Pony: If it rang a 100 times?
Queen: Then, it would be broken.
Big Ben: *rings 40 times nonstop*
I love that reference, at least someone enjoys Peppa pig jokes
I counted 30 times not 40 tho 👌🏼
I can't imagine how hellishly busy London must have been in summer 2012, but this video gives me some idea
1:06 Big Ben strikes for Ladybug's 30th Birthday. 30 strikes, 30 years of Ladybug's life.
I do love Great Britain and all of the pomp and ceremony that we as a country do so well. I love it.
3:47 finishing off with the quarter bells
Big Ben: “Thank you, thank you, now I go to rest now.”
best sound ever
Who else remembers when the conspiracists wouldn't stop screaming about how Big Ben would get blown up during the Olympics?
I've also counted 30 times Big Ben chiming for the Olympic roll. The same number as the Olympiade.
love you Big Ben ❤🥰😍
Big ben Chimes 30 times because it was the 30th original Summer Olympic Games
Fantastically beautiful

I prefer the new present clock face. Bare stone and gold with that Royal Blue.

You just copied from the description.
I love big ben
1:23
That ‘woohoo’ got me off guard.
People, the bell works separately and there is a person or a computer that strikes the hammer to the bell. So they can ring it at 5: 00 or 5:05 as they wish. or any number of times aswell.
Nope. The mechanism rings the bell itself.
You're nowhere near understanding how a turret clock works
2012.. what simpler times they were
the clock is still working but hammers that make the chime have a manual seting that lets you chime the as long as your finger is on the button its a verydangerous thing to i know this because im a bell ringer and we do it and it broke one of our bells doing so
Looks smaller when you are near it, what I really like are the pubs in England, chicken & foster
looks like big ben is over excited
I would say so
I can so see them doing this at the San Francisco ferry building clock tower the Olympic Games ever came to San Francisco
That would be nice getting the ferry building to chime 40 times at 8:12 to the quarter past.
after i counting it, total chimes is 30 times, btw i like the sound of big ben too ^v^
Skip to 1:06 if you want to hear chime
I thought that Big Ben was going to play The Olympic Games Fanfare. This is disappointing.
Mission impossible 5: They achive to retrieve the device from the Big Ben and then all race to the Bank of England in London crazy traffic
ringing over London since 1066
Actually 1859
That was 30 chimes not 40
It rang 40 times
How do they make it chime 40 times???!!!
By releasing the Striking train mechanism by the lever that holds the chime until the hour until stopping it once the 40 chimes have been done
nice one mate
How would you get a clock to chime that many times? Would one have to disable the counting mechanism on the striking train?
They must have manually held something, because the clock face is nowhere near the top of the hour
How can they program Big Ben to do that...to make it chime without the clock mechanism?
They let the weights run down. It is a one of a kind movement that allows you to do that.
You can actually hear that the hammer strike isn’t as loud as it normally is if you listen closely.
Your LikeBot Has Deactivated All Because of The Downfall of The MaximilianMus Army.
MomentLover1200 Chill dude, I’m not part of his army. I just have this profile picture because I can.
STFU Boomer
How is that possible? How did they make it do that?
WTH 40 TIMES?
Else
Can we have a new rule, we all know by now that Big Ben is the bell, not the clock itself. But everyone calls the clock Big Ben anyway, so why not officially rename it?
It already has a name, Its called Elizabeth tower.
Kallum FRY Brookes
Talk about missing the point.........
BlouseCollar Upturned No, it's Stephens tower.
Leander Schoormans No, it's the Elizabeth Tower. Has been since 2012. Previously known as the Westminster Clock Tower.
It’s Elizabeth tower named after the queen
Rings at 09:00 London Time
4:20
1:15 OH SHEET 9/11-Oh, it's fine.
TheBroken Wolf yeah I see it
Especially considering that BB already has a crack in him!!
Am I thick or did that only chime 30 times? I thought it was supposed to be 40 times?
I counted 30 times not 40 👌🏼
Could I use this footage for a short film I am Busy working on, I will be sure to give you full credit. Let me know when you can =) thank-you
Actually 30.....
