Absolutely this, I was thinking exactly the same thing. This one was sinking fast, but between them they threw their shoulders back, dived in and saved it - hats off to the pair of them!
@@apb3251 The unknown reason is unfortunately a lot of 'eccentrics' in Toronto who will yell at you, as Hawke put it in his Instagram comments... most anyone who approaches you on the streets in Toronto will not have anything nice to say. Harassment, stalking, catcalling; all often substance-fuelled. The finance district is particularly a tough crowd but there is reason to be cautious in Toronto
You just know that all those who ignored Troy will have that moment forever on their mind. Always regretting their decision to not interact and pondering upon the complexity of possibilities
Your talent is wasted on them Canadians Troy... they seem unable to appreciate your beautifully british humour. I, on the other hand, absolutely adore you, and there is nothing you can do to stop me! Come home we love you here. 😘🤜🤛❤
I apologize for my fellow Torontonians - we truly are a group who are paranoid of people talking to us, who fear any kind of human contact, who are over-protective, and also very untrustworthy of anyone even glancing in our general direction. We have a lot of work to do. But your bright light was needed, even if it wasn't appreciated at the time. We have to do better.
He probably did this in downtown Toronto. Like 75% of the people trying to talk to you in downtown Toronto are drug addicts, homeless people, or people with mental disabilities. They wait for people to give them attention, then they never leave them alone and can get violent. Source: I'm from Toronto and I made the mistake of giving some weirdo 10 seconds of attention, only to be followed for the next 20 minutes with the guy telling me about his ...... life? I guess. Idk.
I dont know if that comment is sarcastic or realistic, but why is that? Isnt Canada one of the best countries to live in? Isnt this beahiour more suitable for a poor/high-crime/sad country?
God these Toronto videos make me so embarrassed to be torontonian but they are accurate. No one even likes to make eye contact in the city. Most accurate part is the driver parked in the crosswalk.
I did not know I missed Troy in Toronto. Damnit I would have gone there just for the compliment 😂 I'll have to pay attention to his tour dates next time.
Dungarees lady with some of the energy that the rest of Toronto seems to be missing! Meanwhile, Troy on point as always. He’s a true legend that brings it every time!
I would fan girl all over Troy. And, yes, Torontonians really are this suspicious and humourless, on average. Once in a while you'll find Miss Dungarees or Rogers Guy. Or me! I, too, am the exception to the dour rule.
Yup, Toronto is a town full of humorless zombies. I lived there long enough not to be surprised by these flat reactions (or non-reactions) to Troy's joyful comments. It's just sad.
Damn missed you by a matter of days. I was recently in Toronto, my first time in Canada from the UK and yeah the people weren’t that friendly or chatty, im from northern England and love to meet new people but was hard work 😢
Toronto clearly needs training on how to deal with the Hawke 😂😂😂. Thank God for guy in truck and dungarees lady 👍
Absolutely this, I was thinking exactly the same thing. This one was sinking fast, but between them they threw their shoulders back, dived in and saved it - hats off to the pair of them!
And the dog owner in the peach cap 😁
Everyone in Toronto is miserable af but it’s a pretty city
It’s like most places in NA terrified to make eye contact for an unknown reason

Three minutes of joy; top marks to Red-van Driver and Dungarees Lady.
That haircut could work in any of the last four decades, sheer brilliance from Troy.
That was super fun! Peach cap and overalls are great, but the fellow greeter driving the truck really put in the work.
yeah, the truck driver was epic
Standing still to salute the lovely person on the mobility scooter was class 😁
2:28 "Joyous Laughter"
More like "Super villian Laughter"
what a legend
You just know that all those who ignored Troy will have that moment forever on their mind. Always regretting their decision to not interact and pondering upon the complexity of possibilities
Loving ya Troy-like tongue response.🤜🤛
Stunned into mute paralysis by the unexpected blast of charm and good greetings
Are you Gregor? I’ve been given wrong information. I am done 😂😂😂
The man's going to be forever mystified by that exchange 😂
Tough crowd, but you got through, it'll sink in, they'll be forever talking about the mythical God of greeters.

You make Londoners look positively bubbly.
Very British I must say 😅
I hope this sparks the growth of something beautiful in Toronto.

A lot of people in Canada are morbid to such compliments. Jan molby would be disgusted.
He’d do better in Vancouver!
😂
"Gym-fit John Oliver"! 😂
I think that wasn't exactly a compliment. 🤣
People must get mugged a lot in Canada lol
i got lost in toronto downtown once, can confirm, nearly got mugged
Troy not unlike a gentle west wind, pleasant and refreshing, making everyone else’s day a touch better with his favonian charm and friendly banter.
God these Toronto videos make me so embarrassed to be torontonian but they are accurate. No one even likes to make eye contact in the city.
Most accurate part is the driver parked in the crosswalk.
Educating our north-westerly brethren in the gentle art of Hawkisms may take some time.
Always a gift of happiness..
Watching these videos brings a smile to my face.
So much goodwill being distributed.
Never underestimate the power of a compliment. They make us feel special.
Meteorological warning - peak compliment in Toronto.
If j saw Troy in Toronto I would t rush away… I’d take him to the best places to greet people!!!!
Thanks so much for the smiles and laughter 😊❤
The van driver saved the day 🙌
Bloody great!
The van driver gets it
I did not know I missed Troy in Toronto. Damnit I would have gone there just for the compliment 😂 I'll have to pay attention to his tour dates next time.
Interacting with Canadian NPC's 😂 they need better AI
😂 amazing again!
Thanks for dungaree lady to make this awesome haha
Its funny that the countries who youd think were friendly and have abit of banter(canada,Australia)were 2 of the most stuck up.
Oh dear me. If I wanna know my next destination I'll just watch Hawke's
You can never be too careful 😂😂😂
What a legend!
Come back to England where you are truly appreciated. 😂
4th , story of my life
You were before me. Seems i am still bringing up the rear 😅
Dungarees!
Now I will have a wonderful day.👍😇
haha, poor girl is still trying to work out that Kai reference
Some of these Candians really dont get it do they?
I need a rotation.
if the guy in the truck laughed any harder he could of hurt himself
your best yet Troy!
Cheer up Canada, it might never happen
“Gym fit John Oliver” 😂
❤
Psychology should be taught in schools.
Please come to the S Lawrence Market/Esplanade!
🤣🤣Top Shelf 🫡‼️
Brill😊
Toronto looks depressing
It is not at all. Big movie stars can wander around here. People respect privacy
Troy they just aren't in your league. And also they have 0 humor lol
So if dungarees are called overalls in Toronto, what are overalls called?
Dungarees, obviously.
Can you greet outside a shoppers drug mart please
First!
You’re like a gym fit John Oliver
Wow , Canadians, what is wrong with you?! What was that? THE ABSOLUTE WORST REACTIONS BY FAR!
Canadians can come across as a bit soulless.
Troy remains at his peak, while humanity just gets more boring.
Second
Rogers Dude. Your smarts are wasted on that job sir.
Canadians are so sad hooooooly
Good work Troy, but they don't really know how to respon🤦♂️
Gosh, how boring are some people. Just a bit or fun, people have become scared to interact anymore.
ahahahahahaha npcs
Torontonians don’t care
Are you a nonsense person lol
Dungarees lady with some of the energy that the rest of Toronto seems to be missing! Meanwhile, Troy on point as always. He’s a true legend that brings it every time!
The Rogers employee and overalls were the only ones up to the task. Be better Canada.
Good thing it wasnt a Bell employee
"You look like a gym-fit John Oliver" seems like a compliment to him but also in some way a slight at John Oliver.
Wow, they are all so stiff and serious. That was a tough crowd!
we need more,,these 3 min wonders are addictive.
Be kind to all you meet.
You have a wonderful tempo on your walk 😂😂
He actually does though!
Fantastic Troy!
How does Troy's brain work so fast
Apart from the van driver, most of these guys were pretty dour.
Love how he can match anyone's energy
Are the Canadians ok??
I would fan girl all over Troy. And, yes, Torontonians really are this suspicious and humourless, on average. Once in a while you'll find Miss Dungarees or Rogers Guy. Or me! I, too, am the exception to the dour rule.
Wow. As a Canadian, this is brutal. Picked the wrong city. Come to Winnipeg.
Toronto...what happened guys? lol
Yup, Toronto is a town full of humorless zombies. I lived there long enough not to be surprised by these flat reactions (or non-reactions) to Troy's joyful comments. It's just sad.
They mostly look terrified to interact with anyone. Must be a miserable place to live.
In a world of negative trolling, what an absolute joy! Have the very best of days, everyone!
Damn they’re even more cold than Londoners
Ok.. am here anyway, i am not 10th 😅
So much ignorance.....
Those dungarees were absolutely splendid!
This man is what the world needs more of ☺️
Third lol
Thank you and Welcome to the colonies, you King of Greeters and Good Fellowship! We Toronto Tontos are not worthy! You stoop to conquer!
Damn missed you by a matter of days. I was recently in Toronto, my first time in Canada from the UK and yeah the people weren’t that friendly or chatty, im from northern England and love to meet new people but was hard work 😢
Sorry Toronto overall lady...those are clearly "shortalls" 😅
Send it home Troy, wasting your time being complimentary in American and Canada.
They have seemed to have lost their British heritage
Question for Troy Hawk, how do I get into the Greeters Guild ?.
All that wasted on most of them people. The odd couple responded well but the amount that just put head down and rushed past.
Please come up to Lawrence park
Did he mean cobra kai with the bandana comment?
Troy is hilarious 😂😂😂😂
