Thank you to Adys Army for the invitation to be a driver. Also, thank you to @flyingsparksgarage for piloting the #freedomhawk, and @wirecaretv for their $1,000.00 Donation to @adysarmy. Last but certainly not least, thank you to YOU, all the viewers and subscribers for a wonderful year. Because of your subscriptions VGG was able to donate $2,000.00 to Adys Army, which is such a great cause with a 95/5 promise. Merry Christmas, and happy new year to ALL!.
That’s very awesome. It’s always important to keep in mind that so many people need our help. By that I mean even if we can just donate some time at out local Kiwanis‘s or other organizations it helps immensely.
Merry Christmas yall!
Merry Christmas Derek, from mine and myself, to you and yours. And here's to many, many more. And merry christmas to the whole vgg family. ❤️🤍💙
Merry Christmas to Derek, Jessica, Bradley, Bailey, and Bentley. You guys are very generous and giving. You spread 'car culture' one video, one ride, one handshake at a time. Thank you for all you do.
y'all was in my neck of the woods wish you and your family a very merry Christmas and as always TONS OF LOVE FROM THE 256 LITTLE OLE CULLMAN ALABAMA
"It smells like history passed gas." That right there. I mean, Derek, you're hilarious, but that .... that's gonna be hard to top. ha! Greatest line ever.
Best. Line. Ever 😎
My thoughts exactly!!!
Bro that kid is so funny.
I came here to look for this comment, i knew it was a golden line when the kid said it!!
Absolute best line ever!!
Sure did LOVE being apart of this day, y’all are the ABSOLUTE BEST!!!
You’re also the ABSOLUTE BEST!!! Merry Christmas!
Love your energy... Perfect
Thank you for being part of this ✌❤🤙
Well, a gal should really work on convincing Derek to get a boat, cause just how could that go wrongerer.
Emily, It was hard to tell who had a better time you or the kids. Hope to see Aaron next time around.
I really love how Derek, Jessica, and their family have remained so well grounded, and down to earth, as this channel has grown well beyond their hopes and expectations. Many other channels move on to insanely expensive projects that their viewers couldn't even dream of building, and manage to lose their roots. As an added bonus, as this channel has grown, you have returned the favor along the road, always giving to your fans and supporters, and to wonderful charity groups like this. Keep up your AMAZING WORK VGG!!!! Merry Christmas, and have a very safe and Happy New Year!!!!
Doing my best to blow up this channel. This is America at its best.
Ya brought a tear to the eye of this old bearded bugger, having a special needs grandson (in my wife’s and my care for 23 years) seeing events like this is so wonderful. Thanks Derrick I knew you had a big ol heart just by the way your always having your boys with you in the shop. Blessings brother and merry Christmas.
Boy, right when that young man said "let's do this! I can handle anything!" His excitement and joy. Merry Christmas y'all!
Oh yea!!!!
That kid had me laughing and crying lol. Jessica was funny to, she looked like she was about to launch on a roller coaster, waiting for the drop. Derrek,Jessica, and the kid's were great, what a family should be like as role model's. God bless.
I know! I must have said to myself "I like that kid!" about eleventeen times. His attitude was awesome! 👍
I'll be dipped!!!! Merry Christmas Derek, Jessica, and the kids. May you have a blessed and amazing New Year.
"It smells like history passed gas"
Probably the best line ever, even beats Derek's description of most old cars I've smelled. Honestly I had to pause the video I was laughing so hard. Hope y'all have a Merry Christmas and a new year full of exciting cars and... Probably rodent droppings unfortunately, but hey, if the mice haven't lived in it, what fun is it to try to get it running?
That was hilarious...... I did the same thing.
I was dying too, in true Derek form!!
Kids brilliant!
Top Gear never had me lol like that.
i dont even know what it means but i laughed so much!
Dude....just about pissed myself...HA!!! Wife just asked "Why are YOU crying??" Backed up and showed her...HAS TO BE in my top 3 of funniest auto-related things I've heard on YurToob ever!!
Derek...RIGHT ON!!
As an adult with autism who is a huge VGG fan, this video really hit me in the ol’ power barn. My mouth corners hurt from all the smiling. What a wonderful experience for those special kids. Blessings to you and your family and have a healthy and happy New Year!
Me too I have autism amd so does my son I was diagnosed with aspergers so this was awesome to see
Me too. I'm a fellow "Aspie".
Just when I thought I thought I couldn't respect a feller any more.... Great job Derek and Emily. This will mean the world to those kids and parents. I'm touched by your compassion. Merry Christmas.
This might be a late comment, but:
I can't tell you how much I appreciate the hard work and mental energy into this event! Having raised an Autistic kid, loving cars, this just hit me in the Emotions! Watching a Roadkill/Roadkill Garage car, which I started watching when they were still doing Hot Rod Unlimited was so cool! Then, to Emily participating, after watching her drag racing travel Team up with Finnegan.
This was such a great episode, don't know how I missed it.
Thank you to your wife, for letting you follow a dream and sharing it with others.
Derek, you and your family do so much for so many different great causes. You make people who watch you want to do and be better. Thanks for taking the leap with VGG, undoubtedly the best on utube!!
Thank you for the kind words Jeff. You've been around the channel for a long time, and consider you a friend. Merry Christmas!
@@Jabbing_Jack Get a grip man. You sound jealous and bitter. Grow up.
@@Jabbing_Jack Yeah merry Christmas. Dick.
@@mitto4504
😂👍
@@Jabbing_Jack
List all the charities you help. Show your work.
"It smells like history passed gas". Kids say the darndest things, lol. As someone who is middle aged and lives with Tourettes and Autism I'm thrilled about what y'all did for those kids. The awareness that I feel needs to be pushed most is people with disabilities can live at least a mostly normal life with the right resources to help them along when needed. And I've come across some VERY smart autistic people that will blow your mind. You won't find many jacks of all trades but the gated knowledge is usually way down the rabbit hole. Looked like a really great event and next time I'm in the Birmingham area I need to go to that museum. I'm in the area once a year. Merry Christmas y'all and happy new year.
Oh my god, that was the funniest thing I have seen in a long time. I really needed a good laugh. Merry Christmas!
@@thetech207 Yeah when it comes to older rigs he makes a valid point. It's what happens every time Derek opens the door on a new revival for the first time and describes the smell in detail...and a lot after that too, lol.
@@NoWr2Run totally!
@@NoWr2Run I was about to say that dude out-Derek'd the man himself... impressive!
I cracked up when he said that!!🤣
Derek and Emily thanks for doing what you're doing with these kids. I'm closer to your age than theirs, but I'm autistic and can't tell you what this would have meant to me at their age. You're heroes. Seriously.
You're doing good work here fellers and fellettes.
Having spent over half my life - 26 years, working with and loving people with developmental disabilities, this made my year. Thank you so much Derek and Jessica. Hard to explain the warmth this brought to my heart…
amen
This really made my Christmas Derek. So cool seeing the support you guys are giving to these kids and their families. I am constantly being surprised by how much you give back. Thank you.
I have been following Austin Riley for a few years now, an amazing young man and a perfect example of what can happen when an autistic person is given a chance. I even got to meet him a few years back when he visited Australia and came to our round of the F1’s.
Now I’m off to subscribe to Flying Sparks…
Keep up the good work guys, Merry Christmas.
🥰🙏🏼♥️
That first kid you had was hilarious “Smells like history passed gas.” That’s it in a nutshell kid I could not have said it better. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Funniest thing I heard all yr.
Awesome what Derek and the others did for those kids. They'll never forget this day!. As a 70 year old feller I get a lot of joy following Derek's antics. My wife got me a VGG shirt for Christmas and it is my favorite gift this year!
Merry Christmas Derek, Jessica, and the boys. Thank y’all for the hours of entertainment and helpful videos. Looking forward to another great year of watching y’all grow
Excellent video, as always. Thanks making us feel just a tad bit more normal in these days of turmoil. That Kawasaki with the extra cylinders you saw was probably done by Allen Millyard. He has a channel on YT you might like. What he can do with a hacksaw and a tiny shop in a garden shed just bottles the mind.
Where do I even start,I'm 61, been retired for 5 years now, and me and the missus have been fostering 2 kids with Down Syndrome one for 10 yrs, the other for 5. The oldest , boy, is 22 and I am restoring a 71 Nova Rally just to go out there and burn a lil rubber as to see the smile on his face !I for sure will be showing this to him tomorrow, and just the smile on his face will be all the thanks in the world! Thank you VGG, again, and keep the smiles a coming!
I loved that first kid in the road kill, had me laughing and crying. This is a great thing to do, love it guy's. Merry Christmas, and God bless.
Smells like history passed gas 🤣🤣🤣🤣 classic
"Smells like history passed gas" priceless! Well done Derek!
I love what you guys do for people during the holidays. Hats off to a guy, gal, and little humans. ❤️
My grandson has Autism. What you all did that day was the one of the best times of their life's. Thank you!!!
It has to be the greatest feeling in the world to see the smile on them kids faces during the rides. You Sir are a true saint. Not only are all your videos very entertaining, you as a person and your love for our Country and Military is something this Country and the people in it needs to see. God bless you and your family.
"I CAN HANDLE ANYTHING!!!" -- What an awesome attitude from that young man.
I’ll never forget the day not to long ago I came across you on UA-cam. what you and your family do to entertain your subscribers and your members but most important how you give back to important causes and raise awareness is just amazing. Thank you for what you and your family do. Merry Christmas and happy new year.
Thank you for the kinds words!
I wanted to say something along these lines, but @MODBOSS27, you've put the words together better than I would have. Merry Christmas.
He’s A true gentleman
"it smells like history passed gas" hahaha that made my day! Merry Christmas y'all
They say "charity begins at home". What a prime example of being involved & involving your sons! You both can be proud of being called parents, & the giving y'all do!
Thank you to the whole Bieri clan! Can't wait for all the chuckles, entertainment & tech to come in the next year. Have a safe, & blessed New Year !!
Long time subscriber. I’ve watched every vid. My youngest son has Autism. I had tears in my eyes watching this video. You and your family do so much for others. You sir, are the embodiment of a true American. Keep living the dream. You earned it. 🇺🇸💪🏼🇺🇸
“It smells like history passed gas….” Is the best line, little guys have the best minds.
Probably the best Christmas episode a guy could think of. Thanks for everything a guy does for the community.
One of the coolest things you’ve done to date! I (I mean “a guy”) cried a little. All your success is well deserved. Classy and family oriented. You don’t see many “car guys” out there like that these days. My granddaughter who is 2 loves to watch with me and repeats your common Derek’isms. It’s the cutest thing! 🤣
How freaking cool is it to see a fellar doing charity work and helping put on events like this .. So proud to support this channel and be a part of this journey RESPECT! Thanks VGG!
TEAR!!!!!!! The way you talk to the children was such a dad move keep up the the fun . Jesse's worried smile is a joy to see. God bless you and America.
There’s nothing like the smile on a kids face the first time they hear the roar of a stout engine and feel the torque pinning them back in the seat, such a unique experience!!! Aren’t those Allan Millyard custom made motorcycles just amazing, that guy is one of my heroes!!! Great video bud, Minnesota misses ya!!!
Totally agree!
if i'm not mistaken the 5cyl. 2 stroke and V10 are Allen Millyard's hand built creations. There should also be a V8 and a couple V twins.I wonder what Derek would think of the Viper V10 supercycle Allen built.
Canada north of Minnesota also feels a little less connected to VGG now but it is great to see Derek and family doing so well and giving back via this charity.
"It smells like history passed gas." That kid is on step with the Vice Grip Garage.
Yes that was a good one. Peace
That young man would give a guy a run for his money in the wise comment category!
From my family to yours, Derek - MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! Thank you for doing all that you do for us and everything that benefits our veterans!
my pleasure Sean, Merry Christmas
I went to this museum several years ago and it is amazing. I need to get back there soon. It's only about 65 miles from where we live. Thanks for taking the time to do this fundraiser!
Derrick man… I am sitting here in a tornado warning heavy storm wiped out my power… got generator running powered fridge a light and fan… watching you videos… I freaking love you… what a great soul you are. Thanks for your uploads! Keep it up! We all care about you!!!
Merry christmas Derek, Jessica and boys. Thanks for all you guys do
Merry Christmas Jeff!
Usually Derek gets all the good lines, but between "it smells like history passed gas" and " so good, and we didn't die" you got two upped today. Great vid! Keep up the awesome content sir!
"So good, and we didn't die!" MERRY CHRISTMAS DEREK.... I was stoked to see a new VGG vid this morning! Thanks for all you guys do to keep us entertained! Those kids will never forget.. Oh and the challenger sounds to good! Good times...
Derek I’m watching this on Monday and on Christmas night I have a nephew who has autism and I never really expected the joy of taking the child on them in our case a motorcycle ride at night up and down the street my nephew giggled and laughed the whole time it made my Christmas, I recommend anybody that can do something like this. do it! it was absolutely awesome
Thank you all for what you did for the kids. A gift to those that need it is a gift to yourself. Well done.
This is exactly why I love this channel. Thank you for all you do Derek.
Derek u and your family never fail to put a smile on my face y’all r doing gods work. Your gunna raise some good young men.
Lmao. 'it smells like history passed gas'. That line cracked me right up. I'm saving that one for special occasions. Good on you Derek and family for doing great work for the Charity. Kids remember this for a lifetime!
I barely had this episode one for 5.974 seconds and I was just about in tears at your kindness and generosity....... you are an amazing person
Nothing like sharing with kids with special needs, they are so grateful for everything.
let's be honest, the kid having the most fun was Derek! Happy Holidays to you and your amazing family.
I think your statement unintentionally cheapens what Derek and his family put into this, he prepared and brought two cars, fuel, his family, arranged another driver, donated money to the cause and made sure other peoples kids had a great time before his own.
Sure family time was squeezed in but suggesting Derek and his family did this for himself is a little cheap. I am not saying they did not get anything out of it as I am sure they all felt a lot of pride and felt rewarded for being able to do it but credit where credit is due! The whole family and everyone else there that day put in far more effort than 90% of people out there with fast cars would have done (Unless Sponsors were involved).
@@stevet647 i didn't mean it like that at all. everything they put into this event was incredible. i was just kidding around about the giant grin on Derek's face as he carted everyone around on the track.
It's great to see you playing nice with the other kids! 🤓
Seriously, you're awesome! Emily is awesome! Everyone there deserves a medal of honor!
That first kid you took was brilliant!😁 “It smells like history passed gas in here”😂
Could the smiles on the kids faces get any bigger !!! Terrific job Derek.. Take a merit mark AND a gold star !
You guys are awsome. Would be nice to find something like this in the Northeast. We have a daughter with Spina Bifida and another with Autism
Keep up the good work guys, your hearts are full of love and joy.
I hope you never fall into the hype that being more “commercialized” is better. We watch you because you are “real life.” Your channel is perfect just like it is. ✨👍
You and your family are truly HERO’S! Thank you for all you guys do! Can not wait to some day run into you and shake your hand! ❤️
Y’all are such good and kind people to take the time to do this. It does my heart good. Merry Christmas and don’t ever change.
Thank you for giving back, these kids have tough lives, and an experience like this could be life changing for them. Thank you and your family for your compassion.
I am speechless, my son is autistic, very high functioning but he would have loved this!!
I can’t say enough about you and Jessica your family and what you give
Back you folks are amazing
Merry Christmas and again thank you
Merry Christmas to you and your whole family, Derek.
Thank you for brightening up our year with awesome and entertaining VGG content.
So fun. 👍🏻 One thing I’ve always said to Nathaniel was to appreciate those who have helped you, and when able, give back to someone else in need. To participate in this next year would absolutely rock his world and open his eyes to just how much this means to those kids. ☺️
Merry Christmas to you and yours Derek. I'm very proud of the direction you've taken this channel.
Special shout out to Jessica. Fellers got himself the ultimate going-to-town companion and we ain’t kiddin’. Kudos to you and all you do. This is well and truly a family production and it’s the best. From my family to yours, best of the season to you!
So noble of you to do things like this for kids in need. Shows you have a good heart. And the museum looked awesome. Wish I could ever visit it.
I’ll be Look for a new shirt in the VGG store “it smells like history pass gas” special charity edition.
Man everything you do to give back is just amazing. Seeing the smiles on the kids faces while y’all were riding around the track. Wishing a very merry Christmas to you and Jessica and the boys.
You never cease to amaze a fella. You got one of them good hearts. Derek. And you bring Em along for the fun of it. Her and Arron got a couple of them good hearts too. Thanks for takin us along inside the museum. That just got put on a feller's bucket list. Merry Christmas from my family to both, the VGG and Flying Sparks families. As well as anyone who reads this comment. Let's hope for a Happy and prosperous New Year for all.
That is an incredible facility ! Very glad you got to experience it. You are so right about a person needing two days to go through the museum ! Don't know if you saw it or not, they actually have a steam powered motorcycle in there, circa 1908 I believe. Hope the kids liked it.
Derek Bieri is literally the nicest, most sincere, honest as they come human being. Loved all the content but this is something that hits home and makes me appreciate this fella 3000 fold. Just someone who does what he does because he can. Making differences in lives is the best part of it, and he does it in spades. Never gonna stop watching his stuff ever, wear my VGG hat with the utmost pride!
Just awesome! Thats all a feller needs to say about this charity event. Merry Christmas VGG family🤙🏻
this warmed my heart to see this. I am so happy to have caught this and to know this event exists. I plan to donate to the foundation and think it is AWESOME that your channel is a part of these cool things. Derek and his family are so freaking cool i absolutely love this channel! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
“It smells like history passed gas.” What a great quote! 🤣
Best ever and accurate.
The first kid you gave a ride to just put a big smile on my face!!!!!
The museum with all the bikes and cars was impressive to say the least, but what you and Emily did for those youngster surpasses anything the museum had to offer. You two put a memory in those young lives that I doubt they will ever forget. Good on you both.
Thank you so much for doing this Derek, those kids will remember that day and your kindness forever. As a support worker, I work with adults with autism and they never lose that honesty and innocence that those kids have. Although it can be a challenge sometimes, that's far outweighed by the amount of joy, fun and sense of well being that they give to us. Peace and love to you and yours fella.
Keep up the great work derrick you are changing a lot of people's lives for the better personally thank you for being you
Merry Christmas 🎄 Y'all we're literally 4 miles from my house. Awesome to see the work a guy does for charity as well as promoting Barbers.
The only words that come to mind about that museum is mind-boggling sensory overload! You're absolutely correct, it is a destination to be enjoyed over a couple days! Bring your comfortable walking shoes. It's great that y'all donate your time and vehicles to special needs children, their smiles brighten your days! Thank you!
My dad had a 79 Yamahammer 650 special. It was his pride and joy. When I toured the Barber collection, Miguel Duhamel's Daytona winner was my favorite.
gosh i could watch this so many times, the smiles on the kids faces just is totally worth everything
By far the best channel on youtube! You give so much to your viewers and give back so much to the community - amazing work. Have a great Holiday season and here's to 2022!!
Merry Christmas to the entire VGG family! Derek you and your family are doing great things. Your really giving youngsters something to look up to in this world and the best part is that yall did it just by being yourselves. God Bless You all!
You and your family are good people, Derek. No two words about it.
And so is Emily, no question!
You are the best car show online and it's because of things like this. You let your heart show. Your touch to your wife's face as her ride on the wet track began and your interactions with your boys are just the kind of things that people need to see in action. I bet you are touching and teaching more hearts out there than you will ever know. God Bless you and your family.
Thank you Derek and your family for giving back like y’all do. You’re an inspiration to us all.
You're a nice guy, Derek, with a real nice family. I'm so happy that I get to go along on these journeys. Thank you. Merry Christmas to you and your family, and all the best to you all in the New Year. Just, awesome!
I can’t believe I just found this channel a couple weeks ago, already my favorite channel. Love what you did for the kids. Hope to see you on the road sometime in a clunker, in PA. Keep going and I’ll keep watching. Merry Christmas
That rain came right threw my screen and hit a guy in the peepers. Thank you for caring and sharing! Best channel on UA-cam!
I like how a guy keeps giving back to the community. He has a heart of gold.
You’re such a good bloke Derek for doing this for the kids, well done you. Merry Christmas to you and your family. All the best for the future
Merry Christmas to Derek and the family! One of my absolute favorite UA-cam channels, not only for the entertainment but for how much y’all give back. Have a happy holidays everyone! ❤️
Thank you VGG for helping the kids that really warmed my heart this Christmas morning. Merry Christmas to the whole VGG family 🎄⛄
Not only is your heart big, you dang wear it in the best place. You're doing great stuff in so many ways. Thank you for everything that you do.
One of my boys has autism and you sir are a kind feller! We need more of you in the world!👍💚👌
You guys are amazing!
Changing lives every day already and then this!
Merry Christmas Derek, Jessica and kids!!! 🤙🏻🎄🍻
"This thing smells like history passed gas!" LOL!! That's gotta be the best line i heard! Wonderful video. Hope you have a great Holiday season! MERRY CHRISTMAS @🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅
Damn, I wish I had that first kids positivity. “I can handle anything!” Super positive video man, good on ya! Cheers to you and your fam, good people doing good things.
This is one of your best shows ever. You should do one more like this more often. It even made me cry. Thank you.
Derek sir your wife and children make your show complete.... your lady is drop dead gorgeous and your children are always quiet and very respectful and willing to work.... thats great parenting sir!!!! congrats.... have a blessed day
