Dean Dobbs, you turned into Morty
Dean Dobbs what's it like in the pipe?
Morgan Hobbs I won't tamper with Bertie's lore but I will agree that it is lovely here.
Dean Dobbs Dean why'd you dab-
Okay but imagine a Bertie Gilbert feature film based on Savannah's future novel!

Hoshiko Holy shit
Hoshiko YES YES YES YES YES
YEYSYETSYEYEYSYES
OMG I'd probably be the first one in line to buy the tickets lol😄
Dude, you're the same age as me and you've already achieved a metric fuck tonne of things with all these amazing films you've done. Don't be sad about getting old, think what you can do next!
Lewis Darley this is literally the first thing that came to my mind when I got the notification like holly fuck he's only twenty. amazing talent and growing!
was this a real person
amen dude this guy is insane
"His tombstone was bigger than I remembered." That ending was an absolute gut-punch. Love it
ok but I honestly thought you were like 25
I'm gonna be 20 this year and I feel like such a child
dammit
me too...
Same
im guessing post apocalyptic Bertie is called
Dirty Gilbert
also a good name if you ever wanted to become a porn star
bless you,
Is there a video that explains the post apocalyptic stuff?
You had a missed opportunity to say 'Dirty Bertie'
I'm up for a Bertie and Dean podcast now that you've showed us what it could sound like! :)
Bertie: idk what to say
Bertie: knocks it out the park and gives inspirational in depth speech
Me: I want to be like Bertie when I grow up.
Oh. Bertie's like six months older than me?
Ok.
Carver Bain honestly same
WHY ARE YOU GROWING UP SO FAST YESTERDAY YOU WERE 16
damn I didn't even know he was going to use that video in which he is 16 this gives so many flashbacks
That comment describes me well, today I turned 17 😂
Joshua Eva happy birthday!!!
Joshua Eva Happy Birthday
YOU'RE GROWING UP TOO, MATE
i just love how bertie films. i lov ehow he puts together these small monologues and chats and snippets of his life into a colorful, tragically cheerful film. I love the colors, the music, the gags and the 3am philosophy he spills in these vlogs. it´s amazing how with everything bertie makes, i feel like i´ve learned something i´ve yet to understand completely. i have no idea if i'm making sense so bertie, if you read this, i´m so damn glad you're making and sharing stuff. it's wonderful.
Wait what? You're only 20? We're the same age and haven't done anything with my life, I feel like such a loser. You're amazing, don't be too hard on yourself. Welcome to official adulthood, allow yourself to grow, but at the same time try to keep your teenage spirit. Love you!
Hoshiko you're not a loser 💓
dean i'd just like to let you know that they're building a nursing home where that pub that's been knocked down used to be
Bertie is one of the most creatively genius people in the world
ItsOnlyChloe truly 💞
Jesus Christ I completely forgot you were only a teenager. The stuff that you make is on another level to almost everything else on this platform. I watch one of your short films and it honestly takes me a while before I can go back to watch another vlog or gaming video because I don't think that it is worthy of following such an incredible piece of art. The fact that your working on things even better than those boggles my mind because I'm not sure how much better you can get.
todroyas amen?!?!? like hes a freaking insane genius i can never meet up to where hes at yet hes so young and smart?!?!?!
I'm waiting for ten years from now
*_BERTIE IS THIRTY_*
Dense, dense boy
Hatacat dense booooiiiiii
That bit where you're talking with Dean really fuck me up. It's so true. Also "who stay friends with the same people their entire life" make me do a little cry
His last sentence about his dad's tombstone made me feel really sentimental even though I can't really wrap my head around what it meant, theories anyone ???
Lauren Menzies he probably feels his dad's impact in his life more than ever now that he's 20? just, the connection between him and his dad. bert is very aware of his own mortality, and maybe a part of him feels the need for that connection. or maybe bert misses his dad more now?
I remember watching this when it came out and thinking 20 was impossibly old, but I'm back here again after turning 20. Bertie's creative stagnancy really hits home
Didn't remember commenting on this. Wow time flies.
*bertie uploads vlog*
me: [skin clears up] [water tastes better] [brand new person filled with optimism and positive energy]
Bertie, I love your style. Most other UA-camrs would have made a quick 5 minute video called "I REACT TO MY 16 YEAR OLD SELF!!!" and they would just be blankly talking in a camera and not giving a damn, but you are special. You took so much time with amazing editing and putting meaning and power into your words and thats what I love about you. I found your youtube channel about a year ago, as I was a huge horrible histories fan, and stumbled across your films, and you have become my inspiration. I don't want to sound soppy and dramatic (although, that's what i am), but your work is amazing and I wish you well for your future films and everything. I hope to meet you one day, because I absolutely adore your films and everything.
Me: *stares in awe at the opening credits*
Bertie: "I'm worried my work isn't good enough"
This is uploaded just as I'm in serious need of inspiration so it BETTER BE GOOD
Yeah, okay. I can go make stuff now I guess.
the cinematography in this is beautiful
This was really lovely :)
Evan Edinger THANK YOU EVAN!
these are always so relaxing
When dean said he felt lonely I almost cried, he is the nicest person I've ever looked up to. Damn.
I've been watching you since you were 16. I'm now 16 (don't judge 12 year old me for watching UA-cam) and that's just weird because it doesn't feel like that long but it really is
it ruins me whenever i think that bertie is only 4 years older than me and he's already accomplished so much.
i love how you had the two berties and made them opposites: the optimistic vs. the pessimistic. i also love how beautiful these vlogs visually and how they really make you think like almost all good stuff should
I am 43 and I think you're an incredible film maker. I'm surprised you're only 20. You should be so proud of yourself. I'm sure when you're my age you'll wonder why you were so self critical. ❤
you're just 2 years older than me but you're the type of person i'd like to be when "i grow up". your art is simply THE best
this made me cry - you brought forward so many thoughts and feelings that I didn't even know I had; and, as a younger person, a late teenager, it makes me just that little bit more confident to see that you can go forward so positively and thoughtfully in your older life. growing up does, and will continue to, terrify me, but it helps to know that you can find some peace in doing so. thank you for sharing your thoughts, Bertie; may your first year as a no-longer-teen be full of love and understanding ❤
Thanks for putting my thoughts into words :) I can just really relate to your comment. Greetings, a fellow terrified late teenager.
juso 8 not a problem; greetings to you also my friend 😊
you mean fren, amirite? ;) |-/
juso 8 omd yes fren 😄 |-/
keep an eye on this one. he's gonna be a superstar.
the ending made me cry. your art is incredible. your father's cemetery is beautiful. it's been 14 years, so i don't know if i should say sorry for your loss?, but i guess that's not the point. your films, no matter how small, are truly inspirational.
I keep on coming back to this video. I’m turning 20 soon and the world continues to terrify me and I’m afraid I can’t run away to the pipes, but somehow this calms me. The world won’t be bad forever. I won’t be doing bad forever.
I know what you mean about things felling smaller, specifically places for me. I'd put it down to a sense of mystery - I remember when I was younger I could explore places with apprehension and excitement at where I might end up, and so everywhere around me felt vast and intriguing. Now if I visit those same places, I know where every road leads. I can walk the same path I once did but I can never evoke the sense of wonder I had the first time I went down it. I guess nostalgia is a very bittersweet feeling.
Pashizzle500 this is amazing
Pashizzle500 very true! ...
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG
same though
happy birthday Mr Gilbert
i wasn't prepared for such an emotionally charged ending. well done. i loved it.
as someone who is currently 16, this video is terrifying but also oddly inspiring. i'm starting to realize that you really don't know where anything is going to lead, that these phases of your life are so brief. the future is so terrifyingly vast and unknown, like stepping out into complete nothingness, and you're just expected to know where you want to go in that void and how to find it. listening to your perspective and your story, a perspective that doesn't paint growing up as all roses and sunshine all the time, is so comforting and reassuring, but this is also such a reassuring reminder that adulthood isn't all seriousness and doom and gloom, stuck n one place, paying taxes, holding a job that you hate. it is just a chance for more opportunity and independence. change is an intimidating prospect - knowing that my world, my mind, my opinions, my expectations, my goals are going to change so drastically in such a short amount of time is so scary, but i've learned that it's really something that you must embrace. it is important, and growth is so important. knowing yourself and your values and what you love, and using these things as a support system is something i've learned to be so helpful, and so very important. thank you for sharing all of this - somehow the uncertainty of my life an the vastness of the world seems slightly less lonely when i know that people that i can relate and connect to somehow feel the same, and live successful lives. thank you.
(also fox academy!!!! yes mate!!!)
My mom passed away in 2011, and for a long time I didn't visit her grave at all but recently I've found myself grasping for the parts of her I can't quite remember. The end of this vlog left me with something big. Thank you, very much
I feel the same way man. Especially the "I feel like I'm not good enough [at what I do]" part
But it's not necessarily always the things you remember changing....it's your perception of those things that's changes
"His tombstone was bigger than I remembered." goodness gracious i'll probably keep repeating that last part because that was so freaking poetic and beautiful and aaaaaaaaaah
Completely not the point your trying to make but I dig your wardrobe theme atm
It’s been years and yet I still always think of this video. The ending always pops up in my head and it’s crazy how much of an impact it had on me. It’s just so so good.
this is something special
that last bit. it just fucking got me. bless you Bertie
this is making me think about things and its 1am and i cant deal with all the feelings im having.
This is the highest quality log I've ever seen
The ending made me feel so calm. Like the feeling of I just realizing something amazing or took a giant gulp of fresh air in the mourning
also, how on earth did you get your phone's microphone recording to sound like a studio recording
ludovic I need to know
The Zoom H1 is magical, my friend.
He dubbed his narration. Or maybe his phone is playing the recording and he's lip syncing.
Famous directors don't have such a creative background as you. You're gonna grow to make amazing movies boi
Is it possible to love Bertie more?
This series is so rich. Soulful and full of long strokes of sensory feasting. Nothing is rushed. But nothing is milked. Bertie you are so full of art, I so look forward to watching that art evolve
Bertie, you're about a year younger than me & every time I need inspiration I come back to your videos because they're so much bigger than anything I could ever create, please remember that you're an inspiration to so many & that the next great adventure is just around the corner.
I still watch/listen to this every now and then, and it's one of the constant things that reminds me to be extra proud of myself, and the people I'm growing with in this journey. Shared this to someone close and here I am watching it again now, in my little corner of the world. My heart is grateful.
If the audio could be on SoundCloud, I'd listen to it everyday. This is beautiful and all too true. By the end I was crying. I've watched it a couple times already and wow. Life's been rough lately and the storm doesn't really seem to be passing, but this video, truthfully all of your work, seems to put everything into a different perspective. It's like everything I'm thinking or some version of pain I'm feeling, is turned into an actual coherent voice, and obviously it doesn't make everything better, but it still reminds me that, I'm not the only one going through shit.
You're incredibly talented Bertie, sometimes you might not think so, but you are. Please, never stop creating.
I've never watched before but...this is exactly what I want to do with my life. The filming is so beautiful. Thank you.
and now i feel all cosy and nostalgic 💜🙌
Even your vlogs are so incredibly powerful and moving. I'm in love with how you do them by month, there's so much effort and passion fed into them and I cannot thank you enough for inspiring me and everyone else here, I'm sure, to do what we love.
I've been trying to suppress these feelings and thoughts to avoid sadness and panic, but this is so stunning and its captured both the worries and counteractive thoughts with such quality, I'm now really glad you got me thinking about change and growth. Heart warming piece.
the bird chirping made me cry yes :')
I just wrote a paper for school on Nostalgia (longing for old times more than places in my case) and your video fits right into it I swear.
I also have a really weird feeling bc when I started watching youtube, i was like 12,13 and the you tubers were 20+ now I am 17, I have friends that are 20 and I watch you tubers that are around my age and thats so weird for me. but it also makes me rly happy to see what we all can create. we can create deep, passionate, thoughtful stuff already, we don't have to be 50+ for that.
soz my comments are always just some messy pouring out of thoughts
thx for making the vid:) have a great day!
been feeling pretty shitty and when i finished this, with tears in my eyes, i just thought "this is what i want to do,". i don't know if that means film or i don't know but i just want to make or do something that has a meaning like the stuff bertie makes and can have the effect on people that this had on me. i loved this a lot, bertie.
this is just a bit bloody lovely bertie xxx
This video made my creative juices start flowing again. Thanks Bertie :)
cant believe i stuck around for 6 years here. you're a good person Bert
Good Lord, I haven't watched Bertie since around 2009 and I am so impressed with the direction he's gone in. He used to be a goofy kid who made vlogs in his bedroom, and this is amazing progress!
The grim apocalyptic future of 20 years old Bertie has finally come true in 2020
Beautiful
I started watching Bertie so long ago it's amazing to come back to his channel to see how far he's gone and how much he's achieved
This is so beautiful I find it hard putting it to words.
i'm turning 20 in a few months and i can relate to this video on many levels. but i'm still trying to figure out what the heck i wanna do with my life while you have found your passion and you're incredibly talented at it! so keep on doing that. the end hit hard though. so sorry for your loss.
Still come back to this every few months, it's such a lovely reflective corner of online x
this video is beyond my vocabulary, its so visually pleasing, educational, and comforting all at once. my teenage brain thanks you.
This is probably one of the most beautiful pieces of film I have ever seen. You're doing an amazing job Bertie!
when I watch these vlogs they're the only thing that I pay attention to. so you have my attention and time, Bertie. I love these so much. I hope you keep making them as long as you enjoy it. happy birthday.
went from not having an ending to having an amazing one
I LOOOOOOVE your videos Bertie!!!!
"I'm not done yet...I'm still cooking" WAS THAT A DOCTOR WHO REFERENCE
I'm 20 myself and this is the most relatable thing I have ever seen / heard / experienced
And now I'm crying Boy o boy did the last part get to meeeeeeeeeeee
i never seen the beautiful videos on UA-cam like this
The part with Dean was so important. I needed that so bad.
my heart stopped there for a minute when 'perfect shirt' was playing omg
everything bertie gilbert does is instantly art. it's amazing!
absolutely stunning
as an american "thicco" and "dense boy" are my favorite phrases on earth now
Your recent blog series is so well done. Just such a high production value, the content is so thought out!
As someone who is about to turn 20, the feelings you capture in this video resonate pretty damn deeply and you express them so clearly and beautifully, this was great :)
Coming back to watch this for the third time, just wanted to say this is still the most inspirational, lovely, poignant piece of art I've seen in a long time.
among the haze of puke and pain of being sick this brightened my day with how funny and beautiful it was. thank you
THE BERTIE MAGIC HAS RETURNED AND ITS MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN EVER THANK YOU FOR THE WONDERFUL GIFT FILLED WITH FANTASTIC EDITING AND GORGEOUS CINEMATOGRAPHY I LOVE TO OBSERVE THE WILD BERTIE IN HIS NATURAL HABITAT, A RANDOM TREE THAT GOES PERFECTLY WITH HIS AESTHETIC WHAT MORE COULD I ASK FOR - A WILD PHILOSOPHICAL BERTIE, A SPECTACULAR SAV, AND ANOTHER PLOT LINE THAT HAS ME SHOOK AND THINKIN SOME REALLY DEEP RETROSPECTIVE SHIT . I LOVE IT.
My heart feels so heavy, I've just made the decision to change my major toward digital media which means I'll be learning about film, production, and all that jazz. I've felt so overwhelmed and exhausted by all it takes to get to that point and I've felt like this is a mistake and I just won't be able to reach that dream of being a filmmaker in this lifetime. But this has just made me feel so much more valid for the way I'm feeling. I'm so inspired by this I'm so inspired to continue to create my art, you have no idea how grateful I am for this video.
Holy shit. I will never grow tired of this level of introspection and truth. A piece made of pure magic, didn't even realise I was holding my breath until the frame went black. Thank you x
Holy shit this is so amazing. I have missed daily Bertie and I'm glad Dodie brought me back to one of my all-time favourites xx
