Yes: I remember those times. I use to ride past it on my motorbike on my way to Devon or Cornwall and sometimes use to stop and walk round Stonehenge - no problem. People back then seem to have more respect for things - no more!
My brother,a pal and I slept the night on top of the stones while rambling across Salisbury plains back in about 1988-89,we left all our gear on the ground and roped up there with just our bed rolls,smoke and beer😊,,back then all that kept you from them was a rope strung around a ring of metal spikes banged in the ground a couple of meters away from the stones about waist height . The English heritage guy(who was irish) in charge of the site that night noticed us at first light and woke us.Once he ascertained that we were just hikers and had just gone up there to kip and hadn't done any damage,which we were very careful not to,he was cool about the whole thing,he confessed to wanting to climb them himself from Time to time and even made us a cuppa before we set off.
I live in rural Scotland and know somebody it actually happened to; they didn't expect a cream tea but they did just walk around inside the cottage admiring it and talking about how they were Scottish and their family probably lived there once 🙄 Luckily this is Scotland so they were made welcome and invited to stay for tea, which they did.
When I was a boy, you could touch the stones at Stonehenge, walk right up to the PrimeMinster's front door and chat to the solitary police man - now it's fenced off and the police carry machine guns!!! Does anyone think the world is a better place today ??.. Politicians - clearly just out to protect their own interests - it stands out a mile.!! I don't know how they get away with it.???

When i worked in Whitehall I was once physically grabbed by an American: “Say Bud, where’s a good place to eat?” I’m pleased to say I came up with the answer: “I believe Paris is nice…” At this point he let go of my suit lapels and turned round to his group “he says Paris is nice”… Off they waddled to Trafalgar Square.

2 things about Buckingham Palace. Firstly, there are times you can go inside. You just have to, shock horror!, look for the pertinent information. 2nd, it is one of the primary residences of a nation's Head of State. Perhaps they'd like to try and stroll into the White House whenever they'd like?! As with the Palace, the White House does permit public tours. Though touring Buckingham Palace is a much simpler process. However, in both cases it involves some kind of advance planning! Morons.
You CAN go into Buckingham Palace, but you need to make an advance booking. My findings with most American tourists is they've made little or no research or preparations. They want everything to "fall in line and stand to attention" as soon as they arrive.!!!
Sydney Opera House! American - 'oh that's too many stairs, just take our photos out front"! Russian - "look at that incredible architecture, those window views are truly amazing and it's extraordinary orchestral acoustics"! 🧐
There are no rocks of the same composition anywhere near Stonehenge. They've been traced to somewhere in or near Wales , so the added mystery is how they were transported there even before you question how the rocks were placed on top of each other.
@@warrengdayI mean not really. Pulleys and ropes have existed for thousands of years, and along with manpower that's all it really takes. The mystery isn't so much how they did it (though some people are interested in narrowing down the exact method) but more why they went through all that effort. Chances are it was just that they wanted to have the most baller rocks in the area, but it's not been 100% established.
There are other varied circled stone sites around the world, intended for celebrating the summer and winter solstice! It's shouldn't be how heavy they are but why they are right there!
The Eiffel Tower: “It was for the 1889 Exposition Universelle, the date that marked the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, that a great competition was launched in 1886. The first digging work started on the 26th January 1887. On the 31st March 1889, the Tower had been finished in record time - 2 years, 2 months and 5 days - and was established as a veritable technical feat.” It was intended to be a temporary structure that would be dismantled in twenty years, however the people petitioned to keep it. Eiffel’s design was so well constructed that it has stood for 135 years and still standing strong. There’s a movie about its construction that’s well worth watching.
Most people drink milk in tea, it’s only those who don’t like or have a dairy intolerance that don’t have milk in their tea. Heck, even the Indians who grow tea for the world, they add milk to tea! The US needs to be taught about proper tea, not this cold sugary stuff they buy! That’s not real tea.
Not sure where you got that "fact" but indians are the most lactose intolerant people on the planet. Its way more common to drink your tea without milk
It is possible to visit Buckingham palace during some months when it is allowed to do so, just paying the ticket. No photos allowed inside but it is ok for garden and outside areas
I don't think Americans see anything when they go abroad in their bubble. Or they only see differences with what they have back home. "Shall we go to Disneyland or go to Europe? Toss a coin".
When I was in Istanbul and visiting the Blue Mosque a group of Americans, dressed in caps and plaid golf pants, complained that it wasn't a "real" church.
I worked with visitors at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney and Yes , the American tourists were different to say the least. Loud, arrogant and also had to be spoonfed directions and other information.
The guy complaining about rain in Spain haS probably believed on the phrase "The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain," which is a line from the musical "My Fair Lady" and is used as a tongue twister for Eliza Doolittle to practice pronunciation of the "ai" sound. Obviously it is not geographically accurate about where rain falls in Spain. 😂😂😂
Parts of Buckingham Palace are indeed open to the public during summer months (May to September) with a limited number of guided tours at other times..... But it's a home and a place of work for the monarch, not an 'attraction' designed for tourists. If you are in London you might want to stand outside it, but it doesn't promise to be something it's not. Sadly one or two of those were definitely British- so the US doesn't have a monopoly on stupid tourists!
The same point again arises from "no beach in London". No planning, no preparation, no research, nothing.! Does New York have a beach ? And Madrid in Spain, Paris in France, etc.etc.?
There is a beach in London when the tide is out. Because the Thames is connected to the North Sea, each day it is affected by two low tides and two high tides. Thanks to this non-stop movement of the water, the sediment is continuously suspended in the water column giving it its trademark brown colour.
Actually there is a beach in London. It’s about 100 metres long and on the Thames just below the Tower Of London. I played on it a few times as a kid in the 60’s. However it was closed off later because of the pollution. If you watch the movie ‘Battle of Britain’ there’s a clip of a few kids playing on it.
The ones that can't be bothered to look things up before they go to places are probably the ones that use the internet for circulating selfies, pictures of food and unsubstantiated rumours. They should probably be discouraged from procreation.

6:50 The problem is not really the size of the portrait (very standard for the time) but the 2 facts that the (two) barriers around it makes you stand quite far and that on the two side walls you'll find very large paintings, including the gigantic "The Wedding Feast at Cana" by Paolo Veronese on the opposite wall.
Stonehenge is a complete mystery! Look at the photo and that single tower has a pointy part sticking up. That pointy bit sits into the hollow of the crossbeam to keep it stable. No one in history has ever recorded anything about them, because they existed long before such information was kept. So no one knows how they were built, why they were built and what else was around them when they were built. Clearly they were built by man but that’s all we know! Think about a pre-historic time when men were constructing Stonehenge! Now ask yourself what purpose did it serve? Who used it? Was it a place of worship or a residence?
The Mona Lisa was stolen on August 21, 1911 from the Louvre Museum in Paris. The thief, Vincenzo Peruggia, was an Italian handyman and former Louvre employee who managed to hide in a storeroom overnight and take the painting the next morning. It was an audacious heist that made the Mona Lisa famous. Before the theft it wasn't thought to be particularly noteworthy.
While working on a cruise ship traveling scandinavia, some americans complained that there where no vikings or tours to the "viking reservations" offered ... as if they where packed away like natives in america.
Aussies say swimming costume...cozzie...but I don't think we'd be that dumb. I got to be close to Stonehenge in 1984. You sound so much like an Aussie in this video lol
This reminds me of an episode of “To the Manor Born”, where Richard thought Audrey may have stolen & sold an almost-priceless Egyptian vase, only to find his mother had used it in an amateur theatre production. “It was so eerie, watching it roll around the floor after the actor drops it.” “Mother, it’s over 2,000 years old!” “So it isn’t even new. Why are you so upset?”
Imagin you self as a celebrity on a cruise ship, every time you step out of your room, you are going to take pictures and write autograph most of the time. I do know that meny celebity enjoy to get recognized, but it does not sound like a relaxing vication for a celebrity hehe. To be traped on a ship, without eny possible way to get off
You used to be able go up to and around Stonehenge, before tourists started desecrating them 🤬 Perhaps that is what the guy wanted to do, scratch his initials on them!🙄
To be fair I have heard the Mona Lisa is surprisingly small comment before, there are so many visitors crowded around it that its often hard to see over their heads and it is quite small for a famous painting when you are used to full body portraits. The second most famous painting in Europe, The Night Watch is hardly small...
Dover has a small beach, too. I saw it from a ferry. The most impressive thing was the great white wall you‘re shipping to. It was really beautiful to see this. I thought, how must the people felt, when they saw this wall.
@@JasminMernica They think: "free 5* heated and catered hotels, free 'benefits' money, mobile phones, no work or conscription, plenty of underage white girls to molest. woohoo!"
There are small group tours you can buy where a guide takes you up close to the stones but it is forbidden to touch them. It never used to be like that but a few idiots led to the stones having to be protected.
I agree with the Stonehenge one , they could at least build a Flinstones themed theme park at such a significant stone age monument , and a waterpark ( bring swimsuit ! ) and then some Wendy's and KFC's right ?! #sarcasm
You cracked me up with the Stonehenge commentary😂. The rocks supposedly came from many miles away, a different country in fact. How did they move them back then?
You can still get inside the stones at Stonehenge, but only if you apply to with your reason, and go outside visitor times. As a young teen when I went there were no restrictions at all. Loving the fact that it’s now been discovered not only do the ‘blue’ stones come from Wales, but the altar came from the Scottish islands. Not bad for around 5,000 years ago…..
Buckingham Palace has been under extensive renovations for about five years,and it will be at least another 8 , so we’ve been told. You can go inside ,and round the extensive gardens.
Years ago I went to Stonehenge, I could walk among the stones. Apparently, tourists wanted pieces of it and would chip pieces off - hence tourists can no long go near the stones. Buckingham Palace is open for tours when the Queen is not in residence (she of course has died, but the same applies to King Charles III).
0:38 No milk in tea would be a typical British complaint. 7:14 Naming your cruises "celebrity" could be called Clickbaiting, creating false expectations. 8:34 The Belgian Royal Palace can be visited during summer and the Royal Greenhouses during spring. The British Royal family is "greedy". But you can still visit at least one of their other residences , Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh. 9:48 Basically the Eiffel Tower is just a pile of rusted metal. As are French cars after a few years on the road. 12:32 I guess that at low tide there are some some small patches of beach along the River Thames in London. If it is actually pleasant to go there for sunbathing is another question.
6:10😅 My Sci Fi theory: the woman is a time traveller. She went back in time to see the creation of the masterpiece. But when she arrived, discovered no one was commissioning it. So, commissioned the picture and modeled, knowing she's become History.
The Stonehenge one is so weird. Yes, it's a "bunch of rocks" and to some people it's nothing interesting, but how you don't know what it is before travelling there? It's really famous and I assume these people have internet access.
I was disappointed in the Mona Lisa, there are far more beautiful paintings in the louve to look at 😅 It should also be noted I believe the painting on display isnt original its a copy for security reasons.
Stating ""it's just a bunch of rocks" is not sarcasm 😂😂 However saying "Wow ! What an an AMAZING bunch of rocks!! 🧐😏🙄" Is sarcasm. By this one thing alone I can guess this was an American, famous for not understanding sarcasm even in its basic form 😅 Also, rocks don't come in bunches, but I know Americans use the word bunch , a whole bunch 😝

@@josteingravvik2381 Cool !! :) !!
@@josteingravvik2381 yeah still means queen was too greedy to let you in to more rooms . :) sorry i could not resist .
@@richardhrubes4585 😅🤣😂
Heads up for Americans. The Mona Lisa is not painted on canvas. Its painted on wood.
That’s like saying that Niagra Falls is just a drop from one level to a lower level and water runs over it!
US sites of sightseeing is like a statue of the “biggest doughnut” etc.. no history to talk about really.
2004. I admit to having a meltdown in California after ordering a cup of tea. How many ways could they get it wrong?
STONEhenge is a bunch of ROCKS!!! No way!!! 🤣🤣🤣
To be fair I have heard the Mona Lisa is surprisingly small comment before, there are so many visitors crowded around it that its often hard to see over their heads and it is quite small for a famous painting when you are used to full body portraits. The second most famous painting in Europe, The Night Watch is hardly small...
12 x 14.5 feet plus the smaller copy. It's impressively large.
There is a beach in London, where the Romans originaly landed from the Thames. In fact, there are a few other beaches too.
Dover has a small beach, too. I saw it from a ferry. The most impressive thing was the great white wall you‘re shipping to. It was really beautiful to see this. I thought, how must the people felt, when they saw this wall.
@@JasminMernica They think: "free 5* heated and catered hotels, free 'benefits' money, mobile phones, no work or conscription, plenty of underage white girls to molest. woohoo!"
Stonehenge has a path around the outside, so you are about 15 metres away.
There are small group tours you can buy where a guide takes you up close to the stones but it is forbidden to touch them. It never used to be like that but a few idiots led to the stones having to be protected.
Oh my God! Who stole the beach from London? Please bring it back, I'm going there next month 🙏
🙋♀️🇬🇧
I agree with the Stonehenge one , they could at least build a Flinstones themed theme park at such a significant stone age monument , and a waterpark ( bring swimsuit ! ) and then some Wendy's and KFC's right ?! #sarcasm
no.
You cracked me up with the Stonehenge commentary😂. The rocks supposedly came from many miles away, a different country in fact. How did they move them back then?
Unfortunately the Stonehenge reviewer was written by a Brit. We have clueless people here too😂
No Brit would say a bunch of rocks ...
I think most of them are trolls, i cannot believe someone would think in Spain never rains. Even in deserts it rains, rarely but it does.
You can still get inside the stones at Stonehenge, but only if you apply to with your reason, and go outside visitor times. As a young teen when I went there were no restrictions at all. Loving the fact that it’s now been discovered not only do the ‘blue’ stones come from Wales, but the altar came from the Scottish islands. Not bad for around 5,000 years ago…..
Like, honestly... Mona Lisa is quite small. I was surprised by how small the painting was, too. But the rest... Ufff.
To be honest us Brits say swimming costume (women mainly) 😂
We do in Tasmania too!
@@jenniferharrison8915and NSW!
And Aussies...also cozzie
@@Fiona-zc6oz 😂😂 yes! Forgot the cozzy
@@Thee_Penguin That's more Queensland!
The Great Wall wasn't a review from an American.
Most likley Karl Pilkinton 😅
His review was very enlightening and bloody hilarious! 😁
@@jenniferharrison8915 One of the funniest people in the world 😄
@@danurban9591 His humour is really appreciated, whether it's intentional or not his reactions are so funny! 🤗
The Mona Lisa is NOT a fictional character, lol.
" soundproof against the sound of the ocean "
Buckingham Palace has been under extensive renovations for about five years,and it will be at least another 8 , so we’ve been told. You can go inside ,and round the extensive gardens.
Years ago I went to Stonehenge, I could walk among the stones. Apparently, tourists wanted pieces of it and would chip pieces off - hence tourists can no long go near the stones. Buckingham Palace is open for tours when the Queen is not in residence (she of course has died, but the same applies to King Charles III).
My one bedroom London flat only has room for one bed. It's a disgrace!😂
To many people carved their names in the stones, so walking up was stopped a few decades back
You can go in Buckingham Palace
It's mainly in the plain in Spain though, so just stear clear of the plains.
0:38 No milk in tea would be a typical British complaint.
7:14 Naming your cruises "celebrity" could be called Clickbaiting, creating false expectations.
8:34 The Belgian Royal Palace can be visited during summer and the Royal Greenhouses during spring. The British Royal family is "greedy". But you can still visit at least one of their other residences , Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh.
9:48 Basically the Eiffel Tower is just a pile of rusted metal. As are French cars after a few years on the road.
12:32 I guess that at low tide there are some some small patches of beach along the River Thames in London. If it is actually pleasant to go there for sunbathing is another question.
6:10😅 My Sci Fi theory: the woman is a time traveller. She went back in time to see the creation of the masterpiece. But when she arrived, discovered no one was commissioning it. So, commissioned the picture and modeled, knowing she's become History.
Ryan, you missed the best in #23 : we were mot reminded yo bring our passports…
The Stonehenge one is so weird. Yes, it's a "bunch of rocks" and to some people it's nothing interesting, but how you don't know what it is before travelling there? It's really famous and I assume these people have internet access.
I've watched a travel channel from the US.Mostly they go in to the big cities in Europe.And eat burgers and fries... .....unsub 😂
I always wanted to see it but so many things I will never see............... even if a bunch of rocks. 😂
I was disappointed in the Mona Lisa, there are far more beautiful paintings in the louve to look at 😅 It should also be noted I believe the painting on display isnt original its a copy for security reasons.
Stating ""it's just a bunch of rocks" is not sarcasm 😂😂
However saying "Wow ! What an an AMAZING bunch of rocks!! 🧐😏🙄" Is sarcasm.
By this one thing alone I can guess this was an American, famous for not understanding sarcasm even in its basic form 😅 Also, rocks don't come in bunches, but I know Americans use the word bunch , a whole bunch 😝
