Nathaniel Drew locking Jack Edwards into his flat ostensibly by accident but more than likely to force him to read books is not the content I expected from two of my favourite content creators but I'm here for it. Love both of your videos!

As a Trinidadian, I'm so happy that The Bread the Devil Knead got nominated!! I'm also so glad you enjoyed it! I hope you can do more Caribbean literature in the future, though just like The Bread the Devil Knead, creole narrative voices take a while to get used to but I hope that won't deter you from reading more Caribbean books!!
It's never made sense to me how people give credit to "the universe". Like, how does the universe know what you need? It would have to be conscious, omnipresent, omnipotent, and loving... Isn't that God? Wake up people!
This sounds like something that would happen to me. I always get locked into places randomly. The first day of college, the doorknob of the bathroom in my dorm, BROKE off in my hand. I was like, seriously??? The professor would never believe my story of getting stuck in the bathroom...there was another girl in there too and she freaked out. Luckily, I could put the handle back in and use it. I was laughing though. I had to tell the manager of the building. First day of classes....I'll never forget it....
Not a Trinidadian book captivating Jack's mind 🥹 as it should. Hopefully this is the start of a read Caribbean challenge. June is also #ReadCaribbean month 👀🤞🏽
If it was me, I would not have been able to relax thinking what if the apartment catches fire. Have I ever seen an apartment catch fire? No but that would be all I could think about,...
Yes! That you! The potential fire hazard danger from being locked in is stressing me out! I have seen apartments catch fire so that's probably just making me more stressed about it
I saw *”A Man Called Ove”* on your TBR pile and it’s the best book I’ve read this year. Not to overhype it, but the writing style paired with the subject matter and themes presented in the book were so well knitted together.
As a matter of fact, yes, I have been locked in my flat. Several times. All times by my sister. My set of keys is bent and can't unlock the door from the inside, but she is well aware of this, and does not bother to check if anybody's home.
@@thunderstorms6886 Older, as in full-blown adult, she will be 21 this year. As a solution, she suggested that I put I sign on my bedroom door, which would mean that I would have to keep track of when SHE comes and goes, instead of her simply opening my door...
I literally just watched Nathanial Drew's pt. 2 of his 'moving in' series and now I am here. You can't tell me that fate doesn't exist. I love that you two are friends omg.
Same thing happened to me a few weeks back. Got locked inside the house by my housemate who was already on her way to work. The broken knob can only be lock/unlock from the outside. What's worst was my car breaking down the same day, and I was already late for work! Thank goodness my supervisor was understanding and let me take the day off to settle things. Took the opportunity to listen to "They Both Die at the End" by Adam Silvera, and received weird stares at the workshop with my sobbing 😂
Hey Jack! I've gotten locked in my flat before too.😅The guy who distributes our newspapers accidentally locked the door latch when he was leaving the newspapers. Also,this vlog was a gift!
American Here... Kinda freaking out that it's possible to get locked IN your home. Do all locks in Europe/France function in this way? Fascinating! I've been locked out but never locked in.
Out of curiosity, how do American locks work in this case? Can you always open them from the inside even if they're locked on the outside? Because I can't imagine not being able to lock myself in.
@@whydoineedanameiwillneverp7790 so interesting. I would freak out. Fire? Murderer? Other things where you need to get out…. And you can't find the key. That sounds so scary. I suppose you could leave it in the door all the time until you leave. Boggling my mind today. Thanks for educating me on this.
@@flippanties we can lock ourselves in from the inside. It’s usually a twist or push mechanism from the inside that can be done without the key. I only need a key to get back in from the outside. On one of my doors, I need the key to lock it from the outside when I leave. All of them can be locked without a key from the inside. I hope that makes sense.
i mean yeah if someone locks you in, most doors are actually always "locked" from the outside, meaning the knob or handle on the outside is immovable, so you can't open it without the key from the outside but can always open it from the inside without having to do anything, so there's no twist or push mechanism you can open without the key because from the inside you don't need the key anyways? hope this makes sense it's kinda hard to explain. A lot of people I know don't ever manually lock their doors when they leave because it's already locked from the outside, so it would make sense tht Nathaniel - being American (right?) - would lock him in because that's probably what his muscle memory tells him to do as he leaves the apartment. edit: I have seen these for sure in Germany, the Netherlands and France, and the UK and Ireland I think don't actually have these types of doors, they often have the "American" style doors I think????
OMG I always thought you had brown eyes but they look super green at the beginning. 😀 (Yes what a pointless comment. My parents also “had” brown eyes that look much more greenish these days so I guess there’s still hope for me.) 😂
Lol. Sry Jack but well done Nathaniel XD. I've locked myself out a couple weeks ago and had to wait outside freezing my good side off sooo, being locked in is not ideal, but if it leads to this, not a bad idea. I actually just found Nathaniels channel this week and it's so cool. And you guys being roomies for now is awesome.
You are so talented and I love so much your videos. This one would be something that I would do without having the house door locked 😂 Thank you for your effort and keep going!
This has nearly happened to me several times recently due to our door being broken but they just fixed it. I was late to several things trying to get out of my own apartment lol
Can you read Like Water For Chocolate by Laura Esquivel? I just finished it and it DESTROYED ME I need reassurace :( (someone that tells me that was a bullshit ending TwT).

When I first moved out I became locked into my apartment. The lock was installed incorrectly and the handle wouldn't turn from the inside. Luckily my mom came to my rescue and the super fixed the lock for free
Geez Nathaniel is one of my fave youtubers. Cant really do the things he's done esp during the lockdown and got stuck in a different country. Such a smart person!
Nathaniel isn't a booktuber. His content is more about travel (though now that he got a place in Paris he'll probably stay put a lot more) and bettering himself.
@@lamefanger6280 i stand corrected. Coz Ive been watching a lot of booktubers so that word has been a kind of auto for me 😁😁😁 Respect to Harry Potter err...Nathaniel Drew lol
Every time I’m feeling pessimistic, I watch your videos because you teach me to see the nice in less favorable conditions and this is a perfect example
Oh, wow. In the U.S. (or at least everywhere I've been), if a door is locked, you can still open it from the inside, and I had assumed that that was the norm, for the last few decades.
It is probably a safety norm now for new buildings or renovated ones (you need to be able to get out in case of emergencies) but I have had doors that had the keyhole on both sides, which means that if someone closes the door from either side with the key, you need the key to open it
Here in Europe (at least where I've lived), closing the front door will close it from the outside but you can still open it from the inside, then when you actively lock the door as well, it can't be opened from either side because this lock pin just goes through a hole in the doorpost. As far as I'm aware, both new and old doors have this system
I'm French so it's a really natural situation for me, like the lock is independent from the handle and you can either lock it from the inside or from the outside and it will have the same effect (completely lock the door) Not sure if I'm clear
Hi. Great way to spend a locked in (a house) day. One thought I had is perhaps the owners of the home looked you up before approving you for the let and found out you love books and so intentionally placed the Jack book there. My suggestion: Read it. See if it is any good. 😊

I did not enjoy the book
Lmao I forgot I had the speed on 1,25 and was surprised that Jack is even more energetic than usual
the title screams chaotic jack energy and im here for it
So does the thumbnail for some reason😭
This is horribly close to home given I currently have coronavirus and am isolating in a hotel room…. thanks Jack for making relatable content 😂
whenever jack uploads on the second channel you just know that it's going to be completely unhinged and slightly concerning
Jack got locked in his apartment and thought - this is a great business opportunity!
The Word of God is the universe

You know you have achieved true success, when you manage to get your accidents sponsored.
That sounds dangerous from a “what if there’s a fire” standpoint… having locks that work that way in the first place.
I’m guessing there’s a fire escape, maybe he just didn’t care that much to get out if there wasn’t an emergency?
I watch like 5 UA-camrs these days and they still somehow interact. What a world
Lol 😂
Jack >> revision
Honestly
UA-camr Goals: Invite Nathaniel Drew to your house and then have him lock you in your residence.

When jack talked about his pencil breaking in two, I thought “take your fav pencil and make it TWO fav pencils”
PLEASE read ‘lie with me’ by philippe besson, it’s actually translated from french and it’s one of the most beautiful books i’ve ever read
i wish i was locked in my apartment to read lots and lots of books because i am a bookworm!

You can't unlock your place from the inside?!?!
That is wild and scary to me
For a hot second I thought the pencil Jack was holding was a cigarette and ngl...it was a vision...but its just a pencil thank god
Can't you unlock it from the inside? Do UK doors not have that option? I'm confused.
When life gives you a broken pencil, sharpen the other half and finesse two pencils out of one :-)
You know what book I haven't forgotten? Flowers for Algernon. You should read this!!
You know Nathaniel omg I love both of you my comfort youtubers are friends
And I actually thought that the other side of the world was in the embrace of the black of the night, only with the astral sky keeping the hope from dying.
