Toms trying to flex on us with his one take 9 minute walking monologue but we're all here marveling at how the camera person walked backwards and even crossed a road without falling over and kept a good shot
Walking backwards can be easy, but only if the path is clear and predictable. I would have to assume there was a third person involved with this video. Tom Scott, his cameraman, and then a third person walking ahead of the cameraman and making sure the path is clear and there is no traffic, etc, on the roads they were crossing.
Also they roads they crossed were access roads to the factory, so there's a whole lot less traffic on them, so it's much easier to do it safely (bar that one truck in the outro)

Thanks Britain for thwarting the invasion. At one point in my life I was locked in a ship with only Dasani and its Pepsi counterpart Aquafina, and it felt like drinking nothingness, which managed to make me even thirstier. Even the tea brewing in it felt lacking.
Not only did the cameran walk backwards for 9 minutes and not only did Tom remember the entire script perfectly but they timed the "there" bit with the coca cola factory so perfectly. (6:28)
During a trip to the US I was like "hmmm what the hell is that purified water they sell in bottles ?" And it was just that. What you can do at home with a water purifier, they do sell to you in a bottle... France, like the UK, never had such a product, and like the UK, has many mineral water brands, exported all over the world (Evian, Vittel, Volvic, Perrier...). There is no way such a product would have worked once people would have known what it was in France, because they would have had the same reaction as me : "why the hell would I pay for that when tap water is so cheap?".
Not every place has nasty tap water like the US though. When I lived in Florida, even a PUR filter didn't do anything for the water - still tasted like drinking warm swamp water.
You pay for the convenience and transport, plus the receptacle, what's inside is the least important part, people know and it still has a market, especially considering the alternatives in the fridge have sugar and other additives I'll pay for the comparatively clean option.
@Landon P I live in Detroit, and Detroit city water is highly regarded. Gotta remember how massive the US is, there are thousands of water treatment plants for all different areas.
@@zbabyg6998 It's not always an issue with the city water - it can also be an issue with pipes as well. Frankly, when I drink water it has to be spring water like Icelandic Glacial, Fiji, or Evian. Purified bottled tap water leaves a chemical aftertaste that is horrible - and most tap water I have drank just has off-putting taste to me.
I mean, everyone talks about Tom getting it in one shot consistently, and kudos to him. But can we talk about that videographer walking backwards for 9 minutes (or forward but keeping the shot on Tom) without even a small stumble?
Come on dude, use your head thats so obviously not a dude with a camera on his shoulder walking backwards lmao. If it was hed be a surgeon not a cameraman
"Here, comes a LORRY." Nice. I love how concise Scott's videos are. Simple premise that can be explained within a reasonably short amount of time. That single take was amazing. Good work Scott and the camera person.
Reasonably short amount of time? 10 minutes to say that there was a "a contamination issue that was attacked by newspapers and referenced an old comedy skit forever tainted (ha ha) the name Dasani in England" is reasonably short??
@@Prototheria I figured, I mean I'm old enough that I'm not Generation A.D.D. or anything, but I found myself clicking ahead just to "get to the bloody point!"
the diffrence is negligable at best, i promise you if you blind tasted It you wouldnt notice a difference, and you body also would see no difference between the two
I hope that they just went with whatever was cheapest as that is actually probably best for the environment and exactly the same for the users. Second of course to making it easy to just get water from a tap
@@SgM-1000 I can pick out different popular water brands without looking at the label, because most of them taste bad to me, so I wouldn't say the difference is negligible. But you could be correct that it's negligible for some, perhaps due to circumstances like ageing or smoking.
@@bubblegumplastic you assume you're the average taster, I suppose I do too, but I've never heard of the opposite being the case, its possible you're a super taster, meaning you perception of flavor is significantly higher then average
Can we just appreciate the pacing of this video that got Tom in the perfect spot for the pan to the factory? I understand it was probably rehearsed but still impressive regardless.
Even in America Dasani is viewed as one of the worst bottled waters. If you get Dasani you are either at a movie theater where they only sell Dasani or it’s the only choice at a gas station in the middle of nowhere.
I only ever heard of it when people were panic buying and someone from the U.S posted on twitter a photo of the shelves being empty except at the end there was a big stacked pile of Dasani water untouched 🤣
Only fools and horses is one of the best and one of my favourite tv shows! It was hugely popular in Croatia and today is still considered cult classic.
Tom, you did not mention the number one issue with tap water: the last mile. The voyage water takes to your tap varies with the type and age of municipality's system. Older pipes contaminate the water with lead and other metals. Sometimes minor cracks will permit untreated ground water. Even if the water is uncompromised your building's local plumbing may be faulty.
Bloody hell, I always thought the whole "camera moving backwards down the road as you walk towards it" bit was just an establishing shot, but you did it for the whole video.
@@bopeeplauerent676 like in a tv show especially comedy when they show the "outside of the building" just to show where the characters are....you know set the scene
Especially his ability to do it all and recite everything verbatim without a script. I could've done without the busy road, but his well timed passing by the plant was a bravo moment
The fact that this is a 1 take is impressive, to know your starting position and monologue so well that you can point to the place you are talking about at 6:35 is pure Tom Scott, which is an adjective meaning 'better than impressive'
I once was at a wedding in Rotherham and they had £12 bottles of "Immingham spring water" on the tables. Immingham has no springs. It does however have two oil refineries and a large port and is covered in coal dust... Cheeky!
2:49 literally seconds before this warning I was commenting to myself how nice the public were being not beeping. Faith in humanity restore then destroyed in seconds 😂
Which is according to the packaging inspired by 'clouds' (and hopefully not their air pollution). I particularly like the supposed manufacturer of 'Glaceau' which has connotations of pure glacier ice-melt. Being distilled water, it's not a million miles away from the stuff you put in your iron (deionised) but adding some electrolytes, because the mineral shtick didn't work last time. I often see a bottle and wonder if the 'smart' refers to how they're once again pulling the wool over their supposedly smart customers' eyes.
Either just spend 10 mins in the middle of the night or... Suffer through a few hours of sleep longing to figure out the answer, exhaust your self by constantly using your brain to find a solution, and wake up sleep deprived only to figure out that the rest of your day is going to be sleepless even if the answer has been established to you
For another perspective on just how alien the concept of “bottled tap water” is in the UK, check out Limmy’s “Water” sketch. “Fae the tap! Free o’ charge! An’ it tastes like any o’er kin’ o’ wa’er!”
It wasn't over nothing. Adding a few minerals (which you could probably do at home) to regular ass (free where I live) tap water doesn't justify bottled water prices. Clearly people didn't think it was tap water. Yes it's all water, but that doesn't give the company the right to mis-sell it as something it's not.
@@Person01234 They never “mis-sold” the product, though. The UK’s consumers worked themselves up because they had _convinced themselves_ Coca-Cola was mislabeling. They were absolutely transparent in what they were selling and each and every bottle _told you_ exactly what it was. Still water treated with minerals. That’s what a large portion of this video covered. 18 years later and people are still dense as f**k.
@@wrije Incorrect. Legally, they did nothing wrong, obviously. But the "dense" thing would be to claim that companies don't play upon cultural perceptions of things in order to imply their product is something more expensive or desirable than it actually is. Which is exactly what they did. They know how UK consumers take the words to mean, not because they're dense but because that's what it literallly always means in that market, and they use that to sell a cheaper to make product for the same price, or at least not adequately cheaper. Corporations won't date you.
Werdest part is how INTENSLY BLUE the UK bottle was in the US version its a slight tint also "Can't Live without Spunk" was laughed at in the US too and for the same reason and was pulled VERY fast
Where are you from? I've lived in the US for 27 years and have never heard "spunk" be used to refer to semen, but I'm seeing others in the US that are familiar. Must've never caught on here in Houston
I'm always blown away by your preparation and execution in these videos. Almost 10 minutes in a single take and a perfectly timed reveal! Well done! Oh and also the story was cool too.
My favorite drink of all time is water Idk I really love the taste and love trying different brand since I was child I hated Dasani and Aquafina I was a very picky eater as a kid so my parents thought I was being dramatic child so I just stuck with tap water (I live in Canada so it’s clean) as I grew up I think more people are starting to realize that Dasani & Aquafina taste horrible, tbh Idk why it took so long for people to realize that water made me more thirsty then quenched super acidic ugh.
I remember watching a UK spokesman for the brand, trying to defend it. The interviewer asked him, : " so what makes Dasani different, after all it's just tap water?" , he replied : " It goes through an incredibly technical filtration system " ,' the interviewer countered with : " 'So that's it, it's just filtered?" And about 2007, I was in Chicago, on the CTA, I saw a bottle of Dasani on the floor, and just shook my head! HOABL
I love your genuine wholesome reactions at the end when you nail it in one take or talk about something else that was happening in the background. It's authentic and adds to your already great delivery of clearly well researched and planned out content.
it's part of his manipulative editing that he talked about in another video. the unnescessary intros and outros that can be easily edited out are left in on purpose to create an illussion of authenticity and relatability. Have to admit it works and is probably a huge part of his success.
@@6squall9 I mean, sure, it's framed. But the joy is genuine. Tom keeps improving at his craft, and you can see it through his years of videos, historically catalogued here.
Dasani's bottles are blue in the US because CocaCola is trying to get activate the subconscious connection between the color blue, cold temperatures, and bodies of clean water that reflect the blue sky. No other bottled water in the US does this to the extent CocaCola does, although almost all of them use blue or blue-on-white labels on clear bottles. Incidentally, the more fancy mineral waters and sparkling waters in the US often use green glass bottles.
@@ioioire4684 in all fairness, the eggs aren't bleached. Americans just prefer white-shelled eggs, so they're laid from varieties of hen that naturally lay white eggs.
One of my coworker's brothers was an executive at Coca Cola. We were talking about how Dasani is just filtered tap water and he said that his brother actually said that bottling Dasani was more expensive than Coke because of the extensive filtration process. I'm not surprised as I think that they spend more on marketing than on the actual product. To be honest, I'm much more bothered by seeing Fiji, San Pelligrino, or Evian shipped halfway around the world than the idea that Dasani is just well-filtered water.
This has become my favourite Tom Scott video. I think it may be because of where it’s being filmed. English roads are just so familiar and my brain associates them with a nice and calm family walk.
Cedric Ye It's possibly the least factual claim. Full disclosure: I'm an Atlanta native and one of my life's loves spent a few career-forming years at Coke. So I was pulling for them a bit. But assuming all the claims are true, Coke really screwed the pooch with the contaminated ingredient. Pity. I like the version sold here in the states. Of course it's subjective, but they got it right for _my_ palate.
It's really interesting to hear that they tried to change the flavor to match a British palette because Dasani is some of the worst tasting bottled water you can buy in the US, and it would not be a far cry to assume that they did not care about taste at all.
I had to by desani bc it’s all my store had left, drank two of the 24 & felt thirstier = ended up using the rest on my house plants & they ended up dying (seriously!)= think too much sodium in it or bad sodium?!
I get a case and just leave it in the bed of my truck so when I get it I just assume it’ll taste bad cause usually it’s been there for weeks and I’m just really thirsty
I remember back when this came out in the UK that the newspapers run a story on Dasani being bottled tap water from a tap near Peckham, like the plot in the Only Fools & Horses episode. I've mentioned it to a few people over the years whenever I've seen Dasani on TV or when in America or something and no one remembers the story so I'm glad this video now exists so I can point them to it.
@@XVeganDaveGodFreeX you can buy both on amazon for 20 total. You'll need like 4 filters a year thats 10-15 more I guess. If you want sparkling water the machine cidts about 70 I think.
@@grizzlymang1930 It's disgusting, that. Every once in a while I'll hear some celebrity say they've a soloution but then *pbffft* • Makes me ache. Well, that, & the ICE concentration camps for asylum seekers. 💔😭
When making water specifically for coffee some people will get distilled water and add a bit of baking soda and magnesium. Water that is hard will not be able to extract coffee very well and messes up the heating element on coffee machines.
The "It Follows" sequel looks really good. Imagine having sex and suddenly Tom Scott is walking slowly towards you talking about plastic bottles and spunk.
I know that in many one-take videos like that, people tend to walk their way backwards while saying the script as a way to ensure they have things lined up, but it's usually with 2-3 minutes takes, not with 7-10 minutes.
I'm only 25, but when Tom rips on Only Fools and Horses as outdated and harks back to a time when people "actually read paper newspapers" it makes me feel 50 years old.
@@oddsandwindsocks5905 Exactly. I saw this video some time ago, and randomly remembered it just now, mostly feeling annoyed that he called Only Fools bad. So I came here a year later to disagree with him; I guess the thought of somebody calling one of my favourite shows bad just festered in my mind. I'm 37 btw.

During a trip to the US I was like "hmmm what the hell is that purified water they sell in bottles ?" And it was just that. What you can do at home with a water purifier, they do sell to you in a bottle... France, like the UK, never had such a product, and like the UK, has many mineral water brands, exported all over the world (Evian, Vittel, Volvic, Perrier...). There is no way such a product would have worked once people would have known what it was in France, because they would have had the same reaction as me : "why the hell would I pay for that when tap water is so cheap?".
Not every place has nasty tap water like the US though. When I lived in Florida, even a PUR filter didn't do anything for the water - still tasted like drinking warm swamp water.
You pay for the convenience and transport, plus the receptacle, what's inside is the least important part, people know and it still has a market, especially considering the alternatives in the fridge have sugar and other additives I'll pay for the comparatively clean option.
@Landon P I live in Detroit, and Detroit city water is highly regarded. Gotta remember how massive the US is, there are thousands of water treatment plants for all different areas.
@@zbabyg6998 It's not always an issue with the city water - it can also be an issue with pipes as well. Frankly, when I drink water it has to be spring water like Icelandic Glacial, Fiji, or Evian. Purified bottled tap water leaves a chemical aftertaste that is horrible - and most tap water I have drank just has off-putting taste to me.

Tom, you did not mention the number one issue with tap water: the last mile.
The voyage water takes to your tap varies with the type and age of municipality's system. Older pipes contaminate the water with lead and other metals. Sometimes minor cracks will permit untreated ground water.
Even if the water is uncompromised your building's local plumbing may be faulty.
Bloody hell, I always thought the whole "camera moving backwards down the road as you walk towards it" bit was just an establishing shot, but you did it for the whole video.

I'm blown away at your ability to go 10 minutes in ONE TAKE.
There's a kind of pleasure in seeing a corporation as big as Cola-Cola completely failing at something, even if the media outrage was over nothing.
It wasn't over nothing. Adding a few minerals (which you could probably do at home) to regular ass (free where I live) tap water doesn't justify bottled water prices. Clearly people didn't think it was tap water. Yes it's all water, but that doesn't give the company the right to mis-sell it as something it's not.
@@Person01234 it was far from nothing.. Totally agree. Feel like a Coke exec was trying to dismiss the issue.
@@Person01234 They never “mis-sold” the product, though. The UK’s consumers worked themselves up because they had _convinced themselves_ Coca-Cola was mislabeling. They were absolutely transparent in what they were selling and each and every bottle _told you_ exactly what it was. Still water treated with minerals. That’s what a large portion of this video covered. 18 years later and people are still dense as f**k.
@@wrije Incorrect. Legally, they did nothing wrong, obviously. But the "dense" thing would be to claim that companies don't play upon cultural perceptions of things in order to imply their product is something more expensive or desirable than it actually is. Which is exactly what they did. They know how UK consumers take the words to mean, not because they're dense but because that's what it literallly always means in that market, and they use that to sell a cheaper to make product for the same price, or at least not adequately cheaper.

“That’s cool and all but
Why is the bottle so blue?”
Probably to make it look more fresh
Tonnes of food items America are weirdly coloured, bleached eggs, orange cheese, very very pale butter.
Dasani's bottles are blue in the US because CocaCola is trying to get activate the subconscious connection between the color blue, cold temperatures, and bodies of clean water that reflect the blue sky. No other bottled water in the US does this to the extent CocaCola does, although almost all of them use blue or blue-on-white labels on clear bottles.
Incidentally, the more fancy mineral waters and sparkling waters in the US often use green glass bottles.
@@ioioire4684 in all fairness, the eggs aren't bleached. Americans just prefer white-shelled eggs, so they're laid from varieties of hen that naturally lay white eggs.

Cedric Ye It's possibly the least factual claim. Full disclosure: I'm an Atlanta native and one of my life's loves spent a few career-forming years at Coke. So I was pulling for them a bit. But assuming all the claims are true, Coke really screwed the pooch with the contaminated ingredient. Pity. I like the version sold here in the states. Of course it's subjective, but they got it right for _my_ palate.
It's really interesting to hear that they tried to change the flavor to match a British palette because Dasani is some of the worst tasting bottled water you can buy in the US, and it would not be a far cry to assume that they did not care about taste at all.
