Heyyyyy, I’m the guy who the arrow pointing at in your thumbnail!!!!! It was a awesome day, ended up with a broken foot but was totally worth it 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hello!!! I am the guy in the green shirt who is first tumbling down the hill. Great video!!!!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching the ladies! The last one with her handbag made me giggle so hard I had to watch it again! ❤😂
Us British do anything for a laugh.
Well, Australians are just the same.. i have done pumpkin rolling competitions in my time, but the hill was not as steep as that one. Love it.
i wanna participate…. wtf lol
17:56 THAT'S MY BUDDY!!!!!! GREEN SHIRT!! Poor bastard broke his ankle, but he's doing great!
In 2020 during Covid Lockdown I stumbled across the music of Mizoram, India. I saw music videos of Zorimawi and MDM channel. I was impressed with the music of Mizoram. Their music sounded like 1970s USA.
My 5 favorite Mizo artists are the following:
1) K Hminga
2) Kimkima
3) C Sanga
4) Mami Varte
5) Sangtei Khuptong
These Mizo songs gave me very high dopamine
1) Zorinzuali Khiangte- Pawmalai Tingtang this song is like Stevie Ray Vaughan House is a Rockin.
2) Sangtei Khuptong- Di Ruk Te this 2023 song is like Gloria Gaynor I will Survive.
3) Kimkima- I zun ngaih lunglen Vangin. Is this the best song of 2019?
4) K Lalthlamuankimi- Khuangchawi Thla this song is like Joni Mitchell Both Sides Now featured in Oscar winning film CODA.
5) Mami Varte- Damlai Par
Amazing the government haven't tried to ban it😅
Get yourself to Ottely St Mary where they roll fire barrels through the streets
First time I ever watched a vlog twice over! Crazy stuff but absolutely fascinating what some humans will put themselves through 😂
TT on the Isle of Man is the craziest event in my opinion. Nothing is as insane as the drivers that zoom through the villages and roads there.
But this is in the top 10 probably
Pesto is so versatile, try walnuts instead of pine nuts … if you want. Great vlog as usual.😊
what a crazy event !!
Flingin' themselves off a steep hill to imminent casualties! Liam…so so funny, yet not!
Em, yeah. There were plenty of mental people from the US there too! A whole lot of loons!
Vegan cheese? That's an abomination!
I went many years ago to the cheese rolling event (not to participate may I add), it is pretty much the mentalist event I've ever seen. Cheddar is one of my favourite places to visit in the UK, I can highly recommend Petruth Paddocks camping site for those who don't "free park". I've walked the gorge many times, most recently 2 years ago with my 12 year old daughter, who wanted to kill me afterwards and probably would have if she could move another inch 🤣
You have to come to Tar Barrels in Devon Nov 5th. Another crazy British event !!!
That looked so daring and dangerous! Thanks for sharing❤
That was scarey watching the cheese rolling hope no one was seriously hurt the pesto looks lovely I'm going to try that we really enjoy your videos
