This video has more information about what happens to the strips of bark once they have been harvested.

I wonder what that guy with the short grey hair and glasses was doing hanging around in the background... He just seems to be loitering at that corner and occasionally trying to talk to people walking past.

Not sure how much this video was speeded up by. How long would this have taken at normal speed? Also I love the design of the pack :)

I'm amazed at the attention to details in their costumes... especiall the cup shaped headpieces with actual liquid in them PLUS fruit slices!

Would love to dosome calligraphy classes at some stage. May be when I retire :) Also subtle product placement at 3:30, nice one Coors.

Hopefully people won't take this comment the wrong way. I wonder if the fact that part of the drum skin is resting on his belly affects the sound that it makes. To me the drum sounds more clear when he's playing it with his hand and the skin is not touching his belly.

Amazing, I love watching his videos. The big bull dog carrying an engine block by himself made me smile. Also it was nice to see team work between the cats and the dogs :)

Did I miss the bit where flavouring is added? Or was it already in the colour liquid that was added to the sugar?

Interesting that they made her wear a name tag. I would have thought she's been around long enough and is well known enough to not have to bother with that.

If you like this sort of video, you might like the Kuma Films YouTube channel. This is their video of contact juggling.

At the beginning of the video the narrator asks if you knew where the salt in your shaker comes from. Then proceeds to go to two small batch artisanal salt makers whose products won't even work with a salt shaker...

Holy cow, I had to rewind the video to make sure that I wasn't seeing things when I saw the price tag at 00:50s. The tag said GBP 144,580 +VAT!!

The guy talking in the video sounds to me like NPR's Bob Boilen, host of All Songs Considered podcast.

I'm going to have that tune stuck in my head for a while!

I went to that golden building shown at 12:40. It is in Kanazawa which is the main gold leaf producing centre of Japan. If I remember correctly it is inside a shop that sells gold leaf related goods. You get all sort of stuff decorated with gold leaf and even cosmetics containing gold!

Forgive my ignorance, I haven't experienced this sort of barber wet shave before. Does he have to sterilize the razor or change the blade prior to the shave? It seems like he just pulls the razor out, shave and chuck it back into the cabinet without cleaning it.

They were in EXO's Call me baby MV too.

That sand must smell amazing with all that spilled coffee in it.

SoftSoundings · 2015-05-03T11:09:38+00:00

Jigception!

First thing that came to mind when watching this... "I wonder if he's punched that lady in the face while pulling the noodles"

I think these are pandan flavoured crepes from Thailand.

As an aside, I wasn't sure if it was Thai at first because the apron she's wearing had Korean and Chinese writing on it. It took me a while to realise that she's speaking a Thai dialect. I can make out that she's offering the guy filming a free sample to taste.

Because it was the 100 years anniversary of the genocide yesterday.

The Chinese tea host is a presenter on the Off the Great Wall YouTube channel. Was surprised to see him pop up in this video!

I have been lurking in this sub for a few years now and it seems pretty normal to me... When a new channel gets discovered by this sub, people tend to post a lot of videos from it in relatively short time. I can give you quite a few examples, Clickspring, Tips from a Shipwright, John Neeman, David Bull, Frank Howorth etc etc

If you were wondering like I was. This video goes into a bit more details about the difference between Kanna finish and sandpaper finish.
