  • i was there last month

  • i worked on building this store for 2 years !

  • @RsPelite well done sir, you and your team put together a piece of art ;). Congrats :D

  • @RsPelite and you r proud of it ? you worked for 2 years at a lame store, whit a shitty paycheck, selling overpriced pieces of technologyt ppl (that get re packaged and re sell with a different number a year after they are release with little or no changes), trying to sell more bs to ppl that cant really afford it ...

    mmm yeah, way to go

  • Regent's is smaller, this one is the biggets in the world say's Wiki. We've picked up one of our iphone's there. Stuff wasn't too helpful and a bit misleading, I have to say.

  • lol!!! dav..!

  • its amazing

  • damn!!! look at those ipad stock

  • nice video man, i live 2-3 minutes away from the apple store, i got my phone there. 05:10 they got pigeon spikes up there, no chance of pidgeon shit.

  • wow im suprised that the line ever finished and mate you didnt hear things cos they were shouting but your were thinking things

  • i went to the opening i saw you and i got a free apple t-shirt woop woop

  • i went on the first day and i live in manchester but the only reason i went was because man utd where playing in wemberly so i hop on the tube and went to the store

  • can you try headphones in this store?

  • OMG , I want the iToilet in my house

  • I enjoy watching your vids! thumbs up

  • hey i saw a tardus lol

  • What I fail to understand is how people become brand worshippers. It's good to appreciate a nice product, but this cult like following is scary!!

  • i - toilet!! Ha ha!

  • Its incredibly creepy..almost cult like..well it is cult like.. its just a bit creepy and embarrassing.

  • Wow. How many people lined up?

  • I went there for the first time at the weekend and it great :)

  • @SARAHfromLONDONuk it is indeed, its gorgeous :D

  • @theunits3

    Yes it is.

  • @theunits3 Want to Go There

    I Live in MN,USA That Store Looks Very Nice

  • The i Elevator

  • "apple staff, god knows what drugs they're on"

  • shaycarl!!

  • Shay Carl xD

  • In this video I learned that a line is called a cue in the UK

  • Cant stop watching this video, Im so looking forward to my UK visit at the end of September, first place im going is here as soon as i get off the plane at gatwick!

    (well i will need to take a train ride first of course)

  • Just spotted one of those pigeons!!! 10.57 on the vid!!!!

    Cheers

  • LOL Very good Video !

    Hillarious commentry =]

  • @cheebur1 website didn't cost, left uni last year :D. Been working on a project for a few months now and the reason why i attended the store opening (first one) was to distribute some tshirts to promote the webby. The actual opening etc was the cherry on the cake :D

  • The magical and revolutionary iToilet

  • That Is .......... HUGE!!!!!!!!!

  • hhaha itoilet ...it has ipoop in it

  • Great video and pretty funny commentary too :)

    I was in my local vodaphone store today on Buchanan street only 2 mins down from the apple store I know but me and my dad walked in and I upgraded my iPhone 3G to a new iPhone 4 no cues no hassle lol

    All you people down there come up here to Glasgow we have loads of iPhone 4s lol

  • u sure that was shaycarl looks similar but doesn't look like him he usually wears a hat and he was in California at this time so...

  • SHAY CARL!!! lmao :')

  • I didn't know you were a fan of the ShayTards :P

  • that kid with the iPad is so creepy.

  • much bigger than the Eldon Square opening xD

  • how embarassing to leave your phone there dude lol cant believe how many people were there just for that event good video :D

  • All this for apple store. Personally i think the macbooks and that are rubbish. The only good products they make are the iphoens and ipods. Still nice video, thanks for sharing

  • It coincided with Brighton gay pride :(

  • does it have ubderfloor heating? it looks like it will get pretty cold in there

  • I'm guessing the Sydney Apple store is like the 2nd - 3rd biggest one? or am i wrong on that?

  • @dddarlo I've got download 2010,2009,2008 and slam dunk Leeds 2010 and 2009 on a wrist.

    Then Leeds fest 2009,2008, v festival 2009, and then alexisonfire tour, and a few over 18 wristbands :D

  • will you sell the shirt? ill pay big money

  • @zP3TSC0z im not selling the apple covent garden tshirts, not for any amount LOL. BUT, you can get it from ebay :D

  • Man o man what a hottie! 6:58

  • @SchneiderStudios lol, trust u to say this :D. I can't judge by seeing someones rear side

  • its pretty pathetic, like why so much fuss over an opening. users are only interestedin the thrill of getting a product and not actually finding something new and innovative. for example apple do new and innovative but not at this level. just look at the way google are revoloutionizing ui with anroid. android has taken control of 21 percent of the user market in less than a year

  • I live in London but didn't attend this ;) Ever since the iPhone 4 queue I've been really put off by queues and crowds. I will go into the store at a later date though, it looks phenomenal.

  • im sorry that sucks that they only sent the VP, and no jobs or fry or ive NOT COOL apple

  • lol about shay carl, they cant say you cant go... thats not allowed

  • that dude is wayyyy fatter than shay lol

  • Nice one man. Should be getting my new iMac from here in the next few weeks.

  • beautiful store... makes the one here in San Francisco look like shit

  • great video!!! don't quite understand the queue for the iphone 4 though!!

    its been out for ages!

    Glasgow stores still better lol. !!

  • Superb! Can't believe you missed Forstal you sounded soooo gutted! However you also sounded like a kid in a candy store! Lol next time I'm in London I'm there 100%

  • @Clockster70 trust me, i was gutted. Can't believe I missed him out my lens when taking that footage. There was just so much going on, completely missed it :/. Yes, its a bit like Charlie & the Choc factory isn't it lol

  • lol shaycarl 

  • 05:20 white load :P

  • @the67bug not the kind your thinking of :D, or the kind she likes.

  • @theunits3 Lol THATS WHAT SHE SAID

  • @theunits3 maybe the kind he likes . no thats it im done ive gone to far lol

    great vid store looks cool just one in ireland would be nice haha

  • ahhh london has the best apple stores, this is far better than the new york one

  • apparently quite a few celebs went.

  • @the67bug Ikr.

  • Oh my, brick and glass. Pure awesomeness.

  • OMG i missed it CRAP

  • Thanks for sharing.

  • We need an apple store in the Scottish Borders or Edinburgh!

  • @blothian01 deffo could do with one in central scotland (edinburgh) or another one in glasgow (silverburn would be ideal). :D

  • Aww man this video was really well shot, i feel as if i could listen to your commentaries all day ( no homo ) ( well ;) ) jokes,

    ahah but in all seriousness i hope there's an apple event here in glasgow, then maybe i can go and join the fun!

    Thanks, Jack

  • @wacko506 ha! Don't hold your breath. How cool would it be if they turned one of the castles in Edinburgh to an Apple store lol. It would be one huge ass store, and my gosh, would it be a beauty.

  • @theunits3 Oh my god, and you know what? It's probably not impossible for Apple, i would make sure to get my ass to that castle, i wouldn't miss it!

  • I really wish we had an apple store where I live! I would be there anytime I had spare time lol I love apple

  • is this where hmv used to be?

  • @temaskell08 no idea, was my first time around this place in London

  • Awesome. Steve Jobs opened another Worship Center in the UK. This one is huge.

  • hahaha shay carl

  • thats me im in that video getting filmed by apple at 09:20

  • Hahaha I didn't even know you watched Shay Carl.

    Anyway, that's an interesting Apple store, and the worlds largest? A lot of brick and it's 4 stories and an all glass elevator. That's awesome!

  • i just got the iphone 4 yesterday (my first iphone) ans i haven't got any antenna problems! i love it :)

  • Know what's next? The iToilet Paper - Washes your ass for you!!

  • Really thoughtful of you to bring us this awesome footage of the largest apple store thus far , the building is a historical beauty, I hope you will do the same for Glasgow!! I'm sure you have.

  • @earlbee31 the Glasgow one is the UK's 3rd largest store (was on 2nd place after Regent St). But now the opening of this Covent Garden has pushed it back to no 3. Its still huge though, the Glasgow one. They could do with a glass lift :D

  • steve jobs was there, he was on the roof taking on the pigeons lol

  • Wait so apple didn't have enough ipads to sell in the uk originally now they have a massive wall full of them lol

  • i know i can occasionally be controversial but i will never understand the sad assholes who queue up for an event such as this (no offence :D)

    maybe i'm spoilt being from london and having this stuff around me on tap all my life or maybe i'm just not a corporate knobhead who bows down to redundant, expensive over hyped junk and all this over-hyped software and hardware at pathetically high prices.

    Surely SOMEBODY knows we should be receiving a whole lot more and a whole lot better?

    peace

  • Wow amazing store, as well as a brilliant video! This store is definitely on my Bucket List along with the Fifth Avenue Store and Shanghai store. That must have been just an incredible experience. I would have killed to have been there!

  • the itoilet hahaaha

  • I love the history of the building's and design over across the pond!! Really Great video bro..cheers

  • @roaming1978 your welcome, it was gorgeous

  • I wish i lived in London(:

  • @whyxxxtry it's an overrated shithole m8. dirty and old

  • Haha, Shay Carl!

  • LMAO! Shay Carl!

  • @xelentoliver Couldn't help but put him in. Funny, cause I only realised i'd taken footage of him when I was editing... im now gutted, should of went up to him and asked him if sontard was kicking about the store doing his dance moves lol

  • @theunits3 HAHA! xD Brilliant!

  • Hey you got me in the video lol cheers I saw you and had to get ur attention in some way and I saw u recording so I through up ur YouTube and show it to you cheers for it anyway love the t-shirt as well really good to wear cheer :)

  • @nirajm34 nice one!!! hope you like the tshirt and great work on the iPad :D. Did you buy anything from the store? Wanted to get the 'lmited edition covent garden special' MBP case but there were none left. Gutted

  • @theunits3 na i didnt did u buy anything else and i jus went for the atmospere and to see you there but i couldnt go out the queue so my bro went instead lol hope u had a good time there.

  • @theunits3 haha, shay carl!!!! nah we didnt buy anything, i think you were in my video as well!!! Was a pretty nice store though. u buy anything in the end???

  • W0w the iToilet Exists :D ...... But isnt the stuff they sell the exact same as what they sell in other apple stores.... what was ur face like when u lost ur iPhone 4 :P

  • This seems kinda douchey

  • The women you stood next to at the end of the video, who directed the lost guy back to where he was supposed to go, I stood next to her when I was in the qeue for the iPhone 4 at Regent street on Launch Day. haha, small world, huh.

  • That's insane, the amount of people that queued just to see a shop open! Only time I have been in an Apple store is in Brussels when I needed a charger for my iPhone (they wanted £25 so I got one at another shop for £10!)

  • LOL I LIVE 30 minutes away from Covent Garden

  • LOL shay carl!

  • @thedigitalflow couldn't help but put him in

  • It would've been awesome if one of the big Apple execs turned up

  • SHAYYY CARLLLL :D

  • The quality of this video is impeccable; seems as though it was professionally shot for a television segment on G4/TechTV. Impressive, to say the least.

    Enjoyed it, Zen.

  • @QuietSundayLibrary ha ha, maybe not that level but will get there soon :/. Thoroughly enjoyed it, well worth the amount spent getting to london lol

  • how did you get to London? Next time there is an event like this id be up for it! (From Glasgow to)

  • @iainsnotes amazing. will be in-touch if theres any more events but i guess not for a long time :/

  • lol this is fucking funny xD you should post it in on collegehumor and add some comments like 'a you see that ass' xD

  • damn man cant believe you forgot ur iphone 4....gosh

  • @zahrose neither could I. u shoulda seen my face lol

  • @theunits3 I would have had a heart attack lol... so glad you managed to get it back though phew...

  • Glass...attract shit LMAO

  • Ermm apart from the size of the store.. whats the difference with any other Apple store? =/.. I just dont get the big fuss.. e.g. surley the iPhone 4's are the same in here as any other Apple store or o2 store.. =P

  • @19jamo92 iphone 4's are in high demand, not available at most (if not all) stores.

  • @theunits3 haha ok fair enough.. and i suppose you decided to give them an extra one to help with the stock issues by leaving urs on the table =D
