Speakers Corner - Proof that it's a Mad World

[celticrossa]

How does this show the worlds mad?

[wafiakul]

well done i love the song and the idea about the video only one thing is missing here , if you only shows the sound of the people how is talking there along with song that would be much better

[BigT2210]

I wish this video had more views. Well done. 

[sushihest]

Is the guy with the horns always there!?

[svenman1996]

half of the people in this video were at speakers corner when I was there in the very beginning of april 2011

[Samuelwhatshisface]

Ha. The woman at 2.07 is there EVERY WEEKEND. She's pretty much batshit crazy =]

[TheLouD711]

A very entertaining place for people who embrace proof and science.

[tubiejonny]

This must be some really old footage. I saw some religious people there.....it must pre-date schools.

[jacksonsteve35]

I really like speaker corner in london ont its really to bad they stopped it . they took the machines out of both locations. Say no to methadone.

Take Care

this is the most pointless video on youtube and that's some accolade. the video is from speakers corner and there is no speaking. must try harder

[chimoio100]

@fivepointsix exactly!

[Skrallingen]

search = Monty Python - The Life of Brian - Crazy Prophets

[AirWick3D]

Nice video, i like it!

[yossariancomplex]

This proves nothing other than that people can talk. If you were trying to give evidence of infirm sanity it might have been a good idea to not have the needlessly sentimental soundtrack and allow us to hear the various oratory; which would also have made the video interesting.

[TheSteveeg]

I like it. I like it a lot. The soundtrack fits perfectly. It gives the video a whole new feel.

[toolband79]

I'm not saying that I know the meaning of life nor do I pretend to but you have to sympathize with these people, they're just looking for answers to a unanswerable question. The answer could quite simply be that there is no answer. Why waste your life chasing shadows?

[mwchinbach]

Hey,nobody gets shot,nobody gets stabbed up. Okay, maybe nobody learns much, but all these people can blast out their stuff and then go home feeling good about themselves. Yay, speakers corner!

[logansGT]

Shitty species.....shitty music!

[loveupskirts]

love speakers corner, nut job central.

nutscases are drawn to each other like iron filings to a magnet.

[toolband79]

Shhhh! Thats science, that scares religious people.

[hotelmario510]

Humans are idiots.

[auguritutto]

@hotelmario510

Not neccessarily and over the years there have been some very interesting and worthwhile speakers and participants at Speakers Corner - folk faught to establish the right to use the Hyde Park space - once upon a time Hyde Park was all walled in and accessible ONLY to the rich and powerful. Too easy to castigate all as idiots. Anyway its quite an entertaining video.

[hotelmario510]

@auguritutto Ho hum, it goes either way.

[NecrotiKmax]

@hotelmario510 yeh :) we shoud all apply to that

[hotelmario510]

@NecrotiKmax It's very true. Trees are more intelligent than us, mainly because they never do anything to fuck anything up.

[Crossbowman]

@hotelmario510 Black Walnuts release chemicals into the ground which prevent other plants from growing.

[hotelmario510]

@Crossbowman Yeah, well...dammit.

[cunetus]

@hotelmario510 i'm not and i don't think you're so neither - people are just confused........about where wisdom comes from.

[hotelmario510]

@cunetus In your opinion,

[cunetus]

@hotelmario510 agree.

[jmool85]

[terryfez]

mad world..gary jules ;)

[vikkio88]

thank you so mach

[aj9qzztb87n]

They must be mad, they are talking to each other, rather than shooting at each other. Lock them all away and send in the Marines, Taliban, Mau Mau, Fenians, Crusaders, Falangists, Red Army Faction, National Rifle Association, New Model Army, the SLA, the PFLP, the Angry Brigade...

[worriedaboutlife]

wow, you have a real encylopedic knowledge of human tradegy.. I am a human tradegy.....

[ALEIAHPUTALLAZ]

great video ¨!

[AR2D76]

Lovely piece of work. i liked it alot.

[hsindi]

Why all the hate rabbit and alic, Can't we all just get along? And the point of Hyde Park is for people to hear speakers addressing whatever issues or topics they wish to the public and maybe enlighten the crowd or encourage an idea or principle into their daily lives...Peace and God Bless.

[rabbithog]

the next muslim i see at the corner i will throw a brick at him or her

[importedmusic]

rofl

[alicolumb]

I think whoever goes to HYDE PARK are mental... especially muzis people... and some people have habit of doing this.

[gjamin]

Halloran2 is a dipsh*t. Go to a session of parliament/congress and listen to the crap they're throwing out. Maybe if more people debated publicly instead of hidden behind these screens the level of debate wd be more sophisticated. So bugger off ya nincompoop.

[mb1606]

I absolutely agree that this world is mad in some way. But I don't see the link to Speaker's Corner. I think its a great thing that people can freely express their opinion and share it with others, stimulating criticism and debate! It should be a model for other cities in the world..

[mosa105]

how come u didnt mention (sammer) idiot sammy is the best speaker get that right modernjazz1

[supadupadennis]

i cant believe there is a "speakers corner"

its a FREE SPEECH ZONE!!!!!

and you guys just eat this up!we are living in a totalitarian world.

this is why we had a revolution in the states so everywhere is a free speech zone.

revolution is the only way out of this, friends.

good luck to you and yours in these incredible times we are living through.

[user991984]

america is a free speech zone?

[BigT2210]

That song has alot of power behind it. Nicely done on this video with the use of the song, the footage and the color scheme. 10/10

[turkman19]

i don't understand the video exactly. can someone please tell me the message in it.

[sasqwatcher]

Excellent work !!!!!!!!!!!

[elasetti]

you manage to understand that we truly are in a mad world . fantastic work

[cheyennebritbrat]

lovely

[arniesarnie]

just doing some research for a script and came across your video. Sums the whole idea and place in 3:11. Ta

[lichterzauber]

Well done! Most certainly the best video about speakers corner on youtube.

Yes, too many religious nutcases. But still a lot wonderful British crackpots with fascinating ideas (e.g. Secret of eternal youth) or humour (e.g. It's going to get worse).

[sasqwatcher]

TOTALLY AGREE what luck happening upon this. The author really captured the essense.

[Modernjazz1]

too many religious nutcases @ speakers corner. Most in your video are still at hyde park. ali's still cool, as well as the hecklers. nima, heiko khoo, ishmail are all good speakers (though ishamil needs to change his shtick a bit). diane is still a racist, but its all good fun. 12:00 pm @ hyde park corner, if your brave enough, join in the fun!
