  • ro tierney congratulations beautiful video you sure captured the moment wish you all the luck in the world on your film career  best wishes from buncrana inishowen co donegal ireland

  • this is simply delightful.

  • Lovely camerawork and editing Ro. It is a really charming clip. Thanks for capturing a magical bit of Cuba St history. Hope the move to film work goes brilliantly - you obviously have gift.

  • Great use of Debussy.

  • the joy is what stands out here - wonderfully shot and edited

  • This is charming, I guess it doesn't snow much in Wellington!

  • @katmajic Not since the 30's :)

  • Er, I live in Canada... if you want some more snow contact me in about 2 months and I can mail you some!

  • @VisualVideoTruth: Maybe they'd try to make the snowy scene just for the hell of it, but if they really needed snow in the movie, they'd just CGI it. :)

  • Ponoko brought me here! Interesting to see somewhere that is amazed by snow... I live in Winnipeg, where we get tons!

  • Oh dear, is this what the average Kiwi looks like? :)))

  • Sean O Brien is in the country so obviously WINTER IS COMING!

  • claire de lune. great song

  • Hope all you Wellingtonians enjoyed the snow, something as wonderful as this is practically a once in a lifetime event there. Brings a smile to my face just watching this, lovely!. :)

  • how to get yt views:

    0-10,000 tag your boring vid with common search terms

    10,000-50,000 make a response vid/remix of a much more popular vid

    50,000-200,000 know how to meaningfully combine music and video

    200,000-1,000,000 have something slightly interesting to say

    1,000,000-10,000,000 have something funny/interesting/depressing to say

    10,000,000-100,000,000 be a music video/veteran youtube series

    100,000,000+ either have tons of talent or intelligence, or a severe lack of the two.

  • ..but 'Football in the Groin' had a football in the groin..

  • Shit I forgot it was Winter in the Southern Hemisphere...

  • WOW

  • @marmaline2001 in Wellington city, yes.

  • Clare de Lune, Debussy. Matches very well

  • what is this music? twilight or study music project??? sounds so familiar - very nice!!!

  • who says it is in new zealand, it could be anywhere!

  • @bufothetoad1 . its definitely new zealand.

  • Comment removed

  • The Bucket Fountain is unique to Cuba Mall, Wellington, Newzealand. So is the Umbrella Sculpture. Can't be anywhere else in the world

  • @bufothetoad1 Yeah except the fact that we all know it's Wellington cause a lot of us have been to Cuba Mall, it is like a top tourist spot you know.

  • just posted a response to this, hope you accept it.

  • *__* ojalá algún día pueda sentir la nieve!!! me gustaría mucho que sea en Londres *__________* awwww un sueñooo!

    * __ * I hope someday I can feel the snow! I would love to be in London *__________* awwww a dream!

  • This is so beautiful. Who would dislike it? Eight heartless douche-bags all alone with nothing to do, that's who.

  • @ItsSamOden song was gay

  • @WellyPheonix Troll. Debussy is very ungay.

  • @ItsSamOden Troll? Song was lame.

  • @WellyPheonix U are Gay

  • How was this uploaded on the 14th and then it happened on the 15th?!

  • @ChristopherJManess Might be because of time zone differences. Maybe New Zealand has a time machine.

  • @ItsSamOden Whoa...

  • this might be one of the most gayest videos ive ever seen so gay that im going to go watch porn now. probably bangbros im going to watch just the previews though because i cant pay because i dont have a credit card. then im going to delete my history because my girlfriend uses this computer.

    OK. More rare and unusual than when we got some here in town.

    Thank you very much fo your answer.

  • Snow seems to bring the child out in us. Why is that?  Well, it didn't seem to impress the kid in this video at 1:14. It looked as if the roles were reversed in this video. Loved it. Thank you.

  • Nice video

  • cuba does not have a mall >;(

  • Oh so beautiful!

    I do hope to see snow for myself one day :(

  • @ledzeppelintsrts You haven't seen snow in your whole life ? Where do you live?

  • @StylerXxXStyler Brazil. There are a few towns, usually very high above sea level, where it snows, but i've never been to those places, i'm usually working/studying around winter time. Last time it "snowed" in my home town, although not nearly as much as in this Wellington video, was in 1975 (/watch?v=gJIfp5hukyc), so i was about 10 years too late. A very specific set of factors where in place, so it was a pretty rare occurrence. Hail storms are not that uncommon though.

  • from the best videos :) .. and i adore snow <3

  • snow : bringing humans together since fucking forever

  • Snow in Cuba What a Wonder. This video made me Smile Almost made me shit myself when i say the child of the CORN at 1:13 (He looks Pissed) But i thought there was a Hurricane brewing in the Gulf? Snow and rain Lucky Cubans send some of both to Texas....

  • Makes me feel like moving to antarctica

  • Another great HD take on the snow in lower hutt that day on my channels guys...

  • Wow it's really awesome to watch people smile and laugh like that. Made my night :)

  • THIS is an appropriate time to make a status about the weather, not when it's just raining heavily and people go crazy on their fb statuses...

  • ok im gonna cry now..

  • I love the serenity..I am usually all tensed up but after this and the music...Thank you!

  • its not working

  • just be glad it isnt three feet of snow in a week...

  • 「天垂象見吉凶,所以示人也,從二(古文上字)三垂日月星也,觀­乎天文,以察時變,示神事也,凡示之屬皆從示。」

    意思是說,『示』由上方的二與下方的三合成,上方的橫二,古時候­本為『上』的意思,代表天,下方的直三(川)則代表日月星(三光­),因為上天藉由日月星的變化來表示吉凶,所以,所有以『示』為­偏旁的字,都又『上天或鬼神傳達意旨』的意思。
