  • yey he found out how to play music on the video! and hes probably the first ad oldest vlogger ever

  • A much deserved gripe! That stuff is ridiculous.

  • Much better intro on this video

    Your doing a very good job with these videos.

  • I loved the song and I totally agree!

  • the man wasn't out of order for doing that, silly for such a small thing!

  • Yeah lifting up the tee shirt of a child and kissing them of the belly does seems a wee bit worrying, but I can't see how kissing a child on the forehead means that someone's a pedophile. Gosh the world is in a very sad state of affairs.

  • Hey Peter, I saw your television commercial for Telecom! It was awesome! Everyone at school talk about you heaps! LOL

  • Peter RULES!

  • Really good observation and comment, Peter. I agree with iviv, though, about having to deal with and put into consideration the customs and the cultural background of someone as well as keeping perspective of the setting as whole. So kudos for making a really good and important critical statement about the really saddening thing with the vicar. Mr Putin went, well-meaning / keen for good publicity, a wee bit far for my judgement, but I can deal with it. Nothing "wee bit too far" with the vicar.

  • Its cos hes the president!

  • That is quite ironic about the pope.

    By the way, awesome intro music!

  • I didn't know that the KGB was still in existence. Is it? I thought it was the USSR's secret police and it died with the old government...

  • Pardon me for asking, but what song is playing at the beginning of this great video?

  • At end of the video it says "Music by Queen"

  • Yes it does, but it doesn't state what song it is. Oh, well, my mum has all of Queen's songs on the computer. I'll have to hunt it down.

  • Too Much Love Will Kill You

  • Thanks. But it wasn't the song I have been hunting down for years.

  • you rule dude

  • Hi, just heard about you through wikipedia and started to check your videos out. Anyway, just to play devils advocate regarding the Putin thing, since that happened in Russia it could be a cultural thing. In the same way that if you give someone a business card in Japan you should give it using both your hands, and recieve it with both of them. I don't know about Russian or Chinese culture, but perhaps thats how they do things over there.

    I agree about the vicar thing though. Rediculous waste.

  • Interesting. I do dislike when somethings slide and other don't. We do live an an unjust world so, those things will be going on till we are judged.

  • are you saying that the guy who kissed the girl on the belly made you made or that someone who reported that made you mad?

  • Muggers, Rapists, Murderers and Terrorists, What kind of neighborhood do you live in?

  • I think you are missing the point he was trying to make when he said that.

  • Well Peter, I don't think Putin is a pedophile in any way, but I do think he's Lucifer incarnate and pure evil. Just thought I'd share that with you. Bye.

  • Great observations, Peter. I have subscribed to you, but... have never watched your videos. I was waiting until I had time... TO WATCH THEM FROM THE BEGINNING!!! Well, the slow time of year in my work has come around, and I look forward to enjoying your progression into the sage of YouTube that you have become. Namaste.

  • Woooo Peter likes Queen! He truly is my hero!

  • there is a map of China on the wall

  • That's how we say it over here.

  • i agree with you about that vicar, i think the police do go a little bit too far these days with what they term to be a crime. people can also sue for the most ridiculous things too, i don't get it.

    p.s. is a vicar similar to a priest or minister? i've always thought it was, but i'm from america and i don't hear the term too often

  • Anyway, good video, Peter. I'm just looking through your old videos, after seeing a news report on the "Zimmers go to Hollywood" programme, which is on at Sunday 9pm. These things happen, all of the time. The "authorities" are so biased and discriminating, sometimes, that this seperation has to occur.

  • ...everyone knows who he is, so...err, I doubt he is fake. I don't think he's ever revealed his name on these videos, yet everyone know's it is Peter Oakely. And, to be honest, if this was a fake, with all of the - unwanted - media coverage he's received, it would've been reported on their first, before/instead of your stupid, little websites.

  • I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU geriatric1927 !!!

    its just soo injust.

    the world today *sigh*

    the things make me really annoyed!

    =p

    Ruthiee

  • dude do you know this guy is actually a fake. and he is not a guy its a girl dressed as an old guy. she is an acter from new zealand and she was told to do this. if you dont believe wich i bet you wont type in geriatric1927 is a fake on search and it will all be reaveled. its shocking i know but its something the public must know.

  • 0_o The girls.... belly?

    And does anyone know what KGB stands for?

  • "Komitet Gosudarstvennoy Bezopasnosti" or, the Committee for State Security

  • i hate this kind of thing

  • Wow, thats a big case of in-justice

  • I cant beleive the Vicar actually got the sack or even that someone reported this stupid "crime" is mind bogling to me.

  • ridicilous

  • I agree with you. I hate it when people make a huge deal of things and fire someone for doing nothing wrong. I guess it's a cultural thing.

  • I think justsing333 has summed that up perfectly.

    Have to be aware of these things and realise there are sexual predators out there, but whoever reported was completely in the wrong. They had the right reasons behind their decision, but they've got carried away and its cost an innocent and good man his job!

    Shocking!

  • hes a fake. or should i say she is a fake. type in geriatric1927 is a fake on the youtube search and it will all be revealed. she is an actor from new zealand and a very good one cuz she sounds as an old guy to..

  • Yeah whatever, he has been on the BBC and everythnig. You are just gullible ok?! Becuase i know he isnt a fake, yes i KNOW!

    lol!

  • you know wat i did fell for it. but you cant blame me that other video about him being fake was so convinceing and you are right i am so gullible. now i know to!lol

  • Yeah! what Porcupine07 said!

  • youre absolutely right sir. we could all do ourselves a big favor and listen to the wisdom of the Elder generation

  • I agree with you completely. Society today seems to be so overly analytical about things. I mean, obviously we need to be conscious of the existence on sexual assault,but sometimes people tend to get carried away. The vicar did nothing wrong, and because the media got a hold of the "controversy" and people have made such a fuss, it has cost him his job.

  • The world is really upside down...

  • Oh yeah, the incident with the vicar is much like the way people are here. It's disgusting I agree, but I understand their way of thinking with all the negative publicity on pedophiles, it's making people senile.

  • I love your videos. I know this is an older one but OMG to have a man have to resign for kissing a child on the head is absurd!

  • Spot on, Peter! Such a good point, and you are more "with it" than some folks half your age.

  • yeah

  • I agree. There are people that over react to anything physical and call it sexual harassment. Hugging or kissing is not allowed in elementary school.

  • fosho mannn, you're rightt :o

  • u listen to the best music ever man, and ur views are ace! im gona watch all 75 of ur vids!

  • i actually love you

  • i agree with you totally.

  • dude thats pretty messed up

  • erichblueace - Don't be so stupid! The guys great and its idiots like you who don't listen to what he's saying. He is either looking down, possibly at notes or, like my grandad used to, closes his eyes when he's trying to think. Get a life & leave it out. Ali

  • thats the weirdest shizz

  • That IS rather stupid. I really disagree with the whole "police" sort of system, and this is just more evidence how stupid and corrupt the whole thing is.

  • Completely agree with you in this vid!!! I cannot believe that someone would see that and think that he should be reported !! MADNESS! even with that said I think that there is not enough done to protect our kids but that is not the way to do it!!!!

  • I agree!

  • As I get older I fully appreciate what this man has to say - essencially the world is going stupid - it seems with age sometimes comes a fair bit of wisdom

  • You deduce that all by yourself?

    Old men aren't stereotypically wise or anything.

    Nah i'm just kiddin' you're alright.

  • incredulously interesting. i always find it informative to hear the bits of life from someone else's point of view. i think your right tho, its a load of b.s.

  • loving your vids. Hearing what you're saying! Keep it up.

  • I love these vids. It's 'cos you are such a needle in the haystack of tubers....an experienced person with valid views and with the best reason for tubing......to communicate. Thanks and please keep it up

  • some event, i dont know what it was, i dont know if they said what it was but i dont know what it was. :D:D

  • That is just wrong! My local vicar was murdered a few weeks back, he was much loved. You might have saw it on the news, now if the police hadn't taken the time out to question a Vicar about kissing a girl on the forehead they would have arrived quicker!

  • god im good, i knew that song was by queen.. lol

  • I like what you do, it's great,

    keep it up

  • Well, descending from Soviet ancestry I can understand why Mr. Putin would kiss a girl on her belly. It just doesn't seem all that weird to me.

  • loll i love how you said "PEEdophile".

  • that's how us brits pronounce it.

  • It would be correct, it's how you would say pediatrics. (not PED-e-atrix but PEE de atrix). We just stopped pronouncing it correctly with Michael Jackson.

  • im with you mate you speak the truth,carry on makin vids

  • couldn't agree with you more, geriatric

  • Old geezer says 'people might not get the whole story' and get the wrong idea, but in these 'political correctness gone mad' stories there's usually more to the story than presented. Not saying any reason to believe the vicar did wrong but I don't know full facts why he was forced to resign a governership.

  • About the belly-kisssing Putin thing, I think that was a boy he kissed on the belly... That's fucked up nontheless. I mean what the was that guy thinking about?! Did he get nostalgic about his days in the KGB and decided to practice one of his torture techniques, but realised that he was in public and decided to cover it all up by kissing the kid in the belly?

  • I remember this news story, was totally crazy

  • wow the poor vicar. 20 years ago that would've been fine but not anymore. jeez the era we live in.

  • "And the important work of harassing us motorists" Hehehe!

    "What's that all about?" Good question, what IS that about? Hmm, I can't think of a reason why, how odd!

    Nice blog by the way, I've seen a good few of yours, it's nice to have a bit of variety on YouTube for a change :)

  • Quite an appropriate gripe. What a culture today's society reflects where a 12 year old can become pregnant without any one even raising a question but a vicar can't express his appreciation of talent by blessing this kid with a peck on her forehead.

  • It's a good rant, I agree with it. Besides the whole "harrasing our motorist". If getting drunk drivers, and people who kill our innocence is harrassment, then, we are all in trouble.

    The police, have no choice but to follow up on cases. It hardly has anything to do with them. Just the stupidity of whomever called them.

  • "What's that all about?" LOL Those crazy russkies...

    I remember that vicar story. Crazy innit? The person the cops should really worry about is the nutter that called them to report the vicar. What kind of freak sees a kiss on the forehead of a child and thinks of it sexually? A total perv, that's who!

  • wanna see a gd vid type in "karl and ric get drunk" its gd trust me!!

  • I totally agree with what U said. I should probably watch the news more often but, the news usually shows something that is 95% devestating and only 5% encouraging or happy.

  • u make sense even when im drunk

  • do all old people close their eyes whilst talking?

    yeah and political do-gooders and treehuggers gone mad.

  • PRETTY CRAZY!!

  • I think it has something to do with public opinion. Maybe dude (bloke, whatever) wasn't fired because his actions were wrong, but maybe to ease the publics opinion of the school. I mean, even presidents have been known to lie to sway public opinion. Its just the schools way of saying "Yea, we fired him. We did something about it. His fault, not ours."

  • how right you are, what's this country coming to??

  • SO AWESOME

  • agree 100%

  • YOU GO MAN !!!

  • Where I live, if you get an ignorant deputy or ignorant D.A., you could get arrested for taking a tinkle along the highway (I'm not saying it's not gross, but sometimes necessary). Then after you've been arrested for public indecency you will have to file, for the rest of your life, as a sex offender!

  • Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional illogical liberal minority, rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous liberal press which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

  • You have serious issues if you think news stations owned by GE, Disney, Vivendi, Time Warner, etc., you seriously need to have your head checked.

  • you are cool, GO YOU!!! :)

  • your great! tuning in every day to find out more. : D

  • i agree! and you are getting brill at your video productions now, Ooooo mr Spielberg :) YOUR AWESOME

  • That is so right i hate getting pulled over

  • You are Damm right my friend! Political correctness has gone too far... I hate the nanny state we live in.

  • I wouldn't call the guy who kissed the girl on the forehead a pediafile

  • untill i was seven i lived on the same street. I don't know why exactly the new neighbours didn't like us, but our house was egged and one night our window was shot through with an air rifle. When we called the police they said there was nothing they could do, even though we knew the names and address of the people who had done this. So we put our house on the market and six months later we moved.

  • I hate to sound like some rightwingnut, but if ADULTS cannot interact with children in an normal manner, then the govt will hire professional social workers always on video-cam to fill in. What next, video-cams to monitor parents' behavior?

  • your cool

  • your mad!

  • I just seen the photo and my first reaction is that it felt real creepy to me. I dont think that was a good move on his part.

  • that kiss on the stomach was reaaaaally weird. i kinda thought putin was a mellow guy [im not sure if im using the right words here but..] and that just sounds real funny to me, having heard of him quite a lot being a neighbour country and all.. wow

  • is he god?

  • Now thats just evil. He kissed her on the forehead and got arrested? Pathetic.

    I think its the fact that there have been molestation cases with preists, that people generalise and as soon as they hear the words "preist/vicar", "child" and "kissed" they instantly condemn the vicar. This world has gone mad.

  • The world has gone mad, seriously. You can't even take a video camera to a school concert now. A teacher films it and then the parents can buy copies of it. What is the world coming to?

  • horray for the queen music!

  • Im so glad I am about to retire! I use to kiss kids I wanted them to trust and love cops! NOw in our little city a fireman or Policeman can't even hold hands with a child!

  • We all wish we were as cool as you.

  • yes very intersting ! he should get the jail then hehe

  • all the older people who are on youtube should all come together and make a dedicated show. It'd be great

  • The KGB doesn't exist anymore.

  • I believe it is called the FSB now.

  • or isn't it?

  • very nice. Those couple of incidents seem fairly odd... that's the way things work today for you.

  • Nice :d you're real fun :d

  • your views are interesting!!! great job!! congrats!and merry xmas!

  • VERY interesting :P Food for thought!

  • your stories make my day:D thank you!

  • Thats such a funny and probably unique observation.

  • lo admiro =)  saludos from México.

  • I Love Freddy Mercury, he whas and he will be allways the best.

  • Thats pretty ridiculous! Some people can over-react in some pretty amazing ways.

  • go to LONG BEACHIN WITH MO

    here on you tube, for interview with inspiring free hugs band and hugger Juan Mann/it will re-new your views and give you a "warm fuzzy" feeling. go on I dare you.

    Hugs:).

  • you're great!  i love your stories.

  • I love it. And you've got good taste with the song you chose to open the vid: "Too much love will kill you" by Queen and the great Freddie Mercury.

  • this vicar gets fired for kissing a girl's forehead, buta kiss on the stomach seems to be acceptable in Russia. why did the west get so up tight?

  • i can remember a few years back when a 5 year old boy was scolded and reprimanded, and his mother questioned, when he kissed another 5 year old girl on the cheek!

    this new and intense fear of any and all physical contact between two human beings has gotten to ridiculous levels. it's as though there's no such thing as innocence anymore.

    it's incredibly depressing.

    though i admit putin kissing kids on the belly is a bit odd.  but maybe that's a russian thing that i'm just not privy to.

  • Excellent commentary!

  • this is the best video you have ever made

  • your still awsome man, i have to tell you i didnt get it so it wasnt my favorite, but u still own

  • yeah, the whole Putin kissing the little girl on the stomach thing seems a bit odd.

  • Your 5 minutes monologue, about the 'incident' with the vicar and the police, in comparison with other cultures reaction were packed in quite a few thought stimulating examples. The West seems to be turning from the bastion of Freedom, into a paranoic nerve-wreck imbued with excessive political correctness.

  • Psychologists have long established, that in western societies (specially nordic), people have a subconscious yearning to be touched, to the point that there are hasty, not well thought-out sexual encounters, to compensate for that. I don't advocating impolite touches, but I think our society suffers as a consequence of these extraordinarly strict prohibitions.

  • Turning?

  • Meaning?

  • It turned a long time ago.

  • Ok, then the last 40-50 yrs must have been only the tightening in the already emplaced screws. Don't forget our mature storyteller found it strange, so it must have happened within his lifetime no?

  • One problem is that people have forgotten to think for themselves, some have never even learned. People let the media and governments tell them how and what to think as well as what to do. Where's the common sense, taking responsibility for your own actions and respect, not just for you but for others as well?

  • Storytelling at it's finest

  • Hah! I saw news footage on the local news a month or so ago where Putin did the same thing to a little boy about the same age, six or so. Very odd indeed.

  • I agrre with you that what happened to the Vicar was terrible. It should never have happened. On the flipside though, the police can't be blamed for taking action. Whether they agreed with it or not - if a member of the public makes a complaint they HAVE to follow it up. They were just doing their job.

  • you know what kined of peaple only do their job

  • our priest used to kiss people on the forhead and it was in no way dirty, it was a form of blessing.

  • Look forward to viewing more of your video's

  • queen rocks

    and you rock

  • I simply can't stop laughting about the ones that can spend so much time watching this guys video just to have something to critizice. Is so simple; don't like it, don't wathc it!!! personely I like his videos, keep posting.

  • i cant see why this guy is so popular- its boring-

    dull, depressing, meaningless.

  • mark8999, you're a douche! This guy is awesome!

  • then don't comment you stupid piece of shit.

  • So many ignorant people reply negative comments about this man simply because they are scared to think

  • So nice to see an intelligently phrased comment with proper punctuation and spelling. Come on, folks, make an effort!

  • It's always a pleasure to listen to things you have to say. ;-)

  • will you be my grandpa PLEASE? lol

  • Bloody right too. The "handwringers" as they seem to have become known have really gone too far. "Policital correctness gone mad" was a phrase which popped up a few yrs back but people really are getting fed up to the back teeth now. I don't know what the answer is but a lot of people just need to buck their ideas up and stop getting on the case of everyday normal people.

  • I agree with weihoozie! I like your videos and I think it's great that we've got not just young people posting on here. Who else better to hear stories from than someone who's already been there and done that? With age comes wisdom. Keep posting geriatric!!

  • frenchie your are an idiot.. what do you mean no one cares? he is the second most subscribed blogger on youtube, the first one is lonelygirl.

  • o it is i wrote that comnt before i saw the end

  • Is That Queen?

  • Careful, He'll ban you like steve did ;)

  • why do bloggers get popular and people who actually have to try to make there vids and work on them no one seems to watch it doesent make sense to me how a negative old man
