  • fake. the first 'dong' you filmed on the actual big ben, and then went straight back to the walcky talky.. fakefakefakefake!

  • simple minds have simple pleasures.

  • @MingaMadl They should be 13 or older to be using youtube. If you as a parent don't want your kids around this, then keep them off of youtube. there are much, much, worse out there

  • @millsy1804 this is a very VERY rude comment why can't you be polite - Children read those comments as well  we should not teach them to swear - got it you uneducated person !
