My favourite Prince Phillip moment was when he was greeting the nurses at a hospital opening. “Hello, where are you from?” “The Phillipines” “And where are you from?” “The Phillipines” “And you?” “The Phillipines” “Are there any people left there?” 😂
One of my favourite Philipisms was from back in the 70’s when his train was delayed and he was at a small rail station and the station master was told to ‘keep the Duke entertained’ This poor station master approached him and said: “your royal Highness, I’m here to entertain you until your train arrives” To which Philip replied “what are you a fucking juggler?” 😂😂
I met him once on the QE2 when I was a kid. He was interacting with the group of American kids and they were talking his ear off. He turned to me and asked "and you, what have you got to say?" I just smiled, nodded, and said "sir" mainly because I was nervous. He said "oh, good lad" as he patted my head. He was so happy that I didn't say anything further, he didn't want to keep listening lolol.
He clearly had a high level of awareness. It follows that he understood the need to deflect criticism from Elizabeth by bringing it on himself with the comments he made. To put it in entertainment terms, he played the funny man to Elizabeth's straight man. Or maybe he just thought "what are they going to do, fire me?" Either way, totally based.
My uncle met him and didn’t even realise. They were on one of their visits to Australia and my uncle (in his early teens) was riding his push bike home from doing some fishing. He got home and told my grandmother that this big procession of cars was going passed and the fanciest car slowed down and an old guy asked him if he’d caught anything. He showed him his fish and the old guy said “well done lad”. My grandmother was like “that was the Queen and Prince Phillip you idiot”.

Prince Philip visited our navy highschool in the early 90s. We had nothing but old soviet hand me downs from the 60-70s . Talked to us a lot, had a look at our barracks (was shocked at our blankets , which he thought were for animals) , had a look at our sail boats (2 for 60+ boys) . Came, shook hands, went away. We expected the same we would get from a minister/president/admiral visit. Week of hard work cleaning followed by a free day . That is not what would happen. The very next month we started getting stuff. Army blankets totaly new, new radios, PCs (we had 2 old ones for the whole school), then older boys would go to UK on exchanges fir the summer. We would have trips to UK to see modern and historical ships. We got books , knives and other gear. The prince was a great man.
Queen Elizabeth spent her life building relations and friendships between the people of the world. Prince Phillip spent his life dunking on those same people
One story I remeber about Philip was that once when he visited the white house he snuck away from the party to have drinks with the waiting and serving staff and was reportedly very candid and down to earth with them. It kinda disproves what a lot of the media says about him in all honesty. The guy was just a normal guy who just happened to marry the most famous woman on the planet.

He was real, down-to-earth and I think a lot of people felt that real connection with him, unlike other royals or politicians (LOL). He was a men's man first and royalty second.
@@PiterburgCowboyI wouldn’t say she was grumpy she just took her duties and position seriously. She was the straight man to Philip’s funny man although she too did have some rare one liners and based moments herself. Like during the Olympics in England when she death stared a camera man for watching her pick her Finger nails or at a gathering when someone was being obnoxious and talking over her she shouted “Why does he have to be so loud!” On the more sentimental side one of the last things she did before her passing she “met” with Paddington Bear for her grand kids and great grandkids.
Something my paternal grandfather did. Since his 50th birthday, he used to saying: "I would rather die than deal with the headache." Well, he died 92 years old...
Didn't King Charles lose it over an ink pen not working properly in front of the media and Camilia had to whisper something in his ear to calm him? I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Cheers!🎉
So he married into royalty, had a marriage that lasted 73 years, 4 kids and God knows how many grandkids and great grandkids, and lived to be a hundred. This guy cracked the code.
As far as I'm concerned, if you've made it to 90, been married to the same woman for over 60 years and are still working a six-day week, you can say what you bloody-well want. And we're poorer without him, God rest his shade.
He and the Queen were the only ones in the royal family that I had any level of respect for. They were a different generation, and despite their high positions, seemed like relatively down to Earth people, though of the two I would imagine Philip was the most down to Earth because he wasn't the Queen. She had a mask she had to wear while in public and when the cameras were rolling. Had to be nice to people no matter what kind of painful comments they made or stupid questions they asked. No wonder she didn't make it to a hundred, it's a wonder she made it to 50 with those expectations. Dealing with people is extremely stressful and the Prince was like comic relief. He didn't give a shit, if he had something out of pocket to say, by God he was going to say it. The mass cricket bat bludgeoning thing is the pinnacle of that. He said what was on his mind, and sure, maybe it was inappropriate, and maybe both him and the Queen were supposed to stay out of politics, but honestly I think more people need to hear that.
@lsswappedcessna How exactly do you know they were down to Earth? You don't because we don't know them. I don't care which one of them it is the monarchy shouldn't exist in this day and age. I remember seeing the old queen giving a speech in front of a golden fricking piano. That is excessive wealth when some of us peasants have to go to food banks. When she finally died, they should have ended it right there and then.
@@erinirvine7588do you honestly think you'd be any less broke if the monarchy was ended? The US doesn't have a monarchy, people there are still broke. One has nothing to do with the other. If you're really looking for the problem, look for the people that create and control the money and charge compounding interest. With a system like that, declining value of the money is inevitable and all of the declining value goes to them. That's a bigger factor than even the entire government itself, though they are related issues.
I remember my Dad saying she wouldn't make another year with her husband dead. He was right she had to go join him in the afterlife because she missed the Lolz.
Amen. Have to admit I'm surprised thst the argument I've been making with hammers in recent years, he made back in the '90's with Cricket Bats 😁👌 HRH's an absolute legend 🫡
Prince Harry was once a hunter and shooter. He owned high quality custom made rifles. When he got with Meghan she insisted he get rid of them and he did because he's a simp.
He was a Great man who cared for Military and the people who are serving the Country to keep it safe place overall. The Duke of Edinburgh foundation has done fantastic things over the years under his guidance for the youth hopefully it will be continued for many years to come.
When he met my mum at some point during some sort of Duke of Edinburgh award thing when she was quite young, he commented on the cupcakes she'd baked saying something like "You've been making glue have you?"
I have seen Indian Electrical installations. It is a miracle that the whole country has not gone up in flames every day. Their transformer poles have wires coming from every single angle possible.
India is a miracle, miracle that it's a country, miracle that any kids survive, miracle that they haven't shit themselves to death, miracle they made it to space. It's really a testament to humanity thriving when there's nothing.

One of my favourite quotes by PP is when he met the dance group Diversity in 2009 at the Royal Variety Performance and asked them; "Are you all one family?"
I am 100% Prince Phillip and DJT had really good laugh together. DJT obviously complimented HMTQ but Prince Phillip must had been man of his own heart.
So this dude basically looked at Elizabeth like "I don't give a fuck if she's the queen. She's my WIFE." I hope we all find someone that's so loving and based.
I Was serving at 43 Commando years ago, back then Philip was our commandant general. The unit we were at was being renamed and Philip was there to do the dedication. We were holding the dedication in the senior rates mess. The lads were in a big circle having a chuckle with HRH....then one of the units Sergeant Majors bounced over (black guy, really good bloke, really animated but quite loud and brash) cracks a shit joke and then moves on. Philip turns to us all.....blows air through his cheeks and with raised eyebrows says "well.......I suppose we let one slip through the net every now & then!" We all pissed ourselfs laughing....his handlers all went crimson!😂😂
@O-bearer-mine he was funny...but really frail and a lot smaller than I thought he actually was! Mind you, he was probably pushing his late 80's back then.
I should not have started watching this while having a beer. Half of it is all over my desk, the other half on my cat. Cheers Dank. Refreshing to have something to laugh at in these times.
The only thing I ever held against Queen Mother. She didn't like Diana and let Diana to feel it. I kinda get the whole "she preferred William over Harry" thing (because Harry isn't Charles's son, fight me) but if it's true that Diana's grandmother(!) turned Queen Mother against Diana, she was pettier than I would like.
another good one was when someone was complimenting the Queen on how flawless the skin on her face was, Phillip enthusiastically added it was the same all over her body 😂
That whole "Do you still chuck spears "thing was a reference to that particular tribes tradition which involved actually throwing spears. The press will use things out of context to sell papers. Danks of all people should understand that. He was an old school navy man, with all the old fashioned "spade a spade" language that that entails. Just because someone is posh, doesn't mean they can't be pretty rough and blunt.
Same with the “slanty eyes” thing - it was a dig at the fact that travelling Chinese students were (are?) warned not to go round-eyed by being away too long. He was a cheeky jokester.
My favourite Prince Philip story was told to me by a navy man whose base was visited by Philip. According to this bloke, when there's a royal visit or an inspection from the top brass, it's pretty common for the base commander to choose an out of the way alley and put all the rubbish bins, junk, etc down it, then barricade it off to keep all the messy stuff out of sight. The thing was, as Philip was an old Navy hand, he knew all about this trick, so on this royal visit he saw the barricade and, for a laugh, said "Ooh, what's down here then?" and marched straight towards the garbage alley with the base commander frantically trying to work out how to stop him and get him back on track.
That "I should've stayed in the Navy" comment was really telling. If somebody like Longshanks was forced to live Prince Phillip's life, he would either go crazy or try to have as much fun as possible.
Sometimes self-improvement involves being honest with yourself. I am honest about my stubbornness but I also realise I’m too stubborn to change it. It’s not always a good thing to be yourself if it carries negative traits. Takes courage for that level of honesty.
Prince Philip, despite his title, was certainly a master of the art of trolling. His sharp tongue and willingness to challenge the status quo, often with a playful or provocative edge, would have earned him high regard in the digital age as the "King of Trolls." His ability to push buttons while maintaining his royal composure is something that many internet users would have found both entertaining and admirable, making him a figure they’d proudly rally behind as their monarch in the world of online mischief.
Prince Philip might belong in the Mad Lad category... he is definitely the last potential Mad Lad in that feckless family. He kept HMTQ in line and in stitches.
As an American, I don't know anything about the Royal Family and their shenanigans, but I think that I really like this guy. The world needs more people like him.
I think Elizabeth married the mad lad for his bluntness... Imagine you have a royal duty to be pleasant and posh, and then your husband is there to completely pull you out... "The ride was quite smooth captain, and I do say the musicians on board were quite good" "Alright boys, boats docked, why are we still on, lets get a move on before an iceberg gets revenge for its cousin"
She must have enjoyed it. I think Prince Phillip and Queen Mother must end up really aligning with each other (they started not liking each other, as far as I know), so HMTQ was kinda used to this. She always struck me as being more like her father, King George VI, so she needed this kind of levity in her life, which her mother provided to her father and Prince Phillip provided her.
My ex-girlfriend was a journalist and her editor at the time told us this story about when he was younger journalist and he did a bit of "undercover" photography (before the term Paparazzi was used) and one assignment entailed him sneaking into Sandringham, the Royal Family's Christmas residency, as he wanted to get an exclusive photo of the famous, yet always kept private, Royal Boxing Day shoot. So he dressed in camouflage, sneaked in and hid in some bushes waiting to get a pic. There were the Royals and their chums happily blasting hapless gamebirds into oblivion with a few security types hanging about. So he remained well hidden and out of sight while snapping the odd pic with his long range lens. Suddenly he felt something hard and cold press into the back of his neck. Of course he jumped round to only face Prince Philip himself pointing a double barrelled shot gun right in his face! As it was a bitterly cold Boxing Day a single drip of snot formed on Philips nose and hung momentarily from his nostrils before dripping to the ground as Philip simply snarled "Why don't you just fuck right orrrf?"
My Dad served with him and spoke highly of him, the maybe twice ‘the war’ was mentioned whilst growing up. Prince Phillip’s sense of humour was so like my Fathers, my Dad would cringe whenever the news mentioned one of his observations, then belly laugh in tears once or twice, it was nice to see the real guy behind the face of my Father, Duncan Smith, Aberdeen.
"Simply never learned how to stop talking"? Huh... I always got the feeling that Philip, not ever going to be king, rather simply decided to start not giving two shits and a fuck and began dropping his famous lines and saying the darndest things for fun. :DD
Irrelevant humour is I think rather essential when at the top. His wife after all - judging by the last interviews with her - was either similarly based as him, or a lot of it rubbed off on her 😁👌
@@jimtaylor294she was unfathomly based, she is the reason the Saudi's let women drive... She did so by scaring the shit out of the Saudi king blasting round Balmoral in a Land Rover.
I never cared much for Philip, thinking him to be a modern aristocrat with what that description entails, but learning more about his life, his badass service in WW2, his various antics and top notch banter, I figure he was very much fit for the role, and probably a lot more "old school" than people think he was.
I remember way back when I was like 12/11 Him and the Queen came to my home town Melrose for a Jubilee event. I had to wear these tartan trousers for the event and when I was approached by Prince Philip he said to me "nice trousers" then proceeded to speak to some official. To this day that memory still lives in my head rent free.
Honestly, this video completely changed my views on this man… he’s not at all what I thought or believed… he seems like he’s in that small handful of royals who where worthy of some form of respect.
The cantonese quip is also repeated often from china, Prince Phillip might have gotten it from the chinese themselves. Alot of Princr Phillips offensive jokes can only be made by someone who have some deep understanding of the topic hes roasting.
Getting the Queen to stop and look at him open mouthed in a public situation is a real achievement, the Queen was usually so professional that getting her mask to slip is a real achievement.
Your "must be nice" comment really caught me off guard... searched it up and found your twitter post. Condolences man, it really saddens me to know after all these years of following you. All the way back when she was going on about how cute her wee dog was. Well all we can do is pray it all works out for the best I guess. Cheers.
The only way Phillip would have become King of England is if Elizabeth died without children. If Elizabeth had died when Charles was a child then Phillip would probably have been Prince Regent until Charles came of age but probably not King.
The man will forever go down as having some of the best one-liners of all time. Politically incorrect as hell but also insanely funny - love dry, witty, dark humour
Philip: “I don’t think a prostitute is more moral than a wife, but they are doing the same thing.” When he is married to the Queen. What an absolute legend.
Philip is not wrong about the Cricket bat its spot on banning any weapon gives the monopoly to the criminals and the government neither is your friend. I love Philip he was such a kind and honest man

Something my paternal grandfather did. Since his 50th birthday, he used to saying: "I would rather die than deal with the headache." Well, he died 92 years old...
Didn't King Charles lose it over an ink pen not working properly in front of the media and Camilia had to whisper something in his ear to calm him? I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Cheers!🎉

Have a back up for sure. That would annoy me. Be careful what you wish for i guess@kevins80dads-t3g
So he married into royalty, had a marriage that lasted 73 years, 4 kids and God knows how many grandkids and great grandkids, and lived to be a hundred.
This guy cracked the code.
He was royal by birth.

He was already from the royal house of Denmark/Greece.

@@tinycockjock1967 unfortunately, dankula got recently divorced, and this was his quick jab at the situation
As far as I'm concerned, if you've made it to 90, been married to the same woman for over 60 years and are still working a six-day week, you can say what you bloody-well want.
And we're poorer without him, God rest his shade.
This is true
Work? When did he or any of them work?
He and the Queen were the only ones in the royal family that I had any level of respect for. They were a different generation, and despite their high positions, seemed like relatively down to Earth people, though of the two I would imagine Philip was the most down to Earth because he wasn't the Queen. She had a mask she had to wear while in public and when the cameras were rolling. Had to be nice to people no matter what kind of painful comments they made or stupid questions they asked. No wonder she didn't make it to a hundred, it's a wonder she made it to 50 with those expectations. Dealing with people is extremely stressful and the Prince was like comic relief. He didn't give a shit, if he had something out of pocket to say, by God he was going to say it.
The mass cricket bat bludgeoning thing is the pinnacle of that. He said what was on his mind, and sure, maybe it was inappropriate, and maybe both him and the Queen were supposed to stay out of politics, but honestly I think more people need to hear that.
@lsswappedcessna How exactly do you know they were down to Earth? You don't because we don't know them. I don't care which one of them it is the monarchy shouldn't exist in this day and age. I remember seeing the old queen giving a speech in front of a golden fricking piano. That is excessive wealth when some of us peasants have to go to food banks. When she finally died, they should have ended it right there and then.
@@erinirvine7588do you honestly think you'd be any less broke if the monarchy was ended? The US doesn't have a monarchy, people there are still broke. One has nothing to do with the other. If you're really looking for the problem, look for the people that create and control the money and charge compounding interest. With a system like that, declining value of the money is inevitable and all of the declining value goes to them. That's a bigger factor than even the entire government itself, though they are related issues.
Watching the queen fighting back tears as she sat alone at Prince Phillip's funeral absolutely broke me... I'll admit I shed a tear for the old man
That was when I knew they were broken, and so were we.
I remember my Dad saying she wouldn't make another year with her husband dead. He was right she had to go join him in the afterlife because she missed the Lolz.

It's how you know he wasn't into tyranny.
He was a Great man who cared for Military and the people who are serving the Country to keep it safe place overall. The Duke of Edinburgh foundation has done fantastic things over the years under his guidance for the youth hopefully it will be continued for many years to come.

Prince Philip probably would have been way too spicy for old twitter if he got his hands on an account but man it would have been glorious if he did.

He'd too be arrested for hurting feelings on the internet.
I am 100% Prince Phillip and DJT had really good laugh together. DJT obviously complimented HMTQ but Prince Phillip must had been man of his own heart.
TRUTH!
A single sentence sums up Philip. “Blunt as a sledgehammer through fine China.”
So this dude basically looked at Elizabeth like "I don't give a fuck if she's the queen. She's my WIFE." I hope we all find someone that's so loving and based.
I Was serving at 43 Commando years ago, back then Philip was our commandant general.
The unit we were at was being renamed and Philip was there to do the dedication. We were holding the dedication in the senior rates mess.
The lads were in a big circle having a chuckle with HRH....then one of the units Sergeant Majors bounced over (black guy, really good bloke, really animated but quite loud and brash) cracks a shit joke and then moves on. Philip turns to us all.....blows air through his cheeks and with raised eyebrows says "well.......I suppose we let one slip through the net every now & then!" We all pissed ourselfs laughing....his handlers all went crimson!😂😂
I can imagine that was wild.
What an honour that you were there to see it. 😂
@O-bearer-mine he was funny...but really frail and a lot smaller than I thought he actually was! Mind you, he was probably pushing his late 80's back then.

Phil was a gent, he was the only member of the family that was on Dianas side when her and Charles split. Even back then he knew his son was a knob.
The only thing I ever held against Queen Mother. She didn't like Diana and let Diana to feel it. I kinda get the whole "she preferred William over Harry" thing (because Harry isn't Charles's son, fight me) but if it's true that Diana's grandmother(!) turned Queen Mother against Diana, she was pettier than I would like.
Godspeed Philip, you absolute madman. We miss you.

That whole "Do you still chuck spears "thing was a reference to that particular tribes tradition which involved actually throwing spears. The press will use things out of context to sell papers. Danks of all people should understand that. He was an old school navy man, with all the old fashioned "spade a spade" language that that entails. Just because someone is posh, doesn't mean they can't be pretty rough and blunt.
Same with the “slanty eyes” thing - it was a dig at the fact that travelling Chinese students were (are?) warned not to go round-eyed by being away too long. He was a cheeky jokester.

@@Excelnaught-f4bthe joke in Cantonese would herald the coming of Cthulhu
My favourite Prince Philip story was told to me by a navy man whose base was visited by Philip. According to this bloke, when there's a royal visit or an inspection from the top brass, it's pretty common for the base commander to choose an out of the way alley and put all the rubbish bins, junk, etc down it, then barricade it off to keep all the messy stuff out of sight.
The thing was, as Philip was an old Navy hand, he knew all about this trick, so on this royal visit he saw the barricade and, for a laugh, said "Ooh, what's down here then?" and marched straight towards the garbage alley with the base commander frantically trying to work out how to stop him and get him back on track.
That "I should've stayed in the Navy" comment was really telling. If somebody like Longshanks was forced to live Prince Phillip's life, he would either go crazy or try to have as much fun as possible.
He was honest to himself. Not many people can say that about themselves.
Sometimes self-improvement involves being honest with yourself. I am honest about my stubbornness but I also realise I’m too stubborn to change it. It’s not always a good thing to be yourself if it carries negative traits. Takes courage for that level of honesty.
Honest to himself? So in other words, he was literally based as opposed to being debased.
Prince Philip, despite his title, was certainly a master of the art of trolling. His sharp tongue and willingness to challenge the status quo, often with a playful or provocative edge, would have earned him high regard in the digital age as the "King of Trolls." His ability to push buttons while maintaining his royal composure is something that many internet users would have found both entertaining and admirable, making him a figure they’d proudly rally behind as their monarch in the world of online mischief.
Prince Philip might belong in the Mad Lad category... he is definitely the last potential Mad Lad in that feckless family. He kept HMTQ in line and in stitches.

I hope he was rewarded for that lol.
That was just awesome. Gems of humanity.
Elizabeth must’ve been the patron saint of “dealing with your hubbies bullshit”
She must have enjoyed it. I think Prince Phillip and Queen Mother must end up really aligning with each other (they started not liking each other, as far as I know), so HMTQ was kinda used to this. She always struck me as being more like her father, King George VI, so she needed this kind of levity in her life, which her mother provided to her father and Prince Phillip provided her.
Liz had a good sense of humour from what I've seen of her after her death. 😊
My ex-girlfriend was a journalist and her editor at the time told us this story about when he was younger journalist and he did a bit of "undercover" photography (before the term Paparazzi was used) and one assignment entailed him sneaking into Sandringham, the Royal Family's Christmas residency, as he wanted to get an exclusive photo of the famous, yet always kept private, Royal Boxing Day shoot. So he dressed in camouflage, sneaked in and hid in some bushes waiting to get a pic. There were the Royals and their chums happily blasting hapless gamebirds into oblivion with a few security types hanging about. So he remained well hidden and out of sight while snapping the odd pic with his long range lens. Suddenly he felt something hard and cold press into the back of his neck. Of course he jumped round to only face Prince Philip himself pointing a double barrelled shot gun right in his face! As it was a bitterly cold Boxing Day a single drip of snot formed on Philips nose and hung momentarily from his nostrils before dripping to the ground as Philip simply snarled "Why don't you just fuck right orrrf?"
The things he said was typical of a sailor's sense of humour. You can leave a ship but you can never stop being a sailor. I love and miss the man ❤
so what you're saying is:
you can take the man out of the sea,
but you can't take the sea out of the man?
My Dad served with him and spoke highly of him, the maybe twice ‘the war’ was mentioned whilst growing up. Prince Phillip’s sense of humour was so like my Fathers, my Dad would cringe whenever the news mentioned one of his observations, then belly laugh in tears once or twice, it was nice to see the real guy behind the face of my Father, Duncan Smith, Aberdeen.
"Simply never learned how to stop talking"? Huh... I always got the feeling that Philip, not ever going to be king, rather simply decided to start not giving two shits and a fuck and began dropping his famous lines and saying the darndest things for fun. :DD

I never cared much for Philip, thinking him to be a modern aristocrat with what that description entails, but learning more about his life, his badass service in WW2, his various antics and top notch banter, I figure he was very much fit for the role, and probably a lot more "old school" than people think he was.
