A giant inflatable duck that paddled into Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour a decade ago has returned to the city, joined by a second yellow companion. The 18-metre (59ft) tall duo will be stationed for two weeks at the Central and Western District promenade. Created by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman, the original duck was first displayed in Hong Kong in 2013.

He could easily put one in every city for permanent display. But by rotating them between countries he has kept them relevant and newsworthy.
That’s really smart.
We don't need it for our beautiful harbour, it's an eyesore.
Also less polution...
@@Hkchinese888 "our" why u lying?
@@dexorne9753 No, I'm not lying, our harbour is the most beautiful in the world.
We don't need bs
@@Hkchinese888 you don't even live im hong kong
We need more things like this. It’s the silly stuff that makes the world go round
This, does put a smile on my face.
I haven't heard of these guys since 2013. Glad to see they're back!
What fun! I had tiny ones for the bath and a pull toy as a kid. Such sweet memories.
Aww they’re so cute and bring back toddler memories 😂😂 (I bathed with rubber ducks)
"Double duck, double luck" -What the ... 😂
F*
Ahhh this is so cute 💛
Dear lord, I didn't believe I would live to see the arrival of Bubber Ducky's prodigal return.
😁😁 i remember those duck, even my wallpaper was those duck 😄😄.
cutest spy balloons ever?
That’s pretty cool, I’ll make sure to visit the ducks if I pass by the area
awww two Mr. Duckies
I don't have any childhood memories with rubber ducks like other people, but my sons have them now because I always put rubber ducks into the tub when I bath them. 😊
So cute
I would like to see one that’s 5 time bigger
TEH EPIK DUCK IS BACK!!!
YEAAA OUR HERO IS BACK
Nice to see both giant yellow ducks, hope the one come back again and keep floating on sea side
I want to see an even bigger duck lol then half a dozen babies 🐤 ❤
Cute❤
Not only is Bubber Ducky 2 finally confirmed, but it now includes co-op.
TEH EPIC DUCK!
ITS BEEN A DECADE ALREADY??
This induced a terrible bout of nostalgia for Hong Kong, along with wistfully wishing I could be there right now, but then I remembered ‘The Bit With The Ducks ( James Veitch is a terrible roommate!)
,’
Mr Weasely: What's the function of this Rubber Duck?
yes double duck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At 1:30 of the video, it says the two ducks will stay afloat for two weeks. I wonder where they go after that?... 🐤🐤
This is my spirit animal.
so beautiful
I'm glad I got to see them over the weekend. Many Filipino tourists were in Hong Kong last weekend because the June 12 Independence Day holiday made it a three-day weekend and some like me took a day's leave from work on Friday to make it four days.
You haven't brought the ducks to the puget sounds, seattle.
TEH EPIK DUCK IS COMING!!!
Next time lets bring in 3 ducks
Three little ducklings were dragged to court. The judge gave them the eye and ask "What brings three lil ducklings to my court!? You..", he said pointing to the first lil duckling, "What were you doing?" The 1st duckling replied, "I was blowing bubbles in the park." "So, what were you doing to get into trouble ?", the Judge inquired of the 2nd duckling. "I was also blowing bubbles.", the 2nd duckling told the judge. The judge perplexed looked at the 3rd one and said "Tell me the truth. What were you doing when these 2 were blowing bubbles?". The 3rd duckling squeaked, "I am Bubbles."
A rubber winnie the pooh would be much, much better
There are a lot of winnie the pooh sold in China Disneyland. You juwt gobble up rumours like the peasant you are
I prefer a blow up Modi
I think it will be nicer if the second duck is a bit smaller than the original duck
Thanks South China Morning Post! Then maybe just go on to cover some of those, let s say, a bit more "complicated" subjects here in HK today......
What would be more fun if you can ride the duck lol!
Mega Rubber Ducky ! They are cute. Sigh, if we had those here, people would shoot them 😒
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂SO CUTE
It's King and Queen duckie.
i guess giant inflatable ducks are more important than feeding the poor
Kawaii かわいい❤Selini (Sally)
There’s more than 1 now 🤣🤣
What the Duck?!!
Sadly the "friend" burst. A bit like Hong Kong itself which has become a police state where ducks who speak against the government are tried for sedition and thrown in jail.
No glory in Hong Kong these days.
I dont know why but these ducks remind me about something happened at Tiananmen Square
Lol, those are sitting ducks
Wow that's awesome 👍😍😁
What is the use of it?
I googled HK's national anthem, it turned out ‘ Glory to HK’
😂😂
😂 That's because Google is in connivance with the so-called "pro-democracy" activists.
Nobody cared what you say Indian
Google's CEO is Pakistani
Cute
Why not try this - The SnowBall Fighter, a yellow duck game
for everyone who thinks is not “rlly big” is it VERY big. How do I know? I’ve seen it before 😊
I was there a decade ago...
China banned searches for "big yellow duck" because the 2013 Hong Kong duck was photoshopped into Tiananmen Square images in place of the tanks. So I'm a bit surprised they allowed this art installation to appear again and so soon after the Tiananmen Square anniversary. Maybe the timing was deliberate by the artist. If so these two ducks may represent two things. Luck and also as a silent commemoration to Tiananmen.
I think you guy put too much credit in Tiananmen propaganda and China not as strict as it sound it ban the search when malicious intent to link it to propaganda not the duck it self.
Yellow rubber ducks endangered the national security of China. One has been successfully assassinated.
I also thought that, but I think the ducks mean that china has become more free, and less authoritarian
@@courtly5982 CCP and HKSAR could like to point out that under the guise of "1 country 2 systems", Hong Kong's "freedom" is "guaranteed" by the Basic Law and not subject to the whims of the CCP and the Politburo (LOL). Contrary to your claim of "more free, less authoritarian", Hong Kong has implemented pre-screening of all election candidates for their "patriotism for China and support for the CCP," and the methods of electing the legislature and district councils are now stacked such that the democratic opposition will never again be elected in any meaningful numbers.

Forgotten like the invasion of Communist Vietnam and colonization of the Phillippines? 😉

After winning the battle, the CCP took control of mainland from the Taiwanese, forcing hundreds of thousands of Taiwanese to seek sanctuary on a tiny island.
Then they stretched their control over Tibet, clapping seven million Tibetans all at once.
Similar actions were taken against the Uyghur community; five million Uyghurs were clapped and the rest were made to work in labour camps.
In addition, the CCP asserted control over a portion of Ladakh and Kashmir in India, as well as the entire thirteen-island cluster of the Paracel Islands, sixteen other chains of islands, and over a hundred reefs in the Spratly region. They also encroached on some of my country's territories.
@Potential face it, your country is weak.
The CCP gained control of mainland China from the Taiwanese after winning the war, resulting in the displacement of Taiwanese individuals who were forced to seek refuge on a tiny island.
then, they extended their authority over Tibet, clapping seven million Tibetans in one go.
Similar actions were taken with regards to the Uyghur population, five million Uyghurs were clapped and the rest forced labor in labor camps.
Furthermore, the CCP proceeded to assert control over a section of Ladakh and Kashmir in India, as well as the entire thirteen-island cluster of the Paracel Islands, an additional sixteen chains of islands, and over a hundred reefs in the Spratly region. They also encroached upon certain territories belonging to my country.
Hilarious. Bunch of fake news.
@Potential face it, your country is weak.
