    people have this much fun in life? Where am I for these 23 years? I am sorry but I am feeling heartbroken. Every second of this video broke me. The amount of happiness oozing from this video is intolerable to me. I never had a moment like this in 23 years. Never felt this, probably never will. World is beautiful but without bondings it's colorless.
    I feel like Ayanami from " Evangelion "

    I always het a sense of nostalgia when looking at the videos these 'vintage' camcorders produce. I'm lucky to be a bit of a hoarder, and old enough to still have some of these cameras I bought new many years ago. I still get them out now and again.

    • @Stallzyx
      @Stallzyx 5 месяцев назад +2

      I went on a bit of a collecting spending spree and bought many different models last year, all mostly in great condition. I have still been yet to take one outside to record though because they're a bit bulky and also a bit worried about some getting water damaged in the unpredictable british weather. Going to do a full haul video at some point though surely
