As a Londoner I can safely say this is one of the most amazing representations I have ever seen of the city I call home. It shows the amazing breadth of different people, cultures and stories that this place holds, it's almost overwhelming to watch but that's exactly how London feels at times. I can also appreciate the amount of time this has been shot over, looking at how the London landscape has changed over the years, this work has taken you a very long time, your patience to create a story is insane. It has shown me different sides of London and I have dreamed to work on a video piece for this city, this has just boosted that dream up a few notches. Really incredible work, Oliver and I'm sure it will get the recognition it and yourself deserve.
This is an incredible video, but I feel it should be titled 'London' rather than 'Londoner'. For 90% of the people born and raised in London this video isn't really relatable, too much central London. Coming from a guy who grew up in Kilburn. Amazing photography and editing though, I do appreciate artistic value of the video.
This is a beautiful, breathtaking piece of work. It really encapsulates, as you set out to, the soul of the city, and any Londoner will watch with a swelling of pride. Well done.
This video deserves sooo much more attention... hope somehow the RUclips algorithm shows this video to more people... fascinating editing, showing the beauty of London... and the reason why I chose to stay in this city..based on a decision I made when I came here on a school trip..and now 5 years later.. living in this stressful yet so beautiful city
I just watched it for the 5th time. Oliver there are simply no words to describe the way you create a masterpiece every time you grab your camera and then edit it. Amazing video!!
In all my time on the internet I have NEVER found something as thoughtful, as heartfelt, and as moving as what you created here. Wow. Just... Wow. Thank you!
Hashterix London is one of the greatest cities in the world. There are so many places to eat that you could eat out every night for your entire life and there would still be plenty of places left over. It is a hub of research, multiculturalism, tradition, entertainment, and talent. I’m so lucky to live here.
@@harrietjones1409 yes and you have to pay through your nose if you actually want to enjoy any of it. If you aren't a trust fund baby then you'll never be able to afford to buy a place to live unless you live for years like a pauper, the other option is rent and never save enough to be self sufficient when you've decided it's time to stop working full time.
Man, I first watched this video last year, right after spending three months in London. Then I came to watch it again today, and guess what: eyes fixed for 6 min. Mindblowing. Thank you for sharing this!
This was a really well made video, but it makes me feel a little uncomfortable. I don't want to give unnecessary criticism because it is a great piece of editing, however as someone who grew up in London, a lot seems to be missed when people think of what this city is like. There is an absence of any council estate, of any school - no Chicken shop, greasy spoon, bus stop or Kebab shop. I think for me, this video fails to show that London is somewhere that people grow up in - many of whom are working class. I also think that it is interesting that this video shows why London is such an amazing city - but for a lot of people that grew up in London, much of what is highlighted here is just not a part of their experience. This is I think most obvious when the video contains mostly young professional 20-30 somethings in the city being filmed as the ones experiencing - where those that are not in that category are something to be 'experienced' - an aspect of the eccentric or different that entertains those that come to visit, stay, work - and eventually leave. I didn't want to be so negative - sorry :) I think it just kind of hit a note with me and made me reflect that a lot of what I think makes London so interesting is the mix of cultures, but diversity is lost when age and class factor in to what is visible. It was a really well made video and I look forward to checking out your other content. - R²
Wait for part two maybe? I guess the first video needs to catch the right attention, and as you see it is already at 200K, which compared to his average videos have quite well delivered. Perhaps and probably, since he wrote himself he lives in London, a part 2 will come?
Revolutionary Squared completely agree man, growing up in Enfield my whole life this videodidnt really hit me, I couldn’t relate to it because it wasn’t MY London experience, same as many hundreds of thousands of other Londoners .
I agree - this is an outsiders view of London, based on tourist hotspots. Yet, I guess it may capture why so many young people from around the world come here. Good points.
This was amazing. As a Londoner it highlights exactly why I think London is one of the greatest cities in the world. You left pretty much no stone unturned with regards to things to see and do. "When a man is bored of London, he is bored of life."
The most stunning cinematography I've ever seen. The fluidity and motion of your work! The rhythm and colour! The sounds! Everything working together to create something so vivid it is almost tangible. I am in love
Its all very zone 1 and cliched, showing some of regeneration areas would have been nice. Mind you, you can’t really make a video showing off the crap like Harlesden, South Tottenham, Clapton or south of the river in Walworth or Rye Lane..wouldn’t be much to see.
@@thewomble1509 really? that is partially what I see every single day when i go to work. He captured the spirit of london very well and this portrait is very accurate. I don't have wealthy parents nor an art degree :) and...what did you expect to be portraited? the shopping center of elephant and castle or the charming whitechapel?
This video is amazing and it shows the vibrant, diverse, never dying city, home to over 8 million people. The person who made this deserves so much for doing this. Thank you. Its about time we got a video like this.
This literally put tears in my eyes. Well done this is just one of the best videos which I saw.❤️ This make me think how much I still need to see of this city.
Man ! I love how you do your job is very clean everything you want to present, the cuts, the transitions, the scenes is completely the reality of each culture and city
First I had a negative outlook but at the end of the video it exhilarated me to go to London and experience the hectic lifestyle but also the opportunity it brings. One word... amazing!
This video is a work of art. I’ve shared it on my Facebook. I am a Londoner, born and bred and I am proud to come from this unique, wonderful city. Thank you for making this video, Oliver.
As a Londoner, this is the best video what I have ever seen. Thank you so much for this amazing miracle! You show for everybody, why we love London so much! Thank you so much again. Amazing.
I recently relocated to London and I have been exploring and getting to know more about the city. This was everything for me!!!! I didn't blink or get distracted by anything. This was phenomenal to watch. wow!!!!! ❤️❤️Thank you for making this.
After watching your every video (I watched everything, even several times), this is something magical and supernatural. Beautiful work, video editing, directorial approach. It can be seen that the hand of a professional, world talent
I can't have enough of watching this video! Could you make a video about your editing and filming techniques? Your video transitions are incredible! Cheers!
Sono d'accordo. In certi punti, da Regista e da ex Grafico 3D sembra che sia impossibile riprendere per esempio i passaggi tra un livello e l'altro della metropolitana, anche se capisco che probabilmente sono solo due livelli ripetuti con la transizione nel mezzo, dove la telecamera non può riprendere, e si monta una ripresa differente, ma attinente. Bellissime le ottimizzazioni colore, non ce mai sbalzi e sbilanciamenti del bianco ne cromatici. Superbo lavoro. PS: Non credo però che faccia tutto sempre da solo. Vedi la collaborazione di personaggi che si succeguono nel corto e che sono complici ed esteticamente vincenti.
Guus Verschuuren Casey Neistat is amazing but his style is very much fitting off the content he makes - vlogs. His filming techniques are raw and rough and that makes for beauty in his work. But this video is a great example of what can be achieved with a camera. Breathtaking images and great editing skills to piece this all together so cleanly
This absolutely incredible and impossible to hope to remake without at least a hundreds of hours in front of us,thank you and well done, I can feel the emotions several times viewing in loop
What a video. Iv been living in London and this defo captures its best side. Would've loved to see more of the inner south and east London areas like Brick Lane Sunday Market, Stratford Westfield, Green Street Upton Park Lane, Streatham, Islington, some of the football stadiums etc. Keep up the good work. Would love to see another one please. U deserve some sort of an award for this.
I've lived in London for almost 5 years. While in my first 2 years I still felt like I was living in a dream, eventually the routine caught up and the downsides came up a bit more. While there are still many issues, this city is one of the best ones in the whole world, I can tell by the way I miss it after I leave for some time... this video perfectly captured the love that made me want to leave everything and call London my home
your video is the most amazing video I've ever seen of London and your editing, images, everything! I am from Brazil but I love London with all my heart! You are incredible!!! Thanks for sharing this art of yours with us, Oliver!
very lovely, I worked in design and publishing, magazines, newspapers etc for 30 years or so...and I loved your film...still like the idea that I know most of the places etc!!!
I’ve never made a video this dope. Pretty intricate with all your movements...I feel like I traveled the world in this single video in London. You captured so many cultural flavors from the city.
Love love LOVE this video! When hearing the "please mind the gap" it instantly put a smile on my face, been away from London for too long and made me feel so nostalgic - so excited to go back! This video deserves all the likes it can get!
started off thinking this was a gross misrepresentation of the positives of London, and that it glazes over all the poverty struggle, ugliness etc. But then I thought sometimes you just need to appreciate the beauty and the good, even just for 6 minutes. So thanks for that in this video.
Ok we can appreciate it, but this video deserves a second part with more..truth, if you know what I'm saying It is so much easy to show only beautiful things, show also that grey parts of London
Brilliant cinematography. I don't think this was London in its entirety, this is Central London. If anything, Londoners - other than the wealthy or those who work in central - probably wouldn't choose to indulge in the Central London atmosphere. London city is vast, vibrant, diverse and eclectic. From Chelsea to Upton park, from Brixton to Islington. That's all London - it's unfortunate this wasn't captured but once again, it looks brilliant visually.
@@SM-ly5tf you guys are never leaving the EU this Brexit bullshit is a shitshow and will remain this way till they just cancel it. and btw usually good Romanians don't want to associate themselves with the bad ones and are not open about their nationality. those gypsified Romanians and the actual gipsies are fucking the image for the rest of us that just want to have a normal life in the Uk and integrate. P.S to remain into the UK if Brexit happens you just have to pay 50£ for a temporary residency and another 50 quid after 5 years for a permanent one.
So you want him to show the deprived parts of London, even though this a promotional stock video that he is trying to sell commercially. Why don’t you take yourself of social media and focus religiously on your goals so that you may view a city in the perspective of the minority. As a opposed to wasting useful energy on something that doesn’t concern you in the slightest.
Trust it’s just showing central London the nicer and richer side of London lol 😂 I’m from East London bruh I think I’m living in the slum area same goes for South east London 😂
Speaking as a Londoner for the last 11 years, this video is just beautiful; so many familiar sights, and so many captured moments across such a wide and varied cross-section of life (the only way you could possibly begin to capture the essence of London!). Gave me goosebumps and reignited my excitement for my city 😍
I'm not sure what you mean by that, considering that everyone who lives in Central London is obviously still a Londoner, and alot of people live there, so this video does represent actual London.
@@ifb6368 Central Londoners are a _tiny_ minority of Londoners, and even many of us who work there (like me 🙋🏾) don't live there bc it's far too expensive. This video is breathtaking, but this is really London for people with 6 figure salaries, or worse, tourists.
lived here all my life. Millions of people try to capture the excitement yet raw nature of living with in a place like London. It hadn’t been done, until now.
I don't have enough words to tell you how beautiful this video is. I lived in London for 2 months for a internship last year, and just through this video, all the amazing moments I've had, the places I'v visited we're resurfacing. I'm just so emotional ! Just well done !
Semplicemente stupendo! Questo video mi ha fatto ritornare in mente tutti i momenti passato in questa meravigliosa città e mi manca. Davvero ottimo lavoro!
187 people who are jealous, don't have the means, time and patience to appreaciate such a great mounted video, rich of emotions and experiences. Sei un grande Oliver!
The video is shot beautifully, the sceneries you were able to capture were breathtaking and the time you must have spent on this must have been the greatest, there’s no doubt in that and I truly appreciate this! As a northwest Londoner, I would have appreciated to see an image of younger generations. As a university student now, there were moments and memories as a high schooler that no one will take away from me! I wish I could’ve given you those moments so you could have recreate them because I am sure a lot of us can certainly recall and relate to these. Schools in London may seem messy to others but the variety of students they hold is a huge part of my London high school experience. Otherwise, amazing work, I honestly could have never lmao!
If only. Living in real London is all about dingy neighbourhoods, crappy infrastructure and sociality contrained by the city's size. Hardly anyone workes in the City and then kayaks in spare time. The video is great, and shows some of the excitement of the city's landmarks condensed, but it is that very image that is masking reality of London, which often feels like a medieval dump turned automated stable, and where sheer everyday means a lot of work.
@@MrLovetrash i'm 47 i live in the city and it is GREAT - you're whinging old fool. 97 yrs olds don't belong in a city anyway, retire to the country where the pace of life is more slower for you.
It's hard for me to describe the feeling I have, living in this amazing city. No pictures, no videos could ever tell the story accurately, but you definitely did it. The best 6 minutes I've ever spent on RUclips. Thanks for the amazing cinematography and story telling.
Oh my God, I am so blown away of how amazing this is wow wow wow... I literally have no words... You managed to capture London's true and raw beauty in every way possible. Amazing!!!
Wow...what a city and the video is doing equal justice to it...Hats of to you man for such a mesmerising video. All I can say is LONDON is the capital of Europe. It only comes next to NEW YORK CITY.
That was an incredible experience. Stunning production values, but for us Londoners it's an emotional ride. I've been to pretty much every place, every park, every pub in the video and had an overwhelming rush of memories, of all the people I've met over the years here in this epic city. You done well, bruv.
This should legitimately be used by the UK Tourist board.
It's too good for that.
Absolutely James 👍🇬🇧🏴
Is this London or Africa?
London tourism only. Not UK.
Few times in RUclips history has there ever been anything more deserving of a like
Is this London or Africa?
As a Londoner I can safely say this is one of the most amazing representations I have ever seen of the city I call home. It shows the amazing breadth of different people, cultures and stories that this place holds, it's almost overwhelming to watch but that's exactly how London feels at times.

Appreciating your thoughts, many thanks for watching and commenting it!
Hah I thought very much the same, but for all its beauties also captures why I left: it's soooo hectic
Couldn’t of said it better. Proud to be a Londoner and this just encapsulates everything about it. 👌🏾

That only proves how the amazingness of this city is indefinite. Also Hampstead is missing, the ponds etc, Camden town and so on
This was crazy good my friend, summed up my excitement with living here in 6 minutes
HEY ZAC AND JAY
ZAC AND JAY! I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!
Omg I just watched your video a second ago!
Love the mood, especially the last few minutes. Glad you finally got this one done! So many different locations and scenes woven together
Thanks man! It was great to have captured some scenes together ;)
Brandon !!!!!
@@OliverAstrologo Will you ever do one video in Andalusia (south of Spain, the land of flamenco). I think it could be beautiful 😊
Lisandro Rodriguez ¿y por donde andas usted?
I know right!
This is a beautiful, breathtaking piece of work. It really encapsulates, as you set out to, the soul of the city, and any Londoner will watch with a swelling of pride. Well done.
Everything was good until the last moment, us Londoners are not that friendly on the Tube. 😂
I think there's a law.....if you talk to a stranger on the tube , you get arrested for being weird!!!
@@jonlong42 ):
jonlong42 They didn’t speak, so all is well.
Maybe not on on the Tube, but definitely on the RUclips.... hehehe!
Northern/Jubilee line are too symbolised. Perhaps more focus on central and Victoria lines - they have heavy usage as well
This video deserves sooo much more attention... hope somehow the RUclips algorithm shows this video to more people... fascinating editing, showing the beauty of London... and the reason why I chose to stay in this city..based on a decision I made when I came here on a school trip..and now 5 years later.. living in this stressful yet so beautiful city
Blink and you miss an hour of production time! Amazing man, so smooth 🙌🏻
the rides and happy new year part touched me because ive expirenced both

When your're tired of London, your're tired of life. A very nice work of art btw. Well done.
When you're tired of London you get out and realise how much of life you've been missing living in such a shithole.
Hashterix London is one of the greatest cities in the world.

Hashterix it is bloody expensive I’ll admit! I live in ‘greater’ London so I get the best of both worlds I guess!
@@harrietjones1409 even greater London is 5x more expensive than most of the UK

Disclaimer. The commute to work as a londoner is not this epic.
😂😂 Love it!
I wish you could see how is commuting to work looks like in other countries 😅
😂😂😂😂
It is sometimes
Have you taken the Northern line at 8am or even 7? Didn't think so.
5 years later, still a classic. refreshing.

Ok we can appreciate it, but this video deserves a second part with more..truth, if you know what I'm saying
It is so much easy to show only beautiful things, show also that grey parts of London
This really made me appreciate how lucky I am to live in this city :)
the energy coming from these 6 minutes is incredible ! what a great film :)
Clicked for London,
Stayed cause this video is amazing!
The greatest city on Earth. There is NO other city on our planet which can capture ALL the elements this video displays.
Brilliant cinematography.
I don't think this was London in its entirety, this is Central London. If anything, Londoners - other than the wealthy or those who work in central - probably wouldn't choose to indulge in the Central London atmosphere. London city is vast, vibrant, diverse and eclectic. From Chelsea to Upton park, from Brixton to Islington. That's all London - it's unfortunate this wasn't captured but once again, it looks brilliant visually.
Chelsea to eastham. Eastham is part of london borough of newham

@@SM-ly5tf you guys are never leaving the EU this Brexit bullshit is a shitshow and will remain this way till they just cancel it. and btw usually good Romanians don't want to associate themselves with the bad ones and are not open about their nationality. those gypsified Romanians and the actual gipsies are fucking the image for the rest of us that just want to have a normal life in the Uk and integrate.
P.S to remain into the UK if Brexit happens you just have to pay 50£ for a temporary residency and another 50 quid after 5 years for a permanent one.
So you want him to show the deprived parts of London, even though this a promotional stock video that he is trying to sell commercially.
Why don’t you take yourself of social media and focus religiously on your goals so that you may view a city in the perspective of the minority. As a opposed to wasting useful energy on something that doesn’t concern you in the slightest.
Trust it’s just showing central London the nicer and richer side of London lol 😂 I’m from East London bruh I think I’m living in the slum area same goes for South east London 😂
Speaking as a Londoner for the last 11 years, this video is just beautiful; so many familiar sights, and so many captured moments across such a wide and varied cross-section of life (the only way you could possibly begin to capture the essence of London!). Gave me goosebumps and reignited my excitement for my city 😍
Hi
I had goosebumps watching your video because IT IS SO GOOD!
Just...wow. I hope this goes viral, the creator really deserves it.
The sound effects are also dope~~👌
London, the place I wanna visit most. Thank you for making an incredibly beautiful video! Love from Japan 🇯🇵
This is nothing like living in actual London, the surrounding boroughs where Londoners actual live and can afford.
I'm not sure what you mean by that, considering that everyone who lives in Central London is obviously still a Londoner, and alot of people live there, so this video does represent actual London.
@@ifb6368 Central Londoners are a _tiny_ minority of Londoners, and even many of us who work there (like me 🙋🏾) don't live there bc it's far too expensive.
This video is breathtaking, but this is really London for people with 6 figure salaries, or worse, tourists.
E.g. Newham, Hackney, Lewisham, Croydon, Peckham

lived here all my life. Millions of people try to capture the excitement yet raw nature of living with in a place like London. It hadn’t been done, until now.
This is a fantastic video, excellent work and perspective! Love creative talent coming straight from our city 🙌
I don't have enough words to tell you how beautiful this video is. I lived in London for 2 months for a internship last year, and just through this video, all the amazing moments I've had, the places I'v visited we're resurfacing. I'm just so emotional ! Just well done !
Damn this was so good! The shots where beautiful, the transitions where amazing and it really captured the mood and vibe of London
Semplicemente stupendo! Questo video mi ha fatto ritornare in mente tutti i momenti passato in questa meravigliosa città e mi manca. Davvero ottimo lavoro!
Was waiting for the rave culture/festivals and thought it wasn’t coming. I see you sis
Love this city. Love everything and everyone in it. You get food from all around the world, cultures, people and many more. Greatest city on earth.
You have not even been there Dear.
187 people who are jealous, don't have the means, time and patience to appreaciate such a great mounted video, rich of emotions and experiences.
Sei un grande Oliver!
As a Londoner myself who's been to almost all the locations shot at I can say you've captured the city perfectly, exactly what London is all about
This is some of the best visual story telling I have ever seen. Amazing work!
The video is shot beautifully, the sceneries you were able to capture were breathtaking and the time you must have spent on this must have been the greatest, there’s no doubt in that and I truly appreciate this! As a northwest Londoner, I would have appreciated to see an image of younger generations. As a university student now, there were moments and memories as a high schooler that no one will take away from me! I wish I could’ve given you those moments so you could have recreate them because I am sure a lot of us can certainly recall and relate to these. Schools in London may seem messy to others but the variety of students they hold is a huge part of my London high school experience. Otherwise, amazing work, I honestly could have never lmao!
Hi
Wow i m speechless!! This is soooo amazing .. Love your Skills !!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
This literally made me cry, not a Londoner but live close. This brought back so many good memories. Such a masterpiece ❣️
If only. Living in real London is all about dingy neighbourhoods, crappy infrastructure and sociality contrained by the city's size. Hardly anyone workes in the City and then kayaks in spare time. The video is great, and shows some of the excitement of the city's landmarks condensed, but it is that very image that is masking reality of London, which often feels like a medieval dump turned automated stable, and where sheer everyday means a lot of work.
Just shut up and appreciate the video. Every city feels like that when you live in it.
John Buffalo I am 97 - So you are stupid and you live outside the actual city.
John Buffalo I am 97 - You can shut up as well! Why can’t you just appreciate the city for what it is?
London's a fucking dump. Go somewhere else in England but just make sure you don't go to the dive that is London.
@@MrLovetrash i'm 47 i live in the city and it is GREAT - you're whinging old fool. 97 yrs olds don't belong in a city anyway, retire to the country where the pace of life is more slower for you.
It's hard for me to describe the feeling I have, living in this amazing city. No pictures, no videos could ever tell the story accurately, but you definitely did it. The best 6 minutes I've ever spent on RUclips. Thanks for the amazing cinematography and story telling.
When you get bored of London... You're bored of life kids 😏
100% true
@@anthony.m5432 very right,
Yep indeed🇬🇧❤️
Oh my God, I am so blown away of how amazing this is wow wow wow... I literally have no words... You managed to capture London's true and raw beauty in every way possible. Amazing!!!
Wow...what a city and the video is doing equal justice to it...Hats of to you man for such a mesmerising video. All I can say is LONDON is the capital of Europe. It only comes next to NEW YORK CITY.
Yep, London is in Europe... nice try!
New York is a dump. Trash on the ground, outdated subways, incredibly rude people.
Dubai > Shanghai > Tokyo > London > Lagos > New York
Alright maybe I might be over-exaggerating...
Shanghai shouldn't be where it is. London > Shanghai
@@albertocrescini2076 😂😁 I just wanted to say that London is the most advanced city in entire Europe.
That was an incredible experience. Stunning production values, but for us Londoners it's an emotional ride. I've been to pretty much every place, every park, every pub in the video and had an overwhelming rush of memories, of all the people I've met over the years here in this epic city. You done well, bruv.
