Interesting fact for you if you didn’t already know, Big Ben’s chimes actually has lyrics: “All through this hour, Lord be my guide, and through thy power, No foot shall slide”
In 1910, Big Ben chimed 68 times to honour each year of Edward VII In 1936, Big Ben chimed 70 times to honour each year of George V In 1952, Big Ben chimed 52 times to honour each year of George VI In 2022, Big Ben will chime literally 96+ times to honour Elizabeth II. Eh, it doesn’t matter Big Ben did not chime for the last 4 years so that would compensate RIP the Queen, I guess we’ll hear 96 chimes
I love those chimes. I used to listen to them while listening to the radio at night, here in Brazil. I've always dreamt of visiting London since I was just a teenager struggling to learn this language I love so much. God save the Queen.
It's a 173 year old clock the size of a building with old parts that need replaced, it's not just "Let's put some new batteries in it hurr durr" imbicile
I miss that clock, I come to this video to remember it while its repairing, when im heading to work, i used to pass by it, the chime has been apart of my world since i was little! I'll miss its chime :(
I’m not particularly nationalist, but the reason I like Big Ben and hearing it every time BBC does news bulletins is that it makes me feel connected to my ancestors. Like, that’s the exact same sound that my great grandparents would have heard. It’s something constant, and there’s a weird amount of comfort in that
*2021* People in london: ah yes, peace and quie- Big Ben: *BING BING BING BONG BING BONG BING BONG* People in london *ah shit here go again* American people: *_S A N S I S B A C K_* Edit: hate whenever you want just don't send death threats to me or other people

Can we just appreciate that this is the last generation that we can hear the Big Ben Rang before it get silent, and were lucky that we hear it bc if the time past by it will be historical
@Jake but Not from statefarm The last Big Ben chime became a Meme and people started to change the chimes into something different like Megalovania or Never Gonna Give You Up.
I remember first watching this thinking 2021 is really far away.. it’s now currently the beginning of 2021 and now we wait for the first chime in 4 years from big ben!

RIP the Queen, I guess we’ll hear 96 chimes
actually she will never die
Bold of you to assume it’s going to happen in the 2020s. More like the 5380s.
maybe the chimes are keeping them alive!
Doubtful. ImmortaliTEA is some strong shit.
When Big Ben is fixed they will chime over infinity times since the queen will die at the end of time therefore Big Ben is the last landmark left
When Big Ben starts again it'll annoy the piss out of everyone who got used to it being quiet.

I love that you appreciate how iconic this sound is. I'm really quite proud of the clock tower and its belfry.
