    I'm Romanian, so not a native English speaker, and have never been to the UK. When I was in kindergarten and we'd sing "London Bridge Is Falling Down", I'd get really sad. I didn't want the bridge to fall, and no matter if we'd build it up with iron bars or needles and pins, nothing we'd do would work because it'd keep falling. It made very sad and worried for londoners. Didn't know back then that they had so many bridges. Made me worried for nothing. Damn londoners!

    I worked round the corner from London Bridge in 1972 and 1973 and passed it every day - I watched as they removed and loaded each stone, carefully marked with numbers and letters, onto massive lorries to take away, probably to Tilbury, to be shipped abroad. I knew it had been sold as there was talk of it in Lloyd's (insurance) who would have covered this precious cargo, I presume.
    The fact that London Bridge was closed to traffic (obviously) caused considerable disruption and most traffic went over Tower Bridge but was extremely congested.

    7:26-8:02 the distance from London to Paris is 344 km, and Jay crossed it with his arm in 26 seconds. That means his arm travels at 344*3600/26 km/h ≈ 47,631 km/h, or 13,231 m/s. That’s 39 times as fast as the speed of sound. Jay’s arm is therefore the fastest manmade object on earth right now.

    It would have been interesting if you had mentioned the affects the old bridge had on the tides. The starlings on the bottom restricted the river so much that there could be a two meter water level difference on one side of the bridge from the other, which made it extremely treacherous to pass under and also caused the river to freeze during harsh winters.

      I did originally write that into the script. The reason we ditched it is because it didn't really add the story of the bridge so without any jokes or really good imagery to make it stand out, it felt like it just slowed the video down.

    All you could really see, was the ends of the pilings, and by them the outline of where the north bank of the bridge was.
    They built an office block over it.

    I discovered your channel less than an hour ago, and I just love the mix of interesting information and brilliant humour. I'd join your Patreon, but I don't have two pennies to rub together, on account of spending one of them, so thanks for the free content.

    He’s got a very very long arm
    A very long arm indeed
    He doesn’t use it to fight crime
    or give help those in need
    He says “it’s my arm, and I’ll do what I want”
    That’s always his excuse
    It’s a very big shame his very long arm
    has not been put to better use

    It’s amazing to see how much horses have evolved over the past few centuries, I can’t believe they went from bipeds to quadrupeds so fast.

    Several years ago, myself and a group of colleagues walked along the Thames Path From Hampton Court to Erith. At the start we walked along the path and soon came to Kingston. As we were raising money for a charity associated with our company (a widely known Peri-Peri Chicken restaurant that rhymes with Mandos) i thought it might be a good idea to pay a visit to any restaurant on (or near) the route. Kingston restaurant was only a few minutes walk away so we decided to go and say hi. On the way we crossed the Hogsmill River over the Clattern Bridge. I did little research and discovered that the Clattern Bridge is purportedly the oldest bridge in London (built around 1175) and one of the oldest river crossings in the world.
    It is a fine bridge, still going strong after many, many, many, many, many years.

    Heck yeah, a new Jay Foreman video! Perfect way to round off an otherwise very taxing day.
    I love the idea of living bridges, I think they're so cool, but they would be an absolute nightmare... At least the old ones. Old Town areas are already often difficult for emergency services to navigate, imagine having all those squished together buildings and too narrow streets PLUS the space limitations of being on a bridge... I would not want to be the one managing/coordinating emergency services for that neighbourhood, that's for sure. And, oof, to be the city planner et al responsible for installing the first plumbing system, and electricity...
    That could all be addressed if we planned one from scratch now, but ngl modern architecture just isn't as pretty as the really old school stuff. It wouldn't have the same feel at all. I'd totally still want one, though :P

      If you ever visit Florence, in Italyland, you can see one for free. As far as I know there aren’t any houses on the bridge any more, there are only shops, almost all jewellers for some strange reason. Be careful though; in true medieval style, there are often pickpockets about. Not much bear baiting though, thank goodness.
