"A" protest? It's THE protest, probably the largest in the world since Tiananmen Square and it has gone on for years almost uninterrupted. They number hundreds of thousands, some days probably over a million across France. While the problems they protest for have been different, the cause they're protesting against has not; the corrupt government.
@@thisismyname1940 I remember visiting Paris in November and the day we came it was protests as well and the entire day it was police everywhere. The french truly like protesting.

Applies to western europe. In Poland our train stations used to be pretty grim 10-20 years ago, but the people you met there were usually homeless or common docile drunks. The thing was there were ZERO people of the no good kind that didnt speak our language. Makes a big difference. Nowadays our train stations are clean, modernised and more and more of them are being renovated. You can actually relax while waiting for your train and feel safe when sitting there by yourself when its already dark outside.

This is truly one of the most interesting and surreal videos I‘ve seen recently. It just captures a (perhaps) historical event from such an unusual perspective. This should be saved somewhere in an archive!

At the moment i'm writing an academic paper on this video, it's genuinely amazing how interesting this concept is. To film a fairly serious croissant review (or as serious as something like a croissant review can get) in the midst of historic protests is one of the most intriguing and hilarious things I've ever seen on RUclips. If you think of this video a something similar to a documentary, it's actually incredibly innovative from a filmmaking point of view.
It shows something from that perspective shallow amidst as you said historic protests, it also highlights certain type of influencers, content that we are surrounded with. Rankings, hauls, trends, we forget about what big events we're currently living through. It's like we don't want to know or see, it's more comfortable to live in this imaginary world without it. Cool insight, nice to see some similar thoughts. Good luck with your paper!
As a Frenchman it was fun It's even funnier that your video is showing to the world how much we keep living as if everything was fine, since protestors are everywhere
@@gandalf_thegrey I'm not kidding, just look at how our president just reacted like "yeah, they'll calm down in some months, no worries" and we were like "oh, another protest" when we were going to lunch during the midday pause lmao But I have to admit it was kind of surprising how much people there were But in my city, people aren't violent during protests, so it was safe to walk in the streets Someday, my friends wanted to eat burgers but the bus got blocked by the protest so I've just left them to eat somewhere closer from our school, but they litteraly went through the protest to walk to another bus stop, and there was a man playing the champ des partisans on idk which instrument, so one of my friends joined him with his kazoo, it's sad that I left them lol So yeah, it's really like... Usual but not usual but still fine when people aren't angry and cops aren't either
@Yesnarxo well we have protests for other topics now The protests against the pension reform stopped when the National Assembly failed to vote the motion of no confidence (I'm using Google translate for the political words, tell me if it's not understandable) Something like 1 month ago, there has been another mess, but not because of this reform. A 17yo got killed by a cop because he refused to comply. The thing is, that kid was known, as it wasn't his first crime, which is the principal argument of the people defending him (most of the other arguments gravitate towards it, it's like "ok but this kid was already corrupted, his life was a pure failure, he deserves it because he just had to stay right there instead of running away with his car, it's because of people like him that cops aren't respected, we have to give them more power if we want to reestablish an harmony where people are aware that cops aren't shit"). But there's one more thing, he was an Arab. And, if racism wasn't high a few years ago, it's absolutely changing, because of communitarianism (there are a lot of factors for that: there are places field with immigrants because life is cheap there, and the fact they are struggling to feel like they're a part of French people, they just comfort themselves by staying with groups of other immigrants, rap is also a factor because they now feel like every groups of immigrants are link, they feel a kind of fraternity, but rap is also used to convey hateful messages now, and the groups of kids often start to isolate even more from France, and some of them become violent and antifrance, and their thing really work, since you can sometimes find teenagers with Algerian flags in their bio while they're actually white and just want to be badass renegades). And the Nahel's death caused : 1- a lot of protests, composed by normal protestors, and by renegades who just want France to be a total mess 2 - more police violences, since the protests are full of hateful people who provoke the cops so that they become violent, BUT ALSO because some cops are just dumbasses, or because they're racist or because, with the rise of the far right, people are just being more and more polarized and radicals, which makes France look like twitter sometimes, people really tend to do dumb things foe politics now 3 - far right people have raised something like 1 million euros for the cop, pretending that it was an indicator of decadence that the family of the victim got idk how much thousand euros from their own pool So yeah, big mess because cops are violent and groups of renegades destroy stuff during protests I don't remember about a low giving too much rights to cops, I must have heard about it and then forgot because it was an usual topic lol But 2 or 3 years ago, we already had some protests because they made a law to "protect the cops", which makes it forbidden to record cops, but no one cares lmao The big thing is that the IGPN is corrupted, while they're supposed to juge the cases of cops committing crimes, so a lot of cops aren't punished Also, the amount of cops have drastically increased, but for the number to increase, they had to lower the required level to be employed Oh, and during a protest, a man, who wasn't protesting, litteraly just walking around, got assaulted by cops, and, plot twist, the man is arabic, so that's started an other mess because it shows how many cops are corrupted
Hey Destin! Had this video randomly back in my recommended, decided to watch that amazing first 20 seconds again. A masterpiece! I see you recognize it too!
I really love the intro where he asked someone how to pronounce the first store's name. Even in the chaos, someone actually stopped and helped him. I don't know why that part hits me the most, but it does. Somethimg about that just feels so absurd.
The juxtaposition of all the madness going on with a man simply talking about beautiful old stores as well as politely and eloquently reviewing croissants makes this one of my favourite videos I've seen on RUclips. Love your work keep it up :)

This is one of my favorite videos on this site. The comedy is so good, no over-the-top editing and zooming in like I've gotten so used to, and it's kind of poetic at the same time.
Ah Paris, so romantic My cousin has been in Paris since the beginning of the year; some days ago, he sent me a video of him and his French friends eating in front of a burning garbage container as if nothing happened. Thanks to this video I realize that actually that is the authentic Parisian experience, how dynamic!
I have visited Paris twice this year (3 days in January and five days this month (April). I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. Demonstrations may be noisy but peaceful. Vandalism will occur but it's isolated and perhaps even unrelated to the protest demos.
Paris is a shit hole, every movie ever depicits it as some amazing romantic city, what they don't show you is the slums that occupie over 40% of the city and the sewage system that doesn't work. Nor does it show you the THOUSANDS of homeless. But nah big metal tower get married by it so romantic such wow, what a shit hole, what a shit hole of a country.
Please be mindful about asking only one parisien at a time. If you ask about the best croissant to a group of parisiens, you may start a riot inside a riot.
I'm french, my wife come from Italy, and we live near Paris. We watched your video. We laughed so much ! You are a pure genius of humour. When you filmed your knees, talking about pigeons and we are expecting to see them, then you filmed police passing through. I already said it. GENIIUS !
Fully agree. This is visual poetry and humour. The guy is talking about the best croissants in the world with a full blown backdrop of terror surrounding him. Not once did he comment on or interact with the demonstration as if he is fully focused on reporting about his buttery delicious croissants. Hilerious!
For true french experience must be in the revolution, luis i know you want to join the protest, but i also understand the importance of finding the greatest croissant.
As an Italian fan of Luis since his very first vlog, I'm so proud of him!! So many comments from all around the world, wow. He deserves it. Such a precious human being.
La dernière image me tue avec le panneau au premier plan "Taxer les riches" xD Excellente vidéo ! Je crois que j'ai jamais vu une vidéo faite sur la France qui respire autant la vraie France : les excellentes viennoiseries et la révolution, tout est parfait !
Putain mais ouais, le petit côté 1789 avec notre bon Roi-Dictateur Macron qui interdit au gens de vivre et les manifestants. Bien trouvé sa vidéo l'analogie de Luis.
This video is literally history level comedy. I've been laughing my ass of while the chaos unwields in the background. It's so funny that us, the current generation, feel absolutely ok with this and at many points i was even completely invested in his review of the croissants and even saved the place with the imperfect shapes and old style shop and accepted the chaos in the back as just normal noise while we are at it, but at some points when he finishes a review and leaves the camera we see literal fires in the back it brings me back to reality. This repeating pattern being such a normal occurrence in our daily lives was such a beautiful comedic presentation. I swear you nailed this video. In one shot were you leave the camera and waldo appears behind you i lost it. It's not only you making such a funny review but even the protestors trolling during the fn protest. That guy knew that at some points in the news he can literally play where is waldo with himself in the outfit. Fn Genius. This video is a 10/10 going to top tier playlists. So well done.
~3:40 he just shows up in front of a giant dumpster fire I didn’t question but then I rewind and he’s just standing there in a massive protest how long was that happening
I can't believe that I was so focused on him eating and discussing the croissant that I didn't even notice the Waldo outfit until you pointed it out! I scrubbed back thinking it must have been in the background, but he's RIGHT THERE. 😅
everyone called it protest, but parisian called it tuesday. plus, the riot cops need some exercise and work to make the taxpayers money goes to something beside donuts.

I would say that a general rule is that train stations attract people who are either after your wallet, your unfinished lunch, or a cigarette. I would not consider train nerds a problem.

This is truly one of the most interesting and surreal videos I‘ve seen recently. It just captures a (perhaps) historical event from such an unusual perspective. This should be saved somewhere in an archive!

It's funny to me, as a long time fan of Luis's, because to me this video seems totally on par with his style and doesn't strike me as surreal that much. I guess I've just become so used to it that I don't notice how funny he is anymore!

Artista 😂😂😂
Che bassa idea che hai dell'arte.
Artista? Hai un concetto un po' distorto dell'arte.
At the moment i'm writing an academic paper on this video, it's genuinely amazing how interesting this concept is. To film a fairly serious croissant review (or as serious as something like a croissant review can get) in the midst of historic protests is one of the most intriguing and hilarious things I've ever seen on RUclips. If you think of this video a something similar to a documentary, it's actually incredibly innovative from a filmmaking point of view.
What is your major?
It shows something from that perspective shallow amidst as you said historic protests, it also highlights certain type of influencers, content that we are surrounded with. Rankings, hauls, trends, we forget about what big events we're currently living through. It's like we don't want to know or see, it's more comfortable to live in this imaginary world without it. Cool insight, nice to see some similar thoughts. Good luck with your paper!
Midwit.
great ^^ tell me if you publish it or if it becomes readable somehow
Historic protests? French people riot and destroy their cities every other year
"sorry for my french, im not french" had me in stitches
That dude who helps you pronounce the name of the place in the middle of the protest is a legend.
“Usually in Europe where there’s a station and a McDonald’s, there’s usually not good people.” This is so spot on 😂

It is so true. He was near Gare du Nord. Let’s say you have to be at that place when you take the Eurostar but better to leave this area asap.

It's even funnier that your video is showing to the world how much we keep living as if everything was fine, since protestors are everywhere
I mean... isnt everything fine?
From all ive heard, read and seen .... France is on strike 24/7
;)
@@gandalf_thegrey I'm not kidding, just look at how our president just reacted like "yeah, they'll calm down in some months, no worries" and we were like "oh, another protest" when we were going to lunch during the midday pause lmao
But I have to admit it was kind of surprising how much people there were
But in my city, people aren't violent during protests, so it was safe to walk in the streets
Someday, my friends wanted to eat burgers but the bus got blocked by the protest so I've just left them to eat somewhere closer from our school, but they litteraly went through the protest to walk to another bus stop, and there was a man playing the champ des partisans on idk which instrument, so one of my friends joined him with his kazoo, it's sad that I left them lol
So yeah, it's really like... Usual but not usual but still fine when people aren't angry and cops aren't either
@Yesnarxo well we have protests for other topics now
The protests against the pension reform stopped when the National Assembly failed to vote the motion of no confidence (I'm using Google translate for the political words, tell me if it's not understandable)
Something like 1 month ago, there has been another mess, but not because of this reform. A 17yo got killed by a cop because he refused to comply. The thing is, that kid was known, as it wasn't his first crime, which is the principal argument of the people defending him (most of the other arguments gravitate towards it, it's like "ok but this kid was already corrupted, his life was a pure failure, he deserves it because he just had to stay right there instead of running away with his car, it's because of people like him that cops aren't respected, we have to give them more power if we want to reestablish an harmony where people are aware that cops aren't shit"). But there's one more thing, he was an Arab. And, if racism wasn't high a few years ago, it's absolutely changing, because of communitarianism (there are a lot of factors for that: there are places field with immigrants because life is cheap there, and the fact they are struggling to feel like they're a part of French people, they just comfort themselves by staying with groups of other immigrants, rap is also a factor because they now feel like every groups of immigrants are link, they feel a kind of fraternity, but rap is also used to convey hateful messages now, and the groups of kids often start to isolate even more from France, and some of them become violent and antifrance, and their thing really work, since you can sometimes find teenagers with Algerian flags in their bio while they're actually white and just want to be badass renegades). And the Nahel's death caused :
1- a lot of protests, composed by normal protestors, and by renegades who just want France to be a total mess
2 - more police violences, since the protests are full of hateful people who provoke the cops so that they become violent, BUT ALSO because some cops are just dumbasses, or because they're racist or because, with the rise of the far right, people are just being more and more polarized and radicals, which makes France look like twitter sometimes, people really tend to do dumb things foe politics now
3 - far right people have raised something like 1 million euros for the cop, pretending that it was an indicator of decadence that the family of the victim got idk how much thousand euros from their own pool
So yeah, big mess because cops are violent and groups of renegades destroy stuff during protests
I don't remember about a low giving too much rights to cops, I must have heard about it and then forgot because it was an usual topic lol
But 2 or 3 years ago, we already had some protests because they made a law to "protect the cops", which makes it forbidden to record cops, but no one cares lmao
The big thing is that the IGPN is corrupted, while they're supposed to juge the cases of cops committing crimes, so a lot of cops aren't punished
Also, the amount of cops have drastically increased, but for the number to increase, they had to lower the required level to be employed
Oh, and during a protest, a man, who wasn't protesting, litteraly just walking around, got assaulted by cops, and, plot twist, the man is arabic, so that's started an other mess because it shows how many cops are corrupted
I'm sorry that you are Fr*nch

Ah Paris, so romantic
My cousin has been in Paris since the beginning of the year; some days ago, he sent me a video of him and his French friends eating in front of a burning garbage container as if nothing happened. Thanks to this video I realize that actually that is the authentic Parisian experience, how dynamic!
some might say the city has an explosive romance to it
😂😂😂😂
I have visited Paris twice this year (3 days in January and five days this month (April). I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. Demonstrations may be noisy but peaceful. Vandalism will occur but it's isolated and perhaps even unrelated to the protest demos.
Mmm so beautiful real french culture in a nutshell
Paris is a shit hole, every movie ever depicits it as some amazing romantic city, what they don't show you is the slums that occupie over 40% of the city and the sewage system that doesn't work. Nor does it show you the THOUSANDS of homeless.
But nah big metal tower get married by it so romantic such wow, what a shit hole, what a shit hole of a country.

At least we will always know, when we travel to France. We can ask for a good croissant place during a riot. How heartwarming
Please be mindful about asking only one parisien at a time. If you ask about the best croissant to a group of parisiens, you may start a riot inside a riot.
I'm french, my wife come from Italy, and we live near Paris. We watched your video. We laughed so much ! You are a pure genius of humour. When you filmed your knees, talking about pigeons and we are expecting to see them, then you filmed police passing through. I already said it. GENIIUS !
Fully agree. This is visual poetry and humour. The guy is talking about the best croissants in the world with a full blown backdrop of terror surrounding him. Not once did he comment on or interact with the demonstration as if he is fully focused on reporting about his buttery delicious croissants. Hilerious!

This video is literally history level comedy. I've been laughing my ass of while the chaos unwields in the background. It's so funny that us, the current generation, feel absolutely ok with this and at many points i was even completely invested in his review of the croissants and even saved the place with the imperfect shapes and old style shop and accepted the chaos in the back as just normal noise while we are at it, but at some points when he finishes a review and leaves the camera we see literal fires in the back it brings me back to reality. This repeating pattern being such a normal occurrence in our daily lives was such a beautiful comedic presentation. I swear you nailed this video. In one shot were you leave the camera and waldo appears behind you i lost it. It's not only you making such a funny review but even the protestors trolling during the fn protest. That guy knew that at some points in the news he can literally play where is waldo with himself in the outfit. Fn Genius. This video is a 10/10 going to top tier playlists. So well done.
~3:40 he just shows up in front of a giant dumpster fire I didn’t question but then I rewind and he’s just standing there in a massive protest how long was that happening
I can't believe that I was so focused on him eating and discussing the croissant that I didn't even notice the Waldo outfit until you pointed it out! I scrubbed back thinking it must have been in the background, but he's RIGHT THERE. 😅
