The fact that they have been friends for this long is just wonderful.
Right. After high school me and my friends fell off lol
True. If I think that most people I hung out with and considered very close just 10 years ago are nothing but complete strangers to me nowadays already it's amazing. But real friends in life are few. Very few, at the end of the day. Most are just like movie extras. They come n' go.
Everybody 15 years ago now are strangers. I only know 1 person that I talk to as a real friend. Everybody else is fake af or all about drama it's as if high school days never ended. 🥶
@@ndesdsadfd movie extras yes 😅

This video was posted on my mom's 70th birthday. Thanks mom for taking us to McDonald's again and happy birthday! -Eric
Happy 70th Birthday mom 🎉 You are the coolest mom! Still hip!
Happy Birthday to Eric's mom today is my mom's Birthday also Eric she passed away in 2012.
Happy Birthday to your Mom! She seems like a pretty awesome Mom! 🎂
Oh awesome! Happy 70th Birthday to your mom! I hope she has a good day :)
Happy birthday Eric’s mom 🎉🎉
I love how the mom says, “alright boys.” Awe, as if it was 30 years ago
To Eric's mom, they will always be boys!
Exactly
The McDonalds from the 1989 video seemed so warm and inviting. It's a place where you would actually dine, instead of a glorified convenience store.
The workers also seemed happy too. Hard to believe it's the same exact McDonalds.
honestly i'm prob in the minority here but i like McDonald's current look
i feel like the McDonald's when i was a kid growing up (born in 1988) always looked and felt really grimy and cheap. i remember it was the late 2000s when they really started to change the interior of the place and that's when i felt it was more "homey"
Born in '85 Mcdonalds in the 80s was more friendly, when my parents would tall us we were going to mcdonalds, it would be a treat, today it's not a friendly environment, it looks nice, but lacks the importance of good service and good food
You guys missed the 70s that's when it was the best, up until early 80s , the price was stupid cheap, I think it was a quarter for a burger and 35 for cheeseburger. it stayed like that for a while, then mid 80s is when it went up a large jump, and the 2000 it went up double
@shable1436 Of course my dad would say the same thing (1930-2017). To him, a cheeseburger cost a nickel! Change (and inflation) is a part of our existence.
The ones now have cameras everywhere and signs that say you can only eat for 30 minutes. Brutal. And now self serve soda fountains will soon be gone.
That was so sweet of your mom to drive you to McDonald's over 3 decades later.
Wholesome isn't it?? 👍🏿❤️
We love moms!!!❤
That’s why I like this video. She still drove them instead of them driving her.
4 decades*
@@silverloveguns they did say “over 3 decades” to be fair :p
I've gotta say... Eric's Mom looks great at 70. She looks healthier and has a great sense of humor. Maybe getting Eric out of her house has given her back years of good health and removed buckets of stress. 😉
She is 70??? wow
*•°•☆She's always looked gorgeous!☆•°•*
The time before my existence 😃 they're great vlogger, fck off smartphones today 😃
I know right??? She still looks like she is in her late 50's! She must've done a great job in taking care of her health 😊
U goofy
I love that y'all are 40+ years old and she's still telling you not to do what she's doing and worries about being a bad driver role model. It's so wholesome 🥹💗
Wasn't she breaking the law....? She needs to be in prison
Mothers never stop mothering.
@logicalsane snitch
OMG Eric's mother is adorable. AND the fact that these two still have the same enthusiasm and friendship is fantastic!!!
Great she's still around.
she's not that old @@teijaflink2226
They documented everything back in 1989. Now, they come back 33 years later. They waited 33 years for this and their friendship is still going strong. I give my respect to these people
spongebob squarepants
Me too bro, massive respect!
I'm 33 as of writing this (born in 89) and to be friends that long is incredible to me.
Lol they didn't wait for anything.......
They're just fortunate to have all that footage still in pretty good condition around, means to make an entire RUclips channel around haha :)
You’re weird
The cashier from 1989, her smile....so nice and genuine. That's missing in today's fast food. And the 1989 pancakes compared to today.....wow!
it's missing today, period
Yeah back when all Americans were brainwashed by capitalism. Now only some are !
shrinkflation is the reason why those pancakes have shrunk
@@rubytuesday4379 Lol not in Sweden
I'm pretty sure she only smiled cause she saw a kid with a camcorder recording her
I don't know why I'm crying. This is so insanely wholesome.
Always sad, remembering the past...
These 2 dudes totally remind me of my friend Ron and I back in 1989. With their mother being just like my mother. Driving us to mcdonald's and shit. Lol. Ron and I were both metalheads as well. Same exact age as these 2 back in 1989.
😂
bruh
It was so smart of you to video tape that back in 89. The older McDonald's was much better. Proof not all things get better with time
At 49yrs old, I never thought in a million yrs I would be watching someone else home movies and enjoying it.
I'm 26 and taking notes lol
You were in Grade 10/11. Deeeeecent
Because this camcorder is the next thing to a time machine :)
Same 🥰
McDonald's in the 80s and McDonald's today seem to be two, completely different restaurants!!
They weren't. McDonald's in the 1980s and McDonald's now both suck.
the future sucks
@@mirlo-rojo we are doomed!
Facts
For a Chinese,M ,it’s a window to know US ,like watching Hollywood movie.not just a food chain 🎉😂
So, I lost my mom a few months ago, and honestly, lifes been tough, lifes been numb since then. This video has helped put a bit of a smile on my face, your mother is a gem of a human being. Thank you for sharing these memories with the world, it's touched me this morning probably more than you ever thought it could, especially when originally filming in 1989.
I’m sorry for your lost. Lost my dad last year too. Life is tough sometimes. I still can’t believe is real.
@@estebancruz6194 I feel ya, it's those moments, where you see something they would enjoy, and you just want to reach out and tell them all about it. But you can't. So I talk to my wall, in the insane hope that she can somehow hear it.
@@timothylefebvre4095 Exactly. I usually look up to the sky and talk to him. I like to think he can hear me. Nostalgia hits really hard sometimes tho. I guess we have to keep going & hope that one day we will see them again. But wish I could go back the late 80s early 90s. Wish you the best. Greetings from Los Angeles.
We Turks say life is mortal. I lost my mom 3 years ago and reading your comment brought tears to my eyes again. It took me over a year to process the whole thing. Eeryone should spend as much time as possible with their mother. Because at some point they won't be there anymore. And no one, absolutely no one, will love you as much as your own mother or father. Unfortunately, we only truly understand what it means to lose someone you've known for as long as you can remember when you've lost that very special person
What's a Human being?
One of the most heartwarming videos on RUclips. Few days back I watched the first video, today I randomly found this. As a guy who is now 50 and has problems to become older, this video hits so hard.
Greetings from Germany.
I always suggest this to people who are getting "older" because they worry.. but try learning BJJ! :)
I just turned 50 too. Tough to deal with. Lots of regrets and what ifs. Clock is ticking
The Mom is adorable. She gives off such a positive vibe.
45 year old man and I almost shed a tear when cashier from the 80s smiled I remember the chaotic fun atmosphere watching the burgers slide down the rack. Fast forward to now and there is a grey tiled wall blocking everything looks like a prison. Your mom is awesome
That smile was so forced, and sad to see, I agree with how the place looks horrible now, but still most of us working service then were not giving very sincere smiles
@@jarrarwinks8470 u never know her smile could’ve be sincere
I don't think it's that big of a deal. If they smile at you or not.
@@windowsxp4322looked more like the smile you give when someone puts you into a position to do something so you make an awkward face
@@jarrarwinks8470 yea
You guys are blessed, hang onto that friendship. I had that but unfortunately he passed at 27. It's all so fragile, never take it for granted.
Aww I’m so sorry to hear that. I’m 30 and from the U.K. let’s be friends. Unfortunately I don’t have any of these memories because I was a shy person who has anxiety so I never had any real close friends the ones I did have all left me too 😢😢😢. I wish we could go back to the 90s though. I have a great mum too like the lady in this video! My mum is 64 now
Friendship is important but most grow apart
@@jharr6250Look ahead, you are still young.
@@jharr6250Film your time and you will have fun in 30 years.
I grew up in the 70s and 80s and I would give anything to have my Mom back. so many great memories with her and my friends too. Cherish your MOM!
Amen
I will not Cherish a Breeder.
@@KyleEvra A breeder? So... you're being paid to post this from where, china, india, your moms basement?
Not everyone has a good relationship with family members though
The amount of happiness I felt when watching 3 complete strangers go to McDonald's can't be expressed by words

Eric’s Mom is such a Jewel. He’s so lucky to have her as a Mom. Such a sweet and funny lady!
My grandma doesnt hold a candle to her kindess
My grandma is the kind of lady to penny pinch and feel like youre a suicide kamikaze test dummy every time she drives
Just turned 75
Cherish and spend time with your Mom's. I would trade anything in the world to still have mine
This randomly came up on my RUclips as a suggestion. What a lovely simple story, mixing the footage from 1989 with present day. Really nice to see your friendship has lasted decades.
I agree. This was wonderful.
same
this is the shit youtube was originally made for
Give it another 33 years for them to make the next video in 2055
Hopefully mom is still around just pick her up from the nursing home
Then this would be very legendary
Also their grandchildren have go keep up the tradition of going to macdonalds every 33 years
nostalgia is dangerous thing. It makes you sad and happy both at the same time.
This was really a trip. I was 14 in 89. Thanks for sharing!
me 12
"Can we order from the human please?" I love your moms energy. I was feeling anxious all day and this video got me to relax a bit, thank you!
Hey i hope you are doing well buddy take care of yourself!
@@Me3iane I'm feeling better after a nice sleep, i appreciate it!
@@untetheredmoon6971 That's good to hear i hope you have a good day :)
@@Me3iane thank you, you as well 😎
I laughed at that line, genuinely funny!
The Mom comes across as such a sweet, genuine lady. God love her heart ❤️
Yeah, it's awesome she even agree to drive them for this video.
I would hug your mom, she is so sweet. Great sport to recreate it.
I grew up in Huntsville and that McDonalds was our hangout on Friday and Sat nights in the mid 80’s. People would just circle the parking lot blasting their stereos and looking for dates. We also hung out in the Murphy’s Mart parking lot across the street. Good times, thanks for the video memories!
It is amazing how quickly the years go by.
I was 12 in 1989, about your age, I suppose. Yet, from 1989, it just seems to have gone so quickly. Like you get bogged down in finishing middle school, finishing high school, finishing college, establishing a career, finding a woman to marry, going through the dating, the engagement, the wedding, followed by more working in a monotonous job, along with raising children, that it just goes by without you really much figuring that you are over halfway finished with your life.
I am now 45, but when I was 42 and the doctor said I was getting old, it seemed surreal. I guess the gray beard, baldness, aches and pains and less agility prove it, but it doesn't seem like it should be this soon.
Just looking at your mom then, who was like almost ten years younger than I am now, and seeing that she is now 70, it puts into perspective just how short life really is.
Cherish the time with your mom. Both of my parents have passed and I wish I could spend more time with them.
Me too...I'm feeling old! I'm 47...time flies by after 40! My dad passed 4 years ago....my mom is 73. Miss my youth ! We grew up in a better era too...the 80s and early 90s....re internet world.
I grew up in the 80s and 90s, too. 43 and will be 44 at the end of Feb. So, 44 is nearly here hopefully. Not that I am happy to be getting older, but I hope that I will not be ded in that almost 3 month period of time and--from what I can tell--I rarely, if ever feel sickly(although I am T2 diabetic). And, I did have some decent times there(first b-day party that I remember was there). That being said, I know innocence is bliss, but anyone heard of Mickey D's stories hueman flessh and perishless food?! Though I ate there aplenty in the 1st 7/8 of my life: since I found out who they were, I do not plan on eating there ever again!
@@phildodson6141 My dad passed five years ago, and my mom passed ten years ago. My mom didn't even get to see my children and only saw one of her grandchildren, my brother's son. My dad saw all of his grandchildren, but because I was an older dad, the oldest was four years old when he passed. She remembers him, but my youngest daughter doesn't. She knows him only by pictures.
I do prefer that time. The world is so evil now. I think we are in the end times. The governments have been taken over by principalities of evil.
I much prefer the music, shows, movies, etc. of the 90s to today. Nearly every pop song I get an earful of sounds like crap. The crap the young adults listen to and like sounds awful, void of using instruments. No real talent, just a mass produced pile of dung. It is why I don't listen to it. I have heard of maybe five good pop songs in the past five years, and that is it. Country is deteriorating as a genre, too, though the rot set in at a later time than it did with pop. Rock is hardly even given airtime, and what I do hear is subpar to the stuff of the 80s and 90s.
People used to make fun of groups like Nelson, but honestly, they sound ten times better than anything you hear today. Bon Jovi, Firehouse, etc were all superior to what we have today. Today's music is becoming increasingly garbage.
One genre is good, Christian praise and worship, and along with the good message, the talent is far superior to those in pop.
@@pattrell5257 Yes, I have heard of them using human meat from aborted babies, and from the homeless. I can't confirm it, but since hearing someone connected to them say that, I choose not to eat there any longer. If I get fast food, I will get Wendy's, Culver's, or Chick-Fil-A.
Keep your immune system strong going in through winter. My brother is a diabetic and nearly died from covid last year in December, but that could have been avoided if the corrupt hospital would have treated him properly with antibiotics and steroids when he first went in. They let it go on for like another week till he was at a point of near death. Thankfully, God pulled him through, and we saw a miracle after I sent out a mass call for prayer. Vitamin D and Vitamin C are really important.
I'm prediabetic, so I also need to watch what I eat better than I do. I also had covid, "delta variant", and I was sick for about two months. Had pneumonia, but it wasn't as bad as my brother.
I'm convinced that covid is a "by-0-wepin", intended to be the scare tactic to get the "jabba juice", another "wepin".
@@willp.8120 jeez man so sorry about your parents but I remember when I was just starting kindergarten back in 2006 & now 2022 (almost 2023) I'm a 21 year old in college, both of my parents are almost 60 years old and it's just sad seeing how time really flies by so fast, I'm obviously still young but before I know it I'm going to be 30 😬😬 but I guess that's what gives life meaning, that your time is short in this world and you just gotta make the most of it.
Ok y’all. We need a video of mom at guitar center now! The world needs that.
🤣🎸🤘
Yeah I'm not even joking we NEED it!
Definately
Yes please! :D
@@EricDarrell Yes!
My wife and I have said before that the McDonalds that we grew up with in the 80's and 90's were so much colorful, the park outside and inside the restaurant, and the stools with the hamburger designs. Now McDonalds today look so depressing and feels like a prison. lol
Facts
When mom went the wrong way was the realist and funnest part of the trip.They must have felt like kids again !
I can feel the nostalgia they felt through the screen. For being 33 years, they’ve all aged very well!
I definitely agree. I was 5 going on 6 years old in 1989.
Very, my thoughts exactly
They did age very well. Hard to believe 1989 was a third of a century ago now!!! 😮
@@PraveenSriram 👌👌Very well indeed and no way does the mom look 70! She looks brilliant 😍
@@RetroReminiscing if the mother’s mother is still alive she would be in her mid 90s. My moms mom is still alive and will turn 95 years old next month!!
It's so cool that you can reconstruct stuff like this with your best friend.
I really wish this would go viral so we could find the original
Cashier or maybe her family or children would see it! That would be the icing on the cake!
Cute video. In 1989 I was 24. Today I am 58 and I remember how McDonald’s looked like back then. How time flies. Thanks for this video. It’s good to have friends that stick around for a long time.
I am blown away because I randomly watched the original video from 1989 just a few days ago. All the while, I was thinking how great it would be if you were still friends and wondering how you two looked. Now this pops up on my recommended list! I'm only a few minutes in, but I HAD to comment. I'm so glad you're still friends. I'm around your age & didn't own a video camera back then but this is the kind of video I'm sure I would have made too! Ok back to the video . . .
That's awesome, I'm glad you found us! -E
In 1990, we filmed out wrestling matches and our trip to the McDonald's afterward, too.
SAME 🤣
Same
I'm so glad you guys are all still.alive and we'll that thrills me stay healthy and strong
This is so wholesome, sad, and eye opening at the same time. So happy you brought your mom and the fact of how people get old.
yea I can't figure out why sad ? maybe the reminiscing the nostalgia
@@user-xv7eb5ct9fit’s either that or remembering how fast time flies and people get older
Not sad at all - happy throughout. Mom didn't get old...she looks d@mn incredible!
@@SlMONSAYS She must be diligent with her Zoomba classes or Aqua-aerobics, lol!
Sad??
I love this so much. Thank you for filming all of it and putting it together so many years later. This is such a fun wholesome video :)
This is one of the most heartwarming things I’ve watched in a long ass time. Thank you ❤
That made me tear up when she said “I feel like I’m visiting with y’all and it buys me another week” 🥲bless her heart.
I wish you could find the cashier. Her shy smile when she saw the camera was so cute, and she seemed like such a kind lady. I would like to know if she vividly remembers that day or not 🙂.
I was thinking the same thing, she probably would get a kick out her seeing herself on video from 1989 lol
Now the employees hardly look at you at these places, behave like your a pain in their a*s and can’t speak a lick of English just to piss u off even more
I thought the same, and the way her bangs were showing under the cap was SO '80s it made my heart melt :)
My guess is that she would have zero recollection 33 years later. But it would be fun to see her reaction. This mom is adorable.
I think she would remember because they were recording…
This mom is absolutely hilarious! And this isn't even scripted she's just that funny and driving on One Way road the wrong way and still telling them boys don't do this it reminds me so much of my grandma. She's a legend! I would love to hang out with her she has me laughing so much.
This is the video I needed. Thanks, guys, for putting a huge smile on my face this morning!
Very cool how you guys recreated the video from 1989. It gives me ideas for my old home videos from the 80's. Well done!! 👏
Kudos to the mom, who hasn't aged a day. This makes me want to make a McD's run
Hasn't age a day? 🙄 why do people say dunb sh*t like that? 🤦🏽♂️
@@trigfizzle6876 obviously I was speaking in spirit and stamina. Some people are 35 and act like a 70 year old. She hasn't lost any of her faculties, and comes off exactly as she was 34 years ago.

Scary 😱
You're lucky to have a mom like this, she exudes awesome vibes
This was a great interview with you guys and mom :) What an awesome nostalgic trip.
This is so wholesome. I wish, in some more years, I could go back to some of my childhood sites. Just like you did, trying not only to recreate a memory but to take a glimpse at the magnitud of time-passing.
As a kid that grew up going to McDonald's in the late eighties and early nineties I absolutely love this.
same I'm in my 30s now dose anyone recall the Ronald McDonald clown way back when plus the other characters names I don't recall the other characters names? sorry for any misspells or mistakes in spelling.
@@bendavis6722 I mainly remember the Hamburgler and Grimace. There was also the bird chick.
Life and time are such bittersweet things. It’s beautiful to look back, but it also feels like a kick in the gut in some ways.

@@abathens you still lived the best times, be happy because it happened!
this is so heartwarming, its cool to see your mom taking you back just so you can do a follow up video.
The fact that they put a time limit on how long you can sit and eat your food is crazy
Pretty sure thats just there for people just hanging out causing a bunch of noise. Im pretty sure if you arent bothering anyone theyll leave you alone. They just need a sign to point to if needed
yeah ive never seen that before. but i figure it's cuz ppl like to get ratchet at fast food restaurants. all kinds of crap happens in them
I got depressed when Mom said hello to the cashier and didn’t get a reply. Just a blank stare. Definitely 2022 Vs 1989.
@@finster1968 She looked nervous probably because she saw them recording her.
@@thefitnesslife4988 - There could be some truth to that. By contrast though, the employee at McDonald’s in 1989 noticed the camera and flashed a big smile.
This was a precious video! You boys are to be congratulated for keeping footage from 33 yrs ago!
Very impressive re-creation of so many scenes on-the-fly. Nostalgia and fun at the same time. And all the protagonists are still alive. Big thanks to your mom whose spirit is as lively and young as she was back then for being part of this video.
The girl at the counter in 1989: 😃
The girl at the counter in 2022: 🤨
That was awesome. Watching your first video on here which you recorded in 1989 to then see your more recent video of you both going to the same McDonald's with your Mum 33 years later. It's amazing how much has changed! (Viewer from Aus 🇦🇺).
This is the most endearing thing I’ve ever seen. Love it. Mad respect to your friendship.
Can we acknowledge how great they all still look!
PLEASE! -D
Nothing EVER will compare to this decade! The 1980's... we miss you!!! 🥺
My favorite decade !
Here here.....born in '82
Amen born in '78 and I loved the 80s as a kid.
92 here 😱
I wasn't even born in the 80s (born in 92) but I could easily tell the last two epic decades were the 80s and the 90s. The 2000s is when everything started to take a turn for the worst! An irreversible turn for the worst I must say, thanks to the internet, smart phones and social media!
I loved this soo much! I was feeling nostalgic and wanted to watch some sort of "old times filming" and this was perfect to watch (Part 1 and 2)..and the fact that you're still friends had me smiling throughout the video! I think im going to binge on your other youtube videos now :)
I just LOVE your mother in this!! this made ME feel childhood nostalgia for sure.....THANK YOU FOR THIS!! You guys are great!
2 grown up adults being treated like kids again. I just wanna to live that again at least once. Such lucky guys.
Happy Birthday to your mom! I never would have guessed she was 70 if she hadn't mentioned the year she was born!
This makes me so Happy with this Video. So glad that you both have been friends forever. Your mom seems to have a great time with this Memorable Trip. I absolutely love this. ❤️
I freaking love this series! I've got a lockup with a load of old tapes I made back in the old country I cant wait to do something similar with! Just the only Macky D packaging takes me way back! Thank you for this, guys!
In 2006, McDonald's had the renovation that you see now in all their restaurants called "Forever Young" to be appealing to older customers like us. The older McDonald's that you saw int the 80's was a Ray Kroc design that was implemented in 1968. So by the 1990's when you saw the bright yellow roofs and red paint it was just a band aid before the redesigns that you see today were going to be implemented.
@@imrinanihow do you think your parents felt eating McDonald’s in the 50s, going to a McDonald’s in the 80s. They thought it had all the life sucked out of it in the name of modernity. In 30 years from now people will be reminiscing about the McDonald’s design from the 2020s. Times change but the story stays the same.
I don't see how the new look in McDonald's is appealing to old people. I don't know any old people that would eat that garbage anyway.
@@imrinani The feeling your talking about is exactly why I will never renovate my house that was built in 1975. I keep it exactly as it was, it's comfortable. I hate all this gay looking modern style garbage.
Yeah but sadly even that renovation, which wasn't that bad, has been replaced by the current dull grey lofty ikea nordic ski lodge look....
Awe 🥹 I started crying because my mother would do the same with me taking me to McDonald’s when I was a child. Now she’s in the other realm. What a wonderful experience redoing this again.
This is one of the most heartwarming RUclips videos I’ve seen in years
This is wonderful-you guys are the best!! Your mom is such a lovely lady! Glad you could revisit and rewalk your steps together just like old times! 👍🏻🥞🍟🍔
Your mom is such a sweetheart! "Can we order from the human please?" She seems so lovely, you boys are blessed! 😃
This was so wholesome. Felt really good, and I know it made Eric's mom's heart so happy.
9:38 I live in France and I can guarantee you this is a cultural shock right there !😲 If such a sign was put in a restaurant in France, people would immediately protest, rip it off the wall or they'd most likely just leave the restaurant. I can't conceive seing that kind of sign here.
Especially for a 30 minute time limit !!!😱That's barely enough to get the real conversation starting !
I don't patronize fast food places but then again, we don't have nice things in the United States due to corporate greed. I can't remember the last time I was in a McDonalds, perhaps back in the 1980's or so.
This was so fun to watch. Thank you for taking us all on your nostalgic journey to McDonalds!
This was so much fun to watch. Eric, your mom is so charming! McDonald's is so unfun and non-kid friendly now! That 30 minutes to consume food sign was just... sad! Eric and Darrell, you have done it again!
A wild Larry! Fancy seeing you here bud :)
@@henn402 Hey Henry! Pleasure seeing tou here!
THE SIGN is an obvious holdover from the Covid days. Many restaurants (and laws) only allowed 30-60 minutes to avoid spreading the virus.
Newer McDonald's restaurants don't even have playplaces! McD's doesn't really see kids as their target audience anymore; instead they seem to cater to teens more now.
@@christiangonzales7429 exactly. Who the hell wants to play with wakanda toys? Sheesh bring fantastic four and batman like we had back then.
We love this SO much!! Your mom is a sweetie. I don’t like ordering from a screen either, ugh. Take me back to good old 1989!
Such an incredible video. I just love the nostalgia and comparison to present time. I was 2 in 1989. It's kind of emotional to see how much time passes.
Awesome video guys. I watched the old vid and then this one; its pretty cool to see the comparisons and the changes of both you guys and the environment
1989 : Hello can i get your order ? (With smile)
2022 : Your order ? (no smile and quick answer expected)
Feels like we took somehow the wrong path and get into the wrong future.
My thoughts exactly 💯!
For you Not a My mcdonalds
My dad worked at a Pizza Hut about 48 years ago and the Pizza Hut is still there we drove past it to confirm couple years ago I’d really love to make a video of him going inside and revisiting it after 50 years…
There is a red-roof Pizza Hut still in operation in Houston that has been there since the 70s.
The one in my town is a Mexican restaurant now. Still looks like a Pizza Hut, but it's painted Orange and green.
@@chargerfan2 In my area, it is also a Mexican restaurant, but the roof is gray, I think.
Do it
You can also tell so easily when it used to be a Pizza Hut
Thanks Darrell, us nostalgic people can relate to these vids BUT not all of us took the old vids so not all of us have the ability to do what you have done, to combine the old and new. Thanks so much Darrell, u made my night
This was so wholesome and relatable. Thank u for this cause I'm smiling after a bad day and finding a happy relatable video brings so much joy.
Man, I miss the 80's!! Thanks for sharing what I remember growing up. So freaking cool that you guys recreated the video almost the same. Happy 70th birthday to your Mom!!!
Very nostalgic!
Happy 70th to your Mom! I was 6 In 1989!
Happy Birthday to their mom!
@@plawson8577 I was 1 & 2 years old in 1989.
God I'm so old it's scary... the 40s keep getting closer 😔
I was 22 in ‘89. Dang, I could have had a kid back then, and filming it myself! That would been a trip if “my kid” and I did a video 33 years later.
9:06 This is so heartbreaking, visit your damn momma more! 🥺😐 I have a horrible nonexistent relationship with my mom (if you can even call her that) so i'd kill to have a mom who actually loved, cared and wanted to see me.. be grateful 🤣
Amen! I was thinking maybe they live in another state or mom was exaggerating a bit. I'm so grateful for my wonderful mother and see her as often as i can. I'm sorry to hear about your mom.
I think they are very greatful, I'm sorry that your not close with your mom, I feel bad for you. Be Excellent.
Yeah, but it will be ok
I'm a '94 baby so a bit late to the party but would have loved to have grown up in the 80s. Glad you guys got the chance to go together again
So lovely that you did this. Doesn't it highlight how when you're a child, every outing and experience just feels kind of fun and magical in a way. Beautiful that you got to revisit this, and I watched with a big smile on my face and a slight tear forming sometimes!
I lost my mom when I was 25 age 47. You are blessed to still have her! I remember some of these wonderful trips and carried my camera around as well. Great video guys!
I'm so sorry for your loss.
So sorry.
I've been watching NDEs lately and I think souls do survive and we reunite with loved ones. I lost my brother when he was 27, (I was 25), we were best friends...
@@silentbullet2023 We are born to live forever, I saw the word L O V E fly across the sky at the back of my house about 30 years ago, the word was formed by birds flying in formation, my father saw it first and called me to the back of the house, i will never forget it, it's in the bible in Luke 21 i found out about 10 years after this, we are living in the end times for sure.
My god! My deepest condolences! May your mom rest in peace
I am 45 years old now I was 12 in 89 this IS amazing...thanks for the time warp...I would give my entire world to be able to go back to those days. Metallica and Iron Maiden and all the "BIG HAIR" bands was awesome, even Bon Jovi
Damn right dude! Playing NES with my older brother while Metallica blasted in the background.
They're all still active touring and producing new music! Go to their channels and catch up!
That was so awesome! Mom was a good sport then, and she’s a great sport now😊👍❤️. You guys are SO blessed to have her and the memories. Thanks for the memories
This was so fun to watch. Thank you !
The nostalgia on this video is almost overwhelming....good job!
It made me cry a gallon of tears since my 62 year old mom is currently in the hospital and I haven’t heard from her since Tuesday
Your mom is so awesome. " I'm still trying to lose that 30lbs" was pure gold!
That's so awesome to think you have footage from that long ago. Your childhood was during mine too and to think of how common it will be to have old footage with all the new generations is just baffling. You guys are vlogger legends and you're creating a new "vlog challenge" for people now children to mimic what you're doing here reliving old footage. Awesome stuff. Mom has aged well too she looks great.
Every now and then I stumble on a gem of a channel like this, and it makes my day.
I love old friendships like this
Love how awesome the mom is she is just so sweet
„Can we order from a human, please!" This could easily be a slogan on a t-shirt ;-) or instead of „we" simply „i"
Man, this video is awesome. The much beloved trip to McDonald's. We gotta be close to the same age, I'm 48. The 80's were a wonderful time. Ninja Turtles, comodore 64's, hair metal and arcades. I loved all of it!
I had an Atari 2600.
